Zhao Fao ignored the fancy decour of the private suite as he entered the room and focused on the series of system notifications in his mind instead.
[Ding! Demo System Mission Completion Notification]
[Mission Performance Evaluation: Flawless]
[Rewards Unlocked: One Spirit Cleansing Fruit, Young Master Aura, 1000 System Points (Exchangeable), Two Burst Escape Talismans]
[Ding! Stats panel has been unlocked!]
[Ding! Demo Exchange shop has been activated and is now available!]
Zhao Bao massaged his temples as he communicated with the system in his mind, "What is this evaluation rank of flawlesss and how is it useful?"
[Missions are graded as Pass, Excellent, Flawless or Godly upon completion. The rank influences the quality of reward received by the host. For example, the main reward was raised to a thousand-years-old fruit from the initial decade-old-fruit. As such, the efficacy upon consumption is far stronger.]
Zhao Fao nodded and asked the rest of his questions at once.
What were the Young Master Aura and Escape Talismans?
What was the use of the exchange points?
[Upon assimilating Young Master Aura, the host will receive a permanent enhancement in the following skills; Social Magnetism(+15%), Charismatic Influence(+10%), Social Dominance(+5%), Prestige Recognition(+5%), Effortless Opportunities(10%), Favorable Circumstances(+10%)]
[Burst Escape Talismans: Can teleport the user instatenously to anywhere within five hundred metres]
[Exchange Points can be used to purchase items in the exchange shop. For now, the stocked items have rewards already gained by the host]
After some more questions, Zhao Fao finally understood.
The Exchange Shop put up items he had already received as rewards for sale.
If he wanted another Spirit Cleansing Fruit or Burst Talisman, he could purchase them directly from the exchange shop.
Even the Young Master Aura was on sale and equal to a doubled enhancement upon purchase.
He would unlock more items in the Exchange Shop in the future. It was just that these items were quite expensive.
For example, the Burst Escape Talismans were 500 Exchange Points each.
Young Master Aura enhancement was priced at 1000 Exchange Points.
And the Spirit Cleansing Fruit was a staggering 1000 Exchange Points for one of a hundred years and 10,000 Exchange Points for one of a thousand-years root age.
These prices.....
He could barely afford them.
Zhao Fao assimilated Young Master Aura gingerly.
He felt a cool sensation rush through his entire body.
And that was it.
His gaze fell to the Spirit Cleansing Fruit.
Compared to the esoteric aura boost, he was more interested in this reward.
The fruit looked exactly like a mini tangerine fruit.
It had an appealing fragrance too.
Zhao Fao retrieved it from the system and ate it in a single bite.
The masticated fruit melted in his mouth out of his control and passed into his stomach.
"That's it?" Zhao Fao did not feel anything special happen after a while and began to suspect the fruit was ineffective.
[The Spirit Cleansing Fruit takes a while to take effect. Please wait a bit longer]
Zhao Fao's suspicion of the reward being a counterfeit grew stronger.
The system said a silent prayer. The host wouldn't be thinking this in a while.
Sure enough, Zhao Fao soon felt his stomach rumble and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Shit!
Thirty minutes later, he rushed out of the toilet as quickly as he rushed into it.
He pinched his nostrils close with two fingers...
His face was flushed red.
He was sweating profusely!
"I've never felt so much pity for a water closet before!"
Zhao Fao hadn't expected that the legendary Spirit Cleansing Fruit would work by inducing a strong bout of defecation.
It was a hot shit galore!
The foul stench in the room....
Zhao Fao turned on the ventilation system to the maximum and used up all the air fresheners.
He took a bath twice.
Then three more times.
"I've never felt so energetic in my life. The Spirit Cleansing Fruit must have passively improved my constitution as it purged the impurities in my body."
Zhao Fao felt a stirring in his heart and instructed the system to display his stats panel.
Host: Zhao Fao
Aptitude: Average
Cultivation: None
Techniques: Basic Fitness Method(Level 1)
Skills: Young Master Aura(Level 1), Pure Spirit Essence Physique(unawakened), Demonic Siphon Essence Rune(??)
Zhao Fao was stunned at the information displayed in his stats panel.
Some of it made sense, like the Level 1 Basic Fitness Method which all high school students trained in preparation for the main exams.
It seemed the Young Master Aura boon was listed as a skill too.
Even though he didn't know what it meant, the fact that he had an unawakened Pure Spirit Essence Physique was a stroke of luck and good news.
But the Demonic Siphon Essence Rune wasn't.
"System, what is this siphon thing?"
[The host has a demonic rune that has been implanted in the body from birth. It is specially designed to restrain the potential of your special physique]
Zhao Fao's eyes flashed coldly.
An implanted demonic rune in his dantian?
In this world, he was only an ordinary kid living in a foster home. There was no reason for anyone to have implanted a demonic rune in his body.
Unless....
"System, what's the Pure Spirit Essence Physique?"
[It is a legendary physique that grants its owner godly, comprehension and insane cultivation. For example, the host's talent would rise to the peak once the physique is awakened]
Zhao Fao's frown deepened.
Sure enough, it was probably related to the origins of this body.
It seemed Little Zhao Fao came from a unique background.
Zhao Fao had already imagined a plot.
A powerful cultivator gave birth to a talented son but his enemies sought to destroy him by planting a negative boon in his body.
Somehow, the young child escaped their sights and entered the foster care system.
Zhao Fao sighed.
Since he was out of the radar, it didn't have anything to do with him anymore.
Hopefully, the system had a way to eliminate the demonic rune.
[Ding! The host can simultaneously awaken the Pure Spirit Essence Physique and eliminate the Demonic Siphon Essence Rune by consuming ten Spirit Cleansing Fruits of thousand-years maturity."
Zhao Fao looked horrified.
He only remembered the tough 'battle' in the toilet not long ago.
If he consumed ten fruits, would he have ten times the experience?
[The host has already achieved basic purging of body impurities. The consequent cleansings will not trigger defecation]
Zhao Fao was moved. Perhaps, he could try it.
It didn't sound so bad anymore.
But there was the problem of insufficient system points. He needed 99,000 more Exchange Points to buy ten Spirit Cleansing Fruits.
How many missions would he have to complete to earn that much?
A hundred? Less?
Just then, the room phone by the bedside buzzed.
Zhao Fao answered the call gingerly.
"Is this Zhao Fao on the line?"
Zhao Fao grunted and asked noncommittally, "What is it?"
As far as he could recall, he didn't request for any room service, right?
The voice was silent for a while before finally replying.
"It's your father!"
