You call this the way of the sword?

The interior of the state religion is like another world, covering a very large area.

Led by Li Qingxuan, Yang Qingfeng first set foot in the living area.

It is no exaggeration to say that the accommodation standard of the National Academy of Education is at least a "top-class villa".

Looking around, the residential area is filled with beautiful buildings and courtyards, with neat streets and alleys paved with bluestone. The sky is high and the trees are lush and the flowers are in full bloom, exuding a clean and elegant atmosphere.

"Here, this is where I live."

Li Qingxuan was in high spirits the whole way, talking about trivial things and occasionally making lewd jokes.

Her tall figure gives her a natural senior sister vibe, and the mischievous smile that always lingers in her eyes makes her seem like she loves playing pranks.

"You should know that all expenses at our academy are covered by contribution points, right?"

"There are three types of dorm rooms: single, double, and four-person rooms."

"4000 points per month for singles, free for couples, and 1000 points per month for groups of four."

"Free for two people?" Yang Qingfeng had just opened his mouth when Li Qingxuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

She excitedly replied immediately, "I'll live with my senior! She'll cover my room and board!"

Having been teased in ways both tangible and intangible all the way, Yang Qingfeng felt like he had a breath stuck in his chest and couldn't get it out.

Thanks to this, the initial awkwardness of meeting someone for the first time is unconsciously eliminated, and the distance between them is unconsciously shortened.

"Senior sister, be normal. This is the state religion. There are no monsters like you here."

"Hehehe, that's hard to say."

Li Qingxuan smiled and said, "They say you can't see into someone's heart. You can't think that there are no bad people in the academy. Not to mention that everyone has selfish desires, just the infiltration and temptation of foreign races can rot one's heart."

Yang Qingfeng naturally understood the reasoning, but in this state religion, there were cultivators everywhere. If any demons or monsters dared to show their faces, they would be cut into a pile of experience points in no time.

Even so, since Li Qingxuan said that, something must have happened, and Yang Qingfeng understood the implication in her words.

There is a high probability that there are external evils within the state religion.

Not surprisingly.

Yu Zhudu went to great lengths to use the grand examination to find high-ranking traitors. It's quite normal for a few petty thieves to infiltrate a melting pot like the State Religion.

During their casual conversation, Yang Qingfeng found a relatively secluded courtyard.

There was a gatepost at the entrance of the courtyard, and on the gatepost was something that looked like a trading bead.

Activating the magic bead with magic power caused a beam of detection light to shoot out from it, landing on Yang Qingfeng's brooch. After verifying his identity, his residential information appeared.

As Li Qingxuan said, you can rent a room alone or share a room. Regardless of the option, there will be four rooms in the building. As long as you contribute enough, you can allocate all the rooms yourself without any extra charge.

In that instant, a bold idea popped into Yang Qingfeng's mind.

Once he eliminates Qiao Lie, he can live a shameless life with Qiao Wanyi.

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Yang Qingfeng dismissed it. He glanced at Li Qingxuan, feeling a little resentful.

These days, his interactions with Qiao Wanyi have become much closer, and his once pure youthful passion has undergone some physiological awakening.

He's not easily provoked, but he just can't resist Li Qingxuan's teasing.

"What, are you going to visit your senior sister?"

Li Qingxuan had been observing Yang Qingfeng. When she saw his little eyes glancing over, she almost instantly showed a reproachful expression, as if she couldn't do anything about him, and said, "It's not impossible for you to live with your senior sister if you really want to. It depends on your preference."

"Senior sister doesn't live alone; there are two other senior sisters there too. They're very beautiful, with amazing figures. If you like studying with multiple people, that would be perfect. If not... then senior sister, you can just send them away, okay?"

Yang Qingfeng let it go in one ear and out the other, and then the information that popped up took his breath away.

Choosing to live alone will deduct 4000 contribution points.

[If your contribution points are insufficient, you can use reserve contribution points or silver coins to offset the shortfall. Would you like to use them?]

[Use reserve contribution points for deduction]

[Single occupancy: 8000 reserve points]

[Use silver coins for discount]

[Single-person residence: 4000000 silver coins]

Yang Qingfeng instantly felt something dirty squeeze his heart. A kind of overwhelming malice made his hand tremble slightly and his lips twitch.

He glanced at it in disbelief; there were three extra zeros!

Four million a month?!

What kind of place is this Teemo?!

Seeing Yang Qingfeng's shifting between confusion and shock, Li Qingxuan couldn't help but laugh and say, "That's right, the state religion is the world's biggest den of bandits. They'll rob you and expect you to do it willingly."

"Besides... new residents aren't allowed to live outside the community, it's not safe."

She wasn't joking.

Yang Qingfeng frowned immediately and said in a deep voice, "We're not in a hurry to find a place to stay. Could you please take me to the dungeon, or just give me directions?"

Li Qingxuan laughed even harder: "Don't you have 4000 new points? If you want to live alone, the first month will be free. You don't need to be so stingy, right?"

Yang Qingfeng's eyes widened slightly. What was this "newly promoted" thing?

Why didn't he have it?

Did his points get eaten by a dog?

Suddenly, the image of Liu Changge urging him to level up flashed into his mind...

Li Qingxuan tilted her head slightly in confusion and tentatively asked, "You...you really want to live with Senior Sister?"

Yang Qingfeng shook his head with extreme seriousness, and as he turned around, a hollow 'killing intent' flashed in his eyes.

They're using the power of the Pillar of State to take away his share!

They'll take all the money and then try to rip him off!

Despite Yang Qingfeng's silent insistence, Li Qingxuan had no choice but to take him to the cultivation area and explain some cultivation guidelines, but Yang Qingfeng wouldn't listen.

Now he just wants to stay in the instance and won't come out until he's scored 4000 points.

"For the difficult difficulty level of Broken Sword Spring Manor, we need one support among the Four Vajras! Please, could you send a junior sister? Or a junior brother would be fine too..."

"Hell-level Jiangcheng Town Demon, requires fully equipped Tier 4 gear and maxed-out skills, survival is at your own risk..."

"Normal difficulty Old Gate Village, cleaver-wielding team, four strong guys needed, click here to join!"

"Huh, level 17?"

"Newly appointed? You're too early, aren't you?"

The training area of ​​the National Academy is a large square where thousands of cultivators gather to "recruit talents," bustling like a vegetable market.

The arrival of Yang Qingfeng and Li Qingxuan immediately attracted a lot of attention.

At this moment, Li Qingxuan had already put on a veil, but she was still recognized, causing quite a stir. However, she didn't care, and Yang Qingfeng cared even less.

The two moved as if they were in an empty place, heading straight for the massive dungeon complex.

Behind the crowd, vortexes of teleportation served as entrances to the instance, arranged in an orderly fashion alongside information walls, forming clusters.

Upon closer inspection, the information wall displays information such as the level requirements, strategy recommendations, equipment drops, and completion records for each dungeon.

The cultivators can use the information wall to selectively choose which strategies to pursue based on their needs.

But Yang Qingfeng had a quicker way. He glanced at the information wall, then turned to Li Qingxuan and bowed, saying, "I don't want to trouble you with two people. Please ask Senior Sister to help me choose a dungeon with lots of experience and fast leveling, no difficulty limit."

As soon as he finished speaking, snickers immediately came from the side.

A young man said sarcastically, "There are always madmen every year, but this year they've come especially early. They spout off about anything and everything, aren't they afraid of biting their tongues?"

Yang Qingfeng remained unmoved, but Li Qingxuan cast a cold glance at him, which immediately captivated him, causing him to awkwardly turn his head away.

In private, Li Qingxuan seems quirky and mischievous, but once she puts on a veil in public, she becomes a completely different person, and even a single glance from her can be very intimidating.

But when she looked at Yang Qingfeng, the coldness in her eyes turned into a faint smile, and she said with great patience, "You reached level 17 in your new stage, so you must have cleared a secret realm beyond your level. In that case..."

"I suggest you play Bamboo Shadow Mountain on Hard difficulty."
