C154 Wolf Totem
Ye Tian stared at her. After a long while, he finally nodded. He took out the jade in front of his chest and pressed it with his thumb.
At noon on the second day, a huge stage was suddenly set up at the intersection of the west gong alley and the East Drum Street.
On top of the stage, hung a banner with characters written in large characters: Murong Aristocratic Family Young Master Murong Qi had advanced to Primary Magic Mentor Observation Platform.
Attracted by this line of characters, the crowd gradually gathered around the stage.
In order to create enough momentum and let everyone know that Murong Qi had successfully levelled up and became a Primary Magic Mentor, Murong Aristocratic Family had spent quite a bit of effort and had built a stage a few meters square on the side of the Four Seas Restaurant, the biggest shop under the family's banner. He planned to let Murong Qi become a primary wind attribute Magic Mentor by noon when he had the most pedestrians and under everyone's watchful eyes, he would let all the old and young men and women in the capital witness Murong Qi's promotion from an advanced ice attribute Demon Spiritualist to a primary wind attribute Magic Mentor.
After all, the Magic Mentor was considered a rarity in the entire Tiangong Empire. The Magic Mentor and the God Fighters were the thresholds for Mages and Warriors. Only by crossing this threshold could one be considered to have entered the circle of upper class cultivators.
As long as one was a cultivator, there was no one who would not be proud to be a Magic Mentor or a Divine Warrior.
Based on Murong Aristocratic Family's calculations, this action not only increased the standing and reputation of Murong Aristocratic Family in the eyes of the common folk in the capital, it also greatly intimidated their competitors, such as Nangong Aristocratic Family and Huangfu Aristocratic Family.
With her deep royal background, even if her Murong Aristocratic Family was any larger, she would not dare to challenge the Ouyang Aristocratic Family. These two families were the same as the Murong Aristocratic Family, they had both started off as small vendors and had reached their current scale step by step. Furthermore, although these few large clans all had some connections within the imperial court, they were not high-ranking officials with huge backgrounds. Therefore, Murong Aristocratic Family wanted to take advantage of Murong Qi's opportunity to advance his cultivation, and step onto the two great families in one fell swoop.
As the sun rose into the sky, more and more people gathered around the stage. By a quarter past noon, the intersection of West Gangway Lane and East Drum Street was completely surrounded. All the carriages passing by turned their heads and took a detour.
At this time, seeing that the audience was almost there, one of the Murong Aristocratic Family employees walked to the center of the stage, gave a cupped fist salute to the spectators, and then said loudly: "My family's young master had obtained a level seven medicine at Imperial Auction the day before yesterday, and that was the Ye Clan Amocillin that was submitted by Dark Holy Temple. It is rumored that this medicine is also made from a secret Royal Bureau of Pharmaceutical, and it has the effect of being able to increase one's cultivation. In order for everyone to see the magical process of a Mage's advancement with their own eyes, my Young Master has specially arranged for today, to drink a Amocillin on this stage so that everyone can see for themselves what it means to have a Mage's advancement. At the same time, all the citizens of the capital are invited to witness the grand occasion of our Young Master's promotion to Magic Mentor. "
The shop assistant's words aroused the curiosity of everyone below the stage. To the common people, mages and warriors were high and mighty, rarely seen. As for the process of leveling up or advancing, he had heard of it vaguely, but had never seen it with his own eyes. To the commoners, being able to observe the mages' advancement at close range was much more attractive than watching the fireworks released by the Lantern Festival.
At the same time, not only did ordinary citizens enjoy watching the show, but some real mages and warriors were also standing not far away, closely watching the show. To them, this level of advancement was not like a mage entering Demon Spiritualist or a paladin becoming Holy Battlemaster. This was the same level as becoming a Magic Mentor, it was completely different from the previous two.
This level of advancement was attractive even to high-ranked wizards and warriors.
Finished speaking, the shop assistant took a few steps back. Next to him, a refined and handsome young man walked up. The young man was Murong Qi.
At this time, Murong Qi walked to the center of the stage, and also cupped his hands towards the crowd, "Those who are familiar with me know, my strength is a high level ice attribute Demon Spiritualist, my family spent 520,000 gold to help me advance my rank."
Speaking till here, Murong Qi held out his hand and held a glass test tube, and shook it in the air, then continued: "This medicine's name is Ye's Amocillin, it is one of the most valuable medicines from the Dark Holy Temple, but according to the Dark Holy Temple, it is also a new drug, and its effects have not been confirmed. Today, let me, along with everyone present, bear witness to the effects of this medicine and see if it can truly achieve the same effects that Dark Holy Temple promises to achieve in order to advance to the next stage. "
With that, Murong Qi opened the stopper of the glass test tube. He frowned slightly, raised his head, and drank the medicine in the glass tube with a sound of "gulping".
Everyone was silent. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly as they watched Murong Qi on the stage nervously.
Within a few breaths, Murong Qi did not feel anything out of the ordinary.
Murong Qi frowned. He stretched out his arms and made a gesture of opening up his arms. Then, he spun two rounds on the spot. However, he still didn't feel anything out of the ordinary.
The crowd began to stir, and sounds of ridicule and ridicule gradually came from the crowd.
Murong Qi stared at the audience standing behind the stage with Murong Aristocratic Family and asked in a deep voice: "There can't be a time limit for this pill to take effect, right? Isn't it supposed to work in an instant? "
The people from Murong Aristocratic Family were also nervous. Compared to the commoners who were watching the show, they were the ones in the shadows, and they were more concerned about whether Murong Qi could really advance in cultivation. If this medicine was fake, or the effect had a time limit, then the scene on the stage would become a huge joke in Murong Aristocratic Family.
Maybe it was because of Ye Tian's addition of his spiritual force, but Murong Qi was actually dozens of breaths later than Lin Qiyu, Anqi, and Sophie.
As the sounds of ridicule and ridicule from the crowd became louder and louder, a golden halo of light suddenly burst out from Murong Qi's body. The halo of light, along with Murong Qi's breath, shrunk and eventually shrunk until it tightly covered the surface of Murong Qi's body.
The moment Murong Qi saw the light, he knew that there was nothing wrong with the pill. Closing his eyes, Murong Qi opened his arms, raised his head towards the sky and made a gesture of hugging the sky.
At this moment, the halo around Murong Qi's body exploded with a bang. With the stage as the center, it seemed like a downpour of golden rain.
As the crowd cried out in alarm, they covered their faces with their hands as if they were afraid of these golden stars. When the small stars landed on their arms, everyone felt a slight burning sensation.
Without the sharp pain they imagined, everyone let go of their hands that were in front of their faces and looked back at Murong Qi, who was standing in the middle of the stage.
At this moment, Murong Qi's originally handsome face revealed a trace of an obscene smile. Looking at the audience, Murong Qi raised his arm and spread his fingers towards the sky.2
"Creak."
After a burst of cracking sounds, an ice sculpture slowly formed in Murong Qi's palm. The part of the ice sculpture that was closest to Murong Qi's palm first appeared, followed by the part in the middle. A quarter of an hour later, the tail of the ice sculpture was completely revealed to everyone.
The crowd below the stage all opened their mouths wide, looking up at the huge ice sculpture above their heads. It was a complicated picture. In the middle of the picture, there was clearly the image of a wolf head. The picture was either square or round. It was carved and reflected the image of the wolf head in the middle.
If it was anyone who had a little understanding of the Four Great Clans, they would know at this moment that this pattern was indeed the Murong Aristocratic Family's totem. A hundred years ago, it was known as the wolf totem.
At this time, the people standing behind the stage had looks of worship on their faces as they looked at the wolf totem above their heads. Some of the old men's eyes were already filled with tears, their legs trembling, as they kneeled down towards the totem above their heads.
In the hearts of everyone in Murong Aristocratic Family, Murong Qi had already become a legend. Furthermore, most importantly, the wolf totem's ice sculpture was emitting a strong cold aura. Any mage or warrior could feel how tyrannical that intense cold aura was, unless they had the strength of the Magic Mentor s.
The obvious fact was that Murong Qi had levelled up, he had already become a primary ice attribute Magic Mentor.
This meant that the strength of the Murong Aristocratic Family had increased by leaps and bounds. Besides Ouyang Ruochen, in the industry competition of the capital, there would be no other family or power that could compete with the Murong Aristocratic Family.
Facing the gigantic wolf totem in the sky, everyone in the Murong Aristocratic Family began to mutter the teachings of their clan's ancestors as they all kneeled down and kowtowed.
The news of Murong Qi's breakthrough had spread throughout the capital overnight.
Previously, Bao Debinn had arranged for people to continuously inquire about the information regarding Murong Aristocratic Family. If the Amocillin did not achieve the promised medicinal effect, he could have made his preparations earlier.
Now that the news came, Bao Debinn was overjoyed, but his heart was actually filled with shock.
If the Amocillin really did what he had promised, and if it could advance in an instant, and was suitable for both mages and warriors, then the price of this medicine would skyrocket in the future.
Thinking about this, Bao Debinn was a bit regretful. He regretted showing some distrust towards Yeh Rong. It was just that he didn't know whether the hall master of the other party's Dark Holy Temple had taken it to heart or not.
Starting from the second day, Murong Qi's successful promotion was also posted on the notice board in front of the Imperial Auction gate. The extravagant words played a part in rendering the success of the Amocillin's auction, and actually had half of the credit for the Imperial Auction.
