"Rearing Gu?"
Hearing Baldy Qin's analogy, the elites present felt uncomfortable. They were all outstanding figures from all over the world, but upon coming to the Divine wilderness, the first thing they had to face was the outcome of being cannon fodder.
By gathering so many of them, it was to let them kill each other, eliminating the weak and deciding the true Gu King!
Baldy Qin said, "Only the strong person who emerges from the circle of the strong will be the true king. The circle determines your future results, so you are all competitors! The peerless experts of the human race have stepped on countless geniuses to climb to the peak of martial arts! "
"A million people can't produce a sage. For the Tai Ah Divine City to produce a sage, how many young elites must be stepped on? The Tai Ah Divine City gives everyone the same conditions. It all depends on yourself. Whether you become a peerless expert or be stepped on as a stepping stone. "
Baldy Qin did not hide his words.
When the young elites heard this, they had mixed feelings.
A general's success was built on the bones of thousands. No one wanted to be a stepping stone for others to climb up.
At that moment, many of the youths felt a strong sense of danger in their hearts.
Whether it was the temptation of the Wilderness Divine Hall, the desire to make a name for themselves, or this great sense of danger, they all spurred them on to climb up.
People were never satisfied. Many of the young elites present came from pretty good family clans. They had come to the mysterious Tai Ah Divine City to cultivate, so they looked glamorous on the outside.
But only they knew what kind of pressure they were shouldering.
Amongst them, some faced the cruel competition from their family clans. Some of them shouldered the heavy responsibility of their family's prosperity, so how could they be cannon fodder? They faced the pressure. Actually, they were not any weaker than Lian Chengyu before the Kingdom's selection.
The young elites from all over the Kingdom deliberated over the ways to earn dragon scale runes. It seemed like they could only do odd jobs honestly. From what they had seen in the Tai Ah Divine City, they knew that there was always someone better out there. They did not excel in any aspect, so they had to start from zero.
"There are more than ten types of odd jobs. There is no fixed remuneration. How much you get depends on your own ability! But in general, there are still some odd jobs. It is easier to get higher remuneration. I'll start from the highest to the lowest! "
"The highest is to be a sparring partner! Some veteran trial-takers will find sparring partners when they cultivate. You just need to wear armor and protective gear and be their sparring partner. If you persist for a certain period of time, you will be able to receive the corresponding dragon scale runes if you have the ability. If he took on some missions with rich clients, the rewards would be considerable. Of course, it would also be easier for him to get hurt. It's very possible that he might end up lying in bed for ten days to half a month. "
Sparring partner? Wouldn't that make him a live target for others?
Most of these young elites were proud and arrogant. If it was in the past, they wouldn't have been able to do anything. This kind of shameful matter was something they couldn't accept. However, after hearing Baldy Qin's words, they couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. On top of that, he had suffered setbacks during training. However, they didn't care. They were already so weak, so what qualifications did they have to talk about dignity? Besides, being a live target was better than being cannon fodder.
If you want to become strong, you must first endure humiliation and learn to take a beating!
"The second highest is blacksmithing! You don't have the ability to refine weapons, but it doesn't matter. In the refining process of some weapons, you need to forge some special metals, using a forging hammer to forge them over a million times! If you think you have extraordinary strength, you can take on such a mission! "
"The third is to patrol the city walls, maintaining the ballistae on the city walls! This is a job with high requirements. You need to have knowledge of arrays. "
"The above three are considered to have high rewards. The following are more ordinary, such as standing guard at the school grounds or the city gates."
"Then there's guarding the spiritual beasts and beasts reared in the Tai Ah Divine City's beast enclosure, picking herbs down the mountains, managing the distribution of daily necessities etc. The last few are usually done by female students."
Baldy Qin introduced them one by one. When the youths heard this, they all felt that the first three were more reliable.
The first was to be a live target. Although it didn't sound good, as a sparring partner with an expert, they could learn their opponent's attack techniques. By constantly dodging and taking a beating, they could accumulate experience sparring with an expert. Furthermore, the rewards were high, so it was no doubt the most suitable job.
"I'll apply for the first one!"
"I'll also apply for the first one, sparring partner!"
The youths present all expressed their opinions. Baldy Qin had a good memory, so he immediately remembered who had applied for what job.
"I'll apply for the second one, blacksmithing! My strength isn't small. If I hit it a few hundred thousand times, I can train my strength! When that happens, I'll insert forty to fifty Primal Arrows into the purple tungsten wall. I don't believe it! "
Zhou Kui rolled up his sleeves and said in a low muffled voice. He was full of energy and wanted to achieve something. This short day had given Zhou Kui too much stimulation!
"I'll apply for the first one … sparring partner." Song Zijun said. He could feel the pressure from this group of people. These people were said by Baldy Qin to be weak, but compared to Song Zijun, more than half of them were stronger than Song Zijun!
Even as a servant, they had to face cruel competition!
After saying his decision, Song Zijun looked at Yi Yun. Baldy Qin also looked at Yi Yun.
Up until now, Yi Yun's performance was the most outstanding.
Although it was not enough to amaze Baldy Qin, Baldy Qin believed that after six years of nurturing, Yi Yun would definitely shine. Yi Yun's ranking might not be able to enter the top 1000 in a year, but there was a high chance of him entering the top 1000 in three years.
Baldy Qin also hoped that he could nurture a talent.
After some thought, Yi Yun smiled and said, "I'll apply … Well, I'll apply for herb-picking …"
Yi Yun's nonchalant words stunned all the young elites present.
Herb-Picking?
Baldy Qin also frowned slightly. Over the years, he had received new students, but there were very few who applied for herb-picking. Even if there were, they were girls.
After all, girls could only be sparring partners for girls. If there were too many sparring partners for boys, and they could not receive any sparring partner missions, they could still be blacksmithing. But it was not suitable for girls to be blacksmithing. Patrolling the city walls and maintaining the ballistae was not something any girl could do.
Hence, girls who could not be sparring partners could only pick herbs, look after spirit beasts or distribute supplies.
But Yi Yun, who Baldy Qin thought had a good future, why would he pick herbs?
As for the other young heroes, the way they looked at Yi Yun was even weirder.
'Isn't this guy pretty awesome?'
With his skills, be it sparring partner or blacksmithing, he wouldn't be bad. Why would he pick herbs?
Could it be that he got to know a few girls while picking herbs, and tricked them into giving themselves to him? He might even push them down on the herb mountain while picking herbs, and have sex with them?
Many people had malicious thoughts. If not, why would he jump into the group of girls?
"Pick herbs? Are you sure? "Baldy Qin looked deeply at Yi Yun, hoping that Yi Yun would change his mind.
"Yes! I'm sure. "Yi Yun nodded.
Baldy Qin squinted his eyes, as if he wanted to see something from Yi Yun.
"Tonight, I will submit the name list. Once it is noted, it cannot be changed for three months. Picking herbs is not only slow in earning dragon scale runes, it also does not help in training your strength. I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you want to pick herbs?"
"I'm sure!" Yi Yun answered calmly and firmly.
The surrounding people were speechless hearing this. Baldy Qin had said so much because he admired Yi Yun, but Yi Yun did not appreciate it.
Instructor Qin frowned. In the end, he shook his head. The decision was in the cultivator's hands. He would not interfere. Since Yi Yun had made up his mind, he could not do anything about it.
"Alright! I'll submit the herb-picking job for you. I'll give you a word of advice. In the Tai Ah Divine City, people who are slightly outstanding are nothing. If you're not careful, you might be drowned in the sea of people, never to be found again. "
"There are many good seedlings among the two thousand plus newcomers this time. The hundred of you I've brought are all from the Jing Prefecture and a few small prefectures in the southeastern region of the Jing Prefecture. Compared to the Central Prefecture, the Imperial City, and the people directly recommended by the reclusive families, you are still lacking a lot."
"You probably don't know, but one day ago, there was also a new boy nicknamed 'Qiu Niu' who stuck seven Primal Arrows into the purple tungsten wall in one breath. He comes from a hidden family!"
"And two days ago, in the Wilderness Divine Hall, there was a girl from the imperial city. She faced the primordial species sculpture and gained some insight into the nomological truth! This girl's name is Chu Xiaoran. She is the beloved daughter of the Tai Ah Kingdom's Guardian Duke! "
Instructor Qin's words made everyone's eyelids twitch.
The beloved daughter of the Guardian Duke …
A genius youth from a reclusive family clan …
The Guardian Duke was a duke of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. A duke, and a duke with the word "Guardian" as his title, could be said to be an extremely high official!
As for the reclusive family clans, they were even more terrifying.
In the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, there were some large family clans with unimaginable heritage. They could even be compared to the royal family.
Some of these family clans had a longer history than the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. They had been established since the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's previous dynasty, or even the previous dynasty's previous dynasty.
There were also some family clans that helped the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's founding Divine wilderness to conquer the Tai Ah Kingdom. Later on, the founding Divine Emperor bestowed the Divine Kingdom with nine large states as their permanent fiefdoms.
These family clans had been connected by marriage for generations with the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's royal family. There was an inseparable relationship between them. It could be said that these family clans were the reason why the Tai Ah royal family was able to stand tall for so many years!
As these family clans were too aloof, normal people could not come into contact with them. That was why people called them reclusive family clans, not because they were really reclusive.
As for Zhou Kui and company, they too came from large family clans. Their family clans came from the Jing state and a few smaller states nearby. But those families usually only occupied a county in a state.
A county level family clan could not be compared to a Divine Kingdom level reclusive family clan.
