Next, Ye Hong asked each of the five people to choose a defensive combat skill; an offensive combat skill; a physical combat skill; and a concealment skill.
"After you practice and become proficient in these skills, please return the skills to me! I will put all the skills into the Shadow Tower Treasure Room. I will inform you in the future who will manage the Shadow Tower Treasure Room. .
In the following days, you will practice the skills you received this time seriously. In three months, I will take all of you into the mountains to practice. You'd better all practice an offensive combat skill!
Elder Qing, when you go back, prepare a list of all the current members of the Shadow Tower for me, with their age and cultivation level noted on it. This is my address in the city. Give it to me as soon as possible! "As he said that, Ye Hong handed a note to Xiao Qing.
Ye Hong said again: "Elder Feng! Come out with me! Let the others go back to practice!"
Ye Hong and Miaomiao took Xiao Feng to an alley not far from Shadow Tower, took off his mask, and asked Xiao Feng to take off his outfit.
"Xiao Feng, your cultivation level has improved so quickly. Do you feel any physical discomfort? Are there any problems with your cultivation?"
Xiao Feng said: "Brother Ye! I don't have any physical discomfort, and the breakthrough is very easy. Everything seems to fall into place."
Ye Hong asked: "The reason why you can practice so quickly is because of your special physique. This is also your own opportunity. Can you tell me why you chose to practice again? You must know that you are now at the eighth level of the Soul Tribulation Realm. Soon you will be able to break through to the golden elixir stage and become extraordinary from now on!"
"Brother Ye, didn't you say that? The higher the level of mental skills, the faster your cultivation will improve. I used to practice only the yellow-level low-level mental skills, but now I have changed to the earth-level mental skills. I believe I will be able to practice again soon!" Xiao Feng's eyes were full of determination.
Ye Hong said: "Xiao Feng, it's good for you to think so! Please return the book of cultivation methods you chose to me!"
"Brother Ye! Did I say something wrong? Why should I take it back!" Xiao Feng looked puzzled and confused.
"Do you want to exchange it for a better one? If not, forget it!"
"I want it!" Xiao Feng smirked and handed the cultivation method back to Ye Hong.
Then Ye Hong took out a heaven-level low-grade cultivation method and handed it to Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng was immediately happy when he saw that it was a heaven-level cultivation method.
"I've given you something! Don't just take it and do nothing! The future development of Shadow Tower will still require your efforts and contributions! I haven't seen you for more than three years, how are you doing with your combat skills! Let Miaomiao and you Let’s pass! Test your cultivation status.”
"Brother Ye, I have learned the combat skills you gave me, but I am afraid that I will hurt Miss Miaomiao!" Xiao Feng said with some worry.
"You don't have to be afraid, just let go and fight! Miao Miao's cultivation level is much higher than yours!"
Xiao Feng was surprised after hearing this. He thought that his cultivation level had improved quickly enough, but he didn't expect that Miaomiao's cultivation level was higher than his own. Then Ye Hong and the others came to a forest outside the city, and Miaomiao and Xiao Feng began to fight. For the sake of fairness, Ye Hong specifically asked Miaomiao to change the weapon to an iron sword. Even so, Xiao Feng couldn't survive a few blows from Miaomiao's hand before being beaten down.
"Xiao Feng! Do you think Miaomiao can't beat her because her cultivation level is higher than yours?"
Xiao Feng nodded, and then Ye Hong asked Miaomiao to suppress her cultivation to the eighth level of the Soul Tribulation Realm before competing with Xiao Feng. However, Xiao Feng still lost after a few rounds.
Ye Hong came to Xiao Feng and said, "Do you know the reason for your defeat?"
Xiao Feng shook his head, looking puzzled.
"It's your lack of combat experience! There are many flaws when fighting."
When Ye Hong was in Tianjian City, when City Lord Deng guided Miao Miao in sword practice and fighting, Ye Hong would often watch by his side, so he also understood these things.
It was normal for Xiao Feng to be unable to defeat Miaomiao. Ye Hong had known this result for a long time. Not only had Miaomiao fought against monsters in the mountains, but she also had the guidance of an emperor-level expert like City Master Deng in Tianjian City. It is no longer what it used to be.
"Please also ask Brother Ye and Miss Miaomiao for guidance!" Xiao Fengsui pleaded.
"I will guide you in your training in the future, and you will also need to hone your combat skills. This has to be done slowly. You should go back and practice your mental skills again first!"
Later, Ye Hong also told Xiao Feng his address, so that he could go to him at any time if he had anything to do.
When Ye Hong and Miaomiao came back to Dihai City again, they spent money to buy a house in the city. Although the place was not big, there was no problem for a few people to live in it. Ye Hong didn't want to buy a house that was too big. , it’s too troublesome to clean.
Ye Hong first read the rules and regulations Xiao Qing gave him at his residence, and then made modifications to the existing system, deleting what should be deleted, completing what should be added, and adding many new regulations.
After a few days of thinking, the relatively complete first set of regulations for the Shadow Tower was completed. Next, Ye Hong made a detailed plan for the Shadow Tower based on his own ideas.
Miaomiao thought it was fun at first, watching Ye Hong write and draw, but then she got tired of watching and went to practice without bothering Ye Hong again.
During this period, Xiao Qing sent a roster to Ye Hong, and Ye Hong rewarded Xiao Qing with a fifth-level elixir, which was the reward he said he would give her last time. After Ye Hong explained the levels of the elixir to Xiao Qing, he understood The value of the fifth-level elixir made me instantly fall in love with the elixir in my hands.
Ye Hong checked the roster and found that there were quite a few people who had reached the Qi Condensation Realm, more than 400 people, but most of them were at the first level of the Qi Condensation Realm.
The number of people decreases as you go up, there are two at the fifth level of Qi Condensation Realm, and about ten people at the fourth level of Qi Condensation Realm. These people should all have good talents. Ye Hong planned to choose these dozen people as the first batch of people to enter the mountain range for training.
The problem now is that there are so many people entering the mountain range, and some of them are still relatively young, so it is difficult to enter the mountain entrance, so Ye Hong plans to go to the city lord's mansion to get a special pass first.
Ye Hong brought Miaomiao and the two of them to the city lord's mansion again. After the incident at the last wedding, the two of them met the city lord smoothly.
"Miss Miao, Mr. Ye! What's the matter with you coming this time?"
"City Master Zheng, I want to come and discuss a business deal with you. I wonder if City Master Zheng is interested!"
City Lord Zheng was a little confused and said: "Mr. Ye, what kind of business can I bother you to come and discuss in person? Please elaborate."
"To be honest, City Lord Deng actually wanted me and Miaomiao to come out to practice more and gain more knowledge and experience. Miaomiao and I traveled here and saw that Dihai City is close to the Fenglei Mountains, and the entrance to the mountains is not far outside the city.
I want to use this opportunity to open an Adventurers Association in Earthsea City to issue bounty tasks, issue tasks to people in need in the city, and provide a place for cultivators who come to Earthsea City to receive tasks.
It makes cultivators enter the mountains more purposefully, which can also improve the survival probability of cultivators and get a lot of rewards. It can achieve the purpose of training and earn a bounty, which will definitely attract a large number of cultivators. Those who come to Dihai City,
At that time, it will not only promote the economy of Dihai City and allow you, the city owner, to earn more tax revenue, but it will also make Dihai City famous, thereby expanding its scale and becoming a large city like Tianjian City. It is not impossible! . "
"Since Mr. Ye has such a good idea, why don't you just start the Adventurer's Association by yourself! Why do you come to me again? It doesn't seem like you need any help from me at all, right?"
Ye Hong said: "City Lord Zheng's words are wrong. I have this good idea, but I also need your support from City Lord Zheng. When the Adventurers Association becomes bigger and bigger, it is inevitable that some people will want to take a share of the pie.
As the host, City Master Zheng, I think it’s better to share this fast meat with City Master Zheng. After all, City Master Zheng and I are destined to be together, and your daughter-in-law is my friend. Of course, I have to think of you, City Master Zheng! "
City Lord Zheng also felt that what Ye Hong said was very reasonable. He would not lose anything by helping Ye Hong, and he could also gain the friendship of Tianjian City. Why not?
"Young Master Ye is really thoughtful and generous. I would like to thank Zheng! I will definitely support this Adventurers Association. I wonder if Mr. Ye still needs help?"
Ye Hong added: "City Lord Zheng, after the Adventurers Association is established, we can also issue bounties in it ourselves. This is also a way to make money. We can auction the treasures of heaven and earth in exchange for bounties to get more money.
If you want to auction, the interests of the Chamber of Commerce must be involved. I am thinking, City Lord Zheng, do you think it is better for us to open a chamber of commerce ourselves, or to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce of Dihai City? After all, you are the city lord of Dihai City. This You are still clearer about the interests between them.
If City Lord Zheng thinks it is better to cooperate with the Dihai City Chamber of Commerce, then I will listen to you. City Lord Zheng still has to get the majority of this benefit! "
City Lord Zheng suggested: "I prefer to cooperate directly with the Dihai City Chamber of Commerce. This will save a lot of trouble and save us trouble.
But Mr. Ye, you can't let me take the big head. How can I get more than you, Mr. Ye? I'd better take the small head! "
Ye Hong said casually: "It's okay! I actually don't care about that kind of profit. Otherwise, we can be 50/50, but I have to trouble City Lord Zheng to communicate with the Dihai City Chamber of Commerce!"
"There's no problem with this. Mr. Ye, just leave it to me!"
Ye Hong immediately said: "Oh! By the way! City Lord Zheng, please give me a batch of special passes for the entrance of the mountain range! This will make it easier for members of the Adventurers Association to enter and exit the mountain range in the future."
"There's no problem with this! I'll get it done for you in a few days! I wonder if Young Master Ye has chosen the land for the Adventurers Association now?"
"Not yet, does City Master Zheng have any recommendations?"
Then City Lord Zheng took out a map of Dihai City, unfolded it in front of Ye Hong, and took a closer look, "Mr. Ye, what do you think of this place? It's close to the city gate at the entrance of the mountain range, and it's not too far from the center of the city. And the place is big enough!”
Ye Hong nodded after looking at it and said, "Then choose this place! How much rent do you need? I'll give it to you now!"
City Lord Zheng pretended to be angry, "Young Master Ye! You've turned out to be an outsider now! Why should I give you any more money? This land will be rented to you for free! You are also for the development of Dihai City, so I still have to make this contribution!"
"Okay! Since City Lord Zheng is so generous, then I will be disrespectful!"
Then the two discussed some details. Miaomiao was a bit bored when she came here this time. She couldn't get involved in anything. She didn't understand what Ye Hong was going to do at all, so she could only pretend to listen attentively.
Miaomiao is still very curious about Ye Hong. She feels that Ye Hong can always think of things that she can't think of, and can always bring surprises to people, and she can't figure it out at all.
