Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 256 - 215: Black Myth: Migrant Workers!
When it comes to each individual investor, the profits they can earn will only increase.
Over the past seven days, the preparatory class students have not only gained significantly in terms of investments, but their learning progress has also been steadily advancing.
Four days ago, the course at Wanbao Treasures Tower concluded, immediately followed by the course from the Star River Dao Sect.
The Star River Dao Sect is the number one sect in Daoist techniques among the Ten Great Immortal Sects.
The Daoist techniques of this sect are vast and intangible, like the starry river, hence the name Star River Dao Sect.
The Daoist Technique Department of this Immortal Sect is also the dream destination for all Daoist technique geniuses.
Students graduating from this major can generally find very respectable jobs.
For example, working at the Water Affairs Bureau, Electric Power Bureau, Meteorology Bureau, Agriculture Bureau, Engineering Bureau, Mining Bureau, and other agencies.
Water-based Daoist techniques, lightning-based Daoist techniques, meteorology-based Daoist techniques, earth-based, wood-based, and metal-based Daoist techniques can all play a huge role in these units.
Take Li Zhengxing and Cloud Spirit for instance, they are both promising students in meteorology.
Li Zhengxing can predict tides caused by stellar movements through observing celestial phenomena, while Cloud Spirit excels at summoning clouds and rain, likely becoming the top officials in Taihua City's meteorology bureau in the future.
In fact, Xiao Meng and Xiao Kong, the siblings, also have decent talents in Daoist techniques.
After all, they're naturally gifted in fire.
Unfortunately, fire-based talents have somewhat fallen out of favor. While excellent for combat, they're a bit lacking for job opportunities.
They can't exactly work at the heating bureau, after all.
But the problem is, in today's world where everyone is a cultivator, people aren't afraid of the cold.
Even the heating bureau is becoming obsolete.
So the Xiao siblings' first choice has never been the Star River Dao Sect, but rather the Observing Heaven Pavilion or the Wanbao Treasures Tower, which are more advantageous for managing their family.
If nothing else, there's also the Evil Extermination Sword Sect or the True Martial Saint Sect for those adept at combat.
After three days of the Star River Dao Sect's course, Su Yuan and others only managed to learn two or three Daoist techniques, gaining little.
Today, however, is the start of a new course.
The instructor is none other than Master Sun from the True Martial Saint Sect.
The True Martial Saint Sect boasts the Federation's strongest Sports and Martial Arts Departments, with excellent employment prospects.
Athlete, sports teacher, martial arts teacher, and even martial arts coach are all viable professions for True Martial Saint Sect graduates.
However, most disciples of the True Martial Saint Sect have only one ultimate dream profession: Secret Realm Explorer.
Theoretically, anyone can enter the Ancient Secret Realm.
But clearly, tough and resilient sports students are better suited to harsh environments, so out of ten secret realm explorers, six are from sports or martial arts backgrounds.
Thus, everyone studied diligently on the introductory Secret Techniques taught by Master Sun in the martial arts class.
There were two Secret Techniques, the Body Refining Secret Technique "Dragon Base Divine Power" for the Sports Department and the "Thousand Sinews Staff Technique" for the Martial Arts Department.
Before learning these secret techniques, Su Yuan had great expectations.
Because he possessed the "Deceitful Martial Constitution" specifically effective against True Martial Sacred Land, which might come into effect when learning the martial arts secret techniques.
[Deceitful Martial Constitution: Can easily discern flaws in the opponent's body and martial arts. Hitting these flaws results in a "critical strike" effect on the enemy.]
However, to Su Yuan's disappointment, the "Deceitful Martial Constitution" seemed only effective in actual combat, of no use during martial arts learning.
Fortunately, where one side fails, another rises.
Though the Deceitful Martial Constitution had no effect, his 'Demon Lord' title was triggered.
Because the seemingly righteous secret techniques of "Dragon Base Divine Power" and "Thousand Sinews Staff Technique" were actually judged to be demonic secret techniques!
Although he couldn't understand why the pesky system made this judgment, its erratic behavior was no surprise to Su Yuan, who didn't mind much.
If there's a free advantage, why not take it? Since it offered a doubled comprehension bonus, he'd learn them anyway.
The morning course soon ended.
With the help of doubled comprehension, Su Yuan managed to gain a preliminary grasp of both secret techniques, almost reaching the Minor Success Realm.
As soon as Master Sun left, before Su Yuan could stretch and relax, Long Wentao, Xiong Wei and other students gathered around him.
"Class Monitor Su Yuan, there are still five days until the twelve-day deadline for the Wanbao Treasures Tower task. Do you think the Primordial Sect can still find any new revenue sources?"
A preparatory class student asked expectantly.
In seven days, they had witnessed firsthand how the Primordial Sect expanded and rose, leaving no doubts about Su Yuan's money-making ability.
But human desires are like a boulder rolling down a mountain, once started, they won't stop.
According to the current valuation of the Primordial Sect, by the settlement day, each person will earn over 100% pure profit, yet everyone wanted more.
They hoped that Su Yuan could work a miracle!
Before Su Yuan could reply, Long Wentao immediately said:
"Su Yuan, I remember you mentioned there were two powerful demon sects in Taihua City that couldn't be eradicated, one of which was Loan Aid."
"Now that Loan Aid has been destroyed and its assets have been divided between the Primordial Sect, shouldn't we deal with the other demon sect next?"
"Can you give us a sneak peek about what kind of sect the last illegal demon sect in Taihua City is?"
Long Wentao's question clearly represented all the preparatory class students.
After he finished speaking, everyone waited quietly for Su Yuan's response.
Faced with this question, Su Yuan's expression visibly grew serious. Supporting his chin with both hands, he replied in a deep tone:
"To be honest, I do have the intent to eradicate the last illegal demon sect."
"How can I let others snore beside my bed? The underground forces of Taihua City can only consist of the Primordial Sect!"
"But through my investigation, I've found the enemy's power is so strong that it's hard to contend with, and it can't be achieved by the Primordial Sect's strength alone."
"Even if all the prodigies in our class acted together, it wouldn't ensure a safe plan to eradicate them."
Upon hearing this, the preparatory class students leaned back in their seats in tactical relaxation.
After a while, Yin Qiyue from the crowd cautiously asked:
"Sect Leader, what kind of demon sect could invoke such dread in you?"
Su Yuan slowly replied:
"The name of this demon sect is Black Myth..."
"Wukong?"
Qi Hanyan interjected.
Su Yuan glanced at the girl and shook his head:
"Not Black Mythical Wukong, it's Black Myth... Labor."
The preparatory class students: "..."
Su Yuan continued:
"From the name, you can probably guess the nature of this sect."
"This sect is a demon sect founded by the biggest contractor in Taihua City, growing its strength by recruiting migrant workers from Taihua City and its surrounding towns."
"Under the Demon Sect Leader's guidance, these workers engage in all sorts of illegal and noncompliant work at construction sites to earn a living, leading to frequent safety incidents."
"But they also happen to be the cheapest and best construction teams in Taihua City's civil engineering sector. Developers turn a blind eye to the demon sect's violations, even actively shielding them."
"As long as there's no major incident, the authorities can't do anything about the demon sect."
After hearing about the Labor Sect, the students fell into silence.
The Labor Sect was indeed a thorny issue.
They couldn't use law enforcement to topple the Black Labor Sect, plus the combined power of so many workers was formidable.
Without leveraging family power, defeating the workers wouldn't be easy.
Moreover, there's a practical question... what's the point of destroying the Black Labor Sect?
The workers would lose their jobs, and the Primordial Sect couldn't develop a civil engineering business in the short term, leading to a lose-lose situation.
It wasn't just Long Wentao and the others who thought this way, even Su Yuan did.
But there was no choice; the damn system's task was to eradicate six demon sects and take over their businesses.
Not one could be missing!
The first five demon sects had been removed and absorbed by himself, so what would leaving just the Black Labor Sect be?
A roadblock?
Even if not for profit, this demon sect must be eradicated!
Yet Su Yuan truly couldn't figure out how to get rid of it.
And just when Su Yuan was at a loss, suddenly, a chime echoed in his ear.
[Note: After you and your subordinates learned "Dragon Base Divine Power" and "Thousand Sinews Staff Technique," the Primordial Sect has met the preconditions to recruit the "Black Labor Sect"!]
[Successfully recruiting them will count as eliminating the "Black Labor Sect" and taking over their business.]
"Recruit... recruit them?"
