There was no way that all the rewards would be given to the elite groups just because they performed well. Lu Li had no intentions from the beginning to distribute all 1000 sets. In his way of thinking, only a hungry dog knew how to bite. If he fed his members too well, they would lose their fangs.
What he considered the most was this first piece of land.
The bait had to be temping, so tempting that it would have the other guild members fighting hard for it. Those who had obtained houses were a good example to show that as long as the members performed well, they would still have an opportunity to be granted a house in the future.
At this point, their Stronghold was only a basic one. As it continued to level up, they would be able to expand the land and have more civilians inside.
