Chapter 166: The Perverse Black Death Demon King_3
They actually have a photo of the demon spirit, showing a silver lion. While not exactly huge, it's at least twice the size of a typical lion, with its silver mane complementing its hefty build. Coupled with the silver light patterns and gemstone glow on its body, it looks incredibly captivating.
"This has already been contracted and summoned, how is he going to sell it?" Li Xiu frowned after reading the information.
"This photo was taken earlier, and the previous owner is already dead. Now this Demon Spirit Ring is contract-free and can be contracted with anyone," Chu Jun explained.
"I don't think it's suitable." Li Xiu didn't fancy this S-Class Silver Light Lion, which only had a shining quality and two talent skills. Such a demon spirit, aside from having a higher level, was considered by Li Xiu to be quite worthless.
"Why? An S-Class demon spirit, how many resources would it take to bring it up to this level? Even if that Ruby Ball were exchanged for resources, it's questionable whether we could raise an S-Class demon spirit. This one is readily available, and it has a shining quality with dual skills. I think it's quite suitable," Chu Jun paused to catch his breath before continuing, "Besides, at the magic competition, having this S-Class Silver Light Lion to intimidate the crowd will surely shock the world."
"Only a shining quality, and it's awakened merely two talent skills. Such an S-Class demon spirit will eventually be phased out. We only have that one Ruby Ball, and it will be hard to find another one in the future; this matter isn't urgent." Li Xiu smiled and added, "As for the magic competition, don't worry. I've already prepared to use it as the ace up my sleeve."
With that, Li Xiu summoned the Black Death Demon King.
"Radiant Black Death Demon!" Chu Jun was astonished upon seeing the Black Death Demon King, his eyes almost bulging out, "How did you get so lucky? I've been to Black Death City so many times and never saw a Radiant Level Black Death Demon."
"Having good luck makes all the difference," Li Xiu chuckled, "I'm planning to have it as our main force in the magic competition. After all, the Black Death Demon is the hallmark of our City of Light; it should attract people here. Other demon spirits aren't quite suitable."
"What level is it now?" Chu Jun considered that Li Xiu had a point.
Indeed, only the Black Death Demon could truly represent the City of Light. Once the Black Death Demon's reputation is established, attracting visitors to the City of Light won't be a concern. More visitors mean the City of Light can really grow.
"C-Class," Li Xiu replied.
"C-Class seems a bit low; if someone comes to cause trouble, it might not be able to suppress them," Chu Jun pondered aloud.
"That's why I need a large amount of gems to nurture it now. The Ruby Ball must be exchanged for gemstones, not demon spirits," Li Xiu explained.
"There isn't much time until the magic competition; even if we convert it to gem resources now, is it enough?" Chu Jun expressed some concern.
Not all demon spirits can incessantly consume like the Jedi Knight; ordinary demon spirits require time to convert gemstone energy. Just like the Masked Emperor, it isn't that joining Topa allows immediate advancement.
Only the Jedi Knight infected by Evil Parasite and Demigod Shana can keep consuming resources nonstop, rapidly growing as long as they have resources.
"Before the competition, advancing to A-Class should be feasible, but B-Class might be a bit tight," Li Xiu thought out loud.
"What if an S-Class demon spirit appears? Like the Silver Light Lion," Chu Jun suggested.
"If the Black Death Demon King advances to A-Class, defeating a Silver Light Lion is just child's play. For B-Class, some maneuvering is required, but it's manageable," Li Xiu smiled.
"How many talent skills has the Black Death Demon King awakened? Look at you bragging," Chu Jun teased.
Li Xiu stretched out three fingers, waving them in front of Chu Jun.
"Are you serious? Isn't your Black Death Demon King only C-Class? Even if it awakens a talent skill each time it levels up, one from E to D, one from D to C, that's only two, so where's the third? You've lost your mind," Chu Jun retorted with a sneer.
"I'm serious. It's three; the Black Death Demon Light came with one talent skill at E-Class," Li Xiu grinned.
"Wow, there's such a thing? I've never heard of it," Chu Jun's eyes widened.
"Check out the skills of my Black Death Demon King," Li Xiu had the Black Death Demon King unleash its Black Death Legion skill.
As a series of radiant Black Death Demons appeared, Chu Jun was dumbfounded.
Now, Chu Jun finally understood why Li Xiu dismissed the Silver Light Lion. Who would buy a Silver Light Lion with such an incredible demon spirit available? Naturally, one would devote resources to upgrading the Black Death Demon instead.
Li Xiu explained the detailed information about the Black Death Legion skill to Chu Jun, and then shared his own predictions.
After listening, Chu Jun resolutely declared, "Even if we have to sell everything, we must elevate the level of the Black Death Demon King. For this magic competition, it will be the ace demon spirit of our City of Light."
Chu Jun contacted the buyers, firmly informing them that they only accepted money or gemstones, not demon spirits.
Li Qingyi frowned slightly upon receiving the reply.
She hadn't expected the other party to reject such a deal. An S-Class shining demon spirit with dual talent skills, if released, countless Trial Takers would spend fortunes to claim it.
The other party actually turned down the Silver Light Lion, indicating they only accepted money and gemstones, which was beyond Li Qingyi's expectations.
If Li Qingyi herself hadn't known the origins of that Ruby Ball and urgently needed it, she wouldn't have brought out the Silver Light Lion.
By offering the Silver Light Lion, she aimed to secure it, preventing the Ruby Ball from being snatched by others. Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be a peculiar one, preferring money over demon spirits, leaving her at a loss.
