Chapter 200: Handsome, are you lonely?

"We will not ask you to do anything that violates morality, Yan Country law, or other illicit acts; we will only ask for your help with small favors within your capabilities."

These smooth words from the Paper Puppet made Long Zhu feel slightly better.

Long Zhu was not someone who couldn't be flexible; human debts are the hardest to repay, but that assumes one is in a position to bargain. If one cannot even guarantee their own livelihood, insisting on such things is just stubbornness.

After all, what he used to pay the medical fees this time was a portion of treasures plus three favors within his capabilities, which did not leave Long Zhu fundamentally harmed.

This filled Long Zhu's eyes with gratitude.

Jiang Dashi is a good person.

He also intended to let others know of Jiang Dashi's existence, so they too could owe Jiang Dashi a favor.

After all, one should worry not about scarcity, but about inequality.

Long Zhu thanked him profusely and Departed with the Ice Glass Dragon, while the Glass Dragon egg was left behind to continue treatment.

The Ice Glass Dragon's eyes were slightly red; with every step it took, it had to turn its head to look at the Glass Dragon egg soaking in the Flower Nectar.

It could feel the vitality of the Glass Dragon egg gradually strengthening.

This was also the reason it was willing to leave the Glass Dragon egg here.

Every parent hopes their child can be born safely.

Peace and joy, this is the greatest blessing.

Once the Glass Dragon egg finished repairing, the Ice Glass Dragon would absolutely guard the egg day and night, waiting for the little Glass Dragon to be born.

Ye Bai was also 'chased' out by Jiang Dashi, the reason being that the Young Qilin Cup Yan Kingdom Competition was about to begin.

"Paper Puppet, you take Ye Bai to report for the Young Qilin Cup Yan Kingdom Competition."

"If you don't win the championship of the Young Qilin Cup, I will not acknowledge you as my disciple."

Jiang Dashi said with a tsundere expression, his eyes full of smiles and a hint of reluctance.

The opening ceremony of the Young Qilin Cup Yan Kingdom Competition was at Imperial Capital University.

Here, Ye Bai saw his two grand-mentors—Su Qingxian and Zhang Dashan.

On their ring fingers, both wore a diamond ring; it seems things were settled.

The two were treated as special guests and attended the opening ceremony.

Ye Bai sent a message to Zhang Lingxue, but received an automatic reply from the message editor.

【Currently conducting research in a closed Secret Realm; will reply immediately after leaving seclusion.】

The opening ceremony was held very grandly, inviting many powerful Breeders and Pet Beast Masters to give speeches.

Among them, Grand-mentor Su Qingxian was the most important; the moment she took the stage, thunderous applause erupted, lasting for a long time.

The entire ceremony was held from morning until afternoon, and the venue for the Young Qilin Cup was inside the Fengchao, the largest stadium of the Yan Kingdom Alliance.

The Fengchao is a large, comprehensive Arena with all living facilities available, including a large commercial hotel.

Moreover, to prevent accidents, the Eastern Azure Dragon Marshal specifically sent Hu Zhu to oversee things.

Ye Bai was assigned to Room 678, located in the northeast corner of the Fengchao; looking out from the window, one could see the Arena of the Fengchao.

Looking up, one could see the sea of stars filling the sky.

Knock, knock, knock.

Ye Bai's door was knocked upon.

The Myriad-Change Silkworm trotted over to open the door.

There was no one outside, but a small pink card had been left behind.

Written on it was: "Handsome, are you lonely?" Ye Bai's mouth twitched; he immediately felt there was a conspiracy. Could someone have put some drug in the small card to make people mentally abnormal?

After all, this is the Yan Country Young Qilin Cup Competition; sabotage happens everywhere.

Back at Shenshan Middle School, Director Su Na had said that one must keep their personal belongings safe; once you leave your seat, even unopened water cannot be drunk.

Once caught using prohibited agents, for a Breeder, it would mean a penalty of being banned from participating in any competition for more than three years.

"Don't move, Myriad-Change Silkworm, I'm making a call."

Seeing that the Myriad-Change Silkworm was about to pick up the card on the ground with its tongue, Ye Bai hurriedly stopped it.

Afterward, Ye Bai dialed the phone directly and reported the situation.

Upon investigation, it was indeed as he had thought; these cards contained hallucinogenic agents that could cause mental instability.

Quite a few contestants had already picked up the cards out of curiosity.

Fortunately, Ye Bai discovered it in advance, otherwise, this would have been a joke.

Night.

Yin Hu, also known as Hu Zhu, sat in the main seat.

Sitting directly opposite him were three people.

One of them was wearing a tracksuit, with a Kanglong Mace tucked into their waist.

The appearance of the Kanglong Mace looked like a rod without a blade; at one end, a golden dragon lay coiled on the Kanglong Mace, and the dragon head was the handle of the Kanglong Mace.

As long as one rotates the Kanglong Mace slightly, the dragon scales on the dragon's body would turn into sharp little spikes. This Kanglong Mace was forged from Cloud Gold and could be used for both offense and defense.

Another person was covered in muscles, their hands covered in calluses, with a leopard's head, round eyes, a swallow's jaw, and tiger's whiskers, with brass knuckles wrapped around their hands.

The brass knuckles were also covered in dense, sharp barbs.

The last person had an upright posture, with three-dimensional and exquisite facial features, and every gesture revealed a calm and unhurried elegance.

A faint smile hung on their face.

In their hand, they held an iron fan as thin as a cicada's wing.

The fan was as gorgeous as a peacock's feathers, and the five characters for Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Faith were written on it.

These three people were Kang Jinlong, Wei Huohu, and Ji Shuibao respectively. "This mission is to protect the safety of the contestants of the Yan Country Young Qilin Cup Competition."

"I hope you can all be diligent."

"The Azure Dragon Marshal has issued a strict order; no accidents are allowed during this Young Qilin Cup."

"The top ten contestants this time will represent our country at the International Youth Breeder Conference."

"This is a matter of upholding the reputation of the Yan Country."

Hu Zhu said in a muffled voice.

The three of them nodded immediately.

"The small card incident is a warning to us; we must not let lawless elements exploit any loopholes."

Gospel Society.

God Faction.

The three Sages of Sun, Moon, and Star met together.

They sat amidst a starry sky.

The Sun Sage had a head of golden hair radiating scorching light; she held the Sun Staff in her left hand and the Sun Canon in her right.

The Moon Sage's body was enveloped in a silver moon, emitting bright moonlight, with the Silver Moon Staff and the Lunar Canon floating in the air.

The Star Sage rested her chin on her hand, looking at the two with amusement; the position she occupied was a head higher than the Sun and Moon Sages.

"My Lord."

The Sun and Moon Sages said respectfully to the Star Sage in unison.

"I have mastered the knowledge of the Gospel Society well enough; it is time to unfold our subsequent plans."

"Once the plan succeeds, we will take the final step."

"I want to see if the Resurrection Society's trinity is more formidable, or if the trinity I created is."

A smile played in the Star Sage's deep, dark blue eyes.

Knowledge—only knowledge could fill the void in her heart.

After the Memory Palace talent underwent Deep Awakening, the Star Sage felt that this talent was no longer under her control.

"The internal strife within the Gospel Society is becoming increasingly severe; the two faction leaders, Bianda and the Necromancer, are forcing us to take sides."

"Come to think of it, I have grown weary of the endless fighting."

"I have already obtained intelligence on the location of the temple of the Knowledge God Ougema."

"As long as we can obtain his protection, our departure from the Gospel Society will basically be without any major issues."

"It is just that the Secret Realm where the temple is located has not yet reached the time to open; we must be patient."

The Star Sage smiled.

"We can now disclose some of the Gospel Society's intelligence to the teacher."

"This was also my purpose for joining the Gospel Society in the first place; my foolish senior brother is still kept in the dark."

A meaningful smile appeared on the Star Sage's face.

After midnight.

Ye Bai's intelligence refreshed once again.

【1. The Wind Eagle and the Bee Eagle look very similar; the only difference is that the Bee Eagle's pupils are black, and its bones are lighter. If you need to suture the bones of a Bee Eagle, you need to use the silk thread spat out by a Black Silk Spider.】

【2. The Black Silk Spider possesses a characteristic: whatever material it eats, the thread it spits out will have the characteristics of that material.】

【3. The Crown of the Dead has been secretly forged into a crown and has appeared in the Imperial Capital Museum; this Crown of the Dead possesses the ability to control the undead.】

【4. A weird phenomenon has appeared in Fengchao: every night at twelve o'clock, if you pass by the statue in the lobby hot spring pool and look into the statue's eyes for a few seconds, you will see your own future.】

【5. According to scientists' discoveries, if a bit of cicada slough from a Spring-Autumn Cicada is mixed into a Strength Potion, it can improve the quality of the Strength Potion.】

Ye Bai looked at the intelligence before him; he knew the intelligence would not be baseless, and the greatest possibility was that the Bee Eagle and the Wind Eagle were Pet Beasts that might be used in the competition.

He immediately found the detailed information on the Bee Eagle and the Wind Eagle and read through it carefully.

Thanks to Heaven Gate, the Encyclopedia of Exotic Beasts contained introductions to both the Bee Eagle and the Wind Eagle.

The Wind Eagle is an Exotic Beast of medium size.

Its eyes are sharp and deep, with golden pupils.

Its beak is curved and sharp, like a slender crescent scimitar, serving as a powerful tool for hunting and tearing apart prey.

Its feathers are dense and lustrous, and its wings are long and powerful, capable of supporting the Wind Eagle in long-duration flight and high-speed dives.

They can use the flapping of their wings and special airflow techniques to interfere with an enemy's line of sight, change wind direction, or generate powerful storms.

Generally, after a Wind Eagle is tamed, it is used by a Pet Beast Master as a scout.

The skill Eagle Eye allows their eyes to see things thousands of meters away.

The Bee Eagle looks very similar to the Wind Eagle, but its pupils are black; this is because they have spent years catching an Exotic Beast called the Black Flame Bee, which contains Highly Toxic substances in its body, causing their pupils to change color.

The Wind Eagle is a pure Wind Type Exotic Beast, while the Bee Eagle is a Wind + Poison attribute Exotic Beast.

The Bee Eagle's blood and Zhua are both Highly Toxic, capable of causing a burning sensation that is excruciatingly painful.

Ye Bai's eyes narrowed slightly; it seemed that there would inevitably be accidents tomorrow.

Some people would certainly come into contact with the Bee Eagle, and if they were not on guard, they would very likely be burned by the Bee Eagle's blood and thus be forced to withdraw from the competition.

What a sinister scheme.
