Chapter 20: Joining the Supernatural Administration Bureau

Under normal circumstances,

the registration process for supernatural beings is very tedious.

It requires undergoing a series of official inspections.

To confirm if you truly possess supernatural powers, which supernatural system you belong to, and finally to determine your Rank and specific treatment.

However, there are exceptions to everything.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xu Xi suppressed the Foundation Establishment Yao Beast with one hand; his performance and the pressure he exuded left everyone present dumbfounded.

They were just one step away from gasping and exclaiming how terrifying it was.

And so,

a few minutes later, Xu Xi was respectfully invited to the branch director's office, where someone served him hot tea and mentioned that the branch director would arrive soon.

"It saved a surprising amount of time."

Inside the office, Xu Xi sat on a soft leather guest chair, took a sip of hot tea, and marveled at the situation.

Although he didn't mind following the rules and regulations to register step by step,

if he could skip them directly,

it would naturally be for the best.

After all, no one wanted to waste time.

Xu Xi closed his eyes slightly, recalling the previous situation: "A Foundation Establishment Yao Beast escaped, yet the people from the Administration Bureau couldn't subdue it immediately, and their attitude towards me is very respectful."

"From this, it's not hard to judge that Golden Core Stage, or rather, supernatural beings at the Golden Core Stage level,"

"are still quite rare in the real world."

"At least that's the case in Yanshan City."

After a rough estimation, Xu Xi had a basic understanding of the situation in the real world. Next, he just had to wait for the arrival of the branch director of the Yanshan City Administration Bureau.

After waiting for about ten minutes,

a middle-aged man with a square face hurried in, looking very excited.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Xu!"

"I am Zhang Yaoguo, the director of the Yanshan City Supernatural Administration Bureau."

Facing Zhang Yaoguo's outstretched hand, Xu Xi also stood up and reached out, shaking it politely: "Nice to meet you, Director Zhang, I am Xu Xi."

Seeing that Xu Xi was so gentle and polite,

the middle-aged man's expression softened significantly.

As the branch director of the Supernatural Administration Bureau, over the years, Zhang Yaoguo had seen too many people who were arrogant and overbearing because of their abilities.

Therefore, after hearing that a Golden Core Stage Cultivator had come to the Administration Bureau,

besides being excited, Zhang Yaoguo was also worried about Xu Xi's personality.

Looking at it now,

there was plenty of room for cooperation between the two parties!

"Mr. Xu, please sit," both of them sat down across the dark black office desk.

Director Zhang tried his best to calm his excitement and adopted his usual rigorous and serious work state, saying to Xu Xi: "I have fully understood the details of what happened."

"On behalf of the Yanshan City Administration Bureau, I would like to express my gratitude for Mr. Xu's help."

"Also, I heard that Mr. Xu is planning to join the Administration Bureau?"

"I very much welcome Mr. Xu's joining, but according to regulations, I need to ask some basic questions."

Xu Xi nodded: "I do indeed want to join the Administration Bureau, feel free to ask any questions."

Zhang Yaoguo was overjoyed.

In the five years since the Spiritual Qi recovery, although many strong individuals had emerged domestically, some went to this branch, others to that branch, and finally, the Headquarters in the capital took the lion's share.

There were very few strong individuals left.

This was why the Yanshan Administration Bureau couldn't immediately recapture a mere Foundation Establishment Tiger Demon when it escaped.

It was simply because there was no one available.

If Xu Xi joined the Administration Bureau, with such a Golden Core Cultivator presiding over it, the strength and prestige of the Yanshan Administration Bureau would greatly increase!

Then, Zhang Yaoguo began his questioning.

Zhang Yaoguo: "May I ask how Mr. Xu achieved Awakening?"

Xu Xi: "I was sleeping at home and suddenly received the Legacy of a Cultivator. I achieved a Breakthrough overnight and formed a Golden Core."

Zhang Yaoguo: "Mr. Xu's luck… is truly extraordinary. Does Mr. Xu know the identity of that Cultivator?"

Xu Xi: "I only know they came from a Cultivation Sect called the Heavenly Sword Sect; I'm not clear on anything else."

Zhang Yaoguo: "One last question, could Mr. Xu please demonstrate your Golden Core cultivation?"

Xu Xi: "Of course."

Xu Xi spread his palm, his mana circulating and connecting with the Golden Core inside his body, reflecting and manifesting his Natal Divine Ability.

Strands of Golden Core Qi emanated from his body, shining with brilliant golden light.

There was no need to doubt.

And no way to doubt.

The unique Natal Divine Ability of a Golden Core Immortal Master and the radiant Golden Core Qi from the Golden Core within were enough to prove that Xu Xi was a genuine Golden Core Great Cultivator.

"It really is the Golden Core cultivation!" Director Zhang's joy grew even more.

After witnessing it with his own eyes, the last trace of concern in his heart was dispelled, and he hurriedly discussed the benefits and various matters Xu Xi might face after joining the Administration Bureau.

A base monthly salary of 300,000 huaxia currency, with additional rewards for completing missions or other official cooperation.

Furthermore,

there was an internal shopping website for supernatural beings within the Administration Bureau,

named Supernatural Home.

Only internal Points circulating within the Administration Bureau could be used for transactions.

As a Golden Core Cultivator, Xu Xi received a benefit of 1,000 Points per month, which could be freely traded in the Supernatural Home to exchange for the cultivation resources he wanted.

Similarly, Points could also be used to exchange for information within the Supernatural Home.

In short, it had a wide range of uses.

Xu Xi thought to himself: "Looking at it this way, the cost-effectiveness of one thousand Points in the Supernatural Home is very high, far exceeding the previously mentioned monthly salary of 300,000 huaxia currency."

There were no issues at all; Xu Xi was very satisfied with this.

I provide force.

You provide compensation.

Both parties get what they want; it's a win-win victory.

After symbolically signing the contract and entering his identity information, Xu Xi officially became a member of the Yanshan City Supernatural Administration Bureau, and Zhang Yaoguo's face became visibly more pleasant.

"Hahaha, we are colleagues from now on, Mr. Xu."

Zhang Yaoguo laughed loudly; compared to before, he was now much more amiable, and his gaze towards Xu Xi held a sense of recognition as one of their own.

"With your joining, life in our Yanshan Administration Bureau will be much easier, and we won't need to ask for help from the Headquarters so often."

"The first month's 300,000 huaxia currency and 1,000 Points will be credited to your account soon."

"Also, this is a small token of my personal appreciation."

"Consider it a small return gift for joining the Yanshan Administration Bureau and for stepping in to suppress that Foundation Establishment Tiger Demon."

Director Zhang smiled and handed a Storage Ring to Xu Xi.

Well.

This Storage Ring was indeed very small.

But what was stored inside was another matter.

After briefly checking the contents of the ring, Xu Xi raised an eyebrow; it was too corrupt, too dismissive of his willpower—he had to take it home and criticize it thoroughly!

Thus, Xu Xi decisively accepted the Storage Ring.

He and Zhang Yaoguo looked at each other and smiled.

"Brother Zhang, I can tell you're a good man at first glance."

"Haha, Brother Xu truly has a Wisdom Eye; to be able to achieve Awakening and become a Golden Core Cultivator so quickly, Brother Xu is also a Dragon among men!"

The two laughed loudly again.

The air was filled with happy sounds.
