The youth who might become Tian Shi Palace Master had become his first disciple.
Tian Shi's tribe was not on War God Star, but since he had taken Tian Shi as his disciple, he naturally had to let him live on War God Star for easier guidance in the future.
For his disciple's sake, Wang Yu had Venina arrange for his entire tribe to move to War God Star, letting Tian Shi experience the thrill of one man attaining the Dao and his chickens and dogs ascending to heaven.
Tian Shi was already at the high Apprentice Grade. Since he had even comprehended Artistic Conception, remaining at Apprentice Grade was meaningless. Wang Yu told him to break through to the Planetary-level immediately, rest for the night, and receive advanced secret techniques from him tomorrow.
Tian Shi kowtowed again in excitement, then followed the servant who led him away.
"Venina, you deserve much credit for discovering a genius like Tian Shi," Wang Yu said with a smile.
"My lord, you flatter me. This is what I should do!" Venina replied gratefully.
"What kind of spaceship are you using now?"
"My lord, it is a C3-class spaceship assigned to me by the Empire!"
"It is a little ordinary. As your reward this time... how about this? Choose a fully metal C5-class spaceship to replace it."
"A fully metal C5-class!" Venina was overjoyed.
"As this lord's steward, not only must your spatial ring be up to standard, but your other equipment must keep pace as well," Wang Yu said casually.
"Otherwise, when you go out, people from other factions might think this lord's subordinates cannot even afford a better spaceship!"
"Thank you for your reward, my lord!" Venina's face flushed red with excitement.
"Serving you is my duty. Being appreciated by you is already an immense honor, and now you have bestowed such a precious reward upon me..."
"It is only a C-class spaceship." Wang Yu waved his hand casually.
"Serve this lord well. This little reward is nothing. As long as you handle the matters this lord gives you properly, I can reward you with even more at any time!"
"I will certainly give my all and not disappoint your great expectations, my lord!" Venina's entire body trembled slightly.
A fully metal C5-class spaceship!
That was worth more than ten billion White Dragon Coins!
Even many descendants of great families might not get to use a spaceship of this grade!
The lord truly spent money without restraint!
"Alright, back to business. This lord has something to instruct you to do," Wang Yu said.
"This trip to Imperial Capital Star increased this lord's planetary territories by another fifty planets. The population has nearly doubled, so the management workload will likely become immense."
"You do not need to think about saving money for this lord. I have plenty of money. What I need is for the territory to be managed well. Spend where spending is needed, hire where hiring is needed..."
"If the Imperial Administrative Office cannot provide enough personnel, go find a professional planetary management company, or contact Cosmic Galaxy Bank."
"Cosmic Galaxy Bank?" Venina was stunned.
"Yes." Wang Yu nodded lightly.
"During this trip to Imperial Capital Star, this lord deposited ten million Universe Coins in Cosmic Galaxy Bank and advanced to a One-Star Account."
"A One-Star Account comes with many convenient services, including planetary management. Though the fees may be somewhat high, their standards should not be poor."
As Wang Yu spoke, he sent the account number and password of an affiliated sub-account to Vinina.
"This sub-account will be managed by you. All future expenses for the territory will be withdrawn from this account. Use however much you need. Unless it is a major matter, there is no need to ask me about every single thing."
"Yes!" Venina quickly answered respectfully.
A One-Star Account!
She had received professional training, and her knowledge and judgment far surpassed that of ordinary Star-level individuals. Thus, she understood what Universe Coins, Universe Crystals, and One-Star Accounts at the two great cosmic banks represented.
That was a prestigious account only obtainable with deposits of ten million Universe Coins!
Across the entire Blue Silver Empire, it was said that fewer than ten Universe-level powerhouses possessed a One-Star Account!
The lord had only just broken through to the Universe-level, yet he already possessed such immense wealth!
"Also, regarding the ten thousand people selected and the one hundred million from the preliminary selection, arrange them as we discussed before. Provide them with sufficient resources and instructors, and raise their strength as quickly as possible," Wang Yu continued.
"However... after thinking it over, this training scale is still too small. It is somewhat too conservative."
"You mean..." Venina was taken aback.
"Expand the training scale," Wang Yu said calmly.
"Starting now, select another three billion citizens and immediately use potions to help them break through to the Planetary-level!"
"Three billion citizens? All of them using potions to break through to the Planetary-level???" Venina's eyes widened in shock. Was this not far too great an expansion!?
"This... my lord, a Planetary Evolution Potion costs roughly ten thousand White Dragon Coins. For three billion citizens, that would be thirty trillion... nearly five million Universe Coins!"
"This lord naturally knows," Wang Yu said with a composed smile.
"Venina, whether or not it is worth it is not something you need to consider."
"The only thing you need to think about is how to handle the matters this lord has instructed you to do in the fastest and best way possible!"
"Yes... my lord!" Venina answered respectfully.
The lord had spoken so domineeringly. What else could she say?
Perhaps the lord truly was kindhearted and wanted to build a powerful territory at any cost...
Or perhaps he had reasons and thoughts she could not understand...
How could she possibly comprehend the thoughts of a Universe-level powerhouse?
In any case, faithfully carrying out the lord's orders was the right thing to do!
After Venina left as well, only Wang Yu remained in the hall, seated high upon his throne.
"Five million Universe Coins. Ordinary Universe-level beings might not even have that much cash. This is definitely a huge sum."
"However, as long as I cross the Law Threshold of the Origin Laws, having a little more wealth will not be such a big deal."
"An ordinary Domain Lord Level powerhouse has a net worth of around ten billion Universe Coins. Powerful Universe-level beings like Nuolan Shan and Mentor Yoda would not consider one billion or eight hundred million Universe Coins to be much."
"As long as I cross the Law Threshold, I will be a powerful Universe-level being like them. I will be able to handle any wealth that is not too outrageous."
Wang Yu nodded lightly and turned his gaze toward the rows of illusory text from the system.
[Lord Upgrade Requirement: Train 1 Third-Tier Elite Stellar level] [Third-Tier Elite Stellar level: Force Amplitude exceeds 40, Mind Force Amplitude exceeds 30, possesses a domain (meeting any one condition)]
"To raise the lord level to one star, I need to train a Third-Tier Elite Stellar level individual," Wang Yu pondered.
"This requirement is neither high nor low. For a major faction, recruiting an elite genius at this level would naturally not be difficult."
"But for my shabby territory, with a bunch of mediocre citizens, it is difficult."
"Moreover, the system requires 'training.' It must be a citizen of my territory who breaks through in strength. Buying slaves, soul enslavement, coercion and inducement, or directly obtaining someone who meets the requirements will not be recognized by the system..."
"Fortunately, Tian Shi actually emerged from among a group of citizens with tenth- and ninth-tier bloodlines!"
