Chapter 11 - Irresistible
Su Mu was initially startled by the surging crowd that came his way, but he quickly regained his composure.
He recognized these people and heard the clamor coming from their mouths.
"Su Mu, you've finally arrived!"
"Did you bring the special effect qi refining pills? I want to buy them!"
"I want some too, give me five boxes!"
"Hurry up, big shot, I'm waiting to cultivate with your special effect qi refining pills."
These were the students who had received a sample of the qi refining pills the night before.
After experiencing their effects, they had no doubts left and wanted to quickly buy five boxes of the special effect qi refining pills to capitalize on the last half-month before the cultivation examination, hoping to increase their spiritual qi value by a few more points.
Of course, their excitement was also related to the time-limited discount Su Mu had offered.
The discount was available only today, allowing them to buy five boxes of the special effect qi refining pills for 20,000 yuan. After today, the price would jump to 50,000 yuan!
They were also worried about the possibility of limited supplies of the special effect qi refining pills today. If they were too slow and the pills sold out, wouldn't they miss the time-limited discount?
Even though they could come up with 50,000 yuan if they gritted their teeth, who would want to pay an extra 30,000 yuan if they could help it?
Su Mu was quickly surrounded tightly by the crowd, each person speaking over the other, their loud voices giving him a headache.
He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Stop! Don't push, don't shout, just listen to me for a second..."
However, the response he got was even louder clamoring, "Stop the nonsense, take the money and give us the special effect qi refining pills! Hurry up!"
Left with no choice, Su Mu had to pull out his trump card and yelled, "Everyone, stop! If you keep pushing and shouting, there will be no more discount, and you'll all wait to pay the full price!"
The noisy crowd immediately quieted down.
No one wanted to lose the discount.
A few people didn't hear Su Mu's warning and still tried to push forward, but they were promptly restrained by those around them. The crowd turned around and glared at them, whispering fiercely, "Stop pushing and making a fuss. If you cause us to lose the discount, you're dead!"
These few were frightened, trembling, looking weak, pitiable, and helpless.
Su Mu nodded in satisfaction and then said, "If you want to buy the special effect qi refining pills, you'll need to keep order. Line up outside the classroom, I'll call you in one by one. Don't worry, the special effect qi refining pills won't be limited in quantity, but if anyone disobeys, the discount is gone, and so are the pills."
People didn't dare to offend Su Mu.

Losing the discount and the pills just like that—who could bear it?
Luckily, Su Mu's assurance calmed them down.
They obediently followed orders, quickly forming a long line in the corridor. Then, they turned to Su Mu. Though silent, their eyes urged him impatiently, "What are you waiting for? Start selling the pills already, our wallets can't wait!"
Su Mu ignored them, reaching down to help Liu Peng up from the ground, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Liu Peng said, rubbing his backside and smiling.
As long as the special effect qi refining pills sold well and in large quantities, Su Mu would be content even if he was knocked over time and time again.
Seeing that Liu Peng was truly alright, Su Mu was relieved and instructed, "Keep an eye on things here. If anyone doesn't follow the order, kick them out."
"No problem, leave it to me," Liu Peng nodded in agreement, assuring that he would handle the task well.
Su Mu entered the classroom with his backpack.
There were about a dozen people inside the classroom; others had either not arrived yet or were lined up in the hallway outside.
These dozen or so people had also witnessed the scene that had just unfolded outside the classroom and were shocked. However, their spiritual qi values were not high, and even using the special effect qi refining pills, they couldn't boost their spiritual qi value to 900 in half a month, so they didn't join the commotion.
Since they couldn't pass the exam anyway, why waste the money.
No sooner had Su Mu reached his seat than the student first in line in the hallway stuck his head in the classroom door, eager to ask, "Su Mu, can I come in now?"
"Come in," Su Mu said. As the student hurried over, Su Mu asked, "How many do you want?"
"Five boxes. Can I pay with Alipay?"
"Sure."
Su Mu opened the Alipay's payment collection feature and displayed the QR code to the student. Only after the student scanned the code and completed the payment did Su Mu take a bag of special effect qi refining pills out of his backpack and handed it over.
"There are sixty pills in this bag, just the right amount for five boxes. Count them."
Even though the pills weren't packaged and were just in a small plastic bag, no one looked down on these alchemical pills. On the contrary, each one of them looked at the pills with intense desire.
"I trust you, Su Mu. The count is definitely correct," the student said. But still, he stealthily counted the pills to make sure the number was right before leaving with a beaming smile.
The rest of the line followed suit.
Almost everyone bought five boxes of the special effect qi refining pills.
This was because the discount for five boxes was the largest, and for half a month's time, they would likely need all five boxes.
