In response to Xiao Yu's cries, Xiao Tian scoffed and said, "I'll let you go if you promise I won't cause any more trouble."
"Good!"
However, Xiao Tian naturally didn't believe Xiao Yu. He pressed Xiao Tian Xiao Yu's hands behind her head with one hand, then tore his own clothes, pulled out a long rope, and used it as handcuffs to tie Xiao Yu's hands.
" Xiao Tian! What are you doing!"
The people in the tribe were all stunned!
Not only did Xiao Tian, Two-Star Dou Zhe, defeat Xiao Yu, Four-Star Dou Zhe, but now he's even resorting to kidnapping!
Xiao Tian snorted, " Xiao Yu, I'll teach you to make a scene. If you keep yelling, I'll tie your legs up too."
"Damn it! Xiao Tian, don't be so smug! If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't fight here and I didn't have a sword, I would have chopped off your legs!"
"Oh ho! You're still being stubborn, aren't you!" Xiao Tian tore a large piece of silk from his tattered clothes, made a ball, and intended to gag Xiao Yu.
"What are you doing!" An elder from the Dou Technique Pavilion appeared, his face darkening upon seeing Xiao Tian and Xiao Yu's actions.
Xiao Tian released Xiao Yu and retreated sharply, ending up back near Xun'er.
" Xun'er, let's go. This crazy girl is too noisy."
Xun'er giggled and said, "It's all because you, Brother Tian, asked for a beating."
Xiao Tian: "..."
After Xiao Tian and Xun'er finished registering their Dou Technique, Xiao Yu followed behind with an angry expression. If it weren't for Xiao Zhan and the elders, she would have kicked them directly.
"I'm off! See you tonight, Xun'er."
Xiao Yu was very unhappy and depressed. She took the Dou Technique home and cried to her parents.
" Yu'er, I happen to know a tutor at the Jia Nan Academy. In previous years, they only recruited students from major cities, but this year they might come to our Wutan City."
" Jia Lan Academy, what kind of place is that?"
" Jia Nan Academy, I've heard it's the most famous Dou Qi academy on the continent."
"I must get into the Jia Lan Academy!" Xiao Yu clenched her fists as she thought of the hateful Xiao Tian.
That evening, Xiao Tian was eating and drinking at Xun'er when suddenly Xiao Zhan showed up at the door.
" Tian'er, this evening, one of our family's markets was vandalized." Xiao Zhan said with a dark expression, "Just tonight, the Jia Lie Clan brought in a batch of Blood Coagulation Powder. Its effects are similar to the Rejuvenation Powder made by our family's alchemists, but the price is lower. Currently, many customers in the pill market are leaving and going to the Jia Lie Clan."
Xiao Tian frowned and asked, "Father, what is the quality of the Rejuvenation Powder made by the family's alchemists?"
Xiao Zhan truthfully replied, "It's not as good as the quality of what you brothers refine and then dilute with water—no, anyway, it's not as good as the quality of what you refine."
Xiao Zhan looked slightly embarrassed; he was afraid of getting beaten up if he said the pills were diluted with water.
Xiao Tian wasn't surprised by the unusual practice of diluting the ingredients with water. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Father, it seems the Jia Lie Clan has a new alchemist."
Xiao Zhan's eyes showed a look of satisfaction as he said, "That's right, the Jia Lie Clan has recruited a Third-Rank Alchemist."
" Third-Rank Alchemist." Xiao Tian's expression was strange, as if he had remembered something.
"Father, are the Jia Lie Clan and the Ao Ba Family Clan currently buying up medicinal herbs on the market?"
Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "You guessed right, our three major families are currently vying for medicinal herbs on the market."
Xiao Tian smiled and said, "Father, the medicinal materials needed for our Rejuvenation Powder and the Blood Coagulation Powder are different, aren't they? Why don't we make a fortune and take care of that Third-Rank Alchemist while we're at it?"
Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up, but he couldn't help but frown and say, " Tian'er, your idea is good, but this Third-Rank Alchemist is very well protected; even Da Dou Shi would have difficulty getting close."
