"How much did you say?"
"Eighty thousand Contribution Points."
"For a tier-three material this small, eighty thousand Contribution Points?"
Li Xiuchang stared at the amber crystal the size of a quail egg and spoke in disbelief.
Although sect Contribution Points could supposedly be exchanged for spirit stones at a one-to-one ratio, the exchange only went one way: Contribution Points could be exchanged for spirit stones, but spirit stones could not be used to purchase Contribution Points.

Li Xiuchang could produce eighty thousand spirit stones, but he truly could not produce eighty thousand Contribution Points.
