Chapter 1146: Shocking Coming of Age Gift
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In other words, of the benefits gained by martial artists in the ruins, three-tenths must be given to Old Devil Yanagi! Otherwise, they couldn’t even enter the ruins.
So, the seventy-two giants in the South Pole all held a large amount of martial art resources in their hands. Each one was extremely wealthy!
Things that ordinary martial artists sought in vain were quite common here.
This was a paradise for martial artists.
A hell for ordinary people.
If ordinary people came here, there would be no way out.
The leader of the first team frowned on the side and asked, “Is this your first time here?”
Braydon Neal nodded lightly, not afraid of these people bullying him.
The team leader could only patiently ask, “Is it your first time entering the 14th ruin or your first time in the South Pole?”
“First time for both.”
Braydon explained the situation.
The team leader asked again, “Are you from Hansworth?”
Braydon nodded again.
The team leader became more enthusiastic, saying, “Aside from today, I haven’t seen any new martial artists from Hansworth for many years. My name is Kashton Zaleski. I used to serve in the royal guards in the capital. Later, I received a secret order and came here.”
“The thirty thousand royal guards in the capital were actually transferred here.”
Braydon thoughtfully.
Back then, when he was in the No. 8 Courtyard in the capital, he asked about the whereabouts of the thirty thousand royal guards.
However, he didn’t expect that the royal guards from that year was secretly transferred here.
Team leader Kashton was somewhat surprised, “Brother, what is your name, and do you know anyone in the royal guards?”
“The commander of the royal guards, Tatum Munoz, is an old subordinate of the teacher. He comes from the Northern Army.”
Braydon smiled faintly and walked toward the city gate.
Kashton and his team of eight were stunned.
When they came back to their senses.
Kashton exclaimed, “Are you...”
“My surname is Neal, and my given name is Braydon.”
Braydon did not turn around, continuing to move forward.
Kashton’s face turned pale, cold sweat poured out, and he immediately saluted and shouted, “Kashton Zaleski of the royal guards greets His Royal Highness!”
The commander of the royal guards, Tatum, was already a supreme pinnacle!
Braydon stopped and looked at him, smiling lightly. “Did the teacher pass on the Supreme Forbidden Art to you?”
“It was passed on to me ten years ago. Master said that the 14th ancient city needs someone at the supreme pinnacle realm to preside over the overall situation. The eight major forces followed Master and were unwilling to stay in the city for a long time.”
Tatum explained the reason.
As Braydon walked along the street, he saw that there were probably thousands of shops on the main street, selling various goods.
This was just one main street, and there were six other main streets.
These shops were all owned by Old Devil Yanagi!
Shops could also be sold, but they required a large number of spirit stones, so many forces would not buy them.
Because this city was dangerous.
Once the city was destroyed, people would die, and all the investment would turn into nothing.
Generally, no one bought any shops and would only rent them.
The rental fee for the shops in the 14th ancient city was astronomical.
In addition to these shops, each store needed to hand in twenty percent of its turnover every month.
At the same time, for external martial artists entering the 14th ruin, thirty percent of any gains obtained here must be handed over.
It was equivalent to taxation.
The one who formulated these rules was Old Devil Yanagi.
Because he was a giant and controlled the 14th ruin.
At the same time, such rules were not only present in the 14th ruin, but also existed in other ruin sites.
Tatum said in a low voice, “For martial artists in the 14th ancient city, we must provide protection for them. At the same time, private fights are strictly prohibited in the city. If there is a crisis in the ancient city, such as a powerful fierce beast attacking, we must fight until the last moment. We can only retreat when all martial artists have safely retreated.”
Braydon understood.
The daily protection and defense against dangers of this city were all their responsibility.
For external martial artists entering the ruins, thirty percent of all the gains obtained must be handed.
Tatum continued, “Now that the Young Master has arrived, Master has already instructed that this ancient city is fully handed over to you. Consider it as a belated coming-of-age gift.”
Braydon’s mouth twitched slightly.
This gift was undeniably significant.
Other people’s coming-of-age gifts were precious treasures or ornaments, but Braydon’s coming-of-age gift was a city!
A city that symbolized status and wealth!
Braydon shook his head lightly and said, “In the outside world, I am entangled in the worldly affairs, unable to escape from various trivial matters. Now that I have come to the South Pole and isolated from the world, I don’t want to get involved in too many things. I need time to cultivate. The operation of the 14th ancient city should still be handled by you.”
“Yes, sir!”
Tatum bowed and took the order.
