Chapter 1471 – Yu Bing’s Invitation

“The Ice Palace test is graded based on the number of treasures you can find on the snow mountain peak- but you can also steal from each other. In other words, the strong eat the weak there, and the one with the most treasures in the end wins,” Yu Bing said, “During the test, everyone will be given a piece of ice mountain jade- it’s said that this jade is what rates the treasures you’ve obtained, and it even has recording purposes. In other words, it’s not possible for you to smuggle out treasures- unless someone were to take it from you, but then it would indicate to the jade that you no longer have it on your body.”

“Wow, really?” Lin Yi was a bit surprised- though this was to be expected of an ancient sect. It wasn’t much for them to have such a mysterious item.

“Yeah!” Yu Bing nodded, “So, if you really want the fruit, there are two routes- win the test and get the treasure exchange rights. Or, run away during the test. There is no right answer when choosing which route to take- if taking the first route, it could be that even if you do win and get the right, the palace may not even have the fruit- or it might not want to give you the fruit at all, and there would be nothing you could do about it. The second is more simple, but who knows whether you could even find the fruit and even be able to leave- even if we team up, we won’t be able to fight those people from the Ice Palace!”

Yu Bing naturally treated himself as a teammate of Lin Yi, helping him analyze things from Lin Yi’s perspective- this moved Lin Yi quite a bit!

The two knew each other because of Yu Ning, and at that time, Yu Bing wanted to test if this man his sister liked was worth her affections- so the two fought! The two used to only be Golden class masters though, but now they were Mystics!

“The second method is a good way though, you don’t have to worry about not being able to run- I’ll let my friend eat it during the test, so when it disappears the Ice Palace naturally wouldn’t have evidence and won’t find out anything,” Lin Yi smiled, “I’m just worried that I won’t be able to find it…”

“Eat it?” Yu Bing’s eyes widened- Yu Bing’s eyes widened- everyone knew that these treasures were all good stuff, but you couldn’t just eat them directly, they needed to be refined into medicine and elixirs by a medicinal master of the house! Eating it directly may not even work and could ruin the qi inside you!

He had never heard of anyone eating a treasure raw before- even if they did, they would have to eat it one small piece at a time- otherwise even you body exploding was a possibility.

“My friend’s situation is a bit unique- it’s not for practitioning. Eating this fruit- it’s for saving a life,” Lin Yi had confidence- Liju mentioned that the fruit could be eaten directly, though there were consequences like a weak body and a shorter life, as well as the inability to practition. With Xiaoxiao’s situation now, however, with her barely hanging on to her life- being able to live on was good enough. There was no time to be concerned over the other things!

“Then… Where’s your friend?” Yu Bing asked, curious.

“Downstairs in my car, in an ice container. I’ll bring her with me to the test,” Lin Yi said, “The problem is, do I have the right to join this test? You all have an invitation letter, but I don’t…”

“The letter is just to inform the participants- you don’t necessarily need it,” Yu Bing explained with a shake of his head, “As long as you have the qualifications, even the people who only heard of this can join themselves. There are no special requirements- one of their goals is to earn money, and the other is to replenish their outer disciples!”

“Earn money?” Lin Yi asked.

“Entering the test requires you to pay one hundred million as a fee- and it’s not refundable. There are over a hundred people joining- how much can the Ice Palace earn in one go?” Yu Bing smiled, “They’re an ancient sect, and don’t have any intention of maintaining a business- but how are they supposed to maintain such a large group without funds? This is how they do it. Plus, becoming an outer disciple may seem like something amazing for people like us, but it’s basically just working in the Ice Palace- the core disciples of the sect have to focus on practitioning and don’t have time to do work, so they give all these chores of cooking or sweeping the floor to the outer disciples. You are basically just providing free labor, while getting the occasional mentor guidance and practitioner elixirs on the side.”

“Ah.. It seems like they are really getting everything out of this deal!” Lin Yi nodded.

“But there’s not much to be done about it- one side wants to get extorted and the other wants to extort. They’re not forcing anyone to join this test, it’s just that everyone is treating it like a big deal,” Yu Bing said, “You wanting to join the test is possible, but you need to pay one hundred million as well. Is that a problem? If so, I can help you out.”

“That part’s fine,” Lin Yi shook his head- Chu Pengzhan had already gone through his stage of difficulty so borrowing one hundred million from him wasn’t a problem. If he really had to, he even had House Liu and House Wu to help him out.

“Alright, one more thing- I think my cousin Yu Shan will team up with the two Zhao’s, and will be interfering with the progress of outsiders- should we go as one team?” Yu Bing invited Lin Yi then and there.

“No problem!” Lin Yi nodded, “But our strength is a bit weaker than theirs- your little brother Yu Shan is Mystic mid class peak, right?”

“How did you know?” Yu Bing was a bit surprised that Lin Yi even knew that- to the point where he could tell Yu Shan was mid phase peak- after all, he had a little more to go to get to that stage.

“I can see it,” Lin Yi smiled, “You’re mid phase peak, and I’m mid phase peak too, though I have been showing some signs of breaking through these few days, but I still haven’t. Plus, House Zhao has one mid phase peak and another late phase- in the test, if we were to fight against each other, it’d be more difficult for us.

“I didn’t know you could understand the opponent’s strength level this well- you’ve already checked them to such precision?” Yu Bing was pleasantly surprised- he naturally knew of Qikun’s strength, but not Qijiu’s. He was just about to go get some intel on that when Lin Yi got to it first.
