Chapter 1608

1608 Arrangement! (1)
Wang Teng chatted with his elders for a long time, getting a better grasp of their current conditions.
At the same time, he understood the current cultivation progress of all the people on Earth.
Wu Xingyun said, “Don’t worry. We sent a few more batches of talents into the universe after you left. They’re making good progress; I’m sure they can advance to the planetary stage some time soon.
“As for the older generations, most of them reached the planetary stage. We have enough manpower now.”
“Using our own people is still the safest.” The hero nodded.
“That’s right.” The elders also nodded in agreement.
None of them was Wang Teng. Their gifted junior had status, identity, ability, and talent. He could suppress others but they couldn’t.
Have them tackle a celestial warrior and they could have trouble controlling him.
Only the warriors born on Earth would share the same vision and heart as them, so they could have an easier time completing tasks.
“The younger generations are growing up well, right? How many of them have attained the planetary stage?” the hero asked.
“Ji Xiuming, Han Zhu and some of them have already crossed this threshold. There are twelve in total,” Wu Xingyun replied.
“Not bad. They are as talented as the warriors in the greater universe. They just need some time to mature,” said the hero with a smile.
“Really?” Hong Tianshi’s eyes lit up.
“Of course. I’ve fought with them already; I know better than anyone.”
Commander Yong, who had been quiet all this while, said, “That’s great. This means that the only difference between our talents and the ones out there is the resources available. We have the chance to catch up with them.”
The bigwig’s full name was Yong Lianggong, while Commander Long’s full name was Long Changkong, and Old Han’s was Han Ping.
They started using their real names when they started interacting with others in the great expanse.
“Speaking of resources, I have an idea,” Wang Teng said.
“Oh?” The eyes of the martial warriors lit up. They quickly asked, “What idea is that?”
“We have many masters of alchemy, blacksmithing, runes, and Force chefs, right?” The hero smiled.
“Do you mean…” Han Ping caught the gist of it.
“There’s a huge and powerful faction in the universe called the Secondary Career Alliance. Have you heard of it?” The young earl asked.
Wu Xingyun replied after some hesitation, “I did hear about it when I was outside completing my mission. However, I don’t know much as I didn’t pay much mind.”
The hero explained in detail, “The Secondary Career Alliance is an organization with affiliates from all secondary careers. That is how they protect their interests; they are actually among the greatest factions in the universe. They exist in all parts of the universe and are as famous as the Universe Bank and the Mercenaries Alliance…”
“I see. I didn’t think such an organization would be as massive and powerful.” Han Ping was surprised.
“Are you thinking about our people who excel in those careers to join that faction?” Wu Xingyun and the others guessed Wang Teng’s plan.
“That’s right. You should know how profitable secondary careers are; they will be more valued in the universe,” said the hero.
“This is a good way to solve our resource problem. However, it’s not easy to join them, right?” Wu Xingyun had his doubts.
“That’s right. I heard that it’s difficult to join; you have to pass various tests. There’s still a huge gap between our people and those in the rest of the universe. They may not be able to pass,” Long Changkong said.
“Don’t worry about that. I’ve already joined and am a three-field grandmaster. I’ve befriended many grandmasters. Getting our people inside shouldn’t be an issue,” Wang Teng replied.
“What? you’re already a member?” Han Ping and the others were shocked.
“That’s right. I needed some external help when I first reached the Great Qian Empire, so I joined the Secondary Career Alliance back then.”
“That’s great. This will make things easier for us,” Yong Lianggong said excitedly.
Hong Tianshi suddenly exclaimed, “Wait, did you say that you’re a three-field grandmaster? Did I hear it wrong?”
“You’re not wrong. I’m indeed a three-field grandmaster.” The hero nodded. “How else could I build a strong network in a short period of time? Many look forward to befriending me because of my identity.”
“Gasp!” There was a collective intake of air; all of them stared at the young hero as if he were a ghost.
There was only one thought in their minds at the moment.
How does this guy cultivate?
His martial arts improved at lightning speed, allowing him to get first place in the League of Talents. That alone required much of his time and effort.
And yet, he still had time and energy to improve his secondary skills and attain the grandmaster stage for all of them.
This was madness!
They knew that Wang Teng had practiced alchemy, blacksmithing, and rune inscriptions in the past. His proficiency was at master level.
However, the grandmaster level was entirely different. Such a jump couldn’t be achieved in just a day or two.
