Post-Battle Reflection, Seeking Breakthrough

Hu Shu watched the busy figures of everyone around him, feeling a mix of relief and worry. The path to finding ancient Divine Artifacts and dealing with fierce beasts was full of unknowns. Could they truly succeed? Just then, a Human Race member responsible for gathering information rushed over, their face alight with excitement, seemingly bringing important clues. Hu Shu hurried to meet them, a new challenge and opportunity about to be presented to the Human Race.

Panting heavily, the newcomer couldn't contain their excitement. "Clan Leader, we discovered some strange tracks in a hidden valley, like those left by a powerful Magic Treasure. It might be related to an ancient Divine Artifact!" Hu Shu's eyes brightened, and he immediately decided to convene everyone for a discussion.

Inside the Human Race's assembly hall on Shouyang Mountain, the atmosphere was somber. Hu Shu stood in the hall, surveying everyone, and said gravely, "Although we repelled the enemy in this battle, our losses were heavy. Relying solely on the Invincible Domain System and occasional mysterious aid is not a long-term solution. We must become stronger for the Human Race to establish itself in this Primordial World." Everyone nodded in agreement, their eyes showing determination.

"I've decided to further explore the potential of the Invincible Domain System. At the same time, we will strengthen the cultivation and development of our own Human Race." Hu Shu's gaze swept across the crowd. "Among our Human Race, there are many individuals with high talent. I plan to organize you into an Elite Squad to explore more dangerous areas and seek opportunities to improve our strength."

A stir went through the crowd, with many showing eager expressions. At this moment, a young Human Race member stepped forward and declared loudly, "Clan Leader, I volunteer to join the Elite Squad! I want to contribute to the strength of our Human Race!" Following their lead, several others responded, willing to follow Hu Shu's path.

Hu Shu looked at these faces full of youthful energy and fighting spirit, a warmth surging in his heart. He said, "This mission is extremely dangerous. You must be fully prepared. You need not only strong power but also unwavering will." Afterward, Hu Shu began selecting the members of the Elite Squad, choosing candidates based on their cultivation, talent, and combat performance.

The selected members wore expressions of pride, knowing this was Hu Shu's trust in them and the mission entrusted to them by the Human Race. Hu Shu led the Elite Squad members to an open area and began their initial training.

"When exploring unknown territories, teamwork is crucial. You must trust each other and cooperate to handle any unforeseen circumstances." Hu Shu demonstrated some simple cooperative techniques as he spoke. The Elite Squad members studied intently, constantly adjusting their positions and ways of cooperating.

During training, Hu Shu noticed that the coordination between some members was not yet seamless. He patiently guided them, "You, when attacking, pay attention to leaving defensive space for your teammates; you, when defending, constantly monitor your teammates' status and provide timely support." After some training, the members' cooperation gradually became more proficient.

Meanwhile, Hu Shu did not forget the other affairs of the Human Race. He assigned some Human Race members to continue searching for clues about ancient Divine Artifacts, while others were to strengthen their cultivation and improve their strength to deal with the threat of fierce beasts that could appear at any time.

Time slipped away amidst intense training and preparation. Those gathering information from outside brought back more vague clues about the Misty Mountain Range, where it was said many unknown secrets were hidden, possibly holding the key to improving the Human Race's strength.

Upon hearing this news, Hu Shu fell into deep thought. The Misty Mountain Range was fraught with danger; venturing in rashly could lead to disaster for the Elite Squad. However, it was also a rare opportunity for the Human Race to improve its strength. Missing this chance might make the future development of the Human Race even more arduous.

After careful consideration, Hu Shu decided to have the Elite Squad prepare thoroughly and then head to the Misty Mountain Range to explore when the time was right. He told the Elite Squad members, "The future of our Human Race rests on your shoulders. When you go to the Misty Mountain Range, be extremely careful. If you encounter danger, do not be reckless; prioritize your safety." The Elite Squad members responded in unison, "Yes! Clan Leader, rest assured, we will not fail our mission!"

As the departure date approached, the Elite Squad's training became even more rigorous. They conducted combat drills in the forests of Shouyang Mountain, simulating various dangerous scenarios. Hu Shu observed closely from the side, pointing out their shortcomings from time to time.

"Pay attention, when facing multiple enemies, form an effective encirclement. Don't fight individually," Hu Shu shouted loudly. The Elite Squad members quickly adjusted their tactics, gradually mastering the skills to deal with multiple opponents.

During training breaks, Hu Shu also consulted with the Mysterious Rogue Cultivator, discussing how to better enhance the Elite Squad's strength. The Mysterious Rogue Cultivator suggested, "You could incorporate some special movement techniques into their training to enhance their agility, allowing them to dodge quickly when danger arises." Hu Shu found this advice excellent and immediately had the Elite Squad members learn it.

Days passed, and the Elite Squad's strength improved significantly. Their coordination became more seamless, and they applied various combat techniques more skillfully. Hu Shu felt a slight sense of relief watching the Elite Squad grow.

Finally, the day of departure arrived. The morning sun cast a golden glow upon Shouyang Mountain. The Elite Squad members, clad in light gear and holding their weapons, stood before the crowd with high spirits.

Hu Shu stepped forward, looking into each member's eyes, and said solemnly, "You are about to embark on an unknown journey, fraught with hardship. But I believe you will find the key to improving the Human Race's strength and truly protect the Human Race in future crises. The hope of the Human Race lies in your hands!"

The Elite Squad members clenched their fists, their eyes filled with firm belief. They turned and, with determined steps, marched towards the Misty Mountain Range. The Human Race members watched their receding backs, silently praying for their safe return and for them to bring new hope to the Human Race.

At this moment, on Shouyang Mountain, a gentle breeze rustled the leaves, as if whispering the Human Race's aspirations for the future. Hu Shu, gazing in the direction the Elite Squad had departed, felt both worry for them and a surge of anticipation. He knew well that the future of the Human Race rested on this endeavor.
