Chapter 152: Chapter 129: Zhang Lei’s Invitation, A Way to Earn a Large Number of Credits!

"Tutor Gumo is truly a top-tier Martial Artist of the Seventh Rank. Just one lecture has significantly boosted my progress, and my Basic Martial Arts Mastery has increased by two levels!"

Looking at the skyrocketing progress on the panel, Lu Sheng couldn’t help but express his admiration.

Then, Lu Sheng exited the Void Star Realm. When he glanced at the time displayed on his bracelet, he was stunned.

"This lecture lasted for a whole day and night? I didn’t even notice, completely immersed in Tutor Gumo’s teachings."

Lu Sheng was astonished.

"Incredible. Is this the charm of a Seventh Rank Divine Soul Martial Artist?"

Lu Sheng shook his head, still greatly surprised.

"If I keep listening to Tutor Gumo’s lectures at this pace, I could master Planet Level knowledge within a month!"

The improvement was astonishing. Even with taking Life Essence Liquid and purchasing Immortal Technique courses, it usually took ten days to increase his progress by fifteen points.

Yet, after listening to Gumo’s lecture for just one day and night, his progress increased by fifteen points, and this was just on the basis of Gumo explaining some basic martial arts knowledge.

"What a pity. Tutor Gumo’s courses are rare and only happen once every ten years. If I want to attend another lecture, I’d either have to spend a lot of academic credits or wait ten years."

Lu Sheng said regretfully.

Then he sat cross-legged on his bed to consolidate the day’s gains.

After about half an hour, Lu Sheng reopened his eyes, and his aura became much more restrained.

Just as Lu Sheng got up from the bed to stretch, he heard a notification sound from his communication bracelet.

Looking closely, he saw it was a communication from Senior Brother Zhang Lei, whom he worked with on a mission with Du Bai previously.

Although he wasn’t sure what Zhang Lei wanted, Lu Sheng decided to answer.

Instantly, Zhang Lei’s figure appeared before Lu Sheng.

"Junior Lu, I believe you gained a lot from Tutor Gumo’s lecture!"

Zhang Lei said with a smile.

Lu Sheng nodded slightly, waiting for Zhang Lei to continue.

Sure enough, Zhang Lei went on: "Junior Lu, Senior Sister Mu Qingqing and I have accepted an escort mission for a trading team and we happen to be short of one person. I wanted to check if you have time to join us for this task."

Listening to Zhang Lei, Lu Sheng was somewhat surprised, and then asked: "Senior Brother Zhang, may I ask which trading team we are escorting?"

Zhang Lei didn’t hide anything and said: "The task number is 01958. You can search it on the Life Factions’ network for the details. Let me know if you’re interested."

Lu Sheng nodded and then ended the call. He searched the task number on the internal network of Life Factions, and quickly the mission details popped up along with the required number of students.

"Fourth Rank basic task: Escort the Cyan Wood Trading Team on Cyan Wood Star, and deliver the resource ’Cyan Spirit Wood’ to Lab No. 3."

"Mission duration: Three days!"

"Task requirements: One late-stage Fourth Rank Martial Artist leading, up to five students allowed."

Looking at this task information, Lu Sheng was slightly surprised.

"They’re escorting ’Cyan Spirit Wood’! No wonder they need a late-stage Fourth Rank Martial Artist to lead."

’Cyan Spirit Wood’ is a rare resource, and Cyan Wood Star is rich in this material. Furthermore, ’Cyan Spirit Wood’ is a crucial resource for the special Giant Divine Soldier crafted by Life Factions.

That was why Lu Sheng was a bit surprised.

"Within Life Factions, escorting trading teams and clearing Vine Insects off Heaven-Reaching Vines are basic Fourth Rank tasks. Although these require Fourth Rank Martial Artists, their difficulty isn’t very high and serve as a support to students."

"Since the difficulty isn’t high, I might as well give it a shot, especially since I really need academic credits right now."

Lu Sheng said, then called Zhang Lei back.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I’ll give it a try."

Lu Sheng said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lei smiled slightly: "That’s great. With you on board, our team’s strength has gone up a notch."

"I believe you live on Wuling Star, right? Senior Sister Mu Qingqing and I are also on Wuling Star. You can meet us at the space station outside Wuling Star, and we can find the late-stage Fourth Rank leader together."

Having said that, Zhang Lei sent Lu Sheng a set of coordinates.

Lu Sheng nodded and ended the call, leaving his residence and arriving at the open space where the Heaven-Reaching Ship was parked. He entered the coordinates.

"What a pity. The Heaven-Reaching Ship is only at the basic level and hasn’t been upgraded to Planet Level. Otherwise, it could reduce its size and be stored within the Five Elements Mini World."

Lu Sheng said with a smile, then looked at the large screen of the Heaven-Reaching Ship, which displayed an image of a smiling robot.

"From now on, you shall be called Noel!"

"Yes, Master!"

The smiling face on Noel’s screen became even brighter.

After Lu Sheng sat down, the Heaven-Reaching Ship transformed into a long rainbow and flew towards the space station.

It didn’t take long for Lu Sheng to find Zhang Lei and Mu Qingqing.

"Nice to see you again!"

Zhang Lei waved at Lu Sheng with a smile, and Mu Qingqing also gave him a sweet smile.

"Hello, Senior Brother, Senior Sister."

Lu Sheng responded with a smile.

"We just got news that the late-stage Fourth Rank leader will join us soon. Let’s wait here."

Zhang Lei said, glancing at the message on his bracelet.

Lu Sheng nodded and then began chatting with Zhang Lei and Mu Qingqing.

"Senior Brother, are there any Fourth Rank basic tasks within Life Factions that reward more academic credits?"

When asking this, Lu Sheng was quite hopeful. Whether it’s clearing Vine Insects or escorting trading teams, these tasks seemed easy for him but offered too few academic credits.

This escort mission, plus the previous task of clearing Vine Insects, yielded just enough credits for Lu Sheng to buy a Life and Death Fruit or a bottle of Life Essence Liquid.

It’s really not much!

Looking at each other, Zhang Lei and Mu Qingqing then heard Zhang Lei say: "The tasks we’re taking now are basic missions within Life Factions. To earn a lot of credits, you need to take on missions outside Life Factions or frontline tasks issued by Star River University."

"But these missions are far from basic, with high difficulty and potential life threats. Of course, if you can complete them, the rewards will be substantial!"

Listening to Zhang Lei, Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat tempted.
