Shen Yuan Ring

"You newbies? You just got some resources from me for free. You haven't even done a single mission, have you? Where did you get your points? Go away, don't disturb my rest. Come back when you've earned enough points." The manager lost interest when he heard these kids dreaming of going upstairs to exchange for spirit weapons, and waved them out.

Seeing that the manager didn't believe her, Ji Zihan didn't explain further. She simply took out her points token, inputted a stream of energy into it, and the token immediately displayed a string of numbers, which were the points stored in her account.

The manager's eyes widened when he saw the points number on the token. He hadn't expected that these kids, who had just gotten free pills from him, would have such a large number of points.

Seeing the steward's stunned expression, Ji Zihan asked calmly, "Are we currently eligible to exchange for Yuan artifacts?"

The manager, a man who had seen his share of ups and downs, quickly regained his composure and said, "Of course! Please come in!"

The manager watched them go up to the second floor, inwardly sighing with admiration.

(Strange things happen every year, and this year I've actually encountered one. Several children who just entered the inner courtyard have tens of thousands of points on them. Could they be the children of some important figure? But that doesn't make sense. Doesn't the inner courtyard have a rule against giving points to one's own children without permission? I have to report this to my superiors, otherwise I can't bear the responsibility if something goes wrong.)

Ji Xiaohu and the others quickly went up to the second floor.

The second floor has a large space, clearly expanded several times through the 'Sumeru Mustard Seed' formation. From the outside, it looks like a small single-story building, but inside it contains a vast universe.

The entire second floor resembled a weapons exhibition hall, with all sorts of weapons neatly arranged on shelves.

Ji Zihan was also amazed by the dazzling array of Yuan artifacts on the second floor. She then said to the others, "Everyone, find a suitable Yuan artifact for yourselves. In half an hour, regardless of whether you have found a suitable one or not, we will all meet here."

Before long, the four of them scattered to find suitable magical artifacts.

Ji Xiaohu and Wang Dan went together to the area for sword-type artifacts.

Seeing all sorts of weapons, a dazzling array, Ji Xiaohu and Wang Dan's mouths watered, wishing they could put all these magical artifacts into their storage bags.

"Little Tiger, I'll go check over there first."

"Okay, I'll go this way."

After the two separated,

Ji Xiaohu then began to repeatedly pick up the precious sword and tap it left and right.

After all, he cultivates the "One-Word Slash," which emphasizes speed. Therefore, the sword he needs cannot be too heavy, as that would affect his sword-slashing speed.

"Not a single one of these treasured swords is a low-grade Yellow-rank? That makes sense. In the past, the lowest cultivation level in the inner courtyard was always at the Tendon Refining Realm, so low-grade Yellow-rank swords were indeed inappropriate." Ji Xiaohu looked at the treasured swords, all of them of medium or higher Yellow-rank, and couldn't help but marvel at how wealthy the inner courtyard truly was!

After going around in circles, he and Wang Dan bumped into each other!

"Wang Dan, you already have a knife you like?" Ji Xiaohu asked, noticing that Wang Dan was holding two long knives while his own hands were empty.

"These are the two I have for now, but I'd like to look around and see if there are any better ones. I'll compare them later and then make a final choice. What about you, Xiaohu?"

"There isn't a single suitable one. All here are either long swords or short swords, either too heavy or too light. I didn't expect that choosing a magical weapon would be so difficult."

"Then go and take a look over where I came from; you should find what you're looking for there."

"Thank you for your kind words, I'll be going now."

While they were still searching for their respective treasured swords, Sun Puyue on the other side had already chosen her own weapon—the Green Bamboo Sword.

The reason I chose it is because it is so compatible with the "Green Bamboo Sword Technique" that I practice.

Not only do they share the same name, but the Green Bamboo Sword was also forged from top-grade spiritual material, green bamboo, over a period of forty-nine days.

Although the Green Bamboo Sword is only a mid-level Yellow-grade sword, it is still a top-tier sword among mid-level swords. Moreover, Sun Puyue's intuition tells her that this sword will have unexpected benefits when she practices the Green Bamboo Sword Technique, and she will regret it for the rest of her life if she misses this opportunity.

Ji Zihan was not as lucky as Sun Puyue, because the elemental weapon she chose was relatively uncommon.

"Is there no such thing as gloves? I've been looking for so long and haven't seen a single glove. I can't be that unlucky!" Ji Zihan was a little disappointed, but she did manage to find something. She picked out a cloak for Ji Daoyi.

"It seems I'll have to ask the manager; he'll definitely know where the gloves I want are."

Ji Zihan thought to herself and walked towards the bottom of the stairs.

"Puyu, you've already chosen your weapon?" Ji Zihan had just arrived when she saw Sun Puyu holding a dark green longsword and resting with his eyes closed at the meeting point.

Upon hearing Ji Zihan's voice, Sun Puyue opened her eyes and said, "Yes, I feel it helps my cultivation of Yuan techniques. By the way, Zihan, you chose a cloak?"

“This is what I chose for Ji Daoyi. I haven’t found one for myself yet. I was just about to go downstairs to ask the manager if they had any glove-type magical artifacts. I didn’t expect you to find a suitable one so quickly. Could you hold onto this cloak for me for now, and we’ll settle the bill together later?”

Sun Puyue nodded and watched Ji Zihan go downstairs.

Before long, with the manager's guidance, Ji Zihan also found the right gloves for herself—Flame.

She tried on the Flame Gloves, and the gloves fit her perfectly, so even wearing them normally wouldn't interfere with her daily life.

By infusing 'flame' with elemental power, it not only gains incredible defensive capabilities but also provides a certain power boost to palm and fist-type elemental techniques.

Ji Zihan liked the 'flames' more and more as she looked at them, and walked towards the meeting point with great satisfaction.

......

"Xiao Hu, have you made your choice yet? If you have, we'll head over now. Time's almost up," Wang Dan said to Ji Xiao Hu.

"It'll be ready soon. I'm just torn between choosing the Dragon Sparrow Blade or the Silver Moon Blade." Ji Xiaohu looked at the two blades in front of him. They were almost identical in both quality and grade, making it really difficult for him to make a decision.

"Wang Dan, why don't you give me some advice and tell me which one I should choose? I see that these two knives are the same, and I don't know which one to choose."

Wang Dan looked at the descriptions of the two treasured swords and analyzed, "Xiao Hu, you can choose this Dragon Sparrow Sword. Not only does the name sound imposing, but also, as you can see from its description, it incorporates a small amount of meteorite scraps. Even with just meteorite scraps, the Dragon Sparrow Sword is harder than the Silver Moon Sword of the same level."

Ji Xiaohu listened to Wang Dan's words and felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

"Wang Dan, you have such sharp eyes! I didn't even read the descriptions of these artifacts carefully. If it weren't for you, I would have really missed out on this Dragon Sparrow."

Ji Xiaohu then put the Silver Moon Blade back on the original shelf.
