In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 249 Ranking
A ward at Donghai City Hospital.

Jin Quan lay motionless on the hospital bed, but his eyes were fixed on the air in front of him.

It seemed like there was someone there.

His face was filled with panic: "Young master, save me!"

A cold voice suddenly rang out: "You've messed things up, and you still dare to ask me to save you?"

Jin Quan pleaded in terror, "Young master! My surname is Jin! I am a sixth-level spiritual master! I am still useful!"

The voice scoffed disdainfully: "A mere sixth-dan, nothing more than an ant, dares to claim he's useful?"

"If your surname weren't Jin, you would already be food for the 'Divine Tree.' Being banished to the Death Zone Battlefield is already an immense blessing,"

"If you have the ability, you will survive; otherwise, you will die there."

That was the end of that sentence.

"Young Master! Young Master!?"

Jin Quan struggled in terror, but his mind was so traumatized that he couldn't even control his body.

No matter how much he cried out and begged, he received no response.

It only alerted the medical staff, who immediately gave him an injection...

……

Donghai Wharf.

"You...you really aren't coming back with me?"

After much hesitation, Leng Qingci finally asked the question.

Xie Lingxin laughed and said, "If I stay at your house again, Professor Leng will definitely eat me alive."

Leng Qingci said dismissively, "With my mom around, my dad wouldn't dare. Don't let his appearance fool you, when my mom really gets angry, he's more timid than a mouse seeing a cat."

"..."

Is that your dad?
Xie Ling thought to herself, "If I don't go back soon, our Fatty Orange is going to throw a tantrum."

A look of confusion crossed Leng Qingci's eyes: "Fat Orange?"

"Oh, it's Director Dai. You must have misheard me."

Xie Lingxin gestured with her chin toward a flying car parked not far away.

Fat Orange and Wen Yifu were waiting there.

"is it?"

Leng Qingci always felt that he treated her like a fool.

"Alright, you've been gone for so long, it's really time for you to go back."

Leng Qingci seemed to have figured it out. She raised her head and revealed a dazzling smile: "Anyway, Leizhou isn't far from the East China Sea. I'll come to see you when I have time."

"Don't misunderstand, I just wanted to ask you for advice. After all, your knowledge of ancient classics and history is far superior to mine."

What are you here for?

Xie Lingxin muttered to herself.

No matter how strong I am, I only know some partial things, and I'm still no better than your rat-like father.

Even if he's slow to realize something, he should be able to sense it by now, let alone the fact that he's not slow at all.

There was nothing he could do; he couldn't possibly respond.

Before, it was because we didn't have the means; now, it's because we don't want to.

Women will only slow him down the speed at which he draws his sword!

We can only continue to play dumb.

"Then I'll be going. Take care!"

"goodbye……"

Leng Qingci watched him turn around without looking back, stride away, get into the car, and disappear from sight in an instant.

"Ugh……"

He sighed softly and turned to leave.

……

On the way back to Leizhou.

"I say, you're pretty hard-hearted, aren't you?"

Dai Yang joked.

With his experience, how could he not see through the Leng family girl's thoughts?

He wasn't surprised at all by this.

His precious son is so outstanding, if those other women don't like him, they'd be blind!

Xie Lingxin asked blankly, "Director Dai, what are you talking about? I'm still a child, I don't understand."

If you're going to play dumb, then play dumb completely.

"hey-hey!"

Dai Yang nudged him: "You're a bit of a scumbag, but let me remind you, although this era doesn't care about those things anymore, preserving your virginity is still beneficial for cultivation."

"At least until we pass through the twelve trials, we must do our best to protect them and prevent those demons from luring them away."

"..."

Xie Lingxin was speechless.

I'm still a child, how could you say these things to a child?
Wen Yifu, who had been listening for a while, shook his head and changed the subject: "Xiao Xie, you've been in the Domain Realm for so long this time, have you had any physical or mental problems?"

Although he was a scripture teacher, he was also an expert in spiritual cultivation. He knew that Xie Lingxin had spent more than seventy years in the realm, a time that was equivalent to most people's lifetime.

It's really not easy to not be able to think of a problem.

Xie Lingxin checked her cultivation progress.

[Sex: 994208.44/1000000 (Sixfold)]

[Life: 136.48/1000 (three levels)]

The cultivation of life force has returned to its normal progress.

Although he was somewhat nostalgic for the powerful feeling of having five physical bodies, he didn't feel any regret.

He said, "There's nothing wrong. Master Jianyue has already checked me at the Tongtian Pagoda, and I'm fine."

Dai Yang became nervous at this moment: "No, it's not up to you. Those bastards in the tax bureau actually dare to use such methods here. Who knows if there are other problems?" "When we get to Leizhou, I'll take you to the Lun Dao Hall for testing first."

"Ok?"

Xie Lingxin understood what he meant, so she was even more puzzled: "Shouldn't we go to the hospital? Or even Far East Biology? Why go to the Daoist Hall?"

Wen Yifu smiled and continued, "In the Federation, when it comes to understanding the human body and mind, it's not hospitals or research institutes, but rather dojos."

"what?"

Dai Yang waved his chubby hand: "It's simple. Just think of it this way: those people in the dojo love to rank people and assign them grades. But how can they do that if they don't know the people?"

"Perfect! You actually went out for a short while and flew straight into the sky! How long has it been? And you're already at the sixth level!?"

Although I know there is a huge time difference between the Great Zhou Domain and the Federation, this is still too exaggerated.

Even in the Federation, it takes decades to reach the sixth level of the Mind Realm, let alone in the Domain Realm.
"I'll take you to the Dao Discussion Hall for a test and to determine your level. It wasn't necessary before, but now that you're at the sixth level of the Mind Realm, it's time for you to go. It will also be good for you."

Xie Ling's eyes lit up: "What benefits?"

Dai Yang chuckled: "With your contributions, your rank is too low. Those old guys above me used to brush me off with the excuse that the rules couldn't be broken."

"Let's see what they have to say this time."

"If those guys, who are not even 18 years old and at the sixth level of the Mind Realm, dare to say another word, I'll go straight to the Central Star and cause trouble! Let's see who's shameless!"

Wen Yifu rolled his eyes: "What nonsense are you spouting in front of the children?"

He looked at Xie Lingxin: "Actually, it would be good to have a ranking. When I joined the Scripture Master Association last time, I mentioned that I was working on getting the Morning Star Badge for you. If you have a ranking, it will be much easier."

Seeing Xie Lingxin's somewhat indifferent expression, Dai Yang knew perfectly well what she was thinking.
"Don't think that job titles are useless. Putting everything else aside, a promotion of one level means a monthly salary increase of at least 100,000!"

"There's also a corresponding increase in privileges; you should know how important that is even if I don't tell you."

Xie Lingxin's eyes lit up even more when she heard that level one would add 100,000.

Moreover, he realized that he was no longer the Prince Jing of the Great Zhou!

Forget about that luxurious Tian Ce General's mansion, he doesn't even have a place to stay right now!
He remembered something important: only those promoted to clerks could be allocated housing!
He immediately became serious and said, "Director Dai, please be sure to help me get promoted!"

Dai Yang had long known his character, and he was quite satisfied that he hadn't changed his character after living "a whole life."

Only then did he feel a little relieved; Xie Lingxin was still the same Xie Lingxin, unchanged.

"Don't worry, with your contributions, you should have been promoted to clerk long ago, it's just that you're held back by that ridiculous rule of only being able to be promoted three levels in a year,"

"However, this rule isn't absolutely unbreakable. As long as there are special achievements, like being 18 years old and reaching the sixth level! If that's not considered a special achievement, I'll fight them to the bitter end!"

"Based on this alone, you should be promoted to division chief, not just a clerk!"

"Don't worry, once your level is determined, I'll personally handle the process for you!"

Xie Lingxin's spirits lifted.

He is currently in level 23.

The section-level positions are numbered seventeen to nineteen.

A division-level position is at least level sixteen!
That would require a seven-level promotion!

Besides housing, monthly salary will increase to at least 800,000! That's 9.6 million a year!
good good!
Wen Yifu smiled and added a little more weight: "If the Morning Star Badge can be put into operation, there should be additional subsidies, which should amount to more than ten million a year."

Xie Lingxin's body tensed immediately: "Go! Go now!"

Now nothing can stop his determination to improve!
……

The flying car is very fast.

In the afternoon, they returned to Leizhou City and, at Xie Lingxin's insistence, went straight to the World's Number One Taoist Hall!
Although Xie Lingxin had lived in Leizhou for more than ten years, this was her first time visiting the Lun Dao Hall.

It was actually located not far from the Chen Family Manor.

If we say that the Chen Family Manor is the largest place in Leizhou.

That dojo is the highest place!

Director Dai said, "The number one martial arts academy in the world likes to rank everything, so this building is 360 meters tall, which is considered short."

"The main building on Central Star is even more outrageous, it's 10800 meters tall!"

"Sigh~"

Even in the Kyushu Federation, Xie Lingxin had never heard of such a tall building.

"Does this number have any special meaning?"

He felt that the number had both whole and partial zeros, and didn't seem to have been chosen randomly.

Director Dai smiled and kept everyone in suspense: "Well... you'll find out soon enough."

Enter the Discussion Hall.

This is an extremely spacious hall, with a ceiling height exceeding ten meters.

Inside, there are huge pillars everywhere, and the walls and pillars are covered with reliefs.

Mythical beasts, strange creatures, and some indistinct divine beings...

Each statue and painting seems to tell an ancient and magnificent story.

What a magnificent place...

It doesn't look like a modern high-rise building; it looks more like an ancient... temple.

There were many people coming and going in the magnificent hall, and they all looked like practitioners.

At least thousands.

This was the first time Xie Lingxin had seen so many cultivators appear in one place in Leizhou at the same time.

Are they all here to be ranked?

"Master Sima?"

As soon as I entered, I saw a middle-aged man in a long robe emerge from the elevator entrance, dressed as if he were from ancient times.

Most of the cultivators in the hall recognized this person and were all surprised.

This person is not someone you usually see easily, so why is he here now?

Dai Yang also exclaimed in surprise.

He made an appointment with the Lundao Hall before coming; as the director of the Leizhou Environmental Protection Bureau, he still had that kind of influence.

But the person in front of us is the owner of the Leizhou Lundao Hall, and he is no ordinary person.

He is also one of the few titled experts in Leizhou.

He was self-aware enough not to have the prestige of the head of the Daoist Academy personally come to greet him.
