Chapter 10: Mission Hall (1/2)
Yang Wei slowly wakes up and starts heading to the Mission Hall.
'I probably try to choose one related to alchemy since it needs a strong soul power to concoct a pill and it will give me more experience.'
Yang Wei thinks about it and believes this is the most logical way to earn a contribution point.
Arriving at the Mission Hall, it was crowded with many outer disciples.
”Sect Elder, I have decided to choose this mission. Please approve it.”
”I also chose a mission too. Sect Elder please.”
Yang Wei hears many disciples talking to the sect elder in charge of registering their mission.
For a disciple to take a mission officially, they must first be registered by the sect elder. Otherwise, they would not be able to claim their contribution point.
Mission assignment is shown in a wide board where Yang Wei and other disciples can look to see.
Yang Wei looked at the different missions that have different difficulty assigned in it where the higher the difficulty, the more contribution points one earned.
'So many different missions and most are confusing or extremely difficult.'
Taking his time slowly, Yang Wei decided to choose a mission about helping a sect elder in the work for alchemy.
”Sect Elder, I decided on this mission.” Yang Wei took the mission and went to the sect elder to have him register it.
”T-This mission. Boy, are you really sure about this mission? If you are unable to satisfy this request, you could suffer a lot and even a harsh beating.” The sect elder said to warn Yang Wei of this mission.
It was a mission to hand out 1000 contribution points which is a lot to these outer disciples but the catch is, no one was able to complete it.
He has approved so many disciples on this mission, only to have them come back in a battered face and failure.
Yang Wei nodded his head to show his silent determination in this mission. 'If this mission was simple and easy, it wouldn't be posted on the board for this long.'
Shaking his head on another hot-headed youth, the sect elder stamped on the mission to show that it's been approved.
Bowing to the sect elder, Yang Wei holds the mission slip and walks to the direction of the court that the elder requested.
”Halt, this place is off-limit to outer disciple.”
”This place is where our sect elder lives and the elder is busy in trying to figure out a pill formula.”
Instantly, two guards in this courtyard block off Yang Wei's entrance when he was about to step inside.
”I'm here because of a mission I just accepted.” Yang Wei said while showing them the mission slip.
Seeing the authentication slip with a stamp, the guard nodded their head and allowed Yang Wei to pass through.
Once Yang Wei disappears from their eyesight, the two guards start talking to each other.
”Hah, another fool that's about to be thrashed by the elder.”
”Wanna bet how long this boy would last from the elder?”
”You're on! I bet he will get thrown out within 10 minutes.”
”Then I shall bet 20 minutes since his pretty handsome face should show he has some skills.”
Yang Wei didn't know he was being gambled on how long he will last in this elder's courtyard.
His mind was only on what the sect elder wants him to do specifically in this mission.
The mission only stated the person must help the elder in concocting a pill and nothing else.
*Knock*
Knocking the door lightly to show respect and announce his arrival, a loud voice echoed throughout but the voice was a female one.
”Shut up, don't you know the rules that I hate to be disturbed when I'm refining a pill.”
*Booooooom*
A loud explosion occurred and the roof of this building exploded with a mushroom cloud of smoke.
Yang Wei had a bad feeling about this outcome and tried to take a step back. 'Pill refining and an explosion could only mean the pill is a fail.'
*Gulp*
Yang Wei swallowed his throat nervously since this female elder would definitely target him for the failure.
Suddenly a loud footstep from the inside opened the door and a black dusted female face was pointing her finger toward him.
