Chapter 510: Refining Magical Treasures
"Subordinate obeys!"
Shen Shan immediately replied in a low voice.
Even though sadness still lingered in his heart, the influence of the "Glazed Heart Confusion Technique" ensured that his emotions did not interfere with the delivery of commands.
"Mm, good."
"You are all carefully selected and are already familiar with the entire training process. When there are no tasks assigned, you will assist the instructors in training the juniors."
"Just in time, you have all graduated, and the next batch of newcomers will arrive in a few days."
Liu Yu gently nodded and casually instructed.
Looking at the subordinates in front of him, who had developed a bit of ferocity after a brutal elimination, he was generally satisfied.
Although this meant that half of his foundation establishment death warriors had been reduced, being able to filter out "elites" was still worth it overall.
After all, the tasks that the foundation establishment death warriors executed were not simple tasks. If incompetent individuals were sent, it could very likely ruin things.
It was better to eliminate hidden dangers early rather than have them affect the overall plan later.
In any case, with successful experiences, cultivating another batch of foundation establishment death warriors would only cost him some spiritual stones.
Life can sometimes indeed be measured in spiritual stones.
"Spiritual stones are great, but sometimes, they are worth nothing!"
Liu Yu sighed lightly.
Then, he began to distribute supreme magical artifacts or superior spiritual artifacts to the victors of the assessment.
Over the course of about twenty years, he acquired nine foundation establishment death warriors and dozens of qi refinement death warriors.
Although the effort didn't match the returns, it was normal to take some detours in the beginning, and Liu Yu could barely accept it.
With the optimization of the entire process, everything would gradually get back on track, and his subordinates would continue to increase!
Among those who participated in this assessment, Liu Yu appreciated only Shen Shan and Xu Haoran, whose strengths indeed surpassed their peers.
Thus, he only awarded them superior spiritual artifacts.
As for the other seven, they all received supreme magical artifacts.
This result made the other seven feel both love and hate, but they would never dare to doubt the "Master's" decision.
"Our organization will henceforth be called—Shadow of the Sun."
"Moon Heart will be the first elder, while White Tiger and Haoran will be the first left and right protectors."
"As for the others, they will be the first hall masters."
After arming the nine with magical and spiritual artifacts, Liu Yu announced the name of the organization and then declared each person's rank and hierarchy.
"Yes, Master!"
Cold Moon Heart led the nine to respond loudly.
Liu Yu nodded lightly and then transformed into escape light, soaring into the sky, returning to Eternal Spring Mountain.
On the spot, Cold Moon Heart, as the only elder, began to assign tasks to her subordinates.
Since Liu Yu took control of the branch, although it had been quite smooth overall, there were still some local cultivation forces in Yuan State that secretly disobeyed his orders.
Sometimes, they even dared to secretly search for children with spiritual roots to hide, competing with the branch for "population resources."
Whether it's the outer sect disciples delivered to the sect every three years or the personnel needed for "Shadow of the Sun," they all required individuals with spiritual root aptitude.
These cultivation forces dared to touch those with spiritual root aptitude, which equated to stepping on Liu Yu's interests.
At this time, the opportunity to stabilize the branch had matured; it was time to take action against these ungrateful forces!
Of course, if it were golden core forces, Liu Yu would turn a blind eye, pretending not to see.
...
"Did you remember everything I just said?"
In the cave dwelling at Eternal Spring Mountain, Liu Yu looked at the cold-eyed foundation establishment death warrior in front of him and spoke softly.
