THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 452 Shift In Balance

In fact, they enjoyed his humiliation. Paine belongs to a pavilion that has occupied one of the entry slots for the underground dungeon. He has nothing to lose other than losing face.

And the reason why they enjoyed Paine's humiliation is very simple. Heavenly G.o.d Pavilion is one of the five pavilions that has secured the entrance slot for the underground dungeon. But they couldn't. Even though their pavilion was counted as one of the top cla.s.s pavilion along with Heavenly G.o.d Pavilion, there could only be six winners for the struggle for the Underground Dungeon.

Heavenly G.o.d Pavilion has won one entrance slot. While they didn't manage to get one. We all fought for the same thing. But you won while we lost. In this kind of scenario, the loser will form a sense of jealousy towards the winner. This jealousy will transform into hatred. Even though they had hatred for other pavilion, that was in the sense of compet.i.tion.

In the compet.i.tion for the development of their pavilions, if they received equal benefits, then that's fine. But if this balance was broken, then the winner would receive nothing but hatred from the loser.

Today a member of the winner pavilion has lost his face very badly. Why would a loser take that person's side? So they didn't care about Paine. In fact, they thought that Paine deserves it.

But they soon came back to the reality. Right now it wasn't the time for bothering about Paine. Lansha won an entry slot. While they didn't. They didn't know what to do. So after thinking for a moment, they decided to inform the course of events that took place and receive the elder's guidance.

But it looks like they inherited the quality of arrogance from these elders. These elders' reply to their complaints were even more arrogant.

"I don't know how exactly you people managed to enter our mighty pavilion? Don't look for the excuses!"

"Bunch of b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! Can't even handle a small and easy task? Who recruited you idiots in our pavilion?"

"All I want is to break the formation of that gra.s.s root pavilion. It's because of you people that our pavilion is losing it's past glory. No wonder why you youngsters couldn't secure an entrance spot!"

"It's the formation of a pavilion that was established not more than 15 days ago. Yet you people are having trouble with a mere protective formation? You people are stain to our pavilion!"

"In our younger days, we fulfilled all our duties without any failure or lame excuses. We took our pavilion to it's glory. But you youngsters are searching for the lame excuses for a newly established pavilion. The quality of the youngsters is falling down with each generation."

All kind of replays were thrown on these poor people. Some elders asked not to look for any excuses. Some said that they can't even handle such a simple task. Some elders said that because of these youngsters their pavilion is losing it's former glory. Some elders said that because of these silly excuses they are like a stain to their pavilion. Some people even started to boast by saying how in their younger days they worked hard to take their pavilion where it is now. And the quality of the youngsters is falling down with each pa.s.sing generations.

After hearing these replies, those poor people wanted to cry very badly. They discovered that asking for the elders' help was definitely a worst mistake. They should have not asked for these old b.a.s.t.a.r.ds help.

They simply didn't know what exactly they were supposed to do now. At this moment except being depressed, they don't know what to do.

.....

"Young miss! Why would you agree to their term of 10 Spirit Stones?" , One of the formation master asked, "It's too much of the cost."

"Then you have any better idea?" , Lansha asked, "If you have, then please tell me."

That formation master was silent. He didn't have any better idea. He said, "At least, you can negotiate the price, right?"

Lansha said, "We should cherish the chance that we received. I heard that in the Underground Dungeon, there exist not only the Peace Seeking Mine. In fact, the Peace Seeking Mine was present just in the first layer. Those five pavilions are a.n.a.lysing that there is a possibility that there exist even more abundant resources in the other layer. If these five pavilions got their hands on these resources, then they will definitely become a huge powerhouse that not even we can surpa.s.s. What's the point in negotiations. In fact, I think this price is truly worth. If we start negotiating the price, then we might anger them. And it might lead to the end of our business deal. I don't want to take such an huge risk."

Both the formation masters fell silent once again. They knew that what Lansha said was true. There is an high possibility that there exist another extraordinary resources beside the Peace Seeking mine. If these five pavilions really monopolised these abundunt and tempting resources, then it won't be long before the balance of these big pavilions change. The entire power system will definitely shift to these five pavilions. It will lead to the war of attrition. These five pavilions will drop the price of their products. With the profit they make from the Underground Dungeon, droping the price of other common products won't hurt them that much.

But it will definitely hurt the Pavilions who failed to manage in winning the slots. Because they can't enjoy the resources of Underground Dungeon, they will not have other source of income. The power of monopoly will go completely in the hands of these five pavilions. They will become a super power that is very tough to catch up. They will be completely suppressed. In fact, their pavilions will start to decline. From major power they will decline to the ordinary power.

When they thought up to this far, those two formation masters felt that their heart shiver a little. Just imagining the consequences itself made their heart fall in deep nervous. If their imagination turned into reality, then they don't know what kind of horrible situation they will be in. They certainly don't want to take this huge risk.

Their status as a major powerhouse was in a huge risk. Compared to that, what exactly the sum of 20000 Spirit Stone amount to?
