The Lin Family’s Winning Hand

Chapter 27: The Lin Family's Winning Hand [Fourth Update]

The few familiar faces Ye Tian saw were the warriors from the Wind Wolf Hunting Squad. The initial-level Speed Talent he obtained had even come from a Silver Moon Marten hunted by the Wind Wolf Hunting Squad!

Speaking of which, he owed the Wind Wolf Hunting Squad a favor.

And the Speed Talent had been a great help to him in the Early Stages. Without the Speed Talent, he might have long since died at the hands of Shadow Li Cun.

"During this mission, if I can help the Wind Wolf Hunting Squad, I'll help them!"

Ye Tian said to himself inwardly.

Ye Tian recognized Wind Wolf, but Wind Wolf did not recognize Ye Tian.

After all, Ye Tian had changed too much compared to before. First was his demeanor. After a period of cultivation and repeated killings, he carried a sharp, murderous aura about him, making his face appear somewhat mature.

Precisely because of this, although he was only sixteen, he looked like he was eighteen or nineteen, much more mature than before.

Furthermore, back then he was only about 1.7 meters tall, but now he had shot up to 1.8 meters, and his physique had become much stronger.

Wind Wolf had only met Ye Tian once, and at that time Ye Tian was merely a Martial Disciple. How would Wind Wolf and the others remember a mere Martial Disciple? They had long since forgotten about Ye Tian.

Ye Tian did not stare at Wind Wolf and the others, but stood alone in a corner, quietly waiting for the person in charge to arrive.

However, there were a few people who wanted to befriend Ye Tian. After all, Ye Tian was too young. To become a Martial Warrior at such a young age, his talent was undoubtedly high, and he had the potential to become an Elite Martial Warrior in the future.

If they knew Ye Tian was already an Elite Martial Warrior, they would undoubtedly be utterly shocked.

In fact, unless one reached the Great Martial Warrior level, it was difficult to discern another person's cultivation level. It could only be seen during battle or through their aura. And Ye Tian had been suppressing his aura all along, so how could these people, whose strongest were only Elite Martial Warriors, possibly see through Ye Tian's cultivation?

It wasn't that Ye Tian didn't want to reveal his Elite Martial Warrior cultivation, but now wasn't the right time. It wouldn't be too late to expose it after he had copied the Power Talent of the Divine Power Ant. By then, he wouldn't need to worry too much.

Regarding these warriors' attempts to befriend him, Ye Tian perfunctorily brushed them all off.

"Lin Mingzhi is here!"

The crowd began to stir.

Lin Mingzhi?

Upon hearing this name, information about Lin Mingzhi surfaced in Ye Tian's mind.

Lin Mingzhi was the son of the current head of the Lin Family. Only in his thirties, he was already at the Peak of the Elite Martial Warrior level, not far from becoming a Great Martial Warrior. Moreover, Lin Mingzhi possessed a Medium Cultivation Talent, qualifying him to advance to Great Martial Warrior, but at best he would only reach the initial stage of Great Martial Warrior in his lifetime.

However, even the initial stage of Great Martial Warrior was enough to dominate the Lin Hai Base. Because aside from that Peak Great Martial Warrior from the Lin Family, the other Great Martial Warriors were only at the initial stage.

Based on Ye Tian's speculation, that Peak Great Martial Warrior from the Lin Family should have a high-level Cultivation Talent. It was a pity he hadn't been able to break through to the Grandmaster. And that Great Martial Warrior was already very old, probably having no chance of a Breakthrough in this lifetime.

"Everyone, quiet down!"

A warrior with thick eyebrows and big eyes stood not far away, shouting to everyone. He was Lin Mingzhi.

"Since you all have come here, you must be willing to participate in the Beast Cleanup Plan. This plan holds unimaginable benefits for our Lin Hai Base. After all, Lin Hai Base is too small, with limited resources. Once a trade route is opened, allowing trade with a Medium-sized base, everyone might even be able to purchase treasures unavailable in Lin Hai Base from a Medium-sized base in the future. Therefore, this plan is very important!"

"Of course, this plan also carries certain dangers, but the rewards will absolutely match any hunting trip you've ever undertaken. I can guarantee here that everything you obtain on this journey belongs entirely to you. For any beasts you hunt but cannot carry away, our Lin Family will deliver half of them to you afterwards. Of course, these are what you rightfully deserve. Additionally, our Lin Family has prepared gifts. Each Martial Warrior can receive 20 portions of Intermediate beast blood and 2 million dollars. Elite Martial Warriors can receive 3 portions of Advanced beast blood and 10 million dollars."

Lin Mingzhi's words completely ignited the warriors present.

Not only do they keep their own spoils, but they also get extra rewards. Where else could they find such a good deal?

As for only getting half for beast corpses they couldn't carry, they had absolutely no objections. After all, some beast corpses were too large, and often they were just discarded, a pure waste. For the Lin Family to guarantee their retrieval and give them half was already extremely generous.

Watching the excited warriors around him, Ye Tian secretly shook his head.

These people were thinking too optimistically. The rewards were indeed very good, but they had to come back alive first. If they died, they wouldn't get a single cent. And no matter how you calculated it, the Lin Family wouldn't suffer any losses.

They were raising a group of free fighters and could also reap substantial resources. The Lin Family was playing a very clever hand.

"There are about 200 warriors gathered here. Adding the warriors from the various major families, probably no fewer than 1,000 warriors are being mobilized for this plan!" Ye Tian calculated.

The entire Lin Hai Base only had a few thousand warriors. This was mobilizing a significant portion of them at once.

Immediately after.

Lin Mingzhi had someone bring out a force-testing instrument pillar. This pillar was also Yuan Force equipment. Punching it would display the force of the blow. It was clearly a good item obtained from another base.

Warriors went up one by one to test their force, then were grouped according to their cultivation level.

Ye Tian kept a low profile. He didn't display the force of an Elite Martial Warrior, but instead showed the force of a Late Stage Martial Warrior.

Even so, it caused a huge sensation. Everyone exclaimed in astonishment at Ye Tian's formidable strength and high talent. Even Lin Mingzhi developed a desire to recruit him, but Ye Tian declined.

However, Lin Mingzhi didn't mind too much, merely thinking Ye Tian had a Medium Cultivation Talent. And a single Medium Cultivation Talent wasn't something the Lin Family would particularly value.

After all the warriors finished their force tests, grouping began. Elite Martial Warriors formed groups with Elite Martial Warriors, and Martial Warriors formed groups with Martial Warriors.

Different groups had different tasks. The Martial Warrior groups only needed to clear out some low-level beasts, while the Elite Martial Warrior groups needed to clear out Intermediate-level beasts.

"Captain Wind Wolf, how about we form a team?"

Ye Tian walked up to Wind Wolf and said.

Groups were ten people each, and the Wind Wolf Hunting Squad had only brought eight people, still short two.

"Little brother, are you sure you want to team up with us? Our squad only has me, a Late Stage Martial Warrior. With your talent being so high, wouldn't it be better for you to join one of those powerful groups composed entirely of Late Stage Martial Warriors?" Wind Wolf hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"I think Captain Wind Wolf is a decent person with a good reputation, so I'm willing to join your group. If you're unwilling, then just forget I said anything," Ye Tian said indifferently.

"Then welcome, little brother, to our group!"

Wind Wolf extended his right hand, smiling as he welcomed him.
