190: Chapter 190 Yi Chen Returns to the Scene
Time slipped away quietly.
Only three days remained until the highly anticipated Beast Taming Contest officially began.
Geniuses and prominent figures from all corners of the Dragon Kingdom had almost entirely gathered in Yanjing.
Major hotels were already fully booked, and young Beast Tamers with powerful auras, along with Spirit Beast Girls possessing extraordinary bloodline energies, could be seen everywhere on the streets. The air was thick with the excitement and tension of an impending great battle.
It could truly be called a golden age, rarely seen in a century!
On this day, Li Yang arrived at the suite carrying a stack of newly collected information about various contestants.
As he set the materials down, he accidentally heard Chen Yi laughing and chatting with The girls nearby about the matching mechanism of the Sequence Competition and the strength of the AI opponents, mentioning the name "Yi Chen" in passing.
Li Yang was struck as if by lightning, freezing in place.
He widened his eyes, looked at Chen Yi in disbelief, and stuttered, "Chen—Young Master Chen—what you just said—could it be that you—you are that Yi Chen?"
Chen Yi glanced at him and nodded casually, "Yes, what about it? Is it that strange?"
Li Yang gasped, then slapped his own forehead hard, his face flushed with excitement, "I knew it! I should have thought of it sooner! Besides you, who else could be so ridiculously strong! Instantly killing AI! Crushing the leaderboard! So that's how it is! So that's it! Everything makes sense now!"
He was completely thrilled!
With the strength Yi Chen had displayed, let alone the top 100!
It was possible he could even reach the top ten or even the top three!
Was this the rhythm of taking off?
He had truly found a great backer!
Just then, Chen Yi's phone rang. The caller ID was Luo Qinghe, who had just left not long ago.
"Did I disturb you?"
"No, what is it, Grandpa Luo?"
"I just received news that Bai Song has gone to the Sequence Competition to match for battles again! Are you interested in going to see? Maybe—if you're lucky, you can match with him and personally test his strength?"
Hearing this, Chen Yi frowned slightly and fell into thought.
Although he was somewhat confident in Bai Song's strength, he still hoped to verify it personally.
If there was a chance to fight Bai Song, that would naturally be the best!
Moreover, after two and a half weeks of hard work, the strength of The girls had improved significantly, and they had all learned some new skills that sounded incredibly powerful just from their descriptions.
Chen Yi, Lin Mengxue, Luo Shiyin, Su Taotao, and Yan Jiuyue had all successfully broken through to the fourth stage, tenth level, just one step away from the fifth stage, first level. With their current real combat power, they definitely surpassed ordinary sixth-stage spirit beasts!
The Hua sisters, Hua Yuetong and Hua Xingtong, were not to be outdone, both breaking through to the fourth stage, first level. As support characters, they also possessed combat power comparable to ordinary fourth-stage, tenth-level spirit beasts; it was truly impressive!
Although Chu Feiyu only reached the third stage, eighth level, thanks to the strengthening effect of One Heart, One Mind, she could still erupt with combat power around the fifth stage. Coupled with the healing effect of the Phoenix Attribute, she could be considered a proper big BOSS!
With such a lineup, he was just looking for a suitable punching bag to test where their current limits lay!
The suddenly rising Bai Song was the perfect punching bag!
"Sure, I'm idle anyway."
Chen Yi readily agreed, turned to The girls, and said, "Let's have a good fight tonight!"
"Okay!!!"
The girls were filled with fighting spirit, seemingly thinking the same thing as Chen Yi.
Having become stronger, how could they not test their power against someone powerful?
---
With a relaxed and playful mood, Chen Yi, surrounded by The girls, headed towards the Beast Tamer Association in Yanjing.
He was prepared to test just how strong Bai Song really was.
However, things in the world are often just this coincidental.
Just as Chen Yi's group arrived at the Beast Tamer Association and found a training room to start matching for the Beast Taming Contest.
Bai Song and Red Snake happened to walk out of the side VIP passage and came to the waiting hall.
There was no other reason.
Even if Red Snake was strong, and the strengthening effect of One Heart, One Mind was amazing.
Facing AI Beast Tamers and AI spirit beasts whose strength was already approaching the sixth stage, it was naturally impossible to instantly kill and clear them like miscellaneous soldiers.
Moreover, having now entered the top ten, the AI Beast Tamers in this range not only possessed AI spirit beasts, but their own combat capabilities were also very strong.
Even if Bai Song's current strength was comparable, in the eyes of these AI Beast Tamers nearing the sixth stage, he was just like a little novice, easily knocked down.
This resulted in Red Snake only being able to fight two at once, while still having to protect Bai Song, causing a massive increase in energy consumption.
Therefore, after fighting less than ten games, they withdrew from matching.
"Third place? What a pity!"
"If I win two more games, I can reach second place, and if I win a dozen more, the first place will also be mine!"
"But it's not a big problem. The Sequence Competition is ultimately just a small trick. The upcoming Beast Taming Contest is the key!"
In front of the display screen in the hall, Bai Song shrugged helplessly and said pretentiously.
It was as if, to him, first place was just something within reach.
"Look, it's the Young Master of the Bai family!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, he's already at the fifth stage? Breaking through to the fifth stage before the age of 25, how can I, who is only at the third stage, third level, compare?"
"Anyone with a normal brain wouldn't compare themselves to these geniuses from big forces, right? But many people have indeed broken through to the fifth stage recently, as if they had agreed upon it!"
"Yes! Leng Wuhen and Luo Yuqing, Gao Wenyu and Qi Lianmeng, they have all broken through to the fifth stage, first level!"
"I've decided! I'll go back and write a Beast Taming novel. Start by being dumped, then reach the peak of life in one step! I really want to have a dream like that!"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, and the envy in their eyes was about to overflow!
Envy, jealousy, worship, complex—all kinds of gazes fell on Bai Song, making him feel incomparably satisfied.
This was the life he deserved!
Not the scenes where he was humiliated by Chen Yi, schemed against by Lei Han, and heartlessly abandoned by Yun Zhiyao!
Thinking of this, a fierce light flashed in Bai Song's eyes.
His fists were tightly clenched, and the murderous intent on his body surged wildly.
He scared away a young beauty behind him who was planning to come and ask for his contact information.
"Chen Yi, that scoundrel! Lei Han, that brat! And Yun Zhiyao and Chu Feiyu, you two fickle sluts!"
"One day, I will definitely grind you all to dust to avenge today's hatred!"
"Just wait—"
Just then, at the top of the light screen in the waiting hall, an ID that had been silent for several days, yet never ignored by anyone, suddenly lit up without warning!
[Congratulations to Yi Chen for successfully defeating the invincible and winning 25 consecutive victories, entering the 78th place!]
