171 Commission Shop (1/2)

When Happy returned to the city, Phoenix Dances sent him a message and said that there were enough people who could buy his high-tier martial art manuals.

Happy soon sent the five Ten Thousand Poisonous Palms over along with the low-tier martial art manuals—Thousand Corpse Hands—that were necessary to her. Of course, he also sent her the Demon Subduing Staff and Silver-spiked Staff as well as the other two high-tier martial arts he had bought in Luoyang.

It was a total of eight high-tier martial art manuals! It made Happy's savings account instantly jump up to two million, and he appeared at the top of the Rich Rank again. Fortunately, no one could figure out where he was at that moment, so he had the chance to safely dispose of his money.

”What should I buy?”

Happy wandered around the city in a gloomy manner.

If he did not spend the two million he had on him, he would definitely attract a lot of people lusting over his money and coveting his items. Even though he did not need to worry with his current abilities, his martial arts would never improve if he kept getting into fights with other players. It was just not good.

Right then, he really wanted to push his Shadowless Kick to Grandmaster Realm, then quickly start practicing Stormy Shadowless Kick.

Even though the damage of Stormy Shadowless Kick was weak, its superspeed was practically unparalleled among the high-tier martial arts that could be learned at Blessed Realm. Movies often portrayed such skills: once Shadowless Kick was executed, not only would the enemies not have any way to fight back, they would also be left in a daze after being struck.

It was the same in World of Martial Arts.

While high-tier martial arts with high damage were powerful, if the user had no chance to use them, they were useless. Unless, of course, the enemy's equipment was several times stronger and could completely shrug off Stormy Shadowless Kick's damage.

Happy walked on the streets of Luoyang. After walking down several of them, he still did not manage to find anything suitable. He frowned and wondered when he would ever be able to find anything if he continued walking around like that. Hence, he decided to take a turn and walk into a commission shop nearby.

Commission shops were actually very normal shops. Players could place the items they wanted to sell to them, and the shops would put them on the shelves. The prices would be set by the players, but they would also need to pay a certain amount of rent. Of course, they could also give the commission shop money and have them send out the news that they wanted to buy certain items.

Since the rental fees were rather high, the players for the time being found it rather hard to bear the price. Hence, there were very few who put their items on sale in the commission shops. Only three men and one woman moved about the counter.

When Happy entered the commission shop, he immediately captured the attention of the four people!

This was especially so since the marks of the battle Happy had had in the mass grave still remained on his chest. The claw marks of the Thousand Year Corpse King were on his clothes, and it was a terrifying sight to behold. A murderous and dangerous aura was added to his handsome and relaxed demeanor.

The four people seemed to be together.

They swept a glance at the incredibly eye-catching claw marks with the black borders on the young man's chest, and their eyes lit up. They exchanged a fascinated gaze before one of them said, ”This person just returned from outside the city. He might have been to the mass graves.”

They temporarily stopped looking around and stood aside quietly to pay attention to the stranger's actions.

Happy had played the game for three years, so he had a faint air of it about him. Hence, he was especially sensitive to the gazes on him.

However, he was not at all worried about the group of four since he was in the city right then.

He walked up to the counter of the commission shop and chose the [BUY] option. Once he paid the rent, he deposited a total of two million in a familiar motion and entered a note in the [ITEM WANTED] option.

[Any high-tier martial art. One book for two hundred thousand taels of silver.]

With two million taels of silver crumbs, he could buy ten high-tier martial art manuals. He would just have to see whether there was anyone who was willing to sell them.

However, regardless of whether anyone would be able to take his money or not, it would still be considered to have been temporarily taken out of his wallet. Hence, the two million would not be counted into the Rich Rank!

The news of him seeking to buy the manuals would spread through the game via the commission shop. There was one in every city, and each one would provide the same service of buying manuals from players for two hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs. There would be a notice specially placed outside and inside the shop about it.

Once he finished setting up his request, Happy turned around and left. He did not stop for even an additional second.

The three men and one woman in the commission shop simultaneously cast their gazes on the notice that had Happy's request.

Right before their eyes, the newest trading information in the commission shop appeared.

[Player XX will buy one high-tier martial art manual for two hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs! Current traded number of martial art manuals: 0. Money remaining: 2,000,000 taels of silver crumbs.]

”Oh…”

The four people looked at each other at a loss.
