Become a king right from the start, beginning with receiving rewards from all the heavens.

Xia Zhaoyan was sizing up the fifteen people, while the fifteen people themselves were incredibly shocked.

Logically speaking, these people are all seasoned veterans in their own worlds.

My heart has long been hardened like iron, and I am no longer easily disturbed.

But who could have imagined that they would actually be resurrected in a strange world? At this moment, the system has already implanted the current situation of the Great Xia Dynasty into their minds.

Moreover, each of them has memories of their past lives and retains their original personalities.

The only thing planted was a heart that was utterly loyal to Xia Zhaoyan.

Xia Zhaoyan, however, was communicating with the system, asking, "System, can we guarantee the loyalty of these people?"

To be honest, Xia Zhaoyan was still somewhat uneasy about these people with their bad reputations.

[Host, rest assured, these people are all deceased in their respective universes.]

[This system resurrected them in this world, and of course, planted the idea of ​​loyalty to the host in their souls.]

[Anyone who dares to betray you, without them even taking any concrete action, will be instantly annihilated if they even entertain the slightest thought of betrayal!]

After hearing the system's explanation, Xia Zhaoyan was completely relieved.

After all, this world is too complicated. There are some immortal beings who are impossible to destroy, and there is also the Heavenly Dao that reaps the benefits of all living beings.

And you absolutely must not reveal that you have a system.

"Everyone, please introduce your cultivation level."

"I believe you are all aware of my current situation."

"Now is the time for me to use people. How far you can go with me in the future depends on your own fate."

Tie Zhan and the others were filled with excitement; this was a true world of high-level martial arts.

The world is not only rich in spiritual energy, but also contains substances that can grant longevity. Even a mere Blood Exchange Realm cultivator can live to be two hundred years old.

As long as there are intelligent beings, who wouldn't want to live a long and prosperous life?

Boom! The ground seemed to tremble slightly. Tie Zhan stepped forward, his expression fanatical.

"Your Highness, I, Tie Zhan, am currently at the early stage of the Purple Mansion Realm."

As soon as he finished speaking, a thin man with a face as white as snow stepped forward, his voice cold yet tinged with fervor.

"Your Highness, I, Du Sha, am now at the peak of the Innate Realm."

Then, one by one, these people introduced their current cultivation level.

The strongest is Tie Zhan, who is at the early stage of the Purple Mansion Realm, while the weakest is Yun Zhonghe, who is currently at the mid-stage of the Acquired Realm.

Of the Four Evils, only Duan Yanqing was at the mid-stage of the Innate Realm.

After these people finished their introductions, Xia Zhaoyan could feel that he could check on their situation anytime, anywhere.

For example, the situation of Tie Zhan himself.

Name: Tie Zhan.

Lifespan: 1000 years.

Realm: Early stage of Purple Mansion Realm.

Combat strength: Perfected Purple Mansion Realm (mutual destruction).

Cultivation Technique: Battle Heaven Technique.

Xia Zhaoyan was shocked by Tie Zhan's combat power after just one glance; he was actually able to perish together with a Perfected Purple Mansion Realm cultivator.

It must be said that those resurrected by the system do indeed possess extraordinary abilities.

It should be noted that the average city-guarding general of the Great Xia Dynasty only possessed the strength of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Each of these fifteen people is capable of fighting against opponents of higher levels.

Even the weakest of Yun Zhonghe can fight against someone in the late stage of the Acquired Realm.

There are already more than a hundred people in the backyard of the Prince's Mansion.

Xia Zhaoyan simply materialized all the armor and weapons that the system had rewarded him with.

Splash...

One hundred pieces of black armor, along with one hundred swords and bows, were laid out on the ground.

He then looked at the hundred guards and said, "Each of you will be given a set of these equipment."

Led by the centurion, the men stepped forward and each took a set of equipment.

These equipment, while not top-of-the-line.

But it's not ordinary equipment either; it's the Hundred Battle Armor, crafted from exotic animal hides and other materials, entirely black, enveloping the entire person inside.

Moreover, it does not affect a person's fighting or movement, and can withstand attacks from a person at the peak of the Acquired Realm.

The Python Tendon Bow has a bowstring forged from the tendons of a hundred-year-old python. Even cultivators at the Innate Realm would not dare to withstand its attack with their bare hands.

Even the inner energy of a cultivator at the Perfect Acquired Realm cannot block the sharpness of a fine steel sword.

It can be said that these pieces of equipment would be considered rare even in the army of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Even ordinary soldiers in the regiments are not qualified to be equipped with such equipment.

Finally, Xia Zhaoyan thought for a moment and then took out forty-five high-grade spirit crystals.

Spirit crystals are not uncommon on the continent, as spirit crystal veins are frequently discovered in various places thanks to the nourishment of spiritual energy.

This is a regular crystal containing incredibly pure energy, which can be directly absorbed without conversion.

However, high-grade spirit crystals are quite rare.

Most spirit crystal mines that are discovered are low-grade mines, and even mid-grade mines are rare, let alone high-grade and the legendary top-grade spirit crystal mines.

However, even low-grade ore cannot be absorbed by people below the Innate Realm.

Only cultivators at the Innate Realm can absorb the energy from spirit crystals, because the energy within their bodies has undergone a qualitative transformation.

Only those whose spiritual energy is on the same level as that of heaven and earth can safely absorb this energy.

Cultivators need a step to refine the spiritual energy they absorb from the world, because spiritual energy contains other things.

The energy within spirit crystals is the purest and can be directly absorbed without refining.

This is why spirit crystals are the most important strategic resource for all major powers, and also the currency of the cultivator class.

"Those at the Innate Realm present will each be allocated three spirit crystals."

"These are high-grade spirit crystals, enough for you to absorb for a while," Xia Zhaoyan said, and then distributed the spirit crystals.

Yun Zhonghe and the other two were very envious, but there was nothing they could do, since they weren't at the Innate Realm.

Everyone happily accepted the spirit crystals. No one would be foolish enough to use high-grade spirit crystals for cultivation; these were things that could save lives in critical moments.

Normally, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is enough for cultivation. However, if one is seriously injured, high-grade spirit crystals can be used to save one's life.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Highness. I, Tie Zhan, swear to serve you to the death!"

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly bowed and thanked Xia Zhaoyan.

He subconsciously cursed Tie Zhan in his heart. This big, burly brute was so good at flattering people.

My friend, it seems I didn't know you well enough in my past life.

Xia Zhaoyan waved his hand, signaling everyone to rise.

Although high-grade spirit crystals are rare and precious, they are not that precious to him.

The system will definitely reward a lot of these resources in the future.

One top-grade spirit crystal can be exchanged for one hundred high-grade spirit crystals, and one high-grade spirit crystal can be exchanged for one hundred mid-grade spirit crystals.

One mid-grade spirit crystal can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit crystals.

A single low-grade spirit crystal is enough for a beginner in the early stages of the Innate Realm to absorb for five days.

If we had to measure it in ordinary currency, one low-grade spirit crystal could be exchanged for one thousand taels of silver, the common currency of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, one thousand taels of silver cannot be exchanged for a single low-grade spirit crystal, because no one is willing to do so.

Most currency transactions in this world are still conducted using silver and gold.

After all, spirit crystals are consumables and strategic resources, and can only be used to trade for very precious resources.

At this moment, Xia Zhaoyan was considering how to arrange the people in front of him.
