As they spoke, Wutian and the others arrived before the counter.
The counter was similarly constructed from pitch black rocks, and it was half the height of a person.
Behind the counter sat a white clothed young woman with a delicate appearance. She had her head lowered as she looked at an old book before her, and she seemed to be calculating something. There was a tightly shut door on the wall 30m behind the young woman.
The white clothed young woman didn't raise her head when she saw someone arrive, and she directly asked. "Speak frankly."
Her voice was extremely cold and without the slightest emotion!
Yuan Doufeng cupped his hands and said, "Young Miss Qiu Yu, I'm a One Star Hunter, Yuan Doufeng. The purpose of this trip is to bring these juniors to receive their Battle Merit Tokens."
As soon as he finished speaking, he signaled to Wutian and the others with his eyes.
Wutian and the others understood, and they glanced at the white clothed young woman before removing their Battle Merit Tokens from their waists and placing them on the counter.
Only at this moment did the white clothed young woman raise her head, and their pupils constricted slightly when they saw the Battle Merit Tokens on her chest.
This seemingly delicate young woman was actually a Nine Star Hunter!
The white clothed young woman glanced briefly at the eight Battle Merit Tokens before her gaze moved to size up Wutian and the others.
"Monk?"
The white clothed young woman's eyebrow knit when she looked at Gu Tian, and she said with bewilderment, "I don't remember there being a monk in Beixuan City. Speak truthfully, where did you come from?"
Gu Tian pressed his palms together and smiled. "Amitabha. I've been tempering outside since I was young, and I've been accompanying ferocious beasts and flying beasts. I only returned a few days ago, so it's normal that Benefactor doesn't know."
"Is that so?" The white clothed young woman expressed her doubt.
Gu Tian nodded and said, "A disciple of the Buddhist Sect never lies."
The white clothed young woman glanced at Gu Tian with doubt before moving her gaze towards Wutian, and a wisp of surprise instantly appeared on her beautiful face as she asked in a probing manner. "Little Brother, may I know how old you are?"
Wutian's body stiffened when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer for a time.
As for Gu Tian and the others, they moved their gazes away and pretended as if nothing had happened, but the smiling expression in their eyes was clearly visible.
Yuan Doufeng asked carefully, "Miss Qiuyu, I don't think age has anything to do with the Battle Merit Medallion."
The white-clothed woman retracted her gaze and coldly said, "There really isn't any relationship. But, there is a cultivation limit to applying for a merit token. One must reach the Divine Transformation realm before they have the qualifications. Now, I seriously suspect that he is nothing more than a rotten brat."
Wutian lightly said, "Then, as long as I can prove that my cultivation is at the Divine Transformation realm or above, that's enough, right?"
The white-robed woman nodded.
Boom!
In the next moment, an aura rapidly spread out from Wutian's body. It was neither strong nor weak, just at the early Divine Transformation realm.
Seeing this, the white-clothed woman's beautiful eyes immediately shone with a strange light.
In the Eastern Domain, there was no lack of powerhouses, nor was there a lack of geniuses. A Divine Transformation realm cultivator could only be considered at the lowest level. Only an early Peerless realm cultivator could barely stand on the stage.
However, she had stayed in the war merit temple for tens of thousands of years and yet she had never seen a lousy 11-12 year old child reach the initial Divine Transformation realm.
Just how heaven-defying was this talent?
"If I introduce this lousy brat to the two City Lords, perhaps the two of them will rush to receive him as a disciple. At that time, the two of them might be happy and reward me with several tens of thousands of essence tokens."
The white-shirted woman pondered in her mind. Her expression finally changed. She stood up and explained with a smile, "There are three kinds of Battle Merit Badges. One is a bracelet, one is a ring, and the last one is a badge. Which one do you need?"
"There are so many things to pay attention to?"
Wutian and the others were surprised but they didn't reveal their thoughts. After a moment of silence, they listed out the types they wanted.
Wutian and the other men all chose a ring. Only Yun Yuting chose a bracelet.
"Alright, please wait a moment."
The white-clothed woman nodded with a smile. Her attitude was completely different from before. She picked up their identity badges, turned around, and walked to the front of the door. She pushed open the tightly shut door, and slowly walked in.
Along with a creak, the door closed tightly once more.
Gu Tian glanced at Wutian and teased. "Amitabha. According to my observation, that female benefactor is extremely interested in Little Benefactor Wutian. She's probably taken a fancy to Little Benefactor, so Little Benefactor should take extra precautions against her."
Wutian rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Gu Tian, if we really count, then you're not much older than me."
Gu Tian nodded and said seriously, "I can't deny that this is a fact. But I'm an adult now, whereas what about you? You're just a lousy brat. If you wear a pair of pants, then you're probably not even a lousy brat. So it's very reasonable to call you Little Benefactor. "
"Pfft!"
Yun Yuting was directly amused.
But in her heart, no matter if it was Wutian or Gu Tian, both of them weren't good people. One was shameless and despicable, the other spoke of benevolence, righteousness, and morality, yet his methods were extremely despicable.
Wutian shook his head and didn't say anything else. In terms of bickering, even if there were ten of him, he still wouldn't be Gu Tian's match. He knew his own limits.
After looking around, Wutian's gaze finally landed on a stone tablet. The stone tablet was one meter long and completely black. It was located at the corner of the hall. On the front of the stone tablet, there were seven large golden words engraved — Beixuan City, Battle Zone 1!
Beside the stone tablet, there was a door of light. The interior of the door was blood red, like a giant python with its mouth wide open, waiting for someone to enter. It was a bit terrifying.
"Could that be the transmission channel?" Wutian mumbled.
The gazes of Gu Tian and the others were also attracted as they curiously sized up the door of light.
"That's the transmission channel. After entering, you'll directly arrive at Battle Zone 1."
Yuan Doufeng secretly explained with a sound transmission, "Battle Zone 1 is extremely vast. The overall strength of the mutated life forms is between the initial and peak of the Divine Transformation realm. Thus, many Divine Transformation realm cultivators who haven't become hunters will choose to go there to temper themselves. They can also accumulate battle merits and exchange them for a Hunter's Medal."
Wutian nodded and casually asked, "Can those with a Hunter's Medal enter Battle Zone 1?"
Yuan Doufeng said, "Of course. Moreover, many people will choose to enter Battle Zone 1 and raise their rank to nine star before entering Lower Mystic City's battle zone."
"Why?" Everyone was puzzled.
"Because in the entire Eastern Region, Battle Zone 1 has the lowest strength of the mutated life forms. Although killing a mutated life form only gives one point of battle merits, it's not life-threatening."
"What? Killing a mutated life form only gives one point of battle merits? "Wutian was bewildered, feeling that this was inconceivable.
Yuan Doufeng shook his head and said, "Not entirely. One point of battle merits is only for ordinary mutated life forms. Killing a commander level intelligent life form will give you ten points of battle merits."
Wutian asked, "Is there a large difference between mutated life forms and commander level intelligent life forms?"
Yuan Doufeng smiled faintly and explained with a sound transmission, "There are differences between commander level intelligent life forms and mutated life forms. The only difference is that intelligent life forms are no less intelligent than humans and are very difficult to deal with. On the other hand, mutated life forms rely on their instincts to kill."
"So that's how it is." Wutian was enlightened.
The meaning of Yuan Doufeng's words was very clear. Intelligent life forms might not necessarily be stronger than mutated life forms. Some intelligent life forms might be weaker than mutated life forms, but the difference was between those with intelligence and those without.
After pondering for a moment, Wutian asked again, "Then how many battle merits do I need to exchange for a Hunter's Medal?"
"Sigh! A lot. "Yuan Doufeng sighed deeply, his rugged face full of helplessness.
According to him, exchanging for a one-star Hunter's Medal required ten thousand battle merits, and so on. A nine-star Hunter's Medal required ninety thousand battle merits.
Hearing this number, even Wutian and the others, who were full of confidence, could not help but gasp.
One must know that killing a mutated life form only gave one point of battle merits. If one wanted to get a one-star Hunter's Medal, one would need to kill ten thousand mutated life forms!
Even if they were intelligent life forms, one would need to kill a thousand of them.
They finally understood why Yuan Doufeng was only a one-star Hunter even though he was at the early stage of the Unparalleled Realm.
"There are many ways to accumulate battle merits. For example, if you're lucky and find a rare treasure, you can exchange it for tens of thousands of battle merits.
However, after hundreds of thousands of years, all the treasures in the first battle zone have been looted. You can only rely on killing mutated life forms to accumulate battle merits.
Fortunately, there are many mutated life forms in the battle zone, and you can't kill all of them. Unfortunately, the mutated life forms are very powerful. It's okay to deal with one mutated life form of the same level, but it's a bit difficult to deal with two, not to mention intelligent life forms. "Yuan Doufeng sighed.
Hearing this, Wutian and the others looked at each other, and a subtle smile appeared in their eyes.
According to Yuan Doufeng, it was indeed difficult to obtain battle merits. However, for the few of them, who could kill thousands of mutated life forms with a wave of their hands, it was not difficult to become a nine-star Hunter.
After that, Yuan Doufeng revealed again that there were no trading pavilions or auction houses in Beixuan City. If you wanted to exchange for treasures, you had to go to the War Merit Temple to exchange for battle merits.
Therefore, in the East Region, battle merits were equivalent to a form of currency. The only difference was that once battle merits were recorded in the information, they could not be converted to other forms of currency.
However, no matter what, nothing was absolute.
In the five cities, there were many underground trading places.
The so-called underground trading place was a place where bartering took place.
For example, if Wutian obtained a supreme treasure that was useless to him, he could take it to the underground trading place and exchange it for useful treasures with others.
The premise was that the value of the items exchanged by the two parties was the same.
After a while, the door opposite the counter was opened with a creak. The woman in white walked out slowly and said with a smile, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Then, she put seven black rings, a green jade bracelet, and the identity medallions of Wutian and the others on the counter and said with a smile, "I've prepared everything for you. I think you know how to use them, so I won't explain more. I just hope you can come back alive after entering the first battle zone."
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Qiu Yu." Wutian cupped his hands and pretended to understand. Then, he put away the identity medallion and looked at the black rings.
"Little brother, I've just reported your situation to the two castellans. If you can come back from the No. 1 theater of operations alive and become a nine-star hunter, the two castellans will consider taking you as their pro-disciple."
Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded in Wutian's mind, which stunned him.
