Conversation filled the hall.

Zhou Han looked at the names on their heads and immediately knew their identities.

It turned out to be the nine elders of the Sword God Hall.

No wonder all of them had such powerful auras.

Good lord, this was a big scene. It had alarmed so many people at once.

On the side, Wan Yuhe’s expression darkened when she heard everyone praising Zhou Han.

Previously, when she was the strongest prodigy, she had never seen these elders praise her like this.

“Yo! Zhou Han has completed his awakening!”

Soon, an elder saw Zhou Han and hurriedly said.

“Zhou Han, when are you coming to my house? Let’s discuss sword techniques with my daughter!”

“Zhou Han! Are you married? I have a granddaughter…”

“You’re not bad. From now on, all ten of my granddaughters will follow you.”

Zhou Han: “…”

‘Ten? That’s harsh!’

Who said that the higher-ups of the Sword God Hall were terrifying?!

This was completely a rumor!

Look how kind these old fellows are now.

It was either for their daughters or their granddaughters.

However, these old fellows were a little stingy. Couldn’t they be more practical?

They could just give him any sword or pill!

‘What’s the point of pushing your daughters or granddaughters to me?’

“Alright, stop talking! Get to the point!”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Elder Lin stopped them in time.

“Elder Lin, what’s going on?”

Zhou Han also asked the question in his mind. He saw that Wan Yuhe was also present.

It had to be something.

“It’s like this. The once-every-three-years Divine Trials is about to begin! This is a grand event on the Godfiend Continent. Not only can we obtain generous rewards, but it’s also proof of glory and strength!”

“That’s why I want your opinion! I hope you can represent the Sword God Hall in this event!”

Elder Lin stroked his white beard and smiled.

‘Oh? There’s a generous reward?’

Zhou Han immediately said righteously, “Elders, don’t worry. As a member of the Sword God Hall, I naturally have to represent the Sword God Hall.”

“When do we leave?”

“Good. I knew you wouldn’t let us down! But it’s a month before it opens. It’s still early.”

As expected, when they heard Zhou Han’s words, the elders revealed gratification in their eyes.

People were not what they used to be. Children as loyal as this were rare.

“In a month? What are we doing now?”

Zhou Han’s expression darkened. There was still a month.

‘What are you talking about so early? It was all for nothing.’

“This is the daughter of the Sword Emperor, Wan Yuhe. You’ve interacted with her before.”

Elder Lin pointed at Wan Yuhe and continued, “She’s also participating in the Divine Trials. I want to arrange for you to train together next.”

“You young people! You have a common topic. Everyone improves on each other.”

Zhou Han was a little unwilling. They wanted him to take care of this girl!

He could bring a familiar girl, but this girl was not very familiar.

Moreover, Zhou Han did not want to bring her along.

“Elder, I’m afraid she’ll affect my progress!”

What Zhou Han meant was that he was afraid that they would cause a conflict and ruin things.

After all, this woman had such a fiery temper. Zhou Han did not want to provoke her anymore.

“What…”

“Don’t worry, the Sword Emperor will get her an Emperor-grade weapon when the time comes. I promise not to drag you down.”

Elder Lin explained. He had clearly misunderstood Zhou Han.

He thought that the other party despised Wan Yuhe for being weak.

It was indeed normal for the Number One Prodigy to be so arrogant.

Elder Lin was about to say something when Wan Yuhe’s shy voice sounded.

“Zhou Han, don’t look down on me!”

“Don’t think you can humiliate me like this just because you defeated me yesterday!”

At this moment, she was trembling with anger. This was the first time she had been despised.

No matter what, she was a favored daughter of the heavens.

How could she take this lying down?

She was already a little resistant to her mother’s arrangements and did not want to train with Zhou Han.

Now that this happened, she had to team up with Zhou Han.

She had to show her true strength and ruthlessly respond to Zhou Han’s mockery.

“I’m really not looking down on you!”

Zhou Han said gloomily in his mind.

It was all his fault for saying something ambiguous and causing a misunderstanding.

It seemed that he still had to cultivate the art of speech.

However, at this point, Zhou Han did not want to explain.

‘Then just reject her!’

Just as Zhou Han was about to say it, a system notification sounded.

[You have a new sect mission: Trial of Beauty. Do you accept?]

“Accepted!”

Zhou Han agreed habitually.

After agreeing, Zhou Han reacted.

This time, a sect mission appeared.

As for what was different, he wasn’t sure.

Soon, the description of the mission appeared on the interface.

[Trial of Beauty]

[Description: Fight alongside Wan Yuhe and collect enough materials.]

[Progress: Melilot (0/100), Blood Aura Stone (0/50), Heart of the Fire Demon (0/1)]

[Location: Fire Spirit Islands (Coordinates: …)]

[Time Limit: 3 days]

[Reward: Soul Crystals, experience points, and 100 sect contribution points.]

He saw that there were soul crystals and experience points as a reward.

There were also sect contribution points but he did not know what they were for.

He was prepared to ask Elder Lin later.

“The reward is good. I accept!”

In that case, he would show her mercy!

Who asked me, Zhou Han, to be so easygoing?

“Ahem! Since the elder has said so, I naturally have to give him face!”

“After all, she’s also a member of the Sword God Hall. As the Number One Prodigy, I have the obligation to help. I’m duty-bound to contribute to the Sword God Hall!”

Zhou Han said with a smile.

“Tsk!”

When Wan Yuhe saw Zhou Han’s smug face, she was furious and snorted in her heart.

It was as if she was begging him for affection.

“Yes, that’s good!”

Elder Lin nodded in satisfaction. If Zhou Han was unwilling, he would not force him.

Then he continued.

“Don’t worry, the Sword God Hall has strict rules. The rewards and punishments are clear. I won’t let you work for nothing.”

“Oh? What exactly is the process?”

Zhou Han was interested and quickly asked.

“Do you see this Swordsman badge?”

Elder Lin took out a badge from his interspatial ring and handed it to Zhou Han.

The badge was translucent in color, with a small sword carved in the middle. It was lifelike.

There was still sword aura flowing on it, but it was very weak.

“As long as you join the Sword God Hall, everyone will have their own exclusive badge.”

After seeing Zhou Han take the badge, Elder Lin continued to explain.

“After successfully activating the badge, you can see all the missions under your current authority.”

As long as the mission was completed within a limited time, one could obtain varying amounts of contribution points.

Contribution points can be exchanged for various items in the sect’s mall.”

“Are there any authority restrictions?”

Zhou Han acutely noticed this word.

“Of course, you have to set up authority. After all, you can’t count on some sword cultivators who have just joined the Sword God Hall to be loyal to the Sword God Hall from the beginning!”

“If there are spies from other forces or traitors like the Evil Swordsman, wouldn’t the Sword God Hall suffer a loss?”

Another elder came over and explained with a smile.

He was Elder Ye, who was in charge of internal law enforcement.

“That’s true. Looks like I lack consideration. As expected, I’m not suitable to be part of the management team!”

“That’s why we set such a standard. We assess the rank of the badge by the total contribution points obtained.”

“The higher the level, the greater the authority to open it. You can activate your badge now.”

After hearing this, Zhou Han felt that this method was indeed good.

Although they could not completely eliminate the existence of some spies, they could at least eliminate 90% of them who had strange intentions.

Elder Lin only gave a simple introduction.

There was also a lot of content that could not be finished at once.

Therefore, he gestured for Zhou Han to activate the badge himself before checking and fumbling around.

This way, it would be easier to ask him if there was anything he didn’t understand.

According to Elder Lin’s method, he had to use the cultivation technique he had comprehended in the [Visualization Hall] to successfully activate it.

There was an identification mechanism inside the badge that could automatically identify him.

If it was another attribute of sword aura, it would automatically destroy itself.

This way, others would take advantage of the situation.

Zhou Han’s eyes narrowed as he injected a sword aura into it.

Soon, the badge emitted a hazy halo and immediately established a mysterious connection with Zhou Han.

[The Swordsman badge has been activated. Do you wish to check?]

With Zhou Han’s reminder, the badge was completely bound to him.

“Check!”
