Yuan Quan, Breakthrough, Mission!

Qin Yi and Yun Meng'er prepared to go together to Mu Wan, the Palace Master of Tianxuan Palace, to report on the trial.

As it turned out, Mu Wan was unavailable.

The two then returned to their lodgings and had a good rest for the whole day!

The next day.

Feng Ao has arrived.

"Junior Brother Qin, congratulations on winning first place in the trial!"

"Junior Sister Yun, congratulations on achieving second place in the trial!"

Feng Ao was enthusiastic and had a big smile on his face.

Yun Meng'er blinked and asked, "Senior Brother Feng, where is Senior Sister Feng?"

Feng Ao said, "My sister just broke through to the first level of the Cave Heaven Realm and wants to exchange for a cultivation resource that our Great Feng Dynasty can't provide at the Heavenly Star Martial Academy. She's still short some Star Points, so she went to do a mission."

"Is it dangerous?" Qin Yi asked.

Feng Ao said, "It's not a difficult task, so don't worry. By the time my sister comes back, her accumulated star points should be enough to advance her to a ten-star disciple."

"If I can exchange for what I want, I'm confident that I can represent Tianxuan Palace and achieve a good result in the Tianxing Grand Competition, which will begin in a month and a half."

"Palace Master Mu has been very kind to us. My sister wants to do something for Palace Master Mu during the Heavenly Star Competition..."

Qin Yi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Are the results of the Heavenly Star Competition very important to the Palace Master?"

"Hmm!" Feng Ao's expression became much more serious. He said, "If no one from Tianxuan Palace can enter the top three in this Tianxing Grand Competition, Palace Master Mu will have to resign from his position as Palace Master."

"This matter involves some power struggles and infighting among the higher-ups of Tianxing Martial Academy."

"It is said that this matter was decided a year ago, but the news has only spread in the last few days."

After hearing what Feng Ao said...

Qin Yi's brows immediately furrowed.

He remembered all the kindness Mu Wan had shown him.

Mu Wan had never told him about such a big thing.

He suddenly remembered that Palace Master Liu of Yaoguang Palace had instructed them to get the best results possible during the trial... Then Mu Wan stopped Liu Yan from continuing.

In retrospect, what Liu Yan wanted to say at the time must have been related to Mu Wan's resignation as the master of Tianxuan Palace.

"The Palace Master doesn't want to put pressure on me, so she doesn't want me to know," Qin Yi thought to himself.

"To participate in the Heavenly Star Competition, one must become a five-star disciple. Senior Brother Feng, is there any way for me to advance to a five-star disciple within the next month and a half?"

Qin Yi decided that he must participate in the Tianxing Grand Competition, not only to be among the top three, but also to win first place, as a way to repay Mu Wan!

Feng Ao said, "Junior Brother Qin is actually not far from becoming a five-star disciple."

"When Junior Brother Qin joined Tianxing Martial Academy, he received 890 star points during the assessment, 30,000 star points when he condensed his golden core, 9,000 star points when he broke the Fengying Forest record three times in a row, and 26,530 star points in this trial."

"Therefore, Junior Brother Qin's current total number of Star Points is 66,420."

"A one-star disciple can be promoted to a two-star disciple once they accumulate 10,000 star points. To be promoted from a one-star disciple to a four-star disciple, one needs to accumulate 60,000 star points."

"So, Junior Brother Qin, all you have to do now is register, and you'll be a four-star disciple immediately."

Qin Yi was taken aback.

Unexpectedly, he had already become a four-star disciple of Tianxing Martial Academy without even realizing it.

Yun Meng'er said, "So, does that mean I'm a three-star disciple too?"

Feng Ao nodded and said, "That's right."

Qin Yi: "So, I'm still about 34,000 Star Points away from becoming a five-star disciple!"

"I'm going to the Mission Hall right now!"

He wanted to do something for Mu Wan.

"Wait!" Feng Ao called out to Qin Yi, saying, "Junior Brother Qin, I have a general understanding of the mission situation at the Mission Hall."

"Completing a task requiring around 34,000 star points within a month and a half is extremely difficult. The key point is that it's rare for ordinary disciples to encounter a task requiring so many star points."

"But I know that in a few days there will be a series of quests, and if I complete them, I will be able to get 50,000 star points."

"Just wait a few days patiently!"

"I'll have someone keep an eye on it, and I'll let you know as soon as that task is released!"

Yun Meng'er also said, "Brother Qin, I know you're anxious, but we need to stay calm and wait for the chain quest with 50,000 star points to be released first."

Feng Ao nodded, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"

Qin Yi cupped his hands in greeting to Feng Ao and said, "Then I'll leave it to Senior Brother Feng."

"It's nothing." Feng Ao waved his hand and then said, "Junior Brother Qin, the matter you asked my sister to inquire about last time has also been reported by our Great Feng Dynasty's spies."

Qin Yi immediately realized that what Feng Ao was talking about was the information about the Blood Slaughterer that he had asked Feng Linglong to help him find out.

Yun Meng'er said, "Brother Qin, you talk to Senior Brother Feng."

She left on her own initiative.

Qin Yi asked, "Have you found the Bloodthirsty Swordsman?"

Feng Ao hummed in agreement and said, "The Blood Slaughter Blade Master is a rogue cultivator whose whereabouts are mysterious, but our Great Feng Dynasty's spies have found out that he has been staying in Feng Hua City for the past few years."

"Feng Hua City?" Qin Yi asked, "Where is it?"

Feng Ao's expression became even more solemn. He said, "Within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, and within Feng Hua City, there is also a branch of the Qin family."

"This is the detailed information about the Bloodthirsty Swordsman."

Feng Ao handed a secret letter to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi took the secret letter, opened it, glanced at it, memorized all the words inside, and then destroyed the letter.

Feng Ao: "Junior Brother Qin, if you want to make contact with the Blood Slaughter Blade Master, I don't recommend you go now. Give me some time, and I'll try to find a way to invite him to another place so we can meet!"

Qin Yi said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Feng again!"

"You can rest assured that I'll handle things!" Feng Ao patted his chest and assured him.

After Feng Ao left.

Qin Yi then went with Yun Meng'er to register their identities.

Qin Yi was promoted to a four-star disciple.

Yun Meng'er has been promoted to a three-star disciple.

Immediately afterwards, Yun Meng'er returned to her residence, while Qin Yi went directly to the Tianyuan Secret Realm, which only four-star disciples could enter!

Within this Tianyuan Secret Realm lies a Yuan Stone mine.

If one cultivates in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, the speed of advancement in one's cultivation level will be much faster.

Of course, entering the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm also requires Star Points!

Three thousand stars are needed for one day, and only low-grade Yuan Springs from the Tianyuan Secret Realm can be used.

Yuanquan is a unique cultivation resource found in the Yuan Stone vein of the Tianyuan Secret Realm. Each Yuanquan contains pure and rich Yuan energy.

Yuanquan (a type of ancient Chinese spring stone) is divided into four grades: low grade, medium grade, high grade, and top grade.

Given Qin Yi's current status, he can only use low-grade Yuan Springs.

Only ordinary disciples who have reached the tenth star level can use the mid-grade Yuan Spring, which costs five thousand star points per day.

Qin Yi quickly found a low-grade Yuan Spring that no one was using.

A circular spring, about ten feet in diameter, gushed forth a continuous stream of pure elemental energy from its bottom.

Qin Yi sat down cross-legged directly in the Yuan Spring.

He took out the pills from his storage ring.

These pills were spoils of war obtained by killing remnants of the Blood Demon Cult in the Blood Mist Swamp.

Especially the Blood Demon Cult Saintess's storage ring, which was rich in resources.

For the other members of Tianxing Martial Academy, they cannot directly use the cultivation resources of the Blood Demon Cult warriors, since most of those resources are related to cultivating demonic techniques.

But Qin Yi could use it directly.

No one is more suitable than him!

After swallowing the pill, Qin Yi visualized a demonic image in his mind and fully activated the Primordial Demonic Art. The top-grade golden core in his dantian began to spin rapidly.

The demon devours heaven and earth!

The Yuan energy gushing from the low-grade Yuan Spring was quickly absorbed and refined by Qin Yi, with not a trace able to dissipate.

He needs to seize the time to improve his strength. Once the Mission Hall issues the series of missions that reward 50,000 star points, he will immediately accept the missions, become a five-star disciple, and then represent Tianxuan Palace in the Tianxing Grand Competition!

Take first place to repay Mu Wan's kindness!

Time flies, and six days have passed!

It consumed 18,000 Star Points and a batch of Blood Demon Sect cultivation resources.

Qin Yi's cultivation level has successfully broken through to the fifth level of the Core Formation Realm.

The golden light emanating from his body suddenly spread outwards.

But in the next instant, all the golden light receded back into his body like a receding tide.

"Is there still no news about the series of missions from the Mission Hall?" Qin Yi frowned. Although he was staying here, Feng Aoruo could come in and inform him at any time if she had any news.

After all, Feng Ao is a seven-star disciple and doesn't lack these few thousand star points.

"I'll go out and see what's going on myself. I can't delay any longer!" Qin Yi muttered to himself.

He had just left the Tianyuan Secret Realm when he saw Feng Ao, who looked hurried, rushing towards him!

"Have the series of missions been issued?" Qin Yi asked.

Slightly out of breath, Feng Ao immediately nodded: "Yes, it was just issued."

"Let's go to the Mission Hall!" Qin Yi couldn't wait any longer!
