1409 Perks of Being a General
"If you're done here, I will take you back." Xu Jiaqi said.
Yuan looked at her with slightly raised eyebrows. Perhaps he was overthinking it, but he sensed a hint of irritation within Xu Jiaqi's voice, but he couldn't recall doing anything to annoy her.
"Yes, I am done here," he said a mont later.
Xu Jiaqi looked at Senior Bai, who nodded, creating a portal before them the next second.
"This will take you back to the Myriad of Techniques," he said.
"Do you have any questions before you leave?"
Yuan pondered for a bit before asking, "How do I co here without your help?"
Surely, there must be a way to enter the Celestial Overlords' headquarters without Senior Bai's assistance. Otherwise, that would make Senior Bai a gatekeeper.
"We have places spread throughout the Nine Heavens with portals that lead to this place, though they only exist within the Sixth Heaven and above," said Senior Bai.
"But if you ever want to visit this place for whatever reason, you can just contact through the Myriad of Techniques," he added.
Yuan nodded, "I see. Thank you."
"Until next ti."
Yuan walked through the portal the next mont, disappearing from the Celestial Overlords' headquarters and returning to the Myriad of Techniques.
"Have you guys found any suitable techniques?" Yuan asked the others when he returned to their side.
"This place has an abundance of techniques! I can't believe such a treasure trove exists!" Xi ili exclaid, rendered speechless by the vast array of techniques available for purchase.
Yuan looked at her, who was carrying over a dozen techniques in her arms, smiled, and said, "That's an impressive amount of techniques you have there."
lightsvl m She chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm not expecting you to pay for them."
"If they're below a certain rank, I can acquire them for free," he said.
"Really?! They are all Divine-rank techniques, though."
"Probably"
Yuan looked at ixiu and the others. Excluding Xiao Hua, they all had two to three techniques in their grasp. Upon entering the Fourth Heaven, the volu of techniques accessible in the Myriad of Techniques had significantly expanded, unveiling nurous new and formidable skills for them to explore.
"Are you all ready?" he asked.
They nodded.
Seeing this, Yuan guided them to the front desk, where a middle-aged man was overseeing the operations.
This was his first ti buying techniques from the Myriad of Techniques after he achieved the rank of General.bender
He showed his symbol to the middle-aged man and asked, "Do I get any discounts?"
Even though Xu Jiaqi warned him to not show off his symbol until he increased his cultivation, he figured that it would be safe to do so within the Myriad of Techniques.
The middle-aged man furrowed his brows upon seeing the symbol, casting a disapproving glare at Yuan while scrutinizing him from head to toe.
"You're a General within the Celestial Overlords? How co I don't recognize you?" The middle-aged man spoke in a cold voice. He was a Warrior in the faction, and he'd morized all of the Generals and above. Yet, he didn't recognize Yuan.
Moreover, Yuan seed clueless about his own privileges as a General.
"I'm a new mber, and I was only recently promoted to the rank of General," said Yuan.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes at Yuan, whose cultivation was simply too low to be part of the Celestial Overlords, much less a General there.
The middle-aged man sighed a mont later, "While uncommon, there are people like you from ti to tibold individuals who think they can fool the Myriad of Techniques. However, you are especially bold, to utter such ridiculous lies with a straight face. How can soone who just joined the faction beco a General already?"
"Eh?" Yuan raised an eyebrow at his ominous words.
"The punishnt for impersonating one of us is death, but I will give you a chance to admit your cri and apologize." The middle-aged man spoke in a calm voice, yet his gaze was cold and oozing with killing intent.
Seeing this, Yuan sighed, "What's the point of this symbol if nobody believes ? And don't you have a talisman that proves I am a mber of the faction?"
"That only proves you are a mber, not a General." The middle-aged man calmly said.
Yuan took away the symbol the next mont and retrieved a dallion from his spatial ring.
"Here."
"T-this is" The middle-aged man swallowed nervously at the sight of Senior Bai's dallion.
"Don't tell you're going to say it's a fake." Yuan calmly said.
The middle-aged man accepted the dallion into his hands, taking a mont to thoroughly inspect it.
"It's real" he muttered in a dazed voice.
"If you still have doubts, you can ask Senior Bai."
"T-that won't be necessary. I apologize for doubting you, General. May I have your na?"
"Yuan."
"Then, General Yuan, allow to give you a brief explanation of your privileges as a General. As a General, you are allowed to acquire any Heaven-rank and Divine-rank techniques from the Myriad of Techniques for free. Ancient-rank techniques will have a seventy-five percent discount."
"Divine-rank techniques are free for ? That's very generous." Yuan didn't expect the faction to be so generous.
"That may seem to be the case at first glance, but if you think about it, most Generals have a cultivation of Immortal Ascension and beyond. At that level, Divine-rank techniques aren't as useful." The middle-aged man explained.
"Makes sense." Yuan nodded.
It only seed like a crazy privilege to him because he was still a Spirit King in the Fourth Heaven, where Divine-rank techniques are still rare and valuable. In the upper heavens, however, they are not as valuable and sought after.
Yuan turned to look at Xi ili and the others and said, "You heard him. As long as it's not Ancient-rank, you can have them for free."
"No way" Xi ili muttered in a dazed voice with a bewildered expression on her face. She had prepared to spend a fortune on her techniques, so it was baffling to hear that she wouldn't need to spend a coin on them.
'But, I won't complain!' Xi ili rrily walked over to the front desk and laid all of her techniques before the middle-
aged man, creating a small mountain.
