One night passed quickly.

The next morning, while Zhou Yu was meditating and cultivating, suddenly the token on him flashed.

Zhou Yu immediately opened his eyes, then took out the token and opened the barrier.

Outside, it was one of the two protectors who had guided him to Fengyuan City yesterday.

Zhou Yu promptly bowed and said:

"Protector, sir!"

The man gave a faint smile.

"No need to be polite. By the way, I haven’t told you my name yet."

"My name is Zhao Wu."

"The other one with me is my brother, Tang Wen."

Zhou Yu hurriedly invited the man in.

"Protector, sir, please come in."

Zhao Wu walked in. After the two sat down, Zhao Wu spoke:

"How is it?"

"Have you gotten a little familiar with this place?"

Zhou Yu nodded.

"I had some interactions with people here yesterday and did indeed learn a few things."

Zhao Wu nodded.

"Good, since you already know, I won’t waste my breath."

"Since you are the first generation Plane Breaker and your background is clear, there’s nothing much to investigate."

"Based on your strength and your identity, the Elder Council of Fengyuan City has decided to appoint you as a ground-level squad leader."

"Ground-level squad leader?"

Zhou Yu was taken aback; this was exactly what Liu Daoming had predicted yesterday.

Zhao Wu smiled and nodded.

"That’s right!"

"I’ve already sent your identity information to Squad 189."

"Once you’re rested, go meet your team members. In the future, unless something special happens, tasks will be carried out in a squad format."

"However, there is one thing I must mention beforehand."

"Since you’ve become a squad leader, you’re obligated to protect your team members. Though if there’s a loss of members, the City Defense Team will replenish them for you, it takes some time."

"So, the fewer members you have, the less advantageous it is for you to carry out tasks."

"Poor task performance will eventually affect the settlement of your missions."

"I hope you understand this."

Zhao Wu looked at Zhou Yu meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu nodded solemnly.

"Thank you, protector, for your guidance. I will remember it."

Zhao Wu was very satisfied with Zhou Yu’s attitude.

"Very well."

"Also, this Phoenix Cry Pavilion is only a temporary place for you to stay."

"With your current identity and strength, you can apply for your own Spiritual Land at the Spirits Pavilion."

"According to the rules of Fengyuan City, as a newcomer, the city will give you half a month to rest. During this time, you should choose a Spiritual Land and get familiar with the city."

"After half a month, you will begin to carry out tasks."

"As for what specific tasks, someone will assign them to you then."

"Do you have any questions?"

Zhou Yu immediately shook his head and said:

"No, I don’t."

"Thank you, protector, for informing me."

Zhao Wu nodded, then stood up, looking at Zhou Yu, he said:

"Since I was the one who brought you in, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me."

After saying that, Zhao Wu turned and left.

Zhou Yu respectfully saw Zhao Wu out.

After sending Zhao Wu away, Zhou Yu also left Phoenix Cry Pavilion.

According to what Liu Daoming said yesterday, the conditions in the Spirits Pavilion area are much better than this Phoenix Cry Pavilion.

There, you can have your own Spiritual Land, so you don’t have to squeeze in here, although there is a barrier, there are still too many people around.

With a better choice available, there was no need for him to stay here.

When he first came to Phoenix Cry Pavilion, he had passed by the Spirits Pavilion, and the two places were not far apart, so Zhou Yu quickly found the Spirits Pavilion.

When he arrived at the Spirits Pavilion, Zhou Yu was in no hurry to go in.

He stood at the entrance watching for a while, in about half an hour, more than a dozen people entered the Spirits Pavilion.

Of course, many people also left during that time, but mostly, when they went in, they were smiling and confident, but when they left, most of them were somewhat dejected.

Seeing this scene, a strange look flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes.

Then, without hesitating any longer, he slipped directly inside.

The office of the Spirits Pavilion was a huge pavilion.

This pavilion appeared to be three or four stories high from the outside, but inside there was only one large hall.

At the moment, there were quite a few people in the hall.

Zhou Yu’s Divine Sense swept slightly and found that many people were in the Nascent Soul Realm, and of course, there were some in the Divinity Transformation Realm.

At this time, these people were all looking at a huge map in the center of the hall, many still looking worried.

Some hesitated repeatedly before approaching the elder beneath the map and handed over their Identity Token.

The elder casually checked the Identity Token, and then, after confirming the chosen area, waved his hand.

A spirit light flashed across the map, and after a moment, that piece of the area disappeared from the map.

Then, the elder handed the Identity Token back to the person, who took the token and left hurriedly.

Zhou Yu observed from the side, and soon enough, more than ten people finished selecting and left.

He basically understood the situation.

This huge map represented the range of Spiritual Land within the Spirits Pavilion.

And as long as one held an Identity Token, one could select a region as their own Spiritual Land.

Of course, it wasn’t free; some fees had to be paid.

But exactly how much to pay was unknown to others.

However, it was obvious that good areas were expensive, causing most people to show expressions of unwillingness yet helplessness.

After understanding, Zhou Yu began to study the map and soon chose a location on the map.

Then, when no one was in front of the elder, Zhou Yu walked over with big strides.

The elder said expressionlessly:

"Identity Token!"

Zhou Yu immediately handed over the Identity Token.

"Which area do you choose?"

Zhou Yu pointed to a spot in the corner of the map.

Seeing the location Zhou Yu selected, the elder frowned slightly, then glanced at Zhou Yu and said:

"The area you have chosen is called ’Little Qingshan’, located on the edge of a branch of the Spirit Vein. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power there is very poor, practically useless for cultivators in the Divinity Transformation Realm. Are you sure you want to choose this place?"

Zhou Yu smiled wryly.

"Senior, I’m quite short of funds, I can’t afford better places, so I can only choose this one."

The elder cast a glance at Zhou Yu, saying no more.

"Five hundred Spirit Stones."

It seemed this piece of Spiritual Land was indeed very low-quality, fifty years of use time for just five hundred Spirit Stones, almost as good as giving it away.

Zhou Yu immediately touched his Storage Ring, took out five hundred Spirit Stones, and handed them to the elder.

The elder flicked his hand, and the Little Qingshan area quietly disappeared from the map.

Of course, no one paid attention to such an edge area.

So, no one noticed Zhou Yu’s choice either.

After making his selection, Zhou Yu planned to leave.

Just then, suddenly, there was a commotion behind him.

Everyone turned to look at a middle-aged burly man who had just walked in, their eyes full of respect.

One of them, who seemed familiar with him, smiled and asked.

"It’s Brother Wen, huh? I thought you already had a Spiritual Land?"

"Why are you here?"

The middle-aged man, called Brother Wen, said flatly:

"I am not very satisfied with my previous Spiritual Land, so I came to change it."

After saying that, he walked straight past Zhou Yu to the elder.

He respectfully said:

"Uncle Qiao, I didn’t expect it to be you here today."

"My master mentioned you just the other day."

The previously expressionless elder now showed a hint of a smile.

"Your old master never speaks kindly of me behind my back, probably cursing me again."

The middle-aged man laughed and said:

"Senior, you misunderstood. My master said he got two pots of good wine and wanted to invite you for a drink."

The elder waved dismissively.

"Stop with the nonsense."

"What’s the matter?"

The middle-aged man quickly smiled and said:

"Uncle Qiao, I have my eye on that area, please help me change it."

Saying this, the middle-aged man pointed to a corner on the map.

As luck would have it, it was precisely the area Zhou Yu had just chosen...
