What an immense heart! What kind of divine Senior Brother is this? He really... I'm literally crying!

Disciple A: "Senior Brother, rest assured, we definitely won't let you down!"

Disciple B: "Senior Brother, don't say that! Nothing will happen to you! I, Hao Xiongdi, swear it. From now on, if anyone says a single bad word about Senior Brother Wang Xiu, I'll fight them to the bitter end and show no mercy!"

Disciple C: "Me too! I'll protect the best Senior Brother Wang Xiu!"

Disciple D: "Protect the best Senior Brother Wang Xiu!"

Disciple E: "Protect the best Senior Brother Wang Xiu!"

Disciple F: "..."

...

"Waaah—"

With reddened eyes, Liu Shi'er cried her eyes out as she looked at Wang Xiu. "Senior Brother, you are too great, too kind, too selfless..."

The other disciples also had expressions full of guilt. "We're sorry, Senior Brother Wang Xiu... We've said many bad things about you behind your back!"

"We misunderstood you, Senior Brother. We were blind. You are a good person, the best of people!"

SLAP!

An earnest male cultivator, his face flushed with shame, slapped himself. "I'm sorry, Senior Brother! I deserve to die!"

Wang Xiu: "..."

He raised his hand to stop them and said softly, "Let bygones be bygones. The most important thing you can do right now is take advantage of the fact that no one else is here and release more human souls. Otherwise, once more of our fellow disciples rush in, you'll have a lot more competition!"

Upon hearing this, the group snapped back to reality.

Although there were many human souls in this blessed land, the disciples of the Sanqing Immortal Sect were also numerous. There were two to three thousand people in the group chat alone. If the souls were divided among them all, the merit each person could gain was actually quite limited. If one's skills were unpracticed, and their hands or mouths were a little slow, they would get even less.

Thinking of this, without another word, they scattered in all directions, dashing toward the wandering human souls nearby.

"Don't block me! I'm going to release a hundred! I can't fail Senior Brother Wang Xiu's trust!"

[Ding!]

[Nearby boasting has been detected. Congratulations to the Host for receiving Mana +6!]

"A hundred? Pathetic! I'm going to release a thousand! Everyone, get out of my way!"

[Ding!]

[Nearby boasting has been detected. Congratulations to the Host for receiving Mana +23!]

"..."

...

Wang Xiu had guessed correctly. The moment he officially announced that the human souls in the blessed land were available to all borrowers, everyone went crazy—whether they were in the Immortal Sect or out on a mission.

「By a certain lakeside.」

Wang Xiaoming, a disciple of the House Sect, was walking hand in hand with a girl. For a man who had been single since birth, this was the first time in his life he had held a girl's hand.

A large part of the reason he had joined the House Sect in the first place was to end his single life. The result? The male-to-female ratio among the disciples of the House Sect was simply pathetic. The female disciples from other sects were also highly resistant to the male cultivators from the House Sect. As for the female rogue cultivators outside the Immortal Sect, they looked down on him for his low Cultivation Level, lack of money, and lack of status. This had troubled him deeply for quite some time.

Unexpectedly, everything changed after he borrowed two thousand Spirit Stones from the Divination Sect. For the first time, he felt that pursuing a girl was such an easy thing to do.

Although this girl isn't an Immortal Sect disciple or from some distinguished family, she's quite attractive... I'm not picky!

After spending several hundred Spirit Stones to wine and dine her, he had successfully held her hand. If all went well, tonight he might even achieve the first step of the House Sect's cultivation! The very thought excited him!

The lakeside was very quiet.

The girl suddenly lowered her head with a shy blush and said, "Xiaoming, what should we... get up to later?"

Wang Xiaoming was about to respond when he noticed his Communication Token vibrating intensely, buzzing like a freaking Thunder Wand. He couldn't help but pull it out for a look.

The moment he saw it, he froze and blurted out, "Damn it!"

The girl's face flushed an even deeper shade of red. "Here? That's not very appropriate..."

Though her words said one thing, she hugged Wang Xiaoming's arm even closer.

However, the next moment, Wang Xiaoming simply flung his arm out, tossing her into the lake. Then, without a second thought, he soared into the air and flew away.

Women? In the face of merit, what are they worth?

...

「In a certain mountain forest.」

A bare-chested disciple of the Sanqing Physical Sect faced off against a Tiger Demon, his eyes burning with the will to fight. "Demon, I require your assistance in my cultivation! If you can fight me for three days and three nights, I will consider sparing your life!"

The Tiger Demon roared furiously, "Consider my ass! Human, don't you dare humiliate me! A mere three days and nights is nothing! I can withstand five days and five nights! But you must let me go! And no hitting the head!"

The Physical Sect disciple smiled with satisfaction. He took a bottle of oily liquid from his Storage Ring and poured it over his bare torso. Instantly, his bronze skin seemed to grow even more robust as his vitality surged. This was a rather precious medicinal liquid that could temper the body and allow a physical cultivator's training to be twice as effective with half the effort.

Originally, he couldn't afford to use something like this. But now, he had money!

Just as he was about to make his move, the Communication Token at his waist began to vibrate violently. He picked it up and his pupils shrank. "Merit... vast amounts of merit! Holy shit!"

He swallowed hard. His vitality ignited. Leaping into the air, he threw a punch straight at the Tiger Demon's head.

BOOM!

The Tiger Demon's head exploded on impact, sending flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Afterward, the disciple grabbed his clothes from a nearby tree and took off running. "Damn it, you beasts, slow down! Leave some for me!"

In the forest, the Tiger Demon's corpse was not yet cold.

In its final moments, its mind was filled with question marks. What happened to our deal... you needed my help with your cultivation, right? Why the hell did you go for the kill right from the start? Liar! The Human Race is full of liars!
