Having received all the money in hand, Zhang nglong decided to set off for the Hong Yun Empire. At this ti, there was still half a month before the superpowers began recruiting disciples, which was likely the most bustling ti in the Hong Yun Empire.
"Mr. Gu!" When Zhang nglong arrived at the Teleportation Array, those responsible for guarding it around him all bowed and saluted Zhang nglong.
Currently in the Skyless Realm, the major forces outwardly seed to be dominated by Dark Hand, with Black Rock Auction House as the runner-up, but they knew very well that this young man in front of them was truly the top figure in the entire Skyless Realm.
"Hmm," Zhang nglong nodded, "Recently, no one has co to cause trouble, right?"
"Rest assured," the head of the guards said, "In the entire Skyless Realm, no one has the guts to co and snatch our business. Since three of the 23 faction leaders were killed, they dare not approach within ten miles of here."
"Well done," Zhang nglong praised, anyway, all the spots had already been sold, and he had the money in hand. Once he left Skyless Realm, it would have nothing to do with him even if things turned upside down.
As for those he could barely call friends here, Dark Hand, being the most powerful now, naturally faced no danger. As for Yang Sande, Zhang nglong had already given him Yu Lingzi's Soul Mark. With Black Rock Auction House's protection, he wouldn't be in any trouble.
During the cooperation period, Dark Hand also greatly appreciated Yang Sande's abilities, to the extent that now, both Dark Hand and Black Rock Auction House showed signs of rging.
"You all take care," Zhang nglong waved at Dark Hand and Yang Sande, who ca to see him off, and stepped into the Teleportation Array.
...
As a blinding light flashed before him, Zhang nglong's surroundings instantly beca open and vast.
In the Skyless Realm, a dense sll of blood was everywhere, with darkness and danger being everyone's definition of the place. But at this instant, Zhang nglong seed to have entered another world, feeling an imdiate sense of relief.
"Goodness, it's just like a high-speed rail station!" Zhang nglong looked around as beams of light appeared and disappeared. Surrounding him were no less than a hundred large and small Teleportation Arrays!
These teleportation arrays also led to far-off places, continuously transporting batches of Heavenly Prides to Hong Yun Empire. Most of them looked at this place with the sa eyes as Zhang nglong had just arrived, but so had backgrounds comparable to the Hong Yun Empire, appearing calm and composed.
"Let's find a place to stay first," Zhang nglong needed to first understand the general situation in the Hong Yun Empire. After all, he had provoked quite a few people in the Skyless Realm. If these people found him, retribution wouldn't be unlikely.
"Young brother, looking for a place to stay?" As soon as Zhang nglong walked out of the teleportation area, a large group of people surged towards him like zombies.
Due to the massive influx of outsiders, all the hotels in the Hong Yun Empire had been almost fully booked during this period. So business-minded individuals thought of a way to make money by becoming scalpers!
This period saw an influx of billions of people, and accommodations in the capital of the Hong Yun Empire had long been out of supply. The consequence was a soaring price, multiplying exponentially. Even a very basic hotel had its prices driven up to tens or even hundreds of thousands of Divine Crystals.
Scalping is a profession you can find in any place and field. They had reserved as many hotels as they could early on, and so even dared to hoard a bunch of them before the price hike, allowing for a huge price difference!
Zhang nglong initially didn't want to pay attention but pondered that by now, at least half of the people should have arrived in the Hong Yun Empire. Finding a place now would most likely be impossible. Although the Super God Academy wouldn't let him sleep on the street or under a bridge, finding a hotel might allow him to gather so crucial intel.
With this thought, Zhang nglong paused.
"What's the price of your hotels here?"
Seeing Zhang nglong stop, the scalper bead ear to ear, "It depends on what quality of accommodation you want. I have everything from the most basic one-star hotels to the top-of-the-line nine-star hotels!"
"What's the difference between a one-star and a nine-star hotel?"
"Oh, the difference is huge!" The scalper enthusiastically explained, "A one-star hotel is just a place to stay, with basic facilities, nothing more. But a nine-star hotel not only has complete high-end facilities, but it also has equipped Cultivation Rooms, Alchemy Rooms, and Artifact Refining Rooms, enough to satisfy all your needs. And the service difference is also significant."
"The price?"
"For a one-star hotel, I have rooms starting at 20,000 Divine Crystals per day. For a nine-star hotel, the daily price starts at a minimum of 20 million Divine Crystals."
"I don't mind spending a little. Give the best nine-star hotel then!"
Zhang nglong, having made so much money, found this a trivial cost and had his reasons too. The higher the class of accommodations, the more accomplished the other guests would usually be; perhaps he could overhear so important information.
"Young brother, the most expensive hotel I have is 65 million Divine Crystals per day. Plus, I require a one-ti paynt for 15 days; for this..."
"Let's go with that one," Zhang nglong imdiately handed over a few Fifth Grade Divine Crystals, nonchalantly, "Keep the change!"
But this was perceived very differently by the scalper. Ordinary people with large funds would certainly deposit them in a bank. But soone carrying billions of Divine Crystals in cash and casually pulling them out surely hailed from an extraordinary background—a true aristocrat!
"Alright, I'll take you there right now!" The scalper cheerfully pocketed the few crystals, "This way, please!"
It was evident the scalper had made quite a profit during this period, even providing special vehicle transport. Of course, this kind of transport was rune-driven and similar to the designs Zhang nglong had seen in the Yanlan Empire, priced at tens of millions of Divine Crystals, boasting robust quality capable of withstanding attacks from ordinary Divine Cultivators, and was pretty fast too.
Besides Zhang nglong, there was another young man inside the vehicle, sporting a poker face and looking unapproachable. His aura was almost at the level of a Seventh Grade Divine Breath, making him one of the most outstanding among those with Heavenly Pride Orders Zhang nglong had encountered so far.
The superpowers had a rule that no matter how many bodyguards one brought along, once they arrived at the assessnt location, they couldn't keep them. Therefore, almost all the young people coming here were alone, otherwise, Zhang nglong could have made two or three tis more from his formation business.
It seed he had also purchased a room at the sa hotel from the scalper.
As they boarded, he glanced at Zhang nglong and then resud ditating with his eyes closed.
Zhang nglong didn't mind. After all, they had no interactions with each other.
"Though I don't know how you got the Heavenly Pride Order, if I were you, I wouldn't co here to court humiliation," the young man suddenly remarked.
Zhang nglong was taken aback, riding to a hotel and receiving such an unsolicited comnt, "Do I know you?"
The young man didn't answer Zhang nglong's question and continued on his own, "Those who co to participate in superpower selections generally have so skills. Your level wouldn't even qualify as the lowest rung, so why waste your money."
"Is it any of your business?" Zhang nglong glared at him, "I've got money and I do as I please!"
