“You want to come with me? Why?" Yuan stopped to look at him with a confused face.

"Why are you asking?" Min Li stood there with a somewhat dazed face, as she had just spoken without thinking.

However, this was also the first time someone had questioned him like this. If it was someone else, they would not even think to ask why he wanted to follow them and would only accept it with a happy smile on their face.

“I also plan on heading to the Profound Pavilion to see if they have any techniques I can learn. Since you are going there now, I might as well come with you. Or don't you want me around you? Am I becoming a bully? If you are worried that I will attract unwanted attention, I can follow you from afar,” Min Li said to her a moment later.

"Well..It's not that you're interrupting. Whatever, you can do whatever you want," Yuan quickly gave up on giving an explanation and let him follow.

"Thank you, Disciple Yuan." Min Li showed her a beautiful bright smile.

Yuan did not react much despite his charming appearance and nodded his head with a calm expression before turning around and walking again.

Min Li fell silent once more, and he looked at Yuan's increasingly distant back with a puzzled look.

‘She doesn't seem interested in me.. This is the first.’ Min Li thought before she took her first step and started walking once Yuan was a dozen meters away from her.

"Look over there! Isn't that Fairy Min from one of the Seven Heritage Families?!”

"You're right! And he looks so amazing! I wonder where she went?”

The disciples outside quickly noticed Min Li's presence and a conversation about him and his family immediately began among the disciples.

Damn, there were even some disciples who started following him like the group of disciples of the District Court earlier.

"Welcome to pass the disciple exam and become a disciple, Fairy Min!"

“Price Min, do you have time now? If yes, why don't we have a celebration?”

‘He was really popular ..’ Yuan thought to himself when he could hear the disciples trying to talk to Min Li very clearly.

However, a moment later, Min Li suddenly stopped walking and turned to look at the group of disciples that were following behind him, and he spoke with a calm but cold expression on his face, which was very difficult, “I'm busy right now, can you all go? me alone?"

The disciples who followed him immediately stopped walking and looked at him with dumbfounded expressions before showing embarrassed or awkward expressions on their faces.

"Thank you." Min Li did not even wait for their response and continued walking, subtly following Yuan from behind while keeping a safe distance so one would only assume that they were coincidentally walking in the same direction.

Meanwhile, Yuan followed the map inside his head that he had memorized from the guidebook and slowly approached the Profound Pavilion.

Some time later, Yuan arrived in front of a tall building that resembled the Myriad Techniques in Spring City, but it was much more luxurious and majestic compared to the ordinary-looking Myriad Techniques.

Min Li followed him inside a moment later.

As soon as Yuan was inside the Profound Pavilion, he was immediately confused by the layout of the place. Unlike the Myriad of Pavilion, there were no techniques on display, and other than the reception and stairs at the end of the building, there was nothing else there.

"You must be a new student."

One of the sect elders behind the table suddenly called out to Yuan after seeing his seemingly lost face.

"Yes, right." Yuan nodded before he approached the table with a middle-aged man sitting behind him.

“What technique are you looking for, new student? Cultivation technique? Martial technique? Movement technique?” The sect elder asked him a moment later.

"I want a technique specifically designed for daggers" Yuan said.

“So you're a dagger user, huh? What's your budget?” The sect elder then asked him.

"budget? I have to pay for the technique here? ” Yuan looked at the sect elder with a shocked expression on his face as the guidebook never mentioned anything about the need to pay for his technique!

“Of course you have to pay for the technique. Do you think you can learn techniques for free just because you are a student? This was why the new disciple was ... ™™ The sect elder shook his head.

“Well I have about 200,000 gold coins left” Yuan said a moment later.

"Gold coins?" The sect elder looked at Yuan with raised eyebrows before laughing out loud.

"Ha ha ha! You are a very cute little man, Outer Court disciple! When I say you have to pay for the technique I mean not gold! This is the Profound Pavilion, not a shop, and we do not accept any other currency other than contribution points!” The sect elder explained to him a moment later.

“If we charge the students with real money, how will those from the same background learn any technique? This was a sect, where the contributions and efforts of a disciple were prioritized over others! ”

"That makes sense ..." Yuan nodded, and then he said, "If it's a contribution point, I have exactly a thousand. What can I get with that much? ”

"Excuse me? What did you just say? Did you just say that you have 1,000 contribution points? The sect elder looked at Yuan with a face of disbelief.

"Yes," Yuan confirmed. "Or is that not enough for a technique?"

"Uhhh ..." The sect elder fell silent.

A thousand contribution points was a huge sum even for an Inner Court disciple, let alone an Outer Court disciple who had just entered the sect! Hell, it would usually take ten years of collecting contribution points through sect missions for ordinary disciples to save a lot of contribution points! However, the Outer Court disciple who was clearly new to the sect somehow managed to obtain 1,000 contribution points? That's outrageous!
