Chapter 88: Another Tide Is Rising
As soon as everyone was organized for the trip back to the village, Benton scanned the area for any spirit beasts. There were none near.
Good. The twins and Ye Zan’s guards should be able to handle any that popped up.
Benton pulled up his status.

The first thing that he noticed was that the sect name had been filled in. For some reason, seeing Rising Tide listed there made him feel a great sense of accomplishment. The second was that he now had fifty-five sect members and fifty-five disciples. He would have to figure out how to separate the two soon for the new inductees from the village, but as he had personally accepted each of the ones so far as his disciples, he was fine with that status continuing for the founding sect members.
His eyes drifted to the bottom of the screen where the Shop was no longer listed as locked. That menu was definitely high on his list of things to explore. Three other menus had changed as well, though, and one, Sect, had been added. Cultivation Method and Advancement both had new features available. He’d have to check all those out.
Interestingly, the Quest tab showed new quests available. The screen previously hadn’t displayed that content even when he did, in fact, have new quests available. He’d had to open that tab to discover them.
It seemed that founding his sect had supercharged his System access in big and small ways.
The three other changes to the menu tabs could wait, though. He was most interested in the Shop.
“System,” he said internally, “please open the Shop tab.”
Welcome, Host, to the Shop.
