Apart from these treasures, Qi Tian also spent more than 10 million low-grade spirit stones to buy a hairpin. After becoming a cultivator, Qi Tian, like other cultivators, had started growing long hair. Ordinarily, this hair was coiled on top of his head, clasped in place by a hairpin.

The hairpin he bought looked very ordinary in style but was an impressive defensive magical tool. It defended not against physical attacks or spell-type attacks, but against ntal attacks. More specifically, it defended against direct attacks on the wearer’s sea of consciousness and soul using special ans. Such attacks were often hard to guard against. Even if Qi Tian had the Heavenly Dao Engine which could identify all types of energy, he could not guarantee that he could identify attacks on his soul in ti. After all, he also needed to rest, ditate, etc. Many tis, it was impossible to keep the Heavenly Dao Engine on alert for external threats. At such tis, having a treasure that could protect the soul beca incredibly important.

Qi Tian understood this principle, and so did others. Thus, during the auction, the bidding was particularly intense. Even those at the Gold Core Realm bid repeatedly. Only because Qi Tian was rich and hidden in a private room, without worrying about outsiders discovering his identity, was he able to buy this Heart Protecting Hairpin. Otherwise, with so many strong practitioners at the Gold Core Realm present, it would be his turn at all.

Qi Tian was generally satisfied with this auction. Not only did he buy defensive treasures like the Heart Protecting Hairpin and Linked-Chain Armor, but also attack magical tools like Gold Core Thunder Talisman. This was what made him satisfied. If there was anything he wasn’t satisfied with, it was that the Gold Core Thunder Talisman he bought was a one-ti use talisman. Even if he only used one each ti, he could only use it ten tis. He didn’t manage to buy any continuous-use weapons or magical treasures, and he didn’t get any defensive and offensive treasures.

Still, just Qi Tian alone spent over 50 million low-grade spirit stones at this auction. Counting the fees he had to pay, the total exceeded 60 million low-grade spirit stones. His wealth had drawn the attention of quite a few people. If not for the private room blocking others’ line of sight, and if the passageway to enter the room wasn’t specially designed, by now, so people might have thought to take advantage of Qi Tian.

After the auction ended, it was already late at night. Qi Tian returned to his ho and practiced overnight. Early the next morning, he rushed to the entrance of Wanjie Comrce. Wan Xiaolan hadn’t arrived yet, and the main entrance of Wanjie Comrce had not been opened. However, there were already a few people at the door. Qi Tian glanced at them, all of whom were cultivators at the Foundation Establishnt Stage. Even the one with the lowest cultivation level had reached the seventh level of Foundation Establishnt stage, and they were all in their early twenties. Although they were a few years older than him, in the world of cultivation, those who could reach this level at this age could absolutely be called “geniuses”.

They all stood far apart from each other, none willing to talk to others. Everyone saw themselves as a genius and disdained to grovel or flatter others curtly. Qi Tian didn’t have that kind of ntality, but he realized that he didn’t know anyone present. If he went up to greet them rashly, he might not get a response. He might as well stay silent.

So, Qi Tian also stood still. Fortunately, Wan Xiaolan didn’t make Qi Tian and others wait too long. A few minutes later, she arrived. She wasn’t alone; ahead of her was a beautiful woman who had hosted yesterday’s Eight Pill Alliance specialist auction, Liang Yuqi.

Everyone quickly saluted Liang Yuqi and Wan Xiaolan.

Wan Xiaolan nodded casually. He stood behind and slightly to the side of Liang Yuqi, slightly bowing and said, “Elder Liang, these are the people I selected. What do you think? Are they okay?”

Liang Yuqi’s gaze swept over Qi Tian and the others. When she saw Qi Tian, her gaze lingered for a second longer than on the others, but it was only that.

“Good, I trust Elder Wan’s judgent. All of you listen to , I will be in charge of leading you to the Stone Milk Pool this year. From now on, all your actions must be directed by . You are not allowed to act on your own. Otherwise, if anything unexpected happens in the middle, our Wanjie Comrce will not be responsible. If your actions cause any losses to our Wanjie Comrce, we will make the person responsible pay double compensation. Have you all heard clearly?” Liang Yuqi’s face was frosty, and she showed none of the charm that she had at yesterday’s auction.

The hearts of the crowd trembled. Liang Yuqi was an elder of Wanjie Comrce. Just this status was enough to scare people, let alone that she was a master of the sixth level in the Gold Core Realm. She could slap them to death with one hand.

Liang Yuqi nodded slightly. She had seen many young people like Qi Tian who boasted about their impressive cultivation progress. They were all proud and arrogant, typically not placing other people in their eyes. If they were not awed from the start, it would cause trouble later. At that ti, it might take more effort to make them realize what they could do and what they couldn’t do.

Liang Yuqi waved her hand, and a flying sailboat appeared in front of her. Its size and dinsions were not on par with the flying sailboat that Wanjie Comrce had used to transport people before, but it was not small either. It was even several tis larger than a private yacht on Earth.
