Chapter 621: Adventurer Union! (1/2)
Normal training was conducted during the day, and at night, An Yue handled the affairs assigned to him under Bai Xiaofei’s guidance. The two had only about five hours a day to rest, but fortunately, they had Leng Liushuang’s energizing meals to keep them from collapsing.
The hard work wasn’t in vain as An Yue and A’Tao both made obvious progress. In just over half a month, An Yue broke through from the Mastery Rank to become a Proficient Rank puppet master, while A’Tao leaped from an ordinary person to a qualified martial artist! Devouring the Heaven and Earth was simply a cheat for beginner cultivation, especially with enough food to provide the energy required.
The two’s progress was inseparable from the effort they put in. Meanwhile, the remaining three princes didn’t train as hard. Bai Xiaofei had seen them and their masters going in and out of certain places more than once.
Of course, they didn’t do this purely for the sake of playing around. The four princes stood on the same starting line after An Bang Ting was abdicated, and at a time like this, the support of the court ministers was very important. The other three princes spent most of their time on this and had forgotten about training. For them, the temptation of the throne was far greater than being a powerful expert.
To this, Bai Xiaofei made no comment. The only thing he cared about was getting An Yue to the peak of the Proficient Rank before the one-month deadline!
After various past experiences, Bai Xiaofei knew full well the importance of strength better than anyone else. There was only one throne, and he couldn’t guarantee that he could make An Yue the new emperor, but with enough strength, An Yue would be able to live a safe life after he left. This was the ultimate goal.
Bai Xiaofei, however, didn’t take a laissez-faire attitude either. An Yue didn’t have any free time, but he did. Therefore, despite not being as active as the other three parties, Bai Xiaofei didn’t sit around doing nothing.
Using more than half a month, Bai Xiaofei captured someone – the newly promoted Royal Guard commander!
In addition to this person, Bai Xiaofei had contacted every person of high prestige in the Royal Guards. Because he got their previous leader fired and once beat up their members, this went particularly smooth.
There was no group that was involved in violence who didn’t respect power, and Bai Xiaofei represented the absolute top combat power in Tranquil!
“What are we doing here?” Following Bai Xiaofei, Leng Liuying frowned slightly.
“I heard they’ve just gained a number of high-grade pills and today is the day of their auction. We don’t have many pills left, and this can’t compare to Starnet where we can get supplements at any time, so I thought that we’d better not miss this rare opportunity,” Bai Xiaofei explained with a smile, but this didn’t satisfy Leng Liuying.
“When can you accompany us wholeheartedly for a period of time? When we graduate, you won’t be able to even see us even if you want to!” Leng Liuying snorted as she stared straight at him.
“Alright my little ancestor. I’ll give you guys three whole days after the matter with Tranquil is completely handled, how about that?” Bai Xiaofei smiled wryly as he chickened out.
As displeased as she was, Leng Liuying didn’t press him again.
“Come, come! I present to you: grade-four Bone Healing Pills, three bottles with five pills in each. I don’t have to tell you what the effect is, right?! The bottles are auctioned separately. The starting price is 100 gold coins per bottle!”
“250!”
