Chapter 9: Disparities

You are a genius

Moreover, it is unnecessary to mention the passive abilities that Xuan Ye possesses; I could clearly sense the terrifying power and speed of the opponent, and I even vaguely perceived a strange, unnatural distortion ripple pattern.

Each time a new core is condensed at the professional level, it will further strengthen the existing core once, while also acquiring the enhancement ability corresponding to the new core. Although there is no sublimation or transformation at the level of life as there is when breaking through the professional level, the overall strength will undergo a qualitative change

However, with the personal experience of the original victim still fresh in his memory, Xuan Ye instinctively felt a sense of repulsion and vigilance towards this more beautiful woman. If that Sally had already turned out that way, how could this one not be even more extraordinary

I felt a rush of heat to my face and my heart raced, the level of embarrassment was a bit overwhelming

Upon hearing this, Jack also nodded gently and said

Four people! Only a team of four is the tough character in Huo Yuan's words

Such a scene

How could a little recluse who hasn't even had a girlfriend not be afraid? Once one develops any inappropriate thoughts and gets trapped in them, it would be disastrous. One must absolutely avoid the three major illusions of life.

Previously, I always felt that the head of the Kender family, who was known as the greatest genius of Stanrose, was a mountain looming over me. However, I have now suddenly realized that a so-called "genius" who breaks into the professional ranks at the age of 25 is truly underwhelming

Following such a team truly yields remarkable rewards. Over the years since he formed the scavenging team, he has not encountered many such opportunities, and it would be a pity to miss out.

However, when he focused his attention on his eyes and turned back to see the next person, he was momentarily taken aback. The flowing golden hair, gently swaying in the wind, appeared even more dazzling against the backdrop of the form-fitting white armor and perfectly tailored skirt armor. The exquisite and beautiful facial features were a perfect match, and in terms of appearance, they were far more striking than the potion-wielding femme fatale that had deceived the original owner to the brink of death.

Even from Rorog's tone, the most unexpected among this trio was actually the unregistered magic apprentice

Oh, Luoluoji, you all have arrived quite swiftly, as if you have caught the scent of blood like a sand dog.

Through the actions of one individual from the opposing side, Xuan Ye has already determined that the person who struck is significantly stronger than Luo Luo Ji. However, the specifics of the remaining three individuals remain unknown. Based on his limited experience, if he were not able to directly interpret various parameters, he would not even be able to clearly identify the person who made the move.

Under the shadow of the dunes, a lone figure, upon seeing the large army that could not be concealed, stepped forward without any concern and said in a teasing manner. With black hair and black eyes, this individual could be considered of the same ethnic group as Xuan Ye, belonging to the summer lineage.

This made Xuan Ye involuntarily think of his already shattered tragic dream of becoming the King of Magic. Sigh, it is better to honestly advance to a higher professional rank first. In the past few days, the basic breathing technique, under the condition of fine-tuning and strengthening the database, has begun to loosen the "perception" inner palace located near the liver. When practicing archery, he could clearly feel that, without activating the Eye of Breaking Magic, his dynamic vision had also improved slightly, and reaching level 7 was just around the corner.

If the other party truly harbors malicious intent, and their strength exceeds one's capacity to cope, then one might as well hand over the purse. After purchasing a few items along the way, there isn't much left anyway, so bringing back the current gains is not a loss.

Moreover, she has not only just made a breakthrough, but has already condensed at least the second inner palace core now This ... ...

Upon closer inspection, although the ages of the other three individuals are slightly older, their talents are certainly expected to surpass that of the 25-year-old head of the Kender family who has just broken through to the professional rank. The blue-haired handsome young man appears to be no older than 20, and his talent should be second only to that of the young lady.

After weighing the money bag, Huo Yuanshu did not even count it before putting it away. Luo Luoji has a rather good reputation in this regard

Ah, Luo Luoji, you are indeed straightforward. However, as a distinguished professional expert, it is rather unseemly for you to be collecting scraps every day. It would be much better for you to join us; the team leader has mentioned you many times.

stranger

No matter how it is, even if the weakest among them is left to deal with Roronoa Zoro, it is impossible to treat it so lightly. Although it is related to Zoro's profession, it is still sufficient to illustrate the strength of the opponent's four-member team

Especially when advancing from two stars to three stars and from four stars to five stars, the subtle relationship regarding the number of core members in the inner court results in a more pronounced increase in strength, directly distinguishing the primary, intermediate, and advanced levels of professional ranks

Upon comparison, Xuan Ye immediately felt that the original owner, who had decent talent, had previously lived like a dog.

What we are discussing now is the remaining issue of the Warcraft meat

Haha, judging by their appearance, they are likely elite students from Dream Island. If they truly had malicious intent, you wouldn't see us here. Communication is not difficult; they seem to have come to investigate the recent frequent appearances of wanderers, and they probably look down on the trash that can be easily dealt with on the road. They won't even charge you for it. Whether you go or not is up to you; we will take our leave now.

After Roloji scratched his chin with his finger, which was as thick as a radish, he was determined that with the strength of Huo Yuan and the others, it was indeed surprising that they could claim to have not seen the other party due to malicious intent. It was likely that the lineup of that team was quite luxurious

As rare as substances such as bezoar stones from cows and ambergris from dogs on Earth

However, upon reflection, the greatest genius in the entire Stanrose City, who previously held the highest record, is the current head of the Kendall family, who led the family to glory. He broke through to the professional rank at the age of twenty-five, and now in his forties, he has already reached the pinnacle of the professional rank, having consolidated six core six-star powerhouses from the six major inner courts

With a flick of his hand, the bottle in Huo Yuan's grasp gleamed as if by magic. He curled his lip and remarked that even magical beasts at the predatory level possess magic cores, but when extracting these cores, a significant portion tends to dissolve on their own upon detaching from the beast's body

I do not know where this monstrosity has emerged from

In terms of correspondence, a level 9 magic apprentice has not yet entered the professional rank, nor have they condensed a professional core in the Star Palace. Theoretically, they should be equivalent to a level 9 knight squire. However, due to the rarity of mages and the peculiar methods employed by them, a level 9 magic apprentice holds a higher social status and plays a more significant role in a team than that of an ordinary professional rank expert

As Huo Yuan, who had packed his belongings and was ready to depart, reached the top of the sand dune and was about to leave, he seemed to recall something and turned back to Luo Luji to say.

Indeed, very few people are willing to deliberately draw the attention of the scavenging team, especially when the other party possesses strength and status

The other party showed no signs of concealment. Utilizing the tracking abilities of Rorog, who has spent years in the desert, a reconnaissance team led by Rorog, along with several senior knight attendants and Xuan Ye, a part-time apprentice ranger, easily located the small group that the other party had mentioned.

The danger level of the desert lizard is not as stable as that of the spiked demon; theoretically, it represents a power range from high-ranking knight attendants to intermediate professionals of three to four stars.

Oh, by the way, there is a group of unfamiliar faces in the southwest direction. They are quite formidable. There aren't many of them, but if you follow them, you might gain some valuable information. If the rewards are substantial, don't forget to give me a share of the information fee later.

Fortunately, Rologgi, who came to observe and assess the situation, has sufficient experience, he said with a frown

Due to the longstanding relationship, the negotiations between both parties proceeded quite swiftly. After a brief assessment, Luoluoji took out a pouch of money and tossed it over. From the sound, it could be estimated that there were about fifty to sixty silver coins, roughly equivalent to one-tenth of the value within the city

Now, thinking back, that father with a face full of deep resentment was brainwashing me as he patted my shoulder and said

When Xuan Ye saw from a distance a burly man with something resembling a cigar in his mouth, wielding a heavy axe and effortlessly cleaving a desert lizard in two, he felt a slight tremor in his calves

Initially focused solely on the ruthless character who struck, after receiving a reminder from Luoluoji, Xuan Ye also began to observe the other three individuals.

Upon hearing Huo Yuan's reminder, Luo Luoji felt a stir of emotions but also hesitated. The other party had mentioned that they were formidable characters, which likely meant there were professionals among them. If they were unfamiliar faces, the uncertainty of recklessly following them was too great.

After playfully teasing Roloji one last time, the group prepared to head back home. They had gathered most of their belongings, and the gains from this outing were quite satisfactory

Forget it, this is all there is to it, and when added up, it can only be considered a break-even at best

It is important to note that while the apparent age difference between a professional at twenty-five and one at sixteen is only nine years, if we do not consider the foundational years, the formal training typically begins around the age of twelve. One has trained for four years, while the other has trained for thirteen years, resulting in a significant disparity

Uh, of course, the original owner claimed to have reached the talent of a Level 6 Knight Squire at the age of 16, which is even less impressive. If he really went to serve as a retainer, he would probably still be looked down upon...

Students of Dream Island? Tsk, let's catch up first and talk later

I am afraid that if we arrive late, you will be eaten by this spiny demon. Tsk tsk, it seems that the harvest is quite good. So, do you have any magic cores?

Moreover, the professional tier represents a stage of life that transcends the ordinary; upon breaking through, the remaining lifespan can double. This refers specifically to the remaining lifespan, and the gap between the two parties widens significantly. Typically, a difference of just one year can determine whether one can continue on this path, let alone such a substantial disparity.

It seems that it is indeed because that woman, uh, the girl's talent is too exceptional

Regarding this price, the members of the Sand Rat Mercenary Corps naturally have no objections. Although it is indeed one-tenth of the original price, they have already filled their load and adding more weight would hinder their agility, significantly increasing the risk. If no one pays, they would have to discard it directly. Now, having unexpectedly acquired value that would have otherwise been discarded, they certainly do not suffer a loss.

The total value of the flesh from the entire spiny creature is only worth this much, yet the volume occupied by both parties is disproportionate. Furthermore, with the spines, teeth, and belly, the mercenary group still took the lion's share.

Additionally, a thin, expressionless young man is sitting on a floating small carpet, wearing a light blue robe. The back of the robe features nine stars of varying sizes, which, combined with the robe's base color, resembles a starry sky. This should be the emblem of a magic apprentice mentioned by Loloji.

There are still secrets within oneself that one must carry in their heart for a lifetime

Although there are solutions available, the alchemical products turn out to be too uneconomical, even resulting in losses. It is better to directly collect the dissolved magical essence. Although its value has diminished to one-tenth of its original worth, it can still be valued at five hundred silver coins

He seemed to smile with a hint of self-mockery, and Huo Yuan's figure also departed from that sand dune

The one sitting still appears to be a level 9 magic apprentice, while the one who acted is a professional warrior of rank 2 to 3. As for the girl watching, judging by her equipment, she is likely a temple knight or a paladin, at least having entered the professional rank. The blue-haired young man who is getting close to her is probably a guardian like me, but stronger than I am, and it is indeed unlikely that he is from our local area

Such age and such strength can only be found among the students of Dream Island, and they must be elite students. It is indeed extravagant for a team of four to have the rare addition of a level 9 magic apprentice, and that cloud egg held in the mouth of the warrior is an expensive luxury. Although I also like it, I simply cannot afford to buy it

Luo Luoji was not concerned about the other party's tone; instead, he inquired about the gains, indicating that the two parties indeed had a long-standing relationship

However, what is most striking is the other party's age, which is likely not much older than the age of my current body

As for appearance, well, it is indeed quite eye-catching. Even though I have seen so many captivating figures online in my previous life, I still want to keep staring at him. Otherwise, that last blue-haired handsome man would not be so attentive and eager to please her by her side.

The one who made the move is a rather boisterous and wild-looking man. Although his physique is not as exaggerated as that of Rorog, he is still quite robust. He has a silly grin on his face, slightly foolish in appearance, yet his strength is remarkably impressive

The professional rank at the age of sixteen! No, it may even be two stars or even three stars, and it also takes into account the special profession of the Star Palace
