"This is...!!!"

The elder shouted loudly after Zheng-Fu walked away. He wanted to say something to Zheng-Fu, but the young man was no longer there. The Abyssal Flake Ore that Zheng-Fu gave the elder would greatly help increase the elder's energy level in his cultivation. Because he had fire elemental energy, the fire elemental Abyssal Flake Ore was a perfect fit for him.

After Zheng-Fu entered the Cultivation Tower Manor, he found several doors lined up on the first floor. And there were mostly outer disciples who used the room on this floor. So, Zheng-Fu went up to the second floor. And when he reached the second floor, he was met with many outer disciples as well. Also, all the cultivation rooms were full. This led Zheng-Fu to consider skipping ahead to the fifth floor, assuming that there would be fewer people on that floor than on the other floors below.

On the fifth floor of Cultivation Tower Manor...

Bang!!!

Argh!!!

"Didn't I tell you, Dian-Gui? If you want to cultivate on this floor, you'll have to pay us a protection fee. Otherwise, what you've to encounter is this!"

As Zheng-Fu reached the fifth floor, he heard people quarreling. And on the floor, a young man was lying with a wound at the corner of his mouth from being punched by a big young man who was yelling at him just now. And that young man lying on the floor was the one who advised Zheng-Fu before he entered the tower.

"What are you looking at, handsome boy? This is none of your business! Or do you want this to be about you too!"

When the big man saw Zheng-Fu who had just arrived on the fifth floor and felt unfamiliar with his face, he did not hesitate to speak arrogantly and threaten Zheng-Fu. That made Dian-Gui turn around and see who the next victim was.

"Comrade!"

Huh?

"Is that your comrade, Dian-Gui? Ha ha! Very well, then I can have him help you pay for your protection fee. Then you can use the cultivation room on the fifth floor." When the big man heard Dian-Gui call Zheng-Fu 'comrade', suddenly an evil smile crossed his face. For he thought that Zheng-Fu would definitely be as weak as Dian-Gui.

"No! He's not my comrade. I only met him just now, and he's just a new disciple. You're an inner disciple, bullying a new disciple like this is..."

Stomp!!!

Thud!!!

Argh!!!

"Is what? I'm happy to do it. What are you going to do to me? Shut your mouth, if you don't want to go back to bed and heal for a long time!" Before Dian-Gui could finish speaking, the big man's big foot stomped at his stomach, causing Dian-Gui to cough up blood.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

"We're disciples of the same sect. Why would you bully someone weaker?" At that moment, Zheng-Fu came to a stop in front of the big man and spoke with a cold and slightly dissatisfied expression.

"Disciples from the same sect, and so what? Stronger people have the right to do anything. A new disciple like you, don't even think about instructing me. You wet-eared..."

Pow!!!

Thud!!!

Whoosh!!!

Booooooom!!!

But before the big man could finish his words, he was lightly nudged by Zheng-Fu's fist and floated, colliding with the wall, fainting as he spat out blood. This was because his energy level was only at the intermediate Heavenly Foundation Building stage, no way he could resist Zheng-Fu's energy at the Heavenly Star stage.

Ah!

This incident caused Dian-Gui to gasp. He did not expect Zheng-Fu to be so talented. At first, he thought that Zheng-Fu was a new disciple, but now he thought that Zheng-Fu had to be a main disciple or the top-rank inner disciple. However, what he did not understand was why Zheng-Fu did not know any information about the Cultivation Tower.

"Are you all right, Comrade?" Zheng-Fu turned to ask the young man with a smiley face. He seemed friendly and approachable, not arrogant like typical high-level disciples.

Umm!

"I'm fine. Thank you so much, Comrade. But you're not a new disciple, so why didn't you know the rules for entering the Cultivation Tower?" The young man asked a question that puzzled him.

"It's right as you said. I'm not a new disciple, but I've only been a sect disciple for half a year. Besides, I rarely stay inside the academy, so I don't know how to access this tower. But why did you have an issue with that man? Or did you take his cultivation room?" Zheng-Fu did not hide the fact that he had been in the academy for more than half a year, but he did not tell the whole thing.

Ah!

"Actually, I didn't take his cultivation room. It was just that he was a member of the forces under the control of a main disciple. And they occupy every room on the fifth floor. If anyone wanted to enter to use these cultivation rooms, they had to pay a fee. But I didn't have enough scores, so he beat me as you saw. Just now, you hurt him, he would definitely go back to tell the main disciple who was the leader of his forces. I think you should get out of here before…"

"Thanks for the advice! But I don't care who is the leader of that man. I'm here to cultivate and this is a common property, not belonging to anyone in particular!" Zheng-Fu interrupted before the young man could finish speaking. He did not really care how big the problem would be. Because right now he could easily fight the sixth or seventh-level Heavenly Star stage cultivators. As for the eighth and ninth levels might be a bit heavy. So he was not afraid of that main disciple.

"Umm! However, you should be careful. Because they also have powerful people and forces backing them up. If they really thought of taking action, you might not survive!" When the young man saw that Zheng-Fu seemed indifferent to this matter, he did not say much, only warned Zheng-Fu once more.

"Thank you very much. By the way, are you still alright? Can you advise me what is the difference between each floor of the Cultivation Tower?" Zheng-Fu saw that the young man should be fine, but he asked first to make sure that the young man still had the strength to guide him on the details of each floor.

"I'm still fine! That kind of beating is not enough to kill or seriously hurt me. I've been beaten harder than this. Well! If you really need advice, I'll tell you," the young man answered and nodded lightly before he stood up and dusted off his clothes. He then walked up to Zheng-Fu and began to explain the differences between each floor.

Ten minutes passed...

"As I said, most inner disciples use the cultivation rooms from the fourth to the sixth floor. The main disciples use the rooms from the seventh floor to the ninth floor. As for the tenth floor and beyond, only seed disciples and elders can access them. Because the price is too high!"

The young man spent about ten minutes explaining the differences between each floor to Zheng-Fu before he concluded at the end because he was afraid that Zheng-Fu could not remember them.

"Thank you very much, Comrade. All right! Take out your identification badge, I'll repay you for all your advice!" Zheng-Fu thanked the young man and intended to give him his mission scores in return.

"No need! You've done enough for me already. I can't…"

"If you think that I'm your comrade, take it out," Zheng-Fu still insisted on giving it.

Ah!

The young man hesitated for a moment, but he finally took out his identification badge and reached forward to receive the scores from Zheng-Fu.

Flop!

Wooooooosh!!!

"Hopefully these scores will save you from running into trouble again!" When Zheng-Fu finished transferring the scores to Dian-Gui, he immediately walked up to the next floor of the Cultivation Tower without waiting for the young man to speak or show any expression.

Ah!

Huh?

"These scores are…!" And when the young man checked the scores that Zheng-Fu gave him, he was shocked and exclaimed in disbelief.

"Twenty thousand mission scores? Who exactly is he? Oh! Thank you! Thank you very much for the scores you gave me. I won't have to suffer from being extorted like that any longer! And someday I'll pay you back!" The young man was very grateful to Zheng-Fu. All these scores would help him improve greatly. And he would be released from this oppression.

As for Zheng-Fu, he had now reached the ninth floor of the Cultivation Tower. There were very few inner disciples on this floor. Most of the people who could reach this floor were main disciples. Because the exchange rates for using the room were very high, up to a thousand mission scores per hour. But the result was also great compared to the lost scores.

"I should test this floor first. If the results aren't so good, I'll go up to the higher floors!" Zheng-Fu decided. He was curious about what it would be like to enter the cultivation room. And would the energy inside be dense?

Hmm!

"That room should be fine. I like the number nine, it's a good number!" Having made up his mind, Zheng-Fu immediately started looking for the cultivation room. He glanced at room number nine which was still empty and immediately chose it.

Thump!!! Thump!!! Thump!!!

"Just put my identification badge on this stone pedestal, right? If so…"

"Stop right now!"

But before Zheng-Fu could place his identification badge on the stone pedestal in front of the room, a young man shouted for him to stop before walking towards him.

"This room is my regular room! No one can use it!" This young man had an arrogant face and a contemptuous gaze. He wore the main disciple's robe and had a tiger and cloud badge attached to his collar.

Zheng-Fu recognized that this badge belonged to the Heavenly Floating Cloud Tiger Clan.

"Your room!? Where's your name? I don't see your name written down anywhere. Besides, every disciple has access to every cultivation room depending on who came first. And today you come later than me, therefore, I have the right to use it before you!" Zheng-Fu disliked this clan, so he ignored this young man's words. And he did not care what would happen when he took the Cultivation Room. So, immediately, he placed his identification badge on the stone pedestal in front of the room.

Flop!

"See you after I finish cultivating!"

"You!!!"
