Qingyun City covers a large area with a population of hundreds of thousands. The martial arts hall is located in the center of the city, and there are many facilities for practicing martial arts, which also occupy a large area.
The purpose of the Martial Palace is to cultivate young warriors, discover outstanding talents, and use them for the court and sect.
Under normal circumstances, students from the Martial Palace will not go out unless they are students who already reside in Qingyun City.
Warriors hold a crucial position in this world, and in fact, there are many ways to make money.
For example, an alchemist is a very profitable profession. When a spiritual medicine worth hundreds of taels reaches the hands of an alchemist, it transforms into a pill and its value doubles several times.
There are also array mages, and various auxiliary cultivation, attack, and defense arrays are also expensive.
Foundry master, a weapon used by crafting warriors, highly sought after by countless martial arts practitioners.
These three professions are undoubtedly the most profitable among warriors, but not everyone can achieve them. Firstly, they are talents, secondly, inheritance, and the guidance and guidance of famous teachers.
As far as Luo Xiu knew, there were also several students from extraordinary families in the martial arts palace who studied alchemy, formations, and casting. Their monthly expenses amounted to tens of thousands of taels, which was astronomical for him.
But besides these three professions, other warriors who want a way out also have a popular profession, Hunter!
There are countless wild and demonic beasts in the deep mountains and rivers. These creatures are naturally strong and blessed, and some of their materials have their own uses and extraordinary value.
The hunting profession also emerged from this.
In addition to hunting wild and demonic beasts, spiritual medicine, precious materials, minerals and other treasures can also be found in the deep mountains and great rivers, which are all good things that alchemists, formation mages, and forge masters need.
There is a Hunter Guild in Qingyun City. To become a junior Hunter, the minimum requirement is to cultivate five levels of body. In the past, Luo Xiu's strength was too weak, so he never considered taking this path.
But in order to improve his cultivation strength faster, the only way he can choose is to become a hunter.
Hunters can accept various tasks from guilds and obtain revenge after completing them. They can also freely team up to go hunting and dispose of the obtained items themselves or sell them to guilds. Some powerful hunters earn no less than those of those three special professions.
The Hunter Guild is located in the bustling city area, which is also the most bustling and bustling area in the entire Qingyun City. On the tall buildings, there is a symbol of a double sword crossing.
Luo Xiu was also here for the first time, and the hall was very spacious. Many warriors were holding swords, with strong qi and blood, and were talking loudly.
"Many experts!"
In Luo Xiu's eyes, the life course of these warriors was fully visible, and through the breath of the life course, he could distinguish the strength of these people.
He discovered a large number of martial artists with eight or nine levels of body refining skills, and here he gathered them one by one. Like him, a kid with five levels of body refining skills, he was just a novice and a martial artist in the Qi Sea realm. Luo Xiu also saw several of them.
At the age of thirteen, Luo Xiu's face still appeared slightly immature, so when he came here, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Haha, kid, look at your delicate skin and tender flesh. This is the Hunter Guild, have you gone to the wrong place?"
A martial artist with nine levels of refinement pointed at Luo Xiu and laughed, wearing a badge with two crossed swords on his chest, which was a symbol of his identity as a hunter.
"I think it should be a student from the Martial Palace who wants to apply for a Hunter badge so that they can show off to other classmates."
"Hehe, isn't it so easy to get the Hunter's badge? I think this kid will definitely fail, maybe even his life will be revealed inside!"
"Not necessarily, maybe this kid can pass?"
"Zhu Laoba, do you want to make a bet?"
Luo Xiu ignored these people, but in this environment, he could feel the boldness, unrestrained, and free spirited nature of being a martial arts practitioner.
Every hunter here lives a life of licking blood on the blade, with a fierce and ominous aura. However, Luo Xiu is not only fearless, but also somewhat eager!
"Perhaps there is a paranoid passion and madness in my bones, perhaps this is the life I truly want!" Luo Xiu clenched his fist and walked towards a counter in the Hunter's Hall.
The receptionist of Luo Xiu was a woman with a graceful figure, with a professional smile on her face. However, when she saw Luo Xiu's immature face, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
But she quickly recovered and smiled, "This little brother, may I ask if there is anything I can help you with?"
"Little brother?" Luo Xiu's expression was slightly awkward, but the issue of age was not something he could control.
"Hello, I would like to apply to become a hunter," Luo Xiu said.
"What?" The receptionist hesitated for a moment, "Little brother, are you sure you want to apply to become a hunter?"
Without hesitation, Luo Xiu nodded and added, "My name is Luo Xiu."
Seeing Luo Xiu's slightly flushed cheeks, the beautiful receptionist couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle lightly, "Okay, Luo Xiu little brother."
"Damn it!" The mischievous reception from the beautiful woman made Luo Xiu roll his eyes uncontrollably< White eyes.
"Haha, I said Shanshan, you won't be interested in this kid, will you?"
"Shanshan is the first beautiful woman in our Qingyun City Hunter Branch. Those who want to pursue her can line up from the south to the north of the city, and from the east to the west of the city. Isn't it because they like the tender grass?"
"Don't, Shanshan. This kid has thin arms and short legs. Where can I be as sturdy and reliable as him?"
Many familiar hunters in the hall joked.
This beautiful woman named Shanshan couldn't help but blush when these guys talked about her reception. She cast a white eye and lifted her vermilion lips lightly, saying, "If you want to become the man of my Jiang Shanshan, wait until you become a four-star hunter."
"Oh my goodness, Four Star Hunter? It seems like I won't have a chance in my life..."
Many hunters pounded their chests and feet, laughing and frolicking.
"Hey, I want to apply to become a hunter!" Luo Xiu patted the table, feeling ignored.
Luo Xiu's actions made the hunters in the hall burst into laughter again.
Jiang Shanshan also looked at Luo Xiu with a smile on her face, and said seriously, "Brother Luo Xiu, applying for a hunter is not a joke. For your personal safety, I hope you can think carefully before making a decision."
"What? Becoming a hunter is very dangerous?" Luo Xiu asked in surprise.
"Haha, this kid is not just a rookie, but also the best among rookies. He doesn't even know the most basic rules."
"Young man, go home and have some milk. Hunters are not easy to be."
From the comments of nearby hunters, Luo Xiu learned that in order to become a hunter, it is not enough just to meet the conditions for cultivation, but also to undergo assessment.
During the assessment process, there may be certain dangers, as there is insufficient strength and courage. Even a martial artist who cultivates seven levels of physical fitness may not be able to pass the assessment.
"I want to participate in the assessment," Luo Xiu said firmly after understanding.
Quiet!
The entire hall of the Hunter Guild suddenly fell silent.
"Kid, don't you have a fever? Ever since a student in the intermediate class of Wudian failed and died in the assessment three years ago, except for some students in the advanced class who have passed the assessment with a physical fitness level of eight or above, don't you understand?"
"Yeah, Luo Xiu, you're still young. You can wait a few years for the assessment," the beautiful receptionist Jiang Shanshan also advised.
This time she didn't address Luo Xiu's little brother, and her expression became even more serious.
And more hunters, on the other hand, have indifferent expressions. They have seen life and death more often and have already become accustomed to it. There are not many truly heartwarming people.
"The hunter's assessment is not about cultivation, but about practical combat ability. You are facing a first level monster, not a wild beast!" Jiang Shanshan advised again.
"I have made up my mind," Luo Xiu's gaze was firm.
"This kid has such backbone, let him give it a try," said a burly man after taking a big sip of wine.
"Zhou Long, shut up, you'll kill him!" Jiang Shanshan glared at the strong man.
"As long as the conditions are met, the guild should have no reason to refuse my assessment application, right?" Luo Xiu tapped the table with his finger. "Besides, are you so sure that I'm going to be assessed and dying?"
"Haha, the young man is quite stubborn, I like him!" The strong man named Zhou Long burst out laughing, "If you pass the assessment, I'll let you join my team!"
"Joke, can a kid who hasn't grown enough hair pass the assessment? If he passes, I'll turn my head off and kick him like a ball!" On the other side, a man with a slightly bearded face sneered.
"Zhou Long, dare you make this bet?" said the man with a slight beard loudly.
"Damn it, Guo Hu, what do you mean?" Zhou Long glared and roared.
In Luo Xiu's perception of the context of life, Zhou Long and Guo Hu Hu's cultivation should both be in a state of Qi Sea. These two individuals clashed over their own assessment issues, which caught him off guard.
But no matter what, becoming a hunter is imperative for Luo Xiu, because whether accepting tasks or buying and selling items in guilds, one must be a hunter.
Under Luo Xiu's repeated insistence, Jiang Shanshan took out several pieces of paper, one of which was a form for applying for assessment, with her corresponding information to be filled in. The other pieces of paper were a contract, which roughly meant that the person applying for assessment would not be responsible for any accidents that occurred during the assessment.
Luo Xiu did not hesitate. He believed that with his own strength, he could definitely pass the assessment. Otherwise, if he could not even pass this level of test, how could he reach a higher level of martial arts in the future?
With a stroke of his pen, Luo Xiu signed his name, and then a receptionist from the Hunter Guild took Luo Xiu to the assessment venue.
"I bet this kid won't pass the assessment!" In the hall, Guo Hu patted the table and shouted, "Zhou Long, dare you bet?"
Both of them have a small team, and they don't usually look at each other eye to eye and often confront each other head-on.
With so many people present, Zhou Long was also a bit angry when he saw his old rival Guo Beard so arrogant. He stood up and kicked the stool away, angrily saying, "I bet you!"
