Odd-job worker
"Brother Gu Xuan, do you know the importance of ranking? Why did you accept Chu Lin's challenge? "
In the room, Liu Yue 'er asked Gu Xuan angrily.
"Although you have to accept a challenge a month later, there will be weaker people challenging you. For example, there will be 170 or 160 people. With your strength, you can easily defeat these people and get a month's worth of resources and an excellent training place for a month. How valuable are these things?"
Liu Yue 'er sat down with a dejected look on her face. "Now that you've lost, not only did you lose the treasure points, you even lost the best cultivation formation. With Brother Gu Xuan's special condition, the 131st cultivation formation is completely useless. It will take a very long time."
"This matter …" Gu Xuan smiled. Just as he was about to explain, Liu Yue 'er angrily interrupted him.
"This is the only way to lower your ranking. I will think of a way to get Big Brother Gu Xuan a good place to cultivate. However, if Big Brother Gu Xuan makes any decisions in the future, can you ask for Yue 'er's opinion first?"
"Alright, alright! I'll definitely ask you in the future. "Gu Xuan also waved his hand and begged for mercy.
"Hmm, then I'll let you off this time. Now, Brother Gu Xuan, follow me to look for Old Man Zi Feng and ask him to arrange a position for you." Liu Yue 'er nodded her head angrily.
Today, when she came to look for Gu Xuan, she discovered that the owner of pavilion number 53 had changed. After asking around, she found out that Gu Xuan had accepted Chu Lin's challenge. Now that the two of them had switched places, it naturally meant that Gu Xuan had lost.
In her anger, Liu Yue 'er also reprimanded Gu Xuan. She was originally calm, but when it came to Gu Xuan's matters, she seemed to nitpick. Gu Xuan himself was not used to it, and he did not even have the chance to explain.
The Purple Wind Martial Sect was the Realm Suppressing Emissary of the Ying Tian Sect. They were in charge of suppressing the Evil Spirit True Fire and would only occasionally participate in the internal affairs of the academy. Thus, they spent most of their time near the Realm Suppressing Monument.
The Boundary Suppressing Stele was located in the center of Heaven's Response Peak, which was also under the academy.
The Evil Spirit True Fire was suppressed at the center of the mountain peak, constantly absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, causing the energy of heaven and earth in the entire Yingtian Academy to be absolutely abundant.
In fact, even the great array formation within the core student lofts was provided by the Evil Spirit True Fire. In a situation where Heavenly Flames were extremely rare, Earth Flames were already incomparably precious treasures. As for the Evil Spirit True Fire, it was ranked second amongst Earth Flames and was even more precious than some Heavenly Flames!
This was also the reason why the Purple Wind Martial Sect was so sensitive when Gu Xuan revealed that he wanted to take the flame. Letting him suppress the Evil True Fire here also gave him a chance to subdue the Evil True Fire. If Gu Xuan absorbed the flame, then the Purple Wind Martial Sect would have nothing to do with it.
The two of them passed through a winding underground tunnel and arrived at a spacious room. There was a huge pitch-black stone tablet in the middle of the room.
"This should be the World Suppressing Stele."
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows. He could feel a terrifying power from the huge black stone tablet. The power was evil and extremely violent, as though it would rush out of the stone tablet at any time.
"Evil Spirit True Fire!"
Gu Xuan's eyes were filled with eagerness. With the Heavenly Flames, he could completely subdue the Evil Spirit True Fire in the Black Rank. At that time, not only would his cultivation level jump to the Honorable Rank, but he could also rely on the Evil Spirit True Fire itself to directly kill Ancestor Rank warriors.
Soon, Gu Xuan calmed his mind. Although the Evil Spirit True Fire was good, it was abnormally difficult to obtain it. Moreover, just one chance to subdue the Evil Spirit True Fire would cost one million treasure points. This was already a sky-high price that Gu Xuan could only look up to.
"Purple Wind Old Man."
Seeing the Purple Wind Martial Sect sitting beside the World Suppressing Stele with his eyes closed, Liu Yue 'er directly called out. The latter opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Why? Did you miss this old man?"
"Hmph, who wants to miss you!" Liu Yue 'er curled her lips, "I'm here to pick a servant with Brother Gu Xuan. If you have any good servants, quickly take them out for Brother Gu Xuan to pick."
"Pick a servant?" The Purple Wind Martial Ancestor was stunned as he sized up Gu Xuan. He clearly remembered that Gu Xuan had obtained over 3,700 Treasure Points from the Mountain and River Diagram. Could it be that he had used them all in one go and still needed to earn Treasure Points as a laborer?
However, he was too lazy to ask about Gu Xuan's matters. Gu Xuan had too many secrets. Being able to erupt with Ancestor Realm strength and being able to devour a large amount of Yuan Qi essence of the world was not something an ordinary warrior could do. More importantly, Gu Xuan had rejected his guidance. If he were to ask too much, he would be asking for a snub.
The interspatial ring on the Purple Wind Martial Ancestor's hand flashed, and a scroll appeared. The Purple Wind Martial Ancestor handed the scroll to Gu Xuan and said, "These are all the servants in the Yingtian Academy. You can choose as you wish."
"Alright." Gu Xuan nodded his head and received the scroll.
The number of servants on the scroll was astonishing. There were hundreds of them densely packed together. There were all kinds of servants and the rewards they received were also very different.
"Clean the academy's outer courtyard. Ten treasure points per month."
"Help teacher test the power of flames. Thirty treasure points per month."
"Repair the academy's branches. Fifteen treasure points per month."
…
Most of the servants' rewards were between five to fifty treasure points. The higher the reward, the more complicated the task. Many servants who were paid thirty to forty treasure points had to waste their cultivation time to complete the task.
There were even some special servants who had to endure great pain to complete the task. They might even lose their strength and even their lives might be in danger.
However, such a generous reward made many students scramble for it. After all, the value of treasure points was no small matter. Thirty treasure points was almost equivalent to a hundred thousand gold coins in a dynasty!
A hundred thousand gold coins was only a few days of cultivation time. As long as they weren't monstrous geniuses, they would give it a try. However, whether or not they could be chosen would depend on their ability.
Gu Xuan's gaze quickly swept across the scroll. Those that were too strange or required too much time were automatically skipped by him.
"Eh!"
After a moment, Gu Xuan finally found a task that interested him.
"Help the Grade Four Alchemist Zong Qi do odd jobs. Three hundred treasure points per month!"
