"Enough, enough, a talent like you is worth the Heavenly Martial Sect paying a price to cultivate."
Elder Fan said with emotion, finding himself a way out.
The plan discussed by several elders clearly aid to make things difficult for Chen Yu, preventing him from obtaining rewards. Yet, in just three years, Chen Yu completed the first reward agreent.
Although these resources were not personally provided by the elders themselves.
But as the sect’s high-ranking mbers, the sect’s interests also affected their interests, and their poor decision-making led to personal losses.
Elder Fan took out a storage bag.
Indeed, he had long prepared the compensation rewards.
But he only packed fifty percent of the compensation rewards.
Despite Chen Yu’s exhibited talent at this mont, he still did not believe Chen Yu could reach the top within the ti limit.
Guan Hongri, second on the Heavenly Martial List, had remained at Five-Star Half for thirty years.
The first, "Song Mang," wasn’t particularly talented but had been an old disciple for many terms, reportedly hoping to challenge the Six-Star King.
Six-Star King is rare across the main world.
Once a Six-Star King breaks through the Xuanming Realm, their strength can crush any ordinary Xuanming Realm, and the chances of reaching the Heavenly Union Divine Realm are also higher.
"Elder Fan, I haven’t taken the two-tenths compensation from before. You wouldn’t swindle , would you!"
Chen Yu spoke without checking the storage bag.
Previously, Elder Fan had said he would reward him with two-tenths compensation, and if he reached fifth, another three-tenths.
But Chen Yu didn’t lack resources at that ti, so he hadn’t rushed to claim them.
"Am I such a person?"
Elder Fan’s white eyebrows raised.
"Hehe!"
Chen Yu deliberately annoyed Elder Fan and left with the storage bag.
After returning to his residence, he opened the storage bag and checked carefully.
What exactly amounted to fifty percent compensation rewards?
His consciousness ca to a separate space, where shining Essence Stones were stacked high.
These were not top-grade yuan stones; they were Top-grade Essence Stones.
"Sixty thousand Top-grade Essence Stones!"
Chen Yu counted them.
One Top-grade Essence Stone equals one hundred top-grade yuan stones, sixty thousand Top-grade Essence Stones is six million top-grade yuan stones.
Besides the Essence Stones, there were eight dium-grade profound artifacts and one high-grade profound artifact.
Essence Stones are hard currency, but profound artifacts are not necessarily. So obscure profound artifacts have low value.
Hence, the more profound artifacts the sect provided, the more Chen Yu theoretically lost.
Yet, Elder Fan didn’t dare to cheat Chen Yu too much, for the matter would beco a disgrace if blown out.
"Once I reach the top, I can get another sixty thousand Top-grade Essence Stones."
Chen Yu’s mouth curved into a smile.
Honestly, the temptation of this benefit was too great.
For sixty thousand Top-grade Essence Stones, Chen Yu had to push harder to reach the top within ten years.
After all, he now had such a vast amount of resources to support him, so he had to improve both his cultivation and strength.
That day, Chen Yu began closed-door training.
"Defeating Song Mang, the first on the Heavenly Martial List, with my current cultivation is very difficult..."
Thus in this training, Chen Yu focused on improving his cultivation, taking out large quantities of cherished materials and Spirit Pills.
Among these items, spoils of war were predominant, with many materials and Spirit Pills to enhance cultivation.
And Chen Yu’s body now could absorb all kinds of energy into his being, maximizing the value of these items.
By circulating "Nine Revolutions Bright Star Technique," he absorbed the dicine efficacy while activating his Azure Dragon Sacred Leg and related Secret Techniques to speed up training.
Feeling the astonishing speed of cultivation, the fifth Primordial Power Star in the Star Sea continued to grow larger, making Chen Yu very satisfied.
Using up vast amounts of resources, but he felt no regret.
After six months of closed-door training.
The cultivation resources Chen Yu had accumulated mostly had been consud, so he proceeded to the Heavenly Treasure Hall for another massive acquisition of cultivation resources.
This scene evoked envy.
Everyone knew Chen Yu had received a substantial compensation reward.
If not for the strict rules of the Heavenly Martial Sect - protecting disciples rigorously, and guarding talents like Chen Yu even more so - many disciples would be planning to gather a group to target Chen Yu.
A year went by.
Many disciples coincidentally left their quarters, waiting for Chen Yu to challenge Jiang Han, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Martial List.
Even Jiang Han himself had already arrived, ready to defend against Chen Yu.
But Chen Yu did not co.
"This year, I focused primarily on improving my cultivation level; overall strength growth wasn’t noticeable, and in the previous battle most of my thods were exposed. If challenged Jiang Han now, the situation would likely be worse than when I challenged Lu Kong last year."
Jiang Han’s strength surely surpassed Lu Kong’s, and the opponent knew Chen Yu’s thods, maybe even strategizing already.
So that year, Chen Yu didn’t act, choosing to continue closed-door training.
Though overall strength growth wasn’t noticeable, he refined his cultivation significantly, and once he broke through to Four-Star Half, his strength would make a marked improvent.
This was Chen Yu’s fourth year of breaking through to Four-Star King.
Chen Yu was confident he’d break through to Four-Star Half within three years.
This cultivation speed was already extrely fast; without innate talent and abundant cultivation resources, it was impossible to make such great improvents in a short ti.
Cultivation is monotonous, repetitive day after day.
Another year passed.
Chen Yu’s cultivation edged closer to Four-Star Half, and he erged from closed-door training and left his quarters.
"Chen Yu’s out."
"After two years, is he going to challenge Jiang Han again?"
At this mont, Chen Yu was the center of attention, instantly drawing the gaze and discussion of many, attracting more and more people.
But ultimately.
Chen Yu didn’t go to the Sky Martial Battle Platform, but instead headed to the Sect Affairs Hall.
Just a few months ago, Chen Yu received a transmission from the steward of the Sect Affairs Hall, instructing him to carry out a mission.
Chen Yu had been in the Heavenly Martial Sect for over a decade and had completed only one high-difficulty mission, contributing nothing else.
The sect has its own rules, requiring all disciples to complete a certain number of tasks within a given ti period to contribute to the sect.
After all, the sect isn’t ant to support freeloaders.
"Ah, it seems Chen Yu has given up."
"His ability to reach the fifth place might have already hit the limit; aiming for the first is simply impossible."
The crowd sighed as they gradually dispersed.
Regarding Chen Yu "giving up" on reaching the first place, no one found it improper; instead, they felt it was a wise decision.
Sect Affairs Hall.
"Nephew Chen, are you here to choose a task?"
The steward initiated the conversation.
Even as a disciple, Chen Yu, in fifth place on the Heavenly Martial List, held a much higher status than ordinary stewards.
"Hmm."
Chen Yu nodded.
The steward imdiately opened a booklet, densely filled with recorded missions.
Chen Yu began to browse.
This ti, for the mission, he would either select a challenging one to hone himself,
Or opt for a simple and easy one to comply with the sect’s rules, and return to continue secluded cultivation.
At that mont, beside the booklet, a few lines of text flashed, drawing Chen Yu’s attention.
"This booklet is a high-grade profound artifact; missions reported to the Sect Affairs Hall are directly engraved onto it,"
The steward explained.
aning this mission was the newest.
"This one then."
"Alright."
The steward began recording and glanced at the task, which was a simple mission issued by a disciple of the Heavenly Martial Sect.
After taking the mission, Chen Yu headed to the sect’s transmission hub.
Utilizing the Transmission Array could save a lot of ti.
After leaving the Heavenly Martial Sect’s territory, Chen Yu proceeded eastward.
He accepted a simple rescue mission; it was posted by a Heavenly Martial Sect disciple nad "Yang Xia," saying his friend’s family encountered so trouble and needed help from a sect disciple.
The target family was just an ordinary Three-star Peak family, overall weaker than the Yang Family where Chen Yu rested when he first arrived in the main world.
For these small families, the Heavenly Martial Sect was an unshakable giant. When a sect disciple appeared, difficulties could be resolved, and these small families wouldn’t dare to oppose the sect disciple.
After half a month’s journey, Chen Yu smoothly arrived.
...
The Zeng Family was a small three-star peak family power, one of the countless such forces in the Great Yu Realm.
By comparison, such families faced even more brutal competition.
When Chen Yu arrived at the Zeng Family, the guards outside the family instantly stood guard, staring intently at Chen Yu.
"Who are you...?"
A guard stepped forward.
But before he could finish, a breath emanated from Chen Yu, dimming the sky and earth.
Space seed to solidify, everything appeared to freeze, all guards stiffened in place, their breaths halted, cold sweat pouring from their foreheads.
Indifferently, Chen Yu walked straight into the Zeng Family.
To the guards in the Sky Sea Realm, Chen Yu felt no need to say much; even showing the Heavenly Martial Sect’s disciple token might not ring a bell for them.
Within the Zeng Family, many guards and family mbers observed a stranger walking calmly as if strolling in a private backyard, leaving them puzzled.
Who is this person?
Yet seeing the stranger acting like he owned the place suggested he might be so friend of a family mber, so they ignored it.
Thus, Chen Yu walked directly to a grand hall of the Zeng Family.
Inside the hall, the Family Head of Zeng and several high-ranking elders were present, each with a stern expression.
"The Cheng Family is simply bullying us too much!"
"Don’t you all have any solutions?"
"Must our Zeng Family really compromise with them?"
Voices echoed.
At this mont, a man appeared outside the hall, calmly saying, "Nice to et you all for the first ti."
After a mont of silence in the hall, all the high-ranking mbers imdiately stood, staring straight at the man outside, eyes wide with shock and panic.
This mysterious man—who was he, to have arrived at the eting hall unnoticed by the entire Zeng Family!
All present released their cultivation aura, rging into a force, pressing toward Chen Yu.
"Who are you?"
The family head of Zeng, a square-faced man, looked tense at this mont.
Under the pressure of nearly ten high-level Zeng Family mbers, Chen Yu showed no sign of disturbance and directly asked, "Do you know soone nad ’Yang Xia’? He commissioned to help solve so issues for you."
"Yang Xia, who?"
No one in the hall knew.
Seeing Chen Yu’s expression turn increasingly hostile, their enmity began to surface.
At this mont, a lady in a blue dress rushed in from outside, excitedly shouting, "I know Yang Xia, you must be Yang Xia’s senior disciple brother, right?"
Chen Yu nodded, confirming he was at the right place.
Then the family head asked, "Qing’er, who is Yang Xia?"
"Probably a disciple of the Heavenly Martial Sect,"
The lady in the blue dress uncertainly replied.
Heavenly Martial Sect!
These three words struck like thunders on all the high-ranking mbers, causing their expressions to change dramatically, and they looked at Chen Yu with incredulous eyes.
In the next instant, all high-ranking mbers quickly withdrew their oppressive aura, their hearts pounding wildly.
