Chapter 69 Protection Fee, Qingyun Trial!

"Monthly payment? What monthly payment?"

Luo Cheng was even more surprised when he looked at the frightened handyman disciples kneeling on the ground.

The young man was fourteen or fifteen years old and was thin. Seeing that Luo Cheng did not agree, he was so anxious that he almost cried and choked with sobs:

"Senior Brother Luo Cheng, please give me a few more days of grace. I will definitely find a way to make up for my monthly payment!"

A handyman disciple next to him couldn't help but said: "Brother Luo Cheng, something unexpected happened at Junior Brother Yu's home. The village where he lived was attacked by horse bandits, and his mother was in critical condition. That's why I sent this month's Vitality Pill back. Return it. Please forgive me, Senior Brother Luo Cheng, for a few days."

Luo Cheng looked at Zhang Lian beside him.

Zhang Lian pulled Luo Cheng aside and said, "You should know that our handyman disciples can receive a certain number of vitality pills every month based on their cultivation level."

"Physical Tempering Realm warriors can receive three Vitality Pills every month. Mortal Transformation Realm warriors can receive anywhere from four to nine."

Luo Cheng nodded.

He saw all this in Xuanyuan Lu.

"What about the monthly payment? There is no such thing in Xuanyuanlu."

"Of course it won't be in Xuanyuanlu."

Zhang Lian showed a wry smile, looked around, and whispered: "The so-called monthly payment is the first payment that the handyman disciples need to pay to the superiors every month. You can just understand it as a protection fee."

Luo Cheng was quite surprised: "Protection money? Who should I give it to?"

Zhang Lian pointed upward: "Of course they are the people above. Li Hui used to be responsible for this, and then handed the first payment of each month to Elder He. As for whether there is anyone behind Elder He, I don't know. ”

Luo Cheng frowned: "There is such a thing!"

Zhang Lian chuckled: "Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Think about it, even if each of the hundreds of thousands of handyman disciples in the outer sect is only exploited for one vitality pill, that is still a huge fortune!"

"Wealth and silk touch people's hearts, and practitioners are not saints, so naturally it is the same..."

Shaking his head, Zhang Lian glanced at the disciple kneeling on the ground and said with some sympathy:

"Other peaks are okay. Each person only needs to pay one vitality pill per month. Some elders are wise and don't even need to pay the first payment. Unfortunately, he is in our Ziyun Peak. The body-tempering realm handyman disciples of Ziyun Peak need to pay a monthly fee. Pay two vitality pills!”

"so much!"

Luo Cheng was surprised.

A handyman disciple in the Body Tempering Realm only has three Vitality Pills every month. If he pays two at once, how can he still practice?

"Isn't there anyone in charge?" Luo Cheng frowned.

Zhang Lian smiled bitterly: "Our handyman disciples, to put it nicely, are disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect, but to put it badly, we are just coolies. Who among those figures in the clouds would care about the life and death of the handyman disciples."

"Moreover, not everyone needs to pay the down payment. Those who have the potential to be promoted to outer disciples will not be embarrassed. The ones who suffer are those with average talents and no background. Just like them! They can only be slaughtered! "

Zhang Lian pointed to the three handyman disciples next to him.

Hearing this, Luo Cheng couldn't help but clenched his fists and felt a rush of hot blood rushing to his face.

He thought of all the experiences he experienced after awakening his martial soul.

Just because he awakened the useless martial soul, he was despised and made things difficult for him everywhere!

Does it mean that people with poor talents are not human beings?

Are the handyman disciples not human beings?

You can only let those who are above you take advantage of you!

Trampling on dignity!

If he hadn't defeated Li Hui, would he have to give up his own Vitality Pill every month if he awakens the useless martial soul? Suck it up!

call!

After a long time, Luo Cheng exhaled a deep breath, came to his junior brother, and said:

"Get up."

Junior Brother Yu looked at Luo Cheng with fear, "Senior Brother Luo Cheng, have you agreed?"

Luo Cheng didn't say much, he just returned the four Vitality Pills to the other two handyman disciples, and then took out a few more Vitality Pills and placed them in the hands of his junior brother Yu.

"You accept this and practice well."

Luo Cheng still has a net worth of several million taels, and a few Vitality Pills are nothing to him.

"Senior Brother Luo Cheng, what is this?"

The three of them looked at Luo Cheng in surprise.

Zhang Lian was also surprised: "Luo Cheng, you..."

Luo Cheng waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the White Jade Square in the distance.

Luo Cheng knew that with his current strength, nothing could be changed.

However, he was not willing to join the others.

Junior Brother Yu was stunned for a moment, looking at the Vitality Pill in his hand, his eyes immediately turned red, and he bowed deeply to Luo Cheng:

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Zhang Lian quickly caught up with Luo Cheng, hesitated several times, and finally said: "Luo Cheng, why did you do this?"

"It's nothing, I just want to do it."

Luo Cheng's tone was calm.

He is not a good person, he just doesn't want to violate his own principles.

Zhang Lian was stunned and sighed: "The interests involved here are too great. You...if you do this, I'm afraid you will offend Elder He."

Luo Cheng naturally knew this.

However, he has offended many people and does not care about one more.

Zhang Lian was silent for a moment and suddenly said seriously: "No matter what others say, I, Zhang Lian, admire you!"

Luo Cheng smiled and said: "Let's go and take a look at the square in front. There seem to be many people who don't know what's going on."

Zhang Lian looked at the square and said, "This is the Qingyun Trial. It has been released for a long time."

"Qingyun Trial?"

Zhang Lian nodded and explained: "The Qingyun Trial is an annual event for the handyman disciples. In addition to generous rewards, the top ten handyman disciples can even directly enter the outer sect and become outer sect disciples!"

"Go straight into the outer door?"

Luo Cheng's eyes lit up.

Zhang Lian nodded, and then smiled bitterly: "Let's forget about it. Every year in the Qingyun Trial, the top ten are all at the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm. Occasionally, one or two dark horses are at least at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm!"

"Go and have a look!"

Luo Cheng couldn't wait and walked towards the square quickly.

The square was one hundred feet long and wide, and was paved with square white cloud jade, magnificent and majestic.

In the front of the square, there was a high wall with a huge notice on it. The four golden characters of Qingyun Trial were very eye-catching.

Under the notice, a large group of people gathered, all looking up at the content of the notice.

Luo Cheng followed it and looked.

"It's a bit similar to the hunting meeting..."

Luo Cheng couldn't help muttering.

The content of the Qingyun Trial is to hunt monsters on Qingyun Island near Xuanyuan Sect, and finally rank them according to the total points of hunting monsters.

In addition to the top ten being able to enter the outer gate directly, the rewards of the Qingyun Trial are also very generous.

The first place winner will get 500 Yuanqi Pills, the second place winner will get 300 Yuanqi Pills, the third place winner will get 200 Yuanqi Pills... the tenth place winner will get 30 Yuanqi Pills.

As long as you enter the top 100, everyone can get 10 Yuanqi Pills.

Except for the sixth-level warriors in the Transcendent Realm, all menial disciples can participate in the Qingyun Trial.

Zhang Lian explained why the sixth-level warriors in the Transcendent Realm were not allowed to participate.

The Qingyun Trial itself is to motivate menial disciples and give everyone hope.

The sixth-level disciples in the Transcendent Realm already have the opportunity to be promoted to the third level of Tongxuan.

What's more, the sixth-level warriors in the Transcendent Realm are sharp-minded, have a fiery spirit, and possess the power of two elephants, with a strength of up to 50,000 jin! They are human-shaped beasts, and their strength is too strong!

If these people participate, the Qingyun Trial will lose its meaning of competition!

"Huh? The date of the Qingyun Trial is September 17! Isn't that tomorrow!"

Noticing the start date of the Qingyun Trial, Luo Cheng's pupils shrank.
