"Store Manager Mo, I'll take my leave first," Yu Xiuyuan said when he saw Mo Tiankong spacing out again.
"Alright, take care." He was distracted again, and put away his storage pouch.
What followed was another busy afternoon. After the warriors who had purchased the items went out, there was also a promotion. Therefore, many warriors came in the afternoon.
"330 Spirit Stones," Mo Tiankong said as he glanced at the sky. It was already dark, and this was the last customer in the store.
"Ji Xiang, Ji Xiang!" Mo Tiankong turned his head to look at Ji Xiang. He didn't know where it had run off to. Had it been taken away by the store's martial artists?
"Awoo …" Auspicious roared as it ran out from the backyard.
Of course, it was impossible for it to be taken away. The System was watching in the grocery store, so it was impossible to take it away, unless it was lost outside.
"Tell me, did you go to sleep again?" Mo Tiankong was sure that it was sleeping.
It was noisy, so it ran to the backyard. There were many people in the grocery store during the day, and because it was an event, it was still noisy even if it was not loud.
"…" Auspicious immediately shook its head to show that it did not go to sleep.
"Oh, you still don't admit it? I wonder if you can take a beating," Mo Tiankong saw that Auspicious was not repentant, so he felt that it was time to give it a beating.
Auspicious was so scared that it immediately stepped back, then nodded vigorously.
"So you admit it and went to sleep," Mo Tiankong could not help but laugh. It admitted to it, so it would not be right if he did not give it a beating.
Auspicious shook its head again when it saw Mo Tiankong walking over, but Mo Tiankong picked it up.
He was just a bit worried that Auspicious was not there, but it was a bit lazy, eating and sleeping.
"…" In the end, Mo Tiankong did not beat up Auspicious.
"Let's go, it's time to cook," Mo Tiankong said after putting the food back on the ground. Then, he walked towards the backyard.
Just as she was packing up, footsteps came from the shop again.
"System, why do people come every time I'm cooking?" Mo Tiankong reasonably suspected that it was the System's doing. Wasn't it just cooking during business hours? Besides, there was no one in the shop.
However, after waiting for a while, the System did not speak. Was it dead? Or was there another System outside? This was the first time the System did not respond to him.
Of course, the System really did not want to compete with this idiot. If the System could let warriors come and buy things, why would it need to release the Main Storyline?
Mo Tiankong washed his hands and walked back into the hall.
Mo Tiankong took a few steps back to the cashier counter. He sized up these people.
A young man led the group, followed by two middle-aged men. It was a group of three.
"All the things sold in the grocery store are on the shelves over there," Mo Tiankong said out of habit as he pointed at the shelves.
"Thank you," the young man in the lead said and led the two to the shelves.
Mo Tiankong did not stay idle. He secretly used the appraisal technique.
Name: Han Fei
Age: 25
Cultivation: Rank Six Martial King
Identity: Imperial Capital's Han Family's third generation eldest son
The news had already spread to the imperial capital. First, the Third Prince Yan Xiu came. Then, the eldest son of the Han Family came. They were not slow at all. It took only a few days.
He seemed to have heard from Fatty Tang that this person was on the Prodigy Ranking last time. Was he in the seventies or eighties? He did not know the exact number. However, if one were to select a hundred young warriors from the entire continent, he could be called a prodigy.
However, the Han Family had also sent two Martial Emperors to protect him. The two middle-aged men behind him were both Martial Emperors. As long as the two of them were not attacked by Venerables or Martial Emperors several times their number, they would not have any problems.
This also showed how much the Han Family valued Han Fei. After three years, the prodigy's cultivation had also advanced by leaps and bounds. He was only a step away from becoming a high-grade Martial King.
The last time he was on the Prodigy Ranking, his cultivation was still Wuzong. Unexpectedly, he had already become a middle-grade Martial King.
Three years ago, he was twenty-two years old and had already reached Wuzong. His cultivation was much faster than Kuang Tie's. He was an entire stage higher.
Even though Kuang Tie was still twenty-two years old, it was hard to say what would happen in three years. Without any opportunity, he could forget about catching up.
This was the first time Mo Tiankong had seen such a high cultivation at such a young age.
The first place on the Prodigy Ranking that Fatty Tang mentioned was Li Tian. Li Tian was the first place on the Prodigy Ranking last time. If he was not over thirty years old, based on Han Fei's cultivation speed, Li Tian might have already reached the Martial Emperor Realm. Then, if nothing unexpected happened, it would not be difficult for him to take the first place on the Prodigy Ranking again, unless there were a few dark horses.
Furthermore, there would definitely be many cultivators who were not over the age limit. Therefore, it would be difficult for him to leave his name on the Prodigy Ranking this time.
Mo Tiankong felt deep sympathy for Fatty Tang, Zhang Tiannan, and the others. Even with the help of the Ferghana horse, it would be very difficult for them to get on the Prodigy Ranking this time.
It was not enough to nurture them to low-grade Martial Kings. He glanced at Han Fei. If this fellow went all out, his combat strength might even reach that of a high-grade Martial King.
"Young Master, didn't you say you were going to visit the manager of the grocery store?" asked a cultivator behind him.
"His cultivation is higher than mine. I can't sense it. This is proof enough," Han Fei said indifferently as he held a Ferghana horse card.
The other Martial Emperor expert was about to speak when he was stopped by a look from the previous cultivator. He originally wanted to tell the Young Master about the manager's cultivation, but then he realized that the manager's cultivation was higher than his.
The Young Master had obviously sensed that the manager's cultivation was higher than his. If he said anything else, it would be a slap in the face.
According to the news, the manager of the grocery store was a Martial King expert. Furthermore, he was very young. One could roughly sense his bone age with their mental power. Mo Tiankong had been a low-grade Martial King for a while. If a cultivator with a higher cultivation than him were to observe him, they would be able to easily sense it.
The System only guaranteed Mo Tiankong's safety in the store. As for concealing his cultivation level, it would not do that. Furthermore, Mo Tiankong would occasionally reveal his cultivation level to discourage Zhang Tiannan and Fatty Tang.
In the Aquamarine Empire, Han Fei's cultivation level was unparalleled. He could not find a match even if he wanted to. It just so happened that the Han Family had received news about the grocery store and were preparing to send someone over to purchase items. When Han Fei heard about this, he naturally had the idea to pay them a visit.
Thus, this scene occurred. Little did he know that Mo Tiankong had already grasped Han Fei's information during this short period of time.
"Forget it. You can take the items that the Han Family wants to purchase this time. I'll go over first." After thinking about it, Han Fei decided to pay Mo Tiankong a visit.
"Store Manager Mo, right? May I ask what your cultivation level is?" When Mo Tiankong saw Han Fei walking over alone, Han Fei spoke first before he could say anything.
"Eh, rank nine Martial King." This was not a secret. Mo Tiankong did not plan to hide it. It seemed that this guy had come over just to ask about his cultivation level.
After hearing Mo Tiankong's words, Han Fei's expression stiffened. Mo Tiankong was three ranks higher than him. His strength was definitely stronger. He had never heard of such a young expert in the Aquamarine Empire.
However, Han Fei was overthinking this question. Mo Tiankong's cultivation level was in vain. His actual battle strength was at most comparable to an experienced mid rank Martial King.
Of course, it was understandable. To be able to reach such a cultivation level at such a young age meant that his talent was top-notch. Furthermore, if he also had a special body constitution, his battle strength would most likely be comparable to a Martial King.
Han Fei himself also had a special body constitution. Furthermore, he had a lot of battle experience and his battle strength was very high. He could even fight a high rank Martial King expert.
"Then why didn't you participate in the Prodigy Roll last time?" According to Han Fei's thoughts, Mo Tiankong's cultivation level should have been higher than his when he participated in the Prodigy Roll last time. It should not have been a problem for him to leave his name on the Prodigy Roll.
"Cough, cough. As a martial artist, we should focus on the martial path. The Prodigy Roll is just some fame and fortune for me." Mo Tiankong choked. Three years ago, he was still on Earth. He wanted to, but he had not been brought over by the System yet.
Speaking of which, he did not know what the rewards were like three years ago. If he sold it, how many spirit stones would it be worth? If he had not come three years ago, his cultivation level would probably be very high now. Well, he was going a little off-topic.
"Store Manager Mo is right. The martial path comes before fame and fortune. When I go back, I'll tell my father that I won't participate in the Prodigy Roll this time. I'll focus on cultivation." After hearing Mo Tiankong's words, Han Fei's expression became serious.
Mo Tiankong was dumbfounded. F * ck, wait a minute. I was just saying it casually. Why are you taking it so seriously? You won't participate just like that? The Han family has mines!
Other martial artists participated in the Prodigy Roll for resources, whether it was weapons, pills, or natural treasures. Those who could leave their name in the Prodigy Roll would definitely be rewarded handsomely. They wanted the strong to stay strong and hope that a group of seedlings would grow up quickly and become strong.
Thinking about it, the Han family was one of the top families in the Imperial Capital. It seemed that their family did indeed have mines. However, the rewards for this grand event of the entire continent might be some natural treasures. These were rare things. Mo Tiankong's heart ached for him.
Focus on cultivation my ass. If he ate more natural treasures, he would be much better than you.
Mo Tiankong didn't expect this guy to be so easily fooled. No, he might have harmed this guy. Now, he had to make up for it.
"What's your name?" Mo Tiankong knew that it was hard to explain since he knew Han Fei's name. He could only ask.
"Han Fei."
"What do you think of the items in the grocery store?" Mo Tiankong continued to ask.
"Rare." Han Fei thought for a moment. He had seen the items in the store before. Some of them were even new to him.
"As the Store Manager, I don't lack cultivation resources." Mo Tiankong thought that it was obvious. We're different, brother. I have the System. I can cheat. You'd better participate in the Prodigy Roll.
"…" Han Fei didn't understand for a moment.
"Store Manager Mo wants me to participate in the Prodigy Roll and compete for the rewards?" Han Fei asked uncertainly.
"By the way, we martial artists can fight for ourselves. Why do we have to rely on our parents' family?" Mo Tiankong said this without blushing or panting.
Han Fei didn't rely on his parents' family. His parents were unsolved mysteries. He relied on the System.
Mo Tiankong didn't lack resources, so he didn't care about the fame and fortune of the Prodigy Roll. However, he wasn't at the same level as Mo Tiankong. Judging from the rarity of the items in the store, some of them could be exchanged for natural treasures. Besides, maybe Mo Tiankong's family didn't lack these things.
There was a rumor that there was a Martial Grand Emperor behind the store. Combining the two, there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that it was a super family. After all, to be able to sell these things, it couldn't be simple. Even a Martial God's family would believe it.
Although the Han family was ranked high in the imperial capital, it was very ordinary in the continent. Mo Tiankong didn't lack resources. Compared to those super families, the Han family definitely couldn't compare.
