There were far too many, far more than they could imagine.
Li Yang originally wanted to say that each person would receive 100 merit points per day, which would basically be comparable to the mission income of the human race's Star Wielders.
For example, when they went to the North District to help fight off the beast tide, no one received a reward of 200 merit points.
However, Li Yang changed it to 50 merit points at the last minute, thinking of giving each of them a Realm-Breaking Pill.
Jiang Yuqing's elixirs cost nothing, so they might as well use them.
Moreover, Jiang Yuqing's Realm-Breaking Pill at least 100 merit points each on the market.
Li Yang just didn't mention it beforehand, so as not to make them overthink.
The fact that each person receives 50 merit points per day is already unbelievable to some of the top players. If they were told that there is also a Realm-Breaking Pill... it would only make them more anxious and uneasy.
In Li Yang's previous life, it would be like an ordinary person earning three or four thousand a month suddenly getting a job that would earn 300,000 in three days—he probably wouldn't think it was a windfall, but would instead open an anti-fraud app and report it.
Who would believe that?
If I actually went to work, let alone earn 300,000, I might even lose a couple of kidneys.
Niu Er said with immense gratitude, "Big Brother, thank you so much!"
Niu Er's family seemed to know Li Yang, and the other Plow Ox Clan also clearly lowered their guard and had the courage to give it a try.
They were at their wits' end.
Even if Li Yang were to trick them into leaving, kill them, and use their ox horns to forge weapons and refine medicine, they would have no choice but to accept it.
It can still live without its horns.
But if they were driven to the Astral Realm, they would only be swallowed up by the beast tide.
Li Yang successfully found the Plow Ox Clan.
Things went very smoothly for Zhong Kun and Yu Hongyuan as well.
As soon as they arrived at the Pill Division, they saw the delicate-looking, beautiful boy.
Jiang Yuqing disappeared wherever they went.
Firstly, he was exceptionally handsome; secondly, the Jiang Family used his image as the trademark for their elixirs, promoting them as their brand ambassadors.
Therefore, he is not only a celebrity in the Central Capital, but also receives much attention in the main city.
Jiang Yuqing calmly accepted the Shock Points coming from all directions.
Some people gave him five points of Shock Points, while others gave him ten points of Shock Points.
At most, he'd Shock Points—not even enough to fill a tooth gap.
Jiang Yuqing missed Li Yang terribly and was planning to "report" to the Nature Department when she unexpectedly ran into Zhong Kun and Yu Hongyuan.
Zhong Kun and Yu Hongyuan were also overjoyed, saying, "You really came to the main city!"
Jiang Yuqing immediately asked, "What, Sister Yang, are you looking for me?"
He's getting more and more used to calling her "Sister Yang" these days.
Zhong Kun said, "Yes, my senior sister said she has something important to discuss with you!"
Upon hearing the word "major event," Jiang Yuqing's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Does she really intend to face the beast tide of the Eastern District herself?"
They were in the Pill Division, surrounded by a group of Star Wielders from the Pill Department.
These Star Wielders originally came to observe their Heavenly Fortune Bearer, but unexpectedly overheard this.
What happened in the East District was no secret; most of the people present knew about it and were quite curious about it.
Zhong Kun glared at Jiang Yuqing and said, "Why are you shouting so loudly!"
Jiang Yuqing said, "What's the big deal? Sister Yang has always been someone who dares to take responsibility for her actions."
Zhong Kun: "..."
He had always thought Jiang Yuqing was mentally ill, and now he was not just thinking it, but absolutely certain of it.
Jiang Yuqing was deliberately speaking loudly; otherwise, how would she have earned those few hundred points of Shock Points?
He had already shocked himself.
Upon arriving in the main city, Jiang Yuqing inquired about Li Yang's situation and learned about the predicament of the Nature Pavilion.
He then contributed 2000 points of Shock Points to himself.
As expected of Li Yang!
He's a man destined for great things!
She, Peak Third Grade Realm, dared to lead several graduates from the Nature Department to face the beast tide head-on!
Unfortunately Jiang Yuqing never experienced the terror of a beast tide.
If he faced the beast tide in the North District head-on, he would probably generate even more Shock Points for himself.
The Star Combat Division sent seven or eight hundred Star Wielders to stop the beast tide... but Li Yang wanted to stop it himself.
That sheer audacity alone would be enough to shock Jiang Yuqing by 2000 points.
Jiang Yuqing was well aware of Li Yang's abilities.
The thought that she had a high probability of succeeding in doing this would generate another 2000 points of Shock Points for me.
However, Jiang Yuqing arrived a step too late. Otherwise, if they had gone on a training mission with the Nature Department, they would have gained 4,000 Shock Points in no time.
Zhong Kun asked, "Are you coming or not?"
Jiang Yuqing declared loudly, "Sister Yang's affairs are my affairs. I, Jiang Yuqing, will serve her wholeheartedly, leading by example and even unto death."
Yu Hongyuan listened intently, his mind racing with alarm bells.
He grew increasingly displeased with Jiang Yuqing.
Why would someone who's perfectly capable of Pill Dao Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer want to steal his subordinate's throne?
Meanwhile, the Star Wielders of the Pill Division... after hearing Jiang Yuqing's shameless remarks, they collectively added another two or three hundred points of Shock Points to his record.
Who would have thought that this Pill Dao Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer, chosen by the Jiang Family as their image ambassador, would be so shameless...
Anyone who heard his sycophantic remarks would be utterly shocked!
Zhong Kun stopped wasting time talking to Jiang Yuqing, that lunatic, and grabbed his arm, saying, "Let's go, let's go!"
They left the Pill Division and headed towards the eastern district.
Lin Zhaoqin and the others who stayed behind at the Nature Pavilion did not expect them to return so quickly.
Li Yang spotted Jiang Yuqing immediately and said, "I need a large quantity of Fast-Acting Star Recovery Pill. Start the furnace."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
Sister Yang, you're really getting more and more impolite.
We just met, and you didn't even offer a greeting, you went straight to starting the alchemy process...
What do you take me for?
I, Pill Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer, have been reduced to your private alchemy furnace?
Jiang Yuqing inwardly grumbled, but her voice was unusually obedient. "OK."
[Shock Points from Lin Zhaoqin +20 points.]
[Shock Points from Zhong Kun +20 points.]
[Shock Points from Yu Hongyuan +30 points.]
Those from the Agronomy Department all contributed to Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points, to varying degrees.
There's no way around it, this person is most likely a masochist, it's shocking!
Li Yang did not bring Niu Niu and his family to the inner city.
Temporary identity cards only allow movement within the outer city; they cannot enter the Nature Pavilion.
Looking at the drafty Nature Pavilion, Li Yang simply said to everyone, "Let's set up camp outside the city!"
The beast tide attacks the outer city walls first, so their Star Plant must also be built outside the outer city walls.
Li Yang roughly had a blueprint in mind, which was based on the team layout of the Star Combat Division.
After breeding, all the Star Plant seeds in Li Yang's hands were replaced with the Peak Third Grade Realm.
This level of cultivation is nothing special in the main city.
It should be noted that Kong Ling was at the Peak Fifth Grade Realm, and the Star Wielders under his command were all around the Fourth Grade Realm, with even a few Fifth Grade Realm deputies.
But Li Yang is all about quantity.
Even if 1,500 Star Plant at the Peak Third Grade Realm have no intelligence, they are still comparable to a 500-person Star Wielders brigade!
Li Yang currently only has 1,000 seeds, but if they work together well these next two days, they should be able to cultivate 1,500 seeds.
The Plow Ox Clan will work together to plant it, and then carefully nurture and cultivate it...
By the third day, the Star Plant should have grown into a mature plant!
After arriving at the outer city, Lin Zhaoqin immediately spotted Little Ox and said excitedly, "Second Brother, can you teach me how to plant Star Plant?"
She wanted to learn it back when she was at the Divine Miracle, but unfortunately there wasn't enough time to study it.
Now is undoubtedly a good time to study.
Li Yang shared this idea, saying, "Let's all learn planting from the oxen and see if we can grasp how to manage Star Plant."
Li Yang trusted Little Ox and thought his family was very reliable.
However, we still need to learn more about the character of other Plow Ox Clan.
People can be good or bad, and so can cows.
Just because they all have big, honest-looking eyes doesn't mean they're all as naive and honest as Niu Er.
Unexpectedly, Mother Cow said, "Of course you can learn it! Our planting techniques were taught by adults from the Nature Department!"
The students in the Department of the Agronomy Department: "..."
Alright, after all this time, it turns out it's still our own skill.
It's quite a sad thought. The lineage of the Nature Department has been completely severed, and they actually have to turn around and learn from the Plow Ox Clan.
Li Yang was quite optimistic. She said, "That's good. At least our Agronomy Department's farming skills have been passed down!"
The person behind it all was too lazy to slaughter this ordinary Plow Ox Clan.
The Plow Ox Clan has never demonstrated its true strength.
They were simply diligently planting crops.
No one would ever think of letting them plant such dangerous Star Plant as Li Yang.
The Plow Ox Clan themselves would not rashly attempt to cultivate Star Plant.
This is too dangerous.
One wrong move and you could be expelled from the Huaxia Main City!
Besides, they only know how to plant, not how to breed.
These Star Plant seeds, if not bred using Nature Department, cannot grow into Star Plant without sentience.
However, intelligent Star Plant will not obey the grower's commands at all.
Not only Lin Zhaoqin, but everyone else got excited too. "How do we plant it?" Everyone wanted to learn.
Feng Yiqiao was also very curious, but he was more mature and composed, saying, "Everyone, don't rush. Let's start breeding together first. Once the seeds are cultivated, we can learn planting from the Plow Ox Clan."
Li Yang replied, "Give me the seeds; you can start learning how to plant them directly."
As she spoke, she had already taken out a petri dish and begun rapid breeding.
With only his own people around him, Li Yang didn't hold back.
