Chapter 45 The future of the soul beast
The battle between Tang San and Xiao Wu is about to break out.
Unlike the fight with Zhou Qing, Tang San relied on his ghostly movements, jumping left and right with strange body movements, and easily avoided Xiao Wu's punches and kicks.
The battle between the two was more of a chase than a fight.
Tang San ran.
Xiao Wu chased after him.
Until Xiao Wu couldn't bear it anymore, she stopped and yelled, "Why are you running? Isn't your martial spirit Blue Silver Grass? Why can you run so fast?"
"Precisely because it is Blue Silver Grass, it must be able to escape." Tang San's face was full of matter-of-factness. After promising Tang Hao not to expose the Clear Sky Hammer, his apparent development direction could not be a Battle Spirit Master.
Isn't it normal to run away?
Xiao Wu had nothing to say. After all, asking a soul warrior whose martial soul was Blue Silver Grass to fight in close combat with her was indeed a bit too much to ask. But looking at Tang San's height, which was a head taller than her, she felt that his words were completely unconvincing.
“Alright, alright, let’s call it a draw. We’ll compete again later.” Xiao Wu stopped fighting, but her eyes, like pink gemstones, revealed a hint of unwillingness.
Although Xiao Wu, the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast, doesn't know much about humans, she does know some common sense, that is, the mere blue silver grass cannot possibly bring such a speed bonus.
This Tang San, and Zhou Qing who almost caused his spirit rings and spirit bones to explode, are not simple.
"That couldn't be better." Tang San secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he defeated Xiao Wu and became the boss of Dormitory 7, he would probably waste a lot of time communicating with others. He didn't have that much free time at the moment.
"Speaking of which, I'm a little hungry. Do you know where we can eat?" Xiao Wu rubbed her stomach, which was a little painful. It was Zhou Qing who did that. She glared at him fiercely and made up her mind that she would beat him so hard that he would be at a loss for words.
Wang Sheng immediately said, "Everyone, come with me. To celebrate the emergence of three bosses in Dormitory 7, I'll treat you all!"
"Oh yeah!"
The other working students cheered.
On the way to the cafeteria, Zhou Qing walked up to Wang Sheng and asked quietly, "Can you afford it? How about we each pay for our own food?"
"It's ok."
Wang Sheng patted his chest and said in a pretentious manner, "I will graduate next year, and there is a chance that I can reach level ten... After I get a spirit ring with the help of the school teacher, I will join the Notting Guild, become an adventurer, take on quests, and make money."
Tang San also came over and asked: "Regarding the Notting Guild, can you tell us the details?"
“It’s no secret…”
The Notting Guild is a guild jointly run by the Wuhun Branch Hall and the City Lord's Mansion of Notting City. It was originally run by the Wuhun Hall alone, but with the decrease in the number of soul beasts in the surrounding forests and the increase in villages over the past two hundred years, the guild has fewer tasks related to clearing soul beasts, so it has to cooperate with the local City Lord's Mansion in order to obtain more tasks.
Nowadays, their tasks are generally to capture thieves and robbers, or to help soul masters who need soul rings to hunt soul beasts, as well as to serve as temporary patrol members and law enforcement officers in Notting City and the Spirit Hall.
If you do well, you can actually join the Spirit Hall or the City Lord's Mansion. "I heard that this is one of the ways that the City Lord and the Spirit Hall of Notting City recruit talents." After Wang Sheng finished speaking, he took a breath and continued, "Most of the soul masters who join the guild are soul masters who can't continue to study at the Intermediate Soul Master Academy. Although the Spirit Hall will give subsidies before the age of 30, the resources required for soul master training are huge. If you don't want to join a certain force and desire freedom, joining the guild, registering as an adventurer, completing tasks, and getting rewards is a good choice."
"I see." Xiao Wu came over at some point and nodded frequently, "I've decided. I want to be an adventurer in the future!"
Zhou Qing asked: "How to become an adventurer?"
"Proof of having registered as a soul master in the Spirit Hall."
Wang Sheng took out his martial spirit certificate and said to the two, "As long as you have this certificate and a spirit ring and become a formal spirit master, you can go to the guild to register as an adventurer."
Tang San nodded slightly, realizing that if he ran out of money in the future and the subsidies from the Spirit Hall were not enough, he could probably register as an adventurer, accept missions, complete missions, and get paid -
This system is similar to the Tang Sect's system in the previous life. After joining the guild and becoming an adventurer, one is still a free person and is not considered a member of any force.
"Guilds in big cities must be bigger, right?" Xiao Wu asked about this.
"Probably." Wang Sheng was a little uncertain, but nodded.
"The bigger the city, the closer it is to the larger soul beast forest. It develops by relying on the resources of the soul beast forest. The guild has the mission of exploring the types of soul beasts and the scope of the soul beast forest. I heard the teacher say in class that there are many places on the continent that have not been explored in detail by soul masters, and there are still many unknown soul beasts that have not been discovered and recorded. In some remote and vast soul beast gathering places, the adventure guilds there have the mission of hunting and clearing the surrounding soul beasts."
"Hunting soul beasts, is it for their soul rings?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Zhou Qing noticed this, but didn't pay much attention to it.
Tang San was thinking about whether he could go to more remote areas to hunt soul beasts in the future, so as to obtain special materials from the soul beasts to study hidden weapons and soul guides.
"Well, I'm not sure, it should be so." Wang Sheng was not sure.
"In places like ours, soul beasts can no longer be killed indiscriminately, because if we kill one, there will be one less. But it may not be the case in those remote areas." Zhou Qing gave his own explanation, "After all, if humans want to survive, they must squeeze the space of other creatures. Those remote soul beast gathering places that humans have not explored have vast lands. If humans want to survive, they naturally have to expand."
“This is too cruel!”
In those remote areas, adventurers hunt soul beasts not for their soul rings, but to expand their living territory... Xiao Wu cannot accept this.
"But this is the fact. For the sake of our descendants having more land and a more stable life! It's impossible for people to stop having children just for soul beasts, right?" Zhou Qing's words left Xiao Wu unable to refute, and also to confirm Xiao Wu's attitude towards soul beasts. "But there's no need to think so far ahead for now."
"Humph!"
Xiao Wu turned her head away, sulking, but when she arrived at the cafeteria and smelled the aroma of the food, she immediately forgot her unhappiness—
Why do you think so much?
It’s better to fill your stomach first!
Moreover, her purpose of coming to the human world is to find the murderer who killed her mother!
As for the future of soul beasts——
Why would a soft-boned rabbit like her think so much?
Let those super soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest that have occupied her home consider it!
Although she thought so, Xiao Wu still kept the conflict between soul beasts and humans in her heart...
