In Wang Ruoxie's palm, there were over a dozen pills, completely blood-red.

Threads of blood energy swirled around the pills, and it seemed that within the pills, blood was faintly flowing.

"Is this... the Demon Beast Blood Pill?"

Ling Xiang asked with some uncertainty. Although the blood of ordinary beasts could also be refined into Blood Pills, they would never appear so smooth, nor would they emit such blood energy.

Moreover, she could sense that the blood energy emitted by these Blood Pills was much denser than any she had seen before.

"Indeed, these are Blood Pills refined from the heart blood of Tier One demon beasts, containing qi and blood far exceeding ordinary Blood Pills."

Wang Ruoxie nodded with a faint smile and said.

At his current level of cultivation, Blood Pills from Tier One demon beasts no longer had much effect, so he decided to consign all Blood Pills refined from their heart blood to Jisheng Hall for sale.

"Great, with these Divine Grade potions and Blood Pills, Jisheng Hall's reputation will surely ascend to a new level."

Ling Xiang took the Blood Pills, then said excitedly.

"This is just the beginning. I said before, choosing to cooperate with me, you will never regret it. I will make Jisheng Hall the number one Medicine Hall in Wuyi County, even in the entire Southern Prefecture."

Wang Ruoxie said with a faint smile.

Potions and Blood Pills were insignificant to him, and compared to those Medicine Halls where Pill Masters are in charge, Jisheng Hall, which currently only sells potions, still had a long way to go.

As for Xu Hao, although he was a First Grade Pill Master, he had likely just been promoted, and his success rate in refining First Grade Pills was presumably very low. Otherwise, he would not desire his potion formula.

"I believe you."

Hearing Wang Ruoxie's words, Ling Xiang nodded solemnly.

There was a peculiar look in her eyes as she gazed at Wang Ruoxie. She was increasingly curious about the Seventh Young Master of the Marquis's Mansion, who was rumored to be a wastrel.

Wang Ruoxie not only improved his cultivation from the First Layer of the Body Tempering Realm to the Eighth Layer within just three months, but he also possessed the terrifying power to easily defeat someone at the Ninth Layer.

Additionally, he could formulate Divine Grade potions and even refine Blood Pills from the heart blood of demon beasts.

She even suspected that he must have more secrets, and she looked forward to how many more surprises awaited her in the future.

After a brief conversation with Ling Xiang, Wang Ruoxie stepped out of Jisheng Hall.

Then, he continued walking down the street.

A moment later, Wang Ruoxie arrived at a rather luxurious shop. Above the shop's entrance, there was a gilded signboard with three flamboyant characters—Star Universe Pavilion.

"The person who wrote these characters can indeed be considered a calligraphy expert, but unfortunately, there is a lack of charm in them."

Wang Ruoxie raised his head to look at the signboard, then murmured softly.

"Ha, who is this madman, daring to speak such audacious words? Do you know who wrote these characters?"

At this moment, a cold laugh came from the side. Wang Ruoxie turned to see a young man in a scholar's long robe.

"Could it be you wrote them?"

Wang Ruoxie smiled faintly and replied.

"Ridiculous, doesn't everyone know these three characters were written by the calligraphy master Huang Yuze?"

The young man looked at him with some disdain and spoke again: "You must just be a spoiled rich kid. How could you understand the subtleties of calligraphy? You probably haven't even heard of Master Huang's name, have you?"

"Hmm, indeed I haven't."

Wang Ruoxie nodded, saying, "However, I consider myself to know a bit about calligraphy. Whether the person who wrote these characters is a calligraphy master I do not know, but I do know these characters have form without spirit, lacking the inherent charm of the characters."

"Absurd, words are just words, what inherent charm could they have?"

The young man shouted coldly, disdainfully, "You ignorant fellow, since you claim to understand calligraphy, would you dare to compete with me? Though my calligraphy is far inferior to Master Huang's, it's certainly enough to teach you a thing or two."

"Not interested."

Wang Ruoxie responded indifferently and then ignored the young man, heading directly into Star Universe Pavilion.

The Star Universe Pavilion was the largest shop in Wuyi County City, naturally attracting many people for trade. The hall was bustling with at least several thousand people.

"Arrogant boy, stop right there..."

The young man wasn't condoning and ended up following him inside.

"Isn't that Su the Great Scholar Su Weicai? Who's he chasing after?"

"I hear Su the Great Scholar is excellent at calligraphy, very proud, and looks down on others. He's intent on becoming a disciple of the calligraphy master Huang Yuze."

Everyone around whispered as they witnessed the scene.

"Do you dare to compete with me, or admit your lack of vision and apologize to Master Huang in front of everyone if you refuse?"

At this moment, Su Weicai quickly approached Wang Ruoxie, blocking his path.

"Fine, if you want to compete, I'll agree, but if you lose, then what?"

Wang Ruoxie furrowed his brow. He hadn't expected his words to provoke such a troublemaker.

"Ridiculous, how could I lose? If I do, I'll kneel and kowtow, taking you as my teacher."

Su Weicai sneered.

"There's no need for that. If you lose, you should just not appear before me ever again."

Wang Ruoxie shook his head. He quite detested such self-important and obliviously arrogant people.

"Hmph."

Su Weicai snorted coldly, but said no more, as he simply did not believe he would lose.

Subsequently, Su Weicai requested the attendants of Star Universe Pavilion to bring two tables along with paper, ink, brush, and inkstone.

A good many people gathered around, all eyes filled with interest, eager to watch the show.

Most people recognized Su Weicai. Despite his extremely aloof demeanor, he did have some accomplishment in calligraphy, writing with remarkable skill, and had the potential to become a calligraphy master one day.

As for Wang Ruoxie, he was relatively unknown to the crowd. He appeared to be around sixteen years old, his clear and youthful face still carrying some boyish innocence, yet his demeanor was steady and mature, exuding a slightly noble aura that made him difficult to fathom.

They were somewhat curious to see whether this young man could indeed surpass Su Weicai in calligraphy.

At this moment, Su Weicai's brush moved vigorously with fluidity, each stroke penetrating the paper, the ink not dispersing. Soon, a flamboyant 'Tiger' character appeared on the paper.

"Good, the penmanship is full, the form robust, this 'Tiger' character leaps off the paper, excellent, excellent..."

At this moment, a voice of praise erupted from the crowd. Everyone turned to see a middle-aged man in a blue long robe.

"It's Master Huang, I didn't expect Master Huang would come too."

"To witness Master Huang in person, what a rare blessing indeed."

Exclamations of surprise emerged one after another, and all eyes turned respectfully to the man. This was the calligraphy master Huang Yuze.

"Your student Su Weicai, pays his respects to Master Huang."

Su Weicai respectfully greeted Huang Yuze, his face flushed with excitement.

"You're quite good, and your calligraphy is quite good too."

Huang Yuze smiled and nodded, leaving Su Weicai brimming with excitement, then glanced smugly at Wang Ruoxie, believing the outcome was secured with even Master Huang's acknowledgment of his skills.

However, Wang Ruoxie merely smiled serenely, picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, and swiftly brought it down.

Suddenly, a refreshing breeze swept through the hall.

With every stroke Wang Ruoxie made, an invisible aura expanded in the space, growing stronger and stronger.

With the completion of his final stroke, the brush in his hand unexpectedly emitted a cracking sound, shattering into a pile of powder.

"Roar!"

A tiger's roar suddenly awakened the crowd, who were left thoroughly astonished.

"Is this... could it be the legendary words manifesting spirit, how can it be?"

Huang Yuze was even more taken aback, exclaiming in shock, with a face full of disbelief.
