From Beggar to Emperor: My Profession Has Its Own Characteristics

Chapter 100 Cultivation Efficiency

"My lord, I don't quite understand," Zhu Yuan said bluntly. "Assuming Miss Situ is interested in me, according to your account of her, this theory doesn't hold true."

"Zhu Yuan, you're too young, you don't understand yet." He Zhengzhou's tone returned to its earnest tone.

Zhu Yuan looked at He Zhengzhou.

I think he has quite a story to tell.

Very experienced.

"You'll see later that this is how women are; they're easily swayed by emotions and rarely achieve great things." As He Zhengzhou said this, he seemed to be recalling something.

Looking at He Zhengzhou again, Zhu Yuan still felt that his theoretical knowledge and experience were perfect.

Zhu Yuan wanted to say something more, but He Zhengzhou didn't give him a chance to speak and directly ended the topic.

"Anyway, this is a good thing for you. It will be easier for you to come to our Demon Suppression Division in the future. Just keep an eye on Situ Susu."

Sun Ningxiang told him to pay attention to Situ Susu, and He Zhengzhou also told him to pay attention to Situ Susu.

It is very difficult to change people's prejudices.

After thinking it over, Zhu Yuan nodded to He Zhengzhou, indicating that he understood and had taken it to heart.

The two talked for a long time.

Most of the time, He Zhengzhou wanted to pass on his experience as a demon suppressor.

Zhu Yuan wasn't really interested in hearing this right now, because he wasn't a demon slayer yet, and listening to He Zhengzhou impart his experience wouldn't give him any real experience in the profession.

After chatting for a while, Zhu Yuan thanked He Zhengzhou again for applying for the Small Qi Cultivation Pill as a reward for him, and then left the Demon Suppression Division.

After leaving the Demon Suppression Bureau, Zhu Yuan returned to his residence on Hualin Street.

It's time to leave this place.

After tidying up, Zhu Yuan went to find his landlord, Wu Yuanhe.

Because he hadn't given Wu Yuanhe a deposit beforehand, returning the house was much easier.

Wu Yuanhe stated that he had only stayed for twenty days this month and insisted on getting a refund of one-third of the money.

In the case of normal lease termination, there is no option to get a refund if you leave early.

Zhu Yuan knew that the other party did this not only because he had taken care of him from time to time, but also because he knew that Zhu Yuan had become a martial artist and wanted to establish a small goodwill.

In the end, Zhu Yuan did not refuse and accepted the forty coins before leaving.

As a bodyguard for the Situ family, I will be living in the Situ household from now on.

When you stop working as a nurse, you can find a new place to live.

Moving into the Situ family's residence was tantamount to him moving into the heart of Qingyang County.

The five major martial arts schools and the four major families are all located in the heart of Qingyang County.

In a small courtyard where the guards of the Situ family lived.

Take what you need to take, and sell what you need to sell.

Zhu Yuan currently has a total of just over five taels of silver, which is about three taels short of his monthly salary. This is already quite good for him. This amount of silver is what he has saved after deducting daily expenses and the monthly tuition fees paid to the Dongyun Martial Arts School for registered disciples.

Get things done, in a roundabout way.

It was already noon.

At this time, a servant brought over lunch.

"Head Nurse Zhu, this is your lunch. The Second Miss said you can tell her if you need anything."

"No, you may leave now."

"Yes."

Nursing jobs typically include room and board.

Zhu Yuan was very satisfied with the lunch. There was plenty of fish, meat, fruits and vegetables, and the portions were enough for a Ming Jin stage martial artist to eat, with some left over.

The Situ family has quite a few martial artists at the Ming Jin stage, and they have done a very good job in this regard.

All-you-can-eat is no longer enough for Zhu Yuan; he's now used to eating until he's stuffed.

Anyway, since it has a special effect, he won't be in pain for long.

"Living here, including food, my monthly salary is at least ten taels of silver."

After enjoying his lunch, Zhu Yuan patted his belly with satisfaction.

When the servants came to clear the dishes later, they saw the bowls were completely clean and asked him if he wanted more food in the future.

Zhu Yuan said no need, this is just right.

In the afternoon, Zhu Yuan quickly began his cultivation in the small courtyard.

Having become a martial artist, one cannot neglect the practice of the Ming Jin chapter of Tianyun Zhuang Gong.

When you get tired from cultivation, take a break, and then continue cultivating.

Then Zhu Yuan discovered that the characteristics of the guard profession were quite useful.

The added recovery ability allows him to perform guard duties at a higher intensity and also enables him to cultivate more efficiently.

Shortening rest time is a way to indirectly increase the efficiency of cultivation.

Moreover, he was less likely to feel tired during cultivation because his recovery ability was enhanced.

Overall, it increased his cultivation efficiency by about 20%.

Don't underestimate 20%. Over a longer period, it makes a big difference. If it would normally take Zhu Yuan three years to reach the peak of the Ming Jin stage, with the help of his special ability, he can do it in just two and a half years.

Increasing efficiency by 20% can save him half a year's time.

Besides the first characteristic of the guard profession, the characteristics of other professions also provide some assistance to his cultivation.

For example, the third characteristic of the porter profession can also help him recover better, but the effect is not as good as this one.

The third characteristic of the porter's profession played a very good role yesterday, helping him adapt to the breathing rhythm more quickly, which also made him perform better in front of his master, Dongduzhou, yesterday.

At dusk.

During his break, Zhu Yuan opened an old-fashioned book and took a look.

I'd like to see if any ancient books have records of this.

There was indeed a record of it.

[The second young lady of the main family, Situ Susu, has given you orders to spend the rest of the day on your own.]

You have left the master's territory.

You have returned to your master's territory.

[You've been living your life as a guard in your own way for a while now, but it's not really related to the guarding facility. +1 to your professional experience.]

[You've been living your life as a guard in your own way for a while now, but it's not really related to the guarding facility. +1 to your professional experience.]

Occupation: Nurse; Level: Lv1 (5/1000)

There was indeed an increase in professional experience, but the increase was very small.

He spent the entire afternoon cultivating and gained five experience points.

All five records are exactly the same.

The records in the ancient books also made Zhu Yuan realize that if he left his master's territory, he would not gain any more professional experience.

This once again demonstrates the importance of being proactive.

If he hadn't asked Situ Susu this morning, and if Situ Susu hadn't given him the order, he probably wouldn't have even gained these five points of professional experience.

Zhu Yuan closed the old-fashioned book, still satisfied with the five points of professional experience he had gained.

After all, he spent the entire afternoon cultivating and did nothing else.

Not long after.

The servant who arrived at noon brought today's dinner.

Dinner was just as plentiful as lunch, and Zhu Yuan ate to his heart's content.

Now he still needs to leave the Situ family to tell the old beggar about his recent situation and check on their well-being.

The old beggar would return to his lodgings around nightfall.
