Verbal Sparring

Just as the two sides were facing off, another group of players, having heard the news, rushed over from a distance. One of them said in an arrogant tone, "Someone's selling equipment? I knew this game would have poor people selling equipment for money. Yuwei, Lan Yu, this time I'll buy all the equipment, no matter how much it costs, and get you both some good gear."

The group that arrived was none other than Xia Yuwei and her party, who had just returned from leveling in Rocky Cave. The one who spoke those words was none other than Zheng Yuan, with his "mysterious confidence."

Neither Xia Yuwei nor Lan Yu paid any attention to Zheng Yuan. Looking at the crowd gathered in front, Xia Yuwei said anxiously, "Xiong Ba Fengyun and Old Twilight are here. I'm afraid we can't compete with them."

"What?" Hearing those two names, Zheng Yuan immediately went silent. Compared to those two sharks in the business world, the Zheng family was just a shrimp. They wouldn't even look at him.

"Maybe we should just forget it. We can't afford to offend those two," Zheng Yuan said.

Zhang Zibo frowned and said, "Let's try. After all, we're going to raid the level 3 dungeon. It'll be difficult without equipment."

Xia Yuwei bit her lip and said, "What's there to be afraid of? It's just a game."

"But..." Zheng Yuan was still afraid and said, "Maybe we should just give up."

"If you're afraid, stay here. I'll go myself," Xia Yuwei said decisively.

In order to level up quickly, Xia Yuwei decided to try, even if it meant confronting Old Twilight and Xiong Ba Fengyun head-on.

"We'll go with you," Lan Yu said, her beautiful eyes also showing a firm gaze.

Xia Yuwei nodded and led the team to the center of the area. She was about to ask about the price of the equipment when she saw that the seller was Lu Yang. Xia Yuwei and her group were stunned.

"Ah? It's you," Lan Yu said, her bright eyes filled with curiosity.

Lu Yang smiled at Lan Yu and mimicked her tone, saying, "Ah, why can't it be me?"

Lan Yu blinked her eyes, realizing that what was happening seemed quite reasonable. The number one player on the Level Rankings, wasn't it normal for him to get so much good equipment?

"That's true," Lan Yu said.

Xia Yuwei walked up to Lu Yang and said, "Thank you for providing us with the leveling spot. Frost Ice Studio will remember this. If you need any help in the future, we will do our best to assist."

Lu Yang didn't like Xia Yuwei's condescending tone and said, "Helping you was just a small favor. You don't have to be so polite."

"Then can you sell the equipment to me?" Xia Yuwei followed up immediately.

"Little girl, wait a moment," Old Twilight and Xiong Ba said in unison.

"Doing things requires a sense of priority. How can this little girl be so disrespectful to the elderly?" Old Twilight said lightly.

"Little girl, I've already bought this stuff. Go somewhere else," Xiong Ba said arrogantly.

As soon as they finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The subordinates of Old Twilight and Xiong Ba all looked at Xia Yuwei and her party with unfriendly eyes.

The surrounding players were nervous at the sight of this.

"Are they going to fight?"

"No way, this is a safe zone, but Frost Ice Studio is going to be in trouble."

"They'll probably be ambushed as soon as they leave the safe zone."

"The two major guilds have a combined force of sixty to seventy thousand players. It's terrifying."

Listening to the words of the people around them, Xiong Ba and Old Twilight were very satisfied. Just as they thought Xia Yuwei would be intimidated by them, a smile appeared on Xia Yuwei's face.

"Old Twilight and Xiong Ba, you two are bullying people, bullying a little girl like me," Xia Yuwei said, pointing at them without blushing or skipping a beat.

Xiong Ba: "..."

Old Twilight: "..."

"Is the world changing so much now? Little girls are so eloquent," Old Twilight said, feeling a bit ashamed. If Xia Yuwei reasoned with him, Old Twilight could talk to her for eight hours without repeating himself. A natural master of oration, he could survive three bankruptcies. This experience was not something ordinary people could go through.

Xiong Ba was no slouch either. He came from a poor family and single-handedly built a listed company with a market value of hundreds of billions. This kind of pressure was not something ordinary people could withstand.

However, Xia Yuwei withstood it and even acted spoiled and unreasonable in front of them, leaving them at a loss. Lu Yang couldn't help but praise her cleverness.

In his previous life, a painter depicted a scene of domestic guild leaders leading their players in a battle of hundreds of nations in the World Domination War. Among them, sixteen guild leaders appeared in this painting, including Xiong Ba, Old Twilight, and Xia Yuwei.

Looking at the scene where the three of them were exchanging fiery glances, Lu Yang felt a surge of pride.

I didn't have the chance to participate in my previous life. In this life, whether you are a local tyrant or a peerless beauty, you will all submit to me, Lu Yang.

"Okay, don't argue. I don't care what your relationship is. The equipment is here with me. Whether I sell it to you or whether you can afford it is not up to you. It's up to me," Lu Yang said.

Xia Yuwei, Old Twilight, and Xiong Ba simultaneously turned their attention to Lu Yang and asked in unison, "How are you going to sell it?"

Lu Yang said, "I won't change the price. You can bid. The highest bidder wins."

Ox-Horn Dagger: 2 Gold Coins, Black Iron Helmet: 3 Gold Coins, Two-Handed Greatsword: 10 Gold Coins, Wild Bee Longbow: 10 Gold Coins, Young Dragon Shield: 20 Gold Coins...

The three of them were speechless as they looked at Lu Yang. If they had so many Gold Coins, they would have bought all the equipment already. Why would they be standing here staring at each other?

The cunning fox Old Twilight said with a kind face, "Little brother, your price is too high. We can't afford it. How about you lower the price and we become friends?"

Xiong Ba also frowned and said, "Brother, we really can't collect that many Gold Coins right now. How about we trade with other items?"

Lu Yang was waiting for these words. He knew that everyone couldn't afford such high prices, so he deliberately let everyone think of using other items to trade.

Why did Lu Yang do this? Because he had the Demon God's Heart. Upgrading this item required unlocking the reputation of other races, and unlocking the reputation task required many rare materials.

If Lu Yang did it himself, by the time he collected these things, everyone else would be level 15, so Lu Yang could only adopt this method.

Lu Yang said, "Since you bosses are so sincere, okay, I completely agree. This is a new list of items. Whoever can provide me with these materials first, I will sell the items to."
