The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 398 Huang Quan Invitation (4)

Terao Yu said: "First of all, you have to know that we divide the strength of exorcists into four levels. The first one is the lowest C-level exorcist..."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Qian Xiaoyi interrupted him immediately and asked, "It's not ABC with an 'S' grade, right? Is the person who made this grade some comic-loving Chuunibyou?"

Terao Yu said very embarrassedly: "Stop talking nonsense! You are just a newcomer! What's wrong with this level division? It is simple and clear, and it is topical enough for people to remember it at once! It is not a setting in a comic book!"

No, this is... Qian Xiaoyi shook his head secretly and sighed in his heart: There is no cure for the Japanese's chuunibyou.

Qian Xiaoyi said, "Forget it, just don't use any chuuni nicknames when you introduce me later."

Terao Yu was silent.

"Okay... is that true?" Qian Xiaoyi complained, "You still say it's not a Chuunibyou?"

"Are you still going to listen?" Terao Yu's face flushed and he said angrily, "This is the information I carefully collected. Others may not have it!"

"I know, go ahead." Qian Xiaoyi suppressed his smile and said, "I won't laugh at you."

"Ahem... I'll continue then." Terao Yu said seriously, "First, the C-rank exorcist..."

"Pfft..."

Terao Yu said angrily: "Hey! You obviously smiled!"

"Sorry~" Qian Xiaoyi laughed, "This setting is really too childish... Please continue talking and leave me alone."

Terao Yu took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said, "Since you gave me your wine..."

"This guy doesn't seem to have a bad character, and he doesn't seem to be very cunning either." Qian Xiaoyi thought to himself, "Although he's not very qualified as a sorcerer...but as a person he's not bad, although he's a little immature."

Terao Yu, who didn't know that Qian Xiaoyi had already made an initial evaluation of him in his mind, said: "In short, the lowest level is the C-level exorcist. Most of them are the kind of guys who have just entered the industry. Apart from being able to see ghosts, their attack and life-saving methods are weak and they don't have much inheritance. This kind of people basically awakened their psychic abilities by accident and entered this industry by accident. They have only a superficial understanding of exorcism knowledge. There are still many such half-baked people in Tokyo, but there are basically none here because they can't even pass the checkpoints outside."

Qian Xiaoyi nodded: "Well, so according to your criteria, those who can get here are all B-level or above?"

Terao Yu said: "That's right, I said it before, Huangquan House is not a place that everyone can enter, there is a certain threshold. To be able to come here, you have been recognized by Mr. Ashiya and are considered a real exorcist. Those who can't even enter here can only accept some of the most rubbish commissions.

Now you have a certain understanding. A B-level exorcist has certain abilities and corresponding knowledge. He can protect himself against ordinary evil spirits. His strength is not too strong, but it is barely enough. Most exorcists in the industry are at this level. "

Qian Xiaoyi thought of Gui Teng, so he asked, "I know a senior exorcist named Gui Teng Longguang. Is he at this level?"

"You must be joking!" Terao Yu's eyes widened: "Senior Kitō is a true A-class exorcist! How can he be so weak?"

Qian Xiaoyi was stunned: "Is he that powerful?" "You, a newbie, don't understand the value of Master Gui Teng at all, right?" Terao Yu said dissatisfiedly: "He is a respected senior who is kind to others and has introduced many commissions to new exorcists. In terms of the completion rate of commissions, Master Gui Teng ranks among the best! There are very few commissions that he cannot complete, maybe only one in a hundred! Doesn't this prove something?"

Qian Xiaoyi was a little unconvinced. Based on his understanding of the ghost vine, he was afraid that the guy had earned such a good record by himself. How to avoid defeat? That is to avoid facing battles beyond your ability.

"So, what are the judging criteria for Grade A?" Qian Xiaoyi asked.

Terao Yu said: "The commission completion rate, and outstanding expertise in certain areas, and the kind that cannot be replaced by others."

"That's reasonable." Qian Xiaoyi nodded, and then thought of someone: "Oh, by the way, I also know a ghost exorcist named King Kong. According to the standard, he should also be an A-level ghost exorcist, right?"

Terao Yu said, "Huh?" "What are you talking about? That guy is definitely C-rank."

"What? C-level?" Qian Xiaoyi was shocked again. He began to be confused about this "easy to understand" level division. King Kong's vigorous blood was enough for him to face off against a big monster like the King of Civet Cats head-on, so how come he was still only C-level?

Terao Yu explained: "Don't be fooled by his fierce appearance. His commission completion rate is very low, and his perception ability is too poor. Sometimes he can't even find the ghosts in the commission, and he lets the target go without knowing it. Another thing is that with his ability, he can't even find the door here. How can this not be C-rank?"

"Is that so~" Qian Xiaoyi understood, but he did not agree with what this guy said. Instead, he understood his criteria for judgment.

The person in front of me is like a keyboard warrior on the Internet. He determines the levels of exorcists based on various rumors and their superficial performance, so some deviations are normal. In this case, this ranking should only be used as a reference and not taken too seriously.

Terao Yu said: "At the level of A-level, there are probably only a few dozen exorcists in the whole of Tokyo who have reached this level."

Qian Xiaoyi asked again: "What about the famous celebrity fortune teller Anna? What level is she?"

Terao Yu said: "She's at the bottom of the A-rank. Although her success rate is very high, she doesn't seem to accept ordinary commissions at all. She basically only accepts divination commissions... To be honest, I feel that her ranking is a bit high. After all, she hasn't shown any combat ability at all..."

Qian Xiaoyi was completely disappointed with this ranking. You know, among various exorcism commissions, exorcism is not the most important part. Only pure rookies would regard combat effectiveness as the only criterion.

Looking at Terao Yu, Qian Xiaoyi was somewhat speechless: "Well, this guy seems to be a complete rookie..."

He shouldn't have expected anything from a guy who just stood at the door and begged people to give him drinks.

Qian Xiaoyi continued to ask: "Let's just talk about the last S-level. They should be the most capable ones, right?"

Since the standard is based on combat capability, he also wants to know who are the S-level people.

“Hehehe~” Terao Yu laughed, “Are you really interested in this? This is inevitable… Then let’s skip the unimportant parts and go straight to the highlight!”
