Chapter 96

Bu Lige and the others were naturally paying attention to Bai Lao and Ji Wuhui. They were all very curious about how the two experts who had advanced to the Dao would fare in the Tower of Trials.

But when they saw the scene on the display, they were a little surprised.

"The starting space seems different from yesterday," Bu Shiyi frowned slightly.

Bu Lige nodded. "Yes, there's a small tower and a platform. I can guess that the small tower is likely the place for the Tower of Trials game, but what is that platform?"

Yao Ziyan, who had finished breakfast, hurried over to them upon hearing their conversation.

Seeing the picture on the monitor, she couldn't help but say, "It really is different. Boss, what's going on?"

Several people turned their eyes to Luo Chuan.

Luo Chuan said plainly, "As you have seen, this is the new mode of the Tower of Trials, the Arena. What you played before was called Challenge Mode."

"Challenge mode?"

"New mode?"

"Arena?"

"Boss, please explain!"

Several people stared at Luo Chuan eagerly.

Luo Chuan's expression remained unchanged as he said, "Arena, as the name suggests, is a place for players to compete. There are also various battle modes: single-player, double-player, multiplayer..."

A few people nodded, starting to understand, with a fiery look in their eyes.

The idea of being able to compete with other cultivators in a completely fair manner was truly exciting!

Then Luo Chuan went on to add, "Every battle in the arena requires the payment of corresponding spirit crystals. For Body Refinement, Qi Condensation, and Foundation Establishment realm battles, you need to pay ten spirit crystals. For Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Dao Seeking realm battles, you need to pay one hundred spirit crystals. The price is based on the highest strength of both parties. If both sides are in the same realm, the lower amount is used. Of course, both parties can choose their preferred realm."

Everyone: ...

Yes, this sounds like the boss!

Luo Chuan hadn't finished yet. "Additionally, the arena also has a winning points ranking system. Those who rank first can get extra game time in the Tower of Trials as a reward."

Game time as a reward?

Hearing this, their breathing became hurried.

To be honest, they felt that the three hours of playtime in the Tower of Trials every day was too short. Often, the time was used up before the battle even started!

But the rules of the owner's shop were strict, and they couldn't do anything about it.

Now that there was an additional way to earn extra game time, how could they not be excited?

However, Luo Chuan's next words made them a little disappointed.

"Of course, because there are too few players now, the winning points ranking system is temporarily closed," Luo Chuan said blankly.

"Ahhhhh! Boss, don't your conscience hurt when you say this?!" Bu Lige almost screamed up at the sky.

The others also smiled bitterly.

Luo Chuan remained unmoved.

Soon, their attention shifted.

"Jiang Shengjun, do you have the courage to fight?" Bu Lige asked, looking at Jiang Shengjun with eagerness.

"Heh! Who's afraid of whom? I'll beat you so badly you won't know east from west!" Jiang Shengjun sneered.

Bu Shiyi looked at the clamoring two and sighed helplessly.

She didn't think about fighting them because, with her strength, even if the realm was the same, there would be no suspense.

However, if she could use this to fight against the strong, it would be a good opportunity!

As she thought this, Bu Shiyi couldn't help but set her eyes on Bai Lao and Ji Wuhui.

I wonder what Bai Lao and Ji Wuhui, who were regarded as opponents by Bu Shiyi, would think if they knew?

...

In the Tower of Trials, Bai Lao and Ji Wuhui unanimously chose the arena mode.

Curiosity got the better of them; they both wanted to see what this new platform was.

Suddenly, an information panel about the arena mode appeared.

The content was basically the same as what Luo Chuan had explained.

Lao Bai and Ji Wuhui checked the information carefully.
