Monarch Of Time

Chapter 612: Faction wars' rules (2)

Entering inside the Assignment Hall, Shun Long and the rest walked directly to the 'Exchange counter' to hand in their missions.

Just like last time, the Exchange counter in the Assignment Hall had a large line of disciples queueing up in front of it, making Shun Long and the rest join the queue as well.

Almost half an hour later, Shun Long's turn finally arrived.

''How can I help you?''

Looking at the young woman with the robes of an outer court disciple behind the Exchange counter in front of him, Shun Long took out his sect identifying token and placed it on the counter as he mentioned the names of the 2 missions that he wanted to hand in.

The young woman nodded her head calmly as she walked to the 'Mission Board' behind her and quickly found the 2 missions that Shun Long had mentioned, before she placed the 2 scrolls in front of Shun Long and asked him

''Are these the 2 missions that you want to hand in?''

''D-rank faction mission: Hunt down a middle rank 5 'Poison-tongued Toad' from the 'Giant crane Forest' 3000 miles away from the Holy city, and bring back its magic beast core.

Reward: 7000 sect points''

''C-rank faction mission: Travel to Tang city of the 'Blue star continent' in the Northern region and infiltrate the royal palace of the Tang dynasty to assassinate the crown prince. This mission requires extreme caution as there is at least one early-stage Dao King who is protecting the crown prince in secret at all times.

Reward: 10.000 sect points''

After taking a look at the 2 scrolls in front of him, Shun Long nodded his head in confirmation, before the young woman in yellow robes took his sect identifying token and placed it on a specific spot on the counter.

The formations etched on the counter were activated one after the other, before the scenes recorded inside Shun Long's sect identifying token started to replay in front of Shun Long's and the young woman's eyes.

The young woman was surprised when she saw Shun Long venturing inside the 'Giant Crane forest' by himself, since this was obviously a D-rank faction mission and not a personal mission, causing her to throw a curious look at Shun Long.

After all, a middle rank 6 magic beast was strong enough that it needed at least an entire group of outer court disciples led by an early rank 6 in the Nascent Soul to work together if they wanted to kill it.

Additionally, the woman also knew that it wasn't too uncommon inside the Holy sect for some powerful disciples to complete faction missions by themselves.

However, the more she saw, the more surprised she became with every passing moment.

Seeing the scene of Shun Long beheading the immobilized middle rank 5 'Poison-tongued Toad' with a single sword slash made the young woman suck in a breath of cold air, as her eyes involuntarily glanced at the name on the golden-colored token a moment later.

'''Shun Long'... is this person a beast tamer? How come I have never heard of his name before?'' The young woman thought to herself as she watched Shun Long store the body of the 'Poison-tongued Toad' inside his spatial ring before he left the toad's pond.

From the familiarity that Shun Long had searched for the 'Poison-tongued Toad' without stopping to fight any random magic beasts, the young woman naturally guessed that Shun Long was most likely a beast tamer or someone who happened to know a lot about the 'Poison-tongued Toad' itself.

Naturally, after she confirmed that Shun Long hadn't used any external help to kill the toad, she transferred 7000 sect points into Shun Long's token, before she turned her eyes towards the next scenes that started to play in front of her.

If Shun Long hunting the 'Poison-tongued Toad' had left the young woman surprised just now, then the next scenes that followed made her stare blankly at the air with a look of disbelief on her face.

The young woman saw Shun Long tear space open continuously as he infiltrated the royal palace of the Tang dynasty along with Xingyi, before he and Xingyi both hid themselves inside what seemed to be a space tear.

However, the most baffling scenes were actually the inexplainable death of the target of the mission, the crown prince of the Tang dynasty, Tang Long, whose body seemed to have suddenly turned into a corpse, as well as the entire Tang city falling silent soon after, as Shun Long and the rest had barely managed to escape from the royal palace.

Naturally, Shun Long hadn't recorded the scene of Jiang Tianfang beating the Dao Emperor of the Tang dynasty, since he was actually planning to let Little Black handle Tang Wu by himself.

Shun Long wouldn't risk capturing Little Black's image into his 'sect identifying token', so he had stopped the recording formation at that moment.

Seeing that the scene had abruptly stopped there, the young woman at the Exchange counter suddenly felt the urge to ask what had happened next, since she could guess that a peak expert from the Tang dynasty had probably appeared after they had killed the crown prince, but Shun Long was somehow still standing in front of her completely unharmed.

However, once she remembered that the mission itself only stated that they had to kill the crown prince, she suppressed her curiosity and transferred 10.000 sect points to Shun Long's sect identifying token without asking anything else.

At that moment, Shun Long's sect identifying token lit up with a bright golden light, as a series of golden letters formed a single word on the surface of his token

'Qualified'

The young woman behind the 'Exchange counter' stared at the changes in Shun Long's token for a moment, before her gaze fell back on Shun Long.

Indeed, after Liu Mei, Xie Xingyi, Bai Longtian, and Jiang Chen, had all handed in the D-rank faction missions that they had completed by themselves previously, the only one left was Shun Long.

Once the young woman behind the exchange counter had verified Shun Long's missions, Shun Long understood that his faction instantly became qualified to participate in the faction wars of the Holy sect.

''Congratulations. Your faction is now qualified to take part in the faction wars!''

Although the young woman was surprised that the young man in front of her -whom she believed to be a beast tamer- hadn't joined a big faction and instead had formed his own, she still congratulated Shun Long a moment later with a smile on her face.

''As per the sect rules, since your faction is qualified to join the faction wars, let me explain the rules of the faction wars within the sect.''

Once a faction was deemed eligible to join the faction wars, the disciples from the 'Exchange counter' in the 'Assignment Hall' were the ones responsible for explaining the rules of the faction wars to anyone who wasn't familiar with them.

Thus, the yellow-robed woman looked at Shun Long before she continued

''Every month, your faction will have to compete at least once against another faction in the faction wars.

You will be notified before the matches through your sect identifying token, before you are instructed to proceed to the arena for the faction war.

No more than 10 outer disciples are allowed to be a part of your faction in every fight!

You are allowed to forfeit the match if you want to, but forfeiting in the faction wars is similar to forfeiting a fight in the 'Martial Roll of Honor' and will lower your faction's ranking.

Of course, your faction is ranked at the bottom right now, so you don't have to worry about dropping any further.

Additionally, every single faction ranked in the top 2000 within the sect will also receive resources from the sect every month, including sect points and spirit stones! However, factions below the top 2000 rankings won't receive anything.

This means that if you really want to obtain resources, you should aim for the top 2000 spots, but no faction within the top 2000 is actually weak!

Naturally, the higher your ranking, the better the rewards!''

The young woman's monotonous voice turned somewhat excited upon reaching this moment as she then continued

''The rewards that the top 1000 factions obtain are more than 10 times better than the factions ranked in the top 2000!

As for the top 100 factions... it is said that the rewards that they obtain are better than the rest of the top 2000 factions below them combined!

I have even heard that each of the top 100 factions possess their own territory within the sect as well!

Ah, but the rules to fight the top 100 factions are different from the rest of the fights among the faction wars.

Wars against the top 100 factions aren't scheduled by the sect.

Instead, only the top 1000 factions are allowed to challenge the top 100 factions, but this 'challenge' is much more brutal than the normal faction wars!

Since the top 100 factions have their own territory within the sect, any faction ranked within the top 1000 can attack their territory and challenge them at any time.

The top 100 factions have no choice but to accept the fight and start the war or they will thus lose their territory.

But of course, any faction within the top 100 rankings can only be challenged twice every day at most.

Naturally, during the faction wars, you are not allowed to kill or cripple another disciple, but everything else is allowed!''

At the same time that the young woman finished speaking, Shun Long's sect identifying token on top of the 'Exchange counter' lit up for the second time, before another series of words appeared on its surface.
