D-class spacecraft were basically used by Universe-level beings. In an Elementary Universe Country, Domain Lord Level beings were emperors, while Universe-level beings were overlord-like existences. Even here on Imperial Capital Star, they were quite rare.

In the entire D-class docking area, there were only four spacecraft including his.

The hatch slid open, and Wang Yu flew out and landed on the ground, where he saw over a hundred docking port employees standing there respectfully.

"Welcome, Lord Wang Yu!"

Over a hundred employees bowed in perfect unison, their voices ringing out.

"Mm." Wang Yu nodded lightly and casually tossed out a silver-white banknote, which landed in the hands of the employee standing at the front.

The employee took one look at it and immediately widened his eyes, his face filled with delight!

White Dragon Coins!

And it was not small change in coin form. This silver-white banknote was a high-denomination White Dragon Coin note worth 100!

The lead employee held the silver-white banknote in both hands, his eyes round as saucers, his hands even trembling slightly!

100 White Dragon Coins!

Good heavens!

Planetary-level beings like them were merely the most ordinary citizens. Their strength was too low, and their income was meager.

Even working at the Imperial Capital Star docking port, which was considered quite a good job, they only earned 1 White Dragon Coin a year.

Yet this lord had casually thrown out an entire 100 White Dragon Coin note!

The other employees had seen it as well. Their breathing quickened, and their eyes were filled with longing. Even Universe-level lords rarely gave such generous rewards.

Split among a hundred of them, this tip was equivalent to an extra year's salary!

The lead employee reacted swiftly. With a thud, he dropped to one knee, holding up the silver-white banknote with both hands. His voice trembled with excitement. "Thank you for your reward, Lord!"

The hundred-plus employees behind him all knelt in unison and shouted together, "Thank you for your reward, Lord!"

Wang Yu merely waved a hand casually without saying anything else. He rose into the air and flew toward the outside of the docking port.

Only after Wang Yu had gone far away did the employees kneeling on the ground dare stand up. They immediately urged the team leader still holding the banknote to distribute the reward.

The team leader was somewhat helpless, but he could not possibly ignore over a hundred people and keep such a large reward for himself. He could only honestly promise everyone that he would find someone to exchange it for Blue Silver Coin after work and make sure to divide it equally among them.

Everyone figured he would not dare swallow the reward money of over a hundred people, so they agreed. Each of them was delighted inside. Meeting such a generous lord today was truly lucky!

With his hands behind his back, Wang Yu flew with calm and elegant poise. Before long, he arrived before an enormous and beautiful building.

The building stood over a hundred meters tall and possessed a courtyard spanning more than a hundred square kilometers. Apart from the main structure, which resembled a work of art, there were no other buildings. The entire place was filled with ornamental plants and courtyard decorations.

This was the Imperial Capital Star, the most prosperous place in the entire Blue Silver Empire, where every inch of land was worth a fortune. Such extravagance was utterly luxurious.

However, the force behind this building was absolutely qualified to be so extravagant.

Cosmic Galaxy Bank, one of Humanity's five major powers.

Although it was slightly inferior to the two true giants, Giant Axe Dojo and Virtual Universe Company, the three branches of the Universe Mercenary Alliance, Cosmic Galaxy Bank, and Universe First Bank all possessed multiple Universe Masters. They were still ruling powers of Humanity.

Even a mere branch office held an extremely lofty status, and ordinary World Lord level beings were unwilling to provoke it.

Among Elementary Universe Countries, the Blue Silver Empire was considered relatively powerful. That was why the two major banks had branches on Imperial Capital Star. In more ordinary Elementary Universe Countries, the two major banks might not even establish branches.

This Cosmic Galaxy Bank building had been constructed with a three-dimensional effect resembling a river of stars. Looking at it felt as though one were facing a starry sky rushing toward them.

Wang Yu looked up at the building...

He had some discernment. Such a hundred-meter-tall building was entirely made from C9-grade material. Universe-level beings could not possibly break it, and even Domain Lord Level beings would likely have to exert considerable effort to breach it.

A branch established in an Elementary Universe Country was already this grand. It truly deserved to be called one of Humanity's five major powers. They were simply too wealthy!

And it was not merely wealth. He now possessed ten billion Universe Coins, so he could be considered to have some assets. He could afford to build such a structure as well.

The problem was that while he had enough money, his strength was insufficient. He was not qualified to act so arrogantly and establish branches everywhere.

I wonder whether I can one day develop influence comparable to the five major powers! Wang Yu sighed inwardly and walked toward the bank building.

Pedestrians coming and going on the distant street all looked at Wang Yu heading toward the bank with deep envy.

The account-opening threshold for Cosmic Galaxy Bank was a deposit of one hundred million White Dragon Coins. Even the richest people on some ordinary planets might not possess that much wealth!

Even the bank building's entrance was made extremely magnificent and imposing. A shimmering light curtain hung over the doors like an inverted starry sky.

After passing through it, the view suddenly opened up before him.

It was an extraordinarily vast hall, likewise built with magnificence and splendor. The air was permeated with a faint fragrance that calmed the mind and spirit.

Wang Yu did not deliberately restrain his aura. The life aura of a Universe-level being naturally spread outward.

The few guests and employees waiting in the hall immediately sensed the arrival of a Universe-level expert!

A breathtakingly beautiful young woman wearing a vest bearing the Cosmic Galaxy Bank emblem hurried forward. With elegant posture, she bowed deeply and greeted him with a warm smile. "Welcome, esteemed sir. How may I serve you?"

At Cosmic Galaxy Bank, even an ordinary employee possessed considerable knowledge. She knew very well that the few Star-level beings waiting in the hall might be called the richest people on their respective planets, but their wealth was actually nothing special.

A Universe-level expert's assets were definitely more than ten thousand times those so-called wealthy people's!

Every Universe-level being was a distinguished guest whom the branch needed to receive with special attention!

Wang Yu casually swept his gaze across the hall. Seeing that there were only a few unremarkable Star-level beings, he paid them no attention. Looking toward the female employee, he said indifferently, "I want to make a deposit. Ten thousand cubic meters of Universe Crystals."

"Yes, deposit services are this way... Ah!?" The female employee maintained her smile and smoothly began her reception line, but she suddenly froze halfway through!

"S-sir... did you say... ten thousand cubic meters of Universe Crystals?"

Ten thousand cubic meters of Universe Crystals!

The female employee was completely stunned!

She had worked here for many years and had received many distinguished major clients, witnessing quite a few large transactions. Yet they usually amounted to only eight hundred million or one billion White Dragon Coins, figures that already seemed astronomical to her.

Only with the occasional arrival of certain Universe-level experts had she heard that they used Ganwu coins, which were of a higher tier than White Dragon Coins, or even Universe Coins, which she had heard mentioned only on exceedingly rare occasions.

This Universe-level expert before her...

The moment he opened his mouth, he said he wanted to deposit ten thousand cubic meters of Universe Crystals!

This had already reached the threshold for a Cosmic Galaxy Bank "One-Star Account"!
