The vendor had likely grown tired of all the questions. These sellers weren't true merchants; for them, patiently hyping up their own goods was already a stretch. Too many people asked questions without buying—a situation that would annoy even a real merchant, let alone a Martial Artist.
So, upon hearing Ling Xiao speak, the vendor replied without even lifting his gaze, "Let me be clear. One Tier Five Magic Beast Crystal Core. The price is firm. If you can't accept that, then please—" THWAP! Before the man could finish, Ling Xiao had tossed over a gleaming Magic Beast Crystal Core. Judging by its size and the energy fluctuations it emitted, it was clearly Tier Four or higher!
"Can I see it now?" Ling Xiao said with a slight, arrogant curl of his lip. "If it checks out, the Crystal Core is yours."
"Yes, of course!"
