The Horse Master is waiting at the carts. You are among the first to come back.
Part of you want to <span class="mu-s">keep both of the spirits</span>. But you let reason get the upper hand over heart.
"<span class="mu-s">Young true master. Novice.</span>
- <span class="mu-g">Horse master. I'll keep this two for myself. And give this one to the sect.</span>
- <span class="mu-s">A Panther spirit? Third stage... Attuned to agility and suffering... Great catch. This was quite the harvest. Did the boy helped?</span>
- <span class="mu-g">More than that. Come on, present your spoils!</span>
- Here, master. a Dazzling Dream Dormouse
- <span class="mu-s">Second stage? Impressive catch for a novice. You're practicing an Hawk Technique, so you will most likely wants the sect to give you such a spirit?</span>
- Actually, I got one... I'll keep this one myself". The Horse Master smiles; seemingly pleased by your results exceeding wildly all expectations.
"<span class="mu-s">Mmmh... That Hawk is obviously attuned to Gold and Fire... But there's something more... This is a great catch. Alright, so you want an Horse spirit? Or a Technique maybe?</span>
- No, no. Qi and Blood Pills will do. Thanks, Master."
>Obtained 20 Qi and Blood pills
Slowly, higher level disciples comes back, some with a novice. Some of them present wounds - including your friend Man-Din, clenching her arm with eyes filled with tears.
Most are empty handed.
Dhundan used your warning well. He set aside Body Tempering Liquid, and made a great catch himself. For now, he keeps it to himself, only flashing it briefly to the Horse Master.
Three older novices were luckier - you're expecting them to open their heart aperture soon instead of soon-ish.
>Giving the Dormouse to the sect for merely Qi and Blood Pills will grant you <span class="mu-s">Favor</span>
You're seen as a diligent, reliable disciple : you overcame the insane odds of facing several third stage Spirit Beasts with a single Spiritual Bead. You smartly used ressources allocated by teaming up with the right person, resulting in a net positive outcome for the sect.
In addition, you're diligently giving the <span class="mu-s">Dazzling Dream Dormouse spirit</span> to the sect for a small reward (huge to you, inexpensive in the grand scheme of things)
