Gao Cheng gave a wry smile, saying, “The advantages of the Mechanical Engineering Department are indeed considerable, yet there aren’t many like him, right?”

Han Wei said, “Normal for the future heir of the Xia’s Group. He doesn’t lack money. He’s not like other Mechanical Beast Masters who have to scrape and save.”

“Although the Mechanical Beast Masters upgrade fast, the consumption is indeed equally huge. Typically, an average family can’t afford it.”

Gao Cheng nodded, and Bai Qi’s figure popped up in his mind.

He had not seen him since the trials began. With the abnormal speed of Little Skeleton, I wondered if he could make it into the top twenty.

“The runes on the fifth floor lit up!”

A startled exclamation drew everyone’s attention. The runes at the fifth level, initially flickering, had stabilized, and the runes on the sixth level had begun to flicker.

“That guy Xia Xuan has indeed passed the fifth floor, I wonder if he can pass the sixth floor.”

Han Wei glanced at the sixth floor of the Lamentation Tower, a flash of fighting spirit in his eyes.

Contracted his first beast just a year ago, yet his strength had already surpassed mine. Should I call him a genius, or just say he was overprivileged.” “Achoo! Um, I think I’m late?”

!!..

As everyone’s attention was focused on the Lamentation Tower, Bai Qi finally arrived late, though his condition seemed a bit off. He occasionally sniffed hard, clearly having caught a cold.

Gao Cheng noticed Bai Qi and immediately ran over to him, saying, “Bai Qi, what’s wrong with you?”

Bai Qi rubbed his nose and said, “It’s nothing, I just got a bit cold these days and caught a slight cold.”

He had been practicing skills with Alpha over these days. Despite their precautions, he still got it.

“You got chilled?”

Gao Cheng looked at the scorching sun overhead, unsurprisingly at a loss for words, saying, “Did you also come to challenge the Lamentation Tower?”

Bai Qi nodded and said, “I recall I’m ranked… Ah, yeah, 19.1 almost missed the chance.”

To avoid drawing unnecessary attention, Qin Jiang had arranged Bai Qi to be ranked later. Other people stopped paying much attention to him after they heard his rank.

Even those in the top few ranks hadn’t passed, so what could a mere 19th place do?

“It’s pretty good to be in the top 20, but I suggest you get psychologically prepared.”

Gao Cheng pointed to the Lamentation Tower, saying, “Although this Secret Realm Tower is open to us novice Beast Masters, the difficulty is not low. You’d better be more cautious.”

Gao Cheng patiently explained the conditions of the first four levels of the Tower of the Undead to Bai Qi, saying, “That’s all I know, I hope it can help you a bit.”

“Thanks a lot, Brother Gao.”

Bai Qi asked, “By the way, Brother Gao, what was your reward for the fourth floor?”

He had obtained the Ice Attribute skill for Alpha with just a piece of Cold Spirit Iron, if he could get a few more, he could surely enhance quite a bit more.

After all, Gao Cheng’s beast was a Fire Armor Scorpion, which didn’t match the attribute of the Cold Spirit Iron. He should be able to sell it to him if he negotiated.

“Three high-stage Soul Stones, I passed relatively slowly and didn’t get the bonus for being the first one.”

Gao Cheng scratched his head, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Of all the people who came here to challenge the tower, he was the oldest, but his performance was not the best. It was indeed somewhat embarrassing to say it out loud.

“Every floor has a first-passage bonus?”

Bai Qi found a new discovery, immediately grabbed Gao Cheng, and asked, “Are you sure there’s one on every floor?”

“Well, that’s what the instructor said. But the bonus for the first three floors was taken by the Beast Control Army, so only the last few floors remain.”

Gao Cheng nodded, glanced at the flickering runes on the sixth floor, saying, “But assuming there are no surprises, it should all be taken by Xia Xuan, right?” “Xia Xuan?”

Bai Qi remembered the identity of Xia Xuan quickly.

The genius freshman of Star Mechanics Academy, a double major student in Beast Control Battle and Weapon Mastery. He was definitely regarded as a popular figure.

However, Bai Qi’s attention was not on Xia Xuan right now, but on the already lit runes on the fifth floor.

Old Qin tricked me!

Why didn’t he say clearly that every floor has a first-passage bonus!

It was all right for the first three floors since they were not open at that time.

But if he knew that every one of the following floors had a first-passage bonus, how could he be leisurely staying at home till now!

So now, someone had stolen a floor of the tower directly, and he had suffered a big loss!

Looking at the increasingly solid light of the sixth floor’s runes, Bai Qi immediately lost the mood to wander around. He directly ignored Lu Yuan, who wanted to greet him, and hurriedly rushed into the Lamentation Tower.

This guy, he’s still rushing about.

Lu Yuan, who had been ignored, felt somewhat awkward. Fortunately, no one here noticed him, so Lu Yuan pretended as if nothing had happened.

“Gao Cheng, do you know that guy?”

Han Wei said, “Why don’t I seem to remember him?”

Gao Cheng said, “He’s a student of Weapon Mastery, met him during a mission once, um, his strength is pretty good.”

“I see.”

Upon learning he was a student of Weapon Mastery, Han Wei lost interest and found a place to sit down nearby.

The students of Weapon Mastery were no different from the traditional breeders of Beast Control. It was already quite impressive for them to squeeze into the top twenty in the trials.

However, to make him pay serious attention, it was still lacking a bit of interest.

The Lamentation Tower.

As soon as Bai Qi entered the tower, he cruised through the first three floors swiftly and directly.

Since he had already cleared them, Bai Qi didn’t get any rewards when he cleared them again, so he didn’t have much expectation for the fourth floor either. With Alpha’s full-out effort, he cleared the fourth floor with astonishing speed as well.

Looking at Alpha, with not even a scratch on his icy armor, Bai Qi hesitated no more and stepped into the fifth floor.

As soon as Alpha made his appearance, ten Ice Ghost Guards emerged one after another, quickly moving towards Alpha, trying to surround him.

“Alpha, try that move.”

Creak, creak.

(Okay, Master.)

Alpha nodded, held his sword with both hands reversed, and thrust it forcefully into the frosty ground beneath.

Ice Age!

As Bai Qi let out a somewhat nerdy roar, the ice flowers quickly spread out from the tip of the sword and soon reached the feet of the Ice Ghost Guards.

And before the Ice Ghost Guards could react, they spread up their bodies and immediately froze all the Ice Ghost Guards.

The Ice Ghost Guards were also of Ice Attribute and began to struggle after a short delay. The ice layer on their bodies soon showed signs of shattering. However, it was already too late.

While controlling the Ice Ghost Guards, Alpha began to move. The frozen ground did not affect Alpha’s movements. The speed was even slightly faster, and all Ice Ghost Guards were beheaded within an instant.

Kill one in ten steps, without leaving any track after a thousand miles.

That must refer to this situation.

Wow, so cool!
