"Respected guests, I am Xiaoxiao. This must be your first time at our Fengyun Tower, correct? Let me guide you and introduce our Fengyun Tower."

The female attendant at Fengyun Tower was evidently an exceptional beauty, her ancient attire exuding an aura of immortal energy, enough to be a goddess among shut-in young men in the outside world.

Li Feng nodded.

Xiaoxiao turned around to lead the way, simultaneously introducing the Fengyun Tower: "Dear guests, our Fengyun Tower is shaped like a tower, with eight sides corresponding to the eight directions, and the tower stands nine levels tall."

"The first level hosts various functional rooms, mainly for Fengyun Tower employees' workspace, so guests are not entertained here."

"Dear guests, please follow me upstairs."

Passing through the screen in the lobby, there was unexpectedly a wooden staircase in the shape of the character "eight" leading to the upper floor. Li Feng and his companions followed Xiaoxiao to the second floor of Fengyun Tower.

As they ascended the stairs, they found themselves in a corridor. Xiaoxiao moved to the corridor and looked towards the central atrium.

"This is the Fengyun Arena, also a place for sparring."

Li Feng stood on the corridor, his gaze falling on the central atrium. The atrium was vast, running from the base to the top of the tower. It seemed like some special material was used at the tower's top, with the tiles sparkling and translucent. The light from above projects directly onto the atrium, illuminating it like daylight.

Directly below the atrium was a Tai Chi yin-yang fish arena, with a diameter likely spanning ten zhang. Around the arena, numerous defense arrays were set up to prevent battles in the arena from affecting the surroundings.

Xiaoxiao continued to explain from beside them: "The second floor of Fengyun Tower has no restrictions; visitors can come and go as they please, with no taboos. The second floor houses a hall and private rooms where meals can be ordered."

"Many people come here to exchange information or engage in trade. Our Fengyun Tower provides guarantees for this, and additionally, there is a gambling establishment here where you can place bets."

"It can be quite noisy here, dear guests, please follow me to the third floor."

Xiaoxiao turned to lead the way, walking through the corridor to another passage, though at the end of this passage was a barrier of an array.

"Here is the barrier gate leading to the third floor. Even a Golden Core cultivator cannot easily break through this array. The only way to reach the third floor is by using an Identity Token."

Xiaoxiao spoke and looked at Li Feng: "Dear guest, please take out your Identity Token from before."

Li Feng produced the copper token he had previously, advancing towards the barrier gate before him. In an instant, the gate, like a mirror, rippled. A door appeared before his eyes.

"To open the barrier, you must pass through within three breaths; otherwise, the barrier gate will close immediately."

Xiaoxiao finished speaking and stepped through the barrier gate.

Li Feng and his companions followed closely behind.

"The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth floors of Fengyun Tower are areas for distinguished guests, corresponding to different Identity Tokens. The copper token only grants access to the third floor."

"Oh, what's the difference between these floors?"

Li Feng inquired.

Unexpectedly, Fengyun Tower also implements a hierarchical VIP system.

Xiaoxiao replied: "Well, the functions on these floors are actually quite similar, but to speak of differences, there are indeed some; the higher the rank, the more privileges you have."

"For example, acquiring information, within Fengyun Tower, information is classified into various levels of secrecy, with the more valuable information being higher in level. To acquire such information, you must first have the corresponding identity."

"Moreover, Fengyun Tower not only trades in information but also sells rare treasures, cultivation resources, and resources that you can only obtain within the Heaven Tower, which can also be purchased through Fengyun Tower. Similarly, the higher your status, the higher the level of purchase you can make, and you also have purchasing priority."

"For instance, if a Silver Card holder also notices the same item, as long as the item has not left Fengyun Tower, the other party has the priority."

"Of course, beyond these differences, there's also the matter of the people you interact with. Naturally, with a copper status, you'll interact with others of copper status, just as with a Silver Card, you'll interact with those of silver status."

"Dear guest, you should understand."

Xiaoxiao smiled as she spoke.

Li Feng certainly understood. Circles, playing with those at the same level: "So what conditions are needed to improve this status?"

When Li Feng asked this, Xiaoxiao was not surprised at all. The Identity Tokens at Fengyun Tower are symbols of status and prestige.

"These conditions involve various aspects. Dear guests should know about the five rankings established by Fengyun Pavilion; similarly, these Identity Tokens are linked to these five rankings. As long as you meet the requirements, our Fengyun Pavilion will upgrade your Identity Token for you."

Fengyun Pavilion is indeed quite arrogant. It's as if they have divided people into different ranks with these Identity Tokens.

Click.

Fengyun Pavilion has quite the ambition.

"Oh, by the way, this Identity Token can also be used as money. The copper token allows you to spend ten thousand Golden Spirit Stones at our Fengyun Tower, requiring repayment within three years without any cost."

"Additionally, with this copper token, you can borrow a hundred thousand Golden Spirit Stones, although this requires some interest. The annual rate is only thirty percent."

Xiaoxiao continued. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Li Feng rolled his eyes, Fengyun Tower really involves everything, even handling banking business.

At that moment, a burst of noise erupted from outside.

Li Feng looked towards the direction of the atrium.

Xiaoxiao, seeing this, spoke indifferently: "It should be the arena opening. Dear guest, would you like to go to a private room? From there, you can directly watch the battles through the window."

"Alright."

Of course, Li Feng didn't refuse. Xiaoxiao led the way, quickly bringing Li Feng and his companions to a private room, around twenty to thirty square feet in size. In the center was a table for eight immortals, and by the window lay a couch where one could sit and watch the Fengyun Arena below.

"I've heard that to challenge someone on the Fengyun List, you first need to gain qualifications through arena battles, is that true?"

Li Feng asked directly.

Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes, though it's not absolutely necessary. Our Fengyun Pavilion set two conditions to control the number of challenges."

"First, for those not on the Fengyun List who think they're superior to someone on the list, they must first challenge the person ranked one hundred."

"Secondly, to prevent a flurry of consecutive challenges, it was stipulated that after one challenge, the person challenged could rest for a month."

Li Feng frowned slightly: "So to challenge someone on the Fengyun List, you would still need to defeat other challengers first."

"Yes and no."

"Though our Fengyun Pavilion has set two conditions, there is still another possibility, where someone on the list takes the initiative to challenge, which wouldn't be restricted."

"Moreover, for the person ranked one hundred on the Fengyun List, if they agree to consecutive battles, they may challenge two or three people in succession."

"Of course, this depends on the other party's willingness. In theory, if you wish to challenge the top person on the list, as long as you issue a challenge and they are willing to accept, then the battle is established."

"However, this hardly ever happens, as the Fengyun List of our Fengyun Pavilion already gathers the strongest hundred people. Therefore, many wish to challenge the one hundredth place, but as for challenging the first place directly, heh, it can't be said it never happened, just that the challengers meet a grisly end, and it's been many years since anyone has attempted such a thing."
