Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 604 - 249 Gift_2

After going over all the important matters, all the chosen participants left, only Liu Qingzhu was kept behind alone.

minutes later, Liu Qingzhu left the Pill Dawn Hall and returned to the Flying Swallow Academic Hall.

Even at this moment, Liu Qingzhu felt like she was dreaming.

Today, the State Preceptor had been too kind to her.

He had transmitted four Star Patterns to her in one go.

And these four Star Patterns seemed like the latest versions from the National Daoist Institute.

For instance, the Meteor Star Pattern, a speed type Star Pattern from the National Daoist Institute, was something Liu Qingzhu had learned at the Fifth Tier Middle, and she knew that the latest version from the National Taoist Institute was at the Sixth Tier Lower.

But today, the State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao had given her the Meteor Star Pattern at the Sixth Tier Upper.

Sixth Tier Upper!

She had leaped across four minor tiers!

Usually, this would require establishing great merit four times to exchange for it.

But now, National Master Cheng Yue Xiao had just given it to her!

Just given it to her!

But what shocked her even more was yet to come.

Breaking Evil!

She was well aware that the National Taoist Institute’s Breaking Evil Star Pattern was at the Fifth Tier Middle, which was also what she had attained after exchanging great merits twice for the latest version.

But today, quietly and without fuss, National Master Cheng Yue Xiao had transmitted the Breaking Evil Star Pattern at the Seventh Tier Lower to her.

A Seventh Tier Star Pattern!

When she heard that the State Preceptor had given her a Star Pattern of Seventh Tier Lower, Liu Qingzhu doubted if she had heard it wrong.

The so-called law is not transmitted lightly!

The National Daoist Institute was extremely cautious about transmitting Seventh Tier Star Patterns.

When a cultivator’s cultivation level broke through the Sixth Tier, they would be awarded one Seventh Tier Star Pattern, and upon reaching the peak of the Sixth Tier, they would be awarded another Seventh Tier Star Pattern; the rest would have to be slowly earned through accumulating merits.

But today, the State Preceptor had directly passed the Seventh Tier Lower Breaking Evil to her.

This was a Divine Soul Star Pattern, a secret among secrets!

Legend had it that even the Lingji Star Hall had only extrapolated the Breaking Evil Star Pattern to the Sixth Tier Upper.

But now, the State Preceptor had directly given her the Breaking Evil at Seventh Tier Lower.

Liu Qingzhu was so overwhelmed with happiness that she nearly fainted.

But this hammer of happiness was not the heaviest one.

The heaviest was the Fire Origin Star Pattern that came after.

The State Preceptor had actually directly transmitted the high-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern at the Seventh Tier Upper to her.

This made Liu Qingzhu so happy she almost passed out.

The high-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern at Seventh Tier Upper, without even mentioning how it came about, not even a Sixth Tier Peak cultivator would necessarily obtain.

Yet she had been taught it early on.

This meant that she could spend five or even ten years slowly comprehending the high-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern of the Seventh Tier Upper.

Without saying more, when the time came for her to break through the Seventh Tier, the probability of success would at least increase by 10 to 20 percent.

But at this point, the happiness had not ended.

The Swimming Fish Star Pattern!

Another Seventh Tier Upper!

National Master Cheng Yue Xiao had actually transmitted another Seventh Tier Upper Star Pattern to her.

Liu Qingzhu really felt like she was about to faint.

Many Sixth Tier Peak experts might not obtain this many Seventh Tier Upper Star Patterns.

And she had already received three Seventh Tier Star Patterns, two of which were Seventh Tier Upper.

It was truly like being in a dream!

Liu Qingzhu returned to the Flying Swallow Academic Hall in a daze.

After returning to the Flying Swallow Academic Hall, she had all sorts of thoughts in her mind.

At that time, she asked the State Preceptor why he suddenly transmitted so many Star Patterns to her.

But the State Preceptor had only replied with one sentence: "This is what you deserve."

Which left her confused.

Could it be that she, Liu Qingzhu, was Cheng Yue Xiao’s illegitimate daughter?

She had to ask her mother when she got back.

But then she immediately dismissed the thought; their ages didn’t match.

The real age of the State Preceptor was unknown, but based on his growth trajectory, he should be between forty to fifty years old, most likely in the middle.

And she, Liu Qingzhu, was also over thirty.

The age difference between her and the State Preceptor was less than fifteen years.

It was impossible for her to be his illegitimate daughter.

Then what was it?

Could it be that the State Preceptor was after her... beauty?

This possibility actually existed!

On this point, Liu Qingzhu was very confident!

Beautiful face, long legs, a killer figure—wherever she went, she was the envy of other women.

But the problem was, it shouldn’t be like this!

If the State Preceptor was after her beauty, then he should be using it to press her.

To lure her with a Seventh Tier Star Pattern.

Then the question came: if the State Preceptor used a Seventh Tier Star Pattern to tempt her, would she or wouldn’t she...?

Probably not for one.

But what about for two?

"Three of them?"

"Key point is, the State Preceptor is actually pretty handsome."

"But now the problem is, the State Preceptor has given it to me directly."

"Directly!"

Liu Qingzhu became even more baffled.

"Is it give the reward first and then hint at something?"

"So, should he be sending me a Starlight Transmission now?"

"Asking me to go to Pill Dawn Palace tonight for enlightenment?"

"If I receive this Starlight Transmission, should I go or not?"

All of a sudden, the Star-picking Order trembled slightly.

This tremble made Liu Qingzhu a bit afraid to look!

"What if it’s the State Preceptor asking me to go over for enlightenment?"

"Should I go or not?"

After a long moment of nervousness, Liu Qingzhu’s thoughts sank into the Star-picking Order and her pretty face instantly darkened.

"Hey!"

"It turns out that her mom knew she was going to the battle and called her home for dinner tonight."

"What is this all about!"

Thinking it over and over, Liu Qingzhu couldn’t figure out the reason and didn’t wait for the Starlight Transmission either.

"Hey, forget it, I’ll just focus on cultivation for now. After all, I’ve already got the Star Patterns for nothing!"

The three days I have are extremely limited; it’s certain that I won’t be able to learn all four Star Patterns.

Liu Qingzhu made a choice swiftly.

She decided to focus on the Swimming Fish Star Pattern first.

She had studied it before, and a high-tier Swimming Fish Star Pattern was an absolute lifesaver.

Previously, the rank she learned wasn’t high, but now, with the Seventh Tier Upper Swimming Fish Star Pattern, it’s a must to master!

At the very least, within three days, she had to reinforce the Sixth Tier Upper Swimming Fish Star Pattern through engraving.

If there’s still time, then the Breaking Evil Star Pattern would be the first choice.

It could directly enhance combat power.

As for the others, they would have to wait until after the battle.

"Ah, what a pity!

It’s such a shame that the State Preceptor has applied a seal with the Nine Bright Chime, forbidding me from revealing even a tiny bit about the Star Patterns taught today, or else these four Star Patterns would’ve been enough for me to brag for a long time in front of my besties and Song Ziyue!"

Sighing with regret, Liu Qingzhu began to dedicate herself to studying the engraving of Star Patterns.

If she only engraved half of these few Star Patterns, even if her cultivation didn’t increase, her combat power would rise significantly.

If she managed to engrave them all, there would definitely be a place for her among the top twenty in the Fifth Tier Martial Learning battlefield!

*****

In the small courtyard, Xu Jin was also making preparations.

Just now, this Fourth Order Emblem Master from Da Chen National Daoist School had received an order from the Foreign Affairs Hall.

Within two days, produce at least twenty Third-tier Upper Emblems or ten Fourth Tier Emblems, and the National Daoist School will purchase them at a premium.

If there are any special circumstances, they can be reported.

This order, Xu Jin didn’t refuse.

With Xu Jin’s skills now, making Third Tier and Mid to Low Grade Fourth Tier Emblems is very fast.

Fifteen minutes for five pieces was Xu Jin’s average speed.

And the restriction of Divine Soul Power consumption, which limited other Emblem Masters, was not much of a limitation for Xu Jin.

For one, Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Cultivation was strong enough, and secondly, the effect of his Warm Dream recovery had grown stronger.

Just a short nap for 15 minutes would restore 20 percent of his Divine Soul Power.

So, this task wasn’t really a task for Xu Jin.

What Xu Jin needed to consider was just how much contribution to make to the National Daoist School.

After all, Emblems are in high demand now.

After some thought, Xu Jin felt it was better not to be too ostentatious.

Tomorrow, he decided to deliver to the Foreign Affairs Hall forty Third Tier Emblems and fifty Fourth Tier Emblems.

That would be more than enough to exceed the task.

The work of six or seven others done by one person.

"Jiang’er, come over here."

Suddenly, Xu Jin transmitted a message directly to Jiang’er, who was cultivating the Five Battles Killing Fist in the courtyard.

The next instant, Jiang’er came in wiping sweat from her brow.

"Brother, you were looking for me."

"You’ve reached the Sixth Layer of Dining Dawn, not bad."

"I just broke through this morning." Jiang’er’s little face was genuinely red.

With A+ talent and an abundance of cultivation pills like the Mental Awakening Pill and Star Refilling Pill, Jiang’er took only a month and a half to go from Star Pointing to the Sixth Layer of Dining Dawn.

This speed was considered quick at Jinshan Taoist Institute.

But at the National Daoist Institute, it was just a middling to low pace.

Xu Jin had always withheld top-grade Star Refilling Pills.

Improving cultivation level too quickly wasn’t usually a good thing.

Star Skill and Star Patterns are the key.

"Jiang’er, you’ve broken through to the Sixth Layer of Dining Dawn, so I have two gifts for you, as a reward," Xu Jin said with a smile.

"Gifts? Rewards?"

Hearing about gifts, Jiang’er’s eyes instantly curved into crescents, "Brother, quick, show me what it is!"
