Shanghai is an overseas region of Maple World on the China part of the World Map. Its riverside town is The Bund. Nearby are the Shanghai Airfield, east of The Bund, and the Yuyuan Garden. To the west lies farmland full of livestock driven wild. For the high-level Yu Garden area, which is a separate trip with Spinel, see also Wu Tien Mountain.

Getting there

By Spinel: talk to Spinel in a main town (Henesys, Ellinia, Perion, Kerning City, Lith Harbor, Orbis, Ludibrium, Leafre, Mu Lung, Ariant and others) and choose The Bund (Shanghai) · Lv 15-50. The trip is free, and any level can take it. The level range on the label is not a requirement. Spinel also stands at The Bund, and his Return home takes you back to where you left from, or to Lith Harbor if he cannot tell.
By plane, one way: Yang the Pilot at the Shanghai Airfield flies you to Perion for 2,000 Vesos. He only flies out of Shanghai.

★

Different from the original game In MapleVerse Spinel's trip to Shanghai is free and has no level requirement.

Shanghai Airfield and Yuyuan Garden

The Airfield is east of The Bund. It has a Free Market entrance, and you can save it as your return point. Yang the Pilot flies to Perion from here. Juice Bar Granny sells nothing; she only chats.

Yuyuan Garden also has a Free Market entrance, and you can save it as your return point. It has a beauty salon:

Senior Hair Stylist: haircut or dye, you choose (2,000 Vesos)
Hair Salon Assistant: haircut or dye, random (2,000 Vesos)
Makeover Room Owner: plastic surgery, you choose (2,000 Vesos)
Makeover Room Assistant: plastic surgery, random (2,000 Vesos)
Skin Care Center Owner: skin care (1,000,000 Vesos)

For the salons, see Hair Salons and Plastic Surgery.

The Adventure Arena

From Yuyuan Garden a door leads to the Adventure Arena Entrance; three Rings lead off it. It is a contest for two players, not a fight between players. When a game starts, one of three games is picked at random:

Defeat Your Own Monster: a monster bearing your own name appears; the first to defeat their own monster wins.
Monster Hunt: monsters appear all over the Ring; whoever defeats the most wins.
Obstacle Course: the first past every obstacle to the finish wins.

The PvP Guide answers questions; the PvP Ranking Board shows the standings.

Hunting grounds

How the maps connect

West of The Bund: Outskirts of Shanghai, then Northern Shanghai Plains, Northern Shanghai Hills and Xizhou Crossroads, where you find Mr. Yang.
From Xizhou Crossroads, go west through Xizhou Plains 1 and Xizhou Plains 2 to Xizhou Plains 3, a dead end. Or go north to Central Plains Highlands 1 and Central Plains Highlands 2.
A hidden portal high up in The Bund leads straight to Central Plains Highlands 2, and a hidden portal high up in Central Plains Highlands 2 leads to Xizhou Plains 2.
Officer Lim guards the way from Central Plains Highlands 2 to the Domain of the Black Sheep; he lets you in only once you have accepted or finished Chief Officer Chu's Secret Mission. In the Domain, Officer Chung opens the Secret Passage once you have taken Officer Jung's Request from him, or sends you back. Officer Kang walks you from the Secret Passage back to Central Plains Highlands 2.

If you are knocked out on the fields, you come back at The Bund. In the Domain of the Black Sheep and the Secret Passage, you come back at Central Plains Highlands 2.

Quests

All of these quests are open to any job.

★

Different from the original game These Shanghai quests were limited-time events in the original game. Here they stay available, and most pay much more EXP.

Owner Yeo and Mr. Yang (level 10)

Each step needs the one before it.

Stall Owner Mr. Yeo's New Menu (Owner Yeo, The Bund): 100 Chicken Feet (from Roosters). 3,700 EXP.

Photographer Mr. Cho's Request (Cho the photographer): bring him the Tripod. 25,000 EXP.
If you lost the Tripod, The Lost Camera Tripod (from Mr. Yang, after the farm work): 50 Nose Rings (from Cows) for a new Tripod. It is only offered when you do not hold one.

The rampaging livestock and the police (level 45)

The Rampaging Livestock (Mr. Yang): 100 Sheep Skin (from Sheep) and 100 White Horns (from Goats). 76,000 EXP.

Officer Jung's Request (level 45, Officer Chung in the Domain of the Black Sheep): 50 Black Fur. 33,000 EXP. Taking it lets Officer Chung open the Secret Passage.

i

The Centipede Red Marble and the Black Fur are not carried by one particular monster. While the quest is open, any monster you defeat can drop them, the Red Marble only rarely.

Common problems

"Officer Lim won't let me through." He only opens the Domain of the Black Sheep once you have accepted Chief Officer Chu's Secret Mission (or finished it).
"Where do I get Black Fur / the Centipede Red Marble?" From any monster while the quest is open (see above).
"How do I get back from Shanghai?" Spinel's Return home at The Bund, or Yang the Pilot to Perion.
