Hearing the two had decided to participate, Divine Fire Zen Ren scoffed, “Such confidence you hold, but don’t come looking to us for a refund, when none of your disciples returns from the Secret Realm.”
Drunken Immortal responded calmly, shaking his head, “Divine Fire Brother is right. Consider carefully. If your disciples don’t return, wouldn’t that be a waste of Spirit Stones? We are mortal foes, after all. We’d hate to take your money.”
The two Golden Core Real Persons from the Xuan Yin Sect suppressed their anger. These individuals from the Liu Yun Sect were making fun of them. Their remarks were barely tolerable.
“Whether our disciples return or not, you need not worry. After all, it could be your disciples who don’t return. We will be sending nine disciples. Calculate the cost,” said the leading Golden Core Real Person in a chilly tone.
The more the Liu Yun Sect didn’t want them to participate, the more it indicated the lecture was of genuine substance. Otherwise, why would they push away the Spirit Stones that were being freely offered to them?
Divine Fire Zen Ren smirked at this, “Didn’t you learn anything before your cultivation journey? It’s one hundred and fifty thousand per person for nine people. Can’t you do the math?”
“Cough, Divine Fire Brother, they are from heretic sects.” Drunken Immortal coughed intentionally, offering a word of advice.
“I almost forgot, if these scoundrels had attended a day of school, they wouldn’t have fallen into heresy,” said Divine Fire Zen Ren in sudden realization.
The Xuan Yin Sect’s Golden Core Real Person, who had been itching to retaliate, exuded a terrible, icy aura filled with an intense, sinister Yin Qi(harsh/cold vibes).
The leading Golden Core Real Person stopped him once more. “Members of Liu Yun Sect, there’s no need to further provoke us. We of the Xuan Yin Sect will certainly attend this Secret Realm lecture. Here are one million three hundred and fifty thousand Spirit Stones. Please count them.”
With that, he flung a Storage Bag onto the table.
Drunken Immortal picked up the Storage Bag and sent a wisp of his Divine Sense into it for inspection. After a while, he sighed, “Since the Xuan Yin Sect insists on participating, we cannot refuse. Remember, the lecture begins in ten days.”
“Very well, we will send our disciples when the time comes. Farewell.” The two Golden Core Real Persons from the Xuan Yin Sect left. At the same time, Gold Sword Zen Ren got up and escorted them out of the Liu Yun Sect’s boundaries.
After watching the members of Xuan Yin Sect leave, Drunken Immortal laughed, “Divine Fire Brother, your act was quite impressive.”
“I was not acting. I truly detest these guys full of Yin Qi.” Divine Fire Zen Ren wore an expression of disgust as he burned the ground where the two from the Xuan Yin Sect had just stood.
A few days later, of the nine major sects, all but Medicine God Valley had confirmed their participation in the Secret Realm lecture. The three great Heretic Sects naturally chose the first option of paying in Spirit Stones.
The five other sects had different choices. Those with many spots in the Secret Realm chose the second option, whereas those with fewer spots chose the first option.
Among the three Heretic Sects, Xuan Yin Sect had nine spots, Blood Demonic Sect had eight, and Sky Demon Sect got five. Their twenty-two spots together fetched over three million Spirit Stones.
Of the remaining five sects, three chose the first option and the remaining two chose the second. Among those who chose the latter were Sky Sword Sect, which had eleven spots, and Spirit Control Sect, which had six.
For this single lecture alone, more than 5.6 million Spirit Stones would be earned. The value of the Supreme-grade Magic Treasure Wind Thunder Sword that Lin Yi had received was only around one million.
Even Golden Core Real Persons like Golden Sword Zen Ren, who were at the top in terms of their combat power in the Heng Yuan World, couldn’t afford to be so generous. They certainly couldn’t craft such a sword for each disciple.
The ratio of lower-grade Spirit Stones to top-grade Spirit Stones is ten thousand to one. This means those Stones are equatable to 560 top-grade Spirit Stones. It’s worth mentioning that a fairly sizable Spirit Stone vein, controlled by the Liu Yun Sect, only produces a few thousand top-grade Spirit Stones a year.
A single lecture resulted in gains equivalent to half the annual income of one Spirit Stone vein. It was indeed shocking.
After discussing this income, Sect Master Green Jade Zen Ren and other Golden Core Real Persons decided to donate two million Spirit Stones to the Sect, giving the remaining 3.6 plus million to Golden Sword Zen Ren.
Saying it was given to Golden Sword Zen Ren was essentially saying it was given to Lin Yi, knowing his character Golden Sword Zen Ren would not covet these Spirit Stones.
This was because Lin Yi was the person who’d made this possible. Normally, the Sect would take at least two-thirds. But even though the Sect took two million Spirit Stones, it would also give Lin Yi some merit points as compensation.
After Golden Sword Zen Ren returned to Golden Sword Peak, he handed over the remaining 3.6 million plus Spirit Stones to Lin Yi. “Lin Yi, this is the tuition for the Secret Realm lecture. Initially it was over 5.6 million. The Sect took two million, leaving 3.6 million plus, which are all here.”
Lin Yi didn’t accept the Storage Bag. Instead, he cupped his hands and said, “Master, the arrangements for the lecture were all handled by you. I didn’t contribute much. Just give me the remaining change.”
