Swallowed Star Volume 2 Chapter 15

Luo Feng went through many posts in the fighter discussion board, such as “50 frequently asked questions on hunting monsters”, “basic wilderness survival knowledge”, “how to avoid angering horde leader level monsters”, “28 ways to escape”…… all sorts of posts. Reading these allowed Luo Feng to learn a lot, and also understand the hardships of a fighter! Fighters may have high positions in society, but they put their lives on the line for it!

“Yes, these posts sure have a point”

“Technique, attacks, and Dao Yin techniques. These three major scrolls are the most important to fighters! The Dao Yin techniques determine how much their strength rises while techniques and attacks determine their combat strength” Luo Feng read the post and agreed. These three scrolls are indeed the most important to a fighter.

If you have money, you should throw them at these three scrolls!

“No wonder the Dojo of Limits allowed me to have these three scrolls for free” Luo Feng knew that the Dojo of Limits obviously wanted their own fighters to become stronger.

“Let’s go in the internet market and see what’s there”

luo Feng tapped the touch screen of the wireless keyboard and entered the webpage of the internet market board.

Suddenly——All sorts of specific classifications for goods appeared on the large screen on the wall of the video room. Luo Feng picked ‘scroll’——after pressing ‘attack type’ three times, the screen suddenly showed photos of the scrolls, their names, and their prices.

《Destroyer》，Type: Spear. Rating: Legendary. Price: 100 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 50 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 4 star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》，Type: Blade. Rating: Legendary. Price: 100 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 50 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 4 star contribution rank)

……

《Phantom Blade secrets》，Type: Blade. Rating: SS. Price: 10 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 5 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 3 star contribution rank)

……

《Mist Sword》，Type: Blade. Rating: S. Price: 3 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 1.5 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 3 star contribution rank)

……

……

When Luo Feng saw the large list of scrolls, his eyes widened.

“Holy shit, they even sell the world’s strongest fighter’s (‘Hong) spear technique《Destroyer 》?And this《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》 is the technique of the second strongest fighter ‘Thunder Lord’?”Luo Feng was immediately attracted to the very top of the page, where the spear and blade techniques were rated legendary. However, the price of them left him wide-eyed.

They all cost 100 billion?

And a half price of 50 billion requires a contribution rank of 4 stars?

“A 4 star contribution rank, doesn’t that mean 10 million contribution points?” Luo Feng was very clear on the different contribution ranks.

10 thousand contribution points represents 1 star.

100 thousand contribution points represents 2 stars.

1,000 thousand contribution points represents 3 stars.

10,000 thousand contribution points represents 4 stars.

Once you reach 50,000 thousand contribution points, you reach the legendary 5 star rank! To reach the 5 star rank is virtually impossible; the difficulty is way too high.

*TL note: Yes I know 1,000 thousand is a million but I thought it would be nice to easily see the increments of 10 like the original version.

“《Destroyer》，the name of the world’s strongest attack technique” Luo Feng pressed 《Destroyer》, and was curious about the overall introduction for the 《Destroyer》，since this is the world’s strongest spear attack, most of the fighters that see this scroll would want to see an overview.

“Hm?” Luo Feng stared.

There were even more prices inside the webpage for the “Destroyer” scroll.

《Destroyer》All six levels——Price: 100 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 50 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 4 star contribution rank)

《Destroyer》First five levels——Price: 40 billion Chinese Dollars (full price), 20 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 4 star contribution rank)

《Destroyer》FIrst four levels——Price: 15 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 7.5 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 3 star contribution rank)

……

《Destroyer》First level——Price: 200 million Chinese dollars (full price), 100 million Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 1 star contribution rank)

“What? You can even buy this scroll in parts?” Luo Feng thought for a bit. Indeed, for an ultimate spear technique like the 《Destroyer》, who could afford the entire thing? That price is practically sky high! And even if someone does buy it, they have to start from the first level. And how many fighters can actually train to the sixth level?

Probably most fighters will be stuck on the first level for their entire lives; they’ll never be able to start training on the second level.

“This ultimate scroll… no wonder it’s the strongest fighter’s attack technique” Luo Feng stared at the introduction, “I can’t believe this spear technique is actually a package. If you buy this scroll, you basically buy both a technique scroll and an attack scroll” Luo Feng was envious.

Sadly, he trains with a blade.

And he couldn’t afford a price like that in the first place.

“《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》，like the 《Destroyer》, is also an ultimate scroll” Luo Feng immediately opened the 《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》’s website，If we say Luo Feng looked at the 《Destroyer》scroll for the sake of curiosity，then he’ll be looking at the《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》 with expectation and desire!

“Nine Stage Thunder Blade”, this is the scroll that a blade wielding fighter would want the most!

“Hm?” Luo Feng looked at the description.

The description says that the《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》is the hardest blade technique to learn on earth，even though it’s called a blade technique, it also incorporates agility and a unique Dao Yin technique! So the reason why the 《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》is hard to learn is because it requires too much strength, reflex, etc. from your body.

“A blade technique also has agility and a Dao Yin technique?” Luo Feng was overjoyed.

If the price isn’t absurd, then he can buy it!

Luo Feng looked closely at the price –

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》All nine stages——Price: 100 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 50 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: four star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First eight stages——Price: 50 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 25 billion Chinese Dollars (half price requirement: four star contribution rank)

……

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First five stages——Price: 2 billion Chinese dollars (full price), 1 billion Chinese dollars (half price requirement: 3 star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First four stages——Price: 500 million Chinese dollars (full price), 250 million Chinese dollars (half price requirement: two star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First three stages——Price: 200 million Chinese dollars (full price), 100 million Chinese dollars (half price requirement: two star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First two stages——Price: 100 million Chinese dollars (full price), 50 million Chinese dollars (half price requirement: two star contribution rank)

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》First stage——Price: 50 million Chinese dollars (full price), 25 million Chinese dollars (half price requirement: two star contribution rank)

WHen Luo Feng saw these prices, it was clear that the《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》had a full nine stages and it’s price was a bit cheaper than the 《Destroyer》’s.

“Hm?” Luo Feng raised his eyebrow. At the bottom of the website there was an alert written in red letters——‘《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》is an ultimate blade technique and is extremely hard to learn and begin. There are tons of fighters all over the planet who have tried to learn this technique but couldn’t even get into the first stage. When picking this technique, please be careful!’

When Luo Feng saw this alert, he hesitated.

Apparently this technique is very hard to learn. However, if you manage to successfully learn it, then it’s power is immensely high,

Buy it or not?

Since this is not a small number at all!

……

In the dim video room, the large screen was displaying the introduction of the 《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》while Luo Feng silently sat on the couch as he contemplated. If he really was going to buy the 《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》, then it wouldn’t be a small number at all! The amount of money he would spent would be sky high for even a fighter.

“If I’m going to train, then I’m going to train in the best one!” Luo Feng clenched his teeth and his eyes flashed, “I don’t believe that I won’t be able to learn this!”

Ever since he was little, Luo Feng has always been seriously training bitterly.

“I’m a spirit reader and my hidden spiritual force in my subconsciousness has taken the form of a dark, golden ball! My strength will surely have a period of rapid growth. I just don’t believe that I won’t be able to successfully learn the

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》” Luo Feng has always had a belief, which is the belief that the Dojo of Limits instructors teach their students——Pursue your limits, surpass your limits!

There was also another saying——‘A fighter that doesn’t want to become the world’s strongest fighter, isn’t a qualified fighter!’

“《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》I know I can successfully learn it“ Luo Feng took a deep breath and lightly tapped the display.

“Please confirm whether or not you want to purchase the first three stages of the

《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》, you need to pay 100 million Chinese dollars!” An alert appeared on the large screen. Since it’s Luo Feng’s first purchase, according to the his contract with the Dojo of Limits, he can ignore the contribution rank requirement for the half price deal.

“Confirm!” Luo Feng tapped it.

“Please confirm your identity via fingerprint to confirm again” a reminder appeared on the screen.

Luo Feng put his finger on the wireless keyboard’s fingerprint scanner.

[BEEP!]

“Identity confirmed”

“Purchase successful!”

“Discount successful!”

“The first three stages of the 《Nine Stage Thunder Blade》will arrive at Mr. Luo Feng’s home within 24 hours” consecutive notices appeared on the screen.

TL note: I kept changing the scroll names because I kept forgetting what I should put for them (so in this chapter, I said technique, attack, and Dao Yin technique). From now on, instead of technique, I’m just going to say agility (attack and Dao Yin technique will remain the same). Sorry for any confusion that may have caused.
