Chapter 30: Equipment Assembly CompletedHe now had fine-quality battle armor.

    As for weapons, Li Chengfeng had broken two swords in a single dungeon.

    So he no longer wanted to use the artificial sword with 50 points of physical attack.

    He redeemed the fine-quality Broken Jade Sword as his weapon.

    Its attributes were much better compared to the artificial sword.

    [Fine-Quality – Broken Jade Sword]

    Type: Sword

    Level: 10

    Description: Cuts through gold and jade without leaving a trace

    Weight: 16 kg

    Quality Transformation Multiplier: 2x

    Suitable Attribute: Water

    Physical Attack: 340

    Qi Damage Increase: +20% (Attribute mismatch -5%)

    Special Effect: Effective attack range of Qi techniques +10 meters

    Gem Inlay: None

    Forging Material: Iron Jade, rare mixed metal

    The spine of the sword was made of light blue iron jade.

    The center of the sword guard had a hole where a crystal could be inlaid.

    The blade was wide and flat, silver-bright like a mirror, and exceptionally sharp.

    Iron jade was more conducive to the conduction of water attribute Qi.

    So this sword was more suitable for martial artists with water attribute internal skills.

    However, Li Chengfeng had no primary attribute, so it didn’t matter what attribute the weapon had.

    Anyway, the 340 points of physical attack were about seven times that of the artificial sword he used before.

    The improvement was significant.

    As for the 5% Qi damage increase, it was negligible.

    The remaining weapon was a [Common – Gold-Splitting Knife].

    Shu Fuyao didn’t need it either.

    Li Chengfeng decided to keep it for now.

    In case he learned blade techniques in the future and had no blade to use.

    Compared to Li Chengfeng, Shu Fuyao, without the drop rate boost, was a bit unfortunate.

    She didn’t get a single piece of equipment from the entire dungeon.

    Only a one-star speed crystal stone and 18,000 yuan in cash.

    For an ordinary person, playing a two-player dungeon once would result in an income of less than 30,000 yuan.

    Of course, the set of battle armor Li Chengfeng won from Zhang Jie owed much to Shu Fuyao’s contribution.

    At that time, the money in Shu Fuyao’s account was also part of the bet.

    It was essentially a three-person bet.

    Therefore, both emotionally and logically, the set of battle armor Li Chengfeng obtained should count as part of Shu Fuyao’s share.

    “Zhang Jie’s set of battle armor sold for 140,000 yuan.”

    Li Chengfeng told her.

    “That expensive!”

    “Yes, I’ll count half for you, so I should give you 70,000 yuan. I’ll give you 30,000 yuan first, so you can buy a set of common equipment.”

    Li Chengfeng currently had just over 30,000 yuan on hand and the money hadn’t even warmed up yet*.

    He hadn’t fully experienced the feeling of financial ease.

    Shu Fuyao was a bit reluctant.

    But thinking about buying equipment as an investment in herself, to make better money in the future, she understood.

    With the 30,000 yuan from Li Chengfeng, plus her own 20,000 yuan and more, Shu Fuyao also had enough to buy four pieces of equipment, excluding the boots.

    She spent 46,000 yuan to buy the helmet, chestplate, gloves, and leg guards of the battle armor.

    Although she had the armor, she lacked a suitable weapon. Her artificial sword had sustained not insignificant damage after the dungeon.

    Common weapons dropped from the dungeon were about 60,000 yuan each.

    She couldn’t be left without a weapon. So Li Chengfeng simply gave her the [Common – Gold-Splitting Knife].

    He let her sell it and buy a sword.

    Their relationship was that of good friends, not that of a romantic couple.

    Shu Fuyao wasn’t the type of girl to take advantage of others. So she seriously calculated with Li Chengfeng:

    “The fine-quality boots you gave me are worth 24,000 yuan, and you just gave me 30,000 yuan. I sold the knife for 59,000 yuan. So, it turns out I owe you 40,000 yuan.”

    They were very close and Li Chengfeng didn’t want to be petty with her. s?a??h th? Nov?lF?re .??t website on G??gl? to access chapters of n?vels early and in the highest quality.

    After all, talking about money could hurt their relationship.

    “It’s small money, don’t worry about it.”

    Shu Fuyao smiled and didn’t dwell on the issue.

    With the money from selling the knife, she successfully bought a level 10 common-quality sword from the dungeon rewards.

    [Common – Ironwood Sword]

    Type: Sword

    Requirement: Level 10

    Description: Made of ironwood, with wood Qi channels

    Weight: 5 kg

    Quality Transformation Multiplier: 1.5x

    Suitable Attribute: Wood

    Physical Attack: 145

    Qi Damage Increase: +30% (Perfect attribute match +14%)

    Forging Material: Ironwood, rare metal

    The next day, the two did not rush to challenge the hard mode of “Braving the World Society.”

    Instead, they made some adjustments based on the experience summarized from the last challenge to address their shortcomings.

    Shu Fuyao practiced a very pure wood attribute internal skill.

    She could choose to cultivate either “Heavenly Wood Force” or “Earthly Wood Force.”

    Usually, practitioners of wood attribute internal skills had a single inner core and could only choose one.

    Either they choose the more powerful “Heavenly Force,” or they choose the less powerful but highly healing “Earthly Force.”

    She couldn’t have the best of both worlds. However, Shu Fuyao had dual inner cores.

    She could completely cultivate both Heavenly and Earthly Forces.

    One inner core specialized in Heavenly Wood Force.

    The other inner core specialized in Earthly Wood Force.

    She could both deal damage and provide healing, having the best of both worlds.
