Although he had a financial backer, Lin Ke still had plenty to consider.
He had originally asked Zong Ya to find Chang Qing.
The criteria had been good value for money: low fees, with no need for a particularly high-ranking Formation Master.
Now it seemed that, although Chang Qing had inherited three origin tier great formations, he had never attempted any of them.
He could certainly be called a genius in formations. Creating so many formations while only at the Dao Foundation initial stage was truly impressive.
