After leaving the equipment room, Feng Yun decided to earn more Credit.
Only then could he train inside Shengyuan Tower, using the special environment to speed his progress.
"I only have 200 Credit now—enough for just two hours on the first floor."
Feng Yun shook his head, feeling the Credits were insufficient.
This sentiment was shared by almost all academy students, even the talents.
There were so many places to spend Credit—not only on training but on Martial Techniques, Cultivation Arts, Alchemy Pills, and equipment.
Feng Yun was lucky since he only needed to focus on training; everything else he could project and loot freely.
"To earn Credit quickly, I'll take some tasks."
He'd learned the academy issued regular tasks, or accepted commissions from outside, all displayed on glowing screens in the academy hall for students to select freely.
Completing these granted Credit rewards.
Typical tasks paid several hundred to thousands of Credit—a substantial amount.
That's why many Strong List talents were often away on missions instead of staying in the academy.
"Let's see."
Since he couldn't find talents inside the academy, he headed out hoping for extra gains.
The majestic academy hall was crowded with students, with many coming and going.
Feng Yun felt the vastness of the place—still quite spacious even with hundreds gathered.
The floor was paved with blue steel stone, immune to scratches from swords.
On the walls were multiple light screens displaying all task information.
To accept or submit tasks, one just needed to log in with their ID card.
Feng Yun browsed the tasks.
The first showed an image of a spiritual herb with flashing text:
[Task]: Find Baiyuan Herb
[Difficulty]: White-level
[Reward]: 200 Credit
[Suggestion]: Baiyuan Herb grows in Night Snow Forest's inner area; suitable for Warriors
He understood task difficulty levels ranged from White (low) to Grey, Black, Red, etc.
White was for low-level Warriors; Grey for mid-level; and so forth.
He eyed the Grey-level tasks to practice first.
Though approaching the Grey task area, he drew attention because of his youth, much younger than other students.
"Who's that kid? So young."
"He's taking on a Grey-level task—must have mid-level Warrior strength?"
"Why have I never seen him before?"
"..."
Though Feng Yun's name spread in the academy, his appearance was little known.
Ignoring the whispers, he focused on the Grey-level tasks.
Suddenly, one task caught his eye:
[Task]: Assist the Law Enforcement in Capturing Blood Thorn Alliance Members
[Crimes]: Assassination of key base personnel, disruption of order
[Strength Analysis]: Five Blood Thorn Alliance members, Cultivation Levels range from low to mid-level Warriors
[Reward]: 2000 Credit
[Suggestion]: Suitable for mid-level Warriors
Feng Yun's eyes lit up—this was it.
He'd heard of Blood Thorn Alliance, a notorious underground assassin organization widely seen as a cancer by many bases.
Once discovered, total extermination was guaranteed.
He was interested in their assassination and stealth techniques and saw this as a good practice task, so he accepted without hesitation.
Logging in with his ID card, he took the task immediately and left the academy to the rendezvous point.
Meanwhile, in Xingyao Base's inner city, four figures gathered in a plaza—three men and one woman.
One's watch suddenly rang.
"Oh? The Xingyao Academy task has been accepted."
Others looked over, but upon seeing the task taker's info, they sneered.
"Feng Yun? A low-level Warrior? What's a low-level Warrior doing here?"
"Note he's only 14 and already a low-level Warrior. A prodigy!"
"So what? Talent doesn't mean power. Fourteen years old—how strong can he be?"
They were part of an enforcement squad cooperating with the academy.
"Alright, he's coming. Stay alert."
At that moment, a voice asked, "Are you the ones issuing the Blood Thorn Alliance task?"
The squad leader looked and saw a youth in blue armor carrying an alloy battle sword.
His handsome face had youthful features but his aura was imposing, hiding his age.
The leader nodded warmly, "Yes, you must be Feng Yun, welcome."
"Hello."
Feng Yun approached and immediately projected the squad members.
All their data displayed fully—comprehensive and clear.
