Recruiting Members and Activating the Organization Dungeon

The moment Xia Feng sent the message, the entire public channel exploded like a pot of hot boil that had just been mixed with a few drops of water.

"I'm not sure I understand what Master Xia Feng means. Can someone explain it for me?"

"Brother Xia Feng, please let me play with you. I have big boobs. Can you let me join your organization?"

"What does organization mean? I've never heard about it before."

"The masters always do things that we don't know. I'd better buy some of his vegetables right now instead of chatting with you."

"You want to buy vegetables? Do you even have a wok or a source of fire?

The messages kept popping up. There were a lot of people in the public channel even though it was three in the morning.

The news that Xia Feng was recruiting members for his organization quickly spread out among the players.

The public channel was quite heated, yet nobody spoke to Xia Feng.

At this moment, whoever had 150 Combat Ability was definitely among the best of the players.

Those people were all proud, and wouldn't work for anyone randomly.

Xia Feng, too, wouldn't have made a reckless decision if he had seen such an offer.

Therefore, he wasn't anxious at all.

He had set a deadline anyway. All he had to do was wait.

Very soon, the first private message arrived.

Xia Feng saw that it came from Bu Pingfan, who was Lin Feifan's friend and grew up with him.

"Master Xia Feng, this is a screenshot of my combat ability. Please take a look."

Xia Feng glanced at it. The guy's combat ability was 198, top of his region.

A player's name on the ranking was highlighted in yellow so that it would be easier for them to find themselves.

"Okay, you meet my requirements," replied Xia Feng.

Soon, Bu Pingfan sent another message with a clear purpose.

"Master Xia Feng, what do I have to pay, and what will I get, if I want to join your organization?"

Xia Feng turned what he had already thought into text and sent it back.

"You'll get a lot of things.

"First of all, we'll be sharing the information we know.

"Secondly, you can ask for my help if you're in trouble. Of course, my help won't be free, and I won't help you with everything.

"Lastly, you can ask me another question for free. I'll answer it as long as it's a valid question."

It was the first message. Xia Feng quickly sent another one.

"As for what you have to pay, to be honest, I'm not quite sure. You'll have to find out after you join my organization."

After Xia Feng sent the message, Bu Pingfan didn't respond until more than 10 minutes later.

"Master Xia Feng, I would like to join your organization. What should I do?"

Without further ado, Xia Feng opened Bu Pingfan's profile and found the "Invite him to your organization" button at the bottom. He then clicked "Confirm".

Next moment, an invitation was sent as a private message from Xia Feng.

The front side of the invitation was two calligraphic words: Xia Alliance.

[System notification: Bu Pingfan has joined the Xia Alliance.]

Bu Pingfan sent a message. "Master Xia Feng, I've accepted your invitation. Now, I would like to ask you a question as you promised."

"What is it?"

"Master Xia Feng, what's your current combat ability?"

"1,666."

The private channel was quiet for three seconds.

"Shoot! Are you even a human being, Master Xia Feng? I need to calm myself down. Bye bye."

Bu Pingfan was greatly frustrated by the four-digit number, which was far larger than his own.

The number was highly humiliating and hurtful.

Very soon, another message came. It was from Lin Feifan.

He sent a screenshot. His combat ability was 151 points, ranking second in his region.

Xia Feng gave him an invitation with a line of words on it.

"Make it to the top of your regional ranking as quickly as possible. I'll give you two days."

"Boss, consider it done." Lin Feifan made a promise confidently.

He would do the same even without Xia Feng's instruction.

After that, some other people sent private messages to Xia Feng too.

Most of them had a combat ability higher than 150, but some were short by a slim margin. Xia Feng declined those people without hesitation.

Xia Feng was not exactly inconsiderate, but as the leader of an organization, he had to prove that he was a man of his word.

He had given every new member of the organization a chance to ask him a question in order to show his strength and invoke awe in those members.

He had never worried that his secrets would be exposed in such a way.

As long as he was strong enough, he could keep those men under his control even without any trump cards.

Xia Feng hired five people in total, including Lin Feifan and Bu Pingfan.

Everybody except Bu Pingfan was the second or third place on the local ranking of combat ability.

Their purpose in joining the Xia Alliance was simple. They wanted to reach the top of the ranking.

Xia Feng was glad to see that.

One wouldn't strive to become stronger unless they had a target.

When it was noon, Xia Feng opened the organization menu.

[Organization name: Xia Alliance]

[Organization leader: Xia Feng-0364133458]

[Organization level: 1 (Upgradeable; click to view the requirements for upgrade)]

[Organization members: 6/100]

[Organization prosperity: 0]

He clicked the "organization members" column, and new information instantly showed up.

[Ordinary members: Bu Pingfan, Lin Feifan, Bai Xiaoxue, Zhang Junzhe, Luo Yu.]

Three of them were guys, and two were girls. The demography was quite balanced.

Seeing the two girls, Xia Feng couldn't help but remember Lin Xiaowan.

She had actually reached out to Xia Feng too, but her combat ability didn't meet the requirement, and she was heartlessly declined.

The organization members were divided in three levels, namely Ordinary, Elite, and Core.

The higher a member's level was, the more permissions they would have.

Every new member of an organization was in the ordinary level. To improve their level, they had to win enough credit points and the approval of the organization leader.

After checking the details of the members, Xia Feng focused his attention on the organization level.

[Organization level: 1 (Upgradeable)]

[Upgrade requirements: Wood 0/1,000, Bronze 0/300, Iron 0/100, Source Crystal (low-level) 0/30, Water Spiritual Rune 0/20, Fire Spiritual Rune 0/20, Wind Spiritual Rune 0/20, Earth Spiritual Rune 0/20]

A lot of materials were needed, but it was not entirely unacceptable.

The materials here were those in the organization storage. Members could get credit points by offering materials to the storage.

They could exchange for the items in the storage with credit points, which were also related to prosperity.

The more total credit points an organization had, the more prosperous it would be.

Prosperity, on the other hand, decided the cooldown of dungeons. The higher the prosperity, the shorter the cooldown.

Thinking about the dungeon, Xia Feng opened the organization channel, and pinged all the members.

"Everybody, I'm going to activate a dungeon in five minutes. Are any of you too busy to participate?"

Lin Feifan was the first to reply to the message.

"I'm not busy, Boss!"

Bu Pingfan followed him. "I'm not busy, Boss!"

The other three members all replied, "I'm not busy, Boss!"

It was evident that human beings were repeaters in nature.

So, five minutes later, Xia Feng mumbled to himself, "Start the organization dungeon."
