"Money?"

Fang Mo paused for a moment, and then reacted.

The money Feng Xiaoge was talking about, of course, was the same thing as Fang Mo borrowing money from him before.

"Oh? Great, how did you get it? Fang Mo hurriedly asked.

"It's pretty much the same as I told you before. I have already told my parents that they will pre-spend all my pocket money in the second half of the year, plus I still have a little bit of the intermediary fee I got from you before, in short, I can make up 500,000 yuan. ”

"Pocket money for the second half of the year?" The corners of Fang Mo's mouth twitched.

is worthy of being a child of a rich family, and there are hundreds of thousands of pocket money in just half a year.

"Hey, Fang Mo, I can tell you, my parents said that since I have advanced my pocket money, they won't give me a penny in the second half of the year. If you don't help me do some more work in the second half of the year and let me earn some intermediary fees, I will become a poor egg in the second half of the year. ”

Fang Mo smiled: "Don't worry, as long as you can find a job, I will finish it beautifully, and ensure that you still have money to earn." Besides, I will also have income, and I can pay you back. ”

"Well, that's right, with your kid's ability, it's not difficult to make money, and I'm sure you'll be able to pay it back soon."

"Well, what about the rest of the money except for your 500,000?" Fang Mo asked again.

"I told Sister Yan, she promised to come up with at least 500,000 yuan, if you really need it, and you can't turn it over, she can also find a way to help you get more, up to 1 million. Hey, Fang Mo, Sister Yan is really good to you, I asked her to borrow money once, and she only promised to give me 100,000 at most, but now as soon as you open your mouth, she is willing to help you get 1 million. Say, do you have any special relationship with her? ”

Fang Mo glanced at Feng Xiaoge.

"What can it matter? She is willing to lend me so much, probably like you just said, believe me has the ability to pay back. ”

"Well, that's right. If you think that you have no ability and can't pay the money, Sister Yan will definitely not lend you so much in one go for no reason. You're not that handsome. ”

Fang Mo could only glance at him again.

"Okay, what about the rest? Last time you said you could borrow some more from Brother Ma? ”

"Yes, I'll go to Brother Ma too. Speaking ......of this, Feng Xiaoge looked a little hesitant and seemed to be a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong? He won't borrow? Fang Mo asked. Well...... That's normal, after all, I've met him once, and I don't know him well. ”

"No, no, no, he is not such a stingy person, he is not unwilling to borrow, but he ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just...... He said that lending you money for no reason will make you owe him a favor, which is not good, and he doesn't like it, so he proposed another plan. ”

Fang Mo sighed, thinking that this Ma Yuanning was really quite individual.

He was reluctant to lend money to Fang Mo and let Fang Mo owe favors to others, this idea Fang Mo liked very much, because Fang Mo also didn't like to owe favors to others.

Living alone since he was a child, Fang Mo has long developed the habit of trying to solve everything by himself, and he owes favors to this kind of thing, and he can do as little as he can.

"What's the plan?" Fang Mo asked.

"Da Ma said that the batch of flying swords you helped him improve last time worked very well, and it just so happened that he was also planning to ask you for help again to do some repairs and improvements to another batch of flying swords, so this time he didn't borrow money from you, but paid you 500,000 yuan in advance, and then offset it from the remuneration. What do you think? ”

Fang Mo pondered for a moment and nodded.

Ma Yuanning's plan is not bad, the 500,000 can only be regarded as an advance payment, although it can be regarded as a favor for Fang Mo, but compared to simply lending money to Fang Mo, this debt is much smaller, after the payment of the two parties, no one owes anyone, which is more fair and reasonable.

"Yes, then tell Brother Ma for me, and when I finish participating in this selection competition, I will have two to three months of free time in the middle, and I can listen to him at any time."

"Okay, then it's settled." Seeing Fang Mo agree, Feng Xiaoge breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "Hey, Fang Mo, speaking of the selection competition, I have seen the news recently, you publicly stated at the press conference that you did not go to open the Heavenly Sword Gate, but wanted to join the Federal Academy, is it really just like you said, just to learn refining?" ”

"Yes, it's just to learn alchemy." Fang Mo nodded. "You see, I can only make so much money by relying on my refining skills, so I dare to borrow so much money from you, Zhuo Yan and Brother Ma, if I can study hard, I may be able to become a refining master in the future, and it will be easier to make money at that time, right?"

"Hmm...... Although I prefer to practice, it's your business, and I don't have any opinion. Actually, that's fine, I believe that with your ability, you will definitely be able to become a refining master in the future, and at that time, maybe Sister Yan and I, as well as Dama, will come to you for help. ”

Fang Mo laughed: "I hope there will be that day." ”

The two of them chatted for a while, ending the correspondence.

Looking at the virtual screen that had restored darkness, Fang Mo thought about it in his heart.

With the 500,000 yuan promised by Feng Xiaoge, the 50-1 million promised by Zhuo Yan, and the 500,000 or more advance payment promised by Ma Yuanning, it is not a problem to compensate for the liquidated payment of the Heavenly Sword Gate.

If the Heaven Opening Sword Sect had agreed to the deal proposed by Fang Mo after seeing the improvement plan of the core circle of the measuring instrument that Govita had handed over in the past, then it could offset some more.

In this way, this liquidated damages do not pose any pressure on Fang Mo.

The only trouble is the next negotiation with the Open Heaven Sword Gate.

"Eh, let's talk about it then, anyway, this matter has already been made public, and if you want to open the Heavenly Sword Gate, you don't dare to embarrass me publicly, unless they don't recruit disciples from the Earth Federation in the future, otherwise it will be a bad reputation."

"It's more important to keep working on yourself than worrying about it. As long as I become stronger, it will not be me who will seek to open the Heavenly Sword Sect to discuss, but the Open Heavenly Sword Sect will take the initiative to find me. ”

Fang Mo let go of those meaningless concerns, stretched out his finger to light up the virtual screen, and refocused his mind on the core circle diagram he had just drawn.

……

……

The next two rounds were relatively uneventful, and Fang Mo defeated his opponent without any danger, successfully entered the seventh round of the main event, and also entered the key round of 16 into 8.

When it came to this round of competition, among the student representatives sent by the Second High School Affiliated to Jingnan City of Kaitian Jianmen, two more were eliminated in the first two rounds, leaving only Fang Mo and another student named Ding Tong.

Fang Mo had a little impression of Ding Tong, because he once eliminated Fang Mo in a school internal martial arts competition in his sophomore year of high school, and later he went all the way to the 9th level of internal assessment at that conference, which made a big splash.

It's just that after entering the third year of high school, his cultivation progress slowed down, and the next two internal martial arts competitions in the school were not so bright, but he was still able to maintain level 8.

This is a rather embarrassing level, because it is just not enough to be directly recruited by the Open Heaven Sword Sect, but it is obviously better than other students.

Fortunately, he still has a chance, that is, if he performs well in this selection competition, he can be additionally favored by the Open Heaven Sword Gate and be recruited.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Ding Tong fought fiercely in the game, and an opponent he met in the last round was actually the same realm and level as him, but because he was not as ruthless as him, he finally lost, making him stand out among the 5 students who won the main competition and became the only one left.

But that was obviously not enough for him, as just reaching the round of 16 at the selection tournament was not a particularly impressive record.

If you want to be more eye-catching, and even attract the special attention of the Open Heaven Sword Gate, you must at least break into the top eight and even win the championship.

When Fang Mo saw Ding Tong, it was not surprising that he still looked like he was in high spirits.

"Fang Mo, although we are classmates, since we met here, then I won't be polite to you."

Fang Mo's opponent in this round is Ding Tong.

For this round, both sides take it very seriously.

Not to mention Ding Tong, it is just as important to Fang Mo.

Because according to the rules announced by the Academy Association before the competition, the top 8 participants in the selection competition will all be given a guaranteed place by the College Association.

With this guaranteed place, you can be admitted to any of the training institutes on the list of the Association of Colleges.

In other words, as long as Fang Mo wins this round, he will be able to directly get a guaranteed place, and he can even choose one of the two most famous cultivation colleges, Hartangen College and Wolf University.

Because of this purpose, Fang Mo would certainly not have any reservations.

"You're welcome." Fang Mo smiled at Ding Tong, and then sighed again. "It's just a pity that after this game, only one person from our school can stay in this arena. If I could, I'd like to save this fight for the final. ”

Ding Tong sneered: "Since this is already the result, it is useless to say more." Come on, I don't know if you deliberately hid your strength in the previous school internal martial arts competitions, but today we are standing on a field, and I must remind you that it will be useless to hide your strength, otherwise I will be seriously injured by me at that time, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

Fang Mo shrugged: "Of course I'm not polite, after all, I want to enter the cultivation academy to study, and it is necessary for me to enter the guaranteed quota for the top 8 rewards." ”

"Hmph, entering the top 8 is also very important for me to join the Open Heaven Sword Sect!"

Ding Tong snorted coldly, no longer talking nonsense with Fang Mo, and when he heard the referee announce the start of the game, he stepped on it, his body galloped over, and he punched Fang Mo.

Unlike the opponents Fang Mo had encountered in the previous rounds, Ding Tong did not use weapons.
