One thousand five hundred supreme-class elites!

Happy was shocked by the number Ji Feng stated.

It had to be known that even when all the supreme-class elites from the supreme-class elites in Beijing were added together, they would just number between seven hundred to eight hundred people. This time, Happy had thought about using the rewards of the tournament to attract two hundred to three hundred supreme-class elites, and he would be satisfied with it. Then, he would slowly develop the other people within the sect, and he would be able to develop a batch of elites within a short period of time.

But he did not expect that the plan would progress so smoothly!

With just one tournament, Lovely Land had managed to discover more than one thousand supreme-class elites, and Ji Feng also told him that they also managed to get more than one hundred Master Level ironsmiths.

Once Ji Feng verified the news, he could not help but suck in a deep breath!

Under Ji Feng’s surprised gaze, Happy slowly straightened his body, and a cunning spark flashed in his eyes.

Then, he fell silent.

In truth, at the moment he managed to send the Wild Wolves retreating, aside from thinking about using ultimate techniques, divine weapons, demon vessels, and statuses to attract the Chinese players. At the same time, he ordered another batch of people to be in charge of another plan.

After all, if he just solicited people into joining his sect, he would not be able to gain a firm foothold in the Chinese plains.

What Happy hoped for the most was that Lovely Land could have its very own group of supreme-class elites. They were to be supreme-class elites that were born and bred in Lovely Land.

Hence, at the same time they set up a good and fair environment for them to cultivate supreme-class elites, Happy had Phoenix Dances to be secretly in charge of the students from the University of South China. He gave her great resources to make up to the people from the university and helped them become stronger.

With the dual help from Ji Feng and Phoenix Dances, the operations on the major and minor platforms ran smoothly, and he believed that soon, he would be able to obtain results.

“Sect Master?”

“Hmm?”

He snapped out of his daze, and when Happy turned his head around, he saw Ji Feng’s slightly surprised and worried gaze.

“Sect Master, are you okay?”

Happy nodded and said, “Yeah. Having one thousand and five hundred supreme-class elites is completely against my expectations. By the looks of it, once the tournament ends, we can bring forward the plan we’ve set beforehand.”

After Ji Feng became the vice sect master of Lovely Land, he had returned to become the ingenious person once more. When he heard this, he quickly reacted to the situation. “Sect Master, are you saying that you’re going to activate the Imperial Army Plan ahead of schedule?”

“That’s right.” Happy nodded, gratified. He sent a private message. “Over this period of time, One Emperor has been doing well in West Region, but just now, he sent me a message saying that something major happened.”

“I’ve also heard about what happened in West Region.” Ji Feng’s tone fell, and he sighed. “Class One Hall has already been crippled by us, and the Wild Wolves forces in the countries in West Region have already been pretty much completely cleared. One Emperor contributed a lot in this, but none of us expected that Evil Emperor would send so many forces this time. He has practically sent half of his men to West Region…” He stopped talking for a moment before he continued, “Lovely Land has just been recently formed. Even though we are strong and countless people are envious of us, while we can fight against a supreme-class organization like Wild Wolves in the Chinese plains, once we’re out of the Chinese plains, we’ll be beyond our reach—”

“But now, we have one thousand and five hundred supreme-class elites. We might not be beyond our reach.” Happy interrupted Ji Feng’s words, and his tone was firm. “Evil Emperor wants to use this chance to reorganize the order of the countries in West Region. This is a chance for us!”

Ji Feng was shocked.

He knew that Happy might have come to his decision.

“If we’re going to fight outside the Chinese plains, then we’ll be engaged in a war of attrition. I’m afraid that we’re still not their opponents. Besides, Wild Wolves has a lot of supreme-class elites. If we send all our forces out, we’ll have no one in the Chinese plains, and Dream Clouds…”

Ji Feng’s worries were logical, but Happy was confident.

“Who told you that I’m going to fight head on against the Wild Wolves?” Happy smiled in a confident manner. “Help me be in charge of the sect. As for killing people… You don’t have to worry about that. After the tournament, give me the names of the one thousand and five hundred people. At the same time, ask whether this group of people are willing to join the Imperial Army and fight in West Region.”

“…Understood!”

Ji Feng received his orders resolutely.

Even though Happy had just asked him to ask a question, his orders was an indirect way of him stating that once the tournament was over, those who were willing to join the Imperial Army would have to go out to fight in West Region at any moment. And that date might be the second day after the tournament.

Happy gave a few more instructions. Most of the one hundred seats they just added had been filled up at that moment. Wandering Know-it-all also arrived on time.

Both of them quickly got up.

“Master!”

“Sect Master!”

Wandering Know-it-all was dressed in a Confucianism scholar’s robe. He took the initiative to greet them with a smile on his face. He appeared to be in a good mood.

The others might think that it was completely normal for these two people to share a good relationship, but those who were familiar with Wandering Know-it-all would know that Wandering Know-it-all had always been very indifferent. Even if he smiled, he did it in a reserved fashion. He would not be as enthusiastic as he was now.

Happy was the only one who knew that Wind Chimes must have definitely told Wandering Know-it-all the news.

She was receiving guidance from the sect master of Zither Sect. This great blessing was already set in stone for her. There was no way Wandering Know-it-all would not be happy.

Besides, he believed that Wandering Know-it-all already knew that Happy had the token of the grandmaster of Zither Sect. He also helped a Lovely Land member gain the legacy of the sect master of Zither Sect. Soon, she would definitely be a peerless elite.

Regardless of whether it was because of Wind Chimes or because it was because Happy already gained a status in the world of martial artists or some other reason, no one could blame Wandering Know-it-all for being so enthusiastic.

“Master, your presence brings honor to our tournament!”

“Hehe, Sect Master, you’re being too polite. Right now, I have the title of Lovely Land’s vice sect master. There’s no need for you to be so polite, since I’m just here for the fun as a member of the sect.”

“Haha! I was wrong, then! Please, sit here!”

Happy led Wandering Know-it-all to the seat beside him.

When Wandering Know-it-all arrived near Happy, he whispered, “Wind Assault Tower’s Phantasmal Shadow and Chivalry Sect’s Lin Xiao are here as well.”

“Oh?”

Happy cast a Ji Feng a glance. “We have two honored guests coming over personally. They’re being far too courteous to Lovely Land. Vice Sect Master Ji, please invite those two to the VIP seats.”

“Yes, Sect Master!”

Ji Feng instantly understood what he meant, and he brought out two messenger pigeons.

Soon, Phantasmal Shadow and Lin Xiao appeared together.

All four of them congratulated each other and exchanged pleasantries.

“Sect Master Happy, whenever you do something, it’s always shocking, and it always brings about extraordinary effects. I can’t catch up to you. This time, I came here to bask in your glory and to learn from you.”

“Alliance Master Lin, you’re far too polite!”

“He’s not being polite here. Look at the popularity of the tournament area… Forget the Chinese plains, even if we look at the whole world, aside from Lovely Land, no other organization can organize such a grand tournament.” Phantasmal Shadow’s voice was clear. She split up with Lin Xiao, and both of them sat by Happy and Wandering Know-it-all’s sides.

“It’s all because you were willing to do me a favor by showing up here.”

Happy’s words were just as appropriate and humble as ever.

“By the way, Sect Master Happy, I heard that something happened to One Emperor at West Region. The Wild Wolves seem to have dealt a heavy blow on him and are prepared to take back the lands in West Region they lost. After the tournament, do we need to do anything?”

“That’s right!” Lin Xiao put on a stern face and agreed to it. “One Emperor has shown the Chinese plains’ might and greatness in the countries in West Region. This time, the Chinese players are paying a lot of attention to what happened to him. Sect Master Happy, if you want to send forces to the countries in West Region, you must let me join. I’ve been wanting to fight against the Wild Wolves again for the longest time!”

His words were spoken boldly, firmly, and with great fighting spirit.

“I don’t think things are as simple as they appear.” Phantasmal Shadow did not immediately show her stance. Instead, she frowned a little to show a different opinion. “This time, the Wild Wolves organized a large group of supreme-class elites to gather in the countries in West Region. At the same time, they attacked One Emperor and all the Lovely Land members in West Region. On the surface, he seems to have announced his control over the countries in West Region and showed his strength, but I don’t think Evil Emperor has the need to do all this just to take down West Region.”

She stopped talking for a moment. Then, Phantasmal Shadow proposed a conspiracy theory. “Besides, based on the information given by Master Wandering Know-it-all, Evil Emperor is currently heading toward West Region. If the Wild Wolves attacked One Emperor so eagerly, they must have some grand plan that they don’t want anyone to know. It might be a plan against us, but it might also be a plan for themselves.”

This was the first time Lin Xiao heard this news. His expression changed a little. “Could the Wild Wolves want to stage a comeback by sending so many forces into West Region? Do they want to attack the Chinese plains?!”

The threat of more than one thousand supreme-class elites on the Chinese plains could be understood without any words.

These two people’s gazes were fixed on Happy’s face.

Right now, Happy was already worthy of the name of being the Chinese plains’ guardian. If the Wild Wolves wanted to stage a comeback, Happy had an inescapable duty, since he had with him the largest sect in the Chinese plains.

“Everyone, we can sit down and talk about this slowly when the tournament ends. Right now, the tournament has already started.”

Ji Feng clearly believed that this was not the right time to talk about such a serious topic. He butted in at an appropriate moment to attract the trio’s attention.

“You’re right.”

“My apologies. We were too anxious.”

Lin Xiao and Phantasmal Shadow both put on embarrassed looks.

Phantasmal Shadow changed the topic of conversation. “By the way, I heard that the former sect master of Chivalry Sect, Wind Void, is also participating in Lovely Land’s tournament. She also has a lot of people supporting her. Is that true, Sect Master Happy?”

Phantasmal Shadow looked excited and curious.

But when Lin Xiao heard Wind Void’s popularity, his expression turned dark, and he turned to the side.

Happy naturally noticed the strange look on Lin Xiao’s expression, so he nodded faintly and said, “Aside from Wind Void, the ninety-nine Lovely Land members who joined the tournament this time are also very strong. Tower Master, you’ll be able to see it soon. At that time, we’ll be the ones who will decide the final victor!”

“That’s good.”

Phantasmal Shadow had noticed the strange look on Lin Xiao’s expression when she mentioned Wind Void’s name, and she knew that she had said something wrong. She quickly went along the flow of conversation and moved the topic away from Wind Void.

“Honestly, I’m even more curious about the other two elites from Lovely Land.”

“Oh?” Happy was curious. “Honestly, over this period of time, I have been paying too little attention to the details of the tournament. I might not even know as much as you do, Tower Master Phantasmal Shadow. But if you’re curious about them, then they’re definitely not weak. Who might they be?”

As he spoke, he cast a glance at Ji Feng, who was beside him.

Ji Feng spoke at the perfect moment, “Tower Master Shadow, are you perhaps talking about the people who showed outstanding results during the pre-tournament spars? Are they Whirlwind Young Li and Orochimaru?”

“Yes, it’s them.” None of them noticed that when these two names were mentioned, a clear look of surprise appeared on Happy’s face.
