Unfortunately, the growth potential of fire crows is not high. Their strength is generally around level 2 to 3, with only a very few able to break through to level 4, and those that can enter level 5 are extremely rare. Out of millions of fire crows, only a handful have reached level 5.
Correspondingly, the number of dragons recruited from the Dragon Palace has been slow to increase, grow, and reproduce... The total number of the four dragon clans has only just exceeded a thousand over the years, and there are only a few dozen dragon eggs waiting to be hatched in the Dragon Palace.
As a result, countless dragon-blooded creatures have multiplied across the entire primordial planet. Fortunately, Ye Chen promptly restricted the dragons' movement, strictly forbidding them from sowing seeds in Xiniu Hezhou and prohibiting them from encountering those western dragons. This prevented the creation of hybrid offspring resulting from the combination of various elements.
However, Ye Chen estimated that this period would not last long. With the increase in the number of both sides and the exchange between the two species, the appearance of hybrids was only a matter of time. In comparison, he was also a little curious about what the hybrids of the dragon race would be like.
However, before that happens, we should still try to stop it. Early relationships are never right! What are all the single people supposed to do?
Ten years have passed, and Ye Chen has finally emerged from the library of the Elf Royal Academy. He has witnessed all the changes in the territory over the past ten years. Although he may seem to have done nothing and ignored everything, every major policy that followed has been implemented through his hands.
At the same time, he was very satisfied with the several Awakened Ones he had recruited. Not to mention Xia Qingyi's financial management skills, the others also performed very well in their respective positions.
Whether it's Yu Hongzhe who improves the weather, Wen Cheng who is engaged in education, or Ding Siyin who has been cultivating exotic beasts... everyone is working hard for the development of the territory. It can be said that the healthy development of the entire Xiniu Hezhou and even the Primordial Star is inseparable from the efforts of these people.
As a lord, Ye Chen's reward to them was an increase in strength.
Over the course of ten years, almost all the Awakened Ones have reached the peak of Tier 3 and are ready to break through to Tier 4 at any time. It is conservatively estimated that everyone will reach around Tier 5 by the time they leave the Time Cave. This rate of improvement makes Tao Ping extremely envious.
It's important to understand that they are not a nest-dwelling clan. Their growth in strength must follow a gradual process. The transition from the third to the fourth tier is a fundamental change in their life essence, and everyone needs a long and painstaking process to achieve it.
It wasn't just them; the new generation in Xiniu Hezhou was the same. Harold and the others had to put in a lot of effort to surpass the fourth rank. Many people in the Elf Royal Academy could only graduate at the peak of the third rank. Being able to graduate was an honor.
Tao Ping calculated that if he included the time spent in the Time Cave, it took him at least a hundred years to reach the fifth rank. This was only because the previous lord treated him very well, but compared to Ye Chen's territory, this treatment was just a drop in the ocean.
Most importantly, the Sutra Repository of Tianzhu Mountain contains a large number of cultivation books that Tao Ping has never seen before, and these cultivation books are also of great help to his cultivation improvement.
Therefore, even though no medicinal herbs he could use had been cultivated on the Primordial Star in recent years, his strength continued to steadily improve. This improvement made him very happy, and at the same time, he was shocked by Ye Chen's foundation.
"Fatty and I are going to leave the Cavern of Time for a while. If we leave it in the territory, it will probably take two or three years. During this time, the territory will be in your hands!" Ye Chen said to his head butler, Ye Xi, when he returned to the library.
"My lord, shouldn't I come along?" Ye Xi asked, taken aback.
Now, she has reached the peak of the 5th tier, and dealing with 6th tier enemies is a piece of cake for her. If Ye Chen wants to leave the territory, he will naturally need her protection.
"No! You are all in a period of rapid growth in strength. Two or three years is enough time for your strength to increase significantly. It's better not to waste it. This time I will take Tao Ping and my sister with me. He is a sixth-level expert and my sister is a fourth-level expert. There will be no problem!" Ye Chen shook his head and said.
Although ten years have passed, the stronger the clan, the slower its growth. Ye Xi and the others are still in a period of rapid growth in strength, and two or three years is not a short time.
In contrast, awakened individuals like Tao Ping don't care. It's only a year or two. Staying too comfortable in their territory for too long will actually hinder their strength improvement.
"Then let's take Ye Zhen out with us. It's really worrying to leave her without any of her clansmen!" Ye Xi advised again.
Ye Chen thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Unlike Ye Xi, Ye Zhen's combat ability with the E's Beast is not strong. So, whether she grows faster or slower doesn't make a big difference. Moreover, Ye Zhen has already reached the peak of the 4th tier. Her subsequent growth will be only a year or two behind, so taking her out won't be a problem.
"Alright, I'll leave the territory to you. If you're unsure about anything, consult with Xia Qingyi and Yu Hongzhe. They have a wealth of experience and knowledge in management, construction, and finance!" Ye Chen said, and Ye Xi nodded to indicate that she understood.
After arranging everything, Ye Chen boarded a special starship and left the trial space along with this year's new lord.
"The auction starts tomorrow, we'd better hurry!" Sitting in the starship, the fat man said to Ye Chen beside him.
"Don't worry, since Elder Qin told us to come out today, there shouldn't be any major problems!" Ye Chen said helplessly.
They came out this time because Elder Qin arranged for someone to go in and deliver a message to them, saying that the official was going to hold an auction in the Blue Star plane, mainly featuring items suitable for new lords, and of course, consignment sales were also possible.
This auction was organized by the government, with the support of various forces and the arrangement of Wanwulou. Due to the relatively low prices and the presence of many rare items, only this year's new lords can participate in this auction. All bidders entering the auction will have their identities verified.
The grand auction naturally attracted many people back to the Blue Star plane. The number of people entering the Cavern of Time in the past two years shows that many new lords have gathered in the Blue Star plane.
After leaving the Cavern of Time and boarding a starship, the group discovered during their interstellar travel that the territories belonging to the new lords had increased considerably, and were no longer as rare as when they had first returned.
