171: Chapter 171 The Pinnacle Tournament of the Beast Taming World

Looking at these easy-to-understand online aliases, Chen Yi also felt quite strange.

Wasn't it said that picking an online alias was to hide one's identity?

Why would these people deliberately expose themselves?

Luo Shiyin seemed to notice Chen Yi's confusion, and with a light chuckle, she explained, "The Sequence Competition doesn't have ranking rewards; its only use is so that everyone can see you! Therefore, people naturally choose to expose their identities to show off their strength!"

Chen Yi rested his chin on one hand and said thoughtfully, "I see—it's essentially equivalent to an advertising slot, right?"

Luo Shiyin nodded. "Exactly! Otherwise, why would so many people want to rush a leaderboard that has no rewards?"

"Moreover, this leaderboard can also be seen on the official website of the Yanjing Beast Tamer Association; you don't necessarily have to come to Yanjing."

"Think about it, if a high-level bloodline spirit beast accidentally awakens in a small city and there are no suitable candidates around, wouldn't the first thing they do be to go online and look for some powerful Beast Tamers? This is a very good screening list!"

"When those genius Beast Tamers can't find suitable candidates, they put up easily identifiable aliases to get in touch with high-level bloodline girls from all over the country and see if they can schedule a contract or something!"

"Of course, another reason is that these people truly enjoy competing with each other! Having this ranking also makes it convenient for those who are competitive to train themselves!"

"I see!"

Chen Yi nodded slightly, finally understanding the reason for all this.

However, for Chen Yi, all of this was irrelevant.

His purpose for participating in the Sequence Competition was simple: just to play around and, in the process, train The girls' combat abilities.

Whether it was for advertising or not didn't matter at all!

After all, to him, the surface bloodline level didn't explain anything at all!

He still had to rely on himself to dig out those girls with hidden bloodlines!

Without any hesitation, Chen Yi immediately chose the option to start matching.

[Matching with an opponent of similar strength—]

[Match successful!]

Surprisingly, as soon as Chen Yi clicked match, the notification of a successful match arrived immediately.

In the next second, a powerful teleportation force surged.

Chen Yi and his group's vision blurred, and they appeared on a vast, boundless prairie.

The girls were not far behind him, seemingly separated by a transparent barrier.

They could see what was happening on the prairie and communicate normally, but they couldn't walk out.

At the same time, about a hundred meters ahead, a human phantom appeared.

This phantom emitted a mercury-colored light all over its body, looking like a mercury man from a sci-fi movie, making it impossible to distinguish his true appearance.

[You have thirty seconds of preparation time. Please choose your combat spirit beast!]

[Only one spirit beast can be chosen for battle at a time. Successfully defeating the opponent's Beast Tamer will be considered a victory!]

[You can change combat spirit beasts at any time during the battle, but there will be a three-second vacuum period. Please be aware!]

Hearing this, Chen Yi finally understood the gameplay of this Sequence Competition.

Essentially, it was similar to a Pokémon game, where Contracted Spirit Beasts engage in one-on-one combat.

Except that you couldn't see who the opponent was, and the victory conditions included directly killing the opponent's Beast Tamer in addition to defeating all their spirit beasts.

Such rules undoubtedly increased the variables and excitement of the battle.

At the same time, since the opponent's appearance and alias were hidden, it could prevent situations where pressure was applied through family connections or where points were bought and sold.

If that's the case, Beast Tamers with combat-type talents would be like fish in water here!

The girls naturally heard these prompts as well and began to volunteer one after another.

"Little Brother Chen Yi, I'll take the lead!"

"Me too! I want to help Brother Chen Yi secure the first victory!"

"Brother Chen Yi, let me do it~ I want to test the results of my cultivation during this period!"

Looking at the exceptionally enthusiastic girls, Chen Yi waved his hand. "Hold on for a moment. Let the newcomer test the waters first. There will be plenty of chances for you to show off later! Xiao Yu, you take the first battle. Is that okay?"

"No problem! I also want to see my current power!"

As Chu Feiyu finished speaking,

She was instantly teleported outside the barrier and stood beside Chen Yi.

On the other side, the mercury person also chose their Contracted Spirit Beast, but it was also a mercury figure. One could barely tell it was female from the figure—though that was completely redundant!

[Battle start!]

As the AI prompt sounded, that mercury spirit beast instantly transformed into its Spirit Beast Form.

What appeared before everyone was actually a spirit beast that looked like a flying eagle.

Without almost any hesitation, the flying eagle spirit beast was like a silver lightning bolt, diving straight toward Chu Feiyu to kill her.

At the same time, the mercury Beast Tamer also quickly extended their right hand, making a pistol gesture.

A spiritual power arrow condensed in their hand and was shot toward Chen Yi!

A two-pronged attack, leaving Chen Yi no room to resist!

"Whoa, this person looks like a veteran!"

"So what if they're a veteran? They're definitely no match for me!"

Chu Feiyu didn't care and gave a proud snort.

Immediately after, she quickly switched to her Spirit Beast Form.

A wave of scorching heat instantly swept out from her body, shattering the spiritual power arrow on the spot and causing it to dissipate into countless spiritual fragments in the air.

If one could see the mercury man's expression right now, it would surely be one of utter astonishment.

What on earth is this?

"Qiang-qiang—"

Chu Feiyu let out a long cry.

The flames on her wings suddenly condensed into shape, forming a crimson fire that roared forward with unstoppable momentum.

Phoenix Flame!

The flying eagle spirit beast couldn't dodge in time and was instantly enveloped by the crimson flames, which burned it to nothingness!

And the flame's momentum didn't decrease; after annihilating the flying eagle spirit beast, it shot straight toward the mercury person.

The mercury person didn't expect Chu Feiyu to be so powerful and hurriedly used a defensive skill. A layer of spiritual power shield instantly appeared in front of him, attempting to stop the flame's invasion.

At the same time, they planned to send out their next Contracted Spirit Beast.

However, a shield of this level could not block Chu Feiyu's flames at all.

In less than a second,

"Crack—"

A crisp sound rang out.

The crimson flames instantly swallowed the mercury person, submerging him in an endless sea of fire.

[Successfully defeated opponent—I Want to Pick Up Beauties!]

[Battle over, congratulations on your victory!]

[Ladder Points +20!]

[Current Ladder Points: 1020!]

[Current Ranking: 359985]
