Ancient Sword of Clarity, Upgrade!

When Lu Dayong heard Lu Ziling’s voice, he immediately leaned over.

“Ziling? Why are you two together?”

“We’re in Li City right now, and we’re both here to participate in the National Class Tournament,” Lu Ziling replied.

“The National Class Tournament? Where all the elite young people gather?!” the two elders exclaimed in shock.

“That’s right!”

!!

Seeing the two elders happy, Lu Ziling was very happy.

“And Little Lu, he’s also a team captain this year, just like me!”

“Really?” Lu Dayong could no longer hide his smile. “You brat, you’ve grown up.”

As he spoke, he took out his phone and was ready to show off to his friends and family.

“Old man,” Mrs. Lu chided, “You should be showing off later. It’s not easy for our kids to call us.”

Lu Benwei and Lu Ziling both laughed as the family happily talked on the phone.

Since Chu Yan and the others were still waiting, Lu Benwei and Lu Ziling did not let them wait too long. They hung up the phone after explaining the situation.

“It’s getting late, let’s go back to the hotel after dinner?”

Lu Benwei suggested treating Chu Yan and the others to a meal. Everyone naturally did not stand on ceremony. They found a hot pot restaurant with a good reputation and had a meal together before returning to the hotel.

The next morning, it was also an uneventful day. Lu Benwei got up early and went to Li City’s underground hunter market. He wanted to purchase a batch of equipment to upgrade the Ancient Sword of Clarity. He came here because it was the closest to the hotel.

[Bright Void Ancient Sword (attribute weapon): No level, no increase, no attributes.]

[Effect: it can double the attributes of the wearer!]

[Can devour other equipment to grow and enhance the effect.]

[Devouring other equipment and weapons have a chance of increasing its level. Every increase in level can double the increase in ability.]

[If you upgrade to red level, you can achieve a tenfold increase in attributes, and black level can achieve a hundredfold increase in attributes.]

Currently, the Ancient Sword of Clarity’s level was just unranked, not even the lowest level, green level. Even so, it could still double his attributes.

The hunter market was filled with all kinds of people. There were unknown equipment, smuggled strengthening stones, and potions of unknown origin.

The vendors and buyers all looked fierce.

Lu Benwei was the only decent young man, and he did not seem to fit in here.

No one smiled or laughed they saw Lu Benwei pass by.

“Another contestant?”

“He’s so young, could he be here for the tournament?”

Someone laughed and said to Lu Benwei, “Kid, can’t you find your mother?”

“Don’t go any further. Your mother isn’t inside.”

After saying that, they burst into laughter. Hearing this, Lu Benwei’s face was expressionless as he said, “I’m here to ask for some equipment.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Benwei with a mocking look, then they smacked their lips and shook their heads.

“I have less than 500 yuan on me.”

“Take this machete as my gift to you.”

Lu Benwei continued to walk forward, and a rusty machete was thrown at his feet. He frowned and looked up to find the person who threw the knife.

The man with the dragon tattoo waved at Lu Benwei. “Kid, just go. Take it and leave. Don’t delay our business.”

Everyone looked at Lu Benwei with ridicule. In their hearts, they all thought that this little brat with a long face would break his defense because of the humiliation of his self-esteem. When that time came, there would be fun to watch.

However, Lu Benwei bent down, picked it up, and patted the dust off it. The smell of rust was very strong, and it also had the smell of soil as if it had been buried in the ground for a long time.

“Hmm, although the durability of the machete has been reduced to the lowest, it’s still a blue level weapon. If it’s reforged, it might be upgraded to purple level,” Lu Benwei paused and said.

“Since it’s a gift from uncle, I’ll accept it.”

With that, Lu Benwei wiped off the rust on the tip of the blade, and the machete suddenly revealed a threatening cold light.

The man with the tattoo was dumbfounded. He thought that the brat was just putting on an act, but the threatening cold light made him believe that the knife was once a powerful weapon. When he came back to his senses, Lu Benwei had already walked far away.

Before leaving the underground hunter market, Lu Benwei bought two green level weapons just in case. Normally, he would not be able to afford the cost of a green weapon.

However, with the system and the One-click Ten Times Gold Coins, Lu Benwei’s assets were so much that he could not count them on two hands.

Soon, he returned to the hotel. The hotel had been specially renovated to build individual cultivation rooms for the students.

Lu Benwei applied for a room and directly took out his sword.

“Swish!”

The sound of a sword rang out, and the entire narrow space was instantly filled with sharp sword intent.

“This is the first time I’m trying to devour something. What should I do?” Lu Benwei muttered to himself.

The next second, he noticed that there was a progress bar on the sword. The progress bar had already accumulated to 50%. Lu Benwei guessed that the previous owner might have tried to level it up but ended up failing.

Lu Benwei took a deep breath and took out the green level weapon he bought.

“I don’t care, let’s try it first.”

Then, he placed the green level weapon on the sword.

“Swish!”

The sword light flickered, and the buzzing sound was sharp and ear-piercing.

“Crack! Crack!”

Under Lu Benwei’s gaze, the green level weapon was eaten by the Ancient Sword of Clarity. He was dumbfounded. He thought of all kinds of devouring methods, but he did not expect it to be like eating.

“It’s that fierce?”

After he recovered, Lu Benwei began to check the progress. The result surprised him. He had only grown one percent out of the fifty percent progress.

“Could it be that my level isn’t high enough?” Lu Benwei’s mouth twitched as he spoke.

At this time, he had already taken out the rusty blue level weapon.

“A blue level weapon should be able to increase quite a bit, right?”

In the next second, the rusty blade was devoured by the sword. However, the sword’s invisible mouth stopped swallowing halfway. The other half that it had eaten was even turned into pieces and spat out.

The progress bar went backward, finally dropping to five percent.

Lu Benwei’s eyes almost popped out.

“F*ck, I was too careless.”

It could be seen that upgrading the Ancient Sword of Clarity to green level would require a lot of equipment.

Lu Benwei was speechless. It was not because he had no money, but because he was blacklisted by Li City’s hunter market. Where was he going to find more equipment?
