Chapter 521 New Store (5)
Chapter 521 New Store (5)
The three of them turned back to Lin Fan at the same time and asked, "Owner Lin, are these really the prices of your store?"
The prices that had been set by the system were anything but cheap, just like it had been on the Blue Star Planet.
For a Fragmented Soul Realm pet, the store charged one hundred spirit stones for training.
Spirit stones were the currency of cultivators, so only those in the Soul Realm would have plenty of them to use, however, that didn't mean that every cultivator had enough to use. Weaker cultivators that were in the Fragmented Soul Realm found it the hardest to earn spirit stones unless they had someone backing them.
For most Fragmented Soul Realm Experts, it would be good enough if they even earned ten spirit stones a year. Now you're telling people that to train their pet, they needed to pay what would take them ten years to earn?
However, it wasn't just the prices alone that were shocking, there was also something shocking underneath it.
Other than Fragmented Soul Realm, Embryo Soul Realm, and even Child Soul Realm pets, this store claimed that it could train Nascent Soul Realm and even True Soul Realm pets.
To train True Soul Realm pets, it wasn't something that any normal Master Monster Trainer could do. Those that could train True Soul Realm pets were well known across the realm and were people that could create waves with a single flip of their hand.
No one believed that there would be someone of this level that would be at this store. Or at least no one believed that the owner who was this young would be at this level.
There were many people who started looking at Lin Fan like he was a scam, but without knowing more about him, not a person dared to say anything. After all, he was someone that could inherit the Ghost Chef's store and had three of the Five Flowers of Harmony City visit him, there was no doubt that his backing wasn't small.
Lin Fan was already used to this kind of reaction from his experience back on the Blue Star Planet, but his store had never lacked business there, so he was confident in his store.
Lin Fan looked at the three of them and gave a nod before simply replying, "That's right."
In this situation, a simple answer was definitely the best choice because too much explanation normally looked suspicious. A simple answer would make it seem that you were more confident that you really were.
The girls still looked at Lin Fan with surprised looks, but then they decided to look around the store first. Perhaps there would be something here that would justify the confidence that Lin Fan demonstrated.
The store's layout was the same as the lower realm, so other than the counter where he sold the training spots, there were also displays in the store that demonstrated the other products. There was a display for pet food, there was a display for special pet food, and there was a display for training materials.
Then to the very right hand side of the store, there was a new section that hadn't been in the store before. This section was for the new items that Lin Fan had unlocked, the pet accessories.
Lin Fan hadn't been able to properly make these accessories back on the Blue Star Planet since he didn't have enough resources, but now he had plenty of resources to make proper accessories since he devoted two cultivation realm farms just to this one store.
The three girls all went to different displays since there were different things that caught their attention. Plus, they didn't really want to be together since things were still tense between them.
Qiao Yi Fei was attracted to the pet food display since as the granddaughter of the Ghost Chef, her pets had always received special pet food made by her grandfather. Then as the granddaughter of the Ghost Chef, she naturally had some understanding of how pet food was made, so she was curious what skills Lin Fan had.
When she came to the pet food section, she was once again shocked by the price because the cheapest bag of pet food that was being sold was a low grade bag that had a price of two hundred spirit stones. Even the pet food was more expensive than the training itself, just what kind of store was this?
But when she came closer for a sniff, she suddenly realized that this pet food wasn't as simple as it seemed.
As for Mao Tao, since she was a Gourmet Hunter herself, she was more interested in the rare pet foods since most of them were just ingredients.
When she came over to the display and saw the items being displayed, she couldn't help feeling that Lin Fan was a scam all over again.
The items there didn't look that special, but the effects that were being advertised just seemed too wild to believe.
There was a fruit that was on display that looked like several drawings of flames gathered together in the shape of a fruit with a green stem. Under this fruit, there was a sign that said, "Flame Flame Fruit, gives the pet who eats this fruit the ability to comprehend flame laws."
A fruit that could give a pet the ability to comprehend flame laws, what kind of wild claim was that?
Were laws that easily learned that just eating a single fruit would allow one to learn them?
Even if it was an item that was used for a pet, this was just a claim that was too ridiculous.
Then there was the cost of this item, it was exactly ten thousand spirit stones!
Ten thousand spirit stones were already enough to buy a Child Soul Realm Artifact, so instead of wasting it on training in this store or on this Flame Flame Fruit, it was better to buy something that would directly increase your own strength instead of the strength of your pet. No one who had that kind of money would spend it on a place like this, not to mention one that seemed like a scam.
But then when she was looking closely at the various high grade pet food that were on the shelves, she found that there were a few that contained energy that she couldn't recognize. When she looked at them closely, she found that not only did they contain one law, but rather two different laws.
This was something that she had never seen in an ingredient before.
As for Fu Ling, she had gone to the pet accessories section because she felt that they were quite cute, even if they were for pets.
One that caught her eyes was this collar that was placed on display.
According to the sign under the collar, it said that this collar had the ability to increase the agility of the pet that equipped it by 2. As for what kind of units that 2 used, it was unknown.
However, what was most important was that there was no indication of the level of this item.
All artifacts would be assigned a grade based on the level of laws that were contained within them, that way people could determine their value. However, these accessories didn't have any grading to them and as far as Fu Ling could tell, they didn't seem to contain any laws either.
But that was strange because she could sense some kind of strange energy that was inside of them.
The worst part was that this collar alone had a price tag of five thousand spirit stones. That would already be enough to buy several Embryo Soul Realm artifacts.
Still, in the end, when the three of them raised their separate issues to Lin Fan, they received the same answer.
"You are free to buy it if you want. Our store doesn't force any customers to buy our products."
Huh?
What was going on here?
Normally stores would treat customers with respect because the customers were the ones that they were trying to convince to buy their products. There wasn't a single store that would treat their customers like this…
But that was exactly how Lin Fan treated his customers.
There were a few people in the crowd who wanted to complain, but when Lin Fan looked in their direction, they immediately closed their mouths.
He had subdued them with pure force.
Fu Ling naturally couldn't take it since she was just being forced to come here by her grandfather, but it was different for Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao.
Mao Tao was actually trying to chase Lin Fan down and it wouldn't be good for her to not buy anything here, so she had to do something.
As for Qiao Yi Fei, this store had been her grandfather's and if it lost its fame just because of Lin Fan, that would be a slap to her grandfather's face. Naturally she wouldn't be able to accept this.
So after hesitating a bit, both Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao called out a pet.
Both of their pets were in the Embryo Soul Realm, which meant that training for them would cost a thousand spirit stones each. However, with the statuses that they had, this was nothing more than pocket change for them.
Qiao Yi Fei was the president of the Seekers Union and Mao Tao was a hunter, not to mention that they had both the Qiao Family and the Mao Family behind them. A thousand spirit stones was just a wave of the hand.
They sent the payment to Lin Fan's watch and the moment they did, there was a notification from the system in Lin Fan's mind.
