Like you, the faces of Xiao San and the hundred trusted aides also displayed a spine-chilling smile.
In the first month, more than a thousand people were eliminated from the five thousand participants. These people either couldn’t withstand the harsh environnt or were defeated by their own psyche.
Of course, the so-called deaths were rely illusions created by you, and those who were eliminated were taken away by soone you had arranged in advance. This person was none other than Lü Dai.
Initially, you weren’t aware of this Penglai Island. Only so nearby fishern knew about the island. It turned out that Lü Dai’s Lake Heart Island was eventually discovered, albeit only by so fishern. However, for safety reasons, Lü Dai imdiately reported to you and requested to transfer all the resources from Lake Heart Island to Penglai Island.
Compared to Lake Heart Island, Penglai Island is significantly larger, capable of sustaining fifty thousand people living normally, not to ntion the high mountains at the island’s center.
After receiving Lü Dai’s letter, you imdiately responded, ordering Lü Dai to lead everyone to Penglai Island. You also instructed Lü Dai to bring He Jin and Liu Bian, as these two absolutely cannot appear in public. anwhile, the Zhen Sisters would be escorted to Xiapi City by a team.
Despite your yearning to reunite with your won, the current situation is chaotic, and you must prepare for any eventuality. Xuzhou is your foundation and must not be compromised in any way. No one and no force can set foot in your Xuzhou, not even half a step!
At this ti, Lü Dai and his n were stationed north of Penglai Island, having arrived more than half a month before you. They imdiately began constructing simple defenses at the island’s northern side and setting up camp. With the arrival of over a thousand slaves, the construction speed of Lü Dai’s group significantly accelerated. Although Lü Dai wanted to learn your training thods, you had previously ordered that no one could enter the training zone on any pretext, or they would be executed.
Through the eliminated slaves, Lü Dai gained so information. Moreover, Lü Dai began to realize this, sothing you anticipated beforehand. Considering this, Lü Dai’s admiration for you deepened further.
In the third month of training, over a thousand more were eliminated.
Although the number seems high, it actually exceeded your expectations. Initially, you anticipated that at least half of the participants would be eliminated in the first round, but only about a fifth were. By the third round, you expected only a thousand to remain, but there were still over two thousand eight hundred within your view.
When the final round of training ended, standing before you were over two thousand five hundred who cheered and even cried tears of joy. This far exceeded your expectations, as you had only planned for at most five hundred to form the Five Elents Battle Array you had researched. Thus, the number of the Five Elents Battle Array expanded from the planned one hundred to five hundred mbers.
Because the number was too large, you couldn’t call them a personal guard team, so you gave them an independent codena—"Five Elents Beasts," with the first leader of these Five Elents Beasts being none other than Zhao Yun!
To you, Zhao Yun is a very special figure, whom you regard as a younger brother. To foster Zhao Yun’s rapid developnt, you brought him to Penglai Island once he recovered from his injuries. From the very beginning, Zhao Yun was part of the five thousand, enduring the sa training and hardships that ordinary people could not endure.
With his martial arts and the unique Qi Force of his sect, Zhao Yun was undoubtedly the strongest in the entire group, making him the rightful leader of the Five Elents Beasts.
The Five Elents Beasts are essentially your trump card, the foundation for establishing yourself in Xuzhou. Over the course of four months, you have devoted all your energy, even teaching the luck techniques of the Five Elents Opera and various unique breathing thods through different training sessions to these slaves. At the end, you tested them individually and categorized them according to the Five Elents.
The Five Elents Beasts have their na because they are divided into five teams of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, with each team receiving specialized training based on the varying Five Elents Qi within their bodies.
This approach sets you apart, as ordinary people would never impart their fundantal cultivation techniques to outsiders, much less to a group of slaves. However, you think differently. Through your interactions with these slaves, you discovered their thought patterns were simple. In modern terms, their life’s goal was to satisfy basic needs.
While addressing their basic needs, you also wanted them to realize their own value.
This team only accepts your command; they are loyal solely to you.
There is one more person worth ntioning: soone with a peculiar na, Zheng Zhi. Firstly, she is a woman with poor proficiency in Chinese. Secondly, she is not one of the Han People but of South Vietnam, today’s Vietnase. Like Zhao Yun, she possesses remarkable martial arts skills, leading her and Zhao Yun to engage in competitions during later training stages, leaving the others far behind.
Zheng Zhi is not a woman of many words. Not only because of the language barrier, but also because she focuses solely on training, hardly speaking to others, including the other female slaves. Nonetheless, she is admired by everyone. In an era where strength is respected, her superior skills earned the respect of others,
For this reason, you added a deputy leader position, created specifically for Zheng Xi.
While personally leading the training, you also kept a close watch on the affairs of the Nine Provinces. Since Lü Bu declared himself emperor, the major forces of the Nine Provinces have made significant moves. The closest threats to you are Cao Cao of Qingzhou and Yuan Shao of Yan Province.
Cao Cao took advantage of Yuan Shao’s campaign against Han Fu in Jizhou to attack Yan Province. At this ti, Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang found you during the final training session for the Five Elents Beasts, and it was Lü Dai who led them to you.
"Why have you co?" you ask, looking at Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang, noticing that they have lost significant weight since you last saw them. Your initial displeasure softened considerably out of compassion for them.
"Husband, we..." Zhen Luo hesitated, sensing your anger. After all, you had previously stated that this was a secret training, and no one was allowed to intrude. Nevertheless, Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang managed to persuade Lü Dai, who reluctantly risked your wrath by bringing the two ladies here.
