Chapter 616: Chapter 617: The Prospective Apprentice!

’Ding!’

System: To upgrade to level eight guild, the total gold coins required are: 3.2 million gold coins; Strategic resources required: Timber: 100,000, Ore: 100,000, Quicksilver: 80,000, Sulfur: 50,000, Crystal: 50,000, Gemstones: 30,000!

It can be seen that the gold and strategic resources required to upgrade to a level eight guild have qualitatively increased. These requirements are a heavy burden for most guild leaders, especially those of the level seven guilds. Some might even see it as an astronomical figure.

Don’t think that just because you’ve completed the level eight guild upgrade task, you’re truly upgraded. There’s still a major hurdle to overcome!

But to Chu You, this is not an issue. After taking a quick glance at his remaining strategic resources, he quickly decided to proceed, accompanied by the sound of deducted gold coins.

Then... the guild was upgraded, from the current level seven guild to a level eight guild.

System: Your guild’s maximum member limit has increased by: 40,000 members! Your total guild member limit is: 70,000 members!

When upgraded to a level eight guild, that means the blue power territory of the ’Immortal’ guild has further expanded. As long as it’s within the blue territory, Chu You can construct guild buildings within it.

If someone were observing from the outside, they would notice that the structure of the Taoist Palace has undergone a big change. The exterior even carries a layer of mysterious Taoist aura, giving off an impression that it has existed for an extremely long time.

Just as Chu You upgraded the guild to level eight, the spies who had been keeping a close eye on the ’Immortal’ guild noticed immediately. They promptly reported the information to their superiors.

In no time, this news spread like wildfire.

Night Ghost’s guild has been upgraded to level eight, suggesting that Night Ghost could potentially become a mentor. So, who will be his first disciple? Many powers and players are paying close attention to this, because just recently, the ’Immortal’ guild of Night Ghost has added one member, bringing the total to three. This indicates that Night Ghost has begun to recruit people.

This person has not been revealed yet but, if Night Ghost becomes a mentor and guides him to level up, the player’s level might skyrocket within a short period, potentially being Night Ghost’s representative.

Night Ghost’s level is 74. As a mentor, he can take any level disciple, including the second-ranked Japanese player, Bietianshen Yuban, who is level 38. If both were to join the same guild, Night Ghost would qualify to be his mentor.

Once someone becomes Night Ghost’s disciple, their level will significantly increase within a short period. And since they’re Night Ghost’s disciple, he will surely take care of their equipment and attributes. If this becomes a reality, there will be another Player God!

At this moment, on one level, Night Ghost’s unseen power has been further enhanced due to the factor of becoming a guild mentor! For his fans, this man has become even more mythical and attractive.

Upon opening the guild building interface, it can be seen that three new functional buildings have been unlocked: Guild Mentor Building, Guild Eye of Arrays, and Guild Siege Equipment Manufacturing Building.

The Guild Siege Equipment Manufacturing Building, as the name suggests, can produce powerful siege equipment. In the past, players had to purchase siege equipment from trading groups, but now, after upgrading to a level eight guild, they can produce them, eliminating the need for expensive purchases.

However, manufacturing siege equipment requires various special materials. The level of the building and the related guild skills in the guild skill tree determine the variety and advanced level of the siege equipment!

Guild Eye of Arrays, in simple terms, is the Mountain Protection Array! At the initial level, it can increase the attribute values of the guild members in the guild’s influence range, resist incoming enemies, and weaken the attributes of attacking enemies; at the middle level, on top of the initial level function, the Eye of Arrays has a range attack within the guild’s influence. Once an enemy enters the guild’s influence range, the Eye of Arrays will launch an attack every 10 seconds!

The advanced function, which inherits the initial and middle-level functions, can generate a barrier. This barrier is not similar to the fortress barrier; this can be broken, but requires significant power. Otherwise, the enemy cannot enter.

Of course, there’s also the ultimate function, but we’ll talk about it later! As the level of the Eye of Arrays and the related skill level of the guild skill tree determine which level of function the Eye of Arrays possesses and how powerful it is, etc.

Last but not least, there’s the critical Guild Mentor Building.

After Chu You constructed and upgraded these three newly unlocked buildings, he proceeded to upgrade these buildings!

The construction cost of these three buildings alone is 100,000 gold coins!

Level eight guilds can upgrade every building to the eighth level, which is the current highest level, on the condition that the guild leader has sufficient money and resources. The upgrade of a building’s level brings about an enhancement and diversification of its functionality.

A total of more than 3 million gold coins and a massive amount of strategic resources were spent. Now all the buildings in the City Above the Clouds are at level eight, the current highest level!

Well, the God of Wealth’s gold coins have dropped from 602 million to 595 million gold coins!

Now, the Guild Mentor Building is also a level eight building.

"Whew..." Chu You released a sigh, it seemed to not have been easy.

"Zero, do you know what’s the most important part of being a level eight guild?"

"What is it?" Dantai Jingning had been quietly observing Chu You during the whole process, noticing some striking similarities to the real-life Chu You.

"It’s because I can now be your mentor, enter a master-disciple relationship. I asked you to wait here precisely to prevent you from leveling up randomly."

"Stubborn, be my disciple, you will be the first," Chu You said to Dantai Jingning who was donned in a mysterious robe, smiling gently.

"Young Master, what’s the function of the master-disciple relationship?" It seems quite natural for Dantai Jingning to call him by his new title, and that hint of inexplicable joy in her tone is hard to miss.

Once Dantai Jingning overlays the image of the Young Master with Chu You, and further sees the similarity between Night Ghost’s actions and Chu You’s, it doesn’t feel out of sync at all for her at this moment.

From her perspective, Chu You is indeed a true nobleman, with an esteemed background, and their relationship is more like ’master and servant’, making everything she does natural and straightforward.
