Start With Contracting Sprites

Of course, Su Hao also wouldn’t tell them that everything was hidden under Ah Yan’s robe. It was obviously a thousand times better at storing items than at storing life forms. It didn’t need to keep spitting them out before swallowing them back in again.

It was just that Ah Yan had been hiding in Su Hao’s shadow for a long time. Was he being shy and unwilling to come out?”

Su Hao shook his head, and dismissed the thought.

How could a domineering male sprite like Yama Ghost King be shy? It was all his misunderstanding.

He continued to straighten his ears and listen to the specialists’ analysis and evaluation of various treasures, while conveniently taking some Intelligence Points from those unfamiliar items as he listened.

It was very pleasant.

Yama Ghost King’s full set of cultivation, talent ability cultivation, advanced unique skills learning, secret heritage concept… All of that combined would probably cost at least 150 to 180 Intelligence Points.

After all, he knew less about ghost-element sprites, so the discount was also less.

But for a trip to Ghost City, even if he had only explored for less than ten hours, the Intelligence Points he gained were still more than what he needed to nurture Ah Yan.

When the Yama Ghost King was born, Su Hao had already gotten dozens of points. It was probably taken from Ah Yan to be used on Ah Yan.

He wasn’t in a hurry, but there were only about 30 people after all. When specialists appraised things, they also gave priority to evaluating their value. Before long, it was his turn.

Su Hao put down his backpack. The staff member wearing gloves quickly took out the things inside one by one.

Most of the items inside were rewards from passing the stages, as well as some smaller items he had picked up when he was looting Ghost City in the beginning.

The overall value wasn’t low, especially the sheepskin scroll and medicine.

In front of him, someone also took out similar items.

The goatskin scroll mostly recorded the cultivation methods of ghost-element sprites… The old specialist quickly figured out the approximate value of the two items and the official acquisition rate of Dragon Nation.

“We will purchase it from you according to 60% of the evaluated value. In addition, you have the right to know the research relating to the related items.”

60% wasn’t low. The cross-border tax was already more than 40%. The items fetched pretty good prices anyway.

Among them, the Sprite Trainer could decide if they wanted to sell the more common materials… If they didn’t, they just had to pay a tax.

Things like sheepskin scrolls and potions with scientific research value were out of the question. They had to be sold to the officials and couldn’t be taken away by the Sprite Trainers.

Just now, there were Sprite Trainers who wanted to take away the potions, but they weren’t allowed to.

Su Hao knew the rules and still said, “I want to keep one bottle of this medicine.”

Before the old specialist could speak, the young assistant in his early thirties beside him frowned.

“Do you even understand? Giving the potion to a sprite to use is a waste! Only research can bring out its value, bringing out ten to a hundred times its value! This is also a rule of Dragon Nation. How many times do I have to repeat myself!”

“Yes, I want to use it for research.”

“What does a Sprite Trainer like you know about research… Uh?”

The plain and ugly young man’s gaze moved down and landed on the table, on a card.

It was a card that he had always dreamed of but had never been able to obtain.

High-level Sprite Cultivator credentials!

The profile picture on it was very similar to the young Sprite Trainer in front of him, he was also very handsome!

Then…

The plain and ugly young man raised his head a little stiffly and saw a smile on the other party’s handsome face.

He lowered his head again, then raised it again. After repeatedly comparing, he finally had to believe that this person in front of him, who was at least a few years younger than him, was a high-level Sprite Cultivator!

According to the rules of the Dragon Nation, research items had to be submitted, but there was another rule, and that was… high-level Sprite Cultivators could choose to keep a portion of the special items and conduct research themselves.

That’s right, high-level Sprite Cultivators had special privileges!

Who could have thought that Su Hao was actually a high-level Sprite Cultivator!

The plain and ugly young man forcefully held up a smile and was on the verge of tears.
