Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly drew everyone's attention.

Zhao Ziyue asked curiously, "How do you know?"

Hu Bugui pointed at the desk: "Besides the Monster Hunting Plan, there's also a very detailed reward list on it."

Xu Zhangqing stepped closer to look and discovered it really was a reward list.

Judging by the look of it, Zhao Qianyun is quite fond of planning before acting.

First Place

Base Reward: Water Spirit Source Crystal

Additional Reward: 50,000 Middle-grade Spirit Stones + Hundred-Year Fishing Rights to Juling Abyss + Polang Boat personally gifted by the City Lord

Second Place

Base Reward: 30,000 Middle-grade Spirit Stones + 3 Hundred-Year Xuan Water Beast Inner Cores

Additional Reward: Gengjin Po, Living Wood Heart, Lihuo Pearl, Xirang Lump, Xuanbing Jade Marrow — choose one of five Spiritual Treasures

Third Place

Base Reward: 20,000 Middle-grade Spirit Stones + 10 Xuanjing Dragon Carp Scale Fragments

Additional Reward: 5-pattern Spirit Weapon Armor-Piercing Awl, 5-pattern Spirit Weapon Growth Staff, 5-pattern Spirit Weapon Blazing Flame Sword, 5-pattern Spirit Weapon Mountain-Suppressing Shield, 5-pattern Spirit Weapon Ice Spike — choose one of five 5-pattern Spirit Weapons

Fourth Place

Fifth to Tenth Place

Additional Reward: 10 catties of Refined Iron Sand, 20 Ling Wood Branches, 5 packs of Fire-Drawing Velvet, 30 catties of Clay Lumps, 15 Water Algae Crystals — choose one of five High-grade Materials

As for those after tenth place, there are no rewards at all, only participation matters.

Chu Qiu said thoughtfully: "Although the rewards can't compare to Our Immortal Sect, this is already the limit of what the City Lord's Mansion, the Five Great Families, and even the cooperation partners can put forth."

Li Sancai and the others nodded: "Indeed."

【27】 Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow: "Even the Water Spirit Source Crystal is being offered; this shows that the Hundred-Year Scale Qianfan Zhengdu Conference will have exceptionally fierce competition."

Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow: "Even bringing out the Water Spirit Source Crystal is enough to show that the Qianfan Zhengdu Conference of Hundred Years scale will be exceptionally fierce competition."

Moreover, these rewards — not to mention Loose Cultivators, even Immortal Sect Disciples would be tempted.

Barring surprises, the number of participants will absolutely break past records.

Zhao Ziyue asked curiously: "What does this Juling Abyss fishing rights mean?"

Chu Qiu explained: "The Juling Abyss is near the Sea Bottom Dragon Vein; the fish there, and the treasures at the bottom of the water, are exceptionally abundant.

This hundred-year fishing right is enough to let a mere Loose Cultivator get rich quick.

Let a small cultivation clan grow into a major clan in a short time.

Let a small cultivation sect have no resource worries for a hundred years."

"Hiss!"

Zhao Ziyue sucked in a cold breath upon hearing this.

Afterward, his gaze became burning hot.

If I got first place, wouldn't I have no fishing worries for a hundred years?

Hu Bugui saw through him at a glance and immediately mocked: "Old Zhao, wake up, how can you start daydreaming in broad daylight?"

Zhao Ziyue said seriously: "I think everyone should give it a try; even if we don't get first place, placing in the top ten still has rewards, at least this trip won't be in vain."

At this moment, many people shifted their gazes to Xu Zhangqing.

Whether to participate or not still depends on this person.

After all, there are seven of them now, but only... one boat.

Xu Zhangqing smiled upon seeing this: "We can participate, but the problem is, we can't have our seven Immortal Sect Disciples group together and then bully those Loose Cultivators, small cultivation clans, and small sect members, right?"

In terms of foundation, Cultivation Method strength, Spirit Tool power, etc., Immortal Sect Disciples are a dimensionality reduction strike against these people; they fundamentally aren't opponents.

At this time, a voice came from outside: "According to the rules, a boat can have at most two people."

Chu Qiu recognized the voice immediately and introduced: "Zhao Qianyun has arrived."

Soon, Zhao Qianyun stood at the gate.

A moon-white brocade robe set off his complexion like jade; the hem was embroidered with silver threads outlining a phantom Xuanjiao that seemed to swim on the fabric as he moved.

A jade crown bound his hair, a faint water-pattern mark at his brow adding a touch of refined elegance to his already handsome features.

His pupils were an extremely pale glazed color, unlike the gentle warmth of a normal Water Spirit Root; the color held a trace of ice-stalactite-like cold sharpness.

Though his exact age couldn't be discerned, he was estimated to be about the same as Chu Qiu.

That is, around thirty to forty years old.

For a Cultivator, this counts as very young.

The overall impression he gave combined a Noble Family Child's dignity with not a trace of arrogance.

Xu Zhangqing looked into the other's eyes and thought secretly: "This person has a Mutated Water Spirit Root."

Chu Qiu stepped forward and teased: "Big shot, you finally deigned to show up?"

Zhao Qianyun's gaze swept over everyone, taking them all in, then he smiled lightly: "That's only because it's you, Brother Chu; if it were anyone else, even an Immortal Sect Disciple, I'd have left them cooling their heels."

Chu Qiu pursed his lips: "Let's just treat it as if what you said is true."

From behind came the voice of Steward Lin Wufeng: "Young Master, various Immortal Masters, the Saliva Jade Dew has been brewed!"

Zhao Qianyun took it in hand and said seriously: "You go down; I will personally host the various Immortal Masters."

"Yes, Young Master!" Lin Wufeng obeyed the order, turned, and left.

Zhao Qianyun held the teapot brewed with Saliva Jade Dew in his hand, entering his own room step by step: "Brother Chu, help me introduce these few beside you!"

Chu Qiu did not introduce them one by one in detail, merely stating their names: "Xu Zhangqing, Li Sancai, Hu Bugui, Zhao Ziyue, Li Xianglin, Han Su, all are Disciples of Dongting Immortal Sect."

And the reason for this was mainly that he did not recognize Li Xianglin and Han Su.

In order not to lose face for the Immortal Sect and their family, he could only introduce them like this, waiting to later give special recommendation to Xu Zhangqing.

Zhao Qianyun praised: "Worthy of being Immortal Sect Disciples, each and every one extraordinary in bearing."

Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing's expression was strange.

Nothing to praise about looks, so can only praise bearing, huh.

When he looked at Zhao Ziyue and Hu Bugui, he discovered these two were very happy, looking entirely like a "you're right" appearance.

Zhao Qianyun waved his hand: "Various Immortal Masters please sit, don't stand on ceremony here with me!"

Afterward, he took out thin-walled jade cups polished from Xuan Jiao vertebrae, pouring in the brewed Saliva Jade Dew.

Everyone had a cup, and after finishing could still have refills.

Xu Zhangqing took it in hand, stroking the tea cup on one side while looking at the tea water inside.

The tea water was an extremely pale cyan color, like melted spring snow seeped into grass leaf juice, clear enough to see the patterns at the cup bottom.

And it was not hot tea, but rather cool tea.

The tea fragrance was not strong, carrying a breath of clear cold pool water.

Upon entry first slightly cool, like holding a piece of early spring thin ice on the tongue tip, after it melted open, immediately a clear sweet taste surged out.

After drinking, a wisp of coolness plunged straight into the abdomen, but not long after a warmth rose up.

The Wood Spirit Power in the Qi Sea seemed to have obtained moisture, unusually active.

Body, Spirit, and every aspect all reached an unprecedented peak state.

Chu Qiu drank tea while saying: "This Thousand Sails Zhengdu Conference you're holding, regardless of scale or rewards, is simply unprecedented, even I am somewhat moved."

Zhao Qianyun's mouth corner twitched up, revealing a trace of complacency: "Not only did it attract you all, even the North Cloud Immortal Maiden of Yao Yue Immortal Sect,

even Longhu Immortal Sect's Zhao Wuji came!"
