Chapter 227: An Underestimated Ruby

Qian Jin gazed at Gomez Jane from the corner of his eye as he found this flamboyant Ray Yue seemed to be very afraid! What had Gomez Jane done to her?

“Fiancée?” Ray Yue regained her calmness and lightly covered her lips with her hand. “Does that mean you are not married yet? Then you are not in his family. President Marc Gavin, we, the Ray Family have never shown any disrespect to your Torrent Battle Fort. But it would not end well for both of us if there must be a war between the two forces. I propose a duel between me and this young man. What do you say?”

“If I killed you, would there be another brother popping out for justice?” Qian Jin rubbed his nose as he smiled indifferently. Having fought countless fights in the endless world all these years, he was granted a special instinct to speculate on the strength of the opponents he had never met before.

Although sometimes the guess would not be completely accurate, he undoubtedly was not far off the mark. Qian Jin had this feeling that this woman was quite an adversary who might be equipped with some hidden special abilities. But there was a huge flaw, she hadn’t fought any deadly battles!

She did not have the all-out and life-risking attitude inside, which might not result in any problem when facing a weaker enemy. But it would kill her if she was fighting against an equally matched warrior!

Ray Yue was stunned because she didn’t expect Marc Gavin to say yes. She even had thought about a “best of three” proposal, for which she would arrange two weak warriors to be defeated or even killed by the Torrent Battle Fort. After leaving some reputation for the Warrior Union, she would be able to kill Qian Jin in the third round as an equal exchange. Economic compensation could be brought about in the future!

“Haha…” Ray Yue was annoyed by that provocation but she managed to force out a grin and along with her laughter; her breasts bounced up and down. “Oh, you don’t need to worry about that, young man. Well, but this mess could be absolutely settled if any of us were killed, right?”

“That let there be a duel.” Qian Jin shook his head in a helpless look. “Remember you asked for this.”

“Deal! The time is set for after the auction and you can choose the location and the witness!” Ray Gurish turned sharply away with a snakelike smile flashing through his face! Finally, he got away with his insidious wiles! His daughter was a real warrior and mage dual trainer although she was stuck on the Level 3 Spiritual Barrier for many year; she was seeking a breakthrough!

But as long as they got some potion for spiritual advancement, there was a great possibility that Ray Yue might even defeat Gomez Jane! After She gets Level 4 Spiritual Power, along with a well-functioned magic scroll, she had a good chance! A duel with that young warrior would cost her nothing! She even didn’t need to use magic! Only those who had really fought with a dual trainer would know what a kick-ass she was!

The yard once again got its peace and harmony back! Qian Jin stood there with an impatient smile. “Why are these family forces so fond of duels?”

“Qian Jin, don’t underestimate that woman.” Marc Gavin said in a light tone. “She has some talent, becoming a Level 1 Demon Capturer at the age of 24, which may mean nothing to you. But just so you know, it is likely that she is a warrior and mage dual trainer! ”

Warrior and mage dual trainer? Qian Jin was surprised by this identity! They could be counted as invincible among warriors who were on the same level! And it was not that difficult if they wanted to beat someone with higher level! There were full of records in the books at Qian Family’s library!

“Besides, her Warrior Power was just like the woman herself, full of evil spirits.” Marc Gavin again warned Qian Jin. “She had disappeared from Yulee State a few years ago. Rumor has it that she was paying a visit to Zene Skylar… ”

Qian Jin instantly frowned at the name! What a coincidence! In the duel with Cae Family last time, the Thunder Cat Bloodline Warrior he had killed was also a disciple of Zene Skylar.

Taking back his Soul Power and Skyreed, Fabreidis quietly commented. “I have faith in Qian Jin!”

Marc Gavin also nodded! Regardless what a trump card Ray Yue had, Qain Jin would never lose the battle! Only those who had really seen what he had, knew for sure that even though this kid was not a bloodline descendant, he was born a warrior!

“It’s about the time.” Fabreidis looked up at the sky. “We shall move to the auction after lunch.”

Everyone filed into the room and the spacious living room suddenly looked like a small with the bear body of Marc Gavin entering!

After they grabbed a meal, Fabreidis put on a suit out of excitement and left for the auction with Qian Jin, Rosella, and Marc Gavin while others stayed home in case some uninvited guests were to show up once again.

Their carriage, which was engraved with the Torrent Battle Fort symbol, did not need to stop in front of the auction house for inspection. So they went directly into the parking yard where not a single ordinary carriage was seen.

It was two hours before the auction started, but Qian Jin found that the hall had already been full of people! Some young girls wearing exposed dresses were holding a pile of brochures, and each person in the hall was handed one.

Opening a booklet, Qian Jin saw on the first page the profile of Level 1 Potion for spiritual advancement! There was not only a beautiful picture but also a brief introduction to the efficacy! What’s more, a written record from the four mages who had bought the potion before!

The Level 4 Spiritual Power was not a big deal in the mage world. But the potion that was made to break the Level 3 Spiritual Barrier and secure the Spiritual Power was another case!

Mages of Level 3 Spiritual Power were in desperate need of it, and more importantly, it was absolutely glad tidings for those warrior and mage dual trainers.

Although being a warrior and mage dual trainer was not the exclusive ability of bloodline warriors, it was still difficult for most ordinary warriors to enhance their Spiritual Power because there were too many distractions. So even if some ordinary warrior could develop themselves into a warrior and mage dual trainer by their extraordinary talent, they could not get themselves a high level of Spiritual Power.

And the Level 3 Spiritual Power served as a turning point and threshold in magic practice for warriors as well as for mages! The thick barrier was just too damn hard to break!

Qian Jin heavily sighed! This magic potion, which could be exceptionally useful for those who were gonna take a leap towards the higher level, just didn’t work for him who had zero Spiritual Power!

Turning over the page on Level 1 Potion for spiritual advancement, Qian Jin had seen pages on antiques, works of art, as well as a variety of gorgeous gems.

Suddenly a name called Qian Jin’s attention! What was exactly [A low-tier Ruby]?

From the picture, Qian Jin had seen an egg-sized ruby composed of red crystals! But in that red crystal mixed with a lot of black, green and yellow stains that were disorderly scattered in the gem! That’s why it was named of a lowe quality.

Color: bright but turbid;

Contains no fire magic elements;

For appreciation and looks only;

Bottom price: 150 gold coins.

Qian Jin almost drilled himself into the booklet! He secretly pissed on the Gem Appraisers after some careful observation because it was not a ruby at all!

It was the heart of an adult Blood Demon! Yes! This was not the magic core but the heart!

For most ordinary beasts, their hearts would automatically turn into magic cores after they advanced into Demon Beasts! It was their source of life! Different from most born Demon Beasts who had only a magic core, the Blood Demon had a core as well as a heart.

But it was quite strange that their heart grew in their stomachs! In other words, if someone killed the Blood Demon, he could only find its heart by splitting its stomach!

Qian Jin clearly remembered a detailed description of the high-level Demon Beasts from a Mystic Potion book written by Eulalia, in which she had scolded those warriors as morons!

[Those idiots only took the magic core away after so much efforts they had made! It was far inferior to the heart, which for them, was treated as an undigested ruby accidentally eaten by the Demon Beast!]

If Qian Jin had not read the book, he would ignore this seemingly flawed ruby! The stains were actually the beast’s blood vessels, which had shrunk into the heart the second it died.

In this case, the beast had not really died! Most of its essence was transferred into the heart, and if it was soaked in blood for some time, it could be resurrected into another infant Blood Demon who would grow up quickly and once again become an adult demon again!

Sometimes those who were strong enough to kill a Blood Demon would not go for this demanding job because the magic core carried less power than other higher beasts did.

“150 gold coins?” Qian Jin was very satisfied and excited! This thing could be applied as the key primer for too many mystic potions! 150 gold coins to buy a whole heart? That was a really good deal! The heart at least could break the price of a million gold coins if it was properly appraised!

“You want this ruby?” Fabreidis shook his head at Qian Jin’s choice: “The quality is not good enough even for 100. I’m afraid no one would bid for it. ”

Looking at the disdainful expression on Fabreidis, Qian Jin once again found that knowledge was far too important! A man without class might be looked down upon by society, but a man without knowledge would miss a lot of damn good things!
