Chapter 71 Quick Guidance for the Beggar Clan Leader
Chapter 71 Quick Guidance for the Beggar Clan Leader
When Che Taizai saw that the Void Messenger had actually brought back 4000 dollars, he was so shocked that his eyes widened and he didn't react for a long time.
"It's actually true! Wang Yan is someone worth getting to know better!"
Che Taizai counted the coins brought by the Void Messenger, feeling even more satisfied. He muttered to himself, "Not bad at all. Wang Yan is generous, but not stupid. I mustn't try to outsmart him when trading in the future! If I build a good relationship with him and get his support, defeating Thanos in the future won't be a dream! Right now, I'm still lacking plant-growing heroes and powerful military units. I'll ask Brother Yan for them later..."
At this moment, Wang Jue, sitting in his high-backed chair, had just created a new work and was engrossed in writing again.
This time, Wang Jue's work wasn't a novel, but a setting collection called "The Beggar Clan Setting Collection".
Considering the upcoming fifth attack by the merman army, and the fact that Bafang Bubai and Wang Jianglong are guarding the fortress in the Blood Prison Secret Realm, Wang Jue wants to mentor new ranged troops.
His current soul power is only one thousand points.
One thousand points of soul power can only be used for ten unlimited guidance sessions.
Using it to strengthen existing top-tier troops is risky. Take Mad Dog King and others, for example. After reaching three stars, they all go through ups and downs. Spending a thousand soul points on them might result in a five-star hero, or it might not. If you're unlucky, it's not impossible for them to lose stars.
That's unstable.
Moreover, what Wang Jue needs now is quantity, which can be achieved by dividing forces, rather than quality.
In his opinion, ordinary players, without advanced barracks or special means, could only recruit subordinates with low-level recruitment tokens and at most only have three-star soldiers.
Then, by training a group of three-star soldiers, one can achieve invincible military strength.
As for guiding beggars, the chances of getting the wrong answer are extremely small if it's below three stars, making it relatively more cost-effective.
Wang Jue wanted to test a way to upgrade beggars into three-star soldiers, and then use the hero upgrade formula to easily create a minimum three-star hero army, making his soul power more cost-effective.
The reason for not choosing the newly acquired red-haired demon, green-haired demon, and little green snake to provide guidance is twofold: firstly, because one's own barracks are a shack where beggars can be recruited; and secondly, because guiding beggars is a familiar path that is easier for one to handle.
Wang Jue is currently writing the "Martial Arts Beggar Clan Setting Collection" in the hope that after the work is submitted, it will be included in the system's setting database. This way, when he guides young beggars and Beggar Clan disciples in the future, it will be much easier for him to have a basis for guidance.
Of course, this is just Wang Jue's wishful thinking. Whether the "Wulin Beggars' Sect Setting Collection" will ultimately be included in the system's setting database is uncertain. Rationally speaking, it is highly unlikely that it will not.
"The lowest-ranking soldiers in the Beggars' Sect are Beggars' Sect disciples, one-and-a-half-star warriors. The system has already equipped them with skills, namely [Mad Dog Fist]. Only after that do I need to make things up, oh no, set things up..."
"Initial setup: Above the Beggar Clan disciples are the elite disciples of the Beggar Clan, positioned as third-rate martial arts masters, with a star rating of two. Their profession should ideally be a ranged archer, which requires equipping them with suitable weapons. What kind of weapon would be suitable...?"
"Having Beggars' Sect disciples carry rocket launchers or Gatling guns is definitely out of the question; it doesn't fit the character progression. As for martial arts disciples, ranged weapons... bows and arrows? Throwing knives? Hidden weapons? Flying guillotine?"
Wang Jue pondered for a moment and came up with a relatively plausible idea.
"Beggar Clan disciples either don't need weapons and just throw stones, or they use slingshots. Slingshots are more practical, so the success rate of instruction should be higher... Therefore, the standard ranged weapon for elite Beggar Clan disciples will be the slingshot for now. Should martial arts skills also be included? We won't include those for now; let's see if the system can program them!"
"If you successfully mentor an elite disciple of the Beggars' Sect, then above them, conservatively speaking, a two-and-a-half-star rank, you can call them Beggars' Sect Elders, second-rate martial arts masters. They can still use slingshots, and their martial arts skills are up to fate."
"Next, a three-star unit, the Beggar Clan leader, a top-tier martial arts master, still using a slingshot. Yes, use the slingshot to the end! Let's equip him with two skills here, namely [Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms] and [Dog-Beating Stick]. The power will be based on movies and TV series. Will the system adopt it...?"
Wang Jue imagined a scene in his mind where a group of Qiao Fengs on one side of the wall unleashed the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, creating countless dragon shadows that bombarded the mountaintop!
But as I thought about it, I realized that it was unreliable. The system obviously had settings for the martial arts soldiers, and if my forced settings in the bookstore didn't match the system, it might not be a good thing.
So it's better to be a little more lenient.
After revising for over an hour, Wang Jue wrote a thousand words. He uploaded the setting collection, and the system notification sounded: "Ding, new work [Wulin Beggars' Sect Setting Collection], approved, work qualified, added to Wulin bookshelf, automatically formatted and generated three display copies, the content of the work is relatively ordinary, some of the absorbed parts are added to the database, no territory bonus."
"The absorbed portion has been added to the database!"
Wang Jue was overjoyed that his own settings had actually been adopted by the system, even if only partially. It was still a remarkable thing, enough to excite him.
He eagerly picked up the duck-shaped megaphone and broadcast a message across the area: "Looking for a little beggar!"
As the lord, Wang Jue's orders carried weight. Soon, a little beggar entered the transmigration bookstore. As if meeting an emperor, he knelt down upon entering, then walked to the center of the main hall, kowtowed, and shouted, "Give me some food!"
Wang Juezhen tossed him a salted fish, but the little beggar didn't even glance at it.
"If you're given food but won't eat it, why beg?"
Wang Jue said something, then used [Infinite Guidance], and his body lit up with light.
This time, he activated the quick-access formula, selected the little beggar below, and said, "Beggar Clan!"
The little beggar below the hall suddenly glowed, stood up, changed his clothes, and in the blink of an eye became a disciple of the Beggars' Sect.
"The quick-guide formula really works, without any problems!"
Wang Jue nodded and continued to advise, "As a Beggars' Sect disciple, you must be proactive and actively participate in sect activities. Only in this way can you be promoted to an elite Beggars' Sect disciple!"
"Ding! Guidance successful! The Beggar Clan disciple, enlightened by your guidance, has become more proactive and actively participates in clan activities. Today, he has been promoted to an elite Beggar Clan disciple and simultaneously joined the ranks of third-rate martial arts masters!"
"Ding! Your Beggar Clan disciple has been promoted to a two-star elite Beggar Clan disciple, changed class to archer, acquired the slingshot weapon, gained the new skill [Flying Stones], and your loyalty has increased by 5!"
"Ding, recording the formula for quickly elevating Beggar Clan elite disciples. Consuming the corresponding soul power, using 'elite' as the keyword, it can quickly and in batches elevate Beggar Clan disciples to the status of elite disciples."
"It worked! Looks like the settings I wrote were really useful!"
Wang Jue was greatly encouraged and continued to offer guidance, saying, "As an elite disciple of the Beggars' Sect, you must be proactive, actively participate in sect activities, and at the same time hone your martial arts skills in order to be promoted to Beggars' Sect Elder!"
"Ding, guidance successful! The elite disciple of the Beggars' Sect has been enlightened by your guidance. He is now proactive and actively participates in sect activities. At the same time, he is diligently practicing martial arts. He can now use stones to strike pressure points and has now become a second-rate master in the martial arts world."
"Ding! Your elite Beggars' Sect disciple has been promoted to a two-and-a-half-star Beggars' Sect Elder, gaining the skill [Acupoint Strike], and your loyalty has increased by 5!"
"Ding! Recording the formula for quickly promoting Beggars' Sect elders. Using 'elder' as the keyword and consuming the corresponding soul power, this can quickly and in batches promote elite Beggars' Sect disciples to Beggars' Sect elders!"
Wang Jue quickly checked the description of the [Acupoint Strike] skill and found that it was a passive skill that could enhance the attack power of [Flying Stones], nothing more.
In addition, the elite Beggars' Sect disciple [Flying Stone] has an attack range of 10 meters. After being promoted to Beggars' Sect Elder, the range has increased to 20 meters. His weapon is still a slingshot, but this slingshot is more exquisite and better looking!
Wang Jue continued, and effortlessly promoted the Beggar Clan elder to the Beggar Clan leader.
The system also recorded the Beggars' Sect leader's quick-guide formula.
The leader of the Beggars' Clan was burly and handsome. He wore coarse cloth clothes and looked to be in his thirties or forties. He had a long, slightly chubby beard, long but neat hair, and wore a coarse cloth hat. He also had a small slingshot with a wooden handle hanging from his waist.
Wang Jue looked at the Beggars' Sect leader standing in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

"Even without the Dragon Subduing Palm and the Dog-Beating Stick, this is fine. Next, I'll teach him to become a hero!"
Wang Jue used [Infinite Guidance] again, saying to the Beggar Clan leader, "Nameless and faceless, a nobody in the martial world. Now that you are the Beggar Clan leader, you should have a name. From now on, you will be called Leader Qiao!"
"Ding! Guidance successful! The Beggars' Sect Leader has gained enlightenment thanks to your guidance, acquiring the name 'Chief Qiao,' and being promoted to a three-star hero. Overall abilities have improved, with [Flying Stone] range increased by 10 meters and loyalty increased by 10!"
"Huh, it didn't upgrade its star rating? But it's still okay!"
Wang Jue raised the large megaphone shaped like a duck's head and shouted again, "One more little beggar, please!"
The new little beggar arrived soon. This time, Wang Jue used the quick guidance formula, consuming a total of 400 soul power points, and quickly guided him to become the leader of the Beggar Clan. He then consumed another 100 soul power points to name him "Chief Xiao".
Chief Xiao and Chief Qiao were dressed alike, of the same height, possessed identical skills, and even resembled each other. They exchanged greetings, and Chief Qiao declared first, "My Beggars' Clan is the number one clan in the world!"
Chief Xiao then declared, "My Beggars' Clan is the number one clan in the world!"
"You're both just commanders without any real power!"
Wang Jue laughed and then modified the [Wulin Beggars' Sect Setting Collection] to match the system settings. Just after he finished modifying it, Wang Jue received a system notification that the crops in the [Billion-Acre Spirit Field] had matured.
