The three of them walked to the counter and saw a slightly thin young man inside, he squinted his eyes and legs on the countertop, his upper body was leaning on the chair, the two front legs of the chair under him were suspended by force, all supported by the two hind legs, and his body was shaking with the chair, and the whole person looked lazy.

"Excuse me, the three of us are going to join the Guwu Alliance. ”

"The selection meeting of this Gutai City is not over yet, why are there newcomers so soon?" The young man heard Mu Yang's voice, half-opened his eyes and glanced at it, and after muttering a word, he sat up straight.

"Each of you will hand over a lower grade yuan stone. ”

Mu Yang, who had already known the rules from the shopkeeper Meng, took out three lower-grade yuan stones from his arms and put them on the counter, the young man opened a grid on the counter, put the three lower-grade yuan stones inside, and took out three tokens and a book from it and put them on the counter.

"Na, this is the ebony token that represents your identity, leave your respective soul power imprint and keep it, now you are a peripheral member of the Ancient Martial Alliance, welcome to join the Ancient Martial Alliance. ”

Although the young man said welcome, his tone was extremely perfunctory, and such an attitude couldn't help but make the three of Muyang look at each other, and they were extremely helpless.

"Don't you need to record our information, and what should we pay attention to?" Mu Yang, who didn't know what to do, couldn't help but ask.

"Record your information? Heh, joke, since you can come here, don't you know that the Guwu League has always recognized the cards and not people for the peripheral members? Okay, okay, you will know after reading the booklet, don't disturb me to rest. ”

The young man sneered, with a look of disgust like a fly, shook his hand at Muyang and them, and then tilted his legs on the counter, closed his eyes and continued the posture just now.

Such an attitude naturally made the three of Muyang very unhappy, but they couldn't attack here, so they could only suppress their anger, put away the tokens and books on the counter, and retreated to the side to take a closer look.

The three ebony tokens are the same style, the whole body is made of very common ebony wood, the whole piece is about the size of an adult's palm regular rectangle, the front is engraved with the "ancient martial arts" three dragon flying phoenix dance big characters, the back is engraved with a line of small characters, on the book "ancient Taicheng League".

In addition to these words, there are strange notches on the tokens that are straight, curved, crooked, or curled into a swirl, and these notches are all interrupted after extending to the very edge of the token, and they found that the notches on the front of the three tokens are exactly the same, but the notches on the reverse are more or less slightly different.

Mo Xiaoqi, who had been staring at these nicks thoughtfully, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he leaned over to Mu Yang and Zhao Yuanbai and whispered: "Brother Yang, Xiaobai, if you guess correctly, those nicks on this token should belong to a small part of a certain high-grade formation. ”

"Array patterns, isn't it like the carvings on those array plates made by fat people?" Zhao Yuanbai asked.

"The carvings of those array disks can only be regarded as pseudo-formations, and the ones on this token should be the real formations!" Mo Xiaoqi said with a determined tone.

"Don't speculate yet, just look at the booklet. ”

Mu Yang interrupted the conversation between the two, picked up the booklet and flipped through it, and Zhao Yuanbai and Mo Xiaoqi also leaned their heads over.

After reading the entire book carefully, combined with what Shopkeeper Meng said, they had a basic understanding of the situation of the entire Guwu League.

First of all, because the Gu Wu League takes measures to recognize the cards and not recognize the people of the peripheral members, it basically will not come forward to ask about the affairs of these peripheral members, but because of the contribution value obtained by each other, they can be exchanged between the ancient warriors at will, so the circle of the peripheral members is the most chaotic, bloody and dark.

Except for those who are slightly better off their backs to sect families, those who are casual cultivators of ancient martial arts have no background identity to rely on, so it is common for other peripheral members who are cultivated to be higher to snatch away their contribution points.

If you are lucky, you will only be taken away from a part of the contribution value that you have worked so hard for, and if you are unlucky, you will start from scratch, and even if you encounter a ruthless person, you can't even save your life, and if the peripheral members are bullied by outsiders, the Guwu League will not come forward to protect them.

If you want to change this embarrassing situation, you have only two options.

Either you have to fight with your life, relying on your own efforts and a certain amount of luck, you can get enough contribution points and be promoted to a full member recognized and protected by the Ancient Martial League, so that you can get better cultivation resources, or you can quit the Ancient Martial Arts League and find a place to settle down and concentrate on cultivation, as for how much you can achieve, it all depends on chance.

The next step is on the contribution value.

The only way for peripheral members to obtain the contribution points within the Guwu Alliance is to take and complete the various tasks issued by the General Affairs Hall, and of course, there is a method that is not on the surface, and that is to forcibly seize the contribution points of other members. As for whether there is another way to become a full member, it is not said above, so Muyang and they are not clear.

All the tasks in the Ancient Martial Arts League are issued by various sect families and within the Ancient Martial Arts League, and the types of tasks are naturally varied and strange, so they are divided into nine levels according to the difficulty of the task, of which one star is the lowest, nine stars are the highest, and the higher the star level of the task, the more contribution points can be obtained.

However, because of the fear that some members of the alliance will be too ambitious and take on tasks indiscriminately, it is limited to peripheral members who can only receive tasks of three stars and below, and formal members can receive tasks of six stars and below, and core members can choose at will.

Each time a member of the alliance receives a mission, they will receive a special jade slip about the mission, which will be returned as a token along with the quest after completing the task.

And after each task, you must complete it before you can take on other tasks, many tasks also have a time limit, if it is overdue, it will be regarded as a failure, and once the task fails, a certain amount of contribution value will be deducted, which also makes each member less casual when choosing a task.

As for the use of contribution points, there are two main uses, one is to promote the status of the alliance, and the other is to exchange for various items needed for the cultivation of ancient warriors such as yuan stones, pills, ancient weapons, spiritual materials, and even exercises, ancient martial arts, etc.

If the contribution value of this ancient martial alliance is converted into a lower-grade yuan stone, the ratio between them is equal, to put it bluntly, a little contribution value is equivalent to a lower-grade yuan stone.

Upgrading from Ebony Token to Cold Iron Token requires 200 contribution points, from Cold Iron Token to Blood Copper Token requires 500 contribution points, and from Blood Copper Token to Ryuhin Token, it requires 1,000 contribution points, and each time a member is promoted, the corresponding contribution value will be deducted, and then the identity token will be replaced.

In this way, even if you don't need any contribution points, you need to save a full 1,700 contribution points before you can be promoted from a peripheral member who has just joined the alliance to a full member.

If converted into Yuan Stone, it is equivalent to 1,700 lower-grade Yuan Stone, which is tantamount to an astronomical amount for an ancient martial artist with an air-inducing mirror.

Therefore, if they want to become a full member, unless they encounter a big opportunity, they must go through a lot of hardships to have such a bright future, and not everyone can succeed, and countless people have died on the way.

The status level of each member is different, and the various items that can be exchanged are also limited.

Peripheral members can only exchange for various cultivation items of the mortal rank within the alliance, including exercises and ancient martial arts, which are just some extremely ordinary goods, and formal members can exchange for treasure-level items, and those exercises and ancient martial arts that can be exchanged are naturally much more advanced. As for the core members, as long as you have enough contribution points, then as long as they are items in the Ancient Martial Alliance, you can exchange them at will.

Among the peripheral members, the person who holds the Ebony Token is the lowest level, and there is no preferential treatment in the alliance, except for the name of a peripheral member of the Ancient Martial Alliance, and it is no different from those scattered ancient martial artists who have no sect and no sect.

In addition to the right of first refusal over the Ebony Token holders, they can also get a layer of discounts when exchanging for items of all grades in the alliance, such as items with a price tag of ten contribution points, which they only need to pay nine contribution points to exchange.

In addition to the above benefits, those who own Blood Copper Tokens are also eligible to participate in the small auctions held regularly by the Treasure Cabinet, where treasure-level items appear from time to time, and if you are lucky, you may be able to auction treasure-level items for a small price.

However, in order to prevent members of the alliance from using high-level identity tokens to exchange items in the alliance for reselling them outside and obtaining benefits from them, the Guwu Alliance also specifically stipulates that the contribution value can be exchanged for Yuanshi, but Yuanshi cannot be exchanged for contribution value.

In this way, when the contribution value of the members of the alliance is used up, even if you have a high-level identity token and no matter how many yuan stones you have, you will not be able to exchange for various items in the alliance.

However, it is not explained in this book how much contribution value is required to be promoted to a higher level of identity tokens such as Xuanjin, and what is the preferential treatment for them in the alliance, so Muyang and they don't know either, and it is estimated that they will have to become official members to know.

As for the main hall, which belongs to the activity area of the peripheral members, it is also explained in detail in the booklet.

First of all, there is no need to talk about this life and death platform, Mu Yang already knows its role from the shopkeeper Meng, but for the peripheral members, this life and death platform is actually a decoration, and there is no role at all.

The lounge area is a place for members to take a short break and interact with each other, and the curved counter is a task desk for receiving new members and issuing tasks.

It is worth mentioning that the people in charge of the reception are actually one of the peripheral members, and the reason why they are there is is actually doing the simplest, most boring, and safest reception task in the Guwu Alliance.

By doing this task, you can get five contribution points every year, but each person can only do it for a maximum of four years, so that you can get twenty contribution points safely and securely, and you can exchange these twenty contribution points for one piece in the alliance, which is enough to break through the defense of most second-order middle-grade desolate beasts, or resist the attacks of most second-order mid-grade desolate beasts.

This is also the only humanized benefit for those newcomers who have just joined the alliance and do not have enough strength to complete the task.

As for the closed rooms, they are used to verify the completion of the task and distribute contribution points, as well as the place to buy and sell various intelligence information, so these rooms will be made, once they enter the room, the people outside have no idea what others are doing inside, so as to protect the privacy of the members of the alliance

Each room has a special formation, when a member completes the task, they can enter those rooms, there is a groove between the wall and the floor of the room, the groove on the wall is used to place the identity token, and the groove on the ground is to place the mission item and the mission jade slip.

As soon as the token is placed in the recess on the wall, the formation will activate immediately, and the items on the ground will disappear, and after a few moments, you will get a response. If the mission is successful, because the identity token has a soul power brand, it will naturally be able to sense that the contribution value in it will be increased, otherwise, the contribution will be deducted.

When it comes to buying and selling intelligence information, it's pretty much the same thing.

When you want to buy and sell information, after placing the identity token, engrave the information you want to buy or sell on a jade slip with soul power.

Place the jade slip into the groove in the ground and wait for a while to get a corresponding response.

At this point, Muyang and the three of them basically figured out the whole situation, closed the book, and the three of them walked towards the rest area where Han Yi was.
