"I didn't expect Liu Qichao and Li Mingbo to be such talented individuals. They managed to coordinate the formations so skillfully."
Ye Ningze also nodded with a smile. The reversal of the situation just now was indeed largely due to these two.
What was most crucial was their exceptional默契 (mòqì - tacit understanding) in their coordination. Su Xue understood this very clearly.
Their slow pace this time was specifically to train this formation and their familiarity with it.
Since they hadn't trained this formation for long, it was evident that Liu Qichao and Li Mingbo possessed formidable adaptability.
It was precisely for this reason that Su Xue sighed, acknowledging them as true talents. However, even so, they would still need time to constantly refine their skills to fully unleash the formation's true combat power.
After observing the final battle results, Ye Ningze slowly nodded and said to Su Xue:
"Now it's your turn to train this formation. I hope you can master it quickly, as only by mastering it can you survive in dangerous environments."
Su Xue was momentarily bewildered and surprised by Ye Ningze's words. She hadn't expected him to entrust them with such a thing.
This was an incredibly precious item. Handing it over to them was akin to giving them the most valuable thing in the world.
Therefore, Su Xue, unable to believe it, asked Ye Ningze:
"Are you serious about giving this to us? You know this is priceless. If you wanted to trade it, many prominent families would willingly offer treasures of immense value in exchange."
Ye Ningze slowly shook his head and smiled, then said to Su Xue with great ease:
"While these things are good, they are not the best for me. The best thing for me right now is to have a strong ally. The stronger you are, the safer I am, and our organization will gain greater room for survival and reap the greatest benefits from the Sun Base."
Su Xue nodded silently after hearing this.
Indeed, they were now in the same boat, sharing prosperity and adversity.
To gain greater benefits, they had to possess stronger capabilities.
This was why Ye Ningze was willing to spare no expense, cost, or even risk everything to make them more powerful.
Moreover, Ye Ningze had other trump cards that could grant them even greater strength. Su Xue's unwavering support for Ye Ningze back then was precisely for this day.
Because Su Xue knew that only when she became Ye Ningze's partner would he share many of his trump cards with her.
Su Xue even felt that if Ye Ningze ever wanted to use the entire Su family as a bargaining chip, she would readily hand them over without hesitation.
After Ye Ningze handed the formation to Su Xue, she immediately instructed the Su family members to begin rigorous training. During the training, they were also required to report any encountered problems to her.
To be honest, when the Su family members began training, they never imagined they would encounter such a miraculous formation.
This formation seemed to effortlessly merge their powers, allowing them to become a unified whole, ultimately transforming them into a sharp blade capable of piercing the enemy's heart.
Once such a powerful tool was in their hands, they understood its significance.
It meant a colossal fortune had been entrusted to them, and they began training with fervent dedication, sometimes even to the point of neglecting food and sleep.
They diligently set these elements as their training goals. This was merely the first step; the second was to engage in mixed combat with the subordinates of Liu Qichao and Li Mingbo.
The people led by Liu Qichao and Li Mingbo had already mastered their respective formations, undoubtedly putting them ahead.
They could learn a great deal from Liu Qichao and Li Mingbo, constantly refining their own strength through continuous learning.
Seeing this scene, Su Xue was immensely pleased. She had never imagined that in her pursuit of power, she could so easily obtain such a potent source of strength.
She recalled experiencing numerous hardships in her pursuit of power over the years, some of which she still felt she had narrowly escaped death from due to sheer luck.
Even the eldest daughter of the Su family had nearly perished on the path to power, let alone others. Therefore, this was truly a tremendous opportunity for them.
After all, how many opportunities does a person get in a lifetime? Grasping even one was remarkable.
Even the Su family, possessing far more cultivation resources than ordinary people, did not always encounter such resources with ease.
Ye Ningze watched the individuals training diligently and then said to Su Xue:
"I didn't expect your Su family members to be so diligent and hardworking. They aren't much different from ordinary people, considering you are from a prominent family."
Su Xue paused for a moment before answering Ye Ningze's question:
"Actually, life as a scion of a prominent family isn't as easy as you might think. Our families have a system for merit-based advancement. This means if our contributions are lacking, the cultivation resources we receive are also limited. Consequently, to obtain more resources, we must perform exceptionally well."
Ye Ningze slowly nodded, understanding that this implied a form of intense competition within their prominent families, a competition that was even more severe than for others.
Thus, for the Su clan, this was simply a customary practice. Frankly speaking, the Su clan was long accustomed to constantly fighting and killing in a harsh and bloody environment.
Ye Ningze slowly shook his head, acknowledging that every family had its own unique set of challenges.
