Chapter 17: Pay Up, Young Man

The system could tell what the young man was thinking based on his expression. It began explaining and Qin Feng slowly gained a new understanding of his old house.

For example, what could be fished from the Myriad World Pond depended on the special value. As for the treasure value, it referred to the creature’s quality. Currently, the creatures obtainable from the pond were relatively low-level. As the level increased, the variety and quality would follow suit. Qin Feng could even fish out divine dragons. However, the quality would only be determined once the creature exited the pond. It could be a rainbow or ice-fire dragon. Basically, each creature had its own unique characteristics.

The Otherworldly Dump had power and attraction value. Power was self-explanatory and it applied to the items. As for attraction value, it worked like an automatic filter. Higher level attraction value had greater chances of bringing in better items.

As for the Hack Shadow, it consisted of theft and snatch values. Theft value determined the shadow’s victim. Meanwhile, snatch value was related to the victim’s strength. A victim with only one point would not be strong at all. If Qin Feng raised the shadow’s level, it could even steal from a saint.

Special Training Field was the latest ability. Qin Feng had not even tried it yet. Based on the system’s explanation, his chances of breaking through would increase if he trained on the field. He could also improve and perfect his techniques. In short, it would be like having a martial arts master by his side.

Of course, leveling these abilities would not be easy. If Qin Feng was desperate to level a certain ability, he could actually do it by spending coins! When the system explained this part, Qin Feng was flabbergasted. He only had a few hundred coins left in his bank account and one hundred thousand was needed for a singular level.

“F*ck! These systems are so deceptive!”

One hundred thousand federation coins? With that amount, he could instantly buy a house in the city. A normal person would only earn five hundred to one thousand coins per month. The amount needed to level up was simply astronomical. Besides, what if the price increased as the levels became higher? In the future, would it cost two hundred thousand coins per level? Or three hundred thousand? Maybe even a million?

“That’s actually right. So, what do you think?” said the system thoughtfully.

“…”

The price would increase whenever an ability’s level had the number “5” in it. This could be considered an investment. Qin Feng tried not to think too much about it. For powerful martial artists, earning coins was actually not that hard.

For instance, if Qin Feng was successfully admitted into Jiang University, the school would award him fifty thousand coins. Different sums of coins would also be given according to the student’s grades. An “S” grade would net him two hundred thousand federation coins.

In order to attract talents, Jiang University would also make a ranking list every year. The top fifty new students would be rewarded with federation coins. Those in the top ten would obtain pills and weapons. As for the top three, there were even more lucrative prizes.

Qin Feng did not care about the pills and weapons. He already had an indispensable mansion. Only the prize money was important!

Still, those pills and weapons could be sold for money. Of course, Qin Feng had no plans to sell anything that was obtained from his mansion. They were extremely precious. Moreover, it was too risky. What if someone found out about his secret? Things might turn ugly.

In conclusion, he definitely had to enter Jiang University! There was no other way for him to earn coins. It was not as if he could go around killing people and robbing their belongings, right? Even if he was willing, he would be caught at once. Then, his life would be over.

Qin Feng was a low-profile type of person. Before he had absolute strength and power, revealing his secrets would be suicidal. There was also another problem. If he entered Jiang University, would it be troublesome for him to travel back and forth every day?

Just as he was thinking, the system opened its mouth.

“This house has a teleportation system. It can teleport you back once a day from anywhere and at any time. However, the cooldown period is 24 hours. Young man, use it wisely. Now, go earn some money and pay up! Leave the house chores to me!”

If the system’s body was not holographic, Qin Feng would have beaten it up.

What nonsense! He had to go out and earn money while the system was just a housekeeper? F*ck!
