"Are you for real?" Yuan Tiexin's expression changed slightly. ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Little ↓ ↓ ↓ said:
The Strengthening Device was a valuable item that had only recently become available. It was also extremely rare. Not only would it allow players to fight for longer periods of time, but it would also save them a lot of time on boring travel and repairs.
Bronze Mounts were also a tool that the various large Guilds coveted.
Unfortunately, obtaining a Bronze Mount was simply too difficult. Moreover, even after Guild members reached Level 40, most of the Guild's experts could only use Common Mounts. Although Bronze Mounts were not much faster than Common Mounts, they could support players in battle, significantly improving their field combat capabilities.
As for Guild Mounts …
The Stable Design alone was enough to give Super Guilds a headache. Now, they couldn't even find a trace of it, much less tame a Mount.
A large part of the reason why the Secret Pavilion was optimistic about Ling Yi was the Guild Mount.
By the time mainstream players reached Level 40, the Ling YI Society would have a massive advantage. If the Secret Pavilion included the Ling YI Society's resources, the Guild could quickly expand into several neighboring countries and become an existence that could rival super-first-rate Guilds. Otherwise, the Secret Pavilion wouldn't have offered such a high price.
"Of course. The only question is whether or not the Secret Pavilion is interested," Shifeng said, smiling.
"It seems that I've underestimated the Ling YI Society. I hadn't expected you to have such a foundation." Yuan Tiexin scratched his forehead. If the Secret Pavilion had offered anything else, the Secret Pavilion would have rejected the offer 100% of the time. However, the Strengthening Device and Bronze Mounts might be of interest to the Secret Pavilion. "However, I'll have to contact the Guild Leader first."
"Alright." Shifeng understood that Yuan Tiexin did not have the qualifications to make such a decision.
Following which, Yuan Tiexin left the reception room alone. After a dozen or so minutes, he returned. His previously hesitant gaze was now filled with determination.
"I've already contacted the Guild Leader. This matter is negotiable. The Secret Pavilion is willing to provide five training slots. However, you must provide 100 Bronze Mounts and 10,000 Strengthening Devices. This is non-negotiable," Yuan Tiexin stated resolutely.
"You're asking for too much. It's not like you can guarantee that you'll nurture five Domain Realm experts." Shifeng frowned slightly. Although the simulation training quota was precious and required a lot of high-grade energy, it should not be so expensive.
According to the current market price, a Bronze Mount would cost around 300 Gold. However, there was no supply even if one had the money. Hence, nobody would actually sell a Bronze Mount. If one truly wanted to sell a Bronze Mount, they might even sell it for 500 Gold. After all, Bronze Mounts were simply too rare right now. In terms of quantity, they were not inferior to Epic items.
One hundred Bronze Mounts would be worth 50000 gold coins!
According to the current market price, 10,000 Strengthening Devices would cost about 100000 gold coins. In total, that would be 150,000 gold coins!
To a first-rate Guild, 150,000 Gold was an astronomical sum. Even though the Secret Pavilion was a transcendental power, it was still a massive sum. Who knew how long it would take the Secret Pavilion to gather the necessary funds?
Meanwhile, 150,000 Gold wasn't enough to purchase so many Mounts and Strengthening Devices. Now, however, only five slots were available.
This was basically using Ling Yi's resources to pay for the Secret Pavilion's trainees.
"Training quotas are rare. There are only so many available each year. The Guild can't even compete for them. I'm already surprised that the Guild Leader is willing to sell them to the public," Yuan Tiexin said, shrugging.
"It's not that Ling Yi doesn't have those resources. Only, I want ten slots. Uncle Yuan, you should know that now that the Mind Space System has been activated, this is the best opportunity to compete for them. If you don't seize this opportunity now, it will be more difficult in the future." Shifeng did not lose his temper. Instead, he chuckled and said, "Moreover, it doesn't matter whether the Secret Pavilion has those ten slots or not. With those ten slots, the Secret Pavilion won't be able to nurture more Refinement Realm experts, much less a Domain Realm expert. On the other hand, without those ten slots, the Secret Pavilion will gain the upper hand. It will be easier to attract more major corporations to invest in the Guild in the future, right?"
Wen Hua could not help but send Shifeng a look of disdain.
When Shifeng spoke these words, he spoke as if the training quotas were worthless. Countless first-rate Guilds dreamed of obtaining these quotas. How could they be cabbages that could be bought from the streets? There were only so many Advanced Energy Sources on the market. The Secret Pavilion had to spend an astronomical amount of money to compete for these Advanced Energy Sources each year.
Shifeng paid no heed to Wen Hua's disdain.
He was very familiar with the Mind Space System's influence on the various major corporations. As long as he could create an Advanced Private Space, he wouldn't have to worry about a lack of investments. God's Domain's various major powers would definitely go crazy over this opportunity.
Yuan Tiexin was shocked when he heard Shifeng's words. He had never thought that Ling Yi had hidden her strength so deeply. Even though the Secret Pavilion had done everything it could to collect Bronze Mounts, they had only managed to collect less than 30 of them. Yet, Ling Yi had actually offered 100 Bronze Mounts without hesitation. Not to mention, the currently popular Strengthening Devices.
"I'm afraid …" Yuan Tiexin had originally intended to reject Shifeng's offer, using this opportunity to lower his price. However, when he noticed that Shifeng was about to stand up and send him off, he immediately changed his mind and said, "I still need to discuss this with the Guild Leader."
He had to admit that Shifeng had grasped the Secret Pavilion's lifeline.
At this moment, Yuan Tiexin finally understood why Ling Yi's Workshop had been handed over to a youngster like Shifeng. The latter was as cunning as an old fox.
Left with no choice, Yuan Tiexin contacted his Guild Leader once more.
After some time, Yuan Tiexin entered the room. Sighing, he looked at Xiang Shifeng and said, "Our Guild Leader has agreed in the end. However, he has a condition. You must deliver the goods within five days."
"That's impossible. Bronze Mounts and Strengthening Devices are not cabbages. I can only guarantee that I'll give you ten Bronze Mounts and 2,000 Strengthening Devices within five days. I'll hand over the remaining items within twelve days," Shi Feng said, shaking his head straightforwardly.
He did not have a single Bronze Mount on hand. Producing a Bronze Mount required time. It was impossible for him to complete the production within five days.
However, once he completed the Titan Trial and the Meditation Room and Special Workshop, he could complete the production within 12 days.
"You …" For some reason, Yuan Tiexin felt that he had been duped by Shifeng. However, there was no point in regretting it now. Bronze Mounts and Strengthening Devices were simply too important to the Secret Pavilion. "Alright, then. Let's sign the contract now."
After both sides signed the contract, Yuan Tiexin handed Shifeng ten of the 20 black cards he had brought with him.
"These ten login cards are proof of identity for logging into the simulation training system. They are only valid for one year, so you must keep them safe. If you lose them, we won't replace them. When the time comes, you can log into the Secret Pavilion's newly developed training space through a virtual gaming cabin," Yuan Tiexin warned. "However, there is one thing you must take note of. It's best to prepare some S-rank Nutrient Fluids. The various high-intensity battles in the training space are no joke."
After saying so, Yuan Tiexin left the reception room, leaving behind the ten black cards on the table.
"Liang Jing, call Fire and the others over." Shifeng was indescribably excited as he looked at the black cards. However, he did his best to suppress his emotions as he instructed Liang Jing, who stood outside the room.
