Chapter 841: Southeast Talent Beast Tamer Competition! Furious Qian Hailong!
To others, Su Yang must be surrounded by beauties on all sides, utterly delighted.
But only Su Yang knew he was innocent.
Xue Li and Liu Mengyun slightly disliked each other.
More accurately, Xue Li didn't like the Ice Moon Sprite.
Coincidentally, the Ice Moon Sprite and Liu Mengyun were both of the "I don't need your approval" type.
All three had strong personalities and refused to back down.
Su Yang suspected that if he weren't there, they'd already be fighting.
Su Yang had tried to get them to get along.
But it was nearly impossible.
They only promised him verbally…?
So, as long as they didn't argue, Su Yang let them be.
Do whatever you want!
Thirteen days passed, and Su Yang barely upgraded the Exploding Yan Mo to Star-Shine Top-Grade.
In hunting ferocious beasts, the Exploding Yan Mo, with greater destructive power and wider attack range, outpaced the Seven-Colored Illusory Butterfly and the Void Wandering Spirit.
When the fourteenth day arrived, Su Yang bid farewell to Liu Mengyun, returned the disgruntled Xue Li to his beast space, and headed for Zhanghai City with the Void Wandering Spirit.
The Void Wandering Spirit used its Void Stride skill twice and delivered Su Yang to the outskirts of Zhanghai City.
Su Yang was extremely satisfied with this speed!
He figured that once the Void Wandering Spirit became a King-Level beast, he could have it take him on a tour of the southwest!
His face wounds had healed; it was time to go back and check in.
Writing letters all the time wasn't enough!
After showing his credentials, Zhanghai City's city guard immediately assigned Su Yang a driver to take him to the Zhaodaisuo.
Arriving at the entrance of the Zhaodaisuo, Su Yang thanked the driver and walked straight through the Zhaodaisuo gate.
At the Zhaodaisuo entrance stood four beast tamers; one was a middle-aged Gold-Level beast tamer, the other three were young Silver-Level beast tamers.
Of the four, only one young beast tamer wasn't wearing a military uniform.
Instead, he wore the Zhenbao Pavilion's standard uniform, with a "珍" character embroidered on his chest.
The other three were active-duty soldiers.
Su Yang guessed they must be contestants from other cities, here for the competition!
Contestants weren't necessarily affiliated with the military.
Even young geniuses from other factions could qualify if they placed in the top three within their own city.
Just like Liu Mengyun!
In Su Yang's homeland, the southwest, the military held absolute dominance; few young beast tamers came from other factions.
In the southeast, Zhenbao Pavilion's young beast tamer geniuses would likely make up a significant portion.
The middle-aged Gold-Level beast tamer told the receptionist: "We're from Fuxincheng—we need lodging at the Zhaodaisuo!"
The attractive receptionist replied politely: "I'm sorry, my lord, the Zhaodaisuo is fully booked. The military has arranged alternative accommodations for you—we'll send a driver; wait outside by the left, that military vehicle!"
"Oh! That's fine!"
The middle-aged beast tamer nodded.
Su Yang glanced outside the glass door; indeed, a military vehicle was parked there.
Su Yang was about to leave when the receptionist called out: "That Colonel, are you also staying at the Zhaodaisuo?"
"Didn't you just say there were no rooms?"
The receptionist smiled: "Please show your credentials—there might still be one."
Su Yang handed over his credentials; the receptionist's face lit up instantly upon seeing them: "Oh! It's Colonel Su! We've reserved a room for you!"
"Didn't you just say there were no rooms?"
The young beast tamer from Zhenbao Pavilion complained.
"There weren't no rooms—just all already assigned!"
The receptionist corrected him.
The young man from Zhenbao Pavilion felt that phrasing was even more insulting…
The middle-aged beast tamer from Fuxincheng quickly pulled the Zhenbao Pavilion youth aside, saluted Su Yang with a military salute, and hurriedly led the three youths away.
"Colonel Su, please follow me—I'll take you to your room!"
The receptionist's enthusiasm made Su Yang slightly embarrassed.
Outside the Zhaodaisuo, in the military vehicle, the young man from Zhenbao Pavilion complained: "Captain Ji, why did you hold me back? Maybe there's still a room—if we stay outside, it won't be as good as the military lodging; poor rest will hurt my performance!"
Captain Ji said: "Hua Wenhua, this is Zhanghai City—tone down your attitude, be more discreet!"
"So what if it's Zhanghai City? Zhenbao Pavilion still commands respect here!"
Captain Ji whispered: "That Colonel was just here—we should leave. I'm afraid you'll delay him, anger him, and he'll tear you apart."
"Why would he?"
"Because he's Colonel Su Yang!"
Hua Wenhua exclaimed: "Wait… the Su City Lord from Mount Dajiao?"
