Chapter 353: Arcanist Tower

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After staying in the city for half a month, Xu Ning had basically figured out the situation in the city.

The City of Arcanists was jointly ruled by many parties, and the various forces consisted of many arcanist institutions and arcanist families.

Outside the city, arcanists gathered through joining institutions. There were very few arcanist families.

But in the city, the number of arcanist families was basically the same as the number of arcanist institutions.

After Xu Ning made some preparations, he decided to join an arcanist family.

Recently in the City of Arcanist, the major arcanist institutions and arcanist families were recruiting mid to high level arcanists above the rank of six and seven.

By gathering some information, Xu Ning discovered that the Arcanist Tower was about to be open, which was why so many strong arcanists were being openly recruited by various factions to form teams to enter the tower.

Arcanist Tower was right in the heart of the City of Arcanists.

According to the legends, this Arcanist Tower was forged many years ago by three rank ten arcanists.

Rank ten arcanists were equivalent to grandmasters in the Martial Arts World, the realm where Duan Huiye and Yu Zhiyin was in.

After those three rank ten arcanists finished building the Arcanist Tower, they vanished without a trace.

From then on, there was no more appearance of a rank ten arcanist in the Arcanist World.

Some said that the secret to advancing to rank ten lay within the Arcanist Tower.

And because of that, various arcanist factions would recruit tons of strong arcanists to explore the tower whenever it opens every ten years.

Now, there was only less than two months until the next opening of the Arcanist Tower.

Xu Ning was truly fortunate to have come to the City of Arcanists at this period of time.

Since the opportunity to explore the Arcanist Tower was right in front of him, Xu Ning would not let this opportunity slip.

By joining an arcanist family, not only could he receive resources as reward for choosing them as his backing, he could even gain the chance to enter the Arcanist Tower.

The faction Xu Ning chose to join was the reputable Gao Arcanist Family in the City of Arcanists.

The overall combat strength of this arcanist family was top five in the City of Arcanists.

As for why he joined the Gao Arcanist Family and not other arcanist factions, the reason was simple. It was because the Gao arcanist family paid the most.

As long as he accepted the recruitment of the Gao family, even if he did nothing, he would receive the first batch of rewards. If these rewards were exchanged into energy units, they were worth 5 million.

After coming out of the tower, he would receive the second batch of rewards, which was also worth 5 million units.

This also meant that after coming out of the tower, Xu Ning would receive 10 million units of energy.

The energy he required to advance from rank seven to rank eight was 25 million units. By doing this, Xu Ning had gathered 40% of the energy he needed to advance.

This was almost unimaginable outside the city.

“I’m here to join the exploration team of the Arcanist Tower.”

After Xu Ning came to the Gao family, he explained his intentions.

The guard led Xu Ning into the Gao family mansion and brought him to a middle-aged man.

Xu Ning sensed the powerful aura of a rank eight arcanist from this middle-aged man.

“Rank seven arcanist?”

The middle-aged man asked Xu Ning in an unsure tone.

When he sensed Xu Ning’s strength, he felt a little confused.

“Yes, I am a rank seven arcanist.”

Xu Ning said.

“Pretty good foundation.”

The middle-aged man praised.

He could sense that Xu Ning was a peak rank seven arcanist.

The Gao family’s exploration team was in shortage of experts, so Xu Ning’s entry was like a godsend.

“Have you entered the tower before?”

The middle-aged man asked.

“No.”

Xu Ning responded.

“There are various rich resources in the tower, but it is also full of danger. I won’t hide it from you, there is a great risk of death.”

The middle-aged man was quite honest. He explained the dangers to Xu Ning first.

“I understand.”

Xu Ning’s expression remained blank.

This Arcanist Tower looked a little like a mystic realm in the Martial Arts World.

“Once you join the exploration team, you can’t choose to quit midway.”

The middle-aged man said, “Moreover, you have to follow our instructions and arrangements in the tower.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning nodded.

This request was not unreasonable.

“Great, let’s sign a contract.”

The middle-aged man said, “Once the contract is completed, you will receive the first payment in the agreement. In the two months before the opening of the Arcanist Tower, you will have to stay in the Gao family’s compound and wait for further arrangements.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ning was very straightforward.

Afterwards, the middle-aged man personally signed a contract with Xu Ning and completed the process.

Xu Ning was assigned to a residence, and someone delivered the first payment.

Xu Ning did not waste any time. He directly absorbed the resources worth 5 million units of energy.

‘As expected of the City of Arcanists, it is much easier to obtain resources here than in the outside world.’

After absorbing the resources, Xu Ning sighed.

In order to gather the 3 million units of energy he needed to advance to rank seven, he had spent nearly two years.

But now, obtaining 5 million units of energy was so easy.

According to their previous agreement, Xu Ning was not allowed to leave the Gao family before the Arcanist Tower opened, so he just stayed in the independent courtyard.

Over the past two months, the Gao family gathered several members of the exploration team and explained the internal environment of the tower many times.

They wanted all the members of the exploration team to have a rough understanding of it.

Xu Ning also figured out the rough situation of the exploration team.

There were about 100 members in the Gao family’s exploration team.

The leader was a peak rank eight arcanist, a member of the Gao family.

In addition to him, there were four other rank eight arcanists, a total of five people.

There were twenty-five rank seven arcanists in total, half of them were recruited from the public like Xu Ning.

The other seventy people were all rank six arcanists.

A rank six arcanist could only play some basic duties in the tower.

At critical moments, it still depended on the performance of the rank eight and rank seven arcanists.

Two months went by.

Finally, it was time for the Arcanist Tower to open.

On this day, the Gao family’s exploration team was ready and began to head to the center of the city.

“Xu Ning, how do you feel?”

Beside Xu Ning was a bald young man.

The bald young man had a domineering aura and an excited look in his eyes.

His name was Gao Qixuan, and he was a rank seven arcanist of the Gao family. Over the past two months, he had become familiar with Xu Ning, and they had a pretty good relationship.

“I’m fine.”

Xu Ning was not excited or stressed. Entering the tower was like entering a mystic realm for him.

“This is the first time I am entering the tower. I’m looking forward to it.”

Gao Qixuan couldn’t wait any longer.
