Chapter 391 Judging Criteria
Wuhun City, a small botanical garden in the west of the city.
This is a small botanical garden, surrounded by bamboo fences to contain as many types of vegetation as possible.
But life is always eager to find another way out.
So even though there are fences, there are still many flamboyant flower branches stretching out their bodies, showing their beauty and fragrance to the passing people.
Whenever this happens, the owner of the botanical garden will be glad that he did not spend more soul coins to buy the garden in a relatively central location in the city but near the edge of the city.
Otherwise, it would take him a lot of effort just to cut off the branches that go out of the garden every day. If he doesn't do it, he will probably receive a fine from the street office.
Because its vegetation is too lush and extends out of the street, blocking pedestrian passage and causing trouble to the city's traffic order.
But in this place now, there are few pedestrians, and the neighbors also like its vegetation and flowers. Even if some branches of the little flowers that are unwilling to be lonely stretch out, they will not receive complaints from others, as long as they remember to take care of them once or twice a week.
That’s it.
The director of the botanical garden holds a bucket of water in his hand and is watering many flowers.
On one side of the botanical garden is a small restaurant that can accommodate not many people. However, due to the special and vibrant environment, there are not many empty seats on weekdays, and reservations are often required.
Hassan sat on a bench made of woven rattan. He moved his eyes away from the huge floating balloon in the sky. He picked up a piece of osmanthus cake with the chopsticks in his hand and put it into his mouth. The aroma of osmanthus mixed with the cake.
The rather soft and waxy texture made her immediately feel the taste of autumn blooming in her mouth.
Putting a hand on his face, Hassan showed an expression of comfort and enjoyment.
The big balloon flying in the sky seems to be a new gadget developed by Shengongdao in Wuhun City some time ago. It is quite interesting. It can float in the sky and does not require soul power. It is tied to the ground with a string like a kite.
Opposite her, Baimao's clerk Xiaoli was also here. She looked at the surrounding environment with her eyes from time to time and took a bite of the pastries on the plate.
Baimao was closed today, and she was dragged by her boss to the botanical garden in the west of the city to inspect the business.
According to the boss, it’s time to innovate the desserts in the store, so go to other stores to find inspiration!
But Xiaoli knew that the boss was just greedy and wanted to eat other good things.
But don’t mention it, the scented tea cakes made by the owner of this botanical garden taste really good, maybe it has something to do with the raw materials here...
Observing the dense and well-defined vegetation and flowers around, Xiaoli thought so.
It is said that the owner of the botanical garden is still a soul master, from the plant system, but his soul power is not strong, and he is only around tenth level at his current age.
Thinking of the gentle old man with white hair and black-framed eyes, Xiaoli never imagined that he could be a soul master.
But after all, this is Wuhun City, and it seems that it is a normal thing to be a soul master.
After finishing the pastries on her plate, Xiaoli saw that her boss was still taking orders, but she didn't have much stomach left, so she took out the newspaper she bought this morning and started reading.
Hassan swallowed the cake in his mouth, and picked up the scented tea on the table while the fragrance was still lingering in his mouth. The faint floral fragrance flowed in his throat, it was so comfortable.
Wuhun City is really a magical place. The longer you stay here, the more obvious this feeling becomes in Hassan's heart.
There is no useless spirit, only useless users.
This sentence was circulated on the mainland a long time ago. At least when Hassan was young, she heard people around her say this.
In Hassan's opinion, this sentence is correct, but it is also incorrect.
Martial spirits are ever-changing, and indeed each one has its own unique function. If the judging criteria are diversified, there will indeed be no useless martial spirits, because although many martial spirits cannot directly fight, they are indeed good in life and production.
There is always an area where it can work.
Unfortunately, the current Douluo Continent is not like this. There is basically only one criterion for judging martial souls, just like its name.
Perhaps the moment martial spirits were named "Martial Spirits", their military value had become the most prominent and outstanding criterion in people's minds, and everything else had to be put behind them.
Under this standard, there are useless martial souls.
Although it is cruel, it is the fact.
For example, the boss of this botanical garden has talent, but not much. Now he is over sixty years old, and he is only a level 12 soul master, and his future will basically stop at this level; he has martial soul, but not strong.
The only ability is to accelerate the growth of plants, and cannot even control them.
If we go by the traditional standards for judging martial arts, the director of the Botanical Garden is a useless soul master and possesses a useless martial soul.
Because he has no fighting ability, he is at the absolute bottom in the soul master world, and no one is willing to accept a useless soul master.
But in Wuhun City, the situation is a little different.
With his ability to accelerate crop growth, he was arranged by the bishop in the west of the city to work at the Botanical Research Institute, and for the first time he gained respect from his colleagues.
Later, after successfully creating a crop named hybrid rice by Bibi Dong, he resigned from the research institute and relied on his own savings to build this botanical garden to spend his later years.
Hassan saw more criteria for judging Wuhun in Wuhun City.
It's not just about combat power, but also includes many other abilities.
For example, the gardener who can accelerate the growth of plants, the forecaster in the east of the city who can predict the weather, the reservoir manager in the south of the city who can purify water...
None of them are good at fighting, but with their unique abilities, they have all found their place in Wuhun City.
If this diverse standard can continue to develop, one day in the future, when combat ability is no longer the most valued, Wuhun's unique abilities can be used more in life...
What will life be like then?
It should be better than it is now...Hassan guessed this.
She is extremely looking forward to what the world will look like after Wuhun City continues to grow and develop and has an impact on the surrounding areas and even the mainland.
While drinking scented tea, the corners of Hassan's mouth turned up slightly.
"Boss, take a look, the Wuhundian tabloid said that the wedding of Tiandou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Wuhundian Ye Lingling will be held next month!"
Xiaoli opened the newspaper in her hand to Hassan, pointed to a piece of news on it and said with some surprise.
The wedding of Prince Tiandou is a big event, and it is also an association with Wuhun Palace!
Presumably many people will go to watch the ceremony, and then stay for a month or two to participate in the subsequent Soul Master Competition.
That's right, the continent-wide elite soul master competition that is held every five years is about to begin again.
Hassan looked at the news recorded in the newspaper, his eyes moved, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
Wuhundian tabloid is a newspaper that Wuhundian started publishing a year ago. It is used to report on some recent major events in the mainland, some policies recently promulgated by Wuhundian or will be promulgated soon, and some serials by some authors.
Novels, current affairs reviews, etc.
It is sold in Wuhun City and Wuhun Palace branches in various places. Now many people like to buy a copy on weekdays to see what has happened in the mainland recently, or to catch up on their own stories and talk about the new ones.
Commentary on current affairs.
Xiaoli's favorite is the work of a writer named Gokil. She feels that she can get a lot of power from his stories.
Hassan also felt that this person's story and comments were well written, and she seemed to remember that this Gao Keer... seemed to know that boy Fan Yun...
Maybe in the future, I can ask Xiaozi Yun to let Xiaoli meet her favorite author.
But when he saw the wedding notice that occupied the entire main section of the tabloid, Hassan felt a chill in his heart and sighed slowly.
Chaos is coming...
Fan Yun, I hope you won’t disappoint me...
Chapter completed!
