On the first day Chu Xinghe arrived at Spirit Vein Mountain, he immediately purchased the Tianyi Spirit Mine from the Shi family in the name of the Grand Sky Sect.
When the Grand Sky Token was placed on the contract, almost all the higher-ups at the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce, except for Qin Xiangqian, looked as if they were sleepwalking.
The people from the Shi family left the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce with wild laughter.
Their final expressions seemed to say to the people of the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce, "You're all a bunch of idiots!"
Not to mention the Shi family, even within the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce, after the news spread, everyone thought Chu Xinghe was an idiot.
The Tianyi Spirit Mine had once been marked by the Shi family at the highest price in history, but after the waste stone incident, everyone realized that the Shi family had misjudged it, and it was just a waste mine.
Even so, the price of the Tianyi Spirit Mine was halved and halved again by the Shi family multiple times, yet the actual price remained astronomical.
Many large sects shuddered at the number when they heard it.
Although the Grand Sky Sect was vast and wealthy, such a large transaction wouldn't hurt them, but it was a waste mine!
Buying a waste mine like this, if not idiotic, what is it?
If yesterday the young people at the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce admired Chu Xinghe, today they just thought he was a fool.
A complete fool.
Such a significant transaction couldn't be kept secret, and the news spread throughout Spirit City in no time, with various sects reporting it to their own sects as quickly as possible.
Everyone who heard the news first reacted by wondering if Chu Xinghe had lost his mind.
Even if he had, did the brains of the other members of the Grand Sky Sect shrink as well?
For such a major purchase of a spirit mine, even if not handled by the Sect Master personally, it should at least be managed by a highly respected elder.
Who wouldn't conduct various comparisons, investigations, and negotiations when purchasing a spirit mine?
Buying a spirit mine is like fighting a tough battle.
But Chu Xinghe, on his first day, bought the Tianyi Spirit Mine without a second thought. Isn't that foolish?
If it were any other spirit mine, it might be understandable, but this is the Tianyi Spirit Mine!
Everyone knows it's a waste mine misjudged by the Shi family. Is Chu Xinghe deliberately trying to weaken the Grand Sky Sect by buying the Tianyi Spirit Mine?
Chu Xinghe had been widely praised before.
A peerless chosen one, the number one of the younger generation!
But after this transaction, everyone began to doubt if such a fool could be the legendary number one of the younger generation.
Or had he become too arrogant because of his previous achievements?
In Spirit City, in the eastern district, the Martial Emperor City's base was also located here.
At this moment, in the Martial Emperor City's base, the steward of the Martial Emperor City Chamber of Commerce was standing beside a man who looked like he had stepped out of a comic book.

"Now everyone outside is saying that Chu Xinghe is a fool. If such a person really becomes the future leader of the Grand Sky Sect, how could the sect not fall into ruin under his leadership?"
The steward reported to Zheng Yu with a smile.
But after hearing the steward's words, Zheng Yu remained silent for a long time before shaking his head.
"You're wrong... They say Chu Xinghe is a fool because they've never met him. He is the most outstanding young person I've ever seen, unfathomable. This swift purchase of the Tianyi Spirit Mine is not as simple as it seems!"
"Here's what we'll do. Isn't there a small mine next to the Tianyi Spirit Mine that shares the same vein? Find a way to acquire that small mine immediately!"
"What?"
The steward was dumbfounded!
Now everyone outside is saying Chu Xinghe is a fool for buying the waste Tianyi Spirit Mine.
But Zheng Yu actually wants to buy the small mine next to the Tianyi Spirit Mine, which is also considered a waste mine? What kind of operation is this?
"Should we report this to the City Lord?"
"No need!"
With a flick of his hand, a black Martial Emperor Token appeared in Zheng Yu's hand.
If Chu Xinghe could obtain the Grand Sky Token, it was only natural for Zheng Yu, with his status in Martial Emperor City, to have the Martial Emperor Token.
"Go do it immediately, or it will be too late!"
"Ah... yes... yes..." The steward went off with a bitter expression to carry out the task.
After the steward left, Zheng Yu gazed at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, his eyes filled with a sense of desolation.
"Outsiders call Senior Brother Xinghe a fool, but that's because they've never experienced his terrifying nature. This swift purchase of the Tianyi Spirit Mine means Senior Brother Xinghe must have discovered some important secret. It's just a pity the news came too late!"
"Otherwise, my Martial Emperor City would have taken a share of the Tianyi Spirit Mine. Now, we can only settle for this small mine, which is better than nothing."
Zheng Yu's eyes were filled with melancholy. Although he couldn't understand why Senior Brother Xinghe made such a strange move, Zheng Yu believed that Chu Xinghe was not someone who acted without reason, so he bought the small mine without hesitation!
The news of the Tianyi Spirit Mine being sold quickly reached the Shi family, and the Shi family head, Shi Qingshan, and a group of elders were so excited they almost wet themselves.
"Heaven is helping our Shi family!"
"We thought the Tianyi Spirit Mine would become a nightmare for our Shi family, but who would have thought the Grand Sky Sect would..."
"Don't celebrate too soon. Although the contract is signed, the Grand Sky Sect hasn't paid yet."
"No one in this world dares to break a contract with the Grand Sky Sect, and likewise, there's no need to worry about the Grand Sky Sect breaking a contract. What kind of existence is the Grand Sky Sect? How could they default?"
"Right, right! Today is a day of great joy, we must celebrate!"
"Celebrate, celebrate!"
But just as the elders were laughing heartily, a voice came from outside.
"You fools! The Tianyi Spirit Mine is a peerless spirit mine, and you sold it. You'll regret it!"
With this voice, a madman rushed in from outside.
Seeing this person, the Shi family's elders immediately showed expressions of annoyance.
"Who let him out! Someone, take him back!"
A disciple from the Shi family quickly came over to drag the madman away, and this madman was none other than Shi Qingshan's younger brother, Shi Qingteng. This guy had been obsessed with the Shi family's spirit-seeking techniques since childhood, following the family elders to explore spirit mines.
Apart from spirit mines, nothing else mattered to him. However, Shi Qingteng's spirit-seeking skills were indeed formidable, and many of the Shi family's spirit mines were discovered by him.
This time, the Tianyi Spirit Mine was also discovered by Shi Qingteng, but this time he misjudged it, and the Tianyi Spirit Mine became a waste mine. Because of the Tianyi Spirit Mine, the Shi family was previously besieged by major sects demanding an explanation, and the Shi family had to pay a hefty price to resolve the issue.
Now, after finally getting rid of the Tianyi Spirit Mine, Shi Qingteng was still making alarming statements. Did he realize the mental anguish his discovery of the Tianyi Spirit Mine had caused the family?
The Shi family wasn't going to let Shi Qingteng ruin their mood, and they threw a grand banquet, drinking and celebrating joyfully.
In the Grand Sky Sect, the Grand Sky Mirror in the Grand Sky Hall had not been activated.
This time, when Chu Xinghe went down the mountain, the Sect Master didn't send anyone to monitor him.
However, the heads of various halls were gathered in the Grand Sky Hall, all because of the spirit bird in the Sect Master's hand.
Everyone had seen the message brought by the spirit bird, and all the elders who had read it were silent.
"Sect Master, please allow me to go down the mountain and bring back this child Xinghe. I'll also handle the Shi family's matters," said the Great Elder.
The Great Elder's face was dark at this moment.
This time, Chu Xinghe had gone with the Grand Sky Token to handle the spirit mine matters, and the Great Elder had high hopes for him.
But who could have imagined that a day later, a spirit bird from beyond the sky would bring news that shocked everyone: Chu Xinghe had bought the waste Tianyi Spirit Mine on his first day!
The Great Elder almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon seeing it.
"Great Elder, please calm down. Our Grand Sky Sect hasn't fallen to the point where we can't afford this loss," said the Sect Master.
As soon as the Sect Master spoke, all the elders nodded silently.
Purchasing the Tianyi Spirit Mine was a huge expense, but to say it would cripple the Grand Sky Sect was a joke.
The Great Elder sighed and sat down.
"We all know this child Xinghe well. I don't think this matter is that simple. This child is not someone who acts recklessly, so we should wait and see."
The Sect Master's words made everyone nod again.
It made sense.
If it were any other disciple of the sect causing trouble outside, the elders wouldn't find it strange.
But to say that this child Xinghe was causing trouble? The elders absolutely wouldn't agree.
Xinghe was a good child, always giving his all for the sect.
Whenever there was a matter concerning the sect, when wasn't he at the forefront?
Not afraid of hardship, not afraid of fatigue, not afraid of punishment, not afraid of blame!
To say such a child was causing trouble? No one in the Grand Sky Sect would agree.
"Besides, even if this child really made a wrong choice, it would serve as a lesson, making him more stable in the future, which is a good thing."
"Indeed, even if this child made a mistake, it would be a good lesson for him!"
"I think that's reasonable!"
The elders discussed among themselves, and finally, the Sect Master decided to wait and see what other plans Xinghe had!
The Sect Master firmly believed that Xinghe would not act recklessly, and there must be a reason outsiders couldn't see for purchasing the Tianyi Spirit Mine!
In Spirit City, Chu Xinghe held the contract for purchasing the Tianyi Spirit Mine and gave it a big kiss!
Just ask if this time, he's steady!
Successfully acquiring the waste Tianyi Spirit Mine, just ask if the sect will suffer a loss this time!
This time, he's definitely going to be punished, who can stop him!
However, why hasn't the Compass of Misfortune reacted even though the contract is signed?
Could it be because the payment hasn't been made yet?
How can this be?
Quickly find Qin Xiangqian and urge him to handle all the procedures. We've bought the spirit mine, so let's pay up quickly. Our Grand Sky Sect can't afford to lose face! What if someone says we defaulted on the payment?
