Chapter 5: Battle Spirit Pill!
Chapter 5
The next morning, Xiao Ze came out of his room, intending to go to the Mittel Auction House.
To obtain a high-level Xuan-rank fighting skill for Xiao Yan, it must be obtained through an auction, which requires money.
He didn't have many gold coins on him, so Xiao Ze planned to go to the Mittel Auction House first to buy some medicinal materials for refining pills.
They refine pills and auction them off; once they've raised enough gold coins, they bid on martial arts duels.
Just as Xiao Ze was about to leave, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.
[The system has detected that the host needs to refine a Battle Spirit Pill.]
[The system has distributed the necessary medicinal materials for the Battle Spirit Pill. Please check your inventory.]
[The medicinal herbs have been delivered to your system inventory; you can refine them at any time.]
Xiao Ze was immediately delighted when he saw the system notification.
The system was indeed very helpful, even preparing the medicinal herbs for him.
Xiao Ze snapped out of his thoughts and turned back to his room.
He sat down cross-legged, took out medicinal herbs from his system backpack, and placed them one by one in front of him, emitting a faint glow.
Xiao Ze raised his hand, activated the fighting spirit within his body, and a ball of flame condensed in his palm.
He threw a medicinal herb into the flames, and the herb slowly melted under the heat of the flames, turning into a liquid.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Ze suddenly withdrew the flames in his hand.
A pill floated in mid-air, perfectly round, emitting a faint glow.
The Spirit-Strengthening Pill has been successfully refined.
Xiao Ze reached out and grabbed the pill in his hand.
He looked at the Spirit-Boosting Pill in his hand, feeling satisfied.
The sixth-grade pill, the Battle Spirit Pill, can help Battle Spirit experts break through their bottlenecks. It would definitely fetch a good price at auction.
Xiao Ze put the Douling Pill into his system inventory and was about to get up when he heard footsteps outside the door.
He frowned slightly. Who would come to him so early?
He walked over and opened the door; Xiao Xun'er was standing outside.
She wore a long cyan dress, and her cool face showed a hint of worry.
"Brother Xiao Ze," Xiao Xun'er said.
"Xun'er?" Xiao Ze looked at her. "Did you come so early?"
"I was still a little worried about Brother Xiao Ze after what happened yesterday, so I came to check on him," Xiao Xun'er said.
Xiao Ze was somewhat moved upon hearing this.
"I'm fine," Xiao Ze said.
Xiao Xun'er was about to speak when she suddenly paused.
She smelled a strong medicinal fragrance wafting from Xiao Ze's room.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Why is there such a strong medicinal smell in Xiao Ze's room?
This medicinal fragrance doesn't seem to come from ordinary pills; it must be from a pill of at least grade five.
Xiao Xun'er looked at Xiao Ze with curiosity, wondering why there should be the scent of these pills around her brother Xiao Ze.
"Brother Xiao Ze, in your room..." Xiao Xun'er asked.
"Oh, I just refined a pill," Xiao Ze said.
Xiao Xun'er was shocked upon hearing this.
Refining pills? Brother Xiao Ze can refine pills?
"Brother Xiao Ze, when did you learn how to refine pills?" Xiao Xun'er asked.
Xiao Ze didn't answer, he just smiled.
Xiao Xun'er looked at him, curious but not pressing for more information.
"Brother Xiao Ze, I came here today because I want to give you something," Xiao Xun'er said.
She reached out and handed a book to Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze took it and saw that it was the Xuan-rank high-level cultivation technique, Qingyuan Gong.
Somewhat surprised, high-level Xuan-rank cultivation techniques were rare items in Wutan City. The Xiao family's cultivation techniques were only mid-level Xuan-rank, yet Xiao Xun'er used a high-level Xuan-rank technique right away.
"Xun'er, this is too precious," Xiao Ze said.
"Brother Xiao Ze, please take it," Xiao Xun'er said. "This cultivation technique is useless to me, so I'll give it to Brother Xiao Ze. It will be helpful for your cultivation."
Looking at her, Xiao Ze sighed inwardly. He knew that Xiao Xun'er's identity was not simple, so it was normal for her to be generous.
"Thank you, Xun'er," Xiao Ze said.
"Brother Xiao Ze, you don't need to be so polite," Xiao Xun'er said.
She looked at Xiao Ze and a smile appeared on her face.
"Brother Xiao Ze, please continue your cultivation. I'm heading back now."
After saying that, Xiao Xun'er turned and left.
Xiao Ze watched her retreating figure and put away his cultivation technique.
The advanced Xuan-rank cultivation technique is indeed helpful to his current strength. A nine-star Grand Dou Master can cultivate much faster with the help of an advanced Xuan-rank technique. However, he has more important things to do now.
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he closed the door and walked towards the Xiao family's gate.
A few hours later, Xiao Ze left the Xiao family and arrived on the streets of Wutan City.
The Mittel Auction House is located in the heart of Utan, the most bustling area of the city.
I walked to the entrance of the auction house and looked up.
The words "Mitter Auction House" stood out prominently in the sunlight.
Two guards stood at the entrance, both of whom were at the level of fighters.
As soon as I entered, a maid immediately came to greet me.
"Young master, how can I help you?"
Xiao Ze glanced at her.
"I want to see Consort Ya."
The maid was taken aback by what she heard.
"Does the young master know Miss Ya Fei?"
"I don't know her," Xiao Ze said. "I have something to auction and I need to talk to her about it."
The maid looked Xiao Ze up and down.
Many people come to the Mittel Auction House to auction items, but few ask to see Ya Fei right away. Ya Fei is the chief auctioneer of the Mittel Auction House, and not just anyone can meet her.
"Please wait a moment, young master, while I go and inform him," the maid said.
Xiao Ze nodded, and the maid turned and walked inside.
Standing in the lobby, watching the people coming and going around me.
The Mittel Auction House truly lives up to its reputation as the largest auction house in Utan City. The hall alone is quite impressive, and there is a constant stream of people coming to bid and buy things, including many powerful individuals.
After a while, the maid returned.
"Young Master Yafei invites you in."
Xiao Ze followed the maid through a corridor and arrived at the door of a private room.
The maid pushed open the door, and Xiao Ze went inside.
The private room was exquisitely decorated, with a tea table, a few chairs, and several calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.
A woman sat behind a coffee table, holding a cup of tea in her hand.
She was wearing a long red dress, with a beautiful face and charming temperament; she was Ya Fei, the chief auctioneer of the Mittel auction house.
When Ya Fei saw Xiao Ze enter, she put down her teacup and stood up.
"Young Master Xiao Ze, please have a seat," Ya Fei said.
Xiao Ze sat down in the chair.
Ya Fei looked at him with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
"I heard from the maid that Young Master Xiao Ze has something to auction off?" Consort Ya asked.
"Yes," Xiao Ze said.
"I wonder what's going to be auctioned off?" Ya Fei asked.
Xiao Ze took out the Fighting Spirit Pill from his system inventory and placed it on the coffee table.
Ya Fei's gaze fell on the pill, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She picked up the pill and examined it carefully.
"This is..." Ya Fei's voice trembled slightly.
"The Spirit-Fighting Pill," Xiao Ze said.
Upon hearing this, Ya Fei's expression changed.
The Battle Spirit Pill is a sixth-grade pill. After taking it, a Battle Spirit expert can break through to Battle King. This level of pill is extremely rare in the entire Jia Ma Empire.
"Are you sure this is a Spirit-Fighting Pill?" Ya Fei asked.
"Miss Yafei can have it appraised," Xiao Ze said.
Ya Fei looked at the pill in her hand, took a deep breath, and looked up at Xiao Ze.
"How would you like to proceed with the auction, young master?"
"The highest bidder wins," Xiao Ze said.
Ya Fei nodded.
"Don't worry, young master, this Battle Spirit Pill will definitely fetch a fair price when handed over to the Mittel Auction House."
Xiao Ze stood up.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Yafei."
"Take care," Ya Fei said.
Xiao Ze turned and left the private room, walking out of the Mittel Auction House.
Ya Fei sat in the private room, looking at the Fighting Spirit Pill in her hand, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.
