**Chapter 7 Selling Talismans**
"12 years old; Auxiliary Soul Master; Martial Soul - Talisman; Level 11!"
"No problem, given your situation, you can enroll in our Tianbao Academy!"
At the registration office of Tianbao Academy, an intermediate Soul Master academy, Gu Ziyi showed his junior academy graduation diploma to the admission teacher, and he was quickly approved.
This is a regular intermediate Soul Master academy with relatively simple admission requirements, which is ideal for Gu Ziyi.
"Okay, how much is the academy's registration fee, teacher?"
Gu Ziyi didn't continue choosing other intermediate Soul Master academies and decided to join the Tianbao Academy in front of him.
So, he directly asked how much the registration fee was. The registration fees for each academy were different, but they usually cost about 10 soul gold coins.
"Ten soul gold coins, are you registering early now?"
Sure enough, the registration fee mentioned by the admission teacher was ten soul gold coins.
"No, I'll return to register on the official registration day."
Gu Ziyi quickly shook his head, as he didn't have that many soul gold coins with him now.
After leaving Tianbao Academy, he directly called a carriage and set off for the nearest Soul Beast Forest.
Of course, what Gu Ziyi went to do wasn't related to the wild Soul Beast Forest but rather the Soul Beast Forest kept in captivity by the Martial Soul Hall. It was also the novice Soul Beast Forest where most low-level Soul Masters hunted.
"There's still a little over a month left, which should be enough for me to earn the ten soul gold coins!"
Gu Ziyi thought to himself while sitting in the carriage.
At the same time, he began condensing a "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" from time to time.
That's right, Gu Ziyi thought of selling his talismans at the entrance of the Soul Beast Forest.
Not only are there Soul Masters forming teams to hunt Soul Beasts together, but there are also teams dedicated to helping others hunt Soul Beasts.
Gu Ziyi's talisman can last for about two days under normal circumstances, making it suitable for sale there.
Of course, the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" is only effective for 10 minutes when used.
He could pour more Soul Power into invoking a "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" with a longer duration and effectiveness, but that wasn't necessary. The common "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" was sufficient to be sold.

"Looking for an agile attack-type Soul Master or an auxiliary-type Soul Master, and then the team will be ready to go..."
"We're missing a strong attack-type Soul Master..."
"A professional team specialized in helping newcomers hunt Soul Beasts. If you're interested, discuss your request in detail, and our prices will be favorable!"
"…"
When Gu Ziyi arrived at the Soul Beast Forest, he heard shouting before he even got close.
After wandering a bit, he chose a suitable spot. After laying out a cloth on the ground, he set up a sign next to him with the prices.
"Selling talismans, 1 soul silver coin each, the price is favorable, it's no trick!"
"The function of the talisman: eliminate tension and give you the mindset of a strong man, like a Title Douluo in battle! At the same time, it can also alleviate abnormal mental states and make you immune to mental attacks for a duration of 10 minutes."
Gu Ziyi directly revealed the function of the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman."
As for the talisman's role in helping with cultivation, he definitely wouldn't mention that.
And as long as he kept his mouth shut, Gu Ziyi believed no one would waste a talisman by using it during cultivation.
The likelihood of anyone discovering that was still very low.
And even if it were discovered, it wouldn't be a big deal either.
"Talisman? What's that?"
"Auxiliary props?"
"Eliminate tension? A mindset like a Title Douluo? Is this a scam?"
"I've never heard of this kind of auxiliary prop..."
"Yeah, I didn't expect there to be such an auxiliary Martial Soul..."
"A soul silver coin is a bit expensive..."
"…"
As soon as Gu Ziyi set up his stall, it attracted a lot of attention.
Since this was the first time a Talisman, an auxiliary Martial Soul, had appeared in the history of the Douluo Continent, everyone was naturally curious.
"The products are genuine and fairly priced!"
"I can only condense ten talismans a day, and I'll be selling while stocks last!"
Seeing that he had attracted attention, Gu Ziyi quickly stood up and clarified to potential customers.
Gu Ziyi wasn't a greedy merchant trying to create artificial scarcity. His Soul Power was only enough to summon about ten talismans a day, which explained the limited stock at his stall.
So as long as they sold, ten pieces a day would be enough for him. Gu Ziyi would have to spend the rest of the time practicing anyway!
"Don't talk nonsense. It's just a soul silver coin. Give me one and let me see if it's really that powerful!"
As soon as Gu Ziyi finished speaking, a burly man threw a soul silver coin at him and then grabbed one of the "Heart Purifying Curse Talismans" from the stall.
"How do I use this?"
After grabbing the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman," the burly man looked directly at Gu Ziyi and asked how to use the talisman.
"Just inject Soul Power to activate it and place it anywhere on your body!"
Gu Ziyi explained.
"I'll try it right now then!"
When the burly man heard the explanation, without further ado, he placed the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" on his body after injecting Soul Power into the talisman.
Buzz—
The "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" was immediately attached to the man's body by his movements. After a burst of yellow light, the talisman disappeared into the man's body.
"Uh—"
The moment the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman" took effect, the expression of the burly man suddenly changed. Not only that, but the man's temperament also shifted.
Originally, the burly man looked like the impulsive and reckless type, but now his demeanor completely changed, giving people a sense of elegance, with calm eyes and a peaceful aura.
"It really is different. How long can this kind of talisman be stored?"
After calming down, the man calmly asked Gu Ziyi about the duration the talisman could be kept unused.
"Two days!"
Gu Ziyi answered.
"Give me five more!"
The man heard this and directly placed an order without any hesitation.
Having personally used the "Heart Purifying Curse Talisman," he knew very well that it was worth every penny to buy this kind of accessory.
If he used this talisman in battle, he wasn't sure if he'd have the same mindset as a Title Douluo, but he was certain that the talisman's support effect would be excellent.
As he was about to lead his team out, he decisively chose to buy more of these talismans.
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
Gu Ziyi was very pleased to see this, as business had officially started!
There were three more talismans left in the stall, so Gu Ziyi summoned two more "Heart Purifying Curse Talismans" on the spot for the burly man.
"Is it really that magical?"
"Give me one too!"
"It can be stored for two days? Then give me one…"
"…"

As Gu Ziyi was selling his talismans, in a certain place at the foot of the Haotian Sect Mountain...
Two girls turned to look at the sect and left without looking back.
"Cousin, do we really have to run away from home?"
One of the girls looked back as they walked and asked the other, uncertainty in her voice about the decision.
"Of course, I don't want to stay in the sect anymore!"
The girl who was asked, Tang Yuehua, answered without a hint of hesitation.
Since her Martial Soul had mutated and she couldn't cultivate, Tang Yuehua couldn't avoid receiving some strange looks from other people, even though she was the Sect Leader's daughter.
Tang Yuehua had already grown tired of those looks.
So Tang Yuehua planned to leave and find a Soul Master Academy as far away as possible to experience ordinary academy life.
Traveling with her was her cousin Bai Lu, just a few months older than her and the daughter of her uncle Bai He.
