Chapter 34: The Rights of Martial Hall Members

Chapter 34: The Rights of Martial Hall Members At 10:30 a.m. the next day.

In the Guanshan branch of Starlight Martial Hall, on the sixth floor.

Inside a conference room with rather ancient decorations.

"Li Yuan, sign your name here, here, and here..." Instructor Xing, whom they had met the previous day, pointed to the places on the contract that needed signatures one by one.

Li Yuan listened while sitting on a chair with his aunt, Chen Hui, and began to sign his name one by one.

Both Li Yuan and his aunt had carefully reviewed this contract the previous evening.

Everything was clear, with no issues.

Once Li Yuan and Chen Hui finished signing, Instructor Xing handed the documents to the Hall Master Wan.

For a B-level contract, the Hall Master's signature was required.

Once the signing was completed, the staff who had been waiting immediately took photos and recorded videos.

The files were then uploaded to the virtual network.

"Buzz~" Li Yuan's smart wristband vibrated. He looked down and saw that he had received a message from the virtual network—a notarized document.

It was sent by the Jiangbei Provincial Martial Arts Department.

"So fast," Li Yuan thought to himself.

"Li Yuan, keep a copy of the document. You should also have received the electronic contract on the virtual network, notarized by the Martial Arts Department."

"It now has legal effect," Hall Master Wan stood up, smiling as he extended his hand. "Welcome, you are officially joining the Starlight Martial Hall."

"Thank you, Hall Master Wan." Li Yuan stood up and shook hands.

Li Yuan was very grateful to Hall Master Wan.

"According to the contract, you will be provided with 1.5 million Blue Star Coins, 1.5 million Martial Hall points, and 3 million training points each year for six years," Hall Master Wan said. "Today, the cash will be directly transferred to your card, and the points and training points will appear under your name once you complete the 'Martial Hall Member Certification.'"

"In addition, my personal sponsorship of 1 million Blue Star Coins and 1 million points will be in place today, so don't worry," Hall Master Wan smiled.

"Alright," Li Yuan nodded.

"Next, Instructor Xing will take you to handle the specifics," Hall Master Wan said with a smile. "If you encounter anything you don't understand or something that Instructor Xing can't solve, contact me and I'll help you."

"Yes," Li Yuan nodded, glancing instinctively at Instructor Xing.

Hall Master Wan's last two sentences seemed to be directed at Instructor Xing.

However, Instructor Xing's face was full of smiles, showing no change in emotion.

Then, Hall Master Wan greeted Chen Hui and left with two subordinates.

"Li Yuan, the contract is signed."

"You don't need to go to school today," said Xu Bo, who had not spoken until now, in a deep voice. "Familiarize yourself with the Martial Hall environment first, and come to school tomorrow."

"Alright," Li Yuan nodded repeatedly. The morning was for cultural classes, and it was too late to attend.

In the afternoon and evening? Those were martial arts self-study classes, the same wherever he was.

"Old Xing, my student is now your responsibility," Xu Bo said to Instructor Xing.

"It's a small matter," Instructor Xing said enthusiastically. "It's my honor to guide Li Yuan."

Only Li Yuan, his aunt, and three Martial Hall members, including Instructor Xing, were left in the conference room.

"Li Yuan, Ms. Chen," Instructor Xing said with a smile. "Come with me. Let's first handle your identity certification, and then I'll give you a tour of the Martial Hall building."

"Do I need to do this too?" Chen Hui was taken aback.

"Ms. Chen, since Li Yuan is joining Starlight Martial Hall, he can normally apply for two family member cards, allowing family members to enjoy some of the Martial Hall's benefits," a martial artist in black said with a smile. "For example, free lunch and dinner, free martial arts classes on weekends, free martial arts rooms, free therapy, and so on."

Li Yuan was quietly impressed.

He had heard at school that formal members of the Martial Hall received many benefits.

Now it seemed that even the benefits of a family member card were worth quite a bit.

"Is it that good?" Chen Hui was initially pleased, then hesitated. "Only two cards?"

"Yes, Li Yuan is an L3 level member of the Martial Hall and has the privilege of two family member cards," the martial artist in black nodded.

"Forget it, I won't apply," Chen Hui shook her head.

She wanted to save the two slots for Li Muhua and Li Qianqian.

"Ms. Chen, don't worry," Instructor Xing said with a smile. "I will give you two W3 level membership cards. You just need to bind one, and the benefits are the same as the family member cards, valid for six years."

"After six years, Li Yuan might have advanced to L4 or even higher levels, naturally increasing the number of family member slots. How about that?" Instructor Xing smiled.

Chen Hui looked at Li Yuan.

"Aunt, Instructor Xing is being kind. Accept it," Li Yuan said. He vaguely understood what was happening.

This was Instructor Xing's way of showing goodwill towards him.

Not accepting it would be impolite.

After completing the identity certification and membership card certification, Li Yuan officially became a preparatory member of Starlight Martial Hall.

After a brief tour, his aunt Chen Hui left first.

Only Li Yuan remained.

He followed Instructor Xing to the seventh floor.

"The entire building."

"The first to sixth floors are open to the public, for selling various auxiliary cultivation treasures, therapy rooms, martial arts rooms, martial arts classes, weapon classes, and so on," Instructor Xing explained to Li Yuan. "The seventh to twelfth floors are usually only accessible to internal members of the Martial Hall."

"Formal members at L1 and L2 levels are equipped with public martial arts rooms, shared by many."

"L3 level members, aside from martial arts geniuses who can sign B-level contracts like you, are middle-level managers and high-level martial artists. High-level martial artists refer to those at least at level 16," Instructor Xing smiled. "They all have individual martial arts rooms."

As he spoke, Instructor Xing led Li Yuan to the door of martial arts room number '7024,' verified his identity, and opened the door.

Immediately.

A spacious martial arts room appeared before Li Yuan's eyes, definitely over 400 square meters.

"So big," Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly.

This was much better than the independent martial arts rooms at school.

The area was more than double, and the technological equipment was more complete, with dedicated therapy and rest rooms.

Even if it wasn't as good as Teacher Xu Bo's office, it was close.

"Your identity certification is complete. From today, you have the right to use this martial arts room for six years," Instructor Xing said with a smile. "Of course, there is a one-month trial period. If you feel uncomfortable, you can request a change."

"All mine?" Li Yuan was quite pleased.

Six years of usage rights were enough.

Even wealthy families with assets of tens of millions couldn't build such a martial arts room.

Time passed.

After lunch, and another hour, through Instructor Xing's introduction and explanation, Li Yuan gradually understood the entire operation process of the Martial Hall, its personnel structure, and what he should do next.

"Li Yuan, detailed rules within the Martial Hall can be found on the virtual network," Instructor Xing said with a smile. "If there's anything you don't understand, just come to me."

"Alright, thank you, Instructor Xing," Li Yuan said with a smile. "I'll mention it to Hall Master Wan when I get the chance."

"Haha, thank you," Instructor Xing laughed.

After seeing the instructor off.

Li Yuan returned to martial arts room 7024. Although it was a fully enclosed room, the air was very fresh.

"The matter of my mental power is kept secret. Instructor Xing probably doesn't understand why I could sign a B-level contract," Li Yuan thought to himself. "Maybe he thinks I have some special relationship with Hall Master Wan, so he's being very cautious."

Otherwise, as the chief instructor of the entire Guanshan branch, second only to the main and deputy hall masters.

Why be so polite to a high school student?

Suddenly.

"Beep—" The doorbell rang, and the display at the door showed the scene outside.

It was a delivery robot, the meal Li Yuan had ordered ten minutes ago.

After taking the meal, Li Yuan went to the table at the end of the martial arts room and started eating.

"I'm really hungry."

Li Yuan ate heartily. "Two nutritious meals for only 40 points? But better than the 50 Blue Star Coin meals at school."

"Instructor Xing wasn't wrong. Points are more useful than equivalent Blue Star Coins in many things."

After eating.

Li Yuan didn't rush to cultivate but used the advanced virtual network pod in the martial arts room.

He entered the virtual world.

"Enter Starlight Space," Li Yuan's consciousness connected and directly issued the command.

Buzz~ The space transformed.

"Honorable L3 member, welcome to Starlight Space. I am your exclusive AI..." A pleasant voice rang out.

"Change the housekeeper's name to 'Little Jade' with the appearance of an ancient girl," Li Yuan said directly.

"Yes." A girl in purple appeared in front of Li Yuan. "Little Jade at your service."

Li Yuan ignored her and checked the virtual space he had just received permission to enter.

Starlight Space was the 'exclusive space' of Starlight Martial Hall.

Only Starlight Martial Hall members and members could enter.

"My Starlight level." Li Yuan's gaze fell on the side panel:

Name: Li Yuan (ID 2042100806492)

Affiliation: China—Jiangbei Province—Jiang City

Level: L3

Points: 2,499,960.15

Training Points: 2,800,000

"250,000 points, of which 150,000 points are provided by the B-level contract, and another 100,000 points are sponsored by Hall Master Wan," Li Yuan thought.

Through checking the user manual and combining it with Instructor Xing's previous introduction, Li Yuan quickly understood.

Points are essentially the internal currency of Starlight Martial Hall, used to purchase various items and services.

From various auxiliary cultivation treasures such as basic qi and blood potions, first-order qi and blood potions, spirit-nurturing potions, source force elixirs... to various precious weapons, martial arts manuals, source force manuals, and so on.

These are for martial arts cultivation.

For daily life, such as financial management, renting or buying villas, buying luxury cars, private airplanes, yachts, legal representation, daily necessities, hospital bed priority... anything involving daily life, the Martial Hall can help solve it.

Provided that one is willing to spend enough points.

"Points are indeed more useful than money in many things," Li Yuan thought.

Today's experience had a significant impact on him, truly broadening his horizons.

It gave him a preliminary glimpse into... the world of martial artists.

"One way to earn points is through employment, holding a position in the Martial Hall, receiving a monthly salary," Li Yuan thought. "The second way is by completing various tasks of the Martial Hall, such as going to the astral realms..."

Li Yuan only glanced briefly and didn't focus on the ways to earn points.

For now, it had nothing to do with him.

"A little guy with a physical fitness of just level 7, earning points?"

"I'm just a preparatory member, not a formal member."

"The Martial Hall brought me here to spend money."

"What I need to do now," Li Yuan's eyes glowed, "is to use the points and money given by the Martial Hall."

"Improve my family and... enhance my strength," Li Yuan's eyes glowed. "Work hard to get into one of the top five prestigious schools and become a martial artist."
