Chapter 111 Arrival at the Sixth Tower
Soon, the car finally drove into a castle surrounded by six high towers. After a series of explicit or implicit inspections, Zhang Shan signaled the two to get out of the car.
"Here are your IDs. With these, you can enter and leave the headquarters freely. As for your dormitories, someone will take you there later."
Zhang Shan took out two certificates and handed them to the two men, then turned around and left without looking back.
Seeing that Zhang Shan didn't mention the blow just now, Bai Qi got a headache.
The barking dog never bites...呸呸, this is not appropriate. There must be a storm hidden beneath the calm. It feels like Zhang Shan will take revenge on his personal enemies.
"You don't have to worry about that. Although Master Zhang Shan doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, he is well-known for being selfless and will never let personal grudges affect his work."
"Is that so? Then I feel relieved."
After hearing Bai Qiucha's explanation, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, then followed Bai Qiucha to the castle gate. After showing his ID again, he successfully entered the castle hall.
In the assembly hall, many specially trained beastmasters had already arrived.
However, these beast masters clearly had a strong sense of their own territory. They stood in the hall in groups of three or four, without any communication between them.
When Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha pushed the door open and walked in, all the beastmasters' eyes were focused on them.
Either they glance sideways or they look at you openly, but mostly they are full of provocation and hostility.
Those who are selected into the special training program are all outstanding people. Almost all of them are arrogant and feel dissatisfied with everyone. The difference is that some are introverted and some are extroverted.
Of course, the most crucial reason is the identities of the two people.
One is the son of a legend who has long been known as a genius, and the other is a rune evolution developer who has recently become famous. It would be really pretentious to say that you don’t know them.
However, Bai Qi and the other man didn't care. They ignored the many provocative looks and walked straight to a corner.
Seeing the looks on Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha's faces, the beastmasters who arrived first couldn't help but look away in disappointment.
There are many people among them who are eager to see chaos in the world. Most of them are there to watch the show. What they most hope to see is that Bai Qi or Bai Qiucha can lose their patience and fight with the "classmates" around them, so that they can take a closer look at the fighting power of both sides.
But Bai Qi would naturally not do such a stupid thing. According to Old Man Qin, his level in the special training was the lowest. If he really wanted to stand out, it should be Bai Qiucha, who was already at the fourth level, who should stand out.
However, after looking around, Bai Qi suddenly quickened his pace and walked towards a young man who looked a little dull not far away.
Seeing Bai Qi's actions, the beastmasters around him suddenly became excited again.
Are we going to take action?
As if he had noticed Bai Qi approaching, the dull young man turned around, and after seeing that it was Bai Qi, he instinctively took a step back.
"Gu Shan, why are you here too?"
Bai Qi was unfamiliar with the place and had no intention of taking the initiative to deal with these people. He did not expect to see an acquaintance here.
Gu Shan was obviously still immersed in the shadow of being killed instantly by Bai Qi before. When he heard Bai Qi's question, he was stunned for a long time before reacting.
"Well, the president said that my dual talents should not be wasted, so he sent me in as well."
Bai Qi nodded. Gu Shan's two talents were both very good if taken separately, and their value would double when they appeared on the same person at the same time. If Cui Ming didn't take them seriously, he would be unworthy of his position as the branch president.
However, young people, saying such things in public can easily attract hatred.
Sure enough, after Gu Shan mentioned his dual talents, many people around him turned their attention to Gu Shan.
The probability of a person with double talents appearing is even lower than the probability of winning the jackpot by buying a random federal lottery ticket. I didn't expect to meet one during this training camp.
Soon, the attention of the beastmasters in the hall was basically focused on Gu Shan, and Bai Qi, who attracted the most attention at the beginning, was slowly ignored.
However, this seems to be a good idea.
Feeling fewer and fewer eyes on him, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, while Gu Shan tearfully took on the pressure that should have been concentrated on Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha.
Did I say something wrong again?
Sure enough, my mother was right. I should talk less outside, otherwise it would be easy to offend people.
Thinking of this, Gu Shan closed his mouth tightly and stopped talking. Bai Qi was too embarrassed to continue to trick Gu Shan, so he leaned against the wall and drank the divine water.
Although the battle with Zhang Shan did not take long, Alpha also suffered some injuries. In order to prevent any further accidents, Bai Qi directly threw Alpha into the evolution egg to speed up his recovery.
As the saying goes, good things don't work, but bad things do. Just when Bai Qi closed his eyes to rest, a tall woman suddenly walked towards Bai Qi. The beastmasters around him were also cheered up when they saw this and focused their attention on Bai Qi again.
The woman walked up to Bai Qi, took the initiative to extend her hand to him, and said:
"Hello, can I meet you?"
Bai Qi opened his eyes and looked around, then asked, "Are you looking for me?"
The woman smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, it's you, Bai Qi."
Bai Qi scratched his head and looked at the woman curiously.
Although she was wrapped in a long windbreaker, her slim figure could still be seen. Although she wore a pair of rustic glasses on her face, it still couldn't hide her exquisite face.
Well, a real beauty.
The woman obviously enjoyed Bai Qi's scrutinizing gaze and raised her head unconsciously, but after hearing Bai Qi's next words, she froze in place.
"Well, I don't owe you money, do I?"
The woman sighed speechlessly, reorganized her thoughts, and said, "My name is Lu Qing, a student of the Tower of Knowledge, majoring in runes. I heard that you are the pioneer of rune evolution, so I want to get to know you."
Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Since ancient times, when a beautiful woman took the initiative to chat with someone, it was either because she owed a debt or was seeking revenge, no matter how handsome she was.
But this Lu Qing is actually a member of the Sixth Tower. No wonder the guys around her are so excited.
The Six Towers are the core of the Beastmaster Association.
They are the Tower of Decision, the Tower of Sacred Relics, the Tower of Moonlight, the Tower of Competition, the Tower of Knowledge and the Tower of Thorns.
It is said that these six towers were left by six people in the association's history who were infinitely close to the legendary level, but in the end they all seemed unable to break through to the legendary level and left their secret towers here.
The Tower of Knowledge is specifically used to store a series of information such as illustrations and evolution formulas owned by the association.
Simply put, this is the association's own library.
Lu Qing was able to become a student of the Tower of Knowledge, so she obviously had some foundation, and was definitely different from him who was a half-baked person.
"Sorry, I don't know much about runes. I may disappoint you."
Hearing Bai Qi's answer, Lu Qing couldn't help but frown.
The founder of rune evolution actually said that he didn't know much about runes. If you don't want to communicate, just say so. Is there any point in coming up with such a ridiculous reason?
"In that case, excuse me for bothering you."
Being rejected by Bai Qi with such a casual reason, Lu Qing had no intention of continuing to pester him and turned around to leave.
At this moment, a fit girl in sportswear suddenly jumped out from the crowd, approached Bai Qi, looked him up and down, and said, "Hey, you are Bai Qi, you are quite handsome, no wonder Qing'er keeps talking about you all day long."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, Bai Qi was suddenly a little confused, and the onlookers around him suddenly turned into hungry wolves, casting hostile looks at him.
It's rare to see one or two beauties in Tepe, and this one was actually booked in advance?
Damn it!
"Zhou Yan, if you keep talking nonsense, I will seal your mouth."
Looking at Zhou Yan with an ambiguous look on his face, Lu Qing did not feel shy at all. She pushed her glasses and said lightly.
"Uh, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Zhou Yan smiled awkwardly, then noticed a group of murderous beast masters around him. He glared at them, put his hands on his hips and shouted at them, "What are you looking at? Do you want to fight me?!"
After hearing Zhou Yan's words, some Beast Tamers who knew the situation immediately withdrew their gazes and dared not look again, while the others seemed to realize that Zhou Yan was not someone to be trifled with, and also turned their heads away.
"Oh my god, this young lady looks so cruel."
Seeing that Zhou Yan had persuaded countless beastmasters to retreat with just one sentence, Bai Qi was full of admiration. When he was about to ask Bai Qiucha about Zhou Yan's background, he found that Bai Qiucha had quietly walked away at some point.
"Bai Qiucha, where are you going?"
As soon as Bai Qi said this, Bai Qiucha froze in place, and Zhou Yan immediately noticed Bai Qiucha's presence and pounced on him.
"Xiaobai, you're here too? Come on, play a couple of games with me. I haven't played for a long time, and I'm itching to do it."
Bai Qiucha turned around stiffly, smiled at Zhou Yan, and said, "Sister Yan, is that you?"
"Nonsense, if it's not me, then who is it? Hey... you're already at the fourth level?"
Zhou Yan quickly noticed the four spell patterns on Bai Qiucha's hand, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Great, this way I don't have to tie my hands and fight you."
Upon hearing Zhou Yan's words, Bai Qiucha's face suddenly turned bitter.
"Sister Yan, my friend wants to talk to me about something. Can I play with you later?"
"Friends? Friends from where?"
Zhou Yan looked around and asked, and Bai Qiucha realized that Bai Qi had disappeared at some point, and some beastmasters who knew the situation had also left this troubled place, leaving Gu Shan the only one standing there in a daze.
"Are you talking about him? That's perfect. One-on-one isn't fun, so let's do one-on-two."
Having said that, Zhou Yan directly pulled Bai Qiucha and Gu Shan and ran towards the battlefield on the side as if he was familiar with the route.
After the three people left, Bai Qi emerged from the corner, looked at the three people going away, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want to provoke someone who was so afraid of Bai Qiucha, the guy who always wanted to drag him into a fight. But it was a pity for Gu Shan, who was dragged into this for no reason.
Well, three seconds of silence can be considered as a blessing for the two of them.
