0099_ Contribution Points
The name of the person who declared war on Min Lun was Yang Xiang, and he was the number one climber.He was stuck at the top of the mountain at the last moment, and after him, the climbers who were only one step behind him were eliminated on the spot.
It stands to reason that the last place he passed with such fear and fear belonged to two different worlds, so there shouldn't have been a head-on conflict. However, Yang Xiang performed well in the official exam, at least he thought He performed well - there is no ranking in the official exam, only pass or fail, and there are some opportunities for make-up exams.
So after knowing that mountaineering is just a pre-selection and the official exam is the most important thing, Yang Xiang felt that Min Lun ranked first, even if it was the first place that has no practical meaning, it was too lucky, and he himself was just lucky when climbing the mountain It's not good, so he fell to the last place, and every time the list was announced, he was the last to be read.
Yang Xiang decided to prove this point, starting by challenging Min Lun.
Because he was sure that he would win, and because he wanted to let as many people see the fact that he won as much as possible, Yang Xiang chose to go to the ring.
The so-called ring is the official event of Yunxia Sect, and this 'official' is mainly to distinguish it from private fighting.How the disciples fight in private is their own business, but in the ring, it will involve contribution points.
As the internal currency of Yunxia Sect, contribution points are very important to every disciple, more important than silver in the mortal world, and more important than spirit stones in the cultivation world.Because contribution points can be exchanged for spirit stones, and even silver, but spirit stone silver cannot be exchanged for contribution points.To be more precise, the exchange ratio is very outrageous. It is not an exchange between currency and currency, but a transaction between discarded products and currency. Lingshi silver is regarded as a discarded product, and normal people would not consider such an exchange. .
——By the way, when exchanging contribution points for spirit stones, spirit stones belong to the price of new listing pits, and silver is slightly better, which belongs to the price of ordinary daily necessities.Anyway, exchanging spirit stones is the least recommended way to use contribution points, and exchanging silver, even a monk should not have such thoughts.
Disciples of Yunxia Sect, according to different identities such as outer sect and inner sect, and according to different levels such as Zhu Jin Dan, the sect will distribute some contribution points to each person every month, which will be directly credited into the disciple's account, and some physical objects will also be distributed at the same time. , including spirit stones, pills, etc.This is a monthly example.
But the number of such monthly cases is very limited. Generally speaking, the monthly cases of the Jindan stage are only enough for the foundation-building stage, and so on, anyway, they are all one level behind.If you want more, you must make actual contributions to the sect, such as weeding the planting peak, walking the dog on the beast peak, finding precious items and handing them over to the sect, getting important information to the sect, and completing the mission of the sect seniors. Assigned tasks count...
There are many ways, but the basic principle is that the more precious and difficult it is, the more contribution points you will get in exchange.Obviously, newcomers can only do some basic chores at most, and the contribution points they can get can only be counted bit by bit--the upper-level people of the Jindan stage like the big brother, when the contribution points are most embarrassing, they also use hundreds of points to enter the account. as the unit.
It is only more than a month since the end of the selection meeting. The monthly rules are issued at the beginning of each month. New disciples receive it twice. The contribution points that outer disciples in the foundation building period can receive are five points each month.With a little contribution point, you can buy a bottle of low-grade Bigu Pill, which contains ten pills. Considering the training volume of Yunxiazong's outer sect disciples, one Bigu Pill can provide the energy consumption needed for a day, and some of them can be increased by themselves. For the amount of training, you may have to eat three bigu pills in two days.
In other words, Bigu Pill alone will consume at least three contribution points a month.This is equivalent to a monthly salary of 5000 yuan in the previous life. Meals alone—especially the most basic three meals a day that keep people from starving to death, not counting snacks or treats—will cost 3000 yuan.The Engel index is quite impressive, absolute poverty.
If you don’t eat Bigu Dan, but eat in the canteen, you have to pay for the meal, which is more expensive than Bigu Dan—nonsense, chef Jin Danqi, even if the chef usually doesn’t cook for freshmen, as long as this person is around, he can’t ignore the price tag .
There are also foods, such as Hunting Peak.Yunxiazong does not limit the hunting method and quantity of the disciples in the Qi training and foundation building period on the Hunting Peak, and the prey they hunt will also belong to the disciples.It doesn't matter whether it's for food or handed over to Zongmen for other things, it's up to you.
This way can theoretically obtain all the resources needed for Qi training and foundation building. The only problem is that the result of hunting on the Hunting Peak may not be the prey but the prey. The creatures there are not easy to bully.In the end, the food is often enough, and the cost of healing medicine is huge.
0100_referee
Of course there are referees for ring competitions, usually inner disciples who are one level higher than the contestants.For example, this time, both Min Lun and Yang Xiang were in the Foundation Establishment stage, so the referee invited a senior from the Jindan Stage, and the appearance fee for this senior will be paid by the loser, ten contribution points.
If the loser hasn't used the contribution points for more than a month, he can afford to pay, but as long as he has used them, he will have to owe the debt.
Looking at Yang Xiang's complacent look, it seems that he has never considered that the person in debt may be himself - I know that Yang Xiang's bigu pill was brought from home, and I haven't finished eating it yet, but I also Knowing that he accepted a collection task, but the spirit grass he collected had a problem. Not only did he not get paid, but he also lost his contribution points.I don't know the exact amount, but he definitely doesn't have ten contribution points.
Speaking of it, the job of being a referee is quite boring, because you can only be a referee for juniors who are lower than yourself, so the contribution points you get from these juniors are often not enough to fit your teeth.This time, Yang Xiang may have set a high fee to cheat Min Lun.New disciples have the most conflicts and are the poorest. They often have to judge at one or two points, because Yunxiazong has regulations. When invited to be a referee, if there is no reasonable reason, they must not refuse. ten times the fee.
Dozens of contribution points are nothing to Jindanqi, but it is very distressing to deduct them for nothing. Jindanqi’s monthly payment is only [-] points, and this basic income cannot be ignored just because the main income is not monthly.Besides, it doesn't take much time to be a referee. Most Yunxiazong disciples are used to being responsive to this matter, and it has gradually developed into an interesting thing.Gossip and gossip about the love and hatred of the juniors will be recorded as black history and used to tease the grown-up juniors in the future.
The general sentence pattern is: "When I was your referee..."
In short, this is a good opportunity to catch the pigtails of the younger generation.
0101_ not genius enough
Facts have proved that Yang Xiang still has two talents, or it should be said that those who can pass the exam and become official disciples of Yunxiazong all have two talents, and it is impossible to rely on pure luck—even if luck is true. The very good Shi Bolin also has talents besides luck.
However, there is a difference between having two brushes and having two brushes.
It was almost the first move of the two of them, with my high-end eyesight - the swordsmanship I saw the most was from my father, who was at the level of a god, so although my strength may be mediocre, but my eyesight is really good - ——I saw the result, Yang Xiang lost miserably.
In fact, no need to start, just the group training for more than a month is enough to let me know that Min Lun is indeed the well-deserved No.1, there is no element of luck.
His foundation is so solid, I have only seen it on Jianxiu Peak during the foundation-building period, and the foundation-building period on Jianxiu Peak, except for those like me who have an advantage in the place of birth, is, according to what the old man said, A natural material for sword repair.That is to say, the kind of natural sword cultivators who are assigned to Jianxiu Peak to start professional training immediately after the spiritual root test after the Yunxiazong selection meeting is over, and do not need to stay at the main peak for further screening.
Min Lun suffers from his spiritual root, his pseudo-single spiritual root makes everyone uncertain about his future, so although his other qualifications have met Jian Xiufeng's requirements for accepting apprentices, in order to make up for his lack of spiritual root , he also needs to show a higher level of aptitude enough to create miracles.
Ordinary geniuses with three or more spiritual roots can enter Jianxiu Peak directly as long as they are once-in-a-hundred-year geniuses, but if they want to directly enter Jianxiu Peak with a pseudo-single spiritual root, they need to be a once-in-a-thousand-year genius.
Min Lun was evaluated as more than enough for a one-in-a-hundred-year encounter, but he was not so good for a one-in-a-thousand-year encounter, so he could only start as an ordinary outer disciple on the main peak.
——The above is the gossip from the big brother.The gossip of the big brother is basically equivalent to the official news.
0102_IOU
Min Lun played very modestly, obviously he could seriously injure Yang Xiang within three strokes, but it took him thirty strokes to send Yang Xiang out of the ring.During the whole process, he only attacked once with the No.30 move, and the first 29 moves were all dodging and defense.The only attack was to send Yang Xiang out of the range of the ring, making Yang Xiang lose according to the rules of the ring, without hurting Yang Xiang at all.
...Oh, no, it hurt Yang Xiang's self-esteem.
Smash class.
After being sentenced to lose, Yang Xiang's face was pale at first, and then flushed, and the veins in the hand holding the sword were bulging. He stared at Min Lun for a long time, tongue-tied, but it was the referee brother who broke the stagnant atmosphere first. The brother said:
"Transfer the referee fee to me first?"
Yang Xiang: "..."
I speculate that his mental activity is: not enough contribution points.
The referee brother was very talkative, and he kindly provided a contract paper for Yang Xiang to write an IOU.
The contract paper is a magic weapon, and the upgraded version also has a contract book and so on.The clauses written above have a mandatory effect, and once the contract is violated, penalties will be imposed according to the content of the clauses and general laws.The higher the grade of the contract paper, the stronger the binding ability and punishment execution ability, and the harder it is to be destroyed.
Of course, Yang Xiang's IOU for five contribution points would definitely not be able to use high-end contract paper. The referee brother took out the lowest-grade low-grade contract paper, and sold it for ten contribution points for one in the Yunxia Sect store.
Same status as the Bigu Pill, this kind of contract paper is a training item for talismans after getting started, and it is also one of the guaranteed sources of income for talismans during the Qi training and foundation building period.
In other words, like alchemy repair, talisman repair, and tool repair, basically you can earn money after getting started. Although bigu pills, contract papers and other items are not high-grade, they consume a lot of money. Anyway, they will definitely be sold if they are made. The difference is nothing more than the price at which it is sold.
In comparison, the profit cycle of planters and beast masters is longer, and if there is an accident in the middle, the spirit plant and the spirit beast die, and they have to lose money.
But what is even worse is the sword cultivator. The profession itself has no output at all, and because the training method is more focused on actual combat, it consumes a lot of energy and has a high chance of injury. It can only earn living expenses by doing tasks, treasure hunting, hunting, etc., but these things are The easy ones earn less, and the difficult ones pay more.In short, if a sword cultivator with a low cultivation base does not have a good sect background, he will generally be a bit down and out.
But sword cultivators themselves don't feel that they are down and out, they call this state of life a part of their cultivation.Self-proclaimed: Sword cultivators shouldn't care too much about surprises, and have the courage to challenge themselves.
Not only sword cultivators are proud of this, but the world generally thinks so, thinking that monks should be like this, and sword cultivators are the model of monks.
Alas, no matter what the mainstream values think, anyway, I have a backer, and under this premise, I really like the sword repair's sturdy fighting power.In the words of a rogue swordsman who is not very popular with the mainstream: What's wrong with being poor?I can grab it.Anyway, all of you alchemy cultivators, talisman cultivators, weapon cultivators and other cultivators can't beat me.No matter how much money you can make, you can only obediently surrender to me.
Shhh... bullying the weak goes against the accepted principles of sword repair, especially my father dislikes this.
