Chapter 326: Member Recruitment Frenzy
Trantor: Halcyon Trantions Editor: Halcyon Trantions
Just because the tournament had ended didn’t mean that it was time to rx.
If anyone had such mentality, they might not even make the top 100 in the tournament next year.
Lu Li and the others had a lot of work to do to prepare themselves for the future.
Firstly, they had to continue their progression into the Instance Dungeons. Lu Li’s knowledge from
his rebirth might have been very advantageous for them, however, if theycked the opportunities
to utilise the knowledge, it would be useless.
For the Xin Xin Mercenary Group, the best way to maximize the use of Lu Li’s rebirth knowledge was
through Instance Dungeons. They had to continue to strive for First Clears and set records in order to
obtain equips and SP.
Apart from this, their mechanics had to reach the next level.
Lu Li knew better than anyone else that the target behind his back was bing bigger and bigger.
The gap between him and the other professional yers was shortening as they continued to
develop their game knowledge and game sense.
Lu Li had put in so much effort just to stay ahead of everyone. If he wanted to continue to be the top
yer, it was crucial that he worked even harder in all aspects of his game.
Lastly, he had to develop Xin Xin Mercenary into a guild. Through this tournament, he realised the
importance of a guild and amunity that strived towards one goal. No matter how many First
Clears their current group could take, they stillcked the numbers and resources for tournament
participation.
Lu Li had finally realised what the phrase "strength in numbers" meant. A small team of elite yers
would never be able to defeat an entire army of noobs.
If Lu Li could form 100 small groups, he could pass on his knowledge to them after he hadpleted
an Instance Dungeon. The groups would then follow in Lu Li’s footsteps and clear the Instance
Dungeon 100 times.
100 Elite Groups – this was the goal that Lu Li had set for himself. It was also the maximum limit in a
guild.
Every other major guild that entered the professional league tournament also obeyed this rule. It
wasmon knowledge that you needed at least 100 elite groups to sustain a guild.
The yers required for instance dungeons in Dawn varied from 5 up to as many 40 yers.
One hundred elite groups was equivalent to 10 teams of 40 yers.
Super-guilds like Glory Capital were rumoured to have more than 3000 elite groups, which was more
than 100 teams of 100 yers. This was the fruit of their 10 years of hard work.
Lu Li was quite discouraged because every time he cleared the Howling Caverns, Glory Capital would
have cleared it more than 1500 times.
As such, he had a lot of work to do to catch up to the other guilds. Since the tournament had just
ended and everyone was talking about Xin Xin Mercenary Group, Lu Li used this opportunity to
recruit as many yers and potential experts into his new guild as possible. Lu Li and Square Root
Three had already announced their new guild name "Ruling Sword" during the championship
interview from Home of Esports.
When they announced this, many yers searched for it in the guild browser.
It’s not there?
It’s not there!
Many yers were disappointed because they couldn’t find it.
They had announced the guild before it was officially created, and yers felt like they were being
teased by Lu Li.
However, although everyoneined, they still waited to join the guild.
It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to join the guild of the championship team.
Three years ago, some people had joined a small and unknown guild, not expecting much at all. They
only joined because they thought the name of the guild was cool. The guild then continued to
develop and grew to be one of the top elite guilds in the game.
That small guild was called Peerless City!
They weren’t famous for anything nor did they offer any incentives for their guild members.
However, they were lucky enough to be of thergest guilds in the game.
Now, an even better opportunity had arisen in the form of Ruling Sword. The members could brag to
others that they were from a guild that had won the championship.
Usually, during the initial stages of building a new guild, the guild master wouldn’t put any
restrictions on joining. Otherwise, the guild wouldck numbers and create an arrogant reputation
for themselves.
They would seem too good for others.
As the guild became more and more powerful, then they would set restrictions and only allow the
better yers to join.
Lu Li had only created the guild at the end of the day and announced it on the world chat.
"The Guild has been created. Recruiting all yers to join.
His announcement was instantly drowned in messages from other yers. The entire server was
excited.
Earth Dragon: "Blood Red War g congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Water Fairy: Drizzle Court congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Ster Star Silver Union: "Azure Guard congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Lucky Southern Persian: "Seventh Heaven congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Dancing Star Dream: "Gangnam Royals congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Wood Fearing: "Gods of Dusk congratte the establishment of Ruling Sword."
Whether it was the guild masters, celebrity yers or famous gamers, everyone was excited to see
how Ruling Sword would develop.
It was a great start to their newly established guild. Lu Li and the others had gained respect and
recognition purely by their own strengths, which was a verymendable thing.
Lu Li was well aware that despite all the congrattory messages, many were nning and
developing strategies to defeat them.
Only one team could win the Shadow Cup and most people would do anything to achieve that.
By searching the guild name, yers could see the IDs of yers who were above the Elder rank in
the guild.
Ruling Sword had one guild master, two co-leaders and nine elders, with all the other positions being
empty. It was currently a level 1 guild and allowed a maximum of 1000 members.
The guild master of Ruling Sword was Lu Li, the co-leader was Square Root Three and Wandering
was an elder. The three were too busy to pay attention to the world chat.
They were busy recruiting yers!
There were a countless number of yers that applied for the guild. Within 30 seconds of the
announcement, more than 5000 yers had applied to join their guild, and there were many more
toe.
"Recruit more Mages and Priests," Square Root Three said.
Lu Li and Wandering began focusing on recruiting Mages and Priests, as well as other sses that
were popr within the current meta.
Mages could level fast and they had high damage potential. Priests were an essential ss for
Instance Dungeons. As such, you could never have too many Mages or Priests. Besides these two
sses, Shamans, Warlocks and Hunters were also very useful in Instance Dungeons.
"Try to aim to recruit yers that are above level 15. If their name seems dodgy then be careful,"
Wandering suggested.
You could tell the personalities of some yers through their ID. For example, a yer with the ID
"Daddy is Lit" would most likely be a troll or useless yer. It would be wise to filter out these
yers and prevent them from joining.
The restriction was added and all yers that were level 15 and below were filtered out.
Fat Monkey!
This name immediately caught Lu Li’s attention.
The future king of fire mages! He then looked at his level; Fat Monkey was level 11....
Whether he was level 1 or level 11, he had to be recruited into the guild. Lu Li epted the future
elite yer into the guild without hesitation.
Beard Stubble, level 7 – a formidable Hunter in the future. From Lu Li’s memory, he was the first one
to lure a Wild boss to a quiet ce and had spent more than 10 hours to solo-kill it.
Eternal Night Light, Power of Friendship and Wolf Fang were all potential star yers.
If Lu Li saw a familiar ID, he immediately recruited them into the guild. Knowing that all these yers
had the potential to be top yers was a great feeling.
This was another advantage that he had gained from his rebirth. Lu Li could see the future glory of
these yers before they developed.
