As mentioned before, Bluestone City wasn't a big city.
However, because it was close to the vast Great Desolate, it was considered prosperous by relying on the demon beast trade.
Many itinerant cultivators and sect disciples who wanted to enter the vast Great Desolate had to replenish their supplies here.
There were even merchants who took the risk to trade with the alien races in the vast Great Desolate to earn huge profits.
It was also because of this that the black market in Bluestone City was particularly prosperous. The cultivators here were not inferior to those in other main cities.
Exquisite was heading to a gathering place for cultivators in Bluestone City.
She was prepared to go and see if there were any suitable missions for her to earn some extra money to complete the mission.
She had heard before that many rogue cultivators would temporarily form a team here and then go to the vast wilderness to try their luck.
Of course, she also had a faster way to earn money.
After all, there were hundreds of talismans drawn by Jiang Fan in the jade pendant.
This was undoubtedly a hot commodity for itinerant cultivators who wanted to explore the vast wilderness.
Exquisite couldn't say for sure what price it would sell for, but it wouldn't be cheap. It might even be at a premium in a place like this.
However, she did not intend to do so.
Since she knew that earning money was her master's training, why would she sell the talismans her master drew to earn money?
On the way, she kept thinking about what mission she should take.
First of all, it would definitely not work if it was too time-consuming.
He did not plan to stay outside for too long.
Secondly, it would be best if it could be completed within Bluestone City.
Secondly…
Just as she was thinking about it, there was a sudden commotion beside her.
She looked up in confusion and saw people rushing in a certain direction.
"What happened?"
She was pushed in a direction by the crowd.
The people around her were bustling with activity. Amidst the chaotic sounds, she finally understood.
In that direction, someone was setting up an arena.
Her interest was piqued. This place was very close to the gathering place of cultivators.
One could imagine that this person was here specifically for cultivators.
She tiptoed and wanted to take a look, but she was too short and was covered by shadows. She was very annoyed.
After looking around, she found a spot. With a light tap of her toes, her figure flew up and landed on a stone lion not far away. She was just in time to see the arena.
A burly man who looked like a farmer saw this and gave him a thumbs up."Little girl, what a handsome move."
Ling Long smiled, looking indescribably cute. Seeing that someone was talking to her, she took the opportunity to ask.
"Uncle, who is the person setting up the arena?”
She could feel the faint Yuan Qi emanating from the burly man and knew that he was also a cultivator.
"It's the eldest son of the Guo family. The head of the Guo family is the city lord of Bluestone City." His son, Guo Huai, had been sent to Li River Sword Sect to cultivate and had gained some skills. He heard that he had just returned yesterday and had set up this arena today.”
Before he could finish, a thin man carrying a carrying pole and wearing a bamboo hat interrupted.
"Isn't that so? I heard that before Guo Huai joined the Li River Sword Sect, he was already known as the number one genius of Bluestone City. Relying on his talent, he was very arrogant and domineering in Bluestone City. This time, he had restrained himself a lot.”
The burly man grinned." I guess he's learned a lot from the outside world and doesn't dare to be arrogant anymore." However, I heard that this time, he is quite ambitious and is preparing to test the Ranking List of Young Masters. This arena is just a warm-up, so I'm looking forward to it.”
"Ranking List of Young Masters."
Exquisite was deep in thought.
When she was at home, she had heard that the Six Fan School of the imperial court only listed Qi Condensation cultivators.
There were 100 spots, and they weren't ranked based on cultivation level, but battle strength.
Those who could be on the rankings were all geniuses.
Just as they were speaking, the people in the ring also spoke.
This was a young man in his twenties. He wore a green robe and cupped his hands at the crowd with a smile on his face.
"I am Guo Huai, an inner disciple of the Li River Sword Sect, the eldest son of the Guo family of Bluestone City. Today, I boldly set up an arena to challenge the heroes of the four directions. Anyone who is within the seventh level of Qi Refinement can come up and challenge. The winner could take away 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.”
With a wave of his hand, the servants behind him opened the boxes at the same time. The sparkling spirit stones dazzled everyone's eyes.
Everyone below gasped at the same time.
Wealth was alluring, not to mention that these were spirit stones that were scarce in the cultivation world.
Spiritual stones played an important role in almost all aspects of cultivation, such as cultivation, formation, alchemy, and treatment.
This was the currency recognized by the Cultivation world, and it was more precious than gold in the mortal world.
Although they were only low-grade spirit stones, there were ten thousand of them. This was already a rare amount of wealth for Qi Condensation cultivators.
Instantly, the breathing of the people below became rough.
Exquisite's mouth was wide open at the same time, and her eyes were almost glowing red.
Money! So much money!
There was a small pavilion behind the arena. On the second floor of the pavilion, two people sat side by side in the main seat. There were all kinds of exquisite desserts on the tea table beside them.
One of them was a middle-aged man who was about four o'clock in the morning, and the other was an old man with a beard and hair of fifty years old.
The old man was dressed in green, similar to Guo Huai in the arena.
The middle-aged man raised his teacup and offered the old man a cup of tea."Elder Xu, my son is indebted to you for taking care of him in Li River Sword Sect.”
The middle-aged man was the City Lord of Bluestone City, Guo Shi.
The old man was Xu Shizong, one of the five outer sect elders of Li River Sword Sect.
The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile," City Lord Guo is too polite. Huai 'er's talent is extraordinary. This time, he returned to the vast wilderness to find a medicinal herb to break through. The arena was just a convenience. If he could succeed, he might be able to become a core disciple and even have a place on the Ranking List of Young Masters.”
Guo Shi smiled and nodded. He took a sip of tea and turned his gaze back to the arena.
As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward. Moreover, this was no longer a heavy reward.
Even some fortuitous encounters in the vast Great Desolate were only so-so.
Immediately, three figures jumped onto the arena.
"Li Hu, Three Mountains Sect, sixth level Qi Disciple, ningmai!”
"Wu Yuan, Luofu Sect, sixth level Qi Refinement, ningmai!”
"Wang Dang, rogue cultivator, sixth level Qi Disciple, ningmai!”
The three of them introduced themselves. Guo Huai smiled and cupped his hands," Guo Huai, Li River Sword Sect, sixth level Qi Disciple, ningmai!”
"In order to save time, the three of you can attack together.”
