As Xu Feng extended his hand out for a handshake, Carn rely glanced at it briefly before extending hers, comncing the handshake.
"Since you now beco a true mber, we'll need to et up in real life for further details." Xu Feng explained. "Where do you live so I can determine the etup location?"
He had never known or t her in real life, so it was truly a first for him.
Of course, Carn didn't think much of it as she understood they would need to et up for further details.
In a virtual reality ga, aside from the system contract that bound them, people would also construct a contract in the real world as well.
Therefore, two contracts are required to be signed and ensure protection for both parties in the real world and the virtual world. In addition, since they were going to discuss core secrets, it was best to et each other face-to-face.
"I'm living in Green Fla City, Guild Leader," Carn responded, not surprised that they needed to et up.
anwhile, Xu Feng was slightly in a daze upon hearing the city's na.
Green Fla City— the first-grade city that celebrated the success and his downfall.
His silence was quickly misunderstood and Carn took the initiative to say, "If it's inconvenient, then I don't mind going to you instead. I haven't had a vacation in a while, so I can fly to your city and enjoy the scenery."
Snapping out of his daze, Xu Feng mused, "Are you sure about that? I'm in Avalon City, a third-grade city only."
The world they lived in, or more specifically, the cities they lived in are graded independently.
The first-grade city was naturally the best of the best, with the worst city being the fifth-grade ones.
Thus, Avalon City could only be considered diocre or average at best.
Contrary to Xu Feng's belief that Carn might frown upon hearing the na.
Her eyes actually sparkled and she glanced at Xu Feng as if he was an alien.
"You reside in Avalon City, a third-grade rating?" Carn exclaid in shock. "This is a miracle. You managed to ss with the GRIM Corporation which had its headquarters located in a first-grade city and ca out on top despite being in a third-grade city. This is newsworthy!"
"..."
Xu Feng didn't know how or what to react based on her statent. It seed that she cared more about how a person residing in a third-grade city managed to topple the GRIM Corporation rather than his status.
Cities were graded, so naturally the people who get to live in better-graded cities are more capable than those inferior.
Take the Zhao Enterprise and GRIM Corporation to compare.
The Zhao Enterprise could be considered a big conglorate, but ultimately, its headquarters resided in Avalon City. Therefore, GRIM Corporation headquarters, which resided in Astral Nexus City, was superior.
Not only was the latter superior, but its wealth was also at another level. Even if Zhao Enterprise were to be multiplied ten tis, it still wouldn't be enough to topple GRIM Corporation.
"You really have guts, Guild Leader." Carn teased, giving him a thumbs up for his courage and capability. Although his actions didn't harm GRIM Corporation much, the truth remained that he had caused them quite a headache.
Additionally, it beca a surprise that the GRIM Corporation was actually willing to take a step back and compensate Xu Feng.
100 million dollars, regardless if one resided in a first-grade or third-grade city, such money was not easy to cough up.
Precisely because GRIM Corporation headquarters was in a first-grade city which should have been even more stingy with its funding, given the fierce competition within Astral Nexus City.
"Are you done teasing yet?" Unamused, Xu Feng held a deadpan expression and questioned if she was finished with laughing.
"My bad my bad," Carn apologized, but a few giggles still slipped past her mouth. "Anyway, since you're in Avalon City, it's better for
to go to you. After all, it's more tedious to apply to enter a first-grade city when you're in a lower-grade city."
Xu Feng nodded in agreent.
The world was just like that, full of unjust and discrimination.
Toward those who resided in a first-grade city, they were practically free to travel to any city to their liking.
However, those who resided in lower-grade cities would find trouble countless tis if they were to apply to travel to a higher-grade city. Incidents where the applicant would be rejected weren't uncommon either if their background, wealth, or information wasn't enough.
"So should I book a flight ticket now to et up with you?" Carn asked.
"You can book it if you want, but I doubt you want to log out now." Xu Feng mused.
"Why wouldn't I want to log out?" She raised an eyebrow, confused by his aning.
"We spent a lot of ti sparring, so the competition should start soon." He explained, reminding her of the ti.
"Eh, how could a lot of ti have passed already?" Skeptical, Carn opened the tir in her interface, only to have her mouth agape. "What the hell? How did the day go by already?"
She beca alard when her sense of ti was once again horrendously wrong. She had clearly rembered there were still 8-10 hours left before the day would be over, so how could she not realize so much ti had gone by?
Heck, that wasn't even the most important aspect. It was the fact that she didn't even feel ntally exhausted despite being very active, albeit only physically exhausted after sparring for so long.
"You were quite excited during the spar and constantly improved. I didn't find the heart to remind you to stop." Xu Feng explained. From a glance, he could tell Carn was improving and was in the zone, equivalent to the so-called enlightennt, but not quite.
"What are we still doing here then?" Carn rolled her eyes, grabbed his arms, and began rushing to return to Paradise Plains. "I ca here to watch the competition, so how could you be late for it?"
