"I know you don't mean that."

Old man Jiang Dou shed tears.

Ha, the master contracts the sword spirit.

He also contracted a sword spirit.

To think of it in the worst case, he is treated the same as Erha.

But how can we think of something bad in this kind of situation?

Lu Ran is a filial person and is definitely not that kind of evil person.

You have to think positively.

Boss Ha is not only a dog, but also the strongest swordsman on Blue Star.

If we replace them in the same way, he and the strongest creature in Blue Star Sword Dao have the same configuration! Thinking of this, I feel much more comfortable.

"Well, Master, let me take you to receive your new favorite."

Lu Ran smiled slightly, waved his hand, and space fluctuations appeared around him.

Although Master Jiang Dou was surprised at what it was, he still followed happily.

In the relic space.

Lu Ran's pets were not undergoing any training at the moment.

As a beastmaster, Lu Ran is still very humane.

They won't exploit people like capitalists do. Pets only need to be trained for a few hours a day, and they can rest on their own for the rest of the time.

Of course... due to the existence of the broken horn of the sacred deer, there are mysteries in these few hours of training, and the intensity may be a bit unusual.

Now.

Seeing Lu Ran bringing an old man into the ruins, Mr. Ha's eyes lit up first, and he ran over excitedly with three sword babies.

“Woof!!”

“Boss Ha.” The old man saw that Boss Ha was getting bigger and bigger, and said with a smile: “I thought you had great potential at the beginning, and now you are getting even better.”

"The Sword Realm is so cool." The old man patted Mr. Ha's thigh and praised him.

Mr. Ha hissed and smiled.

“Woof woof woof!”

Master Jiang Dou turned around and asked Lu Ran, "What is it saying? It doesn't sound like it's happy to accept the compliment."

"Uh." Lu Ran beside him had a dark face.

Just kick Mr. Ha away.

"nothing……"

Lu Ran was furious. Just now, Mr. Ha said that it was just the sword domain. Now even Mr. Lu has understood it. There is nothing worth praising.

Evil dog!

If there wasn't someone around, Lu Ran would have to teach this dog a lesson.

Let it also experience the beast being killed in the arms of the King of Sudden Death, or the pig-transforming curse of the Dark Crow.

"You really got Erha a few sword lives!"

At this moment, Master Jiang Dou also paid attention to the two sword spirits and sword grass.

He is no longer a novice in beast taming, and can tell at a glance that these are undead and plant lives.

"It is Mr. Ha's responsibility to restore the glory of kendo!" Lu Ran said seriously.

Jiang Dou Leng: ???

Then what are you doing.

He looked at Lu Ran.

This kid, I wonder if he is still thinking about guns.

Old Master Jiang Dou knew that there was a school of pets in the other world called mechanical pets...

According to online information, there are many gun lives, tank lives, fighter plane lives, mecha lives and so on.

Young people seem to like these...

"Master, take a look at it." At this time, Lu Ran called out and summoned the Wind and Thunder Sword Spirit.

Under Mr. Ha's training, the Wind and Thunder Sword Spirit already knew that it would follow this old man to practice next.

However, it compared itself with the vigorous Lu Ran and the less energetic Master Jiang Dou, and suddenly burst into tears.

This old man looks so weak! Seeing this, the corner of Mr. Jiang Dou's mouth twitched.

OK.

It would have been fine if Lu Ran had refused to follow this old man at first, but now this sword spirit seemed to dislike him as well.

Are people and pets so realistic nowadays?

“Be good…”

Old Master Jiang Dou looked at the Wind and Thunder Sword Spirit, and for a moment he didn't know how to coax it. Seeing this, Lu Ran smiled and said, "Master, just show it a little trick."

"Show me your skills?" Old man Jiang Dou understood immediately after hearing what he said. He then raised his right hand seriously and extended two fingers.

Buzz!!! The next moment, he shook his arm, and a shocking rainbow light spread between his two fingers, and a sharp sword intent soared into the sky.

Lu Ran and the others only felt a flash before their eyes, and then they saw that in the distant sky there seemed to be a rainbow sword afterimage hanging in it, which was exceptionally gorgeous.

"Awesome." Lu Ran was also stunned when he saw this. He didn't expect that the old man's sword skills had reached such a level.

He is the apprentice beastmaster.

Seeing this, the Wind and Thunder Sword Spirit was also surprised and sensed it.

No matter what kind of life it is, it all "worships the strong". This little swordsman was inspired by the powerful sword intent released by Master Jiang Dou, and his impression of Master Jiang Dou immediately changed.

In a flash, he came closer.

"Little guy, just follow me, an old man, and you won't go wrong."

"Then I will make you the second life on Blue Star to master the sword domain!!"

Next to him, Lu Ran wanted to correct him, it was the third one... no, maybe the sixth one.

However, seeing the old man so happy, he couldn't bear to hit him anymore.

As long as the other party is happy.

“Old man, if you want to enter the secret realm of breakthrough, remember to be careful.” Lu Ran said: “If it was in the past, there would be a high probability that you would only be matched with domestic beast masters, so it’s no big deal.”

"But now the chances of matching with Star-Moon Federation Beast Tamers are getting higher and higher... Please be careful."

Master Jiang Dou smiled and said, "Well, I will be careful. If it was just me, I would be fine. I'm already so old. But now that we have the little golden eagle and the little sword spirit, I have to make sure they grow up smoothly, haha."

"Also, don't underestimate me, your master. Your old president can become the strongest in the world at this age. If you give me a few more years, I should be able to become one of the top ten in Xia Country. It shouldn't be a problem."

“Okay, okay, okay.” Lu Ran surrendered. The old man’s competitive spirit was aroused again. It was true that men were young until death. He was old enough to pee in his shoes, but he still wanted to become stronger.

However, with the addition of sword skills and a sword spirit, this configuration will probably make it difficult for him to become weaker even if he wants to.

After Lu Ran handed over the Wind and Thunder Sword Spirit to Master Jiang Dou, he finally returned to the Green Sea with satisfaction. At this time, Dark Crow had also handed over the Dragon Stele to Black Turtle, and Black Turtle's combat power was further upgraded.

…

When Lu Ran returned to Green Sea, publicity for the Alliance Challenge had already spread to various countries.

Although it is not a competition in the traditional sense, this is the first large-scale beast taming event that invites all countries in the world to challenge.

According to the International Beast Tamer Alliance, a total of first, second and third generation beast tamers from 51 countries were invited to serve as gatekeepers for this alliance challenge, providing opportunities for second, third and fourth generation beast tamers from over 200 countries to challenge the levels.

Each different challenger will be randomly assigned a team of five defenders from different countries, which will be a super large beast taming feast.

Every battle will be broadcast live around the world.

Ultimately, the public resources accumulated over the past three years in the International Alliance resource pool will be distributed based on the results of each country's efforts.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this challenge competition is actually prepared for the second generation of beastmasters.

After all, if you want to divide more resources, you have to go through as many levels as possible.

Even if some of the third and fourth generation have stronger talents and potential, the second generation takes longer to develop and is theoretically stronger.

When facing second-generation gatekeepers, you will be more capable of fighting.

However, as long as there are no hard and fast rules, there will always be variables no matter what happens.

The headquarters of the Xia Kingdom Beast Taming Alliance.

The old president looked at the final recommended lineup for Xia Country and fell into deep thought.

Qin Ming, the strongest second-generation beastmaster in Xia country, the dean of the combat department of Beastmaster University, and a newly promoted fifth-level beastmaster.

no problem.

Xia Country's newly promoted fifth-level beastmaster, who had just broken through the secret realm, the Living Fossil Guild's Youxiong president...

President Youxiong was originally a leader among the second-generation beast tamers, and now his strength has greatly increased due to the guidance of the iron-eating beast guardian, so there is no problem.

And, among the fourth generation beastmasters, the only one at level three is... Lu Ran.

"The five gatekeepers are one third generation, three second generation, and one first generation."

"That third generation is most likely a fourth-level beastmaster, a relatively strong third generation."

"Three second-generations, probably two fourth-levels, one fifth-level, plus the last fifth-level first-generation..."

"It's quite interesting to let Lu Ran, who is a fourth-generation, third-level player, challenge. The Twelve Branches recommended Lu Ran, which shows that this kid is very confident in his own strength."

The old president stroked his beard, and then saw a letter of encrypted information attached.

[Lu Ran has cultivated the Beast Taming Skill: Dependents. His first pet, the Sword Domain Dog, has an additional contract with two king pets, the Long-Leafed Sword Grass and the Winter Sword Spirit. They can be added to a contract card. The three-in-one has extremely strong combat power. In 3v1, he may be able to defeat the first generation - Manager Ying and Gu Qingyi.]

"Huh?"

He pondered for a moment and called Lu Ran.

"Old President??"

On the other side, Lu Ran was a little surprised when he received the call.

"The Alliance Challenge is about to begin. I saw the list of Xia Country and you are on it."

"Well, Manager Ying said that I could get a lot of resources, so I asked Dr. Gu and the others to choose me. Although my opponents are all second-generation, my pet has a certain racial advantage, so it's not impossible to fight."

Lu Ran did not have any specific target resources for participating in this competition. He just wanted to help Xia Kingdom win more resources. After all, his Dark Crow Legion still relied on Xia Kingdom's resources for support.

"The gatekeeper of the fourth level will most likely have a pet of the dominant race, so your advantage won't be that great. There are already many second-generation people in the world who have bred new pets of the dominant race."

"However, I saw Gu Qingyi's encrypted intelligence saying that you have a contract card with three pets???"

"Yes, if we can use this trump card, let alone the second generation, maybe we can even try to defeat the first generation."

"Do you think this challenge is worth exposing this trump card?" Lu Ran asked.

The old president was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Hahaha, this fifth level was designed with no intention of letting people pass it. If you can pass all five levels in a row, the resources available to Xia Country will be enormous. The resources invested in the Black Dragon incident can be returned instantly."

"But how much you are willing to expose yourself to is up to you."

Lu Ran pondered, and said: "It doesn't matter to me. I'm only level three, and my strength is not yet finalized. My fighting style is changing all the time. It's okay to show off my dependent skills, but I may need the support of Xia Country. After all, if I really beat the first generation of guards, I'm afraid others will not recognize it."

The old president said: "You don't have to worry about this. Even Infinite City has recognized that the three of them are one. The International Alliance is nothing."

"That's right. I originally thought that Xia Country would only be able to run as a runner-up in this competition involving the second and third generations. I am relieved to see that you also have the confidence to participate in it."

"Come on, try your best to connect the five levels. If you succeed, I will give you the Kunpeng Feather directly without waiting for the Xingyue Mission to be completed."

“Ah???” Lu Ran heard it and said, “Really?”

"Then is it still fake?"

"It's just a league match!!! I promise to kill as many people as I can!!!"
