NOVEL NEXT Chapter 187.2
“Young master, look, one Core Formation Beast can be sold for more than two thousand spirit stones, and that doesn’t include the price of the beast pill,” Cheng Qi said, pointing to the light mirror on the wall.
The two of them passed by the Hunter Guild, and Cheng Qi discovered that spirit beasts were also purchased there, with prices clearly marked according to their types and cultivation levels. Judging from the price, it was higher than what they had just heard about in other trading houses.
“Is this your first time coming to the Hunter Guild? Do you need help?” The cultivator in charge of reception in the outer hall saw the two of them entering and walked over to ask.
“We have a few preys we want to trade,” Cheng Qi replied, looking at the cultivator. There were really many foundation-establishment cultivators in Alliance City; even the receptionists in any store had foundation-establishment cultivation.
“This place only accepts prey from members. If you two want to trade spirit beasts, you must join the guild first,” Ji Xiao said, observing the two cultivators and noting that they were both foundation-establishment cultivators.
“What are the requirements for joining the Hunter Guild?” Cheng Qi asked, suspicious. He hadn’t expected that they would have to join the guild first to sell their prey.
Ji Xiao explained, “It’s not difficult to join. Each Huang-level member only needs to pay one hundred spiritual stones, and they can take on yellow-level tasks in the guild in the future. If you complete one hundred tasks within three years, you can upgrade to the Xuan-level. If you’re a high-level member and do not accept a mission for three years, your membership will be automatically cancelled.”
Cheng Qi wrinkled his nose when he heard the hundred spiritual stones. Did they really have to pay the spirit stones first before they could sell their things? Sure enough, there was no free lunch.
“What are the general huang-level tasks?” Li Tianyan asked.
“The huang-level tasks mostly involve spiritual beasts in the Qi condensation period, or finding huang-level spiritual grass. Generally, they can be completed by foundation-establishment cultivators or less. Of course, each task will have a corresponding bounty,” Ji Xiao explained.
After thinking for a while, Li Tianyan decided to put his name down. They were selling the core formation beast, and the price difference for a single head was nearly a hundred spirit stones. It didn’t matter even if they didn’t accept the mission and it got cancelled.
The two of them only spent a hundred spirit stones to sell their prey. After Li Tianyan received the Hunter Guild waist card, he was finally allowed into the exchange in the inner hall while Cheng Qi stood waiting in the outer hall.
In less than half a moment, Li Tianyan was invited out by an old man. “Ji Xiao, help this person get promoted to a Xuan-level member.”
“Yes.” Ji Xiao was a little surprised when he heard Manager Chen’s instructions.
Usually, only core formation cultivators could be promoted to Xuan-level members right away, or they could sell tens of thousands of spirit stones in one transaction. These two were just foundation-establishment cultivators. What could they possibly sell that was worth tens of thousands of spirit stones? Ji Xiao couldn’t help but feel curious.
After seeing the two of them leave the Hunter Guild, Ji Xiao sneaked into the inner hall and asked, “Manager Chen, what prey did that person sell just now?”
The old man sitting in the hall, keeping accounts, glanced at the head that came in and smiled. “The Twelve-Headed Beast King.”
“They actually have so many core formation beasts in their hands? I feel that these two are not simple; maybe they are high-level cultivators who are hiding their cultivation,” Ji Xiao said, rubbing his chin seriously.
“Okay, go out and work quickly, don’t be lazy here,” Manager Chen laughed and scolded when he saw that the boy was daydreaming again.
.
Cheng Qi counted the spiritual stones he had just received. Li Tianyan had only sold twelve Beast Kings this time, but in total, he had nearly 30,000 spiritual stones.
Afterward, the two of them entered a spiritual stone exchange office. The cultivator at the counter glanced at them and asked, “What spiritual stones do you want to exchange?”
“Exchanging low-grade products for medium-grade ones?” Li Tianyan asked.
When the cultivator heard about the low-grade spiritual stones, he became obviously impatient. “The exchange rate for low-grade spiritual stones is two hundred to one.”
Li Tianyan frowned when he heard this number. Normally, one hundred low-grade spiritual stones were worth one medium-grade spirit stone, but here it was doubled.
However, there were few places to exchange spiritual stones on Infinite Island, and low-grade spiritual stones were just a pile of waste stones in his hands.
In the end, Li Tianyan took out a storage bag and said, “There are 2.4 million low-grade spiritual stones in it. Please exchange it for mid-grade.”
With some spiritual stones on hand, Li Tianyan and Cheng Qi were busy looking for a place to live in the city.

Zhao family in Alliance City
“Why is my son beaten like this?” Chen Feng’s parents were called to the Zhao family’s house early in the morning, and they couldn’t help but be shocked when they saw their badly injured son on the ground.
“Fourth sister, who hurt Chen Feng?” Chen Feng’s father, Chen Shun, looked at his sister with anger on his face and asked.
Their son had been accepted as a disciple by his fourth brother-in-law and was about to be promoted to Xuan-level alchemist in just a few years. The couple had placed their hopes on their son, and now that they saw him seriously injured, they naturally would not give up.
“I was the one who beat him. The one I beat was this ungrateful thing,” Zhao Yuan said with a cold snort.
“Brother-in-law? What did my son do? You want to hurt him like this? Even if he did something wrong, as an uncle and a master, you should just explain it properly. Why would you beat him like this?!” Chen Feng’s mother cried; her words full of accusations.
“I can’t be his uncle and master. It’s already magnanimous of me if I didn’t kill him,” Zhao Yuan’s face remained unmoved. If it hadn’t been for his wife’s sake, how could he have accepted Chen Feng as his apprentice? Unexpectedly, he had accepted a white-eyed wolf who had almost killed his own son.
Zhao Shubao’s mother didn’t look good either. Her son had almost never returned from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. Even now, she still felt scared whenever she thought about it.
