Chapter 40: Something is wrong. Could it be a parallel world?
Plate crystal is a high-quality hair crystal that contains a hidden weapon, the Dragon Beard Needle. This hidden weapon can also be ranked in the top ten in the Tang Sect.
The dragon beard needle is as thin as a dragon's beard. Inputting soul power can turn it into a dragon beard needle. When the soul power is dissipated, the dragon beard needle will curl up.
If a person who is hit by this hidden weapon does not use the correct method to remove the needle, the flesh will be pulled out together.
Moreover, this dragon beard needle can break the astral energy, and even a Soul Saint like Zhao Wuji cannot resist it.
Although Qi Tian doesn't know the hidden weapon launching techniques from the Hidden Weapon Hundred Solutions, using hair crystals to torture people is also pretty good.
The most important thing is that buying the plate crystal can give Tang San one less hidden weapon method.
"Boss, how much is this crystal?" Qi Tian asked.
Flander, lying on the recliner, glanced at Qi Tian and saw through his soul power at a glance, and calculated his financial resources based on it.
"After reaching the twelfth level of soul power and breaking through to the soul master level, one can receive one gold soul coin per month. If he receives it for a year, that would be twelve gold soul coins."
"Twenty gold soul coins!" said Flander.
When Qi Tian heard the number of twenty gold soul coins, he pretended to struggle and took a while to open his purse. He poured the gold soul coins, silver soul coins, and bronze soul coins onto the counter and lined them up to count them.
Flander saw the number of coins at a glance. There were a little over twenty-three gold soul coins in total. He cursed inwardly, "Poor bastard!"
He didn't regret not selling it. After all, it was just a piece of broken crystal picked up from the ground. It was not worth much, so any profit he could make was good.
"Boss, here are twenty gold soul coins, please keep them!" Qi Tian pushed the money up.
"Three gold soul coins are missing!" said Flander.
"Isn't it twenty gold soul coins?" Qi Tian asked.
Flander smiled cunningly: "Boy, I'm talking about twenty-three gold soul coins. It's a bargain for you. Give me the gold soul coins!"
He reached out and snatched the purse from Qi Tian's hand.
But at this moment, his face changed, as if he had discovered something. He grabbed Qi Tian's wrist with his backhand and checked his bone age.
"What are you doing?" Qi Tian pretended to be panicked.
He could actually break free, his true dragon physique was nothing to be trifled with, and his physical strength was now comparable to that of a soul beast.
"You're only seven years old?" Flander let him go and asked in surprise.
Qi Tian nodded and said, "Can't a seven-year-old buy things? Give me back the money, I won't buy it!"
Flander quickly put away the money and threw the broken crystal to Qi Tian, saying, "We have settled the payment and the goods are not returnable."
"Boss, why are you still forcing me to buy something?" Qi Tian pretended to be aggrieved, but still put away the crystal.
Just as he was about to leave, Flander spoke again, "Boy, you are a soul master, right? Do you want to go to the Advanced Soul Master Academy?"
"Well, I see you have already reached level ten soul power at such a young age, so your talent for cultivation should be pretty good!"
"I know the vice-president of Shrek Academy. I can introduce you to study there. How about that?"
"Although the admission requirements of this academy are very strict, only Great Soul Masters under the age of twelve can be admitted, you should be able to meet this requirement after a few more years of training!"
Flander tried to persuade people patiently, but with a face as cunning as a shoe sole, he couldn't win people's trust at all.
Qi Tian has already got the crystal plate he wanted, and he doesn't want to play along with Flander anymore.
"Boss, you're just doing business, why are you trying to trick me with a soul master academy that's not even famous?"
Flander smirked and said, "Shrek Academy isn't famous because it practices elite education and only accepts monsters."
"In the fifteen years since Shrek was founded, we've only accepted thirty-six students, and only nineteen have graduated. We have a very strict admissions and graduation system."
"But every student who graduates from Shrek Academy is an elite from the continent."
"The most outstanding one has now become an elder of the Spirit Hall! What do you think? Would you like to consider it?"
Flander still uses the same rhetoric, and can only fool people like Dai Mubai.
"The elder of the Spirit Hall? I wonder what his name is? Is it Qin Ming?" Qi Tian asked.
Flander frowned: "Qin Ming? There is no one named Qin Ming in Shrek Academy."
"Isn't it Qin Ming?" Qi Tian was stunned. Wasn't Qin Ming one of the first students of Shrek Academy?
He inexplicably recalled his behavior of asking Bibi Dong to intercept Qin Ming. Could it be that Qin Ming is really in the Spirit Hall now?
Could it be that I went back to the past instead of going to a parallel world?
Thinking of this, Qi Tian no longer wanted to get entangled with Flander, so he spoke out to expose his lies.
"Boss, but I heard that the lowest level of the Spirit Hall elders is Titled Douluo!"
"Even a guest elder holding the Pope's Order must be a Soul Saint like the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's Sect Master, right?"
"According to you, all the graduates of Shrek have become Titled Douluo now?"
"Shrek has been established for fifteen years, which means the first batch of graduates are only twenty-seven years old."
"A twenty-seven-year-old Titled Douluo! Shrek Academy is truly amazing!"
Flander's face froze. He had never joined the Spirit Hall, so how could he know the cultivation level of the Spirit Hall's elders?
At the same time, he was a little confused about Qi Tian's background.
Anyone who has this kind of insight is definitely not an ordinary person.
"Boy, are you really not going to think about it?"
Flander stood up from the recliner, his spirit possessed him, and seven spirit rings under his feet were rhythmically moving. He was obviously a Soul Saint.
"If you are willing to join Shrek, I can teach you personally!" said Flander.
He has already accepted Ma Hongjun, and it will be the same if he accepts Qi Tian.
Flander revealed his spirit and soul ring, hoping to use his Soul Saint cultivation to intimidate Qi Tian.
In the past, when he kidnapped little geniuses, he relied on this trick to scare and deceive the students' parents, and it always worked.
But Qi Tian had even seen Titled Douluo by borrowing Bibi Dong's body, so how could he be intimidated by a Soul Saint like him?
"No need, boss. I have my own training plan!"
After Qi Tian finished speaking, he left the grocery store despite the pressure of Flander's soul power.
He was not worried that Flander would do anything out of line. Although Flander was cunning and greedy for money, he was also a man with dreams. If he couldn't deceive people, he wouldn't use force.
Sure enough, after Qi Tian left the grocery store, Flander put away his spirit and watched Qi Tian leave.
He murmured, "What a little monster! He actually withstood a ray of my soul power and left like that?"
"It's a pity that such a little monster is not easy to deceive. I have to improve my words."
"So the Spirit Hall's elders are all Titled Douluo?"
"It seems we can't use this example anymore. If the elders can't use it, then let's change the highest achievement of the students to the bishop of the Spirit Hall!"
Qi Tian didn't know that his words actually allowed Flander to perfect his deception skills.
But Qi Tian didn't care. What he cared about now was whether his soul had traveled to a parallel world or returned to the past?
