Chapter 5: Chapter 5: The Diligent Emperor
The advancent from Gathering Essence First Rank to Second Rank represented a world of difference. The second rank in Qi Fortune effectively put him ahead of ninety percent of ordinary people.
Take spells for example, when Zhao Xing cast [Cloud Movent], among a hundred tis, it might only trigger Qi Fortune twice or thrice, enhancing the effect by two or three-tenths. Players dubbed this phenonon 'Minor Success with Spells.'
In a thousand casts, it might trigger a 'Double Effect' once, known among players as a 'Major Success with Spells'!
However, with the second rank in Qi Fortune, casting spells ten tis could trigger the 'Minor Success' effect two or three tis, and within a hundred casts, it might trigger a 'Major Success' effect once.
This advantage extended beyond just spell casting, encompassing serendipitous events like finding treasures on the road, eting hidden masters while seeking guidance, or never catching an empty net while fishing...
Especially during the 'Fortune Dynasty' version, these effects beca even more pronounced.
"But, why is it like this? I clearly rember that the Tao Embryo Pill didn't have this effect... Hmm?"
A sudden realization struck Zhao Xing, considering a possibility.
"The current Dream Palace was different from the later 'Yun ng Academy'; the forr possessed abundant treasures, while the latter was more of a re tool."
"Could it be that by entering the Dream Palace, I indirectly received so Qi Fortune from the ancient Li Dynasty?"
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seed, so Zhao Xing began to recall related plotlines about this ancient dynasty, evaluating whether this outco was good or bad.
In the end, he concluded that the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.
"The Li Dynasty era was far removed from the Great Zhou, only during so period of chaos among the feudal lords did forces claiming to be remnants of the Li Dynasty act under this banner, but they never made much of an impact, let alone in the current era."
"Qi Fortune increase, intangible and traceless, advancing from First Rank to Second Rank wouldn't attract attention at all."
"If it can continue to enhance, there's no rush; by then, I'd already be integrated into the Great Zhou system. If a high-ranking official notices in the future, at worst I'd reveal the thod to enter the Dream Palace to the state and make a quick profit."
Zhao Xing rembered that the person who discovered the thod to open the Dream Palace was not 'specially handled.' In contrast, after presenting the thod to Emperor Wu, he was conferred the title of Marquis Xian and awarded a piece of land.
Hence, even if the Qi Fortune increase was discovered, it was a matter of how much he'd profit, rather than a safety concern.
"Nevertheless, it's best to enter the system as soon as possible."
Understanding everything, Zhao Xing felt at ease.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck~"
As the sound of a rooster crowing ca from outside, he quickly freshened up and hurried out the door.

Currently, the Gucheng Minister of Agriculture Supervision had over five hundred people.
However, Nanyang County only allocated three to five slots to Gucheng each year.
Most clerks without talent or background could only endure the hardship, waiting for those outstanding competitors to get promoted.
The Minister of Agriculture Supervision was still relatively better—other systems like military, engineering, law, literature, and rites had even tougher advancent channels.
In simple terms, the Minister of Agriculture had better prospects for job changes compared to Martial Artists, chanical Masters, and Doctors.
This year, the Supervision had many 'experts,' such as Li Chengfeng and Wen Nanxing, who were already nearing Gathering Essence Third Rank.
They not only mastered basic spells like [Cloud Movent], [Bringing Rain], [Thunder Strikes], and [Wind Summoning], but also began studying advanced versions.
Advanced secrets like "Tily Wind and Rain" and "Commanding Wind and Rain".
They could even enter the divine temple to comprehend advanced secrets like "Seasonal Order" and "All Things Growth Map
