C619 Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao
With Shang Jifeng as an expert, Xiang Shaoyun was elated, and brought him back to his own First Dragon Court.
Xiang Shaoyun sent a drop of the Dragon Fluid to each of the ten people he had hired and then said seriously: "I do not care about your background, but from the moment you all joined Overlord Legion, you all have to obey my leader, obey all the rules of the army. If anyone violates the rules, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After that, Xiang Shaoyun allowed the ten people to introduce themselves one by one, allowing everyone to gain a new understanding.
Amongst these ten people, there were two who deserved Xiang Shaoyun's attention. One was Zhuge Zhantian, and the other was Ma Qihao.
Zhuge Zhantian was a slightly plump youth, with average looks. He looked to be just thirty years old, and his strength had only just broken through to Dragon Entering Stage not too long ago.
His current appearance didn't look like an outstanding warrior, and wasn't too closely related to his name "Zhan Tian". However, Xiang Shaoyun felt that he was extremely astute.
He was also the only one of the first group who stayed.
On the other hand, Ma Qihao had a resolute and sturdy physique, a carefree look, and a bold and generous appearance.
His battle strength was the strongest out of the ten, and was only one step away from reaching Second Grade of Dragon Entering Stage. He urgently needed Dragon Fluid to break through his current realm.
He himself was also one of the top hundred experts in Snake-Bird Ranking, but because he offended the people from the Evil Wind Gang, he had no choice but to rely on his Overlord Legion to seek help.
The Evil Wind Gang was the faction that Feng Shamo had formed.
The other eight people all had their own unique traits and their strengths were all within the first stage of Dragon Entering Stage.
Xiang Shaoyun scattered these eight people for Tang Loongfei and Shang Jifeng to lead, leaving Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao by his side.
Normally speaking, although these people had joined Overlord Legion, they weren't restricted by anything and could freely cultivate and do whatever they wanted.
However, when the legion needed help, they would have to rush over to help.
For example, if everyone took a quest to earn merit points together, they would prioritize cooperating with their own legion. For example, if their legion was bullied by someone, in order to get back their face, the others would have to come and help …
Xiang Shaoyun did not have the time to care about the eight people he had beaten, as for Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao, he wanted to train them, and see if they could become his capable generals.
Of course, it was not because Shang Jifeng did not receive any attention, but because Xiang Shaoyun was unable to help him in any way, and could only provide him with five Dragon Fluid, allowing him to improve his own strength first and see if he could win against his current role.
Currently, only Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao were left in Xiang Shaoyun's First Dragon Court. The others had already left.
"Zhuge Zhantian, I want to keep you as my First Dragon Court's butler. What do you think?" Xiang Shaoyun asked Zhuge Zhantian first.
Zhuge Zhantian's gaze roamed around for a bit before he said, "Sure, but I hope to be able to cultivate in your isolation chamber when Overlord is not around!"
It had to be said that Zhuge Zhantian had guts to actually dare to make such a request.
Xiang Shaoyun laughed, "I have no problems with that, but the condition is that you do your job well!"
"My dream was to be the strongest butler that could manage the affairs of a large clan or sect. Now that you let me manage a small courtyard, it's the right time for me to get used to this feeling;
Ma Qihao, who was at the side, gave Zhuge Zhantian a big thumbs up, exclaiming in his heart, "This dream is really different from the norm!"
The strongest steward.
This title didn't sound bad, but it actually made people feel like he was a servant. Normal people wouldn't want to do such a thing.
However, Zhuge Zhantian should be from a famous clan, and he should be from a famous Heaven's Pride, but he had this thought, it really made people feel that it was strange.
However, Xiang Shaoyun felt that Zhuge Zhantian meant what he said.
His words' manage a large clan or sect 'could be understood to mean that he wanted to become the clan head or sect head.
If it really was like this, then his dream would be much bigger!2
"Alright, then I will wait and see!" Xiang Shaoyun replied.
He was not afraid of Zhuge Zhantian's ambition, only that kind of person would work hard to rise. What he was most afraid of was if did not have that kind of idea, he would be destined to be a mediocre person in the future.
Xiang Shaoyun was confident that he could control Zhuge Zhantian. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept him here.
Following that, he said to Ma Qihao, "Ma Qihao, I can give you enough Dragon Fluid s to help you break through your Second Grade of Dragon Entering Stage. At the same time, I also hope that you can stay here and be my guard.
"That's fine, but only if Overlord is able to fight me once I break through the Second Grade of Dragon Entering Stage. That way, he can convince me wholeheartedly!" Ma Qihao replied.
He did not say that he would fight with Xiang Shaoyun now, but wanted to fight with him after breaking through. He knew that amongst the same level, he was not Xiang Shaoyun's match, as Xiang Shaoyun had already defeated the top ten in Snake-Bird Ranking at the peak of Flying Into Heaven Stage after all. Now, he had even heard that he had defeated Lee Haonan who was in the Jiao-Luan Ranking, so he believed that he would have a chance of winning once he broke through.
If he won, how would Xiang Shaoyun even have the qualifications to make him a guard?
"I can promise you that!" Xiang Shaoyun agreed.
Just like this, Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao were temporarily left behind in the First Dragon Court.
As Ma Qihao was about to break through his Second Grade of Dragon Entering Stage, Xiang Shaoyun had even given up his seclusion room for him to break through.
When the people from the outside world heard about Xiang Shaoyun doing this, they couldn't help but feel that Xiang Shaoyun, the Overlord, was only so-so.
He actually gave his own training room to his subordinate. Next time, should he give his own position of overlord to his subordinate as well?
Xiang Shaoyun basically did not have any burden in this aspect. The reason why he agreed to Zhuge Zhantian's request and allowed Ma Qihao to breakthrough in his closed door cultivation right now, was entirely because he did not care about face.
After all, when their Overlord Legion was first established, it was the time to attract people's hearts.
Furthermore, Xiang Shaoyun believed that before long, both Zhuge Zhantian and Ma Qihao would not make such a request again, because he was confident that he could intimidate them until they were completely obedient. At that time, they would be willing to stay by his side.
Ma Qihao succeeded in breaking through the barrier in less than three days.
He himself had already reached the peak of the first stage of the Nascent Dragon Stage, so it was not difficult for the Dragon Fluid to take this step forward.
After Ma Qihao broke through, he could not wait to fight Xiang Shaoyun.
He was confident that he could suppress Xiang Shaoyun and even attack the Jiao-Luan Ranking's rankings.
It was a pity that the final result of the battle was that Ma Qihao obediently obeyed Xiang Shaoyun's arrangements and became the first guard to the First Dragon Court, taking over the role of guardian.
In this battle, only those with Overlord Legion came to spectate. The others did not know of the process.
After this battle, everyone had a genuine acknowledgement of Xiang Shaoyun in their hearts.
However, Xiang Shaoyun felt that it was not enough, he actually made an astonishing decision to challenge Di Lin!
