CHAPTER 495: KILLING VS CONTRIBUTION LIST.

The program that the sect established to encourage their disciples involves tallying the amount of contribution points that everyone has earned and estimating their fighting prowess based on the beasts they killed.

This information is used to create a ranking list. Then the people on the list are rewarded based on their performance.

There are two ranking lists. One is the contribution list, while the other is the killing list. Both lists require everyone to achieve a minimum amount of points before their names can be added to the list.

The minimum requirement for the contribution list is also the amount needed for rent. So those who don’t meet this minimum requirement and whose names don’t appear on the list will be asked to leave the secret realm.

The same will happen to those whose name doesn’t enter the killing list. If his name doesn’t appear on it in a period of ten years, the sect will force him to do something to change that or be kicked out of the secret realm.

So being on the two lists is a must if one is to enjoy the benefits of a rank 4 secret realm. But those who rank at the top of the list get rewarded for doing more than the bare minimum and standing out above their peers.

All of this means that the matter of rent and the need to prove fighting prowess have been made as fair as possible. So he shouldn’t have any reason to complain.

He chuckled to himself and said, "Even if I have reasons to complain, I don’t have a choice in the matter."

Actually, he should be glad to be mandated with these requirements because there are many people outside the sect who will be willing to pay rent and prove that they can but don’t have the opportunity to.

Staying in the secret realm is a blessing. Besides that, the contribution points he earns from sect missions are for him to use, and it is also a good thing that he can fight.

So if he ignores all of these and still decides to complain about the two requirements, then nothing can be done about it. He must leave the sect and find a secret realm outside the sect where he doesn’t have to sacrifice or do anything to stay in.

He chuckled even more when he thought of this and said, "Good luck with that."

He truly believes that anyone who believes that they are better off outside the sect than staying in the sect and paying rent will need a lot of good luck.

He believes that they will need that good luck to survive since they don’t have the intelligence and common sense needed to survive.

He is also sure he is not alone in this belief. He is so sure about this that he is willing to bet that the 25 cultivation families will agree with him.

He was thinking about this when Roar came to meet him.

Roar came as a shooting star. He was bright and flashy. He was also in a good mood.

His mood was a little too good. He was practically bouncing around with energy and excitement.

He said, "This place is too good. The air is very nice. There are also many things to play with."

Even when he had something bad to say, he was still upbeat. His eyes were shining and he was full of excitement as he said, "I met an ant. It was a giant ant. It tried to kill me. It had large mouth parts that it snapped at me. It even got my foot."

He showed Arthur the cut in his foot. The place was bleeding bright golden blood.

Roar asked him, "Can you see it?"

"See how bad it is. It cut me to the bone. If I had been a little late, it would have cut off my foot."

Arthur raised an eyebrow in surprise. He was both surprised by the injury and Roar’s upbeat attitude towards it.

He has seen people who are always cheerful and happy before. Jason of the Dyson family comes to his mind. But in the case of Roar, he wasn’t sure why Roar was so upbeat.

He suspects that Roar is being affected by his foundation. A foundation built with the light element usually makes people bright and sunny.

But Roar also has other reasons to be so happy all the time. The second source of his happiness could also be the fact that he has childlike intelligence and still retains the childlike wonder, curiousity and optimism.

There is also the fact that Roar is a dog and dogs are usually carefree. Roar’s identity as a dog might also the why he is so excited even though something had nearly sheared his foot off.

Arthur thought to himself in amusement, "Or it could be all three of them. That would make for a terrifying combination of happiness."

Then he patted Roar and said, "Don’t mind the ant. Let me see if I can arrange to have revenge for you."

Roar began to shake with excitement at the prospect of revenge. He said, "Yippee. I can’t wait."

His good mood was truly infectious. Arthur couldn’t help but smile as he got onto Roar’s back.

Once he had climbed onto Roar, the dog yelled excitedly, "Let’s gooooo!"

Then Roar took off in the direction of the mission hall. He flew through the air like a bright comet entering the atmosphere.

The two of them reached their destination quickly. The registration process was also done very quickly.

The sect ID made everything in the sect easier for everyone. All he needed to do to register was be in the mission hall with his ID card. Everything else could be done with the ID card.

He perused the list of missions and checked their descriptions. He did this for a while before he made his decision. After all, he didn’t want to be stuck with something he couldn’t do because he rushed to make a decision.
