I Want to Buy Ten!

Wang Yu's heart stirred. That made sense.

Any business deal was like that. Without connections or the right channels, even spending a fortune might not get you quality goods, and you would most likely end up being taken for a fool.

The benefit the fat bank manager mentioned genuinely tempted him.

The fat bank manager did not have many personal connections to offer—just those two things.

Building connections with the White Dragon Sea Empire's powerful and influential figures was merely decent, but Wang Yu truly needed to purchase high-quality slaves, so he readily agreed.

However, he did not produce the two million Universe Coins on the spot. Wang Yu put on a slight act, saying he needed some time to transfer the funds, and they agreed that the fat bank manager would send someone to War God Star to collect them a year later.

Since the deposit target would not be settled until three years later, the fat bank manager had no objections. He also agreed to immediately have his cousin help Wang Yu seek out high-quality slaves.

Making a deposit had unexpectedly brought him such gains. Escorted out by the fat bank manager and over a hundred employees, Wang Yu left Cosmic Galaxy Bank in high spirits.

After that, Wang Yu went to the Ganwu Dojo on Imperial Capital Star.

Recommended by Mentor Yoda and backed by his own strength, he received notice on the way there confirming his identity as a One-Leaf Qian Wu Adept.

The Ganwu Dojo was a cultivation academy established by the Ganwu Nation Lord for the vast number of ordinary people in the Ganwu Universe Nation.

Planetary-level cultivators were ordinary students, while Star-level cultivators were elite students.

Starting at the Universe-level, one could serve as a mentor and be called a "Qian Wu Adept." Golden leaves were embroidered on their sleeves, ranging from one to three leaves, corresponding respectively to the Universe-level, Domain Lord Level, and World Lord level.

He was only stopping by to register. Although he could have registered in the Virtual Universe, since he was already here, meeting in person seemed more sincere.

Generally, the Ganwu Dojo established one dojo per galaxy. The Blue Silver Empire had ten galaxies, meaning ten dojos, and the one on Imperial Capital Star was naturally the most advanced.

Universe-level cultivators were major figures even in lower-tier nations. Thus, many ordinary Ganwu Dojos did not even have a One-Leaf Qian Wu Adept. They were merely managed by Star-level elite students who had graduated and been hired as "instructors."

In the Blue Silver Empire, only the dojo on Imperial Capital Star had a One-Leaf Qian Wu Adept stationed there. He was only at the Domain Seventh Layer, and his comprehension of laws was inferior even to Wang Yu's.

Therefore, upon learning that Wang Yu had reached the ninth level of the domain, this man treated him with great courtesy and asked about his plans.

Wang Yu frankly told him that he intended to become the head instructor at the Ganwu Dojo in the Hunyuan Galaxy, where War God Star was located.

That was his plan. The Ganwu Nation Lord prohibited cultivation academies outside the Ganwu Dojo. Although he could contribute as a lord by nurturing his citizens, they would still have to be sent to the Ganwu Dojo.

But the instructors at ordinary Ganwu Dojos were not even as strong as him!

Since that was the case, why not take charge of this himself?

The citizens he personally nurtured could be sent to the Ganwu Dojo under his management. If they achieved results, they would all count as major contributions he had made to the Ganwu Dojo!

As long as he produced a few decent geniuses, he would soon gain the Ganwu Dojo's attention. Unless some enormous conflict arose, even those stronger than him would not want to move against him lightly.

The One-Leaf Qian Wu Adept on Imperial Capital Star had no objections. He even breathed a sigh of relief.

One mountain could not accommodate two tigers. If another One-Leaf Qian Wu Adept came to crowd into the Imperial Capital Star dojo, and was younger than him with a higher domain level, it would be rather awkward for him!

Wang Yu voluntarily asked to manage another dojo, which was a good thing for him. Everyone could relax!

Finally, Wang Yu met with Jimmy, the director of the Imperial Administration.

This man called Wang Yu his brother. They were not truly sworn brothers, but their relationship was indeed fairly good.

More than two hundred years ago, when Wang Yu had first arrived at the Ganwu Dojo as a planetary-level cultivator, Jimmy had already been a stellar-level elite student at the same dojo.

Wang Yu had decent talent and received Jimmy's guidance several times. He later rose to the Star-level quite quickly, and the two interacted more often, dealing with each other for over a hundred years.

Jimmy had originally intended to wait for the Genius Battle and strive for a good performance to add some prestige to his record. Unfortunately, trouble arose in his family within the Blue Silver Empire, and they urgently needed a Universe-level cultivator to hold the fort.

The Genius Battle was still more than a hundred years away, and he could not wait no matter what. Jimmy could only helplessly give up the chance to embellish his record, break through to the Universe-level ahead of time, and return to his family to take charge.

Because Wang Yu was talented and would clearly have no trouble breaking through to the Universe-level, the two remained in contact. After the Genius Battle, Wang Yu expressed his wish to join the Blue Silver Empire as a planetary lord, and Jimmy, in his capacity as director of the Imperial Administration, secured him relatively good terms.

The planets he received might not seem impressive, but without Jimmy's efforts, other Universe-level cultivators would only have received worse ones.

For example, he currently had at least several planets close to War God Star that were somewhat better in quality, along with some citizens possessing ninth-grade bloodlines.

If they had been assigned to other Universe-level cultivators, usually only the main planet would be decent. The rest would be the worst life planets, all inhabited by citizens with tenth-grade bloodlines...

Since he had come to Imperial Capital Star, he naturally had to meet Jimmy.

Besides, he had serious business to discuss. He had not merely come to casually drink and chat with an acquaintance. He took the opportunity to make a request, wanting another fifty life planets as territory.

"Little brother, I couldn't tell before, but you really intend to develop your territory?" Jimmy asked in surprise.

"Is it difficult to ask for more planetary territory?" Wang Yu asked.

"It's not difficult. The empire controls ten galaxies, each with hundreds of thousands of life planets. That adds up to several million. What does it matter if you ask for a few dozen more?" Jimmy said with a smile.

"Of course, there is no problem letting you manage them, but we must make this clear: all of them must pay taxes. Absolutely none may go unpaid."

"Also, the planets will be at the same standard as the ones you currently have—the most ordinary kind. Even if I can secure a few slightly better ones for you, they will only be marginally better."

"If you truly want higher-quality life planets, you can only spend money to buy them. But that will be much more expensive!"

"Big brother, as far as I know, the average price of a life planet is around one trillion White Dragon Coins?" Wang Yu asked.

"More or less. The lowest-grade ones cost three or four hundred billion, the average is around one trillion, and especially high-quality ones cost two or three trillion!" Jimmy sighed.

"If you are interested, buy one or two high-quality planets, then select citizens with good talent and potential to move there. Many lords do this."

"Living in a high-quality environment makes it easier for them to produce more outstanding descendants in the future. Perhaps in around ten thousand years, you could cultivate a decent bloodline."

"It's just rather expensive. That depends on you!"

Wang Yu nodded.

The Blue Silver Empire possessed ten galaxies and several million life planets. Giving him management rights over a total of one hundred planets truly amounted to nothing, so it would not be difficult to obtain.

However, asking for more might not be so easy.

If he bought them himself, the average life planet cost around one trillion White Dragon Coins, which was a little over one hundred thousand Universe Coins.

Even for a Universe-level cultivator, that was no small sum.

There was no problem with buying planets, as long as he did not buy too many and make his wealth appear absurdly enormous, so...

"Big brother, please arrange it for me. I want to buy ten life planets worth one trillion White Dragon Coins each!" Wang Yu said, looking at Jimmy.

"How many?" Jimmy was startled.

"Ten. A total of ten trillion White Dragon Coins!" Wang Yu repeated.
