The Great Thief - Chapter 1334

Chapter 1334: 1334

After Short Road, there were a few more interviewees . Although they still had potential, none of them had as much as Short Road .

Lu Li was already extremely happy with the first week of the training camp . He brought 14 trainees to complete the introductory ceremony . The youngest was 11 years old, meaning that he would have just started junior high school . The oldest was Short Road, who was 20 . If he was a student, he would have been in university .

Short Road was already quite skilled . With a little more training, he would be able to enter a minor competition .

The younger ones on the other hand were nowhere near good enough to enter competitions unless they trained for another 3-5 years . This was the biggest risk and investment of the training camp, as they could not see the results in the short-term .

Some organisations didn’t even have training camps .

For example, the Gangnam Royals claimed that they invested millions into their camp, but this was all fake . The purpose of saying this was to receive more money from the investors . Now that they have fallen far below the other guilds, the main players requested to transfer . Because of this, they were unable to bring out replacements .

In terms of preparation, Glory Capital were the best . Even if their main players all left, they still could recover a major part of their team in a short period of time .

“Perhaps everyone already knows me . We met before . Allow me to introduce myself again . I am Lu Li, one of the founders of Ruling Sword . I did not attend university…”

“You didn’t attend high school either, did you?” Wandering added .

Lu Li paused for a bit, then continued to say, “I didn’t attend high school or junior high school . I only attended a few days of primary school…”

“Wow…” Most of them were clearly excited .

“However, I read a lot . I used all of my spare time to read . Don’t think that school is useless . I envy you guys . It’s not that I didn’t want to study, but that I had no money to . In the future, the grading in the camp will be extremely strict . Furthermore, the grades that you get in school will determine 50% of your total grade . ”

“…”

A few of them gasped in surprise . Some were academically capable, so they had no problem, but the others were not, so they felt quite disappointed . They thought that they wouldn’t need to study any more after joining the training camp .

“I will let you know of the punishments shortly . Don’t think for a second that I’m joking . I won’t hesitate when it comes to sending people home,” Lu Li said with a cold and cruel voice . His expression immediately lightened as he continued, “Of course, if you guys do well, then I will do my best to accommodate your needs, such as allowances . If you guys want to compete, then I will do what I can do fulfil your requests . ”

In Dawn, under-16-year-old players were restricted from choosing combat-classes .

However, clubs were allowed to apply for a permit for their competing members, which when granted, would allow the player to bypass the restriction . This was rare for many clubs however, as many decided to focus on the basics .

Lu Li himself came from the streets, which meant that his ideas and views were a little more unorthodox . Therefore, he was willing to send primary schoolers into the battlefield .

After hearing Lu Li speak for a few minutes, these kids were now members of Ruling Sword .

Short Road went to the bank to deal with the money that Lu Li promised him, then visited the hospital that Lu Li mentioned previously . As for the rest of the members, they were welcomed into the elite squads .

A few hundred people decided to celebrate that night .

The little ones went crazy, but their parents were okay with it . Firstly, this was because Lu Li had high expectations of their studies, and secondly, the environment was good .

A university was right next to the organisation, and there were multiple high schools in the area as well .

It was hard to imagine that an organisation like Ruling Sword, with no external funds, was able to be become what it was today .

The accommodation was all apartments . Two people would live in one apartment which was quite spacious .

The saddest thing was that the parents of these players weren’t permitted to stay with them, since they were expected to be independent . However, they were permitted to go home for a month in total every year . They could choose to use it together or split up the time . If they exceeded the limit of a month, then their grade points would be reduced as a result .

Lu Li required these kids to be independent as soon as possible .

His values and personality had been shaped by his living conditions while growing up . It was because of his background that he was able to go from rags to riches, as well as his personality and determination to forge onwards and constantly improve . This was because he did not want to let the poverty consume him again .

After the creation of the training camp, a few people in the inner circle of Ruling Sword realised Lu Li’s ambition .

Soon after, everyone began to recruit new members . Glory Capital also recruited a lot of potential players . Under normal conditions, they only recruited once a year, but this time, it seemed like they were afraid that Ruling Sword had taken all the players with strong potential away .

Furthermore, someone even tried to find out Ruling Sword’s future plans to recruit .

Lu Li smiled, though bitterly . After all, Ruling Sword already spent a great amount of money on this round of recruiting alone . If he chose to recruit multiple times during the year, the other departments of the organisation wouldn’t even need to lift a finger and Ruling Sword would definitely be bankrupt .

As he returned to the game, Lu Li was summoned to his mentor’s side .

Water Fairy was also summoned . When Lu Li rushed to where Garona was, he saw that Water Fairy and Garona was sitting closely together, as if they were holding hands .

“…I don’t know what it is, but I thought that it wouldn’t get worse, so I kept going until I met Gul’dan . Don’t get me wrong – he’s still utterly evil, but he had his own warmth, you know?”

Lu Li thought that this was absurd . Throughout the entire continent of Azeroth, including Gul’dan’s own race, no one saw any form of kindness or warmth from him .

He was one of the most prominent characters in the history of Dawn .  He was the founder of the Shadow Council and was the most hated traitor of the Horde . He was one of the main characters behind the troubles that Azeroth had faced . At the same time, it was he who sold the Horde out to the Scourge and demonic forces .

“We must strive towards creating a glorious path full of darkness!”

These were his words . Lu Li could not imagine any form of warmth from hi, unless it was because he had saved a little girl back then? However, Lu Li didn’t want to refute Garona’s words . After all, Garona had been through her own share of unfortunate events in life .

“Ah, you’re here . How are you going with controlling poison?” Garona asked .

“I’ve been a little lazy lately, so I haven’t improved that much . ”

Lu Li’s expression was one of guilt . As he spoke, he took out a bottle that was filled with light red fluid .

Garona took it, opened the lid, and took a whiff .

It was a rich and heavy fragrance, with a hint of sweetness . Garona couldn’t stand this smell, so she distanced herself from the bottle .
