The night bazaar of White River City had been organized to allow players to conduct business with each other.
Due to Dark Star's incessant advertising, the bazaar today had grown lively. Many Guilds had collected a large amount of Hard Stones and Coins to purchase the Advanced Whetstones from Dark Star.
Players busied themselves with setting up stalls throughout the plaza where the bazaar would occur.
As one had to pay a steep processing fee to use the services of the Auction House, many players had opted to sell their accumulated loot today instead.
Meanwhile, of the many stalls set up at this plaza, the most attention-grabbing one belonged to Dark Star, as there were several hundred players currently lined up before Dark Star's stall. Seeing this, Lone Tyrant's heart fluttered with joy. By the time tomorrow arrived, Dark Star would become the wealthiest Guild in White River City, and very soon, they would even surpass the Starstreak Trading Firm. They would become the possessor of White River City's economic lifeline.
At that time, even Ouroboros would not be a match for Dark Star!

Half an hour after the bazaar started, something odd happened.
This incident caused plenty of Guilds to grow sluggish in their thoughts, and even Lone Tyrant was utterly dumbfounded.
"Can someone tell me just what has happened here?!" Lone Tyrant bellowed, pointing towards the empty plaza.
"Boss, I made some inquiries just now and found out that the Starstreak Trading Firm has similarly reduced the prices of their items. Aside from having the same prices as we do, they have also released a new product. I hear that the product is a Basic Mana Armor Kit made by Black Flame. As long as one binds this Armor Kit to their equipment, they will receive a great improvement to their Attributes and Defense. If a player binds three pieces to their equipment, then it would be the equivalent of having an additional top-tier Mysterious-Iron ranked breastplate."
"However, Starstreak has limited the sales of the Armor Kit to 50 each day. So, everyone went to queue up for the item instead."
"Black Flame? Isn't that the Chief Forger of Star-Moon Kingdom? Why would he work with the Starstreak Trading Firm?" Lone Tyrant's brows wrinkled. He had also heard rumors about Black Flame. However, the man was simply too mysterious, so nobody had a concrete idea which major power stood behind him. The public only knew that there was a deeply hidden major power supporting Black Flame.
"So what if he is the Chief Forger?" Lone Tyrant sneered, "Since Black Flame can create such a good item, we only need to make it as well. Immediately investigate the Basic Mana Armor Kit; find out where we can get the Forging Design. I truly wish to thank Black Flame for giving us this great business opportunity."
"Boss is the best! I'll investigate it immediately!"

Meanwhile, at the Starstreak Trading Firm, there was already a sea of people lining up outside the building.
"Selling one stack of Hard Stones for a low price! Come over here if you are interested!"
"Level 10 Bronze Axe for 30 Silver Coins!"
"Buying Silver Coins for a high price! I'll take as much as you have!"
