Chapter 362: Chapter 208 Super Bodyguard Lineup_1

"No, Guardian Deity..."

"I have no issue with battling, but battling now is actually a bit unfair."

"Though my panda is also level 30, it hasn’t undergone any evolution yet."

"But Lu Ran’s pet beast has already evolved."

It was clear that Youxiong Anlin still didn’t want to fight Lu Ran.

"Can we wait until my pet beast evolves before fighting?"

His analysis was logical and couldn’t be faulted.

The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian looked at him and said, "Isn’t it impressive if the one that hasn’t evolved beats the one that has?"

The crowd fell silent: "..."

They felt like the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian and Youxiong Anlin were a pair of comedians.

Neither seemed particularly bright.

"But his pet beast is a level 30 Middle-Level Overlord, just one Species Level below you, Guardian Deity... That’s a tough gap to bridge," Youxiong Anlin nearly cried.

A cross-level challenge should at least abide by some basic principles.

A boss from the same level Legendary Secret Realm would have been instantly defeated by that brute of a dragon.

"What?"

The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian was shocked and looked at Lu Ran with an incredulous gaze.

"You have an Overlord Species Beast Pet?"

This was something the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian had not expected.

Lu Ran smiled, "Right, Youxiong fellow student is correct, evolved against unevolved is indeed somewhat unfair. Why not wait for his pet beast to evolve before discussing it."

Lu Ran held no grudges against Youxiong Anlin and didn’t have the heart to let him miss this opportunity.

Otherwise, his words just then would have turned into, "No worries, I also have an unevolved pet beast, I’ll let my Husky fight with you."

"What do you think, Guardian Deity?" Youxiong Anlin clung to this chance like a lifeline.

"Ying." The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian fell into thought, finding the situation preposterous. Could it be that after a good sleep, the future young Beast Trainers had become so powerful?

To think he was only level two and already had an Overlord Species beast under contract?

In its savage era, there had been no one like that.

Although the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian had confidence in Youxiong Anlin, at this moment, it hesitated.

After a while, it shook its head.

Forget it, forget it.

Lu Ran was right. It would wait for its clan’s younger generation, the Dark Light Twin System panda, to undergo its first evolution before having a fair fight.

"Then let’s do as you say," the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian agreed.

Upon hearing this, Youxiong Anlin sighed in relief. Damn, that was close.

Though not numerous, the Youxiong Family was not small either; being noticed by the Guardian God was fortunate. Clearly, Youxiong Anlin didn’t want to miss this chance.

If someone else were offering guidance, he really would have had no place to cry.

He still hoped to cling to the Guardian God’s coattails and conquer the Legendary Secret Realm on his own.

"Good brother," Youxiong Anlin thought, casting a grateful look at Lu Ran, thankful for the great one’s mercy. After my first evolution, we will decide the winner!

"Giant Panda! Giant Panda!"

At this moment, Manager Ying couldn’t help but butt in, saying, "You must have relied on that ’Super Sleep’ special ability to sleep from ancient times until now, right?"

In ancient times, the Spiritual Energy waned, but not every creature mastered a "hibernation"-like ability.

Those that hadn’t grasped it had certainly perished.

Manager Ying guessed that the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian must have mastered a skill similar to the "Super Sleep Attribute" that exploded out of the Trial Secret Realm, which allowed it to maintain a low expenditure by pausing life activities during sleep.

Otherwise, there’s no way it would be so lively now.

"Yes..." The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian looked towards Manager Ying and said, "Hm? You must be the ancient cat that the Youxiong Family mentioned."

Being both ancient creatures, the Youxiong Family naturally shared information about Manager Ying with the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian.

The Guardian was very curious about this cat.

"It’s me." Manager Ying coolly looked at the giant panda and said, "Youxiong Family’s Guardian God, do you have any treasures brought from ancient times? My main body is still asleep and urgently needs a massive amount of energy resources."

"I’ll trade you with modern resources."

"Nothing!" The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian felt this cat was no good beast, saying, "The extraordinary resources of ancient times have long decayed under the revival of Spiritual Energy, unless it’s something very advanced, but how could I possibly have that..."

"Figured as much." Manager Ying showed a look of disappointment upon hearing the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian’s words.

Meanwhile, Lu Ran, listening to the side, was also taken aback, damn, this Iron-Eating Beast was poor?

He was hoping to trade for some resources... but there was nothing?

But thinking about it made sense, it currently even needed the Youxiong Family’s help to find food... it was honestly worse off than Manager Ying.

Lu Ran felt like he’d come for nothing.

Wait, not exactly for nothing, at least now he knew about the Reality Secret Realm.

Lu Ran planned to later investigate Lu Family Village to find out where the ancestral land of his village was before. What if the exclusive secret realm of Lu Family Village also existed somewhere on the continent?

The Divine Deer Pendant... could it be the key to the exclusive secret realm of Lu Family Village?

The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian had mentioned that only some particularly impressive extraordinary resources would not decay when the extraordinary powers faded. The Deer Horn of God... seemed to fit the bill.

Since the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian’s "Secret Realm Key" was still usable, then the undecayed extraordinary item passed down through the Lu family from ancient times was probably the Deer Horn of God.

"So, if Star-Moon Continent is indeed the prehistoric era of Blue Star, then, by now, the historical timeline should be fairly clear," stated Gu Qingyi:

In the mythological era, the Four Great Genesis Dragons created the world.

Many years later, the Human Tribe rose on Star-Moon Continent, developing Beast Training abilities.

After the establishment and fall of the Beast Training Empire, there was a period when human civilization might have developed to its peak.

At this point, Star-Moon Continent underwent drastic changes, presumably experiencing the first retreat of Spiritual Energy.

As the extraordinary beings vanished to preserve their lineage, the highly advanced human civilization built Infinite City, awaiting the resurgence of Spiritual Energy to pass on the Beast Training system.

Countless years later.

Spiritual Energy warmed again.

Countless lives evolved once more into the extraordinary.

Manager Ying and Iron-Eating Beast Guardian were beings from this phase.

The first descent of Infinite City selected a group of Ancient Humans to become Beast Trainers.

But before long, Spiritual Energy began to fade again.

And to maintain their strength, a group of powerful extraordinary beings in nature chose to protect human tribes in exchange for the Power of Belief.

This was the so-called Totem Tribe Era.

The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian came into contact with the Youxiong Family during this period and became acquainted with Infinite City and Beast Trainers.

Manager Ying, on the other hand, belonged to those "isolated creatures" that have little to no contact with the outside world, so her awareness of these matters was not very clear.

However, all this still could not stop the general trend.

The extraordinary disappeared again, and Infinite City closed.

Some special ancient creatures, like Manager Ying, Iron-Eating Beast Guardian, and Fishman King, did everything possible to choose hibernation.

Until the present day, there is a second warming trend of Spiritual Energy.

Infinite City re-emerges, choosing Beast Trainers, and the ancient creatures awaken with it...

After Gu Qingyi analyzed the situation, everyone nodded in agreement. Now, the theory that Star-Moon Continent is the prehistoric civilization of Blue Star, in Gu Qingyi’s view, could be confirmed.

After all, the Divine Deer was an affiliate of the Genesis Dragon and had once been the Guardian Deity of Lu Family Village...

If it was not the same world, how could the Divine Deer have come from Star-Moon Continent to Blue Star?

Perhaps, a group of legendary beings led by the Divine Deer successfully hibernated from the era of Star-Moon Continent to the ancient era of Xia Country.

"All right, everyone, this should put your minds at ease," she said.

"The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian has been protecting our Human Tribe since ancient times and is utterly trustworthy."

"Spreading its news can enhance Xia Country’s international influence on one hand, making forces like the Fishman Empire and other Evil Beast factions hesitant to encroach on land. On the other hand, our Youxiong Family truly cannot provide the Guardian with sufficient resources on our own," stated Youxiong Jiyuan.

"ROAR!!!" The Iron-Eating Beast Guardian lazily sat in its chair.

Actually, its choice to become a guardian deity of a Beast Training tribe was a simple one. First, that tribe’s Beast Pets were almost all Iron-Eating Beasts, with a rich experience in breeding and feeding them.

Second, as Spiritual Energy slowly declined, it felt increasingly incapable and sought an "old-age home" to live out the second half of its life in well-looked after comfort.

Although Spiritual Energy has now resurged, the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian has become accustomed to being served and enjoying an all-inclusive lifestyle.

So, it was still very willing to continue as the guardian deity. It had also realized that, with its current strength, it was almost an invincible existence in this era. Moreover, it seems the Iron-Eating Beast Clan had even become a national treasure species of this country, which is quite comfortable.

"Good." Once they understood the situation, Gu Qingyi and the other First Generations also felt at ease.

As Youxiong stated, the joining of the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian is definitely a good thing for Xia Country.

"Then that’s settled. By the way, is your Secret Realm ready for a challenge now?" a petite girl, the Superpower Expert Lin Nian, suddenly asked.

Youxiong Jiyuan looked at her and replied, "Sorry, although the Reality Secret Realm can be challenged indefinitely, it has a cooldown period for activation. It can be opened only one day every seven days, but on the day it is open, there is no limit to the number of people who can enter."

"The time for the next opening has not yet arrived. Once it’s time to open, I will notify you all immediately."

"Forget it, I’m not interested in ’Armorization’ and ’Super Sleep’ anyway. Since everything’s settled, I’m going to leave," Lin Nian waved her hand, about to take her leave when Gu Qingyi caught hold of her.

"Wait a moment," said Gu Qingyi.

Like Lin Nian, the rest of the First Generations present were also not interested in the skills ’Armorization Beast Training Technique’ and ’Super Sleep Attribute.’

Although these two skills seemed decent, especially to newcomers, what they were after were those uniquely powerful attributes.

Even Lu Ran, a fourth generation, was not interested in these two drops.

Therefore, the allure of challenging this Secret Realm wasn’t particularly strong for them; after all, according to Youxiong, they could challenge their tribe’s exclusive Secret Realm, but most resources had to be provided to the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian as food, and they had no interest in serving as its caretakers.

Let tomorrow’s suckers tackle the Secret Realm.

The Secret Realms of Infinite City are already overwhelming enough.

"What’s up?" Lin Nian, grabbed by Gu Qingyi, turned to see her wearing a sweet smile.

"Don’t rush off. Since you’re here, let the Youxiong Family treat us to a dinner before leaving," she suggested.

The three members of the Youxiong Family present: ???

Though she was right to make the offer, shouldn’t we be the ones to say it?

"Also, I have something to discuss with the five of you. Please stay for a moment," Gu Qingyi addressed the few first generations and then turned her gaze to Lu Ran.

Realizing the situation, Lu Ran understood.

Doctor Gu must be planning to take this opportunity with several First Generations present to confront them about the necro system!

After all, if the Dark Crow were to evolve later, the matter of the necro system could no longer be concealed.

At that time, a multitude of international Beast Trainers in the Evolutionary Secret Realm would see Lu Ran evolve a necro system Beast Pet.

Bonding with the undead is, at least for now, not accepted by societal norms, and will undoubtedly cause a huge shock... Lu Ran might become a target, providing nations with a legitimate reason to confront him. It’s very possible that they may trouble him on the spot.

In that scenario, Xia Country would undoubtedly have to send enough bodyguards to accompany Lu Ran to the evolution, and the lineup of six First Generations... is just right!
