69 Destiny Epaulet

Chu Bai’s words could not be more obvious.

He had obviously heard everything.

Hearing Chu Bai’s words, the seven old men’s expressions changed.

“Ahahaha… Chunhua Brothel? Young man, what are you talking about? I don’t understand. Old Swordsman, ten gold coins it is then. Give him a discount.”

Huo Yan touched his red beard and laughed, trying to hide his embarrassment.

Originally, he was thinking of scamming some money so that he could take care of those poor girls.

The swordsman coughed and said, “You don’t need to pay. I’ll give you a free class advancement.”

Clang.

Chu Bai slammed a hundred gold coins on the table.

“Here! 100 gold coins is 100 gold coins. I’m not a person who covets small gains.”

Hearing Chu Bai’s words, the seven of them trembled.

Huo Yan immediately flashed to Chu Bai’s side and pulled him to the side, whispering, “Young man, I was wrong just now. Here are five gold coins. It’s just a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it.”

He handed Chu Bai five gold coins with a smile.

[Ding. You’ve received five gold coins.]

“Just five?” Chu Bai asked.

Huo Yan paused for a moment.

“No, this is all I have! If you don’t believe me, take a look!”

He then opened his pockets, cloth bags, and other things.

Two lonely copper coins fell to the ground.

“I’ll add two more copper coins. I really don’t have any more.”

When the other six old men saw this scene, they exchanged glances and understood tacitly.

“Spending money to avoid disaster, huh?”

Then, they all took out their money and came over.

“Hehehe, young man, here’s 15 gold coins, my entire fortune. I’ll apologize to you on behalf of that Old Huo Yan.”

“I have 13 gold coins.”

“I have eight gold coins here.”

“I only have two copper coins… Little brother, please forget what you just heard.”

…

Chu Bai took them all.

“Senior, you have more than 20 gold coins, right?”

He looked at the swordsman.

The swordsman paused for a moment.

Then, Chu Bai pointed at his money bag.

“It’s bulging.”

The swordsman’s mouth twitched, and he threw the money bag to Chu Bai.

“That’s all.”

Chu Bai laughed as he weighed it in his hand, then walked over.

“Class change, swordsman.”

The swordsman passed a scroll to Chu Bai in a bad mood.

“Just write your name on it and you can change your class.”

“Many thanks, Senior.”

Chu Bai grinned.

Then, he wrote ‘Bai Ye’.

[Ding. Class change failed.]

“What?”

Chu Bai frowned.

“What’s wrong?”

The seven of them looked at Chu Bai in confusion.

“Class change failed.”

“What?”

They were shocked.

“You can try again.”

The swordsman handed Chu Bai a class change scroll.

[Ding. Class change failed.]

“It still failed?”

They looked at each other.

“How did this happen?”

Chu Bai then stared at them and said, “Don’t tell me you guys are unhappy that you had to give me money and that’s why you’re not letting me change classes. I’ll file a complaint.”

“Kid!”

The swordsman stood up and pointed at Chu Bai.

“You can question my character, but you can’t question my professional ethics!”

Huo Yan tugged at the corner of the old swordsman’s clothes and said in a low voice, “Old Swordsman, you were absent from work yesterday.”

The swordsman was speechless.

“Fine,” he said.

He then slumped into the chair.

Then, he raised his head and looked at Chu Bai, “But whether you believe it or not, the seven of us didn’t play any tricks in this matter.”

In fact, Chu Bai believed it too. After all, he had also failed to transition to Sword God.

“Then what’s the situation here?”

Chu Bai frowned.

Being unable to change classes meant that his attributes would be weaker.

Most of the players’ attributes came from their second and third job transitions.

“There are two reasons for this. Either our strength isn’t enough for you to change your class, which means we’re not worthy of you, or you’re too weak, so you don’t have the ability to obtain more power. Which of these two reasons do you think is the reason?”

Chu Bai thought for a while and said, “It should be the former.”

“The former? Hahaha! I’m only telling you this in theory.”

They laughed.

The swordsman then said, “I’ve sat here for 30 years and have handled at least 50,000 people, if not 100,000. If you take a casual look in the city now, you’ll easily find someone whom I’ve helped. There has never been a person who couldn’t change their classes because they were too strong.

“Has there been anyone who was too strong to change their classes? But you actually said that it’s the former. You really don’t know… I… F*ck!”

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly noticed the epaulet on Chu Bai’s chest!

“The destiny epaulet!”

They all shouted in unison and stood up in shock, staring at the destiny epaulet.

“Are you talking about this?”

Chu Bai laughed in his heart. He lowered his head and used his hand to pull at the epaulet on his chest.

The seven of them rushed in front of Chu Bai and stared at the epaulet.

“The destiny epaulet! It really is the destiny epaulet!”

Their bodies were trembling with excitement!

Then, they raised their heads and looked at Chu Bai in a completely different light.

“I’m sorry! I apologize for what I said just now, the great chosen one!” The swordsman placed a hand on his chest and bowed deeply to Chu Bai. The other six did the same.

“Do you need to be so polite?”

Chu Bai sat down on the swordsman’s chair, crossed his legs, blew on his tea, and took a small sip.

The swordsman said, “The person who has the destiny epaulet is the chosen one handpicked by the three goddesses. He may even become the human race’s son of destiny. He’ll lead the human race to victory in the Battle of Gods. Even the three goddesses will have to be polite to you, let alone us.”

Huo Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “I’d like to express my deepest apologies for my inappropriate behavior before.”

“It’s fine. Let’s talk about the class change.”

“From the looks of it, it’s true that you can’t go through the second transition because you’re too strong, but it’s fine!” the swordsman said.

Then, he took out a class change scroll and passed it to Chu Bai.

“This scroll has inherited my legacy. After using it, you can change your class to the hidden class, Light Swordsman.”

When the other six old men saw this, they also took out their hidden class scrolls and rushed over.

“Young hero, don’t change to a swordsman. Choose another class and change to my Explosive Mage class. Being a mage is awesome!”

“Go to the side, you trashy mage. Change your class to my Divine Shield Bearer. If you’re a man, you should be tougher!”

“All of your jobs are trash. Change to my White Feather Priest class. Which man doesn’t need blessings?”

…

Chu Bai was shocked by their sudden enthusiasm.

He quickly stood up and took the Light Swordsman scroll.

“No, no, no. I still prefer being a swordsman.”

The swordsman’s face was filled with pride.

“Changing to a swordsman is right! Which man doesn’t want to use his sword to travel the world?!”

Chu Bai then mumbled, “I’m just afraid that my class isn’t good enough and I won’t be able to make any money. I might even have to scrape together some money to go to Chunhua Brothel.”

The seven old men were speechless.
