The Great Wu Cultivation Academy: 4

/*unedited*/

The academy entrance invitation for the families and clans of the great Wu city will start a month later. So for the remaining days in that month, Shin Jiao and Prince Mingsha Wu began planning their cooperation. Since Shin Jiao is not well versed with business as he didn't like doing those messy things. He concentrated on developing the trinkets he would sell.

He started training the father and daughter duo in the secret art of immortal artifact crafting. Since the two have been working for Aye Muyan for years now, he knows their loyalty towards his mother.

As time went by, a well-known special shop appears within the Great City of Wu. It is known as the immortal trinket shop, which caters to both mortals and cultivators alike as long as they are able to provide enough spirit stones.

Everyday lines of people coming from everywhere in the city would line up in the shop to buy those simple life-saving trinkets, this is true especially to those travelers who would brave the outside world.

In the shop's third floor in a large office there sat Prince Mingsha Wu in the middle chair. He really likes this chair as it is comfortable and moves according to his will. This was designed by his friend Shin Jiao for him. In front of him sat three middle-aged men and a beautiful woman. They are the representatives of the Roc's Eye Merchant group.

As the largest merchant group in the empire of Xi, the Roc's Eye Merchant group would always grab the opportunity to partner with uprising businesses to obtain more favorable goods and prices.

"Prince, what do you say about our condition?" A middle-aged man asked.

"Hmm… it's good, it's good… but I have to ask my partner first. We should both agree to this condition before it can be approved." Mingsha Wu said with a smile.

He really likes the attitude of the Roc's Eye people. But his gaze would occasionally tarry to the young woman with them.

She is well-known to be one of the top ten most beautiful cultivators in the Great Wu Cultivation Academy, Fan Ling, one of the heiresses of the Roc's Eye Merchant group. Since the merchant group is too big, the group has many heirs and heiresses and the chairman position would always transfer from five heirs and heiresses who would be chosen.

One of the possible candidates for the heiress position in the top five is Fan Ling. Because of her astute thinking and shrewdness in business, she has helped the Roc's Eye Merchant group in the Great City of Wu prosper. Her way of thinking it through business support, or buying almost failing businesses and selling them at a higher price, this way the cash flow of the Roc's Eye Merchant group would always roll.

Her eye in discerning future prospective products is very keen. This is also the reason why this early the Roc's Eye Merchant group in the great city of Wu made their move. She knows the value of the products this small shop is selling.


Fan Ling looks at the prince and showed him a beautiful and polite smile, making Mingsha Wu's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Though he is a very calm person, however, he too is also a young man. For far too long in the academy, he would just look at this beautiful fairy from afar and never have the guts to talk to her in fear of being rejected by her.

"Miss Ling, these products are truly amazing and the craftsmanship is truly exquisite. Only those with enough control with their Qi or have practice crafting for almost all their lives can create this kind of thing." One of the middle-aged men said as he scrutinized one of the earrings which look like a small swan.

"I'm guessing from the faint spiritual aura coming from this thing that these earrings when paired, would protect the wearer's mind from illusions and heart demons right?" the man added with a surprised look on his face.

"Yes, this is one of the new products that I specifically asked for the crafter to make. I know many cultivators are reaching the infant soul forming realm. If they have heart demons or their mind is not clear they would be unable to form an infant soul from their gold core. This would be a waste of a future powerhouse for our Great kingdom." Mingsha Wu said with a casual smile.

"Jackpot! I know that my eyes are right. Hihi… Sister Susu, do you think that you're the only lucky one to have found good crafters, I too found in my own domain. Although your city of Dis has grown to be a powerhouse, however, I too will help this small store and they would develop my Great City of Wu into something like that in the city of Dis." Fan Ling said while deep in her heart she excitedly imagined the future.

She has been in the city of Dis, a few weeks ago. And she was astonished at that place, especially the huge town a few kilometers away from the city which they called the town of Shi. That town is out of this world. Although she cannot go there even with her privileges as only her cousin Susu Ling can go there. But she wanted to try her best to do the same in her turf. She wanted the same luxury that she saw in the city of Dis to be in the Great City of Wu. And her gut is telling her that she has found the right place to start.

"Young prince, would it be possible for this lowly one to meet the crafter of these magical objects?" Fan Ling asked showing a bit of a shy expression.

This made Mingsha Wu almost lost his composure.

"Damn, she is really beautiful." He said deep in his mind.

Right now he is torn between gaining favor from the woman he admired for a long time or his friend. So, right now he could not decide and need to ask for Shin Jiao's opinion. After weighing things in his mind, he finally could not help it anymore.

"Please, can you wait for a bit while I ask my partner?" Mingsha Wu said as he turns around and took out something from his spatial tool.

What he is holding in his hand is an earpiece. As he felt awkward living the earpiece in his ear he would always hide it in his spatial tool. What he would carry in his side pocket is the phone which Shin Jiao gave him.

He is already aware of the phone as he saw this kind of product on one occasion and he knows that this thing came from the place which is now called the City of Dis. And one of the great elders of the Great City of Wu is currently trying to replicate the thing called phone, which he bought before in the once called town of Dis.

When Shin Jiao saw what he created as a means of communication, he wanted for them to make the item as one of their main products but Shin Jiao told him, that it is not time yet.

So the phone in his hand is actually an advanced version of the phone, as it looks like a palm-sized transparent crystal slab. After confirming his spirit Qi signature, the phone opens.

"Central, dial Shin's number." Mingsha Wu said.

When the people behind him heard this they were stunned.

"What is the prince talking about?"

"Who is he talking to?"

"What's that in his hand?"

The people began to ask themselves those questions as they look at Mingsha Wu with curiosity in their eyes.

Ring! Ring!

"Hey, what's up Prince?" Shin Jiao's voice from the other side picks up.

"Hey, I have a problem. The Roc's Eye Merchant group wanted to meet you." Mingsha Wu said casually.

"Hmm… You mean Bibao Ling is there?" Shin Jiao asked as only Bibao Ling is the one he knows who has the authority to make trades.

"Oh, so you know Mr. Bibao Ling? That's interesting, that fat guy would always have his nose in business everywhere. Hahaha… Anyway, I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about the one in charge of the Great City of Wu branch." Mingsha Wu said while smiling.

"Oh, I see. Well, I'm not against it. But what do they want to see me for?" Shin Jiao asked.

"They wanted to meet the crafter of the earrings." Mingsha Wu asked.

"Ah, those… I'm not the one who made it."

"What?" Mingsha Wu was stunned upon hearing that the mind-calming earring was not made by Shin Jiao.

It is known that the mind-calming earring is a very precious artifact if it would be exposed outside. Many people would fight for it, to think that the heaven-defying artifact was not made by his friend. Then, who could it possibly be?

"Yeah, it was made by my apprentice." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

He knows that this would cause Mingsha Wu to be astounded but he didn't care. In these few weeks, he taught the father and daughter duo. And he found that Ai Ji is very intelligent and was able to grasp the basics of rune formation. It's like her brain has ten times the capacity to think and memorize.

When Shin Jiao said that the earrings were made by his apprentice, everyone behind Mingsha Wu gasps in disbelief even Mingsha Wu as also stunned in disbelieve.

Who could it be that his friend found to have an ungodly talent in the Great City of Wu? Why his family didn't discover this talent?
