"Okay, I'll think about it," Chen Huai'an said calmly without arguing with the other party.

"Useless trash, you're smart enough to know your place. Although I don't know what my cousin has his eye on you, let me tell you, in the Qingyun Sect, there's nothing the Zhang family can't get." Zhang Long was very surprised by Chen Huai'an's attitude, and he looked at Chen Huai'an with an arrogant expression.

"Okay, I understand." Chen Huai'an suppressed his anger.

Although he was very annoyed by the other party calling him trash, he had to endure it today.

If you can't afford to offend them, can't you at least avoid them?

"Useless coward." Zhang Long spat fiercely when he saw Chen Huai'an's attitude, and then left with his men.

Zhang Long knew that Chen Huai'an had opened up thirty meridians, more than he had. He had appeared now to challenge Chen Huai'an, but he hadn't expected that this guy was such a coward who didn't even dare to fight him.

Watching Zhang Long's departing figure, Chen Huai'an clenched his fists tightly, then quickly relaxed them.

If he were given a few more days until he broke through, he would definitely kill those two arrogant and conceited guys.

He must kill Zhang Hu and Zhang Long as soon as possible, otherwise things will get very complicated later.

The secret of the sacred spring water must not be revealed.

For the sake of future development, this matter concerning the spiritual spring water must be brought to a perfect conclusion.

However, he needs to plan this matter carefully.

Otherwise, it will cause other troubles.

In Chen Huai'an's words, there was no need for him to argue with a dead man.

Back at his lodgings, Chen Huai'an was not discouraged; on the contrary, he was full of fighting spirit.

He immediately immersed himself in cultivation.

Anger won't solve anything; the best course of action is to focus on improving your skills.

Chen Huai'an was holding back a fierce determination during this training session.

These people have bullied and humiliated him; one day, he will make them pay double.

Zhang Hu is a new disciple who joined last year. He is already at the second level of the Body Refinement Realm and is very likely to break through to the third level.

However, he had not yet entered the Body Refinement Realm.

Next, Zhang Hu will definitely come looking for trouble with him and ask about the Spirit Spring.

If his strength is the same as Zhang Hu's, he is qualified to talk to the other party; otherwise, he can only tuck his tail between his legs when he sees the other party.

He will be able to break through the five meridians, which means he needs five high-grade body-refining pills, tonight.

Tomorrow, he will have to accept the menial tasks assigned by the sect.

No matter what task we need to accomplish tomorrow, having more strength means having more security.

If you're weak, you'll be bullied wherever you go.

Nothing was said that night; Chen Huai'an spent the entire night in arduous cultivation.

After absorbing one high-grade body-refining pill, he then took a second one.

After taking five Body Refining Pills, he had opened up all thirty-five main meridians, extraordinary meridians, and collateral meridians in his body.

With a deafening roar, his body trembled violently as the Qingyun Sect's body-refining technique completed a perfect cycle.

"I've broken through! I'm finally a cultivator at the first level of Body Refinement!" Chen Huai'an felt the surging power emanating from his body, and he remained silent for a moment.

His breakthrough is truly indescribable.

With so many cultivation resources, even geniuses with superior spiritual roots could use them to cultivate, potentially breaking through the Body Refinement Realm and reaching the Qi Refining Realm.

"Wanying, I have broken through to the first level of Body Refinement. I wonder what level you are in now?" Chen Huai'an stopped cultivating and looked in the direction of the inner sect.

The other party has a top-grade spiritual root, and their cultivation speed will only be faster than his. He needs to work harder.

The first step in the first level of body refinement is to open up the thirty-five main meridians and extraordinary collaterals in the body. Then, by spreading these thirty-five main meridians outwards, the smaller collaterals in the body are opened up.

There are as many as 365 of these Sun Luo (a type of magical creature).

The worse one's aptitude, the harder it is to open these meridians. Some geniuses, on the other hand, have naturally unobstructed meridians, and even if there are blockages, they can be opened with a little effort.

Body tempering is only the first step in cultivation.

Some martial artists in the secular world also focus on tempering their physical bodies, mainly by opening up the meridians in their bodies, especially the Ren and Du meridians.

Now, Chen Huai'an has broken through to the first level of the Body Refinement Realm. He is still a low-level handyman disciple in the Qingyun Sect, but if he were placed in the secular martial arts world, he would be a first-class master.

Previously, Chen Huai'an had also opened up some of his internal energy channels, and with this breakthrough, he directly reached the peak of the early stage of the first level of Body Refinement. As long as he opened up all the internal energy channels in his body, he would be able to break through to the second level of Body Refinement.

If Chen Huai'an had focused on those thirty-five main scriptures from the beginning, he would have broken through to the first level of the Body Refinement Realm long ago.

However, Chen Huai'an had no regrets. He learned from his mistakes and understood the survival rules for low-level cultivators.

The next day, Chen Huai'an and the other newly initiated outer sect servants gathered in the mission hall.

Today is the day they receive their sect's mission.

On his way there, he also heard a rumor that if you wanted to be assigned a good task, you had to spend money to avoid disaster.

The butler who assigns tasks, having accepted your bribe, will naturally assign you an easy and simple task.

Unfortunately, apart from a few with impressive backgrounds, most of these newly recruited menial disciples came from impoverished backgrounds. They had already consumed the two low-grade body-refining pills they were given upon entering the sect, so where would they find anything good to use to pull strings?

"It really is true that wherever there are people, there is a world of its own. Even the high and mighty cultivators are not immune to this." Chen Huai'an couldn't help but sigh.

Now, Chen Huai'an is considering whether to give the steward who assigned the task a little something extra.

But right now, Chen Huai'an can only offer the best things, and he doesn't want to be targeted as a nouveau riche.

As long as these people don't go too far, he can just tolerate it. At worst, he won't cultivate during the day; cultivating at night is the same.

Given enough cultivation resources, his cultivation level will definitely increase significantly.

Chen Huai'an and the other miscellaneous disciples lined up in a long row, receiving their tasks based on their identity tokens.

Soon, it was Chen Huai'an's turn to receive the task.

When the disciple assigning the task looked at Chen Huai'an, he sized him up as if they were very familiar with each other.

"You are Chen Huai'an."

Chen Huai'an, who hadn't expected to receive any preferential treatment, still felt a bad premonition after hearing the other party's words. He realized that he had been targeted by that scoundrel again.

"Senior brother, I am Chen Huai'an." Chen Huai maintained sufficient respect.

Those who can serve as stewards in the Mission Hall all possess high cultivation levels, reaching the late stage of Body Refinement.

The disciple in charge stared at Chen Huai'an for a few moments, as if he had something to say or was waiting for something. However, Chen Huai'an seemed to be blind to this and maintained a respectful posture.

"You have two tasks. One is to fetch water from the kitchen, and the other is to chop wood in the kitchen. Which task do you choose?" the disciple asked coldly.

"Chop wood, carry water?" When Chen Huai'an heard that he could choose one of the two tasks, he straightened up and frowned.

This task is the most arduous and exhausting task on Miscellaneous Peak, requiring a constant stream of free time.

Now, this prodigy who ranked in the top three in the entrance test has to start from the lowest level and the most arduous menial tasks.

It's impossible for Chen Huai'an not to have any resentment in his heart.

But what could he say? Could he refuse?

What frustrated the disciple was that he had hinted at it several times while speaking, but the guy was like a block of wood, ignoring his hints, which made him quite angry.

How come this guy has no sense of perception at all?
