After working for both the righteous and demonic factions, I became a big shot.

you go?

Sikong Ying subconsciously wanted to say, "What are you doing during your Qi Refining stage?"

But remembering Shen An's performance yesterday, he agreed, thinking he had nothing to lose.

"Alright, Junior Brother Shen, leave a message for Master, we'll head back now." Sikong Ying said no more and immediately tossed a blood-red broadsword into the air.

At the Golden Core stage, one cannot fly freely through the air; it is better to use magical artifacts to fly faster.

Shen An left a message for Lan Yue Fairy, and then jumped onto Si Kongying's blood-stained blade.

To be honest, this kind of broadsword does offer more space than the flying sword, and it feels very secure to stand on it.

"Junior brother, hold on tight, we need to get back as soon as possible." Sikong Ying turned around and reminded Shen An, then made a hand seal and began to accelerate at full speed.

Having previously experienced the Moon-Gazing Fairy's almost teleportation-like flying ability, Shen An now felt that this sword-wielding flight speed was just average.

I need to seize the time these next two days to break through a few more barriers. After all, I've already entered the inner sect; reaching the Qi Refining stage is really not enough. I should at least reach the Foundation Establishment stage...

Lanyue Peak was not too far from the council hall, and the two arrived at the foot of Lanyue Peak a quarter of an hour later.

Before even entering, Shen An saw colorful lights floating above Lanyue Peak, along with magical weapons such as swords, spears, and axes flying around.

Seeing this, Sikong Ying hurriedly sped up her pace.

"Oh no, how come they're fighting so well? Could it be that someone else has joined in?"

Sikong Ying had a look of utter disbelief. Judging from this situation, there were at least five Golden Core cultivators participating in the battle, not just two!

"Junior Brother Shen, stay far away for a while. Let them calm down first." Sikong Ying was afraid that Shen An would be implicated.

The physical sense.

Shen An was quite self-aware; he hid far away as soon as he landed, but he still made sure to have Sikong Yingzi deliver a message.

"Senior Brother Sikong, just tell me that the system of rewards and punishments has already been decided by Master and is in my hands. Please, fellow senior brothers and sisters, stop fighting."

Sikong Ying glanced at the notebook in Shen An's hand, assuming it was a rule set by his master, and then picked up his broadsword and rushed over.

Only then did Shen An realize how terrifying Sikong Ying was!

Sikong Ying's aura surged, the blood-red blade in his hand emitted a crimson light, and his true essence erupted like a volcano. The chilling pressure of his Golden Core transformed into a visible red wave of energy that swept outwards from him!

The blood-red longsword in his hand seemed to come alive, emitting a deafening hum, and the blood-red light emanating from the blade shot into the sky.

"Stop it, all of you!"

He roared like thunder, his voice mingling with the violent intent of his sword, causing the magical artifacts flying everywhere to pause.

In the next instant, his figure transformed into a streak of blood-red lightning, ruthlessly cutting into the center of the battle. Before his blood-red blade was even drawn, the terrifying killing intent, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, had already enveloped the entire area, causing several Golden Core cultivators in the midst of the fierce battle to tremble in their hearts.

Late stage of Golden Core? This senior brother is actually a powerful expert at the late stage of Golden Core...

As Shen An sensed the overwhelming malevolent aura, he realized just how terrifying a demonic cultivator at the late Golden Core stage truly was.

Even from a great distance, he felt a pang of anxiety.

"Sikong Ying?! Mind your own business!" A Golden Core cultivator wielding a fiery flying wheel roared angrily, but could not hide the fear in his eyes.

Sikong Ying didn't speak, but instead slashed his blood-red blade through the air, and a crescent-shaped scarlet blade aura roared out, crashing fiercely between several magical treasures that were about to clash!

In order to temporarily quell the situation, he immediately unleashed his ultimate move!

"boom!"

Amidst the deafening roar, the turbulent energy flow was forcibly diverted and torn apart by the blade's aura.

Sikong Ying stood holding his knife, his chest heaving violently, and even his hands were trembling uncontrollably.

After just one move, he was already exhausted.

"Have you had enough?"

His gaze, sharp as a knife, swept over every fellow disciple present: "Master has decreed that the reward for this matter has been decided. Anyone who makes a move will be disobeying Master's orders!"

These words immediately calmed down the group that was about to attack; clearly, they dared not disobey Fairy Lanyue's words.

Because if their master gets angry, he really will cripple them.

"Fellow disciples, before Master went to the meeting, he had already decided on the method and amount of this reward." Shen An came running from a distance, holding a notebook in his hand.

Upon seeing that the person who arrived was Shen An, everyone restrained their aura slightly, afraid of accidentally hurting this junior brother.

On the first day, he gained the favor of two peak masters, and on the second day, he became his master's personal disciple. How could they possibly mess with him?

And not to mention what he's holding in his hand now.

"Junior Brother Shen, please read out Master's distribution arrangements for this time." The one who spoke was the Golden Core cultivator who had previously told Sikong Ying to mind his own business. Shen An had a deep impression of his flying wheel.

At this moment, it wasn't just the few people fighting; almost all the disciples of Lanyue Peak who were unharmed were here. After all, who wouldn't love to watch something exciting?

Shen An was under immense pressure from his senior brothers and sisters, who were all stronger than him and were demonic cultivators. However, he still pretended to be calm and opened the notebook.

He had already written down the amount of the rewards to be distributed based on everyone's performance.

"This time, Master has set a temporary rule: the rewards for this mission will be distributed based on a points system."

"This points system is different from the points we usually get from accepting sect missions. It mainly consists of basic points and contribution performance bonus points."

"The basic points are very simple and easy to understand. The maximum score is fifty points, based on the time and completion rate of each senior student."

"As for contribution performance points, they are based on whether you have done anything that benefits your fellow disciples and Lanyue Peak during the mission."

"For example, Senior Brother Sikong. This mission was to seize the spirit stone mine occupied by the righteous path. Senior Brother Sikong not only dealt with his opponents very well, but also took the initiative to stay behind to cover the retreat when the righteous path was pursuing him."

"Therefore, Senior Brother Sikong's points are fifty basic points plus ten performance points, for a total of sixty points."

Upon hearing this, Sikong Ying blushed slightly. Was this really a matter of sharing? He simply felt that since they had all come together, he should lend a helping hand.

After Shen An explained it this way, everyone understood, although they also felt it was strange. They were demonic cultivators, so why were they helping each other?

But since Sikong Ying did buy them time to evacuate, they appreciated it and had no objections.

Seeing this, Shen An breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't made a mistake; this rule applied to Lan Yue Peak!

Sometimes, compared to being loyal and righteous, demonic cultivation is more enjoyable than the righteous path.

If this were on the righteous path, and you said you stopped the demonic cultivators from pursuing you, shouldn't that be the duty of fellow disciples?

Then, Shen An began to read out each person's score to everyone.

Although some people occasionally voiced their opinions, those who were on the same mission as him would speak up and say that he hadn't helped his fellow disciples at all during this raid on the spirit mine, and the person would lower his head.

With a quantitative scoring standard that is accepted by most people, everything becomes much easier.

You say you deserve the most credit, but your credit isn't within the performance evaluation criteria. I'm sorry, you can only get basic points. If you have any objections, ask everyone if they agree.

Or do you think there's a problem with this performance rating standard?

So, when Fairy Lan Yue rushed back to save the day, she witnessed this bizarre scene:

A group of disciples at the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stages were surrounding a person in complete silence, their eyes fixed on the notebook in that person's hand.

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Lan Yue Fairy scratched her head. No, in the past, wouldn't she have beaten a dog's brains out by now in this situation?

She's planning to make an example of someone today.

Moreover, she couldn't understand any of what Shen An was saying about points or performance.
