Chapter 1889: Setting Up a Stall
As someone experienced in this line of work, Mr. Chen knew better than most the importance of not burning bridges and never underestimating the potential of the young. With his sharp eye for people, he could tell this boy was anything but ordinary. Even though the pills the boy offered were of a lower grade now, that didn’t mean they always would be.
That was why he hadn’t been the type to look down on others, risking cutting off his future opportunities.
“Got it.” Xi Yue quickly waved over her shoulder, signaling goodbye, and then slipped out the door.
…
This wasn’t Xi Yue’s first visit to the trading area of the Spirit Refining Domain. The last time she came, Lin Zhi had taken her to purchase a Mortality Hall Tier 2 “Examination Book.” During that visit, she noticed that while everything was for sale, most were at a relatively low level.
However, “low-level” was a relative term, especially when compared to the auction house. For someone like Xi Yue, who had come from the rural lands of the Miluo Continent, the pills sold here could easily be classified as sixth or seventh grades, judging by their rich spiritual essence.
Of course, following Siam Continent’s grade, these could only be marked as grade 4 or grade 5.
The same went for the magic weapons. In the Miluo Continent, those highly sought after were nothing more than ordinary scraps here, easily found in abundance.
As Xi Yue circled around, she noticed that quite a few people were trading low-level pills.
Generally, medicinal pills of grade seven and above were considered high-grade and could only be consumed by martial artists or cultivators at the Soul Splitting Stage.
For martial artists ranging from the Qi Refining Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, consuming medicinal pills of grade seven or above would offer no benefits. In fact, it could harm their meridians and potentially lead to the explosion of their dantian, resulting in death from the effects of the drug.
Xi Yue paid ten crystal stones at the trading center and was quickly assigned a stall in a corner.
The stall’s poor location was due to the fact that, in addition to crystal stones, vendors in the trading area needed points as a measure of their credibility. The higher the duel points, the better the location they would receive.
In addition to getting duel points in the arena, they could also be gained by completing numerous trades in the trading area, ranking in the top 20 on the major leaderboards of the Spirit Refining Domain, or participating in tasks for mercenaries. However, the points earned through these activities paled in comparison to those won in the arena.
Xi Yue found her seat, sat down, and soon began to leisurely browse the books in her hand.
This was something she had stumbled upon at a stall in the trading area—a rare ancient book printed on paper. It detailed a cultivator’s travels through the landscapes of the Siam Continent, along with insights in their cultivation practice.
Xi Yue found it quite fascinating; it reminded her of the travel novels from her past life. Unable to resist, she decided to buy it.
Nearby, several stalls were selling medicinal pills, and the vendors were energetically shouting, boasting that their pills were unparalleled in quality.
However, their location wasn’t ideal, resulting in only a handful of customers passing by.
An hour passed, and the vendors managed to close only a few deals. Meanwhile, Xi Yue, who hadn’t called out a single time, hadn’t sold even one pill.
The vendor closest to Xi Yue couldn’t help but urge her to promote her business more actively, but she simply smiled in response.
An hour and a half later, another young man about 16 years old passed by.
The young man had a handsome appearance, but his expression was somewhat dejected. His brows were tightly furrowed, as if he were burdened by deep worries.
Walking to the stalls here, he asked casually, “Do you sell any spirit purifying pills here?”
When several stall owners heard that it was the spirit purifying pills, they immediately shook their heads with regret.
While the spirit purifying pills weren’t particularly valuable, they were typically refined for a single spiritual root, making them difficult to sell in a trading area like theirs. ṘåŊÖВÊȘ
