Chapter 892: Chapter 106: Ten-Year Restriction_2
“Young friend, don’t misunderstand!”
Zhou Yiming waved his hand and smiled, “If the Apex tomb has acknowledged you as its master, I certainly won’t make a move to snatch it…”
“If you indeed have that small world in your possession, our Hong Wu Academy would like to rent it. Also, if there are any magical artifacts you don’t need, you can auction them off to exchange for resources…”
As soon as these words came out, the entire room was in an uproar.
“Zhao Yu has the Apex tomb?!”
“That tomb that has claimed countless lives and even caused tier-four fighters to bleed, is it in Zhao Yu’s hands?!”
Not just ordinary students, even Zhang Hong Yan, Su Jiumei, and others were all staring at Zhao Yu with faces of disbelief.
Initially, both of them were also inside the tomb, and if not for the protection passed down by their families, they might have died there as well.
Just thinking about that terrifying illusion inside the tomb made them shudder with fear.
Especially after Marquis Wei Wu summarized the incident, stating that the illusion had once been a pinnacle fighter among the ultimate fighters.
“Rent the small world?”
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment. He did have some ideas about selling the magical artifacts, but renting out the small world?
“Yes, we want to transform it into a place for training students. Of course, if you have concerns about it, you can choose not to rent it now. We can talk again when you think the timing is right,” Zhou Yiming said with a smile.
Zhao Yu nodded. Seeing that the other party was not forcing him to hand over the small world or strongly insisting on renting it, he then asked, “If I decide to sell the magical artifacts, how much are you willing to offer?”
The conversation between the two wasn’t hidden from others, but it still left the crowd utterly shocked.
“Does Zhao Yu know who he is dealing with?!”
“That’s the vice-principal, an ultimate fighter…”
Everyone was stunned by Zhao Yu’s unyielding and respectful attitude.
Especially people like Zhang Hong Yan. Even they, when facing an ultimate fighter, would give ample respect and face.
Not like Zhao Yu, who treated it as if he was dealing with a peer.
“This kind of bearing, I am inferior to him…” Zhang Hong Yan lamented.
Upon hearing this, Su Jiumei thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
“From Marquis Wei Wu’s description, the Apex tomb you acquired is vast, filled with magical artifacts and treasures as countless as the hairs of a cow. Alone, I’m afraid I can’t handle it…”
Zhou Yiming smiled and said, “So, might as well organize an auction, let everyone in the world compete for it…”
An auction, a method where the highest bidder wins, naturally benefits the seller since many magical artifacts have the potential to sell at a premium.
Zhao Yu naturally had no reason to disagree, but he immediately worried that the person setting the prices might underbid them, so he expressed his concerns openly.
“Don’t worry, the reserve price needs your approval, and each increment will not be less than a certain figure. How about that?”
“Agreed!”
With that, as their discussion continued, an auction that would attract the attention of the whole world was settled.
The auction was scheduled for a week later, and the venue was chosen to be the plaza outside the temple in Qian City.
This timeframe was enough for the strong from the other seven State Cities and the Holy City to arrive.
It seemed just as Zhou Yiming had said, apparently wanting to benefit all in the world.
Under Zhou Yiming’s arrangements, Zhao Yu also checked into the VIP guest room of the Hong Wu Academy.
It was on the third day that Xu Chang Qing came to find him.
“Sorry, I was training in a secluded spot for the past few days, and I didn’t know your news. It was only when someone informed me that I found out…”
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Chang Qing apologized and then gauged Zhao Yu, exclaiming, “By the way, how did you conquer the Apex tomb?!”
“If it wasn’t for the backup left by my grandfather, I might have also died in the tomb…”
She clicked her tongue in wonder. In the excursion to the Apex tomb, aside from a few with tier-four protective measures, nearly all the third-tier had perished within.
And she knew all too well about Zhao Yu’s background. The fact that not only had he emerged unscathed, but he had also become the master of that small world.
“That’s a long story…”
Zhao Yu shook his head, showing no intention of explaining.
Xu Chang Qing, knowing when to stop, didn’t press further but switched topics, “By the way, someone contacted me, wanting me to pass on a message to you…”
“He family’s remnants?” Zhao Yu asked casually.
“You guessed it?”
Xu Chang Qing laughed and then said, “After you checked into the guest quarters of Hong Wu Academy and with the upcoming auction, the tier-four fighter from the He family got quite scared and wants to make peace with you…”
“What’s the price?” Zhao Yu casually asked.
During the past three days, he hadn’t been idly waiting. Zhou Yiming was very thoughtful and had lent him quite a few resources, allowing him to successfully break through to the fourth tier of the True Qi Realm.
With his current condition, if nothing unexpected occurred, he could advance to tier-four within a maximum of a month. Once he reached tier-four, he would become one of the strongest under the ultimate fighters, no longer considering a mere ordinary tier-four fighter as a threat.
“One fourth-tier divine medicine, ten third-tier divine medicines plus various resources…” Xu Chang Qing merely stated the offer without advocating for it, leaving it entirely up to Zhao Yu to decide.
Zhao Yu pondered for a moment. The offer was indeed very good, enough to build another tier-four fighter.
Considering that the He family had only one tier-four fighter, this offer nearly drained their resources.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu didn’t bother to haggle further and nodded, “I agree. From now on, we owe nothing to each other!”
