The Transmission Hall was empty with only a few people present when Lin Fei arrived. They were undergoing martial arts certification.

Lin Fei waited for his turn and then stepped forward.

"Respectful greetings to all the elders," Lin Fei bowed.

"Why have you come to the Transmission Hall?" the elder asked.

"I came to certify my Body Refining at the seventh level," Lin Fei replied.

"Show me your badge," the elder demanded.

Lin Fei took out his badge, and the elder got his information immediately.

The elder was surprised after checking Lin Fei's information. "Lin Fei, eighteen years old. You were only at the fourth level of Body Refining before. Are you sure you're here to certify at the seventh level?"

"Yes, I am here to certify at the seventh level. Please, elder," Lin Fei replied and immediately activated the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique.

A massive surge of blood energy hit them.

Giant Whale Body Refining Technique was best known for its blood energy, so it was terrifying when fully activated.

The elder had extensive experience and could tell Lin Fei's current state with a glance.

"The seventh level of the Whale Technique, not bad. You have indeed reached the seventh level of Body Refining.

Moreover, you're only eighteen years old and have reached the seventh level of Body Refining, making you an inner disciple.

Those who reach the seventh level of Body Refining before twenty years of age and become inner disciples will be rewarded ten thousand contribution points by the sect."The elder smiled.

"Thank you, elder," Lin Fei was also very happy.

The task of teaching the Nine Shadow Saber Technique had cost him five thousand contribution points before. Now, he had gained ten thousand contribution points in one go. Overall, he had profited.

"This is your new badge."

Lin Fei received the new badge, which was red and represented the status of an inner disciple.

"Junior Brother Liu, take Lin Fei to the Inner Sect to handle the procedures."

"Yes, Senior Brother," Liu replied.

The elder waved his hand, and Liu led Lin Fei out of the Transmission Hall.

"I'll take you to the Inner Sect first. As for your belongings in the Outer Sect, you can handle them after you join the Inner Sect."

"Yes, Elder Liu," Lin Fei nodded.

He knew that the Inner and Outer Sects were two different areas.

Inner disciples could go to the outer door, but outer disciples cannot enter the inner door. Soon, Lin Fei followed Elder Liu to the inner door.

Upon seeing the inner door, Lin Fei noticed that there were fewer people and many separate courtyards.

"Lin Fei, inner disciples have their own courtyards. Over there is an empty one, you can choose whichever one you like," said Elder Liu.

Lin Fei scanned the courtyards and realized that they were all pretty similar. "This one will do," he said.

"Okay, I'll make a note of it," Elder Liu quickly jotted it down. "Now that you are officially an inner disciple, there are some things you need to know.

Inner disciples can earn a thousand contribution points every month. Most of the items that can be exchanged within the sect using contribution points can be purchased at a fifty percent discount by inner disciples.

Inner disciples can also obtain three acquired-level martial arts skills for free from the Martial Arts Pavilion.

However, these are all benefits that inner disciples enjoy. Naturally, there are corresponding obligations.

Inner disciples must obey the sect's orders and go to various places to support or defend the sect.

The support missions you see are pretty much the same thing."

Lin Fei felt a shiver down his spine. Inner disciples enjoyed many benefits that were incomparable to outer disciples.

Inner disciples were the true disciples of the Nine Profound Sect, as most of them were acquired-level martial artists, who were considered real experts.

The Nine Profound Sect had seized so much territory that they needed disciples to defend it, and they might even come into conflict with other forces. This required experts and acquired-level martial artists were just for that.

The Nine Profound Sect relied on its numerous inner disciples to maintain its current power and even expand it further.

This was also why Nine Profound Sect was not stingy at all towards its inner disciples, the real reason why.

The outer disciples might not have much experience in fighting and killing, but what about the inner disciples?

Each of them had been through countless battles. They were no longer fragile flowers raised in a greenhouse.

"By the way, inner disciples can choose to have a master or not," Elder Liu reminded.

"Usually, it is the innate level experts who take disciples as their students.

Whether or not an innate level expert will accept you as a student depends on your fate."

"Thank you for reminding me, Elder Liu," Lin Fei said respectfully and bowed.

"Haha, I have high hopes for you. If you become an innate expert someday, who knows, I might even come to you for guidance," Elder Liu said, then left.

Lin Fei walked into his yard.

Although it was empty, it was clean, indicating that someone had been taking care of it.

"Not bad, but the outer yard needs to be sold," Lin Fei thought and left the inner gate, returning to his outer yard.

He had bought his outer yard with a considerable amount of money, and now that he was leaving, he naturally wanted to recoup his investment.

So, Lin Fei spread the word that he was selling this yard.

The news had only been out for a day when someone came to his door.

And it was a woman.
