Chapter 55: list refresh

Lu Qianqian, Li Qingyang, and the other disciples continued to Qingyang Village to finish their missions. Others started a new day of cultivation, but not in the training area. Instead, they moved to a nearby open field. 

Why?

It was because the wandering swordsman named Ma Yongning was still kneeling on the training ground, cradling the broken blade in a daze. 

Even when the sun had risen high up into the sky and the air was hot, he remained unmoving. It was like he had lost his soul. 

Ma Yognings blade was not of high quality. But as a swordsman, his sword was his life. Now that it was broken, it was equivalent to cutting half his life. 

Sect Head, Su Xiaomo said weakly. That guy is very pitiful. Should we set up an umbrella for him?

Jun Changxiao pointed at the crumbling sect gates. My gates are more pitiful than he. They were doing just fine, but they were kicked off their hinges.

In the meantime, Ma Yongning finally stood up holding his broken sword. Solemnly, he said, I have been defeated today. This Ma is not as skillful as you, but I will come to challenge you again another day!

After a farewell, he put on his bamboo hat and turned to depart. 

Although he regarded his sword as part of him, breaking it had not borne a grudge. This was because he was sincerely convinced that he was not as skilled. 

Ma Yongning shouted, A sense of humility and valor, that is the way of a true swordsman!

Jun Changxiao rolled his eyes. Is this fellow insane?

Ma Yongnings appearance to compare notes was nothing but a small interlude. After he left, the disciples returned to the training grounds and continued to cultivate. 

By noon, they ate the lunch prepared by Liu Wanshi and felt that life was too good.

Dudu, Jun Changxiao said. The inner courtyard has some open areas, you can use them to make the vegetable garden or establish a pen. Later, all food supplies and preparation will be handed over to you.

En! Liu Wanshi nodded, eyes gleaming despite the heavy responsibility handed to her. 

Jun Changxiaoo returned to the Main Hall and cultivated the Tendon Altering Sutra. He then opened the system interface. 

I have 86 contribution points How should I spend them?

He opened the system store and discovered that the Basic Insight Talisman was back in stock, which he bought without hesitation. 

This thing was not directly beneficial to his disciples, but was good for stealing others’ martial arts techniques. The more techniques one knew, the better. 

Jun Changxiao hummed, The only thing left from the gift package is the Escape Talisman. If there is an expert in the future, I fear that things will be difficult. I should prepare for the future and buy some things to protect myself.

He then pulled down on the tab, scrolling down. 

But after looking at the entire list, he had not found anything. There were some items whose names sound promising, but they were all flashy and lacking substance functionally useless items. 

For example, there were leak-proof chamber pots selling for 10 points. The description explained that there was a special space inside the pot so that the user did not have to pour the pot out every day. It also came with a self-cleaning function, leaving absolutely no odor. 

If it had only been 1 point, Jun Changxiao might have considered it. After all, it was troublesome to have to get up and pour out the chamber pots.

There were many other rare and unusual products in the store, but because they were all useless, they wasted the limited slots on the list. 

The system said, [The store has a comprehensive list of items, not all of them will necessarily help Host improve strength. If Host is unsatisfied, you can refresh the list, maybe you will get something good.]

Trying to trick me into spending contribution points again?

Jun Changxiao understood that this was possible, but after some consideration, still decisively refreshed the page. 

[Ding! Contribution Points: 66/100.]

After using 10 contribution points to refresh, the low-grade items list presented a whole new batch of products. Jun Changxiao dubiously looked over the list, but saw a Basic Power Talisman priced at 20 points. 

So expensive?

He opened the item description. 

[Item: Basic Power Talisman

Effect: After usage, the users strength will be instantaneously quintupled.

Effectiveness: 60 minutes

Limitations: Users body must be physically strong. Otherwise, the user may be tired or injured after the talisman expires. 

Price: 20 contribution points]

Five times the strength? Jun Changxiao stared wide-eyed. My current strength is close to 2000 jin. After I use this, wont it be equal to 10,000 jin?

Buy!

Without hesitation, purchase!

[Ding! Host has spent 20 contribution points, obtained Basic Power Talisman x1. The item has been transported to the storage ring.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution Points: 46/100.]

86 contribution points. Buying two talismans and refreshing the list once had cost 40 points, but Jun Changxiao did not care. After all, these points had to be spent at some point. 

These are only low-grade items, so the mid-grade and high-grade and so on items must be increasingly awesome!

As he thought this, he opened the mid-grade items list. He saw that the first item was 1000 contribution points and immediately closed the tab. The corners of his mouth twitched as he said, Existence beyond hope!

The system said, [Based on the hosts cultivation based and sect construction level, even if you can purchase the mid-grade items, you are unable to use them.]

Jun Changxiao did not respond. 

Instead, he glanced through the rest of the item list. After a moment, he leapt directly off his throne. 

What did he see?

He saw a gun a Modified Desert Eagle!

Theres actually guns too?!

Jun Changxiao was shocked. 

Back when he had bought the Tendon Altering Sutra, he had thought about searching for a 98K. He didnt expect that after two refreshes, he actually did find a firearm, even if it was just a pistol. 

He opened the item description. 

[Item: Modified Desert Eagle

Description: The prototype is the 0.357-caliber Israeli pistol, which was modified to fit the Gaowu World. It uses a crystal core to condense energy bullets. 

Effect: Firing rate is quick and penetrating power is high.

Effectiveness: Permanent

Limitations: Although it has been modified, it has the inherent strong recoil of firearms and is not suitable for long-distance attacks.

Price: 10 contribution points]

Jun Changxiao murmured, It actually doesnt use bullets but energy from a crystal core.

According to the memory of the original Jun Changxiao, crystal cores were taken from the cores taken from savage beasts. Even the inferior-grade cores could go for 1000 taels. 

Should I buy it? 

Jun Changxiao hesitated. 

Although it was a modified firearm, he was unable to determine how strong it was based on the description. What if someone could catch the bullet bare-handed? That would be really awkward. Moreover, he didnt even have the crystal core to power the pistol. 

He hesitated for a while. 

Jun Chang Xiao ended up purchasing it. After all, he was from Earth since childhood, hed had a special place in his heart for guns. 

[Ding! The host has spent 10 contribution points and obtained Modified Desert Eagle x1. The item has been transferred to the storage ring.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution Points: 36/100.]

Before the prompt even finished, Jun Changxiao had already gone to check his storage ring and took the silvery-white Desert Eagle out. 

It has some weight to it, feels better than the toy guns I used to play with.

Shua!

Holding the gun with one hand, he pointed at an empty space and pretended to be chic, Sorry, I have a gun.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

The childish Jun Changxiao even pretended to fire a few shots. 

Just then, the system notifications were heard again. 

[Ding! Hou Xiaohu has plowed ten acres of land, completing the sect mission.]

[Ding!]

[Sect Achievement Points: 3/100.]

[Sect Contribution Points: 37/100.]
