I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 110 - 99: Peak Master Disciple and Spirit Rice_2
"I really don’t know what Elder Liu was thinking, choosing someone who hasn’t been in the sect for long as the peak master’s disciple. Has his Qi Refinement reached the sixth level?"
"Hehe, who told him to be the first to go up to Baihua Peak? At that time, Baihua Peak only had Sister Xiao and Sister Han—
Sister Xiao didn’t care about the duties of the peak master’s disciple, and Sister Han had left the sect to seek medical treatment. At that time, there was no one on Baihua Peak, so this kid took advantage of the vacancy."
These Outer Disciples were originally not from Baihua Peak, but after Yao Yue Sect divided the disciples into white-clothed and red-clothed ones, to avoid conflicts between the two groups, the red-clothed disciples occupied the Three Peaks, and the white-clothed disciples took over Baihua Peak and Medicine Peak.
Tian Lin was the peak master’s disciple of Baihua Peak, while the peak master’s disciple of Medicine Peak did not change, still being Zhuang Buzhou.
Tian Lin did not know who the peak master’s disciple of Lianshui Peak was; because he did not know the rules for the peak master’s disciples to receive Spirit Stones and Spirit Rice, he was the last to arrive at Moon Pond Mountain when the time came.
There, an Inner Sect Disciple checked Tian Lin’s information and gave Tian Lin all the bags of Spirit Stones and Spirit Rice.
Tian Lin put the Spirit Stones and Spirit Rice into his Storage Bag, and then departed from Moon Pond Mountain.
Moon Pond Mountain is close to Lianshui Peak, and by the riverbank at the entrance of the mining school, no one could be seen panning for Water Spirit Ore anymore.
Tian Lin could only vaguely see several mining school disciples sitting under the bamboo corridor, meditating in the lotus position.
These mining school disciples did not stand up when they saw Tian Lin. Only Zhao Si hurried over and bowed to Tian Lin, saying:
"Brother Tian, it has been quite some time since we last saw you, how have you been lately?"
Now, even the servant disciples address the Outer Disciples as brothers, and the time when servant disciples called Outer Disciples ’Immortal Masters’ is long gone.

Tian Lin did not feel any loss; he smiled and asked, "I’m alright, how are things with you now?"
Zhao Si sighed and said, "Everyone’s been cultivating every day, but even with the Blood Pills, how easy is it to break through in cultivation? Fortunately, everyone now has a goal."
Tian Lin patted Zhao Si’s shoulder and said, "Keep at it. Once you become an Outer Disciple, you’ll get more Blood Pills."
This was actually a meaningless comment, because even if these servant disciples had Blood Pills to consume, they were still far too late compared to those Outer Disciples.
How many of these servant disciples could truly become Outer Disciples?
Therefore, in the Life and Death Platform next month, Tian Lin’s competitors would still be those Outer Disciples.
He only needed to ensure that his rank was within the top sixty to retain his status as an Outer Disciple.
As for the status of an Inner Sect Disciple?
Even with Xing Shanping being imprisoned, all Inner Sect Disciples in the sect were those who had cultivated top-grade Spells.
Tian Lin did not yet have the confidence to beat these cultivators of top-grade Spells just because he had perfected the Wind Walking Skill.
After he went up Baihua Peak, the seven Outer Disciples of Baihua Peak had already been waiting for a while.
Those Outer Disciples looked at the Storage Bag on Tian Lin’s waist, and it would be a lie to say they were not envious.
But now, no one stepped forward to mock Tian Lin; everyone was waiting for Tian Lin to distribute the Spirit Stones and Spirit Rice.
Xiao Hong took a scale from inside the house and helped Tian Lin weigh the rice while asking him:
"Tian, have you had any breakthrough in your cultivation recently?"
Xiao Hong was interested in finding out, so Tian Lin did not intend to hide it from her.
"Thanks to Elder Xiao’s blessing, I have now reached the ninth level of Qi Refinement."
The few Outer Disciples who received the Spirit Rice sneered and said, "Ninth level of Qi Refinement? Those who consume Blood Pills don’t even cultivate as fast as you, do they?"
Tian Lin did not explain, and Xiao Hong glared at that Outer Disciple and said, "My grandfather said that Brother Tian’s talent for cultivation is even stronger than Zhong Wujie. Maybe one day he could really become an Inner Sect Disciple through his efforts—"
Several Outer Disciples did not believe it, but none went so far as to contradict Xiao Hong foolishly.
They took the Spirit Rice and Spirit Stones, bowed to Xiao Hong, and turned to leave.
Tian Lin divided the remaining Spirit Rice in his bag into two, and upon seeing this, Xiao Hong immediately said, "Brother Tian, you don’t need to take care of me; I’ve never lacked Spirit Rice since I was young."
Hearing this, Tian Lin only gave half a jin of Spirit Rice to Xiao Hong.
Now with five Spirit Stones left, looking at the Spirit Rice in the bag, Tian Lin asked, "Sister, how do you think the effect of Spirit Rice compares to Spirit Stones?"
Xiao Hong was stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "Although our Yao Yue Sect’s Water Spirit Rice can provide Water Spiritual Energy, in the end, it is still not as good as Spirit Stones."
Tian Lin then said, "If Senior Sister is willing, this Junior Brother would like to buy some Spirit Rice from you."
The hulled Spirit Rice could no longer evade Tian Lin’s examination.
[Inquiring Sword Fruit, after a Sword Immortal’s death, their Sword Intent will scatter across the world and transform into fruit, which can be consumed.]
Tian Lin did not know what Sword Intent was, but the words ’Sword Immortal’ made him understand that the Inquiring Sword Fruit must not have been easy to come by.
He proposed to buy Spirit Rice with Spirit Stones, which put Senior Sister Xiao in a difficult position.
She thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Forget it, I don’t lack Spirit Rice to eat. If you like it, how about I give you my half a pound of Spirit Rice for this month as well?"
The moment her voice fell, an Outer Disciple from a distance came and said,
"Brother Tian wants to exchange Spirit Stones for Spirit Rice? Good idea, you give me one Spirit Stone, and I’ll sell you my half a pound of Spirit Rice."
Xiao Hong, upon hearing this, angrily said, "Who calculates it this way? One Spirit Stone can open at least a dozen acupoints, while half a pound of Spirit Rice can only open one acupoint. Moreover, one only eats a bowl of Spirit Rice at a meal, and eating more is ineffective; how can it be compared to Spirit Stones?"
That Outer Disciple said, "You can’t calculate it that way. Consuming Spirit Rice doesn’t require meditation to digest, which saves an unknown amount of effort. Furthermore, our sect has no precedent for trading Spirit Stones—
Since Senior Sister does not agree with my price, why not say, how much Spirit Rice can one Spirit Stone exchange for?"
Xiao Hong spoke on behalf of Tian Lin, "At least five pounds."
Upon hearing this, the Outer Disciple smiled, shook his head and walked away.
Xiao Hong frowned and looked at Tian Lin, "Do you really want to use Spirit Stones to exchange for Spirit Rice?"
Tian Lin said, "Everyone in the sect who knows me is aware that I have a penchant for tastiness. So even if it’s a loss, I still want to exchange some Spirit Rice with Spirit Stones."
Xiao Hong also knew that Tian Lin’s ’penchant for tastiness’ was well-known because everyone who had seen Tian Lin knew that aside from going to the bathroom and sleeping, there was hardly a time he wasn’t eating something.
She didn’t suspect anything about Tian Lin, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "If you truly want to use Spirit Stones to exchange for Spirit Rice, I can ask my grandfather—his cultivation is such that eating Spirit Rice is entirely useless now, it would be better to exchange it for some Spirit Stones instead."
Tian Lin was overjoyed and said, "It would be great if Senior Sister is willing to help, but in any case, I cannot allow you to suffer any loss!"
It’s true that Xiao Hong said she didn’t lack Spirit Rice because all of Elder Xiao’s Spirit Rice was consumed by her.
So Tian Lin exchanging Spirit Rice with Elder Xiao using Spirit Stones was akin to taking away Xiao Hong’s own food supply.
Xiao Hong smiled and said, "Apart from tasting better, Spirit Rice really isn’t worth much. Rest assured, it turns out that I’m actually taking advantage of you, Junior Brother."
Having said that, she turned and ran up the mountain.
Logically, since Tian Lin had become a Peak Master Disciple, even if his cultivation was lower and he entered the sect later than her, she should call Tian Lin ’Senior Brother’.
But this was Baihua Peak, and since she had said there was only one Brother Lu at Lianshui Peak, how could Tian Lin dare to act as her Senior Brother?
After Xiao Hong left, Tian Lin, holding a pound of Spirit Rice, entered his residence.
His residence still had the same layout as Jiran Inn, clearly, Xiao Hong had put a lot of thought into it.
He went to the table, found a bowl, and poured a pound of Spirit Rice into a large bowl.
Because of its larger kernels and being denser than common rice, this one pound, once cooked, would probably yield only two small bowls.
However, Tian Lin didn’t put it into a pot to cook; he took a spoon and scooped up a gentle spoonful and placed it in his mouth.
The originally hard Spirit Rice turned into something akin to sweet, savory meat in his mouth.
After two more spoonfuls of Spirit Rice, he quickly frowned.
"The enhancement of Sword Intent doesn’t seem to help with cultivation, thus I don’t feel even a bit of increase in Spiritual Energy in me."
He set down the spoon and meditated for a moment, still not noticing any difference in himself after eating the Spirit Rice.
After some thought, Tian Lin took out a sword from his Storage Bag.
But even after lightly wielding his Taibai a few times, he saw no improvement in his sword technique.
"No, the Inquiring Sword Fruit must be useful; perhaps it’s because I’ve consumed too little of the Inquiring Sword Fruit that I can’t perceive the changes within."
By the time Xiao Hong arrived carrying a large cloth bag, she saw Tian Lin cradling a bowl, pouring a bowl’s worth of uncooked rice into his mouth and chomping away voraciously.
