Chapter 99: You can be a friend, but never an enemy!
Tang Yuan smiled naively, and the two of them went to the registration location and paid the fee. They were told that the competition would start in three days.
The two left the arena and came to the center of Tianyuan City.
Compared with Qinglong Town, Tianyuan City is much more prosperous and lively in terms of size and population.
Lu Feng brought Tang Yuan to a tavern with a trace of nostalgia on his face.
"Go in, eat some food, and stay here tonight."
When Tang Yuan heard this, he looked up at the tavern. There was an extremely luxurious and noble plaque hanging directly above the door, saying: "You are full of the building?"
Lu Feng nodded and responded: "Jun Manlou, even though it is just a tavern and inn, the people behind it are the Jun family, the top secular family in the mainland."
Tang Yuan was shocked and asked: "Is the Jun family very powerful?"
Lu Feng said with some respect: "Ordinary people will spend their entire lives unable to get out of the Jun family's sphere of influence."
Tang Yuan was stunned: "Doesn't it cover the entire continent just like the spiritual prison?"
Lu Feng explained: "It can be said that the spiritual prison affects the entire continent openly, while the Jun family affects the entire continent secretly."
Tang Yuan had a trace of doubt on his face: "How can the power of this tavern and inn alone be so terrifying?"
Lu Feng smiled: "Although the tavern and inn are small, they are complicated inside. You can be entrusted in the building and accept various black tasks that cannot be accepted in the spiritual prison. You can inquire about and sell various information and secrets. You can buy, sell and consign various rare spiritual treasures.
…”
Tang Yuan understood something and continued to ask: "Isn't the person who calls the shots in the Jun family as powerful as the person who founded the spiritual prison?"
"This is too long ago to be considered. It is rumored that Ling Yu and the Jun family are products of the same era. They existed at the beginning of the Tianxuan calendar. Some people speculate that the two founders are closely related."
The two of them walked and chatted until they arrived at Junman Building and found a clean and quiet place to sit down.
The waiter immediately served the menu enthusiastically: "Two guests, our restaurant has recently served several delicious dishes, all of which are cooked by skilled chefs and are delicious."
"Spiritual chef? Cooking?" Tang Yuan was surprised. He had heard his father mention that he had heard of this profession, but he knew little about it.
Lu Feng explained: "The so-called spiritual chefs are those chefs who integrate their spiritual power into the food for others to taste. Anyone who has good practice and is proficient in cooking can become a spiritual chef."
Tang Yuan picked up the menu and flipped through it casually, naming the dishes one after another: "Stewed Jiao with Bear's Paw, Smoked Rabbit with Carp Wolf, Nine-Headed Oil Fox, Mengling Sand Turtle..."
The waiter quickly memorized the names of the dishes one after another.
There was also a hint of surprise on Lu Feng's face, not because he cared about money, but because the dishes Tang Yuan ordered were all big fish and meat.
This was a huge difference from his previous food preferences in Qinglong Town.
After reporting the names of all the dishes to the waiter, Lu Feng ordered him to hurry up and order the dishes.
Tang Yuan explained to Lu Feng softly: "For some reason, after refining the Black Dragon Pill, my appetite became very good and I always want to eat these big meats."
Lu Feng immediately woke up and realized that all the dishes Tang Yuan ordered were Black Dragon's favorites!
I can't help but feel a little dumbfounded. Is it possible that after cultivating this Beast Yuan Art, my preferences will be assimilated by the refined beast?
As the number one restaurant on the Xuantian Continent, Junmanlou served food very quickly. It didn't take long before the tables in front of Lu Feng and Tang Yuan were filled with all kinds of dishes.
"Boiled dragon with bear's paw, smoked rabbit with carp and wolf, nine-headed oil fox..."
Dishes exuding spiritual energy were served one after another, and Tang Yuan and Lu Feng couldn't help but use their chopsticks to devour them.
Tang Yuan chewed the meat in his mouth and shouted happily: "This little dragon meat is so fresh and delicious."
Lu Feng swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a smile: "These spiritual dishes are not only delicious, you can try to circulate the spiritual energy while eating them."
When Tang Yuan heard that he did as he was told, he was overjoyed, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The piece of meat entered the belly, the warmth surged deeply, and the spiritual energy started to circulate on its own."
Lu Feng explained: "This is the spiritual energy of the chef being integrated into the dishes. When we eat, we are sucking in the spiritual energy in disguise."
Tang Yuan said in astonishment: "Isn't that the same as the vampires? Absorbing other people's spiritual energy?"
Lu Feng corrected: "The vampires plundered and robbed them by force, but these spiritual dishes are not the same. His own spiritual energy can be restored after being cooked by the spiritual chef."
Tang Yuan nodded and swallowed several large pieces of meat again.
A dissatisfied voice sounded in the distance: "Let go, I took over this task first!"
"Do you understand the rules of Junmanlou? You can only accept the mission after you have obtained the token."
A young man wearing black and gray clothes responded, shaking a dark orange token in his hand.
Tang Yuan looked at the quarrel between the two in the distance and was a little confused, so he asked Lu Feng: "Old Lu... what are they robbing?"
Lu Feng pointed to a panel against the wall in the distance, "That's where Junmanlou assigns tasks. The various tokens hanging on the panel are marked with detailed information about the tasks, commissions, etc...
"The two of them most likely fell in love with the same mission and had a dispute."
Tang Yuan looked at the panel in the distance, with surprise flashing in his eyes: "What do those colorful tokens on the panel mean?"
Lu Feng explained: "From low to high, they represent the difficulty of the task and the total amount of commission remuneration. The seven-level tokens of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple correspond to the division of strength from the Seven Soul Realm to the Earth Soul Realm. Those two people
The orange tokens snatched correspond to the tasks that can be completed in the Spirit Gathering Realm."
Tang Yuan read it out while counting, and asked doubtfully: "Isn't there a token corresponding to the Heavenly Soul Realm?"
Lu Feng smiled and said: "The token corresponding to the Heavenly Soul Realm is black, but the cost of issuing tasks is too expensive, so it is not common."
Tang Yuan laughed with understanding. Yes, what kind of existence is the Heavenly Soul Realm? If you want to assign people from the Heavenly Soul Realm to help you, the price you pay is more than just a commission. At that level, money no longer matters.
"Where are you running?" The two noisy people ran towards Tang Yuan while fighting.
Just as he was about to hit Lu Feng and Tang Yuan at the table, Tang Yuan suddenly stood up and shouted at the two fighting men: "If you want to hit me, get out of here and fight me. I haven't even picked up the Mengling Sand Turtle yet."
Come up!"
The two of them were shocked by Tang Yuan's roar, and after sensing Tang Yuan's superior strength, they couldn't help but take a few steps back, and bumped into a strong man walking behind them.
"Fighting is strictly prohibited in Junmanlou!"
With a thunderous voice, Da Zhuang shouted at the two of them. He stretched his hands to the collars of the two of them, lifted them up like rabbits, and threw them onto the street outside.
Lu Feng and Tang Yuan looked at each other. Da Zhuang was obviously the steward of Jun Man Lou, but he didn't expect that a steward could also have the strength of the Condensing Pan Realm. Jun Man Lou was indeed very powerful.
When he got rid of the two fighting men, Da Zhuang had already taken back the tokens in their hands, walked back slowly, and hung them back on the wall.
After Da Zhuang left, Lu Feng's eyes still stayed on the panel.
Tang Yuan took advantage of the situation and looked over, his eyes a little more dignified.
I saw a man in black standing at the task panel and scanning the task panel. The man's face was firm and angular, and the cold and chilling aura exuding from his body made others afraid to approach.
He had forcibly carved out an empty space in Nuo Da, giving people a feeling of desolation and loneliness.
"Coal Condensation Realm..." Tang Yuan was a little dumbfounded. The man was no older than him in appearance, but his strength was much higher. The idleness in his heart retreated, and he became more serious.
"This..." The man's cold words rang out. The completed orange token in his hand was handed back to the man in charge of the task management, and he took another yellow card task.
The transformation from orange to yellow means that his own strength has improved by leaps and bounds.
The man's face was expressionless, his words were a bit indifferent, and his whole body was filled with a cold and murderous aura. The time from handing in the task to receiving the task was very short and neat. After receiving the commission and token, he did not stop and left in a hurry.
.
During the whole process, Lu Feng didn't even hear a complete sentence from him.
But that image of arrogance, perseverance, and indifference was deeply imprinted in his mind.
Lu Feng guessed to himself: "That person should be a bounty soul hunter from the surrounding area who specializes in making a living from tasks."
He looked at Tang Yuan.
He warned: "If you encounter such a person in the future, don't provoke him if you can."
Tang Yuan asked in confusion: "Why?"
Lu Feng explained seriously: "Most of the bounty hunters are people who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Their fighting methods are unscrupulous. If you offend them, it's best to kill them on the spot, otherwise you will be targeted by such people."
It will cause a lifetime of trouble."
"Especially that person just now, with his cold aura and sharp eyes like an eagle, he is definitely an extraordinary person."
"Such a person can be a friend, but never an enemy!"
Tang Yuan nodded, having a certain understanding of the soul hunter. He glanced at the mission wall and said, "Old Lu, what do you think... should we also take on a few missions and earn some rewards?"
Lu Feng shook his head, "To accept the mission, you need a strength token certified by the Spirit Prison. The procedures for other methods are a bit cumbersome, so we won't consider it for now."
…
The two of them finished eating and paid for the meal. The cost of the spiritual food was very expensive. After deducting the cost of going to Fenglindu, Lu Feng and the two of them had enough money to last in this Junmanlou for at most five days.
It is not that there are cheap inns for common people in Tianyuan City, but Lu Feng's temperament prefers to enjoy himself in time and never treats himself badly.
Life is proud to be thoroughly enjoyed themselves!
Accident or tomorrow...you never know which one will come first.
Eat it all, spend it all, such a free and easy life can be free and easy!
Tang Yuan was worried about the financial problem, so he hesitated and said: "Where can I hunt spirit beasts around here? Shall we kill a few of them in exchange for some soul coins?"
Lu Feng understood Tang Yuan's thoughts, "Don't be anxious. There will be plenty of opportunities when we go to the Spirit Prison. Our money is barely enough at the moment. After the Soul Tournament is over, there will be many rewards as long as we enter the top twenty."
Tang Yuan nodded: "I'm going to get a list of contestants tomorrow. I have an idea."
In the next three days, except for Tang Yuan who went out for a trip, the two of them were almost in Junmanlou the rest of the time.
After three days, Tang Yuan finally figured out one and a half moves based on his previous experience with beast elixirs.
