Early the next morning, after finishing breakfast, Lin Yi got busy in the Spiritual Field. As the harvest time was nearing, the crops needed the most careful attention. However, because his Geng Jin Finger and Cloud Rain Technique had reached the Great Perfect Level, Lin Yi could easily handle the twenty acres of the Spiritual Field.
In his spare time, he also managed Old Huang’s ten acres of the Spiritual Field for a while. From the growth status, this year’s output would also increase, although not as much as his output.
The title of [Little Farmer] had just been upgraded to the third level not long ago. The effects of product yield and quality bonuses had reached 15%, and the pest resistance was at 30%. The number of insects in his spiritual field was fewer than in the fields next door.
With about a month left until the crops in the Spiritual Field matured, he was confident that he could bring out the effects of the third level title. At that time, his yield per acre could increase by 52 kg, and when adding the quality bonus of 15%, the yield per acre would increase by more than 100 kg.
The yield of one acre was 350 kg, so his yield had nearly increased by one-third.
Spiritual Field Manager Meng Le Min, every time he inspects Lin Yi’s spiritual field, can’t help but sigh, claiming that Lin Yi should be the Spiritual Field Manager as he cultivated the Spirit Rice so well.
Lin Yi just laughed and agreed. The reason why he stayed in the Spiritual Field Planting District was only because it was relatively free. Being a Spiritual Field Manager meant being busy all day.
After Zhou Yun Feng took office, the orders he issued were very favorable for Spirit Farmers, there was no need to bear responsibility for reduced production.
It was not as favorable for Managers as some Spirit Farmers lacked talent for farming. No matter how hard they were taught, they may not be able to cultivate well, leading to decreased production, causing the Spiritual Field Managers to bear the responsibility.
However, he had heard that many spiritual field managers had come together and proposed suggestions to Hall Master Zhou Yun Feng. He speculated that the reward and punishment measures might be changed to make them more reasonable.
Suddenly, Lin Yi saw a giant mole cricket on the stalk of a rice plant. Before he could act, Zhi Ling on his shoulder flew over like a sharp arrow and turned the mole cricket into a sweet snack.
“Not bad, Zhi Ling. Your hunting skills are getting better and better.” He gently patted Zhi Ling’s small head and praised with a smile.
The diet of weasels is also very diverse, in addition to small birds, they also prey on small insects.
Just then, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew to his side. He smiled, it was not even a day since Senior Brother Li returned to the mountain gate. He had already rested and recuperated? He activated the talisman, and indeed, he heard Senior Brother Li’s voice transmission.
“Zhi Ling, you continue to catch insects. Remember, kill moths directly and don’t eat them. Moths shed powder and it’s a bit disgusting. Leave them to feed the chickens.” After greeting Zhi Ling, Lin Yi left the Spiritual Field Planting District and went to the open forest where they often used to meet.
When he arrived at the place, he indeed saw the figure of Li Yuan Qing. Compared to yesterday, his air of sternness had diminished a bit.
If Zhou Yun Feng is seen as a sword kept in a scabbard, unknown to everyone, then Li Yuan Qing is a shining blade, always emitting sharp killing intent around it.
“Greetings to Senior Brother Li.” Lin Yi gave a salute towards the back of Li Yuan Qing.
Li Yuan Qing slowly turned around and nodded, “No need to be polite. The reason the war ended so quickly this time is because your Supreme-grade Ward-off Evil and Rebirth Charm played a crucial role.”
“If you don’t want to continue to hide, I can plead your case to Master, so you can advance directly into the Inner Sect. It’s highly likely.”
After some consideration, Lin Yi politely declined, “I dare not take credit. The key to the success of this war is not me, it’s the brave warriors risking their lives to kill enemies. All the credit goes to you, Senior Brother, and all the disciples.”
He didn’t think that without his Supreme-grade charms, the Liu Yun Sect couldn’t handle the Evil Spirits. The charms were just the simplest and most convenient method.
Then, he bowed again, “Thanks, Senior Brother, for your kind intentions. I already received compensation for my efforts, so it’s better if you keep my secret for now.”
There is no wall in the world that does not leak. The more people who know about his ability to produce Supreme-grade Ward-off Evil and Rebirth Charms, the more dangerous it is for him.
If the Xuan Yin Sect discovers that a Qi Refining Stage Cultivator caused them major losses, they will try to retaliate at all costs, even if it means killing him and turning him into an Evil Spirit.
Upon seeing Lin Yi’s adamant refusal, Li Yuan Qing did not say much, “Alright, you may not need as many talismans now. You can concentrate on practicing. After all, cultivation is the foundation of cultivators, your Qi Refining Level
Four is quite low.”
“Yes, Senior Brother, I will try to cultivate hard.” Lin Yi responded earnestly. From this sentence, he felt assured of his speculation.
He couldn’t ask Li Yuan Qing directly – Senior Brother, do you plan to let me enter the Secret Realm to repay your favor? Some incidents are better kept to oneself, as long as you are prepared well in advance.
Li Yuanqing gently nodded, before leaving on his sword.
Lin Yi watched as Li Yuanqing left. Despite their brief conversation, he had gleaned quite a bit of information from him. Li Yuanqing likely visited him to encourage his diligent cultivation.
In the following month, all Spirit Farmers meticulously cared for their Spiritual Fields. Especially the Temporary Spirit Farmers, who stayed up all night in their fields for fear their Spirit Rice might be devoured by birds.
As the Conquest Army returned, some Spirit Farmers returned to their original areas, whereas, some would forever remain on the battlefields.
The returning Spirit Farmers enjoyed their rest after the war. With the Temporary Spirit Farmers caring for their fields, they did not need to worry over their fields.
As the harvest approached, the Deacons of Sinong Palace visited the Spiritual Fields to make an estimate of yield. Once they saw the incredibly full spikelets of Lin Yi’s field, they were all stunned. With such plump spikelets, how many pounds could they increase the yield by?
The smile on Meng Le Min’s face never left. He marveled at his good fortune in encountering Lin Yi, a Spirit Farmer with an extraordinary gift for farming. For a Spiritual Field Manager, he was a true treasure.
After the visit, Sinong Palace issued a new announcement, stating that the harvesting process of the Spirit Rice needed both a Deacon of Sinong Palace and a Spiritual Field Manager present. Only then could they harvest and clearly record the yield and the quality.
In addition to this, they also amended some promotion and penalty measures for the Spiritual Field Manager. The yield and quality of the Spiritual Fields became one of the evaluation criteria, rather than the only standard. Based on the planting performance of the Spirit Farmers in the area, reasonable reduction ranges were set.
They also improved the impeachment mechanism to protect Spiritual Field Managers from being maliciously impeached.
Simultaneously, they changed some of the elimination measures for Spirit Farmers with low yield to prevent those with poor farming skills or those who were indolent from wasting the Spiritual Fields.
In the announcement, they specified the reasonable range of output for the Spiritual Fields. If the production fell below this range three times in a row, the Spirit Farmer would be eliminated from the Outer Sect. However, exceptions would be made in the event of a disaster.
The vast majority of Spirit Farmers had no objections to this announcement. They came to Liu Yun Sect to farm. Besides having a place to settle, they also hoped to acquire some cultivation resources by farming. Being lazy would be less satisfying than being a Loose Cultivator.
At the end of the announcement were the reward methods for the harvest of the Spiritual Fields. Based on the grade of the Spiritual Fields, different areas were divided. The top 100 yields in the Lower Grade Spiritual Fields and top 10 in the planting area could all be awarded.
To prevent loopholes, they instituted selection rules for the ranking. Only those with more than five acres could participate in the ranking.
The average yield of the rented Spiritual Fields would be calculated for the harvest. Therefore, even if one field had increased production but the others decreased, they would not achieve a higher ranking.
The specific rewards would be publicized after the harvest based on the ranking.
After reading the announcement, those Spirit Farmers with improved cultivation and signs of increasing yield were delighted. Each planting area only had a hundred Spirit Farmers. With the top 10 receiving rewards, they might actually stand a chance.
In Sector C, all Spirit Farmers’ gaze naturally fell onto Lin Yi. These days, Lin Yi’s number thirty-eight Spiritual Field in Sector C had pretty much become a tourist attraction.
Many Spirit Farmers flocked over to observe and fraternize with Lin Yi, hoping to glean some farming tips. The full spikelets were immensely appetizing.
“Lin Yi, congratulations! You’re certainly the number one in the Lower Grade Spiritual Fields category.”
“Mister Lin, you might even be promoted directly to Inner Sect this time through your planting.”
“When Mister Lin first came to Sector C, I felt he was like a rising star and would surely make a name for himself.”
Many Spirit Farmers expressed their congratulations to Lin Yi, their eyes filled with admiration. This was the first reward mechanism implemented by the new Hall Master of Sinong Palace, and the rewards were likely to be extremely generous.
“Thank you, all my friends. The harvest isn’t over yet. Claiming the top position before then is something I wouldn’t dare. There are many talented individuals in the Liu Yun Sect; perhaps someone is even better than me,” Lin Yi replied with a fist and palm salute.
“Mister Lin, I must say I’ve benefited from your good fortune,” Director Meng Le Min also responded with a radiant smile. He had already roughly understood the lower-grade Spiritual Field’s harvest assessment situation through a deacon of Sinong Palace. Lin Yi was indeed the undoubted number one cultivator of the sect.
“Director Meng is too kind. Let’s support each other,” laughed Lin Yi as he returned the gesture with a fist and palm salute..
