Chapter 59: Chapter 59 - 59 Sea Selection Scene 1

Translator: 549690339??????? —

The competition’s schedule is quite tight.”

Holding Ziyun and returning to the store, Xu Ran flipped through the small handbook he got at the registration, “Registration ends tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow is the sea election race.”

At his words, Ziyun raised its head from Xu Ran’s embrace, leaning in to read the open booklet as if he was truly comprehending it.

However, it quickly gave up and turned to ask Xu Ran.

“Meow?” (Is the sea election race difficult?)

“Hard to say.” Xu Ran shrugged, “According to the schedule instructions, only in the rematch after the sea election race, will there be confrontations between contestants.”

“So, in the sea election race, we won’t have to face off against other contestants.”

“Meow” (Then how can we advance?)

“The organizer will send out some Beast Masters of similar strength.

Contestants can challenge as many times as they like during the three-day sea election race stage. As long as you can defeat one of the Beast Masters, you can advance to the rematch.”

“So the difficulty of the sea election race hinges on the level of the Beast Masters sent out by the organizer,” Xu Ran’s tone shifted, “Of course, I think we should have no problem getting through the sea election race.” -After all, if there really are only four contestants who obtained a thousand points in the preliminary tests, then our strength should be considered upper-tier among all contestants, right?”

“Meow-”

Ziyun nodded seriously, looking filled with confidence.

It is certain that it will smoothly advance in the sea election race!

“After we go back, it’s time to feed the Armored Rhinoceros.” Xu Ran stole a glance at the time, then expressed his feelings, “I’m not used to having two fewer fostered Pet Beasts around. I hope Zhang Yun’s suggestion works and we can have more fostered Pet Beasts in the store.”

In this way, whether it’s for pleasure value or physical points, the daily gains would be considerable. With the Main task 4’s requirement for my drug application skill to reach C-class, having more fostered Pet Beasts would speed up the completion of the task.

Having a casual chat with his pet, they quickly returned to the Starfire Foster Care Shop.

By the time they dressed up and departed from the Starfire Foster Care Shop for the sea election race venue, it was already the morning of two days later. The interior structure of the sea election race venue somewhat resembled a Roman colosseum, with a large open space in the middle for combat and tiered spectator seats around it.

Unexpectedly to Xu Ran, this New Beast Master Challenge was quite popular. By the time he entered, the spectator seats were already seventy to eighty percent filled.

Finding an empty seat to sit down, Xu Ran originally planned to quietly wait for the start of the sea election race. Seeing the Ziyun being held by him, a young man of similar age sitting next to him initiated conversation.

“Brother, are you also a contestant of the sea election race?”

“Yes.” Xu Ran nodded, looking at the man without a Pet Beast beside him, “Are you one too?”

“I’m not.” The young man scratched his head, looking rueful, “I just contracted a Pet Beast and didn’t even pass the preliminaries.”

“I, Tian Futao, am born in the wrong era!” He let out a sigh, showing a blend of three parts chagrin and seven parts mystery.

“I see.” Xu Ran twitched the corner of his mouth.

“But my friend is a contestant. Look, there he is!” Tian Futao pointed to a young man sitting on his other side, “Zhuang He, he got more than 300 points in the preliminaries! Impressive, right?”

“Impressive.” Xu Ran responded casually along with Tian Futao’s words, then glanced at the boy called Zhuang He.

Zhuang He looked at Xu Ran and gave him a reserved nod, sort of a greeting. “Don’t mind him, that’s just the way he is.” Tian Futao laughed amiably “You know, not many contestants carry their competitive Pet Beasts around like you Most of them would summon their Pet Beasts only when they get on stage.” “My Pet Beast is small, is there a need for that?” Xu Ran patted Ziyun.

You probably wouldn’t know, then!” Tian Futao giggled, “This has nothing to do with the size of the Pet Beasts. It’s mainly to keep it a secret and prevent other competitors from knowing our cards.”

“Of course, the secret won’t last long. Anyways, once you get on stage at the sea election race, everyone will find out.”

Xu Ran nodded slightly.

He also felt there was no real need, and with Ziyun’s clingy attitude, it might not want to wait in the store for him to summon it.

“Why don’t you put your bag on the seat next to you, there are plenty of vacant seats here.” Seeing Xu Ran sitting with a bag strapped on him, Tian Futao couldn’t help but suggest, “Speaking of it, why are you bringing such a big bag to the competition?”

“Could it be a secret weapon?” He chuckled.

“This? It’ll come in handy later.” Xu Ran placed the bag on the seat beside and smiled mysteriously, “You’ll know when I get on stage.”

“I’ll be looking forward to it.” Tian Futao looked around and lowered his voice a bit, “Do you know, there’re rumors that four freaks who scored over a thousand points in the preliminary registered this time.”

“I know.” Xu Ran’s mouth twitched slightly.

Not only do I know, but I’m also one of them.

“Do you know who they are?” Tian Futao winked at Xu Ran.

You do?” Xu Ran was somewhat surprised.

He and Tian Futao haven’t known each other before, can it be that Tian Futao already knows about his identity?

“I know half of it.” Tian Futao scratched his head, “I’ve guessed the identities of two of those freaks.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“In fact, not just me, a good number of young Beast Masters in Qingzhou City have guessed it because they were already quite famous even before signing

Then it seems likely that I’m not one of the two people Tian Futao knows about.

Xu Ran nodded in understanding, getting curious then, “Could you tell me about those two people?”

“Of course, no problem.” Tian Futao laughed, obviously enjoying the feeling of

Sharing intel with others, “The first one is Lyu Guang, the new generation inheritor of Bamboo Leaf Martial Arts Pavilion.”

Martial Arts Pavilion?” Xu Ran raised his eyebrows, “What’s that?”

“A Martial Arts Pavilion is a place to practice martial arts, you know, Beast

Masters can be boosted by their Pet Beast, strengthening their body’to become more powerful in combat,” Tian Futao explained, “That’s not important though.”

“Most importantly, some fighting attribute Pet Beasts can learn human martial arts to become stronger.”

“So, a lot of Martial Arts Pavilions not only provide a place to practice martial arts but also breed a few suitable fighting Pet Beast species, forming unique Beast Master styles.”

“I think I understand.” Xu Ran nodded, “So this Beast Master named Lyu Guang

has a fighting attribute Pet Beast and is very strong?”

“Right.” Tian Futao talked earnestly, “Lyu Guang’s Pet Beast is a Combat Bear, a fighting attribute Pet Beast.”

“Half a month ago, Lyu Guang visited the other Martial Arts Pavilions with his

Pet Beast, challenging their younger generation, undefeated in every match!” “That’s indeed impressive.” Xu Ran’s expression turned more serious, looking around he hoped to find the Beast Master named Lyu Guang. Unfortunately, there were so many people in the spectator seats that it was hard to find any particular person.

Tian Futao chuckled, “The second

one is not any simpler..”
