Five thousand points could solve Gao Xuan's urgent crisis. For this, he was even willing to offer himself to the Xiao Ting sisters.

As for why Xiao Ting set the price at five thousand points, it was obvious; five thousand points could promote him to a Level 5 Member.

For members of the Sword Dao Association, membership levels are extremely important.

If Gao Xuan could become a Level 5 Member, he'd have more power and greater freedom.

For an outsider like Gao Xuan, the benefits of upgrading membership levels are most direct. Moreover, Gao Xuan just killed Xiao Hanshan. Even with Xiao Wan's backing, he needed a higher level to protect himself.

Gao Xuan had detailed discussions with Xiao Ting about the Sword Assembly and reached a basic agreement.

However, he hadn't fully agreed yet. He still needed to discuss this matter with Xiao Wan.

After all, Xiao Wan was his guide. It would be too unscrupulous to join the association and start cooperating with Xiao Ting behind Xiao Wan's back.

Every organization is the same; traitors and fence-sitters are the most despised.

When Xiao Wan on the light screen finished listening to Gao Xuan, her face changed dramatically. Then, the light screen was turned off.

Gao Xuan felt a bit awkward, the situation seemed to be not so good. He thought Xiao Wan and the other party only had minor conflicts; now this reaction was too intense.

In less than twenty minutes, the door was pounded heavily.

Gao Xuan hurried to open the door, as his armored door worth hundreds of thousands couldn't withstand the pounding of a Silver Sword Hero.

"Sister Wan, I was just waiting for you."

Xiao Wan glared at Gao Xuan with a face ashen, as if looking at the enemy who killed her father.

Gao Xuan realized things were bad and quickly grabbed Xiao Wan's hand, pulling her into the room, "Sister Wan, don't be angry. I just reported to you and did not secretly contact that pretentious woman."

He expressed his loyalty, "I'm not a fickle man. I've always been the most loyal and dedicated, capable of enduring any test, and will never betray Sister Wan..."

Xiao Wan kept a stern face, really infuriated. She had just warned him not to associate with Xiao Ting, and Gao Xuan turned around and hooked up with her.

This made her feel that Gao Xuan had betrayed her!

Xiao Wan felt wronged too. She treated Gao Xuan so well, yet he still wanted to betray her. How could this person be like this!

Gao Xuan felt a bit helpless. He thought Xiao Wan was quite mature, who knew she'd act like this, not much different from a child.

Reasoning clearly wouldn't work, so Gao Xuan said, "I was wrong in handling this. How about this, I'm willing to serve Sister Wan to atone for my sins."

"Get lost."

Xiao Wan's face finally broke into a scowl, and she scolded Gao Xuan.

However, Gao Xuan knew it was all right now. He grinned and said, "Sister Wan, you wait for me on the bed, I'll go wash up first."

Xiao Wan's face flushed a little, and she tried hard to put on a serious look, "Don't jest around. I'm talking seriously."

"As Sister Wan pleases, any posture you like..."

"Stop it!"

Gao Xuan put on a serious face, "I'm not saying anymore. Sister Wan, you speak."

Seeing Gao Xuan's serious look, Xiao Wan felt a bit disappointed, adjusted her mood and said earnestly, "The Sword Assembly on Purple Dragon Star is called the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly, with contestants sent by major noble families and organizations. The winner gets the right to explore the Blood Dragon Cave for three years.

"According to Purple Dragon Star's people, it's a sacrificial event to the Underground Divine Dragon. Therefore, the competition is extremely brutal, with all participants trying every way to kill their opponents. Of hundreds of participants, less than one in a hundred survives."

Xiao Wan said, "The Blood Dragon Sword Assembly is the most brutal sword competition in the Twelve Star Domain. Xiao Ting asking you to participate in the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly certainly has no good intentions. You won't survive to earn her five thousand points."

Gao Xuan asked in confusion, "If it's so brutal, the elites of Purple Dragon Star would have long been wiped out."

"Purple Dragon Star has a very unique environment, where people have short lifespans but grow very quickly. Many achieve Level 10 at a young age. But after leaving Purple Dragon Star, their power quickly fades, and their bodies soon crumble..."

Xiao Wan said, "Many suspect an alien god or some powerful intelligent life on Purple Dragon Star. In any case, Purple Dragon Star isn't normal. Even a Silver Sword Hero's sword intent would be suppressed there. It can only accommodate the power of a Tenth-level Swordsman."

The Alliance has occupied Purple Dragon Star for thousands of years without understanding it.

Purple Dragon Star is an important resource star, with various rare metal mines, including exotic crystal stone mines, and so on.

The Blood Dragon Cave itself is magical, with valuable marvels that can be excavated inside. Moreover, it's a Holy Land for cultivation.

Cultivating inside for one day equals ten days outside.

The various peculiarities of the Blood Dragon Cave also make it a coveted place.

Moreover, occupying the Blood Dragon Cave is the best demonstration of strength.

The Blood Dragon Sword Assembly is essentially a test of force. All major organizations and noble families will send participants as long as they have the strength.

If they have strength but don't participate, they'll be seen as cowards.

Once labeled as cowards, it'll be difficult for the family to establish themselves on Purple Dragon Star.

Due to the unique environment of Purple Dragon Star, the people there are unusually aggressive and ruthless.

Over thousands of years, Purple Dragon Star has come to worship power and violence, forming its own unique culture, greatly different from other planetary cultures in the Twelve Star Domain.

In the Twelve Star Domain, Purple Dragon Star is synonymous with barbarism, brutality, and belligerence.

Xiao Wan served on Purple Dragon Star for a year and had a profound understanding of its special culture. She happened to witness a Blood Dragon Sword Assembly. The brutal and bloody nature of the Assembly left an indelible impression on her.

Thus, hearing that Gao Xuan wanted to participate in the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly made her truly angry.

Gao Xuan nodded. Xiao Ting had also introduced the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly's situation to him, only without the brutality and bloodshed Xiao Wan described.

This was understandable; Xiao Ting didn't want to scare him.

Gao Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Sister Wan, I still want to try."

Before Xiao Wan could get angry, Gao Xuan added, "Within a Level 10 context, I have no opponents."

His tone was calm and serene, but this simple statement carried an undeniable, powerful self-confidence.

Xiao Wan wanted to say something, but she was overwhelmed by Gao Xuan's aura.

"In that case, why not take Xiao Ting's five thousand points."

Gao Xuan said, "Sister Wan, taking this step could save me a few years, and save you a few years too."

"But the risk is equally high!" Xiao Wan still disapproved.

"In my strongest field, if I still lose, then I have nothing to say."

Gao Xuan said, "In life, how many good opportunities are there?"

He smiled and said, "Sister Wan, forgive my bluntness. You come from a Noble Family, you can have countless opportunities, you can choose freely. For me, this Sword Assembly is a very good opportunity."

Xiao Wan was silent, Gao Xuan was right. She had enough choices, allowing her to choose leisurely.

Gao Xuan, however, did not have that many choices.

Even if she wanted to help, she couldn't come up with 5000 points. Moreover, she couldn't possibly give Gao Xuan 5000 points for no reason.

Xiao Wan thought for a while and said, "I'll go with you."

"Hahaha, that couldn't be better."

Gao Xuan said, "With Sister Wan here, Xiao Ting wouldn't dare to play tricks."

He discussed with Xiao Wan, "How about this, you have Xiao Ting give me the 5000 points first. I will definitely get her a championship."

"You want me to be the guarantor?" Xiao Wan was stunned. This content originates from *, *.

"When I become a Level 5 Member, I can select Marvels. With the right Marvels, I can enhance Power. By enhancing Power, I can better complete tasks and better help Sister Wan..."

Gao Xuan asked, "Isn't this logic reasonable?"

Xiao Wan was a bit dazed, nodded: "Sounds quite reasonable."

"Then it's settled."

Gao Xuan held Xiao Wan's hand and said, "Sister Wan, I entrust this matter to you."

Xiao Wan was a bit dazed as she left Gao Xuan's house, only when she was back at her own home, did she realize something was off!

She went to stop Gao Xuan from attending the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly, how come she ended up being Gao Xuan's guarantor!

She was a bit confused, what exactly happened at Gao Xuan's house, how much Enchanting Soup did she drink, to be fooled like this...

Xiao Wan regretted a bit, she shouldn't have agreed to Gao Xuan. But she couldn't bring herself to go back on her words.

No choice, Xiao Wan could only contact Xiao Ting, and told her what happened.

Xiao Ting was also very surprised, after Xiao Wan finished speaking, she even laughed.

This made Xiao Wan a bit annoyed: "What's so funny, don't you trust me?"

"No, I just think you've been completely charmed by this young man."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"What, you don't like Gao Xuan, that's great, I like him. Give him to me." Xiao Ting said with a smile.

"Don't joke around, Gao Xuan is under me, stop thinking about him."

Xiao Wan said, "If you're sincere about this, then quickly transfer the 5000 points to me."

"Alright, with you as a guarantee, what am I afraid of?"

Xiao Ting really trusted Xiao Wan, although they didn't sign any contract, their words were recorded, and the transfer of points was also recorded. She wasn't afraid of Xiao Wan playing any tricks.

That afternoon, Gao Xuan received a notice that his membership level had been upgraded to Level 5.

Obviously, Xiao Wan had transferred 5000 points directly to his name and helped him upgrade his membership level.

Gao Xuan didn't waste time, logged back into the Sword Dao Association's virtual reality, and entered the archive.

This time, he finally had the qualification to inquire about the Xiao Clan's Marvels' information.

Gao Xuan also knew, checking the Xiao Clan's Marvels in such a hurry would surely arouse a lot of suspicion.

But others didn't know what he wanted; suspicion was useless.

Gao Xuan first browsed the list of Marvels, then followed the Gold all the way down, roughly scanning through.

Finally, he opened the list of tierless Marvels.

The Marvels here weren't without tier, just that their level couldn't be determined. Nor could their specific abilities be determined. These Marvels were categorically grouped together.

Gao Xuan opened the list of Marvels and immediately saw a Marvel marked: Strange Golden Cicada.

Gao Xuan didn't rush to look, he sequentially browsed these Marvels, when he turned to the page of the Strange Golden Cicada, he didn't stay long.

However, this Marvel named Strange Golden Cicada is indeed the Undying Golden Cicada.

Xiao Clan's note on this object was: Metallic Golden Cicada, level unknown, function unknown. Negative effect unknown. 5000 points.

Seeing the 5000 points, Gao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, he could afford this thing.

The Undying Golden Cicada was too important for his evolution, he must acquire it as soon as possible. Delay would bring changes.

As for whether it would arouse suspicion, it was comparatively unimportant.

The Xiao Swordsmanship Association abided by rules the most. If he followed the rules, even if others suspected, they couldn't do anything to him.

Gao Xuan was just thinking when he noticed Xiao Changsheng arriving.

Xiao Changsheng walked to Gao Xuan with two followers, and calmly said, "I need to use this file."

Gao Xuan closed the file and got up to leave.

One of Xiao Changsheng's followers blocked Gao Xuan, "Seeing a superior and not saluting, are you blind?"

Gao Xuan casually pushed the follower aside, "Idiot, I'm indeed blind."

Gao Xuan swaggered away, the follower's face turned extremely embarrassed. He wanted to teach Gao Xuan a lesson but was rendered speechless by Gao Xuan's insults.

Xiao Changsheng sighed to himself, this subordinate was too incompetent. Outwardly, he had to act nonchalant to comfort his follower, "Don't bother with a blind man."

He pressed his hand on the Marvels' file, curiously saying, "What is Gao Xuan checking this for?"

His two subordinates looked bewildered, one tried saying, "Is Gao Xuan planning to purchase Marvels?"

Xiao Changsheng couldn't help wanting to sigh, wasn't that obvious? On the surface, he still nodded in agreement, "Exactly. I heard Gao Xuan just received 5000 points from Xiao Ting and hurriedly upgraded to a Level 5 Member. I recall Level 5 Members can buy tierless Marvels, right..."

As he spoke, he flipped through the catalog of tierless Marvels, "I'm very curious, which one does he want to buy?"
