Chapter 1172 The Demon Hunter's Great Demon 17
Chapter 1172 The Demon Hunter's Great Demon 17
In order to make it easier to spend money in the future, Lingyao did not intend to hide the fact that she was drawing and reselling talismans.
However, not everything was said.
At least they didn't say they drew a bunch of talismans to sell.
He even drew a mid-grade talisman and sold it.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yeqing was even more surprised.
He had heard from other demon hunters that two promising talents had emerged from today's entrance examination, one of whom was Baili Qing'er, the young lady of the Baili family, who had long been considered a promising candidate.
Another one was Yu Lingyao, whom he brought with him.
Because of this incident, many demon hunters who weren't particularly close to him came up to chat with him and inquire about Ling Yao's background.
They couldn't believe that an ordinary commoner could possess such strong soul power and spiritual power.
It's estimated that no one could have imagined that Yu Lingyao not only drew a top-grade protective talisman.
He even kept a mid-grade talisman for himself.
Liu Yeqing looked at the little girl in front of him, who was not even as tall as his chest, and his eyes were full of admiration.
This little girl is destined for great things.
Therefore, Liu Yeqing took the initiative to tell her.
"After you go to the Demon Hunter Academy, if you need anything or are missing anything, just take it from me."
Those who can become demon hunters hold a very high position in the hearts of the people.
However, correspondingly, it is also very dangerous for demon hunters to go on missions. They may encounter a powerful demon at any time and be defeated.
Therefore, there are many people who want to win over a demon hunter as talented as Lingyao.
After all, having an extra powerful demon hunter means having an extra layer of protection.
Liu Yeqing is no exception.
At least, if Lingyao learns demon-catching skills in the future, he can accompany her on missions. After all, Lingyao and Fang Shui were already his own people.
I feel safe using it.
After briefly explaining to Lingyao and Fangshui the materials needed to become a demon hunter, and giving each of them five taels of silver to purchase them the next day, Liu Yeqing let them go back.
To become a demon hunter, you need to prepare a series of basic items such as talismans, cinnabar, and chicken blood.
The two taels of silver that the Demon Hunter Academy gave them were intended for the demon hunters selected from among the commoners.
They had enough to sell even the lowest-grade talismans and cinnabar, so that the children wouldn't be without tools when they were in class.
However, neither of them seemed to know the situation, and Liu Yeqing watched as they sent all the money back home.
They gave each of them five taels of silver.
After spending two days separately at the Demon Hunter Academy, Lingyao and Fangshui moved back in together.
Of all those who were dissatisfied with this matter, the one who was most dissatisfied was Fu Ling.
He angrily said he wanted to get Fang Shui.
Lingyao's forehead throbbed with excitement upon hearing this.
You hit a child too?
As a result, the other party was very self-righteous in binding them.
"By the standards of our demons, I'm still an infant. She can't even beat an infant, that's her problem."
Lingyao was speechless upon hearing the thunderous words of the binding order.
He was only satisfied after I promised to stew ginseng and pheasant for him the next day.
He also emphasized that Fang Shui should not be given any water.
Fang Shuidu is already fighting with him for the bed, so we can't fight with him for food anymore.
If Lingyao doesn't agree, he's about to jump out of his pocket and go hit Fang Shui.
Lingyao pressed his head back down and agreed.
The next day, just as dawn broke.
Lingyao took advantage of Fang Shui's sleep while he was still asleep after two tiring days at the Demon Hunter Academy.
They left the Liu residence first.
She changed into the clothes provided by the Demon Hunter Academy after taking a bath yesterday.
There was also a wooden sign that read "Demon-Catching Order".
There are no colors or grades.
It is said that after a month of study, another assessment will be conducted before tokens are issued according to the five levels: Yellow, Profound, Earth, Heaven, and Nothingness.
Of course, most people are initially assessed as Yellow-level demon hunters, and then those with exceptional talent and ability will gradually rise through the ranks in the next assessment.
However, most of them will remain at the Yellow or Xuan level, and those who can reach the Earth level are already the best.
Those who can ascend to heaven without any rank can be counted on one hand in the entire main county.
Wearing this outfit, Lingyao even received better treatment from people when shopping.
Before, when she bought things, people would often ask her where the money came from because she was so young, and they would also ask her if her parents knew that she had taken out the money.
But now that she's wearing this outfit, no one asks her that question anymore.
Even those much older than her still call her "Demon Slayer".
In this world, demon hunters have a very high social status.
However, this only applies to ordinary people.
When Lingyao went to buy some talisman paper and cinnabar, the shopkeeper's attitude remained the same as always.
After all, those who do this kind of business are usually not demon hunters, but they are still somewhat skilled in the arts.
I deal with all sorts of demon hunters every day.
Some demon hunters who aren't doing so well even have to curry favor with these shopkeepers.
After all, the cost of being a demon hunter is really high.
Lingyao glanced at the talisman.
High-grade talisman paper costs one or two taels of silver per sheet, supposedly because of its excellent material and the 80% success rate of drawing talismans on it.
A slightly less expensive option costs one tael of silver to buy ten tickets, which isn't cheap either.
Low-grade talismans cost one coin each, but only demon hunters like them who have just passed the entry-level test and are still practicing would buy such talismans.
The success rate of drawing talismans on such paper is very low, and even if it is successful, the effect will not be very good.
Previously, the academy should have given them ten coins worth one tael of silver.
After all, it's an assessment. If everyone is given low-level talismans, probably half of them will be eliminated.
Last time she sold talismans, they were basically priced at ten or more taels of silver each. If she spends one or two taels of silver to buy ten talismans, she can sell them for a maximum of several hundred taels of silver.
Of course, this is without taking into account the losses of cinnabar, chicken blood, and various materials used for applying talismans.
Lingyao bought Lingzhi and Lingshen for Fuling yesterday, and today she bought him a pheasant.
After calculating, I only had a dozen or so taels of silver left.
She ended up buying ten talisman papers, plus a box of cinnabar costing eight taels of silver, chicken blood costing nine taels of silver, and other tools.
There were only twenty-odd coins left in his pocket.
I've never been this poor!
Lingyao even considered letting the little snake roam free, as it was too expensive.
When Lingyao came out of the incense pavilion with her things, she unexpectedly ran into Baili Qing and Nangong Yu, who were also there to buy things.
Both of them were young ladies from prominent families, and they wouldn't normally need to go out and buy things themselves; their families would provide these things for them.
However, since the two had just been selected into the Demon Hunter Academy, they couldn't contain their excitement and naturally wanted to go out for a stroll.
Beside them followed a man dressed in a blue robe.
The three of them came face to face with Lingyao, and it was the man who spoke first.
"Little girl, we meet again." Xie Huaiyu's gaze swept over Ling Yao. "You also participated in this demon hunter entry-level assessment?"
