Chapter 2657: What Merits Could One Gain by Scheming Within a Courtyard?

Ning Shu looked at the rewards. They were quite good: 8 million points and 80 attribute points. As for the 2000 faith points, those were accumulated from the previous worlds. Merit points were nada.

After all, merit points were not easy to obtain, and besides, what merits could one gain by scheming within a courtyard?

It was just a pity that women could not step out of their homes. If those women in the inner courtyard were placed in modern times, they would definitely be the smartest and most cunning career-women, living bright and beautiful lives.

Wearing fashionable clothes, applying beautiful makeup, turning heads, and exuding beauty and confidence.

Ning Shu allocated the attribute points. This time, there were quite a few attribute points, so Ning Shu whimsically added points to all the attributes.

Ning Shu closed the stats panel and sat cross-legged on the sofa, beginning her cultivation, absorbing the pure soul power within the space.

After finishing her cultivation, Ning Shu asked 2333, “I feel like there’s more soul power this time compared to last time. Is it the soul power of those eliminated task-takers?”

“Perhaps, but it’s most likely just your imagination. Although the soul power of intermediate and advanced task-takers is strong, there’s hardly any distributed to you,” 2333 replied.

Ning Shu’s eyes whirled. “The ones cleared this time were intermediate and advanced task-takers?”

“They’re okay with even firing advanced task-takers?” Ning Shu expressed her astonishment.

To become an advanced task-taker, they must have experienced many worlds, yet they were still eliminated at the drop of a hat?

How could the higher-ups bear to part with such valuable resources?

“Some advanced task-takers were indeed erased, but mostly it was the intermediate task-takers,” 2333 replied, “Luckily, we’re safe this time, otherwise you would have become pure soul power.”

Ning Shu: →_→

Damn it. She really thought that she wouldn’t have anything left to fear now that she had the talismans, but then something like this happened.

It really felt terrible when your life was in the hands of others.

She had to build her own world as soon as possible! But she still had to get her hands on more world origins…

Ning Shu sighed. She had to work harder.
