Sam's eyes are literally sparkling as he looked at the yards and yards of the green crystal in the estate.

It is indeed called impact crystal, and even in the material catalogue he read in the Divine dimension, not many uses regarding this item are mentioned. At most, these can be used for some surprise attack.

But Sam wouldn't agree to that point.

As far as he was concerned, there is no material which is useless just the right person didn't get to use it for the right purpose.

And Sam happened to see many possibilities with these crystals.

For him, one hundred fifty million is not a lot. He earned quite a huge sum from his businesses as well as looting the Black water Count city branches which was more than 120 million altogether.

And the Marquis city branch even earned him over 300 million in spirit stones alone.

What is the point of him earning all this money if he didn't get to spend it? And seeing that there is such a profitable mineral which could multiply his profits coming over, he didn't even need to worry about this spending.

So, Sam immediately finished the deal and all the procedures are finished. So, they went to roam around the city.

In the evening, they went directly to the newly bought estate and stayed inside the only mansion that is present.

That evening, the General has two people reporting in his mansion. His estate has many houses and all of them belong to his special squad who he specially trained and can be called his disciples.

The first report is that the estate which he has a lot of trouble selling was finally sold. He needed his money really badly.

He planned to give his special squad which consisted of twenty Great stage and thirty Novice stages a new set of weapons.

All these people are commoner with high talent which he handpicked. All of them are in the age group of 20 to 35.

Due to their recent break throughs, he felt that it is his obligation to reward them and need a lot of money for that

Even though, he as a Nascent expert and the General does have enough salary or more likely called as resources allocated to him for his cultivation, he was still short on cash. After all, he planned to gift them with a lot of pills, weapons and new set of armours, specially designed for one's own requirements. Everything tailor made for them.

And there are not many ways for him to get a quick cash and he couldn't wait for the next quota of his resources and with his pride as general he certainly cannot

So, he planned to sell his long-forgotten estate and now only he recognised the problem with the estate. But he cannot back down and he immediately went to look for Golden Horse company.

He used his authority a little and acted stubborn for the sake of his students and thus made them accept this job.

There are no results for a long time.

Thus, when he heard that someone bought the land, he was happy. But the second report instantly soured his mood.

The subordinate reported that Sam and Watt didn't stay in any inn, but bought a house.

"Who sold a house to him? Didn't you make it clear to the seller?" He asked rather furiously.

But the subordinate was also at a loss.

"Sir, the person who sold the house is a Nascent stage cultivator and also a Rank 5 Architecture Artisan from the tower and the house he sold is your estate."

General, immediately shut his mouth and his forehead was filled with black lines.

He is the one who is supposed to be making things difficult to Sam, not offering him a house to buy.

He didn't even know how to react to the situation. Dismissing the subordinates, he was completely immersed in his thoughts and after a long and hard thought, he finally muttered.

"Anyway, I milked 150 million away from him, that land is worthless and the living environment is not any good. It is an absolute waste."

Only now, did he feel better, but this very thought will slap his face so hard in the future that he would rather not get a memory loss than remember such situation.

The next day, Sam left Watt in the Estate and gave him a large amount to spirit stones to enjoy himself.

When he went to their assigned building, all of them are looking at him weirdly.

Philip and Jack and came to him and greeted him.

When he asked them about what is happening, the answer really gave him some new understanding of the General's pettiness.

Yesterday night, Blue fire went to all of them and clearly warned that the competition would be something related to forming teams and that is also voluntary. So, they are given a warning that no one should join Sam's team or they would suffer.

Sam shook his head with a chuckle.

Blue fire and Zeke are looking at him but were surprised by the unexpected smile.

After some time, they were summoned to the grounds of the estate and a total of two hundred candidates assembled.

Sam saw Nicholas and both of them waved at each other.

General Spark is standing on a big stage with some middle-aged men standing behind him. His back is straight and his burly physique while that aura of a commanding presence as if he was forcing everyone to follow absolute obedience.

He is a General indeed. Sam felt impressed and he could feel some respect for him

"Welcome everyone.

You all are the candidates who are selected to the next phase of tests to get a life changing opportunity.

In this stage of the competitions, the duration is for 18 months.

The first 16 months will be divided into two stages.

And those two stages are Military and Business. The last two months will be announced after the first two stages are over and required eliminations are over.

Now before I explain anything more, for into teams, I don't care how many members are in a team, but it should be even numbered. You have ten minutes. You can be a team member with people from your own territory or even from the other territories."

All this time, General Spark looked at Sam. He wants to see if he would have any teammates and guess what he was surprised.

Because, there are a not one, but five teammates who came to him.

And the first one is Philip and he has a mischievous smile on his face followed by Jack, Hawk, Kelly and Drew.

Ray silently separated from them.

Sam didn't think that five of them would come. He only thought, Jack and Philip would surely come as for Kelly, he didn't know if she would.

Jack and him have been through a lot so he would come as for Philip, honestly Sam felt that Philip is more of a friend to him than Jack, it is just that they are not close enough. Both of them are not at a stage to share everything with each other.

Maybe the day Philip finally decides on what to learn in the Artisanship, they could talk.

As for Kelly, maybe there is still some stupid infatuation left and for Hawk and Drew he couldn't think of many possibilities except that they are here because Sam helped them a lot in the previous stages.

Sam didn't think much and he wouldn't be surprised if everyone didn't come to him except Philip and Jack.

After ten minutes, the teams were formed.

All the teams formed are the teams of ten, every territory has twenty candidates which made two teams from each territory. The only odd team is Sam's because there are only six and the remaining four were added to the Southern Star city's team.

And the four people that are added to southern star city team are Zeke and Blue fire and two of their noble lackeys from Blue flame city.

General seemed to have pulled strings in a lot of places just to get back for his Grandson.

Sam last all the respect he had for him in an instant.

General Spark checked that everyone was done, then he spoke.

"Now that everyone is set. Every team will be divided into two. Half of you will go to military in the first stage and stay there for eight months, the second one will start a business, and you have to earn money in a legal way.

After eight months, you will change the positions, the first half will take over the business or conduct new businesses and earn money while the second half will be entering the military.

The team points will be given c.u.mulatively and the team members themselves will be distributing themselves among them.

As for how you get the points, you won't be knowing until the final evaluation.

But do remember, in the Military the instructors and the superiors have right to deduct your points for your misconduct and in the Business Phase, there would be a tight surveillance on you and any underhanded means used will be charged by deduction of your points.

You divide into two teams and I would decide on who would participate in military and who would participate in the business first."
