Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1265: Chapter 418: Seize the Opportunity—The Shock Brought by the Eldest Young Master, Hongmen Scroll_2

The issue is that he still has to buy other cultivation resources, and now that he has started a family and has a pregnant wife, plus he occasionally needs to support his younger siblings, his financial situation is relatively stable.

15,000 Contribution Value was the minimum transaction price. To secure a bid, it would take at least 20,000 to 30,000 Contribution Value. To maximize the effect, a lot of precious cultivation resources would need to be paired. He calculated that if he wanted to spend Contribution Value for one day of cultivation, he would need to prepare at least 40,000 to 60,000 Contribution Value.

This expense is something many people, even if they can afford it, are reluctant to spend.

In fact, those with the financial means to compete for those 150 cultivation spots were only around two hundred people in the whole camp. Excluding the Directors of the Eight Departments, the rest were either the chief officers of the Eight Departments, or Commanders and Vice Commanders in the military, all with a rank of at least the fifth grade or higher.

These people, whether for themselves or for their children and descendants, were truly spending money every day to compete. As for others, they typically only spent money to bid when they were facing a breakthrough or had accumulated enough cultivation resources to prepare for a retreat.

With Xiang Liang’s current assets, he clearly belonged to the latter group.

Therefore, last October, when he found out the Minister allowed him to advance his Martial Arts Pavilion cultivation spot to quickly enhance his strength, Xiang Liang was so excited that he nearly knelt to thank Xia Chuan.

The so-called advance was to allow him to use his future cultivation slot in one go ahead of schedule.

To enhance his strength as quickly as possible, he had only left three times since entering the Martial Arts Pavilion on the sixth of October of last year.

The first time was to return home to instruct his wife to deliver meals daily; the second was when his father, Xiang Ping, returned from his leave in Zhaoyang; the third was on the New Year’s Day, half a month ago, at the Cold Yuan Banquet.

After more than sixty days of relentless cultivation, having used up his Contribution Value down to only 160,000, he had advanced his strength by five levels. Xiang Liang felt a sense of excitement but even more so a reluctance.

He was truly reluctant to leave the Martial Arts Pavilion. If he could remain inside to continue his cultivation, how many years of hard work would he save...

”That’s enough. I can’t be greedy. The Minister’s standard for me was 10 levels, and now I’ve reached 11 levels, which exceeds the requirement. Moreover, I don’t have much Contribution Value left. If I continue cultivating, I won’t even be able to afford a Yangyuan Pill. I should hurry up and take my position at Hongmen to earn more Contribution Value; that’s the right path!”

Xiang Liang shook his head to suppress his reluctance, and after finishing his cultivation, he slowly stood up, quietly bypassing those around him who were still cultivating, and headed downstairs.

The Martial Arts Pavilion is divided into five levels. The top two levels are specifically for storing martial arts skills and techniques. The third level is exclusively for Cold Resistance Level cultivation, the second level for the Earth-digging Realm Limit, and the first level for children aged 6 to 15.

Xiang Liang had just reached the second floor when he discovered many people were rushing toward the first floor, and even from the rear, the third floor that he had just left, many from the Cold Resistance Level were hurrying downstairs.

”No one’s cultivating anymore. What are you all going downstairs for?”

”To watch the excitement!”

”The first floor is full of kids. What’s there to see?”

”The Eldest Young Master! It’s his first day coming to the Martial Arts Pavilion for cultivation today!”

”The Eldest Young Master?”

”Yes! I almost forgot. The Eldest Young Master just turned six today, and he’s already come to cultivate at night. Let’s go see!”

......

Upon hearing the discussions of those going downstairs, Xiang Liang instantly realized, showing a strong curiosity, and quickly headed to the first floor.

In the Great Xia, the only person who could be called the Eldest Young Master by everyone was none other than Xia Chuan’s eldest son, Xia Yuzong.
