After much deliberation, Bane finally decided to buy everything. After all, it was good for his health. At most, he could take it once a week. Everyone noticed Bane's actions. They rushed over and found that the tea leaves in Bane's cup were the same as the ones for sale. “I want to buy it!” “Say, Old Clarke, don’t think of taking everything for yourself!” “How could you keep this treasure to yourself, you selfish old man!” Everyone complained, and Bane finally divided the tea leaves according to the number of people. Everyone agreed on a time to buy the tea leaves again. “Your purchasing power is so strong that I've decided to sell it once a week. You can come again next week.” Philip smiled helplessly. He was flattered that they flocked to buy it despite the high price. Soon, the old men left the store excitedly with their purchases. Everyone was shocked by their appearance. The onlookers never thought that these well-respected old men would buy something from this st
Lyle was annoyed by their arrogance. There was no need to slander them if they could not afford it. Besides, those well-respected old men bought their pills and ate them in front of everyone. Were they poisoned? Lyle was annoyed by these people who spoke without thinking and said with disdain, “If you don’t know anything, stop shooting your mouths off or you’ll get it later.” Lyle shut the door in the faces of these ignorant people. At this time, they received the latest news. The guilds would be recruiting new members. The guilds would conduct a test every five years and recruit people with talents. Hence, this duration was very important. Many people would try their best to look for ways to practice. Some people were not very talented but could be admitted by exception if they were strong enough. Some people were mediocre and wanted to use their ability to join the guild and change their destiny. It was great news for all practitioners. Philip and the others felt very
It was more difficult for an ordinary family to get a practice technique, which was mostly passed down in families or guilds. Even millions of energy stones might not necessarily get them one. Only a very lucky ordinary family might get one by chance. No one here knew if they were talented, but everyone was confident and believed that the guild would recruit them. Other than major guilds, some smaller guilds were recruiting too. At worst, they could lower their expectations and choose an ordinary guild. Some people stood at Philip’s doorstep while waiting for the guilds to arrive and naturally saw the prices marked in Philip’s store. Although the store was not officially open for business yet, they could see the price tags through the crack in the door. “Look, this must be a shady store. The prices are so high. What pills would cost millions?!” “Yeah, and the tea leaves are sold by piece. Isn’t it ridiculous?” The people waiting in line had nothing better to do and started
“Look, those people don't even dare to defend themselves. They must be indirectly admitting that they're running an illegal business.” Everyone mocked endlessly while Lyle and the others sat watching in silence. They could tell the talents of these people at a glance. None of them were highly talented, so they could only end up as external members even if they were recruited by a guild. Most of them would probably fail the selection. After all, they had poor talents and a weak foundation, so they could not contribute much to the guild. Philip could already imagine the outcome of these arrogant people if they joined a guild. They would act humbly in front of other guild members but take a drastic change once they returned to the secular world. They were the type of people Philip hated most. Very soon, members of the major guilds arrived and set up their respective booths. People lined up at various booths to undergo the test. Many people were very confident in themselves.
“If my test result proves that I’m highly talented, don’t you have to compensate me with something?” Lyle wanted to bet with them. On second thought, however, these people had nothing to stake on. They were so poor that they could not afford anything. There was really no point in betting with them. After much deliberation, Lyle decided to give up. It was not necessary to dwell on it. “Hehe, I think you’re just scared. Who said we don’t have good things? We have our traveling funds and family heirlooms with us!” “I brought a lot of treasures from home. My family prepared these weapons and pills for me!” “We can bet our treasures against you. I refuse to believe that you’re better than us!” Everyone mocked Lyle and regarded him as a braggart. Lyle was indifferent to their reaction because they were not worth his attention. However, these people refused to give up and incited others who failed the test to harass the store. Lyle was in a difficult position. He wanted to sto
Lyle tested his talent and smiled smugly because he knew he would win the bet. The talent testing device was very advanced. It could test a practitioner’s talent by pouring some energy into it, while an ordinary person had to do it with a drop of blood. The best talent would be indicated by a golden light, which was the highest it could go. The first batch of troublemakers had very poor talents, and their results were almost embarrassing to look at. Some of them even displayed a black light, which was simply a disgrace. However, they were not ashamed of it. After all, they were ordinary people with little ability, so they were not disappointed. It was just a pity that they could never become a practitioner. It would be great if they could win something from Lyle, so they were happy at that thought. “Although we’re not talented, it’s not to the point of being embarrassing. I believe that we’re much better than you!” “That's right. My result was pink, which is pretty good. I
For a while, all the major guilds bickered, eager to grab hold of Lyle. The people who initiated the bet were dumbfounded and shocked by Lyle’s powerful talent. It was fine if his talent was ordinary, but it was obviously not the case. The guilds were not fools. They would never pay such a high price to recruit an ordinary guy. Lyle simply turned to the people who bet against him. “Don’t we have a bet? Is it time to settle the score?” Lyle pointed to the things piled up on the side with a bright smile. They belonged to him now. “I’ll take these so-called heirlooms of yours, but to be honest, I’m not interested in them at all. It’s good enough if I can sell them as scrap.” Lyle mocked them on top of taking their things, which was downright annoying. However, they did not dare to say anything in the face of Lyle's great talent. They could only sigh and let Lyle take their things. “In that case, we can only accept our defeat, but do you need any helpers? All of us can…”
The small guilds chose to give up but not the large guilds. They tried to persuade Lyle. “Even if you have a teacher, he won’t be as professional as the guilds. You have to believe that a guild can provide a better practice system and make you more powerful!” “Why don’t you consider the Pill Guild? We're the biggest pill producer and can give you a bright future.” People from all the major guilds eagerly promoted themselves. Even though Lyle had rejected them, they refused to back down and doubled their efforts. Lyle was getting impatient and annoyed by these persistent people. “I’m sorry, but I’m really not interested in this area. You’re welcome to buy things in our store, but you can forget about recruiting me. This store belongs to my teacher, so please stop doing this.” After saying this, Lyle turned around and returned to the store gallantly. He had no intention of joining these guilds anyway. At this moment, the device that tested Lyle's talent exploded, maybe beca
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
Cameron smiled awkwardly at everyone’s dissatisfaction. “That’s not the case. I'm still trying to figure out the situation. I thought I might make a mistake if I released the news in advance,” Cameron explained awkwardly. Although few people bought it, they put aside their prejudices. After all, they were not here to argue but to talk about it. If Cameron was driven into a corner and refused to tell them anything, they would be on the losing end, and no one wanted that outcome. “In that case, tell us what you know so that we can put our heads together. After all, there's strength in numbers. It’s better to do this together!” “I agree with the Lamy family's patriarch. Tell us your reservations so that we can figure it out!” Everyone made a din, clearly forcing Cameron to give in to their demands. Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Cameron finally decided to tell the truth. “What’s going on?” Before Cameron could tell them anything, Rabbit appeared. Rabbit hopped
At this time, the Claude family’s butler found the residence's doorstep surrounded by people. The butler was horrified and quickly found the patriarch. “Oh no, something bad has happened!” The butler ran into the room in disbelief. The excited Cameron scowled at this sudden intrusion. “What’s bad? Watch your words. Have you forgotten your manners? Don’t speak so loudly in this house!” Cameron had been lost in his excitement, but it was quickly replaced by anger. He wished he could fire the butler on the spot.The butler was scared and felt sorry for himself. “Patriarch! I wasn’t kidding. Something bad has happened!” “People from other families are at the door, including the heads of their families! They keep talking about some storage space and a rabbit, demanding an explanation from us. I don’t know what’s going on!” The butler felt aggrieved because he had no idea what happened. He only knew that a rabbit that could speak human language had turned up in the family. That ra
Philip had that precious tea on hand. Just one mouthful was enough to improve Cameron’s strength. He also had that incredible storage space. What was Philip’s background? How many mysterious treasures did he have? No one dared to think about it. Especially Cameron, who felt that he had found a treasure this time. At first, Cameron bore a grudge against Philip and felt that he had messed things up, but now, he saw Philip as his salvation.… Meanwhile, Sadie had no idea what had happened. Sadie’s husband was dealing with Philip’s issue with Cameron and did not have time to report the situation to his useless wife. She was still thinking about how to deal with Philip. “The rabbit’s storage space must be very valuable. If I spread the news about it, everyone will mess with that rabbit and save me the effort!” Thinking of this, Sadie thought she was very smart and was eager to put the plan into action. After thinking about it, Sadie contacted several families who were on go
“What are you guys doing here? Don’t you have anything better to do?” Rabbit asked bluntly. This arrogant rabbit was even more outspoken after staying with Aslan for so long. The Claude family felt offended. “My child, do you have a storage space? How did you get it? Can you tell me more?” Cameron ignored Rabbit but asked Ronan excitedly, eager to find out the situation. Ronan nodded calmly. “It’s just a storage space. Stop kicking up a fuss over it. My space is not very big, just enough to contain this house at most. It’s not a big deal,” he said pretentiously. Hearing that, Philip silently gave him a thumbs-up. He did not forget Ronan’s exaggerated expression when he first saw the size of the storage space. Surprisingly, Ronan got into the role so quickly. Philip thought he was a good actor. Ronan's casual remarks nearly caused everyone a mental breakdown. They were shocked as if they heard something incredible. “What? Is the space that big?” Cameron coughed violently.
“You can form a bond with the ring. Once that’s done, no one can take it away from you. It’ll belong to you forever.” Philip’s explanation reassured Ronan, and he finally accepted the gift from Philip with confidence. Although Ronan was strong, he was not arrogant to the point of being ignorant. If someone could take it from him, he would rather not have it. Although it was gratifying to own one, it would be painful to lose it after having it. With Philip’s affirmation, Ronan fidgeted with the ring happily and wanted to express his gratitude. Philip simply waved his hand without dwelling on it. “That’s enough. Go explore the storage space on your own. I believe it’ll help you greatly. “Since they’re so interested in Rabbit's storage space, you should show it off to them. I believe they’ll immediately hold you in high regard and maybe they’ll deal with those arrogant guys in the family.” Philip was excited at this mean trick and laughed when he thought of those people’s ugly
