This building’s contribution to the territory’s overall improvement is nothing short of tremendous.

Qiang Nantie arrived at the edge of the Spirit Spring. Beyond what he had used, he was able to collect a substantial amount of Spirit Spring Water.

He accessed the National Exchange Hall and located the little poppet’s shop he’d been monitoring. To his surprise, the Lord had stocked an abundance of bamboo, bundled in sets of 200.

Territory Alert: “At the National Exchange Hall, you’ve purchased 200 bamboo and spent 2000 spirit coins.”

Territory Alert: “You’ve acquired 200 bamboo at the National Exchange Hall, expending 2000 spirit coins.”

He snapped up all the bamboo at once, then had Yu Beichun and her four sisters begin bottling the Spirit Spring Water.

Little poppet, upon receiving the territory’s update, quickly logged into the trading hall. Seeing the bamboo snapped up by the enigmatic buyer, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been concerned that the mysterious Lord might stop purchasing her bamboo, rendering her efforts in cutting them utterly fruitless.

Truth be told, she harbored a nagging fear that one day, this enigmatic Lord might abruptly cease buying her bamboo.

Among all the new lords, it was only that enigmatic individual who required such a vast quantity of bamboo. She even harbored suspicions that this mysterious lord might be the same one dealing in Spirit Spring Water. Her decision not to hike up the prices was rooted in the mutual benefits of the trade. Thanks to her bamboo sales, her territory had flourished, and she was poised to score highly in the assessment for newcomers.

Qiang Nantie paid no mind to the speculation of others; he was busy stocking the shelves with Spirit Spring Water. The price remained unchanged at 10,500 spirit coins per set. The territory notifications rolled in: “In the International Trade Hall, you’ve sold a set of Spirit Spring Water and earned 10,000 spirit coins.” This message repeated, confirming the success of his sales.

Shortly after the Spirit Spring Water hit the shelves, eager buyers who had caught wind of the sale swarmed in. It was a race against time, with the quickest hands securing their purchase. Qiang Nantie’s coffers swelled by several million spirit coins once more.

​It was then that Qiang Nantie decided to offload the low-level equipment he no longer needed. Tung Quanpan, for instance, had no use for such basic gear, given her limited number of soldiers. Overwhelmed by the sheer volume of his inventory and unimpressed by anything less than Black Iron grade, he sold it all, netting another hefty sum of spirit coins.

The buzz around him grew as more and more people took notice. His stockpile was immense, boasting hundreds of ordinary pieces and over a hundred Black Iron items. The sight of such an arsenal left every lord in the New Territories stunned.

The chatroom was abuzz with astonishment. “Oh my god! This mysterious figure is incredible! He’s not only peddling vast amounts of Spirit Spring Water daily, but now he’s also selling equipment—and he’s got tons of it. Did he loot an armory or something?”

“I did some quick math. Just from selling Spirit Spring Water, this guy’s raked in at least three million spirit coins. Factor in yesterday’s sales, and he’s sitting on over six million spirit coins by now.”

“Oh my god! There are so many wealthy folks around! Where on earth are they getting all these spirit coins?”

“Kid, you’re clueless. There’s this special item called a Spirit Coin Card. With an advanced one, a person can carry a whopping 100 million spirit coins into the Newbie Trials. Me? I’ve got a card that holds 10 million spirit coins. Bet you’re green with envy, huh?”

“You’re bragging about a Spirit Coin Card that holds 10 million? Please. I’ve got one that can store a billion spirit coins.”

“Boss, take me under your wing as your junior.”

“Fellas, interested in some private photos? Only 100 spirit coins each! They’re worth every coin!”

“Boss, I’m available to sleep with you! Could you use that service?”

He had finally amassed over 10 million spirit coins. Yet, the items in the mysterious store remained out of reach.

So, he was still broke.

To afford better gear in the future, he needed to find ways to rack up more spirit coins.

Once his level hit 10, several new statues became available to build within his territory.

But a system alert informed him that his territory’s level was insufficient.

So he set out to upgrade his territory.

The territory alert read, “Your territory has advanced to Level 9.”

The territory alert read, “Your territory has now reached Level 10.”

The territory alert read, “In this Trial, you are the first Lord to elevate your territory to Level 10. The Newbie Trials ranking leaderboard is now active. The system awards you 100 Fame points. The system is about to issue the trial announcement. Would you like to publicize the name of your territory, your real name, and your nationality?”

“Looks like I’m about to get famous again.”

“What a hassle.”

Without a moment’s hesitation, Qiang Nantie declined!

Newbie Trials Announcement: Territory: XXX. Lord: XXX. Nationality: XXX. He is the first Lord to elevate his territory to Level 10, earning a reward of 100 Fame points.

In the international chat room:

“Come out, mysterious one!”

“Better not let me find out who you are!”

“Reported three times in one day? Impressive!”

“Could be three different people, though.”

“I have a strong hunch it’s the same person.”

In the national chat room:

“Now that’s a true power player—he’s been reported again.”

“Which country does this person hail from? It’s only day three, and they’ve already constructed ten buildings?”

“The disparity among humans is just too vast.”

“I’m so disheartened, I need to retreat to my banda and be alone for a while.”
