Buy

Cao Bing browsed the forum for quite a while but found nothing worthwhile, so he simply exited the Martial Artist Forum.

"Let's look at martial arts manuals! What should I buy with these free two hundred million?"

Thinking of the two hundred million he had gotten for nothing, Cao Bing could not help smiling happily.

He opened the manuals page, and a vast array of different manuals appeared before him.

World Annihilation. Category: Spear technique. Rating: Ultimate. Price: 100 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 50 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Four-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber. Category: Saber technique. Rating: Ultimate. Price: 100 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 50 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Four-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art. Category: Saber technique. Rating: SS-class. Price: 10 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 5 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

Mist Sword. Category: Sword technique. Rating: S-class. Price: 3 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 1.5 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

The densely packed information made Cao Bing's mouth twitch after he had read only the first few entries.

"Although I already knew this beforehand, seeing these outrageous prices is still hard to accept."

Cao Bing gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"Just now, I thought I was already a wealthy man. Now it seems I'm still dirt poor."

He sighed.

Cao Bing directly ignored the rest of the information. Like Luo Feng, he made his choice.

"Nine Layered Thunder Saber."

This manual pushed speed and strength to their limits. It had also been created by Lei Shen, the second strongest person on Earth.

Of course, there was another manual that suited Cao Bing very well.

"Phantom Saber Art."

To a certain extent, this manual was indeed inferior to Nine Layered Thunder Saber. But compared with Nine Layered Thunder Saber's pure focus on strength and speed—

This manual also emphasized variations in saber techniques. Once mastered, its saber arts could shift unpredictably like phantoms.

It was just that, compared with Nine Layered Thunder Saber, Phantom Saber Art was somewhat inferior in its amplification of strength.

Overall, each had its own strengths and weaknesses.

"Let's look at Nine Layered Thunder Saber first. If I have anything left afterward, I can look at Phantom Saber Art too. But isn't this a little too greedy? Nine Layered Thunder Saber is already the hardest saber art in the world to practice, and if I try to balance it with Phantom Saber Art, I might end up accomplishing nothing!"

Cao Bing laughed bitterly at himself, then opened Nine Layered Thunder Saber's price list first.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, all nine layers. Price: 100 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 50 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Four-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first eight layers. Price: 50 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 25 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first five layers. Price: 2 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 1 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first four layers. Price: 500 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 250 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Two-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first three layers. Price: 200 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 100 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Two-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first two layers. Price: 100 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 50 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Two-star contribution points.

Nine Layered Thunder Saber, first layer. Price: 50 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 25 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: One-star contribution points.

"These prices are forcing me to look at Phantom Saber Art first. Even the first five layers cost a billion at half price."

With that thought, he opened Phantom Saber Art's price list as well.

Phantom Saber Art, all seven layers. Price: 10 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 5 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first six layers. Price: 3 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 1.5 billion Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Three-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first five layers. Price: 1.8 billion Huaxia dollars at full price, 900 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Two-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first four layers. Price: 400 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 200 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: Two-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first three layers. Price: 200 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 100 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: One-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first two layers. Price: 100 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 50 million Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: One-star contribution points.

Phantom Saber Art, first layer. Price: 70 million Huaxia dollars at full price, 3,500 Huaxia dollars at half price. Requirement: 6,000 contribution points.

"It seems I can't afford the first five layers of either Nine Layered Thunder Saber or Phantom Saber Art by themselves." Cao Bing could not help smiling bitterly. "Looks like I'm still poor!"

"But that works too. I'll buy the first four layers of both Nine Layered Thunder Saber and Phantom Saber Art. That comes to 450 million Huaxia dollars. After deducting the free two hundred million, I'll have to pay another two hundred million myself."

"As for the remaining money... there's no need to save it. I'll buy the best battle sabers and the best armor!"

A sharp gleam surged in Cao Bing's eyes.

"Only with good equipment can I live better. As for the money, I'll earn it back soon enough!"

With that thought, Cao Bing opened the equipment page again.

"I'll buy two sabers: one Blood Shadow 2 A6 Model and one Phantom Series A6 Model. They'll cost ten million each at half price. Although the A5 models are still a little difficult for me to handle with my current strength, after training for a while longer, I'll be able to use them properly!"

"I don't need a shield or anything like that. Based on my fighting style, a shield would only affect my performance. Two hundred thousand is enough for a backpack. That means the big expense left is the Combat Suit."

Cao Bing's eyes burned as he quickly bought the weapons and backpack, then turned his attention to the various Combat Suits.

SS-class Combat Suit. Full price: 120 billion. Half price: 60 billion. Four-star contribution points.

S-class Combat Suit. Full price: 12 billion. Half price: 6 billion. Three-star contribution points.

Tiger Fury Series A9-class Combat Suit. Full price: 2.4 billion. Half price: 1.2 billion. Two-star contribution points.

Battle Wind Series A8-class Combat Suit. Full price: 1.2 billion. Half price: 600 million. Two-star contribution points.

Night Series A7-class Combat Suit. Full price: 300 million. Half price: 150 million. Two-star contribution points.

Wraith Series B6-class Combat Suit. Full price: 80 million. Half price: 40 million. One-star contribution points.

There were also all kinds of Combat Suit components.

"So expensive! A Combat Suit of the same grade costs enough to buy more than five battle sabers of that grade!"

Cao Bing smacked his lips twice and thought to himself, but no matter how expensive it was, he had to buy one—and a good one at that. This was something that concerned his life!

"Night A7, 150 million!"

In the end, Cao Bing gritted his teeth and directly placed an order for a high-grade Combat Suit.

"I finally understand what it means to spend money like water! Even across three lifetimes, I probably haven't spent as much as I did today!"

The first four layers of both Nine Layered Thunder Saber and Phantom Saber Art cost 450 million in total. Two hundred million of that was free, while he paid 250 million himself.

The two A6-class battle sabers cost 20 million in total.

One Combat Suit cost 150 million.

Altogether, Cao Bing had spent a full 420 million.

In an instant, his total assets had been reduced to a little over 110 million, shrinking by nearly eighty percent!

And even so, Cao Bing had no intention of saving that money. Before becoming a Martial Artist, he had not been qualified to use Limitless Martial Arts' special training rooms. Now that he had the status and enough contribution points, he naturally would not be stingy with himself.

After buying everything, Cao Bing finally let out a long breath and lay flat on his bed.

However, at that moment, someone knocked on the door outside.
