"Hmm?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the middle-aged man in confusion.
"Manager."
At this time, the staff member who told Duan Lingtian that there were no seats bowed respectfully to the middle-aged man, his heart full of unease and resentment.
He was uneasy about Duan Lingtian's identity.
He was angry that Duan Lingtian didn't reveal his identity.
"Are you blind? This is the Pavilion Master's guest!"
The middle-aged man glared at the staff member, who quickly smiled apologetically at Duan Lingtian, "Guest, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were the Pavilion Master's guest."
"Guest, don't mind him! Come with me, the Pavilion Master is waiting for you. "
The middle-aged man looked at Duan Lingtian, his face full of smiles.
"Pavilion Master? The Pavilion Master of Qi Zhen Pavilion? "
Duan Lingtian's heart was full of doubts. The Pavilion Master of Qi Zhen Pavilion knew him?
With doubts, Duan Lingtian followed the middle-aged man to the top floor of Qi Zhen Pavilion. The top floor of Qi Zhen Pavilion was half open, bathed in the morning light.
"Guest, the Pavilion Master is waiting for you outside."
The middle-aged man looked at the open balcony outside and said to Duan Lingtian, then turned and went downstairs.
Duan Lingtian stepped out and walked into the open balcony.
After entering, he saw a person with his back facing him, standing by the railing of the balcony, bathing in the morning light and looking out at the street. Of course, this wasn't the main point.
The main point was that he felt that the back in front of him was somewhat familiar, as if he had met him before.
However, he couldn't recall who it was at that moment.
"You are?"
Duan Lingtian stopped and asked as he approached the back of the figure.
"Haha … Duan Lingtian, have you forgotten your savior so quickly?"
With a burst of hearty laughter, the owner of the figure turned around. It was a middle-aged man dressed like a scholar, with a silk headband on his head and a feathered fan in his hand.
"Senior … Senior Lin!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes widened. "You … you're the owner of Qi Zhen Pavilion?"
The middle-aged scholar standing before Duan Lingtian was none other than Lin Qing Rong who had saved his life near Fuyu Island. He was also one of the 36 Guardians of the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City.
The ninth guard, the Heavenly Hero Guard!
Duan Lingtian knew that the Qi Zhen Pavilion was the property of the Mayor's Palace, but he didn't expect that the owner of the Qi Zhen Pavilion would be this' old acquaintance '.
"Don't be surprised. I just took office last month."
Lin Qing Rong smiled.
He had indeed just taken office last month.
Furthermore, the fact that he was able to become the Pavilion Master of the Qi Zhen Pavilion was mostly because of Duan Lingtian … More accurately, it was because he had found a genius like Duan Lingtian for the Governor's Mansion.
He had become the Pavilion Master of the Rare Treasure Pavilion because the leader of the thirty-six personal guards, the Sky Leader Guardian, had personally appointed him.
"If that's the case, the reason why the Qi Zhen Pavilion is auctioning three sets of Saint Grade Martial Tactics today is because of you, Senior Lin, the new broom sweeps clean?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"You can say that. I knew you'd be interested in today's auction when I saw you here … Are you here for the Saint Grade Martial Tactic? "
Lin Qing Rong asked.
"I'm just here to join in the fun."
Duan Lingtian smiled. "I can't afford the Saint Grade Martial Tactic."
"I heard … when you defeated Li Han and Zhang Ji Long, the Saint Grade Martial Tactic you used was very impressive."
Lin Qing Rong smiled as he looked deeply at Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian smiled awkwardly.
"Senior Lin, do you have the Saint Token of the Saint Grade Martial Tactic that will be auctioned today?"
Duan Lingtian asked curiously.
In his opinion, the Saint Token that contained the Saint Grade Martial Tactic was extremely important … Logically speaking, it should be in the hands of Lin Qing Rong, the Pavilion Master of the Rare Treasure Pavilion.
If it was in Lin Qing Rong's hands, perhaps he would have a chance to borrow it.
"That's right!"
Under Duan Lingtian's expectant gaze, Lin Qing Rong nodded. With a raise of his hand, three Saint Tokens appeared in his hand. "Why? Do you want to take a look? "
"I want to take a look."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Actually, when Lord City Governor comes out from his closed-door cultivation ten days later, you'll be able to obtain a lot of Merit Points if you achieve a certain result in the test he set up."
Lin Qing Rong said, "With the Merit Points, you'll be able to borrow the Saint Grade Martial Tactic in the City Governor's Estate … The Saint Grade Martial Tactic in the City Governor's Estate is much better than the one I have."
As Lin Qing Rong spoke, he handed the three Saint Tokens to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian took the Saint Tokens and infused his Spiritual Energy into them one by one. At once, three waves of vast information surged into his mind as though they had taken root and sprouted in his mind.
"The three Saint Tokens in your hand contain the Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic … Among these three sets of Saint Grade Martial Tactic, only two of them have a common defensive technique called Copper Shirt. It's not bad, so you can take a look at it."
Lin Qing Rong said.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian began to sort out the three waves of vast information in his mind. In the end, he discovered that among the two waves of information that originated from two different Saint Tokens, there were two small waves of information that were exactly the same.
These two small waves of information recorded the same defensive technique. It was the Copper Shirt that Lin Qing Rong had mentioned earlier!
Copper Shirt was a defensive technique that merged True Energy into one's flesh and blood. It even covered one's skin with True Energy. When cultivated to the peak, the True Energy that entered one's body would be like an iron wall.
"This defensive technique is very suitable for my body!"
Duan Lingtian was excited.
His body was already extremely strong. It was even stronger than the body of a Five-clawed Divine Dragon of the same level. If he could cultivate this Copper Shirt, his body would become even stronger after the True Energy entered his body!
"Senior Lin, these two sets of Saint Grade Martial Tactic are completely different. How can they have the exact same technique?"
Duan Lingtian could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it.
At this moment, he returned the three Saint Tokens to Lin Qing Rong.
To him, the three Saint Tokens were no longer of any value. This was because he had already engraved the contents of the three Saint Tokens in his mind. He would not be able to forget it even if he wanted to.
"Moreover, I discovered that this technique is also in the Saint Grade Martial Tactic that I'm currently cultivating."
Duan Lingtian added.
He was already preparing to cultivate the Copper Shirt. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he began to pave the way for himself so that Lin Qing Rong would know that the Copper Shirt was also in the Saint Grade Martial Tactic that he was cultivating.
"The Copper Shirt is also in the Saint Grade Martial Tactic that you're cultivating?"
Lin Qing Rong was a little surprised. At the same time, he shook his head and smiled. "To think that I even recommended it to you … However, it's not rare for the same technique to appear in multiple Saint Grade Martial Tactics.
Of course, this only exists in the Human Rank Saint Grade Martial Tactic … Among them, the Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic is the most common. "
Lin Qing Rong said, "Take the Copper Shirt for example. It's the most popular defensive technique in the Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic … If a hundred people who cultivate different Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactics were to gather together, at least ten of them would have cultivated the Copper Shirt."
"I see."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"However, you're really lucky."
Lin Qing Rong smiled.
Duan Ling Tian was slightly puzzled, and he had a bewildered expression. "Senior Lin, what do you mean by having good luck?"
"In the City Governor's Mansion, there's a Human Rank Mediocre Saint Grade Martial Tactic … In it, there's an upgraded version of the defensive technique, the Copper Shirt, called the Silver Shirt."
Lin Qing Rong said.
"Silver Shirt?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
"Yes! It's the Silver Shirt. "
Lin Qing Rong nodded. "Although both the Silver Shirt and the Copper Shirt are divided into five stages, the effects are completely different. The effects of the Silver Shirt at the Mastery Stage are comparable to the Copper Shirt at the Impeccable Stage. "
Duan Lingtian nodded. He could understand this.
After all, they belonged to different categories.
One belonged to the Human Rank Mediocre Saint Grade Martial Tactic while the other belonged to the Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
"However, if you cultivate the Copper Shirt to the Impeccable Stage and then cultivate the Silver Shirt, you'll be able to achieve the Silver Shirt at the Mastery Stage."
Lin Qing Rong said again.
The techniques in the Saint Grade Martial Tactic were divided into five stages:
Getting a glimpse of the door, achieving some success, reaching a higher level, familiarizing oneself with the task, and reaching the point of perfection.
Cultivating the Copper Shirt to the Impeccable Stage was already the limit. There was no way to improve it anymore. However, the Silver Shirt was different. The Copper Shirt at the Impeccable Stage was equivalent to the Silver Shirt at the Mastery Stage.
After the transformation, the upper limit would increase and it could be raised by two stages.
The effects were completely different.
"Do you understand what I mean now?"
Lin Qing Rong asked.
Duan Lingtian nodded.
Lin Qing Rong's words were very clear. He was hinting that he could focus on cultivating the Copper Shirt. No matter how much effort he had to put in, it would not go to waste.
This was because when the Copper Shirt was cultivated to the peak, it could be transformed into the Silver Shirt.
Moreover, with the Copper Shirt as the foundation, he would not have to start cultivating the Silver Shirt from the beginning. He could start cultivating halfway.
"Alright … I should go prepare for the auction."
Lin Qing Rong lifted his head to look at the sky and said to Duan Lingtian, "I'll arrange a private room for you for today's auction. At that time, other than these three sets of Saint Grade Martial Tactic, you can bid for any auction item. I'll pay for it."
"Only one item?"
Duan Lingtian chuckled. "Senior Lin, don't you think you're being a little stingy?"
"Two items then … I can't bid anymore."
Lin Qing Rong said snappily.
Before the auction began, under Lin Qing Rong's arrangement, Duan Lingtian sat in a private room on the second floor. From the window of the private room, he could see the entire auction stage.
"I hope there's something that interests me … It'd be even better if there are two items."
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself.
Before the auction began, Duan Lingtian began to organize the information about the defensive technique, the Copper Shirt. At the same time, he circulated his True Energy according to the route of the Copper Shirt.
In the beginning, Duan Lingtian had wondered if it was worth it to waste time on a Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic like the Copper Shirt.
