(Just upon launch, I've already received so many messages from fellow readers—haha! I'm truly grateful to everyone!) Naturally, Han Li remembered every word. "Since you've collected all the items, let's go now and meet the disciples receiving the transmission of techniques!" After saying this, the senior master once again took Han Li and ascended on their vehicle. This time, their journey was much shorter, and they landed just beneath a mountain, at the foot of a large stone pavilion built against the mountain's slope. The stone plaque in front of the pavilion bore the three golden characters: "Hall of Technique Transmission." Nearby, a number of young disciples were bustling in and out, quite lively. The senior master said nothing as he stepped in first, and Han Li followed closely behind. Several disciples clearly recognized the senior master, bowing and greeting him continuously, to which he smiled and nodded in return. It was evident that his popularity among the people of Huangfeng Valley was truly impressive. Upon entering the stone pavilion, Han Li was unexpectedly struck by the fact that the rear section of the Training Hall extended deep into the mountain's core, creating a vast interior. Immediately upon entering, he found a row of stone doors aligned before him, through which his disciples were entering and exiting. Han Li had just intended to take a closer look when Wang Shishu pushed open the door of the third room on her right and walked in on her own, leaving Han Li somewhat hesitant about whether to follow. "Come in!" Wang Shishu did not make him wait long, reappearing at the doorway shortly afterward and inviting him to enter. The room was not crowded; there was only one young disciple in his thirties dressed in green robes, standing respectfully beside Wang Shishu. Upon seeing Han Li enter, he offered a warm, friendly smile. "This is Wu Feng, who is specifically in charge of the new disciples' cultivation techniques. Should you have any questions regarding your techniques, feel free to consult him. In terms of mastery of foundational techniques, Wu Feng ranks among the top ten among the younger generation!" Wang Shishu spoke with clear admiration for the young man. "Please let me learn from Master Wu in the future!" Han Li said respectfully. He was very aware that this man would be his master of cultivation for the foreseeable future, and he absolutely could not afford to be careless. "Hehe! Thank you, Uncle Han, but honestly, I only have a basic understanding of the lower-level cultivation techniques. I'd be happy to practice and learn together with Han Li!" Master Wu responded politely. "Wu, I'm quite familiar with your cultivation skills—there's no need for you to be so humble. As for Han Li's cultivation matters, it's up to you to guide and teach him. Right now, I'm merely introducing him to you and then I'll need to take him to other places to make further connections. So I won't be staying with you any longer." Master Wang was also quite direct. After saying this, he and Han Li left the room, being warmly escorted by Master Wu. In the following period, the senior master took care to guide Han Li to several other essential locations, introduced him to a number of assistant disciples, and shared with him some daily matters to attend to. Only then did he lead Han Li back to the stone pavilions where the gray-robed elder resided, allowing him to choose any stone room as his residence, and then returned to his own quarters, leaving Han Li alone. He suddenly chuckled and then retrieved the flight-based Qingye artifact from his storage bag. After infusing it with spiritual energy, he tossed it into the air and leapt onto it. At first, Han Li, unfamiliar with the device, flew awkwardly—swaying up and down, unsteady and uneven. But soon, he grew comfortable, effortlessly maneuvering like the Wang Shishe, gliding gracefully with his hands behind his back. Though the artifact was easy to handle and simple to operate, its speed was clearly not impressive, only slightly faster than that of a regular swift horse. This explained why every disciple in the valley had one. Although the Qingye artifact wasn't quite as refined, Han Li, being new to aerial travel, enjoyed playing with it enthusiastically for a while. "Ha ha!" With laughter filling the air, Han Li finally drove the artifact steadily toward a destination. Along the way, he passed by several other disciples who were also flying. Perhaps it was because Han Li's face was so unfamiliar, so the group of people all stared at him curiously. But when they realized he had only reached the ninth level of cultivation, they dismissed him with disdain and moved away. Han Li observed all their actions with a calm expression, yet a quiet chuckle stirred within him. It seemed these so-called cultivator disciples were no different from ordinary laypeople—equally self-serving and pretentious! As he was pondering this, he had already arrived at a large complex of buildings and came to rest before a grand hall bearing the sign "Baiji Hall," then stepped inside. A middle-aged attendant, who had just seen Han Li enter, was surprised and opened his mouth in query, "Han brother, how come you've returned so quickly? Where is Master Wang?" This was precisely the place where Master Wang had brought Han Li for a hurried visit earlier. The attendant had only just met Han Li, so his return to the same location came as a great surprise. "Master Yun, when I arrived here earlier, I heard this was where work assignments were distributed, is that correct?" Han Li did not immediately answer the query, but instead smiled and asked. "Indeed, that's right! Does Master Li wish to take on an assignment so soon? As a new disciple, according to regulations, he is expected to spend a month getting familiar with the inner workings of the monastery before formally receiving work duties—there's no need to rush!" The attendant expressed surprise. "Ah, no problem at all! I'd like to start doing something right away. Do you still have openings for gardening-related tasks?" Han Li smiled slightly. "That's not easy! Every disciple who comes to claim an assignment is assigned to a specific task and expected to perform it—no choice allowed. Only if one can demonstrate genuine expertise in a particular area will they receive special consideration!" The attendant said, clearly troubled. Upon hearing this, Han Li furrowed his brows—would it truly be necessary to go find Master Ye? "No problem. As for the cultivation-related positions, let this young disciple from Han pick whatever he wishes!" A voice familiar to Han suddenly came from behind, startling Han. He turned to see the elderly man named Ye standing there, smiling warmly at him. "Master Director, you've returned!" The middle-aged attendant immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing the elder. "Yes, I've returned," the elder replied, not quite certain. "Master Ye!" Han also promptly bowed in greeting. "Heh, Han's arrival is truly swift! I was just about to return here and instruct my subordinates to let the young disciple choose freely," Master Ye said, speaking with a cheerful tone, half-jokingly. "Thank you, Master Ye! I came here just to take a look—seeing if I could find a suitable assignment without needing to trouble you." Han seemed rather reserved. "Here, it's all up to me. There's nothing to worry about!" To the official, please gather all the tasks related to cultivation and let my junior, Han, select those he deems satisfactory! The elder waved his hand generously, indicating that the subordinate should proceed as instructed. The official named Yu was left speechless by this remark. After giving a deep, thoughtful glance at Han Li, he quickly hurried off to retrieve the bamboo scrolls listing the cultivation-related duties. In his heart, however, he was wondering about the relationship between Han Li and his superior. "Here are all the cultivation-related tasks assigned from above. Please take your time to review them, Han!" Yu returned with a bundle of jade-green bamboo scrolls shortly thereafter. Han Li thanked him and carefully went through the scrolls. "Care for thirteen five-flower trees, delivering 200 fruits annually." "Attend to one three-hundred-year-old fire-cloud ginseng, ensuring its vitality remains unimpaired." "Plant one acre of moon-moss grass, delivering 100 pounds of dried grass per season." "Oversee one plot of yellow jade bamboo grove..." ... The cultivation tasks listed on the scrolls were diverse and numerous! Yet none of the earlier ones had caught韩立's eye. It was only when the bamboo scroll reached its middle that a task truly satisfying to韩立 emerged.
