Li Ye took a breath. Originally, when he came out this time, all he wanted to do was choose a relatively good high-quality long sword, but he didn't expect to encounter a low-grade yellow-level sword!
"Shopkeeper, what's the price of this sword?"
Suppressing the surprise and excitement in his heart, Li Ye looked calm on the surface and did not reveal his fiery gaze.
"Twenty-two thousand gold coins!"
Twenty-two thousand?! When Li Ye heard this, he immediately shook his head secretly and said secretly, "Sure enough, compared to ordinary weapons and high-quality weapons, the price of advanced weapons is simply beyond the reach of ordinary people."
In Yunteng Continent, one hundred gold coins is enough for a family of three to live a well-off life for a year. Even many smaller families cannot afford ten thousand gold coins easily! The price of twenty-two gold coins can be purchased without frowning even in Wuzhou City.
, there are definitely not many who pay directly!
Seeing Li Ye's silence, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and said, "Of course, if you really like it, Master, the price can be even cheaper, 20,000 gold coins!"
Twenty thousand gold coins? Li Ye smiled bitterly and shook his head. He couldn't even take out two thousand gold coins, let alone twenty thousand gold coins.
As one of the three major families in Wuzhou City, the Li family's treatment for inner disciples is certainly good, especially if he ranks among the top ten inner disciples, the family will provide living expenses of one thousand gold coins every month.
However, martial arts cultivators usually have a lot of expenses, and he just joined the ranks of inner disciples this month, so he doesn't have any money on hand.
After silently calculating the gold coins on hand, Li Ye found that it was less than one thousand. This was a one-time reward from the family after he became an inner disciple.
"It seems that this Qingfeng Sword has no chance with me."
Then he stopped looking and turned to look at others. In this small room, there was not only such a long sword, there were also many weapons hanging on the wall.
Among them, Li Ye saw a set of throwing knives, his eyes lit up and he walked over.
If you look carefully, you will see that it is a set of six flying knives. Each flying knife is small and exquisite, with a slight cold glow.
At first glance, Li Ye immediately liked it, "Although I can't afford a flying sword, this kind of flying knife is more powerful when it is controlled by sword control to kill enemies suddenly!"
The shopkeeper over there was a little surprised when he saw Li Ye walking away, but he continued the introduction without any expression on his face.
"Young master, your vision is indeed unique. This set of flying knives is also made by Master Iron. Although it has not yet entered the advanced level, it is still the best among the best! It has even added some century-old cold iron, so there is no doubt about its sharpness.
When encountering an ordinary soldier, it will cut through iron like clay. Even if it encounters an ordinary high-quality weapon, it will break easily!"
After saying this, the shopkeeper took out an ordinary weapon from one side, then took off a throwing knife and slashed lightly. There was no obstacle and it was cut off instantly!
"So sharp!"
Li Ye couldn't help but be moved!
In Yunteng Continent, the difference between ordinary weapons and high-quality weapons is actually only in the craftsmanship of the builder, and the essential difference is not big. Only advanced weapons can be as sharp as cutting iron through mud.
"Although this flying knife is not high-grade, its sharpness is no different from ordinary low-grade yellow-grade weapons!"
For Li Ye, who wants to use his sword skills to control and kill enemies, cutting iron like clay is what he values the most!
Before Li Ye could ask about the price, the shopkeeper over there was already talking eloquently, "Although this set of flying knives is not an entry-level weapon, it is not much worse than an entry-level weapon, and because of the addition of century-old cold iron,
Because of the relationship, the price is also ten thousand and five gold coins per set!"
Ten thousand and five gold coins! Li Ye really didn't know whether he should praise his sharp vision or his bad luck.
He had his eye on two weapons, but they were both so expensive that he couldn't afford them at all.
Shaking his head, Li Ye looked away helplessly, then glanced at the room, and immediately understood that it would be very difficult to find weapons that he could bear here.
"The weapons here are at least high-quality goods. It seems that with my current worth, it is difficult to buy them."
However, Li Ye disdained ordinary weapons. Ordinary soldiers or even high-quality weapons could not reflect the power of sword control at all, and would even affect it.
The shopkeeper's eyes were so vicious, and he immediately saw that the young man with extraordinary temperament in front of him was short of money.
If it were normal times, he would definitely show disdain and even sneer. But it was different today. For some reason, he looked at the young man in front of him a little unusual. And he was not stupid either. Although Li Ye was wearing ordinary clothes,
The clothes are cheap, but the temperament is definitely not something ordinary people can possess.
"Looking at his temperament, he looks like he belongs to a big family."
Of course, even if you are a child of a big family, unless you are the top one, it is impossible for ordinary people to afford high-quality weapons.
In the end, Li Ye chose an ordinary high-quality long sword, which was also made of hundreds of refined steel, which made Li Ye quite satisfied. After paying three hundred gold coins, Li Ye returned to the Li family.
"It seems that what I thought before was too simple. No wonder those martial arts practitioners seem to be extremely poor. It is really easy to spend this money."
Unfortunately, as Li Ye is currently the seventh inner disciple, he can get one thousand gold coins from his family every month, and he has to bear the rest of the expenses himself.
Of course, he could also choose to go out and take on some tasks to make money like those mercenary adventurers, but Li Ye immediately shook his head and rejected this idea.
Because generally those tasks that can be solved alone and are easy usually pay very little, while those that pay a lot usually require a lot of people to form a team and even cause casualties, and the time drags on for a long time. It is completely impossible for him to complete it before the Genius Summit.
.
On the next day, Li Ye began to become familiar with the sword control technique to control the long sword. It was not smooth at first. Although he could move objects through the air, it always failed to meet the requirements he expected.
But soon, Li Ye was able to use his mental power to control the sword in his hand to fly around flexibly.
"Now my maximum control distance is ten meters. Beyond this distance, the mental energy consumption will increase exponentially, and the control accuracy will also decrease, and the power will be insufficient."
After many experiments, Li Ye discovered that with his current strength, controlling a flying sword within ten meters is the most powerful!
Wow! A cold light flashed across, and then a piece of hard granite seven or eight meters away was pierced through!
"This kind of power can kill even a martial arts master-level expert if he is unprepared! At least he will be seriously injured!"
Li Ye is very satisfied with this effect. Now, his own strength is not much weaker than that of the martial arts master. Coupled with the mental power illusion impact of Xue Tong and the sword control skills in his hands at this moment, ordinary martial arts masters have no way to deal with him!
"But it's still a little difficult to threaten a strong man at the level of a martial arts master!"
He knows very well that some of the most talented people in Wuzhou City can be seen from Li Mo. They are definitely perverts who have entered the ranks of martial arts masters! With his current strength, he can fight without any reservations.
Against a strong man like a martial arts master at the ninth level of spiritual martial arts, the chance of winning is less than 50%!
"Unfortunately, if it were that set of flying knives or that Qingfeng sword, even a martial arts master would have at least a 40-50% chance of killing him with his sword control skills!"
Shaking his head, Li Ye didn't think about it for the time being.
"Now, in terms of my body skills, there is a lot of room for improvement in the Mizunbu. My boxing skills include the Frost Fist, and my kicking skills include the Wind Kick. However, my Cloud Turning Palm needs some study."
If anyone knew that Li Ye had learned so many combat skills by himself, they would definitely laugh at him. Martial arts practitioners have limited energy, so instead of learning too many complex techniques, it is better to specialize in one of them!
Even the geniuses in the family, like Li Xuan, have only mastered one yellow-level high-level combat skill, and at most know a few ordinary yellow-level mid-level combat skills.
Like Li Ye, who learned three yellow-level high-level combat skills and one yellow-level high-level body skill in one go, plus a book on sword control of unknown levels, he was either an arrogant lunatic or a peerless genius!
It's hard to say whether Li Ye is a madman or a genius, but under the eyes of the Blood Eye, Li Ye can learn even high-level yellow-level combat skills in one go!
"Cloud Palm!"
Boom! A wave of palm force blasted out directly, and suddenly a tree not far away that could only be surrounded by one person cracked and fell into pieces.
"It's more powerful than Frost Fist and Wind Kick!"
Li Ye secretly analyzed that among the three combat skills he had learned, Gust Kick was the most ethereal, fastest and had the largest range but lacked power. Frost Fist was quite satisfactory and had moderate power, but it brought a strong chill that interfered with the opponent's movements.
But the current Cloud-turning Palm is the most powerful, with one palm strike and a row of palm strikes, mainly for attack power.
It took two days for Li Ye to directly practice all three combat skills to the level of Xiaocheng. Combat skills and body skills are generally divided into beginner, Xiaocheng, Dacheng, mastery and perfection. Generally, Xiaocheng can make martial arts more powerful.
The cultivator can exert about 30% to 40% of the power of the combat skill itself, and it usually takes several months or even more than several years of practice to reach this level.
People like Li Ye, who get started immediately after just one look and become successful in just two days, are called monsters! Unfortunately, Li Ye doesn't know much about it and thinks this is a normal phenomenon.
Swish, swish, swish!
Only a continuous sound was heard, and the entire courtyard was filled with seven or eight afterimage clones.
"Muzongbu is indeed a fragment of the earth-level movement technique. Although it is a fragment, it is far superior to ordinary yellow-level high-level movements!"
For some reason, Li Ye's practice of Muzongbu was extremely smooth. He reached the Xiaocheng realm in less than a day, and then directly entered the Dacheng realm!
Now, Li Ye's full exertion is enough to create more than ten clones in an instant, and each clone is more real and confusing than the one Li Wei used at the beginning.
In the past few days, Li Yating and Xiao Qing had left after saying goodbye.
At the same time, the date of the Genius Summit is getting closer and closer. All major families in Wuzhou City and some casual cultivators are gearing up to show off their talents at the Genius Summit!
Just the day before the Genius Summit, something unexpected happened!
