Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos-Chapter 263 - 132: Ice Celestial Silkworm, Trading the Venerable Treasure Chest (2)

"The Arena System is now open. The arena codes match the mercenary codes, and the arenas are divided into the Cosmic Ten Thousand Races Competition Zone, various level competition zones, various cultivation system competition zones, and various region competition zones. For details, please enter the Arena System for consultation, Lord..."

"The Four Golden Lists will be announced tomorrow morning at nine o'clock!"

The Celestial Dao Stone's series of prompts disrupted Yi Tian's plans.

Only then did Yi Tian realize, it's a new month again.

Dashao indeed has some insight. He was right again; the Mercenary System has changed.

Yi Tian feels he's about to soar.

The Mist Scroll has appeared, invasions are rampant. Yi Tian doesn't need to be on edge when accepting tasks.

"Detected Wealthiest in the World, with effective trade amount exceeding ten billion Celestial Dao Coins in February, accumulated with the first month, awarded the title of Eleven-star Merchant."

"The Wealth Tower will be upgraded to eleven layers. Lord, please prepare High-Level Stone*500,000, Wood*500,000, Iron*200,000, Copper*200,000, Gold*20,000, Celestial Dao Coin*1,000,000. Once materials are adequately prepared, the upgrade can proceed immediately."

The Celestial Dao Stone prompted Yi Tian.

Yi Tian didn't expect his effective trade amount to surpass ten billion Celestial Dao Coins.

At the same time, Yi Tian understands this trade amount accumulates, meaning that after obtaining One-star Merchant status, it won't downgrade and can slowly accumulate to upgrade.

Lords with One-star Merchant titles will become more numerous.

This "effective" is quite ambiguous. Likely, some Lords are cunningly buying and selling the same item for fun.

Yi Tian didn't rush into it but instead reviewed the Store System.

Immediately, a variety of shops appeared in the Store System, perhaps tens of thousands.

Yi Tian spent over ten minutes reviewing the Store System's rules.

The conclusion: it's a boon for weak Lords; for Lords at Yi Tian's level, it's not much use.

For example, a two-story building occupying one hundred fifty square meters. By posting a 100,000 Celestial Dao Coin guarantee, one can obtain the building's design plans.

Once the Lord completes the building, whatever business is conducted receives Celestial Dao certification.

Even opening a restaurant is possible, so when Lords browse the Store Zone, they can order from this restaurant using the Celestial Dao Stone.

Once the meal is prepared, placed on the counter, a Lord can pay for it, and the dish will teleport directly to the Lord.

Ordering requires a fifty percent deposit; if a Lord regrets the order afterward, the deposit belongs outright to the store owner.

Similarly, in the fresh produce, meat, vegetable, fruit shops, various Lords bring their own skills, etc.

Unlike auction houses, Lords can directly inspect the freshness of vegetables and meat using the Celestial Dao Stone.

And evaluate the texture and quality of goods. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

If Lords find a shop satisfactory in terms of reputation and value, they can follow the shop and become regular customers.

Otherwise, in the vast crowd, next time wanting to eat or buy something, they might never find it again.

In summary, it's novel and fresh, allowing Lords to experience various things and gain immense satisfaction.

Auction house Lords always end up buying nearly rotten meat or vegetables close to spoiling. They've long had enough.

This type of store may not make Lords extraordinarily wealthy, but if the store operates well, even average Lords' income will skyrocket.

"Not bad! In the future, I'll be able to taste various cosmic delicacies! Moreover, items in the Celestial Dao World will become more abundant!"

Yi Tian suspects that the Celestial Dao Rules might be eavesdropping on channel chats all day; Zone 10086 often mocks the "decayed rules" of auction houses. Other zones probably have similar sentiments.

Thus the Celestial Dao Rules brought forth this Store System.

If problems arise, it's the shop owner's concern, unrelated to the Celestial Dao Rules!

Closing the Store System, opening the Arena System, this is intriguing.

Merely as a spectator no Celestial Dao Coins or deposits are required. Lords use the Celestial Dao Stone to access the Arena System, able to watch any battle.

To engage in actual combat, membership is necessary.

To become a member, one must spend 2 million Celestial Dao Coins to purchase a permanent Teleportation Talisman.

True Man PK, without a Teleportation Talisman, reaching the arena is impossible.

The permanent Teleportation Talisman is 1 million more than the Mercenary System, yet this isn't the focus. In reality, the permanent Teleportation Talisman is a priceless treasure; the Celestial Dao Rules practically gifting it, can't you afford 2 million, Lord, just don't play?

Upon becoming a member, if the Lord is a mercenary, it defaults to the mercenary's code.

Though it's True Man PK, there's no mortal combat on the arena. If one side is about to be killed or grievously injured, disabled, the Celestial Dao Rules deem them defeated and teleport them away.

So, within the arena, Lords may only sustain minor injuries; death and disability are impossible!

The Celestial Dao Rules aim to sharpen Lords' combat skills, not incite mortal combat.

Many Lords are commendable in this assessment, yet due to insufficient battle experience, they fall, perish.

Especially mercenaries from Ordinary Region, who before entering the Celestial Dao World were commoners, students, office workers, delicate women, lacking any battle experience?

This group survives thanks to the Mist's greater restrictions on Indigenous People.

In the arena, members may choose to teleport to various cultivation system zones, where Mages, Elemental Masters, Wizards, Qi Refiners, Body Refiners wield knives, spears, swords, halberds, engage in unarmed combat, etc.

Yi Tian thinks he can practice with different races and cultivation systems before bed, enhancing himself.

"Spend 2 million Celestial Dao Coins to purchase permanent Teleportation Talisman."

With resolve, Yi Tian promptly became an Arena member.

"Congratulations, Lord, on becoming an Arena member. May the Lord excel and grow ever stronger! Lord: Second in the World; current record 0 wins 0 losses."
