Chapter 1063
Shopkeeper Xie’s eyes began to shine, he chuckled and looked at Qin Yun. He has realized that he picked up a great treasure, a young talented Inscription Master with very high level of capability.
“Shopkeeper Xie, I don’t need the reward for restoring this sword. Just please think of a way to quickly let us become the students of Dark Assembly in Great Ancient College.” Qin Yun is now convinced that the Great Ancient College is a good enough place that can let him enter the Nether Sect.
Shopkeeper Xie thought for a bit and said : “Alright, I will report this matter to the boss!”
“Many thanks shopkeeper Xie.” Qin Yun said with smile.
“Of course, we will have to wait for boss to come.” shopkeeper Xie carefully inspected the sword and asked : “Can this sword be sold again?”
“Naturally! But the sword was originally made with low quality materials, so when facing powerful Half Immortals or equal grade magic tools, it is very weak!” Qin Yun said.
“Ok then let’s wait for boss, if your discussion is successful, you brother and sister will be the students of the college. You will no longer have to be sales personnel.” shopkeeper Xie nodded with smile and then asked : “Xiao Qin, who is your master?”
“I am self taught!” Qin Yun said.
Shopkeeper Xie looked at Qin Yun in disbelief but he did not ask anything further. Then he brought Qin Yun and Gu Qiufei to the upstairs of the shop. There are two rooms and a small hall here, they have been allowed to stay here temporarily.
After shopkeeper Xie settled them and left, Gu Qiufei said in excitement : “Big brother, you are so awesome! I did not expect you to be an Inscription Master!”
“Xiao Fei, after entering the college, you will have to study hard.” Qin Yun said with smile.
“Mmm. I will give it my best!” Gu Qiufei said with a very sweet smile on her face.
“Xiao Fei, how much do you know about this Great Ancient College? Can I enter Nether Sect from this college?” Qin Yun is now very curious about the Great Ancient College.
“Nether Sect and other major sects come to this college to recruit talented disciples from time to time. Moreover, many students in the college are sons or grandsons of people from Nether Sect.” Gu Qiufei hastily said : “Because of the special circumstance of Great Ancient Sect, disciples related to three major factions continuously compete and fight against each other in the college.”
“It is also very difficult to enter the Great Ancient College, not unless you have a friend who can recommend you. Even having a lot of star coins won’t help. I heard that just one year’s tuition fee is over 100 million star coins! Truly extravagant!” Gu Qiufei said again.
They will earn only 5000 per month working as sales personnel. Gu Qiufei also said that when she worked in the Scarlet Spirit City before, she used to obtained about 1000 per month, only the major cities pay more salary than that. Naturally since she is a strong peak Martial Emperor, she chose to become hunter to make money faster. Judging by these information, Qin Yun has now more or less some understanding of the value of star coins.
“How much do King quality Regent Origin Stones sell for?” Qin Yun asked.
All the factions that are in charge of making star coins must have agreement as to how many they can make each year. Qin Yun suspects that Holy Assembly and Dark Assembly has some kind of secret dealing.
“If we sell to illegal money launderers, then one King quality Regent Origin Stone can be sold for 5 million star coins. But if we want to buy… 20-30 million per piece! I have never bought one because common populace don’t have the qualification to buy them. Our clan spent so many King quality Regent Origin Stones for us brother and sister yet now this is what happened….” Gu Qiufei lightly sighed.
“Your clan must be very prosperous!” Qin Yun said.
“Our clan has more than ten 6th tribulation Half Immortals! They go out to kill beasts from time to time and over the years, we have accumulated many King quality Regent Origin Stones bit by bit. Since we have been expelled by Scarlet Spirit Sect, we would surely be punished if we went back.” Gu Qiufei said.
Qin Yun really wants to obtain a Regent Origin Stone from Ancient Domain to test what is different.
“Xiao Fei, what do you mainly do with Regent Origin Stones? Don’t people of Ancient Domain cultivate Star power?” Qin Yun curiously asked.
“Star Power is excessively single pointed, it is not sufficiently powerful! And inside the Regent Origin Stones, there are nine types of very powerful energy. However, majority of the people can only absorb 4 or 5 types of energy because they only have 4 or 5 spirit veins. I have seven spirit veins.” Gu Qiufei said.
Qin Yun is shocked in his heart because people of the Ancient Domain just have too many spirit veins! Even Gu Qiufei who has seven spirit veins is just small character. If she were to be placed inside the Spirit Desolate, she would be an unprecedented talent.
“Are there many people with nine spirit veins?” Qin Yun asked.
“Not too many.. all of those who have nine spirit veins, are core disciples of every major factions and are very carefully cultivated. As for those who have eight spirit veins.. they are same as people with seven spirit veins. Although there are not many, there are also not few, they are neither common nor rare. If they don’t possess outstanding talent, they don’t get enough resources.” Gu Qiufei talked up to this point with some difficulty : “I have seven spirit veins in vain, I don’t have any other good points, so I am very mediocre.”
“Xiao Fei, what did you originally want to do?” Qin Yun asked.
“I.. I originally wanted to become a Medicinal Pill Master. But I don’t have flame attribute martial spirit, my martial spirit is a black earth martial spirit! I thought I would be able to learn some skills to condense and control fire but in the end I did not learn anything!” Gu Qiufei said with sigh.
“Earth martial spirit is also very good! You can raise medicinal plants!” Qin Yun said.
“Mmm. I am very fond of all kind of flowers and plants. When I was in Scarlet Spirit Sect, I raised many beautiful flowers!” Gu Qiufei said with a very proud smile.
“Xiao Fei, wait until we become students of Great Ancient College, then I will think of a way to get you a fire martial spirit!” Qin Yun said with smile.
“Ahh! That is something only Soul Refiners can do! Also it is very expensive to hire the service of a Soul Refiner.. moreover I will still have to buy a fire martial spirit, even my clan is unable to pay the extravagant price for a martial spirit!” Gu Qiufei shook her head and said : “Big brother, you don’t need to worry about me. You are helping me enter Great Ancient College, I am already very grateful to you.”
Qin Yun did not expect that Soul Refiners would be so rare in Ancient Domain.
Suddenly shopkeeper Xie arrived and said : “Xiao Qin, Xiao Fei, boss has sent someone.”
Qin Yun said with frown : “He did not come personally?”
Shopkeeper Xie said : “Boss is very busy, so he sent someone in his place. This man is a student of the college named Lu Hanchen.”
Looking at shopkeeper Xie’s face Qin Yun can already guess that this Lu Hanchen is not a well behaved person.
“It seems like your boss is not a very meticulous person about this kind of matter, what a waste!” Qin Yun shook his head. Gu Qiufei is also very disappointed because she thought that she would be able to enter Great Ancient College very soon.
At this time a man wearing luxurious golden clothes arrived, his expression is filled with disdain as he said : “I am sent by the boss, call me uncle Lu! Are you the one who can restore magic tools?”
“Yes.” Qin Yun curtly replied.
“Alright, then restore magic tools here for a hundred years and boss will fulfill your request!” Lu Hanchen said with increasingly arrogant attitude.
“Forget it!” Qin Yun directly refused.
“What are you looking for?” Lu Hanchen asked in angry voice.
“You will immediately help us enter Great Ancient College and pay the tuition fee! When I have extra time, I will help you restore magic tools!” Qin Yun said.
“Ha ha ha…” Lu Hanchen burst into laughter and said with mockery : “Ignorant thing, do you know that not only you will need several hundred King quality Regent Origin Stones to enter the Great Ancient College but will also need recommendation from a student?”
“Yes and that is why it is a pity that we can not cooperate.” Qin Yun don’t want to talk too much because he knows that this Lu Hanchen has not actually come to discuss.
“Then scram out of of here! Shameless trash!” Lu Hanchen said with sneer.
“Big brother, let’s leave!” Gu Qiufei is very angry, she quickly pulled Qin Yun to leave the shop. Neither her, not Qin Yun thought that Dark Assembly would have this kind of ignorant student in the college.
Shopkeeper Xie is not a blind person, he hastily ran out of the shop and handed over a sealed letter to Qin Yun, then said : “Xiao Qin, there is a shop called Secluded Phoenix Pavilion here. You go there and try your luck. My friend works there, here is my letter of recommendation.”
Qin Yun thanked him and left towards Secluded Phoenix Pavilion. Soon enough they arrived at that shop, it is a very big and very good looking shop. Looking at the shop, Gu Qiufei became very nervous thinking whether or not this shop would accept them. After entering the shop, they saw a chubby middle aged woman in the reception desk.
“Two friends, are you looking for something?” the chubby middle aged woman asked with smile.
“Elder sister, we are looking for job. We have recommendation letter from shopkeeper Xie.” Gu Qiufei said with a sweet sounding voice, her face showed a sweet smile as she handed over the sealed letter.
The chubby middle aged woman looked at the letter and said with nod : “It is indeed written by shopkeeper Xie. He wrote that you brother and sister are going through hard time and you are very hard workers. He asked you to come here to find job!”
Qin Yun looked around and saw that this shop also sell magic tools but it is very different from the previous shop because all of the magic tools here are very old.
Gu Qiufei nodded and said : “Elder sister, we are very hard working and can endure hardship, I hope that elder sister can accept us!”
At this time Lu Hanchen and a group of luxurious clothed men arrived in the shop. Lu Hanchen saw Qin Yun and Gu Qiufei and said with sneer : “I kicked you two trash out of that store and you came here to look for work?”
Then he began describing how he graced Qin Yun and Gu Qiufei with his presence after hearing shopkeeper Xie claiming that Qin Yun can restore Dao tools but then Qin Yun ignorantly demanded his help to enter Great Ancient College. He and his companions began mocking and insulting Qin Yun and Gu Qiufei.
