Chapter 176

Everyone was discussing the powerful effects of the Return Heaven Pill.

After all, the facts were right before their eyes; the wounded who had just needed to be carried in were now full of vigor in an instant.

Having this pill is like gaining an extra life!

"Martial Top Scholar, can I pre-order one?!"

"As long as the price doesn't exceed one million, I'll directly order five!"

"I want one too, I want one too!"

The crowd's enthusiastic attitude left Qin Ziyi overjoyed.

She quickly explained, "Friends, this pill is called the Return Heaven Pill; the patent belongs to our Huichuntang. It is expected to hit the market in about a month, priced at no more than eight hundred thousand. Those in need can line up to register!"

"Under eight hundred thousand? That's so cheap!"

"Conscience! No wonder it's the shop of the Martial Top Scholar—this price is truly conscientious!"

Xiao He hurried over, registering customer information; in no time, the deposit alone had collected nearly one million.

The back office of the pharmacy.

Lu Jing looked at the crowd outside lining up to pay deposits, puzzled, and asked, "Both the Return Heaven Pill and the Beneficial Qi Pill are high-grade medicines; why can the Return Heaven Pill be sold at a high price and yet be so popular?"

"Because the nature of the medicines differs," Qin Ziyi explained proudly, "The Return Heaven Pill is a healing pill; basically every martial artist keeps some on hand to guard against accidents. Therefore, such medicines are usually priced much higher than ordinary ones."

Being asked a question by the Martial Top Scholar filled Qin Ziyi's heart with satisfaction.

"I see."

Lu Jing quickly grasped the key point: medicines that enhance Blood Qi can be lacking, but one cannot lack life-saving medicines.

Even he himself kept a few top-grade healing pills in his ring, let alone others.

"Alright, I'm heading back."

Lu Jing took off his pharmacist's robe and washed his hands clean.

"By the way, send a batch of medicines to my house each month; the list is here, and the money can be deducted from my share."

Lu Jing took out a list and handed it to Qin Ziyi.

"Oh, okay!"

Qin Ziyi examined it carefully; the list contained some high-grade and top-grade medicines.

They are mainly for youths training in martial arts and middle-aged and elderly health maintenance.

Lu Jing is truly good to his family; these medicines alone cost at least over eight million per month...

However, once the Return Heaven Pill and Beneficial Qi Pill hit the market, this money will be merely a fraction of Lu Jing's share.

"Don't worry, it will definitely arrive on time," Qin Ziyi suddenly thought of something, "Are you going to attend a martial university?"

"Yes, in about twenty days or so, I'll be going to the capital."

Lu Jing nodded and walked out of the pharmacy room.

Qin Ziyi followed behind him honestly, "I will report the medicine sales to you each month."

"Mm."

Lu Jing said nothing more, pushed through the crowd, and left this place.

A few days later, the time to fill out applications arrived.

The Atlantlan Peninsula bustled again.

Several prestigious martial universities located in the capital successively sent people to pay visits.

"Everyone, I, on behalf of Anwu City, welcome your arrival!"

Martial Association President Xu Xingwu and the mayor led the group in front, speaking politely.

"May I ask which building Lu Jing's classmate lives in?"

The speaker was an admissions teacher from Cangling Martial University.

He had come this time under a death order; he must recruit the Martial Top Scholar Lu Jing.

The talent Lu Jing displayed in combat simulations was truly terrifying; as long as nothing unexpected happens, his future will at least reach the Martial Lord realm.

Before Xu Xingwu could even speak Lu Jing's address, the other martial university teachers beside him started arguing again.

"You Cangling Martial University are too impatient; our Lanshan Martial University hasn't even spoken yet."

"Haha, does your Lanshan Martial University even rank?"

"What, does your Lanshan Martial University not have as much strength as your Shogunate Martial University? If I recall correctly, the previous Martial Top Scholar was snatched by you using a beauty trap, right?"

"What beauty trap? Can't you speak properly? People came to our Shogunate Martial University to find their girlfriends; that was completely voluntary, alright!"

"Tsk tsk, why are you still so agitated? Could it be that you've been hit right on the mark?"

These people started arguing again, each turning red-faced and red-eared.

Xu Xingwu beside them felt a huge headache; these people were not ones he could provoke, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

Such a scene was indeed the first time he had encountered since taking office; these prestigious martial university teachers had traveled far and personally delivered admission notices to Lu Jing.

Previous Martial Top Scholars had never received such treatment; at most they got phone invitations. One must say the sincerity toward Lu Jing is overflowing.

However, while Xu Xingwu had a headache, he also felt a secret satisfaction.

As the Martial Association President of Anwu City, having produced this Martial Top Scholar Lu Jing, the higher-ups specially convened a meeting to commend him, making the neighboring city envy him to no end.

"Cough cough, everyone, we've arrived at Lu Jing's classmate's home."

Xu Xingwu gave a dry cough twice, drawing everyone's attention.

Seeing that these people had stopped arguing, Xu Xingwu then continued, "Everyone, shall I go fetch Lu Jing's classmate out?"

"No need!"

The Shogunate Martial University teacher waved his hand, "I came this time precisely to pay a personal visit; why would I let Lu Jing's classmate come out to greet me?"

Having said that, he proactively walked forward and rang the doorbell.

"Hey hey, what's the rush!"

Someone was unhappy, saying, "Our Orchid Mountain Martial University arrived first; do you not understand first come, first served!"

Several people again started arguing at Lu Jing's doorstep.

Just as Xu Xingwu didn't know what to do, the villa's gate slowly opened.

"What's all this fuss about first thing in the morning?"

Lu Leyi appeared outside the door with sleepy eyes, her morning grumpiness still on her face, her tone a bit impatient.

"This must be Lu Jing's sister, right? She's so pretty!"

The admissions teacher from Orchid Mountain Martial University was a middle-aged woman who stepped forward first and introduced herself:

"Little sister, I'm a teacher from Orchid Mountain Martial University, here to deliver your brother's admission notice!"

"Ah, this......"

Lu Leyi blinked in surprise, her mind not catching up for a moment.

Before the woman from Orchid Mountain Martial University could continue speaking, she was shoved aside by a teacher from the Shogunate Martial University next to her.

"Leyi, right? The teacher brought you a gift."

After saying that, she took out from her bag a hairpin inlaid with sparkling diamonds.

"This hairpin can calm the mind and is very beneficial for cultivation!"

Lu Leyi's eyes lit up; although she liked it very much, she didn't dare to accept it without Lu Jing's permission.

"Well done, Old Xu! You said it would be fair competition, but you're pulling this trick, huh!"

The sound of the crowd arguing also drew Feng Qinru over.

After understanding the purpose of the several teachers, she hurriedly invited them inside.

"Little Jing is still sleeping; this kid sleeps until noon every day......"

Feng Qinru said embarrassedly.
