A day had passed and everything fell back to normal once again. The people in the region continued to talk about how the Tian-Tang clan lost many men in the attacks. However, even though some other clans saw the opportunity to attack the Tian-Tangs, Zheng-Fu's announcement and how the clan countered the Zhang clan stopped them from attacking…

Even though Zheng-Fu's clan was in a recovering phase, the clan still had Tong-Kuang and Dan-Chun-Gu's group who were exceptional martial artists to protect the clan. They even put the clan in a safer place…

Not only that, but Zheng-Fu also had the Red Jaguar Monster as a servant. The monster possessed the seventh level of the Golden Core stage. The group and the monster made the Tian-Tang clan equal to the number one clan in the region. The Tian-Tang might even be stronger than the rest…

The story that Lao-Chu joined hands with the Cult of Savage Evil reached everyone in the clan. They all condemned and cursed Lao-Chu for his actions with anger and hatred. Everyone lost their sons and family members in those attacks that Lao-Chu brought to the clan…

Zheng-Fu's family, on the other hand, was praised more than before. Kong-Shi was appointed to be the great Elder in replacing Lao-Chu, but he refused to take the position. However, everyone around him insisted that he took Lao-Chu's place, so he had to eventually…

At the clan's grand hall, all Elders and related people gathered for a meeting. Mo-Zi sat in the main seat with Kong-Shi by his side. The seat that Kong-Shi was at used to be Lao-Chu's…

Rustle!

"Respecting the leader of the clan and all Elders!" Kong-Shi stood up while cupping his fists and bowed slightly in front of everyone. He said, "I would like to thank you for selecting me to take the great Elder position. I'm humbly taking the position and will do my best." Kong-Shi said while pounding his chest to show his determination…

Rustle!

"Please don't be too humble, brother Kong-Shi. We all know that you are capable and fit for this position!?" Hai-Gu stood up and complimented Kong-Shi with delight…

"That's right!"

A lot of Elders also agreed with Hai-Gu and started to praise Kong-Shi as a great Elder. Zheng-Fu was also at the meeting. He looked around and was pleased with how everyone supported his father in his new position…

Kong-Shi who was standing in the meeting room did not know how to react to the tremendous support from everyone. He then turned to look at Zheng-Fu before taking a long exhale and smiled at Zheng-Fu…

Kong-Shi realized that he got to this point because of the help from Zheng-Fu. Tong-Kuang and the monster servant that possessed a high energy level also helped him. He benefited a lot from Zheng-Fu and his team…

"I appreciate everyone who supports me. As a new great Elder, I'd do everything to keep our clan strong. These are the lower-level Qi energy stones. There are 15,000 of them…"

Kong-Shi said while presenting the Qi energy stones that Zheng-Fu gave him to everyone in the room. There were two bags of stones. The first bag contained 15,000 Qi energy stones. They were aimed to be given to the warriors in the clan, so they could gain back their strengths quickly…

Another bag contained 3,000 Qi energy stones. Zheng-Fu expected to give these stones to Tong-Tieng and Tong-Lang. He wanted them to create a secret unit to work as the clan's secret weapon. The people who worked as the monitors for the clan mostly had an ability that resembled the ability that Lang-Guang-Kuang had…

Lang-Guang-Kuang was skillful in disguising, assassination, and Qinggong techniques. He also moved tremendously fast. These abilities were perfect for a secret weapon unit. Zheng-Fu also gave other necessary related techniques for the unit to his father…

"15,000 Qi energy stones!?"

When everyone heard that amount of the lower-level Qi energy stones, they widened their eyes with shock. They had to exclaim instantly because it took 10 to 15 years of harvesting that amount from the Cave of the Immortals…

"I also would like to propose for us to establish a secret unit. I want Lang-Guang-Kuang to oversee the unit with the assistance of Elder Tong-Tieng and Tong-Lang. What you do think about it?" Kong-Shi said in a determined voice, then he turned to look at everyone. He stopped his gaze at Mo-Zi to ask for his opinion about his idea…

When Tong-Tieng and Tong-Lang heard the idea, they looked at one another for a moment before turning to Lang-Guang-Kuang who stood behind Zheng-Fu. Lang-Kwang-Kwang looked horrifying and mysterious. However, both Tong-Tieng and Tong-Lang looked at him with admiration eyes. Then they turned to Kong-Shi while standing up and said…

Rustle!

"We have no problem at all. Master Lang-Guang-Kuang was a martial artist whom we admire. We especially respect him and his Qingong and disguising techniques." Tong-Tieng and Tong-Lang said while smiling. They both felt extremely excited about the idea…

When Lang-Guang-Kuang heard the two Elders, he was startled out of surprise. This was the first time that he heard admiration from others. He felt utmost emotional for it. He turned to thank Zheng-Fu with his gaze…

Zheng-Fu also turned to him and smiled at him. Lang-Guang-Kuang knew that he owed every progress and admiration in life to Zheng-Fu. He walked towards the group. Then he cupped his fists while bowing and said…

"I, Lang-Guang-Kuang, will do my best to oversee the secret unit. Even though I'm not from the Tian-Tang clan, I'll dedicate my life to the clan!" Lang-Guang-Kuang said while pounding his chest with pride…

"I have nothing against the idea. So, just go ahead and make it happen. Please take care of everything for me, great Elder Kong-Shi." Mo-Zi replied calmly. He turned to look at Zheng-Fu who was sitting and smiling…

*I guess everything falls into places this way because of him. Well, it's just unbelievable that a 10-year-old could make all these things happen!*

"Thank you, the leader of the clan! I, Kong-Shi, will do my best!"

After the meeting, everyone scattered to do their jobs. Kong-Shi gave the Qi energy stones to each one. They received the stones according to their energy level. The people who were lower than the Qi Gathering stage would be helped to move on to the Foundation Building stage immediately…

The people who broke through to the Foundation Building stage would be put in an energy test to get more Qi energy stones. And when they got to the Foundation Building stage, they could choose a mid-level fighting skill to work on…

At the moment, the number of monsters in the Forest of the Monsters was down to almost zero. Zheng-Fu and his men were the ones who killed those monsters when he had to gather the Qi energy stones for his mother's ransom. Now, the monster's supply was less than the high demand of monster hunting…

All the clans in the region were not happy about this. The smaller and the mid-sized clans got together with all the sects to report the issue to the four influential clans…

The four influential clans held a meeting without inviting the Tian-Tang clan. They intended to make this agenda a secret, but it got out anyway…

The reviving of the Tian-Tang clan was something urgent. The clan had to announce the hiring of new warriors to make up for the lost ones in the recent attacks. Many people were interested in applying after the announcement…

At the entrance of the clan, a lot of people came to apply for the warrior positions. The only condition of the application was that interested people must be at least in the Qi Gathering stage. However, the pay for the position would not be that high…

The benefits of becoming the warriors of the clan were that anyone who stayed up to one year would get to practice one technique of mid-level fighting skills. Anyone who stayed up to three years would have a chance to do another technique of the same level…

The whole conditions invited a lot of people to apply for the position. Most of the people who came were at the first and second levels of the Qi Gathering stage. Tong-Kuang was the person who was in charge of the hiring…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

Tong-Kuang heard footsteps from behind and he could detect that it was Zheng-Fu who was coming. So, he rushed to turn around to pay respect to his young master…

"Respecting young master!"

"Greeting! How are things, brother Tong-Kuang? Do we have a lot of applicants today?" Zheng-Fu asked while tilting his head to check out the queue of the applicants…

"There are about 200 of them today, young master. Most of them are either in the first or the second level of the Qi Gathering stage. Only 10 of them are at the third level, sir!"

Tong-Kuang rushed to take out a record book to report to Zheng-Fu about the number of the applicants…

"200!?"

Zheng-Fu was surprised by the number. He did not expect to see this many people. He thought that a lot of people might not want to join the clan because the clan had suffered a lot of attacks lately. He expected something less than 100…

200 was a big number. It was much more than he expected. Zheng-Fu started to contemplate the budget for the warriors. He thought it made sense that he used mid-level fighting techniques to attract the new warriors. It was good that he thought about the budget problem in advance…

The applicants wondered who Zheng-Fu was when they saw that Tong-Kuang paid respect to him. They did not understand why Tong-Kuang respected Zheng-Fu that much because they could not detect Zheng-Fu's energy level…

"Who is that kid?" A big man with scars all over his body asked out of curiosity…

"I guess he is one of the sons of the important people in the clan. He probably worries about how he looks. Look at his skin." A skinny applicant who had a spear as a weapon said while laughing quietly…

"I think you should keep it down. I heard that one of the young masters of the clan that's called Zheng-Fu is great. And no one knows yet what he looks like!"

A chubby applicant said while showing that he was afraid of Zheng-Fu. He also admired him because he heard that he destroyed the Zhang clan in the attack. His clan was bullied by the Zhang clan regularly, so he hated the Zhangs. Zheng-Fu's ability to fight the Zhang clan prompted him to apply for the warrior position at the Tian-Tang clan…
