Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 567 - 321: Conflict_3

"In the end, this guy came over, and the elder had already agreed to let me have it, but this guy used others' Contribution Points to forcibly buy the Radiance of the Eternal Night Twins, completely disregarding the principle of first come, first served."

"He often caused trouble for our team before, and I've disliked him for a long time, so we ended up fighting."

Ye Qingzhou chuckled and said, "I don't understand the principle of first come, first served? First come, first served, you need money to buy! Without money, how can you even queue up? And you talk to me about first come, first served."

Wei Long's face turned serious and he said in a deep voice, "The elder had already agreed to my pre-order."

Ye Qingzhou recalled the earlier incident; the elder guarding the battlefield treasury had agreed to Wei Long's pre-order, yet he still forcibly wanted to exchange the Radiance of the Eternal Night Twins.

Because he produced enough Contribution Points, and even deducted them in the warehouse, exchanging for the Radiance of the Eternal Night Twins, forcing the elder to take out the Spiritual Object for him. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Normally, when the elder agrees to someone else's pre-order, he's supposed to give up on that Spiritual Object and exchange for another.

His act of forceful exchange undoubtedly offended the elder, likely leaving a very poor impression in the elder's heart.

Thinking about this, Ye Qingzhou decided, since he'd already offended the elder, to just let the chips fall where they may, and said boldly, "Pre-order? I've never heard of any pre-order rules in the battlefield treasury. Aren't the rules of the battlefield treasury: whoever exchanges for it gets it?"

Wei Long was left without words, his face becoming increasingly unpleasant.

Ye Qingzhou's words were not unfounded; the battlefield treasury indeed didn't have the concept of pre-order, though this was something of an unspoken rule.

Elders would help disciples who were capable and had potential to hold onto items they wanted, assisting them to advance further on their cultivation path.

This unspoken rule was actually followed most of the time by the Celestial Wind Academy's students, as a way to give elders face, and also to leave themselves opportunities for future needs.

Typically, this pre-order situation occurred when a student had the ability to pay the Contribution, but couldn't gather enough Contribution Points in a short time, so they pre-ordered first and paid later.

In other words, when a student had the ability to purchase, the elder would let them pre-order, rather than let them occupy resources for free and affect other students' cultivation.

Lu Yu glanced at Ye Qingzhou and asked Wei Long, "Has he taken the Spiritual Object yet?"

Wei Long shook his head and said, "Not yet; after the exchange, the elder also needs some time to take the Spiritual Object from the treasury. Before it was taken out, I had already started fighting him."

"So, the Spiritual Object should still be with the elder; he hasn't gotten it."

Lu Yu spread his hands and said, "That's simple, you go take the Spiritual Object, pay the money, and I'll deal with these people."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Ye Qingzhou's face darkened; Lu Yu's presence wasn't even as strong as Luo Heng's. What made him dare say something like this?

A newcomer dares to speak like this in front of me?

Wei Long glanced at Lu Yu, then at Ye Qingzhou, and immediately agreed, "Alright."

He didn't hesitate at all, turning and walking towards Luo Heng and Chen Qingyun, saying, "Lend me a hundred and fifty thousand Contribution Points, I'll return them to you in the afternoon."

Luo Heng and Chen Qingyun, in this situation, didn't hesitate at all, directly took out their Identity Tokens and transferred all their Contribution Points to Wei Long.

Luo Heng said, "Captain, you use it first, I'm not in a hurry."

Chen Qingyun said, "Yeah, Captain, go ahead and use it."

Wei Long glanced at his Identity Token, seeing the additional over two hundred thousand Contribution Points, felt slightly moved. In such a critical moment, it was still his teammates he could rely on.

Ye Qingzhou watched Chen Qingyun and Luo Heng readily give Contribution Points to Wei Long, and couldn't help but compare it to his own situation, when he couldn't borrow Contribution Points from teammates.

He had to make countless promises before borrowing enough Contribution Points from teammates, and he couldn't help feeling a bit sore.

After getting enough Contribution Points, Wei Long didn't even glance at Ye Qingzhou, heading straight for the battlefield treasury.

Ye Qingzhou saw his actions, snapped back to reality, and shouted, "Stop! Don't try to leave!"

Lu Yu stepped forward, expressionless, and said, "Stay here, don't move!"

Ye Qingzhou was furious, glaring at Lu Yu, and shouted angrily, "You're asking for it!"

A powerful Spiritual Power pressure descended, Lu Yu's eyes sharpened, and his aura burst forth.

Ji! A sharp sound of air friction rang out.

The Spiritual Power pressure released by Ye Qingzhou was pierced by Lu Yu's gaze and rolled back skyward.
