“Master, I… I have only been in the inner sect for a short while.
Fang Yuan was not too happy about it.
He was a low-profile person.

To live a new life, he cherished his life very much.
He knew the principle that the tallest tree in the forest would be destroyed by the wind.

How could he be willing to stand at the center of the storm as the leader and be stabbed in the spine by the other nine people?

To be honest, he did not have much of a reputation in the Gu Immortal Sect.

He was not even as good as Zhang Wenbin.

Even Wan Qian's reputation was more resounding than his.

She had at least the title of one of the three experts of the younger generation. What about him?

He had no battle results and no achievements.

At most, his strength was passable.

No one knew about him yet!

No matter how amazing he was in the outer sect competition, it was only the outer sect.

Those who could enter the inner sect were all amazing.

Only the status of Gu Zhenren's personal disciple could make others think highly of him.

But this could not convince the masses.

In this world, status did not matter.

Fang Yuan did not want to adjust his relationship with the other nine teammates, and in fact, there was no need to.

He only wanted to cultivate silently. When crisis came, he could take care of himself and the people around him.

Gu Zhenren thought he did not have enough experience, thus he explained, “Actually, the Gu Dao convention is a way for the empire to befriend rising stars of the sects.”

“It is held once every four years, and it happens to be held at the same time as the inner sect competition of each sect that happens every four years.”

“Our Gu Immortal Sect's outer sect competition that you were in happened to be the fourth year.”

“And in the past three years, the results of the disciples who got into the inner sect were not as good as yours.”

“Moreover, you are my personal disciple, it is only natural for me to let you lead the team.”

Fang Yuan scratched his head, feeling annoyed. He did not know how to reject.

Gu Zhenren smiled. “The Gu Dao convention is a grand gathering of Gu masters from the entire empire. The victorious sect will not only receive the title of Yan Shen's number one sect, the top hundred will also be rewarded.”

Fang Yuan's eyes immediately lit up. “Are the rewards generous?”

Looking at his money-grubbing little disciple, Gu Zhenren couldn't help but laugh. “Those who perform well will even get a chance to enter the palace to meet the emperor. If they can receive the emperor's appreciation, the benefits naturally go without saying.”
Fang Yuan wasn't interested in the so-called emperor's appreciation, but since it was the ruler of the Yan Shen Empire, he definitely wouldn't be stingy with his attacks.

After weighing the pros and cons, Fang Yuan felt that the benefits of this trip were greater than the disadvantages.

If he could get a Platinum quality Gu worm, it would be limitless for his future development.

“Okay! Master, I'll go!”

Fang Yuan agreed immediately.

“You're so straightforward, aren't you going to make any requests?” Gu Zhenren asked in understanding.

“Hehe, can I?”

Fang Yuan was a little embarrassed that his thoughts were exposed.

“No!”

Gu Zhenren's expression was serious, “You are going out with the glory of the sect this time, don't embarrass me.”

“Alright…” Fang Yuan felt it was a pity that he couldn't get more benefits.

“However,” Gu Zhenren glanced at him. “If you get good results, what's the harm in me giving you a reward?”

“Understood!”

Fang Yuan smiled, “I will not disappoint you!”

“Tomorrow, I will gather the other disciples to wait in front of the hall, you all can get to know each other.”

“Yes!”

“Oh right, your Dao partner Wan Qian is also on the list for this Gu Dao convention, but she has some family matters and left first. When you arrive at the capital, remember to contact her.”
“Understood.”

Fang Yuan suddenly thought of Li Tongzhou's assessment and asked, “Master, about the matter of Li Tongzhou taking the investigation hall's assessment… how did it go, did he pass?”
“I paid attention to the person you recommended, this child has a good character, he is just a little eccentric, but it is not a big problem.”

Gu Zhenren took out a token and handed it to Fang Yuan, saying, “This is the identity certificate for passing the test, and represents an investigation hall disciple, but he still needs to go through a series of training. Please inform him.”
“Yes, sir!”

Fang Yuan was happy, Li Tongzhou was his friend. Being able to enter the inner sect was a good thing, he would not have to worry about not having a place to drink in the future.
After leaving the main peak hall, Fang Yuan made a trip to the Gu spirit hall and the mission pavilion.

He went to the Gu spirit hall for the Gold quality Gu worm.

Other than that, there was also the reward for completing the investigation hall's new disciple assessment, a Silver quality Gu worm.

Fang Yuan walked around twice, and through the system, he found the two he liked.

[Heavenly Essence Gu] (Gold quality): Can store the power of five elements, and can greatly increase the Gu master's attribute lethality.

[Returning Essence Gu] (Silver quality): Can absorb the thin elemental energy between heaven and earth, and the absorption range will increase as the rank increases.

This time, he had chosen Gu worms that could make a complete set.

After complementing each other's abilities, the benefits would be much greater than a single Gu worm's.

'The Heavenly Essence Gu was like a huge elemental energy storage, while the Returning Essence Gu was like an elemental energy harvester.

After taming them, he threw them into his acupoints and waited for them to grow to rank three. In the future, he would no longer have to be stingy in using elemental energy.
He went to the mission pavilion and looked at the mission he had given to search for good wine.

During this period of time, a total of dozens of drinks were submitted.

Fang Yuan looked through them one by one. Through the system's investigation, there was only one that could be used.

[Gun Huo Shao] (Spicy): An extremely strong wine, estimated to increase the success rate of the Drunken Gu's breakthrough by 20%.

20% was exactly one-fifth.

It was already the best of the five flavored wine.

For the other wines that were provided, it was already very good if it contributed 6-7%.

Fang Yuan did not say anything else and directly handed over the primeval stones.

He also fed the wine to the Drunken Gu.

[Ding, your Drunken Gu has obtained spicy wine. It has received a buff. Intoxicated Rage has increased its effect by 100%!]

Very good!

Next, he only had to hand over the investigation hall token to Li Tongzhou.

Fang Yuan arrived at the outer gate through the teleportation array.

In the end, he discovered that Li Tongzhou had actually gone into seclusion, which was rare.

“Why is he working so hard now?”

Fang Yuan shook his head, turning to look at the setting sun on Luo Mu Mountain.

If that was the case, he could only go and help the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu..
