16 side dishes with porridge and noodles, made with the best ingredients available.

Having such a wonderful breakfast, everyone was pleased.

Gu Qing Shan, Qing Rou, and Wan Er tidied up together and prepared spirit tea for everyone.

“No need to make tea for me, I’ll be cultivating”

Qin Xiao Lou stood up and patted Gu Qing Shan on his shoulder.

He went out of Bai Hua hall, flew back onto the kite in the sky, and then settled down, quickly entering a meditative state.

“What is he—-?”

Leng Tian Xing couldn’t help but ask.

Gu Qing Shan quickly explained: “Ah, this is a method of cultivation in our sect”

“Unable to move a single step for anything but cultivation, your sect’s serious attitude really does leave one in awe” Leng Tian Xing praised.

None of Bai Hua sect’s disciples answered him.

“Very well, it’s now time for official business” Bai Hua Fairy declared.

“To be exact, Qing Shan, Ning Yue Chan as well as Leng Tian Xing——- this affair concerns the three of you”

Bai Hua Fairy continued: “I, as well as the Monk of Sorrow, General Gong Sun and the various sect leaders, have discussed among ourselves and decided, among the young generation of our cultivation world, the three of you will be selected as our world’s novice representatives”

“Leng Tian Xing, as a You Ji General, before coming here you should have already gotten the necessary supplies and resources”

“Ning Yue Chan, as a Ding Yuan General, you’ve always been at the frontline, the one to lead your troops, your total accumulated merits have earned you the rank of Yong Zhen General”

“Ning Yue Chan, through the battles so far, your armor has been greatly damaged and have applied to be replaced, now I will reissue you a new set of Yong Zhen General armor”

Saying so, Bai Hua Fairy took out a completely new set of armor and lightly sent it over.

The armor hovered in front of Ning Yue Chan.

Ning Yue Chan clasped her fist: “Thank you, Saint”

“Try it on” Xie Dao Ling nodded and smiled.

Everyone couldn’t help but stare at the set of Yong Zhen General armor.

——–it was a snow-white set of female metal armor, embossed with countless complicated runes, each component finely crafted with meticulous care and precision.

Ning Yue Chan struck the armor with her palm.

The armor scattered in the air into its components as they circled around Ning Yue Chan and quickly equipped themselves onto her.

A snow-white Blade and a snow-white armor.

Right now, Ning Yue Chan exuded not only the solemnity and majesty of a general but also the beauty of a female.

She moved around a bit to test the armor.

After a few moments, she happily smiled.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought as he commented: “We were never able to forge armors of this caliber before”

Ning Yue Chan replied: “Of course, after we merged with Shen Wu world, we learned their methods of Smithing, then your Shifu further combined them with the methods she obtained from the cultivation alliance”

Leng Tian Xing added: “Our method and Smithing abilities have far surpassed what we had before. At least, the overall standard has increased by an entire level”

Gu Qing Shan nodded, feeling relieved.

Smithing was one of the 6 arts, and the 6 arts were the core of a cultivation civilization.

The better the 6 arts became, the better the power of a cultivation civilization as a whole could be shown.

At this point, Xie Dao Ling took out another bag and tossed it to Ning Yue Chan: “Ning Yue Chan, your Yong Zhen General armor has been reissued, the rest of your supplies are inside this bag, you may check it yourselves”

“Leng Tian Xing, Ning Yue Chan, did the two of you find anything lacking?”

Leng Tian Xing and Ning Yue Chan both shook their heads.

Before coming here, they were already fully equipped by the seniors of their sects.

And they already knew more or less what they needed to do following this.

Bai Hua Fairy then looked at Gu Qing Shan and told him: “Qing Shan, now we will discuss your military merits”

“Me? My merits?”

Gu Qing Shan pointed at himself, a bit unexpected.

“Indeed, during the calamity of Shen Wu world, you convinced the Tianma to help us, killing a Virtualized realm cultivator in the process and saving the entire cultivation world while you were transported to another world”

“After much discussion and consideration of your current cultivation, the military merits you received have been increased accordingly”

“Originally, you were a You Ji General, but due to your great contributions, we have unanimously decided that you are worthy of the Shen Wei rank”

Gu Qing Shan froze, unable to process what was happening.

“Shifu, isn’t that too big of a jump?” he muttered.

The cultivation world’s military ranks, there was no need to mention the lower ranks, but the rank of General was divided into four separate levels.

From lowest to highest, the ranks were: You Ji, Ding Yuan, Yong Zhen, and Shen Wei.

Gu Qing Shan went directly from a You Ji General to become a Shen Wei General.

Ning Yue Chan came up to him and smiled: “Congratulations, you deserve this”

Leng Tian Xing also spoke: “You really do”

Xiuxiu happily cheered: “Senior brother! You’re a Shen Wei General!”

Qing Rou asked Wan Er: “Shen Wei is the highest-ranking general right?”

“Ah, I think that was how it was divided” Wan Er answered her.

Qing Rou then turned to Gu Qing Shan: “Senior brother, you definitely deserve it”

Wan Er also nodded again and again.

——-the things he did, no one else could’ve done.

If he doesn’t deserve the rank of Shen Wei General, who does?

Xie Dao Ling smiled: “We have also prepared your rewards, but when it comes to weapons, I believe that none of your swords are common items, so in order to not arbitrarily giving you something you don’t need, I did not supply you a weapon”

“If he didn’t get a weapon, what did he get in exchange?” Xiuxiu quickly asked.

“I’ve used a lot of our world’s resources to exchange for a sword Secret Art for him” Bai Hua Fairy replied.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised. historical

So that’s what that was, Shifu is really considerate.

“What about armor?” Qing Rou asked worriedly.

“An armor is crucial for a sword cultivator’s protection, so of course I have prepared for him a brand new Shen Wei General armor” Bai Hua Fairy smiled, “it took 12 Smithing Grandmasters a total of 10 days working nonstop to finish it—— this armor can be considered the ultimate crystallization of our world’s Smithing techniques”

She then gave Gu Qing Shan a bag.

Everyone stared at Gu Qing Shan, looking forward to seeing what his armor looked like.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t open the bag right away and asked in return: “Where are we going? To the Strife Zones?”

Bai Hua Fairy answered him: “We are not, the Strife Zones is the area where countless races face off against each other, although large-scale massacres are a common occurrence, as long as you are able to survive, your strength will surely quickly increase——- so it is unbelievably hard for normal people to enter”

“For the last several dozen years, quite a few cultivation worlds have been taken prisoner by the [Demon King Order], while the remaining cultivation worlds have to go against the demonized, combined with various chaotic in-fighting, our overall ranking among the Professions have plummeted near the bottom, so the number of quotas we have to be able to enter the Strife Zones are decreasing year by year”

Her eyes became serious: “Because I now lead the cultivation alliance, I’ve suggested and passed the decision to start this year’s novice qualification test ahead of time”

“You must win against young cultivators from tens of thousands of other cultivation worlds and become the strongest novices to quality to represent cultivators and enter the Strife Zones”

Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and asked: “Are there any other ways to enter the Strife Zones?”

Bai Hua Fairy looked at him: “There is, you can ask Chen Wang, or any Lord-class Combatants of other large-scale Profession organizations to give you a quota from their side”

“But I have to remind you, between humans like us, novices from every Profession will have to go through the same trial, prove themselves with their own power and become the strongest of their kind to obtain the qualifications”

“The strong move forward, while the weak stays behind, this has always been the most respected principle of human Combatants, as well as the fairest qualification method”

“If you ask Combatants like Chen Wang, perhaps they will give it to you, but that will be the same as stealing the qualification that would’ve belonged to someone else”

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “Then let’s not, I wouldn’t want to ask for a favor with this anyways. I can easily take a quota by myself”

Ning Yue Chan agreed: “We can do such a thing with our own strength, there’s no need to beg others”

Leng Tian Xing also agreed: “Indeed, that is how it should be”

Hearing that, Bai Hua Fairy also appeared pleased.

It was true that there were things you could ask others to help with on the path of cultivation.

——–but in fair selection competitions like these, if a cultivator doesn’t have the will to grind themselves forward, instead, thinking of ways to use a back door to achieve what they want, then not only won’t they be celebrated, they will also be ignored.

This wasn’t what made a true Combatant.

Xie Dao Ling then told her disciples: “Bai Ying Tian, watch over the sect and teach the others”

The white goose answered: “Yes, Shifu”

“Xiuxiu, Qing Rou, Wan Er, keep doing your best and cultivate, perhaps this time next year, you will be ready to enter the Strife Zones as well”

“Yes, Shifu”

The three girls all responded.

Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan, Ning Yue Chan and Leng Tian Xing to respond, Xie Dao Ling’s long sleeve swept across as the three of them disappeared from the hall.

“I will take them to the novice qualification”

Leaving it at that, Xie Dao Ling also disappeared.
