"N-noble Vaan...!"
"Yes?"
Vaan glanced at the ill-stricken Junior Disciple, who seed excited, nervous, and worried simultaneously.
"If you don’t mind, can we tidy up the Grand Chamber?" the ill-stricken Junior Disciple requested in a hoarse voice as three other Junior Disciples hid behind her.
Vaan recognized the group of four Junior Disciples as mbers of the rmaid Clan. They were supposedly blessed with beautiful appearances and voices, but the group of four before him possessed neither of those qualities.
Their heaven-blessed traits had been concealed by the illnesses that plagued them.
It seed to have taken them great courage to approach Vaan for such a simple question. Vaan felt a little speechless.
"Sure, just go ahead. This is a public space. You do not need to seek my permission for sothing like this," Vaan honestly stated.
The Grand Chamber of Dilemma truly needed so serious maintenance and reorganization. Vaan had no reason to reject the rmaid’s request.
"Thank you very much, Noble Vaan!"
The group of four rmaids happily scurried off to comnce cleaning after receiving Vaan’s permission.
Vaan shook his head after watching their departure.
Whether it was the four rmaids or the millions of other ill-stricken Junior Disciples outside, none of them seed to be troubled by any particularly difficult-to-treat illnesses. They simply lacked the resources or financial support to overco them.
’Regardless of the realm level, poverty will always exist,’ Vaan contemplated.
Despite the Myriad Sea God Palace’s seemingly prosperous status, countless life forms still suffered from poverty. In fact, the distinction between the wealthy and the poor was made much clearer.
The Myriad Sea God Palace had a vast population beyond mortal imagination. Even with imnse resources at its disposal, it couldn’t just support everyone if it wanted to maintain a hegemonic status unchanged over ti.
’The more you have of it, the less you value it...’ Vaan mused.
Given the Myriad Sea God Palace’s vast population, it wouldn’t be surprising for the higher-ups to view the entry-level Junior Disciples as dispensable; they were easy to replace.
There were many life forms outside who would gladly take their place if it ant they could join the Myriad Sea God Palace. Until these ill-stricken Junior Disciples proved themselves, they were of no value in the eyes of those above them.
If they couldn’t prove their talents, they could only prove their resolve.
However, the resolve valued by higher-ranking beings might be different from what Vaan valued. They did not care about stubborn determination but rather the willingness to take risks.
Perhaps if the ill-stricken Junior Disciple had the resolve to risk their future at the Myriad Sea God Palace and used their valuable credits to fix their own problems, they would have drawn the attention and interest of so potential patrons.
After all, even if they couldn’t be raised into generals, they could still beco usable soldiers.
’It’s getting difficult to solve these problems with my current level of knowledge...’ Vaan furrowed his brows as the frequency of unsolvable problems he encountered increased.
Ultimately, the fish-n’s race was too diverse, and the range of existing illnesses was also much broader and more unique.
Even if the ill-stricken Junior Disciples recorded the complete details of their dical examination, Vaan would still be helpless to help in the face of unfamiliar poisons, anatomies, and diseases.
His knowledge was still lacking.
The group of four rmaids was very mindful of their presence as they tidied up the grand chamber’s interior.
They didn’t want their presence to affect Vaan’s problem-solving. But at the sa ti, they didn’t want him to be inconvenienced by the ssy environnt.
As ti passed, more sick and feeble-looking fish-n joined the clean-up effort. The grand chamber’s interior steadily regained its forr glittering majesty and beca more presentable for visitors.
Just as Vaan was about to run out of dical problems that he could solve, the surrounding Hydrolectium Particles suddenly beca agitated. In that mont, he found himself briefly bathed in holy light before the white brilliance converged in front of him, forming a square panel with a few rows of Gaian characters.
Following the written announcent, the Hydrolectium Particles shot into Vaan’s body, bypassing his will and entering into the Heaven-Swallowing Space. After disappearing inside his ID card for a mont, they were eventually expelled from his body with fading brilliance.
When Vaan checked his ID card, he found that his credit balance had already been updated.
Just like that, Vaan had received 20 credits.
The rewards for breaking records were far more generous than those gained from achievents in personal cultivation or guiding others in theirs.
’Since 10,000 was the criterion for triggering the achievent announcent, would there be another one at 100,000 and higher as well?’ Vaan wondered. He shook his head shortly after.
Even if it were true, he wouldn’t necessarily claim them in ti.
The Hall of rit recorded all achievents ever made by disciples in the Outer Palace. Anyone could visit and review its information for reference to formulate their credit-earning goals.
It wouldn’t matter if other Junior Disciples reviewed Vaan’s feats since they wouldn’t be capable of replicating them or surpassing them. However, if they spread the news, countless higher-ranking disciples would be interested in attempting such feats.
Considering the great attention on Vaan, he wouldn’t be surprised if there were already disciples instructed to keep track of his achievent record in the Hall of rit by their faction leaders.
As such, many higher-ranking disciples would quickly drop by to try their luck.
’There’s only one cake, but many divine beings to split it. I’m afraid no one will be able to complete those greater achievents,’ Vaan mused.
The problems at each Chamber of Dilemma were limited.
Unless the higher-ranking disciples possessed enough power and authority to monopolize the Chamber of Dilemmas for themselves, no one would be able to resolve 100,000 dilemmas while competing with many others.
Just as Vaan predicted, not even five minutes after he read the announcent, several dozen Divine Lord-level Professors had already shown up outside the Grand Chamber of Dilemma.
The atmosphere outside quickly beca tense when the Divine Lord-level Professors made eye contact with each other. The ill-stricken Junior Disciples found the situation as suffocating as it was shocking.
In normal tis, being of such great status wouldn’t even spare them a glance. Yet, here they all were, visiting the Grand Chamber of Dilemma.
