Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1475
“The underground festival has been around for a long time, and every time this festival is held, it’s
usually in conjunction with the emergence of certain powerful resources!” exined Julian.
“Powerful resources? Could you be referring to the training resources necessary for those who wish to
train themselves to achieve spiritual enlightenment?” asked Gerald with a nod, seemingly
understanding what Julian was getting at.
“Indeed, but the reason the festival is held isn’t limited to the emergence of regr training resources
either, sir! At times, the festival is also held when magic artifacts capable of destroying the world are
found! While such items are certainly tempting for ordinary people to purchase and boast about, they’re
invaluable treasures to those training to attain spiritual enlightenment!”
“With that said, there’s alwayspetition when ites to such resources. It’s the reason why those
training to attain spiritual enlightenment choose to ignore their agreements during times like these and
abruptly join society in order topete for the resources!”

“Naturally, there are also ordinary people who wish to obtain such magic artifacts. Speaking of which,
I’m not sure if you already know this, but as long as a powerful family owns such a magic artifact, there
will definitely be a cultivating family who supports them from the shadows. While the buyer would
certainly get protection, the truth is, the cultivating family usually ends up remotely controlling
everything that happens within the buyer’s family!” detailed Julian.
Upon hearing that, Gerald found himself nodding. After all, from what he now knew, though the
Crawfords owned a few magic artifacts and things appeared to be fine on the surface, the truth was
that there had always been another Crawford family who had been secretly supporting them.
On the other hand, if an ordinary family acquired simr magic artifacts, they’d surely face the danger
of being reduced to nothing but a puppet.
“So that’s the reason you’ve been concealing your identity after entering society, right? Because you’re
aware that several people—who are also training to attain spiritual enlightenment—have rushed over
and are very possibly already among us with their identities concealed?” asked Gerald.
“Sharp as always, sir. Regardless, had I not kept a low profile and ended up getting discovered by
others who are also training to attain spiritual enlightenment, they’d surelyy endless traps for me or
even besiege me the second they’re able to!” said Julian.
“I see… The Waddys are the ones responsible for providing the tform for these contenders, correct?
Are they trying to allow for reasonable resource allocation using certain methods in advance?” asked
Gerald.
“That is correct, sir. You could say that the underground festival is simr to a martial arts conference.
During the actual event, many of the participants—who are actually people training to attain spiritual
enlightenment—will be disguising themselves as wealthy or even ordinary people. From what I’ve
gathered, many of them will also be relying on the prestige of influential families in order to get a better
chance ofpeting.”
“If the rumors are true, then the winner of thepetition—or the winning family—will also be given the
dominant right to take the lead in discovering the miracle on Tierson Mountain! That’s a big deal since
such an honor would only ever be granted to someone with the rank of a martial arts leader outside the
competition!”
“Oh? Has a miracle already been discovered on Tierson Mountain?” asked Gerald.
“Indeed!”
“I see… Tell me, though the Waddys are the organizers of the event, do you think they’ll be sending in
a participant of their own for thepetition?” asked Gerald.
“I do, though do note that being the organizer doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re the one leading the
event. Regardless, in order to secretly observe the situation this year, I’ve chosen not to cling onto
anyone training to attain spiritual enlightenment or join any powerful and influential families, which is
why I settled with the Duns before this.”
Hearing that, Gerald felt that he now fully understood the ins and outs of the matter.
With that, he began thinking about Master Ghost’s letter again. From what he could now guess, Master
Ghost wanted him to join the underground festival because he wanted Gerald to participate in the
competition.
‘Could there be hidden things rting to the secrets of my elixir-of-life field within the miracle on
Tierson Mountain…?’
The more Gerald thought about it, the more he realized how possible that was.
Gerald also finally understood why Master Ghost had beenying low this entire time. As it turned out,
the undercurrents of the Jenna Province were already surging despite how calm it appeared on the
surface.
Though there were probably already countless training forces that had secretly snuck into the Jenna
Province and were already present, Master Ghost had hinted that the miracle would be of great use to
him. Knowing that, Gerald knew that he definitely had to get his hands on it.
Still, though Gerald was confident that he was currently powerful enough to belittle many of the existing
forces, after his little lesson with the King of Judgment Portal, he now understood that no matter how
good he thought he was, there would always be someone better than him out there. With that in mind,
Gerald knew he couldn’t be too high-profile now. Thankfully, Julian’s exnation had given him some
inspiration.
His current n was to sneak in by joining certain families so that he could secretly observe the people
who were training to attain spiritual enlightenment. With any luck, he’d be able to find out about their
situations. Following that, he’d hopefully be able to eventuallye up with a n for himself.
After thinking about it for a while, Gerald then asked, “So, where exactly is the underground festival
being held?”
