Douluo: Selling Ning Rongrong's Mission Card, She Dropped Out of School

Most of them were just onlookers, however, and not a single soul master stepped forward to purchase a Mission Card.

After all, Soto City was only a small city, and those with ten thousand gold coins to spare were few and far between.

The purchasing power of the soul masters here was quite limited.

Ten thousand Gold Soul Coins was not an amount an ordinary person could afford to spend.

Consequently, Li Haiyun's current workload was very light, and he spent his days in leisure.

As Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing approached, the two sisters drew attention.

Passersby who recognized Ning Rongrong as the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect who had come to buy a Mission Card the previous night immediately took the lead in clearing a path for them.

"Boss, Boss Li, I'm here!"

Ning Rongrong called out excitedly, her voice sounding as melodious as ever.

Li Haiyun instantly perked up, rising from his rocking chair.

Sweeping his gaze over, Li Haiyun noticed a young maiden standing beside Ning Rongrong.

The girl was dressed in a tight black leather outfit that outlined her exquisite, curvaceous figure, a perfect silhouette that made the surrounding female passersby pale in comparison.

Her appearance was stunning, not a whit inferior to Ning Rongrong's.

In particular, her long, slender jade legs, accentuated by the leather pants, were shapely and rounded, exuding infinite charm with every step she took.

If the eyes of every passerby had been focused on Ning Rongrong the previous night, then today, their gazes were all drawn to Zhu Zhuqing.

Looking at those astonishing curves, Li Haiyun couldn't help but marvel inwardly: As expected of Zhu Zhuqing—stunningly beautiful, with a slender waist, long legs, and a heaving chest; I'd estimate a D-cup. A true beauty!

At this sight, Li Haiyun felt even more energized, his fatigue swept away in an instant.

"Ah, it's you, Rongrong. You've arrived."

Li Haiyun kept his composure, offering a gentle greeting.

Ning Rongrong pulled Zhu Zhuqing closer to Li Haiyun and introduced her: "This is my good sister, her name is Zhu Zhuqing. I brought her here today to use a Mission Card and accept a mission!"

"Zhuqing—a very lovely name, and the person herself is just as bright and beautiful!"

A gentle smile hung on Li Haiyun's face as he offered his praise without reservation.

He then added, "You are both very welcome to come here to purchase and use Mission Cards. If you encounter any questions you don't understand, I am more than happy to answer them for you."

"Thank you, Boss Li!"

Ning Rongrong thanked him with a sweet, gentle smile, then quietly tugged at Zhu Zhuqing's arm.

Zhu Zhuqing was polite enough to follow suit, whispering, "Thank you."

During this initial contact, Zhu Zhuqing also took the opportunity to observe Li Haiyun.

She found that this Boss Li was indeed as Ning Rongrong had described: handsome, easygoing, and refined in his speech.

In terms of personality, appearance, and demeanor, he was in a different league compared to the likes of Flender, Dai Mubai, Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar back at the academy; it was as if he were in the heavens while they were all on the ground.

Zhu Zhuqing felt less resistance and aversion toward Boss Li; he was someone she could interact with and observe further.

Once the pleasantries were concluded, Ning Rongrong got straight to the point. "Zhuqing, you can start using the Mission Card now and accept your first mission! Just like I told you, inject a sliver of soul power into it, and that's all there is to it."

"Alright, Rongrong, I'll give it a try!"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded her head slightly in reply.

She then took out a Mission Card and injected a sliver of soul power into it.

Immediately, several lines of black text appeared on the card, describing the mission details.

Mission Level: [Black]

Mission Content: [In the presence of the crowd, shout ten times at the top of your lungs: "My fate is determined by me, not by the heavens; thirty years east of the river, thirty years west, do not bully a young girl for being poor!" to demonstrate your resolve to defy an unjust fate!]

Mission Nature: [Public]

Mission Reward: [One Nether Civet Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone, thirty thousand years in age!]

Notes: [None]

This was a Black-level mission.

Looking at the content on the Mission Card, Zhu Zhuqing's originally icy expression could no longer hold, and it became quite colorful.

"Th-this is a Black-level mission?"

"Upon completion, it actually rewards a 30,000-year-old Nether Civet Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone!"

"This reward is far too generous; is it even real?!"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes overflowed with radiance, unable to believe what she was seeing.

Then, she focused on the mission requirements.

To shout in public:

"My fate is determined by me, not by the heavens!"

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west; do not bully a young girl for being poor!"

At first glance, the content of this mission seemed incredibly simple.

But as she looked deeper into the underlying meaning of those two sentences, Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body suddenly tensed, and her alluring, beautiful eyes constricted sharply.

"My fate... is determined by me, not by the heavens!"

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west; do not bully a young girl for being poor!"

Staring at these words, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but feel her blood boil. Her pretty little hands clenched into fists, and her lithe body trembled slightly.

That's right!

One's own destiny should be held in one's own hands; it shouldn't be predetermined from birth!

Why shouldn't she be the master of her own marriage? Why was she born to be betrothed to Dai Mubai by the Zhu Family?

I am not resigned to this; I want to resist the family's arrangements!

My fate is determined by me, not by the heavens, and not by the Zhu Family!

And you, Dai Mubai!

It's one thing that my sister hates me.

But as my fiancé, you lack any sense of responsibility as a man!

You abandoned me and ran off to Shrek Academy all by yourself.

I went through the hardships of traveling to the Heaven Dou Empire to find you.

Yet, you, Dai Mubai, have wallowed in degradation, indulging in debauchery, flirting with others, and living a life of carefree dissipation.

My sister is unreliable, and my fiancé is even more so!!

Zhu Zhuqing had endured far too much on her own; she felt deeply wronged, heartbroken, and miserable!

She wanted to resist; she wanted to fight against this unfair fate.

"My destiny should be controlled by me alone."

"Whatever I want to do, no one is allowed to interfere!!"

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west; do not bully a young girl for being poor!!!"

Zhu Zhuqing's fists tightened, her entire body quivering, and a fierce aura began to emanate from her.

The passersby who had been admiring Zhu Zhuqing's stunning figure were affected by this terrifying aura and instinctively withdrew their predatory gazes.

As Zhu Zhuqing's good friend, Ning Rongrong immediately sensed that something was wrong.

"Zhuqing, Zhuqing, what's wrong?"

Ning Rongrong asked with concern, stepping forward to pull affectionately on Zhu Zhuqing's arm.

Throughout the process, Ning Rongrong remained respectful and did not overstep by trying to look at the contents of Zhuqing's Mission Card.

"Huu~~"

Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, quickly adjusting her state of mind.

"Rongrong, I'm fine. I just thought of some bitter experiences, that's all... it's nothing!"

Zhu Zhuqing replied in a low voice.

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong nodded and said, "Alright, as long as you're okay!"

She knew that Zhu Zhuqing was a strong-willed girl; since Zhuqing said she was fine, then she was fine.

Prying further would only be counterproductive.

Then, Ning Rongrong asked, "Zhuqing, what is your mission? Can you tell me?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded and said, "The nature of my mission is public."

With that, the usually quiet and reserved Zhu Zhuqing handed the Mission Card to Ning Rongrong, letting her see for herself.

Looking at the black ink on the Mission Card.

Ning Rongrong's cherry-red lips parted in shock, forming an 'O' shape.

"Wow, wow, wow! A Black-level mission, Zhuqing, you received a Black-level mission!"

"The reward is actually a 30,000-year Nether Civet Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone! It's a perfect match for your Civet Spirit!"

"Geez, you are so lucky!"

Ning Rongrong hopped and skipped about, her face beaming with joyful smiles.

"Hehe."

Watching her good friend Ning Rongrong acting like a bouncy little child, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but chuckle.

"What! A Black-level mission with a 30,000-year spirit bone as a reward!"

"Good heavens, what kind of luck does this little girl have to get such an heaven-defying mission and reward!"

"This is insane! That's a 30,000-year spirit beast bone—will they really give it out?"

"..."

Upon hearing the news, the passersby all around erupted like boiling water.

They truly hadn't expected that a Mission Card purchased for ten thousand Gold Soul Coins could yield something so heaven-defying!

Buy. An urge to purchase a Mission Card sprouted in everyone's hearts.

Only a fool wouldn't buy a Mission Card.

But they had no money.

The Mission Card was priced at ten thousand Gold Soul Coins, which was clearly very cheap.

Yet they simply didn't have the money; they couldn't scrape together ten thousand Gold Soul Coins...!

Many people felt their hearts bleeding!
