Starmoon Kingdom, White River City:
Although White River City was not the same as Star-Moon Royal City, its fame did not lie in its height; its fame did not lie in its depth; its spirit did not lie in its depth.
As the headquarters of the number one Guild in Starmoon Kingdom, Ling Yi, as well as Candlelight's new products, the Starmoon Kingdom's players had long since treated White River City as the kingdom's capital.
Now, White River City was the only city in the Starmoon Kingdom that had promoted its Auction House. Every day, players and newcomers from various cities in the Starmoon Kingdom gathered here. The city's prosperity even rivaled that of an ordinary empire's imperial capital.
At this moment, a dozen or so Level 64 players, all of them wearing the same Guild Emblem, stood in the second-floor hall of White River City's Auction House. These players wore beautiful equipment, and they all wore the same Guild Emblem. Arrogance and disdain filled these players' eyes as they watched the experts compete in the Auction House.
"As expected of a small kingdom. These local Guilds have fought so many battles. Although their equipment is quite good, their standards are abysmal. They can't even compare to some of our second-rate Guilds in the Dark Night Empire. It's no wonder why Ling Yi can dominate the Starmoon Kingdom." A Level 64 Berserker sneered as he glanced at the members of the Starmoon Kingdom's several large Guilds.
The Berserker's voice was not soft. To players with Tier 2 physiques, they could hear him clearly even from 50 yards away. However, none of the players present dared to say a word. Instead, they all lowered their heads in silence.
This was because this Berserker had the right to be arrogant.
During the various gambling matches in the Auction House, this Berserker had won 20 consecutive matches. Many of his opponents had been peak experts from Starmoon Kingdom's large Guilds. However, not a single one of them had been able to reduce this Berserker's HP below 80%. Not even two of them had been able to do so.
Moreover, this Berserker was one of the ten great experts of the Bloodbath Family, a first-rate Guild in the Dark Night Empire.
The Bloodbath Family was a veteran first-rate Guild. Currently, it was the strongest Guild in the Dark Night Empire, excluding the Dark Night Empire's three major powers. The Bloodbath Family occupied a medium-sized kingdom and a small kingdom. Ordinary first-rate Guilds were no match for the Bloodbath Family.
"Although these Guilds are weak, the fact that the Ling YI Society is Star-Moon's overlord proves that it is capable of doing so. After all, Ling YI has four experts ranked on the God's Domain Experts List. Hei Yan, in particular, has killed many superpowers' peak experts," a dark-gray mage robed youth said.
Ling Yi had made a name for herself in the Dark Night Empire. She had helped the Hundred Flowers Palace fend off Starlink's assault, surprising the empire's various large Guilds. As a result, many of them had investigated Ling Yi.
However, the more he investigated, the more frightened he became.
The Dark Night Empire's various large Guilds were not surprised by the Ling YI Society's development speed. Rather, they were shocked by the number of frightening existences Ling Yi had provoked.
The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Nine Dragons Emperor, Evil God's Temple, Pantheon, Blackwater, Miracle, and the Dark Night Empire's Starlink.
Any one of these powers was enough to make their scalps tingle, yet Ling Yi had offended every one of them. Just the fact that Ling Yi had survived until now was already unbelievable.
"Ling Yi's glory has come to an end. In the past, the various superpowers were busy with their own matters. Moreover, I've heard that the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Feng Qianyu is helping Ling Yi. That's why the various superpowers didn't do anything to Ling Yi. Unfortunately, things are different now. The various superpowers are determined to claim White River City this time. Even if Feng Qianyu shows up, it won't change anything," Dust Blood said, sneering.
In the eyes of other Guilds, it might be amazing for their experts to be ranked on the God's Domain Experts List, but it was nothing to the various superpowers. Moreover, the God's Domain Experts List only ranked players based on battle records, not individual strength.
Although many experts in God's Domain didn't have any amazing battle records, their strength couldn't be underestimated. Take the Bloodbath Family for example. In terms of individual strength, the Bloodbath Family had several members that were even stronger than the Refinement Realm experts on the God's Domain Experts List, yet none of them had made it to the God's Domain Experts List.
Only small Guilds and independent players took the God's Domain Experts List seriously. To the truly major powers, the God's Domain Experts List was only a source of information. It couldn't reflect a Guild's strength.
Moreover, the struggle for control of the Auction House couldn't rely on war tools. It was a competition between a Guild's resources and experts. There was no room for deception. The war weapons Ling Yi had obtained through luck would be useless in this situation. Even veteran peak first-rate Guilds like the Bloodbath Family were no match for Ling Yi, let alone the various superpowers.
"You're right. The various superpowers won't give face to anyone in the struggle for control of the Auction House. To gain control of the Auction House, even those old monsters that normally don't show themselves are taking action. The so-called God's Domain Experts List is nothing more than a joke," the youth said, fear and longing flashing in his eyes when he spoke of those old monsters.
The previous struggles in God's Domain had only been small skirmishes. Large-scale battles were rare. Moreover, the various superpowers had been focused on nurturing their younger generation, so their true experts hadn't taken action. If those old experts had taken action, the younger generation wouldn't have been as glorious.
Geniuses?
Geniuses?
All of them were jokes!
"Ling Yi sure is unlucky. Originally, he could've lived a peaceful life as a mountain king, but now that White River City has been promoted, he can no longer dream of becoming a mountain king. Starlink isn't the only one participating in the struggle for White River City. I've heard that even King's Return, Blackwater, and Pantheon are here. Let's see how they'll tear Ling Yi to shreds when they gather," Dust Blood said, smiling faintly.
A man's wealth was his own ruin. Even the Bloodbath Family didn't possess such wealth, yet a measly Ling Yi wanted to claim White River City.
"Huh? Quick, look! The Glory Empire's Holy Reincarnation is here as well. Like us, it seems they're here to watch the struggle between superpowers," the youth said, a smile appearing on his face when he noticed the dozen or so players entering the second-floor hall.
Holy Reincarnation was a veteran peak first-rate Guild, and its strength was on par with the Bloodbath Family's. Currently, it was only second to King's Return in the Glory Empire.
While the powers of other kingdoms and empires gathered in White River City and waited for the Auction House contest to begin, Shifeng was forging the Crystal Light Set in one of his Special Forging Rooms in Candlelight, a short distance away from the Auction House.
Although the Ancient Forging Book could allow up to ten players to learn how to forge the Crystal Light Set, it was an eight-piece Dark-Gold Special Equipment Set. Even Master Forgers like A Melancholy Smile and Cream Cocoa had a low success rate. Furthermore, A Melancholy Smile and the others had other items they needed to forge.
Hence, Shifeng decided to forge the Crystal Light Set himself first. Obtaining the necessary materials wasn't a problem.
Ling Yi had grown stronger with each passing day, and the Guild's Warehouse had plenty of materials. In addition, the Guild's business had flourished, and it had joined the Secret Chamber of Commerce. Obtaining the necessary materials was a piece of cake.
In less than an hour, Shi Feng had obtained over a dozen sets of materials.
As Shifeng used Mysterious Flames to refine the materials, and with the Philosopher's Hand's ability, the Crystal Light Set's equipment began to take shape. When the set was about to be completed, Shifeng immediately took out 40 grains of Temporal Sand.
Temporal Sand was incomparably precious. Every grain sold for over 20 Gold on the market. Not only did it increase the production success rate, but it also enhanced the item's effects. Shifeng added five grains of Temporal Sand to each piece of equipment. This was the limit of what Dark-Gold Equipment could withstand.
If not for the Treasure of Time, Shi Feng wouldn't have dared to use Temporal Sand so extravagantly.
