Today's Academy classes were over, and Shai Yang was now in the Guild Contribution Hall in order to obtain benefits.
He currently spent 18 Primitive Stones per month to feed his Gu. The Wisdom Obstacle Gu consumed Blue Honey as food, it was a difficult material to obtain in Yu She Mountain, making its price more expensive, costing 10 Primitive Stones per month plus 8 to feed the Level 1 Inspiring Thought Gu.
Another thing he needed to do was use Primitive Stones to cultivate, he currently consumed 32 Primitive Stones to replenish his Aperture.
Lastly the Gu of Vajra Thought and Inspiring Thought were Level 1, they needed to be raised to Level 2, but for that you had to buy the refinement materials, which cost Primitive Stones.
At the entrance the guards stopped Shai Yang.
"What do you want here?"
"I have something to contribute to the Clan."
"It's okay to come in."
When Shai Yang entered he saw that the hall was not very large, and that the rest of the building was probably used for storage.
He quickly spoke to the beautiful receptionist, who was also a Level 2 Gu Master.
"I created a recipe for a Gu, I would like to contribute it to the Clan."
"Did you create a Gu recipe??"
"Yes."
"Are you sure, if you're lying you'll pay dearly for this."
"So which Worm Gu did you 'create'?"
Shai Yang was annoyed by the receptionist's disdain but ignored it and continued.
"I want to report directly to the Elder in charge of the contribution hall."
"What??? Only very special recipes could be reported to Elder Hu!"
Shai Yang sighed and then replied.
"I created a recipe for the Level 2 Liquor Worm."
"What?? You're not lying are you?"
"Since you don't show interest in my recipe I'll sell it to some store, I bet they'll be interested."
Shai Yang said this as he turned to leave.
"Wait! I'll inform the Elder."
The attendant returned five minutes later.
"Elder Hu will receive you, please accompany me."
They followed through a side door that led to a hallway. There were several doors in this hallway, but the attendant didn't stop until she reached the last one.
"Please come in."
"So it's Shai Yang."
Shai Hu's words entered Shai Yang's ears the moment he stepped into the room.
"Yes Elder."
"Please sit."
This was the first time Shai Yang had seen Shai Hu, but Shai Yang was the number one genius of Clan Shai, naturally Shai Hu knew his looks.
He was over fifty with a short beard and wrinkled eyes, as well as a Level 3 crop.
"So you actually created a Level 2 Liquor Worm do Gu recipe?"
"Yes Elder, although I haven't been able to test it because I don't have the materials I believe there are no errors in it."
"Well then let me see the recipe.
Shai Yang took out a paper with the recipe.
"This is a very simple recipe, two Level 1 Liquor Worms and four flavors of wine."
"I will pass this on to Elder Lao, he is in charge of the Hall of Refinement. You can come back tomorrow for your answer."

The next day

When Shai Yang entered Elder Hu's room, she saw that he was not alone.
"Shai Yang this is Elder Lao of the Hall of Refinement."
"Greetings Elder Lao."
"Shai Yang, Elder Lao tested his recipe and it was right, thanks to that you will receive your own Four Flavor Lico Worm as well as 20,000 Primitive Stones."
"However, since you're still in the academy, if you receive this amount of Primitive Stones, the distance between you and the other students would increase a lot, so you'll only receive 1000 Primitive Stones now, and the rest after you graduate."
"Yes Elder."
"Besides, Elder Lao has a request but I'll let him explain it himself."
"Well Shai Yang, creating a recipe like that at your age shows that you have talent in the Path of Refinement, so I would like you to become my disciple and learn about Gu's Refinement."
Shai Yang was surprised, initially he intended to ask Elder Lao to accept him as a disciple, but thinking that the Elder himself would invite him.
"It will be an honor to Elder Lao."
