"Fifty thousand contribution points?"
"Tenth place?"
Hearing the Green God staff member's words, Zhuo Linqiu was stupefied, his eyes filled with disbelief.
At this moment, let alone Zhuo Linqiu, even the indifferent Han Yifeng was dumbfounded.
Originally, this person was only a chess piece in their eyes. Now, however, not only did he stand on the same level as them, but he had even become a chess player and was competing with them.
"It's no wonder he didn't take us seriously. He actually contributed 50,000 contribution points in one go and ranked tenth." Realization dawned on Zhuo Linqiu as he looked at the Shifeng. Then, a mocking smile appeared on his face as he said, "Unfortunately, he doesn't know that the current contribution point ranking is only a warm-up for the real competition."
The contribution competition had been held in the Upper Zone for many years. As long as one intended to compete, they wouldn't reveal themselves during the first two months of the competition.
After all, contribution points were the greatest trump cards of all participants. Naturally, these trump cards should be hidden as deeply as possible. Only by revealing them at the last moment could they play a crucial role in the competition.
Moreover, there was another advantage to accumulating contribution points in secret. At the last moment, he could decide whether or not he was going to compete in the contribution competition. After all, aside from the missions that had to be submitted on time, he could use the contribution points in the future. He didn't have to use them now.
Since the contribution competition had been held for so many years, there was no lack of participants who had been accumulating contribution points over the years. After accumulating contribution points for several years, they would erupt with a sudden burst of power and obtain one of the top three positions in the middle layer.
Less than a month had passed since the start of the contribution competition. Currently, the contribution points accumulated were only a test. Moreover, the majority of these contribution points came from the Green God Company's various special bounty missions. These bounty missions weren't long-term missions that could be submitted at any time.
Exposing one's contribution points prematurely was the most foolish choice.
"Although I don't know why he did this, this is a good opportunity," Han Yifeng said, shaking his head. Returning to his usual indifference, he said, "Old Zhuo, talk to him later. I'll buy his hidden contribution points at double the price."
"Double the price?" Zhuo Linqiu couldn't help but turn to look at Han Yifeng. He felt that Han Yifeng's offer was a little too high. "Young Master, according to past practice, 1.5 times is already a high price. After all, it's impossible for these people to get into the top three, so they won't be of any use to them. If others find out that we're buying their hidden contribution points at double the price, they'll definitely raise the price."
In the contribution competition, it wasn't as if there were no participants who would ally with others in the end. After all, before one could exchange contribution points for the Green God Company's contribution points, aside from the contribution points obtained through quests, one could freely trade contribution points in secret.
Most of the time, at the last moment of the contribution competition, especially for those who were not far from the top three, they would try their best to buy contribution points. Therefore, there would always be a bargaining price. This time, if they wanted to fight for the top three, it was unavoidable.
As for negotiating the price, it was to purchase the contribution points that had yet to be handed over at a price higher than the Green God Company's. For example, the trade points the Green God Company gave him could be directly transferred. As for the contribution points, although they couldn't be transferred, their true purpose was to be used in the middle layer. They had no use in the base layer.
Moreover, even if they used their contribution points in the middle layer, due to the restrictions of the middle layer's authority, the items that could be exchanged for with contribution points were limited. In other words, the amount of contribution points one could use was also limited.
When negotiating the price, one would generally exchange their contribution points for various limited items of equal value. After all, whether it was exchanging for trade points or contribution points, one's purpose was to exchange for those limited items. Wouldn't it be better to obtain those limited items in bulk? "Go ahead.
The Green God Company is offering rewards to the top 20 participants this time, so many people want to compete for the top 20 spots. Naturally, the price of contribution points will be more expensive than usual, "Han Yifeng said, shaking his head. This was because he had long since received news that the Green God Company intended to further squeeze these corporations dry and intensify the competition. In fact, the company had even made a special exception for the top 20 participants to exchange for limited items in the middle layer.
Once news of this spread, the price of contribution points would definitely skyrocket.
However, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Guild Leader's actions were excessive. After all, the items that could be exchanged for only a limited number of contribution points. Moreover, the Green God Company wasn't opening the exchange window to the public. As long as one met the required amount of contribution points, the rest of the contribution points would be redundant.
"I understand." Zhuo Linqiu nodded. He then walked towards the Shifeng.
At this moment, the Shifeng was ecstatic.
Just a second ago, he had been a pauper in the Upper Zone. Now, however, he had five million trade points. He could even afford five ordinary houses in the Upper Zone's base layer.
Of course, these trade points were still far from enough to buy a large mansion in the base layer. However, they were more than enough for his daily expenses. At the very least, they were more than enough to support Gentle Snow, Shiuse Qiangwei, and the others' daily lives.
"However, it won't be easy to exchange for so many points next time. It seems I'll have to find a way to obtain a large number of Seven Luminaries Crystals long-term," the Shifeng sighed ruefully.
Five thousand units of Seven Luminaries Crystal was no small number. Yet, even with five million trade points and 50,000 contribution points, he was only able to exchange for five million trade points and 50,000 contribution points. Not only was he still far from entering the top three, but he also wouldn't have enough contribution points and trade points to live in the middle layer.
After all, if he wanted to live in the Upper Zone long-term, he would have to exchange for a large number of resources. In fact, if he wanted to obtain the Upper Zone's reserve slots and the Water of Life, which was worth 30 million trade points and one million contribution points, five million trade points and 50,000 contribution points were nothing compared to the Water of Life.
However, this wasn't particularly difficult for him. After all, he currently lived in the ancient God's Domain. Back then, God's Domain had been extremely rich in resources. The current God's Domain simply couldn't compare to it.
After receiving the five million trade points and 50,000 contribution points, the Shifeng prepared to head to the Upper Zone's entrance to pick up Gentle Snow and Shiuse Qiangwei. After all, this was their first time entering the Upper Zone. If they didn't have someone to guide them, it would be very easy for them to run into trouble.
After all, there were simply too many taboos in the Upper Zone. If they accidentally violated one of these taboos, getting kicked out of the Upper Zone wouldn't be a big deal.
However, before the Shifeng could leave the exchange counter, Zhuo Linqiu stood beside him.
"Guild Leader Shifeng, we meet again." Although Zhuo Linqiu disliked the Shifeng, as Han Yifeng's butler, he still greeted the other party politely.
"Master Zhuo, may I know what business you have with me?" the Shifeng asked calmly as he looked at Zhuo Linqiu.
Although Shi Feng wasn't surprised that Zhuo Linqiu would come looking for him directly, he hadn't expected Han Yifeng to take action so quickly.
Kerui had long since informed him of the various matters regarding the contribution competition. Hence, he knew that those who wanted to compete for the top three spots would secretly purchase contribution points. Meanwhile, he had just exchanged 50,000 contribution points. This was definitely not a small sum. It was practically impossible for those who wanted to compete for the top three spots to not react to this.
"There is indeed something. Moreover, it is good news for you, Guild Leader Shifeng," Zhuo Linqiu said, chuckling. "I believe you should know about the contribution competition, Guild Leader Shifeng. Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush. Our Young Master Han wishes to purchase the contribution points you have yet to exchange for. Moreover, our Young Master Han is willing to pay double the price. What do you think, Guild Leader Shifeng?"
