High Martial Arts: Gains one point of health per second, sweeping across the heavens.

He definitely can't produce 10 billion top-grade cosmic crystals right now, but luckily there are items that can be used as substitutes.

If even a non-official employee of the Wanbao Heavenly Court requires 100 Chaos Crystals, then how high must the threshold be for a formal employee?

He estimated it would be at least ten times the original amount, with a minimum of one thousand coins.

No wonder the system previously said that only beings in the Transcendent Realm could accumulate enough contribution points to become official members.

Su Jie took a deep breath and pulled himself out of his thoughts.

It's a bit pricey, but there's a reason for it. At least the status of an unofficial employee of Wanbao Heavenly Court is genuinely useful in the Chaos Mother Sea.

With this identity, it will be much easier for him to travel between the various chaotic islands in the future.

He confirmed the payment, and the glowing orb lit up slightly: "Application for non-permanent employee status has been accepted. Current contribution value: 0. Please replenish 10 billion contribution points within one year. Applications submitted after the deadline will automatically expire."

After Su Jie confirmed, the mechanical voice sounded again:

"Current contribution value: 0. One hundred Chaos Crystals are required to complete the application."

Please select your contribution method: Direct exchange with premium Cosmic Crystals / Contribution points calculated after item identification.

Su Jie thought to himself: Luckily, all I have left is the Primordial Dao Fruit!

Moreover, he was not worried about any risks involved in taking out such a treasure of this caliber from the Heavenly Palace.

He had heard of the rules of Wanbao Heavenly Court, where the daily transaction volume was astronomical, and the entire force could be supported by just profiting from the price difference.

For the Heavenly Court of Myriad Treasures, it's simply not worth ruining its reputation for a single Primordial Dao Fruit.

Moreover, this orb of light is directly connected to the intelligent terminal at headquarters, and everything will proceed according to the rules.

In the Chaos Mother Sea, in any faction, you might be afraid of having your valuable items stolen if you bring them out.

But within the Heavenly Court of Myriad Treasures, they will only make transactions with you, because that is the brand they have built over countless eras.

If you bring out something good, they will convert it into contribution points according to the rules. They are fair and honest, but the ratio is sometimes not very attractive.

Having figured this out, Su Jie didn't hesitate any longer.

He reached into the system space and took out a purple-gold fruit, placing it on the identification platform on the side of the light sphere.

The fruit's surface is covered with fine, purplish-gold veins, exuding a warm and pure aura, and gleaming with a deep luster under the soft light of the testing table.

A beam of light, as thin as a hair, shot out from the sphere of light and swept back and forth twice across the surface of the Primordial Dao Fruit.

The moment the beam retracted, the mechanical voice sounded again:

"Item appraisal complete. One Primordial Dao Fruit, complete grade, pure origin. Appraised contribution value: 10,000 Chaos Yuan Crystals. Confirm exchange?"

Su Jie's lips twitched slightly when he heard that number.

He recently learned from the system about the average transaction price of Hongmeng Dao Fruit in a market of the level of Qinglan Island.

Under normal circumstances, more than 40,000 Chaos Crystals can be sold at an auction, and sometimes even more than 50,000.

Su Jie felt that if it could be auctioned at an auction of the Wanbao Grand Event level, it would definitely fetch 50,000 coins.

As a result, the intelligent light orbs from Wanbaotianting directly chopped him down to his heels. Ten thousand of them were used. This swordsmanship was comparable to a sword fight.

But he also knew that this was Wanbao Tianting's rule. They were in the business of distribution channels and relied on making a profit from the price difference. From appraisal to auction to transaction, they would take a cut at every step.

If they can't even make this small profit margin, they might as well just stop acting and rob us outright.

Ten thousand coins it is, at least I've got the identity.

Su Jie clicked "Yes" on the confirmation option, and the light sphere immediately lit up:

"One Primordial Dao Fruit and 10000 Chaos Yuan Crystals have been credited to your account. Current contribution value: 10,000 Chaos Yuan Crystals."

Your application for non-permanent employee status has been completed. Congratulations on becoming a non-permanent employee of Wanbao Tianting. The following is a description of the obligations and rights of a non-permanent employee of Wanbao Tianting.

Su Jie heard this but did not check. "Unofficial employee" sounds prestigious, but in reality, it is the lowest level of status in the Wanbao Heavenly Court system.

They can certainly put on airs in front of those who are eternal, but once inside Wanbao Tianting, the gap between contract employees and regular employees is as clear as an insurmountable chasm.

Permissions, the amount of resources that can be accessed, and the level of intelligence gathering—each of these varies by several orders of magnitude.

His gaze returned to the floating dark golden sphere of light, where he found the "Member Permission Upgrade" option on the light screen and clicked it.

The screen switched, and new text appeared: "Member permission upgrade selected. Current level: Contractual employee. Eligible upgrade level: Permanent employee. View promotion criteria?"

Su Jie clicked "Yes." Clear lines of information appeared on the screen:

Promotion criteria for full-time employees:

1. Accumulate a total contribution value of one thousand Chaos Crystals (or equivalent items).

Second, at least one full-time employee or higher-level member of Wanbao Tianting is required as a recommending guarantor (this requirement may be waived for exceptional individuals).

Su Jie's gaze lingered on the first line for a moment; a thousand Chaos Crystals were acceptable.

However, finding a member of Wanbao Tianting's official staff on Qinglan Island who would be willing to vouch for him would be quite difficult.

He was a complete stranger on Qinglan Island, and he didn't know any of the official employees of Wanbao Tianting. He couldn't just grab anyone and ask, "Can you vouch for me?"

Su Jie's gaze lingered on the words "Special talents are exempt" for a moment longer, and he began to have some doubts.

What qualifies someone as a special talent?

He himself must be a special talent. Who has ever seen a supreme being and yet can defy and transcend?

However, he certainly couldn't reveal his true strength just like that.

Hmm, this Level 6 Venerable must be considered a special talent, right?

Although the number of Six Extremes Venerables is still quite large on the scale of the entire Chaos Mother Sea, they definitely meet the threshold of "special talents".

Moreover, he originally wanted to give Jiang Yue'er and Xian Mengyao an identity that would allow them to walk openly in the Chaos Mother Sea.

We can't just pull them out of the quasi-primordial universe every time we need them; doing it too often will inevitably arouse suspicion.

Why not take this opportunity to register their names at Wanbao Tianting as well?

They are all Six Extreme Venerables, and according to the rules of the Myriad Treasures Heavenly Court, they should fall into the category of special talents, thus exempting them from the guarantor requirement.

In this way, they can complete their promotion to full-time employees on their own, and he can also have them as his recommenders and guarantors, so that the three of them can join together, which is a win-win situation.

Do it when you think of it.

Su Jie looked around the separate room and confirmed that there were no monitoring arrays or spying methods, but he still did not pull the person out directly from the quasi-Hongmeng universe.

His ability to house living beings was one of his biggest secrets, and he would never reveal it if he could avoid doing so.
