According to the conclusions drawn by ancient martial arts predecessors, it is estimated that about five hundred elixirs can enable a top-notch martial artist to complete a physical and soul transformation and ascend to the Innate realm.
Lu Yuan currently has thirteen hundred elixirs. If all are put to use, they can cultivate two Inborn Grandmasters.
Thus, for him, it is time to select candidates for the Innate realm and begin their cultivation.
As for the selection of trainees, Chu State has quite a few options.
Having grown for over twenty years, Chu State now has more than thirty first-class martial artists within its ranks, most of whom belong to the military system and are true disciples under Lu Yuan.
A few belong to the government office system and the Imperial City system, some having joined Chu State from the Jianghu, others being disciples of Lu Yuan, and still others having worked their way up from the grassroots level.
