9: Get rich

[Congratulations to the player for becoming the first player to obtain the official position: Squad Leader!]

[Reward player with an Earth-tier treasure: Clear Jade Thumb Ring]

[Clear Jade Thumb Ring: Can increase player's cultivation efficiency, cultivation efficiency +20%]

A treasure that speeds up cultivation efficiency!

Unlike the Bloodburst Talisman which has limited uses, this treasure can be used permanently and increases cultivation efficiency. It could be said to be the most useful treasure for him right now!

Lin Yue eagerly put it on his finger. Immediately, a cool sensation spread, and his heart became incredibly calm.

He circulated the Killing God Art, feeling his mind free of distractions, completely immersed in another world.

Time passed unknowingly until evening when Lin Yue finally stopped.

With the foundation built from the past few days of cultivation, plus the recent practice of the Killing God Art, his Martial Prowess had already increased by one point.

His Killing God Art combined with the Clear Jade Thumb Ring might not show much difference in the short term, but over time, the gap between him and other players would grow wider and wider!

Now he regretted it a bit. Should he not have acted so cunningly—bah, so outstandingly—and instead laid low for a while, following the normal progression? This kind of rapid promotion by two ranks was somewhat unfavorable for his development!

He had now missed the rewards for the Centurion and Squad Leader official positions. Although having many subordinates now was impressive, the loss was equally significant!

Should he make a mistake to get demoted and farm the rewards?

No, he shouldn't, Lin Yue shook his head, pondering. With so many players in Great Xia, he certainly wasn't the only one who coincidentally possessed a Body-Illumination Token.

Players who had infiltrated Great Qin must be secretly accumulating strength, and there must even be players within the military camps!

If he really deliberately got demoted and was overtaken by other cunning players, he would regret it. To give up all subsequent rewards for these two rewards—everyone knew how to choose.

Afterward, he opened the regional chat panel and started browsing. This was one of his few hobbies and channels for obtaining information, so he would check it every night.

Messages refreshed quickly: some marked Mountain Bandit locations, some recruited players for Mountain Bandits, some recruited players for guilds, some sought trades, some looked for gaming partners, and some couldn't pass moderation.

Although this game enforced real-name registration, for some reason, the official supervision was very weak, or rather, there was no supervision at all!

This led to the game's regional chat being filled with inappropriate content.

Fortunately, minors cannot log into the ascension game, otherwise, it might harm the future generations of the motherland.

He didn't want to deal with any of this. After taking a few screenshots, he posted information about selling silver.

Lin Yue: "Selling silver, one tael of silver for one thousand dragon coins!"

Wang Lu: "How much silver do you have?"

Lin Yue: "Not much, one hundred taels."

Wang Lu: "Big shot!"

...

Countless players praised him, all feeling incredible. Most people only had a few copper coins left, so how did he have one hundred taels of silver? Could it be that he wasn't playing the same game as them?

Silver was still a scarce commodity for players, so he wasn't worried about selling it.

Sure enough, many people quickly added Lin Yue as a friend. Lin Yue accepted them one by one and started chatting.

Zong Ming: "Brother, can I haggle?"

Lin Yue: "How much are you planning to buy?"

Lin Yue knew that not many people in reality could immediately come up with 100,000 dragon coins.

Even if they could, not many would use it to top up a game, so he was prepared to sell it in separate batches.

Zong Ming: "I want it all!"

Good heavens, he was a rich man! Lin Yue thought for a moment and typed out a line.

Lin Yue: "Then how many dragon coins are you willing to offer?"

Zong Ming: "90,000"

Lin Yue: "How about 95,000? It wasn't easy for me to get it."

Lin Yue began to bargain with him. Losing 10,000 dragon coins at once was a bit unacceptable for him; this money didn't just fall from the sky.

Zong Ming: "Brother, sell it to me for 90,000. I don't have that much money."

Lin Yue: "Say that price again?"

Zong Ming: "90,000. I'm still a student [Pleading face emoji]."

Lin Yue: "Even if you were an animal, it wouldn't work."

Lin Yue said and then blacklisted him. He was truly annoyed; he couldn't understand how someone could say such a thing.

Next, Lin Yue chatted with a few other buyers, and without exception, they were all ridiculously outrageous, absolutely absurd!

Miss, are you serious? That's 100,000! How can you even say that? Even if yours were gold-plated, it wouldn't be worth 100,000!

While Lin Yue was feeling depressed, a trade application popped up directly, and the name was actually Zhao Bo!

Without a word, the other party transferred the dragon coins from their card into the trade application. Lin Yue only needed to transfer 100 taels of silver into the trade to complete it.

The game would automatically determine if the items transferred by both parties matched the trade content. If one party did not respond or the item transferred was different from the setting, the trade would automatically be canceled, and both parties' items would be returned, making it very safe.

And the game promised that all transactions would be confidential, meaning that the trading parties could not find each other through transfer records; the only account they could find was the game company's!

As for which of the five great philanthropists was operating the company, it remained a mystery.

Lin Yue had already bound his bank card to the game during his free time, so he could complete the transaction immediately.

Lin Yue thought for a moment and then transferred one hundred taels of silver. The transaction was successful!

Soon, Lin Yue received a deposit notification from the game. Could it be that this Zhao Bo was a rich person?

He spent these 100,000 dragon coins as if they were 10 yuan!

Lin Yue was in a great mood. When the transaction was completed and the money arrived in his bank card, the feeling was completely different from what he had imagined!

He rolled back and forth on the large bed in the private house provided for a Squad Leader, overflowing with excitement.

He really earned 100,000 yuan from the game?

He thought for a moment and then quit the game, wanting to see the balance in his bank card with his own eyes!
