568 A Pleasant Surprise, Must Meet Requirements!

Happy had smoothly completed the final segment of Nine Yang Divine Skill, and after staying in the ship for a long time, his heart just became even more excited. He wanted to immediately go to Wudang Sect and search for Reverend Zhang to complete the dream that he did not even dare to dream in his previous life.

Nine Yang Divine Skill was a qi cultivation technique that did not lose to Nine Yin Manual. Even though it did not have harsh training requirements, the speed at which it increased its user qi was still very astonishing. According to rumors, there was someone who had run around for this quest for more than a year, but later on, there was no longer any news about it. However, that person still managed to become a great player who was very famous in the game.

When Happy thought about how his Comprehension would increase after he obtained Nine Yang Divine Skill, allowing his qi cultivation to increase by leaps and bounds as well, and also helping him cut down on the training time he needed to master a martial art, his heart instantly started burning with passion.

In fact, he did not even pay attention to how the people went to boats and used the water route to return to their own sects!

The ship docked at the port at Suzhou Creek. No one knew whether this was a special treatment reserved for the champion of players in the martial arts tournament.

However, the Murong Clan Lady and the eight aristocratic families had clearly become much more polite to him.

On the way, those who brought him tea and snacks were all the young disciples from the eight aristocratic families. Even elites who were among the ranks of Master Nangong chatted happily with the Murong Clan Lady while they were on their way back.

"We're here, Happy."

When the Murong Clan Lady called out to him, they got down the ship together. They then dashed back, and soon, they returned to the Murong Mansion in Gusu City!

The Murong Clan members had long since received news and formed a team outside the mansion to receive them. Even Master Murong personally came out of the mansion. When he saw Happy, he walked over with a majestic gait and laughed loudly.

"Haha! As expected of a disciple from the Murong Clan. Happy, you've helped the Murong Clan gain an awe-inspiring reputation in this martial arts tournament! Tell me, how should I reward you?"

It was not difficult to tell from his tone that Master Murong was indeed very happy.

The Murong Clan Lady and Happy stood still.

Many players had heard of this and came over a long time ago to watch.

Happy wrapped his fist in his palm, bowed, and answered. "It is because the lady and you have guided me well, which was why I could display the Murong Clan's might."

His answer was humble, and it gained Master Murong's favor.

"Stop being so humble, Happy. The Murong Clan has only ever accepted disciples with high comprehension. Guiding you into our clan was my responsibility, but your cultivation later on is all your own hard work."

Once he finished speaking, the Murong Clan Lady turned to Master Murong. "We gave him a promise at that time that if he became one of the top three among the young disciples in the martial arts tournament, you would give him the manual of Shifting Stars."

"Haha…" Master Murong laughed heartily. "Of course! Are you worried that I will break my promise to my own disciple?"

"Of course not." The Murong Clan Lady looked around her and lowered her voice. "Let's go into the mansion and talk."

Master Murong had a dazed expression on his face before he realized that it was a little too flashy for him to reward Happy based on his deeds in the open. He nodded, and with the Murong Clan disciples surrounding them, they returned to the mansion. But only Happy, the Murong Clan Lady, and Master Murong entered the hall.

"Speak." Master Murong could tell that the Murong Clan Lady had something to say.

The Murong Clan Lady cast a profound glance at Happy and said slowly, "Happy revealed his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm in the martial arts tournament, and not only did he obtain Guo Jing's approval, he also gained Xiao Feng's favor. Xiao Feng went on the stage to personally teach him.

"Master Kong Xiang also gave up his position on the stage for him. Later on, when the evil cult attacked us, Happy heavily injured Flowers Sect's Shadow Assassin with a single palm strike.

"After that, he personally killed two evil cult elders with extraordinary abilities!"

Master Murong's eyebrows twitched a few times. In the end, when he heard that Shadow Assassin Yang Xuyan was injured by Happy and how two evil cult elders had died in his hands, he was so shocked that he could not close his mouth.

"The elites from the various sects, including Ming Cult's Zhang Wuji, are full of praises for Happy. That's why I believe that not only has he fulfilled his promise, he has also obtained great glory for Murong Clan. Could we give him some extra rewards?"

The Murong Clan Lady's last sentence shocked Happy. She actually took the initiative to request for more rewards…

It was practically the same as someone throwing a bag of money in his face!

Master Murong was silent for a while.

He thought about it before he nodded slowly. "It is as you said. Happy has indeed contributed greatly this time. Aside from Shifting Stars, what other rewards do you think he should receive?"

Master Murong could not think of any good rewards within a short time, so he tossed the difficult problem to his own daughter.

The Murong Clan Lady had thought about it all along the way. When she heard his words, she was delighted and gave her suggestion without hesitation.

"Happy has absolutely no problem with inheriting Shifting Stars, but he might not be able to practice it within the foreseeable future. I believe that we have a need for Happy to display the great name of our clan's martial arts, so why don't we teach him a martial art?"

"Oh." Master Murong sucked in a deep breath. "Daughter, are you saying that we should teach him that martial art?"

"Indeed." The Murong Clan Lady nodded vigorously. "Joined Finger is an ultimate technique that does not lose to Shifting Stars. Right now, Happy is using a palm technique. With Joined Finger, he would be even stronger."

"Learning two ultimate techniques in one go? That is something that has never happened before in the Murong Clan." Master Murong sucked in a deep breath; he seemed to be slightly hesitant.

Happy felt his heart surge while he listened from the side!

He had thought of receiving his rewards swiftly and heading to Wudang Sect, but he never expected that something unexpected would pop up because of the Murong Clan Lady's words.

He might receive another ultimate technique out of the blue, and it was Joined Finger, an incredibly domineering ultimate technique!

In his excitement, Happy temporarily forgot about Nine Yang Divine Skill. With sparkling eyes, he stared at Master Murong and the Murong Clan Lady. He did not bother to hide his desire for what the Murong Clan Lady suggested.

The Murong Clan Lady thought of the way around the problem. "This is easy. We can temporarily keep Shifting Stars from him and teach him Joined Finger first. Once Happy reaches the requirements for Shifting Stars, we can give it to him."

"This is good!"

Master Murong's eyes lit up.

"If that's the case, have you agreed to it, father?" There was great joy on the Murong Clan Lady's face.

"Of course, if we don't teach our ultimate techniques to such a good disciple, who should we teach it to?" When Master Murong said that, he laughed incredibly boisterously. "Happy, catch."

When he said that, a ray of black light shot toward Happy.

He calmly positioned his left hand into a claw and caught it. A thin book landed on his palm, and the great power around it vanished without a trace like a stone sinking to the bottom of the ocean.

"I knew it, you do have some skill." When Master Murong saw how calm, relaxed, and elegant Happy was, the smile on his face grew brighter. He nodded repeatedly. "Practice well. I hope that you will not disgrace the mighty name of Joined Finger."

"I understand!"

When Happy received the manual, he was incredibly excited, and his face was full of happiness. He learned the technique without hesitation.

The system sent him a notification.

"Ding!

"Successfully learned Joined Finger!"
