It was not just Rebirth. In any game, to judge whether something was good or bad, apart from looking at its original attributes and functions, the most important factor was its background story.
Obviously, the system was more concerned about its reputation this time. Wang Yu had gone through a lot of trouble for this mission and had even destroyed a main city. No matter how shameless the system was, it was too embarrassed to give Wang Yu a rubbish skill.
Although Wang Yu's skill did not specifically describe the power and energy consumption of the Dragon-Subduing Palm, it was not difficult to tell from the background story that this was definitely an unparalleled skill.
After all, it was the first time that everyone had seen a skill like the Dragon-Subduing Palm described in the background story. Slaying gods and demons, invincible in the present age. Just the last sentence alone made everyone feel elated.
The skills of the others were also quite powerful S-rank skills, but when compared to Wang Yu's Dragon-Subduing Palm, no one felt embarrassed to boast.
However, skills were not too important to Wang Yu, especially a skill that sounded so powerful. The preparation time and MP consumption would definitely be very shocking.
In contrast, Wang Yu preferred skills that had less MP consumption and could be integrated into his martial arts.
Even Hermit had said that the wise sought power from within. In the eyes of Wang Yu, who had a complete set of combat skills, these game skills were also considered external power.
The essence of martial arts was the consistency of combat skills. No matter how powerful those external forces that hindered one's own strength were, they were all a burden to a qualified martial artist.
Therefore, Wang Yu's attitude toward the Dragon-Subduing Palm was not like the other people in Quanzhen who regarded it as a divine skill. Instead, he said indifferently, "I don't know much about this skill. The key is whether it is practical or not."
"Come on, Old Cow is a typical example of someone who takes advantage of others and pretends to be obedient." Apart from Yang Na, who was also a martial artist, everyone expressed their disdain towards Wang Yu, who was just standing there and talking nonsense.
…
The auction would start at eight o 'clock in the evening tomorrow. However, Wang Yu had always been a punctual person, so in the afternoon of the next day, Wang Yu and Quanzhen's group arrived at the Free City.
Truth be told, Wang Yu did not expect Quanzhen's group to tag along. However, after witnessing Wang Yu's skills, they felt pressured from within. One after another, they expressed that since they had money, they should not wait for it to depreciate. They must do something meaningful, such as going to the auction to buy some equipment.
The people of Quanzhen could be said to be overflowing with wealth. In terms of gold coins, there really weren't many people who were richer than them. They were qualified to come here to buy things.
As soon as they got off the airship, Quanzhen's group felt that the Free Cities were different today.
The Free City was a main city of the same level as the City of War God. In terms of scale, it was much larger than Yu Huicheng's. However, the players on the streets were crowded shoulder to shoulder, and it was extremely crowded. It was as if the major guilds had besieged Yu Huicheng not long ago.
It had to be known that the map of "Rebirth" was still very large. Since the start of the game, everyone had never been so crowded except for the day when the game was officially launched.
The strong warriors were still better off, but for mages like Mingdu, who were relatively thin and frail, he was almost squeezed out of the group several times. This made Mingdu, who was already irascible, very angry. He raised his staff, and lightning surrounded him as he stretched out his hand to slaughter people …
Fortunately, Wang Yu's eyes and hands were sharp. He stretched out his hand and pressed Mingdu to the ground. "Control your temper. This isn't Yu Huicheng's."
As he spoke, Wang Yu pointed at the guards at the corner of the wall. There was a sentry every ten steps.
Why was the Free Cities so peaceful? It was because the guards were very intimidating. If players dared to cause trouble, the guards could easily suppress them. No matter how different the ideologies of the two factions were, they had to sit down obediently and talk things out in front of the guards.
Radiant City was still filled with reverence towards these guards.
"Hiss …"
Seeing so many guards, Mingdu gasped. "F * ck, why are there so many players in this lousy place?"
"How would I know? There weren't so many people when I came yesterday." Wang Yu pursed his lips.
Although the Free Cities weren't small, compared to Yu Huicheng, they only had more guards. The players were actually at the level of an ordinary main city.
At that time, Wuji said calmly, "Obviously, these are the players from the major guilds who came to participate in the auction. It seems like Old Nine's methods of creating hype are much better than ours."
"That's for sure." Famous Sword Daoxue said, "Last night, I was browsing the forums. The headlines on the front page of the major forums were all about today's auction. They are professionals."
"Players who are participating in the auction?" Hearing Wuji's words, everyone looked around hurriedly.
As expected, the surrounding players were all in groups, and every group had the same badge hanging on their chests. It seemed like they were all here for the castellan's seal.
It seemed like the saying "marketing hype is a family" was true. In order to sell their goods, merchants were always keen on creating public opinion. Who knew how many years ago, November 11th and December weren't holidays. Now, eating dumplings on Christmas Day and the price of apples on Christmas Eve had become a custom.
Of course, the more people there were, the better it was for Wang Yu. The higher the competition, the higher the price … Everyone understood this logic.
Therefore, the group had no choice but to put away their gloomy mood and fly into the room, which was more spacious.
When the Quanzhen Sect's group arrived at the entrance of the auction house, the first thing that caught their eyes was a large sign. The meaning of the sign was also very simple and clear — all players with a net worth of less than 200,000 gold are prohibited from entering.
This was very normal. There were only so many seats in the auction. Of course, they couldn't let everyone in. As the saying went, there were policies from above and countermeasures from below. Old Jiu could only put up such a large sign at the entrance of the auction.
Looking at this large sign, Quanzhen's group couldn't help but sigh. An auction that dared to shout out such a slogan was probably the legendary case of a big shop bullying its customers.
It couldn't be helped. After all, they were doing business for the rich. They couldn't be bothered to earn the money of ordinary people. Moreover, this kind of classification could also increase the vanity of the players who were qualified to enter the auction, just like the so-called VIP system.
As a businessman, Old Jiu was still very competent.
In the game, apart from Quanzhen's group, the only people who could carry a huge sum of 200,000 gold with them were the guild leaders and second generations of the big guilds.
Due to this almost strict entry requirement, the number of players who could enter the auction was naturally an extremely small portion.
Even so, there were still three to four hours before the auction started, and the venue was already filled with people.
After all, it was the castellan's seal. Guilds with a little bit of capital came to join in the fun. Even if they couldn't buy it, it was good enough to take a look.
