“Congratulations on becoming the second place.” Ting Lan saw Chu Mu slowly approaching and a faint smile appeared on her face.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

“Thank you.” Chu Mu nodded, “Miss Ting Lan, you seem to know the main organizer, could you please help me?” Chu Mu said.

“Oh?” Ting Lan raised her delicate eyebrows.

“I’ve ordered a spirit item worth 100 million and today is the deadline. It seems like the 30 million in rewards from this year’s competition might be delayed, so I want to secure this funding today,” Chu Mu said.

“It’s just a small matter, I’ll just say a word.” Ting Lan laughed lightly.

In fact, when Ting Lan noticed that Chu Mu needed her help, she subconsciously assumed it to be a difficult task, never expecting it to be merely a small matter like this. She thought that Chu Mu didn’t seem like the type of man who would casually seek help from others, especially since they hardly knew each other.

“How come you look so worried even after winning the competition? Could it be that you don’t have enough money?” Ting Lan was quite observant.

“Yeah, I’m still short of 10 million. I need to go to the trading place to pawn the soul armor of my soul pet. I’ll leave first, and I’ll leave the matter to Miss Ting Lan,” Chu Mu said.

Helplessly, Chu Mu could only let Zhan Ye take off its equipment for now and buy the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox with the money. He could always buy better equipment for Zhan Ye later when he had money.

“I have some extra money on hand. I can lend you the 10 million for now, and you can pay me back when you have the funds,” Ting Lan saw that Chu Mu was in a hurry, so she offered to help him out.

In fact, Ting Lan wanted to get to know talented young experts like Chu Mu, and 10 million wasn’t that big of an amount for her. She didn’t have anything particularly expensive to buy right now, so lending the 10 million to Chu Mu was a small favor.

“We are all part of Soul Hall and should help each other,” Ting Lan softly explained.

Chu Mu hesitated for a moment but thought that it might be better to borrow the 10 million from Ting Lan for now, instead of rushing to the trading place to sell the Level 6 Full-State Offensive Soul Equipment, which might not necessarily fetch the 10 million. He could pay her back soon anyway.

“That would be great. I appreciate it, Miss Ting Lan,” Chu Mu nodded.

“Hello, Chu Chen, we have met before,” Da Kun said at a timely manner, showing a friendly demeanor, seemingly wanting to make friends with Chu Mu.

Chu Mu simply responded with a few words and didn’t engage in further conversation. He quickly left the arena, intending to meet up with the person who had the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox.

Ting Lan watched Chu Mu leave, wondering if he had an even more powerful soul pet, as he had purchased the 100 million strengthening spirit item. She couldn’t help but feel a mysterious impression about this Chu Chen who was referred to as a level 0.

After receiving the 100 million in funds, Chu Mu excitedly headed towards Soul Hall. That was an item capable of boosting Little Mo Xie from the Seventh Rank 5th Stage to the Seventh Rank 9th Stage, and once Little Mo Xie broke into the Eighth Stage, Chu Mu’s strength would leap another huge step!

“Wu wu wu” Little Mo Xie lay on Chu Mu’s shoulder, looking ecstatic. After such a long time, it finally got a delicious treat, and after eating the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox, Little Mo Xie wouldn’t need to watch the White Nightmare Demon’s expressions anymore and could teach this white demon a lesson!

“I’m sorry, but that person has left temporarily due to urgent matters,” The female attendant explained quietly.

“What? How could he just run away like that! What about the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox?” Chu Mu said with a hint of anger.

“It was taken away by him as well. Since the trade was canceled because of his reason, he is willing to compensate you with 5 million in liquidated damages. However, he said that if you still want to continue the trade, you can go to World City, and he can keep it for you there. The price can also be renegotiated,” the female attendant said.

Chu Mu’s face didn’t look good. He had gone to great lengths to gather enough money and was excited to buy the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox, but this person just ran away with a simple excuse of having something urgent to attend to.

“Would you like to continue the trade, or cancel it? If you cancel, I will give you the 5 million in liquidated damages. If you wish to continue, I will inform that person to reserve it for you.”

“Let’s continue the trade. I also happen to be heading to World City.” Chu Mu didn’t care about the 5 million in liquidated damages; what he wanted was the Heart of the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox!

Chu Mu had already decided to head straight for World City.

Chu Mu had asked Master Li about how long it would take to reach World City without any stops along the way.

“At least three months…” Master Li said.

“… It takes three months to travel there…” Chu Mu sighed.

World City was indeed quite far away. Chu Mu had been traveling eastward for over a year, and according to Master Li, World City wasn’t even located in the middle of all the realms, but a huge city where all major powers were gathered…

No matter how big the world was, Chu Mu believed that World City would become one of his stops, and he would spend a long period of time to grow step by step in the environment that gathered all forces in one city.

“WUUUUUUU~~” Little Mo Xie, who didn’t get to eat the delicious treat, let out a resentful sound, looking listless.

Chu Mu gently stroked this coquettish whining little fellow, explaining, “Don’t worry, this thing will be yours sooner or later. Perhaps this can be a key to your metamorphosis from Seventh Rank to Eighth Rank.”

“WUUUUUUU” Mentioning the Eighth Rank, Little Mo Xie got excited and started to glow, obviously eager to reach that level as soon as possible.

Chu Mu returned the 10 million to Ting Lan, who hinted that she would also go to World City and could travel with Chu Mu.

Apart from Ting Lan, Luo Peng and several other young generation experts wanted to travel with Chu Mu. As Chu Mu needed to enhance the strength of all his soul pets, he declined their good intentions and still planned to travel to World City alone.

“Chu Chen, in half a year, at World City, I want to fight you again!” Luo Peng pointed at Chu Mu before leaving.

Chu Mu was the only one among his peers to defeat Luo Peng, so Luo Peng had to regain his dignity no matter what.

“Alright, I hope that by then, you can summon your fourth pet,” Chu Mu nodded.

Luo Peng’s face darkened quickly. Unable to summon his fourth pet had always been a source of dissatisfaction and annoyance to Luo Peng. However, thinking that his opponent was also a Soul Lord, and even two stages higher than him, Luo Peng’s confidence was somewhat shaken.

After bidding farewell to Ting Lan and others, Chu Mu soon fell into deep thought.

If the strong contestants in The World Decree were all experts like Ting Lan, wouldn’t he stand no chance of winning?

Moreover, Chu Mu still remembered that Fox Elder once said that there were definitely Tenth Rank soul pets among the young generation. Even if these Tenth Rank soul pets were Commander Level, they would be more than enough to defeat all of Chu Mu’s soul pets easily. So, before The World Decree started, did Chu Mu have the qualifications to participate in this world’s most authoritative contest for young generations?

“Young Master, there’s about a year left before The World Decree. In fact, it’s almost impossible for you to get a good ranking in this competition since your soul pets have not grown and metamorphosed to their most mature forms. The World Decree is held every six years, and you will still be a young generation member when the next one is held. By that time, it would be hard for anyone in this world to stop you from obtaining that Emperor-level soul pet!” Fox Elder said.

“So, you also don’t recommend me to participate in The World Decree?” Chu Mu asked.

“Participate, of course! This is a rare opportunity to practice. When you get to World City, you’ll know that The World Decree is much more than just a competition among young generations,” Fox Elder replied.

“Isn’t it just an authoritative contest?” Chu Mu said, confused.

“How can The World Decree be just a contest…” Fox Elder rolled his eyes.

“So, what is it?” Chu Mu asked, confused.

“You won’t be able to understand it until you’ve formed some concepts of power, strength, money, soul pets, authority, and unknowns…” Fox Elder said.

Fox Elder’s words made Chu Mu feel very ignorant.

Thinking back, Chu Mu did think that The World Decree should be a magnificent contest where all the experts gathered. But after hearing Fox Elder say this, he started to doubt that. What form was The World Decree?

“Young Master, do you plan to take a year to slowly experience your way to World City or directly rush to World City in three months and start your strength improvement journey in that kind of environment?” Fox Elder asked.

As soon as The World Decree was mentioned, Chu Mu naturally thought of Princess Jinrou from Nightmare Demon Palace. Princess Jinrou was around the same age as him. Logically speaking, her participation in this World Decree should be quite a disadvantage. Was she just embracing the spirit of participation?

However, Chu Mu felt that Princess Jinrou didn’t seem to be just participating. She seemed to have a strong desire to get something.

“Young Master, didn’t you hear me talking?” Fox Elder shook his ugly tail, letting those few strands of extremely uncomfortable mixed hair float in front of Chu Mu’s face…

Chu Mu was thinking about Princess Jinrou’s question. When he came back to his senses, he asked Fox Elder directly.

“Actually, The World Decree has several tiers. The first few tiers are obviously not suitable for the Young Master’s current level to compete in, but the later tiers can bring great benefits to the Young Master’s current level. I think that little girl from Nightmare Demon Palace you mentioned wants to compete for the rewards in the other tiers. Among the young generation, there are levels too. I think as long as the Young Master can excel in the third tier, it would already bring great honor to Her Highness the Female Venerate, Of course, if the Young Master is more daring and tries for the second tier, hehe, then the Young Master might be able to match your father in the past.”

“My father participated in The World Decree?” Chu Mu asked in surprise.

“Of course. Chu Tianmang took part in two periods. In the first one, he achieved excellent results in the second tier. In the second one, he shocked all major powers and finally obtained that Emperor-level soul pet. However, for some reason, the Emperor-level soul pet he obtained was taken back later, then his already mature main soul pet was sealed, and finally, he ended up in a miserable state raising kids for the Female Venerate.”
