Soon, under the manager’s reluctance, William paid 330,000 rits and completed the transaction.
"Young master, doing this kind of thing too often will shorten my life. How about I give your friend a VIP discount next ti?" the manager suggested, seeing they were about to leave.
If William repeated transactions like this too many tis, it would beco easier to get caught.
All their deals were recorded on the dark panel. For a shop like theirs, even the receipt for what was bought and received in the transaction was logged.
Once a supervisor reviewed it and noticed sothing off, even if he wasn’t demoted, he’d still be punished.
As for claiming William bought everything for personal use, who would believe a direct descendant needed a storage ring, materials, and astral arts? Wouldn’t it be easier to get all that from the family?
anwhile, hearing the manager’s words, William’s eyes lit up.
"VIP discount? That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? Give my friend the Supre VIP Card."
"Supre VIP Card? I don’t have the authority to grant such a card. Why don’t you ask Lord Davis?" the manager replied, speechless.
A Supre VIP Card could only be granted by direct mbers of the Stanley Family.
Besides, those cards were reserved for the closest partners or those who spent billions of rits in the Star Tower.
"Then what can you give ?"
"I can only offer your friend a Gold VIP Card. That’s the best I can do with my authority..."
From Gold to Royal to Supre, he could only issue the lowest-tier VIP card.
"That’ll do. It’s better than nothing."
Knowing the manager couldn’t do anything more, William compromised.
"Good!" Seeing the young master give in, the manager quickly got to work and personally created a VIP Card for Nash.
After asking for his na and virtual ID, the manager logged into the virtual world to process the docunts.

A few monts later, Nash was presented with a freshly minted Gold Card.
[Gold VIP Card: A VIP card from the Star Tower offering a 30% discount and various other privileges.
Materialization cost: 100 rits]
"You can use this in the Dark Plane or the real world. I’ve also sent a virtual card to your Virtual World account. Feel free to visit the Star Tower, Young Master Noir..." the manager explained with a professional smile.
"I’ll take a look later..."
---
Satisfied with the transaction, Nash and William left the Star Tower.
"Where to next, boss?"
"Is there any private residence here where no one can disturb ?"
Since one could only use rits in the Dark Plane, Nash didn’t want to waste any more ti. He planned to find a quiet place and break through.
"If boss just wants to rest, there are many hostels you can rent. But if you’re planning to train for a long ti, there’s a special training hall you could use."
"Special training hall? What’s the difference?"
"The training hall isolates the flowing dark energy in the Dark Plane. It lets you train without any external interference."
"I see. Then let’s rent one."
"Follow , boss!"
Renting a public mount, they rode through the Iron Fall Shelter to find a training hall.
---
Monts later, they arrived near the center of the shelter, where rows of cube-shaped rooms stood in neat formation.
"Can this place really isolate dark energy?"
Dark energy was the harmful counterpart to void energy. It was the force that generated and spawned dark beasts. High concentrations of it could corrode both body and soul, leading to insanity or death.
Because he had only been to colorless or beginner-level danger zones, he still hadn’t experienced the effect of concentrated dark energy.
That was also why weaker individuals were restricted from entering higher shelters.
The only reason Nash and William could enter Iron Fall Shelter, despite being weaker, was because of the massive barrier overhead that isolated most of the dark energy.
anwhile, hearing Nash’s doubt, William quickly nodded in confirmation.
"Although these training halls look shabby, they should be able to isolate or at least minimize the influence of dark energy."
"Then let’s rent one. It’s also ti for you to raise your saturation rate. No need to hold back."
Nash had noticed that William had been deliberately holding back his growth.
Since he had already completed his family’s initiation, there was no reason to restrain himself anymore.
Hearing Nash’s words, William couldn’t help but feel touched.
With tens of millions of rits in his account, he could’ve already pushed his strength to the limit of his understanding.
But wanting to stay by Nash’s side, William had intentionally slowed his progress.
"There’ll be more challenges ahead. Gaining as much strength as possible is a priority..."
Leading the way, the two quickly rented a rit room for themselves.
After spending 2 hours exploring Iron Fall Shelter, Nash had only 10 hours left to train.
Getting inside an empty room that was only 3 by 3 square ters in size, Nash felt speechless.
"Can’t it be smaller?" he thought sarcastically.
Fortunately, the price was only 10 rits per hour, which didn’t bother him too much.
Shaking off his stingy instincts, Nash opened his dark panel.
[Nash Navre
Rank: Void Warrior (65% )
rits: 758,000]
"Let’s get to 100% saturation first."
Tapping the " " sign, Nash felt void energy begin to stir around his body.
Activating the [Training Module System], the untad void energy followed a preset sequence, steadily increasing his saturation rate.
66%... 67%... 68%... 69%... 70%... 71%...
"The price just quadrupled?"
From needing around 2,000 rits per 1% increase, the cost suddenly jumped to 8,000.
"It’s really expensive to power up with money..."
Sighing, he continued.
Thankfully, as his saturation climbed to 80%... 90%... and finally 100%, the rit cost didn’t rise much further.
[Nash Navre
Rank: Void Warrior (100% )
rits: 505,300]
"So this is 100% saturation, the peak of the Void Warrior rank!"
Feeling every part of his body filled with void energy, Nash experienced an unprecedented sense of freedom.
Clenching his fist, he felt at least three tis stronger than before.
Compared to an ordinary human, he was easily a hundred tis more powerful.
In strength, speed, and reflexes, he now far surpassed his previous self.
"But this isn’t the end..."
