8: SSS-level training resources, warriors of the General Judgment Bureau!

After the joy subsided, Xu Yi’s gaze shifted from the Raging Thunder God Armor, which had transformed into a wristwatch, to the Councilor-exclusive communication ring on his finger.

With a gentle tap, a futuristic virtual screen instantly popped up before him.

In the center of the screen, a petite and adorable pink dragon named Ling Meng, covered in pink scales, vividly appeared.

Her soft, sweet voice, like a spring breeze, gently entered Xu Yi’s ears.

“Hello, Master, I am Ling Meng, and I am delighted to serve you. How may I assist you?”

Xu Yi pondered for a moment after hearing this, then conveyed his request to her.

“Xiao Meng, please log into the Elder Council’s official website and replace the SSS-level weapon and battle armor that are freely gifted upon becoming a Councilor with SSS-level cultivation resources of equivalent grade.”

Ling Meng immediately responded upon hearing this.

“Understood, Master, no problem. Please wait a moment; I will process it for you right away…”

As Ling Meng’s voice faded, the virtual screen before Xu Yi quickly transitioned, logging into the Treasure Pavilion page of the Council’s official website.

It contained a vast collection of the Great Xia Country’s most top-tier and precious high-level resources!

These included battle armor, weapons, martial arts techniques, cultivation methods, cultivation resources, various functional treasures, and more…

“Master, please select the cultivation resources you wish to replace.”

Xu Yi’s eyes lit up.

On the screen, Ling Meng had listed various SSS-level resources suitable for Thunder-element martial artists, exactly as he had requested!

Each item came with a detailed description and explanation of its effects, making it dazzling to behold!

He could now choose two items to replace the SSS-level battle armor and weapon gifted to him upon becoming a Councilor.

Additionally, Xu Yi noticed that these valuable resources were not traded using the conventional Great Xia currency.

Instead, a special currency exclusive to Council members, “Contribution Points,” was used.

He currently possessed three hundred Contribution Points; two hundred were an initial reward for becoming a Councilor, and the remaining one hundred were an extra reward for eliminating traitors like General Yang Xiong and Vice General Wu Ze.

Driven by curiosity, Xu Yi temporarily set aside his selection and turned to Ling Meng with a question.

“Xiao Meng, how are these Council member-exclusive ‘Contribution Points’ obtained?”

Upon hearing this, Ling Meng patiently explained to Xu Yi.

“Master, Contribution Points are exclusive to Council members because Martial Emperor Level martial artists, having reached that tier, possess hundreds of billions or even trillions of Great Xia currency and do not lack funds.”

“Therefore, the Two Councilors specifically established this system, which can be used to exchange for abundant resources, purely to incentivize Councilors. Contribution Points can be obtained simply by contributing to the Great Xia Country.”

“For example, successfully repelling beast tide invasions, resolving major domestic crises or chaotic incidents, etc., can earn one to several hundred, or even over a thousand, Contribution Points depending on the magnitude of the contribution.”

“Furthermore, the Council sometimes issues special missions, and completing them can also yield generous Contribution Point rewards. Of course, special missions are not mandatory, and Master, you may choose to decline them.”

After speaking, Ling Meng thoughtfully provided Xu Yi with a brief introduction to the Council’s operational mechanisms and rules, helping him to understand more thoroughly.

“I see, I understand.”

Xu Yi nodded, taking note of Ling Meng’s words, especially the novel “Contribution Points” system, which served as an exclusive benefit for Council members.

Previously, although he held a high and powerful position as a General, his rank was still too low compared to the Great Xia Country’s true top-tier martial artists.

He was unable to enjoy this benefit and had not even heard of it.

Part of the reason was also that he hadn’t focused his attention on it.

No one had expected him to break through to the Martial Emperor realm and become a Councilor in such a short time.

Subsequently, Xu Yi’s attention returned to the virtual screen, and he began to concentrate on selecting suitable SSS-level resources from the dazzling page.

“Wow, this is truly abundant…” Xu Yi exclaimed as he scrolled through the virtual screen before him.

The Treasure Pavilion contained a vast array of resources, each one tempting him.

Finally, with Ling Meng’s assistance and after careful consideration, Xu Yi selected two items: the most suitable top-grade SSS-level resources for Thunder-element martial artists.

One was a rare spiritual fruit containing powerful Thunder-element energy, and the other was a rare Thunder-element energy crystal that could also enhance cultivation after absorption.

“Master, you’ve chosen so well!”

“These two resources are truly rare treasures for Thunder-element martial artists.” Ling Meng praised with an adorable expression.

Xu Yi smiled, feeling very satisfied with his choices.

Although there were only two items, if exchanged using Contribution Points, each would require over four hundred and fifty points!

Based on Xu Yi’s observation, SSS-level resources seemed to start at four hundred and fifty Contribution Points.

“Alright, Xiao Meng, help me complete the exchange.” Xu Yi instructed.

“Yes, Master.” Ling Meng responded and completed the operation within seconds.

After selecting the SSS-level cultivation resources, a surge of desire to “spend” arose within Xu Yi, and he didn’t rush to exit the Treasure Pavilion page.

Instead, he continued to browse the dazzling array of resources.

But he was immediately met with a cold splash of water.

His three hundred Contribution Points could at most only exchange for some SS-level resources.

“Tsk tsk, this Treasure Pavilion truly has everything, but the prices are also incredibly steep,” Xu Yi muttered softly as he scrolled through the screen.

Amidst his Feelings, he saw some cheaper A-level resources.

Although they didn’t require many Contribution Points for exchange, they were already of little significance to his current realm.

And while SSS-level and Divine-level resources were one after another more enticing, the required Contribution Points also made him hesitate.

“Sigh, I’ll just save up for now,” Xu Yi sighed, finally putting away his desire to “spend.”

He decided to exchange for SSS-level or Divine-level resources later when he had more Contribution Points.

And with the system, Xu Yi believed he wouldn’t lack these things in the future.

With that thought, Xu Yi exited the Council’s official website and closed the communication ring on his finger.

He had Ling Meng activate the amplification effect of the cultivation room, preparing to test the newly acquired SSS-level cultivation technique, “Thunder God Scripture.”

As he closed his eyes, violent Thunder-attributed energy rapidly surged into his body from all directions!

His entire body was instantly enveloped by purple and black electric arcs, like slithering snakes.

A faint Martial Emperor martial artist’s pressure also emanated from him.

And for the first time using a top-tier SSS-level cultivation technique, Xu Yi felt an instant shock!

It was as if he was immersed in an ocean of thunder, with numerous lightning energies surging within his body, nourishing his physical form and Thunder-element special ability.

This allowed his strength, speed, defense, and other abilities to all improve!

Xu Yi quickly became engrossed in the pleasure of this cultivation, completely forgetting the passage of time…

Unbeknownst to him, night had fallen deeply.

“Boom…!”

Several S-level fighter jets bearing the emblem of the Council’s Judgment Headquarters roared as they sped from afar.

Xu Yi, who was cultivating in the cultivation room, quickly sensed this movement with his keen perception.

He slowly opened his eyes, which flickered with oppressive thunderous light.

He murmured in a low voice, “They’ve arrived.”

Then, Xu Yi ended his cultivation, and the purple-black electric arcs entwined around him quickly dissipated.

He stood up, tidied his clothes, and strode out of the cultivation room.

At this moment, three S-level fighter jets bearing the emblem of the Council’s Judgment Headquarters had already landed steadily on the base’s tarmac.

Several elite Martial Venerable-level experts from the Headquarters, leading numerous Martial Emperor Level martial artists, quickly streamed out of the fighter jets.

Under the guidance of the Martial Venerable-level General who came to greet them, they proceeded to the reception hall within the base, preparing to meet Xu Yi.

Soon after, the two parties met in the reception hall.

The leading Martial Venerable-level martial artist, Hou Shuo, stood straight and respectfully saluted Xu Yi, “Councilor Xu, I am Hou Shuo, squadron leader of the Judgment Headquarters, dispatched to escort the key criminals who colluded with the fierce beasts.”

Upon seeing the Great Xia Country’s tenth Councilor, everyone couldn’t help but feel a little excited.

Although they had heard more or less about the legendary General Xu Yi before, he had now made a stunning breakthrough to the Martial Emperor realm.

Today was their first time meeting Xu Yi in person.

Xu Yi nodded upon hearing this and said in a kind and unpretentious voice, “Good, you’ve all worked hard.”

Then he specifically instructed, “Don’t let these scoundrels die too quickly.”
