Chapter 233

Ibro then moved at a rapid pace towards his manor. When he reached there, he found the 9 cultivators waiting in front of the manor.

"I congratulate you on your breakthrough, have you all succeeded?"

"Hahaha, we don't even think that by joining the village we got this boost in our cultivation. We didn't breakthrough yet, but we managed to pass a lot of obstacles, though. Now, we should call you my king, right?"

Ibro laughed with the dean while moving inside his manor.

"You should be, anyway I'm happy for your gains. I hope you all breakthrough soon. Tell me now more info about all of you? I didn't get the chance to know all of my new men."

The dean started introducing all of them one by one by saying:

"Here we have 6 sect masters and 3 academies deans including myself. This one is called Toren. He is the Divine Sky sect master. The one next to him is called Frox. He is the God Wrath sect master. 

That one in the back is called Kokil. He is the Heaven Will sect master. The one in front of him is called Doras. He is the sacred Mountain sect master. 

This one is called Minrab. He is the Tower Lord sect master. This is Gorsag the father and the son. The father is the Holy Hand sect master, and the son is the Holy Hand academy Dean. 

The last one is Theris. He is the Dean of the Snake academy.and, of course, you know me, Erand, the dean of your academy."

Ibro checked all of them while Erand introduced them. Ibro felt the pride in his dean words, and he should be.

"I want to ask, how many cultivators do you have in your sects and academies?"

They looked to each other before Gorsag junior spoke his mind:

"This is very hard to estimate, my king. We have a lot of disciples, especially at our outer sect department. If you need a rough estimation then I can give you that. I have roughly 200k cultivators under my rule."

Ibro ears were sensitive to anything related to his problems. The use of the word 'department' from this man gave him a silver lining hope. At once he asked:

"Do you have some administration interests perhaps?"

Gorsag looked at Ibro strangely while replying:

"Sure, my king. How did you know? Did Erand tell you about my interests? Anyway, they are well-known facts in the world. 

Everyone knew about my love for organization and that is the reason they made my academy soar to the top in a short period."

Ibro looked at him like he was looking at a treasure. That man was exactly what he wanted, so he asked again:

"Do you know if there are other cultivators like you?"

Gorsag junior didn't know if Ibro was making a jester out of him or was he speaking seriously. He had experienced a lot of trouble in his life because of his strange habit. Nonetheless, he replied:

"There are few cultivators who share the same habit as me. Some of them are sect masters while others are sons and daughters of noble families."

Ibro held himself from laughing in happiness. He found the solution to his current problem, so he said at once:

"I will assign you to a very high position in my empire. I need people like you around me. When you go back, I want you to contact those friends of yours. Tell them that I'm waiting for them to join my village. They will find a place to execute their hobby here. I will support them all."

Gorsag said with obvious happiness:

"I will do this when I get back, my king."

Ibro then checked all the others roughly numbered cultivators in their sects and academies. He was astonished to know that the rough estimate for all of his future villagers had exceeded 5 million. 

That was way above what he estimated before. All this number was a blessing and a curse. Few administrative people wouldn't help to solve this crisis. He needed a new source of these hard to find talents… he needed them before the next week.

"I will give you now a ring full of stones like the ones you used. After you go back, I need you all to prepare for joining here in a one-week maximum. I want you to send 10k cultivators once you reach the academy. I need them badly to raise the level of the village."

"Can the village be raised?" Erond spoke his mind at once. He was surprised by this. He wasn't the only one, as Ibro noticed the looks of surprise over his new men.

"This village is different from your known sects and academies. It can be raised in level. Next time you come here, you will be surprised by the changes here. Now, here is the ring. 

About the market layouts, I will send to you via the market interface in the upcoming three days."

Erond took the ring from Ibro then led the men towards the teleportation cloud. Ibro didn't start his cultivation at once, as he went to see Rinobak first. 

He ordered him to prepare as many market designs as he could. Ibro knew that endless sects and academies would ask to join his village. 

He also requested from Rinobak to choose a couple of capable aides to be with Ibro at his manor. Ibro felt annoyed each time he tried to do anything and searched for Rinobak like this. 

After that, he returned to his manor and started his training finally. When he started his training, he ate a core grade 5 as usual. This time, he felt the effects of his village upon him. 

His cultivation speed soared like nothing he experienced before. He stayed in this wonderful state for two days when he broke through foundation establishment stage 3. 

Although he wanted to continue, he heard loud voices so he stopped.
