Blood Bounty Examination

In the private room, it was so quiet that you could hear the wind rustling through the street outside the window.

As soon as Su Ye asked that question, several pairs of eyes immediately fell on the Desperate Old Man.

Xia Zhiqiu's ears perked up, his eyes widened, and he even held his breath.

Zhang Xuan also subconsciously sat up straight.

Even the usually composed Xiao Qiyue turned her gaze over, her fingertips resting lightly on her knees as she waited quietly.

The God King himself opened the account and even left a message saying it was a "gift for becoming an apprentice."

How big of a deal is that?

In their hearts, everyone was actually wildly imagining things.

Who is the Po Jun God King?

That was a supreme being who could be considered a figure of Supreme Strongman throughout the entire Divine Realm.

Even a tiny bit of his wealth would be enough for them to roam freely for several blocks in the Azure Mansion.

However, the Desperate Old Man remained unhurried.

He picked up the teacup on the table, first brought it to his nose to smell it, revealing a leisurely expression that said, "This tea is not bad," then took a sip and slowly put it down.

That calm and composed demeanor made the young men scratch their heads in frustration.

Xia Zhiqiu couldn't hold back any longer and urged him repeatedly.

"Senior, please say something! Is this the time for tea? We're all waiting anxiously! It's driving us crazy!"

The Desperate Old Man, finally spoke slowly.

"The Po Jun God King has a very high opinion of Su Ye."

"I also know that Su Ye comes from a remote Divine Domain, and he's probably short of money while traveling in the Divine Realm."

"Therefore, he specially prepared a bank account for Su Ye so that Su Ye could inherit it."

Su Ye felt a little touched.

Po Jun God King is such a good person.

Then the Desperate Old Man continued.

"Furthermore, to incentivize Su Ye, this account was specially designed with several layers."

"You can receive different amounts depending on the conditions you meet."

"The more you climb up the ladder, the more you can acquire."

Xia Zhiqiu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she muttered to herself.

"Isn't this just like the 'achievement unlock rewards' in a game? The Po Jun God King is quite savvy with game operations."

Su Ye, however, did not rush to be happy, but instead pressed for more information.

"So what are the conditions for this first level?"

The Desperate Old Man, put down his teacup, looked up at him, and slowly uttered a few words.

"Join the Divine Realm Blood Bounty Pavilion and become... One-Star Blood Bounty."

Su Ye was taken aback.

To be honest, he made a lot of guesses along the way. He guessed that the Po Jun God King wanted him to break through a certain realm, or defeat a certain opponent, or go to a secret place to retrieve some item.

But to everyone's surprise, the first hurdle set by the Po Jun God King was this.

"Blood Bounty Pavilion?"

Su Ye frowned slightly.

"Good."

The Desperate Old Man, chuckled, then finally became serious.

"This looks like a test."

"But in reality..."

"Becoming One-Star Blood Bounty will be very beneficial for your future journey through the Divine Realm."

The Desperate Old Man paused, as if considering his words, before continuing:

"In the Divine Realm, there are countless cultivators who have joined the Divine Realm Blood Bounty Pavilion; almost ninety percent of Martial Artist, for various reasons, will have a nominal membership."

"However, most people are actually just ordinary Blood Bounty individuals."

"Just hanging around, taking on small jobs, just trying to make a living."

"And 'Star-Ranked Blood Bounty'..."

The Desperate Old Man raised a finger and tapped the table.

"That's different."

"That requires taking Examination."

Only the best among those of the Same Realm, with extremely strong combat power, can become Star-Ranked Blood Bounty.

As he said this, a rare hint of appreciation crept into his voice.

"Star-Ranked Blood Bounty signifies that you have survived rigorous selection processes, countless battles, and various crises; you are a true champion."

"Wherever I go, I will be looked up to and respected."

"And..."

The Desperate Old Man, suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming increasingly alluring.

"Becoming Star-Ranked Blood Bounty has another advantage."

"You can use the guise of accepting missions to travel to any place you want."

"Even... we can access many Secret Realm that are not open to the public."

Upon hearing this, Su Ye and the others stared wide-eyed.

Xia Zhiqiu almost jumped up from her seat.

"Secret Realm? The kind that's not open to the public? The treasures inside must be piled up like mountains!"

Zhang Xuan seemed to be deep in thought, and slowly nodded.

"This is indeed a path to rapid growth. It can hone combat skills, broaden horizons, and provide opportunities to access various resource-rich areas."

The Desperate Old Man nodded.

"That's why I said that this is ostensibly a test, but in reality, it's a path paved by the Po Jun God King for Su Ye."

"What he wants is not for Su Ye to hide in a safe place and slowly grow stronger."

"What he wants is a Su Ye who dares to venture forth, dares to kill, and can gain a foothold in the Divine Realm."

Su Ye remained silent, but her heart slowly warmed.

It has to be said, the Po Jun God King is anything but gentle.

They pushed him into the fire right from the start.

But ironically, this fiery pit is filled with opportunities that yield real gold and silver.

He really wanted to jump.

When can we go?

Su Ye spoke, a flame seemingly burning in his eyes.

Xia Zhiqiu was the first to jump up and slam her hand on the table.

"Participate! You absolutely must participate!"

"Just the ability to 'travel to various parts of the Divine Realm through quests' alone is amazing!"

"Doesn't this mean we've got a 'Pass to the Divine Realm'? We can go anywhere with impunity, so who would dare call us 'outsiders'?"

Zhang Xuan nodded and added.

"Indeed. This is also a way for us to understand the Divine Realm. It can improve our authority, so we should definitely participate."

But he was always meticulous, and he frowned halfway through his sentence.

"But..."

Zhang Xuan looked at the Desperate Old Man.

"Senior, we are all just Lower God right now."

"Su Ye is Middle God."

"Can we... take this Examination together?"

Once the question was raised, the private room fell silent again.

Because everyone knows that a difference of just one realm in Cultivation Level is like heaven and earth.

The Desperate Old Man, didn't hide anything and nodded.

"Yes, it's possible."

"But..."

He changed the subject, his expression becoming more serious.

"It would be very dangerous for you to participate in the Examination."

"Once you reach the God Level, you can participate in the One-Star Blood Bounty Examination."

"But you should know that those who participate in the One-Star Blood Bounty Examination are basically Middle God."

"It would be even more dangerous for Lower God to participate."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions darkened.

Xia Zhiqiu opened her mouth, but for the first time, she couldn't say anything.

Zhang Xuan's fingers tapped lightly on his knee.

Even Shen Mo stopped playing with the Dagger.

But then the Desperate Old Man, slowly added a sentence.

"However, it's not entirely hopeless."

"Team formation is not prohibited Examination."

"You can absolutely travel together."

Swish.

The atmosphere immediately became lively.

"Team up?!"

Xia Zhiqiu's eyes widened in surprise.

"So that means we can team up? Su Ye is one of the best among the Middle God. With him leading the way, what are we afraid of?"

You should know that Su Ye even killed the Demon Race Progenitor was at the Peak High God.

Taking them to participate in the so-called "Blood Bounty Examination" is just rushing to make money, isn't it?
