Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards

One night quickly passed, and as the morning sun leaped over the horizon, Celestial Essence City welcomed a new day once again.

In the Martial Venerable Hall, Wang Zhifan hadn’t slept the entire night. He spent most of his time meditating and cultivating the Pure Yang True Skill, with a small portion of time allocated to necessary preparations.

At this moment, as the morning sunlight slanted in through the window and fell on him, sitting cross-legged on the meditation mat, the true energy around his body circulated, and his aura abruptly increased by a level, as if breaking through a bottleneck.

"To think I broke through in just one night... The enhancement effect of this Coiled Dragon Jade Pendant is so great, it’s like having a cheat!"

He thought to himself in astonishment as he stood up from the meditation mat and opened his personal panel to check.

[Cultivation Technique: Great Dream Saber Scripture (Excellent) Lv6, Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill (Excellent) Lv3, Pure Yang True Skill (Excellent) Lv2, Infinite Golden Body Skill (Excellent) Lv0.]

[Physique: 176.]

[Strength: 158.]

[Agility: 157.]

[Spirit: 170.]

"My Pure Yang True Skill has broken through to Lv2, which resulted in an increase of about 13 points in various attributes... If I include all the attribute bonuses I have, the average attribute increase from this level-up of Pure Yang True Skill is about 11 points... Additionally, my depth of cultivation has also increased significantly, whether in terms of explosive power or endurance, there will be remarkable improvements... and my body has already shown the embryonic form of the Pure Yang Overlord Body, once I cultivate to Lv3, I’ll reach the initial stage of the Pure Yang Overlord Body..."

After summing it up a bit, Wang Zhifan realized that his gains yesterday were not just those two epic items; the comprehensive enhancement effect of the Pure Yang True Skill alone was comparable to a small epic.

"At this rate, perhaps switching to cultivate the Infinite Golden Body Skill would result in faster progress, since my Infinite Golden Body Skill is still at Lv0, and the enhancement effect of the Coiled Dragon Jade Pendant on it must be extraordinary."

He then considered a cultivation plan that maximizes benefits, because, with the Coiled Dragon Jade Pendant, he realized that cultivating lower-level techniques was practically the same as using a speed hack.

Just as he was contemplating how to solve the problem of obtaining the medicinal bath materials needed for cultivating the Infinite Golden Body Skill, footsteps suddenly sounded from outside the hall, and then a young Daoist, whom he had little impression of, appeared, leading about fifty spirited youths to the front of the Martial Venerable Hall.

"Well, now, bringing people over so early... are Qingyangzi and the others afraid I’m slacking off?"

Needless to say, these arriving youths were students that Wang Zhifan had accepted yesterday. He had already discussed with Qingyangzi and the others that he didn’t have to worry about the day-to-day lives of these disciples. He only needed to focus on teaching and answering their questions, which is why others brought people to find him early in the morning.

"Good morning, Your Excellency the Martial Venerable!"

"Disciple Qin Quan greets Master!"

"Disciple Liou Luoying greets Master!"

"Disciple Huang Feihua greets Master!"

...

Thus, when Wang Zhifan appeared, the young Daoist in charge of managing these youths took the lead in saluting, and a total of fifty disciples came forward one by one to state their names, paying formal respects to him as their teacher.

"Alright, I’ve already memorized your names! From now on, you don’t have to go through this unnecessary ceremonial hassle every day! Come into the hall! Today, I’ll start teaching you martial arts and cultivation techniques!"

Wang Zhifan wasn’t someone who liked formality. He had already planned his teaching methods, casually instructing these disciples not to waste time by introducing themselves and greeting every day, and then led them into the vast Martial Venerable Hall, while the young Daoist remained outside the hall as a guard.

Following Wang Zhifan closely was the first disciple he had accepted yesterday, a tall and muscular boy with a bronze complexion named Qin Quan.

Beside Qin Quan were the smartly dressed girl with some Daoist cultivation, Liou Luoying, and the relatively smaller-built but spirited Huang Feihua. They were the second and third disciples that Wang Zhifan had accepted yesterday, respectively.

These disciples, surprisingly, lined up in an orderly fashion according to the sequence in which they had apprenticed under Wang Zhifan, suggesting that the Daoist who led them here had given specific instructions.

Wang Zhifan didn’t mind these small details; he was quite pleased with how these little fellows followed the rules, regardless of whether they were pretending or not.

Upon reaching the center of the great hall, in front of the towering statue of a Daoist Saint, Wang Zhifan began his first day of martial arts instruction.

"Dear disciples, today I will impart to you the cultivation techniques for individual study. You can choose to train in the martial arts techniques I’m proficient in, or learn other martial arts skills, including Daoist techniques if you wish..."

Wang Zhifan began by briefly introducing to his disciples the cultivation techniques available for study in the Martial Venerable Hall. He didn’t limit them to the few techniques he practiced, but instead offered them a broad range of choices, including the possibility of learning Daoist techniques if they wanted.

This was because he didn’t want all his disciples to be molded in the same way, hoping they each had a wide development space to maximize their potential.

As for the fact that he didn’t understand other techniques, Qingyangzi and other advanced Innate Daoists would send professional support, as agreed beforehand.

After all, such an enormous Martial Venerable Hall couldn’t possibly rely on only him for instruction. If all the teaching depended on him, how would he still have the energy to fight the Demon Venerable who threatens the Calamity Realm’s safety? Qingyangzi and the advanced Innate Daoists were not so foolish.

Of course, these disciples chose to join the Martial Venerable Hall specifically for the reputation of him being the strongest martial artist among the advanced Innate, so naturally, they wouldn’t casually choose other cultivation techniques; for instance, none of the first batch of disciples did.
