Chapter 1330: Opening the Second Layer of the Treasure Vault
"Senior sister, why haven't I found many good things?"
Xie Purou lowered her voice and whispered to You Ruo.
The treasures in the Prince's treasury are basically the same as those in the Kunlun Holy Land's treasury. Moreover, as direct disciples, they can obtain treasures that are of a higher grade than those in the Prince's treasury.
While everyone around them was staring at the treasures with gleaming eyes, the two women appeared much calmer.
The main reason is that these treasures don't make them overjoyed.
You Ruo told her to lower her voice: "Junior sister, let's take another look. Maybe there'll be something suitable."
The two women were a little embarrassed. The prince had been very kind to them and had even allowed them to choose any three treasures from the vault.
It's not that they're being disrespectful, but rather that these things are really not that great, not enough to really appeal to them.
"Yes, I understand. We should still give him the respect he deserves!" Xie Purou nodded, indicating that she was still very sensible and would not embarrass her master.
..................
While everyone was making their choices, Wujiang stepped in front of a sword.
The sword is entirely black, with blood-red patterns on the blade. The hilt resembles an eagle's wing, making its overall design quite impressive.
"The Blood Eagle Sword, a peak weapon of the God-Emperor!"
Wujiang's eyes lit up; this sword was just right for him.
Without a second thought, he chose this sword.
On the other side, Xiang Guanhong also stopped in front of a long spear.
This spear is a weapon of the peak level of the God Emperor, with great power, which perfectly matches his various fighting styles.
Choosing this spear is indeed a very good choice!
Xiang Guanhong never hesitates; once he makes a choice, he will not waver.
He immediately chose the spear.
Shi Kai, one of the top ten, chose a battle axe with a rather ferocious design!
He's strong enough in defense, but slightly lacking in offense. This battle axe will make up for that deficiency.
Many people also chose the immortal techniques or elixirs that suited them.
Others chose extremely rare refining materials, intending to melt these materials into their own weapons to give them greater potential!
One by one, everyone found what they wanted.
As fewer and fewer people remained, You Ruo and Xie Purou became even more conspicuous.
As the champion and runner-up, they were already the focus of attention, and they could directly choose three treasures as prizes. Everyone wanted to know what treasures they would choose.
Even now, before they've even made their selections, they're becoming increasingly eye-catching in the crowd.
"Why haven't they started choosing yet? Are they having trouble making decisions?"
"That's normal. There are so many treasures here, you can't possibly choose them all. Who wouldn't be confused by it?"
"But they had three chances to choose, which is much better than us. Surely they didn't fail to pick out even one item?"
"Girls are bound to be a little indecisive, that's normal."
The crowd murmured among themselves, watching the two women walk back and forth with curiosity.
But as they looked around, everyone started to sense that something was off, because the two of them didn't seem to be excitedly picking things out; they seemed to be aimlessly wandering around the market.
You Ruo and Xie Purou didn't seem as enthusiastic as the others.
They pouted and strolled around slowly, seemingly uninterested in anything.
Seeing their state, Wujiang and the others couldn't help but look at each other, not understanding what they meant.
"Why do they still look dissatisfied?" Wujiang was somewhat puzzled.
This place is full of wonderful things.
Those at the God-King level can be ignored, which is normal.
But aren't they excited about all those treasures at the peak of the God Emperor level?
"Is it that these treasures don't suit their tastes?"
"Really? This place is full of good stuff, how could they possibly complain?"
"They even look down on treasures from the peak of the God-Emperor realm? Their standards are way too high!"
The crowd couldn't help but start whispering among themselves, wishing they could take as many items as possible, since each one was very attractive to them.
These two, however, still didn't seem quite satisfied after looking at so many.
What exactly would meet their requirements?
Everyone was a little incredulous. Were they really too picky, or did they simply have trouble making choices?
Can't figure it out.
The prince noticed that the two women didn't seem very satisfied with the contents of the treasure vault, so he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have any treasures you'd like to choose from?"
Xie Purou scratched her head, just about to speak, when You Ruo spoke first: "Your Highness, you have so many things here, we don't know what to choose."
The prince wasn't stupid; he could tell at a glance that these words were just empty pleasantries.
You Ruo probably took the initiative because she was worried that Xie Purou would speak the truth out of the blue.
"You all look down on the peak-level Divine Emperor treasures here? What about the elixirs and miraculous medicines? And all sorts of rare and precious materials and powerful cultivation techniques?"
Even the prince himself found it somewhat unbelievable.
His own treasure trove was filled with everything imaginable, containing all sorts of treasures.
He believed that anyone whose cultivation level was below the Saint Emperor stage would be tempted upon arriving at this treasure vault.
These two girls, however, were completely unmoved?
This made him somewhat resentful. Surely his vast treasure trove couldn't possibly be uninterested in even two girls?
You Ruo and Xie Purou exchanged a glance, realizing that since things had come to this point, they didn't need to say anything more polite.
Xie Purou honestly replied, "Your Highness, there's really nothing we're particularly interested in right now."
As for treasures, whether for attack or defense, their master had already prepared them.
So, they weren't actually that interested.
They had even less interest in elixirs, rare herbs, and precious medicinal materials.
No matter how powerful or rich the royal palace's treasury is, could it possibly be as rich as the treasury of the Kunlun Holy Land?
Not to mention the treasure trove of the Kunlun Holy Land, even their own private treasury contains quite a few good things.
Wujiang, Xiang Guanhong, Shi Kai, and Mu Wanling were all surprised by this.
Upon hearing this, the prince's expression stiffened slightly, and he looked somewhat embarrassed.
His main purpose in granting these two girls special privileges was not simply out of admiration for them.
It was actually a gesture of goodwill towards Ye Chen!
If these two girls are not satisfied with his treasure trove, then wouldn't his efforts to curry favor with Ye Chen become a joke?
After thinking for a moment, the prince gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, immediately saying, "In that case, I have no choice but to open the second level of the treasure vault!"
