Chapter 82 -70: The Gentle Killer Ranking [Extra Chapter for Silver Alliance Leader Jiou Xueer]

Then, Feng Yin took the pill and tied a damp cloth over his mouth and nose. Closing all the pores of his body, he activated the Spiritual Transformation Technique, gathering energy…

When an opportunity presents itself, he exploits it with three potent moves in succession to complete the task.

Then he withdraws immediately, even leaving the target’s wallet untouched, retreating directly.

“Too cautious and you risk cowardice; too afraid of dying, and you lose your vigor. The right amount of caution and daring is the essence of the martial world.”

These were not Feng Yin’s words.

They were spoken by an old beggar whom he once saved. While the beggar was recuperating, he offered these words of wisdom to Feng Yin.

“If you only want to live a safe life, you inevitably miss out on many wonderful opportunities life has to offer. Some fortunes can only be attained through risking one’s life. Every time you make a move, consider the odds.”

The old beggar advised Feng Yin about his overly cautious trait.

“Too cautious, one can survive this chaotic world with at most a 90% chance. You can’t always prevent unexpected natural or man-made disasters or epidemics. If you choose to undertake a task that has only a 10-20% chance of causing your death, a 70-80% chance of success, and a 30% chance of gaining benefits, then it’s worth trying!

A martial artist must remember that missing an opportunity means missing a lifetime of achievement. If you only think about survival and don’t take any risks, how do you differ from a turtle? Why be a martial artist? For martial artists face death more readily than ordinary people.”

…

This speech had a significant influence on Feng Yin.

When the old beggar subsequently recovered, he left. Before he did, he taught Feng Yin about martial arts, techniques, use of sword, baton, even the use of gun.

But he strictly refused to acknowledge the term of master and apprentice.

“If you become my disciple, you are destined to join the Beggars’ Sect. Your path is vast, and you have great ambitions. The Beggars’ Sect will only hold you back.”

He left Feng Yin with a sword before leaving.

That was the sword Feng Yin had used for many years.

It was also the true source of Feng Yin’s martial arts in this world.

Feng Yin’s style of ‘a third caution, a third integrity, a third daring, and a tenth fleeing’ was slowly formed and settled in over the course of ten years.

He felt that he would never be able to plan before he acts, but observing before acting was something he could do. Over time, this habit had seeped into his bones.

For the next few missions, he became even more cautious; he marked thirteen in total and completed seven. The other six, not because he was late, were completed one step ahead by others due to Feng Yin’s habit of ‘observing before attacking’.

It turned out that Feng Yin had no idea that these targets were so weak.

The moment the other Bronze Badge assassins made a move, the mission was gone.

He was speechless about this.

But on reconsidering, there were no regrets. If given a chance to do it again, he believes that he would probably not take the direct approach.

Regardless, he could only watch as these few tasks slipped away.

The seven tasks he completed in the past two days earned him almost identical rewards. Now that Feng Yin was wealthy, he didn’t care much for the rewards of potions and silver.

Instead, he enjoyed the feeling of ‘doing justice’ and ‘protecting the weak against the strong’.

Eradicating one rubbish from the world would benefit many people.

This wasn’t talking big, as countless assassins of the Heavenly Judge, having established a martial arts foundation, ended up defecting and joining other assassin organizations.

The Heavenly Judge neither punished nor prevented this.

The reason was simple.

A Bronze Badge assassin killing a person would earn at most a hundred silvers, a few pills, and a delicious mantou. Many lower-ranking targets would only reward fifty silvers.

But in other assassin organizations, accepting a commissioned murder, a Bronze Badge-level target, would start at five thousand silvers. Furthermore, this five thousand does not include the organization’s earnings. Purely as an assassin, one could make five thousand silvers.

This disparity in treatment between the Heavenly Judge and other organizations was too stark.

At the present time, many of the Heavenly Judge’s targets had many real assassins who were once under the Heavenly Judge’s command.

In other words, higher-ranked assassins of the Heavenly Judge were generally pure.

The Heavenly Judge was respected as a unique profession because of this.

Higher-ranked practitioners who have a strong sense of ethics are fair and upright.

The work for many years of promoting righteous values really is admirable.

Feng Yin also enjoyed the quick increase in rank. After accomplishing seven targets in two nights, his rank has risen from over twenty thousand to the top ten thousand.

Currently ranked, nine thousand five hundred.

This rank, the distance to his gold rank goal, has taken another solid step forward, no longer appearing unreachable.

Some may question why his rank has risen so quickly when everyone is completing tasks?

Here’s the explanation, not all tasks are the same, not everyone has a good luck charm, but also, there is the issue of injury. Based on personal consideration, unless necessary or confident in their own strength, very few people complete tasks continuously.

But Feng Yin, with his second-time human life’s higher understanding, and the aid of the extraordinary Spiritual Transformation Technique, is advancing every day. Add to this his habit of biding his time for the opportune moment to launch a surprise attack, achieving this is logical and nothing surprising.

Although during this process, there were several times when he had a close shave, it wasn’t smooth sailing all the time – no need to explain much on this, it’s pretty obvious. It’s important that everyone understands this and prevents misunderstandings.

“Rank nine thousand five hundred, I need to continue to work hard. After this, the progress in rank will not be as fast!”

Feng Yin made up his mind, trying hard to plan his next target and action manner.

What Feng Yin did not know was that, as he kept finishing tasks, his rank had caught the attention of some interested parties.

In the capital city of the Qin country, at the Dark Guards headquarters.

This is an extremely secretive place.

A whole wall, dozens of meters long, is entirely a huge screen.

What’s being displayed on it is the information of the Heavenly Judge from the Heavenly Judgment, of course, only those from Great Qin; those beyond the Great Qin aren’t shown here.

But just this alone is enough to shock the world.

On it, there are countless pieces of information about assassins, being updated every moment of every second.

From the Iron Rank onwards to the Emperor Rank assassins, their activities and rankings are all directly summarized here.

“The ones above the Jade Rank hardly change.”

“Gold Rank and Silver Rank, there’s not much to observe either.”

“But this Iron Rank one called ‘Gentle’, a few days ago he suddenly made it to the first place… Eh, holy crap, how come ‘Gentle’ is gone?”

“Was he killed by someone?”

“Maybe… No, no, this guy has become a Bronze Rank now, let me take a closer look… Damn… he is now Bronze Rank 9,500.”

“What? That’s impossible!”

“Impossible, you say? Come see for yourself.”

In an instant, more than ten people gathered and looked at the Bronze area, dumbfounded at the name ranked at 9,500.

“Could it be… he was originally ranked over 70,000 in Iron Rank.”

“That’s what I remember.”

“Check it.”

“Alright.”

“I must say, this kid’s name is really… Canola Flower. A deadly assassin who kills with every blow, yet he chose a name like ‘Gentle’… Couldn’t he have chosen a name like ‘Eternal Love’ instead?”

“Look at his combat record!”

“Hiss…”

Immediately there was a collective gasp.

“He climbed up within ten days?”

“Within ten days, he went from over 70,000 in Iron Rank to 9,500 in Bronze Rank? This…”

“Could it be that this guy lucked out and happened to encounter a bunch of targets that were mutually wounded, and then he rose up one by one?” someone speculated wildly.

However, this possibility isn’t non-existent. Previously, there were assassins who encountered such good fortune. However, the drawback is that while the rank increased, the strength didn’t increase, so they were quickly killed off during missions.

“No! Look here, he climbed up step by step… After performing a rank-jumping mission, he directly went to first place in Iron Rank, and then during this time, he continuously completed… these are, within seven days, one after the other… twenty-three consecutive Bronze Rank tasks.”

“His rankings advancing continuously.”

“Hiss…”

Those present were all elites, the weakest of them were of Jade King Rank strength, they shouldn’t be so shocked by a little Bronze Rank.

However, precisely because they knew too much and were experienced, they understood more clearly how difficult it was to raise one’s ranking so quickly in the Bronze Rank.

“Could it be that this kid is aiming to reach the Gold Rank all at once?” someone joked.

Immediately, everyone burst out laughing: “Ha, ha, ha…”

Obviously, this was impossible!

It was simply a joke.

“Other than this ‘Gentle’, there are two others who are also advancing quickly, originally ranked over 60,000, they are now ranked third and fourth in Iron Rank.”

“Who?”

“This Whirlwind Blade and Snowflake Blade.”

“Oh?”

“These two also rose within a dozen or so days.”

“Really? Such a coincidence?”

Immediately, everyone’s interest was piqued.

They began to study them.

While studying, everyone’s eyebrows furrowed.

“Why are these two’s movement paths so strange?”

It must be said, the actions of these two resembled headless flies, spinning in circles on the spot, always in a certain area.

“What on earth… these two can level up just by spinning around like this?”

Someone was flabbergasted.

Finally, a man stroking his beard said uncertainly: “Old man feels like these two seem a bit… lost…”

Everyone looked at each other.

Looking at this trajectory, it might be possible. But there can’t be people in this world who’re so stupid yet still able to continuously rank up, can there?

“Keep a special eye on these three.”

“Okay.”

“Look up their names.”

“These two are brothers from the Xu Family, they registered directly with their real names, the Whirlwind Blade Xu Qingtian, Snowflake Blade Xu Dadi. They’re not hard to find.”
