Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When the students returned to the classroom, the class teacher brought over a huge stack of new books to distribute — Introduction to Ordinary Clones, Application of Basic Steps, Template…
After the books were distributed, it meant that class was over. From tomorrow onward, the real learning would commence!
Many students expressed that they wanted to go home to find their parents for comfort. The experience of dying in the dungeon today was too terrifying.
Lin Xuan did not mind. He was an orphan. He grew up in an orphanage and had officially moved out of the orphanage after graduating from junior high school. Now, he was living in a resettlement room provided by the government. Although the room was not big, it was free, it was also close to his school.
However, he recalled that he earned a card today. He could buy it and exchange it for money. Yes, there was also that useless Lucky Coin.
As soon as the homeroom teacher said that class was over, Lin Xuan had already slipped out. He had a lot of things to do now. Other than selling the cards, the second skill of the Template Card was activated, he needed to kill more moonsters to activate the skill.
Li Zifei wanted to chat with Lin Xuan after class, but she didn’t expect him to disappear right after class.
It was Lin Xuan’s first time in Dongning City’s Ability User Guild City.
This place was grand and wide, occupying a large area. People came and went wearing beautiful clothes. In the past, before he earned his Template Card, Lin Xuan dared not to approach such a place. He would stay far away from it, however, he would always try to sneak a look inside, longing to experience the feeling they had inside.
He studied hard so that he could enter senior high school. In this world, the college entrance examination didn’t exist. The entrance examination was the only time for him to be able to make a name for himself. As the first day of senior high school was the day of awakening, he had to be present or else he would miss his opportunity in becoming a big shot!
Now, he finally qualified to enter this city!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Ability Guild User City had branches in all the urban areas of Taixia Country. Each branch would have three buildings, the treasure building for ability users to trade items, the cultivation building for ability users to cultivate their skills, and the dungeon building for ability users to challenge dungeons.
The building was immaculate. It was almost 100 meters high and about 30 storeys tall. It covered almost 1,000 acres of land. However, it was just a building. There were 3 such buildings in each city, it just so happened to form a triangle.
......
Each building had its own entrace. Lin Xuan entered the treasures building.
“ID please.”
Lin Xuan was stunned. An ID? Where should he get an ID? After thinking for a moment, he took out the Dongning School’s student card that he had just gotten today.
The guard at the door was stunned. It was a high school student card. This could be considered an ID, but sometimes they could be easily faked. So, he hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, “Do you have any other documents or items that can prove your identity of being an ability user?”
“Uh, do you think this will work?”
Lin Xuan took out a card and turned it into an Emblem. Yes, it was the useless Emblem of the Wilderness Graveyard.
“Yes, sir. Please go ahead.”
The burly man moved aside and invited Lin Xuan in. It was not because the Emblem was useful, but because of the method of turning the card into a physical object to prove that he was an ability user.
The treasure building was very big. People who came here for the first time might not be able to find their way around. Therefore, the rich and powerful ability users directly hired many ordinary people to serve the ability users who came for the first time.
“Hello, how many I help you?”
A beautiful woman in a tight black suit appeared in front of Lin Xuan. She received a notice from the burly man at the door and was the service staff who came to receive Lin Xuan.
“Hello, I would like to sell my card. May I know the procedure in doing so?”
After knowing her intention, Lin Xuan immediately asked.
“This way, please. May I know what type of card you wish to sell? Ordinary cards can be sold directly on the first floor. The guild has a specialized card recycling shop. Of course, you can also choose other shops. If the cards are more rare, you can go to the second floor and get a professional appraiser to give you a fair price. If you are not satisfied with the price given by the appraiser, you can also go to the third floor. There are three auction houses there.”
Lin Xuan nodded. Although the Magic Rune Card was a yellow rank card, as the supply was less than the demand, he should go to the seller’s market. It could be considered a precious card. He could go to the second floor to ask about the price first.
“I’d like to go to the second floor.”
“This way, please.”
There were many people on the first floor, and there were also many people on the second floor. There were hundreds of shops here, all of which were hired by the appraisers of the Ability Guild User City. Lin Xuan randomly found an empty seat and sat down.
“Hello, sir. How many I help you today?”
“Take a look at what I got. How much is this card worth now?”
Lin Xuan pushed the card in front of the appraiser, and the appraiser’s eyes flashed. This guy had come to make a big deal.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s a magic Rune Card thats high level yellow ranked. It is one of the most popular yellow rank magic pattern cards on the market. The market price is two million. If you are interested in selling it, the premium can be negotiated at 50%.”
Three million?! He could still continue to negotiate!
Lin Xuan let out a light breath. He really did not expect this price. Initially, he thought that two million would be more than enough. However, since he could negotiate, then he would test his luck.
“Seems like you know your stuff.”
The appraiser on the other side smiled, straightened his body and said seriously, “It’s like this. I have a friend here who has been collecting magic rune cards for a long time. If you really want to sell it, you can contact him. This is his contact information.”
Lin Xuan blinked his eyes and immediately understood what he meant. The appraiser replied on the huge customer base of the ability user guild, and established his own connections within the legal scope to become a card broker. Impressive.
He smiled and picked up the contact information. As for what kind of transactions they had in private, he did not want to know. It did not matter as long as his cards could be sold at a high price.
After contacting the other party, the other party hurriedly rushed over. In the end, the transaction of three point four million was successful.
Two million was the legal price, three million was the market price, and the additional 400,000 was the sincere price that Lin Xuan chose to trade with him. It saved him the trouble of competing with the other kryptonite warriors on the same stage.
Looking at the notification on his phone that showed the successful transfer of the money, Lin Xuan secretly sighed. Ability users really make a lot of f*cking money.
His guide watched this scene from the side with a smile. She was not surprised at all, because she was also part of this profit chain.
When they reached the first floor, he casually sold the Lucky coin to the guild’s recycling shop and earned some money off it. This price made Lin Xuan shake his head, compared to what he earned just now, this was nothing!
Following the tour guide around the three buildings, Lin Xuan invited her to have lunch at the gourmet restaurant in the middle of the three buildings as a way to thank her for showing him around. However, this meal cost nearly 500 dollars, which made Lin Xuan’s heart ache.
Next, it was time to spend no personal things.
Lin Xuan went straight to the fourth floor of the treasure building. That was where all kinds of edible parts of wild monsters could be bought.
For ability users, ordinary food could no longer fill their stomachs. Only by eating the meat of wild monsters and the spirit fruits that contained energy could they maintain their survival and even help with their cultivation!
