Chapter 334: Build the Sect

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In Baokang County Town, even if the three great sects had completely got out of the stage to compete for Shennongjia’s resources, the three local sects still did not get rid of their spectacular alliance!

Aside from clearing away some of the foreign sects and local sects who tried to strike when they were down, they announced that they had formed an alliance with Happy in Baokang Town in a very grand manner. They declared that in the future, there would be an alliance of four local sects in Baokang, and they would work together to act against all enemies who dared intrude upon their benefits and dignity.

The outsiders burst into an uproar, and all sorts of discussions rose.

“Four sects? Happy doesn’t seem to have joined any sect.”

“Are you outdated? Thunderous Battle has already built a sect in Baokang, and he brought people to join a feast in Shennong Restaurant. Absolute Nonsense was the host, and he booked the ground floor and the first floor. They did all this to form the alliance between the four sects. Whew, I heard that there were a lot of people who went there.”

“Thunderous Battle is building a sect? Here?”

“I wonder if we have a chance to join.”

Countless players gathered outside Shennong Restaurant because they were influenced by the rumors in the streets.

People came and went from the restaurant, which created a very lively scene. The entrance was guarded by the members of the three local sects, and no person unconcerned with the feast could get in easily. Only the members of the three local sects, Beautiful Robes Faction, and those with a clear “Mu” emblem on their chests could enter freely.

Even though the three sects had managed to defeat the three great sects and were full of high spirits, when they saw the players with the “Mu” emblem sewn on their chests, they still could not help but send them polite and admiring gazes.

As of then , there was only one person who could get the acknowledgement and respect from Jade Fox Palace, Righteous Sect, and Blood River Sect so easily. For the first time ever, he managed to get the highest standard of respect, which was being invited to the feast by three masters at the same time, and he made the great promise of having the sect members of Mu Clan share the resources points of the three local sects right before the three masters. From this alone, it was clear just how great was the status of the Mu Clan which had been just built on the west side of the town!

At that moment, a group of Wudang Sect members with extraordinary presences came to unite with them.

They cast a glance at the grand display outside the door and the three elites from the three local sects who stood guard at the entrance. Ouyang Qing did not slow down. He led his junior brothers and sisters, wrapped his fist in his palm, and walked over with a face full of smiles.

“I, Wudang Sect’s Ouyang Qing, have been invited by Thunderous Battle for the feast.”

The sect members from the three sects had long since noticed that group of Wudang Sect members who had great temperaments. They seemed to be even better than the group of Wudang Sect members in Righteous Sect. When they heard their words, they did not dare to be negligent.

“Clan Master Thunder is on the first floor, please enter!”

The members of the three local sects wrapped their fists in their palms at the same time to return the greeting and gave off a grand air.

The people behind Ouyang Qing were all affected. Before they entered the door, they wrapped their fists in their palms, and the air of martial artists was incredibly strong about them.

Soon, a group of tall and built Shaolin Temple disciples with bright eyes walked out from the crowd. There were thirteen of them, and all of them were dressed in the monk robes of Shaolin Temple warrior monks. They held Silver-spiked Staffs that attracted everyone’s attention when they arrived in front of the entrance.

The eyes of the disciples from the three local sects brightened, and a few people went up to invite them in.

“Might you be the thirteen masters of Shaolin Temple, who have been invited by Clan Master Thunder to join the feast?”

“It is I, Strength Star. These are my junior brothers,” Strength Star, who led the group, announced his Buddhist name, and a hint of a smile appeared on his face.

“Clan Master Thunder has been waiting for a long time, please enter!”

The voices of the members of the three sects were very loud.

The thirteen staff-using monks saluted them back with one hand.

“Thank you!”

The monks walked calmly into Shennong Restaurant while the onlookers discussed it heatedly.

At that moment, there were plenty of people of the three sects who could not remain calm.

Even though the thirteen staff-using monks’ fame had dwindled a lot by then, they were still people who were famous in Shaolin Temple. They were so strong that they were not inferior to top-class players. Their Demon Subduing Staff was said to allow them to not be at a disadvantage even if they had to face enemies who were multiple times their number.

There were also dozens of Wudang Sect members who arrived before the monks. They, too, seemed to be at Mystical Realm. Their equipment and temperaments were extraordinary, and the members of the three local sects believed that their abilities were not that much weaker either.

“And here we were, saying that there are few members in Mu Clan. Look. Elites from a few great system allocated sects arrived in one go. First were the disciples from Emei Sect who came here to congratulate Mu Clan and celebrate with them, then Chivalry Sect came over. They also managed to draw in elites from Wudang Sect and Shaolin Temple. By the looks of it, we can expect Mu Clan to become great very soon.”

“Yeah...”

*****

There were dozens of round tables at the first floor of the restaurant. Most of them had already been filled. Aside from Happy and Absolute Nonsense sitting at the same table, there were also Thunderous Battle, Little North, One Circle, and the others from Beautiful Robes Faction, who had returned from the crystal mine.

Ouyang Qing and the thirteen staff-using monks sat down once the female members of the three local sects ushered them to their seats. They greeted each other, and the atmosphere became very lively.

“Happy, Thunderous Battle, you’re really the worst. How could you not have told us beforehand about something so major and asked us to join? At any rate, we’re all registered as Mu Clan’s members already, you know?”

“Brother Ouyang is right.”

Strength Star joined the conversation and agreed after sweeping his gaze over Happy and Thunderous Battle.

They were originally slightly uneasy, but when they saw the duo sitting together and heard the rumors in the town, they calmed down.

“Heh, you’ll have to blame Thunderous Battle for that. He didn’t handle things well, so I was arranged to be the sole actor on the stage to clean up his mess.”

While Happy spoke, he was tugged by the eldest senior sister from Emei Sect, who sat beside him. “Happy, Mu Clan is actually based off Murong Clan, right?” the beautiful mistress, Yue Hua, asked with a face full of curiosity. “But you made Thunderous Battle the clan master while you refuse to join the sect. What’s the meaning behind it?”

“I’m not leadership material, so it’s only obvious that I’ll just be a lackey and play second fiddle,” Happy answered with a smile. He was surprised by Yue Hua actually coming to congratulate them.

“You definitely have some kind of scheme.” Yue Hua looked at Happy askance. “If you don’t, why don’t you join Moon Reflection Temple? You can be Moon Reflection Temple’s Dharma Protector! I heard that you still don’t have a girlfriend, and we have plenty of single ladies at our side. This sort of treatment is something many great players in the game can only dream of!” Her tone when she said the last sentence had changed.

Happy smiled wanly and looked at the leaders around him at the table. There were around a dozen of them. “Hey, Great Beauty Yue, if you tempt me with beauty so loudly before these sect leaders, aren’t you just going to show that I’m not loyal? Even if I do like any of you, I won’t dare to join your sect for my own reputation, you know?”

The group of men immediately roared with laughter.

Yue Hua glared at Happy, then ignored him.

During the feast, Ouyang Qing and Strength Star stated one after another that there were quite a number of disciples from Wudang Sect and Shaolin Temple who showed interest in joining Mu Clan, but they did not know the recruitment requirements for Mu Clan, so they asked the two of them to come over to take a look and ask them about it face to face.

“We won’t need too many people.” Thunderous Battle did not say anything, but Happy was the one who offered the explanation. “The strength of a sect doesn’t rely on the number of members. I believe you know about this as well. The current strongest player sect, Class One Hall, has very strict control over its members’ strength. Even though they have fewer than five thousand members, each of them has very good individual strength. One branch has a number of elites that is twice what a normal large sect would possess, and their combat strength is very astonishing!”

The masters of the three local sects nodded. It was something that they had experienced personally. Right then, they could tell from Happy’s tone that he seemed to have some ambition as well. Immediately, they looked forward to hearing the requirements of Mu Clan’s member recruitment.
