Normally, 1 Spirit’s worth can represent the daily food consumption of a quasi-Emperor-level Soul Pet, astonishingly, the value of 1 Spirit is no less than 100 million gold coins. Most importantly, there are rarely any Soul Pet Masters who would exchange their rare and limited Spirits for gold coins.
Normally, gold coins are exchanged for Spirits, and it’s almost impossible to buy Spirits with gold coins. The amount usually has to be doubled. Additionally, with the fluctuation in Spirit resources, the price can also change. During times of scarcity, there have been instances where even 1 billion couldn’t buy 1 Spirit.
Upon hearing this astonishing figure, Chu Mu was left dumbstruck. This means that to feed Mo Ye, Chu Mu himself needs to spend 100 million gold coins every day, and that too without an equivalent exchange!
Chu Mu, able to participate in the World Decree, can be considered relatively well-off among Soul Pet Masters. Normally, there wouldn’t be so many opportunities to possess such a vast amount of funds, let alone 1 Spirit a day!
“This is merely the daily consumption to keep Emperor-level Soul Pets fed. If they often battle, or if you want your Soul Pet to rise to a higher level, the consumption is even more enormous. This is why I told you before, many Soul Pet Masters are dragged down by their Emperor-level Soul Pets, stuck within their own abilities and unable to make any progress.” Fox Elder said.
After Fox Elder said that, Chu Mu broke out into a sweat.
Chu Mu is going to have 3 Emperor-level Soul Pets soon. Under these circumstances, if these Soul Pets didn’t fight, Chu Mu would need to spend more than 300 million gold coins every day! Chu Mu was still struggling for these hundreds of millions not long ago, but in the blink of an eye, it has become his daily consumption!
“Young Master doesn’t need to worry. Every Soul Pet Master has been through this. The consumption is enormous, but given Young Master’s resourcefulness, the income must also be vast. The Space Ring of that woman has about 60 Spirits, so Young Master doesn’t need to worry about getting Spirits for two months. After two months, Young Master will have to solve the problem of Soul Pet food first.” Fox Elder said.
Chu Mu nodded his head. Fox Elder’s previous reminders were not false alarms.
After reaching the Emperor-level, resources become extremely scarce. This, in reality, is the most normal manifestation of increasing strength. Otherwise, everyone can have Emperor-level Soul Pets, and where would be the gap between Monarch and Emperor.
…
Fox Elder said so much to give Chu Mu a wake-up call.
If the question of food is not properly solved, the possibility for Emperor-level Soul Pets to get some Spirit Items for Strength improvement would be much less. It’s expected that in the future, it would be very tough for Chu Mu to strengthen Mo Ye to an Intermediate or High-level Emperor rank. The competition is also bound to turn brutal because Chu Mu will face real human strong ones and wild Overlords!
Chu Mu temporarily doesn’t consider these problems.
Because the announcement for the final glory of the tenth realm has arrived.
Regarding Chu Mu’s reward for achieving the final glory, there were some twists and turns. Some people from the World’s Contest Organizers were planning to directly disqualify Chu Mu, depriving him of this honor.
Afterwards, under the majesty of Soul Hall, they didn’t dare to do so. This credit goes to the Elder whom Chu Mu has never met before.
The final glory of the World Decree represents the most outstanding person among the young generation. When stepping onto the brightly lit Platform of Glory, overlooking the crowd at the World Plaza and seeing the fervor and admiration on countless people’s faces, even someone as steady as Chu Mu couldn’t help but feel a bit shocked.
World Realm, dozens of Earth Realms, each Earth Realm has dozens of regions, and under each region, there are tens of thousands of Eighth-level cities.
And yet Chu Mu has stepped out from an inconspicuous Eighth-level city, slowly making his way up to where he is today, reaching the peak of his generation. Anyone would be thrilled.
If he stands out among the young generation, it means that in the future, he may also be able to ascend to the golden throne and seize the position of the King!
The roaring cheers echoed in Chu Mu’s ears, and he could hear hundreds of thousands of people discussing him!
“What is Chu Mu’s identity after all? Has no one discovered it after such a long time? Could it be that he’s a super expert from the Wanxiang City.”
“I heard that Chu Mu doesn’t have any backing, and his Emperor-level Soul Pet comes from the Forbidden Domain. It was heard during the second stage that Chu Mu ventured solitary into an extremely high difficulty Mysterious Realm of the first stage, completing the hunting task. So, he’s a super expert in wild practice. There is a rumor that he entered a tenth-rank mysterious realm, lurked there for several years, and obtained a super Spirit treasure that could strengthen a Monarch-level Soul Pet to Emperor-level… He originally had more time to raise other Soul Pets’ strength higher through this Emperor-level Soul Pet, but because of the sudden opening of the World Decree’s contest, he hurriedly came back until the end, and took out his ace in the hole!”
“You just keep blowing. It’s impossible for the young generation to walk around Emperor-level territories. And Emperor Spirit Items are rare, even if they exist, they must be guarded by Emperor-level soul pets. It’s impossible for Chu Mu to acquire them, and lurking for more years will not do any good. This Emperor-level Soul Pet must have been enhanced by older generations.”
About the rumor of Chu Mu possessing an Emperor-level Soul Pet, there had been countless versions circulating amongst the general populace. A number of people even composed a complete biography for Chu Mu, incorporating all other Soul Pets that he had appeared with into the narrative. The level of realism astounded Chu Mu himself.
Most of these were rumors from everyday folks, after all, they are the majority. However, for the youth of the four major powers – Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Pet Palace, Soul Pets, and Soul Hall, who had power and resources, it was a shocker that none of them ended up as the ultimate glory holder.
In the Soul Hall, those who had come across Chu Mu like Shang Heng, Ting Lan, Zhao Cheng and Li Zhan, all gave amazed sighs as they watched Chu Mu standing atop the Tenth Realm of Glory.
“When I first met him, his strength was only relatively prominent in the third-tier level, but he leaped into the first-tier…” Ting Lan was the first to get acquainted with Chu Mu, and he could only describe Chu Mu’s incredible growth in strength with awe.
“Hahaha, I never thought that our team leader would be an extraordinary character at the level of our prince. Our prince is a legend, after all. Chu Chen obtaining the ultimate glory this time has created another legend for our Soul Hall. We need to pay more respect to him in the future,” Zhao Cheng laughed.
Even Fang Ze, the Eighth Young Master of the Soul Hall who was definitely out of the ordinary, could only wear a bitter smile in the face of Chu Mu summoning an emperor-level soul pet.
Keep in mind, Fang Ze, the Eighth Young Master of the Soul Hall, had kept a low profile for a long time. In reality, his abilities were stronger than Jiang Yiteng, the Little Prince of the Nightmare Demon Palace. He had been hiding his strength for a power surge in the ninth realm and to seize the final glory of the second-tier trial.
However, the arrival of Chu Mu pushed him and his determined plan entirely to the side, ultimately leaving the final glory of the second-tier trial to another less prominent Soul Pet Master.
“This Chu Mu, he needs to be befriended properly,” said Fang Ze, restraining his frustrations for a while over the glory that should have been his, being claimed by someone else.
Zhan Hong, who was next to Young Master Fang Ze, had an uncomfortable expression. It is clear that his earlier fall-out with Chu Mu because of his failure to recognize a mountain of treasure when he saw one, was now making him worry. He was wondering when to specially visit Chu Mu and apologize.
Zhan Hong had always been self-respecting and arrogant, being disrespectful to anyone other than the Eighth Young Master, Fang Ze. Now that even the Eighth Young Master had extended an olive branch, he dared not object to Chu Mu.
As for the Nightmare Demon Palace side, three great masters of the Nightmare Demon Palace’s second tier decided to retaliate against Chu Mu after being defeated by him.
But Chu Mu’s leap to the first tier, where there was no opponent for him in the first tier, struck hard at the three great masters of the Nightmare Demon Palace – Jiang Yiteng, Xing Yang, and Lu Shanli.
“You can handle it yourselves, I’m not participating, I don’t want to antagonize someone who has an emperor-level Soul Pet,” Lu Shanli announced his withdrawal first.
Chu Mu was able to defeat Lu Shanli easily when he only had a White Nightmare Demon. Although Lu Shanli was full of rancor for Chu Mu, he still knew to accept the truth.
“Damn it, do you think our influence and power in the Nightmare Demon Palace can’t even mobilize the Palace Master and Elder to deal with him?” Jiang Yiteng, who already detested Chu Mu to the bone, was now even more furious seeing Chu Mu standing at the first tier’s Platform of Glory!
“Little Prince… also… I won’t participate in this either,” Xing Yang said in a very low voice.
Seeing that Xing Yang didn’t plan to play dirty too, Jiang Yiteng was even more incensed, “A coward who can’t achieve great things, if this man is not eliminated, he will certainly be our biggest obstacle in the future!”
Lu Shanli glanced at Jiang Yiteng. It was in character for Xing Yang, a weaker master from the Nightmare Demon Palace, to fear Jiang Yiteng. However, Lu Shanli was also of a high-status and he had no fear of Jiang Yiteng. He said coldly, “Our obstacle? You are overestimating yourself. You are close to your 30-year-old deadlock in only a few years. Your soul was seriously injured; having any hope of becoming a Soul Emperor, or having an Emperor-level Soul Pet is already the biggest gift you can hope for. As for Chu Mu, he can’t possibly be our obstacle anymore, because we will never be at the same level as him.”
Lu Shanli was not boasting or self-deprecating, but he was aware that the difference between the Emperor-rank and Monarch-rank was quite significant. Especially now that Chu Mu was skyrocketing, commanding two Emperors, and soon enough, World Lords, Palace Masters, Hall Masters, as well as a few scattered Soul Emperors would not match up to Chu Mu. And they were still hanging around at the Peak Monarch level.
Their trio had fallen from the ultimate glory of the second tier to the bottom and must pick up their statuses again from the second tier, then fight their way to the strongest of the first tier, followed by the most brutal gap crossover from Emperor to Monarch.
There was such a huge gap between them and Chu Mu, unless Chu Mu experienced a major downfall, they could never stand on the same level as him again.
With such a significant disparity in strength, where would this revenge come from?
