I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 698 - 58: Life Span Boxing Ring

Feng Xiaozao’s choice surprised Han Zhan a bit."A bar is not a particularly safe place," the Guardian next to them glanced at Han Zhan, then at Feng Xiaozao, and reminded.

"But the pay for bar attendants is very high, plus tips. If you meet some big shots, their rewards can equal a month’s salary."

Feng Xiaozao thought for a long time in the car, eventually throwing away those unrealistic ideas.

Instead of hoping for the improbable pity and handouts from others, it’s better to rely on oneself for everything.

This is Feng Xiaozao’s character, and it’s the reason why she’s determined to make this decision.

Seeing Feng Xiaozao’s resoluteness, Han Zhan and Shang Jianyue said no more.

They weren’t overly kind people who let emotions run wild; they respected other’s choices.

After the three of them finished selecting their respective toolman professions, the person in charge quickly sorted out the information for their Identity Cards.

With the Identity Cards, they were no longer undocumented in Pure Beauty Paradise and could live and consume normally.

"Once the life currency is fully input and accounted for, it will also be loaded onto this Identity Card."

"Are you setting off now, or do you want to rest here for a while?"

Faced with the Guardian’s kindness, Han Zhan shook his head.

He turned around, looking at Feng Xiaozao and Shang Jianyue.

"Then let’s part ways here."

"I hope when we meet again, everyone will have gained something."

Shang Jianyue nodded, understanding that Han Zhan meant to split up and act separately.

Their time was limited; finding clues about the Land of the End as quickly as possible and gaining an advantage before its final appearance was imperative.

Feng Xiaozao bowed deeply to Han Zhan, "Thank you for your help. Without your appearance, my situation would only be worse now."

"The previously agreed fifty years of life, you don’t need to pay. I am not someone who is inconsiderate and unsatisfiable."

"Until we meet again."

After Feng Xiaozao finished speaking, she straightened up and briskly walked away into the distance.

Watching her figure go further, Shang Jianyue nudged Han Zhan with an elbow.

"Hey, she’s walking away, and the cooked duck is about to fly away. Aren’t you going after her?"

"Divine Gold." In response to Shang Jianyue’s obviously ill-intentioned teasing, Han Zhan remained unmoved.

Shang Jianyue shrugged helplessly, silently shutting off the camera in recording mode.

"Then I’m off too, keep in touch."

"Keep in touch."

The boxing ring and the gaming arena were in two different directions, and since the places they would work were different, they parted ways here.

The Guardian, silently watching all this unfold, dialed a number.

"I’m looking for Lord Guan Congming."

"Yes, everything has been properly arranged for them."

"The two lords chose the boxing ring and gaming arena respectively, and that girl who just turned eighteen chose the bar."

"..."

After a moment of silence on the other end of the line, Guan Congming suddenly increased his volume and cursed a few times.

The Guardian’s face was full of grievances.

It’s just a situation where the young couple might be arguing, and the young girl just entering society wants to pursue economic independence. What could I do?!

That’s what he was thinking, but he still replied, "My lord, don’t worry. I will remind the bar management again to ensure she won’t be mistreated."

"Do you also need me to make a call to remind the other two lords?"

"However, the boxing ring and gaming arena are not areas under your jurisdiction, so finding someone might be a bit difficult."

Guan Congming on the other side of the phone paused slightly upon hearing this.

"Don’t worry about this matter for now."

"I will communicate with the management over there."

"Okay, I have something to attend to now."

With that said, Guan Congming ended the call.

...

Pure Beauty Paradise, Life Span Boxing Ring.

This is a landmark building of Pure Beauty Paradise.

As one of the most popular areas in Pure Beauty Paradise, the Life Span Boxing Ring has its unique charm.

In the distance, two enormous gloves collided with each other, surrounded by beams of light like searchlights shining on them.

Directly below the glove models was an equally gigantic electronic billboard with today’s match information scrolling across it.

Luo Qiuhong of Sword Hero Star vs. Weng Lu of Earthquake Star.

Below were large posters of both combatants.

Luo Qiuhong was a humanoid with a long sword, whereas Weng Lu was entirely a spherical form, undoubtedly an Alien Species.

At the very bottom were lines of small text, presumably the bets and odds for each side.

Betting was also done in life currency, not much different from the underground boxing ring process Han Zhan knew.

"Hey, new here?"

"Why stand there dazed, hurry over and help clean up!"

While Han Zhan was observing, someone shouted at him.

Looking up, a young man in an orange work uniform approached him.

"I’m talking to you."

"Level 1 Venue Assistant, Han Zhan, is that correct?"

Han Zhan nodded, showing his Identity Card.

The Identity Card was swiped on the device in the young man’s hand, emitting a "beep" sound.

Verification complete.

Before Han Zhan could say anything, the person briskly stepped up and patted his shoulder.

"No need for small talk, just follow me. Before the fight starts tonight, we must clean up the venue."

"This is your main task as a Level 1 Venue Assistant. Come on, let’s get familiar with things!"

With that said, he tossed over a set of deep blue work uniforms.

The style of the uniform was the same as the one he was wearing, only the color was different.

The different colors likely symbolized different levels.

The Level 1 Venue Assistant’s uniform was deep blue, while the orange uniform represented a higher level, the team leader, Level 2 Venue Assistant.

After a brief conversation, Han Zhan learned the man’s name was Luo Heng.

An unfortunate coincidence, Luo Heng shared the same surname as Luo Qiuhong, the person from Sword Hero Star seen on the billboard.

Unfortunately, Luo Heng, being a native Pure Beauty Star person, probably had no relation to the other.

With Luo Heng leading to the work site, Han Zhan smelled a strong scent of blood filling the air.

There was also a massive corpse lying on the ground, distorted and mutated tentacles scattered all over—at first glance, numbering in the hundreds.

Before Han Zhan could take in more, Luo Heng tossed a filtered air-purifying mask over, which he instinctively caught.

Besides him and Luo Heng, other Venue Assistants were also diligently cleaning up the corpse, none wearing a purification mask.

This purification mask was likely something Luo Heng, as a Level 2 Venue Assistant, was entitled to have.

Surprisingly, he directly handed it over to me.

"Take it, don’t just stand there foolishly. Whatever Talent or Ability you have, quickly display it."

"Here, we’re all part of a team. You, as a rookie, need to adapt quickly and not hold everyone back."

While speaking, Luo Heng clasped his hands together in a spell.

An invisible telekinetic force appeared above him, transforming into a transparent, invisible Giant, slowly lifting the tentacle-covered alien creature.

The other team members skillfully swung their knives, starting to sever each of the tentacles.
