On a promontory a few miles away from the town, the sea breeze blows, the sea surface sparkles, and the scenery is very beautiful.
"Master, I have been able to successfully refine the card. I will not let you down today. I will definitely avenge you."
Li Yin's thin body kowtowed three times to a tomb made of rubble. A low-level card that had just been successfully drawn was tightly held in his hand.
"Shadow, let's go! It's too late!"
In the distance, another young man who was as tall as a bull shouted Li Yin's nickname and kept waving.
Li Yin then turned around with determination, smiled at Mu Mu who was waiting for him, and walked together in the direction of White Tiger City.
————————
Baihu City is crowded with people. In recent days, the Card Making Guild and the Battle Card Association have been recruiting people. There are seven small towns and dozens of small towns around Baihu City. All those who want to stand out and honor their ancestors will rush to Baihu City on this day.
See tests according to respective abilities.
Once you are hired by a card making guild or battle card association, at least you don’t have to worry about food and clothing.
Li Yin and Mu Mu have grown up in an orphanage since childhood. They are not mediocre in the small White Cat Town. They have some talents. The difference is that the strong Mu Mu wants to become the royal card who fights every day.
Li Yin, who is relatively thin, aspires to become a card maker.
After entering White Tiger City, Mu Mu went to the battle card meeting. Logically speaking, Mu Mu would never be eliminated with his body.
Li Yin looked at the card inspection machine that was getting closer and closer, feeling a little worried in his heart. After all, he had studied with the old card maker for three full years, and it was only after the old card maker died of illness that he reluctantly checked in the day before yesterday.
Successfully created the lowest level F-combat skill card.
Although the card pattern is extremely perfect, it is the first time to refine it, so it is lacking in other aspects.
"F-level combat skill card 'Fire Snake', the mental strength test is normal, the card holder is a card maker, the overall evaluation of the card is F, eliminated!"
Just when Li Yin was thinking wildly, a middle-aged card maker in front of him was eliminated.
Li Yin looked at the F-level combat skill card in the opponent's hand with confusion. The uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense, and the confidence he had before coming had slowly disappeared.
Although there is only half a level difference between F and F-, there is a huge difference in power. Even the opponent failed. Li Yin no longer has much confidence in the F-'s combat skill card "Electric Stab" in his hand.
Amidst the anxiety, it was Li Yin's turn.
"Why are there so many beggars this year! Where is our card-making guild?"
Before Li Yin could insert the card in his hand into the inspection machine in front of him, a voice full of ridicule came from the opposite side of Li Yin.
Li Yin subconsciously raised his head and saw a fat man in gorgeous clothes looking up and down at Li Yin and the other people behind him with disdain.
Immediately Li Yin came to his senses and realized that the beggar the other party was talking about was actually him!
The veins on his forehead jumped, and a surge of anger already welled up in his heart. Just a glance at the two little purple and gold stars on the fat man's chest showed that he was a two-star card maker who could make E-level cards.
.
Even if Li Yin becomes a low-level card maker, there is still a big gap between him and his opponent. There is only one in a thousand people among the most junior and lowest one-star card makers, but those who can be promoted to two-star card makers
There may only be ten of those one thousand one-star card makers.
So Li Yin finally endured it, and glanced at the other person's fat face with firm eyes, firmly engraving the other person's appearance in his mind, and his eyes stayed on his nameplate, but Li Yin felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
I was dumbfounded.
The memory returned to that night again. Li Yin and Mu Mu returned from hunting. When Li Yin returned to the residence of his master, the old card maker, he saw his master lying in a pool of blood. In the dense forest not far away
Two rays of light flashed through it.
"Zhang Peng! If you can't keep up, I won't care about you!"
Li Yin didn't know who the murderer was, but the vague angry words were still clearly remembered in Li Yin's mind.
And the nameplate on the chest of the man in front of me is exactly the word "Zhang Peng"!
Li Yin glared at Zhang Peng's face, engraved his image in his mind, resisted the impulse, took a deep breath, and inserted the "Electric Light Stab" into the card slot.
"Staring at me? Who do you think you are? A master card maker! A piece of trash with the lowest-level F-card in his hand! A paralyzed, trash-like beggar wants to be a card maker? It's ridiculous!"
The fat man named Zhang Peng was also an extremely sensitive person. When Li Yin stared at him, he immediately felt an unknown fire in his heart. It seemed to him that a beggar dared to be so arrogant, and the extremely unpleasant insults immediately came out.
Jumped out.
"F-level combat skill card 'Electric Stab', the mental strength test is normal, the card holder is a card maker, the overall evaluation of the card is D, passed!"
But as soon as Zhang Peng finished speaking, the green signal light of the card inspection machine came on.
"Remember, my name is Li Yin. Now, in your eyes, I am a low-level card maker like rubbish, but one day I will surpass you! If... you will pay the price for everything you have done!"
Although Li Yin didn't know if it was a coincidence that he had the same name, or if the person in front of him was the same Zhang Peng, Li Yin subconsciously felt that he was the same person as before.
Li Yin knew that he was indeed not as good as Zhang Peng now, but Li Yin believed that with his hard-working character, he would be able to succeed.
Regardless of whether the Zhang Peng in front of him is that person or not, Li Yin has already regarded him as that person as his current target. Li Yin now urgently needs a motivation that can keep him moving forward.
"Haha, I'm so scared~ A trash like a beggar dares to say harsh words! Do you think you are already a card maker in the card making guild?"
Zhang Peng smiled instead of being angry, and looked at Li Yin's expression becoming more mocking. In Li Yin's cold expression, Zhang Peng's expression changed, and he lit Li Yin's nose and cursed.
"Silly, I'm telling you! Because there are too many beggars like you here to eat and drink! Starting from this year, a review will be added to the assessment, which requires on-site refining of cards! Only those who pass the review can officially become members of the Card Making Guild
Card maker! You? You’re still a little green!”
"By the way, let me tell you a statistic! A comprehensive score of D is the lowest threshold for passing the preliminary examination! It only took one morning! At least three hundred people have already reached this standard!"
Suddenly, Li Yin's expression became full of frost. The people around him who were not sure what he was talking about could hardly believe their ears. They had never heard of the Card Making Guild having a review!
Li Yin's face became extremely ugly when he thought about the mental energy and materials required to make a finished card.
Being able to make the lowest level card "Electric Light Stab" has already used up all the materials left by the old card maker to Li Yin. If there is still a review, where can I find it?
What made Li Yin even more embarrassed was that he had just said harsh words and was hit hard. At this time, Li Yin wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"Don't worry, if you just make F-level cards, the common materials will be provided by the union. Of course, some secret techniques and special materials can also be used, but you have to prepare them yourself. The requirements for passing the review are relatively strict, mainly based on the card maker.
The technique, card-making success rate, and completion time are not without a chance."
Fortunately, not everyone has the same virtue as Zhang Peng. An assessor behind Li Yin obviously knew the market and saw Li Yin's embarrassment, so he whispered behind Li Yin.
"Don't waste time, go and write out this material application form and give it to me later. Come for review tomorrow."
A staff member standing next to the inspection machine glared at Zhang Peng, handed a material application form to Li Yin, pushed Li Yin aside, and then motioned for the next assessor to come forward.
"Future card maker~ See you tomorrow~ I'm waiting for you to surpass me~"
Zhang Peng was obviously still a little wary of this staff member who was also a two-star card maker. He sneered at Li Yin before walking into the crowd.
Li Yin stared at Zhang Peng's departure as if he wanted to spit out fire.
"This is the difference in levels! If I was also a card maker and my level was higher than him, would he dare to do this to me?"
"I must become a better card maker than him! He stepped on me hard!"
Li Yin stared intently at Zhang Peng's figure gradually disappearing into the crowd, the belief in his heart becoming more and more firm.
After glancing at the material application form, Li Yin strode out of the card making guild and left the Card Making Guild with only a few boxes of F-level card-making materials.
Others left behind a dashing figure.
However, after Li Yin left the card making guild, his expression turned bitter.
Although the card making guild could provide the common materials for review, on that table, Li Yin did not see the most important material for making "Electric Light Stab", the hard work of the fire-type monster Fire Bear!
The Fire Bear is an E-level monster, and the hard work is the ultimate top-level existence among E-level materials. Because free and fresh hard work can play a catalytic role, it is extremely unsuitable to preserve it. Naturally, it will not appear in the F-level material list.
The F-level "Electric Stab" actually doesn't require Huo Xiong's hard work.
But Li Yin's master is a card maker who likes to delve into strange and weird methods, and he has developed many weird methods that can improve the success rate and power of low-level cards.
Using the blood of E-class fire bears to slow down the condensation speed of magic ink and increase the success rate of card making is one of them.
In order to test whether he could really independently refine F-level combat skill cards, Li Yin had already used the last of the sealed and stored Fire Bear efforts.
Where should Li Yin look for it now?
"Shadow! Passed easily! I was hired! Even the F+ cards are easy to use in my hands! Starting tomorrow, I will officially join the battle card club! What about you? Look at your expression...didn't you pass?"
Just when Li Yin was in a daze, a strong big hand hit him hard on the shoulder. Mu Mu's face was full of pride, and he showed two rows of white teeth at Li Yin.
But when Mu Mu saw Li Yin's expression, he was stunned for a moment, and then scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Mu Mu, do me a favor tonight."
Li Yin's expression hesitated for a while, and then the scene of Zhang Peng's proud face and the master lying in a pool of blood flashed through his mind, and Li Yin's eyes immediately flashed with a trace of persistence.
At this time, Li Yin didn't know what kind of butterfly effect his decision at this moment had triggered.
