Creating characters... Materialized!

"Fuck you!"

"System, are you screwing with me?"

Five whole Silver Summoning Cards, and it didn't even give him a single Half-Saint expert!

If that Outer Sect Elder at the Dou Zun Peak hadn't come at the end, he would have flipped the table.

"System, tell me honestly. Did you secretly adjust the odds?"

Please do not slander me, Host. This system prides itself on authenticity!

What you draw depends entirely on your own luck!

You're making this very difficult for me!

"Difficult?"

"Damn it! If it's difficult, then don't do it!"

A short while later.

"Fine, fine. I can't be bothered to argue with you."

At that moment, five black-robed men entered Emperor Hall.

"Ye Long, Ye Yue, Ye Peng, Ye Lie, Ye Ji!"

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

The five spoke in unison.

"Ye Long, right?"

"From now on, you are an Outer Sect Elder of my Ye Emperor Hall. All Outer Sect Elders will be under your jurisdiction."

Ye Changge glanced at the one with the highest cultivation.

"Go. Protect the sect well."

"Yes."

"Wait."

Seeing how out of place their clothing was compared to his own, Ye Changge stopped them.

"Go to Elder Ye Bai later and collect your sect uniforms."

"System, can you put sect uniforms directly on the people you summon next time?"

"Why do you always dress them all in black robes? Are you that obsessed with black robes?"

"Why make me waste my breath?"

Received!

Meanwhile, within Ye Emperor Hall.

Having just finished his work, Shi Hao was panting heavily as he dropped onto the ground.

"Finally done. Fighting more than a dozen geniuses alone wasn't even this tiring."

"Organizing sect resources really is exhausting work!"

"Hey, Junior Brother, where are you going?"

Shi Hao saw Xiao Yan approaching, with his father following behind him, and quickly greeted them.

"Senior Brother!"

"I was just about to look for you. I didn't expect you to be here."

"Teacher asked me to take my father to the Technique Hall to choose a few cultivation techniques, then come to you for a hall's worth of resources."

"Quick, quick! Hurry and send someone to take them away. There won't be room for them soon."

Shi Hao's eyes lit up, as though he had seen a savior.

Take them away already, there was far too much!

I've never seen so many low-level cultivation resources. I'm not interested in resources anymore!

The sixth storage hall they had just built was filled up in no time.

These people were far too insane.

Even though Teacher had said they mainly wanted cultivation techniques and combat skills.

The moment those factions heard that Ye Emperor Hall was interested in cultivation techniques and combat skills, they immediately went back and exchanged all sorts of resources for combat skills and cultivation techniques.

They even dug up the sect-defending cultivation techniques they usually kept buried underground.

Then they sent cart after cart to Ye Emperor Hall.

The sixth storage hall was piled full of cultivation techniques and combat skills, forming a small mountain. It was terrifying!

Although Ye Emperor Hall had countless pavilions and buildings, they couldn't just leave everything in the rooms, could they?

How would anyone live like that?

Shi Hao's eyes shifted as he considered the possibility.

After thinking it over, he decided against it.

What if someone came to visit Ye Emperor Hall, opened a door, and found it full of cultivation techniques and combat skills? Wouldn't it blind them?

"The Technique Hall!"

"Come on, come on, I'll go with you."

Come to think of it, ever since he and Xiao Yan had arrived at the sect, neither of them had visited the Technique Hall.

Teacher had directly arranged cultivation techniques tailored specifically for the two of them.

They had also comprehended their own exclusive combat skills from those techniques, so they had never gone to the Technique Hall to look around.

This was the perfect chance to see what kind of cultivation techniques and combat skills Teacher and the sect had collected.

Before the gates of the Technique Hall.

The three stood outside, admiring the imposing Technique Hall.

Before they even entered, they had already been awed by it.

Two great sacred beasts were carved before the gates.

Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right.

The two sacred beasts were carved with lifelike detail, as if they might come alive at any moment.

On the plaque at the very top were the words "Technique Hall." Each character was gilded and soaring, emanating an invisible aura of might.

An imposing couplet also hung on either side, reading: "Contains the cultivation techniques of all heavens; surveys the myriad universes."

"Damn! Senior Brother, this couplet in the Technique Hall is really badass!"

"Could it be that it's filled entirely with cultivation techniques?"

"Who knows? Let's go in and find out."

Xiao Yan was equally stunned. From the moment he had entered Ye Emperor Hall, he had begun to doubt his own life.

"An immortal realm! This is definitely an immortal realm!"

"Not only had the Xiao Family gained the favor and protection of the main sect, but his own son had even become the Sect Master's Direct Disciple."

"The Xiao Family would have a hard time not soaring!"

Pushing open the doors, the three walked inside.

What greeted them were rows upon rows of neatly arranged cultivation techniques and combat skills.

"Father, let's start choosing."

The dazzling array of cultivation techniques and combat skills left the three at a loss over where to begin.

Shi Hao casually picked up several books closest to him and began reading.

Nine Nether Thunder Roar Art: Earth-tier Mid-grade Cultivation Technique!

Holy Light War God Art: Earth-tier High-grade Cultivation Technique!

"Junior Brother, these... are all Earth-tier Cultivation Techniques!"

Shi Hao and Xiao Yan both realized it by then.

Their hearts pounded wildly.

Although Xiao Yan and Shi Hao were stunned.

They were still better off, since the cultivation techniques their teacher had given them were no weaker than Earth-tier Cultivation Techniques.

But Xiao Zhan was different.

What cultivation technique had he cultivated?

The cultivation technique he practiced was only a Profound-tier Mid-level Cultivation Technique.

When had he ever seen such a scene?

At the same time, he once again thanked the Sect Master in his heart for his generosity.

He had allowed the Xiao Family to choose several techniques freely.

Here, any random technique was either an Earth-tier Low-grade or Earth-tier High-grade Cultivation Technique.

Before long, the three emerged.

Xiao Yan selected one Earth-tier High-grade Cultivation Technique and three Earth-tier High-grade combat skills.

Those three books alone were enough. They could be passed down through the Xiao Family for a hundred years, perhaps even longer.

Xiao Yan decided that once he returned, he would designate these books as the Xiao Family's inherited cultivation techniques.

Beneath the Sect Headquarters.

Less than a hundred miles from Ye Emperor Hall.

The vast open ground beneath Black Rock City had been cleared.

The Xiao Family Members were busy at work.

Everyone's faces were filled with joy. They were building a city for the main sect, but they were also building it for themselves.

Once Green Lotus City was completed, the entire Xiao Family would move here from Wutan City.

The Dou Qi here was incredibly abundant, and with the main sect's protection, it was practically a paradise.

Over at Emperor Hall.

Master: Ye Changge. Cultivation: Dou Ancestor Peak. Disciples: Xiao Yan, Shi Hao!

Sect experts: Patriarch Ye Xuan, Dou Emperor Peak; Outer Sect Elders Ye Long and Ye Bai, Dou Zun Peak; Outer Sect Elders Ye Cheng and five others, Dou Ancestor Peak.

Sect: Ye Emperor Hall, First-grade Sect (about to advance to a Second-grade Sect).

Seeing the final line of information about the sect, Ye Changge was somewhat shocked!

Hadn't the sect only been established recently?

Ye Emperor Hall was already about to break through from a First-grade Sect and become a Second-grade Sect?

Awesome!

A First-grade Sect was already this impressive. Wouldn't a Second-grade Sect be heaven-defying?

Looking more closely, the sect did not have many experts, but it did not have too few either.

However, it only had two Direct Disciples.

How could that do?

For a sect to develop, disciples were the most important thing.

Utility Disciples, Outer Disciples, Inner Disciples, Direct Disciples, Sect Holy Sons!

There were also Outer Sect Elders, Outer Sect Elders, Inner Sect Elders, Law Enforcement Elders, and the Ten Great Elders!

None of these could be lacking.

"Looks like once I obtain the Green Lotus Core Flame, Ye Emperor Hall will have to open its gates and recruit disciples."

As for the various elders, if he could not summon them, then he could only "invite" them from outside!
