The number of missions set by Shi Two in the Upper Realm had been completed, but because there was a settlement date, Jun Changxiao could only wait while thinking about how to scheme against Empress Ling Yao.
New missions were refreshed at fixed intervals, and the disciples continued to do them alone or in groups while they were cultivating. After all, they would be rewarded after completion.
"Patriarch."
Li Qingyang said, "The martial arts resources in the vending machine can no longer bring benefits to the disciples."
Sect missions were actually disciples' missions, and after completion, they would be rewarded with corresponding contribution points to purchase items in the personal store. However, since they had not been upgraded after coming to the Upper Realm, they were almost non-existent.
"No rush, no rush."
Jun Changxiao said, "Let everyone save their contribution points first. When the version is upgraded, it will definitely come in handy."
Because the Disciple Store had not been upgraded, he could only let everyone save their contribution points first, and when the version was upgraded, they could squander them as much as they wanted.
Stupid author, hurry up and upgrade it!
"Sorry."
The System said, "The Disciple Store requires the host to spend contribution points, achievement points, or reputation points to upgrade."
"…"
Jun Changxiao roared, "Does this Upper Realm System have a function that doesn't cost money?!"
"Yes, it will be refreshed five times a month for free!"
"…"
The Disciple Store was still in the Lower Realm, and the items sold there could not keep up with the times. The new pills were not fully provided, so the only way was to upgrade it.
With the new Upper Realm System, it was really difficult to do anything without money.
However, the only fortunate thing was that the Disciple Store could be upgraded with achievement points, and there was no need to use contribution points or reputation points.
"Sigh."
Jun Changxiao shook his head and said, "I thought achievement points were worthless, but it turns out that they were waiting for this."
The System said, "To be exact, the Upper Realm System pays more attention to Sect missions, not only to the purchase of goods after completion, but also to let them participate in the construction of the Sect, and then benefit themselves."
"That makes sense."
In the Lower Realm, when Sect missions appeared, it was nothing more than earning achievement points to upgrade the Sect, and thus gain more functions. However, the activation condition had to be full, so the disciples had a long blank period.
Now that the new Sect missions would be refreshed at a fixed time, it seemed to mean that they would never be completed. This undoubtedly required the disciples to work hard at all times, and then accumulate more achievement points.
In the Lower Realm, a sect might be able to rely on cheats to carry it forward, but in the Upper Realm, everyone would need to work together.
"How much does it cost to upgrade the Disciple's Store?"
"Ten million."
Jun Changxiao facepalmed and said, "The Achievement Value and Contribution Value systems have both collapsed!"
The system said, "If the host thinks it's too much, you can use 10,000 Reputation Points instead."
"Scram!"
Jun Changxiao roared.
…
Because the Disciple's Merchant Shop required Achievement Points to level up, Jun Changxiao ordered that as long as they had time, they must complete missions. He even considered whether or not to set a monthly mission completion quota.
"What are you thinking about?"
Rose Of Flowers came in from outside.
Jun Changxiao came back to his senses. Just as he was about to speak, he heard her say, "I knocked on the door, but you didn't hear me."
Alright then.
Gou Sheng had no choice but to swallow the words "Why didn't you knock before coming in?" and said, "I was thinking about whether or not I should let my disciples complete enough missions every month."
"Has my husband finally figured it out?"
"Figured what out?"
Jun Changxiao was dumbfounded.
Rose Of Flowers said, "During my time in the Sect of All Times, I didn't feel like a sect, but more like a big family."
"That's right."
Jun Changxiao said proudly, "That's what I'm happy to see."
Whether it was the former Iron Bone or the current Sect of All Times, he had never treated it as a force. He had always treated it as a family. He was the parent, and his disciples were the children. He would take care of them as they grew up.
Rose Of Flowers said, "In this cruel world, disciples need to adapt to the harsh environment, and have the courage to spread their wings and soar into the sky. They shouldn't always stay at home and live a life of being fed."
"What are you trying to say?" Jun Changxiao frowned and said.
Rose Of Flowers walked over and said, "Are you interested in learning about my past?"
"Not interested!" Jun Changxiao said.
"You don't mean what you say."
Rose Of Flowers took another step forward. Regardless of whether the other party agreed or not, she directly used the Soul Race's secret technique to fuse with him.
It's coming, it's coming!
Lord Rose!
This time, the two of them fused. Jun Changxiao's hair did not turn green. Instead, his soul seemed to pass through layers of space and was placed in a dark place similar to a cliff. There were many children about ten years old fighting with all their might inside.
They were not strong, but they fought very crazily.
There was a high platform in the central area with a lot of food placed on it, indicating that only those who rushed over could get it.
Jun Changxiao turned into a soul and stood where he was, watching as a bystander. Until he found a girl with disheveled hair in a corner. Although she was not tall and still had a childishness, she looked very similar to Rose Of Flowers. So, he blurted out, "Her daughter?"
"That's when I was young!"
"..."
Jun Changxiao's mouth twitched and said, "You brought me to your childhood memories?"
"Yes."
"..."
Jun Changxiao was speechless.
If you want to play memory killing, why do you have to bring me along!
The System said, "This chapter is going to be lame again."
Jun Changxiao kept staring at the young Rose Of Flowers who seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world. He said, "It feels like there is not much difference between childhood and adulthood."
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The teenagers had gone crazy for the food. They fought for a long time inside and only stopped when they were exhausted.
"Is there still no winner?"
A cold voice came from above. "Then we can only wait for tomorrow."
"Whoosh!"
The food on the stone platform disappeared into thin air.
Then, the memory fast-forwarded. Jun Changxiao was still standing in the same place. The teenagers were fighting in the dark place. Although some of them occasionally got food, most of them were starving.
"It's too cruel."
"If we can't survive here, how can we face the crueler reality?"
"Okay."
Jun Changxiao said, "Why do you keep standing in the corner?"
"Because I'm not hungry."
"..."
This reason made Gou Sheng unable to refute.
However, after a few more battles, the young Rose Of Flowers finally made a move.
Although she was one of the few girls in the experience, she was more ruthless than boys of the same age. She could easily poke the eyes, kick the crotch, and other means.
"..."
Gou Sheng felt a chill down his spine. He said to himself, "I have to be careful, lest she plot against me!"
Because the young Rose Of Flowers was extremely strong, she won the final victory in the fight for food.
Next.
The memory fast-forwarded again.
As long as she participated in the battle, it would end in victory.
"Whoosh!"
In order not to use memory killing to make up the number of words, the Rose Of Flowers separated from Jun Changxiao's body. The latter immediately returned to reality. After a short silence, he asked, "How long have you been there?"
"A year."
"What if you can't get food?"
"Die."
Jun Changxiao fell into a short silence again. Then, he turned to look at her and said, "You asked me to look at your memories. Are you telling me that people have to experience cruel torture to live in this world?"
"Natural selection, the survival of the fittest. This is an eternal law."
"..."
"Husband, you care too much about your disciples. You're worried that they will encounter danger. But if they don't experience wind and rain, how can they grow up in the Upper Realm?"
"..."
"You just asked me if I want my disciples to complete a certain number of tasks every month. I believe that after looking at my childhood memories, you should already have the answer in your heart."
"I have."
Jun Changxiao said seriously.
A smile appeared on the Rose Of Flowers's face.
"However."
Jun Changxiao paused and said, "I won't train my disciples in the way you Soul Race do, because it's not only in desperate situations that they can really grow up. In fact, there are many gentle ways to achieve the same effect!"
The Rose Of Flowers said, "I'm just letting my husband refer to it."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"Wait a minute." Jun Changxiao stopped her. After pausing for a long time, he said, "Actually … you were quite cute when you were young."
The Rose Of Flowers was stunned at the door. After a while, she looked back and said with a smile, "Husband, are you praising me?"
Where was he!
Where was he!
Jun Changxiao had disappeared from the study. He was in the hall, covering his red face and roaring in his heart, "How could I say such shameful words!"
