In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 244 First Encounter with Master Yu

"this……"

Hearing this, the drinker couldn't help but ask, "Can the Free Guild really solve all problems? What if I submit an assassination mission...?"

"Maybe it will work."

Someone next to him gave him a disapproving look, then mumbled, "But you'd better think about these things carefully. It depends on your status. For example, if you plan to assassinate the Dragon King Palace Master, you might be suppressed on the spot by the Free Guild the moment you submit your mission application."

The drinker's body trembled slightly.

"By the way, behind the Free Guild stands the Dragon King Palace. The Dragon King Palace also participated in that grand meeting between the two races (humans and soul beasts) a year ago. The Lord of the Dragon King Palace seems to be very fond of 'peace' and once specifically ordered that no missions or bounties that would harm the harmonious coexistence between the two races should appear on the Free Guild platform."

"yes……"

Then, someone asked, "How does the Free Guild efficiently find people or methods to solve quest problems?"

"According to a relative of mine who works at the Freedom Guild branch in Farsno, the Freedom Guild has a 'push' system that categorizes and assigns different types of clients very early on."

"For example, if you submit a task about how to treat an illness or want to hire someone to treat your illness, the Free Guild will quickly make the task available to those who have registered as 'Capable Persons' in the Free Guild and are skilled in medicine and pharmacy."

"By the way, there should be many people registered as 'capable people' in the Free Guilds all over the mainland. This identity can be registered by Soul Masters or ordinary people. The difference between them is mainly reflected in the number of mission orders they accept and the level of missions they have completed. The Free Guilds divide mission levels into five grades: A, B, C, D, and E."

"All of this seems to me to be a harbinger of the future system of classifying 'talented people' into different levels. However, I think the higher the level of a talented person, the more likely they are to be a Soul Master."

"That is..."

Upon hearing this, many of the other drinkers shook their heads and smiled, then picked up their bowls and drank.

Afterwards, the conversation among the drinkers inevitably returned to the efficiency of the Free Guild. They wondered if the Free Guild, with its complex network that facilitated better communication and even connections between people across the mainland, was functioning well.

Wang Zhao listened with interest for a while, then focused on cracking peanuts.

For almost every problem that the public can think of, corresponding solutions have already been devised before the platform is established or announced.

In the relatively backward era of "Douyi"—or rather, the era of extreme technological backwardness—it was naturally extremely difficult for Wang Zhao to create such a free guild.

However, who can blame him when he has so many legendary figures standing behind him?

Moreover, they are all knowledgeable and well-traveled. The two gods of time and space have lived since the beginning of time, which goes without saying. The memories of the dragon god inherited by the Silver Dragon King also contain a lot of the dragon god's experiences of traveling through the myriad worlds.

Then there's Elex, who in Wang Zhao's eyes possesses foresight and wisdom no less than any god in the world, and his understanding of the laws of things far surpasses that of many deities. The perfect implementation of many of Wang Zhao's ingenious ideas is inseparable from his help.

As the saying goes-

If science isn't enough, let metaphysics fill the gap!

With the help of various mysterious and unpredictable core techniques, the Free Guild was finally able to establish itself. At present, the Free Guild is still a relatively novel existence for the people of the mainland. As for it to take root in the hearts of the people, it will probably have to wait a few more years.

In short, the Free Guild is a super-large platform. The "capable people" currently registered are mainly those hunters who lost their jobs recently, followed by various idle soul masters and people from all walks of life.

The Free Guild also has a subsidy system, which is enough to support the basic livelihood of registered "talented people". As for pursuing more, it is up to each person to rely on their own abilities.

Furthermore, Wang Zhao did not intend to implement the same practices he had used in the food delivery industry in his previous life within the Free Guild. Under the guise of freedom, he would secretly use sophisticated algorithms that were inaccessible to ordinary people to control the lives of every delivery driver registered on the platform, making them busy and hardworking, even if their lives seemed relaxed and carefree...

This is the current situation, and perhaps more benefits will be introduced in the future. Wang Zhao intends to create a magnificent corporate landscape where "talented people are everywhere in mainland China".

By then, the mainland will have likely undergone numerous changes. The Dragon King Palace, relying on the Free Guild, will directly challenge the very foundation of the Spirit Hall—the masses. A fierce clash is bound to erupt over the conflict of interests...

Of course, this is based on the premise that the Dragon King Palace is the Dragon King Palace, and the Spirit Hall is the Spirit Hall, and everything is as the people of the mainland know.

The reality is that the Dragon King Palace and the Spirit Hall were originally one entity. It remains to be seen whether there will be a conflict between the Spirit Hall and the Dragon King Palace at that time, or whether the merger will be a mere symbolic gesture before being officially completed.

Wang Zhao leisurely finished the bowl of wine, then slowly stood up to leave.

The tavern suddenly fell silent. Wang Zhao, who was in the corner, raised his head slightly, looking in the direction of the patrons towards the door.

Just then, a thin, middle-aged man wearing a long robe, with a standard buzz cut, whose face could perhaps be considered handsome but looked slovenly due to his unkempt appearance, and who exuded a melancholy aura walked in.

"Hey, Master, here to drink standing up again?"

As the middle-aged man walked to the counter and stood there, he was soon greeted "enthusiastically" by other customers.

Yu Xiaogang was already used to this, so she ignored it.

Suddenly, someone else shouted, "I wonder if the master, with all his knowledge and talent, has registered a 'Talented Person' status in a free guild?"

Yu Xiaogang paused, then subtly puffed out her chest, and then, with an air of superiority, gave a nonchalant reply.

"have."

"...I wonder if the master has accepted any missions?"

"Of course there are."

Yu Xiaogang's posture became even more upright.

"The 'talented person' tag I registered with in the Free Guild is in the academic category. Many difficult questions in the Soul Master theory community have been posted on the Free Guild platform, and I have taken the initiative to help. Under my guidance, they have all been resolved."

"Oh?"

Someone then asked, "Knowledge is priceless, so you must have made a lot of money on drinks lately, Master?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's expression stiffened slightly.

"I was helping voluntarily, without expecting anything in return. After conveying the solution to the problem through the Free Guild, I didn't care about the reward anymore."

"I see..."

Just then, a strange, sarcastic voice suddenly rang out.
