Soon, many cultivators purchased the pills. As they opened the bottles, a unique fragrance of the pills spread throughout the shop.
“Wow, this small Primordial Spirit Pill is of excellent quality, definitely top-grade.”
“This Hemostatic Pill too, its fragrance is rich and it’s perfectly round.”
“Indeed, these are premium products. I bought two Hemostatic Pills and two Speed Enhancement Pills, all top-grade.”
“I need to buy more; missing this chance means missing this price.”
The cultivators excitedly discussed among themselves.
Most of the cultivators present were at the Spirit Master and Spirit General levels, not particularly wealthy. Thus, being able to buy top-grade pills at prices lower than the market rate was a great opportunity they couldn’t miss.
Watching the scene of eager buyers in the shop, Leo, Alondra, Violet, and Holden couldn’t help but smile broadly.
“Leo, Alondra, the business is as booming as we expected,” Violet said cheerfully.
“This is just the beginning. We will only grow stronger from here,” Alondra replied with a smile.
Leo’s smile gradually faded as his gaze shifted to two people standing to the left front.
Noticing the change in Leo’s expression, Alondra couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong, Sect Leader?”
“It seems they are from the Everlasting Trade Association.”
Hearing this, Alondra and the others followed Leo’s gaze.
The two individuals were a middle-aged man in a light gold robe and an elderly man in a green robe.
The middle-aged man had a rugged face and eyes that scanned the hall like a hawk.
As for the elderly man in green, Leo had met him once before.
When Leo first came to Clearwind Town, he had entered the Everlasting Trade Association with Arthur and had seen him there.
He was Charles Woods, the manager of the Clearwind Town branch of the Everlasting Trade Association.
The middle-aged man beside Charles should be Josiah Sears, the branch president of the Everlasting Trade Association in Clearwind Town.
The Everlasting Trade Association was a prominent business group in the Martial Dynasty, dealing in a wide range of products including pills, spirit herbs, various artifacts, spiritual weapons, ores, and other items.
As the branch president of the Everlasting Trade Association in Clearwind Town, Josiah Sears had monthly sales targets. If he failed to meet them, he risked being removed from his position.
Therefore, with the opening of Lord’s Manor’s shop, he naturally came to assess the situation.
“President, it seems Lord’s Manor’s shop will primarily sell pills in the future, which might conflict with our business,” Charles whispered to Josiah.
“The quality of their pills is excellent and their prices are low. Starfall Shop will be a strong competitor,” Josiah said solemnly.
“President, don’t worry too much. Every new shop has a promotional period. These prices are unlikely to last,” Charles reassured him.
“I understand that. Selling at these prices long-term would yield no profit,” Josiah nodded.
Another comforting thought was that Lord’s Manor’s shop mainly catered to Spirit Master and Spirit General levels. Cultivators above Spirit General level would still need to come to the Everlasting Trade Association for their needs.
As they conversed, Josiah noticed someone looking at him. Seeing that it was Leo, his expression stiffened.
Charles also noticed Leo’s gaze and whispered, “President, the new lord has noticed us.”
“Let’s go over and offer our congratulations,” Josiah said calmly.
The two walked up to Leo. Josiah cupped his hands and lowered his stance as he said, “Lord, congratulations on your shop’s opening.”
Josiah was well aware of his position. Although he was from the Everlasting Trade Association, he was merely a branch president in Clearwind Town.
Moreover, his strength was only at the peak of upper-level Spirit Sect. In front of this new lord who could easily kill Spirit Saint level experts, he dared not show any arrogance.
As for Charles beside him, he respectfully kept his head down.
He never imagined that the young man who once came to the Everlasting Trade Association would become the lord of Clearwind Town in such a short time.
“President Woods, you’re too kind,” Leo smiled and nodded.
After a brief conversation, Josiah and Charles took their leave.
Night fell.
Starfall Shop remained bustling. Some newly arrived cultivators also rushed over upon hearing the news to make purchases.
“Sect Leader, our sales exceeded one million Low-Quality Spirit Stones on the first day,” Alondra reported to Leo in the hall the next morning.
Leo was very satisfied with this sales figure and encouraged Alondra to continue her efforts.
Since Starfall Shop did not raise prices after its opening day, sales remained strong in the following days.
Cultivators from nearby Maple City flocked to Clearwind Town upon hearing they could buy top-grade pills at mid-grade prices.
Some merchants were clever enough to buy large quantities of pills from Starfall Shop without any purchase limits and resell them in other towns.
Merchants from Phoenix Cry City, Heaven Wind City, Maple City, and other towns in the Martial Dynasty also got wind of this news.
Enticed by huge profits, they braved long journeys and potential risks to travel to Clearwind Town to buy spirit herbs in bulk.
The bustling commerce led to a significant increase in foot traffic on Clearwind Town’s wide streets.
The success of Starfall Shop also boosted other industries in Clearwind Town.
Cultivators quickly sold off monster pelts, inner cores, elixirs, and meat they hunted.
Sales at various restaurants, shops, and inns also surged rapidly.
Most importantly, Starfall Shop’s reputation spread far and wide through these traveling merchants.
On the sixth day after Starfall Shop’s opening, an event caused quite a stir.
An Honored Elder recruited by Lord’s Manor successfully underwent tribulation outside Clearwind Town and broke through to lower-level Spirit Saint!
Six days later, a second Honored Elder successfully underwent tribulation and advanced to lower-level Spirit Saint!
Fifteen days later, two Honored Elders simultaneously sensed Thunder Tribulation. One perished while the other successfully underwent tribulation outside Clearwind Town.
Eighteen days later, a fifth Honored Elder sensed Thunder Tribulation and successfully underwent tribulation outside town!
Twenty-eight days later, a sixth Honored Elder sensed Thunder Tribulation and successfully underwent tribulation!
In just one month, six out of ten Honored Elders recruited by Lord’s Manor underwent tribulation with five succeeding. This explosive news shocked countless cultivators!
As a result, every day saw strong cultivators at Spirit King level requesting to join Lord’s Manor.
