Chapter 7 Consumption
The next day, the entire Ping An Community was in an uproar.
Lin Yi, the son of Lin Zhidong, passed the martial arts exam before graduating from high school and moved his whole family to Mingyue Community.
For the peaceful neighborhood where ordinary people gather, being a martial artist is a lofty and unattainable status.
After giving their "good-for-nothing" kids a good scolding, the neighbors all showed up and helped Lin Yi and his family move.
Actually, according to Lin Yi, there was nothing to move; once they arrived at Mingyue Community, they could just buy everything new.
The S-level protocol alone provides 1 million Huaxia coins as start-up capital and 1 million secret manual purchase rights.
But Lin's parents insisted, saying it was an old item they were used to.
In reality, they're just afraid of spending money.
"Well, lifestyle habits can't be changed overnight."
Lin Yi wasn't someone who forgot his roots because he had money. His philosophy was that one's consumption level should match one's abilities; he wouldn't try to impress others by spending beyond his means, nor would he be a miser who wronged himself.
……
In the afternoon, in the media room on the second floor of Lin Yi's house.
"The 1 million starting capital and the 3 million access rights to purchase martial arts manuals have arrived. Enter the internal martial arts network of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy, purchase the techniques, and then set foot in the wilderness!" Lin Yi was somewhat excited.
The full extent of the life-eating vine cannot be revealed at present.
People of Zhuge Tao's caliber are fine, even war gods are fine, they wouldn't understand the value of the Life-Eating Vine.
But for powerful figures like Hong and Lei Shen, it held a fatal attraction.
Lin Yi didn't want to gamble on Hong and Lei Shen's character.
"Only when the Life-Eating Vine is upgraded to the sixth level of the planetary realm, relying on the innate advantages of plant size and strength, can at least avoid defeat, if not surpass Hong and Thor."
"At that time, even if the Life-Eating Vine is exposed, Hong and Lei Shenwan, despite their malicious intentions, will still have reservations about me."
"Hmm, if we want to unleash our full potential, we must first get the Life-Eating Vine to break through to the sixth level of the Planetary Realm!"
"My own strength also needs to keep up, at least to the level of a War God, and I also need the Black God Set, so that I can't become a weak point."
Lin Yi sorted out his thoughts and logged into Extreme Home.
Only martial artists from the Limitless Martial Arts Academy are qualified to enter the Academy's internal martial arts network.
The HR Alliance platform is accessible to any martial artist.
"Extreme Home." Lin Yi typed the URL into the keyboard.
Suddenly, a massive 200-inch screen appeared on one wall of the home theater, and the website "Extreme Home" appeared on the screen.
"Beep." Lin Yi verifies the iris.
Accompanied by the music of flowing water, Lin Yi's personal page appeared on the giant screen.
Above is a photo of Lin Yi, and below are some information tables.
Name: Lin Yi
Sex: Male
Address: Jiangnan Base City, Huaxia Kingdom
Martial Arts Certificate Number: 426123205608010086
Rank: Warrior (Beginner)
Contribution value: 0 points
Currency balance: 4 million Huaxia coins (including 3 million in secret manual quota)
One of them was flashing continuously, with a line of text on the button: "Two new emails".
Lin Yi tapped gently and opened the email inbox.
"Whoosh!"
Upon opening the first email, a video immediately appeared.
This email mainly introduced some of the benefits promised after the contract was signed with Zhuge Tao.
For example, a free purchase quota of 300 million yuan for the secret manual, congratulations to Lin Yi on his successful assessment, etc.
The second email was also a video, but the content was different from the first one.
This video mainly introduces some of the functional modules of Extreme Home, such as weapons, secret manuals, and contribution points.
Lin Yi browsed through the pages briefly and then entered the online store page.
A huge screen displayed a wide variety of detailed categories of items.
Lin Yi selected the 'Secret Manual'—'Attack Type'...
"Apocalypse", Category: Gunplay.
Rating: Ultimate.
Price: 1000 billion Huaxia Coins (full price), 500 billion Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: four-star contribution points)
"Ninefold Thunder Blade", Category: Blade Technique.
Rating: Ultimate.
Price: 1000 billion Huaxia Coins (full price), 500 billion Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: four-star contribution points)
……
"Mist Sword", Category: Swordsmanship.
Rating: S-level.
Price: 30 billion Huaxia Coins (full price), 15 billion Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: three-star contribution points)
……
After weighing his options, Lin Yi clicked on "Mist Sword".
He didn't have a particular favorite weapon, but he drew the "Divine Sword," a weapon comparable to a supreme treasure. Unless he drew an even better weapon, it would be enough for him to use for a long time.
Choosing a secret manual is naturally about matching it with other tools.
"The Mist Sword, though not as good as the 'World Destroyer' or the 'Ninefold Thunder Blade,' is sufficient for use up to the Planetary level. We'll replace it then." Lin Yi smiled slightly.
"Mist Sword" All Five Levels - Price: 30 billion Huaxia Coins (full price), 15 billion Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: three-star contribution points)
……
The first three tiers of "Mist Sword" cost 6 million Huaxia Coins (full price) and 3 million Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: two-star contribution points).
The first two levels of "Mist Sword" cost 2 million Huaxia Coins (full price) and 1 million Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: one-star contribution points).
The first level of "Mist Sword" costs 5000 million Huaxia Coins (full price) or 2500 million Huaxia Coins (half price, requirement: one-star contribution points).
Without the previously signed contract, he wouldn't even be able to buy the first level, because he doesn't have any contribution points.
With this contract, the first purchase of attack techniques, movement techniques, and sword techniques manuals is exempt from contribution point requirements.
"The Mist Sword isn't the most powerful, but it's also not that difficult to master. I'm sure I can master it." Lin Yi took a deep breath.
I tapped the touchscreen lightly.
"Please confirm whether you wish to purchase the first three levels of 'Mist Sword,' which requires a payment of 3 million Chinese Yuan!"
The message on the big screen indicated that this was Lin Yi's first purchase.
"Confirm!" Lin Yi clicked.
"Please confirm again via iris scan."
Lin Yi aimed his pupils at the camera.
"drop!"
"Confirmed."
Purchase successful!
"Payment successful!"
"The first three levels of the 'Mist Sword' manual will be delivered within 24 hours." The screen displayed a series of prompts.
Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction. There was still 1 million yuan in start-up capital. Lin Yi kept 1 million yuan as a family reserve fund, and used the rest to buy a set of A6 longswords, B6 combat uniforms, and supplies for the field tactical backpack.
"I don't know how long it will take me to master the Mist Sword."
Lin Yi felt a sense of anticipation as he touched the Life-Eating Vine that served as his belt around his waist, thinking to himself.
"Xiao Lin, your third uncle's family is here. It's alright, come down."
Lin's mother's voice came from downstairs, filled with joy.
"Third Uncle?"
Lin Yi was taken aback. He had heard his mother mention his third uncle a few times. He was a martial artist, and in his memory, they would meet during the Chinese New Year. His uncle had even helped arrange his parents' jobs at the machinery factory. He was considered a good relative.
"Coming, Mom."
Lin Yi smiled and agreed, then got up and went downstairs.
