401 Base Established, Personnel Assembled

After Roger finished speaking, An Yuan shook his head repeatedly and said, “Su Bai is really amazing. I admire him for being the champion. I want to learn from him.”

An Yuan looked at Su Bai and then walked up as if he was really here to learn.

Roger did not say anything. After all, Su Bai needed people at the moment. He could reward them after they finished their work.

As for Su Bai, Roger believed that Su Bai was not looking down on anyone. Roger felt that Chen Dong’s words were just provoking.

“Are you here to cause trouble or to help?” Roger asked.

Chen Dong gritted his teeth and said, “With that attitude, who would be willing to help? He has only achieved first place a few times. Who does he think he is, acting like this? Yet, he still wants us to help him? Does he really think he’s…”

Before Chen Dong could finish his words, Su Bai grabbed him by the collar and threw him out.

Before throwing Chen Dong out, Su Bai said to the remaining people, “I’ll say it again, if you want to help, do the work. If you don’t want to help, leaven on your own. I’m not stopping you, and I’m not holding a knife to your neck asking for your help.”

Originally, some students had heard of Su Bai’s reputation and wanted to help. Some people came because of Yan Xuan and Roger.

They glanced at each other and did not say anything, simply continuing with their work.

An Yuan was also among the group of people working. As he worked, he surveyed his surroundings.

If it were not for Su Bai, he would have been the most renowned and talented Alchemist or Beastmaster. But now, everything was ruined because of Su Bai.

Although there were some well-known families interested in recruiting Su Bai, they were all families that Su Bai did not look up to. That led to An Yuan’s resentment.

However, just because some families were not to Su Bai’s liking did not mean they had no grudges against Su Bai. Furthermore, Su Bai had made it clear that he wanted to handle things himself and would not rely on any family.

If Su Bai was targeted by other families, there would be no one behind Su Bai to help him.

An Yuan sneered. After memorizing the layout of the entire base, he understood where the defenses were and where they seemed the weakest.

If there was a family that really hated Su Bai, An Yuan could sell the information.

Everyone continued with their work and were busy.

Su Bai had planned to finish building his base in four days. Now, he has finished it in just two days.

Su Bai looked at those who helped with gratitude. He said, “These materials are for you all. Consider it a little reward.”

Almost everyone who came received three crystals and a Beast-core. Beast-cores were the most scarce for these people.

Although some big families did not value Beast-cores, they were still better off having one than not.

“Thank you. If you need any help in the future, feel free to look for us!” The person who spoke came from a modest background. He had come this far relying solely on his own efforts.

Su Bai could help him a lot by giving him a Beast-core. Even Lu Le, who was watching from the side, was extremely surprised.

“Boss, are you really so wealthy?” Lu Le asked.

Su Bai smiled at Lu Le and said, “My wealth is beyond your imagination.”

Hearing Su Bai’s words, Lu Le and the others were astonished.

Su Bai’s reward was already generous to people who came to help. If they were working under Su Bai, he would undoubtedly be even more generous.

Su Bai surveyed the base. Then, he looked at the place where he and his group would reside.

“Behind here is where you all will stay,” said Su Bai.

Just when Su Bai was about to introduce them to Lu Le, Yan Xuan, and the others properly, Roger approached Su Bai.

Roger asked, “By the way, do you need more people here? I have a student who wants to join you.”

Su Bai furrowed his brows. He had not even achieved any significant results yet, but the other party already wanted to join his group. He thought, ‘Could there be some ulterior motive?’

As Su Bai had recently witnessed the conflicts between the major families. When someone approached, especially when Su Bai had nothing, his first reaction was that the other party seemed to have a purpose. Otherwise, a person would not join so suddenly.

Su Bai forgot that he was a dual-cultivator in both Alchemy and Beastmaster. Such strength was extremely rare in the world.

Facing Su Bai’s skepticism, Roger patted Su Bai’s head and said, “What are you thinking? In the previous competition, you created crystals from that pile of junk. That alone was shocking enough. This is the one.”

Roger pulled a little girl over. The little girl appeared calm, and her eyes were clear as if they had no impurities.

“She is one of the more capable girls I have. But compared to you, she’s definitely lacking a lot and wanted to learn from you here.”

Su Bai raised an eyebrow and said, “Sure.”

Su Bai had a good eye for people and felt that the little girl could be molded well. Moreover, since the base had just been completed, he was lacking hands to help with various tasks.

When the little girl heard that Su Bai agreed, her eyes brightened. She looked straight at Su Bai and said, “Thank you! I promise I won’t cause any trouble for everyone!”

After Su Bai accepted the little girl, the others also started to show interest. At the same time, a young man walked up to Yan Xuan.

“I’m your senior brother, recommend me!” said the young man to Yan Xuan.

Yan Xuan gritted his teeth and reluctantly walked up to Su Bai. Yan Xuan said, “This is my senior brother. He’s below me in strength, but his character has been guaranteed by the professor. He’s not bad, although his character is still inferior to mine.”

Su Bai smiled and nodded at the young man. Su Bai said, “Alright.”

This time, Su Bai only accepted these two people. One was because he trusted Roger. The other was because he trusted Yan Xuan.

Of course, when Su Bai saw Yan Xuan’s intimate interaction with his senior brother, he knew that it was not something an ordinary person could achieve.

Su Bai shrugged. Now he had enough people, including himself, a total of six. Moreover, if they were really busy, Roger, Zhang Yan, and the others could help.

“Thank you all for today,” said Su Bai.

When they wanted to recommend themselves again, Su Bai had already asked them to leave. Some could not make Su Bai remember them, so they wanted to go through Roger instead.

Roger had a temper that was much more explosive than Su Bai’s. After leaving Su Bai, Roger directly said to the others, “Although you came here to help me, you haven’t shown any of your talents, so, it’s unlikely that Su Bai would accept you. He doesn’t need people now. You might as well wait until he needs people in the future and join directly.”
