Chapter 1457: Chapter 1457: "Useless" Summoner vs. Self-Important Cannon Fodder Girl (Part 8)

"""

On the first day Gu Shengyin arrived in this world, she successfully attracted Yuan Qin’s enmity and gained a friend.

This friend was self-declared by Yuan Tianheng.

He appears to have deep affection for his dog named Big Black, so whoever Big Black likes is his friend.

The "befriended" Gu Shengyin: "..."

However, thinking about it carefully, living as Yuan Tianyi in the Yuan Family, becoming friends with Yuan Tianheng should probably be considered a good thing.

And whether it was the Chief Steward suddenly feeling a pang of conscience or because of Yuan Tianheng, Gu Shengyin found her life becoming much easier.

Every day, her three lavish meals, packed in exquisite lunchboxes, were delivered to the entrance of her courtyard—at Gu Shengyin’s request, she didn’t like others encroaching on her territory without consent.

On her second day in this world, after soliciting her approval, a large group of craftsmen-like people entered her small courtyard, and in just one afternoon, they remodeled the entire area.

Looking at the newly transformed courtyard, Gu Shengyin sighed, "Finally looks like a place fit for living."

After everyone had left, Gu Shengyin returned to her room.

Her expression turned indifferent.

Clearly, this group of craftsmen was not the work of the Chief Steward—he didn’t need to go out of his way to please a seemingly dim future lady.

Then it could only have been Yuan Tianheng.

It seems she underestimated the status of the direct line descendants of the Yuan Clan within the family.

No wonder, upon seeing her for the first time, Yuan Tianheng said such words.

Obviously, to him, someone being bullied by a subsidiary line was truly useless, wasn’t it?

She recalled the gray-clad figure beside Yuan Tianheng who had thrown Yuan Qin out—that was also one of the differences between direct and subsidiary lines.

For the direct line descendants of the Yuan Family, after the talent test at the age of five, the family would assign a protector at least at the Martial King Realm for each promising direct line descendant.

These protectors, all trained by the Yuan Family, would directly establish a contract with their new masters and thereafter owe loyalty solely to their young master.

Even if their master’s orders conflicted with the decisions of the Chief of the Yuan Family, the protector only needed to follow their master’s will.

From the day they became a young master’s protector, this martial artist no longer belonged to the Yuan Family but was solely the confidant of that direct line descendant.

Martial Kings... the Yuan Family surely spares no expenses.

Gu Shengyin tutted in admiration.

In this world, the highest status belongs to Summoners, but besides Summoners and ordinary people, there exists another vocation—Martial Artists.

Though Martial Artists’ status is not above that of Summoners, high-ranked Martial Artists still command respect.

The ranks of Martial Artists: Samurai, martial master, Martial King, Martial Emperor, and Martial Venerable.

The status of Martial Artists is not higher than that of Summoners, largely because it is very hard for Martial Artists to advance.

A Martial King-level martial artist is already an extremely powerful one on this Demon Beast continent.

Yet, a Martial King-level powerhouse’s combat ability may only equal that of a level six Demon Beast.

As for Martial Emperors, they are already extraordinarily powerful martial artists in this region. Such powerhouses are not to be easily provoked, even by high-level summoners—after all, in terms of solo combat capability, a high-ranked summoner may not necessarily be a match for a Martial Emperor.

In front of a Martial Emperor, a high-level summoner might not even have the chance to act.
