Chapter 90 Most Adventurers Are Unmarried
"And Sisi's words..."
Speaking of Sisi, Su Yuntao sighed and said faintly, "She didn't really join the Spirit Hall. The reason you saw her in the Spirit Hall was because she came here to collect the Spirit Master subsidy."
"Master Su Yuntao, why are you so fond of such a self-deprecating woman?"
Xiao Wu also talked about her time in the Adventure Guild, where she had heard adventurers talk about things between men and women. Those adventurers were very casual, saying that if you were unfaithful once, you would never have to worry about it again...
She thought it made a lot of sense.
"I say, is there a possibility that it is because those adventurers have not yet started a family?" Zhou Qing had reason to doubt that the only possibility that allowed those adventurers to speak so easily was that they were still single and their minds could remain in the most rational state.
Once you really fall in love, it is relatively normal to behave like Su Yuntao.
Infidelity is indeed despised by people.
But staying sane—
This is and can only be the perspective of a bystander. The "authorities" who were betrayed were truly moved and "fascinated" by it, unable to extricate themselves.
If a bystander can still remain so clear-headed after becoming an insider, then there is no question of affection or love, because this is treating having a boyfriend or girlfriend as a game, or even just a transaction.
The only people who can truly remain sober emotionally are those who have just broken up.
"Ah? Are they all single? I see many of them are almost thirty years old." Xiao Wu was surprised.
"If they really want to start a family, why would they have so much time to drink in the guild? And stay there for a whole morning or afternoon? They must want to take on more missions and earn more money so that their wives, children, and daughters can have a better life."
Zhou Qing knows how much pressure there is after starting a family.
Especially for most civilian soul masters in the Adventure Guild, the reward they receive for completing a task may be more than what ordinary people earn in a year.
But the expenses required for a soul master to practice are also very high.
Tang San also agreed with Zhou Qing's point of view.
Su Yuntao opened his mouth, wondering why the three little guys were talking about whether the adventurers in the Adventurer's Guild were married or not.
However, he had to bear it. Chatting with the three little guys could easily divert his attention, so he did feel a lot more relaxed.
"Sisi and I came from the same village, and that's how we met, so I wanted to take better care of her... Forget it, let's not talk about this, what level of soul power have you reached?"
Su Yuntao asked about the soul power levels of Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu.
"fifteen."
"fourteen."
"Thirteen."
Listening to the numbers reported by the three people, Su Yuntao widened his eyes, scratched his ears, and suspected that he had heard it wrong.
After confirming it again and again, he hesitantly said, "Really...really, I don't know what to say to you guys."
I just got the soul ring, and my soul power level has increased so much...
Could it be that I really made a mistake?
Su Yuntao beat his chest and stamped his feet!
If I had brought Zhou Qing and Tang San back to Notting City, I might have been able to save three years and directly become the new branch hall master in reserve. Sisi might have looked at me with admiration and would no longer have contact with the city lord. Perhaps I wouldn't need to be so sad.
If Zhou Qing knew what Su Yuntao was thinking, he would nod affirmatively, because if he really did that at the time, Tang Hao would definitely smash him into a pulp with a hammer without any explanation - and he would not be sad anymore. "But luckily, we all got the Hundred Year Spirit Rings that are very suitable for us." Zhou Qing said modestly.
"Yes."
Tang San nodded vigorously. He was very satisfied with the effect of the soul skill "Life Accumulation".
Xiao Wu···
She herself felt that the waist bow skill was quite good. As a soft-bone rabbit, the waist bow soul skill could bring out her racial talents to the greatest extent. In the future, with more training on soft skills, her transformed human skeleton would be closer to her original body. It could be regarded as a means to strengthen the power of soul skills without increasing the age of soul rings.
"The first spirit ring is a hundred years old, it's really amazing. When I graduated from Notting College, the first spirit ring chosen for me by my team leader was from a sixty-year-old lone wolf. In fact, I feel that I can withstand the hundred-year level with my first spirit ring.
But there are no hundred-year-old wolf-type soul beasts in Notting Forest, because before me, there were many soul masters with wolf-type martial souls, and the hundred-year-old wolf-type soul beasts had already been hunted down.
As for other beasts, tigers and leopards are too fierce, and the teachers leading the team usually won’t take the risk...”
Su Yuntao talked about the past.
Zhou Qing could actually understand this.
In the original novel, Yu Xiaogang faced a 400-year-old mandrake snake. He did not dare to confront it head-on and could only choose to escape.
Although Yu Xiaogang's martial soul mutated into a pig-like appearance, he was also from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and must have learned physical skills. He also traveled around the continent with Liu Erlong and Flanders for a period of time, so he is well-informed. His actual combat ability should be stronger than that of ordinary civilian soul masters with ordinary martial souls.
No matter how much one belittles his strength, he is still a level 29 great soul master.
Even though the combat capability is poor, the soul power level is there.
But if he in the original novel didn't have Tang San's mysterious tracking and hidden weapon throwing, it would only be a matter of time before he became the meal of the Mandragora Snake.
The Mandragora Snake is not a top-grade soul beast except for its hard scales and poison.
The same is true for tiger soul beasts.
In this way, it is not difficult to imagine why the first soul ring of other civilian soul masters is mostly white.
In addition to being safer during absorption, it is also to ensure the safety of those who help hunt soul beasts.
Especially the teachers in junior colleges, they basically seldom fight and are only responsible for imparting the basic knowledge of the soul master world to students.
Therefore, when helping students hunt soul beasts, they naturally would not go to the trouble of looking for soul beasts that are more than a hundred years old.
The fact that Xiao Chenyu, the son of the city lord, has a white first soul ring is enough to prove that no matter how arrogant Xiao Chenyu is, he is still the son of the city lord. Logically, the teacher in charge of Notting Academy should give him some face. But the actual situation is: the risk of hunting a hundred-year-old soul beast is too great. Even a great soul master may suffer a setback. Life is more important than face.
and so--
So what if he is the city lord’s son?
It is better to choose the soul ring of a ten-year-old soul beast.
"Here we are."
Arriving in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhou Qing looked up and sized up the five-meter-high gate, marveling at the luxury of the wealthy family. He took out the mission paper and handed it to the guard at the gate, saying, "We are adventurers from the Notting Guild, and we have accepted the mission to train with the young master of your mansion."
The guard took the task paper, checked it carefully, confirmed it was correct, and then looked at Su Yuntao with dark circles under his eyes and said, "Please wait a moment, I will go in to report."
