Monarch Of Time

Chapter 37 - 37 Arena Match

Shun Long was already interested in participating at the auction, but now that he heard that the last 2 ingredients he needed would probably appear there, attending the auction 15 days from now became one of his top priorities.

ʼʼSenior, after deducting the cost for the 40 sets of rank 1 herbs, the ʼwhite-root Ganodermaʼ, the ʼblood lotusʼ and the ʼblack-tongued pythonʼsʼ poison, our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ still owes senior 844 sect points for the ʼQi barrier-breakingʼ pills.ʼʼ

Yin Xing said, as he took out his sect identifying jade, and transferred the remaining amount to Shun Long.

Shun Long then, suddenly noticed a problem... he didnʼt have a spatial ring to carry all the stuff that he had bought today.

He took a deep breath as he thickened his face and said to Yin Xing

ʼʼI will also need a big bag.ʼʼ

Yin Xing looked like he didnʼt understand until Shun Long pointed at a finger on his right hand and said

ʼʼRecently I met with an accident and my spatial ring was stolen. Until I find the culprit and get it back, I obviously have to carry everything myself. Hence why I wear these black robes, so I donʼt get recognized while carrying my stuff with me.ʼʼ

Even Shun Long admired himself and his ability to spout nonsense in broad daylight.

Yin Xing showed a look of understanding as if he had just now realized the seniorʼs predicament and he said to Mei Yi

ʼʼQuickly bring a bag for senior.ʼʼ

Mei Yi rushed out and soon returned with a big black bag that Shun Long filled with the ingredients on the table.

Yin Xingʼs and Wong Boʼs eyes twitched, watching those ingredients worth over 1000 sect points fill a bag like they were some kind of cheap goods that you could pick up from the side of the road, but they didnʼt dare comment on it.

Although Shun Longʼs face was pretty thick and could ignore their reactions, he still had bought everything that he needed from this trip of his to the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ, so he bade farewell to Yin Xing and the rest as he left to return back to his room at the inn.

After Shun Long left the appraisal room, Yin Xing looked at Wong Bo and Mei Yi and said

ʼʼYou guys did very well today. But remember, if in the future this senior returns to our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ, you must make sure to inform me immediately.ʼʼ

On the way back, Shun Long first found an isolated corner near the inn he was staying at and after switching back to his outer disciple robes, he returned to his room where he placed the big black bag that was full of medicinal ingredients on the floor.

Shun Long sighed as he said

ʼʼIt really is difficult to walk around without a spatial ring. I need to obtain one soon or in the future I will be in trouble if I have to carry so much stuff again by myself.ʼʼ

Although Shun Long had said that, he knew that a spatial ring was definitely very expensive if even fatty Fu didnʼt have one yet, but he was determined to inquire about it the next time he visited the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ.

After Shun Long left the black bag with the ingredients in his room, he went to find the inn-keeper to pay the 4 sect points for the next month as well.

As Shun Long now had 845 sect points on his ʼsect identifying jadeʼ, the measly 4 sect points that his room costed for a month didnʼt mean much to him now.

After paying the inn-keeper, Shun Long decided to eat outside today. Although he had eaten the food that the inn delivered at his room every day, it was food of the lowest quality, and having to eat that for a month, had already made his stomach grumble.

Although Shun Long couldnʼt be considered rich right now, with 841 sect points on him, he was definitely not poor anymore, so he chose a relatively good restaurant to eat.

He ate both meat and vegetables until he was full, and although the wine here couldnʼt compare to the ʼMystifying Fragrance Pavilionʼsʼ, it was still much better than the plain water he drank every day for the past month that he was locked inside his room.

Shun Long stopped a young man who was running and asked

ʼʼExcuse me brother, why is everyone in such a hurry?ʼʼ

The young man that Shun Long had stopped looked at him as if he was an alien and said

ʼʼHavenʼt you heard? Today is the arena match between Xiao Juyan and Lei Pong. The winner will advance into the top 100 ranks of the arena.ʼʼ

As soon as this disciple finished his explanation, he ran towards the east of the city.

ʼʼArena matches? How interesting.ʼʼ

Shun Long thought to himself as he too followed the rushing crowd.
