Zhao Yun respectfully inquired, "My lord, how many people are there in our Eternal Immortal Realm now?"

Ye Yu answered truthfully: "Including myself, there are a total of 98 people. One of them, like you before, is a special resident!"

At this point, he abruptly changed the subject, "Zilong, come with me!"

Zhao Yun nodded and followed Ye Yu toward the lord's mansion in the center of the territory.

Zhao Yun was always one step behind Ye Yu.

As Ye Yu walked, he explained the situation of the Eternal Immortal Realm to Zhao Yun in detail.

A moment later, Ye Yu led Zhao Yun into the main hall of the lord's mansion and invited the latter to take a seat.

Zhao Yun sat on the stone chair, pondered for a moment, then looked up at Ye Yu directly opposite him and respectfully said, "My lord, I have three suggestions!"

Ye Yu smiled and said, "Zilong, what is it?"

Zhao Yun respectfully said, "My lord, you just mentioned that you would be upgrading the territory's level soon. Each level upgrade allows for the construction of four more territory buildings!"

"Therefore, Yun's first suggestion is: after you upgrade your territory level, you must build two more houses, one to house the soldiers and one to house the male residents. The house that the territory currently has should be used to house the female residents."

"The reason I asked you to do that, my lord, is that firstly, it would dishonor the reputation of women if men and women lived together; secondly, if men and women lived together for a long time, it might cause other troubles, since most of the male residents of our Eternal Immortal Realm are vigorous young men."

"The reason I asked you, my lord, to separate the soldiers from the ordinary residents is because the soldiers need to conduct military training during the day and practice the cultivation techniques you are going to teach them at night. If the soldiers and civilians live together, both sides will be affected!"

"Furthermore, to build an invincible iron army that can win every battle, strict military regulations are necessary. Ordinary residents don't have as many rules, and soldiers who spend a lot of time with ordinary residents will inevitably pick up their habits, which is not conducive to managing the army!"

Ye Yu nodded slightly, agreeing with Zhao Yun's first suggestion.

Zhao Yun continued, "Secondly, I suggest that you build another well, my lord. Your territory currently only has one well, and the spiritual liquid that well produces is a rare and precious treasure. Using such a treasure for washing vegetables and daily hygiene is not only extravagant but also wasteful!"

"Third: My lord, you just mentioned that you have a blueprint for a 'Weapon Forging Workshop.' As long as you have the blueprint for forging standard weapons, you can forge weapons in batches. Therefore, I suggest you build the 'Weapon Forging Workshop,' since the soldiers need weapons!"

After Zhao Yun finished speaking, Ye Yu smiled and said, "Zilong, you are so thoughtful. I didn't think of that at all."

Zhao Yun respectfully said, "My lord, you are too modest. From your words just now, I know that you are exceptionally wise and far-sighted. If I am not mistaken, you have already thought of this."

At this point, Zhao Yun changed the subject, "My lord, you just mentioned that the grain you planted in the spirit field will take a few days to ripen. Would you like me to return to my world and purchase a batch of grain for you?"

Ye Yu smiled and said, "Zilong, I don't have any gold or silver on me. Besides, I just borrowed some grain from Xia Dou, and she's already gone back to ask her superiors for permission. If we can't borrow it, I'll find a way to gather some gold and silver so you can buy it back in your world!"

Zhao Yun nodded slightly.

Ye Yu pointed to the Starhound Silver, who had just entered from outside, and said to Zhao Yun, who was sitting opposite him, "Zilong, this is the Starhound I mentioned to you earlier. I'm thinking of using the Starhound as the mounts for our soldiers. What do you think?"

Zhao Yun turned to look at the Starhound, Silver.

His eyes lit up as he looked at the majestic and imposing Starhound Silver.

In his opinion, Starhound Silver was far more powerful than the famous steeds of his world.

Zhao Yun withdrew his gaze from the Starhound Silver and shifted it to Ye Yu, respectfully saying, "My lord, the Starhound is even more extraordinary than a tiger. If every soldier were equipped with one, I am absolutely confident that I can train an invincible cavalry for you!"

Zhao Yun's voice was strong and confident.

Seeing Zhao Yun's confident demeanor, Ye Yu smiled slightly. He liked subordinates who were full of confidence in themselves.

"Zilong, come with me, I'll take you outside the city to select soldiers!"

After saying that, Ye Yu got up and walked out of the lord's mansion.

Zhao Yun quickly followed.

......

A moment later, Ye Yu led Zhao Yun to the south gate.

Dozens of miners, toiling away at their stones on the edge of the territory outside the southern city, stopped what they were doing and stepped forward to bow respectfully upon seeing Ye Yu: "Greetings, Lord!"

Ye Yu waved his hand and said, "No need for formalities!"

Then he commanded, "Everyone, line up!"

At Ye Yu's command, all the miners quickly lined up in front of him.

After everyone lined up, many people secretly glanced at Zhao Yun, who stood majestically behind Ye Yu, their eyes filled with curiosity and envy.

Those residents who were recruited by Ye Yu along with Zhao Yun had just witnessed firsthand how much their lord valued Zhao Yun. They knew that since their lord valued Zhao Yun so highly, Zhao Yun would surely become a person of great importance in the future.

Of course, they also want to be superior to others.

Seeing that everyone had lined up, Ye Yu slowly said, "Those over thirty-five years old, please step forward!"

As soon as Ye Yu finished speaking, twelve miners stepped out from the line and stood aside.

Ye Yu then said to Chen Ergou, who was standing at the front of the line, "Ergou, you step forward too!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Chen Ergou nodded and walked over to the 12 miners who had stepped forward.

Ye Yu's gaze swept over the remaining 38 miners, and he slowly said, "The man standing behind me is Zhao Yun, a military genius and a general of our Eternal Immortal Realm's 'Spirit Dog Legion'!"

"The 'Spirit Dog Legion' is a cavalry legion I just established!"

"From this moment forward, you are all soldiers of the 'Spirit Dog Legion,' the first army of my Eternal Immortal Realm. I will not only teach you cultivation techniques, but I will also give you better treatment than ordinary civilians!"

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the 38 residents in front of Ye Yu lit up.

Ye Yu turned to Zhao Yun beside him and smiled, "Zilong, the rest is up to you!"

After saying that, he stepped aside and handed the main stage over to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun clasped his hands in a salute to Ye Yu, stepped forward, and swept his sharp gaze over the crowd before speaking loudly:

"I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan. I am honored by the lord's high regard for me and the great responsibility he has entrusted to me!"

"Welcome to the 'Spirit Dog Legion'! From this day forward, we are brothers in arms!"

"Next, I'm going to put you through rigorous training!"

"I just made a solemn pledge before my lord that I will train an invincible cavalry force that will never be defeated!"

At this point, Zhao Yun's voice suddenly rose, "Now, tell me loudly, are you confident that you can become a member of this invincible cavalry?"

Everyone answered in unison, "Yes!"

Zhao Yun frowned and said in a deep voice, "Haven't you eaten?"

"I'll ask you one more time: are you confident you can become a member of this invincible cavalry?"

"have!"

This time, everyone answered loudly, shouting it out with almost all their might.

The voices of the crowd converged, like a thunderclap, echoing throughout the Eternal Immortal Realm and spreading into the endless void beyond it.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun nodded in satisfaction.

Then, turning to Ye Yu, he respectfully said, "My lord, Yun has taken them to other places for training!"

Ye Yu nodded slightly.

As the saying goes, "If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them." He didn't want to interfere with how Zhao Yun trained his troops, nor would he interfere!

Since he had chosen to trust Zhao Yun, Ye Yu believed that Zhao Yun would definitely give him a perfect answer.

He had great confidence in Zhao Yun's military abilities.

"Come with me!"

Zhao Yun spoke in a deep voice to the thirty-odd soldiers of the "Spirit Dog Legion," and then strode toward the east gate.

Seeing this, the soldiers all followed Zhao Yun and left.

Ye Yu walked up to Chen Ergou, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled:

"Er Gou, don't overthink it. Our Eternal Immortal Realm needs an army to protect it. Zi Long didn't mean to steal your people. I hope you can understand!"

Seeing that Ye Yu had actually gone out of his way to explain, Chen Ergou was flattered and quickly said, "Lord, I didn't mean it that way. Our Eternal Immortal Realm does indeed need a guard army!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ergou's loyalty to Ye Yu increased by a few points again.

Ye Yu offered Chen Ergou a word of encouragement, then turned and left!

Upon seeing this, Chen Ergou and the others immediately said respectfully, "Respectfully seeing off our Lord!"
