The Choice of Chief Instructor

The harvest was better than expected!

Back in his hotel room, Xi Ye happily gazed at the large stack of contracts. He had received resumes from nearly a thousand people, and after comparing them, he had hired almost a hundred.

Among them, forty were instructors in basic disciplines, ten specialized in weapons, five specialized in berserker skills, and he was fortunate enough to recruit some excellent magic students, including those specializing in Arcane Specialization, Elemental Specialization, and even two rare students from the Divination Department and Demon Department.

All of them graduated from top universities, and the Demon Department and Arcane Specialization students even held Novice Mage Certificates. Xi Ye generously offered an initial salary of 15,000, and he provided other professions with initial salaries that matched the prices on his price list.

At this moment, Xi Ye felt like he had all the heroes in the world in his grasp, but after carefully calculating, he realized that he would have to pay hundreds of thousands in wages alone each month, and he immediately felt extremely distressed.

He decided that once he got back, he would make them work overtime to make sure they were worth the salary!!

Unfortunately, he didn't manage to recruit any Overcontroller interns, but that was normal. Overcontrollers were extremely scarce on the market these days, and major lords were scrambling for them. They were almost all snatched up during campus recruitment before they even graduated, so how could these trash lords get a turn?

Moreover, these types of majors were already expensive to study. Even the cheapest Bronze Race traditional craft mecha schools charged tuition fees that were dozens of times higher than ordinary majors, not to mention the noble-exclusive Arcane Mecha, Hex Mecha, and the Biological Mecha majors of the Elf and Demon races, whose tuition fees probably cost tens of millions each year, not including the money to buy your own mecha.

People who could afford this kind of money were generally not ordinary children and would never come to them for an interview.

If you wanted to recruit an Overcontroller, even if it wasn't from those top-tier prestigious schools, even a second-rate school, you would need to be a force with at least a level-five administrative star for students to even bother with you.

But Xi Ye wanted to train mecha pilots. In addition to increasing the enthusiasm of the Developer players in the base, it was necessary to cultivate his own mecha team as soon as possible. After all, whether it was defending against interstellar pirates or exploring some unknown and dangerous star regions, the power of mechas was very important.

He knew that training an Overcontroller was very expensive, but he wasn't worried. He had D-Earthlings with extremely high potential. With a tolerance of 90%, they could efficiently exert the ancient bloodline of the Developer. As long as he could provide a teaching route, these people would definitely learn no worse than those descendants of large families with purified genes!

Just as he was thinking, the AI prompted him that he had a new email. Xi Ye opened it and saw that it was a warrior head coach candidate recommended by the talent network!

After scanning the information, Xi Ye couldn't help but sigh. He had to say that although this talent network charged exorbitant fees, the people they found were quite good, at least they met his needs.

The talent network recommended a level-seven Naga from the Deep Sea Race and a level-eight warrior from the Anlier Family as head coach candidates.

The Naga required an annual salary of 500,000, plus the purchase of insurance and a housing fund of level four or higher, but he was only willing to sign a ten-year contract. If he was willing to provide him with advanced warrior training, he could consider signing a hundred-year contract, but the salary would be negotiated separately after obtaining an advanced title!

In comparison, the Titan warrior from the Anlier Family had higher salary requirements, starting at 700,000, and requiring an increase of at least 25% every five years.

But he had no training requirements and was willing to consider a hundred-year contract!

Xi Ye picked up the two files and pondered their respective advantages and disadvantages...

This Naga had a very good resume, graduated from a regular first-class warrior academy, was proficient in seven weapon specializations, and had cultivated Battle Qi to level nine. He was only over two hundred years old, which was rare for a Naga's lifespan. His aptitude was very good, but Xi Ye wasn't very interested.

The Naga race, as a branch of the elves, had a long history in martial arts inheritance, and compared to its elf counterparts, the Naga were more hardworking and had an excellent reputation among the major lord forces of the Federation. However, the disadvantage was that these people were more self-centered and rarely stayed with one force for long. They would usually jump ship without hesitation if they had a better opportunity, so their loyalty was lacking.

He was planning to recruit long-term employees this time, and he had no interest in ten-year temporary workers. As for the issue of investing in training, Xi Ye could only laugh. With the Naga's reputation, what was the difference between investing in them and throwing money into the water?

What's more, with the aptitude of the players in his base, he would definitely prioritize the local citizens for investment!

The second was the Titan warrior from the Anlier Family. The Anlier Family was a well-known warrior family that mainly cultivated Titan warriors with various Titan bloodlines. The headhunter introduced a high-level Green Titan who had suffered irreversible injuries in the arena. Even after surgery, it was still difficult to return to his peak state, so he was preparing to retire and find a force to be a coach and live out his days.

The advantages and disadvantages were also obvious. He graduated from a no-name university, spent decades in the arena, and was purely a practical fighter. This kind of non-teacher, lacking a formal education model, would be relatively rough in teaching, but Xi Ye was very tempted by his advantages.

First of all, he was a pure Green Titan, and he would definitely have advantages that other races could not compare to when teaching Green Titan players, because he himself understood the Green Titan structure very well.

The second was his ability, which was a dual cultivation of weapon specialization and berserker skills. This was very common in the arena, but rare in the teaching field, which was another considerable temptation for Xi Ye, because in this way, he would not have to specifically recruit a berserker specialization coach, which could save a lot of money.

Honestly, Xi Ye was more inclined towards the latter when comparing the two!

Although the former had good growth potential, Xi Ye didn't lack seedlings with good growth potential. He only needed some gardeners. Although the Green Titan said he was here to retire, Xi Ye just happened to lack this kind of retiree!

However, Xi Ye was not sure whether he could successfully recruit him, because the information said that the other party originally intended to find a planet above level six to settle down, have a good rest, and take care of his pregnant wife.

But clearly, they hadn't found one yet. After all, the Green Titan's crude teaching methods were obviously not suitable for most forces and races. And aside from the arena, few people would actually spend the energy to cultivate Green Titans like Xi Ye, which led to him not finding a suitable job for several months. Otherwise, he wouldn't have paid attention to a new lord like Xi Ye.

However, even so, the other party only promised to meet and talk first, obviously very hesitant.

After listening to the headhunter's introduction, Xi Ye didn't dare to delay and directly sent an invitation link for a meeting. Recruiting people is all about fate. Don't think that just because someone hasn't found a suitable job for a few months, they might not find one in a few minutes. After all, the universe is so big, what can't happen? He couldn't miss such a suitable head coach!

The other side quickly responded, and the two met through a link in a virtual club specially set up by the talent network.

As soon as he arrived at the club, Xi Ye saw the tall Titan. Although the data clearly stated that he was six meters tall and weighed seven tons, seeing him in person still gave Xi Ye a considerable shock.

That kind of Titan with explosive muscles all over his body was far more majestic than the Bronze Race and the Thunder Clan. No wonder he could become a darling of the arena. Just his appearance alone would make many viewers willing to pay.

"You're the lord who wants to hire a coach?" the tall Titan asked in a muffled voice, casually sitting down cross-legged, but still a lot taller than Xi Ye.

Xi Ye calmed down and said in a low voice, "Yes, I plan to cultivate a group of high-end Green Titans in my territory and need a Green Titan warrior with rich fighting experience to guide them."

"Cultivate high-end Green Titans?" The giant looked at Xi Ye. "Do you know how much it costs to cultivate a high-level Green Titan?"

"You don't have to worry about the money. You just need to do your job with the money!" Xi Ye's attitude was very tough. He knew that facing this kind of experienced veteran, being too timid would only be looked down upon.

The giant took a deep look at Xi Ye and fell into deep thought.

His name was Zanda Anlier, a collateral descendant of the Anlier Family. After graduating from a second-rate warrior academy, he began his arena career.

Because this was the fastest way to repay the family's debts. In their Anlier Family, every child who wanted to become a warrior had to apply for family training in the form of a loan, clearly stipulating how much wealth they had to create for the family after graduation before they could become independent and start a family.

There was no other way. The evolution conditions for Green Titans were harsh, and the training costs were too expensive. The family had to concentrate resources even more, so they basically sacrificed the future of collateral descendants to cultivate outstanding direct descendants.

This led to most of the Anlier Family's children ending up in the arena.

The arena made money quickly, but it took a great toll on the body. Zanda was relatively lucky. He was successfully injured after paying off the family's debts, but now he had no savings and had to support his wife and soon-to-be-born son. Naturally, he couldn't continue this high-risk profession in his injured state.

So recently, he had been trying to find a stable job. Many people contacted him to join the army, but he didn't want to. The army was a more dangerous place than the arena. If he was young and unburdened, it wouldn't matter, but now that he had a family, how could he still go to such a place to earn money by risking his life?

But stable jobs were not very friendly to Green Titans. For example, for security work, the big shots preferred to hire female police officers and warrant officers from Piltover, and even the small-time bosses who paid less would at most hire a troll. Hiring a Green Titan of his level was too extravagant.

Most of the coaching jobs preferred graduates from normal colleges and didn't really care about pure warriors like him. Moreover, he was a Green Titan coach. The main reason was that the Green Titan's fiery temper really led to a bad reputation in the education industry.

Just as he was anxious, the headhunter gave him such a channel, saying that someone wanted to cultivate high-level Green Titans and wanted to hire him as a coach.

When he first heard this, he was overjoyed and secretly thought that he had the money for milk powder. But he didn't expect that it was such a kid who wanted to hire him. A lord who had just started building a base actually said that he wanted to cultivate high-level Green Titans?

This was either a super rich second generation or a complete idiot.

Should he accept this job?
