11: Chapter 11: Manager Tian's Shock at Being Personally Greeted

Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the God-level mission. Mission rewards are being distributed---

Congratulations to the host for receiving the mission reward: 3000 ability points, A-rank Martial Art [Space Dimensional Slash] (Upgradable). Does the host wish to comprehend it now?

Huh? I can comprehend it even before reaching the Martial Artist Realm? Then what are we waiting for? Comprehend it for me!

Lin Yuan was overjoyed. The Martial Arts provided by the system were heaven-defying; he could actually learn it while still in the Body Tempering Realm.

Comprehending Martial Arts, please wait---

Lin Yuan suddenly felt something new appear in his mind. The method for releasing [Space Dimensional Slash] had been mastered.

Congratulations to the host, Martial Art comprehension successful. Opening system panel now---

host: Lin Yuan

Ability: S-rank Spatial Ability

Martial Arts Level: Body Tempering Peak

Combat Power: 6800 [Upgradable]

Martial Arts: Space Dimensional Slash (Beginner) [Upgradable]

Skill: Spirit Devouring

ability points: 3200 points

Lin Yuan didn't have time to test the Martial Art. After devouring the soul bodies of the two followers, he quickly left the area to avoid being discovered.

He didn't need to worry about the three corpses at all; fierce beasts were already approaching, and they would help him clean up the mess.

Lin Yuan went directly to the exit and stepped out, quickly appearing on the high platform outside.

A staff member immediately came forward, smiling, and asked:

Sir, congratulations on completing your exploration of Gloomy Valley. Do you have any materials to sell? You can check our exchange office; our prices are very fair.

Okay, thank you. I have two beast crystals to sell,” Lin Yuan replied with a smile.

The price for beast crystals was very transparent. While they might offer lower prices for other materials here, beast crystals would not be discounted; this item was in high demand.

Hearing this, the staff member happily led the way for Lin Yuan.

After exchanging the beast crystals, Lin Yuan’s card gained 100,000 great xia coin. He now had a total of 150,000 in his account.

Lin Yuan called Manager Tian of the Martial Artist Alliance in advance to say he was coming over, then hailed a taxi and headed to the Martial Artist Alliance.

His Martial Arts Level had improved, and getting it certified could earn him some great xia coin. The main reason he notified Manager Tian early was that with him around, the funds would arrive faster...

Lin Yuan was still quite short on money. He wanted to buy a more comfortable, larger house for his family before he started university.

In the taxi, Lin Yuan checked his ability points; he still had 3400 points. He planned to upgrade his Martial Arts proficiency.

After upgrading twice consecutively, his Martial Arts proficiency reached Advanced, consuming 2000 ability points.

"[Space Dimensional Slash] has reached Advanced proficiency. I still have 1400 ability points. I should maximize my combat power before the Martial Arts Examination, all in!"

Opening System Panel---

Combat Power: 7500

Martial Arts: Space Dimensional Slash (Advanced)

ability points: 0 points

Lin Yuan looked at the system panel and nodded with satisfaction. The Void Rift was truly a good place for him; he should visit often if he had the chance in the future...

At the entrance of the Martial Artist Alliance, Manager Tian, accompanied by Xiao Min, had been waiting early. They took figures like Lin Yuan, geniuses, very seriously and had to show them sufficient respect.

Outside the main gate, the passing crowd immediately began to buzz.

Look quickly, Manager Tian is personally welcoming people at the entrance. Is some big shot arriving?

Maybe, or maybe some genius Martial Artist is coming.

Brother Wang, you broke through to Body Tempering Mid-stage. Your appointment was for this time for certification, right? Manager Tian might not be here to welcome you.

Someone said to a Middle-aged man in his thirties next to him. The Middle-aged man called Brother Wang was startled.

He was a little uncertain in his heart. Was he really the one being welcomed? But he still said:

Impossible, right? I just broke through to Body Tempering Mid-stage. It’s unlikely they’re here to welcome me---

Why impossible? Although you aren't some genius Martial Artist, for someone your age to break through to Body Tempering Mid-stage is already very impressive. It’s normal for the Martial Artist Alliance to value you,” the person continued to flatter him.

Exactly, exactly. Old Wang, stop being modest. You must take care of your brothers later on,”

Brother Wang really has prestige. Even Manager Tian is personally welcoming him. Amazing, amazing---

Someone immediately chimed in, buttering up Brother Wang.

I'll do my best, I'll do my best, haha---Everyone, I'll go get certified first,”

After Brother Wang finished speaking, he swaggered toward Manager Tian.

Haha---Manager Tian, how embarrassing of you to come out to greet me personally,”

But Manager Tian seemed not to hear his words, his eyes constantly fixed on the road opposite.

Just then, a taxi pulled up to the Martial Artist Alliance entrance. Manager Tian spotted Lin Yuan in the car at a glance, and a smile immediately spread across his face.

Move aside! Move aside!”,

Manager Tian shoved Brother Wang aside and rushed toward the taxi, respectfully opening the car door.

Lin Yuan got out of the car and gave Manager Tian and Xiao Min a slight smile. “Manager Tian, you are too kind.”

It’s what I should do, it’s what I should do, Mr. Lin, please come inside quickly,” Manager Tian quickly ushered Lin Yuan inside.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and walked toward the hall.

Brother Wang was so embarrassed at that moment he wished he could find a crack in the floor to crawl into. They were welcoming that young genius Martial Artist; with his level of talent, how could he possibly receive such treatment---

Lin Yuan followed the two into the Martial Artist Alliance hall. Manager Tian asked:

Mr. Lin, what brings you here today?

To certify my Martial Arts Level,” Lin Yuan said calmly.

Martial Arts Level? Mr. Lin, didn't you just certify last week?” Xiao Min asked, confused.

Manager Tian was also bewildered. Yes, he had indeed certified before.

Yes, I certified before, but that was for Body Tempering Mid-stage. I’m here today to certify Body Tempering Peak,” Lin Yuan smiled faintly.

Body Tempering Peak---Peak?”,

Manager Tian’s voice immediately rose several octaves, drawing the attention of the surrounding crowd, who all looked over.

Xiao Min also widened her eyes in shock, tightly covering her small mouth with both hands.

Manager Tian immediately realized his lapse in composure, quickly covered his mouth, and asked with wide, round eyes in a lowered voice, “Mr. Lin, are you sure you’re not mistaken? You are here to certify Body Tempering Peak?”

Yes, that’s right. Let’s begin, Manager Tian,” As Lin Yuan finished speaking, he walked toward the window.

Manager Tian snapped back to reality and signaled to Xiao Min. Xiao Min immediately understood and ran upstairs.

Manager Tian then quickly followed Lin Yuan. “Mr. Lin, there are too many people here with prying eyes. Follow me to the office. I’ll have someone bring the testing equipment to the office, and we can test there.”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly. “That works too. Thank you for the trouble, Manager Tian.”

No trouble, no trouble at all. Mr. Lin is our honored guest, how could it be trouble? Please follow me this way.”

Manager Tian bowed and invited Lin Yuan into his office.

What is this youth’s identity? Even Manager Tian is so respectful.”

I think this youth must be a genius Martial Artist. Didn't you hear them mention certification?”,

Yes, he must be a genius with extremely high talent. I’ve never seen Manager Tian lose his composure like this before.”

The people in the hall were discussing animatedly, all guessing Lin Yuan’s identity.

In the office, Lin Yuan sat on the sofa, placing one hand inside the testing device. The screen immediately displayed: Body Tempering Realm Peak.

When Manager Tian saw those five words, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still utterly shocked.

Could this Lin Yuan possess an S-rank Ability? Otherwise, how could he reach this level in such a short time?

“Mr. Lin, here is your new badge, and the 200,000 certification reward will be deposited into your account shortly.”

Manager Tian handed a silver badge to Lin Yuan with both hands.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and reached out to accept the badge. He was very satisfied with Manager Tian’s efficiency.

Just then, Xiao Min suddenly pushed the door open and walked in.

She bowed to Lin Yuan and called out sweetly, “Mr. Lin.”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly to her.

Then, a vigorous old man walked in, laughing heartily...
