Ever since the establishment of the Three Great Academies, the management of the six armies had become more standardized. Hua Kai only needed to review some important documents.
The Military Affairs Council sent Hua Kai a report regarding China's Six Great Legions. The Military Affairs Council had decided that the Azure Dragon Legion should be expanded from five thousand people to ten thousand people. Because the minimum strength of the Azure Dragon Legion was at the Great Circle of the Qi Transformation Realm, the requirements for entering the Azure Dragon Legion, as well as the assessment method, would not change. The Azure Dragon Preparatory Group would also be expanded to ten thousand people, with the minimum requirement being at the Qi Transformation Realm.
The Vermillion Bird Army would be increased from 10,000 to 20,000 people. The cavalry would be abolished and the army would be fully integrated into the elite infantry. The minimum strength of the cavalry would be at the peak of the Natal Opening Stage, and the minimum requirement for the 20,000 reserve troops would be at the Natal Opening Stage.
The other four armies would not change. The Military Affairs Council wanted to separate the two armies from the other four and create the two strongest armies.
The population of the High Willow County had increased over the past few years. Five years ago, the slaves brought back from the grasslands had become strong. In addition, the children of the Hua family had been raised with spirit rice and spirit herbs for the past 13 years. The first batch of slaves were already over 30 years old. Now was the time when the Hua family was at its strongest.
Hua Kai agreed to the Military Affairs Council's plan. These 60,000 elites would become the strongest force in China.
Feeling the power of the [Origin of Wood] in the sky to the east of China, all of the spirit energy in the city was gathering in one place. Hua Kai knew that the seventh Foundation Stage cultivator of the family had appeared.
He came to the spirit fields and saw many people surrounding the small wooden house. This time, it was Xu Hua who had broken through.
Hua Kai saw that the spirit trees and spirit grasses in the [Spirit Gathering Formation] seemed to have become more lively. In the distance, the thirty or so newly grown fruits on the Zhong Ling Fruit Tree were slowly growing. In less than an hour, they had grown to the size of a fist. Many of the spirit herbs had reached the standard for medicinal use in a short period of time. Hua Kai guessed that Xu Hua had not only succeeded in Zhuji, but also had the possibility of becoming a magnate of the family. This method of increasing the growth of the plants in the ling fields had to be the magnate of the family.
At this time, the door of the cabin opened. Hua Kai saw Xu Hua walk out. He looked about 35 years old, much younger than before.
"The Lord has arrived. Please come in!" Xu Hua looked at Hua Kai and said.
"That's right. After reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm and becoming the head of the School of Agriculture, did you obtain any powerful abilities?" Hua Kai asked.
"The Nong family's Divine Ability [Vitality Connection] connects one's mental and willpower to an area, increasing one's recovery speed and ability to comprehend heaven and earth.
Moreover, all the spirit plants in the area would receive a growth buff. It would take at least a few years to master this talent.
My mental power is bound to the [Spirit Gathering Array], so all the spirit plants in the [Spirit Gathering Array] area are bound to my mental and willpower. The Nong family magnate and the bound spirit plants will help each other and grow together. "Xu Hua smiled at Hua Kai.
Xu Hua didn't hide anything from Hua Kai. After reaching the Nong family's Realm, his talent was no less than that of a novelist. Today, all the spirit trees and spirit herbs in the spirit fields had grown beyond their natural growth rate of a year. The spirit rice in the spirit fields had grown from a seedling to half a person's height. It looked like it would be ready to be harvested in a few days.
Hua Kai said, "Now that you have become a Nong family magnate, go to the academy and take more classes. Agriculture is the foundation of a country's development, and the High Willow County's agricultural development is still a bit weak. Send disciples to the other cities in the High Willow County to open up more spirit fields. You can also open up some spirit fields in Xia City and Ye City. The Hua family's green plum spirit fruit can continue to grow and become a representative spirit fruit of China."
Xu Hua said, "I can now increase the growth rate of some spirit plants in the [Spirit Gathering Array]. In the future, we should be able to harvest spirit rice twice a year, and the spirit calming flower can be quickly grown. After next year, it won't be a problem to harvest thousands of spirit calming flowers a year. If the family head wants to harvest more Bell Ling Fruits, I can also increase the growth of the Bell Ling fruit trees and cultivate more Bell Ling fruit trees."
Hua Kai said, "Three hundred or so spirit calming flowers a year is already enough. The Bell Ling fruit can be used to refine the Bell Ling pill, and the more, the better. Cultivate more green plum seedlings. It's best if you can plant them in all the big cities in High Willow County within two years."
Eating the Green-Skinned Plum would increase one's mental strength. For those who did not study the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, their willpower was the hardest to increase. If the Hua Family had enough Green-Skinned Plums, then everyone would not have to rely on studying the Hundred Schools of Philosophers to increase their willpower. This would greatly reduce the dependence of warriors on the Hundred Schools of Philosophers. Everyone would be able to focus more on improving their physique and energy, increasing everyone's cultivation speed.
"Yes, I know!
The green plum cores I've collected in the past few years are all here. In two months, they will grow into small trees. I will ask my disciples to personally plant these small trees in Xia City and Ye City, "Xu Hua said.
Hua Kai was talking to Xu Hua about expanding the planting of green plums when he suddenly felt a strong willpower breaking through the sky from the Pegasus Farm. All kinds of willpower in the world were gathering in the sky above the Pegasus Farm. It seemed that someone was about to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage!
There were six people in the Hua family who were at the peak of the Connate Realm, but these six people weren't in Hua City. Hua Kai and everyone else looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky above the Pegasus Farm and walked in the direction of the Pegasus Farm.
A deafening neigh sounded, and an incomparably handsome horse flew into the sky. It didn't condense a wall of Genuine Qi under its feet like ordinary divine chariots to walk in the air, but it really flew.
Light wings that were more than four meters long flapped gently on both sides of the horse, and countless Will of Wind around it lifted its whole body. Hua Kai saw that it was the Heavenly Dragon Colt that had been sent to the Pegasus Farm yesterday to breed with the handsome horse!
Hua Kai flew to the sky above Hua City, and the Heavenly Dragon Colt stared at him. It had broken through the Divine Chariot Realm and become the first batch of Pegasus in the Hua family. It had been promoted to the same level as the beginner demonic beasts.
Fifth Uncle had only reached the peak of the Connate Realm for half a year. If the Heavenly Dragon Colt could reach the seventh level, then Fifth Uncle must have also reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Hua Kai remembered that a few days ago, Fifth Uncle had told him that he hadn't felt that he had reached the half-step Foundation Establishment Stage. He didn't expect that he would succeed because of the Heavenly Dragon Colt.
The Heavenly Dragon Colt galloped as if it was familiarizing itself with its new light wings. Hua Xuan looked at the galloping Heavenly Dragon Colt in the sky and couldn't stop smiling. There were really Pegasus in the Pegasus Farm.
With Pegasus, there was no need to worry about divine chariots.
Hua Kai saw Hua Xuan's smile and knew that all the female divine chariots in the Pegasus Farm, and even some of the BMW's with good qualifications, were going to become the concubines of the Heavenly Dragon Colt. The Heavenly Dragon Colt was now the king of the Pegasus Farm.
Hua Zichen was currently training the soldiers of the Azure Dragon Legion in Leopard Jade Pass. Hua Kai had already approved the expansion of the Azure Dragon Legion. These few days, the Azure Dragon Legion had opened its doors to the public. Many of the reserve soldiers had waited for many years for the day they could finally join the Azure Dragon Legion. At the same time, the Qi Refining Realm experts of the High Willow County had also gathered at Leopard Jade Pass. They all wanted to join the Hua family's first legion — the Azure Dragon Legion.
Halfway through the examination, Hua Zichen felt that something big was about to happen. He entered the Family Storage and asked the staff on duty if there was any special news. When he arrived at the examination grounds, Hua Zichen suddenly felt that his willpower was rapidly increasing. In his sea of consciousness, the figure representing the Heavenly Dragon Colt was constantly emitting a strong willpower.
Hua Zichen often encountered this kind of situation. That was because his strength was not enough and suppressed the Heavenly Dragon Colt's breakthrough. But today, the Heavenly Dragon Colt was emitting an endless amount of willpower. Hua Zichen felt that at the same time his willpower was increasing, the [Will of Metal] around him was also gathering towards his body, quickly forming a cycle.
The cycle of willpower in his body was able to retain the willpower. Hua Zichen knew that he had finally reached half-step Foundation Establishment. Before he could be happy, the amount of willpower transmitted by the Heavenly Dragon Colt in his sea of consciousness was increasing. The amount of [Will of Metal] entering his body was also increasing. This huge amount of willpower entered his body and circulated according to his willpower. Soon, this cycle of willpower was rapidly forming within his body. Hua Zichen did not do anything, but he felt that he was not far from Foundation Establishment.
Everyone in the examination grounds looked at Hua Zichen. Everyone saw that the [Will of Metal] around Hua Zichen was getting stronger and stronger, and they all guessed that he was about to reach Foundation Establishment.
Ordinary people would go into seclusion and try to understand the order of heaven and earth. No one had ever seen a Foundation Establishment standing up. Today, Hua Zichen gave everyone a good show.
"Captain, what are you doing?"
Hua Peng saw Hua Zichen open his eyes and came to his side to ask. He guessed that Hua Zichen had successfully reached Foundation Establishment, but he did not dare to be sure.
"Foundation Establishment successful. I've broken through to the second level of Foundation Establishment!" Hua Zichen said with a faint smile.
Many people were shocked. The Azure Dragon Army finally had a Foundation Establishment cultivator. It was just that this Foundation Establishment cultivator came too suddenly. In the future, they would not have to be afraid of a Foundation Establishment cultivator sneak attack. This was very significant for an army.
The Azure Dragon Army now had more than 60 people in the Postcelestial Realm, and this was because most of the elites had been taken away by the [Undead Army]. All the official members had reached the Qi Refining Realm, and there were more than 6000 people in total. This was simply unimaginable, because in the Qi Refining Realm, one could already assume the role of a general. The Azure Dragon Army was now made up of 6000 generals. More than half of them were riding BMW, and all of them had the [Golden Silk Soft Armor].
The operation of the Top Three Schools allowed the Hua family's resources to be better used. The strength of the six armies began to rapidly increase, and the Hua family's control over the High Willow County became stronger. This allowed the Hua family's businesses to become stronger and stronger, creating more profits and influence. This led to the development of even more businesses.
