"Hiss…"
The group s.u.c.k.e.d in sharp breaths once more.
Little North, who sat beside Happy, already did not know what sort of respectful gaze he should use to face his sect master.
"Sect Master Happy, I truly admire your spirit and boldness!"
Phantasmal Shadow lifted her winecup to show her respect, and her gaze was sincere.
At this point, she knew that she had lost to Happy again.
Phantasmal Shadow had thought about buying the jade plate at a high price to fight for a chance to get Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy, but Happy did not even care about the legacy. He just decided to hand it over to an outstanding member in his sect.
This was a legacy from a martial artist who was One with the World!
"Empress Shadow, you're being far too polite." Happy calmly lifted his cup to return the gesture.
"I, Lin Xiao, am filled with admiration for you."
"I, Red Dust, propose a toast to you, Sect Master Happy."
The two alliance masters of Chivalry Alliance stood up at the same time. Since Happy had stated this publicly, then this was a fact that had already been set in stone, and he would not change it.
Happy smiled and said nothing. He then saw Little North take the initiative to fill Happy's cup with wine.
Once he finished drinking, someone sitting by a table not too far away suddenly stood up at that moment and asked a question, "Sect Master Happy, I have a question. You mentioned just now that you will be deciding who will be the strongest fighter in Lovely Land in a competition. Will you and the other two vice sect masters join the competition?"
Once he finished speaking, everyone burst into a ruckus. They looked at the man, who was someone with an upright look and resolute gaze. Even Lin Xiao, Phantasmal Shadow, and the others were stunned. Then, they looked at Happy with great interest.
"That's right. Sect Master Happy, Lovely Land has you and One Emperor, two matchless elites. When you mention the members, did you include One Emperor in the mix?"
"One Emperor is obsessed with the path of the sword, and he will naturally not inherit Senior Heavenly Saber Song's legacy. One Emperor will not be included in the competition between Lovely Land members, and there is no need to even mention me, considering the fact that I have been excluded from the possible candidates. We wouldn't be so shameless as to compete with the other members in our sect."
Happy smiled and looked at Thunderous Battle. He did not expect that the first person to ask the question would be this friend of his.
Thunderous Battle had actually gone through a huge conflict in his mind before he stood up. When he received Happy's answer, he instantly released a breath of relief. "Thank you for your answer, sect master. Then, if I join Lovely Land now, will I be eligible for the competition…?"
When he said those words, the group burst into a ruckus once more.
Everyone cast their gazes on Thunderous Battle's face.
Happy was also stunned.
"I know that what I said might be incredibly rude, and I will also sound as if I'm aiming for Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy. I will not deny that I do indeed want it, that is why I would only like to know whether the people who join Lovely Land right now will have the right to enter the competition," Thunderous Battle said once more in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
Even though his question was incredibly straightforward, it had to be said that he gave voice to the question and expectation of the many people's hearts.
Because most of the players inside and outside the mansion were not attached to a sect. They were all players to whom Wandering Know-it-all had discovered in the Chinese server, and they were all people who had a rather decent potential and strength.
These people were all people who were qualified to join Lovely Land!
It would definitely be fake to say that they had no d.e.s.i.r.e for Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy. As long as they had a chance, they definitely wanted to fight for it.
Everyone cast their gazes on Happy's face once more.
Nervous, expected, and burning gazes intersected in the air.
Little North also clenched his sleeves tightly as he nervously watched his sect master slowly twirl the winecup in his hands. After all, he was also someone who had just joined Lovely Land.
But what surprised them was that the first thing Happy said was not to answer Thunderous Battle's question.
"Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy is something that belongs to me, and it is also a reward I decided to add to the competition. It is only par for the course that I am the one who decides who gets it. This has nothing to do with the current system in Lovely Land. And I will also be the one who will decide who will get the rewards which are similar to this, so long as I am the one who personally puts them into the sect storage."
From the moment Happy spoke, everyone became attentive.
Even though they did not immediately get the answer they expected, everyone in the hall could tell that Happy had revealed some news that this was his personal decision, and he will continue doing the same thing in the future.
"There isn't just one outstanding member in Lovely Land, but there is only one Heavenly Saber legacy. The competition will be brutal to Lovely Land, considering the fact that it has more than one million members. That's why I don't wish for Heavenly Saber's legacy to fall into enemy hands, especially those from Class One Hall. Those who have once helped Dream Clouds will definitely not be taken into Lovely Land, and all those who fulfil the requirements must go through Wandering Know-it-all and my examination!"
When they heard the first half of the sentence, practically everyone, including Silver Wolf and Thunderous Battle, thought that Happy was providing an excuse to not give them the legacy, and they felt a little disappointed, but Happy's words had suddenly taken another tone at the back, and when they heard that those who fulfilled the requirement were to be examined by Happy and Wandering Know-it-all, their eyes lit up.
Silence fell.
Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and Red Dust immediately noticed that the gazes of the people around them had become much more fervent and excited. They seemed to have realized something, and they s.u.c.k.e.d in sharp breaths.
"That is why, regardless of whether it is the people who joined Lovely Land in the past or in the future, I will welcome all of you abroad. But if you want to get my personal belongings, you will need to get through me and Wandering Know-it-all. Of course, many of you here have the requirements to get my personal belongings."
"Really?"
"That's great!"
"Ha! Sect Master Happy, can we join Lovely Land right now?"
The one hundred or so martial artists in the mansion became excited. Even some of them outside the mansion could not control themselves and wanted to rush in, and they would have if there had not been so many other sect leaders who were watching them.
The atmosphere in the mansion became incredibly lively.
When Lin Xiao and Red Dust saw this, they inhaled sharply while their hearts were filled with a myriad of emotions.
"Great move."
"Even though the people here aren't very famous, they are all people who have first-class elites' skills or have their own forte. They can be considered an elite force. This group alone can create an outstanding large-sized sect with absolutely no problem whatsoever. Happy has benefited greatly this time."
"I heard that Wandering Know-it-all chose them to be here beforehand. They have a clean background. Happy must be thinking about creating the backbone for his group of trusted followers by using Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy… It's an amazing move."
While these two people sent private messages to each other to gasp in amazement about this, Phantasmal Shadow and Wu Kuo were also deeply affected by the atmosphere in the mansion, and they were shocked as well.
"Some of the good seeds that caught our fancy have all joined Lovely Land." Wu Kuo smiled wanly and sent a private message to Phantasmal Shadow. "
Looks like Silver Wolf and his three brothers are all tempted."
Phantasmal Shadow smiled wanly as well in the chaos. "It's not just Silver Wolf alone…"
She stopped talking for a while, and there was an endless wave of emotion in her heart.
Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy was an incredibly shocking item. If this news spread out, many of the elites in World of Martial Arts would fight to join Lovely Land so that they could compete for Heavenly Saber's legacy, and it must be known that those who met the requirements were at least high-ranking first-class elites! With this group of people entering Lovely Land, the sect would truly live up to its name as the greatest sect in the Chinese server, and no one would be able to touch its position anymore.
*****
It was not difficult for Happy to approve the sect applications for more than one hundred people, especially for the people to whom he was familiar with. Happy readily took in Thunderous Battle, Silver Wolf, Knife, and the other people who were not attached to any sects into Lovely Land.
Silver Wolf and the other three only decided to join at the end.
When it was his turn, Happy slowly got up, and he unintentionally put on a rather gratified smile. "Did you know that I'm really glad you decided to join my sect, Silver Wolf? I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
Silver Wolf and the other three said nothing, but they had strange expressions on their faces. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=13772664505174105)/silver-wolf-joins-the-sect_%!d(string=50094815265749726) for visiting.
The other people in the mansion did not look too surprised, because Happy had previously mentioned that Silver Wolf left him a deep impression.
When Happy said this earnestly, he seemed to have spoken from the bottom of his heart, and he looked truly happy that Silver Wolf joined. For some unknown reason, the cold look on Silver Wolf's face melted a little.
He hesitated for a few seconds before he nodded. "Same here."
Knife, Thunder, and Bar watched Happy and Silver Wolf talking to each other face to face, and they discreetly exchanged excited gazes.
"Brother Happy, congratulations to you being able to get such a group of great elites!"
"Haha! It's all thanks to you!"
"But what do you intend to do with the people outside the mansion? They also seem to want to join Lovely Land…" Lin Xiao shook his head helplessly. Ever since Happy started taking in people, the people outside became increasingly agitated.
At that moment, the people inside the mansion had returned to their seats. When they heard this, they also noticed that the flow of people outside Song House had increased. Clearly, they had been attracted by the news of Heavenly Saber's legacy and Happy's decision.
Happy looked around once, and his gaze gradually calmed down.
"I believe that everyone wants to know why I had Wandering Know-it-all reveal the quest in Song House and why he asked all of you to gather here today."
"We heard that you wanted to form an organization to fight against Wild Wolves." Lin Xiao and Phantasmal Shadow calmed down, and their tone became stern.
Happy nodded and said two words softly, "Imperial Army."
"If it's to fight against Wild Wolves, Chivalry Alliance will support it with our full strength!" Lin Xiao answered firmly.
Phantasmal Shadow refused to be outdone, and his gaze gradually grew sharper. "With you taking the lead, I believe the Imperial Art will become a wall in the Chinese server. If you need Wind Assault Tower providing money and power, I will definitely be duty-bound to not refuse."
These two sects were the most direct victims to Wild Wolves' attack. Once these two sects made their stance, there was no way the others would not agree to it.
As the topic changed, the atmosphere in Song House instantly became much grimmer, and the expressions on the people's faces changed.
Chapter 1128 - Leave
In the beginning, Happy did not intend to recruit all these people into his sect, but wanted to gather together all the friends he was familiar with in the name of the Imperial Army and under the banner of destroying Wild Wolves. Then, he wanted to slowly have them become familiar with him as they spent time together, and he would search for a chance to recruit them all into Lovely Land after that.
He did not expect that the sudden and unexpected change in the reward for the quest would cause the entire process to become much smoother.
Heavenly Saber Song Que's legacy had fired up the fighting spirit within the people and made them want to compete for the title of the strongest in Lovely Land!
But Happy did not understand how these people managed to summon the confidence for their fighting spirit, because there were already around forty top-class elites in Lovely Land itself.
However, since Silver Wolf and the others joined Lovely Land earlier than planned, Happy became incredibly excited. Once Wind Assault Tower and Chivalry Alliance agreed to join the plan, he naturally shifted the topic of conversation to the building of the Imperial Army.
"We don't need to be in a hurry to destroy Wild Wolves, but we can't delay the matter for too long either."
The first thing Happy mentioned resonated with Phantasmal Shadow. Her expression became stern, and she nodded in agreement. "That's right. Even though Evil Emperor left in defeat, it's mainly because he overestimated the trump cards Dream Clouds had, underestimated Happy, and overlooked Lovely Land's combat power. If Wild Wolves had sent all their forces over in the start, Wind Assault Tower and Lovely Land would no longer exist in the Chinese server."
Silence fell.
Lin Xiao and Red Dust looked at each other and nodded slowly. Their expressions were incredibly grave.
Silver Wolf and the rest put down the winecups in their hands and surrounded these sect leaders. They watched Happy and Phantasmal Shadow, and they also listened attentively.
"Right now, Wild Wolves has already lost their best agent in the Chinese plains, but if we give them time, they will definitely bring up a decently-sized sect, and they will come to the Chinese plains in an even more dangerous fashion. By then, it will be another disaster to the Chinese server. Sect Master Happy, you mentioned that you will build the Imperial Army and send them out of the Chinese plains to fight against Wild Wolves so that you can build another defense line outside the Chinese server, right? Wind Assault Tower will cooperate fully with you in this!"
She stopped talking for a while. Phantasmal Shadow's gaze was redirected elsewhere, and she said, "But we will definitely need to retain a certain number of elites and guards in the Chinese server itself to prevent Class One Hall from rising from the ashes. As of right now, you must take this into consideration."
"Empress Shadow, you're right." When he saw Phantasmal Shadow's gaze, Happy nodded quietly, but his tone suddenly changed. "But this isn't a good place to talk about this. If I may say, let's talk about this later. Of course, if there is anyone who is willing to change your thoughts and is willing to join the Imperial Army, I will welcome you. That includes my friends on the wall."
"I'll join it!"
"I want to join Lovely Land!"
"Will we have any benefits if we join the Imperial Army?"
Loud sound waves suddenly rose from the area outside. Happy only smiled, got up, and lifted his cup. "I propose a toast to Senior Heavenly Saber. Congratulations for entering the dao of heaven, senior!"
The new Lovely Land members got up. "Congratulations to Senior Heavenly Saber!"
After taking a huge turn from the main course, the feast finally returned to its main topic—the feast itself.
*****
In truth, Happy had already formed the basic outline for the Imperial Army.
Silver Wolf and the rest all joined Lovely Land!
This time, the people he had in mind to form the Imperial Army were basically all there. Only All-powerful Medicinal St
one, Ancient Wind, and Momo did not appear.
But since there was no need for the Imperial Army to be too large for the time being, even if Wind Assault Tower did not join them, Lovely Land could still build its own Imperial Army.
Right now, the main thing Happy was thinking about was to increase their strength within the shortest amount of time possible.
One Emperor was currently going over to Thailand. If he calculated the time, Wild Wolves' reinforcements should have already reached the area nearby, and the storm of conflict between Wild Wolves and the Chinese plains was about to rage once more.
The Imperial Army did not have a lot of time to become stronger!
As the people from Chivalry Alliance and the people from Wind Assault Tower left under Lin Xiao and Phantasmal Shadow, the mansion became a place solely for Lovely Land members and Happy.
There were plenty of people Happy was familiar with in the hall.
Most of these people were incredibly outstanding managers in Mu Clan in the world three years ago.
There was no need for him to even mention Thunderous Battle and Silver Wolf. Little North was still a Corpse Controller, but since he did not run into Happy, his luck was not so good. Even though he was in Inaction Realm, he was only about average strength. Knife, Thunder, and Bar were strong, but it had just been a short time since they joined the game, and they lacked blessings and the chances to become outstanding for the time being.
But he had to say that these people had already lost the best chance to have their strength jump by leaps and bounds. Once a player entered Inaction Realm, it was impossible for their training speed to become any faster, unless they received a fortuitous chance that was so great that it could allow them to be like Happy and fight against Evil King.
