"Hey cao before we head to the next sect prepare some food for the next leader, I don't want to be unprepared again" I spoke to him
"Yes sir!" Cao yelled as he went to the storage we had
'It's fairly empty but that's so be expected, it's only for emergencies' I thought as I awaited my disciple to come back
Looking around I could see the construction continuing on at a rapid pace
And then my disciple came with a rucksack on his back
"Let's go" I ordered as we left again
"Who are we recruiting this time?" I asked
"They are the Bear Fang sect. They rely heavily on their bodies to tank hits for them as they attack, all of them have a large physique" Cao said
"What makes them a good candidate?" I asked
"They hate how their leaders run things, They think they should use less strategy and more power. Their entire sect lives head on fights and never back down from one" He said
"However their thinking may be problematic…what do you think?" Cao asked
"They could be useful, all we need to do is play to their strengths. If we can recruit them then they would be a front line powerhouse" I said
"Yes master" Cao replied
After awile of running we came upon the front gates of the bear claw sect
Cao knocked on the larger then normal gate and waited
"What's your business" A seven foot man covered in muscles asked
"We came to make a deal" I said
"We don't care about nona that" The man said
"Trust me your leader will" Cao said
"Hm come in, if needed I can crush you like twig" The gatekeeper said
'So we went from fools to an idiot…' I thought as we entered the sect
Every member of the sect was carrying around logs and running in circles
"We're training legs" The gatekeeper said
"Very dedicated to training are we?" I asked
"Yes no breaks for us" The gatekeeper laughed heartily and we we led to a longhouse and guided inside
The man inside was a foot taller then the gatekeeper and even more muscular
They had long untamed hair going down to their waist
They were also training
Specifically squats with many, MANY weights on
"Sir some people came by to make a deal" The gatekeeper said
The man continued squatting
"Well what are you waiting for get on with it" the sect leader said
"Do you wish to fight?" I asked
"Is that an invitation?" The sect leader asked
"Kind of, to clarify I want you to become a vassal of mine" I responded
"What's a vassel?" He asked
"Someone who you fight along side with" I said
'Yea right, you fight for me'
"And what's the catch?" He asked
"You need to undergo a transformation that makes your even stronger then you are now" I said grinning
"I don't train internal arts so it's useless to me" He said
"But don't underestimate me I can kick the ass of a qi solidification artist" he responded
"That's even better then" I said
"The transformation gets rid of your qi but strengthens your body by many times" I said
"No pain no gain, I would rather work for that strength" The sect leader said
"But the process does have pain, a lot of it. And that leads to a lot of strength" I said
"Hmm" The sect leader stopped squatting for once and looked at me
"Alright"
