“What the hell. What the hell. What the hell.”
After a while, Lu Ran and Shi Ze left the Death Forest. After coming out, Shi Ze was quite shocked and said, “Brother Lu, City Lord Ye actually intends to take you as his disciple. Aren’t you going to heaven?”
"Hmm?" Lu Ran looked at him puzzledly.
"Hey, I almost forgot your identity. You are so calm... Could it be that your parents are also legendary powerful people..." Shi Ze's mouth twitched.
Son of legend!
Shi Ze thought about it and felt that it was really possible. No, even the Son of Legend was not as good as Lu Ran. After all, this guy seemed to have come into contact with legendary creatures.
"Don't tell anyone else what City Lord Ye and I just said. I don't want others to know that I have had contact with legendary creatures. I told you directly because I trust you, Brother Shi." Lu Ran patted Shi Ze's shoulder.
"Don't worry about this. I won't even tell my own father about what happened just now! I will keep it to myself, or I'll be screwed by the dogs." Shi Ze promised.
“But then again, City Lord Ye is right. With your status, not every plant master would dare to accept you as a disciple. After all, this is equivalent to poaching from the Beast Master’s House…” Shi Ze pondered,
"The Lord City Lord doesn't care and asked you to remain a beastmaster and accept disciples. It may be because she also switched from beast taming, and it's not that the first thing she came into contact with was taming plants."
"Do you remember I told you that there are rumors that the city lord wants to take in an apprentice to inherit her family's beast taming skills? Maybe the city lord is attracted by your talent for beast taming! And the knowledge of plant taming is just incidental."
"It doesn't matter. As long as I can learn advanced knowledge about imperial plants, it's enough." Lu Ran said without any hesitation: "Does the city lord have any old enemies? She said she wanted to invite a friend's disciple to participate in the competition. How can this be called a friend..."
"You obviously want to see me eliminate his disciples..."
"I really don't know about this..." Shi Ze was stunned. "But it's normal. City Lord Ye can become a legend, so how could he not have a few strong enemies along the way? However, a third-level plant master and a dominant species plant pet, this looks difficult to deal with."
"There are still 6 days left, Brother Lu, can you break through to the third level of Beast Tamer?"
"No!" Lu Ran said firmly.
The bad thing about the Beastmaster in Infinite City is that breakthroughs are not decided by the Beastmaster himself.
Being stuck at various levels in Infinite City.
You need to complete the tasks given by the Infinite City to reach the next realm.
However, it would be rude to talk about defects without considering the benefits.
Although the growth level is stuck, Infinite City has opened up another track for Beastmasters.
Pet evolution.
In the Star-Moon Continent and the Divine Tree Continent, there is no such thing as pets evolving to level 30 or 60, or the first or second stage.
The methods of evolving pet beasts are all first-class beast taming secrets that not everyone can access.
But the beastmasters trained in Infinite City are different. Their pets are given the opportunity to evolve directly by Infinite City due to their fusion characteristics.
Even for the weakest beastmaster, the pet may have a moment to change its fate through evolution.
"What should we do then?" Shi Ze started to worry about Lu Ran. He still wanted Lu Ran to become City Lord Ye's disciple.
After all, Lu Ran and the Shi family are quite close. If Lu Ran becomes the city lord's disciple, the Shi family will gain a lot of benefits.
"Although I may not be able to break through, I do need to prepare."
"You can try to have your pet train properly this week. Don't forget that its ability can restrain plant life to a certain extent, so don't worry too much."
Lu Ran said, "Besides, he has more than one Ha Zong. Isn't there also the King of Sudden Death?" Just the area of the Death Forest.
Honestly speaking, if Lu Ran wasn't afraid of causing too much bloodshed and affecting the city lord's impression, he would have let the King of Sudden Death fly high into the sky and jump down, turning on the Thunder Flame Dragon mode, and smashing into the Death Forest.
The entire forest turned directly into a meteorite crater. Okay, no contestant can escape, and no evil plant can survive.
…………
Because of Lu Ran, the Death Forest was cleared quickly. Some contestants who came to familiarize themselves with the preliminary trial location in advance did not dare to complain after hearing that it was the order of the city lord.
"Sister Yang, can you find out what happened today?"
Liu Man, the imperial plant master of Xingyue University, asked the natives of Tree Realm City whom they came into contact with.
Like Lu Ran, Yu Rui and three other beastmasters from other worlds were quickly discovered by the local tyrants in Tree Realm City to have distinguished themselves and were invited. Among them, since Yu Rui and Liu Man were both plant masters, they naturally chose to contact the plant master family. Although Jiang Ming was a beastmaster who raised dragons, considering that this breakthrough in the secret realm was unusual, he did not dare to separate from the two of them. He unexpectedly abandoned the invitation from the beastmaster family and ran to hug Yu Rui's thigh.
"I'll try and see. What happened today was indeed weird." The lady in the floral dress looked thoughtful.
It has to be said that from the perspective of Liu Man and others, this breakthrough in the secret realm is indeed too strange and confusing.
…………
Shi family.
Lu Ran came back here again. After coming back, he asked the Shi family for a training ground to practice with President Ha, and signaled the Shi family not to disturb him.
As for Shi Ze, although he wanted to lend a helping hand to Lu Ran, considering that the level of the Shi family was not on the same level as that of the Beast Taming House, he decided not to do anything to help.
However, Lu Ran was also well versed in the art of socializing, and knew that he had to give the Shi family a chance to perform, so he asked Shi Ze to find several special dangerous plants for Dark Crow to use in his research.
So.
Boss Ha is training in the ferocious plant field, King Sudden Death is adapting to the thunder and fire mode, Dark Crow is researching a new type of curse, and Lu Ran and the others are starting to prepare for the Plant and Beast Competition in a few days.
Lu Ran was confident that he could achieve good results in a normal competition, but now that he was faced with the top-level branch quest of becoming a disciple of a legend, he did not dare to be careless and started a temporary assault to ensure a 100% success rate.
At this time, Yu Rui and others were also looking for the source of the anomaly they felt in the Death Forest, trying to unearth hidden side quests. Unfortunately, Shi Ze kept silent about this matter, and City Lord Ye was not someone that ordinary people could contact, so even though they investigated, they didn't find much.
At the same moment, City Lord Ye also arrived at a super main city where a legendary strongman was also stationed.
"What are you doing here?"
The person who walked out of the main city was also an old lady. Judging from her temperament, she was somewhat similar to City Lord Ye.
"Senior Sister." If there were anyone from Tree World City present at this moment, they would definitely be very surprised. After all, there had never been a rumor that City Lord Ye had a senior sister.
"I found a good beast tamer and I want to take him as my apprentice, but I don't want to teach him easily, so I plan to give him a test." City Lord Ye said, "So I want to borrow your disciple and let her participate in the Plant Beast Competition in Tree Realm City to put some pressure on him."
"Hmm?" The red-haired old woman asked unexpectedly, "Who is the one who made you want to take him as your disciple?"
"But... Beast Tamer, what on earth do you want to do? Are you still being pretentious? Beast Taming is the tear of the times. There is no land in the Divine Tree Continent that can support Beast Tamers anymore."
"That being said, I still feel a little regretful. I also struggled at that time. Why couldn't Beastmaster defeat Yuzhi? I saw a glimmer of hope in him." City Lord Ye said. Born into a family of beastmasters and having been exposed to beastmasters since childhood, she naturally liked beastmasters. But unfortunately, it was also a fact that Beastmaster was not as good as Yuzhi. After all, between dreams and reality, she chose reality.
"So, this beast tamer seedling you discovered has amazing potential?" asked Ye Chuanqi's senior sister.
“Even if he is your beloved disciple, he may not be able to defeat him.” Ye Chuanqi laughed. After all, Lu Ran came from the Beast Taming House, his pet was also a dominant one, and he had even come into contact with legendary creatures.
“Haha.” Ye Chuanqi’s sister shook her head disdainfully and said, “Forget it, as long as you are happy. I will let her go. Don’t blame me if the person you favor loses and loses confidence.”
"nature."
After the invitation was completed, Ye Chuanqi returned to Tree World City with satisfaction. At the same time, a talented plant master who was nearly twenty years old, at the request of his master, set out for Tree World City to participate in the Plant Beast Competition there.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
Soon it was the day of the preliminary round of the Plant-Beast Contest.
Since this so-called preliminary round was to be held in the forest, there were naturally few spectators.
On that day, only hundreds of geniuses from surrounding cities and examiners mobilized from the nine major families gathered inside and outside the Death Forest.
"Brother Lu, you are really able to hold it in. You actually practiced hard for several days in a row."
Shi Ze and Lu Ran were waiting together outside the Death Forest. Shi Ze admired Lu Ran very much for being able to persist in practicing hard for several days without moving.
"You've run out of flattery." Lu Ran was merciless, "Isn't this the basics?"
"How could it be? After two days of closed-door training, I feel like ants are crawling all over my body. I have to watch the Flower Princess Dance to calm down and continue training." Shi Ze said, "Ah, I actually forgot to take you, Brother Lu, to watch the Flower Princess Dance in Shujie City. What a sin. Let's go after the competition is over?"
Lu Ran was silent for a moment, he almost forgot that the beastmasters of the Shenshu Continent also needed to practice on their own and concentrate on meditation.
Compared to that, the training of the beastmasters in the Shenshu Continent is indeed more boring, and it is normal that they cannot persist for two days. Unlike him, he does not need to meditate on his own, and can just arrange for his pet to practice on its own.
Lu Ran's practice is at most to hone his skills in taming beasts, but practicing these skills is much more interesting than meditation, and it is not boring at all.
Whether it is super-simulating a pet or cooking with fire spirits, there is always a sense of freshness every time.
Just like now, Lu Ran is also studying the sword domain, to see if he can also learn the sword domain from Mr. Ha. Once he gets into it, time flies quickly and it is not boring at all...
"The preliminaries will start soon!!!"
"Please prepare yourself, contestants!!"
When Shi Ze and Lu Ran were communicating, the preliminaries were about to begin. An examiner with a magic-eating flower beside him shouted, and as soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of hundreds of contestants present all became serious.
"Let me describe the contents of the preliminary round. You will depart from here. The assessment goal is to travel through the entire forest and reach the other side of the forest. Those who successfully reach the other side will advance to the next round of the main competition."
"The shuttling process allows you to interfere with each other and eliminate your competitors, regardless of life or death."
"So, please confirm again whether you want to participate in this competition!!"
No limit to life or death!
Many beastmasters took a deep breath, but for the high reward, they were willing to give it a try.
It is always safer to participate in this competition than to go out into the wild to obtain resources.
"You guys have to be careful next time. This preliminaries is more dangerous than the main race. Let's move forward as a team. Don't lose me."
On the other side, Yu Rui looked at Liu Man and Jiang Ming with soft heart. After all, they were beastmasters from the same place. In this breakthrough secret realm where there was no death-free mechanism, he couldn't bear to ignore the two of them completely.
"Thank you, thank you." Liu Man and the other person looked at Yu Rui with gratitude.
At the same time, the three of them turned their eyes in the direction of Lu Ran.
Very worried about one issue.
As trial participants from different worlds, at this moment, they still don’t know what Lu Ran’s position is. If Lu Ran regards them as enemies, then there is bound to be a fight between them.
But fortunately, Lu Ran was alone and there were three of them.
Thinking of Yu Rui's strength, Liu Man and Jiang Ming felt a little relieved.
Even if a conflict arises, Lu Ran will definitely be the loser.
"Well, the preliminaries begin———" the examiner shouted again. Although fighting was allowed during the preliminaries, the ones fighting against each other were actually the nine major families. After all, the more people from other families were eliminated, the greater the benefits their own family could gain.
However, even if there is a fight, few people would start a fight right at the beginning, as that would make them the target of public criticism and allow the underdog to take advantage.
Buzz!!!!
The preliminaries began, and then, one by one, the beast masters and plant masters summoned their own beast pets and plant pets and quickly entered the Death Forest.
But at this moment, as three people summoned their pets, the entire entrance to the Death Forest suddenly became silent.
Boom!!! At the beginning, Yu Rui summoned his huge war tree that was several meters tall. It was a legion-type plant pet. The various fruits and leaves hanging on its body all had faces, like soldiers.
"Overlord!" Feeling the breath of the ancient war tree, the expressions of many contestants changed. With the Overlord leading the way, the Death Forest will be very smooth for Yu Rui.
Not only him, there was also another beautiful woman among the contestants who summoned a dominant plant pet, which was a humanoid flower demon king. The anthropomorphic flower demon king had long dark green leaves as arms, and its lower body was wrapped in light-colored tulip-shaped leaves, just like wearing a skirt. It raised its head covered with flowers with a proud look, and the surrounding plant pets couldn't help but surrender to its skirt under its breath.
"Low-level overlord, Flower Demon King!"
In an instant, two dominant pets appeared, and countless contestants felt a jolt in their hearts, wondering what was going on in this championship.
The beastmasters in particular looked gloomy.
But fortunately, the last overlord that appeared this time was not a plant pet.
"Uh-woo————" The huge and majestic Ha appeared with the wind and snow, and his eyes revealed a sharp sword intent, causing many lives that were watching him to feel a sharp pain in their spirits! !
[Race]: Sword Domain Dog
[Attributes]: Wind, Ice [Racial Level]: Low-level overlord!
Mr. Ha's message fell directly into Yu Rui's eyes, causing his expression to change. He looked at Lu Ran and said, "Overlord???"
"This guy is really not simple."
"What, he also has a Overlord?" Liu Man and Jiang Ming were also shocked. That NPC woman was fine, but what was wrong with this alien beastmaster? How could he also have an Overlord at level 2? Was this person as special as Yu Rui, or were all alien beastmasters configured in this way? (End of this chapter)
