Nameless Nie nodded. "That's right. Don't underestimate Old Pal Shen. He's one of the few SSS-rank mercenaries at Scarlet Flames Academy!"
"Three-S-rank?" Ye Wanwan was surprised and started reevaluating Eldest Young Master Shen.
Three-S-rank mercenaries were considered the peak of martial strength. In the Independent State, unless they encountered a top-level boss, they could basically do whatever they wanted.
Some top-level Three-S-rank mercenaries could even solo the Independent State's top-level bosses and defeat them. Of course, Piece of Sh * t, Yi Shuihan, was the only exception in the entire Independent State.
Ye Wanwan couldn't help but be confused. Didn't they say the Shen family only focused on business and didn't value martial strength …? Eldest Young Master Shen was actually a top-level Three-S-rank mercenary student at Scarlet Flames Academy?!
Ye Wanwan truly had a whole new level of respect for Eldest Young Master Shen now.
"Eh, what did I tell you? Don't call me Senior Brother Shen! Call me by my mercenary code name!" Eldest Young Master Shen furrowed his brows.
The 3S-rank mercenary was startled before frantically nodding. "Yes … Senior Brother Grim Reaper, I made a mistake."
Every mercenary who reached a certain rank wouldn't use their own name and would use their code names instead.
For example, Nameless Nie. Although very few people in the Independent State knew Nameless Nie's name, his code name would reverberate like thunder in the ears of the entire Independent State. However, Ye Wanwan didn't know what Nameless Nie's code name was.
"Grim … Grim Reaper?!" Ye Wanwan's lips parted as she looked at Eldest Young Master Shen incredulously.
She previously heard an elder from the Fearless Alliance mention that the 3S-rank mercenary student at Scarlet Flames Academy had the code name Grim Reaper and once ran amuck without obstruction in the Independent State … His martial strength was monstrous!
Ye Wanwan never would've expected Eldest Young Master Shen to be a 3S-rank mercenary student at Scarlet Flames Academy. Grim Reaper …
"You're Grim Reaper?" Ye Wanwan looked at Eldest Young Master Shen with adoration.
"The real deal." Eldest Young Master Shen smiled faintly.
Before Ye Wanwan could continue adoring him, Nameless Nie quietly whispered in her ear, "Old Pal Shen bought this with money …"
"Bought it?" Ye Wanwan was bewildered. What did he mean?
"Ahem …" Nameless Nie was a bit embarrassed and quietly explained to Ye Wanwan, "Eh … Two years ago, Old Pal Shen found Scarlet Flames Academy's Grim Reaper and used a large sum of money to buy his code name, so … from a copyright perspective, Grim Reaper is Old Pal Shen …"
Ye Wanwan was dumbfounded. There's a freaking operation like this?! Codenames can be bought?!
"Money makes the world go round … You have to understand this logic." Nameless Nie chuckled.
"Then Great Young Master Shen couldn't have bought his SSS mercenary rank, right?" Ye Wanwan asked.
"Oh … then he definitely didn't buy it." Nameless Nie hastily shook his head. "Mercenary ranks are based on contribution points. Younger Brother Shen contributed a lot of weapons to Scarlet Flames Academy, renovated the entire academy, and built hundreds of luxurious dorms … He contributed a lot to Scarlet Flames Academy, so he used his contribution points to get into the ranks of SSS mercenaries …"
Ye Wanwan: "…" Didn't he freaking buy it?!
"Don't look down on Young Master Shen. Young Master Shen completely meets the requirements of a 3S-rank mercenary and completed Scarlet Flames' most difficult missions multiple times!" Nameless Nie said.
"For example?" Ye Wanwan didn't understand.
"I remember one of the missions was to rob something from Asura in Prison … Think about it, which normal mercenary would dare to rob something from Asura? However, Younger Pal Shen dared and robbed something from Asura by himself." Nameless Nie gave her a thumbs up.
"And then?" Ye Wanwan was incredulous. Asura let it go just like that?
"And then … Younger Pal Shen gave Asura several tens of millions of dollars and the matter was dropped …" Nameless Nie replied.
Ye Wanwan: "…"
Sure, that's very nouveau riche …
