“Don’t leave!” Ye Wanwan grabbed Li Xin by his shoulder again. “5000!”
“10,000!” Li Xin countered.
“8,000!” Ye Wanwan frowned.
“Fine, 8,000 then. You have to give me 4,000 as down payment first,” Li Xin agreed.
Ye Wanwan had no choice but to transfer 4,000 to him via phone.
“Wait for my news.” Li Xin then left with his phone in hand.
Less than 10 minutes later, Li Xin returned and said, “My brother agreed. He’ll come over later.”
“Alright.” Ye Wanwan smiled. It’d be easy as long as he came.
Ye Wanwan didn’t have a chance to say anything else before three people entered the classroom.
These three people were all wearing yellow uniforms, signifying their statuses as C-rank mercenaries at Scarlet Flames Academy.
Everyone was startled by the appearance of C-rank mercenaries.
“Heh, allow me to introduce myself. I’m Zhang Zuonian, a C-rank mercenary and also your senior,” the man greeted with a light chuckle as his eyes swept over the room.
Zhang Zuonian continued, “You’re new students, so you need more training. Hence, you’ll be doing some of the trivial, menial missions the academy gave us.”
Ye Wanwan’s lips twitched. Aren’t they just here to freaking bully new students…?
“What do you mean you’ll give them to us?” A new student coldly said, “They’re missions the school gave you, not us. Why should we help you do them?”
“That’s right. We have our own missions to do. It’s not like you’ll pay us to do missions for you.”
“You, come here.” Zhang Zuonian smiled brightly and hooked his finger at the mercenary doubting him.
“What?” The new student walked forward.
Slap!
Zhang Zuonian didn’t say anything. With a smile still on his face, he ruthlessly slapped the new student on the face.
The crisp sound echoed in the room, and the new student spun in his spot from the force of the slap.
“You just came to the school, and you’re only a new student, but you’re already talking back to your seniors?” Zhang Zuonian asked with a smile.
Blood trickled out of the new student’s lips, and he clutched his face but didn’t dare to say anything more.
Upon seeing no other questioning, Zhang Zuonian and his cohorts nodded with satisfaction. “This is how it should be. New students should be afraid of hardship and should do more things within their capabilities and train themselves. This is for your own good.”
“Senior Brother is right! My sister and I absolutely agree with you. You should tell us whatever orders you have, Senior Brother, and we assure you we’ll finish them!”
Zhou Tao and Zhou Fu walked in front of Zhang Zuonian and nodded cheerfully.
“Very good.” Zhang Zuonian’s lips curled up. “How about this? You two performed well, so you’ll help me monitor these people. You’ll come and inform me about anyone who’s disobedient and unwilling to do the missions. Understood?”
Zhou Tao and Zhou Fu became joyful. That’s not a mission at all! It’s too simple! It looks like Zhang Zuonian is feeling merciful after noticing our compliance.
“Understood. Don’t worry, Senior Brother Zhang, we’ll definitely accomplish our mission!” Zhou Tao nodded frantically.
“As for the rest of you…” Zhang Zuonian looked at everyone else and issued a handful of average difficulty D-rank daily missions.
After becoming a C-rank mercenary, you had to finish daily missions everyday, and some C-rank mercenaries would toss these missions to D-rank mercenaries. Most D-rank mercenaries wouldn’t dare to object and would do as instructed.
