"Everyone did a great job. At these levels and at these ages, all of you are truly geniuses." Zheng-Fu spoke with a proud expression about his Ten Young Demigods Squad.
"If it weren't for Young Master helping us all, we wouldn't be able to do well like this, sir!" Ba-Xie, a kid as old as Zheng-Fu, spoke respectfully and humbly.
"Yes, sir, Young Master, if not because of Young Master Zheng-Fu, we couldn't have come to this point. The very generosity with which you allow our families to live here is very good for us. Not just that, you also allow us to practice the martial arts. In my lifetime, I will serve you until the day of my death," the girl who liked the harp said with both respect and appreciation.
"That's right, Young Master!!!!!"
At the end of Long-Mei's voice, the rest of the kids agreed in unison, with a face that showed no less respect for Zheng-Fu than for her. Because Zheng-Fu gave them a lot, although his training was strenuous, everything was good for them.
"Well, you guys don't have to praise me anymore. As long as I've seen your great improvements, I'm happy. (How can he not be happy? The stronger this squad was, the more he would feel safe.) And today, I've prepared weapons and skills for all of you."
Finished speaking, Zheng-Fu took out various weapons and put them on the ground. Each was well packaged, except for the harp and flute, which were not included here. Zheng-Fu had already taken them to see two young women who had come to be teachers.
"Long-Mei and Hao-Mu-Liang, the two of you have to separate to practice with the instrument teachers I've prepared. And I'll provide your weapons later. Because the martial arts skills related to the harp and the flute were extremely rare, it's said to be almost nonexistent. But don't worry about that.
No matter how rare they are, I've already prepared them for you," Zheng-Fu said with a smile at the two kids who chose the type of musical instrument as their weapons.
"Yes, sir, Young Master!!!"
Both of them responded promptly without any questions or doubts. Then Zheng-Fu sent the two children away with two young women waiting to pick them up in front of the mansion. Zheng-Fu had them wait there since he was afraid that they would be shocked when they saw Jin-Tian.
He then turned to the boy who had chosen the fan as his weapon and said, "I see you're interested in books and various sciences. Then you come with me, and I'll teach you. As for the rest, I also have already prepared teachers for you. They'll soon come and pick you up for training."
Just as Zheng-Fu's voice ended, five figures suddenly appeared in the middle of the training yard.
"Respect, Young Master!!!"
"Good morning, come on time, so good!" When the five people arrived, they immediately greeted Zheng-Fu. And the five of them were Dan-Chun-Gu, Fu-Tao-Qi, Lang-Guang-Kuang, Yan-Yu, and Wu-Xiao.
"Alright, Ba-Xie and Da-Dong, the two of you who use swords, go and practice sword skills with Brother Dong-Kuang. Da-Luo, you use the halberd, so go and practice with Brother Dan-Chun-Gu and Brother Fu-Tao-Qi. Die-Song, you use the saber, so go and practice with Brother Yan-Yu. As for Ji-Xi and Xi-Lin, the two of you go to practice with Brother Lang-Guang-Kuang.
And lastly, Long-Huang-Er, you go to practice with Sister Wu-Xiao."
"Yes, sir!!!"
So as not to waste time, Zheng-Fu divided and matched the kids according to their aptitudes and weapon types to suit the people who would be the trainers. The people who came as training partners were not someone else, but they were his first generation of subordinates. And not only the ten kids who had trained with the first generation, Dong-Chen and his men also had to go as well.
And when he finished the division, they all dispersed to practice immediately. Zheng-Fu gave them only one and a half weeks of training because the upcoming maneuvers were only two weeks away. So they had half a week left to prepare for the final step before the clan maneuvers.
Two days had passed...
While Zheng-Fu was teaching Zu-Xi-Gong, he received a letter from Xiao-Jiang. The letter contained the following contents: At this moment, her auction house had become a very famous place due to the opening of the ore auction that Zheng-Fu gave. In addition, she had also hired several Nascent Soul stage masters to be the guards of the auction house.
And she also told him that on the day of the upcoming clan maneuvers, she would go too.
"If so, that's good, Sister Xiao-Jiang," Zheng-Fu muttered softly, a smile spreading across the corner of his mouth as if rejoicing at some achievement. And soon after, he received another letter sent from the City Lord with a wooden box.
"Huh… What did the City Lord send to me?" Zheng-Fu looked puzzled and looked at the wooden box he had acquired. This wooden box was about the size of a sword. As Zheng-Fu thought and examined it with his psychic, he found that inside the box contained monster energy, so he tried to open it.
"Sabre!!!?"
He opened the box and found that inside the wooden box was a sword. The sword itself did not have any patterns engraved. It was just a smooth but very shiny sword. And if you tried to examine it, you would find that the ore used to make it is of the highest grade, comparable to the ore that Zheng-Fu gave to the City Lord. And it also had the hidden energy of a monster.
Besides, if Zheng-Fu had not guessed wrongly, this sword would definitely have merged with a monster's mind. After knowing that, he put it into his dimensional ring before turning to open the letter to read.
[Letter: Young Master Zheng-Fu, I, Lao-Ying-Ba, thank you so much for giving me such a precious gift that I do not know how to repay you. So, I had someone bring the ore you gave to make a sword. And then let the sorcerer cast a Monster Mind Mergence spell. I hope Young Master Zheng-Fu will like it. But if you do not like it, I will be happy to find something you prefer instead.]
Inside, the letter explained the sword he had acquired. And the general matters caused by the items that Zheng-Fu gave the City Lord. The one thousand medium-level Qi Stones made the City Lord's forces increasingly stronger in a short time. Besides City Lord himself, he was able to break through from the fifth level of the Golden Core stage to the second level of the Nascent Soul stage within a week.
Moreover, his subordinates, including the general, had also advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.
"No need to thank me, City Lord. Anyway, I need your help in return. Huh huh huh!!!" Zheng-Fu muttered again after reading the letter to the end. And his expression made Zu-Xi-Gong, who was sitting and looking at him, feel goosebumps. The kid did not dare to say anything but lowered his head and read a big book that Zheng-Fu gave him.
Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding ding ding!!!
Woo woo woo! Woo woo woo! Woo woo woo woo woooo!!!
After almost a week, the two kids who had practiced playing the harp and the flute could finally play simple songs. The two could also play in harmony with each other. Even though they were just simple songs, they still sounded beautiful.
Clap clap clap clap!!!
"Very good! The two of you played very beautifully. Unlike me, even though I practiced a bit, I still can't play well (-*-)."
The clap suddenly rang out after the two kids finished their playing. And when they turned around, they saw that the one who clapped for them was Zheng-Fu. Zheng-Fu had arrived earlier, but he saw the two happily playing, so he did not interrupt and waited for them to finish, then spoke up with admiration.
Respect, Master!
Respect, Young Master!
"At ease, everyone," Zheng-Fu raised his hand and told the four to relax. Then he turned to the two women and said, "How about the things are? Did these two kids cause any trouble for you?" Zheng-Fu asked with a worried look on his face.
"Not at all, sir! They're both very good at them. Shortly after teaching, they understood very well. Besides, they can also perform together in harmony. If only they had more time, they'd definitely be the best harp and flute players. But it's a pity that we'll have to leave soon, so we probably won't be able to teach them anymore."
"Are you guys interested in staying here? I think there may be many more people in my clan who want to learn how to play instruments. If the two of you don't…"
"Can we do that, sir!!?" suddenly, before Zheng-Fu finished speaking, the two young women asked in unison with their expected expressions because they were actually starting to feel very fond of this place, whether it was the environment or the people. Everyone here was so friendly, unlike when they were at the brothel.
"Of course, you can be here, including your families, the two sisters." Zheng-Fu nodded with a friendly smile at them.
And when the two young women heard it, they burst into tears unconsciously with appreciation before one of them said, "We'd love to be here, sir, but our sisters at the brot..." The woman made a sad face when she mentioned her sisters at the brothel because they were sold as prostitutes. If they were going to get them out, they had to pay for them, and they did not have that much money.
Thump!!!
"There are a million monster crystal coins on this cash card. I hope it's enough to help your sisters. After you've finished teaching, I'll have my people take you to pick up your sisters." Zheng-Fu understood what she was worried about. Even though he was a child and never went to the brothel, he exactly knew what it would take to get people out of there. Mmm-hmm!!! Mmm-hmm!!!
"Thank you, Young Master!!! Thank you so much, sir!!!"
The two girls even cried out loud. They never expected Zheng-Fu to be this kind, to the point of giving them a million monster crystal coins. Even though he did not know if they were telling the truth, that made them respect and worship him, and they promised to do everything he ordered to repay this favor.
"All right, for the two of you, now that you can play the song well, try to play these songs." At the end of his words, Zheng-Fu handed the two kids the textbooks, both of which contained the tactical skills for the two instruments that Zheng-Fu invented.
The harp skill was called 'Figure Penetrating Harp skill,' while the flute skill was called 'Reverberating Flute skill.' Both of these skills were at the medium level of the middle stages.
"Yes, sir, Young Master," the two of them responded without asking, as usual, then opened the received textbooks and immediately began to play according to them.
