Chapter 715: Chapter 715

After adapting to his new power, Du You didn’t feel in complete control, which is why he chose not to continue leveling up the three individuals.

That day, Du You left the two sisters to their own devices and went to school. By now, the setup Liu Xianglong had in the school had escalated significantly. He had even leased out a dedicated office in the school.

Among the batch of students in the school, both graduates and non-graduates, numerous people had already joined the organization established by Liu Xianglong. Once Liu Xianglong graduated, he planned to establish a new company.

Such potential students even raised great expectations within the college.

After arriving at the office, Du You pulled out the Centipede King altar and skill stone (self-explode) from his possession.

"I heard you guys could utilize this thing, quote me a price." This place was initially prepared by Liu Xianglong as a trading spot. In a short period of time, it had already gained significant influence both inside and outside the academy.

Undeniably, enticing others to join using a territory as bait is indeed an effective strategy for expansion. If Du You were to offer his territory, perhaps the rate of his development would surpass their current rate.

Liu Xianglong had been working on his land for quite some time, yet his territory has just been promoted to the third tier. This was only achievable with the help of many people. Further, none of the three major buildings have been built, unlike his own which already has a Lord’s Mansion. As for internal management, Du You was unsure and there wasn’t much discussion among the outsiders.

However, it was rumored that several factions had emerged within Liu Xianglong’s territory. If Liu Xianglong couldn’t keep them in check, his territory would be thrown into chaos. This was where Du You held the advantage.

"Ah, I’m not in a position to decide this. Let me get our manager," replied the student on duty who then rushed off to the back. Du You appeared slightly taken aback: "Manager? Aren’t they all still students? They’ve adapted rather quickly to the new changes."

Given that the company is not yet established, these honorary titles have been unnecessarily assigned, which left Du You speechless. Different people have different thoughts; it would be impossible for them not to understand the situation at all. They’re stronger when they work together as a group compared to working individually.

A senior student soon appeared; he was a member of the graduation class.

"Du You, we’ve heard a lot about you. I’m Li Mu, the manager for external trade. Although the company has not been established yet, these are all just titles. We aren’t sure what will happen in the future."

Despite his words, Du You saw the smug look on Li Mu’s face quite clearly.

"You flatter me. My main goal today is to trade. This item should be useful to you. If you’re not interested, I might try the auction house. The response there should be better."

Among the people near the academy, not a few had territories; a territory is not a rare object. What made a sensation is that there are only a few students who had territory.

If this item were brought to the auction house, it would likely be sold quickly. Thinking along these lines, Li Mu’s smugness quickly faded.

"We do, of course, buy it. I wonder what your preferred method of payment would be, Du You. By selling to us, your status would quickly surpass mine in our company", argued Li Mu. With a Centipede King altar in his possession, it was certain that Du You was a third-tier strength. Furthermore, the hint of intimidation radiating from Du You was not lost on Li Mu.

Such a promising individual, would definitely not be just an average person in the future.

If Li Mu could manage to recruit him to his company, Li Mu might have a promising future to rely on. The better Du You progressed, the more favorable it would be for Li Mu.

Du You shook his head, "As of now, I have no intentions of joining any organization."

Li Mu was somewhat disappointed, but didn’t say anything. It was quite common for promising individuals to hold out for a better offer. If he were easily persuaded to join in, there would be no need for Li Mu to recruit him.

"Take a look at this, these are the items we use for trading. If you’re not satisfied, you can always choose from the warehouse."

Looking at the inventory list that Li Mu provided, Du You squinted his eyes. He didn’t expect that within a short time, they had already gathered so many items. Indeed, strength lies in numbers. As the number of professionals increased, collecting various items required by the professionals also became easier.

Du You didn’t have a chance to visit the warehouse because he had already chosen his needed items. "Just these two items will do. They are suitable for exchange." Du You selected the Summon Sacrifice and Holy Light Chain.

Skill Stone (Summon Sacrifice) - Choose one of your Summoned Beasts to sacrificially eliminate. After the sacrifice, the Summoned Beast dies and you restore mana, the amount of restored mana is equal to 1/3 of the Summoned Beast’s life force and Magic Power. (Level 1, 8 stars)

This was an extremely rare Magic Power restoration skill—one that he could not obtain locally. Conveniently, combined with the Magic fountain, both sisters’ Magic Power recovery abilities would be filled out. He was now just waiting to find a Demon for conversion, solving the problem of their lack of endurance in battle.

Holy Light Chain: Enhances physical constitution by 26, increases speed by 25, increases Light Attribute skill power by 20%. Comes with the Life Revive skill. When severely injured, will automatically activate and the injured state will vanish. Cooldown time is 24 hours. (Deep Green)

This was not an item for professionals to use, but for a pet. When Du You saw this item, he knew it was meant for the Unicorn. It would not only increase the Unicorn’s power but also effectively grant it an extra life.

The automatic recovery from severe injury could, in a life or death situation, potentially save its life. As the unicorn only has one life, this reduces a lot of safety problems.

As for the other pets, Du You did not have enough Crystal coins to kit them out with gear.

After the item exchange, Du You prepared to leave, but Li Mu was still reluctant: "Would you consider reconsidering our offer? There’s great potential in our company. It’s not easy having a territory while still in university."

Du You waved his hand dismissively and left without a look back: "I’ll think about it."

Although he spoke in such a manner, the tone made it clear—even with consideration, he wasn’t interested.

A sense of frustration flashed in Li Mu’s eyes. Such an excellent opportunity wasted. No, I must report this. Others must be informed that Du You has reached the third tier. Anyone not recruiting someone like him is simply wasting resources.

Unaware of Li Mu’s thoughts, Du You’s attention was drawn to the new mission from the academy at the moment.
