Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 507 - 296: Reputation System_2

If it hadn’t encountered Lu Yu, as long as it could digest the blood meal it had plundered this time, it could have broken through its current realm and further enhanced its strength. It was extremely unwilling, dying without closing its eyes.

Lu Yu contained the boiling Qi Blood within him, and the Qi Blood that had dissipated from his body surface slowly faded away. He walked towards the group amidst the mess of the dual-headed ancient winged serpent’s innards.

When the group saw Lu Yu walking over, they instinctively took a few steps back. Their eyes were filled with shock as they looked at Lu Yu, thinking that this newcomer was, at most, as strong as their captain.

They never imagined he’d be strong to such a shocking extent. They had never heard of anyone being able to tear apart a high-tier spirit realm monster with their bare hands.

The captain, who had broken through countless trees, finally returned. His first glance relieved him significantly, seeing the few standing at a distance unharmed.

He then felt puzzled; didn’t the dual-headed ancient winged serpent attack them?

Following the group’s astonished gazes, he turned to look at Lu Yu, and at first glance, saw the corpse of the dual-headed ancient winged serpent behind Lu Yu, its innards scattered everywhere, with yet-to-be-digested human bones.

After a moment of silence, he expressed his respect by cupping his hands towards Lu Yu and thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Lu, for your assistance."

Although Lu Yu had just joined Celestial Wind Academy, calling someone stronger than oneself "Brother" felt fitting in a world where strength rules.

The group tidied up the corpse of the dual-headed ancient winged serpent and headed in the direction of Panshan City with their spoils.

Captain Zhang Jue took a piece of emerald green pouch-like item and a pair of small bony and leathery wings and walked over to Lu Yu.

"Brother, the dual-headed ancient winged serpent that you slew, these most valuable spoils belong to you. After task settlement, the Spirit Stones from selling the serpent will also be distributed according to team rules to you," Zhang Yu said.

Lu Yu accepted the items handed over and said, "You keep the Spirit Stones for yourselves; if you don’t have anything else, I’d like to take on a few more tasks."

"Hmm?" Zhang Jue looked at Lu Yu somewhat surprised. Logically, after reporting the task, Lu Yu, due to his overwhelming strength, would be assigned to another team. Unexpectedly, Lu Yu was willing to take them on a few more missions.

This golden opportunity, Zhang Jue certainly wouldn’t miss. He didn’t need others’ opinions, immediately said, "No problem, Brother, what task do you want to take on, I’ll take it right now."

Only the captain within a team has the authority to take on tasks, preventing members from taking random tasks that a team can’t fulfill, affecting others’ task completions.

As for which tasks to take on, Lu Yu had already decided.

Wanting to gain the most prestige quickly, naturally, one should spread their reputation far and wide. The more people see one’s strength under proper display, the faster prestige increases.

Very quickly, the task was submitted, but because Zhang Jue said he would continue to take on tasks, the team members did not leave, so Lu Yu’s strength was only known to the team members.

After submitting the task, Lu Yu received the experience points and prestige rewards for the task.

[Completed "Conquest of the Dual-Headed Ancient Winged Serpent" task, gained 1 million experience points]

[First-time completion of a faction task, Prestige System activated, current prestige: 60]

"Prestige System?" Lu Yu reviewed the detailed introduction to the Prestige System, which states that when prestige accumulates to 200, a 20% experience bonus is obtained, and the higher the prestige, the more significant the experience bonus.

When prestige exceeds 500, one can apply to enter the external battlefield.

A prestige value of 500 indicates Lu Yu has garnered some fame, exerting considerable influence within a certain scope.

However, the experience bonus effect of the Prestige System only applies on the external battlefield.

Actually, increasing one’s fame aids in cultivation; everyone knows that. The more people know and respect one, the greater support from the world’s force one receives, accelerating the cultivation speed significantly.

Those who previously wanted to defeat Lu Yu, leveraging the notoriety of Lu Yu defeating the illusion of the Unparalleled Sword God, aimed to expand their fame with this thought.

However, subsequent events didn’t prove that Lu Yu was the one who defeated the Unparalleled Sword God, so the matter in An Nan City didn’t spread too far. Otherwise, Lu Yu’s prestige would have undoubtedly exploded.

Yet he dared not publicly reveal this matter to boost his prestige.

Just the suspicion alone attracted so many challengers. If it was confirmed, even those ancient figures wouldn’t hesitate to shamelessly end him before his potential fully developed.

Ding~ Lu Yu noticed that his prestige inaccurately increased by 1, glancing around, puzzled as he hadn’t done anything, pondering why his prestige increased on its own?

Not long after, Zhang Jue returned to where the team was located, having already settled the task, received the task rewards, and promptly sold the dual-headed ancient winged serpent for Spirit Stones.

Although Lu Yu said he didn’t need the Spirit Stones, Zhang Jue still gave Lu Yu most of the Spirit Stones obtained from the serpent sale, which others didn’t have much objection to, as Lu Yu would lead them in more tasks, ensuring benefits outweigh sharing Spirit Stones with Lu Yu.

As Zhang Jue handed over the Spirit Stones, Lu Yu accepted them without refusal, glanced casually, noting he received over 20,000 Spirit Stones.

Converted to gold, this equates to over 2 million gold, with the dual-headed ancient winged serpent bearing the bloodline of the ancient nine-headed serpent, its value is slightly higher.

Nonetheless, the most valuable serpent gall and ancient wings were removed, selling for three to four million gold was quite normal.
