This scene shocked Jing Yan.
These chiefs sure have their ear to the ground.
"Brother Jing Yan! Brother Jing Yan!"
One person was desperately trying to squeeze to the front. But the other chiefs weren’t easy to deal with either, none of them allowed him to break through.
Having no choice, he kept shouting, "Brother Jing Yan, you were a mber of the Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace, I am the Chief of the Qingmu Departnt in the Second Palace, Cao Lin! It’s Old Cao!"
"You must join the Qingmu Departnt of the Second Palace!" The Chief of the Second Palace Qingmu Departnt, Cao Lin, shouted.
"My Blue Smoke Departnt welcos Brother Jing Yan with open arms!"
"..."
The voices of the chiefs intertwined, making Jing Yan’s head spin slightly.
Although the departnts of the Second Palace and the First Palace are each part of a system, they are relatively independent. A martial artist in the First Palace, like Jing Yan, is a mber of the Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace, but upon advancing to the Second Palace, he can choose to join another departnt entirely.
Jing Yan understood this. Gong Luo ntioned it to him and hinted that he hoped Jing Yan would join the Qingmu Departnt in the Second Palace. However, it was ultimately Jing Yan’s choice. The status of the Qingmu Departnt in the Second Palace is relatively low among the various departnts.
There’s nothing that can be done about it.
To put it more visually, the First Palace departnts are like the foundation of a building. If a departnt in the First Palace is strong, then the corresponding departnts in the Second Palace, Third Palace, and so on will be strong. After all, if a martial artist joins the Water Moon Departnt in the First Palace, they generally won’t abandon the Water Moon Departnt when advancing to the Second Palace, provided they ascend quickly due to their talent.
The logic is quite simple.
Seeing these chiefs, Jing Yan could only smile helplessly and say, "Chiefs, I am truly sorry, but I was a mber of the Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace, so I wish to continue into the Qingmu Departnt in the Second Palace."
Jing Yan decided this while he was in the First Palace.
Although he only stayed in the Qingmu Departnt of the First Palace for a little over three months, he had a good impression of it, with no unpleasant incidents. Hence, there was no need to change anything upon reaching the Second Palace.
Moreover, he wouldn’t stay in the Second Palace for long and would advance to the Third Palace as soon as possible.
The Chief of the Second Palace Qingmu Departnt, Cao Lin, was overjoyed upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, his old face almost gleaming.
"Brother Jing Yan, I felt close to you at first glance, knowing you aren’t soone who burns bridges after crossing. Haha, great! Very good, co with , let’s visit the Qingmu Departnt first." Cao Lin finally broke through, dragging Jing Yan along.
The other chiefs could only watch them leave, unable to stop them, feeling dejected.
"Bah, what a thing! It’s just a sowhat talented native, what’s so extraordinary about it. Hmph, my Sky Wolf Departnt truly doesn’t care." The Chief of the Sky Wolf Departnt spat towards Jing Yan’s departing back.
There are plenty like the Sky Wolf Departnt. They were imnsely polite when hoping to recruit Jing Yan, but upon failing, they imdiately switch faces and curse.
...
The Deputy Minister of the Second Palace Assessnt Departnt reported the assessnt situation to the Minister. The Minister was moved upon hearing Jing Yan was over a hundred years old. When he heard Jing Yan had slapped a chanical Puppet flying, his eyes flashed with brilliance.
"Interesting! If I had known earlier, I would have gone over to see." The Minister regrettably said.
Simultaneously, the Hall Master of Wanbao Hall in the First Palace, Gou Xu, also reported a ssage layer by layer about the rewards of the Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace. Jing Yan’s rapid advancent was too shocking; the rewards for Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace couldn’t be decided by Wanbao Hall alone.
This ssage quickly reached the Ninth Palace.
"How should this reward be distributed?" A Supre Elder glanced at the others and slowly said.
"Just follow the standards." Another person half-closed their eyes and said.
"If distributed according to standards, the number of rewards might be excessive." Soone chuckled lightly.
"Indeed! Jing Yan is exceptionally gifted. It’s been ages since such a talent appeared in Luo Jiu Divine Palace. According to the data, he’s only over 160 years old, tsk tsk..."
"It seems, a reward of one Divine Spring Hall cannot be omitted. Hmm, besides the Divine Spring Hall, at least one million Divine Crystals should be added. Qingmu Departnt has been relatively weak, but with the recruitnt of Jing Yan, they have truly struck gold this ti. Though they can’t yet compare with the Water Moon Departnt, advancing to the top tier shouldn’t be difficult." Supre Elder Yongming said.
"Are we really going to reward one Divine Spring Hall?" Soone cracked a smile.
"We can’t let those below lose heart! This incentive chanism was personally set by the Palace Master and Vice Palace Master, we should execute according to the rules!"
"Let’s do it then!"
"One Divine Spring Hall, one million Divine Crystals, one million acres of dicine Fields! What do you all think of this reward?" Yongming slightly raised his glance and said.
"Sounds good, I rember the Water Moon Departnt had a mber who advanced to the Second Palace before reaching 500 years old, the rewards were about the sa then."
"If no one has any objections, let’s proceed! I’ll send the ssage to Gou Xu, the Hall Master of Wanbao Hall in the First Palace!" Yongming stood up.
One Divine Spring Hall, one million Divine Crystals, one million acres of dicine Fields. This reward, indeed, is quite substantial.
The ssage from Supre Elder Yongming quickly reached Gou Xu, the Hall Master of Wanbao Hall in the First Palace.
Gou Xu saw the reward and also sighed inwardly.
"Director Gong Luo will certainly stand tall this ti. The Qingmu Departnt has truly struggled over the years, yet the ergence of Jing Yan will turn the tide for Director Gong Luo’s Qingmu Departnt." Gou Xu said softly.
"Hall Master, has a decision been made regarding the reward for the Qingmu Departnt?" In front of Gou Xu, a Wanbao Hall elder brightened his eyes and said.
"Yes, the decision has been made. Elder Ding Ye, go notify Director Gong Luo to co and receive the reward." Gou Xu said to the elder.
"Alright, I’ll take a trip." Ding Ye nodded, then turned and walked out.
Director Gong Luo of the Qingmu Departnt in the First Palace, four deacons, and several hundred mbers were all waiting.
At this mont, they couldn’t focus on their cultivation.
They were eagerly anticipating what kind of reward their Qingmu Departnt would receive this ti.
"Director, how long does it take for the reward to be confird?" Xia Yu asked most eagerly.
"Well, it’s hard to say! If the big figures in Jidao Palace are busy, it might take a while for them to have ti to discuss." Gong Luo was uncertain.
Since he took over the Qingmu Departnt, they have never received a reward that required the decision of the big figures in Jidao Palace. Ordinary rewards can be directly issued by Wanbao Hall in the First Palace. For instance, the reward for mbers who advance to the Second Palace between the ages of five thousand and ten thousand is rely twenty thousand first-level Divine Crystals.
"Sigh, I hope it gets confird soon!"
"Being anxious doesn’t help, we’re waiting with expectant eyes, but to those big figures, this might just be a trivial matter." Several deacons discussed.
