“And who’s the second one?”
Xu Ran asked with interest.
“The second one is the White Wolf Girl.” Tian Futao confirmed, “When it comes to the next generation of Beast Masters in Qingzhou City who can compete with Lyu Guang, she is definitely one of them.”
“White Wolf Girl?” Xu Ran noted the title in his mind, “I’m guessing that’s not her real name, right?”
Correct, her real name is Xu Jiujiu. The reason she’s called White Wolf Girl, however, is because the Pet Beast she has a contract with is an Ice attribute Frost Dust Wolf, which has a pure white appearance.”
“Frost Dust Wolf?” Xu Ran, who hadn’t heard of this species, was a bit curious.
‘It’s a transcendent creature of colossal size that roams the icy plains.” Tian Futao gave a brief introduction, “Xu Jiujiu’s Frost Dust Wolf is over five meters in length. It looks quite intimidating.”
“That big?” Xu Ran was somewhat surprised.
The potential costs of cleaning and caring a large Pet Beast instantly crossed his mind.
He needed to find an opportunity to invite this person to his shop for the service.
“That Frost Dust Wolf is far more than just gigantic in size.” Tian Futao smirked, “Do you know why the White Wolf Girl is famous?”
She once left the city with her wolf and returned safely!” His face took on a hint of longing, “It’s said that the Transcendent Beings outside the city are very ferocious, and even Elite Level Beast Masters must form teams to ensure mutual support.”
“Indeed.” Xu Ran became serious.
He had learned about the dangers outside the city, escorted by the Tiger Hunting Squad. And he had a deep appreciation for the courage it took to go out and return safely.
As for the other two thousand-point contestants that Tian Futao didn’t know about…
Other than Xu Ran himself, he could guess the other one.
It should be that girl called Gu Ling, if there are no surprises.
She came from another city, so not many people knew her. Also, her Dark Scale Dragon is Starlight Level in all skills, so it is not much weaker than Ziyun. In this way, the identities of all four thousand-point contestants were clear. “By the way, I haven’t asked yet!” Tian Futao looked at Xu Ran, “How many points did you get in the preliminary round?”
Zhuang He, who had been silently listening to their conversation, suddenly sat up straight, pricked up his ears and pretended casually, leaning a little closer.
“My score?” Xu Ran blinked, skillfully began to dodge the question, “My score was actually…”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Accompanied by the drumming that echoed throughout the venue, the talent auditions were just underway at this moment.
The host rose from the elevator to the center of the venue and waved to the audience.
“Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the talent show stage of the New Beast Master Challenge!”
In response to him was a roar of applause and cheers from the spectators. Seeing Tian Futao and Zhuang He, who were standing by his side, immediately drawn to the host, Xu Ran quietly closed his mouth.
The timing was perfect.
This way, he could interact with them as a regular person.
After the host introduced the rules of the audiition, he left the scene. Then, ten Beast Masters, dressed in the Beast Master Association uniforms, took the’ stage together, summoning their Pet Beasts amidst the crowd’s cheers.
Ten Hexagram Star Arrays were simultaneously flashing, appearing quite spectacular.
The ten beasts that stepped out had different forms, each possessing one of the ten major attributes.
Although they were all at the Transcendent Stage, they were quite impressive to look at.
And their species were common in Qingzhou City, so there wasn’t much need for introduction, as the contestants could identify them one by one.
“It’s started!” Tian Futao took a deep breath, “These ten opponents all look very strong; defeating any of them won’t be easy!”
But with careful observation, you can find some counter relationships.” Zhuang He calmly analyzed from the side, “The organizers arranged for ten Beast Masters of different attributes to appear, so we can choose the attribute that we can best counter.”
Makes sense!” Tian Futao looked at Zhuang He in surprise, “Old Zhuang, you are talking a lot!”
Zhuang He rolled his eyes, then continued, “Not only are there counter relations in attributes, but also in attack modes.”
“Some of these Pet Beasts excel in close combat, some in long-range attacks, some can fly, some can only move on land…”
This can also be a basis for choosing your opponent.”
“By the looks of it, my Fire Pig can choose…” Tian Futao thought for a moment, chose his most suitable opponent, but his face suddenly fell, “Almost forgot, I ’ didn’t pass the initial screening.”
“I’ve already chosen my opponent, but I’ll watch the other participants’ performances first.” Zhuang He crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair.
After a small disturbance, the first volunteer to step forward from the audience had already jumped onto the Battle Stand.
“Xu Ran, you…” Tian Futao turned to look at Xu Ran on the other side who was just about to ask if he had chosen his opponent, but was puzzled when seeing Xu Ran’s actions, “What are you doing?”
“I’m taking notes.” Xu Ran took out a pen and a notebook from his bag with a serious expression, his eyes focused on the contestants getting ready to fight.
“Can’t be…” Tian Futao’s mouth twitched slightly.
Need to keep notes on site about the competitors?
The battle for the first contestant ended quickly.
He bravely chose the opponent he could best counter, but ended up losing after just a few rounds.
These Beast Masters sent by the Beast Master Association were indeed powerful. This made the contestants who were preparing to take the stage right after him hesitate.
Should they… wait and see?
“He’s really inexperienced. I could do better than him.” Tian Futao commented about the first contestant, then looked at Xu Ran who was jotting down notes, his mouth twitched again.
Even such an inexperienced opponent required such serious note-taking?
Brother Xu Ran doesn’t seem to be very skilled?
He initially thought he would ask Xu Ran about his preliminary score later, but now he felt there was no need to.
Xu Ran didn’t notice Tian Futao’s strange looks.
After diligently noting down “Pang Ziyang, Medium Size Pet Beast, Fire Attribute, no suitable skills for Ziyun”, he lifted his head again.
If Xu Ran knew what Tian Futao was thinking, he would probably cry out in injustice.
Competitors? Where were there competitors?
Those were all his dear customers!
Given such a rare opportunity to see a variety of powerful Pet Beasts, of course he had to note down his potential customers, especially those whose skills matched what Ziyun could learn.
Ziyun hadn’t learned new skills for a long time, and each time after washing and cleaning the pets of his customers, seeing Ziyun’s expectant eyes, Xu Ran felt a bit embarrassed.
He didn’t have a chance before, but now he did.
He was going to note down all the Thunder Attribute Pet Beasts appearing today, as they were all his potential targets for taking advantage!
