There were plenty of people who sold martial art manuals in the market, but there were very few who sold high-tier martial art manuals. They were as rare as thousand-year-old ginseng.
When a high-tier martial art manual appeared, it was bound to attract countless powerful players to buy it.
The stall in front of them had three high-tier martial art manuals on display in one go, so it was only natural that many players paid attention to it!
But …
The high price of two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver crumbled the bottom line of many people's hearts.
Not everyone could have ten thousand taels of silver crumbs in their bank accounts. It was already very difficult for them to have five digits in their bank accounts. Those who were better off would rarely have more than one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs in their bank accounts. Only those who had decent strength in guilds could gather a large amount of silver crumbs in their bank accounts or through other methods.
But …
Based on the fluctuating exchange rate, two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver crumbs was equivalent to around thirteen thousand RMB. Normal guilds would not be able to buy it without batting an eyelid.
Raise the price on the spot, and return the price on the spot!
This was a principle that had existed since ancient times.
Many people surrounded the stall and started a fierce war of words. They were all talking about the various flaws of high-tier martial arts!
Some said that staff techniques were not easy to learn, some said that axe techniques were not very popular, and some even said that the damage of Stormy Shadowless Kick was too low. Its damage at Grandmaster Realm was only at the third realm of a normal high-tier saber technique. It did not fit into the category of high-tier martial arts, and they could accept it if it was lowered to one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs.
Happy's heart raced as he listened to them from outside. He held back his laughter.
'There's no need for them to be so ridiculous, is there?'
Shadowless Kick and Stormy Shadowless Kick were very popular martial arts during the later stages of the game in Happy's previous life. They relied on their super high attack speed to level up and kill monsters! They did not lose to them in battles either. They countered many slow and medium high-tier martial arts!
Regardless of whether it was a high-tier or low-tier martial art, they were basically priceless. In the later stages of the game, even a low-tier martial art, Shadowless Kick, was sold for fifty thousand taels of silver crumbs. Stormy Shadowless Kick was even sold for one hundred thousand RMB.
Such a supreme-grade high-tier martial art had actually been devalued to such an extent and even said that it would be sold for one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs. Happy felt that if he was the seller … Oh well, he would not sell it.
"…"
Fortunately, the seller was a person with a good temper. He picked up a green of foxtail and dug at his ear in a leisurely manner. He looked as if he could hear the players around him belittling him.
"The market price is only two hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs. Brother, aren't you a little too much? Otherwise! For two hundred thousand taels, I'll take one! "
As time passed, the number of onlookers increased. The seller's unwavering stance made the previous batch of onlookers faintly feel uneasy.
They were clearly the type of people who did not have high-tier martial arts, and they did not have the courage to endure the pain and obtain high-tier martial art manuals. When they saw that there were more people competing for them, they naturally became a little worried about their gains and losses.
"Two hundred and ten thousand, brother, that's all I have …"
"…"
The seller was very opinionated. He tilted his head to the side and looked at the sky while carefully and attentively picking his ears.
As time passed, the surrounding people also compromised. Naturally, the price rose with the tide, nearing 250,000!
Just when a few people in the crowd were about to clench their teeth and make their decision, a voice suddenly rose from the back of the crowd. "Don't bother. I'll buy all of these martial art manuals for seven hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!" With just one sentence, the faces of the people who made the bid turned pale.
The seller's leisurely hand trembled slightly. With a pained expression, he hurriedly took out the green foxtail grass. It seemed that he used too much force and almost pricked his eardrums.
Seven hundred and fifty thousand!
Aside from the people on the Rich Rank, who else could afford it?
The crowd automatically parted to form a path. Happy, who had already changed his clothes, walked to the stall under countless heated gazes. His blue robes dazzled many people's eyes.
"It's him!"
Many people immediately recognized him. He was the Blue-robed Noble Sword User who had caused a commotion in Zhengzhou and Mount Song. He was the famous tycoon who had killed hundreds of people multiple times and managed to escape unscathed.
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand?"
The seller calmed down a little and snapped out of his shock at Happy's arrival. He asked another question in an uncertain tone.
"I'm sure."
Happy sent a trade request without hesitation.
The seller sucked in a light breath and did not dare to be negligent. He quickly packed up his stall and placed all the martial art manuals on the table. When he saw the data on the stack of silver notes placed on the table, a zealous look shone in his eyes.
The players by the side were dumbfounded, and they began discussing among themselves.
"Why did he buy so many high-tier martial art manuals in one go?"
"That's right!"
"I heard that it takes a month to master one. If he bought so many, could it be that the value of the martial art manuals will depreciate?"
"What do you know? If you carry too much money on you, you'll be killed sooner or later! Don't flaunt your wealth, understand? It's only been one day since the Rich Rank appeared, and many people have already died. "
"Ah …"
"But there's no need for him to be so wasteful, right? He can spend his money elsewhere." Some people still did not understand.
There was no lack of people in the crowd who tried to explain.
"You don't understand, right?"
"This brat spent seven hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver in one go to buy three high-tier martial art manuals. This will definitely cause a commotion in Luoyang. At that time, once the public spreads this news, everyone will know that Happy spent his money. If he doesn't have enough money on him, who will be so bored as to continue chasing after him?"
"Makes sense!"
The group of people agreed with him deeply.
However, they definitely did not know Happy's true thoughts.
Spending money to fall out of the Rich Rank was naturally his main mission.
But he was not that extravagant and wasteful!
Forget about the value of Stormy Shadowless Kick, Happy also needed to buy the other martial art manuals to learn. After all, the quest from the Murong Clan was still on him.
One of the reasons why he bought the martial art manuals was because they were worth the price, and he needed them. Another reason was that the high-tier martial art manuals would not fall out of his hands for a period of time. In fact, there was even a possibility that they would retain their value and increase in value.
If it really did not work out, he could just sell them to the students from Beautiful Robes Faction!
Once Happy completed the trade, he learned all the low-tier martial art manuals and put them away. Then, he left the place of the incident without stopping.
A few groups of people who had rushed over after hearing the news looked at each other at a loss behind the group.
One of them held a thin booklet in his hands, and there was a resigned expression on his face.
Even though Happy had risen by one rank on the Famous People Rank, he had completely fallen out of the Rich Rank. More than half of his one million and two hundred thousand taels of silver had been deducted, and it was no longer enough for him to be listed on the Rich Rank.
"What a cunning brat!" The group of people gritted their teeth and asked, "What should we do now? We've been chasing after him for a long time! "
The man with World of Martial Arts Secret News Log smiled wanly and said in resignation, "What else can we do? That brat might use up all his money. If we continue chasing after him, our losses will be even greater! Cancel the quest! "
Many factions of power had always paid close attention to the Rich Rank. Every single change in the name would affect many people's hearts. This time, the matter of Happy resolutely removing his name from the Rich Rank was soon known by everyone, and more people began to use this method.
Within a short period of time, a new change happened to the Rich Rank!
Those who continued to stay on the Rich Rank were practically all the leaders of large guilds with great backgrounds and power.
"Wealth equals status!"
At that moment, it showed up in World of Martial Arts!
