Although at the Civilization Master Association, you can always see countless Civilization Masters coming and going, seemingly everywhere.
But in reality, a new Civilization Master, even if only Low Tier, even if only developing Yellow Level Technique.
Is a blessing for most small Cultivation Method Research Institutes.
As long as they can invite them to join, they can reap countless benefits.
Moreover, just publishing a Yellow Level Technique does not mean they can only create Yellow Level Techniques in the future.
Even if there's a possibility they're the disguise of a Great Power, what if!
What if they're not, or what if the invitation is successful, it would be a huge gain without loss.
For a moment, before Lin Ping'an could understand, his private message box on the Celestial Dao Network exploded.
In an instant, it stacked up to 999+ unread messages.
In response, after casually opening two messages, he found they were all similar invitations from Cultivation Method Research Institutes, so he decisively shut them down.
He even set the settings to reject strangers.
Lin Ping'an doesn't need to join any Cultivation Method Research Institute, he doesn't need extra resources, nor does he need others to dictate his actions, he can create techniques all by himself.
Joining them would only bring a bunch of limitations without any benefits.
Afterward, Lin Ping'an continued to check the technique sales page.
It showed sales reaching tens of thousands, increasing at an extremely slow speed.
But after carefully looking at the purchase evaluations below, he understood everything.
This was blocking someone's path to wealth!
As the saying goes, blocking someone's wealth is like killing their parents; this situation was within Lin Ping'an's expectations.
Only, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Although some of the comments had some truth, Lin Ping'an was not planning to change.
Let it be destroyed then!
In order to become stronger quickly, there is no other way.
Moreover, Lin Ping'an is not a saint who sacrifices his own interests for others' interests.
This is a path struggle, it's his path, his way, his direction forward.
Now that the [Painful Demon Body] technique can no longer quickly bring profits and power, it's time to create other techniques.
Anyway, with the assistance of the Civilization Master System, creating techniques is incredibly fast.
While weak now, he needs to lie low until he can settle scores when he's stronger later.
Most of the time, Lin Ping'an is very rational and steady.
With this thought, he exited the Celestial Dao Network again, choosing not to argue or publicly oppose others' comments.
Instead of wasting time arguing, just create more techniques and slap them in the face.
Simultaneously.
On the Celestial Dao Network.
"Damn it! That guy went offline again! Completely ignoring us!"
"My money! My promotion! Damn it! Happy for nothing again!"
"I'm so pissed! Why didn't he reply? Does he really think he has a future without joining a research institute? What a fool!"
"..."
A group of employees from small Cultivation Method Research Institutes cursed angrily.
Initially, they thought they had a chance to get promoted and raise their salary to reach the peak of their lives, only to be met with a defeat.
Lin Ping'an clearly had no intention of paying attention.
In such situations, whoever successfully contacts the Civilization Master for their research institute, whether successful or not, will receive a reward.
Currently, those people didn't profit, which is no different from losing money, and such behavior is typical.
The next day, in the morning.
Lin Ping'an got up early and arrived at the Celestial Yang City Martial Arts Association.
Although the place is small and in a third-tier location, it's fully equipped with all necessary facilities.
With the Civilization Master Association, Martial Arts Association, and various departments all complete.
Just without the high-end setups that major cities have!
Places like Demon Capital and Capital City, those first-tier locations, have High Level Civilization Masters, Grandmaster and even Grandmaster Martial Artists overseeing them.
But here, the highest are just Middle Level Civilization Masters and Middle Tier Martial Artists.
For this, Lin Ping'an was very confident. Under the effect of the Profound Level Concealing Breath Technique, no one could detect his disguise.
Due to the time, apart from the staff, no one else appeared.
This is precisely why he came so early.
If it can minimize trouble, then so be it.
Although in big cities high school students in the First Grade Realm are common, it's quite rare and special in small cities.
Lin Ping'an doesn't want to be scrutinized like a giant panda.
If not for necessary reasons, he wouldn't want to certify so early.
A few minutes later, he walked to the reception desk.
"Hello, I want to proceed with First Grade Martial Artist certification!"
Upon hearing this, the receptionist's eyes were filled with bewilderment and some surprise.
"Huh? Little brother! You? First Grade? Martial Artist? Certification? Uh... alright! Go over there to the machine, fill out the information, pay the fee, and then go to Test Field No. 1 and follow the steps to test on various machines."
In response, Lin Ping'an nodded, turned around, and left.
A few seconds later, the receptionist snapped back to reality, yawned, and muttered to herself.
"Coming to test Qi Blood Value is one thing, but a First Grade Martial Artist certification! This little brother is really interesting! Feels like it's true!"
On the other side, Lin Ping'an filled out his identity information, completed facial recognition certification, paid the fee, and headed to the testing training grounds.
A few minutes later, he arrived at a deserted location equipped only with various testing machines.
Following the prompt, he tested each one by one.
[Qi Blood Value: 110 cards]
[Speed: 11 meters/second]
[Strength: 1100 kilograms]
In just moments, he completed the tests, controlled the values just above the threshold.
All data perfectly fits the range for a freshly broken through First Grade Martial Artist after Body Tempering.
Lower Third Grades certification is just that simple.
Yet even so, it blocked countless ordinary people and Quasi-Martial Artists.
Though it seems simple, compared to ordinary people, it is already a non-human realm.
After testing, the relevant data was simultaneously input into his identity information, and within it, the Martial Arts Realm was changed to First Grade Realm.
Heading out, he returned to the reception desk.
"Hello, certification is complete, please issue the First Grade Martial Artist certificate."
"Oh... okay...???"
For an instant, the receptionist was a bit stunned, her voice trembling.
"Pa...passed? No... way!"
While speaking, she quickly clicked on the computer to check.
Within seconds, Lin Ping'an's test results appeared prominently.
[Passed!]
Also below were various data results and his basic information.
At that moment, the receptionist's eyes widened, her cherry blossom lips agape, utterly shocked.
"Ten...eighteen years old? Hi...high school student? This...this... oh heavens!"
Right in front, Lin Ping'an was calm and composed, lightly tapping the reception desk.
"Hello, you should have finished checking by now! May I ask if the First Grade Martial Artist certificate can be issued?"
In his tone, a slight impatience could be heard.
