Shooting an arrow at a time, Sun Can took a time of four rapid blinks to aim at his target before releasing his fingers on his bowstring.
'I need to shoot faster! Faster!! Faster!!!'
His thoughts screamed as he forced himself to take aim in a span of a two blink before shooting.
Seeing his partner in duress and failing to hit the limbs of desolate fog lizards, Huang Sai shouted, his voice prevailing over the roars of the fog monsters.
"Calm down! You're only wasting your arrows if this goes on!"
Stopping his fingers from releasing the arrow on his bowstring, Sun Can returned to a calm state.
"The first thing needed from an archer is the ability to hit the target! If you can't do that, then you've failed as an archer!"
Huang Sai continued lecturing his student.
"I understand."
Sun Can muttered as he began using the duration of four rapid blinks to take aim before firing his arrow.
Carrying 3 quivers on his back, Huang Sai spent a minute to use up the 300 arrows in them.
Shooting two arrows at a time and taking the duration of three rapid blinks to take aim, he was able to finish his arrows twice as fast as Sun Can.
Extending his hand, he grabbed two arrows from Sun Can's quiver before continuing.
After an additional 20 seconds, the archers finished their arrows with 500 desolate fog lizards pinned to the ground.
Stopping the attack of the fog monsters, Mu Gu brought them to docile state.
"Never lose your cool in battle again."
Handing energy potions over to Sun Can, Zhou Zhou said to him.
"It would never happen again, my lord."
Sun Can knelt with his head bowed.
Nodding, Zhou Zhou handed a handful of energy potions to Huang Sai.
"Your improvement is amazing."
"The training environments you provided are what should be praised, my lord."
Huang Sai said as he received the energy potions.
"And they will be."
Zhou Zhou said before letting his melee soldiers take out the fog monsters in the ranches save for the four needed to breed for the next day.
Using their full strength, the soldiers tore apart the fog monsters within 6 minutes.
The scene of the death of the fog monsters was like erasing a line on a board.
It was swift.
"If their training didn't properly portraying their strengths, then the massacre did."
Mu Gu felt pity towards the speed at which his tamed monsters were slaughtered.
[Promotion Energy Storage: 333,906 / 3,000,000 (1,000,000)]
'So much increase with just a single upgrade. The monster ranch paired with the phantom cage is unbelievable.'
'Together with my 100% drop rate lord talent, I might be able to contend with the best of the bests.'
Zhou Zhou thought after comparing the promotion energy he acquired from the fog monsters in the monster ranches today to that of yesterday.
Pulling the corpses of the fog monsters into his spatial ring, he began looting them.
Within the time needed to walk to the summoning gate, he obtained the following:
14,540 black iron-tier mist cores!
524 Green bronze-tier mist cores!
1,125 Sword shield class change certificate!
481 Sword shield soldier recruitment books!
945 Poison crossbowmen class change certificates!
567 Poison crossbowmen recruitment books!
2,284kg of sand crystals!
And a large amount of monster flesh, water bags, potions, weapons, skill books and potion formulas.
'As I said, the 100% drop rate lord talent would let me contend with the best of the bests!'
Zhou Zhou grinned seeing the amount of goods in the view of his consciousness.
Coming in front of the gate of summoning, he first summoned the 13 elven elemental archers.
Repeating the same thing that happened yesterday, he had Qin We take out everyone save for the one with the same potential as Monica.
Expecting the same question Monica asked, he was surprised when the question never came after the elf was released from Bai Yung's mental manipulation.
'I wonder how the Supreme Will does Its things.'
He mused as Hui Teng took the elf away.
Bringing out the 873 elemental archer recruitment books he got from the time ruin yesterday, he threw them together with the recruitment books he acquired from the monster ranch and the time ruin today.
'If my trade quota was higher, I might've been tempted to keep them.'
He thought as one soldier after another began stepping out of the summoning gate.
Taking out every single soldier as soon as they emerged, Lu Chong used them to train his killing proficiency.
With 3 soldiers emerging every second, he spent the next 15 minutes trying out different killing techniques on them.
[Promotion Energy Storage: 363,616 / 3,000,000 (1,000,000)]
'Having a million promotion energy isn't as easy as it seems.'
Glancing at the notification in front of him, Zhou Zhou shook his head as he began looting the corpses in his spatial ring.
Acquiring 5,942 black iron-tier mist cores and 59,420 black iron-tier elementary grade basic materials, he went to find Elder Zhao to hand over the sand crystals and the basic materials.
Receiving the materials into his spatial ring, Zhao Changshou watched as Zhou Zhou left with the soldiers flanking his sides.
"Qian Du, inform the workers to speed up the construction of the road network."
He said to his apprentice.
"Master, can I know the reason why you asked them to construct slowly before?"
The 18 years old asked the 73 years old.
"If the workers quickly used up the materials for construction and no longer have anything to do, their skills and their zeal will end up deteriorating."
"The same can be said about us."
Zhao Changshou said to Qian Du.
"I understand. Thank you for clarifying me, master."
Qian Du bowed before leaving to carry out the instruction given to him.
Going through the lord channel, Zhou Zhou sighed.
'It seems that most lords already have the ability to obtain food by themselves.'
The prices of meat in the exchange had been suppressed to the point that a piece of black iron-tier elementary grade meat was only worth eight units of basic materials.
It was far inferior to the grand occasion where he dared to sell the flesh of the lowest black Iron-tier elementary grade monster for 20 units of basic materials.
"What will happen will end up happening!"
He muttered, not letting the situation weigh him down.
Putting 98,000 units of meat in the market, he sent the remaining two thousand to the warehouse equipped with a cooler.
With just a hundred and forty nine persons in the city, much meat wasn't required to be stored.
And with the presence of the monster ranches, he could turn meat to a long term business.
Carrying out his daily trade with spiritual medicine lord, he got the items Ashburn and Peggy needed while she got the resources to increase her military strength.
Done with the issues concerning his territory, he set his sight on today's battle with the scarlet lords.
Having his soldiers gathered in the newly built war-room, Zhou Zhou placed the map redrawn by Wu Tu on the wooden table in the center of the room.
"Today, our targets are the scarlet lords around fish spring town."
Pointing at the territories of the scarlet lords with a cane, he said to his soldiers.
Looking at the spots indicated by his lord, Bai Yung saw the write up beside the drawn territories.
[Wind Howler - the wild sand scarlet lord— Territory level: Green bronze-tier elementary grade]
[Zix Pcao - the purple scale murderfish scarlet lord— Territory level: Green bronze-tier intermediate grade]
[Anp Sil - the water demon scarlet lord— Territory level: Green bronze-tier intermediate grade]
"They each have White silver-tier level combatants, so we'll be taking them a bit seriously."
"Bai Yung, Hui Teng and Qin We, you three will take care of Wind Howler and its forces."
"Lu Chong, Huang Sai and Sun Can, you three will take care of Zix Pcao."
"Aegon, you will take Nezario to deal with Anp Sil."
