“So, you got to feel what it’s like to have money burn a hole through your pocket, huh?” Nong Lejia said to Ye Xuan with a smile while driving.
“Yeah.” Ye Xuan nodded his head speechlessly.
Throughout the entire day today, he hardly did anything else.
Most of the time, he was immersed in the Ancient Wood Elf combat videos provided by the Combat Watch.
These videos not only included videos from the Country of Xia, but also videos from abroad.
All of which were uploaded by geniuses from various countries.
In order to watch these videos, he had to pay a fee.
In just one day, he’d spent about half of the 100,000 dollars of the first top-up on the Combat Watch.
“Hahah.” Seeing Ye Xuan’s expression, Nong Lejia laughed.
“Compared to yours, my family’s better off financially, but even so, since I became a Dark Iron Beast Tamer, my family hasn’t been able to provide me with much support.
“After I became a Silver Beast Tamer, the money my fam gave me was like a hair off a bull’s back. So, I have to work hard for everything.
“Your aptitude is better than mine, and the contract you signed is also much better than mine. But even so, money will still become an issue later on.
“After all, just like what Miss Lin said, universities aren’t charities, and they don’t raise good-for-nothings. So, you have to work hard to make money yourself.”
Work hard to make money?
Ye Xuan was startled. He asked, “Brother Le Jia, do you know of any ways to make money?”
“Well, the Amber Secret Realm tomorrow is one of the ways,” Nong Lejia said while smiling. “Every time the Amber Secret Realm opens, only one four-star Amber Dragon will be born. But to be frank with you, you might not be able to defeat a four-star Amber Dragon.
“When you encounter it, you may have to leave the secret realm early.
“Not to mention that three teams of dozens of other students will enter the secret realm with you. If you want to compete with them for the Amber Dragon, it’ll make things even more difficult.”
Having said that, Nong Lejia paused and said,
“So, my advice to you is, after you enter the secret realm, try to kill the low-level monsters inside.
“When monsters in the Amber Secret Realm are killed, they will all dissipate as Amber Aura, and they may leave behind an Amber Heart.
“The Amber Heart is a pretty great evolution material. Collect some and bring them out. You should be able to earn a considerable amount from those to settle your urgent needs.”
“Really? I understand!” Ye Xuan was inspired.
However, when he thought about how he would enter the secret realm to fight the monster tomorrow, even though he was looking forward to it, he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
Seeing Ye Xuan’s expression, Nong Lejia smiled and said, “Plus, giving you more chances to fight monsters is the real purpose of why Miss Lin is allowing you to enter the Amber Secret Realm.
“At this point in time, you can’t still be thinking that Miss Lin is allowing you to enter the Amber Secret Realm because she wants you to tame that four-star Amber Dragon, right?”
“Relax, Brother Lejia. I won’t force the issue.” Ye Xuan smiled bitterly.
He had already figured this out.
Creak!
After a short while, Nong Lejia stopped the car in front of Ye Xuan’s house and said, “Get yourself some good rest tonight. The opening of the Amber Secret Realm isn’t a one-day affair.
“If you can persist, you might be staying in there for a couple of days.”
“Alright, Brother Lejia. Safe journey.” Ye Xuan nodded, and after Nong Lejia drove away, he walked towards his house.
Before entering the door, Ye Xuan asked Lil Wan, who was standing on his shoulder, “Lil Wan, I have such a big surprise for mom and dad. How do you think they’ll welcome us?”
Lil Wan had spent most of the car ride hiding in his pocket, and she hadn’t popped out until he’d gotten out of the car.
Lil Wan had lived with their family for so many years. In fact, Ye Xuan’s parents had long regarded Lil Wan as their own daughter.
Lil Wan blinked and said, “They’ll prepare us a lot of yummy food, I guess?”
“I’m thinking the same!” Ye Xuan nodded.
Then, he strode two steps forward, opened the door to the house with a key, walked inside, and shouted, “Dad, Mom, Lil Wan and I are home.”
“Oh, so you still know how to tell us when you get back home, eh?”
