He turned his head and looked down at the group, "I told you not to look down on others. Fane said to you that he could beat you in every way, and he definitely can."All of you only know how to use your mouth to insult others, saying we're from somewhere insignificant. If we were, then what do you amount to? You can't even compare to us…"Rudy's words were incredibly sharp. It angered the alchemists so much that they started to pant. Mark was in a bad mental state at that moment, but he immediately retorted, "What do you mean we can't compare? The brat might have some skill, but we aren't weak either. I can complete the test perfectly as well. At least a third of my fellow students behind me can pass the test perfectly as well!"As he said that, Mark found some confidence back. This time, it was Fane's turn to look at the group with a mocking smile, "A third? Aren't you too overconfident in your fellow students? There are twenty in total including you. You should be counting your luck
He deliberately brought up a topic, "This group won't let us escape their sights easily. If we leave their sights, they'll definitely go crazy…"After Rudy heard that, he was immediately pulled out of his pain. After all, that problem was even more pressing. He sighed as he said with concern, "What does that group want?! They've been trying to cause us trouble from the start. Could they really be planning on attacking us? However, Prosper City's laws state that we can't fight privately. If they really pull any moves, they'd just die!"Fane nodded. Various thoughts flashed in both of their eyes. In truth, he was still not sure at all, thanks to the lack of information. He had no way of telling what that group wanted as well.If they really planned on anything, they should not hide before they had full confidence in their plan. The group was quite kind to alert Fane the moment Fane arrived in the city. The more Fane thought about it, the more he felt like something was off. It felt
After Fane finished saying that, Rudy's lips twitched. He knew that what happened that day was complete because he could not keep his mouth shut back then. He felt incredibly bad about that.Back when Fane lectured him, Rudy was not exactly pleased about it. Yet, now it looked like he definitely deserved that scolding. If he had not pulled Grayson so impulsively, all of this would not have happened.Fane knew that Rudy was guilty about what happened, so Fane shook his head and said earnestly, "It's already too late to regret things. You just need to remember to think before you do anything in the future. Don't act on your emotions alone. All we can do now is respond to things as they come."It's like you said before, Prosper City prohibits fighting. They won't be able to attack us there, nor would they have the guts to. I want to wait and see if they slip up and reveal what they're planning to us…"Various questions were on Fane's mind at that moment. He suddenly felt like he did n
He had obviously been infuriated. Fane merely let out a light snort and retrieved his entry token from Mustard Seed and turned to look at Rudy, "The show's already over. There's no reason for us to stay in the plaza. Go pick out two people and get twenty thousand spirit crystals from them. Let's hurry up and enter the outer city."Rudy nodded and immediately ran over to pick out two warriors who wanted to enter Prosper City. There were many to choose from. The warriors that were resting outside the city numbered at least over ten thousand.From there, it was incredibly easy to pick out two that were suitable. After fifteen minutes, Fane held the twenty thousand spirit crystals he had earned and entered the outer city of Prosper City with Rudy and two other warriors.Prosper City was split into the outer city and the inner city. When he got the entry token for the outer city, all of Prosper City's rules went into his mind. Rather than the inner and outer cities, it was more like a ma
Rudy let out a laugh when he heard that, "They don't know anything about you at all. There's no way you would waste your time for something so petty."As the two of them talked, they saw Mark, Gent and the others entering the city. The group's eyes were wide as they entered, hurriedly looking for Fane among the crowd.They had thought that Fane would jump into the crowd the moment Fane entered the city, so they were all looking forward.Yet, Fane and Rudy had not walked further inside at all, and had instead headed to the more secluded city walls. Rudy looked on as the group struggled to find them.All of them started to panic, and he laughed as he pointed at them, "They're all in such a panic. What do you think they'll do if they still can't find us after a while?"Fane raised an eyebrow, "Who cares what they'll do? We won't deliberately hide ourselves. If we want to find out what's happening behind all this, we'll have to make them slip up."The more they do, the more obvious t
"The highest amount they can deal with has also been set at a hundred thousand spirit crystals. The middle-tier stalls are about ten square feet, and the limit of any transactions is set at two hundred thousand spirit crystals."The highest level stalls are those pavilions with their own tables and chairs towards the top. Anyone able to open up a stall there are definitely people with incredible backgrounds. There's also a limit to the deals that can be done in the high-tier stalls, but it's not an upper limit. Instead, there's a lower limit. Any transactions done there can't be lower than four hundred thousand spirit crystals."Rudy's mouth was wide open after hearing the explanations. The rules were not too complicated, and anyone with half a blame could understand it. However, the meaning behind all that was different.Rudy took a deep breath as his mouth twitched slightly, "The high-tier stalls are all at least four hundred thousand spirit crystals! Isn't this sum just far too b
The outermost section consisted of low-tier stalls. The middle section consisted of middle-tier stalls. There were nine levels among the middle-tier stalls, and after those nien levels were the higher-tier stalls. All the pavilions were built at the highest points.It was a deliberate way to show off how special the high-tier stalls were. Those who had stalls up there were mostly not alchemists, just like Fane had said. Instead, most of the people shopping around there were alchemists.The ones sitting down on the high-tier stalls were not alchemists, which confused Rudy even more.Fane raised an eyebrow as he decided to explain it to Rudy, "Everyone who enters the outer city will have an outer city entry token in their hands. With that entry token, we can head to the testing area to official take part in the tests."Only by passing the test can one use their results to get a stall. There is not rule against taking the test for someone else this time, so many warriors used this met
Rudy hurriedly nodded his head. The outer city was just like a massive gathering place. There would naturally be tests to face, but he would be able to see a lot of things.Fane led the way as Rudy followed. The two of them looked around the low-tier and middle-tier stalls. There really were many things around that Rudy had never seen before, and they managed to see what most of the owners were selling.In truth, most of the goods for sale were still focused on pills. Many stall owners had the pills they needed written clearly there. Those owners would provide the materials, needing alchemists to help them refine the pills.Some of the stall owners had found rare materials in the Whirling World. They wanted to obtain pills from alchemists by bartering.After looking around, Rudy hurriedly followed Fane and whispered, "The prices here are not just two times higher than in the outside world. Look at those spirit gathering pills. In the outside world, one pill should just be about thr
