Cultivation: Start From Upgrading My Computer

Setting Off In A Team

“Of course, you can.” Bai Ci’er nodded happily.

After all, he had fought side by side with Cheng Xu before and knew that Cheng Xu’s strength was extraordinary.

And for someone like her who didn’t like to socialize much, she would naturally prefer to find someone she knew.

Han Yue and Yue Yang were both at the peak of the Qi Refining stage. They had also seen Cheng Xu’s strength in the fight with Hu Jiaojiao, so they welcomed Cheng Xu into the team.

Only the Scorching Sun Sect disciple at the side felt indignant.

“Why can he join and I can’t? No matter what, I’m still a genius second only to Senior Brother Huyan in the Scorching Sun Sect.”

“…”

Bai Ci’er seemed to have a headache and politely refused,

“We’re too weak, and I’m afraid we’ll be a burden to Brother Wang. Furthermore, with Brother Wang’s strength, you can obviously find a better team.”

“It’s fine, I’m happy to do so.”

“What is Fairy Bai doing? Isn’t it a good thing to have a Foundation Establishment teammate?” Cheng Xu asked.

“Yes, yes, yes. Cheng Xu, Brother Cheng, right?” Brother Wang’s eyes brightened slightly, and he secretly cast a grateful look at Cheng Xu.”

Bai Ci’er’s face was full of worry and she was at a loss.

“But …”

At this time, Han Yue and Yue Yang, who were standing beside them, also said,

“Ci’er, don’t hesitate anymore. This experience isn’t a joke. With an expert like Brother Wang joining us, we’ll be able to avoid a lot of danger.”

In the face of her three teammates’ persuasion, Bai Ci’er could only nod helplessly.

“Alright then.”

“Hahaha, that’s more like it! I’m not a dreadful monster, is there a need to be so afraid?”

Brother Wang was overjoyed. He cupped his fists to the three of them and expressed his gratitude.

“I just hope that Brother Wang Can speak less.” Bai Ci’er felt helpless.

I understand, I understand. Brother Wang patted his chest and promised. He then introduced himself to Cheng Xu.

“Wang Xiaolun of the Scorching Sun sect, I can empathize with the grievances you suffered in the Yunzhong Sect.”

Cheng Xu chuckled and nodded. He could vaguely smell the scent of a chatterbox.

At this time, Yang Tianqi also came over with his teammates.

“It seems that I’m a little late. I’m relieved to know that Junior Brother Cheng has joined the Medicine Celestial Valley.”

“Congratulations Brother Yang for successfully reaching the Foundation Establishment.” Cheng Xu chuckled and congratulated him.

Yang Tianqi smiled humbly.

“It’s a pity that Junior Brother Cheng has already joined Junior Sister Bai’s team. I wonder if Junior Brother Cheng can help me recommend a candidate?”

“Of course, you can.” Cheng Xu nodded with a smile.

He turned around and pointed at Jian Yuxiang,

“That senior sister of mine isn’t bad. Among the Medicine Celestial Valley disciples, she’s second only to Senior Brother Tang.

He had wanted to recommend Miao Changsheng, but he decided against it after some thought.

With Miao Changsheng’s strength, it would be more dangerous for him to follow Yang Tianqi and his group of Foundation Establishment stage teammates.

“Is that so?” Yang Tianqi and the others’ eyes lit up.

“Thank you, Junior Brother Cheng.”

After he finished speaking, he impatiently went to invite Jian Yuxiang to join the team.

“Wow! I didn’t expect the Medicine Celestial Valley to have such a beautiful fairy. Tsk, tsk!” Wang Xiaolun looked curiously at Jian Yuxiang and was amazed.

Han Yue and Yue Yang were both speechless.

Cheng Xu’s mouth twitched unconsciously. He finally understood why Bai Ci’er hated this guy.

Unknowingly, the disciples of the five sects had basically formed their teams.

It was worth mentioning that because of Cheng Xu, none of the Medicine Celestial Valley disciples were willing to join Hu Jiaojiao’s team.

“Hmph, I don’t care!” Hu Jiaojiao glared at Cheng Xu, who was standing in the distance.

“At least we don’t have to drag him down.”

Moreover, she was an Alchemist herself, so she didn’t need any Medicine Celestial Valley disciples.

Seeing that the younger generation had successfully formed their teams, the leaders of the five sects, led by Tayun Zhenren, no longer wasted time. They loudly gathered all the teams under the high platform and then arranged a series of Jade slips in the air that recorded the investigation tasks, forming a pyramid-like shape. The higher they went, the more difficult it was.

“These are the investigation missions that have been compiled and formulated based on the current information. They are divided into four levels of difficulty, A, B, C, D, and the unique level of special missions at the top.”

“Of course, to stimulate your enthusiasm, there will also be rewards for this joint experiential learning. The more difficult the mission is, the more generous the rewards will be.”

Upon hearing that there would be a reward, the eyes of the disciples from the various sects lit up.

Tayun Zhenren paused and continued,

“This time’s experiential learning rewards are provided by the five sects. Next, we will show the rewards of this experiential learning in turn.”

After saying that, Daoist Cloudrise took the lead and took out the reward he had prepared.

“First, it’s my Cloud Sect. This time, I’ve prepared four high-quality sword techniques for everyone, as well as the ‘Heavenly Dipper Sword Technique’, which originated from the core inheritance of my sect. I’ll give it to the team that has completed the special mission. As for the four high-quality sword techniques, they will be awarded to the most outstanding team in the fourth-rank mission.”

As soon as the reward was announced, the audience exclaimed.

After all, the sword skills of the Yunzhong Sect were famous for being powerful, especially those sword skills that were part of the core inheritance.

Even the disciples of the Yunzhong Sect who were present were shocked by the style of the Sect Leader, Daoist Master Cloudrise.

On Cheng Xu’s side, Bai Ci’er’s eyes lit up as she stared at the second rank.

“Fairy Bai, are you interested in the second-rank sword technique?” Cheng Xu asked curiously.

Bai Ci’er nodded excitedly.

“Don’t worry! It’s just a second-tier mission. With me around, it’ll be easy!” Wang Xiaolun patted his chest and promised.

Then, the leaders of the Scorching Sun Sect, the Godly Luo Hall, and the Wondrous Spell Sect appeared one after another and showed the prizes they had prepared. Without exception, they were all rare and good items.

The Scorching Sun Sect took out dozens of high-quality magical treasures in one go.

The Divine Hall took out dozens of formation disks that had been perfectly blended.

Wondrous Spell Sect even took out a high-level talisman of the Aurous Core stage. Although it was only a consumable item, it was a talisman that could hurt an Aurous Core stage cultivator.

The disciples of the various sects below the stage cried out in shock wave after wave, wishing they could immediately charge towards the Divine Dao headquarters!

The atmosphere was pushed to a climax when Reverend Dan Yang appeared on the stage and presented the prizes prepared by the Medicine Celestial Valley.

It was because what Reverend Dan Yang took out was none other than the [ Marrow and Tendon Cleansing Pill ], the prize of the previous competition.

The disciples of the various sects were all breathing rapidly, their eyes shining.

Even the leaders of the other four sects were shocked.

“Good fellow, didn’t you say that the Tendon and Marrow Cleansing Pills were used up?” The hall master of the divine gaze Hall asked in bewilderment.

Reverend Dan Yang pursed his lips calmly.

“I’ve been rummaging through the sect’s Treasury recently and found some more.”

“…” Tayun Zhenren took a deep breath and said meaningfully,

“With the Marrow and Tendon Cleansing Pill as a reward, I’m afraid this bunch of juniors is going to risk their lives!”

“Isn’t that so?” The Sect Leader of the Scorching Sun Sect agreed, “It makes this old man want to go and gain some experience.”

“Tsk tsk, a Supreme-grade Tendon and Marrow Cleansing Pill. I didn’t even enjoy such treatment back then.” Wondrous Spell Sect’s Leader sighed.

…

Looking at Cheng Xu’s team again, Wang Xiaolun was already starting to regret it.

If he had known that the reward was so powerful, he wouldn’t have cared about picking up girls. He would definitely have prioritized finding a group of Foundation Establishment teammates. If he was lucky, he might even have a chance to compete for the special prize, and the first prize would definitely be won.

Now that he had a group of teammates at the peak of the Qi Refining stage, he basically had no chance of winning the special prize and the first prize.

“Brother Wang, are you regretting it now?” Cheng Xu asked with a smile.

“Regretting what?” Wang Xiaolun quickly collected his emotions. “Who said I’m regretting? As long as I can help Little Sister Ci’er get first place in the second-rank mission, everything will be worth it.”

Cheng Xu, Bai Ci’er, and the other two looked at each other and smiled without saying anything.

On the high platform, after announcing the rewards prepared by the various sects, Daoist Cloudrise spoke again,

“Cough, cough, that… Although the rewards are generous, you must act within your means. Without further ado, each team can choose its mission.”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the team leaders swarmed forward, afraid that they would be one step slower.

The captain of Cheng Xu’s team was naturally Wang Xiaolun, an early Foundation Establishment Big Boss.

He leaped into the air and rushed toward the B-grade mission Jade slip.

However, what Cheng Xu and the others didn’t expect was that Wang Xiaolun, who could have easily gotten a B-tier mission, suddenly fell into an inexplicable dilemma.

Then, under the dumbfounded gazes of the few people, he turned in the air and snatched the last A-grade mission Jade slip.

Bai Ci’er and the other two’s expressions instantly froze.

Even Cheng Xu couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

“Damn, is there something wrong with this guy’s brain?”

He had thought that this brother was just a little talkative, but he didn’t expect him to be so brainless.

“Sigh… If I had known this would happen, I would have listened to Ci’er and found someone else to join the team.” Yue Yang shook his head with a bitter smile, feeling extremely regretful.

Bai Ci’er’s expression paled. After all, what she wanted the most was the sword technique rewarded by the B-grade mission.

Even worse, with their team’s strength, the hope of getting a first-tier reward was very slim.

So when Wang Xiaolun came back, Cheng Xu and the other three didn’t give him a good look.

“Ahem, this… Everyone, you have to have confidence in yourselves. With me around, there’s still hope for us to get the A-rank reward,” Wang Xiaolun said with a thick-skinned smile.

“Now that things have come to this, we can only take one step at a time.” Bai Ci’er sighed in disappointment.

“Sister Ci’er, don’t be sad. When the time comes, you’ll be able to exchange a first-grade sword technique for someone else’s second-grade sword technique.”

Bai Ci’er was too lazy to respond to him.

There was indeed no problem with changing from first to second, but the premise was that they could get first place in the A-level mission.

Looking at the line-up of the other teams that had accepted the first-grade mission, they were undoubtedly the weakest team among the first-grade mission teams, at least in terms of overall cultivation.

When all the teams received the mission, the elders of the various sects who were already on standby on the cloud-treading Summit took out their treasure ships one after another, and they were responsible for sending the teams to the mission area.

Cheng Xu’s mission was to go to the Heluo Kingdom in the northern part of Mini Southern Heaven to investigate.

It was a coincidence that the ship was on the same route as the Milky Way and Hu Jiaojiao’s beautiful girls’ team. Not only that, but Miao Changsheng’s team was also on this ship.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother Tang, we happened to be passing by! We might be able to help each other when the time comes,” Miao Changsheng said excitedly.

Cheng Xu and Tang Xuan looked at each other and nodded with a smile.

As for the beautiful girls’ battle team led by Hu Jiaojiao, from the moment they boarded the ship, they had been gritting their teeth and staring at Cheng Xu. Those who didn’t know would think that there was some deep hatred between them.

Cheng Xu couldn’t be bothered with her. He looked down at the magnificent mountains and rivers below while chatting with his teammates to improve their relationship.

Of course, Wang Xiaolun was an exception.

However, the more Cheng Xu acted this way, the angrier Hu Jiaojiao became.

“Seriously, Ci’er, you actually formed a team with this kind of person? Be careful not to let him take advantage of you.”

Cheng Xu was inexplicably angry and really wanted to go up and give her a big slap.

Bai Ci’er smiled awkwardly.

“Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister. Junior Brother Cheng is not as bad as you think.”

“Hmph, you’re still calling him Junior Brother Cheng at a time like this?” Hu Jiaojiao snorted.

At this crucial moment, Yan Changfeng stood out from the Milky Way battleship.

“Stop talking. Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough?”

Seeing that Yan Changfeng had spoken, Hu Jiaojiao obediently shut her mouth.
