With a mere thought, Mo Tianxiao opened his character panel.

Villain Points: 805252
Destiny Points: 8400
With over eight hundred thousand Villain Points left, he was still far from being able to upgrade his cultivation, but it was enough to improve his sub-professions.
He figured his alchemy experience was almost full, so upgrading it to the next level wouldn't consume too many Villain Points. He decided to just raise it to a higher realm.
After all, this alchemy skill had earned him quite a lot of Villain Points. Such a sub-profession had to be maxed out!
With that thought, Mo Tianxiao focused his mind and directly tapped the plus sign next to High-level Alchemist.
In the next instant, his Villain Points shrank by two hundred thousand. His High-level Alchemist status was upgraded to Top-level Alchemist, and the effects of the pills he could refine now met the needs of cultivators in the Dharma Idol and Tribulation Transcendence realms.
Mo Tianxiao felt a pang of heartache and quickly closed the panel.
He had not expected that even with his experience bar nearly full, it would still cost him two hundred thousand Villain Points. To upgrade a sub-profession from scratch to the top level would cost at least five hundred thousand Villain Points, if not more.
As for the Saint-level sub-professions above that, he had no idea how many Villain Points they would require.
Sure enough, to him right now, Villain Points were even more important than Destiny Points.
One was used to improve his raw strength, while the other was to perfect his methods based on that strength.
"Respected alchemists, thank you all for coming. The Haoran Righteousness Sect has prepared spirit fruits and spirit tea for everyone to enjoy free of charge. Will the alchemists here to observe please take your seats in the audience."
An old man with white hair and a long beard appeared on the high platform. Dressed in a white robe, he possessed the demeanor of a transcendent master.
This person was the Alchemy Hall Elder of the Haoran Righteousness Sect, as well as the Honorary Vice President of the Alchemist Association, Yao Zhi.
Just from his name alone, one could tell his profound attainments in the Dao of Alchemy.
"At the same time, will the candidates participating in the assessment please enter the alchemy area."
Yao Zhi organized the candidates to enter the alchemy area, where hundreds of pill furnaces were neatly arranged with equal spacing. The quality of the furnaces was also exactly the same.
This made the assessment relatively fair, relying entirely on the candidates' own skills and techniques. Of course, using one's own flames was allowed; whether it was an ordinary flame or a rare exotic fire, that was also considered part of one's own strength.
Mo Tianxiao patted Huang Xiaoyao's hand. "I'll go in first. You go to the audience stands and watch your big brother perform."
Huang Xiaoyao nodded excitedly. She had never seen anything like this before. So many people watching a group of people refine pills seemed quite fun.
Although she didn't know what level her Brother Tianxiao's alchemy skills were at in the human world, considering he had refined so many pills for the demon race previously, his strength was definitely not bad. Successfully joining the Haoran Righteousness Sect shouldn't be difficult for him.
Seeing the hundreds of candidates with young, middle-aged, and elderly faces, Yao Zhi smiled.
It seemed quite a few reclusive old fellows had come. He wondered what their skill levels were.
"The judges for this assessment will be myself, Elder Gong from the Alchemist Association, and Core Elder Zhou from the Haoran Righteousness Sect. Elder Gong and Elder Zhou are both Top-level Alchemists, so you don't need to worry about professionalism at all."
Yao Zhi introduced the two people beside him. One was a Top-level Alchemist from the Alchemist Association, and the other was a Top-level Alchemist from the Haoran Righteousness Sect.
As the Alchemy Hall Elder of the Haoran Righteousness Sect and the Vice President of the Alchemist Association, Yao Zhi was a Quasi-Saint-level Alchemist, even more formidable than the other two.
Saint-level Alchemists were extremely rare. Only the true President of the Alchemist Association could refine Saint-level pills. Someone like Yao Zhi, whose highest record was refining pills above the Top-level but below the Saint-level, could only barely be considered a Quasi-Saint-level Alchemist.
"Everyone knows Elder Gong's strength. As for Elder Zhou beside me, perhaps you only know her as a Core Elder of our Haoran Righteousness Sect. But I must tell you all that Elder Zhou is not only formidable in combat, but she also has a unique understanding of alchemy. She is the youngest and most promising Top-level Alchemist I have encountered so far!"
Yao Zhi's explanation made the alchemy enthusiasts and even professionals in the audience look at her with newfound respect.
"I couldn't tell! Elder Zhou is not only beautiful but also strong. Being strong is one thing, but she's also a Top-level Alchemist. With Senior Yao speaking so highly of her, perhaps one day in the future, Elder Zhou will have the chance to become a true Saint-level Alchemist!"
Being praised so highly by Yao Zhi, the person called Elder Zhou merely smiled and nodded at the audience before turning her gaze to the alchemy area.
Mo Tianxiao looked at Zhou Muxi sitting at the judges' table, his brows furrowing slightly as he fell deep into thought.
"Is this guy playing a game of spies?"
She was a deacon of the Blood God Palace's Central Divine Continent branch, a Core Elder of the Haoran Righteousness Sect, and a Top-level Alchemist?
More importantly, these were probably not her only identities. This woman was somewhat terrifying.
Mo Tianxiao silently added Zhou Muxi to his danger list.
This person had even more identities than he did. It seemed she was plotting something massive. She was definitely not a good person.
Zhou Muxi naturally spotted Mo Tianxiao as well. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she sized him up with great interest, as if saying, "What a coincidence, little brother, we meet again."
In response, Mo Tianxiao offered a harmless smile.
Although this woman was dangerous, she definitely knew the location of the Blood God Palace's headquarters. Joining the Haoran Righteousness Sect might give him a chance to get closer to her and gather some information.
"Ahem! Well then, the Haoran Righteousness Sect's alchemist recruitment assessment begins now!"
"As long as you pass the first round of testing, you will earn the right to enter the Haoran Righteousness Sect. Of course, it doesn't matter if you are eliminated; you can take away a full set of ingredients for refining low-level pills for free."
"The alchemy materials for this first round of testing have already been prepared for you. The pill you need to refine is the Golden Profound Pill, a low-level pill. We have prepared three sets of materials for everyone, meaning you can fail a maximum of two times."
"Now, everyone may begin refining."
As soon as Yao Zhi's voice faded, the many alchemists began to operate. They carefully ignited their fires and started refining the pills according to the method for the Golden Profound Pill.
Low-level Alchemists were the most numerous among all alchemists, and they covered the widest range of cultivation realms.
Being able to refine pills used by Qi Condensation cultivators earned one the title of Low-level Alchemist. At the same time, even if you could refine pills for Nascent Soul cultivators, hey, you were still considered to be at the Low-level Alchemist standard.
The Golden Profound Pill could increase a Foundation Establishment cultivator's chances of breaking through to the Golden Core realm. It was considered a standard low-level pill—not easy, but not particularly difficult either.
"Bang!"
The assessment had only just begun, and someone had already blown up their furnace, truly grasping the essence of the alchemy arts.
Like a chain reaction, one alchemy cauldron exploded after another, popping off like a string of firecrackers. The spectators in the stands watched with immense satisfaction, cheering at the thrilling spectacle, while the judges at the panel could only shake their heads in dismay.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all."
