Li Yuanqing turned around and sized up the young man behind him.

He smiled very happily and looked at Li Yuanqing to continue asking, “Young Master, I can tell at a glance that you’re from a rich family. Now that there’s such a good opportunity to learn alchemy, it’s much better than working hard yourself. I’m afraid you can still save a lot of money.”

Li Yuanqing turned to look at the sign beside him.

“It’s indeed a very good opportunity. I heard that Boss Zhao of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce is a very good person. He shouldn’t be lying. Why don’t you give it a try?”

Zhao Tianji smiled very officially and said, “Young Master, can’t you tell? I’m from the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce. Our boss assigned me a mission. I’m here to recommend it to the young masters who pass by. Everyone, don’t miss such a good opportunity.”

Li Yuanqing was immediately interested when he heard this. He had yet to hear Zhao Tai’an tell him about any recommendations. According to Zhao Tai’an, he had arranged for some publicity signs and did not do anything else.

This was because Li Yuanqing had once instructed them to keep everything simple and not make things too troublesome.

Therefore, Zhao Tai’an did it in the simplest way. Why did a salesman suddenly appear?

Li Yuanqing looked at the so-called salesman with interest. “So you’re saying Boss Zhao sent you out to explain the benefits of this academy to someone like me, right?”

“This young master looks like a smart person. You understood everything with just a few words. That’s right, it’s such a situation. Actually, many people don’t know much about such things like the cultivator academy. This concept is also a very novel one. It was only released recently. It’s normal for everyone to find it very refreshing.”

“Then I wonder if you can tell me the profundity of this?”

Zhao Tianji’s eyes flickered slightly, and a very strange smile appeared on his lips. He had finally tricked his first prey.

“My job is to explain the mysteries of these things to you. I’m naturally happy to tell you this, but it’s not convenient to do so here. Moreover, I’m afraid it’s a little too cumbersome to say such things. Young Master, please follow me to a more secluded place to discuss it.”

......

Li Yuanqing followed him without hesitation. He pretended to be an unguarded little rabbit, making Zhao Tianji feel smug. His idea of earning money had succeeded very quickly. It was really not bad.

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble you, Young Master.”

“That’s easy. These are all my jobs. It’s not a problem. I want to thank you for your support. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have opened for business today.”

Zhao Tianji’s words were true. He slowly turned around and led Li Yuanqing into a small alley.

The two of them walked left and right in the alley for a long time before finally arriving at a quiet place far away from the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce.

This was a small courtyard. It did not look special, and it was very quiet, and the overall style was very old. It looked like it had some history. The decorations in the small courtyard were very normal. The only thing that could be connected to their description was the small sign hanging at the door.

This sign said that it was the reception area of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce Academy.

This sign was very simple at a glance. There was no design at all. It was just casually placed there, as if it was made for people to see.

Li Yuanqing acted as if he did not see through the profundity and foolishly followed them in.

Zhao Tianji heaved a deep sigh of relief. Initially, he was still thinking that his third brother was too careless. Such a simple token could be seen through easily. However, he did not expect the young master in front of him to be so stupid. Their flaws were already so obvious, but he did not react at all.

Zhao Tianji even wondered if he could make a profit off of this guy. How did such a stupid person survive in the Catacombs? He did not look particularly safe. Although Li Yuanqing looked so glamorous, it was hard to say that he was really useless.

In the end, the two of them successfully walked into the small courtyard and placed a very simple table in the courtyard.

However, the overall design of this table was much better than the signboard outside. At least, there were no obvious flaws. Instead, it could be seen that it was something that had been carefully made.

Behind the table sat a thin man. The man was leisurely reading a document. When he looked up and saw the two of them walk in, the man stood up slightly and welcomed them.

“Our gains today are not bad. We actually found a student. Then we should be able to wrap up today. We’re quite lucky.”

The third brother greeted Zhao Tianji with a smile, but Zhao Tianji did not have a good expression on his face. After glaring at him, he stood aside and gave the stage to him.

The third brother coughed lightly and returned the look. His gaze seemed to be saying, “Although my thing is very simple and you look down on me, didn’t I still trick a living person into it? There will be a good show for you later.”

After the two of them had a simple conversation, Li Yuanqing sat down at the table in front of him very cooperatively. He was really like a little white rabbit who was inexperienced in the world.

The third brother turned around and landed in front of the table. He sized up Li Yuanqing and coughed lightly. He said, “I wonder what you are interested in, Young Master. Is it alchemy, weapon refinement, or the Dao of array formations? Our Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce’s academy has classes, and the price is very affordable and fair. You can get the first place with just a thousand spirit stones. You have to know that this spot is very precious. You can’t delay it.”

The third brother was quite anxious and said the price immediately. Zhao Tianji coughed lightly and glared at him. He smiled and explained to Li Yuanqing, “Young Master, don’t be anxious. You can listen to his introduction of the details before making a decision. Actually, our price is very reasonable. Moreover, do you know what the registration fee of a thousand spirit stones means to an alchemist? It’s just the price of a set of materials.”

The third brother immediately said, “Don’t say that. What material can be sold so cheap in this world? You can’t even buy a thousand-year-old Dragon Tongue Flower with a thousand spirit stones.”

Li Yuanqing pretended not to know anything. He looked at the two of them and asked, “What does that thousand spirit stones contain? Does it include all the fees? If it does, I think it’s quite worth it. It might be worth signing up. However, if there are other charges later, I’ll have to think about it again.”

The third brother came up and hugged Li Yuanqing’s shoulder. He patted his chest and promised Li Yuanqing, “Brother, don’t you trust me? A thousand spirit stones is already so much money. I definitely won’t ask you for more in the future. Don’t worry. I guarantee you that I won’t charge you a single cent more!”

Li Yuanqing heaved a long sigh of relief and said with a smile, “I’ve always wanted to become an alchemist, but I didn’t have any good opportunities. If I can really become an alchemist, I’m willing to sign up now.”

“Of course. As long as you come to our academy, everything will be a success. You will definitely not fail. Let me tell you this. As long as you place the spirit stones here, you will be an outstanding alchemy master a year later!”

The third brother swore solemnly. He was almost using his personality as a guarantee. If not for the time limit, he would have said a long string of lies.

Li Yuanqing took out a money bag without hesitation. There was nothing special in this money bag, but that was only his opinion. There were hundreds of thousands of spirit stones and many rare materials inside. These materials were rare no matter where they were.

He pretended to take out a ten-thousand-year-old snow ginseng in surprise and even put it in front of the two of them with an awkward smile. “Wait, I forgot where I put the spirit stones.”

The two brothers looked at the snow ginseng in his hand and were stunned. They had never seen such a rich person before. This kid came out of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce just now. He was so rich that he was almost the eldest son of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce. This was too terrifying.

“Little brother, it’s fine. Don’t be anxious. The two of us will wait here. Take it out when you’re done.”

“Thank you.”

Li Yuanqing searched for a long time and finally found a box. He opened the box, and inside was an excellent quality medium-grade spirit stone. The spirit stone emitted a bright light and kept shining, as if it was showing off its unique beauty.

Zhao Tianji and his third brother had been lying for so long. When had they ever seen such a treasure? Now that a bright medium-grade spirit stone was placed in front of them, the two of them were simply as anxious as a hundred claws scratching their hearts.

How good would it be if they could directly snatch this spirit stone and keep it for themselves?

Third Brother could not help but extend his palm. Unknowingly, the palm had arrived in front of Li Yuanqing. From the looks of it, he was about to grab him.

Li Yuanqing looked up at the two of them in embarrassment and asked, “I don’t have a thousand spirit stones on me, only this one medium-grade spirit stone. I wonder if you can help me exchange it?”

Third Brother could no longer hold back his impulse. He took the spirit stone and hurriedly said, “Little brother, look at what you’re saying. What relationship do we have? If you need it, I can definitely help you. Moreover, I have enough spirit stones. Wait a moment, I’ll exchange it for you.”

He directly stuffed the medium-grade spirit stone into his arms, not daring to let go no matter what. He had obtained a huge treasure, so he had to keep it in his arms and warm it up. He could not let it out for no reason.

Zhao Tianji glared at him from the side. He wanted to come up and snatch the spirit stone, but his third brother was unmoved. He firmly covered his chest, giving him no chance to take advantage of him.

While the two of them were arguing, Li Yuanqing watched from the side. It was really interesting to see the two of them arguing here.

After they argued for a while, the third brother suddenly slapped his head as if he had thought of something incredible. He turned to Li Yuanqing and said, “Little brother, I just remembered that our academy has a very powerful VIP service. You only need to add a little more tuition money to enter and you will be able to enjoy the top treatment and learn the top knowledge. This is a rare opportunity for you!”

“Really? How much do you need?”

The third brother glanced at Zhao Tianji at the side and replied, “I don’t remember the exact situation. We need to ask the headquarters and see how the price is set. We’ll come back and tell you after we ask. Wait here for a while. Is that okay?”

“It doesn’t matter. Go ahead. I’ll wait here.”

“Little brother, thank you so much. I don’t know what to say. Without you, I don’t know where we would have completed our mission today.”

After giving their instructions, they entered a small room one after another. After entering, they even closed the door of the room, as if they were afraid that others would hear their conversation.

“What a good opportunity. As long as we kill this brat, no one will discover that we did it. At that time, we will split such a perfect medium-grade spirit stone equally. Don’t you want it?”

The third brother’s eyes revealed a fierce expression as he looked at Zhao Tianji and suggested.

Zhao Tianji grabbed his hand and glared at him. “Are you crazy? We’re using the name of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce to deceive people here, yet you still dare to kill him. If the people of the Myriad Treasure Chamber of Commerce find out about this, the two of us will not be able to bear the consequences!”

The third brother flung his hand away and glared at him coldly. “How can you still think about that at a time like this? At most, we’ll kill him and go far away and never come back. No one will know that it was the two of us. Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten how much you need this medium-grade spirit stone now! With it, you can buy that material back. When the time comes, you’ll be able to advance to the next level. Will you still need to live a life of fear here?”
