I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

The question seemed abrupt and left Lin Hai and the others stunned.

What's the time to do?

Only Hua Zitong understood his meaning.

She looked at Li Wu and nodded emphatically.

"Yes, it's time."

Li Wu smiled.

He stood up and said to Lin Hai, Steel Shield, and the others, who looked puzzled, "Money is just a tool. What we need to do next is use these tools to forge our real weapons."

"A real...weapon?" The Beast Friend scratched his head, still not understanding.

Hua Zitong didn't explain. She simply stretched out her hand, and with a flash of light, a dark purple token appeared in her palm.

The token was simple and unadorned, with only two large characters engraved on it—Guild.

The moment Lin Hai saw the token, his eyes widened and he held his breath for half a second.

"This...this is...a guild creation order?!" he exclaimed.

As the former deputy head of Wanbaolou in District 9, he knew all too well the value of this token!

In the Realm of Origin, players need this item if they want to establish their own guild!

The drop rate for Guild Creation Tokens is outrageously low!

He remembered clearly that in District 9, it wasn't until most of the top players reached level 40 that someone obtained the first guild creation token from a wild boss!

But now?

How long has the server in Area 21 been open? Most players are still stuck in the 20s, and Li Wu and his friends have already gotten their hands on this?!

And judging from their appearance, they must have already obtained the guild creation order.

Lin Hai understood instantly!

They're waiting for an opportunity!

An opportunity to make your guild famous from the moment it's launched!

Today's auction at Qianjin Pavilion is their first step in building momentum for the guild!

First, hold an auction to establish the reputation of Qianjin Pavilion and Wuli Kanhua, attracting popularity and wealth.

Then, take out the guild creation order and establish the first player guild in District 21 in front of everyone!

This meticulously planned and interconnected scheme...

Looking at the young man in front of him, who was even younger than himself, Lin Hai had only two words in his mind.

terror!

Although Steel Shield, Arcane Light, and Beast Friend didn't understand as deeply as Lin Hai had, they also grasped the significance of this token.

Establish a guild!

They're going to become the first guild veterans in District 21!

This realization made them tremble with excitement.

"Boss...we..." Steel Shield was too excited to speak.

"Now, do you understand what I mean by weapon?" Li Wu looked at them and said calmly.

"Understood!" the three shouted in unison.

"Okay." Li Wu nodded and took the heavy token from Hua Zitong's hand.

"Then let's discuss the name of the guild before creating it."

What is the name of the guild?

Li Wu's words immediately calmed down the people who were in a state of extreme excitement.

Oh right, how could I forget something so important!

The name of a guild is its face and soul.

A good name should not only be loud and powerful, but also meaningful and able to unite people's hearts.

"How about calling it Thousand Gold Pavilion?" Lin Hai was the first to suggest. His mind was completely focused on his business empire. "We've built our reputation on Thousand Gold Pavilion; this name has the highest brand recognition!"

"No, no!" Friend of the Beasts immediately shook his head in opposition. "Thousand Gold Pavilion sounds like a casual guild, too weak, lacking any presence. We're going to do big things, our name has to be imposing! In my opinion, how about 'Godslayer Temple'? It sounds powerful!"

"That's so cringeworthy..." Arcane Light muttered to himself.

"And he has a bit of a villainous feel to him."

"How about calling it the Guardians Alliance?" Steel Shield touched his large shield and said seriously, "Our goal is to protect, so this name is very fitting."

"Sounds like a security company..." Hua Zitong couldn't help but chime in, speechless at the naming taste of these straight men.

Several people chattered amongst themselves, mentioning all sorts of impressive-sounding names, from Dragon Soaring to the Supreme Dynasty, but none of them satisfied everyone.

Li Wu sat quietly to the side, listening without saying a word.

Looking at his friends arguing heatedly over a name, he suddenly felt a little amused, but also a little warm.

This is probably what it feels like to be part of a team.

"Stop arguing, everyone." In the end, it was Hua Zitong who interrupted their increasingly absurd discussion.

She looked at Li Wu, who had remained silent, and asked, "What do you think? You're the president, you should decide."

All eyes immediately focused on Li Wu.

Li Wu pondered for a moment.

He thought of himself, of Hua Zitong, and of their journey from the beginner village.

From a ridiculed, useless profession to a renowned master of deception across the entire region.

From a boy struggling to pay for medical expenses to the master of Qianjin Pavilion who now controls thousands of gold coins.

To others, everything he did was nothing short of an unrepeatable myth.

And in the future, he will create even greater legends.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and slowly uttered two words.

"myth."

"myth?"

Everyone paused for a moment, pondering the name.

"Yes, let's call it Myth." Li Wu's voice was calm, but firm.

"Everything we've done is a myth to others. What we need to do in the future is to create even more myths."

"Using this name serves as a constant reminder that our goal is the stars and the sea."

His words silenced everyone present.

Lin Hai no longer thought about his business empire, Beast Friend no longer clung to his domineering nature, and Steel Shield laid down his protection.

They looked at Li Wu, their eyes shifting from confusion to understanding, and finally to fervent admiration.

myth!

The name struck a chord with each of them instantly.

Yes, by following this man, aren't they witnessing, or even participating in, the creation of a myth?

"Great! Let's call it Myth!" Lin Hai was the first to slap his thigh. "This name is a hundred times better than my Thousand Gold Pavilion! It has class!"

"Mythology..." the Beast Friend muttered twice, nodding vigorously, "It definitely sounds much more prestigious than the Temple of Slaughter!"

"I agree!" Steel Shield and Arcane Light said in unison.

Hua Zitong looked at Li Wu and smiled slightly.

Myth?

It really suits him.

"Alright, since everyone agrees, let's name the guild Myth." Li Wu nodded, then turned his gaze to the [Guild Creation Token] in his hand.

He took a deep breath, and without further hesitation, chose to use it.

[System notification: You are using a special item, [Guild Creation Token]. Confirm?]

"confirm!"

[System prompt: Please enter your guild name.]

Li Wu carefully typed the word "myth" into the pop-up input box.

[System notification: The guild name "Myth" is available. Confirm creation?]

"confirm!"

Li Wu's heart also jumped.

He was already imagining the server-wide announcement that would resound throughout District 21.

However, the next second, instead of a system announcement, he received a cold notification sound.

[System notification: Guild creation failed!]
