Chapter 132 This Master is Reliable
Seeing that the eight peak masters admired Shen Rugo greatly and were all excited, they loudly proclaimed that they wanted to reward her.
Shen Rugo admired her master's shamelessness more and more, but she was also deeply moved.
Although this master was a bit shameless, he was really good to me.
This is clearly an attempt to gain more for oneself from the limited number of spirit stones.
For Shen Rugo, she was not afraid of having more spirit stones; the more rewards, the better.
Sure enough, Xingchen Daoist said loudly, "My fellow disciples share the same idea as me. Our Xingchen Palace will definitely reward meritorious disciples handsomely."
Only by clearly distinguishing between rewards and punishments can disciples be motivated to strive for excellence and their enthusiasm be ignited.
I just wonder, fellow disciples, how many spirit stones do you think we should reward our little disciple Shen Rugo with?
After all, she's my apprentice, so I shouldn't get involved, lest others gossip!
The Star Daoist had a loud and clear voice, and a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance.
Shen Rugo almost burst out laughing. Her master's strategy of retreating to advance was truly ingenious.
Sure enough, as soon as Daoist Xingchen finished speaking, someone said loudly, "Shen Rugo has earned so many spirit stones for our Xingchen Palace. In addition to her share, we should each give her one-twentieth of the reward."
Before the man could finish speaking, another man shouted, "Whatever they bet on should naturally be given to them. Why do you need to tell me?"
As for one-twentieth of each person, how could you even come up with that?
"Yes, one-twentieth is too little, at least one-fifteenth!"
"One-fifteenth is too little, let's make it one-twelfth, and not just one-twelfth for each of us, but one-twelfth of the total!"
"Why does it have to be one-twelfth? Why can't it be one-tenth? One-tenth of the total is fine, and it's easier to calculate!"
"Yes, Sect Leader, let's give one-tenth of the total amount as a reward to Shen Rugo!"
Soon, the eight peak masters agreed to award one-tenth of the total amount to Shen Rugo as a reward to recognize her special contribution.
Shen Rugo listened in stunned silence.
Her ring already contained two million top-grade spirit stones, far exceeding the value of everything here.
Now, they actually want to give her another tenth of it?
I am truly unworthy of this honor!
Shen Rugo felt ashamed, but quickly gave her master, Daoist Xingchen, an approving look, the meaning of which was clear: Master, you are reliable, I like you.
Xingchen Daoist was also overjoyed, slightly raising his chin at Shen Rugo with an air of arrogance.
One-tenth of the total reward was to be given to Shen Rugo, and all eight peak masters agreed. Xiao Changkong and the other five naturally wouldn't object, since it was a reward for their junior sister.
So, one-tenth of this large pile of spirit stones was first given to Shen Rugo.
At this moment, someone suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Sect Leader, what are the odds this time? How many times can we each earn?"
Forty-five point fifty-eight!
"Forty-five point five eight? That means our investment of one thousand top-grade spirit stones can multiply forty-five point five eighty times, becoming forty-five thousand five hundred and eighty top-grade spirit stones?"
"That's exactly right. Aren't you happy? Aren't you surprised?"
"That's great! We're so happy! I thought it would only increase tenfold, but it's increased more than fortyfold!"
The crowd cheered again.
"Alright, you've only earned a few spirit stones, why are you so smug?"
"Aren't you ashamed of yourselves in front of these young disciples at your age?"
"Daoist Xingchen said with a look of disgust."
"Hahaha, what's shameful about this? We're all on the same side! Senior Brother Sect Leader, even if we give one-tenth to Shen Rugo, we'll still get forty times the amount, right?"
"Exactly!"
"Then I'm rich! I invested 1,200 top-grade spirit stones this time, and with a 40-fold return, that's 48,000."
"We've struck gold! Senior Brother Sect Leader, hurry up and distribute the spirit stones!"
"I can't wait any longer, Senior Brother Sect Leader, let's begin!"
Therefore, the eight peak masters each produced their betting receipts.
"Aren't you ashamed? You should have been the first to receive the prizes. They should have been given to children like Ruge first. Those who have joined our sect should be given to the sect."
As for my share, forget it. I just broke through to a higher realm and expended a lot of energy; consider it a deduction!
While complaining about the eight people, Xingchen Daoren distributed the items, even righteously canceling his own share.
"Our sect leader is indeed upright and honorable, a role model for us all. We admire him!"
The eight peak masters quickly offered their flattery.
However, everyone was thinking to themselves: You're kidding me! Who knows how many spirit stones you spent this time? It's definitely far more than what you got for investing a thousand top-grade spirit stones!
But flattery still had to be given, after all, the sect leader had already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm and would lead the Star Palace to rise again.
What followed was a grand feast of dividing up the spirit stones.
Almost every peak master happily accepted their share, then, holding the spirit stones, laughed heartily and transformed into a stream of light, departing.
Soon, all eight of them left.
Apart from a large portion belonging to the sect, all the spirit stones were distributed.
Although the eight peak masters were repeatedly instructed by Daoist Xingchen not to tell anyone, as this was the sect's top secret, each of them harbored their own selfish motives and secretly notified one of their elders to place an order.
However, the orders were small, only two or three hundred top-grade spirit stones, which were also taken this time.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and take the spirit stones to cultivate properly. Didn't you see that your junior sister has broken through again and is now at the seventh level of Qi Refining?"
Seeing the eight peak masters leave, while his five personal disciples were still staring at him blankly, Daoist Xingchen frowned and angrily rebuked them.
"Ah, Junior Sister has broken through again, reaching the seventh level of Qi Refining?"
"This is too fast! Isn't the foundation unstable?"
Xiao Changkong and the others were startled and couldn't help but look at Shen Rugo.
After all, Shen Rugo was only at the second level of Qi Refining a few days ago, and then she broke through to the third, fourth and fifth levels. In just a few days, she broke through two more levels.
He broke through five realms in just five or six days; that's just too monstrous.
While speed may be fast, an unstable foundation is not a good thing.
A towering building rises from the ground; in the path of cultivation, laying a solid foundation is of utmost importance.
"You don't need to worry about that. As your master, I will guide you junior sisters on how to solidify your foundation."
Besides, she's only ten years old; there's no need for her to break through so quickly!
"And you lot, what are you all standing there for? Get out of here!"
Xingchen Daoren noticed the unfriendly looks in the eyes of these disciples, especially Chen Tianba, whose eyes were cold and menacing, as if he might explode at any moment. Clearly, he had discovered something.
All he wants now is to get rid of these five disciples as soon as possible.
Seeing the hostile looks from Xiao Changkong, Lu Haoran, Chen Tianba, and others, Qinghe Daoren, realizing the matter was settled, quickly made his escape.
As soon as he left, Chen Tianba shouted, "Hey old man, everyone else is gone, shouldn't you tell the truth?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other four people surrounded Xingchen Daoist.
