Gao Wu: I became a saint through daily settlements

"An A-level contract? For me?" Lin Yue was a little flattered.

He asked himself honestly, he was just an ordinary person who was slightly stronger than others, and he hadn't even awakened his martial arts talent.

What exactly do I possess that makes me worthy of being recruited by the Starry Sky Martial Hall with an A-level contract?

That's an A-level contract; even martial arts masters might not get a contract of that level, and I'm just a novice martial artist right now.

This contract is incredibly valuable!

Is it simply because of my good physical condition?

Not very realistic.

"Palace Master Tang, I believe no one would refuse an A-level contract, given its rarity. But I don't understand why you're giving me one," Lin Yue asked.

"Young friend, there's no need to hide it. I, Tang Long, believe I have some discernment."

"I'm willing to offer you an A-level contract because my Jingyue, like you, also practices ancient martial arts," Tang Long sighed.

Because there was no corresponding body-tempering method, Tang Jingyue's cultivation had not progressed at all, and he had been stuck at the peak of martial arts for a long time.

Lin Yue not only possesses ancient martial arts, but may even have corresponding body-strengthening methods, which gives Tang Long great hope. This is why Tang Long was able to give Lin Yue an A-level contract.

Every year, 1200 million Blue Star Coins are collected, continuing until graduation from university, all for that slim chance.

People of Tang Long's social class would inevitably have descendants who learn martial arts. Tang Jingyue, because he practiced ancient martial arts, has fallen far behind his peers.

The moment the term "ancient martial arts?" appeared in Lin Yue's mind, he understood what it meant.

"The Rongchengzi Daoyin Technique is a body-strengthening method written by Rongchengzi, the teacher of the Yellow Emperor and Laozi in ancient times."

"It is not reasonable to call it an ancient martial art."

The "Bear Classic" and "Bird Exercise" that Lin Yue practiced were the contents of "Rong Chengzi's Guiding Techniques".

I have relied on these two body-strengthening methods to get to where I am today.

"So this method of cultivation is called ancient martial arts." Lin Yue realized.

"Judging from what Palace Master Tang is saying, ancient martial arts are not limited to my style; there are many other categories!"

It seems the other party came for my body-tempering technique.

However, he had quite a few body-strengthening methods, and he chose to cultivate the "Bear Classic" and "Bird Strike" simply because these two were more suitable for him.

What's wrong with giving up one article for this A-level contract?

"Could it be that Palace Master Tang is willing to give me this A-level contract because of the body-tempering technique I possess?"

Upon hearing Lin Yue's words, Tang Long's eyes lit up instantly.

It seems there's hope?

Tang Long originally came with the mindset that even if he couldn't obtain the Body Tempering Method, he would still want to forge a good relationship with Lin Yue.

"Yes, young friend, you are indeed clever. I have come here today precisely for the Body Tempering Method."

Tang Long had no intention of hiding anything; the more he tried to hide, the more mistakes he would make, so it was better to be honest with everyone.

A-level contracts are the highest level he can provide within his authority. Anything higher would require approval from the Martial Hall headquarters at each level, a process that is cumbersome and subject to too many variables.

"Jingyue has been practicing ancient martial arts, but not only has his cultivation level improved, he can't even control his true qi." Tang Long shook his head, somewhat regretting that he had let Tang Jingyue learn ancient martial arts.

Tang Jingyue's talent is not bad. If he had cultivated normally, he might have reached the level of a martial master by now. There is no reason why he is stuck at the level of a martial artist and unable to break through.

"But rest assured, young friend, your secret of the body-strengthening method is known only to you and me. No one else here will hear it, and I will never let anyone else know."

As the master of a palace, Tang Long's words naturally carried weight.

Besides, even if Lin Yue didn't believe it, there was nothing he could do. After all, Tang Long was far stronger than him, and he didn't even have a chance to resist.

"I do have a body-strengthening method, but I don't know if it's suitable for me." Lin Yue knew he couldn't speak too confidently.

This is a rare opportunity, so we must be extremely cautious.

Body tempering techniques are very particular about compatibility; the higher the compatibility, the faster and stronger the cultivation will be.

Low compatibility not only slows down cultivation but can also backfire.

What if Tang Long doesn't need the body-tempering technique he possesses?

"It's alright." Tang Long laughed heartily.

Having a body-strengthening method is already a good thing; as for its suitability? I'm afraid people will be greedy and try to swallow an elephant.

Tang Long is not a greedy person.

Tang Long was able to rise to the position of Hall Master of the Martial Hall because of his integrity and his ability to know when to stop.

"In that case, I'll have someone send this A-level contract to your personal terminal immediately. If you're not satisfied with anything, you can contact me."

A light shone in Tang Long's eyes.

"This is my WeChat ID, please write it down."

Soon, Lin Yue added Tang Long's WeChat account, noting that he was the master of the Starry Sky Martial Hall.

"Young friend, you are indeed straightforward!"

"If I can successfully help Jing Yue break through this time, he can come to the Martial Hall to find me for anything in the future."

"I will do my utmost to help you." Tang Long cupped his hands in greeting, then waved his hand, and Lin Yue emerged from the space filled with true energy once again.

"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you." Tang Long said with a slight smile.

Everyone speculated about what Tang Long had said to Lin Yue, but it seemed that both of them were quite satisfied.

"Could it be a B-level contract?"

"Impossible. Even Xu Beihai only got a B-level contract. How could Lin Yue possibly get one?"

Amidst the murmurs and whispers, Tang Long simply smiled and remained silent.

After a conversation, he could tell that Lin Yue was a low-key person who didn't like to show off.

Therefore, the matter of the A-level contract need not be made public to avoid unnecessary trouble and covetousness.

Tang Long planned to publicly announce that he had a B-level contract, but secretly he would be treated as if he had an A-level contract, and he would make up the difference himself.

As the master of the Starry Sky Martial Hall, he still possessed this much authority and confidence.

Seeing the smiles on their faces, Cai Yue knew that Lin Yue's signing with the Starry Sky Martial Hall was a sure thing.

It seems that my decision to directly award Lin Yue the Special Scholarship was absolutely correct!

However, he had to thank Li Yuan for his recommendations all along; otherwise, he would never have been able to learn about Lin Yue.

"So, this means that six students from our school have been specially recruited by the Martial Hall this year, which is unprecedented in the school's history."

Cai Yue was secretly pleased. In previous years, at most two or three people would be specially recruited by the Martial Hall, but this year, there were a total of six.

"It seems that our Jiangcheng Wuke Affiliated High School really has a chance to surpass Hehai High School and become the number one high school in Linhe District."

"Li Yuan has been a teacher of regular classes for so many years, it's time for him to be promoted," Cai Yue murmured.

"By the way, Principal Cai, if your school has any mechanical engineers, you can contact me. The Martial Hall is also short of such talent recently," Tang Long instructed.

Fighting astral beings requires not only force but also technology.

Cai Yue was well aware of this, so during his tenure, he established a mechanical engineering class in order to make achievements in science and technology.

"No problem, Lord Tang."

......

Jingshan Residential Area.

"A Class B contract?" Gu Feng was speechless.

How could someone receive a B-level contract before even entering the ranks of martial artists?

"When did the Starry Sky Martial Hall become so generous?"

"Today, the Xuantian Martial Hall and the Chitian Martial Hall also conducted special recruitment at Hehai Middle School."

"However, Gu Yutang only received a C-level contract."

Gu Feng thought that a C-level contract was already top-tier among his peers, but he didn't expect that Lin Yue's contract was even higher than C-level.

What he didn't know was that, on the surface, Lin Yue received a B-level contract, but in reality, it was no different from an A-level contract; otherwise, he would have been utterly astonished.
