Cultivation: Just sit still-just stay awake-just stay alive

"A rare genius junior from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land?"

Beneath the mask, a smile crept onto Lu Changzhi's lips.

He knew, of course, that this was a reason the other party made up in order to raise the price.

But it was a lucky coincidence, like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse.

Even with Xiao Ye's system, the simplification of realms alone is this much, not to mention the simplifications in other aspects.

With such a system in place, it would be difficult for the company not to become powerful.

Without dwelling on it, Lu Changzhi focused his mind, and with a thought, a storage ring appeared in his hand.

With a gentle flick, the storage ring flew to the opponent's front.

The other person accepted it, and their eyes immediately lit up.

This time, we really hit the jackpot!

The person before me was incredibly arrogant in his attack.

At that moment, he smiled and said:

"Sir, do you have any other requests?"

"Xiao Ye has failed the assessment. If anything unexpected happens next, the Holy Land won't make any statement. If you want something to happen to him..."

The elder did not continue speaking.

Anyone who participates in the Cloud Heaven Holy Land assessment is assumed to have a chance of passing the assessment while the results are pending.

If someone is maliciously killed by others at this time, the assessment elder representing the Cloud Heaven Holy Land cannot stand by and watch.

If you fail the assessment, you will no longer receive protection.

Lu Changzhi frowned.

It seems the assessment process is more complex than I initially thought.

Not only can they disqualify someone, but they can even cover accidents.

That's really interesting.

"No need."

After saying that, Lu Changzhi got up and left.

"What a pity."

After Lu Changzhi left, the elder shook his head.

The previous person had this intention, but they couldn't reach an agreement because of the price.

Surprisingly, this person doesn't even seem interested.

Otherwise, if the people in front of him take action, he won't have to do anything and can still get a free benefit.

Soon, night Descent.

The Purple Forest City suddenly became even more lively.

Just then, someone shouted:

The assessment results are in!

These words immediately caused a sensation throughout the streets and alleys.

In an instant, everyone rushed out and headed towards where the results were displayed.

"Damn it, come back here, you guys haven't paid for your meal yet!"

"Pay up, or we won't open the door. Don't think you can eat and drink for free just because there are a lot of people!"

"Boss, I'm leaving now. I'll definitely pay you for your meal after I pass the test."

For a time, it was both chaotic and spectacular.

Soon, the locations where the results were announced were packed with people.

Heads shoved together, a cacophony of voices buzzing with discussion.

Those who succeed are happy, while those who fail are sad.

The noise was deafening.

Xiao Ye stood at the back of the crowd, his divine sense probing forward.

After a moment, he frowned:

"Huh? I'm really not included?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the system's voice sounded in his mind:

"Your Highness is still young, and the world is complex; you cannot handle it."

Xiao Ye did not refute this, but nodded:

"You're Tongtong right. It seems I need to go and learn from that senior, to buy myself more time to grow stronger before venturing into the world."

As he spoke, Xiao Ye looked around and said softly:

"I just wonder where that senior is now."

After waiting for a moment, Xiao Ye walked out of the crowd.

At this moment, Lu Changzhi stepped forward, came to Xiao Ye's side, and asked:

"How?"

Xiao Ye took a deep breath and spoke:

"Junior Xiao Ye wishes to become your disciple, senior."

After speaking, Xiao Ye solemnly knelt down and bowed to Lu Changzhi.

At the same time, the system's voice sounded in Lu Changzhi's mind:

"Congratulations, host, on completing your fourth apprentice recruitment mission. You have received: 10,000 experience points and Disciple Acceptance Gift Pack."

"This time it was much simpler."

Lu Changzhi sighed inwardly.

Unexpectedly, on his very first day in the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, he had already encountered this.

Originally, I thought I would have to sift through all the assessment points on the map.

I just don't know if this counts as a bonus from Jin Fugui.

Regaining his composure, Lu Changzhi looked at Xiao Ye, who had stood up, and said:

"Now that you've become my disciple, come back with me."

Xiao Ye hesitated for a moment, then said:

"I wonder how far away your location is from here, senior?"

Lu Changzhi thought for a moment and asked:

"But are there other things?"

Xiao Ye nodded. "I plan to go home and tell them the news, so they can rest assured."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi nodded and said:

"Let's do it together then."

As they spoke, Lu Changzhi took out the flying boat.

The Void Shuttle has rather unique characteristics, and being from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, only one Spirit Rank flying boat was taken out.

After inquiring about the location of the Xiao Clan, the two boarded a flying boat and headed towards the distance.

On the flying boat, looking at Xiao Ye sitting cross-legged, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but feel a little curious:

Even if it's simplified, is practice still necessary?

Upon hearing this, the system responded:

"Master, even with my current system simplification level, I still need to maintain a cultivation posture during Xiao Ye."

"Um?"

Lu Changzhi's expression shifted:

"And what about the process of cultivation?"

"No, Master. You just need to sit cross-legged."

"What if we continue to simplify it?"

Lu Changzhi asked again.

The system remained silent for a moment before displaying the following to Lu Changzhi:

"Just sitting is enough—just being awake is enough—just being alive is enough."

For some reason, Lu Changzhi suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for Mu Fan.

If this trend continues, and with further simplification, it will be just as good as other methods for offline cultivation.

"Thinking about it, after the upgrade, we should be able to unlock the level 3 shop around the same time."

Lu Changzhi thought for a moment.

Then we can strengthen the disciple system.

"But don't they all have systems?"

Lu Changzhi suddenly thought of Jin Fugui and Qin Li.

Everyone else has a system, and strengthening it will definitely lead to a significant improvement, but these two are different.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi asked:

When will the lottery that was triggered last time be triggered again?

The system responded, saying:

"Yes, Master, I don't know."

Lu Changzhi: "..."

At this moment, the system said again:

"Based on what Master just said, the system guesses that Master wants them all to have systems, right?"

"Smart." Lu Changzhi nodded.

"Master, there's no need to rush. Once the shop is upgraded to level four, the Disciple Trial will be available. After disciples pass and complete the designated trials, they will receive a personalized system tailored to their needs to aid their growth."

After a pause, the system continued:

"Furthermore, after the master upgrades to level 5 in the shop, the system's bond draw will be unlocked. When disciples with system bond relationships are within a specified range, they will receive additional effects. In addition..."

After listening, Lu Changzhi remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"System, have you ever heard of this idiom?"

The system paused for a moment, then said, "Master, is the future promising?"

"No."

Lu Changzhi took a deep breath and said:

"It's gotten even worse."

The last time I made empty promises to him was the last time.

This time, I actually learned how to draw two of myself at once.

That's absolutely outrageous!

Sure enough, pie doesn't fall from the sky, but painted pie does!

Suddenly, a system notification popped up in front of me:

"Ma Biao and his men are following you and Xiao Ye, intending to kill them. What do you choose?"

"I. Shake them off. [Reward: Saint Rank High Grade Movement Technique 'Phantom Body Running Art' *1.]"

"Second, kill them. [Reward: Saint Rank Peak Grade Talisman - Heaven-Burning Flame Domain *1]"

"Third, help Xiao Ye resolve his troubles, and wipe them out along with the Ma Clan. [Reward: Saint Rank Peak Grade Secret Treasure - Eminent Monk's Buddha Bone *1.]"
