Chapter 50: I Think I’ll Choose Money
Li Junwei only reacted to the situation after being stunned for a few seconds. He could not help but snicker in disdain. “You’re another one of the number one pro’s admirer’s, huh? You also played using the useless person and fruit knife combo? Let tell you, I’ve already defeated eight people using useless people this week.”
Qin Guan thought about it. “Then… let’s hope I don’t beco the ninth?”
Li Junwei was amused. He swung his wooden sword. “Alright. I won’t say anything about how you want to fight. Watch properly. Even though this is a wooden sword, when it hits you, it still hurts!”
Li Junwei rushed at him with his wooden sword.
The wooden swords were specially made and were rather sturdy. Since the Transcended Gars’ had greater strength, when the wooden sword really struck a person’s body, the Transcended Gars whose pain tolerance was weaker would also feel pain.
‘I’ll have to control my strength a little. I can’t hit this boy so much that he gets angry. It’ll just show that Chenxing Esports Club is not friendly to newcors…’ Li Junwei thought.
But before his wooden sword even struck, he saw a blur before his eyes, and Qin Guan vanished.
Then, he felt a foreign object slice his throat. The strength was not great, but he could sense that so force was used in the attack.
If his attacker had used a sharp weapon, the cut would have been quite deep.
Li Junwei’s wooden sword missed its target. Slightly puzzled, he touched his neck and found a few burrs from the wooden sword.
Qin Guan cast a glance at Leader Liu. “Do we still need to fight for five minutes?”
Leader Liu was shocked. It took him a long mont to wrap his head around what he had just seen.
‘What just happened? An official mber was just pwned…’
Leader Liu was just a normal person, but even he had seen that Li Junwei’s attack had missed. When Qin Guan dodged the sword, he had lifted his right hand to deliver the slash with the broken sword at Li Junwei’s throat.
Leader Liu did not manage to see whether the youth had really sliced Li Junwei’s throat. After all, Qin Guan’s movents were too fast, but from how flabbergasted Li Junwei looked while he touched his neck, the sword should have reached his neck.
“Don’t need to. Please co with . Little Li, do continue with your training.”
Qin Guan casually tossed the broken sword to Li Junwei and left with Leader Liu.
Li Junwei looked at the broken sword in his hand and tried to slice his neck with it.
‘Yes, it’s this feeling… but what exactly just happened?’
…
The duo ca to a parlor. The next thing they had to finalize was Qin Guan’s salary.
“We will pay you according to the salary I offered earlier. It’s not that we don’t want to offer you a higher pay, but the Parapsychology Association has standardized the pay offered to all Transcended Gars in clubs. We can’t do anything about this.
“But you should have seen our club’s advantage compared to the other clubs. One, our environnt is better, and two, we won’t force you to train. We’re rather lax in our managent compared to them.
“People like you can move about freely in the clubs. You don’t have to co every day to work. I’ll assign you to a team later, and when we allocate a mission to your team, just do it.”
“That’s good.” When Qin Guan heard that he did not need to co for work every day, he was rather happy. If he had to spar every day, he would be wasting away his life…
Qin Guan didn’t swiftly accept the offer, however. “Please let go back and think about it.”
Leader Liu nodded. “Of course. But please give us an answer as soon as possible.”
While he was rather satisfied with all aspects of the club, Qin Guan still wondered whether he should verify a certain matter with Du Wei.
Leader Liu escorted Qin Guan out of the building, showing a rather sincere attitude.
When he arrived at the entrance, Qin Guan cast a glance at the gatehouse. Mister Ke was really there and appeared to truly be shouldering the two great duties of handing out flyers and watching over the building at the sa ti.
It had to be said that Mister Ke’s attitude towards work was very good, but no matter what, he was old now, and his body was weaker, because he was currently sitting in his chair and sleeping so deeply that he was about to start drooling…
Just when Qin Guan wondered whether he should ask Mister Ke to open the door for him, he saw Mister Ke reach out to press a button while he asleep.
Qin Guan walk out the door in silence. ‘Truly, it’s as they say, no matter what profession it is, soone in that profession will erge as the best. He’s asleep, but he didn’t forget about his work…’
…
When he returned ho, Qin Guan asked Du Wei whether all clubs offered a standardized salary.
Du Wei’s first reaction was to send him an angry text. [Why is it that you chose to go to a club even after I told you so many things?! What makes the Parapsychology Association inferior in your eyes compared to them?!]
His second reaction was to reply to the question. [The pay is indeed standardized. That’s the rule set by the Parapsychology Association.]
This verified certain aspects of the contract. Based on the Parapsychology Association’s demands, the clubs could only form short-term contracts with Transcended Gars. They could not have the Transcended Gars sign long-term contracts that would tie them to the clubs for five or six years. If Transcended Gars ran into anything that dissatisfied them during the period of ti they worked with the clubs, they could leave at anyti they wanted.
This made it obvious that the Parapsychology Association treated all the Transcended Gars as their reserve force, which was why they did not allow the clubs to poach them by offering a high pay. They also did not allow the clubs to use contracts to limit the Transcended Gars’ freedom.
Du Wei ensured Qin Guan that as long as he wanted to go to the Parapsychology Association, he could do so at anyti he wanted. Du Wei could definitely do this much for him.
Qin Guan pondered over this for a while. If that was the case, he would try out Chenxing Esports Club first.
He called Leader Liu to tell him that he had decided to join them. He also told him that he would go to the club to sign the contract the next day to settle the matter.
During the next few days, besides going to lectures, Qin Guan spent all his ti in the trials. He worked on gaining experience and leveling up. His day was actually very packed.
Qin Guan heard from Su Xiaoyu that the first batch of Transcended Gars who finished the third trial in their university had all found their places.
Most of the more outstanding ones joined the Parapsychology Association, but there was a limited number of vacancies, so the competition was rather fierce. Those who did not manage to get in joined the clubs.
Of course, there were also so people who were rejected by the clubs, but such instances were rare. After all, those who could clear the third basic trial were all not normal people.
Although Su Xiaoyu had joined the Parapsychology Association, they did not assign her any missions for the ti being. Sotis, the association would have the reserve mbers spar against each other and remind them to rember to train their spirit and train in the maps every day, but that was it.
However, they were more reliable than the clubs in the sense that the Parapsychology Association assigned instructors to the reserve mbers. They were investigators who were similar to Du Wei. They guided the reserve mbers regularly in terms of their sword skills, fighting posture, and other things. They focused mainly on strengthening their foundation.
Su Xiaoyu asked Qin Guan whether he wanted to think about it a little more because the Parapsychology Association designated professionals to teach them.
Qin Guan told her that he would rather choose money. With Du Wei’s skills, he could not teach Qin Guan anything…
Perhaps to the other people, the Parapsychology Association was indeed very attractive in this aspect. After all, the investigators could teach them certain things about how to fight.
However, to Qin Guan, that was nothing. Was 4,000 RMB per month enough for Du Wei to teach him how to fight?
Even if he joined the Parapsychology Association for this, he should at least get soone who was strong enough to make it valuable.
In a certain secret location in Beijing, Du Wei suddenly sneezed while reporting on his work.
‘Strange, who’s talking bad about ? I didn’t offend anyone lately…’
He was quite puzzled.
