Chapter 22: Stall

Old Li's words genuinely surprised him.

He looked at Old Li in astonishment and asked, his voice full of doubt, "Is that true? Is this bottle really that sturdy?"

Seeing that he didn't believe him, Old Li lifted his chin, signaling him to drop it and see.

He had never seen such a sturdy bottle. He picked up one of them, poured out the Medicinal Pill, looked around, found an empty corner, and made a gesture.

Then he turned to Old Li and said, "Li Teacher, I'm really going to drop it now. Don't ask me for money if it breaks."

Old Li smiled at him and nodded. Zhang Haoran no longer hesitated, picked up the bottle, and threw it towards the corner. However, he didn't dare to use too much force.

As a result, with a bang, the porcelain bottle hit the corner and bounced back. He reached out and caught it, seeing that it was indeed unharmed.

He truly didn't believe this. He unleashed all his Qi and Blood, concentrating it into the porcelain bottle in his hand. Then he threw it out with all his might.

Only a crack was heard, and the porcelain bottle shattered. But it wasn't completely pulverized; it just broke into several pieces.

One must know that Zhang Haoran's Qi and Blood now stood at a full 240 cal. The most crucial point was that his Qi and Blood control was already at 70% before.

Later, after being a sparring partner for so long, his control naturally increased a bit.

Even if his Qi and Blood control decreased slightly after his recent Breakthrough, it was still roughly 70%.

Theoretically, he could mobilize 70% of his entire body's Qi and Blood at once.

Even if the Qi and Blood he poured into the bottle just now wasn't a combat technique and lacked skill, it still amounted to about 120 cal of Qi and Blood. This was undoubtedly a powerful move!

Even a Second Rank Martial Artist would rarely be able to unleash such a move. In other words, if the opponent were a Second Rank Martial Artist, being hit by Zhang Haoran's thrown bottle would at least leave them crippled if not dead.

However, throwing that bottle also consumed 50% of his Qi and Blood. His face paled slightly from consuming so much Qi and Blood at once.

Zhang Haoran turned to look at Old Li.

Li Changsheng was also a bit stunned. Normally, a rookie who had just achieved a First Rank Breakthrough would be doing well if they could unleash 20 cal with such a throw. Forget 20 cal, even 80 cal wouldn't break this bottle.

Li Changsheng scrutinized Zhang Haoran and said, "Alright, young man. Your Qi and Blood control isn't low at all. You just unleashed half of your Qi and Blood in that one move. Plus, you didn't use any combat techniques, so your Qi and Blood control must be around 70%, right?"

He immediately began to act modest: "No, no, still a little short, still a little short."

Li Changsheng waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't be modest with me. If you have strength, show it. No one can do anything to you.

Alright, Old Man, I keep my word. These two bottles of Qi and Blood Pill are yours."

No way, Zhang Haoran didn't want to take advantage of Li Changsheng. He quickly placed the Medicinal Pill in his hand and the other bottle of Qi and Blood Pill on the table in front of Li Changsheng.

Then he looked at Li Changsheng curiously and asked, "Li Teacher, I just don't understand, why make a Second Rank Qi and Blood Pill bottle so sturdy? Is it for use as a hidden weapon?"

Li Changsheng saw that Zhang Haoran didn't accept the two bottles of Qi and Blood Pill and said nothing. He began to explain to him, "Martial Artists all unleash Qi and Blood during combat. If these Medicinal Pill bottles weren't sturdy, what would happen if they shattered when Qi and Blood erupted?"

Zhang Haoran thought about it and realized it made sense. A Martial Artist's Qi and Blood eruption still had a certain destructive power.

If it were just an ordinary porcelain bottle, it might indeed shatter directly.

Having understood the problem, Zhang Haoran continued to speak to Li Changsheng, "Li Teacher, actually, I just want to give someone a gift. I want to use a better bottle that looks more high-end. Do you have any bottles here that meet the requirements?"

Li Changsheng turned and walked into the room behind him, then came out a moment later.

He threw two exquisite-looking porcelain bottles to Zhang Haoran and said, "These are bottles for Fifth Rank Medicinal Pill. I'm giving them to you, kid."

Zhang Haoran quickly thanked him, picked up the bottles, and played with them for a while. He was very satisfied; with these bottles, no matter how they were placed on the stall, they looked classy.

Returning to his dormitory, he reflected on his lack of foresight today.

Then he took out his small box containing Medicinal Pill. He poured out ten Common Qi and Blood Pill and ten First Grade Qi and Blood Pill.

He put them into two separate bottles. He also affixed labels to the bottles.

He also picked up a few books from the table. He teleported to the Trading Square. Then he found an empty spot and began to set up his stall.

There were only two bottles of Medicinal Pill on the stall. The Common Qi and Blood Pill was priced at 100 value points per bottle.

The First Grade Qi and Blood Pill was priced at 300 value points per bottle, the same as what was sold in the mall.

However, in the mall, there was only one of each, and those were sold by Zhang Haoran.

After setting the prices, he sat behind the stall and began to read.

The energy in the Trading Square was dense. Zhang Haoran could feel his Qi and Blood recovering just by sitting there.

Once his Qi and Blood was fully recovered, he could also nourish it, especially since he had just experienced a Breakthrough. Nourishing it could also increase his Qi and Blood limit.

Zhang Haoran sat behind the stall and started reading. As soon as he opened the book, he entered a reading state.

Unbeknownst to him, another book was finished. He looked up at the stall and saw that both bottles of Qi and Blood Pill had actually been sold. He earned 400 value points; how delightful!

He estimated the time and realized he still had enough time to read another book.

So, Zhang Haoran didn't get up. He simply picked up another book from beside him and continued reading.

After finishing the book, he opened his System and checked his status. Not only had his Qi and Blood fully recovered, but the nourishing effect was also excellent. His Qi and Blood limit had increased by 2 cal.

Zhang Haoran was considering whether to put his fake body on the bed at night and sleep here himself.

After a while of contemplation, he stood up and looked at the surrounding stalls.

He still shook his head; it was still the same old saying. He cared about his reputation and simply couldn't bring himself to sleep there.

Zhang Haoran returned to his room. He put the books back on the table.

He lay down on the bed and immediately fell asleep.

The next day, after breakfast, he went to the Logistics Department again to collect his martial arts certificate. He also spent 30 academic credits to exchange for a bottle of Common Qi and Blood Pill.

As soon as he reached the bottom of the dormitory building, he met Fang Ping and Fu Changding. They were preparing to go to class. Seeing Zhang Haoran, they intended to ask him to go to class together.

He just happened to ask the two of them to help him ask for leave, saying that he was self-studying in the dormitory. In fact, he wasn't lying at all.

For Zhang Haoran, self-study was much faster than learning in class. However, Fang Ping and Fu Changding naturally didn't believe him.

Returning to the dormitory, he picked up two books. One of them was for his fake body to read. If anyone entered his dormitory and saw him sitting there Stupidly doing nothing, it wouldn't be appropriate.

The other book was for Zhang Haoran to read at the Trading Square.

He arrived at the Trading Square again. He found an empty space and set up his stall. He placed the bottle of Common Qi and Blood Pill on the stall and priced it at 200 value points.

Why so expensive? He just didn't want people to buy it. If he sold any more, he would barely have any Medicinal Pill left to sell.

Zhang Haoran came to the stall this time simply for the dense energy here. He could read while nourishing his Qi and Blood.

However, to his dismay, when he finished reading and looked at the stall, those Common Qi and Blood Pill had actually been sold.
