Douluo: Eternal Life from the Legend of Dragon King

Chapter 21 Don't Talk Nonsense
"ah????"

Chen Xi was stunned when he heard Yali say that he could use her back door, and then several question marks appeared in his head.

This... sounds a little bit wrong?

No, there is nothing wrong with what you said. The one who is wrong is me. I have misunderstood.

After all, Chen Xi is not a six-year-old child. When he died in his previous life, he was only a teenager, right in the adolescence.

Coupled with the information baptism of the Internet age...it can be said that Chen Xi knows a lot, and perhaps some adults don't know as much as he does.

Moreover, Chen Xi is just a normal person. He has all the emotions and desires that a person should have. It is normal for him to think about all kinds of things in his mind.

This also led to the fact that even though Chen Xi knew what Yali meant, he still associated it with other things at the first time.

Chen Xi glanced at Yali, who was sitting next to him with a perfect figure and appearance. Did she just say that she could give him whatever he wanted?
If I want her...

No no no!

This is a topic that cannot even be thought about... at least not now.

"Now, here you go."

On the other side, Yali, who had no idea what Chen Xi was thinking, took out a golden card with very fine workmanship from her storage soul guide and handed it to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi came back to his senses after hearing Yali's voice and reached out to take the card.

The card feels cold in my hand. It must be made of some precious metal, right?
"With this card, no matter if your spirit power is not up to standard or you fail the assessment, you can become a formal student of Shrek with this card."

"But the conditions and restrictions when you make a wish will increase, and the upper limit of the reward will become lower~"

Only after Chen Xi took the card did Yali begin to explain the purpose of the card.

This card is the guarantee that Yali gave to Chen Xi. As long as Chen Xi did not do anything harmful to the world and was not an evil soul master, no one could stop him from becoming a formal student of Shrek.

Yun Ming can’t do it either, let alone others.

After all, Yali still has a lot of say in Shrek Academy, but she is a low-key person and basically does not use the power in her hands. Even the title of deputy leader of Poseidon Pavilion is more like a nominal title.

In the eyes of many people on the mainland, Shrek may need Yali, but Yali definitely does not need Shrek...

With Yali's identity, she can have enormous power in any organization in this world, even the Holy Spirit Church is no exception.

After all, her reputation is too good, and the strength of a healing Super Douluo is very important.

So after Yun Ming brought Yali back to Shrek, everyone else on the continent was more or less resentful towards Yun Ming.

Let’s not talk about anything else. Just say that Yali is the goddess of so many people on the continent. How could they not feel resentful when Yun Ming snatched their goddess away?

"Unconditional admission?"

Chen Xi raised his eyebrows when he heard Yali say this, and then asked.

"Can I sell this then? Or give it to someone else?"

The unconditional opportunity to enter the number one college on the continent is a rare treasure.

It is even more priceless for those rich kids who don’t have the conditions to be admitted to Shrek Academy.

If this were put on the market for sale, it could be easily sold for hundreds of millions of federal coins, right?
If it could really sell, he would not even bother writing the novel and would not have to make any money in the early stages.

"Of course, I'll give it to you, you can do with it as you please."

Yali was stunned when she heard Chen Xi's question. She didn't expect that after getting the card to unconditionally join Shrek Academy, the first thing she thought of was to sell it.

"But think about it, this is your 'safety net'. If you sell it, I won't make up for it if something unexpected happens when you enroll in school later~"

Yali emphasized the word "minimum guarantee". Chen Xi shook his head with some regret after hearing it.

Yali was right. If I sold the guaranteed card, and something unexpected happened when I applied for Shrek in the future, and I lost the chance to make a wish, wouldn't that be a loss? I couldn't lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds. It seemed that I had to wait until I joined Shrek before considering selling this card.

I still have to earn money myself...

"Are you short of money?"

Seeing Chen Xi's regretful look, Yali became interested and approached Chen Xi and asked.

She saw that Chen Xi was well dressed and had given Naer tens of thousands of federal coins before, so she thought that Chen Xi must be a rich kid who inherited his parents' estate.

This made Yali more determined to let Chen Xi go and train him. After all, the biggest expense for a soul master in the early stages is the purchase of souls.

But soul masters of his level only buy souls that are ten or a hundred years old. These don't cost much, so Chen Xi should be able to buy them.

But now it seems that I was wrong?

Yali frowned when she thought of this. It was not a good thing to not be able to buy a soul.

“It’s lacking, but it doesn’t seem to be lacking either.”

After thinking about his own situation, Chen Xi said hesitantly.

After deducting the federal coins he gave to Naer, he still has more than 1.1 million federal coins left.

This money is enough for his future living and to purchase a hundred-year soul, which is what he wants to learn as a second career, such as forging and making soul guides.

If you want to learn these second jobs, you must pay money before someone will teach you, and second jobs are very expensive.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi is not short of money, but still has to find ways to make money.

"Speak nicely, are you short of money?"

After hearing Chen Xi's nonsense literature, three black lines appeared on Yali's head. She knocked on Chen Xi's head with a dark face and said angrily.

She was just worried that Chen Xi couldn't afford to buy a soul, but Chen Xi happened to give her one.

Who did this unfortunate kid learn this nonsense literature from?

"The money I have is just enough to buy the soul and live on afterwards, but I want to learn forging, so I won't have enough money."

After being physically hit, Chen Xi answered honestly.

"Is that so?"

After hearing Chen Xi say that he wanted to learn forging, Yali nodded thoughtfully.

Blacksmith is a very important profession in this era. The production of battle armor, mecha, etc. cannot be separated from blacksmiths.

After all, the soul guide formations on the mechas and battle armors are not something that ordinary metals can withstand and satisfy. At this time, blacksmiths are needed to forge these metals, remove impurities from the metals, and allow the metals to withstand the soul guide formations.

Because of this reason, high-level blacksmiths are extremely valuable on the continent, and most people are respectful to them.

Generally speaking, blacksmithing is a good profession in this era, and it is quite normal for Chen Xi to learn blacksmithing.

But then again, learning forging is a very expensive thing. Not to mention the tuition fees for finding a master, it is very easy to damage the metal when practicing forging.

The cost of purchasing metal is very expensive, and it is really difficult to learn forging if you are not from a wealthy family.

Besides... learning forging requires talent. It would be a waste of money for someone without talent to learn forging.

Yali glanced at Chen Xi, but didn't say anything unlucky or discouraging to Chen Xi.

After all, Chen Xi hasn't started learning forging yet, and it's still unknown whether he has a talent for forging, so we can't draw a conclusion too early.

And if the child has ideas, just encourage and silently support him/her, unless the child does something wrong, then the adult needs to correct the child.
