Wen Xiangjie took the Flame Armor epic card from her small personal bag and placed it on the table.
Zhao Yongfeng's eyes instantly changed from surprise to wild joy and desire, and even his breathing became rapid.
“This is… Flame Armor!” Zhao Yongfeng couldn't help but pick up the Flame Armor Card that Wen Xiangjie had placed on the table, carefully bringing it close to him to observe, as if he were admiring a rare treasure.
However, this card was indeed a rare treasure for Zhao Yongfeng; it was the dream card he had yearned for, even after spending more than a year's worth of salary, but had never obtained.
After admiring the card for a full five minutes, Zhao Yongfeng reluctantly returned it to Wen Xiangjie, but his eyes remained glued to the Flame Armor Card, unwilling to look away.
“State your conditions,” Zhao Yongfeng said.
“As expected, the Arena Master is as straightforward as I imagined, so I won't beat around the bush either,” Wen Xiangjie said directly, “I want to use this card to exchange for a qualification to compete for an Arena Tournament spot.”
“I'm sure the Arena Master knows that our school's graduation exam has a chance to yield a legendary card, and the winner of the Arena Tournament also receives a legendary card. I really want to strive for both legendary cards.”
“Originally, out of admiration for the Peak Card Domain Arena, I planned to directly join the Peak Card Domain Arena to participate in the Arena Tournament. I never expected the card god to favor me, allowing me to open this Flame Armor Card from a card pack. I know that your signature battle card, Flame Furious Tiger, is extremely powerful. With just this Flame Armor Card, your Flame Furious Tiger will be like a tiger with wings, becoming completely invincible.”
“So, I want to try and exchange this card for a qualification with you. Don't worry, I know you are always fair. I don't need you to directly give me the Peak Card Domain Arena's Arena Tournament qualification. I just want a chance to compete for the qualification with the final victorious disciple from your arena.”
Wen Xiangjie's words left Zhao Yongfeng in a dilemma.
If Wen Xiangjie had hidden her true intentions from him, or if she had directly asked for the Arena Tournament qualification, he would have reluctantly rejected her request, even if she had presented the Flame Armor Card he so longed for. He would not have compromised his principles for it.
However, Wen Xiangjie was very sincere, and the conditions she proposed were not harsh, which made him hesitate.
Given Zhao Yongfeng's personality, not directly refusing meant there was a chance.
Wen Xiangjie struck while the iron was hot: “Arena Master, actually, I can join the Peak Card Domain Arena right now and become an arena apprentice. It's just that due to some special reasons, I can't train with the senior sisters and brothers of the arena. If you treat all arena apprentices equally, including me, and allow everyone the right to participate in the final competition, doesn't that precisely demonstrate your fairness?”
Zhao Yongfeng's thoughts were unknowingly led by Wen Xiangjie.
Yes! As long as Wen Xiangjie joined their Peak Card Domain Arena, wouldn't she be their arena apprentice!
Allowing Wen Xiangjie to participate in the final Arena Tournament qualification competition was perfectly reasonable!
“You make a good point. As the Arena Master, I should indeed be fair and just,” Zhao Yongfeng said, furrowing his brow.
Seeing that Zhao Yongfeng had been completely swayed, Wen Xiangjie directly took out the arena disciple application form that Zhao Yongfeng had given her earlier and signed her name.
She placed the Flame Armor Card on top of the arena disciple application form and pushed both across the table to Zhao Yongfeng.
“Arena Master, as your apprentice, I'll need your guidance in the future. Will I have the opportunity to witness the full power of the complete Flame Furious Tiger?”
Zhao Yongfeng's gaze was fixed on the Flame Armor Card pushed in front of him, and he couldn't bring himself to say no.
He swallowed, cleared his throat, and relaxed his somewhat hoarse voice: “No problem. From now on, you are a disciple of our Peak Card Domain Arena. Remember not to miss the qualification match time.”
After saying this, Zhao Yongfeng felt a sense of relief and immediately picked up his dream card, unable to look at it enough.
If he hadn't remembered Wen Xiangjie was still there, he would have pouted and kissed it passionately.
“Okay, thank you, Arena Master. I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving now.” Just as Wen Xiangjie was about to get up, Zhao Yongfeng suddenly said, “Wait a moment.”
He took out his money card and transferred 1,000,000 to Wen Xiangjie directly.
“Just got my salary this month, haven't had time to… *cough*, I can't take advantage of you for free. The epic card's recycling price is 1,000,000, and I've already transferred it to you.”
“Received, thank you, boss~” Wen Xiangjie said with a smile.
Seeing that Wen Xiangjie did not refuse, Zhao Yongfeng's expression became even more relaxed.
【Zhao Yongfeng: Favorability 70 (Excellent Disciple).】
Leaving the Arena Master's lounge, Wen Xiangjie went to the arena's combat zone and saw a familiar figure following Cheng Di.
“Wen Xiangjie!” Upon seeing Wen Xiangjie, Wei Zicheng's expression immediately became even more excited.
After receiving news from Ji Chenyu that Wen Xiangjie had joined the Peak Card Domain Arena, Wei Zicheng immediately followed, and after getting confirmation from Cheng Di that Wen Xiangjie had indeed joined the arena, Wei Zicheng unhesitatingly declared that he also wanted to join the arena.
Because Wen Xiangjie was in Zhao Yongfeng's lounge, Cheng Di asked Wei Zicheng to wait a moment.
“Should I call you junior sister from now on?” Cheng Di asked with a smile.
“Senior brother, please take care of me in the future,” Wen Xiangjie said gracefully, “I'm going back to school now.”
“Alright, go ahead.” Cheng Di nodded to Wen Xiangjie, then turned his head to Wei Zicheng and said, “Let's go, I'll take you to the Arena Master's lounge.”
“Wen Xiangjie, I'm also joining the Peak Card Domain Arena! Finally, I can face you directly, are you ready!” Wei Zicheng said excitedly.
“Did Ji Chenyu give you the news?” Wen Xiangjie suddenly asked.
“Ah, how did you know?” Wei Zicheng subconsciously replied.
Hmm, among the new students participating in the dungeon, Wei Zicheng was indeed one of the easier ones to trick. No wonder Ji Chenyu chose to put Wei Zicheng up against her.
However, although Wei Zicheng was relatively easy to trick, this ranking competition was about resource allocation, so he shouldn't be so impulsive and brainless.
It seems Ji Chenyu's talent has some merit.
“It's nothing, go have fun.” Wen Xiangjie waved to Wei Zicheng and left.
Wei Zicheng: ???
It's happening again. Every time he faces Wen Xiangjie, he feels a suffocating sense of powerlessness, but he doesn't know where the frustration comes from. What's going on?
With the 1,000,000 given by Zhao Yongfeng, Wen Xiangjie could continue buying card packs and opening cards.
However, her current luck value was still a bit low and needed more time to accumulate.
