'Does the meaning of "Tendo" mean this otter has bad intentions?'
'Possibly, I can smell a conspiracy.'
'Do you all remember the Heavenly Martial Coins the otter mentioned earlier? It feels like obtaining that stuff is not as simple as we imagine.'
Although "Tendo" only said a simple sentence, combined with the previous plot, most dimensional viewers immediately saw the undercurrent hidden beneath the seemingly relaxed atmosphere.
Because if someone spent money lavishly, leading to an over-consumption of Heavenly Martial Coins that exceeded their original capacity, how would they pay it back later?
The so-called trap should be hidden in the process of repaying those Heavenly Martial Coins.
But just like fishing requires baiting the spot first, and a trap needs bait, the Otter Administrator first threw out the '20% discount' and then started telling everyone about the benefits they could enjoy within the Heavenly Martial Training Base.
"Everyone, please look at the wristbands on your hands."
The Otter Administrator's voice carried a deliberate tone, and its paw pointed to the silver wristbands on everyone's wrists.
That was the item distributed during the qualification assessment. Previously, everyone only considered it a 'Tear of the Stars locator,' and no one thought it had other uses.
But now, it seems the use of this wristband is far greater than they imagined.
Under everyone's curious gaze, information began to flash continuously on the wristbands.
Chen Kong subconsciously lowered his head. The wristband screen suddenly lit up, and pale blue holographic text unfolded slowly like an exquisite electronic file.
The Cluster of Stars Production Team understood the audience's mind well and cut the camera directly to Chen Kong's first-person perspective, allowing the dimensional viewers to clearly see every line of text.
[Congratulations on completing the Heavenly Martial Training Base 'Beginner Trial']
[Reward: 1000 Heavenly Martial Coins (requires signing the 'Confidentiality Code' before receiving) ]
[Name: Chen Kong]
[Overall Rank: 249]
[Student Level: Yellow-rank]
[Monthly Heavenly Martial Coins Available: 8 (Martial Arts Badges 7 + Yellow-rank Student 1)]
"Kong, how many Heavenly Martial Coins can you receive now?"
After checking his own 'deposit,' Liu Ma immediately looked at Chen Kong curiously.
Chen Kong didn't mind his personal privacy and directly showed his wristband to Liu Ma.
Similar to Chen Kong, Liu Ma had heard people say that 'Martial Arts Badges' were important for the upcoming 'Ranking Competition,' but exactly how important they were, those who knew seemed to have signed some kind of contract with the Celestial Martial Kirin Tower.
They all remained silent.
Only a very small amount of gossip trickled out.
"I wish I had found a way to get more Martial Arts Badges back then."
Looking at the paltry '7' Heavenly Martial Coins he could receive monthly, Chen Kong couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Liu Ma also felt a deep sense of regret.
However, he didn't dwell on it too much. After all, the martial arts high-rise towers were right there, and they could go out and continue challenging them at any time.
The Heavenly Martial Training Base would not restrict their going out.
In fact, it could even be said that they would be fine even if they stayed outside all the time.
But ordinary people wouldn't want to leave this place easily.
Because just by being in this plaza, Chen Kong and the others had already noticed the abnormality of the area.
The Star Energy concentration here was at least three times that of the outside world, and the air here seemed to contain some kind of special power, making their Star Source and Star Core more active and more conducive to subsequent development.
Cultivating here for one day was equivalent to cultivating outside for five days.
Seeing that everyone had finished looking at their wristbands, the Otter Administrator began to address some issues that everyone was very concerned about.
"Alright, since everyone has finished looking at their information, let me talk about other things."
As the words fell, a pitch-black blackboard suddenly rose in the center of the square.
The Otter Administrator, at some unknown point, had suddenly changed into a miniature black suit.
Gold-rimmed glasses slipped to the tip of its nose, and a silver pointer was clenched in its paw, presenting an amusing appearance of an 'animal teacher.'
"Ahem!"
It cleared its throat, then tapped the blackboard with the pointer.
"Regarding the rules of the Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Competition, everyone, please listen carefully!"
"The first stage of the Ranking Competition lasts for one year. Within this year, Students ranked below 250 or with fewer than 25 climbing layers will be eliminated."
"In other words, even if your rank enters the top 250, if your number of climbing layers is insufficient, you will still be sent out of here."
The otter paused, then continued speaking.
"The second stage of the Ranking Competition also lasts for one year. During this year, those ranked below 100 or with fewer than 50 climbing layers will be eliminated."
"The third stage of the Ranking Competition is still one year. During this year, Students ranked outside the top ten or with fewer than 80 climbing layers will also be eliminated."
Speaking of this, the Otter Administrator suddenly showed a meaningful smile, perhaps thinking of something.
"However, you don't need to be too concerned about the ranking, because throughout the previous Ranking Competitions, the key to whether or not you are eliminated has never been the rank, but the number of climbing layers!"
"After all, I have never seen a single session where the number of Students matching the maximum rank quota was full."
Hearing this, Vivian in the crowd suddenly raised her hand, her tactical tablet displaying the search interface for 'Heavenly Martial Coin Acquisition.'
Seeing this, the Otter Administrator's pointer immediately pointed at her.
"This student, please ask if you have any questions."
"If Heavenly Martial Coins are insufficient, besides the monthly allowance, are there any other ways to acquire them?"
"Excellent question!"
The Otter Administrator's eyes lit up, and then it said loudly, "Besides the method this student just mentioned, this training base has three other regular channels for acquiring Heavenly Martial Coins."
"First, Base Missions."
"As long as you can complete the missions released by the base on time, the base will give you corresponding Heavenly Martial Coins as a reward, according to the difficulty of the mission."
"Second, Climbing Layers."
"Similar to the Martial Arts Badges, for every successful climb of a Kirin Tower layer, you will not only receive the reward for that layer, but you will also increase the amount of Heavenly Martial Coins you can receive monthly."
"It's worth noting that the higher the layer, the more Heavenly Martial Coins you can obtain, and this amount increases exponentially."
"Third, Student Loans."
At this point, the pointer in the Otter Administrator's paw suddenly turned into a golden bell.
"This base has good business relations with major banks of the New Federation. If you need a large amount of Heavenly Martial Coins in the short term and cannot find a way to acquire them, you can try the student loans of this base."
"However, you need to be aware that we only accept Heavenly Martial Coins."
It deliberately drew out its tone, its round eyes scanning the crowd, leaving the sentence unfinished, but the implication in its eyes made many people's hearts sink.
This student loan is probably a trap.
