The Infinite Mystery

Chapter 89 - Generous Reward

When Qin Feng had completed his breakthrough and stood up, he discovered that it was already close to noon.

It was also at this moment that the main examiner announced that today is the last day. The result will be decided today.

The reason for his decision was precisely Qin Feng. Qin Feng's talent has already been known to everyone now. They all knew that he has the talent to become the Heaven Ascension Realm cultivator.

He might still continue to climb the Nine Sky Stairway but there was not much hope that he could reach the 99th step. In the last 500 years, there was not a single person who reached the 99th step.

Even if Qin Feng could reach the 99th step, the main examiner, as well as the white-robbed principal, did not want him to do that because there were many enemies of the Heavenly Star Sect.

Even with Qin Feng's current achievement on the Nine Sky Stairway, they will still try to find a way to kill him. After all, who would want their enemy to nurture a talent that might become one of the most lethal killing weapons of the Heavenly Star Sect that could kill them anytime he wants.

If Qin Feng were to reach the 99th step, the enemies of the Heavenly Star Sect's desire to kill Qin Feng would become even stronger and they would not give up until they killed Qin Feng.

So, they did not want Qin Feng to climb to the 99th step because of which they decided to put an end to this competition by saying that today is the last day.

  Qin Feng could not understand why the Heavenly Star Sect decided to end the competition today. He still wanted to climb further. Maybe, after reaching the 99th step, he once again makes a breakthrough.

Well, there was no such chance now. It takes a long period of time to take a step further on the Nine Sky Stairway. In the remaining hour, it was impossible for him to reach the 99th step so he did not waste any time climbing further. He once again sat down cross-legged and began to consolidate his breakthrough and stabilize his cultivation.

Soon, this day was also over and the new result was out.

First place still belonged to Qin Feng: 90th step.

The second place belonged to Mu Bai: 81st step.

During the time period of an entire day, he was only able to take two steps forward, stepping on the 81st step from the 79th step. This also showed that he has the talent to become a Profound Spirit Realm cultivator.

The third place belonged to Yu Han and Yan Xue. Both were able to climb to the 80th step. Although slightly inferior to Mu Bai, they still had the talent to become Profound Spirit Realm cultivators.

Rank four to nine belong to other geniuses of the Blue Star Country.

It was surprising the Ding Jia Le was able to rank tenth. He was currently at 72md step. This also showed that he has the talent to become a Golden Core Realm cultivator.

In the Mao Family of the Cloud City, he was not valued by anyone because of two reasons. The first reason was that he was not a member of the Mao Family and the second reason was that no one believes that he cane ever step his foot in the Golden Core Realm because even in his Ding Clan before it was destroyed, there had never been a cultivator at the Golden Core Realm.

Mao Tingxia was also able to climb to the 70th step, showing her talent to reach the Golden Core Realm in the future. But she was not included in the top ten rankings.

Well, after the result was announced, the Main Examiner said, "Fourth to Tenth place will receive 1000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones and one Origin Pill."

Origin Pill was something that can increase the success of one's breakthrough below the Late Stage of the Innate Realm. The lower the cultivation is, the higher the success rate of making a breakthrough in cultivation is.

The main examiner again announced, "The Third place will receive 2000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, one Origin Pill, and one Low-Grade Profound Rank Battle Skill."

"The second place will receive 3000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, two Origin Pills, and one Middle-Grade Profound Rank Battle Skill."

"As for the first place, he will receive 5000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, three Origin Pills, and one High-Grade Profound Rank Battle Skill."

Hearing the first reward, everyone was shocked. This kind of reward was very generous for anyone below the Golden Core Realm in the entire Blue Star Country. A High-Grade Profound Rank Battle Skill was very rare even in the Blue Star Country after all.

Qin Feng was in this world for around one month already. He already knew many things about this world, such as the Battle Skills in this world was also divided into four ranks. But these four ranks were not Ordinary, Lord, King, or Emperor Rank. In this world, Battle Skills were divided into Yellow, Profound, Earth, and Heaven Rank.

Each Rank was further divided into three grades: Low Grade, Middle Grade, and High Grade.

Even in this world, Heaven Rank Battle Skills were very rare. So it was no injustice for an Emperor Rank Battle Skill to not appear in a Low Levelled Planet like the Earth.

Although on the planet earth, everyone knew that there exist Emperor Rank Battle Skills but such rank of battle skills never appeared on earth. The highest rank Battle Skill that has appeared on earth is that of King Rank.

The main examiner told them that they could choose Battle Skills from the Skill Pavilion after entering the Heavenly Star Sect. For now, he distributed the other rewards to the top ten.

After distributing the rewards, the Main Examiner gave everyone their identification token that will prove that the holder of this token has successfully become the Outer Court Disciple of the Heavenly Star Sect.

After telling the disciples that they can enter the sect tomorrow, the Main Examiner disappeared from everyone's sight. Before disappearing, he took a close look at Qin Feng and revealed a satisfied smile, and sent a voice transmission to him, saying that someone will receive him tomorrow.

After the Main Examiner disappeared, Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le went to Qin Feng and congratulated him for gaining the first rank. Qin Feng revealed an emotionless smile. He doesn't know why but he felt kind of bored at the thought of entering the sect.

Well, no matter what, he has to enter the sect to increase his knowledge about this world.

.....

The next day, Qin Feng entered the Heavenly Star Sect with Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le. They followed other disciples and arrived at a location where the disciples of the Heavenly Star Sect were giving the sect uniform to the newly accepted disciples.

Everyone received uniforms and along with them, they also received another token with a number inscribed on it. This was the number of the cave where they were going to live in the Heavenly Star Sect.

Qin Feng was an exception. He did not receive the token with the cave number inscribed on it. Instead, he was again told that someone will come and receive him.

Qin Feng nodded his head and started to wait for the person who was coming to receive him. As for now, he told Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le to go to their cave and cultivate.

"Hey, are you a new student?" A person finally walked over to Qin Feng after making him wait for more than ten minutes.

"That's right!" Qin Feng drew out the proof showing that he had passed the examination and handed it over to that person. That man was a cultivator at the Early Stage of the Golden Core Realm, and definitely not someone to be underestimated.

He received the identification token from Qin Feng, took a look, and could not help showing a surprised expression. He blurted out, "You are Qin Feng?"

Seeing his surprised gaze, Qin Feng immediately understood that he was not the person who was here to receive him.

Qin Feng scratched his head, and asked, "Am I very well-known?"

"Hahahaha, you, on the Nine Sky Stairway, broke through two times continuously without exploding to death. There had never been anyone who has successfully broken through on the Nine Sky Stairway. What is more, you were actually able to climb to the 90th step of the Nine Sky Stairway. Such talent, tsk, tsk." That person immediately showed his enthusiasm the moment he heard that the person opposite to him was Qin Feng.

Qin Feng only smiled at the man in front of him. He was not interested in listening to his complement. He was still waiting for the person who was coming to receive him. He wanted to know the reason why his treatment was different from other newly accepted disciples.
