Obviously, the next five-star red soil tundra secret realm is much more dangerous than the previous ones just by the name.
These days, although she trains her physical fitness every day, she strives every day based on her declaration of striving for the dream of becoming a contracted beast.
But to put it bluntly, Song Yu is essentially just a young girl who has just traveled through time from an ordinary peaceful society. Even though she became a movie queen in her previous life and has been working in the entertainment industry for many years, it still cannot change her peaceful nature.
"Don't be afraid... Before coming here, I asked other training instructors. In a Six-Nation Secret Realm Assessment Competition, students are only not allowed to submit requests for help within the first week... At other times, as long as you encounter danger and feel you can't hold on any longer, you can submit a request for help." Bai Yuhan lowered his voice and told some information he had gathered over the past few days.
Bai Yuhan, who was also confident of getting one of the 10 places, had consciously collected some relevant information more than half a month ago.
"...Thank you." Song Yu would accept other people's kindness. Song Yu glanced at Bai Yuhan and said nothing more.
Over the past twenty days, he had been avoiding her, intentionally or unintentionally. Even when they saw him at the training camp, he only nodded and said a brief greeting. Now, as the two of them were about to enter the secret realm, he said so much...
The child's awkwardness and the hero's self-esteem!
She understands!
Song Yu sighed, reached out and patted Bai Yuhan's shoulder, and said with a serious and sincere look: "... Without further ado, I hope that in the next few days, you can safely pass the secret realm assessment competition."
Song Yu thought for a moment and added two more words, encouragingly saying, "I know it's not easy for you right now...but all in all, everything will be fine in the future."
You will become the world's number one beastmaster in the future!
Song Yu silently added the last sentence in his heart.
In the darkness, Song Yu's eyes sparkled because of the faint light in front of him. His earnest, sincere and warm words were like a hot spring, reddening Bai Yuhan's heart.
The young man lowered his eyes slightly...it was clearly just the simplest two sentences.
But it was as if he suddenly had a piece of chocolate in his mouth, a little bitter, yet a little sweet.
Bai Yuhan said in a low but firm voice: "You are right, everything will be fine in the future."
…
The red soil continents look like the most primitive and ancient landforms, which are left behind after being dried and corroded by wind and sand.
Song Yubai Yuhan and others followed Lei Pengguo out of the secret space and saw vast expanses of red soil wasteland.
Aside from these people, a vast secret space realm loomed not far from the space gate! A woman in a white lab coat, camouflage-clad soldiers, and researchers were already busy at the entrance. An oversized security device, resembling a metal arch from a science fiction film, was placed at the entrance. Thousands of soldiers stood guard around it, constantly on guard.
The beastmasters with their contracted beasts are like the most powerful guardians, squatting at the entrance of the secret realm with their contracted beasts.
certainly……
Besides this, the biggest difference from the first time Song Yu saw the Secret Realm Gate was that about 500 meters away from the Secret Realm Gate, a row of green wooden houses stood nearby, surrounded by a variety of vines and flowers. They looked like unique and beautiful wooden houses in a scenic area. However, a closer look revealed that these wooden houses were clearly different from each other.
Song Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced around, and found that although these wooden houses were built in one place, they had seven different styles.
If you carefully divide these 7 different styles of wooden houses, you can see that they belong to 7 different national standard buildings.
I carefully recalled the simple wooden house where my parents lived near the secret place of snowfield.
Song Yu: “…”
Song Yu was silent for a moment. Could it be that the Six Nations Secret Realm Competition had started with the construction of the wooden house? Even the buildings of the host country, which had no intention of participating in the competition, were so competitive?
But it was obvious from her appearance that it was just as she guessed...
With Lei Pengguo walking in front, he led a group of a hundred people forward without stopping.
The contestants from other countries around them looked at them with cold and fighting eyes. Apart from anything else, from the perspective of international relations, their six countries were enemies rather than friends in most cases.
After all, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind...the same is true between countries.
"Damn, look at that gentle boy with blond hair and glasses next to you. His name is James. I heard that he is the number one beastmaster in Country L this year... Although he is only a student in the university group this year, his contracted beast is even more powerful than those in the graduate group." A student from the high school group next to Song Yu pointed at a boy next to him with blond short hair who looked gentle but expressionless and looked at them and said in a low voice.
"James? I've heard about that too... It's said that he's already a ninth-rank beastmaster, which means he possesses at least three ninth-rank exotic beasts... I wonder if there's anyone in our university and graduate student groups who can contend with him." Another female student nearby lowered her voice and spoke to her companions.
There was worry in the female student's eyes. A ninth-rank beastmaster is a top-notch existence for anyone, no matter which country they are from!
It is extremely difficult for an ordinary beastmaster to cultivate a ninth-level exotic beast in his lifetime, but the other party is only in his 20s and is already a ninth-level beastmaster. In this case, once their contestants face the other party's contestants, they are likely to be killed directly by the other party's contracted beast!
"Don't worry, there are always one or two ninth-level Beastmasters in the annual international competitions... But according to regulations, ninth-level Beastmasters must carry surveillance cameras at all times to prevent ninth-level Beastmasters from taking advantage of other countries' inattention and killing innocent people. If such a situation occurs, the candidate will be hunted down by the professional Beastmaster Guilds of each country." A tall and thin young man nearby also looked at James with fear, and said seriously to the others, "All eighth- and ninth-level Beastmasters in the assessment are subject to this rule. Unless other high-level Beastmasters are determined to fight to the death... Otherwise, under normal circumstances, even if they will rob the treasures and kill the contracted beasts, they will not directly kill the Beastmaster..."
"As long as no one dies... we can press the help button and let the examiner take us out."
The tall, thin young man lowered his voice and warned the other students, "Nothing else matters, only talent is the most important... You must protect your own lives. As the saying goes, if you have the green mountains, you will never lack firewood. When we break through to the ninth level one day, we will be able to defeat their people!"
Although the young man looks thin, his passion has infected many students nearby. It seems like some kind of signal. The students following Lei Pengguo have all become more motivated and expressed their own opinions on the assessment.
Song Yu didn't say anything. She and Bai Yuhan walked in the team, listening carefully to the explanations of other people around them, and also keeping their eyes on the contestants from other countries around them.
When they walked into an antique-style four-cornered wooden house, Lei Pengguo turned around and looked at them again.
"Look! Besides you, there are another 500 contestants here! They are all masters selected from talent training camps in various countries!"
"You! Students above level six, I hope you can strive for a place in the top 150! Students above level seven, I hope you can strive for the top 50 overall, and students at levels eight and nine, if you have the ability, can strive for the top 10 globally! But at the same time, I also hope you can do your best. After all, each and every one of you is the hope of our China!"
"I hope you can also protect yourselves during the competition! Someone just said it right, 'As long as there is life, there is hope.' As long as you are not a coward or a weakling, I will cheer for you. The high-level healing beast is over there. If any of you feel unwell, go there for treatment. The competition will begin in three hours!"
"Also, before entering the wilderness secret realm, everyone must be equipped with a communication bracelet... This is a special communication bracelet for the competition. It can refresh mission points at any time, and can also be used to communicate with other allies in the secret realm at any time. It can also send us distress signals! We examiners will be waiting at the entrance of the wilderness secret realm at any time! In addition, for candidates who are eighth- and ninth-level beastmasters, this communication bracelet will directly activate the camera recording function... You must not casually kill other candidates in the secret realm! No matter which country you are from, if you casually kill other candidates, you will be directly hunted down by high-level beastmasters from other countries!"
"In addition, you will also need to use your communication bracelet to sign an electronic life and death agreement!"
As Lei Pengguo finished his words, the people around him began to talk in low voices again.
Song Yu frowned, and Bai Yuhan also frowned subconsciously.
It is now a little after 11 o'clock in the morning. Three hours later, around 2 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, they will enter the wilderness area directly.
But usually, wilderness areas and secret realms are much more dangerous at night than during the day...
In other words, once these candidates enter the wilderness area, the first priority is not to complete the task, but to choose a safe place to live as soon as possible.
"Usually, a secret realm will only have one or two space entrances. Among so many space secret realms in the world, the most numerous one so far is the South China Sea Space Secret Realm, which has a total of three entrances... Judging from the situation, this secret realm should only have this one space entrance. If there are no space-related monsters... it is likely that, apart from the first safe residence we are looking for, the others are the other contestants who swarmed into the secret realm at the beginning." Bai Yuhan stood beside Song Yu, lowered his voice, and frowned slightly.
His eyes subconsciously looked at the other students.
He'd recently observed that while there were quite a few students in talent training camps nationwide who possessed space-based beasts, not many had achieved a level of power sufficient to carry people through space travel. Probably only around 20% of the total number of students in the camp... Even if the vast majority of those 20% possessed formidable abilities, the probability of them being able to use space travel wouldn't exceed 50%.
"Well... it seems that among the 600 candidates, at least 300 of them need to have their first battle today." Although Bai Yuhan lowered his voice, the other students around him were already concentrating, and everyone was standing together and quiet, so many people heard what Bai Yuhan said.
Many candidates who originally thought that they had flying beasts that could quickly take off and fly to observe the entire secret environment were suddenly startled and turned their heads to look at the familiar students around them, hoping to find familiar allies among these students who had space-type contract beasts.
Although Lei Penguo is quite old and has a head full of white hair, his ears are extremely sensitive and he heard Bai Yuhan's voice the first time.
Lei Pengguo looked at Bai Yuhan with appreciation and said, "You are right, so you must find your own accommodation within the next three or four hours... But there is one thing you are wrong..."
Lei Pengguo: "All 600 candidates entered through the same entrance, so naturally, today's first battle is unavoidable... But to ensure fairness and justice, before the exam begins, each of you will be led by the examiner's spatial contracted beast to perform a random spatial jump..."
Lei Pengguo: "That means all 600 of you candidates will be shuffled, and the examiners will be randomly teleported into this five-star secret realm!"
Lei Pengguo's eyes were sharp as knives, and he spoke with unprecedented seriousness and earnestness: "If you are lucky, the examiner will naturally teleport you to a good place at random. But if you are unlucky, you will most likely be teleported to a dangerous place in this Five Hearts Secret Realm! Maybe it's an ice field, maybe it's a mountain! Although this secret realm is called the Red Soil Tundra Secret Realm, most of the places in the secret realm are red soil tundra, but there are also mountains, rivers, forests and other places. In particular, there are many poisonous plants in this secret realm. If a candidate who does not have a space-type monster or a flying monster is teleported to a place full of poisons, I suggest that this candidate may give up the exam directly, stay where he is for seven days, send a distress signal, and follow the examiner back!"
"So! Even if you escape today's fight, you must remain vigilant at all times!" Lei Pengguo said seriously, "I don't want to see any of you lose your life due to carelessness in a month."
"After all, you are a genius selected from the national genius training camp... You shouldn't disappoint me so much, right?" Lei Pengguo's sharp eyes swept back and forth over everyone several times, and finally fell directly on Song Yu. His eyes were full of meaning, almost condensing into substance.
Song Yu: “…”
Song Yu was almost vomiting blood. She had no expression on her face and looked at Lei Pengguo silently.
Although her academic performance in this area is not good and she doesn't recognize many of the poisonous plants and animals in the adversity illustrations, she has a circle, okay!
With Quanquan by her side, following her around the clock, could she possibly have ingested something toxic? She'd brought a year's worth of food with her! There were dozens of boxes of canned meat, sausages, and the like!
However……
The old man was very bad, and since Lei Pengguo didn't mention him by name, Song Yu naturally couldn't say anything.
He could only silently shrink his body back, again and again, until his entire body was buried in Bai Yuhan's tall shadow.
"After you're teleported, I suggest you find allies as quickly as possible. You can use your points bracelet to find the nearest candidate from the same camp... That way, you'll have the strength to fight against the other candidates from the regular camp."
"Generally speaking, the further time goes by, the more united the candidates from various countries will become. In the end, it may become a team battle. Therefore, going it alone is very risky. I hope you will consider it carefully!"
As Lei Pengguo finished his words, many candidates nodded.
Half an hour later...
Song Yu and the others all received their own points bracelets. Made of black metal, they looked similar to the ones used at the National Talent Training Camp, but were a bit more advanced. Song Yu touched his bracelet, puzzled as to why his phone couldn't be combined with the special communication bracelet used in the Wilderness Secret Realm.
Logically speaking, this technique shouldn't be difficult...
At least, two sets of communication equipment should not be required.
Just like the communication equipment on Earth, we have seen mobile phones with dual SIM cards, but we have never seen a situation where a call can be made in two cities using different mobile phones and different communication companies.
"Hmm~" Song Yu was a little confused.
But the trivial thought only flashed through his mind briefly, and Song Yu quickly put the idea behind him. The most important thing now was to adjust his mentality as soon as possible!
Since it was confirmed that the examiner would use space-type monsters to teleport them one by one to various places in the Five-Star Secret Realm, and it was impossible to form an alliance right away, she could find a place to hide first depending on the situation.
As a lazy person with no fighting spirit, she thought she could just find a cave and stay there for a month like she had done in the secret realm of the snowfield before.
But thinking about how Qiuqiu and the other three little ones had been training hard in the Beast Taming Space every day, she felt that she still had to walk around, at least to satisfy Qiuqiu and the others' desire to become stronger.
Song Yu: Oh my god! Why is her contracted beast so ambitious? Can't it just be a humble person like her?!
Do you guys know what you missed?!
You missed the shortcut to the future that would have saved you 100 years of detours!
…
The three-story wooden building looks simple, with neither glass windowsills nor metal doors.
But at this moment, inside this three-story wooden building covered with green vines, sat the examiners and invigilators elected for the Six Nations Secret Realm Assessment Tournament.
Just by opening the door, you can see hundreds of small screens appearing on huge display screens.
On each screen, flickering white light, candidates appeared, sitting or standing. Some were in groups of three or five, whispering to each other, while others were preparing various items indoors. But in addition to these close-up live broadcasts, there were also small signal-capturing cameras hovering above the heads of the candidates, resembling aircraft.
This small signal-capturing camera is the latest generation of flying instruments built specifically for the filming of secret-land movies and TV series.
The energy cores in their bodies can allow them to fly and shoot in the secret realm for half a year at a time without charging, unless they are hit hard or damaged. This small signal capture camera can become the most important detection instrument in this assessment competition.
"With point-scoring bracelets for positioning, point-scoring bracelets for video surveillance, and small signal-capturing cameras... I'm sure this Six Nations Secret Realm Assessment will be a complete success." A middle-aged man with a mustache, accompanied by an interpreter, stood in the center of the room and said cheerfully, "We've deployed a total of 20,000 small signal-capturing cameras into the secret realm this time. I'm sure we'll be able to monitor the candidates' progress anytime, anywhere."
"Whether it can be successfully held is not up to you..."
A middle-aged man with golden-brown hair snorted coldly, his hawk-like gaze fixed directly on Ray-Pon. His voice was deep and hoarse, exuding a menacing and violent aura. He spoke in a defiant and stern tone, "I heard that a super genius has recently appeared in your country of China who can rapidly enable low-level exotic beasts to break through bloodline levels and evolve. And he even possesses a Level 6S Beast Taming Space?"
The middle-aged man with golden brown hair chuckled and said, "...I don't know who is stronger, your genius or James?"
A 6S-level beast-taming space? You must be kidding!
From the time the secret realm first appeared more than a thousand years ago until now, he had never heard of any 6s beast-taming space.
Over the years, even a genius-level beastmaster could only awaken a 4S-level beastmaster space, which could allow the contracted beast to evolve a hundred times faster.
As the highest leader of L Country who led the candidates to participate in the Six-Nation Secret Realm Assessment Competition, the middle-aged man with short golden-brown hair wanted to attack Lei Peng Country and embarrass China as soon as he opened his mouth.
Lei Pengguo was in high spirits at this moment, with white beard and white hair, and a smiling face, he looked just like Maitreya Buddha.
He said teasingly, looking at the middle-aged man and shaking his head, "Nibel, I never thought you would actually compare two children with a seven-year age gap... But seeing here today that you haven't changed in decades and are truly yourself, I'm still very happy for you."
Although Lei Pengguo didn't say it directly, his teasing tone and the hidden meaning in his words clearly said - Are you stupid? Do you lack confidence? Otherwise, how could you compare a high school student with a college student?
After all, when the former was in elementary school, the other child was still an egg cell!
"..." The smile that had just crept onto Nibel's cheek suddenly froze, and the middle-aged man with short golden-brown hair almost crushed the glass in his hand.
Fortunately, it was only a short moment, and Nibel regained his composure. He let out a long breath, looked up and down at Lei Pengguo, and said coldly, "I heard that the highest level of the contestants you brought this time is only level 8... and among the 600 candidates this time, only two have reached level 9..."
Nibel smiled, looked towards Lei Pengguo, and regained his confidence. "I hope your country's candidates won't encounter James early this time. After all... everyone who knows James knows that kid has a bad temper. Although he became a Ninth-Rank Beastmaster at a young age, his temper is not as calm as other Ninth-Rank Beastmasters... Perhaps it's because he reached the Ninth Rank at such a young age that he always looks down on those students of the same age who are less capable."
Lei Pengguo didn't say anything, but looked at the other party with a frown.
Nibel spread his hands and smiled. "...So, James is always so careless when sparring with others... After all, why would an elephant care about an ant on the ground? If it just crushes it to death with a random kick, it's not the elephant's fault."
For a moment, the entire monitoring room was filled with the smell of blood and rain.
