In the end, only four of Krune's ten employees decided to move to Capivari City, Nina, Lino, Bai, and Jilin. Jilin was one of his newest employees, a chef that worked in the Kitchen with Krune and Luina. Krune gave everyone who decided to stay a bonus and introduced them to other Spiritual Food Restaurant owners to get acquainted in these years.

One of these restaurants was Oclo's. He was the person who introduced Spiritual Food to Krune, so they were quite good friends. In the last three years, Oclo had also successfully entered the Semi-Divinity Realm, much to Krune's delight.

"Oh, I don't have enough space for everyone, but I can take two of the waiters you had."

Krune smiled.

"Thank you, Chef Oclo. They are very good waiters, I can guarantee that."

After finishing dealing with all those problems, Krune went to the Spiritual Chef Guild. This one was just a branch he was registered, but now he was leaving. He has to change his branch to Capivari City's ones. As a City close to a strong Sect, Capivari City was much bigger than Immai. 

Iem also did the same thing and changed his registration in the Formations Master Guild to Capivari City. After that, he went ahead first and told Krune where he would be staying once he arrived there.

One week before the Sky Shifting Sect entrance exam, Krune closed his Immai City's restaurant door for the last time. Behind him, Nina, Bai, Jilin, and Lino were waiting. Nina was quite the sentimental girl, so she couldn't help but teary up a little when she saw Krune removing the restaurant's board. Those last three years were the happiest she had in her life so far.

Bai patted her head and laughed out loud.

"Why the tears? We are just moving to another city, that's all. We are going to open the restaurant there as well."

Nina nodded at Bai with a smile.

Krune then came down and looked at those four.

"Are you sure you want to come with me? What about your families?"

Jilin was the first to answer.

"I'm an orphan. I have no family to start with. I'm relatively young, so I never thought about marrying or anything like that either. Besides a few friends here and there, I don't have that much attachment to this city. Chef Krune pays me a lot more than any other job I did so far; therefore, I have no need to think twice."

Bai also added his piece.

"I do have a family, but I'm taking them with me there. I will only find a place to settle down, and then my wife and kid will come a few days later. The reason is the same as Jilin, Chef Krune pays me a lot more than what I got in other jobs before, so the choice was obvious for me."

Nina and Lino just smiled. After all, Krune already knows their background story. There didn't have parents either. It was relatively easy for them to move somewhere else since they didn't have much to lose to start with. Besides, Nina really felt like she hasn't repaid Krune enough for everything he did for her.

Krune nodded after hearing their answers.

"Very well, let's go."

---

Capivari City was at least four to five times bigger than Immai. That was the effect of having a famous sect nearby. The populace was at least over thirty million, making it a much better place for Krune to open his restaurant. The city also had all other side occupations' branches, which were a lot busier than those in Immai City. 

The Sky Shifting Sect was more or less the owner of the city. It's city lord just so happened to be one of the Sect's elders too. Some even liked to think that the city was part of the Sect itself. Not too surprisingly, the side occupation branches' supervisors were mostly occupied by Sky Shifting Sect members as well.

Somewhere close to the Formations Master's Guild Branch, there was an enormous chain of buildings. Each one of them had several teleport formations inside. Obviously, the Formations Master Guild controlled the flux of visitants to the city and its income. Suddenly, one of those formations began to flash with silver light. A second later, five figures appeared on it.

Clearly, those were Krune and his restaurant employees. Just as he came out, the cultivator responsible for that formation came forward.

"Hello, welcome to Capivari City. The entrance fee is 20 Godly Stones for each person or demon beast."

Krune nodded and passed twenty Godly Stones over. He didn't pay for the others, though. He already told them that he wouldn't help with anything, only provide them with their jobs back. The others knew that as well, so even though the price was quite salty for them, they still paid it.

Krune then asked something.

"The Sky Shifting Sect entrance exam starts in one week, right?"

The Formations Master Guild member quickly nodded.

"Yes. If you wish to take part in it, you must be at the Divine Path Realm, at the very least. We have teleport formations here that can bring you directly to the Sect's entrance as well. Of course, there is a fee for that. Otherwise, you can go there by yourself."

Krune nodded and then left with his group. After checking the city's map in his communicator, they made their way to the restaurant's new building. Krune wouldn't come without having everything ready. A few days ago, Krune had teleported here after his restaurant closed just to look for a good place. After talking with the owner of the site, he paid the first year of rent. All they needed to do was to go there and organize everything now.

Just like in Immai City, Krune didn't rent a place close to the city center. Instead, he preferred a calmer place, but that had enough movement. The new building was roughly the same size as his previous one. Once they entered, Krune passed Bai a Spatial Ring with a few hundred Godly Stones.

"Use this to refurbish the place. There is no need for fancy things. I just want a good ambient where the customers can relax while they enjoy the food."

Bai wasn't surprised by that. He had been the one taking care of all payments related to the restaurant during the last three years. In a certain way, he was the manager, while Krune was the boss, so he was used to that.

"Don't worry, I'll have everything ready by the end of the week. Lino, come and help me buy the things we need."

Lino nodded, and the two of them left straight away.

Krune then took another spatial ring out and tossed it at Nina and Jilin.

"You two have been working with me in the kitchen for quite some time, so you should know how I like it. Most of the tools are inside the spatial ring, so go to the kitchen and set everything up. If you lack anything, use the Godly Stones in the Spatial Ring to buy."

Nina and Jilin nodded and immediately left as well.

After giving his orders, Krune took a look at the time.

"I guess I'll go find the rest of the employees I need."

Just like before, Krune went to the Spiritual Chef Guild Branch. After confirming that his registration had been transferred to this one, he went to look into the employment system. He once again browsed through the list carefully, reading every single detail of the applications. A few hours later, he selected fifteen possible candidates. He only needed to interview them to find the six that he would take in.

Krune quickly sent them a message with the specifics and left the Spiritual Chef Guild. 

Around one hour later, he arrived at the Formations Master Guild Branch. Soon, he saw Iem coming out from there.

"Hey, you finally came."

Krune nodded.

"Everything went better than I thought. How's your side?"

Iem pondered a bit before saying.

"It as I expected. Because this branch is bigger, they have a lot more Formations Masters and information of Formations. During the time we aren't in the Sky Shifting Sect, I will have a lot to do here."

"What about the recruitment exam?"

Iem nodded.

"I already checked it. In the past, the exam happened once every three years. The contents changed every single time too. But because of the war, they can't take too long testing the candidates. So they made a standard test that had been in use ever since the war started."

Krune already expected something like that.

"I see, and what is it about?"

Iem opened his communicator and sent the information over. Krune quickly opened his own and took a look.

"As you can see, it's not too complicated. First, the Sky Shifting Sect will check if you are at the Divine Path Realm at the very least. Obviously, we already cleared this one."

"Second, they will check our strength. I don't know precisely how the Sect does this. Still, I guess it would be something like an Illusion Formations or a short spar against another participant at the same level. Well, regardless, we are both several times stronger than those at our level, so it will be easy."

"Those two are the standard tests. As long as we do well in them, we are most likely guaranteed entrance. There are other tests, but they have little to do with the war. Of course, make sure to fare well in them too just in case."

Krune nodded. After that, they conversed for a little longer before they separated once more. All that was left was to wait for the exam to start.
