Lu Zhou checked the price of a Deadly Strike Card. As expected, it was now at 23,000 merit points. Based on his recent experience, the price hike would be triggered every time he purchased, used, or raised his cultivation base. If he used all his merit points to purchase the cards now, the price would become exorbitant. However, if he did not buy them, he would not have cards to use while his cultivation base remained the same.
"Purchase." He bought one Deadly Strike Card, and the price rose to 24,000 merit points immediately. Then, he bought one Impeccable Card, and both cards rose to 25,000 merit points. These were within his expectations. He could accept this. After all, true experts were rare.
"Hm? New cards?" Soon enough, Lu Zhou discovered two new cards listed at the bottom.
"Mentor. Long-lasting passive skill. Whenever you train your disciples, you'll achieve twice the effect with half the effort. Price: 30,000 merit points."
