Chapter 1095

(Unedited)

…

As the auction began, Xin Ja\'s eyes were opened at the amount of money the people of Ogden town has. He himself could be considered rich by having at least 50 low-quality Ki stones. But these people around him have hundreds and thousands of them and they are not afraid to spend it.

The question that lingers in his mind is… how were they able to earn such wealth? It was truly an eye-opener for him upon seeing the ability of these people to spend their money.

His attention was wrapped in the turn of events as two people looks at him with smiles on their faces. Qin Joming could not help but looks at his friend\'s rich reaction and expressions, while Liu Zhen is a bit curious on why this young man from the Xin family would be so clueless about the world and she could not help but relate him to the fool in the rumors.

It did not take long before a familiar bottle was presented to the auction stand. The bottle is filled with around 5 pills inside.

When the crowd saw the bottle, they all look in curiosity and began discussing animatedly amongst themselves. Upon seeing this, Manager Gao, the auctioneer showed a faint smile on his face. He knew that he was right to bring this bottle of pills in this auction.

His glance inadvertently shifted to the direction of Xin Ja\'s seat.

Before he could open his mouth, an elder from one of the private booths asked.

"Manager Gao… These things inside the small bottle… are these pills… from the ancient times?" he asked with a hint of doubt in his wizened eyes.

Everyone immediately gasped upon hearing those words. Ancient pills are already non-existence in the world after the downfall of the previous alchemist association after the war of the empires. Because the alchemists at that time were said to be one of the pillars supporting the Empire of Gong, they were targeted by the enemy empire and were obliterated first.

That was the start of the defeat of the Empire of Gong many years ago. They were only able to hold on after the Shens came out of their seclusion. But the alchemist association and their branches in the empire and its neighboring kingdom were destroyed. Except for some of their records and scrolls, everything else was wiped out.

And so, the empire adopted the other empire\'s potion-making to compensate for their lack of medicine capability. The empire then set up the new alchemist association and guilds which slowly flourished as time went by. And that was thousands of years ago…

And now, something that did not come out from thousands of years ago is back. So how could this not rile up the people in the auction house?

But others still have a skeptical view on this matter.

And so people began to discuss rowdily on the floor which made the auction house a bit lively at the moment.

This time, Manger Gao, upon seeing the commotion happening below him decided to explain.

"Haha… Senior alchemist Koi is correct… what we are going to auction next is called healing pills… according to my source, one pill is equivalent to a bottle of potion… And that is not all. Each pill is of… mid-grade…" Manager Gao said with a sly smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, everyone on the floor became ecstatic. How could they not know the impact of this thing in the alchemy world? If this thing would surface in bulk, then the alchemy world would surely change. They might even grasp back their glory days when the empire is considered as one of the most powerful empires on the continent.

The eyes of senior alchemist Koi are now glowing with desire. He truly wanted that bottle of pills for his own research.

"I will now set the price to…"

"1,000 Ki stones!" shouted Senior Alchemist Koi with agitation in his tone.

But how could the other forces back down on this? They too wanted to do their own research on the pills and how they are made, so they also began to place their bids.

"1,500!" another one shouted.

Manager Gao is a bit dumbfounded at this moment, but as a manager of a famous Auction House, his eyes have already seen too many of these kinds of things so he is able to quickly stabilize his emotion.

"2,000!"

"3,000!"

The bidding war began to heat up as people rise their bids one after another.

In fact, the pill itself does not equate to this value. What these people are buying right now is the possible future, the possible future that it would bring to their family and their clans. If they are able to crack the process of the pill, then they would stand hugely to gain from it.

When the bid has climbed up to 10,000 low-quality Ki stones… Senior Alchemist Koi could not stand it anymore and suddenly suggested something.

"Everyone! This is a rare item… I would suggest polling out resources together. Then we could do research on it so that we can figure out how it is made. That way we all can stand to gain from this." He suggested.

The other elders from inside their booth suddenly have a realization and nod their heads in agreement. This is because... they could not ask the auction house who the source of pills is. This is already common knowledge for them. 

When the others heard this, they all turned silent. They knew how rich the alchemist association is, and that they did not have to do this. So they all knew that senior alchemist Koi has something in his mind at this time.

"I agree with senior alchemist Koi! I will buy this bottle of pill and would like to ask the alchemist association to help us with the research then." The man who made the bid of 10,000 said with a humble curtsy.

The alchemist also nodded their heads from their booths. Since the two have decided on it, everyone in the area also nodded.

"I hope that the alchemist association would follow on their words, if not… then you cannot blame me for being merciless…" suddenly a young female voice echoed in the hall.

When the people heard this, their eyes darted to the booth where the beautiful veiled woman from the City of Alesia is seated.

"Alright… 10,000 Ki stones! Going once! Going twice! Sold!"

No matter what the commotion on the floor is having, three figures are rooted on their seat with disbelief in their gaze.

How could they not be dumbfounded? Xin Ja, Qing Joming, and Liu Zhen knew how those pills were created.

And it seems that the news is not yet leaked outside of the academy.

"It seems that some of the teachers are still greedily making some schemes in their hearts in the academy… They would not expect that you are going to sell those pills here… Hahaha…" Qin Joming said in a low voice.

"Little Ja, you should be careful from now on… This is going to be a huge headache for you…" Liu Zhen warned on the side.

"Cousin, don\'t ruin the atmosphere, okay? We got 10,000 Ki stones for crying out loud! That would be equal to… to around a year of my allowance…"Qing Joming grumbled.

When Xin Ja heard this, he was more speechless. He has not even had or seen 1 Ki stone before the age of 15. And now he already got 10,000 of them, how could he not feel conflicted?

He feels happy and worried at the same time.

Well, if worse comes to worst, he would not reveal other recipes and just make healing pills. He would just say that he accidentally found it on one of his journeys.

The pill was sold and two of them went to the alchemist association while the others went to the one who outbid everyone.

But no one is worried, because the alchemist association has already promised. If one should know, those old fogies at the alchemist association love their faces. They would not dare to go back on their words.

And so the bidding continues, but this time, everyone suddenly turned silent as they all saw five palm-sized crystal slabs that looks elegant and have masterful and futuristic craftsmanship. Whoever crafted such a thing could be considered as a master.

The five Mules are in different colors as if representing some of the elements. Red has an insignia of fire, and blue has an insignia of water, and so on.

This has already attracted the attention of the people as they solely desired to have one.

Not only are those things looking gorgeous, but they also contain a deeper mystery of space. And this is what made it more attractive to everyone.

Everyone scrutinized those things and many are already at the edge of their seats.

"Haha… The creator of those things… is jesting us… How could we destroy such craftsmanship, just to do research on them? This… this is too troublesome…" a man from one of the booths said with a chuckle.

"They look really nice and amazing… I want the silver one with the air element insignia… That truly represents me… I want to get that at all cost…" the veiled woman suddenly said with her beautiful eyes glued on one of the Mules.

"Yes, your highness…" replied the person beside her.
