As the blood light shone, Zhang Zhenyu, Chu Qingwu, and Old Master Zhou all stared at the small compass.

This gave Su Mo great mental pressure.

It was like having three invigilators supervising him taking an exam.

He couldn’t even fidget.

Su Mo felt like time was inexplicably slow and long.

After an unknown amount of time, the blood light turned faint and gradually disappeared.

Then, a small blood-red sword was formed on the Tai Chi diagram in the center.

Seeing this small sword, Su Mo could not help but wonder what was the meaning of this small sword. Did he pass or not?

Su Mo looked at Zhang Zhenyu only to see that the latter had frozen.

His face looked like it was having a facial spasm as his muscles twitched non-stop.

After a long time, his voice was trembling as he said, “A sword saint!”

“He is indeed a sword saint,” Old Master Zhou, who seemed to have seen through the vicissitudes of life, sighed as his face was filled with shock.

Even Chu Qingwu’s gaze toward Su Mo became complicated.

Other than shock and disbelief, there was also a different kind of emotion.

“What’s wrong with the sword saint profession? Is it strange?”

“No! It’s not strange at all. Rather, it’s better to say that it’s too good!” Zhang Zhenyu looked at Su Mo as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

No matter how he looked at it, he was satisfied.

He then said to Chu Qingwu, “Xiao Chu, take good care of Xiao Su. I’ll help him apply for the origin pearl for his entrance into the profession.”

With that, he ran out in joy.

His eager expression was like that of a groom who was about to get married.

Su Mo looked at Zhang Zhenyu, who had run away, and was still confused, “Is there a problem with the sword saint profession?”

Chu Qingwu looked at him and said, “According to the different power characteristics, we have divided the Transcendent professions into three categories, namely pure cultivation, mixed cultivation, and turbid cultivation. Out of the 12 official professions, 10 of them are within the category of mixed cultivation. Among them, the sword saint and the heavy cannoneer are the most powerful professions. Heavy cannoneers are often in the military, and it’s not easy to train them. As such, only sword saints can be said to be the most powerful Transcendent profession that we can normally come into contact with. For a Transcendent team like ours, having a sword saint is like having a backbone. How could Captain Zhang not be happy? Even the deacons and the guards superior to us would be very happy to receive this news. The origin pearl to be used for your inauguration can be said to be in the bag.”

Old Master Zhou also smiled and added, “You might not know how rare the sword saint profession is. I’ll put it this way. Now, we have a Transcendent team stationed in each district. Each team has about five to eight members. Tianmu City has a total of 16 districts, and added with the training bases of the hunting squad and the military, the total number of official Transcendents will not exceed three hundred. Even if we include the registered and anonymous civilian Transcendents, the total number would not exceed six hundred. Among these 600 extraordinary humans, only one has the sword saint profession. Including you, that’s two now. From a broader perspective, among the 12 million people in Tianmu City, there are only the two of you sword saints. Now, do you know how rare this profession is?”

When Su Mo heard this, he was completely shaken.

He had been worried that he might not be able to get a profession, or could only take up a Transcendent profession that had no future.

He had never thought that fate would give him such a shocking surprise.

To think he had entered the sword saint profession right from the start and would thus have an extraordinary future.

This was…

This was the opening of the prodigy style!

Su Mo felt elated and proud.

The uneasiness on his face was long gone.

Chu Qingwu looked at his smug expression and couldn’t help but say, “Don’t be happy too soon. Even a sword saint gets the same salary as us. Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you about the organization’s salary.”

She continued, “The base salary is 10000 Yuan, and there will be subsidies for missions. There will also be performance bonuses. There’s also a year-end bonus at the end of the year, usually two to two hundred months of salary.”

“Two hundred months?” Su Mo cried out in shock, “Wouldn’t that be two million?”

“Do you think it’s that easy to get the top salary?” Chu Qingwu said in an annoyed tone, “I worked my ass off last year and only got 80 months’ worth of the year-end bonus.”

“800000 Yuan is already quite a lot. I don’t have much of an appetite. I’ll be satisfied as long as I can get half of Sister Qingwu’s.”

“Then you’ll have to work harder,” The corners of Chu Qingwu’s mouth curled up slightly, “Even if you’re a sword saint, a level 1 sword saint and a level 3 sword saint are two different things. If you’re not capable enough, you won’t be able to earn that much money.”

Su Mo clenched his fists and said with ambition, “No matter what, I have to at least earn enough to build a toilet this year.”

“Don’t just focus on the money,” Old Master Zhou interrupted, “The most important things in the bureau are the merit points and points. Compared to money, these two things are the real hard currency. Points could be used to buy information, exchange for talismans, materials, and many other things. Merit points are even more precious, and can even be used to exchange for magic items.”

Hearing this, Su Mo’s eyes lit up, “The magic item you’re talking about should be something like the azurite bell in Captain Zhang’s hands, right?”

The azurite bell was the defensive magic item that he had worn at dawn today when facing the demon fox.

Just the fact that it could withstand the attacks of a level 3 fox demon was enough to make him envious.

“Captain Zhang got the azurite bell with a third-class merit,” Old Master Zhou replied with a smile.

Su Mo turned to look at Chu Qingwu and asked, “Did we get third-class merit for killing the level 3 fox demon last night?”

“Do you think it’s that easy to get merit points?” Chu Qingwu glanced at him, “For Captain Zhang’s third-class merit, he had to lie in bed for half a month after that mission. You should know that we have healers. The criteria for Transcendents to be awarded merit is even stricter than that of soldiers. For the mission last night, it’s already good enough for you to get 50 points.”

Su Mo was deeply shocked.

Old Master Zhou chuckled, “Don’t be discouraged. There’s still a long way to go. Besides, there’s a weapon on the merit exchange list that’s quite suitable for you. Its name is the lightless sword. It was once the personal weapon of a level 6 sword saint. If you can get that sword, you can probably display a terrifying combat power even at level 1. It’s a pity that it requires first-class merit.”

Su Mo laughed bitterly, “How fortunate am I to be awarded first-class merit?”

“Don’t be discouraged!” Chu Qingwu patted his shoulder and said with a smile, “There’s also the exchange ratio between merits. One first-class merit is equivalent to ten second-class merits, which is 100 third-class merits. Calculating this according to the standard of being bedridden for half a month for one third-class merit, wouldn’t you have this sword if you’re bedridden for four years?”

Su Mo rolled his eyes at her, “You’re really good at math.”

“You’re too kind to say that.”

…

At the same time, Zhang Zhenyu had already passed on the news of someone obtaining the sword saint profession to his immediate superior.

She was the deacon who led the four major districts, Xu Liushuang.
