Huh?
Si Miaoyin froze, not expecting Li Xuanxiao to choose that hall in the end.
Of the Demon Slayer Division's eight halls, the Mission Hall was the loosest.
Strictly speaking, it did not even count as a proper hall.
It was more like a shared place for accepting missions.
Not only were its members scattered, disorganized, and undisciplined, but its rules and regulations were little more than empty words.
The other halls mockingly called the Mission Hall the Retirement Hall. Its members could do nothing at all and still maintain their status as Demon Slayer Division members.
The other halls all had ranks and various assessments.
Martial artists who failed to meet the requirements could very well be expelled from the Demon Slayer Division!
Only the Mission Hall had almost no mandatory assessments!
Martial artists who joined the Mission Hall were generally branded as people with no ambition and no desire to improve.
Si Miaoyin suddenly felt somewhat disappointed. He clearly had such outstanding talent, yet he did not think of going further or cherishing it properly.
Honestly...
Her entire demeanor suddenly sank a little. "Oh, I see..."
"Then I wish you a bright future. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first."
Watching Si Miaoyin inexplicably become dejected, Li Xuanxiao was utterly baffled for a moment.
A woman's heart was a needle at the bottom of the sea.
Li Xuanxiao could not be bothered to think about it and turned to walk straight toward the Demon Slayer Division.
He still had plenty of things to do!
After joining the Demon Slayer Division, the first thing he needed to do was get himself a good blade!
His Constable Blade had been scrapped during this mission. A martial artist could not go without a weapon!
Then there were flight martial arts, which were also of utmost importance.
He planned to begin slaughtering demons and exterminating devils at high intensity, so he would often need to travel long distances.
Clearly, under such circumstances, flying through the sky would be faster!
Lastly came acquiring other cultivation techniques and martial arts, which should originally have been first on the list.
But thanks to that windfall in the Scripture Repository,
he now had Profound Realm-grade cultivation techniques and martial arts.
So in this regard, he was instead not particularly lacking at the moment.
He could only say that he still needed them, but not urgently.
A few more books would certainly be icing on the cake!
From several battles, he had already deeply realized that every cultivation technique and martial art had somewhere it could show its value.
So when it came to these things, the more the merrier!
However, the premise for the more the merrier was that he possessed enough Demon Points to upgrade them.
In other words, he still had to kill more demons and devils!
Thus, everything formed a perfect closed loop.
After sorting out his plans, Li Xuanxiao submitted his application to join the Demon Slayer Division.
When asked about his realm, he hesitated slightly before ultimately saying that he was at the Profound Realm First Layer.
At his age, the Profound Realm Eighth Layer was simply too astonishing.
Even throughout the entire history of the Great Yu Dynasty, it would likely be difficult to find a second person like him.
But he had not expected that even the Profound Realm First Layer would draw many sidelong glances.
It seemed that even the Profound Realm First Layer at his age already counted as extraordinary talent.
After recording Li Xuanxiao's information and the hall he wished to join,
the staff member gave Li Xuanxiao a Jade Token and told him to go back and wait for notification.
Holding the Jade Token, Li Xuanxiao gave a faint bitter smile. In a daze, he felt that the process was remarkably similar to job interviews in his previous life.
But if they told you to go back and wait for notification in his previous life, there was an eighty or ninety percent chance that you were done for.
Too lazy to dwell on it, Li Xuanxiao simply began wandering around inside the Demon Slayer Division.
There was nothing to do for the time being anyway. Without a weapon, there was no point thinking about going out to slaughter demons and exterminate devils.
He wandered as he looked around.
Naturally, he could not enter the interior of the various halls.
After all, he was not yet an official Demon Slayer Division member, so he could only roam the public areas.
He familiarized himself with the different areas of the Demon Slayer Division and broadened his horizons while he was at it.
Elixir Workshop, Herb Pavilion, Technique Tower, Divine Armament Directorate...
After making a round of the place, Li Xuanxiao had truly seen quite a lot.
As expected of the Pei Province Demon Slayer Division. He had not properly looked around last time, but this time, his horizons had truly been broadened.
All kinds of spiritual pills and miraculous medicines, all manner of rare heavenly treasures and earthly materials...
Extreme Realm and even Profound Realm martial arts and cultivation techniques, along with martial artist weapons that looked immensely extraordinary at a glance!
Li Xuanxiao's eyes reddened with envy as he looked, wishing he could sweep them all into his arms.
Unfortunately, most of them required Contribution Points for exchange and trade, and he had not officially joined the Demon Slayer Division yet.
Naturally, he had no Contribution Points.
At the thought of Contribution Points, Li Xuanxiao suddenly remembered what Liu Gelin had said.
"If you join the Demon Slayer Division, you can come find me at the Law Enforcement Hall!"
Thinking of this, Li Xuanxiao immediately changed direction and headed for the Law Enforcement Hall.
Outside the Law Enforcement Hall, after waiting for the guards to report his arrival, Li Xuanxiao was led into the main hall.
Liu Gelin, who was leafing through a register, slowly raised his head to look at Li Xuanxiao, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"Have you decided to join the Demon Slayer Division?"
Li Xuanxiao saluted. "Yes, Lord Liu."
Liu Gelin nodded. "Do you have a hall in mind?"
Li Xuanxiao immediately replied, "I have decided to join the Mission Hall."
"Oh?"
Liu Gelin raised a brow, somewhat surprised. "The Mission Hall? Do you understand the duties and differences of each hall?"
Li Xuanxiao nodded. "I have already asked Lady Miaoyin about the information concerning each hall."
"Even so, you still choose to join the Mission Hall..."
Liu Gelin let out a soft sigh. He had originally been quite inclined to recruit Li Xuanxiao under his command.
After all, among the Demon Slayer Division's eight halls, there was both cooperation and competition between them.
When the various resources distributed by the Demon Slayer Division's royal capital headquarters reached the Demon Slayer Division branches in each province, they would also be redistributed.
The basis for allocation was the overall contributions of each hall.
Therefore, every hall would recruit and train outstanding martial artists, increasing their total contributions and thereby raising the resources their hall could receive.
If Li Xuanxiao could join the Law Enforcement Hall, it would be a great thing for their Law Enforcement Hall.
Liu Gelin would also devote more resources toward nurturing Li Xuanxiao.
But now, it seemed that the other party had already made his decision.
"So be it..."
Liu Gelin smiled. Everyone had their own aspirations; there was no need to force it.
"I'll convert the merit I mentioned before into Contribution Points for you now."
Hearing this, Li Xuanxiao immediately thanked him.
Liu Gelin took a Jade Token from his sleeve. "There are 500 Contribution Points in here. You can exchange them for all kinds of resources you need in the relevant areas of the Demon Slayer Division."
He casually tossed it to Li Xuanxiao.
After a pause, Liu Gelin spoke again. "If you change your mind, you can come find me."
"I still think highly of you!"
Li Xuanxiao caught the Jade Token and thanked him again. "Thank you, Lord Liu!"
Liu Gelin nodded and said nothing more.
Li Xuanxiao also tactfully took his leave.
The moment he left the Law Enforcement Hall, Li Xuanxiao's face lit up with delight.
Five hundred Contribution Points was no small amount!
During his earlier tour, he had seen many fine blades at the Divine Armament Directorate! They could be exchanged for only around a hundred Contribution Points.
What was he waiting for? Li Xuanxiao immediately changed direction and headed straight for the Divine Armament Directorate.
With a stronger weapon, his combat strength would rise by another great margin!
