Chapter 704: Exchange Only, Not for Sale
Chapter 704: Exchange Only, Not for Sale
Zhou Xing was stunned and immediately checked the detailed rules for exchanging Dominator Artifacts.
[Level 1 Exchange Requirement: A Dominator Artifact that is ninety percent new and fully functional can be exchanged directly for a brand-new Dominator Artifact of the same level and grade at ten percent of the market price.]
[Level 2 Exchange: A fully functional Dominator Artifact can be exchanged for a brand-new Dominator Artifact of the same level and grade at twenty percent of the market price.]
[Level 3 Exchange: A functionally damaged but intact Dominator Artifact can be exchanged for a Dominator Artifact of the same Dao Principle at thirty percent of the market price.]
[Level 4 Exchange: A functionally damaged but ninety percent intact Dominator Artifact can be exchanged for a Dominator Artifact at forty percent of the market price.]
[Level 5 Exchange: Two Dominator Artifacts that are eighty percent intact, regardless of functionality, can be exchanged for one brand-new Dominator Artifact.]
[Level 6 Exchange: Four Dominator Artifacts that are fifty percent intact can be exchanged for one new one.]
[Level 7 Exchange: Ten Dominator Artifacts that are thirty percent intact can be exchanged for one new one.]
[Level 8 Exchange: One hundred Dominator Artifacts that are ten percent intact can be exchanged for one Dominator Artifact.]
[Level 9 Exchange: A pile of fragments can be exchanged for one Dominator Artifact.]The detailed rules were extremely thorough. Whether intact or damaged, every Dominator Artifact had exchange value.
Zhou Xing stared at this content, feeling a sense of unreality wash over him.
Especially those damaged ones that had lost all functionality—they were no different from scrap. Refining their raw materials was incredibly difficult, and the cost of refining couldn't even be recouped. Most people simply tossed such things away.
But he was different. He had carefully preserved all these discarded Dominator Artifacts from the past, occasionally taking them out to reminisce about his past battles. Now, looking at this explanation.
He was completely dumbfounded.
He immediately approached the shop.
A puppet clerk walked over.
"Greetings, esteemed customer. May I ask if you would like to exchange a Dominator Artifact?"
"I want to exchange one. How do I proceed?" Zhou Xing said without delay.
"Place the Dominator Artifacts you wish to exchange here for inspection!"
Without hesitation, Zhou Xing withdrew from his body a total of seventeen Dominator Artifacts—some intact, some damaged—and placed them in a box used for inspection.
A flash of light passed by, and some text appeared above the box.
[A total of 17 Dominator Artifacts. Among them, 3 meet Level 1 exchange requirements, 7 meet Level 2 exchange requirements, 1 meets Level 3 exchange requirements, 2 meet Level 4 exchange requirements, and 4 meet Level 6 exchange requirements.]
"Do you have any objections? If not, you may proceed to the shop to purchase the corresponding level of Dominator Artifact for exchange!"
The puppet clerk said coldly and emotionlessly.
With a nervous heart, Zhou Xing walked into the shop. After a while.
He came out, now holding eleven complete Dominator Artifacts in his hands!
He hadn't even spent extra money, using the quota from three of his Dominator Artifacts to offset the required fee.
Staring at these eleven flawless, high-quality Dominator Artifacts, his expression was somewhat dazed.
He looked back at the Seven Stars Shop behind him, and a bold idea emerged in his mind.
He immediately listed all these brand-new Dominator Artifacts for sale. At the same time, he liquidated all his assets and then frantically posted messages online, offering to buy broken Dominator Artifacts—used flying swords, ice blades, colorful towers, cleansing pools, all kinds of Dominator Artifacts, even the shabbiest ones. He started buying them up wildly at twenty to thirty percent above market price.
When people saw Zhou Xing's messages, they naturally didn't hesitate. They sold their damaged Dominator Artifacts—which they had no use for—to Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing had no competitors at all. In no time, he harvested a batch of scrap Dominator Artifacts!
Then he hurried back to this miraculous shop and chose to exchange the Dominator Artifacts.
That same puppet clerk, still emotionless, inspected his materials for him and announced the inspection results.
Zhou Xing immediately rushed into the shop. This time, he didn't bother being picky. He directly grabbed some styles that were easy to sell.
Then he listed these new items for sale at ten percent below market price. They sold incredibly fast.
After recouping his capital, Zhou Xing continued to ramp up the speed of buying scrap Dominator Artifacts.
He went back and forth like this several times.
When he walked out of the shop for the seventh time, he had already exchanged a total of six thousand intact and brand-new Dominator Artifacts.
And as he walked out, he happened to see two cultivators curiously enter the shop.
Zhou Xing realized that this money-making opportunity wouldn't last much longer.
Moreover, he felt that doing this would easily draw jealous eyes.
So, he decided to stop.
With this many Dominator Artifacts, he could cultivate steadily all the way to the sixtieth rank!
Then, he posted this news online and sold it as paid information.
In truth, Zhou Xing's actions had already caught the attention of many people.
During his rapid capital recouping process, he had long been watched, and there were even quite a few people tailing him.
When he posted a paid piece of money-making intelligence online, many people immediately placed orders to buy this information.
Then, the news about the Seven Stars Artificer Pavilion spread at an astonishing speed.
Zhou Xing had barely taken a few dozen steps when a line had already formed behind him at the Seven Stars Artificer Pavilion!
At first, the number of people was small. But within just fifteen minutes, it had grown extremely long. Soon, the line extended out into the street. Many curious people just went ahead and joined the queue.
At the same time, the number of exchange orders for the Seven Stars Artificer Pavilion online skyrocketed.
Online exchanges were far more casual than in-person ones. You simply sent your old Dominator Artifact to the shop, and the shop would randomly issue a Dominator Artifact of the same level, with a certain delay. Many people worried there might be tricks involved, so they planned to wait and see first. But since in-person exchanges were instant, things blew up immediately.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! There's a Dominator Artifact giveaway here! Get in line!"
"What? A free Dominator Artifact event? Hurry up, count me in!"
The line grew longer and longer.
Meanwhile, on many other streets, people started going door to door, offering money to buy broken Dominator Artifacts. This immediately drew a crowd.
"How strange. In this day and age, someone's paying money for junk? There must be something shady going on. Let me check the forums!"
Many people casually sold off their broken Dominator Artifacts, but even more people began digging into the reason behind it.
Thus, the situation at the Seven Stars Artificer Pavilion spread like a virus.
More and more people came to exchange.
Li Long, President of the Artificer Association, stared at this scene, utterly dumbfounded.
He anxiously contacted Su Yuan.
"Master Seven Stars, your shop has exploded in popularity! Too many people are coming to exchange Dominator Artifacts. Should you limit the number of people? If the people at the back can't exchange their Dominator Artifacts, there will be a riot!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan said calmly, "No worries. I can handle such a small scene. I can afford to exchange even tens of millions of Dominator Artifacts!"
He didn't say one thing—he had already refurbished all the old, broken Dominator Artifacts in storage from the Second Frontline back home. A total of ten thousand trillion-level warehouses. He couldn't exchange them all. He simply couldn't exchange them all!
