"Borrowing 200,000 crystals to pay 300,000 crystals back?"
Feng Qianyu stared at Shifeng in shock. He felt as if he were meeting him for the first time. Δ
A first-rate Guild would be considered wealthy if it had a stockpile of 60,000 to 70,000 Magic Crystals.
Yet, Shifeng had just asked for a loan of 200,000 Magic Crystals. Moreover, the interest was 50%. This was double the market interest.
Magic Crystals were not Coins that could be obtained by selling items on the market. The various large Guilds did not sell Magic Crystals on the market. They could only purchase some from Workshops and adventurer teams. In addition, they could only rely on their Guild members to grind for Magic Crystals.
Although Zero Wing had a goldmine like Stone Forest Town and a thriving Battle Arena, earning 300,000 Magic Crystals in five days wasn't something that could be done easily.
In Feng Qianyu's opinion, this was an impossible task. However, Shifeng's gaze was calm and confident.
"Could it be that you want to compete for the Bronze Tablet?" Feng Qianyu could not help but ask.
"That's right." Shifeng did not try to hide his intentions. It was easy to guess.
Looking at Shifeng's serious expression, Feng Qianyu shook his head and laughed. "I advise you to give up. Even if I lend you 200,000 Magic Crystals, you won't be able to compete with them."
To the top first-rate Guilds, 350,000 Magic Crystals was an astronomical figure. However, to Level Guilds and first-rate Guilds that had made ample preparations, this was not their limit.
Before joining the Ling YI Society, she had definitely earned a lot from the Dark Arena. Including the Magic Crystals the Guild had accumulated, she should have at most 100,000 Magic Crystals on hand. Even if she lent 200,000 Magic Crystals, she would only have 300,000 Magic Crystals.
Conservatively, she should have at least 420,000 Magic Crystals.
If possible, Feng Qianyu wished to borrow 180,000 Magic Crystals from Shifeng. Including the 250,000 Magic Crystals she currently had, she might be able to compete with the other Guilds. However, she still had to prepare for Thunder Island. She would not be able to pay back the Magic Crystals and interest within a short time.
"I still have 260,000 Magic Crystals. Including your 200,000, I believe we should have enough." Shifeng understood what Feng Qianyu meant. He smiled and said, "If it doesn't work, then I can only admit defeat."
At this stage of the game, 400,000 Magic Crystals was more or less what the various major powers had in their vaults.
The Bronze Stone Slab might not be as good as the Silver Stone Slab in terms of Legacy skills, but it was much easier to get started.
The Silver Secret Technique tablet required players to draw Intermediate Magic Arrays, while the Bronze Secret Technique tablet only required players to draw Basic Magic Arrays. As for the Gold Secret Technique tablet, Shi Feng guessed that players would need to draw Advanced Magic Arrays.
Even Shi Feng, who was relatively familiar with magic arrays, could not draw an Advanced Magic Array. In other words, even if he obtained a golden tablet, he could only treat it as an ornament. On the other hand, the Bronze Secret Technique Tablet could be used by more Guild members.
Hence, a Bronze Secret Technique tablet was extremely important to the Ling YI Society. Even if they couldn't obtain it, they had to fight for it.
"Two hundred and sixty thousand? Do you have that many? " Feng Qianyu sucked in a breath of cold air. He had never thought that the Ling YI Society would have more Magic Crystals than he did. His lips curled into a smile as he said, "How about this? I'll lend you 250,000. I won't charge you interest. Just return the 250,000 to me within five days. However, I want ten slots to enter the Bronze Secret Technique tablet. We'll split the slots into two months, and five people will enter each time."
The Secret Technique Tablet could only be used once per month. Even if she obtained one, she could only enter the Bronze Secret Technique once. The Secret Technique Tablet's effects would be the greatest the first time one entered the Bronze Secret Technique Tablet. After entering the Bronze Secret Technique Tablet, its effects would gradually weaken.
Currently, she was competing for the Bronze Secret Technique Tablet mainly to improve her strength before the contest on Thunder Island. She did not particularly care about the consequences. After all, without the present, there would be no future.
"Alright," Shifeng agreed without hesitation.
The Secret Spellcasting Technique mainly targeted magical class players. Only a few magical class experts in the entire Ling YI Society qualified to enter the Bronze Secret Technique. Five slots for the first two months would be more than enough.
Following which, both parties quickly signed the contract. Feng Qianyu then had Blue Phoenix hand the Magic Crystals to Shifeng.
Meanwhile, during this time, the Secret Spellcasting Technique's price soared to 394 Magic Crystals. The various large Guilds in the first-floor hall stared at the Secret Technique in awe, their hearts filled with shock.
Although they had long since known that their Guilds could not compare to first-rate Guilds and Intermediate Guilds, they had never imagined that the gap would be so massive.
"Damn it! Who's trying to outbid me?!" Thousand Miles glared at the two rooms in the hall.
The current price was almost at his limit, but Hidden Soul and Yuan Tiexin didn't seem to have any intention of letting go.
"Four!" Thousand Miles shouted as he looked at the Magic Crystals in his bag.
"Four, four, four!" Hidden Soul calmly declared.
"Interesting." At this moment, Yuan Tiexin chuckled. "Four, four!"
Suddenly, the auction hall became a battlefield between the three players, the atmosphere in the hall turning extraordinarily cold.
"Four, four, four!"
Thousand Miles no longer held back. He immediately increased the price by 30,000 Magic Crystals, intending to show Hidden Soul and Yuan Tiexin just how powerful he was.
"Uncle Yuan, it's already 440,000. This price far exceeds the tablet's value," Purple Jade said.
The Secret Technique Tablet was indeed very helpful to players. However, at the end of the day, the Secret Spellcasting Technique was only Bronze rank. In reality, 300,000 Magic Crystals would be more than enough to purchase it.
"I understand." Yuan Tiexin's initial bid of 41 Magic Crystals was merely a test.
At this moment, Hidden Soul frowned.
"Let's try it again. If it doesn't work, I'll have no choice but to give up." Hidden Soul also felt that the price was too high. Immediately, she shouted, "Four, four, four, four, four!"
"Damn it! Damn it! Why isn't he giving up?! That's 440,000 Magic Crystals we're talking about! "Thousand Miles was enraged.
If not for the Miracle Society already having a Secret Spellcasting Technique, he wouldn't have offered such an astronomical price. However, after learning that the Guild Leader was selling a Secret Spellcasting Technique, the Guild Leader had ordered him to do everything he could to purchase the tablet. Hence, he had no choice but to take out his entire fortune.
"I think this should be his limit. Otherwise, he wouldn't have increased the price by only 4,000 Magic Crystals." Alice, the Witch of the West, grew anxious at this moment.
"Four, four, five!" Thousand Miles decided to make a final gamble. This price was also the limit of what he could afford.
The moment Thousand Miles placed his bid, the entire auction hall fell deathly silent.
"When will they reach their limit?! Are Magic Crystals cabbages?! " The Guild upper echelons in the first-floor hall nearly lost their minds. It was just a tablet. Was there a need to risk their entire fortune for it?
"Hah … It seems we have no choice but to give up." Hidden Soul smiled bitterly as she shook her head. She never thought that she would end up empty-handed despite having so many Magic Crystals on hand. Had she known this would happen, she would've bought the Magic Knight Legacy.
As the seconds ticked by, even the auctioneer grew nervous. However, Hidden Soul remained silent. Thousand Miles understood that the other party must have given up.
"Four, five, five, five, five!"
Hidden Soul's private room immediately called out a new price.
"How is this possible?!" Thousand Miles was enraged.
He could not believe this at all. Hidden Soul had clearly remained silent for so long. Why would she speak again?
However, even if Thousand Miles wanted to compete, he couldn't. After all, he no longer had that many Magic Crystals. He could only watch as the auctioneer struck the gavel again and again.
As the gavel struck for the third time …
