Chapter 138: Recruitment Process
The recruitment process from Gentle Wind didn\'t really interest him much.
In the near future, when most guilds began to make a name for themselves or had sponsors from big corporations, there would be numerous recruiting.
During all these recruiting, there was always one main goal, and that was to recruit capable players.
Although these types of players might come in 1 in 1000 or even 1 in 10,000. As long as they scored one amazing player, the guild would be satisfied.
"What are you smiling at, Feng?" Zhao Kai suddenly asked, walking toward him.
"Nothing, just an acquaintance of mine is recruiting players to her guild." Xu Feng casually responded.
"A guild?" Surprised, Zhao Kai sat across from him and inquired, "What guild is it and how are they recruiting?"
"You\'ve heard of the guild already, and even complained many times."
"The Silver Wind guild?"
There was only one guild so far that Zhao Kai had been constantly hearing since he started playing in the Divine World.
"Mhmm, and now they are recruiting en masse in the forest outside of Riverwood Town."
"Oh, then what are we doing here? Shouldn\'t we start heading there?" Zhao Kai turned anxious and was about to get ready to pack.
However, Xu Feng was confused, tilted his head slightly, and questioned, "Did you want to join the Silver Wind guild?"
Zhao Kai paused for a moment when he heard that. His gaze locked onto Xu Feng and in a baffled tone, "You said it was an acquaintance of yours, so I thought you wanted to join the guild."
"I\'m so done with you…" Xu Feng facepalmed, wondering if he should just kick him in the head. Why was his deduction sometimes on the mark and sometimes very off the mark?
If he wanted to join the guild, then with his time management skills, would he still be late for it?
Not to mention, he had rejected them twice for their attempted poaching.
"Anyway, what are you doing here?\' Xu Feng suddenly questioned. "Have you finished gathering enough Barks?"
Stunned, Zhao Kai swallowed a mouthful of saliva before subtly distancing himself from Xu Feng. He merely came over here to take a little break and was curious as to why Xu Feng was smiling earlier.
Now that he got his answer and was about to be punished for slacking, Zhao Kai ran away like a mouse had seen a cat. At ultra-fast speed, he returned to his training and began adjusting his stance.
\'This Kai…\' Speechless by the latter\'s actions, Xu Feng doesn\'t even know if he should cry or laugh at him.
While Xu Feng decided to continue planning for his scheme as Zhao Kai resumed training, back at the forest outside of Riverwood Town, the hype reached its new peak.
After all, they waited for so long and it was officially time for the recruitment to begin, with many players lining up coordinately to register.
"Y-You only need to tell me your username and game class. After that you will be assigned a number slot, so remember to not forget it." One of Gentle Wind\'s members, SilentWhisper announced somewhat timidly.
Previously, she was falsely accused by Lin Feng of being a traitor because of her horrendous ability despite being an elite member.
She merely was overwhelmed and failed to perform adequately, but was still sacrificed in the end as a safety measure.
Ever since then, she was afraid yet angry with him, vowing to improve herself tremendously to prove him wrong.
It was also a good thing that Gentle Wind decided to give her another chance to remain in the elite reserve team and was also assigned to be in charge of overseeing the recruitment process.
\'I must perform well this time, and make Lin Feng apologize to me.\' SilentWhisper vowed silently, taking her seat as she began scrutinizing every player.
Her duty was not only to check the players registering and maintaining orders but also to spot any nefarious players, especially spies. She could not afford to disappoint Gentle Wind\'s expectations of her again.
"Do I just tell you my name and class only?" One of the players scratched their head and asked nervously. It was clear that he didn\'t expect the procedure to be that simple.
"Yes, we will log you down and you will receive a number. That number will then be required when accessing our guild\'s official site in the forum. Through that forum, there are additional questionnaires that you will be asked." SilentWhisper explained.
"I-Is that so?"
"Yep, once you complete the questionnaire, you\'ll just need to wait 2-5 days for a response from our official guild. If there isn\'t a response, then apologies, but you don\'t fit our guild."
With that explanation said, every player\'s nervousness increased twice fold.
The process was rather simple, but also very nerve-wracking when one thinks about it. To simplify the meaning, the questionnaires were the true test of their qualification whereas today was just a simple registration and a show of influence.
After all, with such a huge crowd patiently waiting in line to register, it demonstrated Gentle Wind\'s influence in the Divine World.
It was a simple and straightforward strategy, but also an extremely devious one.
Who could dare to say they would achieve the same success as Gentle Wind if they openly recruited players in such a grand manner?
Not even Herald Fist would dare to say he could follow the same feat.
"As expected of Guild Leader Gentle Wind. Such a ruthless method could only be done by her."
"Agreed, with this arrangement, the Riverwood Town could be considered a part of the Silver Wind guild from now on."
"Yeah, Guild Leader Herald Fist lost his big lead this time. I wonder if he\'s in a corner crying, especially when he spent so much money."
