Chapter 1929: Chapter 1929: Success


“To be honest, little brother, I am a core member of the Bloodthirst Hall and have the right to recruit people. You can check our guild on the forum; apart from super guilds, we surely rank within the top hundred of large guilds. How about this, if little brother is willing to give me this Secret, I’ll directly admit you into our guild, bypassing the beginner stage, and making you a regular member. Moreover, I’ll give you a powerful combat Skill Book as compensation,” said the core member of Bloodthirst Hall, gritting his teeth.


Around them, many newbie players watched with envy. Stepping out of the Beginner’s Village, at least at level twenty-something, they were no strangers to this game.


This game is vast, and players are numerous. Even super guilds have no more than two hundred thousand members.


Moreover, large guilds can recruit a maximum of one hundred thousand people, which is just a drop in the ocean compared to billions of players.


Large guilds appear as giant entities to these new players, offering unimaginable benefits that newbie players in the current stage can’t even comprehend.


The current situation is that newbie players can only join small guilds to get some guild benefits.


If you can enter a medium-sized guild, you’re considered a minor expert. Without the potential to become an expert or connections, you’re not getting in.


Those impressive newbie players might at most join a sub-guild of a super guild, and to become official members, they’ll have to endure a long process.


The thought of becoming an official member of a large guild is something newbie players here don’t even dare to dream about. This is why super guilds are held in such high esteem, and super guild players have a natural sense of superiority.


Even large guilds ranked in the top hundred have this attitude; there’s no point in thinking about those more impressive ones, who absolutely see themselves above others.


Even the determined stall owner hesitated for a moment, gritting his teeth he said, “Sorry, membership is good, but it also needs to align with strength. If my strength reaches that level, I’ll naturally have better guild choices. I can earn good skills over time, but getting a Secret is a stroke of luck; I probably won’t get it again next time. Heaven won’t favor me all the time.”


Everyone’s eyes lit up, as it made perfect sense. If one obtains the Warrior’s Secret Techniques, just a bit of insight can turn it into a powerful method that others can’t learn. At that point, people will naturally vie for it.


Joining a large guild may be good, but if your strength isn’t great, even if you join, it won’t last long.


“A smart person, but it’s a pity; the buyer wasn’t lying. Finding a buyer isn’t easy, probably won’t run into any big spenders today,” Yaogu commented.


Li Yao chuckled, “If this Bloodthirst Hall person isn’t the big spender, then I probably have to be.”


Yaogu said in surprise, “You fancy this Pupil Skill? Is this Secret any different? Even though Pupil Skill Secret might be special, it can’t compare to the Warrior’s Secret Techniques, right?”


“My Titan’s Eye is too fierce, strong but overly strong. My current strength can’t fully handle it, and this Secret of Ghost Eye, though its effect is ordinary, can just suppress some of Titan’s Eye’s power. This way, I can control it freely. Simply put, any thief with stealth below level 5, without specific rune enhancement, is basically without stealth in front of me,” Li Yao explained.


“If word of what you said gets out, many people might be furious,” Yaogu said with a wry smile. This Pupil Skill was meant to enhance eye equipment or the eyes themselves, and to him, it actually served as suppression.


“Actually, this Ghost Eye does have quite a few peculiarities. Let’s see what I can comprehend from it,” Li Yao said.


At this point, both sides could not reach an agreement; the guy had no intention of joining their guild, and the player couldn’t do anything more after a few more attempts at persuading. He saw the stall owner being more determined and simply shook his head and walked away.


The spectators also dispersed. Although the item was good, newbie players could only encounter good skills by chance, let alone a Secret as rare as winning a five-million lottery.


Newbie players with Secret skills would prefer to use them themselves rather than trade for a Pupil Skill Secret, which currently holds little value.


Just as the stall owner was feeling disappointed, Li Yao stepped forward and said, “I want this Pupil Skill. Although it’s not as valuable as the Secret I’m offering, I need it.”


Li Yao’s words immediately made the stall owner’s eyes light up, “What Warrior’s Secret Techniques do you have to exchange?”


“Not exactly a Warrior’s Secret Techniques but rather a universal one, the Bloodlust Secret Techniques,” Li Yao stated.


This time after conquering the main city and obtaining the treasure trove and warehouse, many precious items were sorted out, including various Secrets, though many were common goods.


The Bloodlust Secret Techniques was one of them, a universal Secret that can help one comprehend skills like Bloodthirst Skill (short-term increase in combat power), Blood Boil Technique (burn a part of blood volume to deal damage), Bloodsuck Technique, and related skills.


For warriors, especially Berserkers, it’s very compatible with the Bloodlust Secret Techniques.


While it may be common, the Secret is still a luxury comparable to mounts for super experts, let alone newbie players.


With the Bloodlust Secret Techniques, this little warrior, whether pursuing weapon warrior or berserker paths, would become a hot commodity; Secrets are exceptional.


“The Secret isn’t on me; if you agree, I’ll go fetch it from the warehouse by the plaza. If you don’t agree, then we’ll leave it,” Li Yao said.


The stall owner had checked the background of the Secret and naturally knew the evaluation of the Bloodlust Secret Techniques, though he was already satisfied with such a Secret.


Even though he knew, for those to whom it was truly useful, the Pupil Skill Secret actually offers greater value than the Bloodlust Secret Techniques, such as the person before him.


But the problem was, despite countless inquiries over several days, no one had actually bought it. Besides, for him, the Bloodlust Secret Techniques meant more than the Pupil Skill Secret.


“Alright, I’ll trade,” the stall owner promptly agreed, once again emphasizing that only through real strength can one get better items.


Li Yao nodded, “Please wait a moment.”


Ten minutes later, Li Yao returned, and they completed the transaction.


“I wonder which guild you’re from, big brother? I learned quite a bit these days. Secrets are always in short supply; guild outputs are mostly internally consumed. Even when Secrets are sold, they’re quickly bought by large guilds for internal consumption. There aren’t many guilds that can release such practical Secrets,” the stall owner commented.


Li Yao directly learned the Secret and then said, “Starfire.”


After speaking, the two left. The stall owner, seeing the envious and jealous looks around him, shivered and promptly learned the Secret in front of everyone, causing surrounding people to disperse in disappointment. Even killing him now would be futile since he had already learned it.


“Starfire, huh…” The stall owner watched the backs of the two, with sparks flickering in his eyes…
