Advance! S-Rank Cultivation Contract!

"Hm?"

"Brother Xiang Shan, what kind of expression is that? You don't believe me?"

Yin Shanyue wore an innocent look.

Xiang Shan: My muscles may be well-developed, but I'm not stupid.

Xiang Shan's towering figure simply stood there quietly, watching Yin Shanyue.

"Ah, you might not believe this, but I came here this time under the orders of the Jiangnan Province Hall Master."

Yin Shanyue said.

Hearing this,

the faint amusement on Xiang Shan's face instantly turned into respect.

Because the Provincial Hall Master of Jiangnan Province was an Azure Vault Realm terrifying expert, one capable of strolling through the starry sky.

He believed that Yin Shanyue would never dare lie to him about something like this.

"Hehehe..."

As Yin Shanyue's longtime subordinate, Wu Xie let out a devilish laugh in his heart.

He considered himself fairly familiar with Yin Shanyue.

He was absolutely a hero of the ages, decisive and ruthless.

This time, having learned of the grudges between Ying Cong, Jiangnan Martial University, and Ye Fan,

he would squeeze the bones until the oil ran out.

"Ye Fan, come in with me."

"Brother Xiang Shan, this way."

Yin Shanyue and Xiang Shan walked ahead, while Ye Fan kept a low profile and followed behind them.

He had once speculated about Hall Master Yin's strength.

He had never expected him to be a Mountain Sea Realm powerhouse!

Yin Shanyue brought Xiang Shan and Ye Fan into the most confidential secret chamber of the Star Martial Hall Jiangning Office.

"So mysterious?"

Xiang Shan was somewhat puzzled.

After the two sat down, Yin Shanyue looked at Xiang Shan solemnly. "Brother Xiang Shan, you and I are both pillars of the Human Race, so naturally you know this.

Blue Star is plagued by troubles within and enemies without. Aside from the savage mutated beasts running rampant, there are also spies from foreign races infiltrating through the dimensional boundaries."

"So, everything seen and heard today must remain within this room. A fourth person absolutely cannot be allowed to know."

Hearing this,

Ye Fan came into contact with the terms "dimensional boundaries" and "foreign races."

There had not been even the slightest introduction to such matters in his high school cultural classes.

Apparently, his level had simply been too low.

Still, after hearing Hall Master Yin's words,

he felt somewhat uneasy.

Just like that classic line: You know too much.

After all, he was merely Spirit Stream Realm Eighth Grade. In the eyes of two Mountain Sea Realm big shots, he was as fragile as an ant.

Were these things really something he should know?

Meanwhile,

after hearing Yin Shanyue's words, Xiang Shan nodded solemnly.

As a Mountain Sea Realm expert among the Human Race, Yin Shanyue would never joke about such a matter.

Then, Yin Shanyue looked at Ye Fan and said, "Kid, stop hiding things.

Tell us about the process through which you nurtured your Dao Seed, as well as its grade and abilities."

"A Dao Seed?!"

Hearing that,

Xiang Shan was so shocked that he nearly rose to his feet.

Only peerless prodigies could possibly nurture such a thing.

It could be said that once someone nurtured a Dao Seed,

as long as the Martial Warrior did not perish, they would have an enormous chance of becoming a demigod!

And demigods

were the pinnacle combat power of Huaxia, even of Blue Star.

They were the beings currently standing atop the tip of the pyramid of human civilization!

Yet Yin Shanyue was saying that this little fellow before them, who had just turned eighteen, had nurtured a Dao Seed?!

Ye Fan was also stunned upon hearing this.

However, his Mental Power now far surpassed that of ordinary people.

His mind was quick as well.

The only time he had publicly used his Dao Seed's abilities had been on the Starry Sky Combat Network.

Combined with Hall Master Yin's earlier mention of the Jiangnan Province Martial Hall Master,

perhaps that terrifying existence had discovered his Dao Seed.

Still,

Ye Fan was puzzled.

Why would such a great figure pay attention to a weakling like him?

"Alright then. Since the wise and mighty Hall Master Yin has already noticed, this kid won't keep pretending."

No matter how much armor one wore, flattery could still pierce through it.

Right from the start, Ye Fan hit him with a rainbow fart straight to the face.

"Enough. Get to the point already."

Yin Shanyue said with a smile that was harder to suppress than an AK's recoil.

Xiang Shan, meanwhile, stared at Ye Fan with utter disbelief.

Just as Yin Shanyue had said, if Ye Fan had truly nurtured a Dao Seed,

then this news had to be buried in the snow.

Otherwise, if the foreign races learned of it,

they would definitely stop at nothing to assassinate Ye Fan.

"Reporting to the two venerable ones, this junior relied on the Peerless Overlord Spear to reach the realm of Transcendent Saint, then, through a fortunate coincidence, nurtured a Dao Seed."

"Dao Seed: Bingyan, Ninth Grade.

It possesses three abilities..."

Next, Ye Fan introduced the abilities of Dao Seed: Bingyan to the two Mountain Sea Realm powerhouses.

After listening,

Xiang Shan came to a sudden realization. "No wonder your spear technique was so formidable in the Starry Sky Combat Network that day.

And at the crucial moment, you shifted that little girl's protective spirit artifact several inches, allowing you to defeat her."

It could be said that

Ye Fan's performance in the thirtieth promotion match that day remained fresh in Xiang Shan's mind even now.

Ye Fan was somewhat speechless.

What, were these big shots normally so free, or did they have some kind of voyeuristic habit?

Xiang Shan knew every detail of his performance?

In truth, Ye Fan, who did not understand the situation, had indeed misunderstood Xiang Shan.

"Impressive, impressive!"

Yin Shanyue could not help but praise him as well.

Although it was merely the lowest Ninth Grade Dao Seed,

every one of its abilities was incredibly overpowered.

That was the terror of Dao Seeds. It was precisely these rule-breaking abilities

that made them so exceedingly rare.

They were one in a hundred million!

"Ye Fan, are you willing to accept an S-Rank Cultivation Contract from our Star Martial Hall?!"

Yin Shanyue gazed at Ye Fan with blazing eyes.

He felt both admiration and envy toward this little fellow.

The younger generation was truly formidable!

Through the Mature Sister AI, Ye Fan had already learned the requirements for advancing to the Star Martial Hall's S-Rank contract, so he was not surprised.

But he had not expected to advance in this manner.

"With an S-Rank Cultivation Contract, your annual funding will be raised to fifty million, and your Martial Hall points will likewise be raised to fifty million.

Your Martial Hall privileges would also be upgraded to Starshine Level.

As for the specific contents of those privileges, you can review them in the contract.

Every year, you will also receive a heavenly treasure capable of increasing your vitality and blood.

And you will have the opportunity to participate in the Starry Sky Seed Martial Warrior Selection."

"Moreover, Chief Hall Master Ai has promised that if you advance to an S-Rank Cultivation Contract, he will grant you a treasure coveted by countless Martial Warriors."

Yin Shanyue proceeded to drop one bombshell after another.

They left Ye Fan dizzy for a moment.

Every single one of these benefits was something Ye Fan from a month ago would not even have dared dream about.

Never mind the cultivation funds and Martial Hall points.

The Martial Warrior privileges alone filled Ye Fan with anticipation.

After all, the previous Diamond Privileges had saved Ye Fan's family and even let him trade a bird gun for a cannon, transforming magnificently in one stroke.

Starshine Level was certainly exciting enough.

Every year, he would even receive a heavenly treasure that enhanced vitality and blood.

Anything that could be called a heavenly treasure by a Martial Warrior of Hall Master Yin's level was absolutely priceless and unavailable on the market.

Then there was the Starry Sky Seed Martial Warrior Selection. Although he did not know what it was, it sounded incredibly impressive.

As for the Hall Master wanting to give him a treasure,

was he really being this generous?

He loved it, he loved it.

As one powerful figure had once said: When you are unknown, villains fill the land.

But once you become famous, good people surround you.

Ye Fan knew that all of this required strength to defend.

Grow stronger, and keep growing stronger!

"I'm willing..."

Ye Fan was about to nod.

"Wait..."
