You'll Have to Pay More, Simulation Begins!

Yu Ke recovered from his initial shock.

It seemed the boy in white did not want his mother living here.

Were the two on bad terms?

Or was this teenage rebellion?

Either way, it had nothing to do with him.

Yu Ke considered the crux of the matter, pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"That does make things rather difficult..."

"There have been changes to the Outer Sect Tournament recently. This year's tournament and next year's have both been canceled, and will be combined into one tournament two years from now. That means most disciples will remain in the sect for the next two years. Courtyard residences will naturally become scarce, and as the water rises, so must the boats—the prices are bound to rise."

As Yu Ke spoke, he watched the boy in white's expression. The boy remained utterly composed, apparently already aware of the news.

Yu Ke nodded inwardly and continued.

"For Outer Disciples of the Divine Firmament Sect, this is the only path into the Inner Sect in their entire lives. Such an opportunity is hard to come by. What's more, this tournament coincides with Fairy Yunxiao accepting disciples on a grand scale. Countless disciples across the Three Continents will flock to it like ducks to water. I'm afraid courtyard prices will reach new heights."

"And for me, this is also my most important opportunity."

At this point!

Yu Ke's meaning needed no explanation. The four thousand spirit stones they had previously agreed upon now seemed too little.

The boy in white's brows knitted slightly, then relaxed. Clearly, he found the reasoning sound.

This Divine Firmament Sect tournament was of great importance. Even he had to take it seriously.

He could not help asking, "What do you suggest, then?"

Yu Ke smiled faintly, his smile
