“Sweet! I got the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade!”
A draft for a formidable Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade! Chen Xiaobei was overjoyed.
“Mr. Chen, forgive me for being straightforward…” Instead of walking away, Fei Xuan asked, “Why are you so willing to give up that piece of painting for this Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade? Could it be that you already have a Spiritual Item that could be paired with it?”
Chen Xiaobei blinked and said, “That’s a private matter. I cannot disclose it!”
“Please don’t misunderstand, Mr. Chen. I was not trying to pry into your personal matters!” Fei Xuan immediately explained. “I just want to remind you that the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade is a very rare Nine-Star Spiritual Item! You have to pair it with another Nine-Star Spiritual Item! Anything lower than that would just be a reckless waste!”
She believed that Chen Xiaobei could not possibly own a Nine-Star Spiritual Item. That was why she was kind enough to give him a heads up, so that the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade would not go to waste.
“Thank you, Ms Fei Xuan for reminding me! I knew that already!”
Chen Xiaobei smiled, knowing that she was all but sincerely concerned.
“Alright. That’s a relief!”
Fei Xuan then returned to the stage to begin the next auction.
…
As the auction continued, Chen Xiaobei’s heart and mind drifted elsewhere.
He was preoccupied on planning how he was going to use the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade.
Chen Xiaobei was not the kind of person who hoardes for things without a reason. Whatever he had acquired, he had to use it to its fullest and to the best of its ability!
The answer to the question that Fei Xuan presented earlier was that if he already had a compatible Spiritual Item, then the answer was yes, of course!
Chen Xiaobei owned a lot of Spiritual Items, all of which were stored inside his treasure chest. He even had Divine Items like the Thunder Pool Tesseract. Amidst his collection, there were two Spiritual Items that were compatible with the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade!
It was not the Thunder Pool Tesseract, of course. Although wind and lightning elements were compatible with each other, pairing a Spiritual Item to a Divine Item was like a horse pulling a car – it could only upgrade the Thunder Pool Tesseract by so much.
The other item that could be used with the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade was his Chaos Blood Sword.
This sword had undergone two powerful upgrades to become what it is today – a Chaos Blood Sword! With its powerful Special Ability, it was Chen Xiaobei’s trump card of choice to defeat his enemies!
The sword itself was a lethal weapon, and when complemented with the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade, it would become a weapon of doubled power!
For now, the Chaos Blood Sword had yet to reach a Nine-Star level. But at the very least, it was a Divine-Item tier weapon! Sooner or later, it would eventually become one!
Pairing it with the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade at such an infant stage was not a bad idea at all!
After careful consideration however, Chen Xiaobei crossed out this option.
The Chaos Blood Sword’s Special Ability operated on an ‘element of surprise’. That being said, it was supposed to kill his enemies with one a single slash! Most of the time, the Chaos Blood Sword would only be left in his treasure chest. Only at a crucial point in time would it be used to kill the enemy in one strike! If the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade was to pair with it, then the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade would also be left in treasure chest. That would be like casting pearls to swine! Not worth its salt at all!
With the Thunder Pool Tesseract and the Chaos Blood Sword eliminated, there was only one option left, the Dragon’s Edge!
This knife was made from the bones of a Black Demonic Dragon, and molded by the very hands of the Prime of Tongtian.
The only thing was, because time was scant, the Prime of Tongtian only managed to mold it into its form without any Spiritual Ability.
So, this was a half-finished product. Without the Spiritual Ability, it could not match any Spiritual Items.
Even so, from the combat power the Dragon’s Edge exerted, it was apparent that this was a natural killing machine!
Sharp! Keen! Honed! Its blade invincible!
What’s more, the Dragon’s Edge was a Divine Item itself. Even if there was a nuclear explosion, it would not have sustained any damage!
In the near future, the Dragon’s Edge, like the Chaos Blood Sword, would evolve into a Divine Item!
More important was that the Dragon’s Edge did not have to be saved for the right time to use it. When fighting against an enemy, Chen Xiaobie could draw it anytime without fuss and kill his enemies freely!
With the Reverse Blade Spiritual Jade’s Special Ability, the blade would be faster! Sharper! Even more invincible!
“It’s decided then!”
Chen Xiaobei reached a conclusion.
He later find the time to ask the Prime of Tongtian. If he had no objections, Chen Xiaobei would begin the first phase of advancement for Dragon’s Edge!
Ding
Chen Xiaobei received a message.
[Congratulations! You received a red envelope from Zhao Yun. One unit of ‘True Ride that Carries Victory’ painting has been deposited into your treasure chest!]
When he saw the message, Chen Xiaobei was over the moon and quickly clicked on the Little Apple Club chat group.
Chen Xiaobei: Bro Zhilong! I’ve received the red envelope! Master Wu Daozi! Master Gu Kai Zi! To all the masters… Thank you so much for your hard work! 
Wu Daozi: It’s nothing, God Chen! Zhao Yun has already thanked us earlier!
Gu Kaizhi: Yeah! Zhao Zhilong was so terrific he even sent us a thank you gift!
Zhao Yun: I was the one who lost the bet, so I should be the one to do the thanking!
Chen Xiaobei: Oh, right. Should I send you guys a merit point? … in case Shen Gongpao come looking for trouble!
Zhao Yun: There’s no need. I was the one who lost the bet. This is just a painting. It doesn’t affect humans so Shen Gongpao wouldn’t care.
Chen Xiaobei: That’s a relief. That bugger always has it in for me. It would be terrible if it did affect you guys.
Zhao Yun: Don’t you worry about these things. All that matters is that you are pleased with it!
Chen Xiaobei: I am! I’m very pleased indeed! It’s phenomenal! I got the real finished product! How could I not be pleased? 
Zhao Yun: What’s with the ‘hehe’? Is there something you’re not telling us?
Chen Xiaobei: I used that draft to exchange for a great treasure. I’m so happy
Zhao Yun: A piece of treasure from the earthly realm is enough to make you happy? Heh, the Duanwu festival is coming! It’s the day after tomorrow! Our Heavenly Realm treasures are waiting for you to come grab them! 
Chen Xiaobei: Whoa! It’s the day after tomorrow?! If you hadn’t told me, I would have already forgotten about it!
Zhao Yun: You surely deserve to have this Heavenly Realm Duanwu Festival party!
Chen Xiaobei: Haha! I will be definitely be there! And I will bring lots of delicious goodies!
Zhao Yun: I’ll see you there! 
Chen Xiaobei: See you!
As Chen Xiaobei put down his phone, it suddenly dawned on him that time had passed very quickly and he had already been in the Northern Wilderness Starfield for a few days.
Since he had decided earlier, he had to return to earth to spend Duanwu festival with his family. He hurried to get ready.
…
The auction came to an end. After Chen Xiaobei bid Dong Xiaowu bid the others goodbye, he returned to the 2nd Regiment base camp.
Seeing that it was still early, Chen Xiaobei gave Ning Yuchen a ring.
“Bro Ning, are you sleeping?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“Sleep? Who has time to sleep? Something terrible happened here!” Ning Yuchen replied.
