After the tide recedes, the wind will again stir up new waves.
The Martial World is no different.
Divine Iron City.
With Jiang Dali, the long-missing Black Wind Village Chief, reappearing, Divine Iron City imdiately beca even more lively.
Although the chaos caused by the Fist Tao God in the city injured many players, under Jiang Dali’s proper arrangents, all the players who suffered losses were compensated.
The Black Wind Martial Arts First Tournant thus continued to proceed fervently, even attracting more players and Martial World people to co and watch.
...
Inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Jiang Dali, wearing a black large cloak, sat calmly and firmly on the high platform of the Martial Arts Arena inside the mansion, his bronze-like chest exposed like a rock, and he was intently focusing on a roster he held in his hand.
On his left and right stood eighteen burly n, each with gleaming eyes, dressed in black with a red belt around their waists, full of spirit and standing guard, showing extre loyalty and respect toward him despite not directly looking at him.
anwhile, the sound of "crackling and popping" constantly ca from the Martial Arts Arena below.
It was a hundred strong n of Divine Iron City standing in the arena, allowing another group of comrades to whip them forcefully with wooden sticks and leather whips. Even though their bodies turned red, none of them uttered a word, showing great resilience.
By the ti Jiang Dali finished reviewing the roster, these strong n had been training for half an hour.
Jiang Dali looked up at the elite of Divine Iron City on the Martial Arts Arena and nodded slightly in appreciation.
These cross-trained strong n were personally selected by him from among the many guards of Divine Iron City, intended to be trained into a cross-trained elite force to enhance the mountain village’s hard power.
This was also his strategy to avoid Black Wind Village and Divine Iron City relying too much on players and external Martial World people.
He intended to spend ti and significant resources to cultivate more loyal warriors of his own.
Although this strategy was ti-consuming and might not be of great imdiate use, it was a fundantal cornerstone of a long-lasting force, sothing that might not be always used but should not be absent.
Therefore, Jiang Dali not only tilted resources in support but also firmly backed it up with his attitude, allowing this part of the force within his influence to start forming solid foundations.
He gazed at the strong n in the Martial Arts Arena, speaking softly yet clearly into the ears of all the strong n below, "Train this way, don’t fear pain or hardship. If any of you can achieve Great Success in the Golden Body Skill within a year, this village chief will have special rewards."
"Yes!"
The hundred strong n shouted in unison, their Blood Qi soaring, showing maximum effort. Even if the wrist-thick wooden sticks broke on their bodies, they didn’t flinch.
Jiang Dali stood up, ponderingly giving a plain instruction, "Since so many experts have co to seek refuge recently, let them wait in the Martial Arts Discussion Hall. The village chief will personally et them after finishing handling affairs."
"Yes!"
A waiting Internal Affairs Elder at the steps of the high platform imdiately bowed in response, then respectfully welcod Jiang Dali down the steps.
Personally escorting Jiang Dali into a lavishly decorated Dragon Sedan carried by eight people.
"To the back mountain."
Jiang Dali leaned back boldly in the carriage, giving an order and then closing his eyes to rest, pondering the Martial World talents and experts recorded in the roster, a satisfied smirk curling on his lips.
Since the end of the battle on Heaven Mountain up to this day, even though it was rumored that his life was uncertain, many Martial World experts who had been observing eventually ca to seek refuge.
So of these seekers went to Black Wind Village, others to Divine Iron City or other sub-branches like the Black Dragon Gang. Even if they hadn’t t him, they temporarily stayed, waiting to be recruited.
It can be expected that among these people, there are bound to be spies sent by other forces to investigate the truth.
But most ca with great sincerity and their purposes to seek refuge.
Before the Black Wind Village Chief and the World Association’s Xiong Ba compete for the true overlord of the vassal state, these people will still choose to watch from the sidelines.
Once the contest between Black Wind Village and the World Association ends and the true overlord erges, the smart ones will naturally not hesitate anymore.
Even if Jiang Dali remains missing and his life uncertain at that ti, most wise people would still be willing to take a gamble.
After all, offering help in tis of need shows true sincerity, while embellishnts may not be appreciated.
Regardless of the current prestige of Black Wind Village or the mountain village’s resources like Dragon Ascending Land, Infinite Sword Wall, Divine Iron City, Lingyun Cave, Hero Island, etc., they all present substantial benefits attractive to any Martial World person.
Jiang Dali decided to personally et this group of seekers who ca to Divine Iron City, as there were indeed so individuals among them who piqued his interest.
Black Wind Village’s forty-plus sub-branches ford a structure of a gang, a city, and an island.
Among them, players served as the main backbone, while a minority of native NPCs barely supported the high-end combat layer of the mountain village.
But in terms of top-tier power, there were only Wang Yuyan and the three Heavenly Persons of Yin Yang Temple.
Figures like Divine Fire Sect’s Bai Ting, Divine Iron City’s Liao Rushen, and Hero Island’s Island Masters Long and Mu were rely vassal force experts and not truly part of the village.
