BLOODLINE TEMPERING: Transforming From Worm To Dragon

Chapter 68: 560 Contribution Tokens!

Because they're having such an amazing harvest today, Elder Wei Xuan naturally couldn't be stingy with everyone here. When the sky was about to get darker, he had a senior worker bring a word to the canteen, and food was delivered afterward.

Furthermore, what they served wasn't the usual menu on the ground level, but the exquisite one available to order on the first level. This kind of generosity was not something one could see often!

With a sentence from the elder, everyone came and ate to their heart's content. Of course, that was after someone recorded the number of Burial Roots they handed over to senior workers.

Putting the figure today into total, they had harvested seven hundred Burial Roots in this single day. Furthermore, nothing was left to waste because they missed any of them in between.

It is also safe to say that there's no matured Burial Roots managed to escape their fat of getting uprooted by these human cultivators.

With ten plants in a row, ten rows in one plantation, there's a total of a hundred plants in each. This totaled up to one thousand Spiritual Plants here. Normally, it was already considered amazing for them to harvest close to a quarter in such a day.

But this time, they had almost taken out three-quarters of the Burial Root Plantation. The rest would likely be taken in a day or two with only three hundred or so Burial Roots on the field.

Of course, these would be tomorrow's concerns, not today's.

Because their results were between twenty to twenty-four roots for each individual, the elder rewarded them with fifty Contribution Tokens. This means everyone here had delivered twenty-five roots.

Their number also grew from twenty-five people to thirty people because the rest of the elder's disciples had come to lend them a hand. Without Tang Yun Long and the others, it would be impossible for them to finish everything before the dark.

Nobody had anything to say about Elder Wei Xuan's decision to call all his disciples over. And it was actually normal. Since there's an opportunity to earn more, how can he not prioritize his own people?

The disciples didn't leave after getting paid. Instead, the twenty-three people gathered around Chen Tu and Qin Lei to settle something.

Since they had been approached from the start, everyone naturally knew what Chen Tu and Qin Lei suggested earlier. Some of them obviously had the confidence to perform as excellently without Chen Tu's help, but at the end of the day, didn't they still benefit from him?

"Junior brother Chen, Senior brother Qin, we want you to know that we're thankful for what you did today. As promised, please take twenty Contribution Tokens from each of us!" one of them said. He was also the one who did most excellently in the previous harvest.

Although he didn't need to receive Chen Tu's assistance, seeing how the latter had been helping everyone unconditionally made him question his pride. Ultimately, he decided not to be calculative and honor their part of the deal.

As a senior brother and everyone else's example, this is the least he can do.

"Thank you for your words, senior brother." his words made Chen Tu firmly cup his fists together and lower his posture at everyone else. Naturally, Qin Lei followed. The others also did the same due to the influence that appeared within them.

At this moment, nothing needed to be said.

It was an emotional moment for everyone here. The few who knew Chen Tu was illiterate a month ago even wonder what transpired here. Even Tang Yun Long was puzzled by the charisma displayed by Chen Tu in his simple yet influential words.

"Look... Wasn't this what we geezers aimed for when we joined the grotto? To think such a scene was fulfilled by a junior, the youngest among them, nonetheless..." Elder Wei Xuan said with a chuckle. Obviously, his words were spoken to be listened to by those beside him.

Even the senior workers find it hard to believe that the one who made this happen was Chen Tu and not Qin Lei.

Suppose this boy maintained this attitude and bearing until he was old enough to join the Inner Grotto. Wouldn't he be their Outer Grotto's pride?

Chen Tu then accepted the Contribution Tokens promised as part of his reward. But to maintain his low profile demeanor, he controlled himself from counting them right in front of everyone.

He only took the bag out after everyone had left.

With twenty-three people giving him twenty Contribution Tokens, the total came to four hundred and sixty tokens. And including the fifty tokens from their hands, that's a total of five hundred and sixty.

This means they're just a hundred and forty Contribution Tokens short from buying that Spiritium Velvet Antlers.

"Two rich fellas!" Xia Xuan-Xuan came at them and grabbed both of them into her arms. Although they had no perverted intention in her, they still had to resist her charm, especially her voluptuous figure all young boys drooled for.

Being crushed into her side boobs turned Chen Tu and Qin Lei's cheeks red.

"Alright, Xuan-Xuan. Can't you see that they are as rosy as a peach? Let them go before they had bad ideas on you." Ting Wei teased her.

It wasn't wrong to say that Xia Xuan-Xuan's figure was quite a killer. With ample curves in her front and back, she had the ultimate figure that all men could ask for. Even now, more than ten proposals are coming to her door daily requesting her hand in marriage.

Furthermore, she's merely seventeen this year. With another year added to her maturity, she would definitely be a beauty that could charm a city to surrender unconditionally.

"I remember our teacher once mentioned that nobody would do something to benefit others unless they need it themselves. Now, say what secret you had in your magical gourd before I pull the cork!" Xia Xuan-Xuan looks like a bully while staring at them.

Of course, she appeared beautiful and cute. If it was Ting Wei who did that, it would look weird.

Being asked so directly made Chen Tu turn and look at Qin Lei. Since this was his matter, it was obviously best that Qin Lei explained everything.

This leads to him reciting the entire story about his father to the rest of them all over again.
