200,000 Gold Soul Coins Wouldn't Even Be Enough to Throw Away

"If you're willing, the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect would be happy to offer 100,000 Gold Soul Coins for your Core Array!" Ning Tian saw that Chu Feng seemed interested and was delighted. She hurriedly named her price.

After all, a Level 2 Soul Tool was worth only a few hundred Gold Soul Coins. Offering 100,000 was already a show of great sincerity.

But when Chu Feng heard the price, his face darkened.

"If I put this Level 2 Soul Tool up for auction, it'd fetch more than 100,000 Gold Soul Coins. You open with 100,000—do you think I'm some beggar you can fob off?" Chu Feng looked at Ning Tian, disappointment plain in his eyes.

If he revealed what his Milk Bottle could do, then even though it was only a Level 2 Soul Tool, its revolutionary effects would drive every research-focused Soul Engineer completely crazy. After all, if they could analyze its Core Array, it would be worth far more than 100,000 Gold Soul Coins.

Given the price he had in mind, and factoring in the Milk Bottle's future commercial value, a Level 2 core like this could sell for at least 5,000,000 Gold Soul Coins.

Yet Ning Tian had offered just 100,000. Wasn't that an insult?

"200,000 Gold Soul Coins. That's the highest price I can offer! Don't be insatiable!"

"Chu Feng, I don't know where you got the method for making this Core Array, but I guarantee you can't bring out its full potential on your own. 200,000 Gold Soul Coins for a Level 2 Core Array is already far beyond what it's worth!"

Seeing Chu Feng's dark expression, Ning Tian gritted her teeth and spoke in a low voice.

No matter how incredible this Milk Bottle was, its core was still only Level 2. Only the enormous team of Soul Engineers at the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect could fully study it. Perhaps they could even work out how to make Level 3 or higher Core Arrays!

In Chu Feng's hands, this array would forever remain a Level 2 array. It was a complete waste of a treasure!

"200,000 Gold Soul Coins wouldn't even be enough for me to throw away. Ning Tian, you've disappointed me. If you're really sincere, send someone of some importance from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to talk to me." Chu Feng shook his head, clearly disappointed.

He had thought that Ning Tian, the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, might have some real ability. He hadn't expected her to be so short-sighted. He'd been looking forward to this for ages, too.

Trash.

"Chu Feng, are you insane? That's 200,000 Gold Soul Coins! How can you say it's not even enough to throw away? You're just bragging. You've probably never seen that much money in your life!"

At that moment, Wu Feng, who was sitting nearby, heard Chu Feng's contemptuous reply to Ning Tian and exploded!

She didn't understand Soul Tools, but Ning Tian had offered such a high price—that was already showing Chu Feng plenty of respect. She hadn't expected him to be so greedy. He was completely unreasonable!

"Hmph! What's 200,000 Gold Soul Coins?"

"Chu Feng sold a hamburger recipe for 1,000,000 Gold Soul Coins. Your Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect calls itself one of the richest sects, and you think 200,000 is worth bragging about?" Wang Dong, sitting nearby, couldn't take it anymore and chimed in.

Though Wang Dong usually couldn't stand Chu Feng showing off in front of her, she had long since been won over by his strength and charm. Now that she'd heard Wu Feng insult him, she naturally stood up for him.

Of course, she also took the chance to show off her wealth.

Wu Feng and Ning Tian were from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and were probably the two richest people in the class. They showed off their wealth all the time. Now that she finally had a chance to do the same, she wasn't about to let it pass.

"W-what? 1,000,000 Gold Soul Coins!" Ning Tian stared blankly. She'd tasted one of Chu Feng's hamburgers, and it really was a delicacy fit for the gods. But she hadn't expected some Sucker to offer 1,000,000 Gold Soul Coins for the recipe. When had the world gotten so crazy?

"You're lying! How could a recipe sell for 1,000,000?" Though Wu Feng felt a little jealous, she still put on an unconvinced expression.

"Enough."

Seeing that Wang Dong still wanted to say more, Chu Feng finally spoke up, cutting off their verbal fight.

He hated this kind of squabbling. It was pointless, and it wasted breath and time.

"Hmph!"

"Hmph!"

Wang Dong and Wu Feng both snorted, neither willing to back down.

"Ning Tian, Wu Feng, you can leave now. I still have Soul Tools to make. If you're really sincere, you should have your father come talk to me." Chu Feng turned to Ning Tian and spoke calmly, bluntly showing them the door.

Ning Tian's father was the sect master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Surely his judgment was better.

"All right. I'll pass this along." Ning Tian nodded and left with Wu Feng.

She still thought Chu Feng was too greedy, but the Core Array was undeniably valuable and would greatly benefit the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. She would certainly tell her father about it.

"Hmph! She's got a little money and thinks she can act all high and mighty!"

After the two left, Wang Dong grumbled in displeasure. Though the Clear Sky Sect kept to itself, its foundation was in no way inferior to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's, so she naturally wasn't about to back down.

"All right, what's there to argue about? Besides, who knows—maybe they'll be begging me to make Soul Tools for them someday." Chu Feng came over and smiled as he tried to comfort her.

It wasn't that he had a good temper. In his eyes, Ning Tian and the others were just kids. They were all well-developed, but their minds were still immature. He genuinely couldn't be bothered to talk back and forth with them.

All he wanted now was money. One million was far from enough; ten million might just about do. If he had a few billion Gold Soul Coins, that would be enough to establish a super Soul Engineer academy.

"Hmph. I just can't stand them looking down on you!"

Wang Dong turned her head away and grumbled.

"Chu Feng, what's so special about the Milk Bottle you made? Why was Ning Tian so worked up about it?" Xiao Xiao finally couldn't hold back and hurriedly asked, full of curiosity.

"Try it yourself and you'll see." Chu Feng recharged the Milk Bottle he'd taken back from Ning Tian, then handed it to Xiao Xiao.

"Oh..."

Xiao Xiao quickly dispersed her Soul Power, then took the Milk Bottle and began absorbing...

The next moment, her beautiful eyes widened, disbelief filling them. Her expression was exactly like Ning Tian's earlier.

"It's... so gentle!!!" Xiao Xiao finally understood why Ning Tian had been so worked up.

This Milk Bottle was completely different from the ones on the market. It could even be said to have immense strategic value!

Just this one Milk Bottle was worth far more than an ordinary Level 2 Soul Tool. It was absolutely on par with a typical Level 3 Soul Tool—and its research value went far beyond that.

And judging by Chu Feng, he could make one Milk Bottle very quickly, with almost no effort. Even if he sold each one for just 1,000 Gold Soul Coins, making 100 would bring in 100,000. What's more, Chu Feng's Milk Bottle was no ordinary one. It was definitely worth far more than that.

Ning Tian had offered 200,000 Gold Soul Coins. It really was an insult.

"Is it really that amazing?"

"Let me see..."

Wang Dong snatched the Milk Bottle from Xiao Xiao and absorbed the remaining Soul Power. Then...

She froze too.
