Chapter 319: Reselling
Elixir that can advance one's level?
Ye Fei raised her delicate eyebrows slightly. Could it be the pills she had refined and handed over to the Pill Association for sale?
However, it could also be from another alchemist...
With the vendor's shout and the gimmick of it being a pill that could help cultivators advance in their cultivation level, a lot of students were successfully attracted to join the fun.
"Shall we go take a look together?" Seeing that Ye Fei seemed very interested, Huang Rongyu smiled and invited her.
Ye Fei nodded: "Let's go take a look."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the stall owner took out a snow-white porcelain bottle and held it up for everyone to see: "Come and see, everyone! This pill is extraordinary. It has been evaluated and certified by the Lingyun Kingdom Pill Association. It is only a second-grade pill, but it can be used to advance a cultivator's level!"
"What? Only Rank 2?"
"Really? The Mind-Concentrating Pill doesn't have such miraculous effects... This stall owner is just bragging!"
"But he said this elixir had been evaluated by the Pill Association..."
"Dare you tell me who the alchemist who refined this pill is?"
"Shopkeeper, how much are these pills for?"
Students gathered in droves, some half-believing, some scoffing, and others questioning who the alchemist who concocted the pills really was.
Ye Fei frowned, somewhat speechless, and rubbed her forehead.
The Grade Two Concentration Pill possesses the miraculous effect of advancing one's level—isn't this the very pill she refined herself?!
Huang Rongyu glanced at Ye Fei, who looked dejected, and then, as if realizing something, immediately lowered her voice and said, "The thing that the stall owner was selling, could it be something you refined...?"
"Yes." Ye Fei helplessly spread her hands.
Huang Rongyu raised an eyebrow: "So this stall owner is reselling your pills?"
Ye Fei said expressionlessly, "The pills that have just been put on the shelves are not expensive, and everyone can afford them. Once people discover the hidden secrets in the pills, the price will skyrocket. Those who are lucky enough to buy the pills at a low price will naturally want to take this opportunity to make a fortune—this stall owner should be one of the first people to buy the pills."
While the two were talking, the auction for the Concentration Pill had already begun, and the price had risen to 100,000 gold coins.
Just then, a clear female voice rang out: "I bid 110,000 gold coins."
Everyone turned their attention to the speaker, a young girl dressed in purple with her face veiled in white.
Ye Fei narrowed her eyes—it was Ye Ning.
The stall owner exclaimed excitedly, "This young lady has offered 110,000 gold coins! Is anyone willing to offer a higher price?"
Most of the students present were from ordinary families; how could they possibly have enough savings to compete with Ye Ning, a rich heiress, for the elixir?
And so, Ye Ning successfully bid for the Mind-Concentrating Pill.
"Ye Ning, you're so lucky!" Yi Yingying, a member of the team, looked at Ye Ning with envy.
Ye Ning paid the stall owner and smiled, "I've just reached the threshold of advancement, and this pill will be of great help to me."
"That's wonderful, I also want to have such a magical pill..." Yi Yingying's eyes were full of longing.
Ye Ning smiled without saying a word, but a hint of contempt flashed in her eyes.
A poor wretch like you wants to buy elixirs? Don't you even look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are!
"What a pity." Ye Fei watched Ye Ning and her group turn and leave, a half-smile playing on her lips.
"What's a pity?" Xie Qingui, who was standing to the side, asked after hearing her say that.
Ye Fei shook her head: "It's nothing, let's keep going."
