Chapter 1980 - 1561: Strength Speaks, Winner Takes All! (Part 2)

Jin Luoyi spoke of his love for this place, swung his sleeve immediately, and said in a deep voice, "If the Mercenary Alliance operates like this, wouldn’t it be ruining its own reputation? If so, I’m afraid I wouldn’t dare to hire anyone from the Mercenary Alliance as a guard; when people from all trades can join the Mercenary Alliance, then the Alliance must be in decline!"

"Young Master Jin, you’ve overreacted!" The young man from the Mercenary Alliance, upon hearing this, immediately stepped forward, clasped his fists, and explained, "The Mercenary Alliance is originally a mix of people from all trades. We have recruited for hundreds of years based only on strength and nothing else. Moreover, it’s our Mercenary Alliance’s honor that people like Wang Quan safely escorted you to Smelting City!"

Here, the young man straightened his back, and with a solemn expression, said, "Young Master Jin is indeed an honored guest of our Mercenary Alliance, but even so, if Young Master Jin continues to boast in front of our Alliance’s gate, ruining the noble reputation of our Mercenary Alliance, not even Elder Jin will be able to protect you!"

"You!" Upon hearing this, Young Master Jin’s face immediately showed a flush of anger and frustration, knowing that it was improper to flaunt in front of the Mercenary Alliance. However, isn’t he just trying to embarrass Gu Changsheng and his companions?

But, how could Jin Luoyi have guessed that the gatekeeping young man wouldn’t give him any face and instead gave him even greater embarrassment!

"Fine! Rebellion! I’ve remembered you!" Jin Luoyi pointed at the young man for a long while before finally speaking through clenched teeth.

Gu Changsheng witnessed firsthand the confrontation between Jin Luoyi and the young man, involuntarily casting a sideways glance at the young man. From the young man’s tone, it was clear that this Young Master Jin had some backing in the Mercenary Alliance, yet the young man was unimpressed!

He was rather a person with some backbone, a very upright individual.

"Excuse me, to interrupt, I heard you mention earlier that the Mercenary Alliance recruits based only on strength. Is this true or not?" Gu Changsheng blinked his eyes, finally speaking during the gap in the confrontation between the young man and Jin Luoyi.

Damn, what’s the fuss about, settling their accommodation issue is what matters!

Has nobody noticed that she’s been worn out this whole day, her legs are skinny!

"Of course, the hundred-year-old rules of the Mercenary Alliance cannot be false. The Alliance speaks only through strength. As long as you have strength, you can become a mercenary of the Alliance and take on tasks of varying levels!" The young man’s name was Yong Shu, a native of Smelting City with a straightforward nature, and he disliked people like Jin Luoyi who bully with power.

"Haha, this bunch of ragtag wants to join the Mercenary Alliance, why don’t they take a look at themselves to see if they have what it takes!" Jin Luoyi sneered coldly upon hearing this.

Gu Changsheng ignored Jin Luoyi’s sneering remark, clasped his fists toward Yong Shu, and said, "Then according to the rules, we want to join the Mercenary Alliance."

"To join the Mercenary Alliance, you must defeat existing experts within the Alliance and take their place to become a mercenary." Yong Shu, upon hearing this, hesitated for a moment and said, "There are currently eight hundred and thirty registered mercenaries in the Alliance; you can freely choose whom to challenge based on their ranking. Also, if you want the child with you to enjoy the benefits provided by the Alliance, he also needs to defeat someone."

Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but glance at Baby Jin Bao.

Baby Jin Bao nestled joyfully in Yuan Bao’s embrace, twirling his fingers merrily, but upon hearing this, his little head dropped even lower!

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. Let Baby Jin Bao compete with the mercenaries?

Stop joking!

Baby Jin Bao is a Spirit of the Mountain! Gu Changsheng had never seen him in action, but considering he springs from the Spirit of the Mountain itself, if he started moving and caused an earthquake, never mind the Mercenary Alliance not being able to handle such a reality, even Gu Changsheng wouldn’t be able to handle it!

"Forget it, he’s still young; I wonder if one of us can fight two, could that substitute for him being qualified?" Gu Changsheng pondered for a moment and then opened up to negotiate.

Among the people in the Mercenary Alliance, regardless of their skills, we have our evildoers at home to help us, fighting two at once is naturally no problem!

"Naturally, if there truly is an expert who can face two opponents, then that child would indeed be qualified. The Mercenary Alliance looks only at strength; as long as the strength matches, naturally you could take their place!" Yong Shu nodded upon hearing this.

The Mercenary Alliance, unlike other places, takes on dangerous tasks like entering the Divine Mount Qilian for treasure hunting. The hired mercenaries naturally need to be as strong as possible.

In truth, within the Mercenary Alliance, those with strong prowess are in high demand. This fact is something that Gu Changsheng and his companions, who have not yet entered the Alliance, are unaware of!

"In that case, according to what you said earlier, the six bodyguards escorting this young master are also members of your Mercenary Alliance?" Zhou Mu, upon hearing this, looked at Yong Shu, pointed at Wang Quan and his men behind Jin Luoyi, and asked in a deep voice.

"Exactly, the mercenaries of the Alliance are ranked into Class A, B, C, and D teams, and Wang Quan’s team, within the Alliance, belongs to a Class B mercenary team!" Yong Shu, hearing this, nodded, quickly understood the meaning behind Zhou Mu’s words, and hastily replied...
