"Master, this is my humble gift!" Li Shiming also took out a jade box, presenting it in front of Grandmaster Hu.
Grandmaster Hu had previously instructed him that although some disciples give a master-apprentice gift upon entering the sect, Li Shiming had become a Nascent Soul Cultivator recently and joined Ten Thousand Beast Sect shortly after, having been a Loose Cultivator before. Hence, Grandmaster Hu did not require Li Shiming to prepare a master-apprentice gift.
Li Shiming's offering of the gift brought a gratified smile to Grandmaster Hu's face.
No matter what Li Shiming's gift was, the gesture alone satisfied Grandmaster Hu.
"Good child!" Grandmaster Hu accepted the jade box and, without reservation, opened it.
Inside the jade box were thirty Fourth-grade Spirit Tea Leaves, initially thought to be resources Li Shiming had collected over the years from the sect.
But upon sensing the aura on the thirty Fourth-grade Spirit Tea Leaves, he noticed something unusual.
