Chapter 677: Chapter 678 Competition_1

Qi Chen said with a bit of a chuckle,

"They think we won by using external forces, that if it weren’t for the absence of those well-founded major families in Maomu City, we would have had no chance at all. So..."

Agunas flicked its tail and looked speechlessly at the schedule in Feng Yuan’s hands, which seemed to have quite a few traps designed for them. They probably knew that if the competition proceeded according to the Maomu City Beast Tamer competition, they wouldn’t stand a chance. But it didn’t know what to say about such blatant targeting.

Under these rules, even winning didn’t guarantee a good outcome, let alone...

"Allowing unlimited external assistance during team matches?"

Agunas didn’t understand what was going through their heads. Were they idiots? They dared to make such a rule without even investigating Feng Yuan’s intelligence.

"Probably some minor family, or they have some special ideas. Fools are the same in every era."

Feng Yuan yawned and said uninterestingly, while Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"You’re not planning to call over all the Divine Beasts you know when the time comes, are you?"

Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Chen and said,

"Why not? They’re the ones who’ve offered themselves."

Qi Chen didn’t know what to say, while Agunas flipped through the book in its hands and said,

"They probably think they can borrow Legendary Level or even Sacred Beast Level Spirit Beasts from their familial backgrounds, so they’re so brazen. But what’s the point of winning with such an unfair rule from the start?"

"Who knows?"

Feng Yuan shrugged nonchalantly, since they allowed external assistance, he didn’t bother about it too much. If necessary, he would just drag over Lorraine Tower and others for a clean sweep. He was sure those people were not of high status and didn’t understand some situations well; otherwise, such a self-destructive schedule wouldn’t have been set.

Although the upper echelons of Great Xia didn’t know how many Divine Beasts Feng Yuan could summon, the known ones were already terrifying enough. The twin gods of space and time alone were enough to eliminate most of the competitors, or rather, even Great Xia couldn’t guarantee that they could stand against the twin gods with full firepower, and that didn’t even include the other various strange Divine Beasts that had unclear relationships with Feng Yuan.

"Speaking of which, are you going back to the past after school starts?"

Qi Chen asked, a bit worried about the busy work Feng Yuan had recently, knowing that with Feng Yuan here, they would win easily, but if he was absent, the situation would be just the opposite.

"I’ll go back, but I might not stay there for long. Besides, don’t worry; I’ll talk to Lorraine Tower and the others and ask them to help out during the match."

"After all, it’s not a rule that only Divine Pact Makers can have Divine Beasts participate in battle, right?"

"Apart from Lorraine Tower and its group... let me think, Delong Tower might be available. Oh, what’s the situation with Odinis now?"

After thinking it over, Agunas closed the book in its claws and said,

"Same as usual. Although the enemy can’t break through our defenses, it’s still very difficult to reclaim our territory completely. Looks like it’ll be a standoff for quite some time."

"But it shouldn’t be a problem for Lorraine Tower and the others to spare a bit of time to help out with a competition. The Starry Sky Battlefield is pretty much won already."

Hearing Agunas’s words, Feng Yuan pinched his chin and said,

"I see..."

"So, Lorraine Tower, Delong Tower, then Nagna, and Ernis too – that should be enough, right? How about you also help out?"

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly and said,

"Are you really not planning to give them a way out?"

Imagining the scenario, Qi Chen’s mouth twitched slightly. The powerful Spirit Beasts brought by the competitors thought they could win against them, only to find out that almost all their opponents were high-ranking Divine Beasts... The scene would surely be spectacular...

One has to remember that even in the Divine Land and Omeilia’s regional Beast Taming competitions, there were no records of high-ranking Divine Beasts participating. In their small, private competition, to be up against so many high-ranking Divine Beasts, they were bound to regret it – after all, it wouldn’t reflect well on them.

And about persuading Feng Yuan not to do so? Qi Chen was no saint. The other party had started the trouble, and they deserved what Feng Yuan had in store for them.

"Do you need to rest first?"

Qi Chen put down his phone and glanced at Feng Yuan, asking with puzzlement. Feng Yuan looked back, unclearly saying,

"No need, what’s up?"

"Yanlan said she’d like to treat you to something to eat."

"Eh?"

"Is this hotpot restaurant new?"

Feng Yuan curiously looked around. Although each seating was only separated by a wall of green plants with quite a gap above them, he could feel that each seat actually had a soundproof Barrier, and the voices of conversation wouldn’t spread out at all.

"I think you might like it."

Dou Yanlan said with a slight smile. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan sneakily glanced at Qi Chen, feeling that something was off. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with annoyance and said,

"Don’t overthink it. Last time we got some discount coupons for this place, and I thought you might come back before registration, so I saved them."

"So that’s how it is~"

Qi Chen glanced at Xiao Ji sitting on the table and said,

"Speaking of which, it should be about time for it to evolve, right?"

"Almost, to be honest, I’m really curious about what form it will evolve into~"

Feng Yuan said happily as he stroked Xiao Ji’s head, while Dou Yanlan looked at Xiao Ji and said,

"I can’t find any records about its Legendary Level form."

"A brand new evolutionary form?"

Qi Chen eyed Xiao Ji, who was happily nibbling on snacks on the table. Its peculiar attributes had long made him suspect something. Feng Yuan nodded and replied,

"That should be the case, but it’s hard to say."

Under the influence of Divine Beasts’ power, not even Feng Yuan was clear on what Xiao Ji would evolve into. Besides, a Divine Beast at the Sacred Beast Level wasn’t necessarily the only one of its kind except during its Legendary Level.

Especially for a Divine Beast like Xiao Ji, which had a rather special origin.

"How’s the competition coming along?"

Dou Yanlan turned to Qi Chen. She was quite concerned about that competition, but she felt that the rules allowing external help without restriction weren’t necessarily to their advantage.

Qi Chen gave an awkward smile and said,

"He plans to bring Lorraine Tower and the others to help."

"I see, the team battle is as good as won."

Dou Yanlan said calmly. She wasn’t surprised by this; she knew about Feng Yuan’s good relationship with the Twin Gods of Time and Space. As long as they could get them on board, winning wouldn’t be difficult. After thinking for a while, Dou Yanlan looked at Qi Chen and said,

"Even though he’s helping, we can’t become too reliant on him."

"Special training, huh..."

Qi Chen understood Dou Yanlan’s intention. The three of them chatted while enjoying the delicious hot pot. As they left the restaurant, Feng Yuan took out two jade carvings and handed them to Dou Yanlan, saying,

"These are for you."

"Thank you."

Dou Yanlan said, somewhat touched. She knew what Feng Yuan had done. Her relationship with Feng Yuan wasn’t as close as with Qi Chen’s. Feng Yuan smiled proudly and said,

"Zhong Liuyan and the others have theirs too~ I’ll give them theirs when school starts again~"

"This... Could this be the legendary Nanyu Spirit Jade?"

Shortly after taking it, Dou Yanlan noticed something unusual. Hearing her words, Feng Yuan said in surprise,

"How did you know?"

"Just a guess. After all, you got the high-speed corridor made ahead of time, and the name of Nanyu Kingdom has changed too, which means you must have gone to those places before. But..."

Although Dou Yanlan was curious why Feng Yuan would go there and stir things up, it wasn’t easy to ask about such matters directly. With a smile, Feng Yuan said,

"How about we find a quiet place and I’ll tell you about what happened? Those are truths buried in history~"

"Would that be okay?"

Dou Yanlan was somewhat enticed. Such stories might not mean much for the growth in strength, but past tales were still very attractive to her.

"Of course~"

"Go to the Great Library?"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s suggestion, Agunas, who was flipping through a book, said,

"You really like that place."

"Hehe~"

"The Great Library, huh? I do need to look up some information."

Dou Yanlan nodded in agreement. As it happened, the Great Library wasn’t far from where they were, so the group decided to walk there.

"I wonder how Big Cat is doing now."

Looking at the bustling streets around him, Feng Yuan muttered to himself. He hadn’t seen Big Cat since he returned and found himself missing it.
