After the excitement, Lin Yi chose to display his titles. As he opened the panel, he found there were more details, even his cultivation levels and the progress of his spells were displayed.
[Name:Lin Yi]
[Title:Junior Survivor;Little Farmer;Level Grinding Novice]
[Current Effects:Hatred Value -5%, Presence -5%, Cultivation Speed +20%…]
[Cultivation Levels:Qi Refining Three Layer(50/300]
[Cultivation Technique:Creation Method]

Cloud Rain Technique (Beginner) 89/100
Earth Spirit Thorn (Beginner) 33/100
Looking at the three spells he had, Lin Yi felt like crying. The original occupant was really poor. As a Loose Cultivator, he couldn’t afford any strong spells.
From the proficiency of the skills, it was probably decided to focus on practicing the Metal Finger and the Cloud Rain Technique, and to farm in the Outer Sect of Liu Yun Sect.
But the difficulty of farming was tough. It was so naive thinking of it.
Apart from the two farming practices, the remainder was the attack spell, Earth Spirit Thorn. From this, it could be said that the original owner was not very smart. Despite being so poor and the Cultivation World being so ruthless, he still bought attack spells. Shouldn’t he have bought some life-saving spells?
Despite criticizing him internally, looking at the progress of his cultivation level and spells did bring him some joy. Regardless of the situation, as long as there is a progress bar, there is visible hope because progress is tangible.
Lin Yi looked at the title column on the panel and found that the two titles he received today also had progress bars and could be upgraded. If he kept doing something repeatedly, he would gain title experience. So, what he should do now is to continue to cultivate and increase the title of Level Grinding Novice, even if the spiritual energy around him is very scarce.
He sat cross-legged on the bed and began to cultivate with the Creation Method. However, almost an hour passed and the progress bar of Level Grinding Novice was still at zero. He chose to continue cultivation.
Six hours later, Lin Yi saw that the progress of the Level Grinding Novice title was still zero. He had to give up cultivation. It seemed that cultivating in an area without strong spiritual energy was futile and could not provide any title experience.
It seemed that he could only wait until tomorrow to cultivate while eating Spirit Rice and verify the speed of gaining title experience.
Lying on the bed and reminiscing about what had happened during this time, he felt that the Steward named Zhang Yuan Cheng seemed to be targeting him, or rather, some of the new Spirit Farmers.
He concentrated and sorted through the memory of the original owner. He realized that although the Liu Yun Sect claimed to recruit Outer Sect Disciples through regular lottery, most of these quotas required bribes to obtain.
Just like cultivating a Spiritual Field, the Outer Sect only had a limited number of spiritual fields. Only when Spirit Farmers were vacant, would there be spots available. The faster the vacancy rate, the higher the bribes the Loose Cultivators had to pay.
Lin Yi suddenly understood why Zhang Yuan Cheng targeted him. It was because the original owner seemed like an honest person who only knew how to cultivate. Therefore, he coaxed him into taking twenty acres of Spiritual Field. Such that when the original owner couldn’t keep up, he would either leave or be exhausted from cultivating and be expelled. Then, the Spiritual Field could be vacant.
The vacant Spiritual Field could be reintroduced into the market, and Loose Cultivators could bribe with Spirit Stones for the lottery qualification for the Spiritual Field. No wonder he was so targeted. His constant stay, while the Spiritual Field couldn’t be quickly vacated for resale, was akin to blocking others’ source of income.
He estimated that Steward Zhang was also surprised that he rented twenty acres but could persist till now. If he had not traversed here, the original owner would have essentially died, and Steward Zhang’s scheme would have succeeded.
Moreover, once he traversed here and understood the difficulties in cultivating twenty acres of Spiritual Field, he went to seek advice from Old Huang nearby. He found out that the Spiritual Field could be transferred, but it had to go through a Spiritual Field Manager.
When he sought out Zhang Yuan Cheng, he was told to cultivate for a full year, wait until harvest, and only then could transfer take place. The status of an Outer Sect Disciple was very low, and he had nowhere to complain.
As for seeking help in farming, the cost was also high. In the end, he probably ended up incurring a loss.
However, fortunately, the Liu Yun Sect’s law was strict. If there were life and death disputes between the same sect, they could be resolved through arena combats. Privately killing a Disciple was a serious crime, and the Law Hall would definitely investigate thoroughly. That was why Zhang Yuan Cheng only made minor maneuvers and did not act privately.
The good news was that with the Golden Finger, the bleak cultivation life had hope. Lin Yi decided to keep a low profile, guard the Spiritual Field, and steadily cultivate as a Junior Survivor.
With the Golden Finger, his cultivation level and spells could quickly improve, and cultivating twenty acres of Spiritual Field wouldn’t be so difficult anymore.
As for the targeting by Steward Zhang, he also had to remain vigilant at all times and think of ways to get rid of it.
The next early morning, he got up early and started to work in the Spiritual Field. Weeding and pest control services, the abundance of nutrients in the Spiritual Field, provided conditions for the growth of weeds. Insects were attracted by the Spirit Rice. Basically, it needed to be looked after every day. If not managed for three to four days, the whole Spiritual Field’s yield would decrease.
While managing the Spiritual Field, he was surprised to find that each time a spell was used, the proficiency increased by 1 point. This was equivalent to experience, and leveling up was as simple as a game.freew(e)bnovel.com
