Chapter 1357: Chapter 1357

Looking at those Ghost Warriors hidden around him, Du You felt extremely satisfied.

He could easily sense the presence of these Ghost Warriors, but it wasn’t so easy for others, even other fifth-tier individuals. Unless they were close by, it would be very difficult to detect these fellows.

In this world, Ghost Warriors could be said to possess a very strong deterrent force. The threat to warships and mechas was still within controllable limits, but if they were used for assassinating enemy leaders, the danger would be significant.

This branch of the armed forces was indeed fortunate, as it was unique to his side and had not appeared anywhere else. Sera was lucky; during a previous battle command, she completed a mission by chance and obtained this type of force. Now bringing them out was just the right time to address the specialized force needs of his own territory.

And this type of force, Du You would definitely not sell.

This month, the territory had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Thanks to Du You’s previous destruction of the enemy’s seventh-tier interstellar fortress, his reputation greatly increased, and in turn, the prestige of his territory rose within the whole Star Ring Alliance.

Now, mention Du You and Harry Asteroid, and there’s no one who doesn’t know of them, it’s common knowledge.

Although it didn’t have a specific use, Du You, now a public figure, wouldn’t be easily touched by the upper class without special reasons. Moreover, with more attention, his influence constantly grew.

The consecutive big moves had greatly increased the experience points of Du You’s territory, and it had now risen by more than one-third. This rate of experience gain was even faster than his Undead World territory.

But Du You knew this was just the surface, it wouldn’t be so easy to increase experience points in the future.

However, after selling his sixth-tier warships, he attracted even more attention. It should be noted that sixth-tier warships had indeed been sold by others before, but such forces were definitely few. Du You’s method of trading them simply to strengthen his territory was truly unprecedented, arousing significant interest in him from many.

Last month, Du You sold ten sixth-tier warships to various people. After testing, they found that the Black Wind Main Battle Warships were very powerful, even stronger than many sixth-tier warships currently in service.

Furthermore, based on the contract, Du You sold another ten sixth-tier warships to the academy last month. After the academy publicized it, the news couldn’t be hidden. Now everyone knew that there was a student in his fifth year at the academy who had reached the sixth tier.

Not only that, he also had a sixth-tier technology-type territory. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩

Now, whether it was students from the academy or outsiders, those who followed the technology path were frantically converging on Du You’s company, desperately wanting to join. As a result, Li Minglu became busy with work again.

As we all know, for technology-type Professionals, reaching the sixth tier is usually the peak. Thus, a sixth-tier technology-type territory is definitely a top territory in the tech side. Joining such a territory is enough for one’s future growth.

Moreover, since this territory hadn’t been established for very long, it didn’t have many personnel. Joining now could mean becoming part of the upper class in the future, which was even more appealing. Du You even later found that many people had resigned from their jobs to join his company. Li Minglu’s strategy towards these talents was to welcome all.

In addition, some people from other types had also joined. Reaching the seventh tier wasn’t that easy, the majority of people could never attain it in their lifetimes, and they were aware of that.

The sixth-tier territory also had a Skill Hall. Although it was technology-sided, the Skill Hall didn’t discriminate against any type of Professional; all skills could be refined there, and a sixth-tier territory was enough for their use.

Du You himself hadn’t expected that, with the public disclosure of the first sixth-tier territory, his company’s standing began to rise as if lifted by the tide.

It was as if overnight, his territory went from being somewhat known to becoming famous.

This day, Du You held a newspaper brought back by Ke Jisi. That’s right, even in this era, newspapers still existed, it was curious how that came to be.

"I didn’t expect it. We have actually become a first-rate power," Du You said, looking at the newspaper with some resignation.

This power evaluation was an underground rating. Although many hidden and illegal forces weren’t included, it remained highly authoritative. Unexpectedly, this time his company was also rated.

Although the ranking might not be very high, it was approaching the middle among first-rate forces. The reason seemed to be due to his great potential and youth; if it were about power, he might not have reached this step yet.

Of course, some evaluated that he had hidden a sixth-tier territory, but this hadn’t been verified and couldn’t be used as an evaluation criterion.

"Great, we are also a first-rate power now, let’s see who dares to mess with us in the future."

Lin Yucha knocked on her sister’s head without good spirit, "Don’t get too excited. It’s just a superficial first-rate power. Who knows about the super first-rates. Look, the academy is also rated among the first-rate, but our academy has seventh-tier powerhouses, and not just one or two."

Lin Yushi nodded a bit aggrievedly.

"That’s right, the hidden powerful forces are far more than we know, and our current strength is still weak."

Du You secretly calculated in his heart. Even though his own power was still weak, in reality, he wasn’t weak anymore, otherwise he wouldn’t be rated here. This newspaper was specifically for Professionals, and common people wouldn’t know about this list.

Du You looked at the rating rules and discovered that to be considered a first-rate power, one needed to have sixth-tier powerhouses and a sixth-tier territory. Glancing at the number of first-rate forces, it seemed quite a few, but compared to the total number of Professional forces, it didn’t seem that numerous. To be included on this list was also a recognition of his own strength.

"Heh, the evaluation of Dark Night Mercenary Group is actually above us," Du You said.

Du You looked at Dark Night Mercenary Group, rated higher than himself, because they had been established for longer and accumulated more power. At the same time, the evaluators hadn’t fully factored in Lin Yushi and Lin Yucha.

Since both were absolute followers, the evaluators didn’t believe the two slaves could hold much power.

"Hmph, dare to look down on us," Lin Yushi waved her fist in anger after noticing this detail.

"This is actually quite good, we can hide our power even better," Du You expressed without any anger at all, he was indeed hoping to hide a bit more.
