Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

For the past two weeks, Huang Longxi has been dealing with the aftermath of the sacrifice of his teammate Lao He.

First, there is economic compensation. According to the agreement, the three survivors, Huang Longxi, Huang Longxi, and Huang Longxi, will each give a sum of money to Lao He's family as a basic living guarantee for their later years.

Then there's Lao He's man crystal, which has already been handed over to Lao He's son.

Once Lao He's son awakens and becomes a mage, especially an attack-type mage, he can directly absorb Lao He's human crystals, saving a lot of money on buying magic crystals.

If Lao He's son fails to awaken, then the legacy will continue to be passed on to the next generation.

In fact, these experienced mages were no strangers to the situation of human crystals.

If a teammate dies at the hands of Warcraft, they almost never get their body intact. If you look closely when collecting a teammate's remains, you'll notice this.

Not to mention that in the passage between the two worlds, mages often fight each other, and it is not uncommon for people to die.

Once the human crystal was discovered, it was passed down by word of mouth and was no longer a secret.

They also understand why the authorities have listed this topic as taboo and completely banned it.

The issue of human crystals can indeed easily lead people astray, especially on the black market, where the demand and value of human crystals are often very high.

Of course, even on the black market, the trading of human crystals is a key target for crackdowns, as it is extremely easy to provoke a strong crackdown from the authorities, which could affect the entire black market.

Although it is unknown how the military handles the human crystals of fallen soldiers, Huang Longxi and his group, including many free mage squads, all tacitly agree to treat the human crystals of fallen teammates as a gift, or as a final aid, and pass them on to their descendants.

Unlike when Wang Yi absorbed the enemy's human crystals, due to their blood ties, they preferred to view human crystals as the legendary initiation technique, a great method of transferring power.

Inheriting their fathers' businesses, sons carry on the legacy left by their fathers or mothers, striding forward with great strides.

This is also a kind of inheritance.

Having basically settled things at Lao He's house, Huang Longxi just received news that Wang Yi and the others had settled in at Qifeng Tower.

The person who notified him was naturally Jiang Yingwu, as Huang Longxi had specifically instructed him to do so before leaving Zhuchuan Yuanqiao.

Upon receiving the news, Huang Longxi immediately set off and rushed to Qifeng Tower, where he inquired about Wang Yi's whereabouts from the waiters.

After waiting outside the training room for an hour or so, Wang Yi finally came out and was successfully invited to dinner.

To express his gratitude to Wang Yi and the others for saving his life, Huang Longxi booked the most expensive private room at Qifeng Tower.

Ding Yuanqi and Li Zhi were also present.

Even if the three of them split the bill, this meal would still be considered a huge expense.

Of course, compared to life, this amount of money is really nothing.

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Yi and the others were still students and they were afraid it would make them too embarrassed, Huang Longxi and the others would have really wanted to bring their families and children and kowtow to their benefactors on the spot.

After all, Wang Yi and his team saved not just three people, but three families.

During the banquet, Huang Longxi repeatedly assured that if Wang Yi and the other three ever needed their help in the future, they would do their utmost to help.

Wang Yi had a very good impression of Huanglongxi.

At the very least, their gratitude is commendable.

This world is never short of people who take others' help for granted; nor is it short of people who are grateful for a little help but resentful of much help, and who are more likely to be disliked the greater the favor.

Fortunately, Huanglongxi is not one of them.

In fact, Wang Yi is never stingy when it comes to helping people who can be saved with a helping hand.

This is also why, even though Wang Yi knew that Huang Longxi and the others were familiar with Jiang Yingying, he still didn't let Jiang Yingying crouch down and hide when they were fleeing for their lives.

Wang Yi's requirements were very low. They didn't even need to be strangers. As long as they were familiar people and could avoid causing trouble, that would be enough.

The ambush by Bo Ge and his three companions allowed Wang Yi to witness the darkness and depravity of human nature. Wang Yi wanted to use some bright spots to cleanse and redeem himself.

Fortunately, Huang Longxi's performance did not disappoint Wang Yi.

So in a sense, Huang Longxi and his group saved themselves.

After the meal, Wang Yi actually asked Huang Longxi for a favor.

He handed a magic crystal of a green jade tiger to Huang Longxi, asking Huang Longxi to help sell it and then split the profits 30/70 according to the market price.

Of course, I'll take 70%.

Wang Yi still has two Jade Tiger magic crystals on hand. He kept one for when he advances to the intermediate-level mage.

Considering the high value of the Azure Jade Tiger Demon Crystal, it would be a waste to use the remaining one for cultivation.

However, Bai Yu had warned him not to trade magic crystals on the black market, and Wang Yi always followed her advice.

So, taking this opportunity, I simply found a white glove.

Anyway, how to deal with the magic crystal is Huang Longxi's business; Wang Yi is neither involved nor aware of it.

He simply gave the magic crystal to his friend. As for his friend giving him gifts afterward, with a little cash mixed in, that's perfectly normal.

Friendship is about give and take.

Huang Longxi readily agreed to such a small matter, and said he would not accept a penny, offering Wang Yi 500,000 on the spot.

However, Wang Yi rejected him.

Wang Yi clearly wasn't planning to sell just this one magic crystal; he had quite a few valuable magic crystals in his possession, and there might be more in the future.

Therefore, Wang Yi did not intend to take advantage of Huang Longxi's kindness and demand that he work for her for free.

Given the relationship between him and Huang Longxi, things might be reliable in the short term, but who knows what will happen in the long run?

Wang Yi didn't want to test human nature, so she simply offered ample benefits.

By selling a single magic crystal, Huang Longxi would gain 30% or even more for free.

For freelance mages like them who operate in the gray area, trading on the black market is something they are very familiar with.

The only danger is that if Huang Longxi is arrested, he might implicate himself.

If you really take it seriously, his reason for giving his friend the magic crystal isn't even a reason.

Therefore, Wang Yi did not intend to sell any overly precious magic crystals, lest it attract the attention of law enforcement.

Seeing that Wang Yi insisted on giving him a share, Huang Longxi had no choice but to symbolically accept half a share.

After much haggling, the two parties finally agreed on a price of 20/80.

The scene where the seller keeps pushing down the price while the buyer keeps raising it is a rare sight indeed.

After finishing their meal, discussing their business, and exchanging contact information, Huang Longxi and the other two left.

This jade tiger magic crystal brought Wang Yi another 400,000 in income.

A thunderclap from a clear sky, suddenly bringing wealth.

Holding so much money, Wang Yi didn't know what to do with it for a moment.

He drinks soy milk, one bowl after another, and throws it away. That much money probably wouldn't be enough for him to drink for ten lifetimes.

Therefore, Wang Yi is preparing to customize a consumption plan.

First and foremost, we need to order new halberds, and several of them.

Thinking of this, Wang Yi couldn't help but glance at Wang Jiang.

He had previously thought that the king kept his halberd because he couldn't bear to part with it, and that the halberd held special sentiments for the king.

Later, when Wang Yi left the Zhuchuan Plain Bridge, he saw Wang Jiang casually throw away his halberd, and only then did he realize that he had been overthinking things.

Upon inquiry, it was learned that the reason why the king had gone to the trouble of dismembering the earthworm and taking out the halberd was to have a way to deal with it if he encountered the earthworm again.

Wang Yi expressed her belief in this reasoning.

Although it was never used in the end, I expressed my sincere admiration for the king's thoughtful consideration.

With the money left over from customizing the halberd, Wang Yi planned to choose some practical or unique magic crystals so that he could directly absorb them after advancing to the intermediate level.

This would require going to the Magic Crystal specialty store again and asking the sales staff for help.

However, this time is different from the last time; this time, Wang Yi is truly wealthy.

Not long after Huang Longxi and the others left, Xu Jun drove to Qifeng Tower.

Qi Xiaohao originally wanted Xu Jun to rest for the night, but Xu Jun said that he was not tired at all and that he could rest at a service area on the way.

After saying goodbye to Jiang Yingying's family, Wang Yi and the other three got into the car and embarked on their journey back to Lanling City.
