Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 620: Chapter 262: Garrison Candidates, Martial Arts Enthusiasm, and the Eve of a Breakthrough Tide (Part 2)

He paused for a moment, then continued, “Defense Envoy, ultimately it’s about acquiring resources for Great Xia, so let’s set a one-month period. Among you nine, the three who obtain the most Contribution Value can serve as the Defense Envoy for these three outposts.”

Acquiring Contribution Value essentially means submitting various resources to the camp.

This is inherently a way to compare abilities, and none of the nine had any objections.

Chen Yingyuan and Peng Bo, who had not yet created a Hunting Team, also nodded, already calculating in their minds that they needed to quickly form their own Hunting Team.

Xia Hong waved for Yuan Cheng to retreat inside, and continued, “Now, I’ll tell you about the second matter, which is next month’s Martial Arts event. The group at Cold Resistance Level will be personally handled by me, so today I’m telling you Cold Resistance Levels in the camp in advance. Qiu Peng, after listening, personally make a trip to Wuyuan, Mirror Valley, and Longyou to notify Xia Chuan, Yue Feng, Xu Ning, and the others.”

“Yes, sir!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression slightly brightened, and they looked up at Xia Hong.

Qiu Peng had just mentioned in the plaza below that even he was envious of the rewards for this Martial Arts event, which had already piqued everyone’s curiosity immensely.

Xia Hong smiled, first taking out a small red porcelain bottle from his bosom, then poured out thirteen pills from within and tossed them towards everyone.

As soon as the porcelain bottle was opened, the thirteen people who smelled the unique fragrance of the pills suddenly froze in their expressions.

When they reached out to accurately catch the pills and looked down at the Spirit Pill in their hands, its surface like fiery red magma, they felt a strong craving from the blood and flesh within their bodies, causing their breathing to become a bit heavier.

“This… this pill, why does its medicinal power feel like the Jade Bone Medicine…”

“Very similar, no, not very similar, its medicinal power is stronger.”

Chen Yingyuan and Peng Bo spoke one after another, immediately attracting the attention of the other eleven.

“Indeed, this pill has a stronger effect than the Jade Bone Medicine. Just its scent makes the flesh beneath my skin react.”

“This is clearly several times stronger than the Jade Bone Medicine I used at Wushuang.”

“Leader, is this for Cold Resistance Level cultivation?”

Luo Yuan and Yuan Cheng, who had previously taken Jade Bone Medicine at Wushuang, confirmed Chen Peng’s guess successively.

Yuwen Dao even directly guessed the purpose of the pill and immediately asked Xia Hong for confirmation, his face full of anticipation.

“Exactly, this is called Yangyuan Pill, it functions the same as Jade Bone Medicine, but its effect is three to four times stronger. From now on, those of Cold Resistance Level in Great Xia won’t have to worry about pills for cultivation.”

Yuan Cheng’s eyes swirled, and he immediately saluted Xia Hong:

“Thank you, Leader, for the pill!”

“Hahaha, you crafty kid, don’t try to be clever. The Yangyuan Pill is too precious, I won’t just give it to you for free.”

Seeing his little trick exposed, Yuan Cheng awkwardly laughed twice.

The others chuckled softly, continuing to look at Xia Hong, waiting for his explanation.

Xia Hong smiled and said, “The crafting of this Yangyuan Pill isn’t simple. In addition to the eleven kinds of medicinal herbs needed to brew Jade Bone, seven more must be added. These 18 herbs are very rare, so unless you can procure more herbs, future production won’t be much.

Currently, the Camp Supply Department has set its price at 2000 points of Contribution Value each. Whether the price can be lowered depends on your ability to provide herbs!”

2000 points each!

The crowd’s faces showed slight surprise upon hearing this. Apart from land and a few rare weapons, this was the most expensive item in Great Xia at present.

However, thinking that the Yangyuan Pill is used for Cold Resistance Level cultivation and its effects are several times that of Jade Bone, the crowd quickly came to terms with it.

It’s rightfully expensive!

“Qiu Peng, when you go to notify Xu Ning and Yue Feng later, take ten pills to give them, this first pill counts as a benefit from me to you, only charging you 1000 points of Contribution Value, deducted by the Camp Supply Department. Take it when you return, and then I’ll talk about the grouping for the Cold Resistance Level in the Martial Arts event…”

Xia Hong paused for a moment, then smilingly continued, “The Cold Resistance Level group in the Martial Arts event will adopt a head-to-head elimination tournament format. Because Great Xia currently has few at Cold Resistance Level, this time I’ve set the rewards quite generously.

First: Everyone who competes will receive a Yangyuan Pill whether they win or lose, as a basic reward;

Second: This competition will take the top five, all of whom will receive additional rewards.

The reward for first place is: 5 Yangyuan Pills, 30000 points of Contribution Value, a Thousand Forged Silver Weapon, a one-month exclusive Martial Arts Academy cultivation slot, 3 pounds of Blood Cold Wine, 100 pounds of refined salt;

Second place, 3 Yangyuan Pills, 25000 points of Contribution Value, a Thousand Forged Silver-coated Custom Weapon, a one-month exclusive Martial Arts Academy cultivation slot, 2 pounds of Blood Cold Wine, 100 pounds of refined salt;

Third place, 2 Yangyuan Pills, 20000 points of Contribution Value, a Thousand Forged Silver Weapon, a one-month exclusive Martial Arts Academy cultivation slot, 1 pound of Blood Cold Wine, 100 pounds of refined salt…….

The rewards for fourth and fifth are not much different from the third, 1 Yangyuan Pill, with Contribution Value decreasing by 5000 each, the rest remain unchanged.

When Xia Hong finished explaining the rewards for the top five, everyone’s breathing became a bit heavier, and their gaze grew fervent.

Currently, there are only 23 people at Cold Resistance Level. As long as one competes in a match, they can receive a Yangyuan Pill as a reward, which means the person who takes first place is likely to compete in five matches, combined with the first-place rewards, will have a total of ten Yangyuan Pills.

Ten!

Everyone looked down at the Yangyuan Pill in their hands, their expressions extremely fervent.
