"More than suitable!"
Immortal Emperor Yin-Yang spoke unhurriedly, his eyes full of feeling. "Last month, a newly surrendered Nine-Revolution Immortal King from the Blood Race relied on his cultivation to demand a Nine-Revolution Spirit-Nurturing Grass that was still in trials from the Alchemy Hall of the Hundred Crafts Institute. He clashed with the Elf Race Pill Master on duty, injured him, and tried to throw his weight around. Lin Xiao personally led a team there and, within three moves, pinned him beneath the Law-Suppressing Stele outside the Enforcement Hall. He declared that within the New Alliance, contribution earned respect and law stood above all, regardless of race or whether one had joined early or late. The same offense carried the same punishment. On the spot, he stripped the man of three years' worth of Contribution Points and sentenced him to ten years of service in the Astral Gale Cavern. Tsk, that Blood Race Emperor went pale when they dragged him away. Once word spread, all those old and new faces with a little cultivation and restless ideas behaved themselves."
Fang Chen nodded slightly. That was Lin Xiao's style: swift as thunder, decisive as the wind, and utterly unsparing.
He then asked, "It seems the New Alliance's order is firmly established. But how is the contribution system working? When I entered the city, I saw crowds streaming through the Contribution Halls. They seemed remarkably busy."
Immortal Emperor Yun Yi clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes gleaming. "Daoist Friend Fang Chen, do you know the first thing Alliance Cultivators ask when they meet these days? Not what cultivation stage the other has reached, or what race they come from. They ask, 'How many Contribution Points have you earned lately, Daoist Friend? Know any good missions?'"
He offered an example with enthusiasm.
