As one of the three major forces in Yuezhou, the Shang Qing Sect never lacked topics to gossip about, as interesting things happened daily.

Some news traveled across the entire Sect within short minutes. Some news was only famous within a small radius before making it across the Sect.

Without a doubt, what Ling Xian did inside the Hall of Mission was a feat that astonished the entire Shang Qing Sect.

After that news pa.s.sed around, a giant storm was formed and swept across the entire Shang Qing Sect.

All those who heard this news fell into a state of astonishment. Even some important figures were stunned for a few moments.

What could they do, what happened was far too shocking.

One hundred missions under the array division, 100 missions under the crafts division, and all of them received a perfect rating. Just how astonis.h.i.+ng was this?

Though all of those missions were low leveled and anyone with some sort of knowledge could complete them, don’t forget that every single one of those missions received a perfect rating. That wasn’t an easy feat!

Even the grandmaster of arrays and the grandmaster of crafts could not achieve getting 200 perfectly rated missions!

That last mission especially was known to be an unsolvable mission that’s been around the Hall of Mission for an entire decade. To know that many people from the Path of Crafts had tried that mission and rumor had it that even the grandmaster of crafts had secretly attempted it.

Yet after an entire decade, that mission was still on the mission board and n.o.body could complete it.

Yet now, someone had done it. It was also personally rated by Elder Dong Fang as magnificent. Why wouldn’t everyone be in awe?

When everyone learned that it was the same person completing all 200 missions, the shock they felt was to a point of no return!

There is a limit to everyone’s energy level. Even the cultivators with much energy have no time to perfect their skills in another path. Because it was hard enough to walk down one path, why would they have the energy to try and polish up another skill set?

Therefore, it was extremely rare for someone to know two different things. There were even less who was good at both.

Yet Ling Xian had completed 100 mission in both the array path and the craft path. Every single mission also received a perfect rating. This alone was enough to prove something.

To prove that he was extraordinary in both paths. At least to everyone inside the Shang Qing Sect, he was of a level of a grandmaster!

At once, the name Xian Ling echoed throughout the Shang Qing Sect and he acquired a commonly agreed upon nickname.

A multi genius in arrays and crafts.

Based on his performance inside the Hall of Mission, he was deserving of this t.i.tle.

It was just that this t.i.tle wasn’t exactly accurate. Because other than his abilities with crafts and arrays, his alchemy and cultivation abilities were also out the world. If only people know of this, they would be giving him an even louder nickname.

After moments of shock, everyone was also very curious.

Normally speaking, people with such excellent skills are not low key. Yet none of them had heard of the name Xian Ling.

What could they do? Though Ling Xian had helped the Array of the Astonished G.o.ds successfully transform, only those of the upper management know about this. To most people inside the Shang Qing Sect, his name was a strange one.

Never in their dreams would they think that the multi genius was a newly admitted pupil.

This was why all the pupils from the two different paths went crazy.

Based on the fact that Ling Xian completely 200 missions, they realized that Ling Xian either wanted to do low leveled missions on purpose, or he could only do low leveled missions.

Whichever possibility it was, to the cultivators without wealth or background, this was a blessing.

Therefore, after a day, all the pupils from the Path of Arrays and Path of Crafts gathered inside the Hall of Mission and began to a.s.sign difficult missions in hope of getting responses from Ling Xian.

After completing 200 missions with perfect ratings, there were no questions about his abilities and naturally, he attracted many people. Even some elders were secretly a.s.signing missions, hoping for answers.

Yet on the second day, Ling Xian did not show himself. This made all the cultivators who had been waiting, flabbergasted.

However, n.o.body gave up. They continued to wait patiently inside the Hall of Missions.

Sadly, Ling Xian still did not show up on the third day. The same happened on the fourth day. This made everyone feel both hopeless and helpless.

Then, someone started an operation that immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

The goal of this operation was to find Ling Xian.

At once, every single corner of the Shang Qing Sect would hear the name Xian Ling. And when the name Xian Ling was said, a roar of exclaims and sighs would follow.

The exclaims were because of his achievements. The sighs were because he only showed his face once before evaporating off the earth.

Just as everyone was feeling helpless, Ling Xian was feeling even more so.

His original plan was to complete missions daily at the Hall of Mission in order to gain points and buy the Shang Qing Technique. Sadly, the appearance of Dong Fang Bi disrupted his plan.

Ever since he arrived to the palace of Dong Fang Bi, this person made him sit down and exchange knowledge every day.

Of course, most of the time, he was the one speaking and Dong Fang Bi was the one listening.

One had to admit that this person sure had a lot he wanted to learn. Every single day, he would ask all sorts of questions like a curious baby, and then, he would listen intently like a well-behaved baby.

His att.i.tude was the only thing that kept Ling Xian going. Or else he wouldn’t have lasted until now.

Of course, a majority of it was because he was earning 1,000 points per hour. If he didn’t, he would’ve left a long time ago.

At 1,000 contribution points per hour, they chat for about five hours a day, which sums up to 5,000 points a day. He has been chatting with Dong Fang Bi for 3 days. In other words, he had earned 15,000 contribution points.

This number was without a doubt, extremely shocking. Most Shang Qing Sect descendants fought for years and could not gather these many points. If this news circulated, many people would be jealous and envious.

Right now, he was discussing things with Dong Fang Bi.

“You should understand this question now.” Ling Xian grinned.

“Yes, thank you for your teaching.”

Dong Fang Bi was overjoyed. The way he was looking at Ling Xian was of respect and appreciation.

For these past three days, he had been acting like a flower being watered. All of his curiosity and questions were being answered, which greatly improved his craftsmans.h.i.+p. He also felt like the contribution points he was spending was so worth it! Since Ling Xian’s knowledge pool was immeasurable!

Therefore, of course, he respected the man before him.

“As long as you understand. I don’t want you to be spending points for nothing.” Ling Xian sipped on his tea and smiled.

“You are joking. All of these points aren’t for nothing.”

Dong Fang Bi continued to grin, “At 1000 points an hour is cheap. I believe many people would be willing to pay you 2,000 points.”

“Oh really?”

Ling Xian raised the corner of his lips and said mindlessly, “Then why don’t I raise the price to 2,000 an hour”

At this, Dong Fang Bi’s old face turned abstract.

These three days, he had paid 15,000 contribution points. Though he was wealthy, his flesh still hurt from this. If he raises the pay to 2,000, then he will declare bankruptcy within days.

At this, Ling Xian smiled and stood up.

“I think you have no more questions now. It is time I go.”

Then, he ignored Dong Fang Bi’s pleading words and left the palace. He headed towards the Hall of Exchange.

Though he still had a distance to go until he had enough wealth to acquire the Shang Qing Technique, he had enough money to exchange the first few chapters.

Therefore, he planned on start studying the first few chapters.
