Zane ca to the Seven Kingdoms rchant Association today and suffered quite a bit. He lost more than half of the gold coins he had painstakingly saved up, and when he returned ho, he would have to face his father's punishnt.
Because of this, Zane was very concerned about Charles's gains. He hoped that Charles had misjudged the situation.
After all, the hardest thing for him to accept was that while he was losing money, his enemy not only didn't lose anything but also made a substantial profit.
Charles noticed Daniel Long's curious gaze and slowly began to speak, "I didn't buy much, just happened to co across the hide of an eighth-tier ferocious beast and bought it."
"What? Eighth-tier ferocious beast hide? Mr. Charles, how much did you spend on it? Don't try to deceive ." Daniel Long said with so concern.
He knew that Charles had managed to make Zane suffer a significant loss, so he must have so tricks up his sleeve. However, the item exchange market was filled with cunning stall owners.
These people's tactics are so crafty that even the professional appraisers at the Genosha branch of the Seven Kingdoms rchant Association can't be 100% sure they can see through them.
Charles raised his hand and gestured simply, replying, "I only spent five gold coins. It's not much."
"That's not too bad, five gold coins for a lesson learned is quite reasonable." Daniel Long sighed with relief.
When he heard Charles ntion spending five gold coins, he had already concluded in his mind.
The so-called beast hide must be fake, after all, the hide of an eighth-tier ferocious beast would cost at least twenty gold coins!
"The small auction will start shortly, Mr. Charles. Rest assured, all the items being auctioned have been uniformly appraised. For any unknown items, the Seven Kingdoms rchant Association will provide prior notice." Daniel Long kindly reminded him.
Charles scratched his head and thought about it, he felt that Daniel Long might have misunderstood, but he didn't bother to explain further.
Celestine, who was linked arm-in-arm with Charles, seed displeased. She noticed Zane's expression at the elevator entrance, which bore a look of schadenfreude.
"Charles didn't suffer a loss at all. That eighth-tier ferocious beast hide has already been sold for a total of thirty gold coins." Celestine explained briefly.
She didn't want others to think that Charles had misjudged the item and incurred a loss.
An outstanding person should beco even more exceptional amid the shock and admiration of the crowd!
"Sold for thirty gold coins? Was that really an eighth-tier ferocious beast hide?" Daniel Long exclaid, his mouth agape as he turned to look at Charles, clearly astonished.
Countless people ca to the item exchange market, hoping to buy high-value items at low prices and get rich overnight.
But here was eighteen-year-old Charles, who had directly turned five gold coins into thirty!
At this mont, Zane was starting to lose his composure, his expression went blank.
Initially reluctant to speak, he couldn't help but say, "You didn't sell that hide to an idiot, did you? There must be sothing wrong with it."
"What do you an, sold it to an idiot?" Celestine imdiately asked loudly.
Still not able to tolerate anyone trying to belittle Charles. Charles might not care, but Celestine was very sensitive about these matters.
"What's wrong? Did I hit the nail on the head? What kind of normal person would spend thirty gold coins on sothing Charles bought for five? They must have a screw loose." Zane insisted firmly.
At that mont, footsteps echoed from the corridor behind them, accompanied by a familiar voice.
"Excuse , but my brain is perfectly fine." said none other than the person who bought the beast hide, David Qi!
When Zane saw soone rebutting him, especially soone he had never seen before, he instantly felt irked and responded harshly, "Who are you?"
As the president of the Genosha branch of the Seven Kingdoms rchant Association, Daniel Long knew many people, and he imdiately recognized David Qi.
"David Qi, I didn't expect you to be here." Daniel Long said, his tone markedly different from Zane's, full of respect.
Although David Qi was not a high-tier Beast Master, his status in the field of Beast Mastery knowledge was unmatched in all of Genosha.
Moreover, a scholar of Beast Mastery like him knows many high-tier Beast Masters.
Seeing Daniel Long's attitude, Zane, no matter how dim-witted, sensed sothing was off.
He wanted to say sothing, but David Qi interjected, "I'm just an ordinary Beast Mastery scholar. A person who studies Beast Mastery knowledge should have a functioning brain."
Upon hearing this, sweat ford on Zane's forehead.
Images of people who matched his status flashed through his mind, and he ultimately confird that the person before him was David Qi, soone even the head of the Taylor family would treat with respect.
"David Qi, I wasn't talking about you just now, please don't take it personally." Zane quickly backpedaled, filled with regret for having spoken up.
He realized that every ti Charles was present, his words would lead to trouble.
"Actually, I did buy that hide from Charles. It's just that my brain is just fine, it truly is a rare high-tier ferocious beast hide with significant research value." David Qi replied, his tone unfriendly.
He despised people like Zane—ignorant yet arrogant, foolish and unaware of their own stupidity.
Not giving Zane the chance to continue his defense.
David Qi turned to Charles with a smile and said, "Don't forget our agreent, Mr. Charles. If you have ti, make sure to look up."
Daniel Long's expression was neutral, but his eyes had discreetly scanned Charles, and his shock intensified.
David Qi, a scholar of Beast Mastery, treated Charles with such kindness.
He even addressed Charles as "sir." clearly indicating that he regarded Charles as soone worthy of respect in the field of Beast Mastery knowledge!
An eighteen-year-old genius Beast Master commanded the respect of a renowned scholar?
Daniel Long began to wonder if he had misheard earlier.
"David Qi, I will definitely visit you when I have the ti. Aren't you attending the small auction later?" Charles replied.
David Qi waved his hand and explained, "No need, I've already made quite a haul today. I can't wait to get back and study this beast hide."
At this point, a glimr of desire suddenly appeared in David Qi's eyes.
He cautiously inquired, "Mr. Charles, if you decide to sell that Stone Ape Heart, please let know first. I assure you, I will give you a satisfactory price."
Charles nodded. The Stone Ape Heart was a very rare alchemy material.
If Professor Colton didn't need it, selling it to David Qi would be a good option.
Seeing Charles agree, David Qi's smile beca even more pronounced as he happily said, "I have other matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell."
Once David Qi left, Daniel Long could no longer suppress his curiosity and asked, "Stone Ape Heart? Mr. Charles, if you're considering selling it, you might also think about our Seven Kingdoms rchant Association."
It was clear that the well-inford Daniel Long had heard of the Stone Ape Heart and knew its value.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have ntioned it right after David Qi left.
"May I ask, is this Stone Ape Heart also one of Mr. Charles's recent finds at the item exchange market?" Daniel Long inquired further.
Charles nodded and replied, "Yes, I bought it along with that beast hide."
Upon hearing this, even Daniel Long, the president of the Seven Kingdoms rchant Association, felt a pang of envy.
Who would have thought that Charles, just browsing the item exchange market for a while, managed to acquire two rare items and bought them together for only five gold coins!
Zane, not far away, naturally overheard the conversation between Charles and Daniel Long. His trembling hands subtly revealed his current emotional state.
Without waiting for Daniel Long to lead the way, Zane took the nearby elevator and left.
He didn't want to be around Charles at all, it would be unbearable for him!
Soon, Daniel Long, Charles, and Celestine arrived at the venue for the small auction. Inside, there were quite a few items up for bid, mostly pieces of information and so special weapons and equipnt that didn't pique Charles's interest.
However, Celestine spent quite a bit of money on so beauty supplies.
After Charles and Celestine parted ways and returned to Cyber Academy, Charles went straight to the training room as usual.
He summoned Max, Mousie, and Mia to engage in battle training while using the Overlord Heavy Armor to continuously enhance his physical fitness.
He hadn't visited the trial tower to comprehend his combat skills for several days, and he thought he could find so ti to go in the next few days.
Having just advanced to a Level 4 Beast Master, he wouldn't be able to level up again in the short term. His next tasks were to find suitable mystical beasts to raise the levels of Max, Mousie, and Mia,
And to accelerate his understanding of combat skills while speeding up the fusion of multi-attribute energy to improve his strength as much as possible.
At that mont, Charles's phone vibrated, it was a ssage from Colton.
[I've returned to Cyber Academy. Co to the cabin when you have ti, I have sothing for you.]
Upon receiving the ssage, Charles imdiately stopped training, wiped the sweat from his body, and headed straight for Colton's cabin.
A few minutes later.
Inside the bamboo cabin at Cyber Academy, Colton had just finished crafting a miracle drug.
He handed the miracle drug to Charles and said:
"Ezra has shown so responsibility as a teacher. This is for you, so take good care of it. I have so more miracle drugs here for you as well, they might help in a crisis."
Charles looked at the information prompt before him:
[Purification Miracle Drug]
[Grade]: Orange Quality
[Description]: Taking this miracle drug can resist contamination, purify most negative states, and maintain the user's rationality and ntal calmness.
The description of the Purification Miracle Drug was very straightforward, but its effects were undeniably powerful. It was clearly prepared specifically for Charles by Colton.
