Cosmic Trading System

Then, Zhu Haoran had dinner with Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran.

Although Zhu Haoran was quite touched by Lin's way of drinking the Supreme Azure, he couldn't deny that the wine had a great taste.

However, after learning that the wine was a gift from Zhu Haoran to Lin Yun, Zhang Haoran felt rather uncomfortable drinking it and became quite reserved.

"Dear Martial Uncle, thank you for the Supreme Azure you gave me and my master. I will definitely deliver the one for my master. Additionally, I have left two bottles of wine where you last brought me the wine. Please remember to take them," said Lin Yun as he stood up after dinner, looking at Zhu Haoran with a smile.

This restaurant's security was under the supervision of the organizers of the Martial Arts Convention, and it was quite secure. However, with the help of the Cosmic Trading System, Lin Yun found it easy to quietly leave two bottles of wine in Zhu Haoran's room.

While Supreme Azure had significant benefits for those practicing Mingjin, its effectiveness for practitioners of Dark Strength was not as pronounced, especially as Zhu Haoran had reached the peak of Dark Strength.

Hence, the effect of Supreme Azure on Zhu Haoran was minimal.

Therefore, the wines that Lin Yun had left in Zhu Haoran's room were of an even higher grade than the Supreme Azure.

According to the prices listed in the Cosmic Trading System,

One bottle of Supreme Azure would set him back by about five Spirit Energy Points, whereas one bottle of that wine would cost around fifty Spirit Energy Points, ten times the cost in the Cosmic Trading System.

Lin Yun estimated that the cost of this wine on Earth might be even higher, as its rarity made it even more valuable. A wine of the level of Supreme Azure was already hard to come by on Earth, let alone one that was even better.

However, you get what you pay for. The effects of such a liquor on practitioners at the peak of Dark Strength was enormous.

The two bottles of wine, in total, were equivalent to just one Spirit Crystal.

As of now, Lin Yun only had eight Spirit Energy absorption and refining devices, and he could harvest over seven thousand Spirit Crystals daily.

Therefore, one Spirit Crystal meant nothing to Lin Yun.

Given that his Martial Uncle had passed his test of character, he didn't mind sharing some resources with him.

He chose not to give more due to the same reason that he planned to give only one bottle of the remaining Supreme Azure to Zhang Haoran. They had only just met, and it wouldn't be appropriate to give too much at once.

After all, if consumed correctly, those two bottles should last Zhu Haoran for two months.

In the future, he could always provide Zhu more resources for cultivation.

In two months, he believed his strength would become significantly stronger.

By then, he wouldn't have anything to worry about.

Lin Yun left two bottles of alcohol in his room?

Zhu Haoran was stunned, but before he could react, Lin Yun had bid farewell and left with Zhang Haoran.

"Brother Lin, the Supreme Azure is very precious. Even if there's only half left, it's worth tens of millions. I really can't accept it..." Back in the room, Zhang Haoran hastily tried refusing when he heard Lin Yun planned to leave the remaining Supreme Azure for him.

He felt that, being able to drink such wine with Lin Yun in public had pushed him to his limits. Accepting the leftover wine would be beyond what he was comfortable with.

"As I mentioned earlier, this wine means nothing to me. Perhaps, Brother Haoran, you will soon understand what I mean. Today's neither the time nor the place, but when we meet again in the future, I can give you more Supreme Azure..." Lin Yun said with a faint smile.

"I may not be coming back tonight, so the leftover wine will remain here. Brother Haoran, if you don't want it, feel free to throw it away..." Lin Yun continued after a brief pause.

With that said, Lin Yun turned to leave.

A half bottle of leftover wine, he didn't have the heart to reject it.

As he had said before, if not for his tight schedule, he would have given Zhang Haoran more Supreme Azure.

At the very least, he would have given him a full bottle, or perhaps two or three.

However, since he had spent the past few days with Zhang Haoran, it didn't feel right to suddenly take out so much wine.

Martial arts grandmasters had a strong sense of danger.

Although Lin Yun was not a grandmaster, his mental strength had reached level three, so he had equally accurate premonitions.

He felt a strong premonition that something big was going to happen today, which could possibly reveal his identity. When that happened, he would naturally not be able to accompany Zhang Haoran back.

Seeing Lin Yun leave, Zhang Haoran immediately carefully stored the wine and followed Lin Yun out.

There were many stands on the way up the mountain. The fact that it was the last day of the Martial Arts Convention made the atmosphere even more lively.

"Look, that's Wei Donglai from the Baji Sect. He's a grandmaster and elder at the Martial Arts Convention. I heard he has reached the late stage of Huajin..."

"Wow... Huajin late stage... that's a powerful figure among grandmasters... Even most grandmasters have to show their respect to him... I would be content if I could reach the early stage of Huajin in this lifetime..."

"Don't be deluded, each Huajin grandmaster is a dragon among men, not something an ordinary person can attain. If you can reach the peak of Dark Strength in this lifetime, you should consider yourself lucky..."

"What's the big deal about reaching the late stage of Huajin? Look over there, that's Zhang Qiankun, the Vice League Leader of the Martial Arts Convention. Rumor has it that he has reached the peak stage of Huajin..."

"That one over there is Elder Wou from the Tai Chi Sect... also an elder in the Martial Arts Alliance... at the late stage of Huajin..."

"Today is the final of the New Talent Competition, several super warriors have come..."

"Even though it's the New Talent Competition, it will affect the future of martial arts' trend. And some of the top talents are their disciples, hence they have to come and watch..."

"I heard that the prize for this year's champion is a treasured sword that can cut iron as if it were mud. It even possesses a certain spirituality and has magical effects. With it, defeating opponents of higher levels would be a piece of cake. Even those martial arts grandmasters desire to win it..."

"Possessing spirituality? That sounds too fantastical! However, if there is such a treasured sword, it should be possible to defeat higher level opponents. We live in a society ruled by law, ordinary people cannot carry guns, and moreover, cold weapons are more useful to martial arts masters than firearms.

Having such a weapon is indeed enviable, it is normal that even grandmasters aspire to have it..."

When Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran arrived, many spectators were engaged in eager discussions, their excitement palpable.

The stage for the final had been set up, and compared to the stages from the past two days, it was more formal and grand.

The number of people at the jury table was not as small as before, but grander than ever, as if the previous days were only rehearsals leading up to this national star-studded event.

However, seeing the people on the jury, Lin Yun also had to suck in a breath.

There were even martial artists who had reached the peak stage of Huajin.

Reportedly, there was more than one such figure, though only one was present at the jury, as this was only the New Talent Competition, one of the events at the Martial Arts Convention, not a core event.

There were multiple martial artists who were in the late stages of Huajin.

Mid and early-stage Huajin practitioners numbered in dozens.

Indeed, participating in the New Talent Competition was the right decision, and so was buying a robot with the strength of the Innate Realm...

Otherwise, it would not necessarily be easy for him to obtain the champion's prize from these powerful figures.
