Chapter 5: Grinding Quests

Stepping out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Feiliu only then realized that the sect where the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was located was actually a massive castle.

The decor of this castle was extremely luxurious, and in terms of land area, it was almost as vast as the Prague Castle or Windsor Castle he had seen on the internet in his past life.

It fully demonstrated what it meant for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to be wealthy and imposing.

This castle of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could be said to be perfectly capable of accommodating fifty thousand people living within it without appearing the least bit crowded; on the contrary, there was still plenty of spare space.

However, Ning Feiliu was only slightly surprised for a moment before he hurriedly continued on toward his destination.

According to the original owner's memories, the place he was going to was the most prosperous commercial street in Heaven Dou City—Emperor Street.

Although it was a commercial street, it housed almost all of the most prosperous hotels, medical halls, and chambers of commerce in Heaven Dou City, and even the largest auction house in the Heaven Dou Empire—the Heaven Dou City Grand Auction House—was located here.

And at the end of the commercial street, there was what was known as the largest spirit fighting arena in the entire Douluo Continent—the Heaven Dou City Grand Spirit Arena.

In ordinary Great Spirit Arenas, like the one in Soto City where Shrek Academy was located, battles at the Soul Ancestor level might be rare.

He actually wanted to see the scenes of these martial soul battles with his own eyes.

And as soon as he walked inside, someone immediately came up to greet him.

But in the Heaven Dou City Grand Spirit Arena, spirit fighting battles between Soul Ancestor powerhouses were everywhere, and contests between Soul King powerhouses were even more common.

Soon, Ning Feiliu arrived at Emperor Street and directly found a medical hall that occupied a massive area.

The sign above it bore the five large characters: "Blood Agate Medical Hall."

What a strange name for a medical hall, but Ning Feiliu didn't care; as long as it was a medical hall, that was fine.

All in all, the visual experience was definitely better than a written description.

Ning Feiliu was also a bit curious; although he knew this was the Douluo Continent and roughly knew that they fought using martial souls.

"So that's how it is." The young apprentice suddenly realized and said, "Then, young master, you could consider asking my teacher to use a Healing Spirit Skill; the effect would be faster. My teacher is a level 40 healing-type Soul Ancestor, and the price for one session is only five Silver Soul Coins."

Ning Feiliu had already thought of a reason on his way here, and he said directly, "It's like this: I fell into the water and caught a chill not long ago, and having just recovered from a serious illness, I want some medicinal herbs to replenish my Qi and blood to nourish my body."

"This young master, have you suffered any injuries?" The young apprentice looked at him and asked.

After all, looking at Ning Feiliu, he had superior facial features and exquisite clothing: a moon-white outer robe with fine patterns embroidered on the collar, a delicate cyan silk shirt underneath, and a belt inlaid with over a dozen crystals.

Blood Agate?

Seeing such clothing that was exquisitely crafted yet did not overly flaunt wealth, the young apprentice could tell at a glance that Ning Feiliu was likely of noble birth or a Spirit Master, so he addressed him directly as "young master."

However, now was not the time to linger on visual experiences; he had more important things to do.

"But I see that your complexion is a bit poor, young master. Is there something wrong with your health?" the young apprentice asked.

But he had never seen them before; seeing and knowing were two completely different experiences.

"No..." Ning Feiliu shook his head.

Ning Feiliu looked at his attire and their similar age, and it seemed he was an apprentice at the medical hall.

Good heavens, just to have a healing-type Spirit Master take action once cost five Silver Soul Coins.

That was equivalent to the expenses of an ordinary family for two and a half months; it was truly expensive enough.

But for Ning Feiliu, who had the backing of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and was the son of the Sect Master, five Silver Soul Coins were nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

After all, Ning Feiliu's monthly allowance was one hundred Gold Soul Coins, which converted to one thousand Silver Soul Coins; a mere five Silver Soul Coins really didn't count for much.

If Ning Feiliu hadn't come here with other motives, he would have spent the money without hesitation.

But this time, he wasn't really here to see a doctor; he was here to get in touch with those medicinal herbs, those finished medicines, and those prescriptions!

"No need." Ning Feiliu pretended to be pained by the cost and refused directly, "I think medicinal supplementation is more gentle."

Seeing this, the young apprentice didn't show any signs of contempt like in those melodramatic stories and said, "Since that is the case, then please follow me, young master."

After all, a medical hall was in the business of serving people; the business of the poor was business, and the business of the rich was also business; there was no difference.

It was just that the medical hall certainly hoped to earn more money at once, and with Ning Feiliu looking like he was very wealthy based on his attire.

That was why the young apprentice had asked that.

Ning Feiliu followed the young apprentice into the interior of the medical hall, where a dazzling array of medicinal herbs and even pills were placed.

And here, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe was holding a book, seemingly studying it carefully.

"Teacher, this young master caught a chill after falling into the water and has lingering health issues; he wants some medicine to nourish his body," the young apprentice said to the middle-aged man.

Then he said to Ning Feiliu, "This young master, this is my teacher, Master Ji Boda."

Ning Feiliu was stunned for a moment, unable to believe his ears, "Ji... Ji what?"

The young apprentice was stunned for a moment and said, "Is something wrong? My teacher's name is 'Ji' from seasons, 'Bo' from erudite, and 'Da' from sensible and reasonable."

Ning Feiliu's mouth twitched, and his expression was strange, "It's nothing, so it's Doctor Ji..."

The language of the Douluo Continent was different from his mother tongue in his past life, and even if it were the same, the term "Jibo" belonged to the abstract homophonic slang of the Chinese internet era from his past life; this world might not necessarily understand it.

That healing-type Spirit Master named Ji Boda frowned, but he still looked at Ning Feiliu and asked, "This young master, may I ask how to address you?"

"Ning Feiliu." Ning Feiliu had no reservations and stated his name directly.

"Ning?" Ji Boda asked with sudden curiosity, "Young master wouldn't happen to be a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, would you?"

Ning Feiliu shook his head and said, "I just happen to share the same surname as the direct disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect; otherwise, why would I come to a medical hall to seek treatment?"

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was a large family with a massive business; there was basically nothing lacking within the sect. Let alone a direct disciple falling ill, even if an outer disciple were injured or sick, they could receive the full support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"That is true." Ji Boda stopped doubting and said, "Young master caught a lingering illness after falling into the water previously; looking at your pale complexion, your Qi and blood seem to be somewhat deficient."

"I have several types of pills here that can replenish Qi and blood: the Red Flame Deer Blood Pill, the Earth Jade Blood Pill, the Blood Lotus Pill, and the Tiger Bear Dual God Pill. Which one do you need, young master?"

As he spoke, he took out boxes one by one from the counter and opened them, revealing the pills inside.

And just at this moment, small entries that only he could see appeared one after another before Ning Feiliu's eyes.
