People in Douluo, the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 43 43. A Murder Case Caused by Fifty Silver Soul Coins

Hearing this, Qin Xue couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Huo Yuhao, you can insult my personality, but you can't insult my intelligence. What's the point of practicing the tactics of a seven-person team fighting spirit? I'm afraid you have other intentions."

"Want to practice? Okay, we don't have time this afternoon, but we can introduce you to another team. They are the lineup of the Five Soul Lords of the Two Soul Sect. They can definitely give you a boost and help you hone your team spirit tactics."

Huo Yuhao: "..."

The key to defeating the strong with the weak is to take the opponent by surprise. If you give up all your strength before the game, it will be difficult to win the game.

He originally planned to test the background of Qin Xue, Qin Mengmeng, Jiang Nannan and others, but in the end... humph, he was outmaneuvered.

"Forget it. I'm a bit socially anxious and don't like dealing with strangers."

Huo Yuhao simply said a few perfunctory words to Qin Xue, then quickly stepped forward and followed Bei Bei and others into the No. 1 private room.

As soon as she entered the room, Chen Yu expressed her thoughts. "If you ask me... students with some ability will never go to the intelligence room to find a team. There should be a small circle among the top talented students, but we haven't discovered it yet."

Ah this...

Tang Ya frowned, then raised her hand and suggested, "How about we go ask Qin Xue? She is the daughter of the deputy leader of the Body Sect, and Her Majesty the Demon Dragon is also working in Shrek Academy. There must be many students who go to curry favor with her, and maybe we can get some information."

Xu Sanshi shook his head and said, "This is unrealistic. Even though the intelligence room is bustling with people, there are only two or three teams at most that are eligible to compete for the quota, except for us and Qin Xue. They are all competitors. Do you expect Qin Xue to help us?"

"Instead of recruiting some useless students, it is better to go to the Soul Hunter Guild in Shrek City to recruit three mercenaries of the right age. Even though their martial spirits are of poor quality, they are all tough guys who have fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Their combat experience and ruthlessness are not comparable to those pampered students."

"As for their identity? Haha, that's even simpler. We can just find a loophole and apply for a temporary student identity for them. With Beibei's identity, I don't think there will be any big problems."

"If we qualify successfully, we can openly recruit strong players from other teams as our substitutes. Hiring mercenaries is just a temporary measure."

As soon as this was said, everyone expressed their agreement. It was not that they wanted to take advantage of the situation, but they really did not want to be fooled by Mi Tiangong again. Hadn’t they met enough weird students this morning?

After the candidate was chosen, Zhao Chong's situation became rather awkward. Huo Yuhao only gave him fifty Silver Soul Coins as compensation. He didn't even let him eat and directly kicked Zhao Chong out of the private room.

That’s right, it’s fifty Silver Soul Coins, not five Gold Soul Coins, let alone fifty Gold Soul Coins, but the extremely insulting fifty Silver Soul Coins!

Zhao Chong was very angry. He was a three-ring soul master. Although he came from a humble background, he had the big platform of Shrek City. He could earn more than five gold soul coins by doing any part-time job. He was mainly angry at Huo Yuhao's attitude. When could the combat meeting not be held? He could have invited him to dinner, or say a few words of apology. What would Zhao Chong care about?
You, Huo Yuhao, could have taken out five gold soul coins from the bag of gold soul coins as compensation, or you could have just grabbed a handful from the bag of silver soul coins and handed them to him. But you counted for a long time and gave him fifty silver soul coins, both in odds and in evens.

What does this mean? It means that in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Zhao Chong will always be a second-class person, a servant who can be used and discarded at will, and is only worthy of using silver soul coins!
What was the truth? Perhaps Huo Yuhao wanted to give Zhao Chong five gold soul coins, but he took the wrong purse and was too lazy to exchange them, so he took out the equivalent silver soul coins and gave them to him, or there might be other reasons.

But the problem is that what Huo Yuhao thinks is no longer important. What is important is Zhao Chong’s understanding.

Obviously, Zhao Chong's understanding might have been slightly biased, causing him to hate Huo Yuhao and the Tang Sect!
"Hiring mercenaries to participate in the competition? Humph! I will report it now and let your Tang Sect's plan fail!"

Don't underestimate the determination of a small person. He has no foundation and has offended the Tang Sect. The worst that can happen is that he can just change his environment and live in another place.

When Zhao Chong was about to turn around and leave the Tulip Hotel, he suddenly thought of a very realistic problem - that is, his influence is insignificant, so is reporting... really useful?

Thinking of this, Zhao Chong turned around, his eyes unconsciously fell on Qin Xue. Hiss... I heard from Huo Yuhao and the others that Qin Xue is the daughter of the deputy leader of the Body Sect, and is also a sworn enemy of Huo Yuhao and the others. Her reporting should be strong enough, right?
At this moment, Zhao Chong suddenly rushed to the table of Qin Xue and her group, recounted Huo Yuhao and their plan in the shortest possible words, and then ran out of the Tulip Hotel without looking back.

? ? ? ? ? ?
Qin Xue and others were full of question marks on their faces. What kind of thing was this?
After an unknown amount of silence, Xu Bin hesitantly said, "Big, Big Sister, this couldn't be a trap set by the Tang Sect, just to lure us into reporting it so they can frame us."

Qin Xue pondered, "Even if the Tang Sect accuses us of something, they can't deprive us of our eligibility to participate. What's the point of doing this?"

"Let's go back to the academy now. I want to see if the Tang Sect can give us a surprise."

Just like that, Qin Xue brought eight friends back to Shrek Academy and went to the dean's office on the fifth floor of the external courtyard office building as soon as possible.

Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!
Qin Xue knocked several times in succession, but there was still no response from inside the office. Just as the nine people were about to leave, a dignified and beautiful aunt in a burgundy dress came over.

"Little guys, what's wrong with you?"

The moment she saw the beautiful aunt's face, Qin Mengmeng's brain froze for a second. Before coming to Shrek Academy, she had seen the portraits of all the senior executives of Poseidon Pavilion and Shrek Academy. She recognized at a glance that the other party was Yan Shaozhe's wife, Gun God Douluo Cai Meir, who was the vice president of the External Academy at the time!
"Vice Dean, we accidentally discovered that some students were breaking the law and violating discipline. Due to their special status, ordinary teachers dare not deal with them, so we thought of reporting to the Dean."

Qin Xue did not call Cai Meir "senior", but used the versatile title "adult". She really did not want to, or could not, lower her generation.
