"It's not about haggling, we really need 6540," Li Changzhou said.

"I know I've been tricked, but since you said it, 6540 it is, I'll pay it." Chunhuang tilted her head to the side, propped up by her hand, her white hair slightly raised by her fingers, giving her a messy beauty like someone who had just woken up.

"How about this skill level of 300?" Little Radish pondered, biting his nails. His small brows furrowed tightly, and he was caught in a great dilemma, looking like he was preparing to take out a 30-year loan to buy a house.

"Woo~" the butterfly responded.

“Miss Yang, she’s trying to sow discord,” Li Changzhou said to Yang Qinglan, pointing at the Spring Emperor.

"Pay up." Yang Qinglan took out her ID card and asked Chunhuang to transfer the money.

The Spring Emperor didn't insist on giving Li Changzhou his identity card, and instead smiled as he gave Yang Qinglan 6540 game coins.

"They're so rich!" Li Qianxia said enviously.

"Have you ever heard of a concubine's smile after riding through the dust?" The Spring Emperor's beautiful eyes fell on her. "If it weren't for the fact that attacking each other is not allowed in the station, I could have everyone transfer their game coins to me right now."

During their conversation, Yang Qinglan transferred game coins to Li Changzhou.

In total, after deducting the 10,000 for the "Divine Fire Diagram", there is 1,770 left, which can be used to buy one or two B-level skills (B-level skills range in price from 500 to 1,500).

Of course, some tickets will still need to be reserved, as there will be no ticket reward in the second phase; you will need to buy your own tickets.

"Keep the things with you for now," said Chunhuang. "I'll come to Mingcheng to find you, and then I'll give them to you."

"If we give it to you, what are we going to do with it?" Li Qianxia asked.

"I have a plan, I'll tell you when we meet," the Spring Emperor said with a smile.

She stood up, ready to leave, but then glanced at the conflicted little radish: "Don't worry about it. It makes me feel sorry for you. Here's 1,000. Use it to buy whatever you like."

"Wow!" Little Radish's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed a phrase he had learned from Li Qianxia.

“And you,” Chunhuang looked at the little butterfly again, “you’ve worked hard as my rickshaw driver, here’s 200 for you.”

"Whoosh!" The swallowtail butterfly flapped its wings vigorously twice.

After transferring the money, Chunhuang gave Yang Qinglan another deep look, chuckled contemptuously, and strode away with his long legs.

"It's okay, Qinglan!" Li Qianxia held Yang Qinglan's hand. "It doesn't matter if we don't have money, we can lie to her!"

“It’s normal for Fairy Gushe to be poor,” Li Changzhou comforted her.

"You two, from now on, we'll split the bill when we eat out," Yang Qinglan said.

"No, we—"

Before Li Qianxia could finish shouting, the broadcast sounded again—no, it wasn't a broadcast, it was the sound of the Value Game.

[Game Announcement: Phase Two testing completed in October; some rules changed]

[Given that players such as "Master" (white card player) and "King of Black Mist" (black card player) are maliciously delaying the game, being passive and lazy, and having low game intensity, and utilizing time to develop their potential, the game time will be shortened in the future.]

[Each player has a unique main quest*1 per instance. Side quests will be triggered automatically. Players must return within ten minutes of completing the main quest (after returning, players can disembark early or stay in the carriage to wait for teammates; time flows normally within the carriage)]

Xiaoshuting app

[If a player with a black card fails the main quest, they will be hunted down in the real world by three players with white cards who also failed the main quest. The game will continue until one side is defeated; otherwise, the next game cannot be started.]

[-Task notifications are now available, allowing players to receive real-time task reminders.]

[A 'Designated Duel Token' is now available in the waiting hall. After purchasing it, you can enter a player's ID (e.g., 'Master') to encounter the designated player in the instance. Both players will receive a notification, triggering a half-hour 'duel'. The winner will gain all of the loser's game currency and a random skill.]

[Public announcement complete]

Um?

What's the meaning?

It's the white card player "Master" again, and the black card player "King of Black Mist". I'm not the only one stalling for time, why am I being singled out?

That's fine, at least it helps to hide one's identity. But what does "master" mean in the last sentence?

Li Changzhou absolutely adores value games.
