"Ahh, that"s a Golden Card for real!" Zang Hueru almost leaped in joy as she saw the metallic golden-colored card from the hands of Zin s.h.i.+. Her heart trembled and had the urge to steal the card. However, she stopped herself."What"s with this card?" Jin Rou was confused. He knew that this card was very important that even other customers of the shop stopped by and stared at them. But Zang Hueru"s expression was what astounded Jin Rou. After all, the woman showed intense greed in her eyes that she did not dare to hide.
"The Golden Card, maybe the basic information you have known with regarding this card is that it can let you access all the places in La Estance that only those few of few can only enter, right?" Zang Hueru smiled and started her explanation, "In fact, that"s just the lowest privilege of this card."
"The lowest privilege of this card?" Zin s.h.i.+ was shocked, "You mean there are more benefits than this?"
"Precisely." Zang Hueru answered, "If you have the card, you are ent.i.tled to have a 50% discount for all the goods inside the La Estance. And you can hire a master appraiser for free!"
"That much?" Zin s.h.i.+ was more shocked to hear this. She did not expect that there were still hidden benefits behind this card. No wonder only four of it was distributed in their guild. As it was too priceless to give more than that.
"And not just that!" Zang Hueru smiled and looked at the card again, "With the golden card, you have the right to partic.i.p.ate or watch the Showdown of the Beasts!"
"Showdown of the Beasts!" Zin s.h.i.+ almost took a step back and with widened eyes, "The event that the Zaoyu Tamer Guild hold every five years?"
"You"re quite an informed one, Young Miss." Zang Hueru chuckled, "That"s right. And this coming week would be the exact five years of pa.s.sing! And! that they will hold the event here in La Estance!"
"Is that for real?" The yellow-haired youngmaster was surprised as he forgot to take a breath for a short while.
Showdown of the Beasts. This event was the most antic.i.p.ated from the Zaoyu Tamer Guild, one of the powerhouses who nurtured five Immortal Emperors and three were still alive! Just think about it, a powerhouse that could nurture five Immortal Emperors through their history? What"s more, all of them were 9-star master tamers as well, beings that only a half-step before stepping into the Celestial Realm!
The Showdown of the Beasts was as its name implied. It is a compet.i.tion between beasts with their masters. The showdown was open for registration for all master tamers out there who wanted to experience this. In fact, even one was not a master tamer, they could join as long as they had their tamed beasts.
Many legacy-level sects, sects with Immortal Emperor (s), were always present and send some of their best master tamers to the showdown. Of course, the Zaoyu Tamer Guild, which obviously excels in taming beasts, send their best seeds to conquer the spot.
For the past seven times that the showdown was held, there was no sect that had yet to conquer the first place from the Zaoyu Tamer Guild! The said guild was said to be undefeatable when the recent Immortal Emperor was nurtured. The Zaoyu Tamer Guild had always claimed the first place nonstop, without showing mercy to anyone as they raze every opponent to the ground!
"To think that those two, who looked like country b.u.mpkins, have that card. How is it possible?" The yellow-haired youngmaster as he rubbed his chin with a flash of greed appeared in his eyes.
"Hey, Youngmaster Jin." Zin s.h.i.+ smiled and called Jin Rou, "We can watch the Showdown of the Beasts next week!"
"You want to go to that showdown?" Jin Rou could feel the excitement just by looking at Zin s.h.i.+"s small pretty face, he smiled gently and answered her, "Well, if you want, I won"t mind."
"..." Zin s.h.i.+ was speechless again.
"Ehem ehem, these Young Miss and Youngmaster." Zang Hueru cleared her throat to call the two"s attention and said, "I am here to purchase the card from the Young Miss."
"You want what?" Jin Rou"s brows knitted, showing a bit of displeasure.
"Ahh! This Youngmaster, don"t get me wrong." Zang Hueru smiled and offered, "You can use the card whatever you want. I can also give a 90% discount for the two of you! Or you can choose five items for free and I"ll add 50,000 rubies. But when the showdown"s day comes, I will be getting the golden card from the Young Miss as the exchanged item for the goods I offered."
She gave an enticing and melting smile that made the hearts of the men around tremble, "Isn"t it a good deal?"
The people around nodded in agreement. The offer was really good enough that any of them would already accept it without further ado. After all, Zang Hueru wants the card after a week and the two youngsters could still use the card however they want during that span of time. What"s more, just the 50,000 rubies and the free five items from the shop were more than enough for them! Just think about it, all the items here in this shop were very expensive that the lowest price was 5,000 rubies. Isn"t it terrifying?
Zin s.h.i.+ found it difficult to absorb as she heard the offer. The offer was too good to be true, in fact. She looked at Jin Rou to gesture him to help her what to do. If Jin Rou accepted the offer, then she would accept it also. However, she really wanted to go watch that event deep inside and if given the choice to decline, she would. Given the status of this woman in front of them, she knew that she could not dare to offend her.
However, Jin Rou without hesitation answered, "We refuse. But thank you for the offer."
Silence...
Silence filled the inside of the room as the people were too shocked about what they just heard.
