The next day, after getting adequate rest, Ye Mingqiu began using the attribute enhancement items to improve the basic attributes other than Constitution.

Now, his three-dimensional attributes had risen to a high level, with the lowest Mental Attribute at 109 and the highest Power at a terrifying 125, needing attribute enhancement items of over 130 points to see any improvement, and even that would be marginal.

The speed of resource consumption was increasing further, and the accumulation of Spiritual Points previously obtained seemed insufficient to sustain for long, requiring Tang Ruobing to continue getting recharged.

"Here, these are the earnings and equipment."

Ye Mingqiu directly traded some Spiritual Points and equipment over.

Tang Ruobing lowered her head and silently collected the supplies, quietly keeping records in her notebook, diligently noting every transaction. Although Ye Mingqiu would likely never charge her for them, she needed to understand the financial allocation herself.

"Your earnings seem good. Do you need any valuable items?" she suddenly asked. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"No,"

Ye Mingqiu replied.

At the moment, the Blood Spear in the Storage Space was absorbing the energy of the Blood Stone, and the Eye of Omaragon was corroding the Dragon Egg of the World-Ending Demon Dragon. Although the progress was relatively slow, the efficiency had improved much from before.

The Flame Dragon Inverse Scale Armor Dragon Soul, having devoured the Celestial-Burning Fire Seed of Hephaestus, was quietly digesting it. Hephaestus’s Fire Seed was stronger than any Divine Fire it had swallowed before, requiring a long time to fully digest.

The Riddle Gauze lived a rather leisurely life, having grown accustomed to the daily absorption of the Light of Holy Power. Though its Level hadn’t changed, its strength had significantly increased, even being able to confuse Hephaestus during their previous battle.

One must remember, that was a real Divinity!

The strength of the Riddle Gauze had reached a rather commendable level, though not reflected in its attributes.

"Alright."

Tang Ruobing nodded slowly, the sunlight of Holy Power shining on her profile, tinting her azure hair golden, ripples appeared in her calm eyes as if a stone had been thrown into a lake.

She asked softly, "Could we possibly visit the auction house today? The Floating World Commerce Association seems to have some good stock; we could go check it out together."

"Sure, when do we leave?"

"Right now, if you’d like."

"Alright."

....

The bright sunlight poured over the campus, a gentle breeze quietly blowing, lifting the golden-patterned azure Magic Robe of the girl, sweeping her hair up, beneath the morning sun and hair lay an upward curve.

Tang Ruobing held Ye Mingqiu’s hand as they left the school gate. Although the process was slightly different from what she imagined, she ultimately achieved her initial goal, having mentally prepared and planned for countless scenarios.

But it seemed she never needed them.

She even considered, if she was caught sneaking around, she would capture him and hide him in the cellar she bought in the suburbs, slowly transforming him with her "love."

Luckily, the worst-case scenario didn’t occur, and their relationship progressed smoothly.

"...."

Ye Mingqiu stared at his Spiritual Points balance, gradually falling silent. Had he known they were visiting the auction house, he wouldn’t have given Tang Ruobing so many Spiritual Points, even though he still had a decent amount left, it might not be enough for an auction.

Useful items probably wouldn’t be cheap, and he wouldn’t buy things he didn’t need, so...

He turned his gaze to Tang Ruobing.

Feeling his gaze, Tang Ruobing’s face blossomed into a bright smile, she said, "For this auction, all expenses are on Miss Tang."

"Alright, alright, I’m really grateful,"

Ye Mingqiu replied with a smile.

....

Soon after, the two arrived at the front entrance of the Floating World Commerce Association. They did not deliberately hide their presence, a faint yet immensely powerful aura naturally emanated from them, serving as the finest admission ticket without any need for special proof.

The security on both sides bowed in greeting, and the manager of the association even came to welcome them, his attitude respectful, as if he were greeting critically important guests.

"Welcome, are you here to attend the auction?" the manager asked with a smile.

"Yes,"

Tang Ruobing nodded, then directly displayed her Celestial Ladder Ranking Title, shining brightly enough to nearly blind the manager.

The Celestial Ladder Ranking was legendary to people in places like this; without sufficient knowledge, they might not even know of its existence as this was not a big locale.

The Spirit Realm’s Title wouldn’t be falsified, making it the perfect identity proof.

"Oh my, Miss Broken Star of No.2 in the Celestial Ladder Ranking, we’re truly honored to have you at our Floating World Commerce Association today! Please wait a moment, I’ll arrange the finest private room for you two right away!" The manager showed a smile of reverence and awe, his eyes revealing disbelief, but he still took them seriously.

As a sub-manager of the Floating World Commerce Association’s Chenghai City branch, while he knew of the Celestial Ladder Ranking, he had never seen a prodigy ranked so high up close.

After all, the Celestial Ladder Ranking encompasses the entire Tier One, and being the second in this ranking is a hugely prestigious honor, making it quite rare to see even in major cities, let alone a small place like this.
