Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing asked curiously, "Senior Brother, have I only seen Hua Lao and Li Chun among the management so far, and no one else?"

Taking the Water Pavilion as an example.

The highest manager is the Nascent Soul Pavilion Master, also known as the Water Monarch.

The next level is the Talisman Chief.

The next level down is the Steward.

The next level down is the Rain Master.

Finally, the Water Spirit Root Disciples.

As for the Spirit Field side, the highest manager is called the Farming Master.

The next level is the Grain Master.

The next level down is the Steward.

The next level down is the Spirit Cultivating Envoy.

Finally comes the Wood Spirit Root Disciples.

That is to say, Hua Lao, who has lived a very long time, holds only a middle position among the management at the Spirit Field Core.

Above them are still the Grain Master and the Farming Master.

The problem is, Xu Zhangqing has joined the Spirit Field Core Management Office for nearly five years, but no matter what time he goes to that palace, only Hua Lao is there, and occasionally he can see a few staff members.

That Li Chun is meeting for the first time in years.

He always felt that these people usually keep a low profile.

Li Sancai said matter-of-factly, "They also need to farm."

"Uh." Xu Zhangqing opened his mouth, but stubbornly could not refute.

Li Sancai continued, "Usually, having Hua Lao manage the Spirit Fields is enough."

"As for the Grain Master and the Farming Master, they live in Xianfeng and rarely come down to meet us."

Xu Zhangqing suddenly understood, "No wonder I haven't seen them."

Li Sancai's mouth corner twitched, "Guess what position that Li Chun holds?"

Xu Zhangqing spread his hands, "Excluding Hua Lao, then only the Spirit Cultivating Envoy is left."

Li Sancai nodded slightly, "The role of this Spirit Cultivating Envoy is to monitor almost all the spirit plants in the entire Spirit Field. Generally not very busy, only in the last few days of the four seasons does he need to go to the Core Management Office for supervision, and occasionally patrol the entire Spirit Field."

Xu Zhangqing shook his head, "I am not a Spirit Cultivating Envoy yet, saying this is useless, and besides, I am not interested."

Li Sancai said meaningfully, "Some things cannot be refused just because you are not interested."

Xu Zhangqing thoughtfully said, "Like that foolish prince?"

Many things look like pies falling from the sky, but actually there are many factors behind them.

A fool gets promoted on his first time farming.

Wouldn't others discover it?

Everyone is not a fool, each one is shrewd!

Next, the two had nothing else to talk about, so they quickly separated.

Xu Zhangqing stepped on Big Leaf Grass and flew directly toward the Spirit Field Outer Perimeter.

Along the way, he was thinking about the matter of "position change."

The Rong Family and the Zhang Family have operated at the Spirit Field Core for so many years; it can be said they have great families, great businesses, and wide connections.

If they want to obtain this "Spirit Cultivating Envoy" position, not to say it is certain, but they have more chances than others, especially than himself.

But from the current situation, Li Sancai appears especially confident.

It seems the water here is deep.

Xu Zhangqing shook his head, "Forget it, take it one step at a time."

He indeed is not interested in this Spirit Cultivating Envoy position, only thinking of keeping a low profile to develop.

But if he cannot refuse, then it doesn't matter either.

Not long after, Xu Zhangqing came to the Spirit Field Outer Perimeter again.

Compared to spring, there are many fewer unfamiliar faces in summer.

The vast majority of Outer Perimeter Disciples are those left from the previous quarter.

"Senior Brother Xu!"

"Senior Brother Xu is here again!"

"Quickly look at what's wrong with my spirit rice?"

When everyone saw that familiar Big Leaf Grass, they were all excited beyond measure.

As soon as he landed, at least several hundred Outer Disciples swarmed over, appearing especially enthusiastic.

Looking at the one immature face after another before him, Xu Zhangqing smiled slightly, "Everyone, if you have any problems, just say it, I will solve them one by one."

The whole person still has no airs at all.

On the Left Side, Lin Ya leaned on the railing with both hands, saying with an expression full of envy, "Look at this popularity!"

Both come from the Spirit Field Core Management Office, and both are Formal Disciples.

But one is surrounded by everyone.

One was left out in the cold.

If you say it doesn't hurt inside, that's definitely fake.

But what truly made Lin Ya suffer, or rather the only thought in her heart.

Was actually: "Why isn't the person beside Senior Brother Xu me?"

……

……

In the following days, everything was ordinary and uneventful.

Xu Changqing's life rhythm became very fixed.

Cooking, handling daily chores, refining pills, studying the Green Wood Fire Guidance Technique, patrolling the Spirit Field Outer Perimeter, sleeping.

Until one day, while he was observing the Yang Shu, he suddenly remembered something.

If he remembered correctly, at the Loose Cultivator market, he seemed to have successfully bid on a Four Seasons Fruit Tree sapling.

Thinking of this, Xu Changqing hurriedly moved it out from the Lightly Vitality Gourd, placing it in his hand to examine carefully.

The entire Four Seasons Fruit Tree sapling was roughly the length of an adult's arm.

The trunk surface had natural four-colored patterns, corresponding respectively to spring's blue-green, summer's crimson, autumn's golden yellow, winter's snow white, as if condensing the four seasons into one body.

The branches and leaves grew in an extremely unique way.

In spring the leaves were semi-translucent tender green.

In summer the leaves turned a rich deep green.

In autumn the leaves all turned golden yellow.

In winter the leaves condensed into silver-white ice crystals.

Different seasons produced different fruits, each fruit having certain special effects.

It belonged to the category of fairly rare but not highly demanded spiritual plants.

Xu Changqing's gaze swept across, searching for a planting position.

Although this thing could be planted in the Spirit Field, its nutrient absorption ability was too strong; any spiritual plant within five meters couldn't compete with it.

Therefore, the best method was to choose an empty space, as far from the Spirit Field as possible.

Not long after, his eyes brightened.

When he previously tested the Wood Spirit Return Nest Ring, it happened to blast out a pit.

The surrounding rubble and weeds were all turned to fine powder in the explosion.

It happened to be usable for planting the Four Seasons Fruit Tree.

Therefore, Xu Changqing immediately walked over.

Sure enough the pit was still there, and he could even see a few lumps of dog shit inside.

Looks like Wangwang had been using this place as its spot to take a shit.

But this didn't matter; anyway it would be absorbed by the Four Seasons Fruit Tree.

Not long after, he put the sapling in, then transferred a batch of fresh black soil from the fifth mu of the Spirit Field on the other side.

After burying it, he irrigated it with Spirit Spring water.

Everything settled, he immediately summoned the Companion Green Lotus and began pulling up seedlings to help them grow.

For other Spirit Farmers, cultivating a spiritual plant consumes a large amount of time and energy.

But Xu Changqing lacked nothing, and could even accelerate the spiritual plant's growth speed.

Sure enough, a few minutes ago it was still a small sapling.

But as time passed, especially under the nourishment of a large amount of Wood Spirit Power.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, it grew bit by bit.

Because it was currently summer, the patterns on its body turned crimson.

Like burning fierce flames.

But the leaves were deep green, filled with flourishing vitality.

First time cultivating, it went from a small sapling to a man-height small tree.

At this speed, I'm afraid it won't take more than a few days to flower and bear fruit.

And the fruit grown in summer is called "Fire Flame Fruit".

Not only can it enhance the consumer's Fire Spirit Power, it can also be used as Extreme Yang Medicinal Herb for refining pills.
