Although the Martial Arts Conference had gone through a huge storm, it was still a daunting experience.
Chen Rong received the impartation of the "Shang Qing Treasure Tome" and became a candidate for the next School Master. However, if there was a change in the position of the next School Master and she did not have the qualifications to inherit it, Chen Rong would have to abolish her cultivation of the Shang Qing Treasure Tome when the next School Master was replaced.
Of course, the possibility of this was very small. Unless Chen Rong did something that angered the heavens and people, she would definitely become the next School Master.
Bai Xiaowen did not participate in the subsequent ceremony of Chen Rong receiving the tome. Instead, he strolled back to his room.
"I'll stay and talk to Chen Rong one last time. Then, I'll be able to complete the mission and earn a sum of spirit crystals … I wonder what kind of mission reward Chen Rong will give me."
500 spirit crystals was the reward for the side mission according to the rules of the spiritual realm. It had nothing to do with Chen Rong's personal reward.
Under the rules of reality, the favorability, affection, and faction reputation of the people in the spiritual realm were all hidden. They would not be displayed at all. Therefore, there was no main mission of "Join a faction and reach XX reputation".
This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for evolvers who liked to woo girls. They could not judge how far they had progressed through the affection level.
However, Bai Xiaowen did not care. He was usually the target of being woo.
The fun of a handsome man was that simple and boring.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen was still careful and prepared for both sides.
…
That night, Chen Rong came to look for Bai Xiaowen. However, she did not come alone. Behind her was a middle-aged man with a pale face and no beard who looked like a eunuch.
The elder of Shangqing school, Tang Ren!
Bai Xiaowen's face revealed a hint of surprise.
Chen Rong smiled and said, "Brother Lu, now that the storm has passed, I naturally have to report the situation to the elders in the school. Congratulations. Several elders have heard of your achievements and are very grateful. They want you to stay in Shangqing school as a guest. "
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes slightly and cupped his hands. "Elder Tang, Miss Chen, I still have matters to attend to …"
Chen Rong's face revealed a look of regret. "I see. Brother Lu not only solved the serial murder case this time, but also helped our Shangqing school to destroy the conspiracy of the Black Sky Cult, I really don't know how to thank you. Oh right, I'll give you a storage bracelet with a larger capacity. "
As he spoke, Chen Rong took out an emerald bracelet and handed it to Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen had shown his storage ability in front of Chen Rong before — it was actually 10 cubic meters of personal storage space. This storage space was still too small for evolvers.
Bai Xiaowen didn't directly mention that his storage space was too small, so he was a little surprised that Chen Rong took the initiative to give him a storage bracelet.
If he had observed Bai Xiaowen's expression and learned of Bai Xiaowen's inner needs … then Chen Rong's strategy was really terrifying.
Bai Xiaowen took the storage bracelet and said with a smile, "Thank you, Miss Chen."
The Eye of Evolution scanned the storage bracelet and obtained the basic information.
[Storage Bracelet: Gold Quality, storage device, volume 100 cubic meters. The length, width, and height of the storage space can be adjusted, but the volume will not change.]
The volume of a Gold Quality storage device was ten times larger than that of an evolver's storage space. For a powerful evolver, no treasure was more important than a storage device with a large capacity.
The carving of the storage bracelet itself was also very exquisite. There was a lifelike relief of a dragon and a phoenix on it.
[Hey, there seems to be something inside.] Bai Xiaowen's heart skipped a beat. When he scanned the storage bracelet with his spiritual sense, he saw that it wasn't empty.
However, Bai Xiaowen looked thoughtfully at Tang Ren standing next to him and didn't say anything.
Just as Chen Rong gave the reward, the spirit realm's rules also notified him that his mission was completed. The completion rate was 104%, and he was rewarded with 700 spirit crystals.
[This … the completion rate can exceed 100%?]
Bai Xiaowen discovered a new continent.
The super brain ran for 0.1 seconds, and Bai Xiaowen figured out why there was a completion rate of 104%.
The mission's requirement was only to investigate the serial murder case and find the real murderer.
In other words, the spirit realm's rules determined that the Black Sky Cult hiding in the Shangqing school was too powerful, so powerful that the person who received the mission — Bai Xiaowen — couldn't defeat them. Therefore, he was only given an investigation mission and not an annihilation mission.
As for Bai Xiaowen, not only did he find the real murderer, but he also destroyed the Black Sky Cult's plan and greatly changed the direction of the plot between the good and evil factions in Shao Wei's plane …
Destroying the Ten Thousand Soul Banner was of utmost importance.
Therefore, the spirit realm's rules determined that Bai Xiaowen had "exceeded" the requirements of the mission, mainly because he did well in the additional questions.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen probably didn't get all the points for the "basic questions".
If he wanted all the basic points, he should find the real murderer of Zhou Wu and kill him, or capture him alive.
Bai Xiaowen had already guessed which person from the Black Sky Cult killed Zhou Wu. It was most likely the Black Sky Cult's Right Enforcer — Sheji. From the aura of her spiritual power, Sheji's aura belonged to the extremely feminine type, and once she got close, it would be impossible to guard against her.
Zhou Wu had already taken precautions, but his protective elemental energy was as if it didn't exist, and was easily penetrated. It was definitely Sheji's method.
The Left Enforcer, the Thousand-Armed Butcher, Qiu Zhenli's methods were overbearing, and to be honest, he wasn't suitable for this kind of assassination job.
For example, if this hero's mission was a test, killing the real murderer Sheji alone should be able to get the first part of the basic test a full 100 points; exposing and destroying the Black Sky Cult's plot at the back could be an additional 10 points.
Bai Xiaowen's basic test was about 95%, which was the perfect baseline; but he basically got all the additional points (or most of them), which was why he had a final score of 104%.
Strictly speaking, Bai Xiaowen had used a trick, relying on the Eye of Evolution and his True Inner Force Priority of 8 points, he had successfully controlled Lu Sanding (Lu Buchen). Not only had he learned of most of the Black Sky Cult's plans, he had also obtained a chess piece that he could use to infiltrate the enemy.
If it were other evolvers, the most they could do was kill or capture Lu Sanding, but this would alert the Black Sky Cult.
Want to be like Bai Xiaowen, destroy the Soul Refining Formation and turn the tide? It was basically impossible. Didn't you see that so many Lord-class Shangqing school elders present were suppressed by the Soul Refining Formation to the point that their strength was greatly reduced?
Therefore, the 104% completion rate this time was almost impossible to replicate. The final reward was 700 spirit crystals, as well as a large storage bracelet of Chen Rong's personal reward. It was quite a harvest.
Tang Ren looked at the storage bracelet Chen Rong gave to Bai Xiaowen, squinted slightly, and said, "Young hero Lu, the person who broke into the center of the demonic formation and broke the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, was it you in disguise?"
Bai Xiaowen's mind turned, and he shook his head, "No, it was a puppet I controlled."
Tang Ren nodded slightly, "Young hero Lu's manipulation methods are quite impressive. That puppet should have been taken away by Young hero Lu as well? "
"That's right." Bai Xiaowen said happily.
Tang Ren continued, "After the Ten Thousand Soul Banner was destroyed, an evil item appeared, which was the condensation of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner's essence. It must have fallen into Young hero Lu's hands."
Hearing the two words "evil item", Bai Xiaowen knew that things were not good.
What would come would come, and that trace of worry from before had indeed become a reality.
Bai Xiaowen's face did not have any hesitation, and he directly nodded, saying happily, "Yes."
Tang Ren's eyes flashed, and he said, "Young hero Lu, that evil item is the condensation of thousands of resentful souls, extremely evil. If it were to spread to the outside world, it would definitely cause a huge disaster! "
