  "Materials? The type that we collect?" Wang Yu turned to ask Fearless.

  "That’s right!" Fearless nodded his head.

  "F*ck! This nuisance studio is really despicable ah!"

  Initially, Wang Yu thought that Daybreak Studio was merely trying to monopolise the market for materials. Hearing Li Xue’s words, Wang Yu understood what was going on. Daybreak Studio’s ultimate goal was actually the medicine market.

  Firstly, they would stock up the goods. When the game turned official and the prices of gold dropped substantially, they would increase the price of materials ferociously.

  In this way, Daybreak Studio would have gained control of the pricing of both the medicine and the materials to make them.

  Lastly, they would bring the Medium Grade Recovery Medicine which they stocked up previously back into the market. Even if Li Xue was the only one who knew how to concoct the medicines, she would still be helpless because of the vast difference in prices of materials and medicine. These despicable fellas from the Daybreak Studio would ultimately control the market.

  Typical speculation and profiteering! How dirty!

  Fearless laughed, "That was why I got you to stock up some of the medicine……"

  "Oh yes, my wife still keeps a huge pile of the medicine in the storehouse. After she gets off work, I’ll get her to bring them out. Once we have the stocks, we can sell the medicine according to the prices of the Daybreak Studio." Wang Yu said cheerfully.

  "No need!" Fearless smiled as he shook his hand, "We have a more vicious method. Don’t forget that we did store some materials too."

  "Because the game went official early than expected, I doubt that the Daybreak Studio has more stocks than us. By making the price of the materials so high now, they are simply courting death."

  "So?"

  "Wait! We will wait until they sell out all of the medicine they kept in stock. Once that happens, they will definitely use materials to blackmail sister Li Xue to work with them." Fearless said confidently.

  Li Xue added, "They’ve already approached me. However, I’ve turned them down."

  Fearless chuckled, "Seems like they have a decent number in stock. We shall let them have a sweet taste of success for a while first…… Afterwards, we will watch them lose all their family fortune."

  After saying this, Fearless turned to Li Xue, "Contact Frostblade later. We have previously stocked up a large quantity of materials for this medicine. We will not lose to Daybreak Studio in this aspect."

  After the Daybreak Studio finished selling their medicine, they could only use their materials as their backing power since they didn’t have the means to produce the medicine. However, the Quan Zhen Sect also did invest a large number of gold in stocking up in the materials. Therefore, they wouldn’t lose out to the Daybreak Studio in terms of quantity of materials stocked up.

  The materials for the medicine were never anything rare. With this many gamers, the quantity of materials will definitely increase over time. The price will definitely fix at one point…… On the other hand, the price of medicine will undoubtedly return to the sellers’ market once the market stabilised.

  Initially, Fearless intended to make a fortune together with the Daybreak Studio using the materials stocked up by the Daybreak Studio. Who knew that the system would go official in advance? This led to both sides being evenly matched. Ultimately, Li Xue was still the most important person.

  Both sides had materials needed to concoct medicine. However, the Daybreak Studio’s materials would only stay as materials if they couldn’t sell them. On the other hand, Quan Zhen Sect’s materials could be turned into medicine. This didn’t include low grade medicine. Not only do other shops sell low grade medicine too, using the materials stocked up to make low grade medicine was basically a way to lose money……

  All in all, the producer of the goods will always be the most important.

  "Fearless ah, nicely done!" Wang Yu couldn’t help but compliment Fearless.

  "Ah!" Fearless replied, "The only reason I can do this is because the people at Daybreak Studio are too despicable."

  "But we will offend many people by doing this right?"

  Fearless blinked twice before replying, "Is the Quan Zhen Sect ever afraid of offending others?"

  "True!" Wang Yu nodded because he agreed that his teammates had always been a lawless bunch……

  After wandering in the convenience store, Little One and co. came online in succession.

  "Is Brother Bull going to start grinding the dungeons today?" The moment Little One came online, he sent a message to Wang Yu.

  After Level 25, clearing dungeons was the fastest way to level up. Also, it was the main source of equipment. After getting a taste of the Hell Tier dungeon, Little One and co. couldn’t stop thinking about it.

  Wang Yu looked at his friend list and realised that not all of the Quan Zhen Sect members are here yet. Therefore, he replied, "Hold on for a while. I have some matters at hand."

  "Oh, remember to call me alright!" Little One pleaded pitifully.

  "Definitely! Otherwise, I will not have enough people……"

  "……" Little One was speechless at how direct this fella could be.

  After closing his chat, Wang Yu took the teleportation formation to the forging room at the Guild Headquarters. He cautiously placed the Smelting Stones, which he exchanged over the few days, on the workbench.

  Speaking of these Smelting Stones, Wang Yu’s eyes were in tears. For these stones, he grinded the PVP Arena for three consecutive days. Wang Yu was already extremely sick of these boring PKs.

  After all, the difference in strength was simply too vast. Even in LOL, you would get bored of beating the AI over and over again right?

  Wang Yu took off his Martial Artist’s Regret before opening up the Magical Refining window. He threw his one-handed sword "Swordmaster’s Enforcer" into it.

  Under the two equipment, was displayed. Wang Yu took out two Smelting Stones to throw it in.

  Following an animation of the smelting process, the one-handed sword fused into Wang Yu’s fist weapon.

  Wang Yu picked up the fist weapon and was rather disappointed.

  There was no change to the Set Effect and Component Level. The only difference was an additional one-handed sword shaped switch……

  Isn’t this a scam? The short edge of the Universe Sword could also be used as a one-handed sword. What a waste of two precious Smelting Stones……

  At the thought of the Smelting Stones, Wang Yu’s heart was in more pain.

  Next up was the Martial Artist’s Protector. With the earlier experience, Wang Yu started to hesitate.

  After wasting two Smelting Stones on such a rubbish, Wang Yu needed to sacrifice ten Smelting Stones for this…… For ten Smelting Stones, Wang Yu didn’t leave the PVP Arena for three days.

  If another rubbish comes out from this, Wang Yu really wants to bang his head against the wall. During this period of time and given Wang Yu’s rate of leveling up, there was a high possibility of the other fellas from the Quan Zhen Sect surpassing him. The main reason was because of the time he spent at the PVP Arena.

  "Should I forge or not?" Wang Yu looked at the Smelting Stones on the workbench with a lot of conflict in his heart.

  If he forged, he was afraid of producing another rubbish. If he didn’t, wouldn’t the past three days be a complete waste of time?

  "F*ck it! I’ll just forge it!" At last, Wang Yu clenched his teeth and threw the Smelting Stones in.

  The Smelting Stones would only be Smelting Stones if he used it for forging. If he didn’t, it would merely be a pile of stones. Instead of wasting space by leaving them there, he felt that he should take the gamble.

  After throwing the stones in, Wang Yu instantly clicked on the ’confirm fuse’ button. He was afraid he would regret which was why he didn’t waste any time.

  After the animation, a ray of light flashed by and two pieces of clothing became one.

  This equipment was very showy and its design was one of the Eastern culture. The tone of the clothing was mainly based on black and white. It looked plain, simple and scholarly. The two colours matched well as it formed a Yin Yang fish which consolidated and upheld one’s energy. The Yin Yang fish emblem on Wang Yu’s chest looked extremely shining. This new outfit made Wang Yu especially dashing.

  Without mentioning about any other factors, the appearance of this clothing made Wang Yu extremely satisfied. It was definitely so much better than his previous Heavenly Silk Armour.

  "The design is not bad……" Wang Yu nodded satisfyingly. "Now I wonder if its attributes will be as trashy as the previous weapon."

  Wang Yu cautiously clicked on the equipment’s attributes.
