Xu Chunniang understood what Mr. Gong meant, "Isn't it a good thing to be targeted by them?"
"It's hard to say. Dangers and opportunities coexist."
Old Gong hesitated to speak, "These big forces are fighting each other very seriously, and they are intertwined. If you offend someone by mistake, you may be exiled to a bitter and cold place like me.
Joining these big forces does give you more opportunities, but it also means that you must unconditionally obey their arrangements and dispatches, and cannot have your own ideas. "
Not having ideas of her own is definitely not the path Xu Chunniang wants to take.
Her original intention of entering the fighting arena was just to earn immortal crystals. She didn't want to get involved with various forces and lose herself.
She was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What if I reject all the offers from these big forces?"
Old Gong sighed quietly and thought of his past self.
He used to dislike these dictatorial powers and just wanted to practice alone in silence. However, practicing alone was too slow. He persisted for thousands of years, but finally had to compromise with reality helplessly.
However, Xu Chunniang's situation is much better than his at the beginning.
"You have signed a contract with the Arena, so you are considered a member of the Arena. Even if you really reject the recruitment of those big forces, they will not embarrass you for the sake of the Arena, so you don't have to worry too much.
But you must be careful not to offend these powerful forces, so as not to incur retaliation."
"Thank you for your advice, Mr. Gong. Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
After hearing this, Xu Chunniang finally felt relieved. No matter how confident she was in her own strength, she would not be so arrogant as to think that she, who was at the initial stage of human immortality, could defeat those powerful celestial immortals and immortal kings.
Seeing that she took his words to heart, Mr. Gong nodded with satisfaction, "If I'm not mistaken, those people will come to you soon. I have something else to do, so let's stop talking here today. I'll come back to watch your fight in a few days."
After seeing off Mr. Gong, Xu Chunniang closed the gate. Before she had time to clear the teacups on the table, she received a message from the manager of the fighting arena, inviting her to the front hall for a chat.
When Xu Chunniang arrived, the steward had been waiting for a long time. When he saw her coming, he quickly stood up and greeted her with a smile.
"This time the message was sent in a hurry. Did it not disturb Fairy Xu?"
Xu Chunniang shook her head. "I just have nothing to do, so it's not a big deal to disturb you."
The steward chuckled, invited Xu Chunniang to sit down, and asked meaningfully.
"I think Fairy Xu also knows who the real owner of our fighting arena is, right?"
Xu Chunniang had a rough guess about the steward's purpose, and followed his words and said, "I heard a little bit that the real owner of the fighting field is the Xuanji Fairy in the Three Heavens."
The steward looked at Xu Chunniang approvingly and nodded proudly.
"Yes, it seems that Fairy Xu is not completely ignorant of the fighting arena. Speaking of Fairy Xuanji, who in the Lower Three Heavens doesn't know her? Not only is she extremely powerful, she is also the younger sister of Fairy King Yuli in the Fourth Heaven, and her status is prominent and noble."
Xu Chunniang nodded in agreement. "The steward specially asked me to come here. I guess he didn't just want to tell me this, right?"
The steward smiled, took out a contract that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Xu Chunniang.
"I called you here this time because I have something to discuss with you. Fairy Xu, please take a look at the contract in my hand and see if there is anything you are not satisfied with."
Xu Chunniang took the contract, glanced at the contents, and sneered inwardly.
Unexpectedly, the first big force to find her was the fighting field.
It makes sense. The one who is close to the water gets the moon first. Compared with other big forces, the fighting arena has a natural advantage.
The conditions in this contract were much more generous than the one she had signed before, but once she signed this contract, it would not be easy for her to leave the arena in the future.
According to what was written in the contract, not only could she refuse some duels, she could even take the initiative to choose her own opponents.
What excited her the most was that as long as she signed this contract, there would be no limit on the amount she could bet on in all future fights.
After a little thought, Xu Chunniang understood why the fighting arena did this.
Not long ago, she used the power of words in the battle with Fu Yuan. The fighting arena must have been impressed by her strength and potential and wanted to win her over.
The steward observed Xu Chunniang's reaction and asked, "How is it? Are you satisfied with the terms of the contract? If you have any dissatisfaction, please feel free to ask."
Xu Chunniang put down the contract in her hand and looked at the steward. "I am very satisfied with the conditions offered by the fighting arena, but the future is still long, and I don't plan to stay in the fighting arena forever."
The manager patiently said, "What's wrong with staying in the fighting arena? You can earn immortal crystals and become famous. Why not do it?"
Xu Chunniang smiled, did not respond, stood up and said goodbye.
"The contract I signed with the fighting arena before was very good. There is no need to sign another one. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
"Wait a minute, don't be anxious, Fairy Xu. After you go back, you won't have anything to do for a while. If you are dissatisfied with this contract, you can still discuss it."
The steward tried his best to persuade Xu Chunniang and finally managed to persuade her to stay.
The task assigned to him by his superiors was to keep the person in the arena at all costs and make sure not to let other forces snatch him away.
Xu Chunniang did not want to fall out with the housekeeper, so she sat down and pretended to look at the contract again, but in fact she was thinking about how to negotiate the terms so that the arena would remove the limit on her bets.
"Actually, I understand what the Arena means. They want to sign a new contract with me. They don't want me to join other powerful forces, right?"
"Since Fairy Xu has guessed it, I will not hide it from you. Many people join the fighting arena every month, but it is rare to stand out from so many fighters. It is even rarer to become famous overnight like Fairy Xu."
The manager said tactfully, "All the fighters we worked so hard to train have been poached by others. Isn't it a waste of effort?"
Xu Chunniang had only been in the fighting arena for less than two months, but she had already surpassed many fighters who had been in the arena for several years or even more than ten years.
If she keeps winning at this rate, every match will be packed and she will definitely become a cash cow in the arena.
As such, the fighting arena would naturally not allow her to be poached by other forces.
Xu Chunniang nodded in understanding, "What the manager said makes sense, but I don't quite like this contract.
How about this, we change the content of the contract, and I will not join any faction during the fighting period, how about that? "
The steward thought for a moment and understood what Xu Chunniang meant. She didn't want to join any faction, nor did she want to get too deeply entangled with the fighting arena.
However, although her approach is not as direct as signing a contract directly, it will not harm the interests of the fighting arena, so it is not a bad idea.
