3306 Chaoyang Tower

The Old Master, already familiar with his granddaughter's ways, smiled at her question. "The rewards are naturally quite generous. The top three winners will be able to claim a spirit tool or higher-grade artifact from Chaoyang Tower."

"And they will receive 1 million, 500,000, and 100,000 spirit coins respectively."

He glanced at his granddaughter's face, thinking to himself: She probably won't care much for the spirit coin reward.

No expression could be seen on the little poker face...

"Beyond that, you can also choose a spirit beast you like from the Spirit Beast Garden, and a spirit beast master will tame it for you, so it can accompany you on your future training."

"But," the Old Master coughed, looking a bit awkward, "that Chaoyang Tower, cough, cough, isn't somewhere just anyone can enter."

"It depends on the Old Ancestor's wishes. If the Old Ancestor doesn't let you in, cough, even if you come in first, you still won't be able to enter."

What did that mean? The reward for first place might turn into a cooked duck that flies away?

The little one's face immediately tightened.

Seeing her expression, the Old Master instinctively twitched his lips and quickly added, "But don't worry, even if you can't enter Chaoyang Tower, it's alright. The family will then consider providing alternative compensation."

It wasn't that the little girl absolutely needed the rewards from Chaoyang Tower. She had recently amassed many spirit tools; even breaking a few every day was enough for her.

However, what was rightfully hers should be hers!

How could they promise something and then not deliver? Wasn't that the behavior of a big liar?!

"What kind of place is Chaoyang Tower?"

"Oh, that's a treasure vault set up by Ancestor Chaoyang," a round-faced young man quickly interjected. "Only one-thousandth of the family members can enter to choose treasures. Most are directly bounced out at the entrance, not even getting a chance to go in."

The young man's name was Mu Wuzi. He was the fifth uncle's illegitimate child. Qiao Mu usually wasn't very close to the Mu family members; she might not even recognize all the direct descendants of the family, let alone the illegitimate ones.

Hearing this, Qiao Mu simply nodded and turned to the Old Master. "When's the competition?"

"Four days from now, on the day of Grandpa's birthday," Old Master Mu stroked his beard and smiled. "It's just for the family's children to compete and add some excitement for me. Just stop before causing serious harm, just stop before causing serious harm."

Qiao Mu nodded her small head. "Besides that, is there no other way to visit Chaoyang Tower?"

The Old Master paused, then smiled and nodded. "Chaoyang Tower only opens for one month after my birthday banquet. Indeed, this is the only way to get a chance to visit."

"Cough, the Old Ancestor doesn't like crowds. If the number of people entering exceeds three, and their strength is below the Spirit Realm, they will be repelled."

"A few years ago, there could still be thirty to fifty people entering Chaoyang Tower to choose treasures each year. Although not many found suitable treasures, at least they got to visit."

"But with recent years... cough, the Old Ancestor's temper has been worsening. Since the year before last, only three people have been allowed in."

"These three must be the most outstanding individuals in the family."

"And those who have entered once and chosen a spiritual artifact won't have another chance to enter."

The little one pouted, thinking that this Ancestor had quite a temper, with many annoying habits and rules.

If that's the case, then this esteemed person will go and meet you!

Qiao Mu nodded her small head. "I'll compete!"
