Sword Shatters Stars

Chapter 196 It's settled then.
"Alright, alright! The capable should do more! Let's form an underwater squad and use the newly added mutated beasts to train more Heavenly Warriors, shall we?"

Lin Xiufeng exclaimed dramatically:
"I've always said, this capricious beauty is both beautiful and intelligent, with an excellent figure and character!"

He said with a carefree grin:

"Give me more compliments, I love hearing them!"

Lin Xiufeng immediately addressed the crowd:
"Did you all hear that? Aren't you going to hurry up and express your thoughts? This willful beauty is going to shoulder such an important mission all by herself!"

She crossed her arms, looking annoyed, and glared at Lin Xiufeng, saying:

"Don't even think about slacking off! I want to hear what you have to say. If you make me feel good enough, I'll agree to it."

Lin Xiufeng immediately praised loudly:

"Ah! You are an absolutely stunning and capricious beauty, your radiance is like the rising sun, illuminating the darkness of the world and filling all things with vibrant life because of your beauty..."

"Those countless white clouds, drifting by just to shield you from the midday sun, lest they burn your fair and delicate skin..."

Lin Xiufeng spoke while laughing in a carefree manner.

Lin Xiufeng blew for ten minutes and laughed willfully for ten minutes.

Lin Xiufeng stopped and said:

"Hey beautiful, my throat's about to give out, isn't that enough?"

He rolled his eyes at her, clearly not satisfied.

"Only ten minutes! You're already done?"

"You only have the fighting power for ten minutes?"

Those around couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Lin Xiufeng knew that her willfulness was intentional, so she said:
"You know my fighting ability."

He chuckled and said:
"Yes, yes, I know very well. It's just that too much time has passed, and I haven't had the chance to learn about it again in a long time."

"Fine, since you only have ten minutes of fighting power left, I'll let you go."

"What should we name the new facility? What are the hiring criteria? What if someone breaks through to become a Celestial Warrior and then runs away? What should we do then?"

The crowd erupted in commotion and speculation, but Renxing suddenly steered the conversation back to the main topic.

Fang Yuan had already considered it quite thoroughly, and immediately chimed in with his suggestion:

"We're making a breakthrough by increasing the number of mutated fish-beasts in the sea. It's a perfectly legitimate method, so there's no need to recruit free agents."

“Select more stable and reliable individuals from within the organization and set a return period.”

"Upon breakthrough, one level of martial power is achieved; after breakthrough, one contributes for half a year to the newly established combat unit."

"This six months refers only to the effective task time. They usually do other things in the organization, and they participate in tasks. Once they have accumulated enough task time, they can apply to leave the group."

"The more Heavenly Martial Power one absorbs when breaking through from the ninth level of Heavenly Martial Soul to become a Heavenly Martial Warrior, the longer one can contribute to the Heavenly Martial Warrior."

"Use the Heavenly Martial Power Detection Bead as proof."

"Early withdrawal from the tour requires approval, and the condition is that one has made exceptionally significant contributions. The specific details can be further elaborated later."

"Those who enjoy the benefits but break their promises will be severely punished."

"Let me make it clear from the outset: this is a voluntary choice."

Lin Xiufeng originally intended to entrust this matter to Renxing and Fangyuan. This fighting force was personally trained by Renxing, so it was definitely in her hands.

"You two are responsible for choosing the name 'Randomly'. This fighting force will be under Rendomly's command from now on."

Despite his stubbornness, he said, "I can do the work, but the ultimate command should belong to you or Lin Qiru."

Lin Xiufeng understood; she had simply said, out of spite, that she wouldn't hit Zhao Youyue.

If the supreme command is left to arbitrarily, it will become a constraint when fighting against Zhao Youyue in the future.

“Alright, Lin Qiru and I will be the regimental commanders, and you will be the deputy regimental commanders. Except in special circumstances, we will not interfere.”

Being willful is fine, let's consider saying:
"As for the name... let's call it 'Wandering the World at Will'!"

Fang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it a bit long?"

He complained, quite displeased, in a willful manner:

"What do you mean 'looks like'?! I said I'd decide, and you're nagging again! If you keep nagging, I'll call out the 'Unfettered Undersea Squad'!"

Fang Yuan had no choice but to shut up. Lin Xiufeng said, "Fine! Let's call it 'Heaven and Earth, I Can Roam Freely'."

The capricious man unexpectedly smiled and said to Lin Xiufeng:
"You actually agreed?"

Lin Xiufeng said with a smile:
"You said you decided on it, so you can come up with whatever you want."

He asked, deliberately and capriciously, to make things difficult:
"Then I'll name it: Lin Xiufeng's Little Third Group. What do you think?"

Lin Xiufeng said with a smile:
"If you dare to use it, I dare to agree."

"Tch—that's boring!" Renxing then said seriously, "I was just kidding! Let's call it the Heavenly Might Group. What group name could be more exciting than that?"

Currently, it's probably not available.

Fang Yuan had originally intended to suggest this name.

The Anti-Heaven Organization has established the Heavenly Might Group, which grants members the privilege of breaking through to become Heavenly Warriors more quickly.

As soon as the Tianwei Group was announced, it attracted many eligible people from the Anti-Heaven Organization to apply.

The anti-heaven organization was not bound by the rules and regulations of the Heavenly Martial Corps, and Lin Xiufeng made the direct decision to establish the Heavenly Might Corps.

Compared to Zhao Youyue having to establish an unofficial Heaven-Breaking Team to bypass the restrictions of the Heavenly Martial Team, this is much more convenient.

Zhao Youyue's actions will undoubtedly draw criticism from within the Tianwu Group.

Qin Yong sent people to talk to Zhao Youyue three times.

Zhao Youyue always said she was busy or that she wasn't there.

So Qin Yong told them the time in advance and went to the Central City in person, where he finally met Zhao Youyue.

"I don't need to go into details with my junior sister. The Heavenly Martial Group controls the number of Heavenly Martial Warriors for the sake of long-term stability."

“A Heavenly Warrior who has not been tempered by time is the biggest unstable factor.”

“Now that my junior sister has broken the balance first in order to seek revenge, it will definitely prompt Fantian to follow suit.”

"Over time, the number of Heavenly Warriors on the Dream Continent has increased too quickly, and sooner or later there will be a backlash."

"How would we manage them back then? If it affected the situation, or even sent them back to Tianlan Star, who would be responsible for the consequences?"

Zhao Youyue had no interest in listening to this; it was all nonsense. But she also knew that it was impossible to persuade Qin Yong, since they were on different sides.

Qin Yong prioritizes his duties as acting minister, while Zhao Youyue prioritizes revenge.

There's really nothing to talk about. She made this move after thinking it through very clearly.

So Zhao Youyue smiled and said:

"What you're saying, senior brother, is meaningless. What kind of unofficial 'broken group' is this? It's all just hearsay."

“Everyone is making trouble for me with unsubstantiated rumors. Instead of protecting me, my senior brother is coming to interrogate me. What can I do?”

Qin Yong never expected Zhao Youyue to respond with such an outrageous attitude!

This is clearly a refusal to communicate one's thoughts on this matter; it's a complete refusal to discuss it!

"Junior sister—"

Have you considered the consequences?

"No matter how well things are hidden, they will be exposed sooner or later."

"It'll be too late to fix it then!"

Zhao Youyue still wore a smile, but her resolve remained unwavering.

"Senior brother, this Dream Continent allowed upheavals to exist for so long in the past, and it still allows rebellion and defiance to continue. Why can't a force composed of free people, dedicated to opposing rebellion, exist for a period of time?"

"Senior brother's worries are unnecessary. When the Heavenly Martial Group isolates the Lone King Volcano in the future, any extra forces will be meaningless."

"If I really establish an unofficial, top-notch team, of course I have the ability to manage and control it well."

"Since they are not members of the Heavenly Martial Corps, they do not need to be managed by the Heavenly Martial Corps' regulations."

Qin Yong calmed himself down and earnestly advised him:
"Junior sister, don't oversimplify the problem. This unofficial force will grow to a large number if it expands. They won't be content to remain subordinate forever; sooner or later, they will turn against us!"

Zhao Youyue smiled, her eyes revealing a confident yet arrogant expression.

"Senior brother doesn't understand my strength. Your assessment of my strength is far from the truth, so don't worry about it."
