Chapter 67: Blade and Barrel Comrades

...

"Excuse me, do you also happen to have another name called Gragas?"

Several people:

When Zeng Yi asked this question, Kali and the others were confused for a moment, and then their gaze turned to Zeng Yi.

"Haha~, brother, you misunderstood just now. The name of the barrel is actually Kas." Xiong Yi thought that Zeng Yi had misheard it just now, so he laughed and reminded Zeng Yi.

"What the hell? I'm called Kas, alright?"

"Hehe, brother, your appearance reminds me of an old friend. Sorry, sorry, just a little joke!" Zeng Yi apologized to Kas with embarrassment.

"Hahaha, let's stop talking and drink!" Xiong Dahao laughed heartily and said.

Kali went to bring some snacks and sat down with them.

"Kali, aren't you the boss? Why are you working as a waitress?" Seeing Kali's appearance, Zeng Yi couldn't help but ask. But Kali was dressed as a waiter, which had its own charm!

"She took a leave today, so I'm filling in for her. Don't judge by appearances, I also help out at the tavern sometimes. After all, it's our family's shop."

"I see!" Zeng Yi nodded in understanding.

In the Qingka Tavern, there were not many customers, only a few people left, including Zeng Yi, Kali, and the two brothers from the Xiong family. However, the tavern was not cool and quiet at all, but rather lively. The hearty laughter echoed in the tavern, and the sound of clinking glasses occasionally sounded. The group of people enjoyed this leisurely afternoon and had fun.

Zeng Yi became acquainted with Kas at the drinking table. Kas had some hostility towards Zeng Yi before, thinking that his sister Kali was interested in Zeng Yi. After all, he didn't want his brother-in-law to be a younger man, even if he was stronger than him. But after some conversation with Zeng Yi at the drinking table, he felt that Zeng Yi's personality suited his temper, so they started treating each other like brothers.

Sometimes, friendship between men is so inexplicable and simple.

"Cough~"

Kas coughed after drinking and exhaled a strong alcohol breath. His chubby cheeks were already flushed, and his gaze was somewhat fuzzy. It seemed like he was a bit drunk.

"Brother, let me ask you, do you like my sister?"

"Uh..."

Surprised by his sudden question, Zeng Yi was at a loss for words.

"Let me tell you, my sister may look good on the outside, but she has a more masculine personality than men. I'm telling you, when looking for a woman, don't find someone like her."

Just as Zeng Yi was about to reply, Kas suddenly said something again, which left Zeng Yi bewildered.

You dare say that when your sister is still here? Didn't she tell you to eat some appetizers? But you didn't listen! If you had eaten some peanuts, you wouldn't have gotten drunk like this! Are you drunk now? It's a shame that you're nicknamed the barrel, so embarrassing.

Zeng Yi couldn't help but inwardly comment, and his gaze inadvertently glanced at Kali next to him. At this moment, her face was turning green with anger, and her smooth forehead bulged with blue veins, and her angry gaze was fixed on this foolish smiling brother. Kali quickly grabbed an empty bottle on the table and fiercely smashed it towards his fat face.

"Haha, this is just my temper! But there have been so many men chasing after me. But with your pig-like appearance, you can only find women in those places, haha." Kali mockingly laughed at Kas, her own brother, without mercy.

She had been playing with Xiao Ju and didn't drink much, so she was very clear-headed.

Zeng Yi was also shocked by Kali's fierce behavior.

"Uh, haha, sorry, sis, my bad." After being hit by his sister with a bottle, although it didn't cause any harm to his Spirit Master status, Kas immediately sobered up and apologized to Kali with a smile.

"Hahaha~"

"Hahaha~"

Seeing Kas being taught a lesson by his sister, Xiong Da and Xiong Er laughed carefree.

"Hahaha, Zeng Yi, let me tell you, don't be deceived by his nickname 'barrel.' He actually has the worst alcohol tolerance among us. 'Barrel' is a sarcastic nickname for him." Xiong Yi said to Zeng Yi.

"Hahaha, I see. So you're really pathetic!" Zeng Yi mocked Kas, feeling more comfortable with him and no longer restrained in his speech.

"Nonsense! I'm not drunk at all!" Kas retorted stubbornly when they laughed at him, trying to save face.

"Then what just happened?"

"I was just showing my true feelings. Is that considered getting drunk?"

Later, Kas said something that others couldn't understand, and for a moment, the tavern was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"By the way, Zeng Yi, do you have anything to do tonight? If not, come to our tavern at night, and we can have a wild party for you." Xiong Da suddenly spoke to Zeng Yi.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yi paused with the cup in his hand, thought for a moment, and said, "That's possible. However, I have to go to the Suotuo Arena later in the evening, take a walk there, and it should end soon. I'll come after that."

Aren't we drinking now? Are you guys so idle? Are you going to spend every day like this, drinking and partying? Zeng Yi couldn't help but think.

But then he realized that he was also quite idle. He was wandering around the city during the day and went to the arena at night to make money, then came back to practice. A day passed just like that, and he felt like a salted fish.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to Zeng Yi's mind, as if he thought of something.

"Brother, do you play Soul Fighting?" Zeng Yi looked straight at Kas and asked him.

"Soul Fighting?" When Kas heard Zeng Yi's question, he was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

"I've played Soul Fighting."

"In that case, let's have a match tonight, just the two of us!"

Night fell, and the busiest place in Suotuo City, the Suotuo Arena, was flooded with people. Zeng Yi and Kas were among the crowd.

Yes, Zeng Yi took Kas out at night for this purpose, so that he could accompany him in the two-on-two Soul Fighting at the arena.

Because of the rules of the arena, one could only participate in one type of Soul Fighting per day. Since Zeng Yi was alone without a partner, every time he thought about the ten gold soul coins that could be obtained from the two-on-two Soul Fighting, it pained him greatly. So, in order not to continue feeling that pain, he brought Kas out to earn that money.

Zeng Yi first took Kas to the Soul Fighting ranking platform for solo ranking, and then prepared to sign up for the two-on-two Soul Fighting.

"Why aren't you playing solo?" Seeing that Kas didn't participate in the solo ranking, Zeng Yi was confused and couldn't help but ask.

"Uh, that, I'd better not participate. My level and soul power level are too low. I don't want to go." Kas said embarrassingly.

In one-on-one Soul Fighting, opponents of the same realm were encountered. But he was only at level 33 now. Generally speaking, others would wait for their level to become higher within the same realm before participating in Soul Fighting. Otherwise, it felt like serving food to others, boosting their experience.

"You're wrong about this. How do you know you will lose if you haven't tried? If you think about it this way, even if you lose, you can gain practical combat experience. And if you win, you can get a monetary reward! It's basically like winning blood money, not losing anything, even making some profit! So why hesitate? This doesn't cost anything. Sign up quickly." Zeng Yi persuaded Kas.

But Kas still hesitated a bit, feeling a little guilty. However, after Zeng Yi said a few more words, he believed in Zeng Yi's persuasion and signed up.

After arranging this, Zeng Yi and Kas came to the registration area of the Soul Fighting field, looking for the staff to sign up for the two-on-two Spirit Master Soul Fighting.

Zeng Yi told the girl at the counter, handed her ten gold soul coins as the registration fee, and the staff quickly began the registration process for Zeng Yi.

"Please come up with a name for your team." The staff said to Zeng Yi.

"A name?"

At the words, Zeng Yi frowned and pondered for a moment. Soon, he came up with a good name.

"Let's call ourselves Blade and Barrel Comrades!"
