Lan Feng's neither humble nor haughty words caused all the mocking and discussion to stop. This group of experienced mercenaries sorrowfully discovered that their previous actions were actually so laughable.

They were just five youths who were not even 20 years old. They had just entered the mercenary industry and were just a bunch of ignorant newbies. Their mercenary group was still at the very beginning of Red Stage. This group of children, just because they didn't have the time to refuse to join their mercenary group, had been needlessly suppressed by a large group of mercenaries. This was truly too much.

The middle-aged man laughed dryly, then turned and sat down on his seat. The others did not have the face to continue watching, as a farce was wiped clean by a single sentence from Lan Feng.

Lanny and Shawk's gazes towards him were a little different. MerLin's big eyes were like two small suns, flickering with a different kind of light. Lan Feng turned around and repeated the question, but this time, no one laughed at him, "Shawk, what's with the mercenary ranking?"

"Uh-oh, it's like this." Xiao Ke came back to his senses and began to explain, "The mercenary groups are divided into seven ranks according to their Dou Qi and Magic: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple. However, this division does not only depend on their strength; it mainly includes the quality of the quest completed, the number of missions completed, and the number of members. To successfully complete ten missions, one would need to advance to the Orange Stage. However, if one of the ten missions in a row was not completed, then all ten missions would not be counted in the number of missions promoted. At the same time, the requirement to advance to the Orange Stage is for the number of members to not less than five. "

"Then the number of missions to be upgraded again is also the same?" Why must there be a limit on the number of people? "In addition, what are the benefits of advancing?"

"From the Red Stage to the Orange Stage, you have completed ten missions perfectly, and the next one is the perfect completion of twenty missions, going from Red Stage to the Cyan Stage, all the way. From the Cyan Stage onwards, the requirements for the missions decreased, all the way to the Purple Stage had five missions, and as long as four of them were completed, they could be promoted. The Mercenary Group's limit wasn't absolute. The main purpose was to prevent those who didn't have the ability from leveling up by luck. This aspect could be relaxed, as long as the team was truly strong. However, the minimum number of people cannot be less than three. This is the basic number. "

"As for the benefits of advancing, if I don't advance, I can only accept missions of the same level. As for low-level missions, not only are they troublesome, the rewards are even meagre." When a mercenary group reaches a sufficiently high level, the reward for a single mission will be enough to cause the entire team to spend a year and a half. For example, the top three mercenary groups all receive Purple Stage s, so the reward for a Purple Stage mission is unimaginably high. "

Suddenly, the middle-aged man from the Flying Dragon mercenary group stood up and took a few steps forward, "This young brother is not right. Although the rewards for the Purple Stage mission were high, but the difficulty of the mission was too high to imagine. Furthermore, the Purple Stage mission was not something that could be completed just because someone said so. In fact, even if the mercenary company rose to a high level, most of the quests accepted by the group would still be mid-level. Although the income wouldn't be very high, the entire group would still be able to accept many quests at the same time. "Gathering as little as possible is the fundamental principle behind the survival of a large mercenary group."

Lan Feng smiled slightly, then kindly nodded at him. The middle-aged man immediately became a little embarrassed: "Little brother, about what happened just now …"

"It doesn't matter. I understand. It seems that this business isn't easy either. Everyone is asking for a bowl of rice. Thank you for your explanation, big brother."

Lan Feng humbly bent down, and a strange feeling inexplicably appeared in the middle aged man's heart. Not only him, everyone present, including MerLin who was the one who understood Lan Feng the most, had no choice but to praise his actions secretly.

Shawk walked in front of the wall with a bunch of quests pasted on it and muttered, "It's only four silver coins sending five hundred kilograms of Blood Boosting Medicine to the Giant Wood City which is three hundred miles away. It's almost nothing. He found a lost ring. Who knew where the five silver coins had gone. "Send two thousand kilograms of flour to Norton, eight hundred miles away. One gold coin, so far!"

"Miss, I'll have to trouble you for a moment." Lan Feng pointed to the label on the Red Stage mission plate and pointed out a string of points: "We will take this, this, and this mission, a total of ten."

Shawk looked at him with wide eyes. The middle-aged man from the Wyvern Mercenary Group called out: "Little brother, please don't pick him up! If we don't earn any money from these missions, we might lose out. Can't you see that even after dying for so long, no one still accepts the missions? "

Lan Feng secretly waved his right hand at Shawk, and smiled at the middle-aged man: "Thank you for your good intentions, I will be careful."

None of the ten Red Stage s were accepted, and all of them had been sent on long journeys. Under the puzzled looks of the mercenaries, Shawk accepted the mission plate and paid the deposit, and the five of them left the association.

In less than half a day, the five of them returned to Gu Luosi's place. Milon, MerLin and Lanny stayed behind, while Lan Feng and Shawk began the process of madly levelling up their mercenary group.

He first took the mission tag to the owner to receive the goods, then found a place with no people, directly put the goods into his space ring, then pulled the empty car to the next store. Just like this, in a few hours, he ran across half of the Yunjian City and accepted all ten missions.

Next, he planned out the fastest and most effective route according to the direction and distance of the ten delivery points. He didn't even use a horse, he just followed the route that he had set. Shawk's battle qi was greatly depleted while he was running around on foot. At night, he trained crazily, and with Lan Feng, the martial arts wonder, his strength was increasing at an alarming rate.

Of course, Lan Feng would not slack off, he would absorb pure Zhen Qi for more than four hours every day. However, the two types of Zhen Qi had already reached the third layer, so he couldn't absorb a huge amount of Zhen Qi like he had done in the past. The speed at which he was progressing had slowed down as well.

The owner's demands, the consignee's difficulties, the inspection done when they left the city during the delivery, all sorts of questions were resolved under Shawk's experience and his modesty. Shawk's experience continued to increase. He began to learn how to live in a strange place and get along with strangers.

Using a spatial ring to deliver goods, and even sending some basic daily necessities, was something only they could do. This was also the reason why there was almost no loss in the originally unprofitable task of coming to them. They could settle it with two people carrying some dry rations without the use of a carriage or a large number of people.

In less than ten days, the two of them returned to the Yunjian City, returned to the Mercenary Union, and handed over the documents for the ten missions to the young miss.

"How is this possible!?" "It's only been nine days, you only have five people, and have completed ten long distance escort missions. This is unbelievable!"

"This is simply a miracle!"

"Looks like we underestimated them back then."

"That's right, a young hero has appeared!"

Facing a large amount of praises, Lan Feng thanked them one by one without a hint of arrogance. Shawk's face blossomed with a smile, similarly, it was a humble response, but that type of smile was just an act. How could he be as arrogant as Lan Feng?

"Congratulations, Tianxing Mercenary Group has been promoted to the Orange Stage. If you can complete twenty Orange Stage missions, you will have the qualifications to be promoted to the Yellow Stage. Of course, the Red Stage mission is not one of them. "

Just as the young miss finished her sentence, Shawk had already stood in front of the Mission Bar even more actively than Lan Feng. He shouted: "This, the one that gives five thousand kilograms of iron ore, and this, the one that gives a thousand kilograms of beef as an emergency delivery, oh there's still this, this …"

They were still here to deliver goods, but it was more troublesome than the Red Stage. On the mission of delivering goods to the Orange Stage, there were more of them and the items were slightly more precious. Most importantly, there were some things that had a very high time limit.

For example, beef, even with the protection of ice cubes, would normally only be kept fresh for a day or two. This kind of quest would mostly require the Ice element Magician's mercenary group. They could use ice magic to greatly extend the preservation time of the beef, but this was only a Orange Stage task. To let an ice attribute Magician continuously release ice magic to protect the beef, was simply an enormous insult to the noble Magician!

20 tasks that no one bothered with were once again accepted. Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, two people walked out of Mercenary Union.

For a few days in a row, within the Mercenary Union, this newly formed Tianxing Mercenary Group became the topic that people discussed the most during their free time. For a middle-sized mercenary group, completing ten missions in nine days was an easy task to accomplish. In fact, it could even be done in five days. However, they were a newly established mercenary group. They only had five people, and from the looks of the transfer process, they only had two people.

Perhaps, these children were the descendants of a rich family? Relying on the strength of their family to help them accomplish this, they only set up a mercenary group for fun. That was their common explanation and also their only logical explanation. In fact, it was a pity that it was wrong!

Nine days became half a month. Half a month later, the two of them once again appeared in Yunjian City. Did they slow down? Of course not, this time it was twenty missions, not ten. In a sense, they were even faster!

"There are so many goods in this mission. Even if someone is helping, they must have a very strong family behind them. These missions are definitely not something that ordinary small families can complete in a short period of time!"

People were guessing, but this didn't affect the voice of the reception elder sister, who was also in a state of shock: "Oh my god! You have created a record! Congratulations, now you are …

Lan Feng and Shawk who were waiting for the news of their advancement couldn't help but become excited. However, they didn't hear the words of the reception elder who walked out: "Yi Yun, have you forgotten one thing, their numbers aren't enough. The Yellow Stage mercenary group requires at least ten members."

Everyone looked extremely disappointed, while Shawk's face was filled with dejection as he sighed.
