The debris surrounding the stone fell off in layers and soon the attribute stone inside could be seen—Strength +9.

"Not bad." Hong Dali enchanted it as well, then threw it aside and continued with the next piece!

"Honestly speaking, you really went in?" Tang Long might be just an AI butler, but like a real person, he had his idiosyncrasies. He conjured up a cigar, put it between his lips and took a puff. Then, he arrogantly asked, "What level did you get to? Let me guess, you should have at least managed level sixteen or seventeen?"

"Pop", another attribute gem was processed, it was an Agility +8 gem. He enchanted it and threw it aside. Without even turning his head, Hong Dali said, "It was okay. I passed thirty levels. Other than a Teleportation Ring, everything else was pretty ordinary. There wasn't anything really good. The most important thing was, I couldn't squander in there—oh right, I got a prodigal bird. It's not bad, I like it!"

"Cough, cough, cough!" Hong Dali said it matter-of-factly that Tang Long started coughing violently. He coughed for quite a while as he was too shocked. "You say you passed all thirty levels? For real? In the past, there was a training tower just like this one. My Master only managed to pass twenty-six levels on the first day. The most powerful man in the Galaxy, Duan Xuan, also only managed to pass twenty-seven levels. And you are telling me you passed all thirty?!"

"I have skills that are very effective in there." Hong Dali sniffled, unconcerned. "I'm lucky."

"Even if your luck is good, it shouldn't be possible to pass thirty levels in one day! Did the standard of the towers nowadays drop?" Tang Long decided to attribute Hong Dali's achievement to the lowered standards of the Tower of Trials. He knew Hong Dali was too indifferent and he would not get an answer out of him. He shifted his attention elsewhere. "Speaking of which, what are you doing with these rubbish stones? Are you planning to raise your lackeys' attributes? You have to buy high-grade gems. If you get ordinary ones they won't help much..."

Then, he regretted it...

"This... this is..." Tang Long looked at another gem and his mouth gaped open. "God, this gem is Strength +13, this is Agility +12, another Strength +13... and there's even one that is Strength +14!"

He was someone who had seen the world, but for some reason, when he was with Hong Dali, he somehow felt like a country bumpkin. Hong Dali mumbled, "Country bumpkin, this adds just a few points of attribute..."

"It's a Strength +14 gem, what do you mean a few points of attribute?" Tang Long raged. "It's less than one in ten thousand, and you say that the attribute is not high?"

He threw another enchanted gem that was Strength +13 out. "That's right. Too bad I couldn't find any +15 ones..."

"Fifteen! You can't get those even if you have money!" Tang Long's eyes were bulging out and he shouted, "Wait, not right, this is not right! You can process gems? You can increase the attributes of gems?

"Yes." Hong Dali dug his nose. "But it's not strong enough, I can only add four points..."

"Add four points?! Only?!" Tang Hong was instantly furious. "This is going against the natural order of things! With this ability, you're practically a money-making machine! No wonder you are never worried even though you are such a prodigal. You are well aware of your abilities!"

"I'm afraid that I'm spending too little." Hong Dali was a little troubled. To be honest, he was not in need of money now, but the problem was, he had no idea what kind of tasks the System would assign him in the future. According to the System's usual behavior, the tasks he was currently doing were just easy ones. Simply put, they were just to test him. The harder tasks would definitely come later. If there were any tasks that he could not complete, the consequences would be dire!
