Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1318: Chapter 430: Return from Seclusion, Hairpin Ceremony and Blunders, Great Xia’s Splendor and the Eve of an Explosion (Part 5)

“The martial arts competition is not just about enhancing the integration of young people from the Three Towns. As early as the preliminary and semi-final stages of the Hongmen competition, I had already organized the Hunting Team of the Great Xia to select team members, especially focusing on those young people from outside towns. These young people joining the Hunting Team of the Great Xia basically become part of the Great Xia. Along with their relatives, integrating into the Great Xia is just a matter of time.”

Lin Kai, finally nearing the end of his report, enumerated all the benefits. After realizing he might have overdone it, he clasped his hands and chuckled,

“Of course, it’s not all benefits. Hosting this martial arts competition will cost at least thirty million taels of silver, which could be considered a downside…”

“What kind of downside is that!”

Xia Hong interrupted him directly, waving his hand, “Whether it’s silver or supplies, even if they pile up in the warehouse, they’re just a heap of dead objects. Only when spent can they truly serve their purpose.

This martial arts competition is organized very well. It should be held every year henceforth, and the standards should only get higher. If you organize the competition well, the camp’s revenue will only continue to rise.”

“Understood, My Lord!”

Receiving direct praise from Xia Hong, Lin Kai felt even more invigorated.

“Alright, what about the Hunting Department?”

The Hunting Department Director Luo Yuan immediately stepped forward, clasped his hands, and said:

“My Lord, currently, the Hunting Department oversees more than 50,000 hunting teams in total, including 1,822 advanced teams, over 10,000 intermediate teams, and nearly 40,000 low-level teams.

To balance the hunting and gathering efficiency at various resource points, the Hunting Department has evenly distributed these more than 50,000 hunting teams across 91 posts below. Because of the integration of the Three Towns, I have also allocated 20% of the hunting teams specifically to hunt in the Muyin and Jiangxia Towns, and this is expected to continue increasing in the future.

Additionally, since last year, the Hunting Department has started to organize specialized fishing and hunting teams, but fishing and hunting are more challenging, so up to now, we’ve only formed just over a hundred such teams. We will continue to improve in the future.”

From Xia Hong’s current perspective, the extremely cold environment of the Ice Abyss has destined hunting and fishing to be an eternal theme for humanity. The reason is simple: the food humans grow cannot replace Cold Beast meat’s position.

It’s a simple truth; a person cannot survive by just maintaining their vital signs. You have to adapt to and integrate into the environment and eventually evolve into a form suitable for survival in this environment.

For Ice Abyss humans, the only way to adapt is to cultivate and become stronger!

As long as you want to cultivate and strengthen, beast meat is an essential resource, which can never be replaced, even with other fruits and Spirit Plants that have better satiation effects.

1,822 advanced hunting teams!

Xia Hong nodded slightly, finally looking towards Yuwen Dao.

Understanding immediately, Yuwen Dao stepped forward and clasped his hands:

“My Lord, in the past year, the Military Department has not expanded its forces, maintaining the scale of fifteen armies. However, in terms of soldier cultivation, there has been significant progress.

As of August, according to returns from each army, all soldiers in the Dragon Slayer, Tiger Leopard, Xuanwu, Divine Martial, and Longyuan armies have broken through to the Cold Resistance Level; over seventy percent in the Falcon Hunting, Mountain River, Xiong Wu, and Beizhao armies have broken through; in the remaining Black Arrow, Qing Jiao, East Sun, and Fei Peng armies, fifty percent have achieved breakthroughs;

The soldiers in the Cloud Jiao Long Wu armies almost all have strength above 6 manes.”

Wow……

The previous information was already shocking, but Yuwen Dao’s last sentence instantly set everyone abuzz.

The soldiers in the Cloud Jiao Long Wu armies all have strength above 6 manes…

Leaving others aside, several people in the hall with military leadership immediately felt a sense of urgency surge in their hearts.

The difference is indeed a bit too large!
