97: Perfect level spirit forging, first in the division?

“Top 100 in the main competition?” Several people were startled upon hearing this.

They immediately became excited.

“A B-Grade Evolution Method, a B-Grade Skill, plus the value of various resources, it's easily over ten million!”

“Let's go! I'm going back tonight to train twice as hard!”

Several Beast Tamer who had luckily passed were incredibly excited.

Over ten million in resources.

For them, it was already a huge fortune!

“Ten million is far from enough,” Fang Ran thought to himself.

The resources consumed by the Slime's evolution were no less than Xiao Tian's.

But Xiao Tian had the support of the Academy, so Fang Ran only needed to maintain a high ranking.

This Slime was directly eating money out of his pocket!

“What are the rewards for the top 50?” Fang Ran looked at Brother Pao and asked.

“Top 50?” Brother Pao scanned Fang Ran up and down.

Then he continued, “A-Grade Skills, A-Grade Recipes, and enough materials to advance your Beasts to Lord-level!”

“What about the top ten?”

“The top ten, ah, if you can enter the top ten, you can be recommended to the Beastmaster Association and have a chance to become an Apprentice Member. As for the rewards... an A-level exclusive Evolution Method, an S-Grade Recipe, including three Lord-level materials of your choice, and one Transcendent Grade material!”

Everyone fell silent.

This was not a realm they could enter!

But... if they could obtain S-Grade materials, their Beasts would become even stronger after evolving!

Unfortunately, S-Grade materials at the Lord-level become extremely rare. Even with money, you can't buy them, and even if you accumulate enough contribution points, you can at most exchange for A-Class materials at the Beastmaster Association!

“S-Grade materials are monopolized, you can't get them even if you want to!”

“If I had S-Grade materials, my Beast could even suppress A-Class Beasts after evolving!”

This was the only way to overtake others on a curve.

At this moment, Fang Ran realized he was quite lucky.

He could obtain High-level Beast Master materials at the Imperial Capital Academy, and his senior sister could also help him get them.

“Favors owed must always be repaid; we still have to rely on ourselves.”

“I will win!” The Slime stuck to Fang Ran's hand and said excitedly.

Night fell.

“Fang Brother, want to get together tonight? It's all familiar faces from the group chat, and there are quite a few girls too?”

That young man shouted to Brother Pao and Fang Ran.

“I won't go,” Brother Pao shook his head.

“What about you, Fang Ran? I heard that store even has different races!”

As soon as the young man finished speaking.

Fang Ran felt a prickling sensation on his back.

Although his body was already itching to go, he still said, “Forget it, my aunt told me to go home for dinner.”

His refusal was quite clear, and the young man could only say helplessly, “Why work so hard? Anyway, it's hard for us to get into the top 100. The main thing is to have fun!”

Brother Pao, on the other hand, looked at Fang Ran with some surprise.

“Rest up and conserve your energy. Maintain good condition, and there's still a chance to get into the top 100!”

Leaving this remark.

He turned and left.

Fang Ran did the same, returning home.

As night fell.

Fang Ran was honing his mental power in the Beast Taming Space.

【Mental Forging Method (Perfect)】

Three months of practice.

Fang Ran's mental power was now incredibly formidable!

“My strength has increased by more than two or three times compared to before.”

It wasn't that he had become stronger.

Rather, he was receiving more feedback from his Beasts!

Opening his eyes again, he was lying on his bedroom bed, with the sleeping Xiao Tian on his left.

On the other side was a figure exactly identical to Xiao Tian, except it had a pair of large, snow-white wings behind it, and it was looking at Fang Ran with slightly flushed cheeks.

It wasn't until Fang Ran lay down helplessly on the crowded bed.

Only then did she pull Fang Ran's shoulder, place it under her neck, and lean into his embrace.

“What are you doing?” The Xiao Tian beside them propped up her upper body and looked at her coldly, “I told you to come protect Master.”

From Fang Ran's perspective, he could see a pair of upright figures appear in his line of sight. He didn't know whether to look or not.

But he suddenly realized that Xiao Tian had been pretending to be asleep all along.

“It's better to be close to protect him, otherwise how can I react in time?”

Xiao Tian was stunned for a moment, then fell into thought and said, “That seems to make some sense.”

...

Early the next morning.

In the Martial Arts Field.

“So tired,” the young man said with panda eyes, as if he had overexerted himself last night.

But at this moment, he looked at Fang Ran and said, “Fang Brother, why are both your arms purple?”

“I overtrained last night,” Fang Ran replied while moving his arms.

“Stop chatting, it's about to start.”

Brother Pao reminded him.

He looked very energetic.

After a while, everyone came into the Martial Arts Field.

As expected, the opponents this time were much weaker than Fang Ran had imagined.

He still won with a record of 5-0.

And that young man.

Almost lost to a Beast Tamer weaker than himself!

The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day.

The number of contestants in the preliminary round was decreasing!

It was also on this day.

Brother Pao's Beast was poisoned and sent to the infirmary for emergency treatment.

Fortunately, thanks to previous experience, his Beast was successfully rescued!

“Damn it, that bastard did it on purpose!”

“He even mocked me to my face, saying I couldn't beat him even though I was stuck at this level.”

Brother Pao's face darkened as he cursed.

“Don't panic, Brother Pao, the list of qualifiers will be announced after today!” The young man was nervous.

He had played a total of 25 matches, and his record was 12-8.

If he could win three more today, his record would still be decent!

...

At this moment.

In the room where the preliminary round spots were being calculated.

At this moment, Hong Zheng, the boss of Hong Zheng Beast Pet Company, was also in this room.

“How is it? How is Liu Wei's performance?”

“With the High-level Beast Master Void Phantom Spider, it's naturally a crushing victory, a record of 23-0. However, this child's temperament is not good, he doesn't know how to hold back!”

The Overseer teacher frowned and said.

“Haha, that's how geniuses are,” Hong Zheng said with a laugh.

He didn't care about this at all.

As long as he could win and get him into the top ten, their Hong Zheng Pet Shop could use this for publicity!

As for how many Beasts were poisoned to death? Just compensate them with money, right?

Those Beast Tamer, even if they grew up, were just stepping stones!

“However, we found another promising talent! His record is also 24-0!”

Several Overseers were excited.

“He's too strong, I watched his recordings, almost all battles ended in an instant!”

“Yes! To be able to use a Slime so masterfully, perhaps he can enter the top ten of the competition!”

“Regardless of whether he's in the top ten, at least the first place in our Imperial Capital division is still debatable.”

Listening to their words.

Hong Zheng immediately frowned.

First place in the division? This won't do!

He had already printed the promotional flyers. If the Beast Tamer from Hong Zheng Pet Shop got first place in the Imperial Capital division and someone snatched it at this time, wouldn't he lose a large sum of money?

Moreover, he had already distributed the promotional flyers! If his competitors saw them, wouldn't he be laughed to death?

“I think it will be difficult to choose if both have a record of 25-0. How about letting them compete against each other?”

Hong Zheng suddenly's eyes lit up and he said.
