Li Junwei only reacted to the situation after being stunned for a few seconds. He could not help but snicker in disdain. āYouāre another one of the number one proās admirerās, huh? You also played using the useless person and fruit knife combo? Let me tell you, Iāve already defeated eight people using useless people this week.ā
Qin Guan thought about it. āThenā¦ letās hope I donāt become the ninth?ā
Li Junwei was amused. He swung his wooden sword. āAlright. I wonāt say anything about how you want to fight. Watch properly. Even though this is a wooden sword, when it hits you, it still hurts!ā
Li Junwei rushed at him with his wooden sword.
The wooden swords were specially made and were rather sturdy. Since the Transcended Gamersā had greater strength, when the wooden sword really struck a personās body, the Transcended Gamers whose pain tolerance was weaker would also feel pain.
āIāll have to control my strength a little. I canāt hit this boy so much that he gets angry. Itāll just show that Chenxing Esports Club is not friendly to newcomersā¦ā 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 some force was used in the attack.
If his attacker had used a sharp weapon, the cut would have been quite deep.
Li Junweiās 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. āDo we still need to fight for five minutes?ā
Leader Liu was shocked. It took him a long moment to wrap his head around what he had just seen.
āWhat just happened? An official member was just pwnedā¦ā
Leader Liu was just a normal person, but even he had seen that Li Junweiās 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 Junweiās throat.
Leader Liu did not manage to see whether the youth had really sliced Li Junweiās throat. After all, Qin Guanās movements were too fast, but from how flabbergasted Li Junwei looked while he touched his neck, the sword should have reached his neck.
āDonāt need to. Please come with me. Little Li, do continue with your training.ā
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.
āYes, itās this feelingā¦ but what exactly just happened?ā
ā¦
The duo came to a parlor. The next thing they had to finalize was Qin Guanās salary. šš³šš²šøeššÆššÆeš.cšš
āWe will pay you according to the salary I offered earlier. Itās not that we donāt want to offer you a higher pay, but the Parapsychology Association has standardized the pay offered to all Transcended Gamers in clubs. We canāt do anything about this.
āBut you should have seen our clubās advantage compared to the other clubs. One, our environment is better, and two, we wonāt force you to train. Weāre rather lax in our management compared to them.
āPeople like you can move about freely in the clubs. You donāt have to come every day to work. Iāll assign you to a team later, and when we allocate a mission to your team, just do it.ā
āThatās good.ā When Qin Guan heard that he did not need to come for work every day, he was rather happy. If he had to spar every day, he would be wasting away his lifeā¦
Qin Guan didnāt swiftly accept the offer, however. āPlease let me go back and think about it.ā
Leader Liu nodded. āOf course. But please give us an answer as soon as possible.ā
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 same time.
It had to be said that Mister Keās 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 droolingā¦
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. āTruly, itās as they say, no matter what profession it is, someone in that profession will emerge as the best. Heās asleep, but he didnāt forget about his workā¦ā
ā¦
When he returned home, Qin Guan asked Du Wei whether all clubs offered a standardized salary.
Du Weiās 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. Thatās the rule set by the Parapsychology Association.] šššāÆšøšš£šš°Ī½eĘ.cšš¦
This verified certain aspects of the contract. Based on the Parapsychology Associationās demands, the clubs could only form short-term contracts with Transcended Gamers. They could not have the Transcended Gamers sign long-term contracts that would tie them to the clubs for five or six years. If Transcended Gamers ran into anything that dissatisfied them during the period of time they worked with the clubs, they could leave at anytime they wanted.
This made it obvious that the Parapsychology Association treated all the Transcended Gamers 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 Gamersā freedom.
Du Wei ensured Qin Guan that as long as he wanted to go to the Parapsychology Association, he could do so at anytime 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 time 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 Gamers 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 some 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 time being. Sometimes, the association would have the reserve members spar against each other and remind them to remember 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 members. They were investigators who were similar to Du Wei. They guided the reserve members 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 Weiās skills, he could not teach Qin Guan anythingā¦
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 someone who was strong enough to make it valuable.
In a certain secret location in Beijing, Du Wei suddenly sneezed while reporting on his work.
āStrange, whoās talking bad about me? I didnāt offend anyone latelyā¦ā
He was quite puzzled.
