Chapter 22: Reflections on Martial Arts >

of the squads."Wow, what an amazing pair of goggles.""Look at Zhou Quan, he already has 20 combat power in level 1, so strong.""Yeah, I'm a C-grade talent. My initial combat power is only 12 points."“...When one's pocket has rice, one's heart is filled with joy.

"Now the common people are truly, truly happy."

Yun Feng, carrying a "huge sum of money" and humming a tune, walked toward the sales area.

The selling area is much busier than the purchasing area, with a wide variety of goods on offer, dazzling to the eye.

There are too many types of weapons.

Looking at the arsenal, a dizzying array of weapons, Yun Feng sighed in his heart.

Most of these weapons were crafted by using materials from monsters to forge fragments and assemble them into objects.

Although it can't compare to fragment synthetics in every aspect, it is still usable, mainly because it's cheap.

"Fellow students, the sword in your hand is a replica of the Bronze-ranked Thunderclap Blade, which can definitely increase your combat power by over 300 points. You can equip it when you reach level 10 and above. For only 250,000, you can own this five times handsome sword."

Yunfeng was holding a lightning-flashing long blade in his hand, and the way it battled against the flames in his storage ring was quite similar. It just had different attributes.

Hearing the shopkeeper's enthusiastic introduction, Yun Feng lightly put down his war sword.

This counterfeit is quite different from the genuine article.

His flamesword can provide around 1000 points of combat power.

These weapons also have shard synthesis, but the prices are outrageously expensive.

A bronze-tier battle sword would cost over 500,000, and even an average Awakener family would have to grit their teeth to buy one. Let alone those silver equipment that cost several million every time they were moved.

As for the golden equipment, those are treasures of the shop, non-sale items.

As for equipment of the Gold Tier or above, no force would be foolish enough to put it up for sale; those are strategic materials.

"Classmates, 220,000 is acceptable, 200,000, 200,000 you take it, it really can't be lower."

Seeing Yun Feng preparing to leave, the seller hurriedly called out.

However, with delicacies from mountains and seas at his disposal, how could Yunfeng possibly look down on such stale food

However, through these replicas, we can also see the infinite wisdom and indomitable spirit that humans possess in this harsh environment.

Passing through the weapons area, Yun Feng bypassed the martial arts area directly. He found all the martial arts here to be copies and thought there was nothing interesting to see.

Upon arriving in the fragment area, Yun Feng discovered that the fragments sold here were particularly scarce. Every shop was the same.

After all, people with fragmented lives will generally choose to exchange on platforms.

Unless someone is desperate for money, they won't sell their fragments.

Basic property potion shards are the easiest to synthesize and require the fewest shards. Black Iron rank only needs 4 shards.

Therefore, most of the items sold by merchants are this kind of fragments.

Although Yun Feng's foundation in alchemy hasn't reached its limit yet, he doesn't plan on buying these fragments here. He needs to keep his money for more crucial uses.

"Classmates, if you want anything, you can tell me."

The merchant smiled and asked.

And Yun Feng didn't even glance at the other person. He hated it most when salespeople came over and gave him a long spiel about their products, he felt the same way in his past life.

His principle for buying things is: Don't ask me anything, just let me be. If I ask you something, just answer.

Along the shops, I walked all the way but didn't see any desired fragments.

Now he mainly wants some silver fragments that he can use, and some rare black iron and bronze fragments.

"May I ask, how much is this piece selling for"

Yun Feng stood beside a counter, holding a piece of azure crystal fragment in his hand.

Behind the counter was a thin girl who looked somewhat malnourished.

But the smile on her face made people feel unusually comfortable, and her beautiful and delicate features made her appear even more youthful and vibrant.

...and she was still wearing her school uniform, which showed that she had run here straight from school.

This is a bronze-tier sleeve arrow fragment, belonging to the category of hidden weapons. It can be considered a supporting piece of equipment.

She looks about the same age as me, but she's very good at her job.

"This kind of fragment is rather rare. Are you sure you want to buy it"

He glanced at the girl, then at her school uniform.

"Are you from District 5, Sector 2 Just awakened this year"

Yun Feng didn't answer the girl's question, but instead asked casually.

"Uh huh."

The girl also took a look at her school uniform, seeming a little embarrassed. She smiled and nodded.

"These fragments weren't all brought back from another dimension, were they"

Yunfeng was just casually asking, after all, at their level, the only way to obtain bronze fragments was to kill elite monsters.

However, this time, the girl didn't answer. Instead, she smiled at him.

Yun Feng knew that this must have been the default, which meant that the seemingly frail girl before him possessed the ability to kill elite monsters of the same level. Whether she had done it alone or not, she had definitely awakened an extraordinary talent.

A barely perceptible gleam flashed in his eyes.

"I'd like to collect and try these a few together, could you calculate the price for me"

Yunfeng didn't ask any further, instead turning his attention to the goods. He casually picked up a piece of silver-grade martial arts fragment and two pieces of black iron fragments with basic attributes.

"Okay, it's 201,000 in total. I'll round it down for you, making it 200,000."

Yunfeng made no counteroffers and directly handed out his bank card.

The $960,000 I just got disappeared in an instant, losing 200,000.

However, Yunfeng didn't feel sorry at all, instead, he was a little excited.

If he wanted to make money, these pieces could be synthesized and then sold for a price that would definitely be several dozen times more valuable.

Welcome back next time.

Leaving the sales point, charmed by the girl's sweet voice and kind smile.

Then, Yunfeng took another stroll around here, buying some small things here and there before heading home.

Back home, it was past nine o'clock. Luckily, he lived alone and no one cared about him.

Let's go for a round of fragment synthesis.

Yúnfēng excitedly took out all the fragments he had bought at the exchange.

The first to be synthesized were several Black Iron-grade fragments.

Obtained 2 strength potions, 2 speed potions, 1 defense potion, and 1 spirit potion.

"Drink it while it's hot."

Yún Fēng poured all six vials of potion into his mouth.

A surge of heat rushed from my lower abdomen straight to my forehead. The feeling was indescribable, a mix of excitement and discomfort.

That's why he's so extravagant, wanting to max out every potion.

Most people take drugs for a specific purpose. For example, Zhou Quan mainly uses speed drugs and power drugs as a supplement. The other two types of drugs are really unnecessary.

...and elements are also primarily spirit potions, with speed potions as a supplement.

After taking the medicine, Yunfeng took out that piece of bronze shard.

After the synthesis, a tiny arrow appeared in his palm.

"This is a good thing, too bad it has to wait until level 10 before you can use it."

Unlike melee weapons and other gear, holding ten swords still only grants you the combat power of one sword. However, equipping concealed weapons provides a bonus.

Having put away his sleeve arrow and two bottles of bronze medicine, Yunfeng looked at the two silver fragments he had been most looking forward to.

One was a swordsmanship learned from the old man Zhang, the acquirer. The other was a body technique bought from that female student.

Under the glow of ancient jade, a translucent miniature book made of jade appeared in one's hand.

"Silver Grade Martial Skill: Heavenly Demon Blade Technique, Comprehension Times: 10"

Using goggles at home is not a big deal.

The small book in hand also displayed corresponding information on the virtual screen.

"No wonder it was said that the original copy would be much simpler than the martial arts of the Toho, that was a one-time product, this could be used ten times."

Yunfeng lovingly played with the martial arts book in his hand.

Then, Yunfeng stuck the small jade book to his brow.

Cold and refreshing.

As his eyes slowly closed, a black and white ink painting appeared in his mind.

Against a backdrop of pure white, a black figure stands with a sword held aloft at an angle. His stance is rigid and imposing.

In a moment, the figure stirred, like ink flowing on white paper. A majestic set of sword techniques unfolded from the shadow.

Either stabbing forward with a drawn sword, or parrying sideways with a raised blade, or whirling the sword around in a sweeping arc, or lifting the sword for a flying thrust.

A complete set of movements, flowing seamlessly, a feast for the eyes.

"Is that it"

Not until the knife skills demonstration was over did Yunfeng realize that he was somewhat dazed.

"I f***ing seem to remember nothing at all."

Yún Fēng, unwilling to give up, took out his own black iron sword and tried to imitate it, but he couldn't do it at all.

"This is too hard, no wonder they say martial arts become harder to learn the higher the level. A silver-ranked expert just blew my mind."

Yun Feng looked at the mini book in his hand. At this moment, it only showed 9 times of insight.

"How do I feel like I wasted a time I don't believe it."

Yunfeng picked up the book and pressed it against his brow.

The familiar scene appeared once more, this time he focused all his attention on the dark shadow.

After going through the reflection once, I didn't stop. I took advantage of the momentum and continued to reflect again.

After five consecutive bouts of contemplation, Yunfeng finally put down the book in his hand.

At this moment, a rudimentary outline of swordsmanship finally took shape in his mind.

"I guess no one has butchered the original Silver Martial Arts as badly as I have."

Yúnfēng looked at the clock hanging on the wall. The second hand was ticking, and the minute hand had slowly pointed to twelve.

Yun Feng didn't want to miss the opportunity to practice the sword technique that lingered in his mind. He picked up a watermelon knife and began practicing at home.

He wouldn't dare practice with a battle sword at home, he'd tear the house down.

Even without serious practice, a hint of sharpness could be seen in the path carved by the watermelon knife.

Half an hour later, Yun Feng was panting heavily, his whole body drenched in sweat.

"This silver-rank martial art is really not something I, at my level, can use."

Yunfeng felt he was almost there, but the spiritual energy within him wasn't enough to allow him to use it skillfully.

"That's it for today, I'll continue practicing tomorrow."

Yun Feng looked at the other miniature jade book in his hand.
