Chapter 769: Selling Materials! 1.5 Billion Blue Star Coins!
"Hoo, hoo..."
On the training ground, Leng Yuexi was gasping for breath, her full chest heaving violently up and down along with her.
Logically speaking, as a seventh-rank Grandmaster, she shouldn't be this exhausted.
But Xu Jingming's pressure was simply too overwhelming, and his physique was even more ferocious.
Every one of her sword strikes was either directly dodged by Xu Jingming,
or blocked with his long spear.
Her own hands had gone numb from the rebound force, yet Xu Jingming on the other side wasn't even bothered in the slightest!
"Do you want to continue?"
Swish—
The molten-scoril obsidian spear wreathed in golden Lei Ting was recalled, and Xu Jingming asked with a smile.
The intensity of the fight just now could only be counted as warm-up level.
But purely in terms of combat technique, among the many opponents he had faced, Leng Yuexi could be considered quite the capable one.
"No more fighting, I can't win."
Having recovered a little of her strength, Leng Yuexi lightly bit her red lip with pearly teeth and said with a hint of grievance:
"You fellow, you said you'd crush me one-handed, and you really didn't use your second hand the entire time."
"I'm a man of my word." Xu Jingming said with a smile.
In reality, once he went all-out with Doushen Shenlei,
he wouldn't even need one hand — just ranged spell bombardment would be enough to defeat Leng Yuexi.
"But the stronger you are, the better it is for us."
Leng Yuexi let out a light breath, an unusual gleam flickering in her beautiful eyes:
"There are five matches in total, and yours looks like a sure win."
Fwoosh—
Purple flames rose up, instantly drying Leng Yuexi's slightly sweat-dampened skin once more.
"Phew, that's much better."
"Fighting you makes me sweat more than a sauna session."
Leng Yuexi stretched lazily, then continued: "So you're heading back to the wilderness next?"
"Mm, I'll come back a few days before the match."
Xu Jingming stored his long spear back into his spatial ring and nodded.
"It's still night now. If you go into the wilderness now, it's far too dangerous. Better wait until tomorrow morning after sunrise."
Leng Yuexi couldn't help but suggest.
Xu Jingming thought it over.
True enough — at night he couldn't use his lightning-type abilities.
The efficiency of killing fierce beasts was just too low; better to go tomorrow, so he nodded:
"Sure. By the way, Sister Xi, does your Spirit Fox Guild take fierce beast materials?"
"Of course we do. What fierce beast materials do you have?"
Learning that Xu Jingming wouldn't be leaving tonight, Leng Yuexi was visibly happier, the corners of her red lips curving up slightly.
"Just these."
Swish—
A faint flash of light from the spatial ring, and instantly a small mountain of materials was piled up beside Xu Jingming.
The smell of blood permeated the air, and the most conspicuous among them was the corpse of that eighth-rank Lei Jiao Heihou King.
Although already dead, Lei Guang still flickered on its thunder-horn.
The flesh and blood of the corpse emanated an obviously distinct pressure.
"So many fierce beast materials, and there seems to be an eighth-rank fierce beast among them?" Leng Yuexi was somewhat surprised.
"Mm, plus four seventh-rank fierce beasts, and the rest are all sixth- and fifth-rank fierce beast materials."
Xu Jingming nodded in reply.
Leng Yuexi glanced at the Lei Jiao Heihou King's corpse — its skull pierced through, its body scorched black — and marveled inwardly.
To kill an eighth-rank fierce beast in a single strike — Xu Jingming was clearly far more powerful than she had imagined.
"Wait a moment, I'll call someone right away to tally the materials and give you a price."
Leng Yuexi took out her phone and dialed a number.
In no time, a team of staff arrived at the training ground.
When they saw this mountain-like pile of fierce beast materials, the supervisor leading them was momentarily stunned.
When he saw the Lei Jiao Heihou King among them, he was utterly shocked.
When did the Young Lady become this strong? She can even easily kill a lightning-attribute eighth-rank fierce beast?
"I didn't kill these. Tally them up and give me an estimate."
Seeming to read the supervisor's thoughts, Leng Yuexi explained.
After a pause, she added: "Use the highest standard for the estimate."
The Spirit Fox Guild had different appraisal standards for different clients.
Only core members like her could enjoy the highest appraisal standard.
"Yes!" The supervisor hurriedly nodded, not daring to show the slightest negligence.
He had brought six people in total, but even so, it took nearly twenty-plus minutes to finish the tally.
This was already considered fast; if it were an ordinary ability user, just identifying these fierce beast materials alone would take quite a bit of time.
It was only because these belonged to the Young Lady that they hadn't examined them carefully.
"Inside there's a complete eighth-rank lower-tier Lei Jiao Heihou corpse, as well as four seventh-rank fierce beasts.
"Along with over twenty fifth-rank and sixth-rank fierce beast materials, estimated at 1.5 billion Blue Star coins."
The supervisor said respectfully.
"How about it, this price isn't bad, right?" Leng Yuexi asked softly.
"It's fine." Xu Jingming gave a slight nod.
By his own estimate, getting 1.4 billion Blue Star coins would have been about right.
This was clearly a serious overprice, and only because of Leng Yuexi.
"Good, then let's go with this price."
Leng Yuexi waved her hand, and several staff members immediately gathered all the fierce beast materials into spatial rings, then turned and left respectfully.
A single spatial ring clearly couldn't hold this many fierce beast materials, but fortunately there were plenty of them.
After the few left, Xu Jingming soon received a notification that 1.5 billion Blue Star coins had arrived in his account.
"You hunted all these fierce beasts today?" Leng Yuexi was a little curious.
"That's right." Xu Jingming, confirming the text message of the deposit, replied with a smile.
Although he could have gone straight to Hearing Ling Shuang for money, doing so constantly would certainly not be proper.
Having money of his own simply felt better.
"Fifteen billion Blue Star coins in a single day?!" Leng Yuechan beside them instinctively covered her mouth and exclaimed in amazement.
One had to know,
their Spirit Fox Guild's Myanmar branch, after a whole month of slaving away, only earned a net profit of 1.5 billion.
Xu Jingming worked one day and directly matched their entire month!
"That's only because Jingming's strength is formidable; otherwise an ordinary eighth-rank Master Zongshi couldn't possibly have this kind of money-making speed."
Leng Yuexi said, shaking her head.
The higher the rank of an ability user, the more they cherish their life; most ability users, after reaching eighth rank, rarely enter the wilderness zones.
Unless they were truly short on money and needed to hunt fierce beasts, they would not enter the wilderness zones.
Even so, these eighth-rank Grand Masters usually only fought seventh-rank fierce beasts.
Rather than seeking out eighth-rank fierce beasts of the same rank as themselves—after all, the danger of doing so was far too great.
"So that's how it is." Leng Yuechan suddenly understood.
True, even she herself rarely entered the wilderness zones after breaking through to sixth rank.
Let alone the higher-ranked seventh- and eighth-rank ability users, who naturally cherished their lives even more.
"Oh right, Jingming, you'll sleep here tonight."
"This villa has plenty of bedrooms; aside from the two on the second floor that Xiao Chan and I are using, you can pick any of the others."
Leng Yuexi said to Xu Jingming.
"No need."
Xu Jingming shook his head. "Tonight I'll stay over on the training ground side; I want to study the Body Tempering Art."
