It was from that moment onwards that Yun You understood, in this world, the only true justice would always be upheld by the people themselves.
Shen Ye knew this too.
So, like Yun You, he left his hometown where he had lived for over a decade.
Only, he and Yun You chose different paths; he went to the border region and became a mercenary.
In this era, being a mercenary was the easiest way to achieve class leap, but at the same time, it was the profession with the highest mortality rate, bar none.
On average, out of every hundred mercenaries, only fifty would complete the initial trial task, with the rest becoming food for the beasts of the wild.
And among the fifty survivors, forty were likely to die within a year, with seven surviving no more than two years, which marked the standard career length of a seasoned mercenary.
In other words, out of a hundred aspiring mercenaries, only three would eventually become seasoned mercenaries.
