The Jiangzhong Lingneng Market is much larger than I had imagined before sinking.

After entering the dragon's mouth, there was an infinitely vast world inside, with all kinds of shops and buildings on display. What made Shen Qian feel the atmosphere of a great city even more was the number of powerful people here.

Having only walked one street, Shen Qian sensed at least three familiar and oppressive auras.

Mountains and seas!

The density of martial artists here is nearly one per hundred meters.

This doesn't even include those old silver coins who deliberately concealed their auras or top-tier powerhouses who couldn't be sensed before sinking in.

Although the market was large, fortunately, Wan Ning, who had a clear sense of direction, led the way. In about an hour, Shen Qian had bought all the martial arts books and regular equipment he needed for his first year of university in the East District Market, which was enough to make anyone dizzy.

It's not that I didn't want to buy all four years' worth of books before I went to the capital, but the development of martial arts is far from over. Books are updated every year, so there's no point in buying all four years' worth in advance.

After exploring the eastern district, we walked back to the intersection. Chen Qian looked at the road signs and suddenly stopped.

"Mr. Shen, what's wrong?"

Wan Ning asked in confusion.

"I think it's still a while before five o'clock, let's go for a stroll in the South District first."

Shen Qian's decision was purely on a whim, because the Southern District mainly sold monsters, and he had never seen what a tamed monster looked like.

Wan Ning naturally had no objections, so the three of them changed direction and headed towards the South District.

"roar!"

"Gurgle, gurgle!"

The cacophony of sounds was actually the roars of various monsters.

Shen Qian glanced around and saw that the street looked much like the flower and bird market in Jingcheng, except that the cages contained all sorts of strangely shaped monsters that still retained their ferocious features.

Xun Tu, Mo Ha, Yin Ran...

As he walked along the path before sinking, he encountered mostly monsters below the W-level, which left him somewhat disappointed.

The Martial Arts University allows students to bring a pet monster. Shen Qian had thought of this just now, which is why he had this idea. The martial arts career is lonely, and being able to keep a monster as a pet can be a good way to relax.

Having already witnessed what the most powerful demonic beasts looked like, Shen Qian naturally found these "ordinary ones" rather unappealing.

Even the prized possession of a shop at the end of the street, a Di Yang with an R-level growth rate, failed to tempt Shen Qian.

R-rank... is already close to the level of mountains and seas.

Wan Ning, sensing something, glanced at Dao Jiu, who was still engrossed in eating skewers, with a strange expression. She thought to herself, "Shen Qian wouldn't want to buy a monster of the Mountain and Sea level, would he?"

Dao Jiu noticed Wan Ning's gaze and looked up, somewhat puzzled. "Why are you looking at me?"

"Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing." Wan Ning quickly shook her head.

"Wan Ning, what is this arena? Is it a place to watch monsters fight?" Shen Qian suddenly stopped in front of a huge building.

"No, this is also a place that sells demonic beasts, but... the method is a bit special." Wan Ning didn't know how to explain for a moment.

"Oh?" Shen Qian had a gut feeling that there might be something he wanted here, because he sensed something unusual. So he became interested. "Let's go in and take a look."
