A quarter of an hour later.
Inside a palace in the most central area of the War Fortress.
Lin Baichuan finally met the true person in charge of this fortress—Ye Qingzhou, a peak Immortal Lord expert.
He looked like a boy barely in his teens, dressed in a white robe like an ancient Confucian scholar.
"Lin Baichuan... you're quite impressive..."
The moment Lin Baichuan entered the hall and saw Ye Qingzhou, the latter gave a soft laugh, looked at him, and said, "I already know everything you did in Burial God Valley.
Very good.
You set up a Fourth-Order Immortal Formation and, with your own strength, suppressed and killed tens of thousands of Divine Immortal Realm troops from the Demon and Monster Races.
Not only did you inflict grievous losses upon the Demon and Monster Races, you also successfully shattered the Alien Races' plot. Your merit this time is enormous.
I have already reported your Meritorious Service. Once you return to Hangu Pass, it should be credited to you.
It should not be less than one million Contribution Points. Moreover, your position will be promoted, from an ordinary disciple of the War Hall to an elite disciple of the War Hall..."
"Thank you, Senior..."
Lin Baichuan's eyes immediately lit up, and he promptly offered his thanks.
He did not care much about anything else, but he was truly pleased about being promoted to an elite disciple of the War Hall.
War Hall disciples were ranked as well. They began as ordinary disciples, followed by advanced disciples, and only then came elite disciples.
Each rank came with different benefits.
At the same time, their permissions differed as well.
At the most basic level, once one became an elite disciple, one could access far more information and accept different kinds of missions.
