Chapter 926: Chapter 926
Because the territory was situated in the middle of a mountain and was not particularly special, and because all the Magical Beasts and Giants nearby had been cleared out, the changes in the terrain did not arouse any commotion.
It wasn’t until noon that a group of people arrived at the location, causing a sensation among everyone. This group was not only made up of the academy’s own army, but the academy had also brought along some regular students and a few journalists. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
In an instant, all sorts of information about the territory and the surrounding terrain flew out and were instantly spread throughout the world market, reaching the ears of all Professionals around the globe. Everyone knew that a new territory had emerged.
"Did you hear? Our Capital Academy has gained a second territory."
"You just heard? I have a friend who already went there to see it. It’s true, and it’s a fourth-tier territory. I heard that this territory was built by the students of our academy without any support from the academy."
A person nearby said with pride, "Humph, those from the League Comprehensive Academy always said we were inferior to them, without a second territory. Let’s see what they have to say now. They always brag and show off, not knowing we’re very low-key. I heard their territory received the academy’s support, but it has only been upgraded to third-tier so far."
The students discussed heatedly. Initially, some people from the League Comprehensive Academy came forward to argue, but as the news spread, more and more people from the League Academy shut their mouths, and later, they did not dare to enter the world market.
Because once they came in, they would be surrounded by a group from Capital University, who would then relentlessly mock and sneer at them. However, they had bragged at the beginning, now the tables were turned on them.
For a while, the faces of the people from the League Comprehensive Academy were totally lost.
Even the leaders of their academy had a hard time keeping a pleasant expression upon hearing this news. Initially, it was their responsibility to secretly promote this matter; although it was not widely broadcast, the upper class all knew about it.
Now, they had been slapped in the face. The most crucial aspect was the interests of this world, which were later to be distributed based on the territories. Their second territory was not significantly valued for development, even somewhat suppressed. Most importantly, the student who built that territory wasn’t as powerful as Du You.
In such circumstances, the more it came to the later stages, the harder it was to improve the territory’s experience. Now, getting it to third-tier was already a challenge. But given the location of the Capital University’s territory, it could definitely be upgraded to fifth-tier.
Seeing that their main territory was about to reach the fifth-tier, the upper class of League Comprehensive Academy couldn’t possibly feel comfortable, considering that Capital University would have two fifth-tier territories. In fact, people from other academies were also stunned now.
"I found out, found out! Our territory is called Central City, and the lord is Du You."
"What, Du You! No way, wasn’t he always at the salt lake... I know now, he must have been involved in the battle at the salt lake to enhance his prestige, thereby gaining territory experience for upgrading. No wonder, I wondered how a Loose Practitioner like him would go to the front lines at the salt lake, so that was his real intention."
"If you ask me, our leaders are impressive. They must have known this all along but kept it hidden, preparing this territory in the shadows. Humph, let those from League Comprehensive Academy brag; now they know who the boss is."
This time, it really let them breathe a great sigh of relief. Of course, about these speculations, Du You would not clarify, and those leaders from the academies certainly wouldn’t discuss such matters either.
By taking credit for these achievements, they only benefited themselves. As for Du You, naturally, he had shifted the pressure onto the school leaders. Otherwise, such heavy pressure would have a significant impact on himself.
"This is bad, really bad, Boss Liu, many of us, many of us are thinking of leaving. They want to join Du You."
Liu Xianglong’s face sank slightly: "What nonsense, although he also has a territory, we have already formed a massive chain of interests here, and the world we are in surpasses the level of this world, so there’s no need to worry."
"But Boss, we just found out that Central City has a Skill Hall, and it seems there is also a Heritage Hall."
"What? How could this be?" Liu Xianglong, who was initially feeling withstandable, suddenly turned pale. How could things have turned out this way? He was supposed to be the most outstanding person in the academy.
He had his own territory, and if it developed well in the future, it could become either a company or the foundation of an organization; he could completely use this territory to reach the pinnacle of the world, just by rallying a group of students as the initial workforce.
But now, a sudden change had occurred. Du You, emerging out of nowhere with incredible strength, was definitely not someone he could compete with. Originally, since Du You didn’t have a territory, he was just a Loose Practitioner, and Liu Xianglong wouldn’t spare him a glance.
But now, it was different. Not only did he possess his own territory, but also, with this opportunity, he would soon reach fifth-tier. By that time, the share of the world’s benefits he could divide with this territory would be enormous.
A completely controlled fifth-tier world would be of great help to those who hadn’t surpassed fifth-tier yet. Not to mention, in this world, there were also territories from the academies, and the atmosphere in the academies wasn’t too cold or harsh.
What Liu Xianglong found unbearable was, Du You actually had a Skill Hall; a Skill Hall was indeed the core of a big organization to consolidate people’s hearts. With a Skill Hall, evolving skills after the fourth-tier could rely on the Skill Hall for enhancement. Without a Skill Hall, it was like a rootless duckweed, and such a territory could hardly support the development of a large company.
Originally, Liu Xianglong aimed for this world with a higher drop rate, hoping to use this world to obtain a set of blueprints for a Skill Hall. Who would have thought that he missed out, and now this terrible news had arrived.
As for the Heritage Hall, its significance to an organization was absolutely no less important than that of a Skill Hall. With a Heritage Hall, one could cultivate their own loyal subordinates from ordinary people.
Not only could they rapidly complete their professional advancement at lower levels, but their loyalty would also be higher. With such a force of his own training, his territory already possessed the makings of a large organization.
"Boss Liu, what should we do? We can’t keep going on ."
The attraction of these two buildings was simply too great; at this rate, his territory might soon be left with no one. Students from the academy and some people from nearby would definitely rush headlong into Du You’s territory.
