Chapter Fifty-Three Welfare Treatment
"Oh, okay." Yang Tong took out his original token.
Ge Hong took the card and matched it with the waist card that was exclusive to the Shennian Master. Immediately, a neutral voice came from the waist card: "The data has been converted and can be recognized by its master."
"Mr. Yang Tong, please input the divine thought to recognize the master." Ge Hong handed the token to Yang Tong. The blood recognition was too low-level, this token used spiritual imprint recognition.
Yang Tong took it in his hand, this sign is much better than the one later on, and there's a screen display too. Putting the divine thought into the sign, it was done instantly.
"Master, I am the Waist Card Instrument Spirit. Your current information is: Name: Yang Tong; Age: 13 years old; Occupation: Divine Thought Master; Rank: Grand Earth First Level; Affiliation: Feng Xuan Continent; Title: Second-Class Baron of Huang Yu Kingdom, with legal immunity from criminal prosecution. Balance: 264,274,000."
"Baron, how did I become a baron? And also gained an additional 10 million spiritual coins?" Yang Tong asked curiously.
"This is what you want, Lord Viscount. Any spiritual mentor can get a title from the kingdom, but generally it's just a third-class baron. However, young and talented spiritual mentors like yourself will automatically be promoted to a higher rank. The one million spirit coins are a reward from the government. From now on, every month you'll receive 150,000 spirit coins as a stipend, and also get a set of exclusive villas. Here's the key and location of the villa." Ge Hong explained to Yang Tong, emphasizing how much the kingdom valued young spiritual mentors, not only with rewards but also with many benefits and titles.
Don't think that being a noble is anything special, don't forget that in the Feng Xuan continent, every country is an imperial nation. The status of a noble within an imperial nation is naturally much higher than that of a commoner. Any commoner who offends a noble without reason will be sentenced to punishment, and in severe cases, it's a capital offense.
Yang Tong suddenly became a noble of the kingdom from an ordinary citizen, with an unreal dreamlike feeling. The gap between the Earth Rank and the Apprentice Rank can be seen at a glance. Of course, this is also because Yang Tong is a Divine Intent Master that he has such treatment, otherwise if it were a Martial Spirit Master, although there would also be a villa and subsidies issued, at least the rank would have to drop by half, and it would not be possible to have a title conferred.
The most important thing is that the title of God Envoy is universally recognized across the continent! In other words, Yang Tong's title would be recognized in Central Tian Dynasty, and although he wouldn't receive any special treatment, his noble status would still be acknowledged, with the same legal immunity from criminal prosecution.
As for the villa that was allocated, Yang Tong took a look at the qualifications and it was very detailed. It was a newly developed scenic villa area in a special district of the city, which was ten times larger than the small villa at home. Moreover, there were also four maidservants assigned to serve him, whose salaries were all paid by the government.
Ge Hong immediately granted many rights to the divine thought masters, and also issued a special professional robe and badge for the divine thought masters. The badge itself is a three-product spiritual instrument, which has the effect of storing thought power. A terrestrial-level badge can store about one-tenth of the thought power of a terrestrial-level divine thought master.
"Thank you, Mayor, for taking the trouble to come here." Yang Tong politely replied.
"Alright, I should take my leave too." Ge Hong had finished explaining everything and left without even drinking a sip of water.
Ge Hong had just left for a while, and Yang Tong hadn't even had time to close the door when Li Fangxin arrived with his men.
"Li Dage, come on in and take a seat." Yang Tong said with utmost politeness.
"No need to bother, let's just talk about it here. After finishing the official business, Li had to go back and report anyway." Li Fangxin said with a serious face.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is a high-ranking mercenary from the city of Yàoxīng, Lord Yuèzǐfēng." Lǐ Fāngxìn politely introduced the old man beside him to Yáng Tóngdào, while also winking at Yáng Tóngdào on the sly.
"Hello, Mr. Yue." Yang Tong bowed and greeted him with a fist, Yang Tong received the hint and naturally attached great importance to this old man.
"Not bad, extremely good. Our Imperial Wing Branch Mercenary Guild has not received a young and talented Spirit Master like you for a long time." The old man was clearly very satisfied with Yang Tong's politeness. "Yang Tong, I have been instructed by the Imperial Wing Branch to present you with an award from the upper echelons of the guild. Firstly, you have become an internal member of the Mercenary Guild, possessing all the rights and privileges that come with it. Also, this is a letter of admission from the Royal Advanced Academy; take it and report to school in a month's time. Secondly, the upper echelons of the guild reward you with 20 contribution points, a Spirit Master defensive artifact, an attack artifact that will be determined by your learned skills - you can choose one later. Lastly, there is a guild-provided auxiliary artifact that allows you to connect to the guild's internal spiritual energy network, querying all information within your authorized scope, and also allowing you to seek help from the guild in times of danger. However, I must remind you that you only have three chances to seek help from the guild; this is for emergency use only and cannot be used lightly. Using up these chances will require you to exchange contribution points to get more opportunities. 1 contribution point can request a Great Earth-level expert to solve your problems, 10 contribution points can request a Sky-level expert, 100 points can request an Empty Space-level expert, and experts above the Sacred Domain level require over 100 times that amount of contribution points. So, I advise you to save those three chances; as you grow stronger in the future, you may even be able to request help from True God-level experts."
"Thank you for your guidance, I will remember it well." Yang Tong said gratefully. These three requests should not be used carelessly, and it's best not to waste them unless it's a matter of life and death.
Yue Zi Feng took out a waistband, on which was attached a gemstone that seemed to be holding back its radiance. Next was a plaque in the shape of an arrowhead and an admission notice from the Royal Advanced Academy.
"Alright, I need to explain something to you. Let's go to your room and talk about the internal structure of the Mercenary Guild." Yue Zifeng said cautiously, although the internal structure of the Mercenary Guild wasn't a particularly confidential matter, it was still better not to let outsiders hear it.
"Please come in." Yang Tong said politely and personally welcomed him into his own room.
"Li Zhi and I will go in, you all just wait outside." Yue Zifeng instructed, then he and Li Fangxin entered Yang Tong's house.
As early as when Ge Hong came over, people in this neighborhood had received the news, and many idle people were watching the excitement from the outside.
Such a good thing is rarely seen in many years, and there will be something to talk about when meeting relatives and friends in the future.
As he passed by his parents' room, Yang Tong went in and told them briefly: "Dad and Mom, we're going inside to discuss something. It's an internal matter of the Mercenary Guild."
"Oh, right, your father, I'm going out to buy vegetables, why don't you come with me?" The old mother asked loudly.
"Alright, alright, let's go buy vegetables together. The kid is quite capable." Yang Tong wasn't a fool either and naturally cooperated by saying so.
The two of them didn't take anything and left directly.
Yang Tong personally poured three cups of tea into his own room and handed them to the guests, saying: "Lord Yue, please have some tea. Li Dage, have some tea."

The first update is here, I know that the plot is a bit dull now, but once the main character becomes stronger, it will be exciting. Be patient...
