My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 75 Rewards
The Qi Gathering Pill is one of the most famous and effective low-grade pills. After a martial artist who has achieved the third stage of Qi and Blood Transformation takes it, he can sense and attract spiritual energy into his body. Under the influence of the medicine, the spiritual energy becomes less violent and easier to absorb.

but!

It's expensive!

Its value is no less than the Golden Snow Ginseng that Huang Xunjiu gave to Xia Hong before. Ordinary martial artists simply cannot afford it. Only the Huang family can barely afford it, but even then, they will feel the pinch for a long time.

More importantly, it only makes the spiritual energy relatively less violent, not completely gentle. Therefore, after taking the Qi Gathering Pill, there are still some cases where people fail to absorb the spiritual energy, resulting in minor or serious injuries to their bodies.

Previously, Huang Qian was unwilling to take the pill for three reasons: first, he did not want to add burden to the Huang family; second, he believed that the Qi Gathering Pill was not reliable enough and could not guarantee that everyone could draw Qi into their body; and third, he believed that if he spent more time tempering his skin, flesh, muscles and bones, he could also successfully draw Qi into his body.

But now, he doesn't have that much time to wait.

It only took Huang Tian, ​​an ordinary person with no strength to kill a chicken, a month to catch up with him. How long will it take to surpass him?
He refused to passively wait to be surpassed. After all, he was a genius praised by many relatives, friends, superiors, and subordinates! His pride made it impossible for him to accept being surpassed by Huang Tian…

When Huang Qian made up his mind to take the elixir and begin to cultivate his qi, Xia Hong and Huang Tian had already arrived at the office of Bai Zhenfushi.

"What?! You're saying you've broken through to the seventh rank?!"

Wearing a bright red brocade robe, Bai Yuanfu, who was usually refined and composed, lost his composure the moment he learned that Huang Tian had entered the seventh rank of the Entrance Realm. He jumped up from the soft couch, took two steps forward and stood in front of the latter, his eyes full of surprise and doubt.

Huang Tian nodded slightly, and without hesitation mobilized his qi and blood, a faint red halo immediately appeared on his outstretched hands.

Shirahara took a deep breath and said repeatedly, "Too fast! Too fast! Let me think..."

He was at a loss as to what to do next with Huang Tiancai.

Xia Hong rarely saw the garrison commander lose his composure, and he found it both amusing and understandable. Anyone would lose their composure if they encountered a genius like Huang Tian.

After a long while, Bai Yuanfu waved his hand and said, "How about this, you all sit down and wait a while. I'll go and discuss it with the others to see what the other two garrison commanders think."

It's a pity that Commander Yu is in seclusion; otherwise, we could have asked him to make the decision..."

Commander Yu Jingcheng is the only third-rank Grandmaster in the Kunyun County Garrison!
He is extremely powerful and highly respected, but unfortunately he often goes into seclusion, sometimes for several months at a time, so Huang Tian has never seen him before.

After Bai Yuanfu left, Xia Hong and Huang Tian found a chair and sat down to wait quietly.

Half an hour passed before Bai Yuanfu walked in with a solemn expression.

"Governor!" The two stood up.

"Sit down, everyone, don't be shy."

Bai Yuanfu waved his hand, his gentle gaze falling on Huang Tian. "After discussing with the other two garrison commanders, we have decided to give you two choices."

Huang Tian listened attentively with a serious expression.

Bai Yuanfu explained in detail: "The first option is to send you to the State Town Martial Guard. There, you will find a greater abundance of martial arts resources, more powerful individuals, and more opportunities. You may be valued by a grandmaster and taken in for instruction."

However, the problem is that the situation in the state capital is extremely complicated.

As someone with no background but exceptional talent, you will face far too many risks upon arriving in the capital.

Based on my many years of experience serving in the State Garrison, I do not recommend that you go there now. You should at least break through to the middle third rank before going.” He came from a prominent family in Qin State and served in the State Garrison for decades. He was only transferred to Kunyun County after breaking through to the fourth rank, so he naturally knew how complicated the situation in the state capital was.

Officials from various government offices, powerful families, influential clans, major sects, geniuses, villains from the Demonic Cult, and imperial guards... all crowded into the state city. Huang Tian went there alone, which was like a lamb entering a tiger's den, delivering himself to be eaten.

As someone who listens to advice, Huang Tian immediately rejected the first option in his mind.

There's no other reason than that going to the prefectural city wouldn't be of much benefit to him at the moment. The prefecture could provide him with all the cultivation resources he needed, such as the Blood Clotting Pills, so he didn't have an urgent need for supplies. As a result, the biggest advantage of the prefectural garrison was gone.

Secondly, he didn't really need a grandmaster to teach him how to cultivate. He had already embarked on another path that combined martial arts and metaphysics. The only thing that attracted him to the state and town guards was the classic books and martial arts techniques treasured in the library.

But that's not urgent; he hasn't even finished reading the martial arts manuals on the second floor of the county and town military guards' library yet.

While secretly observing Huang Tian's expression, Bai Yuanfu said, "The second option is to stay in the prefecture and take up a post. You have already reached the seventh rank and your strength is not weak. You should take up a real post to gain experience."

After discussion, we plan to appoint you as a trial centurion patrolling Baoqing Ward. This responsibility is not demanding; as long as no one causes any major trouble in Baoqing Ward, you only need to patrol the wards and alleys every now and then. It won't interfere with your cultivation progress.

Baoqingfang is the main base of Zhenwuwei. Serving as a trial centurion here is not only extremely safe, but also exceptionally easy, because few dare to cause trouble in Zhenwuwei's stronghold.

Therefore, this position is less of a training opportunity and more of a reward, adding a good resume to Huang Tian's resume so that he can be quickly promoted in the future.

Actually, there was something Bai Yuanfu didn't say. While Huang Tian was given a position, he would secretly send someone to protect him. After all, Huang Tian was a genius that only appeared once every few decades in Zhenwu Guard, and he would not let Huang Tian be in danger. However, this point could not be made public, otherwise the purpose of training would be lost.

"What do you think?" Shirahara asked.

Without hesitation, Huang Tian replied, "I choose to stay and take up my post in the county."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuanfu smiled. It was clear that he was satisfied with Huang Tian's choice, because it meant that the latter would not be too arrogant and would listen to advice, which was a very good character trait for a genius.

"Alright, in that case, you will officially take office the day after tomorrow."

Bai Yuanfu said, "Furthermore, you have made breakthroughs one after another, showing great ambition. We can't just leave without giving you some rewards. Tell me, what do you need? Elixirs, divine weapons, martial arts techniques, a beautiful house, a beautiful woman, land..."

Huang Tian's eyes lit up; he had finally gotten what he wanted!

"Commander, I would like to go to the second floor of the library and look at all the martial arts techniques inside."

"Martial arts?"

Bai Yuanfu nodded slightly, seemingly unsurprised by Huang Tian's choice. He had long known about Huang Tian's exceptional comprehension and his love for learning various martial arts techniques, and had guessed that Huang Tian would make this choice.

“Alright, I grant your permission.” Bai Yuanfu raised his hand and sent out a silver token engraved with three patterns. “With this, you can not only see all the martial arts techniques on the second floor, but also go up to the third floor and look through all the martial arts manuals and secret records.”

Martial arts techniques on the second floor! Manuals on the third floor!
Huang Tian was overjoyed to have obtained everything he needed most, and sincerely said, "Thank you, Commander!"

Bai Yuanfu laughed heartily, "The stronger your talent, the more attention you will receive. So, cultivate diligently, boldly display your talent, and don't have any doubts. I, and the county and town guards, are all behind you!"

　Thank you Yi Ang 焾犴昜瀟楠 for the 600 Qidian coins!
