Everyone present was shocked when they heard how much Anthony had offered: twenty treasures at the King Level! It was hard to estimate the value of such a bundle. The observers were also impressed with Anthony himself for apparently being able to pull out so many treasure at the drop of a hat. No wonder he was the young master of the second-biggest clan in the Devil Kingdom!
'Twenty? He really is a Mister Moneybags!' Zachary thought, smiling slyly to himself. Though he didn't care much for Anthony, he also wouldn't mind having those treasures. And despite the considerable rarity of the sixth-grade purple cultivation-aiding pill, it hadn't been hard for him to get his hands on it. Moreover, the amount of the treasure-hunting coins he could get after exchanging those twenty King Level treasures was quite remarkable.
Just as Zachary was about to make a fortune, a soft voice suddenly said, "I'll give twenty-five treasures!"
The startled crowd looked about until they found the one who had spoken. It was none other than Polly, a genius disciple of the Shura College.
However, she stood alone at that moment, for Pollard, who had just been beside her, was suddenly nowhere to be seen.
The next moment, the crowd around the platform burst into an uproar. Polly was very determined indeed to get that pill from Zachary. The fact that she was seriously trying to outbid Anthony of all people was even more incredible.
However, Anthony was not about to be trifled with. When he saw how eager this newcomer was to get the pill, his eyes darkened. He hastily shouted, "Thirty treasures!"
The disciples were even more clamorous when they saw him shout out that sum without so much as batting an eye. Any one of the thirty treasures of King Level would be expensive if it was sold outside. In fact, many of them also felt that such a sum wasn't worth the exchange of just one sixth-grade purple cultivation-aiding pill.
Of course, most of the disciples of Earth Level and Heaven Level couldn't feel the pain of the King Level disciples when they had to increase their strength. The higher one's grade, the tougher and more arduously difficult it was to advance. This was especially true at the premium stage of the King Level, where the disciples had to rely on pills to support their bre
made up her mind. "Of course I can help you," she said gravely. "But you absolutely cannot ask me to do anything illegal, or indecent."
Zachary raised his eyebrows and smiled. "No problem. I may be interested in you, but I would never try anything nasty."
Polly stared at him with a reproachful look, but her cheeks were a little red. For the sake of the sixth-grade purple pill in Zachary's hand, she decided not to blame him for teasing her.
"Well...then I accept," she said, reaching out her hand.
With everyone watching, Zachary put the purple pill on her palm.
"Thank you," Polly said mildly, and then left.
As soon as she was gone, the disciples gathered went crazy again. Even after hearing everything Zachary had said, none of them had actually believed he would just give the pill away until the moment he did just that.
Seeing all that had gone on, Anthony went livid with jealousy and frustration, and raged at Zachary. "You brat! How dare you break your word to me! You're asking for death!"
Zachary crossed his arms. "Since when have I broken my word?" he asked mildly.
"I gave the highest price for the pill, so you should have exchanged it with me!" Anthony thundered. "And now you just gave it away for free! How can you deny that you've broken your word?"
"You forgot what I said before. Who says that was the only pill I had?" Saying this, Zachary took out another box and opened it.
Inside, as if everyone hadn't been shocked enough for one day, was a second sixth-grade purple pill.
