Berserk God of War

Chapter 1381: Chapter 1381: Direct Grant, Middle-level Spirit Level

Undermining someone comes at a price; Brother Lu has both background and strength in this area.

However, the middle-aged manager standing in front of Brother Lu suddenly shivered all over.

He quickly looked towards the source of the old voice and instantly froze in place.

Meanwhile, Alian ran to the front of the manager and also curiously looked towards the source of the voice. Is someone really stepping out for justice? Is someone really daring to offend others in the Soldier Formation Master Guild?

In front of The Ninth Starry Sky Map, Sikong Jing also watched as the elder slowly emerged from the shadows, squinting his eyes slightly.

At that moment, Sikong Jing guessed who this elder was.

Brother Lu was still clueless, shouting directly at the elder who had walked out, ”Old man, where did you pop out from? Don’t you know the Star Map belongs to our chairman?”

He remained extremely arrogant, with a posture suggesting that their chairman was incredibly impressive and unbelievable.

Thud...

As soon as Brother Lu finished speaking, the manager knelt down before the elder, ”Greetings, Chairman...”

Gah...

The four words from the middle-aged manager instantly froze the entire hall, leaving Brother Lu with a ghastly look, and then his legs began to tremble uncontrollably...

The eyes of the other guests and servants widened.

Alian, with a pale face, gaped in disbelief, then covered her mouth with her small hand in shock.

As mere servants within the guild, they had never seen the legendary chairman before.

And now the chairman suddenly appeared and even voiced his belief that the black-clad young guest could decipher the nine Star Maps.

Suddenly, Alian, her whole body trembling, looked at the smiling Sikong Jing and thought to herself, ”Could it be, could it be... he succeeded?”

At this moment, Cang Lin had already moved in front of the manager and pointed at Brother Lu, saying, ”When did our Canggu Guild start employing such trash as servants, and who recruited him? Are your eyes blind?”

He was extremely angry, feeling that someone like Brother Lu was damaging both his and the Canggu Guild’s reputation and was unforgivable.

The middle-aged manager dumbly lifted his head, with a panicked expression, ”Chairman, specifically, I also, I also...”

”I know you just returned and don’t know what happened, but I do.”

Cang Lin directly interrupted the middle-aged manager and said coldly, ”Take this servant outside and execute him, then investigate what happened properly... and as for you, his manager, you’re fined three months’ salary.”

Immediately deciding on punishments, Cang Lin no longer wanted to waste time on such trivial matters.

He was more interested in knowing the origin of the black-clad youth... So after speaking, he turned and walked towards Sikong Jing, step by step.

Only after Cang Lin had walked several steps did the middle-aged manager react.

”Ah!”

The next moment, Brother Lu screamed in anguish as the middle-aged manager grabbed him by the hair and dragged him out of the guild...

Although the middle-aged manager didn’t quite understand what had happened, seeing the chairman himself only to be punished was all because of Brother Lu, who must now be torn limb from limb.

Amid Brother Lu’s frantic wailing and pleas, the middle-aged manager suddenly froze again.

”The chairman said he believed that the black-clad youth deciphered the Star Map, and the youth had just been standing in front of the Ninth Map. How terrifying is this?”

Saying this, the middle-aged manager’s eyes widened again and his gaze fell back on Brother Lu...

The bastard! This scoundrel caused him to miss a great opportunity to connect with a young Soldier Formation Master genius.

After dragging him to the guild entrance, the manager mercilessly finished off Brother Lu.

Inside the guild hall, all the guests and servants stared blankly at Cang Lin, the legendary chairman.

He finally walked up to Sikong Jing and said, ”Young friend, congratulations on successfully deciphering the nine Star Maps.”

Hiss...

Though everyone had been speculating, when they truly heard Cang Lin’s words, they couldn’t help but gasp. One of Canggu City’s three great puzzles was so easily resolved by the black-clad youth.

Moreover, while others deciphered them one by one, he completed them all at once.

As Brother Lu mentioned earlier, even the Holy Daughter of Sacred Canggu Peak had only reached the seventh map so far.

Suddenly, everyone observed Sikong Jing closely, determined to remember this young man.

Meanwhile, many servants glanced at the stunned Alian. Her luck was simply exploding; she was bound to prosper.

Here, Sikong Jing replied with a slight smile, ”I am Sikong Jing, paying respects to the esteemed chairman.”

Upon hearing Sikong Jing’s unruffled greeting and seeing his calm expression, Cang Lin couldn’t help but internally praise him but quickly took a breath, wondering about the young man’s origins.

So Cang Lin asked with a smile, ”Sikong, young friend, such talent—where are you from, and who is your master, the Soldier Formation Master?”

He was very straightforward, watching Sikong Jing intently, fearing he’d mention the Qianwang Holy Tower.

But of course, Sikong Jing wouldn’t say he was apprenticed to Su Old Demon Su Beiheng, instead replying softly, ”Though I’ve had some training, it’s not convenient to disclose, but I am from the Overlord Commerce of Hanluan City.”

This answer left Cang Lin slightly surprised, then he let out a long exhale. The Overlord Commerce in the eastern Central Plains had no ties to the Qianwang Holy Tower...

Thinking of this, Cang Lin immediately displayed a gentle smile, even wanting to poach him instantly.

But this kind of thing couldn’t be said out loud immediately, so he chuckled and asked, ”Since Sikong, young friend, is from the East Dominator Branch, why haven’t you taken the Soldier Formation Master’s examination?”

He knew Duanmu Chun of the East Dominator Branch, an Lower Emperor Level Soldier Formation Master and guild member.

This left him somewhat puzzled.

Sikong Jing smiled and spoke frankly, ”I come from a small place without a Soldier Formation Master Guild. Around half a year ago, I was selected by the East Overlord Chamber of Commerce and joined their team... The tasks have been heavy, so I haven’t had time for the examination.”

To this, Cang Lin nodded slightly.

He knew the Overlord Commerce liked selecting talent from small places, so what Sikong Jing said made sense.

At this point, Sikong Jing continued to ask, ”Chairman Cang, I heard from the servant Alian that one can directly obtain the Soldier Formation Master badge after deciphering the Star Map. Is that true?”

Though he found Cang Lin impressive, he saw no need for deeper interaction.

Securing the Soldier Formation Master badge was his priority.

For Sikong Jing’s somewhat eager question, Cang Lin became more certain he was there for the examination and replied without further thought: ”Of course it’s true. I can now award you the Middle-level Spirit Level Soldier Formation Master badge.”

Hearing this, Sikong Jing smiled broadly, having finally accomplished one thing.
