Chapter 1110: Clan Master, Sect Master
“The battle at the Chinese plains is far from over!”
After all the former members of Beautiful Robes Faction joined Lovely Land, Happy said something that caused all the higher ups of Lovely Land to become dumbfounded .
“Sect master, we’ve been doing quite a lot of things over the past half a month . We already worked together with Wind Assault Tower to destroy all of Class One Hall’s branches in the south, and their members have been reduced to less than one hundred thousand people from its original one million . Blood Alliance has crumbled, and it is now made up of only a dozen small sects; it’s only gasping for its last breath now . There’s no need to even mention the twelve Beijing sects . Wind Assault Tower will definitely not spare these traitors . Those famous elites can’t even get out of their cities . I heard that a group of people have chosen to delete their characters and replay the game . Right now, the entire Chinese plains is divided equally between Lovely Land and Wind Assault Tower . Even if Wild Wolves wants to take action, no one will dare to work together with them . ”
“That’s right . ” Someone agreed to this among the crowd in the hall .
“We have Wandering Know-it-all around, and Dream Clouds as well as Blood Robes won’t be able to do anything else . The leader of Wild Wolves has lost twice in your hands, and he doesn’t have the right to continue remaining arrogant in the Chinese plains, that is, unless Evil Emperor doesn’t want to have a good life and continues causing trouble to us . ”
Quite a number of Lovely Land members agreed to those words . For a moment, public opinion varied, but all of them agreed on the fact that Lovely Land had currently gained its footing and that Class One Hall and its allied forces only had remnants remaining . It was only a matter of time before they were destroyed . As of current, their most important task was to set up a system, and the revenge fund could be cancelled . They had to set up a sect system that would be effective over time and was stable .
The cries for Happy to set up a sect system was the loudest .
The other was the appointment and dismissal of certain people in the sect .
During wartime, Ji Feng had practically been in control of appointing people to certain posts in Lovely Land, and most of those posts were taken by all his former subordinates . Now, there was no longer any need for these people to take up those posts temporarily, and they should make things more official .
The hall was as loud as a market right now .
Ji Feng and One Emperor were the only ones in the crowd who did not say anything .
The former frowned because he was staring at the unfamiliar faces, and he seemed to be hesitating . He appeared to want to say something, but did not know where to begin .
One Emperor sat at the seat to the right of the seat of honor . His fingers moved back and forth his longsword, which was placed on the tea table . It seemed like he did not hear the words of the people in the hall at all, and it was as if everything around him had nothing to do with him .
When Happy saw that everyone was acting as if the world was at peace now and they spoke and acted as if they could share the world together with each other now, Happy could not help but frown, and he lamented in his heart . ‘There’re plenty of elites here, but there aren’t many who can see far into the future . It’s no wonder why Dream Clouds originally said that Lovely Land is just a bunch of misfits .

‘Even though our combat strength is pretty decent, Lovely Land is still sorely lacking when it comes to harboring the lofty ambition and magnanimity of those who have the world in their hands…’
Happy could not help but remember the world three years later .
Mu Clan was an organization where all its members were giants, because aside from having Happy, it also had Silver Wolf, Thunderous Battle, and other people who were both good with fighting and strategizing . These people maintained the clan with everything in their power . Little North and Wind Chimes supported them by the side, and he also had Momo, Ancient Wind, Responsible Hero, Rampaging Dragon, Phoenix Dances, Tea Words, Wandering Know-it-all, Black Rose, and Red Coral helping him .
Mu Clan had an ample supply of both top-class elites at the front line or its reserve forces at the second line .
These people had slowly accumulated their strength step by step, and plenty of them had the ability to become outstanding forces alone . But the more important thing was that each of them was worthy of trust, and all of them were close to him .
That was why Mu Clan was as sturdy as a cornerstone!
But as for Lovely Land…
Happy believed that aside from Ji Feng, One Emperor, and Tea Words, he could not find many others who could provide obvious help to him . After all, he believed that Ji Feng was pretty up to standard, there was no need to even doubt One Emperor’s strength, and Tea Words could bring the most accurate and detailed information for Lovely Land because of his relationship with Head Hunters .
They were like scattered sand!
Even though Lovely Land currently had more than one million members, even though they had more than four hundred branches in the north, and even though this large organization was already incredibly huge, when Happy compared Lovely Land to Mu Clan, he could clearly see where Lovely Land was lacking, and also where its fatal weakness was .
Most of Lovely Land’s members were solo players or were former members of other sects, such as people who quit Wind Assault Tower, were Ji Feng’s former subordinates, or were elites from other sects .
These people might have shown decent strength in combat, and when they gathered together, they formed a magnificent sight, but the potential they brought about was also incredibly clear . All sorts of good and bad people were mixed together, and they were scattered sand .
These people might be united when they faced invaders and could direct all their energy at one target, but what about now?
Happy kept quiet at the seat of honor while he quietly observed the familiar yet unfamiliar faces gathered below him . The wariness and uneasiness in his heart grew stronger .
This was something he already knew before the battle, but now, that feeling was even clearer and more intense than before .
He used some tricks when he fought against Dream Clouds .
Through their headquarters outside the city, he managed to fix every members’ combat strength in one place, and he used a very simple method to show their strong offensive side while he also intentionally made Dream Clouds ignore the details of the sect .
Through a few ingenious machinations, he expanded his advantage, and one of it was by making him and One Emperor personally lead the battle, because he was worried that these people would not be able to perfectly complete their task and reach the effect he expected .
If it were not for Happy’s painstaking arrangements, when they actually engaged each other in battle, this ununited group of people would lose horribly .

This was the real reason behind why Happy had to quickly stop Lovely Land’s crazed expansion speed and force it to stay at the north of Changjiang .
Happy did indeed have the heart of someone who desired to become strong, and he did want to expand Lovely Land .
Mu Clan’s success also did not stop Happy from having the thought of completely controlling the Chinese server . Of course, he would do it in a different manner compared to Dream Clouds .
Hence, Happy did not mind forming more branches when he defeated Class One Hall, and he also did not mind occupying more resource points and even conquering the entire Chinese plains!
But Lovely Land’s swift expansion and lack of a strong foundation caused Happy to feel uneasy .
That was why Happy made a firm rule to prevent certain things that were beyond his control from happening—even if they built branches in the south, they were not to control even a single resource point!
To the outsiders, this was a promise Happy made with the Iron Triangle Alliance, and he was taking care of Wind Assault Tower this way .
But only Happy himself knew that if he did not hurry up and stabilize Lovely Land while it continued expanding and just let it continue growing, there was a high possibility that Lovely Land’s next enemy would be Wind Assault Tower! In fact, their next enemy might even be themselves!
*****
“Sect master, why don’t we make an announcement to get rid of the revenge fund system we spontaneously created? Or we can make it so that the revenge fund will only be given to core Lovely Land members now?”
After the ground discussed matters for a while, they sent Ji Feng to make a conclusion .
But Ji Feng’s wit and view of the overall situation was much clearer than the others in the hall . Even when he was pushed forward to make a conclusion, he did not immediately make it seem as if he was a meritorious statesman . Instead, he acted cautiously . “Sect master, if you think it’s feasible, we can refer to the systems Class One Hall and Wind Assault Tower used and set up a system that is suitable for Lovely Land . ”
His mind had wandered for a moment, but now, Happy returned to the present . His gaze gradually gathered on Ji Feng’s face .
Ji Feng said nothing, but while Ji Feng lowered his head in slight uneasiness, Happy waved his hand and announced, “We can cancel the original revenge fund . Vice Sect Master Ji, make a name list and list out all the core members of Class One Hall . We’ll then make a new list for a new revenge fund . Have their bounty set at two million, and the people who can benefit from it is still anyone who kills them . ”
Even though he agreed to the group’s opinions, Happy’s subsequent words also showed his methods in handling the matter, along with how he would not allow others to question his abilities .
The group of people in the hall nodded .
“Sect master, there’s also the matter about the appointment of personnel in the branches…”
Once they settled a huge matter, Ji Feng quickly presented the second problem .
These problems were all problems that Lovely Land had to solve quickly!
Before Ji Feng finished speaking, Happy waved his hand to interrupt his words . “We don’t have to be in a hurry to appoint personnel to manage the positions .
“Lovely Land is made of heroes who joined us out of righteous ardor . Every person is very good, but since it has not been long since we joined, we don’t know each other too well . If we start appointing these people, it will be unavoidable for us to be careless . That’s why, before we appoint anyone, we will need to set up a special elder council . They will be in charge of monitoring and examining all the central members of Lovely Land . Then, we can choose those who are the most suitable to take up the positions . ”
Ji Feng’s eyes lit up . “Sect master, are you saying that we will first set up an elder council? But what about the name list for the elder council?”
“Wandering Know-it-all will take up the post and choose them . He will ensure that these people will treat all the Lovely Land members equally, and they will be fair and just . ”
“Wandering Know-it-all?” Everyone was shocked by the major news Happy just dumped on them . “Sect master, will Wandering Know-it-all join Lovely Land?”
“That’s right . ” Happy surveyed the room . “I believe that all of you know that Master Wandering Know-it-all is an upright man . He will not be careless in this area . I’m certain that he will choose candidates who are the most suited to be the elders of our sect . ”
No one objected to this .
Forget about the fact that Happy had already made his decision in this, there was no one who would doubt Wandering Know-it-all’s reputation and fame in World of Martial Arts, anyway .
Those who originally wanted to fight for their rights also instantly squashed all their dissatisfactions and their ulterior motives back into their hearts .
When he saw that no one objected to his words, Happy knew that all his prior preparations were not in vain . He redirected his gaze and looked at Ji Feng . “But before we start appointing personnel, we must first set up a system . I’ll let you deal with this, vice sect master . Within three days, give me the initial draft for a system . ”
“Understood,” Ji Feng answered .
“By then, we will choose the branch masters and vice branch masters for each branch according to this system . One month later, based on everyone’s performance and overall strength, we will choose the most suitable batch of people to take up the posts . ” Happy stopped talking for a while before he continued . “Vice sect master, I heard there are plenty of branches in the south of Changjiang that do not have a branch master . I have a list of names here . Please help me make an announcement . One month later, we will talk about this matter again . ”
“Understood,” Ji Feng answered once more .
Many of the people in the hall found themselves led around the nose by Happy’s words, which helped him control the entire situation . It was only then that many people came to a realization: Happy, who was incredibly strong, also seemed to have his own methods in managing a sect . Not only did he not relax in the matter of appointing personnel, he had even brought out Wandering Know-it-all and an elder council . All of them also had to operate based on his orders and progress .
This was completely different from what they initially thought .
Happy’s methods were foolproof, and he seemed to already be prepared to become their sect master!
“Are there any other questions, vice sect master? If not, we can be dismissed . One Emperor, you stay . Others, please leave . ”
