“You, you have Remnant Souls?”

These new players have only just started, and the vast majority of them wouldn’t even dare to leave their territories, let alone obtain Remnant Souls. Low-level and low-rank monsters do not drop Remnant Souls.

This kid has got something going for him.

“Just a stroke of luck, only luck.”

Mu Yuan responded modestly.

Old Brother Mai Wa looked at Mu Yuan, his eyes wide: You promised we’d be poorguys together, but turns out you’re a big shot? I’ve underestimated you… lead the way, big shot!

…

Mu Yuan didn’t bring the Remnant Souls with him earlier, but this wasn’t an issue. As long as his character was at the Altar, in-game items can be extracted at any time.

The association has created countless private quiet rooms for players to use – colloquially known as internet café private rooms.

Mu Yuan walked in, and with a few operations on his phone, extracted all three random Remnant Souls.

Rounding up, this is akin to carrying a spatial backpack.

It’s just that the Trans-dimensional fee is outrageously high, it should be hung on a streetlight!

…

Mu Yuan, carrying the Remnant Souls, quickly returned to the booth.

The owner waited with baited breath and broke into a smile when he saw that the handsome young man actually had Remnant Souls in hand.

This is a rookie with potential.

In that case, it wouldn’t be nice to gouge him too badly; earning a little profit will do just fine.

Wait, it seems there is more than one Remnant Soul.

“You have… how many Remnant Souls?”

“Three Remnant Souls, all random Remnant Souls.”

Mu Yuan responded with a shy smile.

Booth Owner: “…”

This newbie, definitely has the makings of a Lord! Alright alright, I shouldn’t gouge him. Besides, this is just a small deal; it doesn’t matter whether I make more or less, let’s just build some good karma.

Mu Yuan then began, “Boss, as you should know, the price of random Remnant Souls is higher than Little Skeleton Remnant Souls…”

…

After a back-and-forth haggling that resembles the markets, Mu Yuan finally exchanged three random Remnant Souls for Boss Zhang’s five Little Skeleton Remnant Souls.

Both sides were overjoyed.

Boss Zhang: Alright alright, making money isn’t important, what matters is building some good karma.

“Boss, it seems like you also purchase goods, right?”

“That’s correct.” Boss Zhang is a merchant player who makes some money by buying and selling goods, “But I don’t buy everything. Items like random Remnant Souls, cultivation materials, advancement materials etc., I buy quite a lot.

“Wait a minute, don’t tell me you’ve got more…”

“Only this last drop left… this bottle of Energy Potion, boss, I’ve heard that this kind of Energy Potion can make one ‘work’ seven times in one night…”

Moments later,

Boss Zhang watched as Mu Yuan, already out of sight, walked away and fell into deep thought.

“Did I lose out?”

But looking at the orange potion in his hand, Boss Zhang tightened his grip, unable to let go.

…

After completing the trade, Mu Yuan hurried away and finally returned to his own home after a few transfers of transportation.

Even though he was only matching wits with the air.

“After all, the things I’m selling, even if it’s several times more valuable, wouldn’t worth much in the eyes of veteran players.”

How much wealth could he, a novice who has only been practicing for a day, possibly have?

Breaking the law and becoming a despised rat in return for robbing a poor guy, Mu Yuan thought it wouldn’t be worth it.

However,

“If I obtain some high-level treasures in the future, I can’t be so brazen when selling them.”

Back at home, Mu Yuan checked his game status and then rubbed his hands together, opening the Tai Xuan Forum.

‘Prompt: Your identity has passed the verification, The Tai Xuan forum formally welcomes you, enjoy your game.’

‘Prompt: The trading area has opened, Reward Zone (New player) has opened.’

In the Reward Zone, there were tasks such as hunting wanted criminal players, hunting Fleeing Monsters, and invading monster camps, but these tasks were too high-end for new players, and new players weren’t qualified to accept them.

Rather than saying these are rewards, it advised new players that a certain city has a wanted criminal player committing crimes, or a certain forest has a powerful monster lurking, to avoid them.

Mu Yuan checked it over, thankfully, Baijiang City didn’t have any wanted criminals or fleeing monsters.

With regards to the trading area,

“Now this is a real trading platform, the small market in Baijiang City… is not even worth mentioning.”

After a brief look, however, Mu Yuan had one thought – he was really broke!

Besides, trading on the platform required a hefty transportation fee and security deposit.

He closed the trading platform, did a quick scan of the forum, ordered his lunch delivery, and then commenced his battles for the day.

“With the forum activated and the subsidies credited to the account, now until the resource assessment, it’s definitely a crunch period.”

Grinding until he drops, but hoping not to!

He checked the game record for the morning. The whole territory had been quiet with no monster disturbances, which somehow left Mu Yuan feeling disappointed.

Human beings are never satisfied.

When he was weak, he was afraid of the monsters attacking. When he wasn’t weak, he wished the monsters would wrap themselves up and hand themselves over to him.

These monsters had no sense of propriety.

He checked on the skeletons one by one.

‘Skeleton Soldier Dead Bone has advanced to rank 0, level 3.’

‘Skeleton Soldier Bone Two has advanced to rank 0, level 2.’

‘Skeleton Soldier…’

‘Little Skeleton…’

From last night to now, not only did Dead Bone take the lead in breaking into level three, Little Skeleton and the lone Falcon have also collectively advanced to level two. The price was that almost all of the Soul Sand obtained yesterday was consumed.

Everything requires Soul Sand, leveling up, treasure manifestation, you name it.

Such a small amount of Soul Sand can hardly sustain these activities.

“Relying solely on monster hunting for Soul Sand is just not enough to train Dead Bone and the other skeletons to a professional level. I’ll have to buy from other players.”

Among the veteran players, there were professionals whose job was to collect in-game items and sell them for real money, otherwise known as gold farmers. However, they were generally Ranger Players who had lost their lord status and were not high level. They could only make bare living this way.

But the money Mu Yuan made was equally hard-earned.

He needed to sell the items he collected in exchange for the Soul Sand that was as fine as dregs. A single remnant soul could only sell for a few dozen grams of Soul Sand. Sure enough, making money was really difficult.

…

Today was the second day Mu Yuan gained the qualifications to play the game. He wanted to cautiously explore outside to ensure stable survival in the Eternal Continent.

Before setting out, he planned to recruit 5 novice Little Skeletons.

“Recruitment needs 5 remnant souls and 25g of Soul Sand. Luckily, I have sold my energy potion before, otherwise I would be short of soul sand now.”

“But I need to transfer the Soul Sand to the Eternal Continent. This is another trans-dimensional fee.”

Mu Yuan’s heart ached.

He thought the Eternal Continent was the real black-hearted boss; the players bringing resources in and out every day had to pay a lot of transport fees.

With the consumption of the few Soul Sands, very soon, a few more Little Skeletons came out from the Lord’s Altar.

The new skellies looked loveably confused, stumbling as if about to fall at any moment, making it hard for anyone to look forward expectantly to their performance.

But,

General Dead Bone stepped forward, he walked straight to the several newbie skellies and started speaking in rapid-fire skeletal language.

He told them to resolutely follow the steps of the Lord, work hard…They should learn how to cheat and ambush the monsters… There was no need to play fair with monsters, use tricks whenever necessary, slide when necessary…

Mu Yuan understood the gist of what Dead Bone was saying, albeit rather hazily. However, whether these dull little skeletons understood him or not was another matter.

“Good, very spirited.”

After Dead Bone’s inspection, Mu Yuan checked out Dead Bone and the other two skeleton soldiers.

Bone Two and Bone Three aside, Dead Bone’s progress was apparently not limited to his level.

Not only did he become more proficient in using the Cleave ability and was now capable of using it three times in succession, but he also figured out many combat skills and tactics on his own,

Such as rolling like a donkey, eye poking, deadly attacks etc.

Mu Yuan was a little quiet.

Something seemed off, why would his majestic Dead Bone figure out these techniques? Oh, it seems to have something to do with his own teaching? Right, these tactics are indeed very practical. Dead Bone’s ability to apply knowledge is truly remarkable, worthy of being his disciple.

“However, there’s no doubt that Skeleton Soldiers with combat skills are far more powerful than those who can only charge straight ahead, like Bone Three and Bone Two. And Dead Bone is obviously still in a period of rapid progress.”

“Are all the troops that have awakened their self-consciousness so monstrous?”

“Or is it that, Dead Bone is even more monstrous than the other monstrous troops?”

“Who knows what will happen when Dead Bone evolves again.”

‘Skeleton’s Evolution Points: 2.52’

If all goes well, tonight, he would be able to evolve the first Rare Rank Troop.
