On the way home, Bai Ningbing was a little unhappy and didn't say a word.

Ye Chen couldn't help but put his arm around her shoulder. "What's wrong? What are you worried about?"

"Overseas controls are strict, so I might not be able to get into Dragon Soul's outpost."

Bai Ningbing's face was filled with reluctance.

Ye Chen smiled upon hearing this, "Who said I was going to the Dragon Soul's outpost?"

"Oh? Aren't you going?"

The three women were all startled.

Ye Chen leaned back in the car seat, his left arm around Bai Ningbing and his right arm around Lin Yao. "Answer me one question: what is the standard configuration of the outpost garrison?"

Bai Jinhan, who was driving, did not hesitate at all:

"The Dragon Kingdom has official standards: overseas outposts must be garrisoned by a Grandmaster-level expert for an extended period, and the regular combat force must consist of no fewer than 100 martial artists and personnel, along with well-equipped logistical support and management personnel."

"That's right. So, what level am I at now?"

"The peak of the tenth level of Grandmaster."

Suddenly, the three women were startled.

Lin Yao's mouth dropped open in surprise. "You mean...?"

Ye Chen's lips slowly curled upwards.

"Since we have this opportunity, why not go big?"

"We will graduate from Dragon Soul one day, and our families cannot protect us forever."

"So from now on, we're going to build our own power!"

The three women stared wide-eyed, remaining silent for a long time.

……

back home.

The three women began preparing dinner.

Ye Chen went to the third floor of the Immortal Pavilion alone and began browsing the products in the mall.

He had just opened the online store when his phone beeped with a notification sound.

"Your account has received a positive deposit of 2750 billion yuan, with a balance of 4512 billion yuan..."

The final payment for Hongyuguo has arrived.

Ye Chen's eyes lit up.

This money came at just the right time!

"System, open the store panel."

[Ding! Panel has been opened.]

[Today's Special Price: Rainbow Fish: Highly nutritious and exceptionally beautiful, its body radiates a seven-colored glow... A top-tier world-class spirit fish. Today's price: 11/fish (Original price 110/fish)]

……

I bought a rainbow fish on a whim and put it in my storage space.

Ye Chen first clicked on the [Cultivation Techniques] category.

In this world, there are things like martial arts techniques and cultivation methods, and every recorded talent has its corresponding training program.

However, he had never paid attention to it before, and neither had Bai Ningbing and the other students from Dragon Soul University.

The best age to develop one's talents is between fifteen and twenty years old. Most people will start learning martial arts and cultivation methods after the age of twenty.

However, since he is now going to build his own power, he should acquire a few common cultivation techniques, which are essential for both combat strength and a sense of collective honor.

Ye Chen turned the pages one by one.

Two hours later.

Six books were ultimately selected.

The first book, which allows everyone to cultivate, is more suitable for freshmen like them who are still young.

[Breathing Exercise: A basic introductory exercise, the most widely circulated in the world. It involves absorbing the vital energy of heaven and earth to refine oneself, focusing on building a solid foundation.]

The second book was bought for someone who mainly focuses on defense and physical constitution.

[Mysterious Iron Tempering Technique: This technique uses energy to cleanse the muscles, bones, and flesh, strengthening defensive capabilities. After cultivation, the body becomes as hard as iron, emphasizing close-quarters combat.]

This is the third book I bought for people who mainly study spirituality and energy.

[Wanbaichuan Absorption of Spirit Technique: Increases energy absorption speed, refines the mixed energy of heaven and earth into a purer form, and amplifies the power of other skills.]

The fourth book focuses on close-quarters combat.

【Rending Wind Force: A powerful offensive technique that condenses energy into a powerful burst of force, resulting in a fierce and decisive attack. Suitable for palm and fist techniques, and highly skilled practitioners can wield weapons.】

The fifth book focuses on long-range attacks.

【Myriad Spirits Profound Qi Technique: Concentrates energy into a single point, releasing it over long distances to unleash various magical light projectiles. With an extremely long attack range, it is suitable for all energy-based cultivators.】

The sixth book: A flying technique that everyone will love! It also provides mobility for everyone.

[Flying Rainbow Technique: Gathers spiritual energy to propel oneself into the air. Energy consumption increases with speed. Universal for all cultivators; only for movement, with no offensive or defensive effects.]

……

The total cost of the six cultivation techniques was 1263 million.

Cheap!

Ye Chen put them all into his storage space, a smile playing on his lips.

"I'll build a library later, where only those who contribute to the guild can study, and no one is allowed to take anything out, hehe."

Regain your composure and move on to the next one.

[Divine Weapon]

Ye Chen pondered for a moment.

He remembered something: it seemed that among the people he knew, only Hong Wu used weapons. Jiang Cha, Bai Ningang, and Bai Jinhan all had weapons given to them by themselves, while the others did not carry weapons.

He really didn't know what was going on.

Does it mean you don't like it?

Should I wait until graduation to look for a job?

Still don't want to settle?

……

After thinking for a while, Ye Chen shook his head.

Never mind that.

Being abroad is different from being at school; weapons can significantly increase combat effectiveness and are essential supplies.

Open [Divine Weapon] to start browsing.

This page has a plethora of options.

They are mainly divided into three categories.

Standard weapons, personalized weapons, and divine weapons.

Divine weapons are obviously out of the question, as every single one of them is incredibly powerful, but their prices are equally outrageous, none of them costing less than a billion!

As for personalization...

Of the more than three thousand people in the Star Glory Society, he knew less than twenty people who understood the specifics of talent, so he had to give up.

Ultimately, he turned his attention to "Standard Weapons".

And chose a unique weapon from "High-Level World" - the Star Stone weapon.

This is related to personal preference; after all, his guild is called Star Glory Guild, isn't that a coincidence?

After half an hour.

He spent 24 billion to buy a thousand Star Stone weapons (longswords, long knives, spears, hammers, claws, axes, tiger claws, wall armor, and ribbons).

There are also a thousand Star Stone accessories (pendants, feather fans, staffs, star charts, umbrellas, and exquisite pagodas).

Of course, these things aren't given away for free; only those who make contributions can exchange them using guild contributions.

Otherwise, if he just gives away those 120 million yuan worth of stuff so easily, he'll lose a lot of money!

After putting them all into the storage space, just as I was about to move on to the next one, I heard someone calling me to eat downstairs.

Ye Chen packed his things and went downstairs.

He pondered as he enjoyed the eight dishes and soup prepared by the three women.

The three women ate quietly without disturbing the little gluttonous beasts begging for food at their feet from time to time.

A dozen minutes later.

Ye Chen put down his chopsticks and returned to the third floor.

Bai Jinhan withdrew his gaze from Ye Chen's back and looked at Bai Ningbing and Lin Yao with some concern.

"Do you think it would be dangerous if we really went abroad?"

Lin Yao looked relaxed.

"First-tier beasts have five levels of body tempering, second-tier beasts have ten levels of body tempering, third-tier beasts have three levels of qi and blood, fourth-tier beasts have seven levels of qi and blood, fifth-tier beasts have ten levels of qi and blood at their peak, sixth-tier martial artists have three levels of martial artists, seventh-tier martial artists have seven levels of martial artists, eighth-tier martial artists have ten levels of their peak, ninth-tier martial masters have three levels of martial arts masters, tenth-tier martial arts masters have seven levels of martial arts masters, eleventh-tier martial arts masters have ten levels of their peak, and twelfth-tier grandmasters and above will not exceed the fifth level of grandmasters."

"These are real statistics compiled by the state over the past century. Ye Chen is at the peak of the tenth level of Grandmaster, just one step away from becoming a Martial King. Even if he encounters the most powerful alien beast, Ye Chen can destroy it with a wave of his hand. What is there to worry about?"

"That's not how you say it."

Bai Ningbing continued, "Of course we're not afraid of one-on-one combat, but the situation abroad is different from that in China. There's a chance we'll encounter hordes of beasts. In the past thirty years, my Bai family has encountered hordes of beasts at our outposts no less than ten times. The most dangerous time was when we encountered a horde led by three 12th-tier exotic beasts. We suffered heavy losses in that battle."

Lin Yao nodded, her expression becoming serious.

"You make a good point."

"How about this?"

Bai Jinhan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"We'll call our families and ask for some supplies, and it would be best if they sent some more people! Anyway, Ye Chen is planning to go it alone, so they can come and go as they please."

"Can!"

"Okay, let's fight now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Ningbing and Lin Yao immediately picked up their phones.
