Start With Contracting Sprites

The thesis had already been made public. The reward system was different from selling unique skills.

It was a one-time redemption, provided by the Union.

"First, it's a million yuan thesis reward."

"Secondly, select three items from the following reward items."

Su Hao looked over.

There were a lot of items available in the inbox.

Many of them were exactly what he coveted.

"Heart of Secondary Fire Attributes, I must have this!"

Right now, Little Fire Crow's spiritual force had barely exceeded 150, completing the "second small compression".

Unless Su Hao made Little Fire Crow break through now, it wouldn't be able to raise its spiritual force to 200 points during the whole winter break.

It was a little too far off as compared to Reverie Butterfly.

"The Heart of Secondary Attributes can shorten a large amount of cultivation time. Perhaps Little Fire Crow can break through before school starts next semester and complete its evolution afterward."

Little Fire Crow's evolution was ordinary.

There were no undiscovered evolution pathways.

From Little Fire Crow to Flaming Cloud Crow, and then to Flaming Spiritcrow.

It evolved very steadily, step by step increasing Little Fire Crow's fire control ability.

"Although there are no new evolution pathways to choose from, the final evolved Flaming Spiritcrow is strong to begin with."

Flaming Spiritcrow was a type of bird sprite of medium size with red and golden feathers.

It could release flames at extremely high temperatures.

"If I can fuse it with other fire seeds, I can even make the Flaming Spiritcrow stronger. However, it's too early to consider this…"

Su Hao shook his head.

All he knew right now was that he had merely reached the elite level. He wouldn't be able to come into contact with anything further.

Silkworm Baby's level wasn't high enough so he couldn't get information from the interface.

"What a pity, if only I had a complete Heart of Attributes."

He looked at the item list again.

Inside the list, the Heart of Secondary Attributes was already the most precious treasure.

A piece was worth at least several million yuan, and it was also priceless.

After all…

This item could only be discovered in the New World, and it was a treasure that couldn't be regenerated. And Sprite Trainers who could discover these items often did not lack the few million yuan.

He either used it on his own sprite.

Or trade it with other Sprite Trainers.

From this point of view, the rewards given by the Union were already very generous.

It was a reward he could obtain only after he provided the complete evolution conditions.

Su Hao also realized that the joint examination had such rich rewards.

He's just scared that...

"It was sponsored by Heavenly King Zhou."

After selecting one, Su Hao continued to browse.

"Should I choose a Heart of Wood-element Secondary Attributes?"

The precious items on the list, limited edition.

Otherwise…

Su Hao wanted to choose two Hearts of Fire-element Secondary Attributes—there was no such thing as being able to only eat one piece.

"Gurgle ~ Gurgle, gurgle ~"

Reverie Butterfly looked at the list, it wasn't envious and even wanted to refuse taking it.

Let's all give it to Little Fire!

Su Hao gave it a glance. "Do you think that you can stop training by giving it to Little Fire Crow? It's impossible."

Reverie Butterfly: "(⊙ ๑ ⊙)"

But it actually wasn't that resistant to training.

It was long used to it.

When it had time, it would take out the spiritual force crystal ball and play with it to train its control.

Occasionally, it would also watch how Su Hao used his Su-style stimulation methods on Little Fire.

But it no longer needed to be pricked anymore.

The joy of Reverie Butterfly was just that simple and plain.

In the end, Su Hao made his final decision on the other two items.

Feather of Fire.

And a Stone of Illusion.

The Stone of Illusion was a special medium. It contained an illusion built by an extraordinary illusion sprite.

And some of its insights.

It was very helpful in learning the usage of "Dream Building" for Reverie Butterfly.

And the Feather of Fire could subtly nourish Little Fire Crow's feathers. It was said that the Feather of Fire came from a powerful fire-element sprite.

"The authorization level has also increased."

On the Union's intranet, his level had already risen to Level 4.

He unlocked the New World section.

There was also a notification message from the official website.

"Dear Mr. Su Hao, in view of the fact that your sprite is relatively weak, if you are more interested in the New World, please exercise restraint. You are not encouraged to explore the new world."

In other words: You're weak. You can only take a look. There's a high chance that you'll end up dead.

Su Hao was rendered speechless.

But this warning made him even more curious about the New World.

Back at the Green Blue Base, they came and went in a hurry under Heavenly King Zhou's lead. They didn't know much about the place.

Su Hao tapped and entered the New World section.

What entered his eyes were various areas.

The areas were divided according to the New World entrances of Dragon Nation.

There were a total of 28 entrances, including Green Blue Base.

After looking at the beginner's manual, Su Hao roughly understood.

"The New World is a very vast world. Although there are 28 entrances in Dragon Nation alone, each town or city on the opposite side of the entrance is very far away."

But in fact…

Su Hao only saw four positions, split into two pairs with each pair being close to each other. As for the others, it was hard to say which direction they were situated in the New World. The environment on the opposite side of many entrances was too different.

And Dragon Nation's current exploration of the New World was still very limited.

"But there doesn't seem to be any danger mentioned, right?"

What restricted Sprite Trainers from exploring was the wild sprites of the New World.

The sprites there were strong indeed. There was no lack of sprite hegemons who had lived for hundreds of years. Heavenly King-level Sprite Trainers might not even be their match.

"But those sprites aren't stupid, they wouldn't attack cities with a Heavenly King level Sprite Trainer for no reason."

Su Hao concluded.

In the New World, as long as he did not wander too far away from human cities, it was not that dangerous.

However, he suspected that there were more than 28 New World entrances in Dragon Nation. Some had not been announced yet.

Su Hao opened the forum of Green Blue Base City.

Some were calling for teams, some were doing missions, some were posting material rewards…

Huang Tianlu (Elite): "Requesting a team for Shuangmu Forest. There are two Elite-level sprites, Mountain Moving Ape and Stone Giant. Looking for a water-element Sprite Trainer, good at long-range attacks and a female. You can relax the first two conditions. Meet me at the Blue Sky Tavern for interested applicants."

Zhou Ying (Elite): "Requesting for materials, Dragon Snake Sprout. The price is negotiable."

Luo Liangzhe (Master-level) (certified: Garrison Guard of the Blue Town): "Emerald Spiritual Jade Mineral Defense Mission, two months. Three slots left. Those interested can send me a private message."

It was no different from what he had seen on the game forum.

The only difference was that it was real. Everyone was certified by their real names. There were no keyboard warriors here. If there were, they would definitely be offline experts.

"The New World is so rich in resources, no wonder information is restricted."

For example, jade powder.

It came from a Spirit Jade mine.

If an ordinary person picked up a few spiritual jades, becoming rich overnight was not a dream anymore.

Humans dared to put their lives on the line when facing 1,000% benefits.

Once the New World is opened to the public without restrictions, it would definitely attract a large number of risk-takers in minutes.

But without elite-level strength, most of these people would only die in the wild. Perhaps a small number of lucky ones would survive and eventually attract the eyes of many, causing them to become targets.

It was also impossible for society to be as stable as it was now.

Therefore…

The Union of Sprite Trainers restricted information about the New World. Those who wanted to do business in the New World had to be at least elite-level Sprite Trainers.

Or having someone of elite-level in charge under them.

Emmmmmm I didn't write it carelessly, it took me at least three hours to edit the last chapter. However, since all of you mentioned it, I can only… hug my head and reflect upon myself.
