"Fifteen thousand gold coins for a Huobo-class manual?" exclaimed a man in a tone of disbelief.

"Has that youngster lost his mind? That's a very high price, even for the standards of Huobo's most expensive manuals!"

Meanwhile, the other people in the room were busy discussing the figure of the young master who dared to purchase the Talisman manual at such a high price. The atmosphere became boisterous, and rumors began to circulate.

"Who is that young master?" a woman asked with deep curiosity. "Is he from the Four Seasons Noble Family? Or perhaps from the Zhao Family? Or, perhaps, he's from the Xiao Family?"

At that time, out of all the Four Seasons noble families, only the Zhao Family and Xiao Family had yet to act on the bargain. They seemed to be hiding in the crowd, seemingly waiting and watching, like hawks ready to pounce on prey.

"The Tang family just bought a manual represented by Tang Wei," said an old man with a hoarse voice. "As for the Murong Family? That is an impossible

    The voices of people shouting encouraged Tang Wei to bid for the manual at a higher price. However, Tang Wei's face turned pale. He felt cornered, trapped in a difficult decision."My means are limited to fifteen thousand gold coins," he muttered to himself. "I must set aside funds and give priority to bidding on the Main Auction.”“Instead of squandering money on a Huobo-class manual. Let me just give in this time, I don't want to be scolded by the Patriarch if I run out of money and can't participate in the main auction."With gritted teeth and restrained embarrassment, Tang Wei raised a hand, signaling that he wouldn't bid any higher. "Let the manual belong to the young master," he said in an almost inaudible voice.Tang Wei's face turned red as the entire auction room sneered at him. Tang Wei could only stare intently at the hick-looking rich young man with an angry expression. "You'll see. I'll take the manual away, if I get the chance!" thought Tang Wei with a face that now look

    Eadric Rong gave the congee vendor a quick glance.The vendor carried his wares, then put down his basket and sat at the corner of the narrow street. He hoped that Eadric Rong would have had a hard time getting through the narrow passage, if the congee vendor hadn't moved his wares to make room for others to pass through.In addition, there was a beggar sitting not far from him. The beggar had been mumbling in an indistinct voice, the words roughly reading "I'm hungry...""A beggar with clean clothes, and four sacks on his back?" thought Eadric Rong. What an irony. A beggar in clean clothes complaining of hunger, while there's a chicken porridge vendor with the tantalizing aroma of broth and stir-fried garlic next to him? Eadric Rong's vigilance instantly increased."Uncle... can't you lift your tools, so that young me can pass?" said Eadric Rong in a friendly tone full of anticipation. However, those two were behaving strangely. "Why trade in a lonely, narrow alley? Besides... beggin

    With incredible speed, the An Qi thrown by the four-sack beggar rushed over.Meanwhile, the chicken porridge vendor's cleaver was also moving at the same speed. The speed of these two attacks made it difficult for even a high-level martial arts expert to avoid them.However, there was a sudden crackling sound from the young man's hand, similar to the sound of wood breaking.KRAK - KRAK!Following the deafening sound, the young man they considered weak shouted in a high-pitched voice."DRAGON'S CRYING CLAW!"Something the two mysterious attackers never expected happened.The young man's hand suddenly formed a deadly grip similar to a dragon's claw. White smoke billowed out and formed the shadow and silhouette of a dragon.Fearlessly, the young man slammed his right hand into the gleaming machete, as if he had no fear of having his hand cut in half.PRANG!After the clash between the youth's dragon claw and the cleaver, a clattering sound filled the quiet night, making the two attackers

    The chicken porridge seller who cooperated with the Four Sacks Beggar, in his opinion, had gone too far, wanting to take his life just for the sake of a manual.Holding some evidence in hand, "We'll see what I do with that organization," Eadric Rong muttered.Now, he had confirmed that the porridge man was indeed a hitman from the Five Colors Organization. He stepped up and left the deserted alley.Right now, the deserted hallway was silent again after Eadric Rong's departure.When the night watchman and the opas - a time-keeper with a bell - walked through the alleyway, they found only the traces of the battle: a wall in ruins. They found only the traces of the battle in the form of a crumbling wall."Murder!"The opas officer tapped the drum loudly. His voice broke the silence of the night as the first drum was about to be sounded. And Daqi Capital was shocked that very night."A chicken porridge vendor was found dead on a deserted road. Surprisingly, there are traces of the attack

    On a dark night, Mount Lingyun looked gloomy.A somber yet quiet and serene impression will befall the feelings of anyone who sees it, as if the guarding of the Five Colors Organization, from the foot of the mountain to the gate at the top, does not seem strict. However, don't get me wrong.Calm waters are not always harmless. As the saying goes, beware... still waters can wash away.Behind all this vigilance, there were several spies of the Five Colors Organization standing guard. They were along with demonic creatures lurking in the darkness of the night, ready to pounce on anyone who dared to try to break through to Lingyun Mountain Peak.Currently, at the edge of the Osmanthus Forest, there were two guards hiding and blending into the night.They were as if they were part of the Osmanthus tree and the Spruce tree itself, very much in disguise. They were both always on standby to unleash their secret weapon - An Qi, or throw a flying knife on that pitch-black night, in case of an i

    Inside the main room of the Five Colors Organization, Yan Huansheng, the authoritative and feared leader, had not slept that night. His habits were opposite to those of ordinary people.For him, day became night, and night became day when he worked. Most orders to kill someone were usually carried out secretly by figures who did not want to be recognized by anyone.This was the reason why Yan Huansheng had not gone to bed even though it was already the early hours of the night.As Yan Huansheng was busy calculating the amount of revenue that had come in this week, he was struck by something odd."Why hasn't that porridge man come back yet? Did something happen to him?" muttered Yan Huansheng. His eyes were glued to the notepad in front of him, and he did not look up even though at that moment, the sound of shoes could be heard quite loudly, walking into his room."Did that Liu Jin fail in his task of killing the auction-winning boy in the Hall of Fortune Koi? Ah... but that's impossib

    With a powerful push, the Black Bat King pushed Yan Huansheng, so that the man staggered back, and fell heavily. His limp body slammed straight into the chairs and tables in the room. BRAK!Hurry up... In a stupor, Yan Huansheng attempted to stand up, and wanted to kneel down to worship the Black Bat King, and take his heart.He bowed pleadingly... "Forgive me, Bianfu Wang..."However, the words full of falsehood from Yan Huansheng's lips stopped halfway.The figure of the Black Bat King has disappeared, who knows when he left. This Black Bat King moved like a demon that could penetrate time and space, making no sound at all.Yan Huansheng shivered even more, remembering his impudence in mentioning that the Black Bat King had died earlier."How dangerous... It's dangerous..." Yan Huansheng hissed as he wiped the sweat from his temples. His fear was so deep that he forgot that there was a trickle of blood flowing from the wound on his neck.However, Yan Huansheng's eyes were fixed on a

    Xia Mu was originally a cultivator who later joined the Beggar's Society. He was actually a rogue cultivator with no school or sect. He learned all his martial arts skills by relying on his cunning and taking advantage of others.For example, his relative Duan Xiang in the Khong Tong Sect was happy to teach him the martial techniques of the Khong Tong Sect. Although Xia Mu had no intention of applying to be part of this empty-handed martial arts sect."Why should I join and be attached to an organization, if only to become an ordinary member?" Xia Mu questioned. "I have to at least be a person of status in the sect or association to join!" he said, as he asked Duan Xiang to teach him hand-to-hand combat, a secret technique of the sect.Compassionate after hearing young Xia Mu's whining, his relative Duan Xiang—an elder in the Khong Tong Sect—taught him a hand-to-hand technique known as Yin Zhao Gong - Eagle Claw Style."Be careful using this Eagle Claw Style, as it is only learned by

    "Isn't it possible that the Zhen Long pill, the grand prize we're after, will be brought in by an expert from the neighboring Empire. That would tarnish the face of all the cultivators of this country!" worried murmurs could be heard from various directions.Meanwhile, on the other side, the Five Star Sect seats that were filled with an aura of majesty seemed to flinch. Even so, dissatisfaction was clearly visible in their eyes. Everyone there was angry, though restrained themselves very well."Should I go forward?" Zhou Wen, the young genius of the Blue Sky Sect, asked quietly to his Sect Leader, Liang Tiancheng. The look in his eyes signaled his readiness to act."No need," Liang Tiancheng replied, his voice firm. "There are still four other Five Star Sects ranked below you. Stay in your seat, show your attitude as a supreme power holder."Zhou Wen nodded, accepting the order with humility. Although his desire to advance was strong, he still respected his leader's decision.With thi

    "Look, Li Yong from Xuehua Academy. Are you going to face me with the Sacred Heart Sword move?" asked Bao Xuan in a calm tone, yet there was a mocking tone in it.He fanned his sweaty body, his face showing a hint of fatigue from the previous fight.The presence of the two geniuses of the Five Star Sect was indeed quite draining for Bao Xuan, although he still tried to maintain his imperious appearance.Then, Bao Xuan clapped loudly, and suddenly a man emerged from the crowd. The man looked unknown, but he was carrying a bottle of water and a pill. The imperial officials standing around the stage allowed the man to approach Bao Xuan without hindrance.With a sly smile that expressed satisfaction, Bao Xuan accepted the drink and pills. After taking a sip, he calmly said to Li Yong,"Is Young Swordsman Li Yong willing to give me ten minutes to recover energy? Isn't it tantamount to cheating if you win a fight without giving your opponent a chance to recover after fighting twice in a row

    All eyes were fixed on the stage as the excitement grew.The screeching sound of the demon skull's claws caused a strong wind to whip up, adding to the tension in the air.White smoke billowed out with a choking tension, covering the battle area like an icy fog covering a frozen landscape.Amidst the mist, there was no sound of Bao Xuan howling in pain, as if he was untouched by Wei Qiang's attack.The silence added to the anxiety in the hearts of the audience, making them wonder:"Is Bao Xuan really that tough? Even Wei Qiang of the Black Shadow Sect couldn't defeat him in ten moves?""Let's hope that at the end of this attack, Wei Qiang will come out victorious!"The audience prayed silently, full of worry.Bao Xuan's extremely confident actions earlier had planted a seed of doubt in their minds. The roar of the crowd filled the air, adding to the tension and anticipation of the outcome of this fight.Just then, the cold winter wind blew, the white smoke from Wei Qiang's attack bega

    The contest rules prohibiting a fight to the death no longer mattered to him. His resolve was made—if necessary, he would drag Bao Xuan into the abyss of death together."In that case, prepare to die!" shouted Jiang Hui, his voice echoing, shaking the arena filled with spectators. His sword flashed, slashing through the air with unimaginable speed, as if about to split the sky.In an instant, a sword beam emitting silver light spread across the entire stage, forming a powerful vortex of energy. Snow flakes flew out, blown by the sharp gusts of wind caused by his sword movements, creating the illusion of a blizzard enveloping the entire arena.However, as the sword light and snow flakes faded, and the rumbling sound that resembled crashing waves subsided, Bao Xuan was still standing tall in the center of the stage.His body did not flinch in the slightest. His face remained calm, even looking a little bored. His handsome face exuded a haughty air, while the faint smile that graced his

    If only there wasn't a rule prohibiting the Five Star Sect from competing with the Four Star Sect, the geniuses of the Five Star Sect might have already stepped onto the stage to humiliate Jiang Hui who was now standing arrogantly before everyone.When everyone was almost certain that Jiang Hui would win the Dragon Meeting for geniuses of the Four Star Sect, suddenly a shadowy figure flashed at an incredible speed, difficult for ordinary eyes to follow.In an instant, a young man was standing on the stage, stealing the show with his striking appearance.The young man looked like a descendant of nobility, no more than twenty years old. He wore a soft blue tunic with intricate patterns, showing his status and wealth. The long jacket that covered his heels was made of selected silk, flowing gracefully in the cold winter wind, adding a sense of elegance to his figure.His face was handsome, but a sardonic smile was clearly etched on his lips. He wore the typical skullcap of an imperial of

  • The Meeting of Dragons Begins.

    As they spoke, the crowd around them intensified, and the sound of the gong resounding three times signaled that the "Meeting of Dragons" event was about to begin."The Dragon Meeting is about to begin!" whispered Ouyang Fai enthusiastically, his voice almost drowned out by the noise.Amidst the hustle and bustle, the sound of heavy, echoing horse hooves began to sound from the direction of the imperial palace. The sound grew closer, distracting everyone's attention.When the anticipated figure appeared, there was a moment of silence, only to be broken by the crowd's amazement.A war knight clad in silver armor, which shone in the sunlight, appeared gallantly on a pure white horse like snow.The horse's steps were slow but steady, adding an aura of majesty to the scene. The horse, more surprisingly, had wide wings that looked shiny, adding a magical and mysterious feel to the whole appearance."Suiji Ma!" "Sembrani Horse!" shouted several people in the crowd, their voices full of admi

  • Surprise after surprise.

    Eadric Rong watched the man standing in the center of the crowd with a sharp gaze. The man looked majestic and imposing, surrounded by Golden Sword Sect disciples marching in a respectful manner.Amidst the echoing cheers and shouts from the audience, Eadric Rong remained calm, unperturbed by the crowd around him. The sounds of applause and cheers praising the Golden Sword Sect blended together, creating a very festive atmosphere on the field."Is he the so-called Leader Shen Yutian, the leader of the Golden Sword Sect?" asked Eadric Rong inwardly, his sharp eyes scrutinizing every detail of the man's appearance curiously.Shen Yutian stood in an authoritative manner among his disciples, wearing robes that seemed to glow with a golden color under the light of the crescent moon.The robe, though similar in design to the Taoist Priest's clothing, was made of fine silk that drifted gently around his body, adding a sense of luxury.His hair was neatly combed up, forming a bun that was hel

    In the invited guests' quarters of the Jin Shuang Imperial court, the atmosphere was suddenly tense as the Black Shadow Sect Leader, Gong Fang, appeared. The oppressive aura he spread pervaded the air, making everyone present feel a tense pressure.Everyone's gaze was instantly lowered, crushed by his dominant presence.However, the oppressive aura soon faded.Suddenly, a well-dressed man in a dark blue velvet robe appeared with a confident stride."Xue Hua Academy," "Isn't that martial arts academy leader Xue Hua?"Whispers ensued, and all the spotlight instantly moved to the newly arrived figure, who was called from Xue Hua Academy.Apparently, the appearance of this newly arrived figure, although not much different in age from Gong Fang, but his young-looking face, like a young man in his twenties, exudes an alluring charisma.His dramatic appearance caught everyone's attention.As a newcomer to the Jin Shuang Empire, Eadric Rong was clearly confused by the names of the night's cel

  • Arriving at Capital.

    Eadric Rong made the long journey on foot to Xuefeng Du Town, spending nearly two months on the winding, challenging roads.He deliberately chose the grueling overland journey, using every opportunity to practice the Ferris Wheel Sword Art and meditate in an attempt to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level.However, no matter how hard he tried, every attempt ended in vain, as if there was an invisible wall blocking his progress."I really need to get Zhen Long Pills to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level," Eadric Rong muttered to himself as he stood before the East gate of Xuefeng Du City.The towering city fortress, painted in a faded gray-white color, stood firmly in front of him. The road above the fort was lined with soldiers on patrol, creating a haunting atmosphere but at the same time providing a sense of security for the townspeople.One of the soldiers guarding the entrance, a man with a hard face and a sharp gaze, glanced at Eadric Rong."Daozhang,
