“…”

While the four youngsters resented Zhang Che that bastard for dragging them down, they started introducing themselves to one another, and as they spoke, they suddenly fell silent.

After their simple introductions, all of them, without exception, realized to their horror that they were a bunch of useless fighters!

Let alone the fact that they were all Tier Two beastmasters, even their beast cards were all below bronze-quality…

This sucked!

Originally, they didn’t care about Zhang Che’s unreliability at all. If that guy decided to give up, so be it. Since they themselves were so weak, there was sure someone within the team was a powerful figure, according to the method the organizers grouped them up with. That person would be a Tier Three beastmaster at the very least, and their subdued beasts wouldn’t be weak, either.

If they were lucky, perhaps that boss figure would even be one of the Tier Four beastmasters!

However, from the looks of it now, that unreliable fellow from earlier was probably the boss figure for this team?

The youngsters exchanged looks with each other, cursing in their hearts at the same time.

-Even if you are the boss, you can’t be this uncooperative, right?

-If you’re this uncooperative, how are we supposed to put down our pride obediently and be your underlings?-

———–

The Fallen Star Bow and Arrow Specialist Store, a very impressive-sounding name, comparable to the Shooting Sun Research Institute from Ci Zhou City!

Speaking of which, perhaps the owners of the two stores were blood brothers?

One of them was called Shooting Sun, the other Fallen Star. Both of them sounded just as impressive!

This was the store Zhang Che found via searching on his personal terminal. It was the best bow specialty store in Jin City.

Well, referring it as a store was a little inappropriate. This store was similar to the Shooting Sun Corporation. Both of them had several floors worth of sales hall. The only difference was that the Fallen Star Bow and Arrow Specialty Store’s research facility wasn’t here. There was only a sales department.

Of course, as one of the satellite cities of Bei Du, this wasn’t the only top tier archery shop operating in Jin City.

Zhang Che chose this shop because he saw a message on the website stating that this store held an ancient-style recurve bow as the gem of the store. It was made using top-grade exotic beast materials, with a draw weight of about eight hundred kilograms.

This really made Zhang Che wonder whether Ci Zhou City’s Shooting Sun and this Fallen Star were sibling companies. Otherwise, why would both stores manufacture such powerful bows that no one was able to use?

However, Zhang Che loved it. Wasn’t this made for him?

Thus, he immediately headed to this Fallen Star Bow and Arrow Specialty Store. After he entered the shop, he asked a staffer straightforwardly, “I heard there’s a prized bow in your shop. Could you bring it out and show me?”

“Sure, sir. Please wait a moment.”

Soon, the legendary eight hundred kilograms draw weight bow was carried out by the staffer. He opened the bow container before Zhang Che.

Zhang Che fell in love with this bow the moment he laid eyes on it.

This ancient-styled recurve bow was black, with golden purple patterns on it. It was obviously crafted with rare woods from the beast world. The bow grips were flat and thin, their color ivory. It seemed to be polished from the bones of some exotic beasts.

Compared to the Falling Star Model X, this bow looked a little weaker, but the sense of strength it gave off assaulted you right in the face, impossible to ignore.

Zhang Che picked the bow up from the container and weighed it in his hands. He realized, to his shock, that it was twice as heavy as the Falling Star Model X!

-Very good. It’s about twenty-five kilograms. It gives off a better feel wielding it!-

“What a great bow. I wonder if it has a name?”

“Sir, this bow is currently unnamed,” the staffer answered respectfully. She had immediately realized that this handsome young man with slight childish qualities to his face was no ordinary man when she saw that Zhang Che was actually able to wield this bow with one hand without effort.

“Oh,” Zhang Che nodded. He asked, “How much for this? I’m buying it.”

However, the staffer replied with a smile, “I’m sorry, sir, our boss has said that this bow is temporarily not for sale.”

Zhang Che was immediately baffled. -Why did you manufacture it if you’re not selling it? Hmm? No, wait… what do you mean, temporarily not for sale? Could someone have ordered this in advance? Why didn’t you say so earlier! You made me feel happy for nothing!-

The staffer probably noticed the displeasure in Zhang Che, and she hurriedly explained, “It’s like this, sir. Our boss said that we’ll only sell the bow to someone who can draw it.”

-Oh, you’re saying I don’t look like I can draw this bow, is that it?-

Zhang Che didn’t say anything. He held the bow handle with his left hand stably, and pinched the bowstring with his right hand. Once he exerted strength, the bow was drawn to a full crescent before the staffer’s astonished gaze.

“A powerful bow, indeed. The arrows fired with this thing will surely contain astonishing destructive power!” Zhang Che nodded in satisfaction. He slowly withdrew his strength, allowing the bowstring to slowly return to neutral.

You mustn’t release an empty bow. Otherwise, you’d cause irreversible damage to the bowstring and bow. Zhang Che was no longer a newbie at archery, so naturally he knew about this.

After that, Zhang Che took out his purple crystal card under the gaze of the staffer, whose eyes were already emitting stars, and spent close to ten million dollars to purchase this powerful bow made using high-tier exotic beast materials and rare wood only found in the beast world. At the same time, he received two hundred and forty V-type armor-piercing arrows as a complimentary gift.

The V-type armor-piercing arrows were priced at the horrifying amount of three thousand dollars each. According to the sales assistant, they could easily pierce through the scales of a defensive three-star gold-quality beast when paired with this super powerful bow!

The amount spent wasn’t a loss at all. The price of a three-star gold-quality beast card ranged in the millions. If he was lucky, he wouldn’t take much time to recover his investment.

“Since it’s bought in Fallen Star Bow and Arrow Specialty Store, I’ll call you Fallen Star from now on, as a sworn brother to the Falling Star Model X.”

Zhang Che, who didn’t have talent in naming things, casually named this bow very irresponsibly, and even randomly made relationships, finding it a brother.

——

A short while after Zhang Che walked out of the Fallen Star specialty store, carrying the bow container and quiver on his back, he received a message from the exam organizers, saying that his new lodgings had been prepared, and his personal effects left in the original hotel would be sent over later.

Now, the organizers were asking for everyone to return to the newly arranged hotel immediately. They weren’t allowed to casually leave the hotel alone from now on. This was to ensure everyone’s safety, and to make sure no one would be late tomorrow morning.

Zhang Che opened up his personal terminal and searched around. To his shock, he discovered that the new lodgings he was assigned were actually not very far away from where he was.

Thus, he couldn’t be bothered taking a car, and just walked his way back. On the way, he also bought a pile of food, munching on it as he walked. By the time he returned to the hotel, his hunger was already satisfied.

They weren’t allowed to go out, and Zhang Che couldn’t be bothered to go shopping, either. He directly headed to the suite assigned to him and his teammates.

Just as he opened the door with the room key card he just received and walked into the suite’s hall, Zhang Che felt the atmosphere was a little strange.

“Big Bro, here, your slippers!” the youngster who took the initiative to strike up a conversation with him earlier brought him a pair of slippers to change into, with a flattering smile on his face.

“Big Bro, let me help you put down your things,” another youngster smiled, trying to help relieve Zhang Che of the bow container and quiver on his back.

“Big Bro, do you want some water? I’ll go get you some…”

“Big Bro, are you hungry? I’ll help you order some food…”
