C40 Alchemists with Fire Attribute?!
"Who is that young man? What does he want Fire Martial Skill for?"
"Nobody really knows. Maybe he thinks he can activate the fire attribute."
"That’s interesting! I think so too. There is an old saying that a newborn calf is not afraid of death."
The surrounding people began to discuss amongst themselves. There were some doubts in the voices, but most of them were mocking.
The current Wu Hui did not care what others thought of him, and calmly looked at the platform, but in fact, he was eager to get it. The Fire Martial Skill might be useless for others, but for Wu Hui, it was exactly what he needed. Wu Hui prayed in his heart that no one would fight with him for it.
"One hundred and fifty thousand!" Wu Hui's prayers obviously did not have any effect. A low voice came from not too far away from Wu Hui.
Wu Hui looked towards the direction of the voice, his eyes narrowed and the corner of his mouth curved into a smile. “Huang Ziwei, it looks like the lesson you have been taught was not enough."
At this moment, Huang Ziwei gave Wu Hui a disdainful glance. What had happened in Treasure Pavilion last time had made Huang Ziwei bear a grudge in his heart, and adding that he had mysteriously lost five million taels the day before yesterday, he was no longer able to suppress the anger in his heart. Now, seeing that a famed trash of Xin Si City wanted to obtain the Fire Martial Skill that only the Pill Master could cultivate, he could no longer resist the urge to bid.
"Master Huang, what are you doing?" Wang Chuan, who sat beside Huang Ziwei, was shocked. He anxiously pulled Huang Ziwei, and in his heart, however, he was greatly reprimanded Huang Ziwei. Although Huang Ziwei was a Pill Master, he was still a secondary fire Pill Master. Fire Martial Skill was nothing to him, but if it was in a normal situation, ten thousand or several hundred thousand taels would be nothing to Wang Family. But just a few days ago, Wang Family had lost a large sum, which made Patriarch extremely dissatisfied. Why was he still showing off now?
"What's wrong, Elder Wang? Is it not appropriate for me to vent the anger in my heart? I'll pay for it myself." Glancing at Wang Chuan, Huang Ziwei's face turned red, and the anger in his eyes surged.
"Humph, why didn't you say you'd pay for the five million the day before yesterday?" Wang Chuan secretly slandered, and looked down on Huang Ziwei completely, but he could only blame himself for believing his words that day.
...
"Wang Chuan, just follow Master Huang’s advice. We can talk about it when we get back." The patriarch of Wang Family suddenly said, but his face was gloomy as though water was dripping out, and anyone could feel it.
...
On the acutin platform, when Liu Qianqian saw that only two people were bidding for Fire Martial Skill after a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little helpless in her heart. Although Fire Martial Skill was rare and precious, it was only able to attract some special people, like Pill Masters with Prime Fire Attributes, and it was useless for others. Initially, Liu Qianqian had thought that the Bai Wuya who had come to Treasure Pavilion a few days ago was a Pill Master with a high probability of having the prime fire attribute. If he was here, he would definitely be bidding. Who would have known that after the auction started, there would be no trace of Bai Wuya? She couldn't help but feel a bit regretful.
The Fire Martial Skill that was originally worth at least a million taels was now only worth one hundred and fifty thousand taels, what’s more, looking at Huang Ziwei's appearance, he was merely bidding for it in order to give vent to his grievances.
But Liu Qianqian would never break the rules of the auction. Looking around, she revealed an enchanting smile, and said, "Wang Family's Huang Ziwei bids one hundred and fifty thousand taels. Who else bids?"
For a moment, the entire auction hall was silent. No one bid again.
In the group of Wu Family, Wu Hui wanted to bid again, but he was afraid that his actions would be especially obvious. Furthermore, this time, accompanying the elders, he did not have the qualifications to bid. The bid just now had caused some of the family members to be displeased.
In Wu Family, Wu Haiya, who was seated at the front, noticed Wu Hui's somewhat anxious expression, and his eyes moved slightly as he smiled.
"Five hundred thousand!" A loud voice rang out.
Everyone in the auction hall was shocked. They didn't know who was so bold as to raise the bid from one hundred and fifty thousand taels to five hundred thousand taels directly. They all looked towards the direction of the voice.
"Father, you…" Wu Hui had never thought that his father would make such a bid.
...
"Hui Er, just bid for anything you want in this auction, and the entire Wu Family will be your backer." Wu Haiya kindly patted Wu Hui's head, his eyes filled with love.
For a moment, tears blurred Wu Hui's vision.
...
Five hundred thousand!
In everyone's eyes, this price was obviously higher than the value of the useless Fire Martial Skill. They looked at Wu Family with a bit of envy and a bit of the expression of one looking at a nouveau riche.
...
"What a super family! They are so rich."
" Wu Family and Wang Family are both large clans in Xin Si City. I wonder which of them will be able to obtain the Fire Martial Skill."
"I don’t think Wang Family will win. They did not even take action when it came to the previous lots."
...
Many people were discussing about the result in the bidding block. Amongst the group of Wang Family, Huang Ziwei's face had already turned purple as he stared fiercely at Wu Hui and Wu Haiya. His face trembled for a moment, and in the end, he sat down in anger, but did not make a sound. It was not because Huang Ziwei could not afford it, but because the current situation of Wang Family was entirely due to him, and the others in Wang Family were obviously not willing to help him. He could only suppress the anger in his heart.
On the platform, when Liu Qianqian heard Wu Haiya's bid, the smile on her face became even wider, and she thought to herself that she finally suffered less losses.
"Wu Family’s Wu Haiya bids five hundred thousand taels. Are there any higher bids?" Liu Qianqian asked three times in a row, but no one bid anymore.
"Alright, congratulations Wu Haiya, the patriarch of Wu Family, for obtaining Fire Martial Skill, Flame Palm." Liu Qianqian sent someone to deliver the scroll of Fire Palm to Wu Haiya and both sides checked the goods on the spot.
When Wu Haiya saw Wu Hui's passionate gaze, a smile appeared on his resolute face, and he said, "Yesterday, I heard that you went to Treasure Pavilion to search for Fire Martial Skill, but although there were a lot of martial skills in Wu Family, there was no one who specifically collected the scrolls of Fire Martial Skill. That’s because no one in Wu Family has activated the fire attribute. But I never thought that there will be a Fire Martial Skill in this auction this time. I'll give it to you when we get back."
...
"Thank you, Father." Wu Hui's face showed some excitement. Although it was said that Fire Martial Skill could only be effectively used by those people with prime fire attributes, Wu Hui was very confident in himself. He had amazing physique that only exited in legends, and with the help of the Five Elements Arts, Wu Hui believed that Fire Martial Skill would be able to display a strong power in his hands.
"However, Hui Er, I still have to remind you. Although you have Fire Martial Qi, you have only a secondary fire attribute physique. It’s ok for you to cultivate Fire Martial Skill, but you can't have the order reversed and delay the cultivation of wood martial skill. Your Green Wood Fist is almost at the third level, and in the future, I believe that you will be able to cultivate to the third level before you reach the Earth Grade, and become the first person in Wu Family that can cultivate the Green Wood Fist to the third level when you are at the Profound Grade." Seeing Wu Hui's excited expression, Wu Haiya was slightly stunned, and could not help but remind him.
"Yes, father. I’ll act with propriety." Wu Hui was somewhat moved. How could he not understand his father's concern? It was just that there were some things that he still could not tell his father. Body of five elements and Five Elements Arts were capitals that would help to make him stronger. It was better for less people to know it before he truly became stronger.
Wu Haiya saw his son's young but confident face, his eyes slightly moist. It had been many years since he had seen the confidence on Wu Hui's face, and compared to seven years ago, when Wu Hui was very influential, the confidence on his face seemed a little more mature and stable.
...
The auction was going on, and the atmosphere in the bidding block gradually rose. The superior first grade pills were auctioned once again, and there were two of them. In the end, a medium clan in Xin Si City bought them for eight hundred thousand taels. In the front row of the bidding block, although the three great families had bid a few times, they didn’t bid up too much. The family which had bid least was Wang Family, who had only bought an advanced Yellow Grade cultivation method for three hundred thousand taels.
At this time, a figure had already disappeared from the group of Wu Family.
"Qinglan, where did Wu Hui go?" Wu Haiya, who was originally paying attention to the auction, turned his head and wanted to speak with Wu Hui. However, he found that Wu Hui was no longer in his position, so he softly asked Hai Qinglan, who had sat beside Wu Hui. This place was not like Wu Family, if he were to encounter people from other clans who were looking for trouble, with Wu Hui's current cultivation, he would definitely suffer a loss.
“He said that it was boring, so he went back first." Hai Qinglan replied with a smile on her face, her gaze drifting to a person who had just entered. This person was in his forties. His skin was rough and dark, and he had a beard that covered his entire face. He gave Hai Qinglan a look before sitting down in a corner of the bidding block.
"This Wu Hui is too bold, and he actually dared to put on a disguise in this bidding block where experts of Heaven grade were gathered." Hai Qinglan was a little worried in her heart. Although she knew that normal experts of heaven grade would not be able to discover Wu Hui’s disguise pill, the Innate Expert, or even the experts of Nine-star of Heaven Grade, who had come in contact with the Power of Heaven and Earth, would still be able to sense Wu Hui's true appearance.
When Wu Hui came in, not only Hai Qinglan, even Huang Ziwei and Wang Chuan who were in the group of Wang Family also looked at Wu Hui. Huang Ziwei's face had a sinister look, his gaze was filled with anger, and with a sound of bang, the teacup in his hand was crushed. Wang Yunfei saw Huang Ziwei's expression and a thought occurred to him. He pointed to the person and asked Huang Ziwei, "Is that the person who made the bet with you guys, the person who concocted the pill?"
"Yes, Patriarch. I suspect that he is a Pill Master with prime fire attribute. Betting with me is like someone dressing as a pig to eat the tiger. I have fallen for his trap." Although Huang Ziwei was furious, but after thinking about it, the black-faced man’s level of concocting pills were indeed higher than his, and was simply teasing him. The black-faced man was able to collect the pill smoothly, and the reason that man had collected the pill quickly was that he wanted to trick Huang Ziwei again. Fortunately, Wang Chuan had stopped him, so he did not continue to bet with him.
"A Pill Master with prime fire attribute." Huang Ziwei's words gave Wang Yunfei a huge shock. The achievements of Pill Masters with prime fire attribute were generally very great. It was said that the number one pill master of Tianfeng Empire, Yao Wuli, who was a Grade Four Pharmacist, had prime fire attribute.
"This kind of Pill Masters must be roped in. Although Medium Storage Rings are precious, they are still far inferior to Pill Masters with Fire Attributes. At that time, it was too unwise of you two to even go against him." Wang Yunfei's expression became agitated, and reprimanded Wang Chuan and Huang Ziwei, causing Huang Ziwei to be unhappy.
