Blacksmith Association.

Inside Jiang Xiu's room.

"Junior brother, these are all suggestions from Uncle Zhen Hua. He said these forces are all pretty good. Take a look."

A Ruheng placed a thick stack of contracts on the table in front of Jiang Xiu. These contracts were the generous offers made by those powerful families three days ago to recruit Jiang Xiu.

Any one of these contracts would be enough to make outside blacksmiths nod their heads in delight and shout, "I want it! I want it!", but here they are treated as backup options and screened layer by layer.

"Okay, let me see." Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered, and he beckoned to take the contract, quickly scanning it.

Compared to Jiang Xiu, a naive young man Zhen Hua, who frequently dealt with these powerful families, had a better understanding of their specific circumstances. Therefore, Jiang Xiu immediately asked A Ruheng to take these contracts to his teacher Zhen Hua, for review.

"Boss, actually the Spirit Pagoda is pretty good, chew chew chew..." Na'er said while sitting to the side, showing off the fruit platter, "These families aren't as rich or as powerful as the Spirit Pagoda Spirit Pagoda."

"Na'er, if the Body Sect wants to revive, it can't rely solely on the Spirit Pagoda. Although the other forces are slightly weaker, they are all top-tier families with deeply entrenched connections within the Federation. They will be useful in the future," Jiang Xiu chuckled and continued reading.

"Absolutely, absolutely, interpersonal relationships are still very important," A Ruheng agreed wholeheartedly, then, as if remembering something, solemnly added, "But when it comes to finding allies, we need to find reliable ones."

Over these ten thousand years, the fate of their Body Sect is vividly remembered. Ten thousand years ago, their Body Sect was so arrogant, and in these ten thousand years, their Body Sect has declined so much. Before Leng Yaozhu's support, the Body Sect didn't even have a decent sect.

Ten thousand years ago, the sect leader of their Body Sect Du Busi, finally found a seemingly reliable ally Huo Yuhao, on his deathbed, hoping that he could help revive the Body Sect. However, Huo Yuhao directly handed over the Body Sect's most precious Secret of the Body to the Shrek Academy and left without a trace.

Thinking of this, A Ruheng felt extremely indignant. It was possible that some of the secret manuals that their Body Sect was missing were currently lying in the Shrek Academy's treasury.

"The relationships are too complicated to be as simple as those in the world of Soul Beast," Na'er muttered to herself, but seeing Jiang Xiu carefully selecting items and his brows furrowing from time to time, a hint of determination flashed in her purple eyes.

"No matter what others say, I will stand firmly by your side until you fully mature, but boss, you can't forget to help Na'er..."

Jiang Xiu wasn't paying attention to Na'er at the moment. Instead, he was quickly browsing the advantages and conditions offered by the various top families. The sound of pages flipping through the pages filled the room, accompanied by the smacking sounds of Na'er enjoying her food.

Suddenly, Jiang Xiu stopped what he was doing and his gaze fell directly on a family document, which belonged to the Yue Family Angel Family.

"Angel Family... Southern Legion..." Jiang Xiu murmured to himself, a sudden thought striking him as he quickly reviewed the Angel Family's information.

After reading it, a sharp glint flashed in Jiang Xiu's eyes, and his mind raced with thoughts. "The Angel Yue Family is worth befriending; they might be able to help Master in the Federation election five years from now..."

There are eight legions in the Federation. Apart from the Sea God Legion, there is another legion that is very special. That is the Southern Legion, which guards the southern part of the Federation.

What makes the Southern Legion special is not its strength, but its supplies and direct subordinate relationships.

Although the Southern Legion obeys the Federation, they are directly subordinate to various families, with the Angel Family being the largest leader. In some matters, the Angel Family's orders are more effective than those of the military, simply because the Southern Legion's supplies and support are subsidized by the Angel Family.

However, due to its direct subordinate relationship and geographical location, the Southern Legion ' overall combat strength is weaker than that of other army corps, and it competes with the Northern Legion for the last place.

However, in Jiang Xiu's view, these two major weaknesses of the Southern Legion were actually great advantages.

Although the Southern Legion is weak, it still has the right to vote, and if it can be won over, it would be extremely beneficial to support his mentor, Dong Zi'an, in taking the position of the top military region commander.

Geographically, the Southern Legion and the Sea God Legion both belong to the Southern Theater Command. After Chen Xinjie's incident and suspension from duty, they can effectively restrain the Sea God Legion.

Jiang Xiu was extremely cautious about Chen Xinjie, even somewhat wary of him, because even though Chen Xinjie was suspended from his post, he could still mobilize the Sea God Legion thanks to his deep roots in the military, and even the War God Temple was indirectly under Chen Xinjie's command.

In Jiang Xiu's eyes, this Angel Family was undoubtedly a timely help.

"The son of the current head of the Yue Family seems to be at the Shrek Academy... Tsk, this fits perfectly into my plan." Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered as he silently pondered.

After taking out the Yue Family's information separately, Jiang Xiu continued to browse through it, but until the end, he did not see any other family that was extremely beneficial to him at the moment.

"Junior brother, how is it?" Seeing Jiang Xiu put down the contracts, A Ruheng asked with concern.

Jiang Xiu's decision, to a certain extent, represents the future collaborators of the Body Sect.

Of course, he, as the Grandmaster, fully supported Jiang Xiu's decision.

Mu Ye had told him long ago that he was a military general and didn't need to do anything thinking, and he agreed with that, since using his brain was nothing compared to the thrill of fists hitting flesh.

"The Yue Family and Aunt Leng's Leng Family are the best choices," Jiang Xiu said slowly, though he temporarily concealed the Yu Family.

"Alright, junior brother, you handle it. Just tell me if there's anything you need done," A Ruheng said readily, feeling great to clear his mind.

Na'er even waved her fist in support; her master's Leng Family had already secretly formed an alliance with the Body Sect.

"Oh, right, junior brother, this is what Uncle Zhen Hua asked me to give you. He said it's a list of three families he invited, but they didn't come." At this moment, A Ruheng seemed to remember something and took out a list.

"So many families have come, how does Teacher know so much about them?" Na'er exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehehe, Uncle Zhen Hua said he might not know which families came, but he definitely knows exactly which families didn't." A Ruheng scratched his head and chuckled.

"Oh? The Titan Family..." Jiang Xiu raised an eyebrow, his attention immediately focused on the Titan Yuanen Family, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected his teacher to have invited the Yuanen Family.

However, he quickly understood. His teacher had invited all the top forces in the alliance, so the Yuanen Family was naturally qualified. Moreover, the Yuanen Family was not originally a reclusive family; it was only after a catastrophe more than a decade ago that they slowly disappeared from the world's sight and went into hiding.

The reason the Yuanen Family didn't attend was probably not to deliberately offend their teacher, but simply because they didn't want to remain out of the public eye. The catastrophe more than a decade ago had dealt a heavy blow to the Yuanen Family...

"The Demon Plane and the opportunity for the Underworld Emperor to become a god are both related to this family," Jiang Xiu thought to himself.

Throughout the entire continent, only the Yuanen Family, or more precisely, a young girl from the Yuanen Family, possesses both the Titan Giant Ape and Fallen Angel martial Martial Soul, capable of opening the portal to the Demon Plane.

"Now that I think about it, she should already be working part-time at the Shrek Academy..." Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly. Looking at it this way, all his plans were now aimed at the Shrek Academy.

After finalizing his plan, Jiang Xiu's eyes hardened even more. Tomorrow's final match against the Shrek Academy was crucial to his plan, and he had to perform well.

"Junior brother, Na'er, you two should get some rest too. Tomorrow is your final. Good luck!" Seeing Jiang Xiu put down all his things, A Ruheng knew that Jiang Xiu had made up his mind, so he got up to leave.

"Oh, right, junior brother, make sure to give the Shrek Academy Team a good beating, let them know how powerful our Body Sect." Before leaving, A Ruheng added one more instruction.

Their Body Sect has fallen to such a state that it's impossible for them to say they have no connection with the Shrek Academy. The Secret of the Body was complete when it was given to Huo Yuhao, but much of it is missing by the time it reaches them.

These interest payments need to be collected little by little.

"That's natural." Jiang Xiu nodded slightly.

The blacksmith competition a few days ago only caused a stir in the blacksmith world, making many people aware of their Body Sect again. However, this Skysea Alliance Grand Competition, which includes the Shrek Academy Team, is a major step in the re-emergence of their Body Sect.

After all, what could be more exciting than climbing to the top by stepping on the Shrek Academy?
