Chapter 211: Bie San Gets Ideas
Bai Yu chuckled, leaned back, and said to them lazily, “Haha, the rewards you mentioned earlier, it’s truly possible to get them this time, but you’ll have to work hard.”
“Because the competition is held in Spirit City, and it’s the first time, Spirit Hall has spared no expense on the rewards to save face.”
“The first place gets seven Spirit Bones of ten thousand years or more, a complete set. Second place gets three, and third place gets one.”
“Although first place is prepared for their own people, second and third place aren’t just for show; there are still things to be gained. And since Spirit Hall only has one team participating, your chances aren’t small.”
“Hiss~!”
After Bai Yu finished speaking, everyone gasped, their mouths agape in surprise. First place was a given, but second and third place also had Spirit Bone rewards?
And adding them up, there were four Spirit Bones, all ten thousand years old. This wasn’t just sparing no expense; it was practically putting their marrow into it!
“Bai Xiaozi, is what you’re saying true? Spirit Hall will really reward Spirit Bones?”
“But even if they reward Spirit Bones, it should only be for first place, right? Just like you said, Spirit Hall only has one team participating. If they reward second and third, wouldn’t it all go to outsiders?”
After his initial surprise, Flender immediately asked, because in his opinion, these rewards seemed a bit too fake. Even if Spirit Hall was a big organization, Spirit Bones wouldn’t be so abundant that they’d just give them away to outsiders, would they?
Bai Yu scratched the corner of his mouth, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. Honestly, this reward was something he and Bibi Dong had discussed and decided on together.
“Hmm, Dean, you’re right. These rewards are indeed specially given to outsiders by Spirit Hall.”
“Specifically, there are two reasons. The first is that Spirit Hall’s team has a severe power gap. If rewards are only given to first place, they would somewhat lose face.”
“Because once the Spirit Hall team’s member information is announced, for other academy teams, these so-called rewards would just be teasing them, not earning favor but instead resentment.”
“And the second reason is that Spirit Hall also has a celebration recently, and releasing these rewards is also to make Spirit City lively.”
Hearing Bai Yu’s words, everyone’s faces showed understanding.
“So that’s how it is, haha. In that case, the Spirit Hall team being too strong also has some benefits.”
“Little freaks, did you all hear that? We can’t even dream of first place, but we must do our best to fight for second place!”
As soon as Flender finished speaking, Yu Xiaogang immediately nodded, taking over the conversation, and surprisingly, he didn’t use his usual raspy voice, but spoke seriously: “Flender is right. Spirit Bones, they are treasures of the blood river! If you miss this opportunity, you’ll only be able to rely on luck to get them in the future.”
Everyone’s breathing quickened, their eyes slightly red. The allure of Spirit Bones was too great for them. Even if they didn’t use them, selling them would bring enough money for them to live a life of luxury and wealth.
Tang San’s face kept changing at this moment, alternating between green and red. Spirit Bones were indeed good things, but he didn’t know if he would have a chance to get one.
After all, even if they got second place, there were only three, but their Shrek Team had a total of eleven people. How could that be enough?
Even if the four substitutes were excluded, there were still seven people, and among these seven, Tang San was only stronger than Oscar and Ma Hongjun in terms of strength.
So, no matter how he looked at it, he wouldn’t get a Spirit Bone, which made the conceited Tang San unable to accept it.
Immediately, Tang San’s eyes darkened, and he muttered to himself:
“That damned Yu Xiaogang is right. Treasures like Spirit Bones are rare. Once I miss this opportunity, it will be hard to encounter them again.”
“I wonder how these Spirit Bones will be distributed then. If they all fall to Zhu Zhuqing and the other two, then so be it. With Bai Yu around, I can’t afford to offend them.”
“But if others get them, perhaps I’ll have to use some means…”
It was only because Bai Yu didn’t know Tang San’s thoughts, otherwise he would have definitely doubled over with laughter.
It must be said, Tang San’s vision was indeed a bit low now. Just ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones were already making him a bit crazy.
But to be honest, even if Shrek won the Spirit Bones, Bai Yu didn’t intend for Zhu Zhuqing and the other two to use them, because he truly looked down on that age limit.
For his women, Bai Yu had long made arrangements, preparing a set of Spirit Bones of fifty thousand years or more for each of them, just waiting for them to break through to Title Douluo, then they could use these Spirit Bones to instantly reach the realm of Super Douluo.
...
A team of over a thousand people departed from Heaven Dou City and, after nearly twenty days, finally arrived at Spirit City.
“Tsk, we’re finally here. This carriage ride is so boring. Good heavens, there are a lot of people! Such a lively scene is rare in Spirit City.”
Bai Yu got out of the carriage and stretched, looking at the incredibly lively Spirit City due to the Spirit Master Grand Competition, and sighed with emotion.
“Bai Ge, were there few people in Spirit City before? That shouldn’t be, right? This place is at least known as the Spirit Master Holy Land; how could there be few people?”
Oscar, who got out of the carriage behind Bai Yu, asked somewhat confusedly.
“It’s precisely because it’s the Spirit Master Holy Land that there isn’t much human traffic. After all, besides merchant teams, no ordinary people come here. Those who come here are basically Spirit Masters.”
Before Bai Yu could answer, Yu Xiaogang, who got out next, gave Oscar the answer. After all, he had stayed here for quite some time and knew this place very well.
Bai Yu ignored Yu Xiaogang’s show-off, turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing and the other two, and said, “Let’s go. While there’s still time, I’ll take you to look around.”
Then the four of them left the Shrek Team and walked towards the city.
“Bai Yu, where are we going? How about we go visit your Saint Child Hall?”
“And Sister Ah Yin, who left early with Spirit Vulture Douluo, should have arrived already. She’s also with you, right? Let’s call her to come along!”
Ning Rongrong hugged Bai Yu’s arm, a hint of curiosity in her eyes. This was her first time in Spirit City, and everything here was new to her.
And she heard from her father, Ning Fengzhi, that on the central mountain of Spirit City, there were various majestic and solemn palaces, quite grand.
Bai Yu raised an eyebrow slightly, glanced at Ning Rongrong, and chuckled, “Are you going to find your Sister Ah Yin? That sounds nice, but you want to visit Spirit Hall’s Holy Mountain, don’t you?”
“But that’s fine too. Ah Yin is quite familiar with this place, so it’s okay for her to take you around and play.”
“Honestly, there are only a few palaces on the mountain. They’re fine the first time you see them, but after seeing them too much, they’re just so-so, nothing special.”
Zhu Zhuqing and the other two pouted. This scoundrel was used to seeing them, which is why he thought they were nothing special. Did he not know how difficult it was for Spirit Masters outside to ascend Spirit City’s Holy Mountain even once!
