At this ti of day, Origin Mall usually had only a handful of custors.
But now?
Eight people were fully engaged in combat, using virtual devices—while three others stood by as spectators!
When Jiang Shengjun saw who was battling in the Tower of Trials, he couldn't help but gasp in shock.
Aren't these all the strongest figures in Origin Mall?
Even though three of them were unfamiliar to him, their presence alone suggested they were no ordinary cultivators.

Jiang Shengjun lightly approached the counter, lowering his voice as he leaned in.
"Sister Ziyan, what are they doing?"
"Arena competition," Yao Ziyan replied casually.
"Competition?" Jiang Shengjun was puzzled.
"Today is the day Jade Nectar Dew replenishes" Yao Ziyan continued.
Jiang Shengjun was montarily confused. Then, his eyes widened in realization.
He had never really cared about the arrival of Jade Nectar Dew, mainly because—
1. He didn't need it. As a young man, he had no issues with declining vitality.
2. Even as the son of the Pri Minister, 100,000 spirit crystals was an absurd price—even selling himself wouldn't be enough!
His gaze shifted to the battle.
"Wait... are they all here for the Jade Nectar Dew?" he asked, pointing toward the fighters.
"That's right," Yao Ziyan confird with a slight nod.
"But there's only one bottle—how are they going to split it?" Jiang Shengjun asked.
Yao Ziyan rely gestured toward the group with a slight tilt of her delicate chin.
Jiang Shengjun: "..."
He coughed lightly. "Sister Ziyan, I an, how are they deciding the winner? Are they using an elimination system? But that would be unfair..."
As he spoke, he stroked his chin thoughtfully.
Jiang Shengjun was known as a strategic genius among the younger generation of Nine Stars City.
Yet, even after ntally running through several competition formats, he couldn't co up with a truly fair solution.
After all, even if one final winner was determined, so competitors might not accept the result.
Inside the store, no one would challenge the authority of Origin Mall. But outside? That was another story.
Seeing his deeply contemplative expression, Yao Ziyan couldn't help but feel amused.
At the sa ti, her admiration for Luo Chuan grew even deeper.
"They're using the points system the boss proposed," she said.
Jiang Shengjun snapped back to attention.
"Points system?" he repeated. The term was completely unfamiliar to him.
"Sister Ziyan, what exactly is this points system?" he asked curiously.
Yao Ziyan smiled and explained the rules, repeating what Luo Chuan had said earlier.
As Jiang Shengjun listened, his eyes gradually lit up.
"There's such a thod? This is genius! How does the boss co up with this stuff...?"
Yao Ziyan felt a quiet joy at his reaction.
This was just how Luo Chuan was—always able to co up with sothing unexpected.
Her gaze briefly flickered toward Luo Chuan, who remained seated at the entrance.
Seeing that he hadn't noticed, she let out a small sigh of relief.
After his initial shock and admiration, Jiang Shengjun walked over to where Wei Yi and his companions were standing.
By now, they were all familiar with Jiang Shengjun, as he had beco a regular presence around the store.
