“Director Bu, thank you for helping us today. I will treat you to a drink next time.”

At the entrance of the expedition association, Mo You smiled as he spoke with Bu Bai.

Bu Bai laughed loudly and waved his hands slightly. “I didn’t help much. Instead, I have to congratulate you for having such an outstanding son.”

He patted Mo Xiaobai’s shoulder, and continued, “Xiaobai, all the best for your university entrance exam. I hope that you will have a good result.”

Mo Xiaobai smiled and nodded. “I will. Thank you, Director Bu.”

“Alright. I have other things to do. Let’s drink together another day.”

Bu Bai smiled and nodded.

Mo Xiaobai and Mo You bade farewell to Bu Bai, and left the expedition association.

“Let’s go to the gray metal weapon shop to take a look. That is the best weapon shop in Pingxi Town. There should be weapons suitable for you there.”

Mo Xiaobai nodded in anticipation. “Alright.”

Finally, he was going to have his own weapon.

The gray metal weapon shop was very close to the expedition association. Since most of the adventurers were powerful Force Warriors, many weapon stalls, item stalls, and pharmacies were opened around the expedition association.

The expedition associations in every city would create a prosperous shopping district.

Mo Xiaobai followed Mo You, and came to a gray-colored door in front of a stall that was a few hundred square meters big.

On the plaque above the door, the words ‘gray metal weapon shop’ were written in huge letters.

“Welcome.”

The moment they entered, they heard a low and fierce voice.

Mo Xiaobai looked in the direction of the voice. Its source was an old barbarian with extremely thick muscles and braided gray hair.

The barbarian man saw Mo You and smiled. “Captain Mo, it’s you.”

Mo You nodded. He looked at the customers in the shop, and smiled as he said, “Old Gray, your business is not bad.”

“Hahaha.” Old Gray laughed. “Not bad. Are you here to buy weapons?”

Mo You nodded. “My son just became a black steel adventurer. I came to buy weapons for him.”

Old Gray glanced at Mo Xiaobai and smiled. “He became a black steel adventurer at such a young age? Captain Mo, you have a successor.”

Mo You was extremely delighted. He opened his mouth happily, and said, “Alright. Are there any first-rank swords?”

Old Gray furrowed his brows and pondered for a moment before his eyes lit up. He walked out from behind the counter. “There’s an elite grade first-rank heavy sword.”

He walked straight to a shelf that was filled with swords, and took a huge and heavy sword that was 1.5 meters in length.

The huge sword was entirely gray in color, and there were white patterns on its spine. It looked very sharp.

Old Gray smiled as he explained, “It’s made using graystone essence and elite grade graystone wild boar’s tusks. It’s extremely sharp, and it will increase its user’s strength to a certain degree. However, it’s a little heavy. If you just became a Force Warrior, it might be hard for you to wield it.”

The moment they heard that it was heavy, Mo Xiaobai and Mo You’s eyes lit up.

Mo Xiaobai took a step forward and smiled. “Can I try it?”

Old Gray looked at Mo Xiaobai and held the sword handle as he passed it to Mo Xiaobai. “Be careful, it’s a little heavy…”

When he saw Mo Xiaobai taking the sword with one hand, he stopped his sentence abruptly. He looked at Mo Xiaobai in shock.

Mo Xiaobai moved his wrist and twirled the sword.

Slash…

The air was cut by the blade of the sword. The wind thus formed blew past Old Gray’s face, and his pupils constricted. “What great strength!”

This strength didn’t look like it would belong to a one force point Force Warrior who’d just achieved his breakthrough.

Mo Xiaobai disregarded Old Gray’s words. He realized that this sword was really smooth for him to use.

Also, when he held the heavy sword, there seemed to be power entering his body from the sword. This allowed his strength to increase.

This increase was a little small, but this small difference in strength might sometimes be the crux of a battle.

He lifted the corners of his lips and smiled.

“Good sword!”

Then, he instilled his force into the heavy sword. A pale white glow appeared around the blade. There was a small hint of green in the white glow.

Slash!

Mo Xiaobai wielded the sword once again. A strong wind was formed, and the low sound of the wind was heard.

All the Force Warriors in the shop raised their heads and looked over.

When they saw Mo Xiaobai’s young face, their eyes widened in surprise.

He was so young, but he was already so powerful?!

Comparisons angered people.

Many slightly older Force Warriors had complicated expressions on their faces.

Mo You nodded slightly. “The force conductivity is not bad, either.”

Old Gray smiled and revealed his uneven teeth. “You’re an old customer already. Are you still suspecting my craftsmanship?”

He looked at Mo Xiaobai. He seemed so fond of the sword that he couldn’t bear to part with it. Mo You smiled. “Do you want to look at other weapons?”

Mo Xiaobai shook his head. “I’ll take this one.”

He was extremely satisfied with this sword.

With this sword, he felt that he could increase his combat ability by 10% or even 20%!

This was the effect of an elite grade weapon. What about uncommon grade? What about rare grade?

How much could those weapons increase his combat ability?

Mo Xiaobai looked forward to owning such weapons in the future. If only he could find an uncommon grade weapon.

Unfortunately, the grade of low-level exceptional ingredients was normally quite low. Hence, it would be difficult to use them to make a high-grade weapon.

Mo Xiaobai knew that the sword Mo You used was just uncommon grade.

It would be even rarer to find a first-rank uncommon grade weapon.

Mo Xiaobai stopped thinking about it.

This heavy sword was good enough.

“How much is it?”

Old Gray smiled brightly. “500 crystal remnants. No bargaining allowed.”

The corners of Mo Xiaobai’s lips twitched.

So expensive!

Those are enough for me to cultivate for eight days.

Mo You nodded. “That’s reasonable. Let’s pay for it.”

***

After paying the bill, Mo You and Mo Xiaobai left the gray metal weapon shop as Old Gray sent them off enthusiastically.

After that, Mo You brought Mo Xiaobai to another item shop nearby to buy elite grade armor.

Leather armor was made from elite-level graystone wolf skin. It was able to increase its owner’s strength to a certain degree, and its defense was not bad, either.

The price was touching too. It cost 400 crystal remnants.

The weapon and armor cost 900 crystal remnants in total. It was enough to allow Mo Xiaobai to cultivate for half a month.

Mo Xiaobai felt a little pain in his heart.

However, the increase in his combat ability was obvious too. If he geared up fully, his combat strength would increase by 30%!

From this, we could understand how precious items were.

After buying his armor, Mo You bought a more voluminous space ring for Mo Xiaobai. The original space ring couldn’t store his graystone heavy sword.

When they reached home after buying all the items needed, it was already evening.

After eating dinner and bathing, Mo Xiaobai went back to his room to rest.

He lay on his bed and calmed his excitement at receiving his first weapon and armor. Then, he started thinking about his plans.

He had to continue his cultivation.

He would cultivate for an hour a day. That would cost him 60 crystal remnants.

He was still able to cultivate for five more days at this rate.

After he finished his crystal remnants, he would need to go to the hollow realm.

After getting enough resources, he needed to work hard in his cultivation, and reach one force point fifth-grade in one month.

That way, he would have hope of entering one of the top three institutions.

Mo Xiaobai’s eyes were shining. He was full of anticipation.
