Simulation: My family's financial situation is infinitely improved

Chapter 22 [Famous, a Jade Sword Grass]

The commotion outside has nothing to do with Lin Heng at the moment.

During the practice, four months passed in a flash.

On the day of the Grandmaster Ceremony, after months of accumulation, Lin Heng finally successfully completed another transformation and reached the fourth level of the Grandmaster realm.

You can clearly feel that the body is growing and developing rapidly, and the muscles, bones, skin, flesh, internal organs, blood, and brain are becoming stronger and more perfect, and the essence of life is improving.

"Yes, my physical strength has increased a lot."

Sensing the changes after the breakthrough, Lin Heng nodded with satisfaction.

Every increase in cultivation level brings about a qualitative change in combat power.

Compared to when he first entered the Grandmaster realm, Lin Heng is now much stronger.

After completing the breakthrough, Lin Heng did not stay in the cold pond. He returned to the Kongming Palace and took a quick bath with the help of the maid. He washed off the old skin on his body caused by the transformation of his body and changed into a newly made solemn dress.

Although only four months had passed, Lin Heng, who had just turned ten, had grown to a height of 1.78 meters due to practice and natural growth.

This rapidly developing and maturing body is more suitable for combat.

In addition to growing in height, Lin Heng's face gradually shed its childishness, his facial features became delicate and three-dimensional, and he was filled with the confidence and heroism accumulated through years of practice.

If someone didn't know Lin Heng, they would think he was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old when they saw him for the first time.

If the 20 points of Lin Heng's charm before brought the cuteness that is unique to human cubs, then at this moment Lin Heng has a lot more attraction to the opposite sex.

During the process of putting on clothes and accessories, the maid who was serving Lin Heng looked at him with amazement.

If it weren't for the girl's modesty and the difference in status that made them dare not offend her, they would have wanted to stick to Lin Heng at this moment.

Lin Heng's expression was calm, but he was somewhat happy in his heart.

Who doesn't like being looked at with admiration?

Everything was ready, and Lin Heng appeared in public at noon.

Lin Heng, who was as handsome and elegant as a banished immortal, immediately attracted the favor of many people who met him for the first time.

"Thank you all for coming to attend my Grand Master Ceremony. Lin Heng is not talented, so I will offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."

After appearing, Lin Heng spoke with a smile.

Compared with the solemnity of the apprenticeship ceremony, the atmosphere of this grandmaster ceremony is much more relaxed.

After all, the apprenticeship ceremony is to accept disciples, while this time it is mainly to make Lin Heng famous, and it is a large-scale social gathering.

So when Lin Heng appeared, the heroes from the martial arts world who came to attend the ceremony had already taken their seats.

Seeing Lin Heng raise his glass, everyone stood up out of courtesy and raised their glasses in return.

After that, the cold dishes were removed and the hot dishes began to be served.

There were also many disciples of the Yunjian Palace who had already prepared themselves and presented their singing and dancing talents to the guests, making the atmosphere particularly lively.

The heroes of the martial arts world came to participate in the Grand Master Ceremony, and the list of gifts presented to Lin Heng had already been kept by Elder Duzhi, so Lin Heng didn't need to worry about it at the moment.

After Lin Heng's appearance, he sat down at the main table for dinner. Under the guidance of his master, Xiao Rang, he met many unfamiliar masters from the Cloud Sword Palace. He also chatted and laughed with envoys from the other two martial arts sacred places and some major forces in the martial arts world. Three rounds of wine passed, and five dishes were served.

Next comes the free socializing phase, where people look for development opportunities or exchange ideas with fellow practitioners.

Compared to the last apprenticeship ceremony where he just watched from the sidelines, this time Lin Heng personally took part in the ceremony and sparred with many masters whose cultivation level did not exceed the fourth level of Grandmaster.

These masters were either disciples of the Yunjian Palace or had good relations with the sect. They held back when they attacked at the beginning so as not to embarrass Lin Heng and also to avoid trouble from the elders of the Yunjian Palace who were eyeing the ring covetously.

But after fighting for a while, they found that Lin Heng was not just a fancy man with a certain realm.

His ethereal swordsmanship has reached the second level of sword intent. Every move he makes is accompanied by powerful sword energy. Combined with his swift and agile body movements, his combat power is not weak.

Although he made many mistakes at the beginning of the battle due to lack of combat experience, as the number of sparring sessions increased, Lin Heng relied on his strong understanding to summarize his own strengths and weaknesses, and he was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This change amazed everyone in the field.

Many neutral forces that were originally hesitating whether to surrender have made up their minds to follow the Yunjian Palace and the steps of the young master Lin Heng in the future.

Finally, the competition ended and Lin Heng achieved a good result of twenty consecutive victories.

As the Grandmaster Ceremony came to an end, this achievement was publicized, making Lin Heng's prestige in the martial arts world even higher.

The next day, after seeing off the heroes of the martial arts world, Lin Heng and several sect leaders were checking the harvest of the Grand Master Ceremony in the warehouse.

"For this Grandmaster Ceremony, we received a total of 703 million taels in gifts, and other assets worth 1102 million taels."

Elder Wei Xuan of Duzhi couldn't stop smiling.

Although many of the gifts received this time need to be returned, about 60% were given by outsiders to curry favor with the Yunjian Palace. They do not need to return actual money, just some protection and convenience.

Although this amount of money is still not enough to cover the cultivation resources that Yunjian Palace invested in Lin Heng, it is still a big recovery.

Xiao Rang didn't care much about these things. Money is only valuable if it is spent.

His focus was all on things that could help Lin Heng improve his strength.

"Yes, there is a natural treasure, the Jade Sword Grass. In addition to tempering a warrior's physique, it can also stimulate the development of sword spirit. It is just right for Heng'er. There are also many spiritual medicines that can be used to make pills. These will be useful later."

"It was given to me by Li Yang, who has already completed his apprenticeship. His cultivation level of the eighteenth level of the Xiantian realm is about to break through to the Grandmaster realm. When he breaks through, I will teach him a body protection magic skill and then accept his offspring into the sect as an inner disciple to learn the skills as a reward."

Xiao Rang picked out a jade box from the pile of gifts, checked it and handed it to Lin Heng.

Lin Heng was looking at the huge pile of gold and silver, feeling a little dazzled.

Gifts worth more than 10 million, plus some of the sect’s savings, really piled up into a mountain of gold and silver.

But after seeing it so many times, it became just like that, and Lin Heng quickly got used to it.

Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Lin Heng took the jade box containing the precious jade sword grass and swallowed the jade-colored grass with long, straight leaves like a long sword in one gulp.

Afterwards, he walked out of the treasure house and began to practice.

The medicinal power of the Jade Sword Grass gradually spread throughout Lin Heng's body, making him feel as if all the meridians and acupoints in his body were being cut and tempered. He naturally imagined a Jade Sword Grass standing tall and cutting through everything.
