The heart of picking up scraps was actually the heart of gambling. Everyone had this mentality, but some people had it more, while others had it less.
Chu Xingyun wasn't a gambler, but now, he had to place his hopes on picking up scraps. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to establish this battle team.
Hua Nongyue, who was at the Sixth Sky of Nirvana Layer, and Jun Wuyou, who was at the Third Sky of Nirvana Layer, could not support a battle team with just these two people. The other battle teams could easily crush them with numbers.
Besides Jun Wuyou and Hua Nongyue, Ye Ling, who was at the First Sky of Yin Yang Realm, and You Zai, who had failed the selection three years ago, there were no other team members.
Counting on Ye Ling and You Zai to support the battle team, it might be possible in a few years' time.
For now, Ye Ling and You Zai could only be used to wave flags and shout battle cries.
In a real battle, not only would they be useless, but they would also have to take care of them.
Even if strength wasn't taken into consideration, there were only four people in the battle team. It was simply impossible to form a team.
Not taking Mu Tong's threat to heart, Chu Xingyun led everyone to the recruitment plaza the next morning. No matter what, they had to recruit the last team member.
Selecting talents had always been the most important part of a big force's rise. Whether a force could rise or not depended entirely on whether it could select outstanding talents.
Chu Xingyun had absolute confidence in his method of selecting talents. However … if he wanted to use his secret method, he had to use his soul power.
Ever since his soul had been injured, Chu Xingyun didn't use his soul power easily. Injuries to the soul were always the most troublesome.
Chu Xingyun's secret method of selecting talents came from the Ancient Star Sect. Through this secret method, it could detect a person's talent and aptitude, and even make a rough judgment of their intelligence and character.
Among the six great ancient sects of the True Spirit Continent, the Ancient Star Sect was the best at selecting talents.
In fact, the Ancient Star Sect relied on their excellent vision of selecting talents to become one of the six great ancient sects.
In the past, Chu Xingyun might not have understood, but now he understood.
The True Spirit World was the rear base for selecting and nurturing talents for the Universe World.
More than 10,000 years ago, the Star Sect under the leadership of Sui Luochu was clearly in charge of selecting and cultivating talents.
At that time, Star Sect's power spread across the entire True Spirit Continent. Every year, the number of geniuses that appeared was as numerous as carps crossing the river.
It was because of the massive supply of talents from the True Spirit Continent that the human race could fight against the combined forces of the beasts and demons without falling into a disadvantage.
A few years ago, after Chu Xingyun became the Sect Leader of the Ancient Star Sect, he naturally obtained the secret technique and the Mind's Eye.
The Spirit's Eye was a silver mask made of some unknown metal. Even though it wasn't a weapon, it was still a nine-patterned Imperial Weapon. It was just a hair away from becoming an enemy weapon.
Of course, the Eye of the Soul wasn't a weapon. At most, it could only be considered a rare treasure.
The so-called rare treasures couldn't be used in battle, but had special abilities.
The importance of the Eye of the Soul was needless to say. It could be said that the one who had the Eye of the Soul could rule the world.
However, because it was too important, Chu Xingyun didn't bring it with him this time. Instead, he left it with Shui Qianyue.
Shui Qianyue's feelings for Chu Xingyun didn't need to be doubted. Although Shui Qianyue looked down on Chu Xingyun the most when she was young, and even publicly broke off the engagement.
However, through that spirit trial, Chu Xingyun had already seen through her heart.
Shui Qianyue didn't have the obligation to love him, nor did she have the obligation to marry him.
There was no reason for a girl to pay for someone else's agreement. Even if the person who made the decision for her was her father, it still wouldn't do. Shui Qianyue's own life could only be decided by herself.
Through that spirit trial in the dream realm, Chu Xingyun already knew that Shui Qianyue's feelings for him would never change even in death.
Shui Qianyue was the kind of woman who found it hard to fall in love with someone. However, once she fell in love, she would be dead set on loving someone. There were many such women.
If she didn't like you, she would never marry you for anything. So what if she broke off the engagement? Who said that she couldn't break her promise?
Once she chose you, she would stay by your side regardless of whether you were rich or poor. She would never leave you, even until death.
Unfortunately, Chu Xingyun already had Shui Liu Xiang in his heart. There was no room for anyone else.
Therefore, although Chu Xingyun knew about Shui Qianyue's feelings, he could only pretend that he didn't know.
Before he left, Chu Xingyun handed the entire Wanjian Pavilion to Shui Qianyue and instructed her to select a large number of talents. Chu Xingyun's seven disciples would be in charge of training them.
In order to select talents, one had to possess an outstanding eye of discernment. This was something that Shui Qianyue didn't possess. Thus, Chu Xingyun had given her the Soul's Eye he had obtained from the Ancient Star Sect.
However, although the Mind's Eye had been given to Shui Qianyue, Chu Xingyun had studied this treasure with Mowang Gong out of curiosity. They had even used the Black Sea Sky-Refining Formation to refine one.
Compared to the original Mind's Eye, the one that Chu Xingyun had refined was only a nine-patterned Royal Artifact.
In terms of function, it was still very inferior to the nine-patterned Royal Artifact's Eye.
The Mind's Eye was a nine-patterned Royal Artifact. The energy within it formed a cycle. Once it was activated, it could detect hundreds of targets in a certain area. Everything could be seen at a glance.
On the other hand, the Mind's Eye that Chu Xingyun had refined was far inferior. It was only a nine-patterned Royal Artifact.
The treasures refined by the Black Sea Sky-Refining Formation were basically all black in color. This Mind's Eye was no exception.
Imitation wasn't the same as plagiarism. During the refining process, Chu Xingyun and Mowang Gong had worked together to improve this imitation.
They had retained part of the Mind's Eye's function and added their own understanding. Although the two were similar, they were completely different.
Although it was an imitation, Chu Xingyun and Mowang Gong had added a large amount of knowledge and understanding. Therefore, after the treasure was refined, Chu Xingyun had named it Heaven's Eye!
The Mind's Eye and the Heaven's Eye each had their own characteristics and functions. They could be used together.
To a faction, the Mind's Eye was irreplaceable. If they wanted to select talents on a large scale, they had to use the Mind's Eye.
However, if they wanted to select talents on a small scale, the Heaven's Eye had more functions and the results of its investigation would be more comprehensive and detailed.
Originally, Chu Xingyun didn't want to use it. However, reality forced him to use it. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to select the fifth member no matter what.
Chu Xingyun took out the Heaven's Eye from the Reincarnation Space and put it on his face.
He looked at himself in the mirror. The Heaven's Eye's appearance was that of a black bat. When he wore it on his face, it gave off a mysterious and profound feeling. It was very interesting.
Apart from the mouth, everything above the nose was covered by a black eyepatch.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Chu Xingyun couldn't help but rub his chin. With this eyepatch, even people familiar with him wouldn't be able to recognize him.
