“I should have thought of this earlier: without the Gentle Breeze Waning Moon Blade at the Entry Level, the Fusion Panel won’t indicate whether it can be fused.”
When he first discovered the Fusion Panel, it was because he had cultivated the Golden Sun Refining Technique to the Entry Level and advanced to the True Qi Realm.
So he wasn’t sure whether the emergence of the Fusion Panel was due to the entry-level achievement of the Golden Sun Refining Technique or the breakthrough of the realm.
Now it seems that it’s because both of these things happened together.
Thinking of this, Lu Yun spent another forty energy points to upgrade Eastern Wind Break to the Entry Level.
As expected, a Fusion Panel appeared behind Eastern Wind Break as well.
Lu Yun’s previous speculation was correct: even if it was a martial art in the form of a saber technique, fusion could be achieved if the attributes were the same.
Upon opening the fusion panel on any of Breaking Wind Saber Technique, Gentle Breeze Waning Moon Blade, and Eastern Wind Break, information about fusion with any other two martial arts would appear.
However, the energy value required for fusion between them is different.
This is normal; although the attributes of the three martial arts are the same, there are differences between them.
Among them, the gap between Breaking Wind Saber Technique, Gentle Breeze Waning Moon Blade, and Eastern Wind Break is significant.
Plus, with the lower level, the energy value needed for fusion with the other two martial arts is also lower.
Lu Yun opened the Fusion Panel on the Breaking Wind Saber Technique, and a line of information appeared on it.
[Discovered that Breaking Wind Saber Technique can fuse with Gentle Breeze Waning Moon Blade, consuming 650 energy points; discovered that Breaking Wind Saber Technique can fuse with Eastern Wind Break, consuming 680 contribution points]
Lu Yun shook his head with a bitter smile; he only had 631 energy points left, nowhere close to the amount needed for fusion.
As for the fusion panels of Gentle Breeze Waning Moon Blade and Eastern Wind Break, Lu Yun didn’t even dare to look at them.
Because he simply didn’t have enough energy points.
“All, I’m broke again, it seems like I need to prioritize becoming an Alchemist.”
Lu Yun helplessly got up, left the Cultivation Room, and lay down to sunbathe on a wooden chair on the second-floor balcony.
Becoming an Alchemist isn’t that simple, it’s not something that can be done in one go, and careful planning is needed.
First, a pill recipe is needed, and then spirit herbs need to be collected according to the pill recipe.
Neither pill recipes nor spirit herbs are easy to obtain.
In fact, even the most basic Furnace, Lu Yun couldn’t get now, which was like a skilled woman without rice to cook.
“The path of the Alchemist is long and arduous, and 1 must take my time.”
Lu Yun lay on the chair, sighed helplessly, and closed his eyes to rest.
At some unknown time, the sun had set, and a gentle breeze blew intermittently.
A yellowing leaf withered and fell, fluttering in the autumn wind, finally landing on a light blue sword hilt.
“Looks like my guess was right; the owner of this little building really is you.”
Lu Yun lazily opened his eyes and saw a young man who had suddenly appeared before him.
With sword-like eyebrows and sharp eyes, he wore a pure white Star Robe, which further highlighted his otherworldly and peerless temperament.
This young man was Xiao Chen.
After several months, he had grown much taller, and there was a bit more firmness and maturity on his face, more and more resembling the style and demeanor of a Heavenly Pride in swordsmanship.
Lu Yun stood up, glanced at the other party indifferently, and said unhappily, “Why don’t you just announce yourself before coming to my place? If it were someone else, they’d be in for a rough time.”
Xiao Chen ignored Lu Yun’s words and simply said, “I’ve taken another mission. It’s a two-person mission. Are you interested?”
Lu Yun was definitely interested. Without even thinking, he asked, “What mission? Are the Contribution Points high?”
As if expecting this outcome, Xiao Chen’s face remained calm and said lightly, “A new disciple recruitment assessment mission, with a minimum of 3,000 Contribution Points. Recruiting a Level 5 common Innate Talent will grant an additional 300 Contribution Points; a Level 5 top Innate Talent will grant an additional 500 Contribution Points; a Level 6 Innate Talent will grant an additional 1,000 Contribution Points.”
“A mission for assessing new disciples?” Lu Yun looked skeptical.
This type of task seemed easy, not time-consuming, and easy to complete, but the requirements for strength were very strict.
There were two reasons for this.
First, once one accepted this task, they were representing the Martial Academy as the examiner for recruiting new disciples, as a symbol and representative of the academy. If their strength was too weak, it would affect the reputation of the academy.
Second, the examiner was responsible for maintaining the order during the examination process and protecting the safety of new disciples. Without strong strength, it would be difficult to prevent accidents from happening.
Last year, the strengths of Lin Chen and Meng Hongfei, who were responsible for recruiting and examining students in Cloud Water County, were very strong. One was in the Transforming Origin Realm, and the other was in the True Qi Realm, capable of defeating opponents in the Transforming Origin Realm.
This especially showed the importance that the martial academy attached to the recruitment and examination of new disciples.
Ignoring Lu Yun’s doubts, Xiao Chen pretended not to see them, acting as if he was too lazy to speak unless asked, and even then only answering depending on his mood.
Even though he was a little puzzled, Lu Yun didn’t linger over the matter.
As such a great opportunity fell into his lap, it was only natural that he wouldn’t have any reason to refuse.
As for his strength, he didn’t think he was weak at all.
“Where and when to depart?”
Seeing that Lu Yun was so straightforward, Xiao Chen’s unchangingly calm face finally revealed a slight smile, like the warmth of the winter sun, a blend of warmth and coldness.
“I’ll come for you tomorrow morning.”
With that said, Xiao Chen leaped away, his figure disappearing from Lu Yun’s sight.
Lu Yun stretched out two fingers to rub his temples, his thoughts lightened significantly. He glanced at the half-reddened sky where the sun was setting and murmured softly, “The sky isn’t too late; let’s go for a walk.”
Soon, he arrived at the Internal Affairs Hall, specifically at the area dealing with disciple promotions.
“What can 1 do for you?” One of the black-robed stewards looked at the young Lu Yun dressed in a purple-black Star Robe, his face bearing a hint of benevolence.
Lu Yun didn’t find it strange.
“Steward, can you help me check if there has been a new Star Palace disciple named Duan Qing among those who have joined in the past six months?”
He had a good impression of Duan Qing, who had been in the martial academy for many years and had more connections.
This time, he wanted to ask for Duan Qing’s help to deal with the Sumi Bag and spirit crystals that he had on hand and inquire about other matters while he was at it.
However, he wasn’t sure if Duan Qing had become a Star Palace disciple.
“Small matter, very easy.” The steward turned around, took a roster from a nearby file bag, and flipped through it.
After a brief pondering, he said, “I have looked through all the disciples who have been promoted to the Star Palace in the past year, but I cannot find the name ‘Duan Qing’.”
“Oh, alright. Thank you, Steward.”
Lu Yun thanked the steward and turned to leave.
He had thought that Duan Qing had already become a disciple of the Star Palace and had come here to find out Duan Qing’s whereabouts, but he didn’t expect to receive this result.
When the sun had completely set, Lu Yun appeared at the residence of the elite disciples, where Duan Qing’s original residence was.
He knocked lightly on the courtyard door, but there was no response.
“Is nobody there?” Lu Yun’s eyebrows furrowed.
He increased his strength and knocked a few more times, but there was still no sound coming from inside.
“Forget it, let’s find someone else to deal with.”
As Lu Yun turned to leave, he suddenly saw a figure approaching quickly from a distance.
His vision was very good, and even though they were quite far apart, he could see the person’s face clearly.
The face looked like it was stuffed with two big buns, eyes squeezed into slits, a small nose that looked like a ditch, and a round, plump body that resembled a meatball from a distance.
This person was indeed Duan Qing. However, compared to when they first met, there seemed to be some changes in Duan Qing at this time.
There was a faint trace of worry on his brow, and his expression was somewhat languid. His mind didn’t seem very focused, to the point that he didn’t notice Lu Yun as he approached his own residence..
