Chapter 573 - 346: The Foundation of the Youngsters, Kirin, Growth
As time progressed, the power of Li Ming’s forces grew increasingly formidable, and the twenty-four youths who were the stable backbone of the base city were gradually becoming insufficient.
Especially in the western territories, with the construction of defensive fortresses, once successful, the need for such talents would become even greater. By then, merely twenty-four outstanding combatants could not satisfy the demand.
Therefore, it became an urgent matter to cultivate a new batch of elite forces.
And these forty-eight youths were the first group in the plan.
Unlike the twenty-four youths, Li Yang, who possessed enormous purifying abilities to bestow strength, directly unlocked dual abilities for each of them at once, ensuring their initial growth was filled with potential.
Moreover, growing up around the Soul Nurturing Tree, which could enhance one’s spiritual power, they laid a firm foundation for their spiritual strength.
Besides,...
"These spiritual monkeys have been left to you by your foster father Lord Li Ming. If you can establish a good foundation with one of these monkeys during your time here and it is willing to follow you, congratulations, you will acquire a Royal Beast companion when you graduate."
"Furthermore, at that time, you will also be taught the secret methods of controlling Royal Beasts from the overseas heaven caves. With your strength, plus the secret methods of controlling Royal Beasts and a Royal Beast itself, your power could essentially double."
In the center of the woods, the Daoist mentor Qingchengzi smiled at the forty-eight youths gathered around him, a hint of amusement flickering across his face.
