At the start of establishing StarNet, Long Chen had thought about how to manage it.
He wasn't the caretaker of these members, nor would he cover everything for them.
StarNet wasn't a place to simply distribute benefits. If you wanted to gain any benefits, you had to pay the corresponding price.
Mutual benefit and joint growth.
This was the fundamental meaning behind creating StarNet.
This time, the hunting mission was issued partly to increase cohesion among StarNet members, but naturally, it was also to inform them that if they wanted to become stronger, they would have to fight for it themselves!
However, hard work doesn't come without rewards. The trading points earned from hunting fierce beasts are quite generous.
Additionally, the beast meat is also a good resource, whether consumed by the individual or recycled—it's a valuable harvest.
With items and resources in the trading system far superior to those in the outside world, few could resist the temptation.
Where there are benefits, there must naturally be rules and restrictions.
There were only a few rules in StarNet in the early days.
[StarNet members are not allowed to harm each other. Violators will be eliminated.]
[When forming a team, contribution will be comprehensively evaluated by StarNet, and rewards will be distributed according to the contribution.]
[Do not disclose StarNet to others without permission.]
Now, over time, the rules had gradually improved.
Clearly, under the constraints of these rules, StarNet members were natural allies to each other.
At the very least, you didn't have to worry about the other party doing anything harmful to you.
After all, they understood the power of StarNet, and no one dared to test it!
Even the lighter punishment, permanent exclusion from the exchange system, was something none of them could afford.
As for elimination, it was something people didn't even dare to consider.
There are interests and rules.
Under these circumstances, the StarNet members quickly formed several teams at this time.
The teams were composed of warriors, mostly consisting of fighters close to breaking through to the Acquired Realm.
Those whose energy values hadn't reached the required level wouldn't need many resources at this time.
The hunting teams quickly mobilized, as if afraid they wouldn't have the chance in the future, gathering swiftly.
At the same time.
Long Chen finished a set of punches, as fluid as flowing water, completing his daily training.
Though he could grow rapidly without training, continuous practice could be seen as a way to control this power.
Thanks to the continuous feedback from StarNet, Long Chen's strength continued to steadily improve.
Although he didn't know the exact figures, Long Chen could be sure that he was very strong!
Only one verification process remained.
Previously, Long Chen didn't have much time for himself, as he had been busy perfecting StarNet.
Now that he was free, he had some spare time.
Anyway, he didn't need to cultivate himself or require any resources. Time was the most important thing.
But before that, there was something else that needed to be done.
"Now that the trading system and mission system are in place, and everyone fully understands their usage."
"The initial members are on track, so…"
"It's time to expand!"
At this thought, a smile appeared at the corner of Long Chen's mouth.
Previously, the task of recruiting people into StarNet was done randomly and expanded slowly.
The main reason was that he had not yet been able to create a complete process.
Just like when people first entered StarNet, they were often confused and knew nothing.
Now the process had become clearer.
Link to StarNet – Complete missions – Earn rewards – Buy resources – Become stronger quickly.
With guidance from the older members, the speed of integration for new members would be much faster.
Furthermore, restrictions could also be eased, allowing people at the Basic Absorption Realm to participate.
With the allure of Star Arts and resources, it wouldn't be difficult to switch their cultivation system.
For now, there was no need to reveal StarNet to the public until it had grown enough.
However, Long Chen believed it wouldn't be long before StarNet became so massive that there would be no need to hide.
Today, the task of expanding StarNet's membership was issued once again.
Suddenly, the eyes of those members who weren't strong enough to participate in the hunting mission lit up, as if they had found a treasure.
Someone had already tasted the sweetness before, and it was clear what this task entailed.
The mission's content was simple. By using your own methods, you could identify individuals who could be recognized by StarNet and gain their approval.
Be quick!
This was an easy five trading points, without shedding a drop of blood!
Without hesitation, they immediately started promoting to the targets they had already identified.
In a short period of time, the StarNet members who already understood the importance of trading points made Long Chen feel the meaning of frenzy once again.
A stream of souls continuously connected to the main node, joining in.
At the moment the connection was successful, most people were essentially in a state of confusion.
But it wouldn't take long before they integrated into StarNet under the guidance of the older members.
A new cultivation system, Star Arts, assisted training, Accelerated Cultivation Elixir…
For warriors, this place was simply heaven!
Each new member would feel an overwhelming sense of emotion, followed by a touch of sadness.
Naturally, what they were concerned about was how to earn money.
When they saw the recruitment mission in the task system, they often felt a pang of regret.
Regret for not being able to get to this place earlier.
Today, StarNet's membership had reached 3,679.
Compared to the early stages, the number and average strength had significantly increased.
The computing power had also greatly increased!
"In this way, while we deduce the follow-up realms of the cultivation system, we can even consider developing other functions…"
"But no need to rush, let's stabilize first."
After pondering for a while, Long Chen turned his gaze toward the wilderness.
Through the field of view provided by StarNet, he could clearly sense that many teams were fully equipped.
For them, this was a test.
After all, most of the people here had been training for a long time but hadn't had many real combat opportunities.
Without combat, they were too weak!
Non-warriors were not allowed to go into the wild alone, and even warriors couldn't guarantee their safety.
Most people's memories of fierce beasts were stuck in mere stories.
Besides, this was the first time everyone was cooperating, making them feel even more tense.
But despite the nerves, no one backed down.
Warriors do not retreat!
