The bright gold shadow that Gao Tieyi transformed into gradually dimmed, leaving only the round ball at the core humming. It soared into the sky and disappeared behind the skyscrapers. ☆ →,
The seven new Orb Patrollers looked at each other in bewilderment. They had thought that a storm of blood was waiting for them. They didn't expect that they would be so relaxed and free that they could do whatever they wanted.
Li Yao vaguely thought of the benefits of this model.
After all, entering the Occult Orbs was too dangerous.
As a Cultivator who advocated freedom and disliked being restricted, if he was forced to go in, even if it was only a hint of coercion, it would cause a strong feeling of disgust.
That was why Occult Orbs Fellowship had been trying so hard to create such a free atmosphere in order to tell them that everything was up to them.
However, the so-called relaxation was actually not that simple. In this one month's time, they had to do everything possible to make the top 100 teams realize their worth!
"What do you think, everybody? It's fate that brought us together. Why don't the seven of us form a team and challenge the top hundred teams and win the right to enter the Occult Orbs?"
The Leopard Valley disciple, Cao Tongtian, suggested.
Nie Junxia, the disciple of the Qianyuan Village shook his head and said coldly.
"I believe Senior Gao's words. The seven of us don't know each other, and we've never worked together before. We're just a mob."
"A Star Team that has been through life-and-death battles together in the Occult Orbs is not something that we can deal with, even if they are ranked in the last ten of the top hundred.
"That's right."
Zhao Mo, a disciple of the Ten Ultimates Union, said casually, "Besides, none of us have ever entered an Occult Orb before. I'd rather team up with an experienced Orb Patroller. The odds of survival will be higher. "
Li Yao didn't think it was a good idea and shook his head.
Cao Tongtian had a good temper and laughed.
"Alright, since no one is willing. Then we can only part ways and take care of ourselves. "
"But first of all, I suggest that we all go to the mainframe crystal processor and ask about the training methods of the rookies in Empyreal Star City. By the way, we can check our own contribution points in case we run around like headless flies!"
This suggestion was very reasonable. Li Yao and the others walked towards the center of the square.
In the center of the square, faint golden electric arcs were intertwined. They intertwined to form an oval with a diameter of five to six meters. It was covered with electric arcs. At first glance, it looked like a translucent electromagnetic brain.
On the surface of this "brain", countless screens of light were shining.
Many Cultivators with deep eyes and long breaths were standing next to the electromagnetic brain, reading the information and communicating with the mainframe crystal processor wholeheartedly.
When he saw the seven rookies walking over, he knew that they were all rookies. Some people had curiosity in their eyes, while others had disdain and hostility in their eyes.
Li Yao walked to the side of the electromagnetic brain. An electric arc suddenly shot towards him and stopped a meter away, opening up a semi-transparent light screen.
Li Yao pondered for a moment and typed the first question with his telepathic thoughts.
"I am Li Yao from the Grand Desolate War Institution. Please show me my current contribution points, as well as some key facilities in Polaris City, such as the price of various levels of cultivation rooms. "
Beep! Beep!
A line of numbers quickly flashed on the screen.
Li Yao, Orb Patroller, has 1,244 contribution points.
There are 1,643 cultivation rooms in Polaris City. The detailed information and prices are as follows …
Li Yao browsed through the information quickly. If the price of a middle-range cultivation room was taken as the base value, the contribution points he had been allocated were quite a lot, enough for him to train in Polaris City for two months.
Of course, high-energy nutrition drugs, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, medical equipment, and so on might have to be redeemed with contribution points, too. In that case, they wouldn't be able to support him for that long.
"Second question. Please download a list of all the secret treasures that can be redeemed with contribution points into my mini crystal processor."
"I'm sorry. For confidentiality, the information can only be browsed here. It cannot be downloaded into your personal crystal processor. Please forgive me."
Li Yao was dazed for a moment. It did make sense. It would be terrible if his crystal processor was stolen by the demon clan after he downloaded the information.
No wonder so many Cultivators chose to use the mainframe crystal processor in the square instead of using their mini crystal processors.
Li Yao patiently browsed through the list of secret treasures again through the light beam of the mainframe crystal processor, only to discover that all the secret treasures were very expensive. More than 1,200 contribution points were not enough to redeem the cheapest secret treasure.
It seemed that the contribution points were indeed 'basic'. They were only meant to help him build up his foundation so that he could live on in Polaris City.
His friends next to him seemed to be even more miserable than him.
Li Yao inadvertently noticed that Zhao Mo of the Ten Ultimates Society and Nie Junxia of the Heavenly Origin Village only had around 800 basic contribution points.
Cao Tongtian of the Leopard Valley, on the other hand, had almost 1,100 basic contribution points.
After pondering for a moment, Li Yao found the answer. It seemed that hybrid-type Cultivators were more popular in the exploration of the Occult Orbs. With multiple talents, they would be rewarded with more contribution points.
On second thought, it did make sense. A Star Team usually had four to six members. Generalists were naturally more popular.
"Third question. Do you have any suggestions for a newcomer like me?"
"For a newcomer, the most important thing for them to do after they enter Polaris City is training and competitions. Then, they will input a lot of videos into the mainframe crystal processor so that they can be discovered by the Star Teams.
"In the meantime, they can earn more contribution points through gambling and competitions so that they can stay in Polaris City for a longer period of time."
The mainframe crystal processor replied quickly, "However, you are a hybrid-type Cultivator. Also, you are very popular in Occult Orbs Fellowship in both combat and creation.
"Combat talents mean that you won't be a burden to your team.
"You are a registered refiner with the talent of creation. You will be able to show your talents in many Occult Orbs.
"According to my records, there are currently seven Star Teams that are recruiting members like you. I can help you communicate with them directly and get a chance to meet them."
"You can also find a refining workshop and record a couple of videos of refining and modification. Then, you can upload them to the mainframe crystal processor so that more teams will pay attention to you."
Li Yao thought for a moment and shook his head.
"No hurry. I want to browse the basic information of all the teams and the most representative videos of their battles."
Since the mainframe crystal processor described hybrid-type Cultivators to be so popular, he was not in a hurry to meet with the teams.
There was enough time left for him to choose a team that suited his taste.
At this moment, a slightly feminine voice rang out from behind him.
"Excuse me. Are you Mr. Li Yao from the Grand Desolate War Institution?"
Li Yao raised his eyebrows. He stepped forward and turned around.
Behind him were two men and a woman in silver combat suits. They were all extremely handsome and impeccable. They were looking at him with a smile.
However, no matter how he looked at it, Li Yao felt that coldness was hidden under the smile.
In the magical equipment graveyard, there were too many people who were talking and laughing while stabbing knives into other people's stomachs at the same time.
The three people in front of him gave Li Yao the same feeling as the smiling tigers in the magical equipment graveyard.
Li Yao was somewhat surprised. He was sure that he didn't know the three Cultivators.
"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Guo Yu. I'm a member of Team Flowing Wind, which ranks 83rd on the Rank of Stars this month. This is Long Chengde, our vice-captain. This is Wan Feihe, our scout.
The feminine young man smiled.
"Mr. Li Yao, I'm told that you are a hybrid-type Cultivator who is good at fighting and creating. Team Flowing Wind is in need of a talent like you. What do you think? If you are interested, why don't we go to the arena and have a try? As long as your combat ability is good enough, you will be a member of Team Flowing Wind!
"Our team has made a reservation to go to the Occult Orbs next week. If you are willing to join us, you will be the core of the trip to the Occult Orbs, and we will help you improve your capability. What do you think?
"Although our team's ranking is not high, we are sincere enough. I hope you can consider it!"
Li Yao blinked and took the opportunity to glance at the names of the seven teams that were recruiting battle refiners that had just been retrieved by the mainframe crystal processor.
As he expected, Team Flowing Wind was not one of them.
As a result, he was even more confused about the purpose of the team.
Just as he was about to refuse, a chubby figure squeezed between him and Guo Yu and sneered with an unpleasant croaky voice, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
"Excuse me, Guo Yu. This is Mr. Li Yao. He and I, Bi Ran, are best friends. He promised to join Team Heavenly Talents a long time ago. You don't need to waste your time!"
While he was talking, the fat young man turned around and winked at Li Yao with a grin.
It was a strange face, too.
Besides, Team Heavenly Talents was not among the seven teams that were in a hurry to recruit battle refiners, either.
Things were getting more and more interesting.
However, Li Yao didn't see any malice in Bi Ran's eyes. He simply smiled and watched.
"You …"
Bi Ran's arrival disrupted Guo Yu's overall plan. The four of them were all gloomy, probably because they had deep grudges against each other before this. The air was so tense that it was about to be torn apart.
Guo Yu's pretense of politeness was almost gone. He clenched and unclenched his fists. Taking a deep breath, he said to Li Yao,
"Mr. Li Yao, Team Flowing Wind is very sincere. If you're interested, you can contact us later. We're always waiting for you."
With that, he glared fiercely at Bi Ran before the three members of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad turned and left.
It was not until they were out of the square that Bi Ran took a long breath in relief. He turned around and grinned.
"Mr. Li Yao, if I hadn't stopped you in time, you would've suffered a lot of physical pain. You might've had your bones broken and your internal organs damaged. You might've had to lie in bed for a couple of days. You would've been mocked and humiliated, too!
"I've done you such a big favor at great risk. Now, it's your turn to do me a small favor. Isn't it reasonable?"
