Chapter 424
Chapter 316: A Compet.i.tion Without Age Restriction
100 million, this was a formidable sum. If not for the Star Phoenix b.u.t.terfly Tail that he spent forever capturing, garnering him 60 million, how would Chu Mu dare to order a 100 million gold item!
Even with 60 million, getting 40 million in a week wasn’t easy at all.
50 million rewards like in Li City weren’t every day matters. Even then, he was facing nearly thousands of Gluttonous Insect Monsters and an expert liek Duan Xinhe. Even if Chu Mu took this bounty now, he probably couldn’t complete it.
40 million, 40 million in a week, how could he possibly sc.r.a.pe together this money!!
Chu Mu had just crawled out of the mountains. He had wanted to spend a few days comfortably, yet now he would have to fret over this ma.s.sive amount of money again.
An eighth soul crystal was priced between 10 million and 20 million. By this rate, Chu Mu had to kill around a thousand eighth phase commander ranks and above to get an eighth rank soul crystal. Gaining gold through this method wasn’t too reliable. At least, with Chu Mu’s first half year only had two eighth phase soul crystals. The later half had no soul crystals at all.
If they were to go for bounties, a usual seventh level bounty would give only about 5 million to 20 million.
With Chu Mu’s current strength, finis.h.i.+ng a seventh level bounty wasn’t an issue. The issue was with these seventh level bounties, he often had to find teams or traverse vast terrain, unable to finish it within a month or two even.
If the distance were close, Chu Mu had the confidence to finish within half a month. After all, he was an expert that had only monarch rank soul pets. Yet, now he only had a week to get 40 million. Chu Mu felt that he would have to kill night and day for a month for it, which would be quite the damage to his nerves…...
"40 million…...40 million……" Walking out of the soul palace, Chu Mu was dazed.
Indeed, soul pet trainers were simultaneously the richest and the poorest career in the world. This was only the soul item needed for one soul pet. If all his soul pets needed this expense, Chu Mu would have to spend his life poor for these people.
"Wuwuwuwu~~~~~~"
Mo Xie sat on Chu Mu’s shoulder, also helpless.
"Young master, have you forgotten about the Guo City yearly compet.i.tion?" Old Li’s voice suddenly floated in.
"How have I forgotten about that!" Chu Mu smacked his head and said aloud.
With the 40 million pressuring him, Chu Mu’s brain wasn’t as agile as before.
Almost every authoritative compet.i.tion had very generous rewards. To get his seventh level t.i.tle, Chu Mu had to gain top ten. It was imaginable that the reward for top ten was still very generous.
"I had just seen that the top ten gold reward is 50 million, meaning as long as you enter top ten, you will get 50 million as reward." Old Li said.
"Top ten has 50 million as prize. How is this reward so high- is it that Guo City is actually a very wealthy city?" Chu Mu said.
Normally speaking, some greater region cities’ annual compet.i.tions only had 10 million for its top ten. Even Kingdom Capitals only give about 20 million gold.
"Young master, don’t get too happy soon. Do you still remember what the soul palace staff said? It is Guo City’s annual compet.i.tion……" Old Li said.
"En, many regions and kingdoms’ cities have such annual compet.i.tions right….." Chu Mu said.
"Your thinking has been restricted to the younger generation." Old Li shook a finger and said in a very learned tone. "This annual compet.i.tion isn’t purely for young generation, meaning you may face middle aged generation members. Of course, old generation members don’t compete because its an unspoken rule to not partic.i.p.ate in such compet.i.tions."
With Old Li’s reminder, Chu Mu finally realized.
