Chapter 242: Chapter 204: Interesting Pill

...

The day’s lessons had already begun, but for some reason, none of the friends hurried to their classroom to attend. Instead, the five of them sat together for a long time, chatting about their daily lives until they finally parted ways.

The feeling of being with friends always warmed the deepest parts of one’s heart, bringing a sense of comfort and fulfillment that helped Lan Feng improve slightly. His white feathers slowly regained celestial brilliance.

When the friends returned to the courtyard to cultivate, Yan Xiaobao finally felt a surge of excitement brewing within him. A thrill aroused by one particular thing. It was now time to spend some of the money he had earned from the auction the previous day.

The academy’s currency was once again tied to the Memory Stones, so Yan Xiaobao extracted a spirit coin from his golden Memory Stone and added it to his student badge, then steadily made his way to the medicine outlet he had seen before but never entered.

The mountains housing the classrooms were bustling with people, but as Yan Xiaobao approached the medicine outlet, he noticed that the streets had grown desolate.

Medicine pills were considered divine aid for cultivators; however, their prices far exceeded what students would typically afford. Most young masters relied on pills sent by their families rather than those available for purchase at the academy.

The medicine pill outlet resembled the other buildings in the academy. It remained open daily, allowing students to enter at any time. However, unless they had sufficient funds in their student badges, entry was impossible for them.

There was no one in the room Yan Xiaobao entered, yet the entire space was filled with glass cabinets displaying various pills.

Most of the pills on display were evidently the three types distributed monthly: essence collection pills, Qi Refining Pills, and Qi Gra Pills.

Aside from these pills, there were a few floating medicine pills Yan Xiaobao recognized from the academy’s infirmary, used to stabilize patients. This type of pill was described as capable of enabling the consumer to fly for short periods.

Undoubtedly, these four pills intrigued Yan Xiaobao the most, for the other medicine focused on superficial matters, such as the Sun Block Pills, which ensured one’s skin would remain jade-like white as if they had never been exposed to the sun, no matter how long they walked under its rays.

Yan Xiaobao noticed the abundance of Qi Gra Pills and sighed lightly, feeling a trace of longing. Just as he reached out to take one of the medicine pills, a voice broke the silence.

"Student. Why are you here?" A stern voice rang out behind Yan Xiaobao, "As long as you have money, you can purchase pills of higher quality."

Yan Xiaobao slowly turned around, feeling slightly alarmed. This man had managed to appear behind him without making a sound, as Yan Xiaobao had been too engrossed in reading the signs describing various pills to take notice and had no guards up against this imposing figure.

"Elder, please tell me more about these high-grade pills," Yan Xiaobao politely said as he looked at the man in front of him.

The man did not appear very old, yet there was a profound depth within him, swimming beneath a pleasant exterior. This appearance did not at all match the ancient and irritable voice Yan Xiaobao had imagined.

"You seem to carry quite a bit of cash in your student badge," the elder pointed out, "We usually welcome students like you to explore our more refined pill selections."

When Yan Xiaobao heard that the elder knew he had inserted a spirit coin into his student badge, a chill ran down his spine. Suddenly, he felt grateful that he had resisted temptation and refrained from adding multiple spirit coins instead.

The academy’s surveillance of student badges left Yan Xiaobao feeling slightly uneasy and more cautious about them. As his mood settled, he mentally noted this as a topic to discuss with Lan Feng.

Having decided, Yan Xiaobao expressed his intent to purchase high-grade pills and followed the young elder into the backroom. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Once Yan Xiaobao entered, his nostrils were hit with an even stronger scent than before. Clearly, the pills here were more potent than those in the previous room. Not only were the aromas stronger, but they were also larger in size and brighter in color.

Some of the pills bore the same names as those displayed in the earlier room. However, these versions were visually more vibrant and emitted a stronger fragrance, making it obvious to Yan Xiaobao that they were more refined.

Among the medicine pills in this room, one particularly alluring scent drew Yan Xiaobao toward it, as though it were beckoning him.

The pill was green on the outside, with a glossy finish that made it shine as though it had been polished. This pill was called Qi Boosting Pills, claiming to absorb a portion of the essence from heaven and earth and convert it into Qi equivalent to middle-tier cultivators. The higher the quality of Qi, the lesser the amount in each pill.

Without a doubt, these pills were the highest-grade medicine pills Yan Xiaobao had found in this shop, and he felt he absolutely needed them.

"Mister, do you have more of these pills?" Yan Xiaobao asked with wide eyes, pointing toward the Qi Pills on display.

"We do," the elder replied with a satisfied smile, "but they are very expensive."

The pills were payments made to the teachers working at the Royal Academy. Currently, each was priced at 100 gold coins, a sum far above market rates. The elder was fully aware of this but seemed indifferent. After all, the money ultimately funded the Royal Family.

"I’ll purchase as many as I can with one spirit coin," Yan Xiaobao said, his eyes gleaming. They grew even wider as he watched the elder bring out ten small jade boxes, each containing one Qi Pill.
