Just as Su Changqing stretched lazily, a young martialist in white outer disciple attire approached quickly.

This person was named Wang Defa, a disciple from the Mission Hall.

The Mission Hall was the place in the sect specifically for issuing tasks, and completing tasks could earn contribution points.

Contribution points were the currency for internal transactions in the Tai Xuan Sect, even more useful than spirit stones, because all exchanges for martial arts and pills in the sect's Scripture Pavilion used contribution points.

Martialists below the Dharma Form Realm had to complete one task each month, or face punishment from the sect.

Even Su Changqing, as a personal disciple of the Peak Master, couldn't escape this rule.

"Got it, I'll go in a few days."

Su Changqing waved his hand nonchalantly.

Wang Defa showed a somewhat fawning smile:

"Alright then, see you later, Brother Su. I'll take my leave now."

With that, he turned and left Lingyun Peak.

Among the Nine Peaks of Tai Xuan Sect, Lingyun Peak was the weakest, as Gu Xiran recruited the fewest disciples. Besides Su Changqing, there were only two senior sisters on the peak.

However, these two senior sisters had recently gone to complete tasks and were not in the sect.

But regardless, Su Changqing was still a personal disciple, a position of high status.

Currently, Su Changqing's cultivation level had already broken through to the Late Mortal Transformation Realm, greatly enhancing his strength. Coupled with the support of an Immortal-grade Technique and the Sky-Overlord Body, even martialists in the Wheel Sea Realm might not be his match.

However, Su Changqing's full strength couldn't be completely unleashed.

He had the techniques and physique, but lacked martial arts.

"I remember personal disciples can choose two martial arts from the Scripture Pavilion each month."

Su Changqing murmured to himself.

"In that case, let's go take a look at the Scripture Pavilion."

Reborn in the Martial World, he was quite curious about the martial arts in the Scripture Pavilion.

After tidying up a bit, Su Changqing left Lingyun Peak and headed straight for the Scripture Pavilion.

***

The Scripture Pavilion of Tai Xuan Sect was seven stories high. Ordinary outer disciples could only enter the first floor to practice Mortal-grade techniques and martial arts.

As a personal disciple, Su Changqing could enter up to the fourth floor.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Su Changqing? What brings you to the Scripture Pavilion?"

Before Su Changqing could step into the Scripture Pavilion, a mocking voice suddenly reached his ears. He frowned slightly and turned around.

The speaker was a burly man in outer disciple attire, with a dark complexion and a heavy blade in hand. Beside him was a graceful woman, fairly attractive, of average looks.

"And you are?"

Su Changqing really had no impression of this guy.

"Oh, Brother Su really forgets things easily. Three months ago, we both entered Tai Xuan Sect. After becoming a personal disciple of the Peak Master, you forgot?"

To read the uncut version, go to [pawread.com].

Upon hearing this, a memory surfaced in Su Changqing's mind.

This person was named Li Kai. Three months ago, he and Su Changqing entered Tai Xuan Sect together. He was the top entrant among the new disciples, strong enough to be taken into the Main Peak by the Sect Leader, but was still just an outer disciple.

However, Su Changqing was favored by Gu Xiran, not only entering Lingyun Peak but also being accepted as a personal disciple, elevating his status significantly.

This made the new disciples quite envious.

After all, Gu Xiran was not only one of the Nine Peak Masters but also exceptionally graceful and one of the most beautiful on the continent.

Who wouldn't want such a master?

Especially Li Kai, who, as the top entrant, was surpassed by Su Changqing.

He had also wanted to join Lingyun Peak as a personal disciple but was rejected by Gu Xiran.

The reason was simple...

Gu Xiran was a face-judger.

Anyone unattractive was not accepted.

Indeed, Su Changqing got in because of his looks.

So facing Su Changqing, Li Kai felt a bit sour.

Why did you become a personal disciple of the Peak Master when we entered the sect together?

Just because you're handsome?

Damn.

Is there no justice?

"Oh, so it's Junior Brother Li Kai."

Su Changqing's lips curled into a mocking smile.

Hearing the mockery in Su Changqing's words, Li Kai clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with jealousy.

"Hmph, I heard Brother Su has been in the sect for quite some time, and as a personal disciple of the Peak Master, your cultivation is still at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Doesn't seem like your talent is that great."

Li Kai taunted.

When he entered the sect, he was already at the Early Mortal Transformation Realm, and after over three months of hard cultivation, he had smoothly broken through to the Mid-stage.

Among the new disciples, he was undoubtedly the top.

Even some older disciples were no match for him.

It was said that he had even caught the attention of an elder from the Main Peak, who intended to take him as a personal disciple.

Su Changqing: "..."

Looking at Li Kai's smug expression, Su Changqing really wanted to tell him that he was not only a disciple of the Peak Master but that even the Peak Master...

In terms of seniority, you should kneel and call me Peak Master Husband.

[Ding! Detected that the host is being mocked]

 

[Option 1: Ignore it, endure silently, and wait to amaze everyone later, slapping faces hard. Reward: Hold Breath Skill]

 

[Option 2: Don't take it, start a fight at the slightest disagreement, teach him a lesson. Reward: Mid-grade Spiritual Martial Art "Overlord Fist"]

 

[Option 3: A true villain must kill the heart. Reward: Purple Pole Spiritual Eye]

Oh, this third option is interesting.

Killing the heart.

Heh, I like it.

"I choose three!"

Su Changqing's lips curved into a smile, then he looked at the female disciple beside Li Kai.

If he remembered correctly, that female disciple was also new to the sect, under the Spirit Medicine Peak, and was an outer disciple with not much strength, only at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Judging by the situation, she seemed to have latched onto Li Kai.

In that case, this would be easy.

"This must be Junior Sister Zhang Hui."

Su Changqing said with a smile.

Zhang Hui was visibly stunned, not expecting Su Changqing to speak to her.

She quickly nodded: "Yes, Brother Su, we met when we entered the sect."

Although they entered the sect together, Zhang Hui was very respectful.

After all, Su Changqing's status was quite extraordinary now.

"Indeed, when I first saw Junior Sister Zhang, I was amazed by your beauty and felt drawn to you. A few days ago, my master gave me dozens of bottles of Qi-Boosting Pills, and I can't finish them all by myself. I wonder if Junior Sister Zhang would be interested in helping me with some."

Li Kai: "????"

What the hell?

Dozens of bottles of Qi-Boosting Pills!

You should know, Qi-Boosting Pills are third-grade pills, greatly beneficial for those in the Qi Refining and Mortal Transformation Realms.

A single bottle of Qi-Boosting Pills is extremely valuable. Normally, an outer disciple could only receive one Qi-Boosting Pill a month.

And Su Changqing just casually offered dozens of bottles?

Is this a joke?

At this moment, Zhang Hui's eyes lit up.

She had some looks, and in her original family, she was considered outstanding, so she had some confidence in her appearance.

She glanced at Li Kai beside her, then at Su Changqing, and in an instant, she was tempted.
