Chapter 7: 40 Gold Per Day? Worth It! "Oh."
Upon seeing this, Wen Ping knew that Yun Liao wasn’t in the mood to chat, so he said, "Sir Yun Liao, there’s no need for you to be so anxious. You will have eight hours of training time per day; the duration won’t be any longer or shorter. Isn’t it the same what time you go?"
"Sect Leader Wen’s words are logical, but I think it’s still better if I head there earlier. I only hope to break through and open the Earth Destruction Arterial Gate as soon as possible."
"You will succeed. Oh right, there are still some rules I’ve forgotten to tell you yesterday. This is regarding the gravity field, the thing you called a dragon formation."
"What rules?"
"The gravity field is free for all first-time users, but if they want to use it again, they will be charged every two hours."
"Paying money again?"
Yun Liao was somewhat shocked and felt a little unhappy. However, he still opened his mouth to ask. "How many gold coins need to be paid?"
"10 gold coins for every two hours."
"In that case, eight hours means 40 gold coins... Sect Master Wen, isn’t your heart a little too black? I’ve paid 1,000 gold, yet you still want me to pay more?"
He felt that Wen Ping was treating him like an idiot and trying to swindle him.
Paying money here and there...
40 gold was already the yearly income of an ordinary person, but one could only cultivate for a single day in the Immortal Sect with that amount of money.
Although Yun Liao didn’t lack this 40 gold, he also didn’t want to be swindled easily.
"Sir Yun, the rules are set this way."
After speaking, Wen Ping took up the board lying next to the bed. It was something he had written last night.
[Rules to use the gravity field: Ordinary disciples can use it for six hours a day. Those in the upper echelons can use it for eight hours a day. People who disobey the rules will have their names written on the blacklist. Those who challenge the rules will be expelled from the sect and also have their names on the blacklist. Those who disregard the rules will be beaten up before being excommunicated.]
[Fees: 10 gold coins for every two hours.]
When Yun Liao saw this, his expression gradually turned somewhat cold. Right now, he felt as though he was being swindled.
He had spent 1,000 gold to join the sect, yet he still had to pay gold coins if he wanted to use the gravity field?
How was this logical?
Other sects wouldn’t mind paying him money for him to join them. At first, he thought that it was fine if the Immortal Sect didn’t do this because a good sect should have confidence. But now, wasn’t the sect leader only trying to make money off of him from all angles?
He had paid 1,000 gold coins. Was the sect leader not satisfied yet?
When Wen Ping saw this, he explained, "Sir Yun, no, I should be addressing you as Elder Yun instead. You are already someone from my Immortal Sect, so why would I have to charge you 10 gold coins to make you hate me? You can come to the gravity field and test out its new function before deciding whether the price, which is 10 gold coins every two hours, is worth it or not."
"Sure."
As Yun Liao replied, his expression was still somewhat unsightly.
After arriving at the gravity field, Wen Ping didn’t feel that there were many differences even after unlocking a new function.
The greatest difference was that there was now a metal money-collection box, and Wen Ping only knew after the system told him the box’s purposes. Hence, Wen Ping got Yun Liao to toss 10 gold coins into it.
Crackle~
The gold coins in Yun Liao’s hands fell into the metal box,
Wen Ping smiled when he saw this and he said, "Elder Yun, you will know when you try it."
Hearing this, Yun Liao walked toward the gravity field skeptically. He then stretched out his hand as he was afraid to ram into that invisible barrier again.
Naturally, the restrictive barrier didn’t appear and he smoothly entered.
After that, he took a few steps forward and immediately felt that his body was like yesterday, becoming extremely heavy. He could only circulate the qi in his dantian to maintain his stamina.
After the eight hours yesterday, he already knew how terrifying the consumption of one’s stamina was when in the gravity room.
In the past, when he was back at home, he would carry logs and climb a mountain to train his strength. However, even a single trip up and down the mountain wasn’t as tiring as two hours of training in the gravity field.
When Yun Liao was preparing to ask Wen Ping about this, something suddenly appeared in front of him.
A blue pop-up window with two rows of words appeared.
The first row of words: Gravity cultivation mode (Cultivation speed will increase by 9x)
The second row of words: Combat mode. (All training aspects of cultivation will increase by 9x, the user’s potential will be ignited as well.)
Yun Liao stared at this new ’thing’ with some astonishment. As he couldn’t understand this completely, he hurriedly turned his head and asked, "Sect Leader Wen, this is?"
However, Wen Ping didn’t reply. A voice then drifted into Yun Liao’s ears. "Please choose your cultivation mode."
Following this, Yun Liao’s gaze focused on the second row of words.
Combat mode!
All training aspects of cultivation would increase by 9x?
It meant that even when he trained his strength and speed, the training speed would also be increased by 9 times.
"Combat mode," Yun Liao quickly answered.
As the sound of his voice rang out, the blue-colored pop-up window vanished. After that, the sounds of the dragon pillars shifting sounded out.
Bzz~
