A comfortable life bred complacency; only enemies forced you to grow.
Through advertising, Lin Bai had tied the players to himself in the same boat.
But given the players' terrifying potential for growth, he did not want to teach them his skills. Even if he did, he had to ensure their loyalty first.
Now, however, circumstances had forced his hand.
In this world, true comfort meant growing into a colossus like the Seven Righteous Sects.
Only now.
Did Lin Bai begin to dimly realize that the systems he carried had been pushing him ever higher, such as the Chief Supporting Character System and the Sect Leader System that had appeared later...
Players were creatures who were very easily satisfied.
He taught the combat-oriented players the Nine Suns Scripture and the Dragon-Subduing Ten-Stroke Palm, taught [Divine Doctor Hua] Basic Alchemy, and taught [Artifact Refining Master] magic treasure fundamentals.
The players' happiness then began flowing steadily into Lin Bai's mind.
Those providing him with positive emotion points were not just the Beggar Gang disciples around him, but also the new disciples who had joined the Beggar Gang far away in Jiamao City.
As Lin Bai led the Beggar Gang disciples into Qian City, a new batch of Pioneers entered the Novice Villages.
This time, the Game Company had released a hundred thousand accounts, distributed across more than seventy Novice Villages. Each village received over a thousand players.
Those who chose Jiamao City had come specifically for the Beggar Gang and Lin Bai.
After all, Lin Bai had already monopolized Jiamao City, leaving no other way forward. Even though plenty of voices opposing him had later appeared online, many people were still willing to trail behind him and get a share of the scraps.
