194: Mining League, 2000-person chat channel!

“What? You mean, the team Ye Ze is in cleared ten stages in one day?!”

Hearing the report from a teammate beside him, Qin Xuan was stunned, his tone a little disbelieving.

He quickly opened the Trial Ranking, his gaze quickly searching downwards, finally stopping at—

**32nd Place: Tenth Stage, Jiang Ze Squad (Magic Martial Arts Academy)**

(Team Members: Ye Ze, Jiang Ziqing, Mu Bai, Wu Chen, Xu Siya.)

“They've already rushed to 32nd place…” Qin Xuan muttered to himself, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

“Even if the monster information has been leaked, this speed is too fast.”

“And it's a team formed by five Freshman students.”

“No wonder that kid refused the Captain's invitation. It seems he does have some strength.”

Several teammates were also discussing.

“This guy is indeed a bit unexpected.”

Qin Xuan took a deep breath, calming his surprised emotions.

“However, 32nd place is still a long way from the top five.”

“I'm looking forward to seeing if he can truly create a miracle.”

...

...

“Clearing ten stages in one day and entering the top fifty… No wonder he refused the invitations from all the teams.”

In the back mountain of the Magic Martial Arts Academy, a hint of surprise flashed in Mo Tiancheng's eyes.

“I expected this kid to refuse the invitation, but I didn't expect him to be able to push through ten stages in one day.”

Lu Yun smiled and shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of approval.

Mo Tiancheng picked up his teacup and took a light sip, “It's truly surprising. Then, do you think he can rush into the top five?”

“Aren't you a Heaven's Secret Master? Why don't you calculate whether he can enter the top five?” Lu Yun glanced at him and said as a matter of course.

Mo Tiancheng sighed, “It's precisely because the calculated result surprised me a bit that I came to ask for your opinion…”

...

After continuously clearing ten stages, Ye Ze's physical strength and peculiar energy could still support him, but the condition of the other teammates was not optimistic, especially Xu Siya.

As the only Pastor in the team, she had been releasing buff blessing skills for her teammates, and her peculiar energy had long been exhausted.

Although peculiar energy recovery potions could quickly replenish peculiar energy, the Spirit consumed by releasing blessings was not so easy to recover.

Therefore, after successfully breaking through the tenth stage, they did not choose to continue.

Ye Ze was not in a hurry. There were still several days until the end of the Corpse Fiend Dungeon, and the first place had only cleared seven more stages.

After training in the skill practice room as usual, on the way back, Ye Ze summoned the student interface and clicked on the 『Dungeon Management』 option—

“The efficiency is quite high. The hole in the East City wall has been repaired, and the hole in the North City wall is almost done.” A smile appeared on Ye Ze's face, satisfied with the progress of the Manor's repair.

With a thought, a clear image of Lester Grand Manor appeared in his mind.

All projects were proceeding in an orderly manner:

On the North City wall, 120 Corpse Demon Workers were busy piling up bloodstone blocks, repairing the collapsed section.

Corpse Demon Workers were immensely strong, carrying huge rocks as if they were flying, making them the best labor for building walls.

In the bloodstone ore vein cave, over a hundred students were working hard to mine, their sweat pouring down.

The mining tools they held were purchased at their own expense, and they were highly efficient, easily digging out the ore.

Their enthusiasm for work was even higher than that of the Corpse Demon Workers, after all, the more they dug, the more rewards they got.

—Regarding the students' accommodation.

The Ghoul Doctor had already prepared dormitories within the Manor.

Students could rest whenever they were tired,

If a student wanted to return to the Academy, they could apply to the Ghoul Doctor, who would then notify Ye Ze through mental contact,

Or directly send a message to Ye Ze through the chat channel to apply. Ye Ze would open the teleportation entrance in time to let them leave.

In addition, Ye Ze decided to open the teleportation entrance punctually at 6:00 PM every day, lasting for one hour.

Students who needed to could freely travel between the Manor and the Academy during this time period.

—Regarding mining progress

As of now,

The work harvest of over a hundred students was 2000 tons of bloodstone. On average, each person could dig about 20 tons per day.

According to the 5% sharing ratio, these over 100 students could get an average of 1 ton of bloodstone per person per day.

Calculating at a value of 1000 points per ton of bloodstone, a student could earn 1000 points in one day! (Note 1)

In contrast, a bounty mission was only worth over 1000 points, and it was difficult to complete.

And mining could easily earn the same points, which made the students work even harder.

“Hiss—1000 points a day, a 5% reward share is still a bit high.” Ye Ze thought with a slight heartache.

However, he also knew very well that the Manor was currently short of manpower and could only rely on these students for the time being.

When enough Corpse Demon Workers were produced, he would optimize them to reduce costs… The dark-hearted Manor Lord Ye Ze thought to himself…

...

At 6:00 PM in the afternoon, it was time to open the teleportation entrance.

He clicked on the task release interface,

And found that over two hundred more students had accepted the mining task and applied to be teleported to Lester Grand Manor.

Ye Ze pulled these new students into the 【Mining Alliance】 chat channel.

The 『Create Chat Channel』 function was one of the permissions he unlocked after becoming a Corpse Fiend Dungeon Lord.

According to the number of people, chat channels were divided into several tiers:

- 100-person channel: 200 points

- 500-person channel: 1000 points

- 1000-person channel: 2000 points

- 2000-person channel: 4000 points

Considering that the maintenance of the Manor, defense against monster invasions, etc., might require recruiting a large number of personnel in the future,

Ye Ze waved his hand and directly spent 4000 points to create the highest-tier 2000-person chat channel.

【Notification: You have added student Song Shuchang, student Peng Qiurou, student Zhao Shufen… to the 『Mining Alliance』 chat channel.】

【Student Peng Qiurou】: “Junior Brother Ye Ze has finally appeared!”

【Student Zhao Shufen】: “Wow, a large group of 2000 people. The group owner is rich!”

【Student Song Shuchang】: “With a mine at home, how can he not be rich? Speaking of which, when will student Ye Ze open the vortex entrance? I can't wait to dig for points (✧∇✧)… No, I mean contribute to the construction of the Manor. @Student Ye Ze.”

【Miner Lu Renjia】: “Wow, how did so many people suddenly join the group? Welcome, welcome!”

【Student Song Shuchang】: “@Miner Lu Renjia, how many tons of bloodstone did you dig today? How much did you get in share?”

【Miner Lu Renjia】: “Not much, just about 30 tons, the share is 1.5 tons (＾ｖ＾)”

【Student Song Shuchang】: “1.5 tons! That's 1500 points! 1500 points a day!”

【Student Song Shuchang】: “@Student Ye Ze, let me in quickly! To dig for minerals! My whole body is burning with enthusiasm for mining!!”

The group was lively, and everyone's enthusiasm was high.

Ye Ze smiled and sent an announcement:

——【Announcement: @All Members, the teleportation entrance will be opened at the teleportation plaza and will last for one hour. All members can travel between the school and the Manor during this time period.】
