After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

"A third-tier, eighth-grade black-scaled python!"

Jiang Zhixuan did not hide anything and answered truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao's pupils contracted sharply, and he looked back and forth between Qin Chuan and Jiang Zhixuan. "Did you kill them?"

Jiang Zhixuan nodded, then suddenly stuck out her tongue and said, "To be precise, it was all done by Senior Brother Qin alone."

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao looked Qin Chuan up and down, and sighed, "Looks like he really is a good piece of cow dung..."

Qin Chuan asked in confusion, "Elder Zhao, what did you say?"

He didn't hear what the other person said because their voice was too soft.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I was just complimenting you..."

Upon hearing Elder Zhao's words, Qin Chuan's lips twitched, and he immediately realized that the old man had definitely not been holding back any good news.

After glancing guiltily at Qin Chuan, Elder Zhao gave an awkward smile and quickly changed the subject, asking, "What's your name?"

Qin Chuan replied, "This disciple's name is Qin Chuan."

Elder Zhao nodded and then said, "If you were to kill the Black Scale Python by yourself, you should be able to enter the top ten of the freshman competition with your strength."

Work hard, and I hope you achieve a better ranking in the freshman competition!

"Thank you very much, Elder Zhao," Qin Chuan said, clasping his hands in gratitude.

Elder Zhao nodded, then took the identity token handed over by Jiang Zhixuan, changed the task record to complete, and stored 120 contribution points into the token.

After receiving her identity token, Jiang Zhixuan smiled sweetly at Elder Zhao, "Thank you, Elder Zhao!"

Immediately, the two turned and left.

Jiang Zhixuan looked at Qin Chuan and asked, "Senior Brother Qin, are you going to the third floor to pick up a mission?"

She remembered that when she saw Qin Chuan in the mission pavilion before, he seemed to be heading to the third floor.

Qin Chuan nodded. "Yes, I plan to take on some tasks on the third floor to earn more contribution points."

"Senior Brother Qin, you're amazing! As a new disciple, you actually dared to go to the third level to accept a mission!" Jiang Zhixuan gave a thumbs up, expressing her admiration.

Qin Chuan smiled and then asked, "So, what about you? Are you planning to continue taking on missions?"

"I'm not doing it anymore."

Jiang Zhixuan shook her head vigorously and slowly said, "I originally came to this mission pavilion out of curiosity, and then I felt that the missions on the first floor were not too difficult for me, so I came to the second floor."

I never imagined that this task, which I thought would be the easiest, would be so dangerous. I'll wait until I'm at a higher level before attempting it again.

"Okay, goodbye then." Qin Chuan nodded.

As he spoke, he walked towards the third floor.

As if remembering something, Qin Chuan paused, narrowed his eyes, looked at Jiang Zhixuan, and said in a low voice, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you before, I don't want to hear any news about Du Yifei from you. If I find out, you know what will happen."

Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Jiang Zhixuan stiffened, and her face immediately turned pale.

Although Qin Chuan had a smile on his face, she could sense a strong killing intent in it.

"I would never tell, don't worry," Jiang Zhixuan replied, somewhat disappointed.

After saying that, she sighed inwardly.

I thought that after spending time together today, my image in Qin Chuan's mind must have changed a lot, but it turns out that it hasn't changed much.

But Jiang Zhixuan also understood that the impression she had left on the other party was far from satisfactory.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhixuan secretly made up her mind that she must change her image in Qin Chuan's heart in the future.

After hearing Jiang Zhixuan's answer, Qin Chuan nodded in satisfaction and headed straight for the third floor.

He knew she was a smart person, though sometimes a little too naive, but revealing this would do her absolutely no good.

Therefore, Qin Chuan only touched on the topic briefly and did not say anything more.

The safest way would have been to eliminate Jiang Zhixuan while they were in the Qingcang Mountains.

This way, no one can reveal that he killed Du Yifei.

But Qin Chuan couldn't do that. Although Jiang Zhixuan was somewhat pragmatic, she didn't do anything bad to him.

He claimed he wasn't a great person and had taken quite a few lives.

He can be described as a cold-blooded and ruthless person who kills without blinking an eye.

But indiscriminate killing of innocent people is no different from being a beast.

Therefore, even though there were risks, Qin Chuan could only warn Jiang Zhixuan. As for other matters, he could only take it one step at a time.

Upon arriving at the third floor, Qin Chuan discovered that it was far more spacious than the first and second floors.

Looking around, there were only a handful of forty or fifty people choosing tasks in front of the task board on this floor.

Immediately, Qin Chuan's gaze swept over the task list.

Rank B Mission: Obtain the horn of a Tier 4, Grade 3 Unicorn Wolf. Reward: 950 Contribution Points.

Rank B Mission: Slay a Tier 4, Grade 1 Golden-backed Ape. Reward: 820 Contribution Points.

Rank B Mission: Harvest the Grade 4 spiritual herb, Seven-Star Lotus, reward: 1200 contribution points.

……

After seeing the contribution points above, Qin Chuan nodded in satisfaction.

These tasks offer decent contribution points; I imagine that after completing a few days of tasks, I should be able to stay in the Trial Tower for a while.

After selecting a few tasks to slay mystical beasts, Qin Chuan headed towards the elders on this floor.

As for tasks involving gathering spiritual herbs and killing higher-level mystic beasts, he ignored them all.

The uncertainty of harvesting spiritual herbs is too great. Sometimes the guardian beasts are of much lower cultivation level, and sometimes they are of much higher cultivation level, making it extremely risky.

However, the higher-level mystic beasts are too powerful, and he may not be able to defeat them. Therefore, he has his eye on the low-level mystic beast hunting missions.

"The identity token is not yours, so you cannot accept the mission."

The elder in charge of the third-level mission pavilion took Qin Chuan's identity token for a moment, then returned it.

"You can do that...?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan was taken aback, not expecting this outcome.

This identity token does indeed belong to the previous Zhao Zhigang.

Since the teleportation array was usable, Qin Chuan didn't think too much about it. However, he didn't expect that accepting missions would be unusable.

"Looks like I'll have to go see Instructor Guan first..." Qin Chuan muttered to himself, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to the elder before leaving the place.

……

Fallen Leaf Peak.

After leaving Guan Yueyue's main hall, Qin Chuan also obtained his identity token.

To his dismay, his identity token had always been kept in Guan Yueyue's main hall, where she had casually placed it in a corner.

She would have almost forgotten about it if she hadn't asked her about it herself.

"What bad luck to have met such an unreliable mentor..." Qin Chuan muttered to himself.

After glancing at the sky, Qin Chuan decided to go to the mission pavilion the next morning.

I've been running around all day, and it's almost dark.

If he were to head to the Azure Mountain Range late at night, the danger and difficulty would increase significantly, so he decided to wait until early tomorrow morning to take action.
