Chapter 96: Dislike, Excitement, and Ambivalence
After escorting his newest sect members back to the village, Benton returned to the area outside the arena. As the site of his sect and land he personally owned, the place was already becoming special to him, and he wanted to spend as much time as possible there.
Work was never finished for a sect leader, apparently, because he had no time to wander his territory just to get familiar with it. He had System business to attend to. Three items, actually. One he didn’t want to do; one he was excited by; and the final one he was kind of ambivalent about.
His mom had raised him to eat his Brussel sprouts before dessert. Speaking of that nasty vegetable, he hadn’t encountered it on his new planet. If for no other reason, his being transmigrated to a cultivation world was truly a blessing.
The first item—the thing he didn’t want to do—was a certain status check, but wants and needs were two different things indeed.
“System,” he said out loud because there was no one around to hear, “show me the Build a Proper Foundation Quest status.”

Just as he’d thought. The first two prerequisites had been fulfilled. His average loyalty, however, had dropped below the required six with the addition of the new sect members.
Time to see exactly how bad it was.
“System, what is my current average Loyalty Rating?”
4.9
Well, that wasn’t as bad as it could have been. The villagers must all have some loyalty toward him, or the average would have been much, much lower.
Okay, the fun stuff was up next.
