Su Yuan didn't know about Uncle Wang's inner journey, nor did he comprehend any Divine Skill from the Heart Method Mantra.
He was simply following his instincts and practicing the Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques he had just learned.
From beginner to Minor Success, then to Great Success, and eventually Perfection, it took him less than a quarter of an hour.
Of course, this wasn't because Su Yuan suddenly became enlightened, but because... darn system randomly rewarded him with the Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques, upgrading this Martial Art!
When Su Yuan emerged from the miraculous feeling of doubling his Comprehension and mastering a Martial Art to Perfection in one go, he couldn't help but want to curse.
What's the use of mastering a Fork Skill, it's not like it's on any college entrance exam!
But since it already happened, complaining wouldn't help Su Yuan.
Anyway, it's a reward freely given by the system; using it wouldn't be wasteful.
Besides, after cultivating the Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques to Perfection, Su Yuan realized there were indeed aspects of it worth valuing.
And with this skill, when he retires in the future, at the very least he could become a Security Team Leader.
Comforting himself with such thoughts, Su Yuan began to look forward to the rewards of the beginner's task.
A sudden task could randomly upgrade a skill to full level. What kind of reward would the beginner's task offer?
Just then, he heard a "ding-dong" in his ears once again.
[You have drained all the skills from the Demon Dao elder and cultivated them to Perfection, yet the old guy still hasn't noticed the abyss-like darkness beneath your innocent facade!]
Still the familiar tone! This darned system is framing good people again!
Where do I have abyss-like darkness, I've always been genuinely good-natured!
[This is the Demon Dao, a bloody path full of darkness and betrayal.]
[Demon Task Triggered]
[Task: Hold the Fort]
[Now it's time to give the Demon Dao elder a little shock! Step by step, erode his position, seize his power, beat the Righteous Dao prodigies to the punch, and establish your image as the new master in this Demon Realm!]
[Task Progress: Reputation (0/1000)]
[Task Reward: Demon Technique Grade Enhancement (Selection)]
Seeing the newly refreshed task, Su Yuan suddenly felt wide awake.
Although the system's words were extremely melodramatic, the essence of completing the task was quite simple.
All he needed to do was be a good security guard, blocking delivery guys from entering, and this reputation score should increase.
The task reward was even more heavyweight, directly elevating the grade of a Demon Technique, and it wasn't some random junk, it was selectable!
Although he did not know how the system defined Demon Techniques, he was determined to complete this task.
Originally, Su Yuan was still hesitating about how to inform Uncle Wang he wanted to quit the security job after mastering the Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques.
But with this long-term task, he could be a security guard with peace of mind.
"Uncle Wang, I want to try intercepting delivery guys; do you think my current strength is enough?"
Su Yuan asked, face full of anticipation.
At this moment, Security King Uncle Wang had already recovered from his initial shock and laughed heartily, saying:
"Now, except for actual combat, there's nothing more I can teach you."
"However, it's already so late; do you still want to patrol with me?"
It was already nearing four in the morning. Su Yuan hadn't slept all night, but he didn't mind, saying:
"It's just staying up all night, not a big deal?"
Experts recommend that Qi Cultivation Cultivators sleep four hours daily, but Su Yuan didn't take this advice.
With the physique of a Qi Cultivation Cultivator, staying up all night was like people skipping a nap, not a big deal at all.
Uncle Wang didn't insist further and said:
"Then I'll count you in for six hours of night shift, sixty per hour, and I'll take you to get your salary when the accounting office opens."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Su Yuan felt a little joy in his heart, feeling somewhat embarrassed at both learning martial arts and earning a salary.
Uncle Wang continued:
"An hour from now, it's the peak time for owners to order breakfast. Dozens to hundreds of delivery guys will flood the district to deliver food. That will be your best chance to make a name for yourself!"
Su Yuan was slightly taken aback.
Uncle Wang patted his shoulder and said:
"Although you've learned the most important Heart Method of being a security guard, you can't be too slippery when you're just starting. It's okay to stop them before they finish delivering the food."
"This way, they'll fear you."
Su Yuan nodded, as this aligned with his quest for gaining reputation points.
Time flew by, an hour passed, and the sky began to lighten.
A delivery guy stood on a Flying Sword, looking at the brightly colored and cozy district in the distance, as if he were looking at the Demon King's castle, breaking into a cold sweat just from watching.
"That's a district guarded by Security King; even the Cyan Lotus Sword Emperor, one of the four emperors of the delivery world, fell at his hands two days ago! Can I really retreat safely?"
The delivery guy murmured softly.
However, recalling the tempting tip from that customer, a resolute look flickered in his eyes!
"Even if I'm caught, as long as I deliver the food before getting caught, it'll be worth it! I'll risk it!"
With this decision, the delivery guy's entire body brimmed with Spiritual Power, his Flying Sword beneath him bursting forth at almost maximum speed, transforming into a stream of light, heading straight for the customer's residence!
However, just as he flew into the district, he was blocked by a figure!
It was a young man in a security guard uniform, standing on a Flying Fork.
The young man stood loosely on the Flying Fork, a harmless smile on his face, appearing completely non-aggressive!
The young man was none other than Su Yuan.
"The Security King isn't that young; is it a new security guard?!"
The delivery guy was initially shocked, but upon further inspection, he was delighted.
It was just a part-time high school student, with a cultivation of the Qi Cultivation Middle Stage.
With his own cultivation of the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, bypassing him to deliver the food would be more than easy.
He made up his mind to activate the Flying Sword again, intending to bypass Su Yuan.
But as soon as he took the first step, advancing less than an inch, a chill surged through him like a tidal wave.
The delivery guy halted his charge once more, eyeing Su Yuan with uncertainty and suspicion.
"This young man is full of openings, so why do I feel like if I move, I'll be hooked hard? Is it an illusion?"
"Outsiders are not allowed in this district. Please leave the food in the delivery locker," Su Yuan said with a smile.
The delivery guy hesitated.
Should he trust his instinct or take a risk?
As time slowly passed, after a ten-second stalemate, the delivery guy gritted his teeth and stomped, pushing his Flying Sword to the limit, rushing towards the customer's direction!
But in the next instant, he suddenly felt a force attack his chest. Looking down, he saw that, rather than rushing out at over 300 kilometers per hour, he had been pinned by an Explosion-Proof Fork, unable to move.
After flying not far, the Flying Sword also scuttled back pitifully.
What shocked the delivery guy even more was that Su Yuan's fork had stopped him without making him feel uncomfortable.
Effortless skill, this was definitely Fork Dao Grandmaster level.
"I submit. I dare not cross the Thunder Pool when delivering to Feiyun District in the future!"
The delivery guy nodded solemnly and then inquired:
"May I know your esteemed name?"
"Security, Su Yuan."
