Active Quest : Become the head disciple of Huashan.

Quest Rewards : 200,000 combat experience points

Looking at the active quest which appeared on system notification, Lin Yi was shocked.

In the game of Great Pugilistic World, quests were divided into two categories.

The first one was called passive quests. These kind of quests wouldn't be shown directly. Once the player finished the requirements, the rewards would be given out directly. Also, rewards from these kind of quests were extremely small. Players called these kind of quests as achievement quests. Only by achieving something to a certain degree, you would be rewarded. The previous action of annihilating Black Wind Stockade was an achievement, capable of influencing pugilistic world slightly.

The second one was known as active quests. These kind of quests were given by system, extremely rarely seen. Lin Yi who had grown from an ordinary player to God-ranked player, where he had spent decades of time in game, had only happened upon a few active quests. These kind of quests were difficult to complete, but once they were completed, they would result in rich combat experience rewards. There were a lot of players who had completed active quest and rose in reputation. They changed from being unknown players to experts whose reputation spread widely.

Two hundred thousand combat experience points!

Lin Yi almost drooled. If he were to have two hundred thousand combat experience points now, he would be able to upgrade a skill to perfection stage, his basic attributes would also reach dozens of points!

He was feeling delightedly. He just thought of competing for the position the head disciple, completing the wish of tens of thousands of player, and the system prompted him right away. Seems like the position of head disciple would surely become his!

Regardless of the wish of tens of thousands of player, just this two hundred combat experience points was enough reason for Lin Yi to take down the position of head disciple!

However the position of head disciple could not be obtained that easily. One had to go through various tests beforehand. The most important thing for him now was, with the fastest speed, to increase his strength, enter the field of vision of the higher-ups in Huashan, become one of the core disciple and learn Huashan's martial arts of higher grade!

With regards to Violet Mist Divine Skill and Nine Swordplays of Dugu, these two masterpieces, Lin Yi couldn't help but be greedy.

Everything must be prepared and planned beforehand!

Settling down his heart, he bade Lin Zhihu farewell.

"Yi'er, since you are at Huashan now, learn martial arts well. Uncle is very optimistic towards you! After Uncle go back, I hope I can hear the news that you moved up to upper courtyard or became a core disciple!" Lin Zhihu stared at the youth in front of him with mixed feelings. He had thousands of words but didn't know how to express them. In the end, he could only say what the majority of parents present had said.

After coming back from Black Wind Stockade, Lin Zhihu had a feeling that this youth in front of him would surely become someone extraordinary in the future!

"Uncle Hu, just rest assured. I will learn martial arts well here in Huashan and definitely won't let you down! As for Father and Mother at home, I will have to trouble you then." Lin Yi waved his hand, shouted facing the back of Lin Zhihu.

"Leave the matters at home to me!" Lin Zhihu's voice came from far away, mounted on his horse, his silhouette gradually got further till it couldn't be seen anymore.

Lin Yi rubbed his slightly red, swelled eyes, settled down his mood, and walked into the gate of Huashan. Endless sound of parting between new recruits and their parents didn't seem to faze him. He gazed towards the peak of Mt.Hua with a look of filled with fighting spirit.

"I believe, in the near future, I will also become a member of those on the peak of Mt.Hua."

.

The lower courtyard was located at the foot of Mt.Hua. The dense buildings here were the dormitory of lower courtyard's disciples. To most of the disciples of lower courtyard, their memories they had towards Huashan probably would be this place.

Slightly higher than these groups of buildings, near the middle part of Mt.Hua, was a group of independent courtyards, totalling two hundred of them.

At the lower half parts consisted one hundred independent courtyards, which were specially prepared for new recruits. The remaining one hundred which were located on the upper half parts where one could see the entire lower courtyard, were prepared for disciples on their second, third, and fourth years.

These one hundred independent courtyards could only be housed by the top one hundred disciples of lower courtyard!

Everyone could challenged those who housed the independent courtyard. If the challenger won, then they would be able to move into there!

Those who could keep their independent courtyard for a long time were few and far between. Each of them far outshone the other disciples of lower courtyard!

To obtain the eligibilty to own an independent courtyard, the competition was extremely fierce!

This was deliberately set by Huashan in order to let these disciples of lower courtyard to practise diligently under competitive atmposhere.

Usually, those who were able to enter top one hundred ranks could be called as quasi-upper courtyard disciples.

Only by entering the ranks of top one hundred, one could garner everyone's attention and enter the field of vision of the higher-ups of Huashan.

Thinking at the information flowed out from his memories, Lin Yi was sitting inside his dormitory, pondering on how to enter the field of vision of the higher-ups of Huashan.

Undoubtedly, competing for the courtyards for top one hundred rankers was something he must do.

As for how to compete for it, Lin Yi was still pondering.

"Senior Brother Lin Yi, today it is our turn to be imparted martial arts. Let's go quickly!" The source of the voice belonged to Jiang Xiaoyu.

The current dormitory of Lin Yi was a thatched hut, moreover, it was a thatched hut with two people living inside!

In order to produce competitive atmposhere, the higher-ups of Huashan were really shameless to the extreme. Making two people living inside a thatched hut would undoubtedly make anyone want to move into independent courtyards. Not to mention, there were servants who were in charge of chores and maids to wait upon you in independent courtyards.

Jiang Xiaoyu had talked endless time on how much he yearned to move into independent courtyard in Lin Yi's ears.

He didn't harbor any ideas towards the independent courtyards for top one hundred rankers, however he was full of ideas towards the independent courtyards for top one hundred new disciples. He always wished he could learn martial arts, practise it well and move to independent courtyard.

Thus, when it was time to impart martial arts, he jumped up excitedly.

He pulled up Lin Yi hurriedly and ran towards the training field.

It was already crowded with people at the training field. They encircled the instructors who was responsible to impart martial arts. All of them were excited, looking at the instructors with deep, red eyes, seeming as if wanted to swallow down the instructors.

Somehow, the instructors didn't find this strange as if used to this kind of gaze.

Each time new disciples enrolled, which of them weren't like this?

To all boys and girls, martial arts had a fatal attraction!

Riches, wealths, and whatnots, they were unreliable in this world!

Only martial arts was the most important thing here!

Thousands of young boys and girls encircled the instructors, with the youngest around seven or eight years old and the oldest around seventeen or eighteen. They were all looking at the instructors eagerly to the point of almost drooled.

"Since more or less have attended, I shall begin impart you martial arts!" The instructor saw no one came after the Lin Yi duo, nodded slightly and roared.

With a wave of hand, those young boys and girls retreated few steps back, leaving an open space in the middle and sat down in cross-legged position neatly.

Everything proceeded in order as if it was rehearsed before.

Yet Lin Yi knew, this was the first time for them to gather and look together. Being the first time yet orderly, it showed just how much they dreamt of becoming heroes and heroines, how much passion they had towards martial arts.

"We, Huashan, place sword arts at the foremost! With profound sword arts, renowned throughout the pugilistic world! It is also the reason why we, Huashan, along with Songshan, Taishan, Southern Hengshan, and Northern Hengshan, the Five Sacred Mountains, are known as Five Mountain Sword Sects Alliance!"

"To learn sword arts, you must learn Huashan Swordplay! Huashan Swordplay is our introductory sword arts. The essences of Huashan were all within Huashan Swordplay! Huashan Swordplay is the foundation of every Huashan's sword arts. Almost all of our sophisticated sword arts were born from Huashan Swordplay. Therefore, if you want to learn more profound sword arts, then you need to practise Huashan Swordplay well, as to lay solid foundation!"

"Huashan Swordplay consists of eleven stances: White Clouds Emerge, Phoenix in Harmony, Inverted Gentry, All-encompassing White Rainbow, Ashened Pine Welcome Its Guests, Flight of Golden Geese, Descend of Edgeless Wood, Concealed Lush Mountain, Ancient Cyper Woodlands, Exceptional Singular, Abundant Wealth"

"Having both offensive and defensive simultaneously, a renowned profound sword arts in pugilistic world. A silver grade martial arts! Compared to superficial sword arts in pugilistic world, it is far stronger! This is the foundation of Huashan, the most basic sword art. Even out at pugilistic world, it is a rarely seen profound arts!"

"Wow!"

The young boys and girls suddenly went into an uproar. Their eyes shone brightly. Their drools flowed out straightly. All of them were the children of the most basic-level echelons of Huashan in various Huashan's branch divisions so there were clear about grades of martial arts in pugilistic world. In pugilistic world, martial arts of bronze grade were already hard to obtain. Those who owned martial arts of bronze grade were capable of making a name for themselves. As for martial arts of silver grade, it was something one could only hope for yet can't seek for!

Yet the most basic Huashan Swordplay was of silver grade!

What a generous hand!

The title of one of the Five Mountain Sword Sects Alliance was indeed well-deserved!

"Senior Brother Lin Yi, did you hear it? Silver grade, a sword arts of silver grade! We really made it rich this time!" Jiang Xiaoyu tugged at Lin Yi's sleeves, clamored excitedly, with drools flowing out of his mouth.

Lin Yi smiled faintly. He didn't have much of a mood swing. These facts were something he had known earlier, or else he wouldn't try to join a major faction by all means.

Moreover, he understood the value of martial arts of higher grade.

Reaching initial stage of different grades would result in different effect. Martial arts of iron grade would give +3 points, while bronze grade would give +4.5 points. As for silver grade, it would give +6 points!

Higher stages of mastery would produce larger gap!

Crushed to death by a difference of one grade in martial arts, wasn't an exaggeration.

And this was just the difference in basic attributes. Not to mention, martial arts of higher grade would have more profound usage.

"Now I will demonstrate it once, remember it well and practise it well after you go back!" The instructor swept across the suprised and excited looks of the new disciples in satisfaction, then said plainly.

The sword moved out of its sheath!

White Clouds Emerge - Water flowed down unintentionally, white clouds emerge unconsciously. Squat down and halt, slash your sword horizontally.

Phoenix in Harmony - A splendor reaching ninety percent, phoenix made its appearance. Attack lower parts by feet, fall down to ground and rip one's abdomen.

Inverted Gentry - When the rain ceased, hang the gentry upside-down. Halt and twist your body, let your sword slash down afterwards.

All-encompassing White Rainbow - Rainbow covered the sky, cold wind billowed. Let sword ride on the wind, strike the enemy in the air.

.

Abundant Wealth!

The sword returned to its sheath!

"Have you all remembered it? Go back and practise diligently. If there's something you don't understand, come and find me tomorrow." Grasping the sword, the instructor's appearance was exceptional.

Followed up next were the instructors of Huashan's Fist Arts and Huashan's Arts of Lightness who imparted the martial arts in turns.
