"Just this year, Master Xinghe from Wendao Sect successfully reached Nascent Soul stage. In fifteen days, on the night of the Lantern Festival, we’ll be holding the Nascent Soul Ceremony, and a group from the valley will be attending."
"We’ve been discussing whether we should let Junior Sister Wen go, to enquire about our master’s condition and, if possible, bring her back. Now it seems, you’re the only option!"
Seeing Yu Qingtan’s confusion, Li Xingruo took the initiative to explain.
"During the Nascent Soul Ceremony, there’s usually a competition among the juniors to showcase talents. The more outstanding our disciples are, the more benefits both the sect and the disciples will receive.
Therefore, the valley has decided to send cultivators under thirty who are at the Golden Core stage, those under twenty at the Foundation Establishnt stage, and those under sixteen in the late stages of Qi Cultivation to participate."
"Among the four of us, the youngest, Junior Sister Wen, will turn nineteen after the New Year. Although she is at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishnt, she’s not adept at combat, and she isn’t interested in participating in such events, so it would be best if you went."
"Okay, I’ll go!"
Yu Qingtan agreed without a second thought, as she was now starting to consider Core Formation and needed to prepare in all aspects.
The Affection Value is crucial among these preparations, and she wouldn’t miss such an opportunity to make an appearance.
"Now that you’ve entered Foundation Establishnt, I’ll first take you to handle the formalities for becoming a true disciple of Tianxiang Valley, receive the corresponding benefits, and to et the Valley Master. We can report your participation in Wendao Sect’s Nascent Soul Ceremony directly to the Valley Master."
"Thank you for the trouble, Senior Sister Li!"
After Gao Yue and the others took their leave, Li Xingruo used her willow-leaf-shaped flying spirit artifact to take Yu Qingtan to the General Affairs Hall.
On the way, Li Xingruo transferred to Yu Qingtan the earnings of Zhi Lan Pavilion for the past six months, 350,000 Spirit Stones, and asked about Yu Qingtan’s cultivation progress in spells.
Yu Qingtan stated that she had already cultivated the Second Stage Object Controlling Technique, Purification Spell, Water Blade Technique, Water Escape Technique, and Water Curtain Technique.
"Yurong was right, you truly are an exceptional talent in the art of techniques. But, ’the taller the tree, the stronger the wind it attracts.’ Rember to keep a low profile."
"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister Li. Qingtan understands." She didn’t even reveal how proficient she was, as she also didn’t ntion that she had mastered those techniques to perfection. Li Xingruo assud that based on the foundation of first-stage spells, at most these would only be at a level of minor proficiency by now.
"Being promoted to a true disciple cos with a reward of one thousand Contribution Points, which you can use at the Scripture Pavilion to exchange for Heavenly Fragrance Sword Art and Heavenly Fragrance Illusory Dance. These are our Tianxiang Valley’s signature techniques. You can exchange for other techniques as you see fit."
"Mhm! But Senior Sister Li, why do I feel like Sister Ni doesn’t like
very much?"
"Ha, that... don’t mind her; she’s just a bit jealous. She and Second Sister Gao Yue are a couple, and seeing how interested Gao Sister seed in you, Ni Sister got a little envious.
But Gao Sister was just amazed by your talent and appearance. I know their temperant; they won’t hold it against you."
"I see!"
No wonder the two of them were so affectionate with each other.
The two arrived at the General Affairs Hall, where the sa Ye-nad deacon took care of the true disciple Jade Token and distributed benefits.
The deacon was extrely impressed with how quickly Yu Qingtan reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishnt and was very enthusiastic in his service.
The benefits included one hundred dium Grade Spirit Stones, a standard-issue second-stage lower-grade spirit sword, a second-stage lower-grade flying spirit sword, a second-stage lower-grade ssage transmission spirit sword, and one thousand Sect Contribution Points.
There was no spiritual garnt of the Spiritual Artifact level. She was still issued two sets of pink first-grade superior-quality sect uniforms, which were more intricately embroidered than the previous inner sect disciple’s attire.
Since spiritual garnts and items above that level are extrely difficult to refine and the materials are scarce, such items are precious and rare. Typically, more common items are inner armors and armor, which are also on the pricier side among sa-level equipnt.
There were no second-stage Spirit Tailor dresses, as a second-stage Spirit Tailor would surely be a second-stage artifact refiner, so Yu Qingtan didn’t focus on this aspect for the ti being.
After all, she just wanted to look good; she wasn’t counting on her dress for defense. For example, today, she wore a first-grade superior-quality Spiritual Artifact level pink dress nad "Peach Branch Dream
