Wang Fengna said, "We had an agreement just now that entering the Imperial Family Secret Territory requires a fee. Commander Yang, could you please collect the fees first? I must continue to work on breaking through the Defensive Barrier."
After giving the instructions, Wang Fengna turned and left. Commander Yang was somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Fengna's decision, but he did not voice any objections. Instead, he followed the fee standards that Wang Fengna had set and began collecting from Qi Tian and the others.
The fees were not cheap: one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones for the First Level of the Gold Core Realm, with an additional one hundred thousand for each higher level. Despite the steep price, all—both Lin Zhiyuan's group and Qi Tian's group—were eager to smoothly enter the Imperial Family Secret Territory and quite willingly paid the requisite amount of middle-grade spirit stones.
