Listening to Zeng Jian's words, Yi Tianchen merely let out a cold laugh.
He could never have imagined that at this moment, Yi Tianchen had already mastered the incredible Identification Technique. With just a wave of his hand, he could make the treasures covered in dust shine with their former glory.
The Identification Technique is divided into four levels: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and ultimate.
The beginner Identification Technique can identify three grades of equipment: Bronze items, Fine Iron Weapons, and Dark Iron Equipment.
The intermediate Identification Technique can identify the previous three as well as Silver Equipment and Golden Equipment.
The advanced Identification Technique can identify the five aforementioned types along with Dark Gold Equipment and Purple Gold Equipment.
The ultimate Identification Technique can identify all equipment, including spiritual tools, Celestial Artifacts, and divine artifacts.
As he comprehended the Identification Technique, Yi Tianchen also understood its grading system clearly. Moreover, at this stage, the probability of encountering high-grade equipment was still relatively low.
Furthermore, in case of such unpredictable events, Yi Tianchen had a "universal move" up his sleeve: he would hold up the equipment and rush to the back room, shouting, "Master, Master! There are treasures here that I cannot identify!"
Under the watchful eyes of several people, Yi Tianchen's gaze darkened as he shouted loudly, "By the command of the law, may Guanyin Bodhisattva reveal her divine power—open!"
System prompt: You have successfully used the Identification Technique; skill proficiency +1!
Hearing this prompt, Yi Tianchen finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, to everyone else, it appeared entirely different. As the Identification Technique was cast, a white light descended and quickly enveloped the shoes. Following a moment of brewing, a brilliant blue light suddenly erupted from the shoes.
"Is it really a Fine Iron Weapon?!"
Yi Tianchen's heart skipped a beat; he couldn't believe it was indeed a small exquisite item. For a moment, he felt quite proud—his first attempt had yielded a Fine Iron Weapon; it was certainly memorable!
With the emergence of the blue light, Zeng Jian and the others were left utterly stunned. They had initially come with the mindset of watching Yi Tianchen make a fool of himself but never expected him to perform so brilliantly. They were left wondering where he had learned that incantation.
"Haha! A Fine Iron Weapon! It really is a Fine Iron Weapon!" The newcomer couldn't help but laugh wildly as he tightly held onto the shoes as if cradling the entire world. He looked at Yi Tianchen and said, "Sir, you truly are my hero; you're amazing!"
Yi Tianchen's lips twitched; he felt like slapping the guy in front of him. Damn, that sounded like an insult!
"Next!" He shot a glare at the player and said expressionlessly.
Soon, amidst the astonished expressions of Zeng Jian and the others, another player rushed up holding a piece of clothing. Yi Tianchen smiled and held up five fingers. "5 Silver Coins!"
After witnessing the previous scene, the player didn't hesitate and promptly handed over 5 Silver Coins. Yi Tianchen nodded, appreciating the player's decisiveness. With a wave of his hand, green light flickered as he identified another item.
"Wow, a Bronze item isn't bad either. Next!" Yi Tianchen glanced at it and confidently secured another 5 Silver Coins.
In less than three minutes, everything was wrapped up. The Identification Center was left with only Yi Tianchen and Zeng Jian's group. During this time, Yi Tianchen had earned a total of 45 Silver Coins—a substantial windfall!
"Hey, do you guys want to identify anything? I really need to clock out!" Looking at Zeng Jian and the others, who were still in shock, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
"Damn, this kid really can identify items!" King's Eternal exclaimed incredulously.
After a moment of silence and hesitation, Zeng Jian stepped forward and tossed his equipment onto the counter. Although Yi Tianchen could access the equipment due to the System's special settings, he couldn't claim it as his own. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the hat dropped by the Cunning Ring Serpent King.
Glancing at it lazily, Yi Tianchen said, "Identification fee: 20 Silver Coins!"
"2... 20 Silver Coins?"
Zeng Jian stared at Yi Tianchen in disbelief, ready to explode when King's Eternal kindly reminded him, "President, the higher the identification fee, the higher the item's grade!"
Upon hearing this, Zeng Jian paused for a moment before gritting his teeth. "Fine! 20 Silver Coins it is! Just identify it already!"
Seeing Zeng Jian throw down a hefty 20 Silver Coins without hesitation made Yi Tianchen's heart skip a beat. How many times had they robbed others to get this much? However, they didn't realize that this so-called 20 Silver Coin identification fee was just a figure Yi Tianchen pulled out of thin air.
After pocketing all 20 Silver Coins, Yi Tianchen activated his Identification Technique. To everyone's astonishment, as the white light faded away, it revealed a layer of green light instead.
"Green... green..." In an instant, everyone's faces turned extremely grim. Zeng Jian couldn't help but point at Yi Tianchen and roar, "Damn it, you little brat! A green hat, and you charge me 20 Silver Coins! Are you robbing me?"
Seeing Zeng Jian's furious expression, a hint of smugness welled up in Yi Tianchen's heart, especially when he noticed the hat glowing green, nearly causing him to burst into laughter.
However, this couldn't really be blamed on Yi Tianchen. Although he had learned the Identification Technique, he was still a beginner and couldn't identify the grade of equipment like an Appraiser could. As for the 20 Silver Coins, Yi Tianchen simply wanted to make things difficult for Zeng Jian.
But unexpectedly, a single sentence from King's Eternal made Zeng Jian immediately throw out 20 Silver Coins without hesitation!
"Yi Tianchen, you'd better refund my money; otherwise, I won't let you off the hook. I'm going to complain to Dream Game Company about you; I'm going to get your account banned!" Zeng Jian glared at Yi Tianchen, trembling with rage, his chest heaving as he truly looked like he was about to explode.
Yi Tianchen smiled slightly and replied leisurely, "I'm just running an open business here; if you want to play, then play. May I ask... on what grounds do you intend to complain about me?"
"Yi Tianchen, you must know the power of the King. Do you really want to go against him? What good would that do for you?" Overlord Batyen interjected sternly. "Aren't we all here in the game for wealth? As long as you align with the King, the President will ensure a bright future for you!"
Yi Tianchen's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. He didn't expect Overlord Batyen to say something like this at such a moment. But upon reflection, it made sense. Zeng Jian had always believed that money could solve everything—a typical executor of the "money can make the devil push a millstone" principle.
"I'm sorry; while money is a good thing, I haven't reached the point where I'd sell myself for it!" Yi Tianchen smiled slightly, his words ringing clear. "If there's nothing else, please leave!"
"Yi Tianchen, you're too arrogant!" When Zeng Jian heard Overlord Batyen's words, he had briefly considered letting bygones be bygones with Yi Tianchen. But now seeing him remain unfazed only reignited his pent-up anger. He shouted, "You just wait! I don't believe you won't come out of the Identification Center! Let's go!"
After throwing down that harsh remark, several people followed Zeng Jian out of the Identification Center. Yi Tianchen frowned slightly and looked towards the entrance of the Identification Center. He could already see a dozen players gathered at the door, each with the emblem of King's Studio floating on their right arm.
Not wanting to dwell further on it and seizing the moment when no one was around, Yi Tianchen directly pulled out the sword from his inventory. Without any unnecessary flair, he cast Identification Technique on it. After a flash of white light, a deep blue glow suddenly burst forth, leaving Yi Tianchen utterly astonished.
"Deep blue? It's actually Dark Iron Equipment?!" Looking at the long sword that had been identified before him, Yi Tianchen was shocked. An Iron Grade BOSS dropping Dark Iron Equipment was truly a stroke of luck!

"Wow, this attribute is really impressive!"
Upon seeing the specific attributes of the Serpent Shadow Sword, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel delighted. Without a second thought, he equipped it and swung it casually. Instantly, several deep blue light trails flashed before him; he finally had a truly suitable weapon.
Opening his character attributes, Yi Tianchen found himself momentarily stunned—

...
"An attack cap of 114? That's so strong?"
Looking at his new attribute data, Yi Tianchen felt a bit incredulous.
However, what Yi Tianchen should focus on right now was how to leave the Identification Center as soon as possible, so he could level up to level 10 and then go to the city to change jobs and learn various powerful skills.
Life without skills was indeed quite difficult!
He glanced once more at the entrance of the Identification Center and then checked the time; it was already past six in the evening. Suddenly, Yi Tianchen remembered that Liu Yuhan had mentioned before he logged in that the studio would start dinner around seven.
