Global Games: Reporting the Great Ascension Stage at the Start

Zhang Ning just handed over all the new disciples to him for management. At first, Shen Hua was stunned; how could he manage over a thousand people?

However, after careful analysis and breakdown, Shen Hua discovered that the players were actually quite easy to manage.

For players, it's enough to satisfy their core needs.

What are the core demands of the players?

It's actually quite simple—the vast majority of players just want to learn how to craft low-grade fire-type magic weapons to make a little money.

Of course, some players genuinely want to join the Heavenly Forging Bureau and pursue the path of weapon crafting. However, such players are extremely rare. The vast majority of players primarily aim to earn money by crafting lower-grade fire-based magical artifacts.

Since that's the case, then it's simple; just have the guiding disciple teach everyone.

But as soon as he brought it up, the ten disciples immediately ran into trouble and repeatedly declined:

"Deacon Xia, isn't this a bit inappropriate? We haven't been practicing for many years, and our foundation is limited. I'm afraid we won't be able to teach so many people properly."

"Yes, there are so many miscellaneous tasks at the Heavenly Forging Division, we don't have much free time..."

Before they could finish speaking, Shen Hua interrupted them, saying, "As long as you're willing to teach, your monthly allowance will double during this period! I'll approve it."

"..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the excuses immediately stopped.

Shen Hua continued, "Moreover, you only need to teach for one hour each day, which won't take up too much of your time."

The group exchanged glances and immediately agreed, "Okay, we'll teach you."

Considering the doubled monthly allowance, they felt obligated to do it.

However, they still had concerns: "Our cultivation and experience are shallow. At most, we can teach you basic things like lower-level fire-type magic artifacts. We can't teach you any more advanced weapon-refining skills."

"It's enough, don't worry about teaching me," Shen Hua said with a smile.

Some people are worried: "Isn't it too casual to hold classes outdoors in Huangtian Square? Isn't it against the rules?"

Shen Hua waved his hand dismissively, "You don't need to worry about the rules. If the sect leader blames me, I'll take full responsibility."

He knew perfectly well that Zhang Ning was a hands-off manager and wouldn't care about these things. If he really wanted to, that would be fine too; he could take back these hot potatoes himself, and he'd be happy to have some peace and quiet.

Having secured the instructors, Shen Hua turned to the vast crowd of players below and loudly announced:

"Listen up, everyone. Next, you will start by learning the simplest low-level fire-type magic artifacts and continue until most of you can forge them independently."

"After we finish learning, we'll definitely have a preliminary answer as to who has the talent for weapon crafting and who doesn't."

"At that time, those with talent who want to join the Heavenly Forging Division can do so, while those without talent will go to other divisions."

"What do you all think of this arrangement?"

Upon hearing this, the players below all cheered and applauded.

"Brother Xia Ye's arrangement is so reliable!"

"Do it this way, perfect!"

"Indeed, learning from others helps you understand your own limitations; it's good not to force others to do things you're not capable of!"

Everyone was extremely satisfied with the arrangement.

Meanwhile, inside the Yellow Heaven Palace, Zhang Ning watched this scene from afar, a subtle smile playing on his lips.

"This summer night, you've got some skills; you've handled things quite well."

"In that case, we'll leave all the troublesome tasks involving the extraterrestrials to him from now on! Letting him handle them is the perfect solution!"

Those who are capable will always have endless work to do.

This statement applies not only in the workplace but also within a sect.

Shen Hua suddenly felt a chill run down his spine; he was unaware that Zhang Ning had already set his sights on him.

However, he didn't think much of it.

"Alright, that's it for today!" Shen Hua said finally. "The formal teaching will begin tomorrow at 9:00 AM in Huangtian Square. Everyone, please remember not to be late."

The players chattered and dispersed in twos and threes.

Watching the players disperse, Shen Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This problem is finally solved!

Solving this problem will also benefit him; he will be promoted to steward and receive an extra 270 contribution points each month, which is equivalent to 270 low-grade spirit stones!

At this moment, Lu Chuan came over and said jokingly, "Not bad, Deacon Xia, this method is pretty good."

Shen Hua smiled faintly and said modestly, "The best way is to satisfy everyone."

Then he remembered something and quickly asked, "By the way, Deacon Lu, I doubled the monthly allowance for those ten disciples who are giving lessons. Is that within your authority, deacon? Do I need to apply for it from above?"

Lu Chuan shook his head and said, "No need to apply."

"Our deacons have an extra 300 contribution points. You can make decisions directly within your authority. Only major matters that exceed your authority need to be reported to higher authorities."

"The monthly allowance for ten disciples is doubled, which is just within the limits of authority. We only need to inform the Hall of Affairs; there's no need to report it to our superiors."

"Okay, I understand." Shen Hua was completely relieved.

"Now that things are settled here, I'll be leaving." Lu Chuan said goodbye with a cupped hand.

"Please take your leave, Steward Lu. I will definitely pay you a visit another day," Shen Hua replied politely.

……

After Lu Chuan left, the man with localized necrosis stepped forward and invited, "Brother Xia Ye, shall we go back to the disciples' living quarters together?"

"You go back first, I have something else to do," he politely declined.

After bidding farewell to the localized necrosis, he walked alone toward the Deacon Hall.

He needed to inform the steward about the doubling of his monthly allowance. In addition, he also needed to exchange some items.

On the way, he glanced at the Yellow Heaven Palace out of the corner of his eye.

The Yellow Heaven Palace stands majestically, and Zhang Ning must be inside.

But suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in Shen Hua's mind!

A barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips as he hatched a plan.

He quickly pretended to be unhappy and muttered to himself, "Sigh, Xu Lan is still the best to me! She not only helped me a lot, but also gave me this jade pendant."

As he spoke, he took out the Qingning Pendant from his backpack, gently stroking the spirit patterns on it, showing it great care.

This first-tier Heavenly Craftsmanship jade pendant is truly priceless in the game!

At the same time, he also focused his attention on the Yellow Heaven Palace to see if there was any reaction there.

A moment later, Zhang Ning's voice rang in his ears: "You handled things prudently and thoroughly today, managing to keep over a thousand disciples from beyond the heavens in check. Your contribution is immense."

"Your monthly allowance as a steward is just part of your job duties. This jade belt is an extra reward from me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of yellow light flew swiftly from afar. It was a lustrous and exquisite jade belt with black patterns, which landed steadily in Shen Hua's palm.

Holding the jade belt in my hand, it felt warm and heavy to the touch, with extremely elegant patterns all over its body. It was also paired with a high-quality cloud-patterned jade belt hook, clearly indicating that it was no ordinary item.

Shen Hua quickly checked the item's attributes:

[Yellow Heaven Jade Belt]

Tier 1 Celestial Crafting Equipment

Core effect: Adds the [Advanced Yellow Heaven Technique]. After use, the user's spiritual power can merge with the sect's overall spiritual power and resonate with it, greatly increasing cultivation speed.

Additional effect: Grants the [Flight] skill, which allows the user to fly for a period of time after activation.

……

At the same time, all players on the server received a system notification: [The Equipment Ranking has changed; the Yellow Jade Belt has topped the list.]

The quality of the [Huangtian Jade Belt] is even better than that of the [Qingning Pendant], so it undoubtedly tops the list.
