"This way, please." Sande cautiously led Zhang nglong into his room. The room was simply furnished, but Zhang nglong noticed that even the door had a formation carved into it, and the level of this formation was not weak at all.
[Dean, this guy nad Yang Sande has so skills, at least seven Divine Cultivator-level experts have their energy locked onto this room, probably his bodyguards.]
"If he didn't have so skills, he'd probably have been stripped clean long ago," Zhang nglong laughed. Yang Sande was only at the First-grade Divine Breath Realm, and anyone on this spaceship could easily deal with him. However, during his casual chats with others, it was not hard to tell that everyone treated him very politely, even respectfully, probably because his bodyguards were intentionally or unintentionally releasing their energies.
"Please, have a seat." Sande courteously brought over a stool for him.
"Boss Sande has quite so abilities, to have so many Divine Cultivator-level bodyguards," Zhang nglong remarked.
"Hahaha, you are not simple either, to sense my bodyguards' presence," Sande's evaluation of Zhang nglong rose again. A person at the Divine Breath Realm able to discover hidden Divine Cultivators was no small feat.
"Just so small tricks," Zhang nglong laughed, "Mr. Sande, this room is also very special—one defense formation and one attack formation, both probably set up by an Array Master at the Divine Cultivator level, you've spent quite a bit on this."
"Oh? You have an interest in formations too?" Yang Sande was even more surprised. The formations in his room were made by soone he had paid a lot for, and even a Third or Fourth Grade Divine Cultivator-level expert would suffer if not careful. Zhang nglong actually saw through them as soon as he entered the room.
"If I'm not mistaken, one formation is on the door, and the other is on the statue facing the door."
"Good eyes!" Yang Sande praised him, "Hahaha, we businessn inevitably have so enemies and opportunists, so having so ans helps protect ourselves better. My bodyguards can't always be there to protect , but rest assured, I'm doing business now, and Yang Sande has strong principles in business—I never kill and loot."
"With Boss Sande's words, I'm relieved."
"May I know how I should address you?"
"My surna is Gu." Zhang nglong directly identified himself as Gu Xiao, since he was going to participate in the superpower's selection under Gu Xiao's na anyway.
"Mr. Gu, what information do you wish to inquire about from ?" Yang Sande asked, "Seeing you have a Saint Grade Elixir, I'll answer your first three questions for free! Whether it's about the Skyless Realm or those superpowers, I know a bit or two."
"Straightforward," Zhang nglong felt the sincerity from Yang Sande, though he had so fear of his background, but as long as the result was good, Zhang nglong didn't care about the process, "I want to know how many slots the Skyless Realm is selling this ti, and what the general pricing is."
"Under the current circumstances, those entering the Skyless Realm from the Lingxi Empire to participate in the superpower disciple selection could number around fifty to sixty million."
"That many?" Zhang nglong was taken aback.
"It's not strange at all," Yang Sande calmly said, "The Skyless Realm is just one crossing point to the Hong Yun Empire from our direction. There are probably about twenty other crossings of various sizes that can lead to the Hong Yun Empire, and the total number could be around one billion."
"One billion?"
"In past years, the participants were far more than that," Yang Sande laughed, "Last ti, there should have been around 1.07 billion people who got the Heavenly Pride Order, so the fifty to sixty million in the Skyless Realm will only be less, not more, even possibly several tis more, and by then, even if a few billion people are fighting for these teleportation slots, it's not for certain."
"Can the Teleportation Array transmit so many people?"
"Of course, it can," Yang Sande said, "The daily flow from here to the Hong Yun Empire reaches tens of millions, so getting everyone there is nothing difficult."
"Then it's very simple," Zhang nglong said, "Since they have such transportation capabilities, even if the first batch bought their slots at a high price, they are just suckers; there's no way they won't sell slots later, right? At most, it's just a matter of making more or less money."
This reminded Zhang nglong of the ticket scalpers who sold concert tickets at inflated prices. Initially, prices were sky-high, but as the show was about to start, if they hadn't sold all the tickets, they would even sell them cheaper than the purchase price for fear of not selling.
Zhang nglong once had a friend who loved attending performances and specifically waited at the venue entrance on the last day to find scalpers, never paying more than the original price for tickets.
"Hehe, you don't know," Yang Sande said, "There's a lot going on in this!"
"What mystery?" Zhang nglong asked, "This counts as my second question."
"Did you think the Heavenly Pride Order was just a token for broadcasting ssages?"
"What else could it be?"
"This thing, broadcasting ssages is just its smallest function. Its greatest use is to calculate a person's fortune! Everything about this person's rise and fall will be recorded as a unique energy of fortune. Finally, during the evaluation, it becos a crucial indicator."
Seeing the confusion on Zhang nglong's face, Sande continued to add, "Actually, you were right; everyone can eventually get to the Hong Yun Empire, but the process is completely different. Who do you think will be rembered more, soone who bought the slot at a high price at auction or soone who snagged it at the last mont?"
"Of course, the forr."
"Exactly," Sande said, "Such reputation will be recorded as fortune, so do you still think the order of slots doesn't matter?"
"I get it," Zhang nglong said, "Turns out the Heavenly Pride Order is a kind of show-off recorder!"
"Show... what recorder?" Yang Sande looked confused.
"Oh, nothing, just a term for fortune-storing items from my hotown."
"Oh, I see, a show-off recorder... it does sound unique," Yang Sande murmured, "So if you want those superpowers to favor you, accumulate fortune as much as possible. Leading in anything will greatly accumulate your fortune."
"I understand now," Zhang nglong nodded. If that's the case, he indeed needed to compete a bit, not only earning a large number of Cred Points but also having his fortune recorded by the show-off recorder, a win-win situation.
"I have one more question," Zhang nglong asked, "The Hong Yun Empire must also have people who obtained the Heavenly Pride Order, aren't they losing so fortune?"
"The Hong Yun Empire is a Ninth Grade Empire," Yang Sande said, "People from there naturally co with a halo. Just ntioning their na will ensure recognition; the fortune naturally belongs to them."
"Wow, I guess I can't stay low-key this ti either."
