Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air

Chapter 133 Qingluan Team
Most of the ruins were originally places where strong men kept themselves in seclusion.

To ensure the safety of retreat, or to avoid being disturbed after death.

These powerful people will place soul guides around and make the internal passages complicated.

Once the ruins are opened, even if the group enters immediately, it will take some time because of the anti-theft measures.

When the Qibao team arrives, they will probably run into them head-on.

They had originally planned to fight and train with soul beasts in the forest, and forming a soul hunting team was a good choice.

……

Lipton Township.

Wu Qi and others came to a hotel.

"Sir, looking at the weather, there might be a snowstorm tonight. Would you like to stay in the hotel and have some strong liquor to warm yourself up?"

Sun Buyu agreed to all of them and asked, "Are there any soul hunting teams nearby? If so, how many are stationed here permanently?"

After receiving the money, the waiter replied with a smile, "Sir, you have asked the right person."

"This area is completely forested, with no shelter. The cold air will constantly blow down on you. Without shelter, you'd freeze to death at night. And staying in a hotel would incur daily expenses. Therefore, the only Soul Hunter team stationed in this area is the Hualong team."

"They have a base here, which gives them a geographical advantage over other teams."

"Some teams come here regularly, but they don't stay here permanently. If you need to hunt souls, I can help contact the Hualong team."

Wu Qi shook his head. "No need. We are here to do business with the Soul Hunting Team. Waiter, how much discount can I get for renting your room long-term?"

The waiter's mouth twitched.

In the Lipton Forest, there are very few soul beasts over ten thousand years old. Employers almost always come here to hunt the first three soul rings, and very few come here to hunt the fourth soul ring.

The cost of staying in a place like this is not low. Unless Wu Qi and his team have work to do every day, they will definitely lose money.

Seeing that they were dressed richly, the waiter thought they were aristocrats who came there to have fun.

One of his waiters couldn't make the decision on the hotel discount, so he quickly called the shopkeeper over.

Seeing that Wu Qi and others paid for half a year's rent in one go, the shopkeeper smiled from ear to ear and was willing to help their team attract customers.

As for the team name, we cannot use a name that will reveal our origin.

Wu Qi was the team leader, and everyone unanimously decided to name the team "Qingluan".

……

Everyone sat around the fireplace in the room.

Chen Ping said excitedly: "My dream before was to join a soul hunting team. I didn't expect that my wish would come true."

The nature of the Soul Hunting Team is similar to that of people in the martial arts world.

Even if there are swords and blood, and people are penniless, there are still people who choose to embark on this path.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Soul Hunting Team is a bit like a hero in the martial arts world, with a very high level of prestige.

Wu Qi chuckled, "You're truly easily satisfied. However, we're only here for experience, and we're not familiar with the Lipton Forest. If someone asks us for a commission, we'll just accept a small payment as a token of our appreciation."

After all, people don't make a living from this.

But if you don't take the money, you will definitely offend the local soul hunting team.

……

Time flies and it’s three days later.

With the introduction of the hotel owner, the Qingluan team finally got their first business.

The client was a father and daughter. Through the perception of their auras, everyone knew clearly that the father was just an ordinary person, while his daughter had a tenth-level soul power and was not very old.

When the father saw the young faces of the crowd, he felt a little relieved.

At least, young people rarely commit robbery.

"My daughter's martial spirit is a spear. Do you have any recommendations for suitable spirit beasts? And how much would it cost?"

Huo Wu took the initiative to talk to the little girl and asked, "Little sister, has your teacher ever told you what kind of spirit ring is suitable for your martial spirit?"

As she spoke, she grabbed the girl's hand.

After careful perception, it is easy to find that the opponent's soul power level has long been upgraded to level ten, but he waited until today to hunt for soul rings.

The girl was about eight years old. No one knew when she had broken through to level ten, but it had been delayed for so long that her future cultivation would definitely be affected.

This is the norm in mainland China!
It is not as easy for ordinary people to make money as it is for soul masters. The price of hunting the first soul ring ranges from five to five hundred gold soul coins. If you want a good soul ring, you can only keep saving money.

Wu Qi said leisurely, "Are you going alone, or both of you? If there are two of you, there will be an extra charge."

The father was honest and kind, and he quickly waved his hand, "Just take my daughter with you. How much does a Hundred Years Spirit Ring cost?"

"A hundred-year spirit ring costs fifty gold soul coins. If it's just a ten-year spirit ring, I'll charge you five gold soul coins."

The father sighed, looked at his daughter apologetically, and finally took out all his belongings, about ten gold soul coins.

"Several great soul masters, please hunt down the best ten-year soul rings for my daughter."

The girl felt a little disappointed, but she quickly adjusted her mood.

Wu Qi took the money and waved, "It's still early, let's set off now and try to come back after dark."

……

After entering the forest, Huo Wu asked the girl, "Little sister, what's your name?"

The little girl's name is He Niannian. According to her own account, her innate soul power reached level eight. After entering the academy, she broke through to level ten after practicing for half a year.

"The teachers don't like Nian Nian, and they won't help me with soul hunting. Our family is poor, and my father worked in the mines for a long time before he could scrape together the ten gold soul coins."

"If I had spirit rings every year and could receive subsidies from the Spirit Hall every month, Dad wouldn't have to suffer so much."

After hearing this, everyone roughly understood what had happened to her.

But she thought too simply. The main purpose of the Spirit Hall giving money to soul masters was for them to save it and use it for soul hunting expenses.

After becoming Soul Masters, Soul Masters had a certain ability to protect themselves and could cooperate with each other to hunt souls, so the subsidies for Soul Masters were cancelled.

It can be said that based on the way Shrek's group uses money, if they don't have help from their elders, their strength will be stuck at a certain stage for the rest of their lives.

It's impossible for a teacher to dislike a student for no reason. Sun Buyu has the most say. "There must be some noble students in the academy who are jealous of her talent. The teachers are trying to please the nobles, so they ignore her."

"Why don't you go to the Spirit Hall?" Huo Wu asked.

Qiangu Changkong reminded: "The Spirit Hall's influence in the northern part of the empire is not enough."

"Many nobles, in order to discover talent, would rush to help commoners awaken their martial spirits. This girl didn't tell the whole story. She must have been through something."

If someone doesn't want to talk, you can't ask them about it, right?

He Niannian was afraid that she would be left behind, so she hurriedly explained, "It was Master Charles's subordinate who helped Niannian awaken his martial spirit."

"The master originally said that he would take Nian Nian to Tiandou City, but the next day, the master was murdered."

"Later, the mine where Dad worked was taken over by another noble lord. That lord was very cruel. Not only did he withhold Dad's wages, he also beat him."

She clenched her fists, and deep resentment appeared in her eyes.
