When Lin Shen heard from Kou Ming most of the collection missions were issued by the Artifact Pavilion and the Alchemy Division, he had an idea. He guessed there was a high chance that some of these missions would need black iron.

After all, black iron was one of the most commonly used materials for forging weapons and even enchanted armaments.

The result was just as he had expected.

Lin Shen immediately took off the wooden token.

Just as he was about to hand over the mission, he glanced at a wooden token on the left from the corner of his eye. He immediately let out a low cry and stopped in his tracks.

“Collect a Yin Extreme Grass no less than 30 years. Reward: 80 merit points!”

“There’s also Yin Extreme Grass!”

Lin Shen was overjoyed.

The Yin Extreme Grass he obtained from Luo Yi was almost useless to him. It would be best if he could exchange it for merit points!

Lin Shen took off the wooden token without hesitation. Then, he went to the counter near the door and placed the two wooden tokens on the counter.

“Excuse me, I have missions to hand over.”

Standing behind the counter was a young girl with delicate features.

She looked to be about 20 years old.

She seemed to have seen many disciples directly come over with wooden tokens to hand over missions. Seeing this, she wasn’t surprised. She picked up the wooden token with familiarity and took a look. Then, she took the black iron and Yin Extreme Grass from Lin Shen and skillfully weighed the iron, and determined the grass’s age. After a moment, the girl looked up and smiled.

“Black iron weighs 12kg, which is a total of 48 merit points. The Yin Extreme Grass is between 30 and 40 years old. You have fulfilled the mission condition. The reward is 80 merit points. Together, you’ll be rewarded 128 merit points. Please show me your identity token!”

Lin Shen handed over his identity token.

The girl took the token and checked it. After confirming there were no mistakes, she took a brush and began to write and draw on a blank notebook.

From Lin Shen’s angle, he could see the black calligraphy and paintings on the page appear one after another before quickly disappearing.

When the girl put down the brush, the notebook was still blank. The girl smiled and handed the token back.

“128 merit points have been registered.”

Lin Shen clicked his tongue in wonder. He guessed the brush and the notebook were probably some kinds of enchanted armaments.

After thanking her, Lin Shen left with his identity token and prepared to exchange for resources.

After watching Lin Shen walk out of the hall, the girl behind the

counter tilted her head in confusion.

“How strange. That person looks unfamiliar. Is there such a person among the Black-rank disciples? Did he just advance in the rank challenge a few days ago?

“But I don’t think I’ve seen this person among the Yellow-rank disciples either.”

Lin Shen arrived at the hall where resources were exchanged.

He flipped through the list and began to think about what to exchange for.

The martial techniques were definitely what he wanted the most.

For example, the Essence Sword Finger was worth ten minor merits.

It was a powerful martial technique that could release sword energy with one’s fingers. It could be used to perfect his martial technique system.

In addition, there was also the Supreme Yang Swordplay which was worth four minor merits. It could make up for his lack of weapon-type martial techniques.

Unfortunately, Lin Shen only had three minor merits at the moment.

He couldn’t even afford the Supreme Yang Swordplay, let alone the Essence Sword Finger.

“Forget it. I’ll cultivate Dragon Roar Through the Clouds, Forbidden Golden Armor, and Meltdown to Perfection first. After that, I should have enough merit points to exchange for martial techniques.”

Lin Shen also wanted enchanted armaments, the Bind Yang Gown, and the Three Yang Talisman Sword.

However, just like martial techniques, he couldn’t afford them at the moment.

Fortunately, the pills were something he could afford.

One bottle of Condensing Pills cost 36 merit points. Lin Shen immediately exchanged for three bottles.

Three bottles of Condensing Pills were enough to last him for a while.

As for the three minor merits, he planned to save them up for the time being.

After all, once minor merit was exchanged for merit points, it could never be exchanged back.

Many of the precious items on the list could only be exchanged with minor merits.

After exchanging for the Condensing Pills, Lin Shen rushed to the residential area.

On the mountain path surrounded by wooden buildings, many disciples in Daoist robes came and went in a hurry.

However, when Lin Shen stepped onto the mountain path, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed. Many people subconsciously slowed down and looked at him at the same time, pointing and whispering.

“Is that Lin Shen?”

“That’s right. He’s the new chief disciple of the new students who defeated two Long Breath Stage disciples!”

“I heard Master Si even promoted him to a Black-rank disciple!”

“Damn, I’m so envious! It took me two years to become a Black-rank disciple, but he became one the moment he entered the academy!”

“It couldn’t be helped. He’s insanely talented. He’s a new student at the Long Breath Stage! This is the first time since the establishment of the academy. Isn’t that incredible?”

It was obvious the news of the guided battle had already spread.

Along the way, Lin Shen became a panda in the zoo, and countless people surrounded and pointed at him.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for him to find Building C171. He immediately opened the door with the token and hid inside.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent. The array formation of the wooden building blocked all the gazes.

This place had become a small island isolated from the world.

Lin Shen heaved a long sigh of relief. He looked around and checked the environment in the wooden building.

The wooden building was spacious and had two floors.

There was a living room, a kitchen, and a balcony.

There were also three bedrooms, each with a separate bathroom.

In addition, there was also a modified cultivation room. The floor and walls inside were covered with a layer of metal that looked like iron or copper. It was extremely hard and was probably more than enough to withstand the attacks of a Long Breath Stage cultivator. It was enough to deal with daily martial arts cultivation.

In order to match the overall style of the academy, the decorations in the wooden building were antique and elegant..
