74: Five people join the team, bold ideas

“Oh, right, I still need beer.”

Just as he was fantasizing, Liu Yang suddenly snapped back to reality.

Because he remembered he was missing one important thing—beer.

So he couldn't wait and immediately ran into the villa.

Back in the villa's main hall, Liu Yang took off his clothes and lay down on the rattan chair, swaying back and forth, enjoying himself immensely.

Then he took out some strawberries and arranged them on a plate.

Next, he took out the remaining stone armor explosive ape meat.

Only then did he begin searching the Auction House for brewing recipes.

Pure draft beer brewing recipe.

Wheat beer brewing recipe.

Draft beer brewing recipe.

Refreshing beer brewing recipe.

Stout brewing recipe.

Fruit wine brewing recipe.

Huadiao wine brewing recipe.

As soon as he searched.

All sorts of brewing recipes popped up, with prices so low they were outrageous.

It made sense when he thought about it.

Most people now had trouble with food and drink; who could be so extravagant as to brew alcohol with food?

Perhaps Liu Yang was the only one.

One moment he'd exchange bread for a recipe, the next steamed buns for another.

Before long, Liu Yang had bought many copies of each type of recipe.

Then he used each recipe one by one.

After that, Liu Yang discovered that brewing beer required malt, hops, and other ingredients.

He returned to the Auction House and entered keywords to search.

Malt wasn't for sale, so he settled for searching for wheat, but there was none either.

“Well, wheat is food after all, so it's normal that there's none.”

“Forget it, I'll deal with it when I have a chance.”

“So much time has passed now, I guess everyone must be done with their tasks!”

He stuffed the last piece of stone armor explosive ape meat into his mouth.

You have fully consumed a piece of stone armor explosive ape meat. Constitution +1.

“Finally finished eating.”

Liu Yang sighed, then began to get down to business.

He had been under the bad luck buff before, so he hadn't dared to eat, fearing he would choke to death.

Entering the chat channel, Liu Yang first contacted Shi Yufei.

“Yufei, I've created a small team. Do you want to join?”

Shi Yufei replied instantly: “Yes, of course, I've been waiting for your invitation.”

“That's a great honor, but I have to make it clear to you first: once you join the team, you can't leave on your own, but I have the right to kick you out. Also, when participating in team activities after joining, the earnings will be distributed by the captain.”

“It's fine, I don't care. It doesn't matter if you take everything. Also, I want my former teammate to join too, is that okay?”

“The one you mentioned last time, the one you gave a skill to?”

“Yes.”

Hearing Shi Yufei's confirmation, Liu Yang was ecstatic.

This was practically a buy-one-get-one-free deal.

And she was a Transcendent with an exclusive profession skill, so her strength was definitely beyond question.

“Welcome, welcome, but you have to make it clear to her. I don't want to trick people into joining and then have them resent me.”

“Okay, no problem, but how do I invite her?”

“Send me her ID card, I'll add her as a friend, and then I can send an invitation from the friend list.”

“Okay, that's it then. See you tomorrow.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow.”

Shi Yufei has recommended a friend to you. Would you like to add her?

“Add.”

Thus, a young lady appeared on Liu Yang's friend list.

He then sent her an invitation to join the team.

Shi Yufei.

Your friend Liu Yang has sent an invitation. Do you agree to join the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team?

“Yes.”

Congratulations on joining the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team. Please check the relevant rules yourself.

Xia Mo.

“Choked, two professionals joined the team, awesome.”

After his excitement, Liu Yang frowned again.

“But should I invite the Guan Family Three Sisters? Being too weak won't do.”

He could only invite 9 members, and he didn't know what the activity content was, so the stronger the team members, the better.

At such a crucial moment, Liu Yang dared not be vague.

“However.”

Thinking of the three sisters' life-saving grace, he felt it was better to ask them directly.

As the saying goes, a scholar who has been away for three days should be looked at with new eyes.

Perhaps they had encountered some fortuitous encounter and their strength had greatly increased!

He acted on the thought; there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Liu Yang immediately contacted the eldest of the Guan Family Three Sisters.

“Frost Skill, are you free now?”

“Just finished eating, what's up?”

“I've created a small team and want to invite you three sisters to join. Team activities should yield good rewards, but they'll probably be quite dangerous, and I'm not sure of your strength, so…”

“Oh, you're worried about our strength, right? Don't worry, we're all level ten, and we all have unique skills.”

“Emmmmm…”

Liu Yang looked at his own level on the status page, a small five.

But those girls… they were all level ten!

It was confirmed; they definitely had a fortuitous encounter.

Curious, Liu Yang asked:

“What are your professions?”

“Professions? Our situation is special; we can't transfer professions, but our strength is not at all inferior.”

Liu Yang was puzzled but didn't press further; everyone had their secrets.

“Alright then, I was going to say if any of you hadn't transferred professions, I just happened to have an extra profession transfer item. It seems I'll have to trade it for something else.”

“Hmm, it's fine, thank you.”

“But before you join the team, I need to make it clear: once you join, you cannot withdraw on your own, but I have the right to kick members out of the team.

Furthermore, in team activities, all earnings will be distributed by me.”

“It's fine, we trust you.”

“Good, then I'll send you the invitations. I hope you won't regret it.”

Guan Ning霜.

Your friend Liu Yang has sent an invitation. Do you agree to join the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team?

“Yes.”

Congratulations on joining the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team. Please check the relevant rules yourself.

Guan Ning霜 has joined the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team.

Guan Ningyan has joined the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team.

Guan Ningxiu has joined the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Team.

Seeing the three sisters join, Liu Yang fell into contemplation.

“Five people have joined now; there are still four spots left. Where can I find four more people?”

After much thought, a flash of inspiration struck Liu Yang, and a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.

“I remember seeing someone selling information at the Auction House, so can I also sell team spots?”

“And I can't use the ice and fire book myself. Perhaps I can hold an auction for it; maybe I can get some good items!”

At this thought, Liu Yang became excited.

If it worked, not only would he charge an entry fee, but he could also make people act as fighters, a completely profitable business.

As for whether people would join, putting aside the attribute rewards from the leaderboard, they could also get a boost from his own partial strength. This temptation…

He acted on the thought; Liu Yang immediately began to move.
