The King of Beast Trainers
Chapter 408 - 241 Update of Infinite City: The Battle of the World_1

Chapter 408: Chapter 241 Update of Infinite City: The Battle of the World_1

"What the hell is this?"

The sudden update to Infinite City almost made Zhu Kaixin spit out his Sprite.

"I didn’t hear wrong, did I?"

"Infinite City is holding a world-class competition to pick the top ten Beast Trainers of Blue Star?"

"You heard right," Lin Nian frowned, "Moreover, these ten people will represent Blue Star and go to Star-Moon Continent to compete in Beast Battles with the representatives from Star-Moon Continent..."

"What does Infinite City mean by ’Star-Moon Continent’?"

"Is it projecting some historical stage of Star-Moon Continent? Is it choosing a Beast-Taming Team from a certain era to duel with the top ten of Blue Star?"

Gu Qingyi, Shi Zhen, and the others looked at each other, clearly caught off guard by this update from Infinite City.

"Updating at this time..."

"Looks like we all guessed wrong."

Manager Ying was also surprised, "It’s not updating with new facilities or remodeling the real world."

"World battle... That’s kind of shocking."

"And the reward is even management rights in Infinite City. Calling it a Legendary Level reward wouldn’t be too far-fetched, would it?"

"Indeed, it’s exaggerated." Gu Qingyi said, "With an entity like Infinite City, having management rights, even if only partial, would bring astonishing benefits, right?"

"The benefits are huge, but the punishment for defeat is also severe," Shi Zhen pondered, "Downgrading Infinite City’s version, how far will it regress? Could the Legendary Secret Realm, Evolutionary Secret Realm vanish directly? Could the Divine Pet List disappear? Could those teleportation gates between cities vanish? If that happens, the resource output of Infinite City will be severely limited..."

"Judging by the reward, the difficulty of this World Battle won’t be low, and there’s definitely a risk of losing."

"No matter the era on Star-Moon Continent, the development level of their Beast Training civilization isn’t something Blue Star can match; even in the most chaotic eras, there are more than a dozen Legendary Beast Trainers."

"There are even eras with epic legends."

Level 7 Beast Trainers can be called Legendary Beast Trainers.

And an epic legend refers to a Level 8 Legendary Beast Trainer, not limited to the current era, but someone who has made a name for themselves throughout history.

Nobody knows how strong the Star-Moon Continent team mentioned by Infinite City is.

But currently, the strongest on Blue Star is only Level 5, with Pet Beasts of Level 60.

Battling a Level 7 Legendary Beast Trainer who has contracted with beasts over Level 70, there would be no chance of resistance.

If facing an epic-level Beast Trainer, then the outcome would be even more disastrous.

The level of Beast Training between the two worlds isn’t comparable at all.

But luckily, this spot as a representative has to be contested over a year, and in this year, the power of Blue Star’s Beast Training could still improve.

And Infinite City wouldn’t be so ruthless, choosing several Legendary Beast Trainers to battle Blue Star, would it?

"Maybe it will be a battle against projections of Beast Trainers from a certain era."

"But there is another possibility..."

"I suddenly have a premonition that Star-Moon Continent might not be an ancient version of Blue Star, but a real, existing alternate world. After all, besides Star-Moon Continent, there are many other worlds," Manager Ying said:

"Is it possible that the representation team Blue Star will face is from the ’modern Beast Training civilization’ of Star-Moon Continent?"

"They are real Beast Trainers existing right now, somewhere."

As for why the Divine Deer of Star-Moon Continent can appear on Blue Star.

This is even easier to explain, these alternate worlds might be related to each other, and there could be some kind of spatial passage between them.

Just like how reality is connected to the Reality Secret Realm.

"Hmm."

At that moment, Lu Ran was immediately captivated by this topic and said:

"What do you think, if there really are alternate worlds, could Infinite City be a massive facility stretching across multiple worlds?"

"Not only Blue Star has Beast Trainers selected by Infinite City, but other worlds as well."

"We can go to the history of other worlds for training, and they can also come to the ancient times of Blue Star. The travel is mutual."

"This... this idea is quite novel." Everyone unanimously turned their gaze towards Lu Ran.

We have to admit, this speculation once again overthrew everyone’s previous assumptions about world history.

"Speaking of which, not only can we get super rewards for winning the World Battle, but even being selected as one of the ten representatives will bring special rewards," Zhu Kaixin said: "What do you think this reward will be? At the very least, it’s got to be an epic-level resource for every person, right?"

"After all, we’re talking about the prestige of the world’s top ten!"

"Why think so much?" Lin Nian glanced at him.

"You can’t even make it into the top ten of Xia Country, and you’re thinking about the global top ten?"

Zhu Kaixin: ???

"What’s it to you? There’s a year left, I can improve too, all right?"

Lin Nian’s words hit Zhu Kaixin where it hurt, and it sobered up the others too.

Within Xia Country, probably only the Senior Chairman could be said with certainty to be in the world’s top ten.

Lin Nian might have a shot as well.

The others, even the Dragon Tamer Gu Qingyi, didn’t have much hope.

After half a day of analysis, they all realized this update had nothing to do with them.

It was reserved for the truly top-tier few.

"Little brother, what are you pondering over?" At this point, after Lin Nian spoke and Lu Ran began to think deeply, Zhu Kaixin asked:

"Speaking of which, what’s up with your Husky?"

"How did it learn Domain skills at only Level 30, that’s freaking outrageous!!!"

Manager Ying raised her head: "Mind your language."

"Besides, according to my ’Doctorate in Canine Studies’ research experience, this guy is probably thinking about how to knock down the First Generation and squeeze into the world’s top ten, representing Blue Star to battle against Star-Moon Continent, within a year."

Lu Ran: ?

Lu Ran also raised his head and looked towards Manager Ying.

"Damn, how did you guess that," Lu Ran was astonished, saying, "Was what I was thinking really written all over my face?"

Everyone: "..."

Honestly, even Zhu Kaixin, Shi Zhen, Gu Qingyi, and others felt that it was extremely difficult to make it into the top ten of the world.

Lu Ran, a Fourth Generation, was actually considering making it into the Blue Star representative team???

Indeed.

All of Lu Ran’s pet beasts had very high species levels.

But, their growth levels were still too low.

Once the First Generations had all completed their second stage of evolution, Lu Ran’s species level advantage wouldn’t be all that great.

With only a year left, it was unlikely that Lu Ran’s pet beasts would be able to evolve to the second stage.

So, trying to get into the world representative team as a Fourth Generation probably wouldn’t be easy.

"Dreams are always necessary..."

Lu Ran cleared his throat and said, "It’s very simple for my Husky to understand domains."

"Because of the rewards from the Overlord Divine Pet List."

"The reward from the Overlord Divine Pet List is an enhancement card that can strengthen rare resources to World’s Rare level; to allow my Husky to learn domains, I’ve enhanced two World’s Rare resources that boost comprehension for him to use."

"You really dare to gamble," Shi Zhen discovered that Lu Ran was truly willing to invest heavily to train his pet beasts.

However, in truth, the fact that Mr. Husky could use domains so proficiently was largely thanks to the Winter Sword Spirit; if it weren’t for the linear improvement in Mr. Husky’s understanding of the Space Attribute during possession by the Winter Sword Spirit, relying on just two World’s Rare resources might still have been insufficient!

After explaining, Lu Ran fell into thought once again.

Honestly, it wasn’t necessarily impossible for him to compete with the First Generation.

Keep in mind, Mr. Husky’s limit could be Semi-Legend.

So what if the First Generation Beastmasters entered the Overlord Era by then?

He and Mr. Husky were already one foot into the Legendary Era.

And this was only with the Deer Horn of God.

If during this period, Lu Ran could find a resource of higher quality than the Deer Horn of God, representing slaughter, then under Mr. Husky’s sword transformation, his power could become even more terrifying.

Lu Ran was genuinely interested in this update, not for the top ten rewards, not for the battle, not for understanding other worlds, but for the management rights of Infinite City!

This Infinite City, no matter how one looked at it, was a universe-level creation treasure; if he could obtain some kind of control over such a universe treasure, just thinking about it was exhilarating. After this wave, he could just lie flat and retire.

......

Infinite City’s third update!

Ten minutes ago, the outside world was still discussing the Evolutionary Secret Realm and Lu Ran.

Then, in an instant, with the changes in Infinite City, new news content completely took over.

Compared to such a major event as Infinite City’s update, the Evolutionary Secret Realm seemed less important.

International Beast Training Forum.

[Holy shit, the Battle of Worlds? Selecting the ten strongest Beastmasters from Blue Star to represent us in battle? How thrilling is this?]

[Finally, a large-scale beastmaster competition that can cover the whole world, we can finally find out who the world’s strongest beastmaster is.]

[It’s not fair, it’s not fair, this way the First and Second Generations have too much of an advantage, leaving no chance for the Fourth Generation to perform.]

[Why would the Fourth Generation need chances? The first three generations of beastmasters stomped through so many pitfalls for you, the experience they gathered helped you avoid so many detours, aren’t you satisfied?]

[Have you ever played a game? This kind of event, most likely after it’s held this time, will be held again; a version for each generation’s gods. The Fourth Generation may not have a chance now, but that doesn’t mean they won’t in the future.]

Online, with the introduction of the Battle of Worlds theme, the community exploded in buzz.

The outside world also began to speculate about the Star-Moon Continent team that the Blue Star representatives would be facing; whether it would be projections or something else.

And at this moment, Lu Ran, whose limelight was directly overshadowed by the third update of Infinite City, had already returned to Green Sea.

He lay leisurely on the couch, also browsing various forums, and reading through news related to the "Battle of Worlds".

"One year’s time..."

"I’m currently at Level 2, and completing the Level 2 Breakthrough Secret Realm will take one month."

"After becoming a Level 3 Beast Trainer, the level cap for pet beasts will reach Level 40."

"Although the leveling speed from Level 30 to 40 is very slow, if you’re willing to spend on World’s Rare resources, it can still be quite fast."

"During the stage from Level 30 to 40, it’s not as bad as when you’re over Level 50, where it’s hard to level up quickly even with World’s Rare resources."

"So, if I push myself, becoming a Level 4 Beastmaster in a short time shouldn’t be an issue."

"But, catching up to the First Generation’s level progress within a year is certainly not easy; by then, most of the First Generation will probably already be Level 6 Beastmasters."

"I feel like at that time, I’ll at most be Level 5."

Lu Ran took a deep breath, after calculating for a while, he still felt it was hard to catch up with the First Generation in terms of his own level.

If he wanted to defeat the First Generation and secure one of those ten spots to become one of Blue Star’s top ten, he probably would only be able to rely on special cultivation methods to give his pet beasts the ability to fight above their level.

In any case, if he wanted a part of the management rights of Infinite City, he had to seize the time to level up.

Especially the Level 2 Breakthrough Secret Realm; it’d be best to enter it in the coming days to save time.

But this would mean putting his pet beasts through hardship again.

Lu Ran sighed, went into the yard, and summoned all of his pet beasts; Mr. Husky, King of Sudden Death, Dark Crow, looking more domineering and fierce than ever. Lu Ran looked at them, and before he even spoke, the Dark Crow said, "Caw!!! Oh King, are we going to have an internal battle now????"

Lu Ran glanced at it and said, "No hurry, let me first tell you that I’m actually not a fan of internal strife, I prefer a leisurely life, but to have that kind of life, you need to be extremely strong first. Only with such strength can you support a comfortable daily life."

"Right now, there’s a rare opportunity before us, an important competition in a year’s time. As long as you guys can crush the opponents, we could win an amazing reward, and we’d be set for life!"

"So for the next year, how about some hard special training for you guys? Rest a little less. Once we win the competition in a year and have the management rights to Infinite City, we’ll be completely liberated! The good times will come!"
