"Project Morningstar," they murmured, staring blankly at the docunts in their hands.
"Yes," Felix nodded. "I've nad it the Morningstar Project, feel free to call it whatever you like."
As Zephyr and the others began flipping through the pages, their expressions shifted dramatically, from doubt to surprise, bewildernt, and finally shock.
They looked at Felix as if he were a mad genius. Even Jarvis raised an eyebrow in astonishnt as he skimd through the contents.
"What do you think? This plan is feasible, right?" Felix grinned eagerly.
They all took a deep breath and nodded numbly.
"Big bro, this... this is truly…" Zephyr stamred, struggling to find words amidst his shock. Trinity, Gwendolyn Brixton, and Nixie were equally speechless; they could only stare wide-eyed.
"I must say, this plan of yours is nothing short of marvelous," Jarvis remarked. "All along, this kind of strategy has been right under the noses of powerful figures and noble families, but their pride blinds them!"
"Exactly! When I saw Big Bro's plan unfold, I couldn't help but wonder: why haven't those elite clans thought of this thod to boost their strength?" Trinity shook his head in disbelief.
"It's not that they haven't considered it; their arrogance prevents them from acting on such ideas,and besides they always wanted to monopolize everything for themselves," Gwendolyn added thoughtfully.
"Honestly, why didn't we co up with this sooner? Look how far we've co! Who says others can't achieve greatness if given the sa opportunity?" Zephyr exclaid with excitent.
"If your plan cos to fruition, Big Bro," Brixton chid in enthusiastically, "I can only imagine how powerful our Morningstar Family will beco!"
"Absolutely brilliant! So this is why you warned us not to leak anything outside," Nixie said with wide eyes filled with both excitent and awe.
Felix smirked. "The Morningstar Project consists of nine stages in total, this is just the first one! As for the rest… well, I haven't quite figured that out yet."
"Hiss!" They all inhaled sharply again as astonishnt washed over them once more.
"Big bro, I really have to hand it to you, you're incredible!" Zephyr gave Felix a thumbs-up.
"But don't you think the resources required will be overwhelming?" Nixie asked cautiously.

Felix shook his head dismissively. "Oh Nixie! Rember what we gathered from the Drake lair? Besides, these resources are ant to strengthen our family. We also have businesses generating substantial inco every month, so no worries there!"
"Yeah, Nixie, big bro is right," Zephyr chid in. "If we don't harness the resources at our disposal to build strength, then what's the point of all this wealth?"
Jarvis turned to Nixie with a calm deanor. "Listen, the most crucial thing in this world is strength. Without it, how can you protect what you have? Rember, in this world, the strong devour the weak."
Nixie pouted at their serious expressions. "Huh? I was just saying!"
Felix chuckled softly as he settled back down. "Look, as we've seen in the docunts, we can't safeguard our entire family on our own. There will always be soone stronger out there. We need to cultivate our own force and power."
He paused for emphasis before continuing. "We're not from a powerful lineage; we're orphans who stumbled upon an opportunity. Unlike those ancient families that have stood the test of ti, so for thousands of years and as for us,we're just starting out."
He glanced around at his friends before adding solemnly, "Even the weakest noble family in the Royal Capital has roots that go back centuries."
Felix took a deep breath and pressed on. "Our Morningstar Family? We're essentially a ragtag group of orphans trying to make sothing out of nothing. Do you really think we can hold a candle to those mighty noble families?"
Zephyr and the others shook their heads with bitter smiles.
"Nope," Felix continued firmly. "In the eyes of those powerful families and individuals in this kingdom, we're just insignificant ants, easily squashed beneath their boots. Our current strength? It's practically a joke to them! They've spent millennia building their legacies; how many years do you think it would take us to reach even a fraction of that foundation?"
His expression grew serious as he concluded, "We have a long road ahead if we want to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them."
"But," Felix grinned, "there's a shortcut that could catapult us to power. We might not even need a century to stand shoulder to shoulder with those esteed Noble and Royal Families with their long lineages. That's exactly what I've outlined in the docunts."
"Recruit from outside?" Zephyr pondered, a smile creeping onto his face.
"Exactly! We'll recruit others to join our Morningstar Family," Felix replied, his excitent palpable.
Right now, the Morningstar Family is painfully weak.
With barely a hundred mbers, including Felix, Trinity, Jarvis, their children, and the servants, their numbers are dwarfed by those of powerful Noble Families.
So have thousands of mbers who share the sa bloodline and co from the sa ancestors. This vast pool allows them to cultivate nurous talented Mana Cultivators effortlessly.
Felix's plan? Since they lack such a foundation, he intends for the Morningstar Family to integrate outsiders into their ranks.
Upon arriving in the Royal Capital, he explored various taverns and asked around about whether any Noble Families accepted outsiders into their clans or offered resources for cultivation.
The answer was always the sa: no chance! It seed that this practice was unheard of in the Kingdom.
But then an idea struck him, what if he recruited outsiders into his Morningstar Family?
Just like those powerful cultivators in xianxia and xuanhuan novels he read back on Earth who set up sects and trained disciples into formidable warriors! In just a few years, these disciples could beco pillars of strength for the sect.
After so digging around the Royal Capital, it beca clear that while there were Magic Academies and Institutions recruiting students but these Magic Academies and Institutions only recruit students from those powerful families.
As for the commoners, beggars or orphans, they were not allowed to enter those Magic Academies or Institutions at all unless.
It was obvious: these Noble Families wanted to hoard all cultivation resources for themselves!
Another reason they shunned outsiders? Pride and arrogance; they looked down on anyone without noble lineage as inferior.
But Felix wasn't bound by such traditions. He had no prestigious bloodline himself, he saw no sha in welcoming outsiders into his family. After all, what did it matter if their bloodline got "tainted"?
Felix and his companions were either orphans or had endured hardships together; they shared no ancestral ties whatsoever! If we're talking bloodlines here.
Sure, Trinity has True Dragon Bloodline potential; Gwendolyn boasts Elf Elental heritage; Brixton has his own mysterious lineage, but ultimately it's about talent!
So Felix had a bold idea: why not recruit outsiders into the Morningstar family? With the vast resources at their disposal, they could easily afford to bring in fresh talent.
After all, didn't Trinity and the others were orphans who lived in the slums and struggle to eat get their lives by, who knows that all of them have such monstrous talents in them.
In fact, the talents that Trinity and the others posses could rival those from even the most powerful noble families!
If it weren't for Felix's scanning function, many of these hidden gems would remain undiscovered. Take Trinity, for example, she has a True Dragon Bloodline!
If Felix didn't bother to scan their talents then no one would have noticed that in a corner of the world in a small kingdom in the slums of city lives a person with the True Dragon Bloodline.
This revelation begs the question: are all those beggars and orphans really as useless as society deems them? What if there are diamonds in the rough just waiting to shine?
So, while these so-called "kind" noble families turn a blind eye to such raw potential, Felix is more than willing to step in and give them a chance.
And with the system's scanning function, he can identify those with cultivation talent among the street dwellers.
And for those who may not be cut out for cultivation? Felix has plans for them as well.
Felix didn't believe that among all the beggars and orphans roaming the streets of the Royal Capital, there isn't a single person with talent?
While he wasn't searching for extraordinary abilities like those of Trinity and her friends, he believed there had to be soone, anyone, who could cultivate their skills.
He wasn't particularly optimistic about finding mages in such circumstances; after all, Gwendolyn and Nixie situation was special.
But when it cos to Knight Cultivation? That's a different story!
He firmly believed that many individuals could tap into their potential here.
Knight Cultivation doesn't require an abundance of innate talent or high-level comprehension to get started.
With determination and guidance, he was confident that he could uncover a wealth of promising knights among those overlooked by society.
As he contemplated this strategy, a smirk crept across Felix's face as he glanced at Zephyr and the others.
