CHAPTER 95: CHAPTER 89: 9-STAR CITY REVIVAL PLAN: REBOOTING GLORY_2

In the major cities within the Cangling Ancient Country, either they have influential figures, prominent families, or extraordinarily powerful Spirit Beasts holding the fort, or they leverage the culture of Spirit Beasts to attract a crowd.

Originally, Jiuxing City followed the latter route, but now it’s getting worse and worse.

Tang Xuehai, however, said, "Competitions are merely a method, it doesn’t have to be a cow king competition; other contests are also viable."

"For example?"

"In this world, the unknown and desire are what draw people in."

"It seems Dean Tang already has some ideas." Pang Yuanzheng looked at him.

Tang Xuehai stood up and said, "We can hold a Divine Fox-themed treasure hunting competition, aimed at Beastmasters below Level 10."

"Why Level 10?"

"Because Beastmasters who are too advanced have higher expectations, which would raise our costs," Tang Xuehai explained:

"Moreover, more advanced Beastmasters wouldn’t even consider contracting a Divine Fox."

"On the contrary, many Level 10 Beastmasters preparing to contract their second Spirit Beast are more likely to consider a Divine Fox."

"The most important thing is that people are most attracted to free things where they can get a bargain."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After all, everyone loves freebies.

"As expected of Dean Tang, your analysis is reasonable and logical," someone praised.

As soon as Tang Xuehai sat down, Lee Zhen spoke up:

"Actually, if we want to boost the population and the number of Divine Fox Beastmasters, there’s also the matter of price."

"Compared to other basic Spirit Beast cubs, the Divine Fox is more expensive."

"My suggestion is to reduce the price appropriately."

Although Lee Zhen was also standing here, he represented the ordinary public.

After all, the Monster Hunter Guild is composed of countless ordinary people...

Wealthy people wouldn’t join such an extremely dangerous guild.

"Not suitable." Someone immediately stood up and said, "The Divine Fox naturally has its own heritage, lowering the price would be lowering its status."

A few people nodded in agreement.

Lee Zhen smirked because he knew these people opposed it because they were the largest Divine Fox dealers in Jiuxing City, almost monopolizing the trade.

If they lowered the price, their profits would greatly diminish.

Lee Zhen understood this logic, and how could Pang Yuanzheng not? He couldn’t oppose it either, as everyone present were significant figures. He said, "Chairman Lee’s point is not unreasonable; we should seize this event to initiate a flow of attraction and create momentum for the activity."

"Even if we can’t soar overnight, at least we must ensure the population doesn’t keep decreasing."

"How about this, from tomorrow onwards, the price of the Divine Fox will be reduced by thirty percent, and everything will be sold at a seventy percent discount."

"This..." The big dealers didn’t dare to say anything, but Ning Ye stood up and said, "The Ning Family is willing."

The Ning Family is one of the leading dealers with significant influence; if they agree, who dares to oppose?

"Moreover..." Pang Yuanzheng scanned the room and said, "Regarding the funds and items for this treasure hunt..."

Once again, Ning Ye stood up, cupped his hands and said:

"The Ning Family is willing to contribute to Jiuxing City."

Pang Yuanzheng gave Ning Ye an approving look...

The Ning Family has always been wealthy yet taciturn, and they act with enthusiasm.

Others naturally understood this hint, quickly rising to express their willingness to contribute.

Finally, Pang Yuanzheng said, "I am very pleased that you all are willing to contribute to Jiuxing City, so the detailed plan will be designed by Dean Tang and Chairman Lee since they are more familiar with the ruins."

"The timing will be set two months later, before the Cow King Competition in Black Mountain City..."

"The plan shall be named: Reignite Glory!"

...

In the dead of night, Xiaobai opened its eyes beside Three Thousand Cyan Wus, and Lin Chen asked it how it felt.

"Moo~~"

Xiaobai told Lin Chen that the effect was very good.

Moreover, Xiaobai was quite eager to try.

"No." Lin Chen refused, saying, "Test it when we’re back."

If Qin Shaoshao weren’t here, Lin Chen would really fear Xiaobai losing control and hurting others or itself.

Moreover, Lin Chen didn’t believe it was that simple to control the mental erosion of the Barbaric Bloodline.

If it were that easy, there would have been successful cases in literature long ago.

Lin Chen never believed luck could always favor him.

Xiaobai nodded after hearing Lin Chen’s analysis.

"Moo~"

Xiaobai was ready to continue daydreaming, but Lin Chen stopped it, saying, "Take the medicine before training."

"Moo~"

Xiaobai opened its mouth, and Lin Chen tossed the medicine directly in.

After consuming it, Xiaobai seemed to feel something, quickly entering a daydreaming mode...

This advanced Calming Pill proved to be extremely potent.

Lin Chen also turned expectantly, seeing a little fox blowing bubbles in the water, suddenly remembered something, and quickly fished it out.

"Stop practicing, are you getting ready to level up again?"

"Goo~"

"You... Ah." Lin Chen directly carried it on his shoulder.

This little fox entering here is like using cheats; although this place is the Flame Fox’s old lair, it’s still quite exaggerated.

Could it be that this little fox really grasped the avenue of its kin?

....

Next day, when Qin Hao and the others heard about the little fox’s situation, they all burst into laughter.

"Brother Lin, while others can’t wait to upgrade more and more, you are starting to get worried," Cai Yuanji laughed while eating.

"No way." Lin Chen stared at the little fox spitting fire and said, "If it becomes bloated, it won’t be good."

All three, including Zhang Shi, nodded.

Spirit Beasts indeed shouldn’t level up too quickly, especially at lower levels.

Otherwise, when their level gets higher, breaking through will be more challenging.

On Blue Star, there’s a saying:

Leveling up young is bliss for a moment, but constant leveling is constant bliss, until the bottleneck shows its horror.

"Brother Zhang, is Ning Tian confirmed as the candidate for the Spirit Academy test quota from the Inner Courtyard this year?"
