More and more people from all over the world were arriving at the Immortal Cultivation Era Plaza. The plaza, which was originally bare, had a green belt created by Li Qingyun’s efforts throughout the day.
However, he was still just a novice at the late stage of Qi Refining. After nurturing seven or eight trees, he would exhaust his internal spiritual energy.
Looking at the design sketch in his hand, Li Qingyun managed a bitter smile.
At this rate, it would take him three days to finish. Earning this Foundation Establishment Pill wasn't going to be easy.
But he didn't complain. After all, the spiritual energy concentration here was so high that his cultivation speed was vastly different from outside.
By nightfall, except for a few who couldn’t bear to wait any longer, everyone was eagerly anticipating the opening of the Cultivation Technique Pavilion.
At this moment, Chu Yang appeared in everyone’s sight.
He arrived with the wind, hovering in the air, drawing exclamations from the crowd!
Chu Yang checked the time and then extended his hand forward, pressing down: “Everyone, please calm down. Listen to me for a moment.”
As he spoke, he exerted some pressure.
Everyone felt their breathing seize, sensing the overwhelming aura of someone in the late Nascent Soul stage, which silenced the exclamations they were about to voice.
“First, I want to thank you all for your enthusiasm, but I want to say that you really don’t need to be in such a hurry. This Cultivation Technique Pavilion is here, permanently. Everyone can enter and obtain cultivation techniques for free as long as they follow the order. At this pace, are you all going to wait until dawn?”
Everyone looked at each other. What he said made sense, but could they really stop being anxious just because he told them to?
Getting ahead of others meant stepping into the immortal cultivation world ahead of them.
Even a minute earlier was still earlier. It wasn't about the method, but purely about the desire to win.
“Don’t worry, I’m not sleepy! I’ll just wait here!”
“How about you, big brother, make an exception and open it early?”
“If I can’t get the first bite, can’t I still get the second or third bite?”
“……”
In short, everyone had traveled a long distance to be here and didn’t want to miss the opportunity to enter the pavilion first.
Moreover, it wasn’t just Meng Zibin; most people actually fantasized about being the protagonist.
Many were viewers of the live stream, ordinary guys who might be able to change their destiny by obtaining a cultivation technique.
There were also many streamers from other platforms who were already coveting this traffic. They felt anxious even if they were a minute behind others.
Seeing that he couldn’t persuade them, Chu Yang shook his head helplessly. He looked at the army present, which was helping to maintain order.
These soldiers had been maintaining order all day, and it wouldn’t be right for him to not show any appreciation.
So he continued to say to everyone: “Since you don’t want to leave, so be it. After all, your legs are your own. I will open it early…”
Before the cheers could erupt, Chu Yang interrupted them directly and continued, “But not for you. The staff here have been helping to maintain order all day, and I will allow them to use it first. You can also watch to see what the process is like.”
The soldiers standing guard were momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.
They were all ordinary people. How could they be indifferent to such a thing?
However, because they had to obey orders, even though they were tempted, they didn’t dare to reach out and touch the stone.
All the soldiers on duty turned to look at their leader, Wang Zhicheng.
Wang Zhicheng held a high position, but because of the significance of what Chu Yang had created, he had made the decision for this project. Therefore, he had to come to inspect it personally.
Wang Zhicheng was naturally delighted and quickly roared, “What are you standing around for? Follow the orders of the Immortal Brother!”
“Then what about guarding duty…”
Chu Yang flicked his finger, and a wisp of red flame illuminated the night.
The flame that burst forth transformed into fire crows.
These fire crows flapped their wings and landed beside the soldiers.
Chu Yang said, “Don’t worry, no one will cause trouble.”
Witnessing such a miraculous method, the crowd realized that the man before them was far more formidable than they had imagined.
The viewers who had been restless, seeing these fire crows lined up in front, offered sheepish smiles.
“What about the trust with our families?”
“Who do you think you’re looking down on? With you here, who would dare violate discipline?”
“That’s right, we are all law-abiding citizens!”
“Are there any privileges for a Level 13 fan badge?”
“……”
These fire crows circled the plaza, connecting one after another to form a fiery barrier, isolating the long-waiting viewers outside.
A soldier holding a gun might show you leniency, but the merciless flames would burn you to ashes.
Chu Yang coughed twice and said seriously, “There are no privileges. Everyone is treated equally! This early opening is a reward for these military brothers who worked tirelessly to help stand guard all day. Below, I will introduce you to the process.”
He flashed to the side of the [Aptitude Assessment Stone] and said, “As you can see, this is the [Aptitude Assessment Stone] I mentioned in the live stream. I suggest you all try it before entering the Cultivation Technique Pavilion. Just touch it, and your aptitude will be digitized and displayed clearly.”
“The setting of the Cultivation Technique Pavilion is that it matches three cultivation techniques based on your own aptitude. Then, you choose one out of the three. It’s very important to decide what type of cultivation technique you need to cultivate based on your aptitude. Once you cultivate a technique, you cannot go back. If you change techniques, you can only switch to similar types, unless you choose to re-cultivate.”
“And yesterday, when my boss, Miss Xue, used her privilege for priority testing, she thought all three cultivation techniques belonged to her and wanted to take them directly. In the end, she only took one, and it wasn’t even the type that best matched her aptitude. Everyone who is about to enter, and everyone waiting outside, should take heed of this warning!”
Li Qingyun noticed his phone vibrate and took it out to see a message from Xue Qianwei in the group chat.
“Rich Woman Who Likes to Play with Fire - Xue Qianwei”: [Sweating face emoji]! /
Everyone: “Hahahahaha!”
The people present also burst into laughter, but they all took it to heart, as it was a very important rule.
“Also, humanity needs geniuses. Anyone whose aptitude reaches the upper grade will be rewarded with a mid-grade spirit stone. For cultivators at Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, spirit stones can significantly boost your cultivation. If a peerless genius appears, my genius training plan will be triggered. You will join the group chat I created, and if there are opportunities in the future, I will prioritize giving them to you.”
Listening to Chu Yang’s words, Li Qingyun, Luo Xiaowei, and others were stunned for a moment, then their hearts began to pound.
They might not be peerless geniuses, but they had already benefited and been pulled into the group by Chu Yang.
This meant that they also had a chance at the preferential opportunities Chu Yang had mentioned!
