Chapter 367: There is definitely something fishy going on!
Seeing that Bai Qi accepted his challenge, Zhou Yan stopped pestering him and looked at Bai Qiucha beside him, saying, "Ah Cha, have you been neglecting your training recently? I heard from the teacher that you seem to be only studying at school?"
Bai Qiucha nodded and said, "Because I'm a student originally. What else can I do if I'm not in school?"
"Well, Ah Cha, what you said makes me feel ashamed."
After hearing what Bai Qiucha said, Bai Qi scratched his head in embarrassment.
As a student of Star Machinery Academy, he seemed to have not attended many classes properly since he became a Beast Tamer. Including this time when he went back, he seemed to be running around more.
"Bai Qi, you can't be treated as a normal student, right? After all, this is the first time I've heard of the same person being both a teacher and a student at the same time."
Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "You have been a celebrity in the Federation recently. You have the Spirit Control Ball, the second rune evolution, and the weapon evolution. Even the resurrection of the ancient species has not been able to overshadow you."
Bai Qi sighed helplessly and said, "It's just luck, it's not that exaggerated."
"By the way, speaking of ancient species, has anyone among you signed a contract? I heard that the Jiuli Consortium has already opened contracts to the public?"
When it comes to ancient species, Zhou Yan and others' attention is immediately diverted and they ask repeatedly.
"I have already contracted a king-level fossil Spinosaurus."
Li Mu raised his right hand and said.
"Li Mu? Why didn't you tell me when you signed the contract? I want it too, wuwuwu..."
Zhou Yan was surprised when he heard this, grabbed Li Mu by the collar and asked.
"Yesterday, Zhou Yan, your fifth pet has already been contracted, right?"
Li Mu responded indifferently, and then his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Bai Qi.
I wonder if this king-level ancient species can fight against Bai Qi?
"Oh, it's all Jiuli Financial Group's fault. When they announced the resurrection of the ancient species, I had already signed the contract. Damn it."
Zhou Yan clenched his fists in hatred, but Lu Qing pushed up her glasses and said, "Most of the ancient species that have been announced so far are king-level, and the lower limit is not low. However, the way ancient species evolve is not clear at present. Contracting with them is risky, so there is no need to be so regretful."
Zhou Yan felt better after hearing Lu Qing's words.
"Bai Qi, after the meeting, can you fight me?"
Gu Shan silently looked at the curse pattern on the back of Bai Qi's hand, hesitated for a while, and finally issued a challenge.
"Another challenge?"
Bai Qi scratched his head. Gu Shan had really been in the competition tower for too long. How come he, like Zhou Yan, only thought about fighting?
It's meaningless since we can't fight for points.
"Yes, I want to see how big the gap is between you and me now."
Gu Shan nodded.
In order to catch up with Bai Qi, he trained extremely hard in the past three months and successfully grew into a fourth-level beastmaster. Although he was still one step slower than Bai Qi, he still wanted to give it a try.
"If that's the case, I also want to challenge it."
Upon hearing this, Li Mu also challenged Bai Qi, and it was obvious that he had been hesitating for a long time.
"You guys are really..."
Looking at the two people who were full of fighting spirit, Bai Yuxiao couldn't help but smack his lips.
Challenging this pervert, not to mention that he is only at the fourth level now, even if he is at the same level as Bai Qi, he will not challenge him.
Having been beaten so badly last time, he has no interest in another round.
"Okay, the instructors should have arrived. Let's go to the assembly hall and wait. We can catch up slowly after the summary meeting is over. There won't be many opportunities to gather like today in the future."
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yuan immediately tried to smooth things over. Gu Shan and the others then stopped pressing the issue, and Bai Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you very much."
Bai Qi looked at Xiao Yuan gratefully, but Xiao Yuan suddenly had a sly smile on his face and said, "But when the meeting is over, remember to count me in when you challenge me."
These people are here for revenge...
Bai Qi covered his face and sighed, feeling a headache.
I was thinking of going to Nicholas as soon as possible after the meeting to ask about the Green Dragon Scale, but it seems like I can't get away all of a sudden.
"Little guys, come over here and gather together!"
At this moment, Leng Feifei's roar suddenly came from the assembly hall. Zhou Yan, who was originally thinking of reminding Bai Qi of the first come first served principle, was suddenly startled and instinctively ran towards the assembly hall.
Seeing this, Bai Qi felt relieved. He quickened his pace and ran into the assembly hall, fearing that these people would get angry again.
They are all so violent and aggressive. I really need to let Beta discuss Buddhism with them someday.
Several people walked into the assembly hall one after another, and a group of instructors including Leng Feifei, Zhang Shan, and Luo Xiang were already in place.
However, what attracted the students' most attention were the six tower masters who appeared at the beginning of the formal training camp.
Today is their last chance to join the Six Towers.
Soon, all the trainees from all over the federation arrived, and Leng Feifei also stood up from her seat, scanning the group of trainees below.
"First of all, congratulations on successfully completing the third phase of training. I think everyone should have benefited a lot from it."
As soon as Leng Feifei said this, the students below all nodded.
Although this third stage did not provide them with specific theoretical or practical teaching like the previous two stages, the places they chose were based on their own abilities and characteristics, and they were all the most suitable places for their development, so they did gain a lot.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will choose their future development direction based on the training in this third phase.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Leng Feifei nodded in satisfaction and continued, "From today on, you will officially enter society as graduates of our Beast Tamer Association's training camp, so little ones, remember to behave well."
"However, before that, I need to announce the top ten outstanding students of this training camp."
As she spoke, Leng Feifei pressed the button in her hand, and a huge screen dropped from the sky. A blank ranking list was displayed on the screen. Except for the ranking from 1 to 10, the list column was still empty.
But soon, a name appeared in the tenth place.
"Li Xiao? He's only ranked tenth?"
Like Xiao Yuan and others, Li Xiao was already a fourth-rank Beast Tamer when he participated in the training camp. Although he was not as dazzling as Bai Qi and others, his performance in all aspects was also good. Unexpectedly, he was only ranked tenth.
"It's over, it's over. Even Li Xiao is only ranked tenth. I have no chance. I will get beaten again when I go back."
Bai Yuxiao couldn't help but look bitter when he saw this. Bai Tongchen had given him a task. In addition to graduating successfully, he also had to make it into the top ten.
Soon after, the lists of ninth and eighth place also emerged one after another. They were Ran Xu and Qiao Li, who were once third-rank beastmasters.
"Well, Yuxiao, you don't have to panic. What if you rank higher than them?"
Zhou Yan couldn't help but comfort her upon seeing this, but Bai Yuxiao was too lazy to manage her finances. It was only after seeing the name of the seventh person appear on the screen that her original despair was immediately replaced by endless light.
"Holy crap! I'm ranked seventh!"
"Students below, please be quiet!"
Bai Yuxiao's voice was not controlled. All the students turned their heads to look at Bai Yuxiao. Bai Tongchen, who was sitting at the top, criticized her immediately, but he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
"Tongchen, don't be so strict with your child. Yuxiao's personality is not suitable for being controlled too much."
Zhao Futu smiled when he saw this and couldn't help but persuade him.
"President, you know this kid is just like a monkey. If he hadn't been disciplined from time to time, who knows where he would have drifted to now."
Bai Tongchen waved his hand and said, "You're only seventh. It looks like you need to practice more."
Zhao Futu smiled and continued looking at the screen.
"Sixth place, Gu Shan."
There was an uproar in the hall when they saw the name appear on the screen again , but some students who stayed in the headquarters looked as if they were used to it.
They all saw Gushan's efforts after joining the Tower of Competition, and his dual talents of Beast Taming Space Enhancement and Elemental Resonance began to show their fangs as Gushan's level increased.
Even without counting these, as the only two second-level beastmasters who participated in the training camp, Gu Shan's progress was definitely not slow.
"Tsk tsk... As expected, as long as someone trains a person with dual talents, their progress will definitely not be slow."
Bai Qi nodded slightly when he saw this. With Gu Shan's dual talents, as Gu Shan's level increases, his advantage will become greater and greater.
After all, neither the number of pets nor the terrifying attack power brought by the elemental resonance can be matched by ordinary beastmasters.
Even with so many pets, the resources that Gushan needs to consume are quite a lot.
Suddenly I felt a little sympathy for Gu Shan.
Bai Qi smacked his lips and continued to look at the list in front of him.
"Fifth place, Li Mu."
"The fourth place is Lu Qing."
"Third place, Xiao Yuan."
"Second place, Bai Qiucha."
“First place …”
Leng Feifei paused, looked at Bai Qi, and continued: "Bai Qi!"
"How is it possible that I am not on the list? This is a shady deal. It's absolutely a shady deal!"
Looking at the list announced by Leng Feifei, Zhou Yan's face was full of disbelief, and he didn't even notice Leng Feifei's horrified look on the stage.
"That's normal. If you want to be in the top ten, you have to at least pass the theory course. From what I know, it seems that you failed several courses."
Lu Qing pushed up her glasses and said, "Also, this list seems to have been compiled by Instructor Leng."
"Is it arranged by the teacher?"
Zhou Yan suddenly shuddered, feeling the terrifying murderous intent coming from the side, and swallowed his saliva with difficulty.
I feel like I'm doomed...
"This list is not based solely on your level. Your growth and daily performance are all reflected in it. If you have any objections, you can come to me for consultation later."
Leng Feifei retracted her gaze and turned to look at Zhao Futu. Zhao Futu then slowly stood up, walked to the front of the stage, and said, "In fact, you don't have to be so obsessed with this list. If you want to judge a beastmaster, you still have to look at the final achievement. I think everyone here will definitely grow into the backbone of the association and even the federation in the future."
After hearing what Zhao Futu said, the students who were unable to wait for help felt much better.
Indeed, the fact that they were able to participate in and complete the training camp already shows that they are rare geniuses. As for people like Bai Qi, they are perverts and there is no need to worry about them.
Even if we take a step back and say that even Zhou Yan didn’t make it to the list, it’s normal that they can’t make it either.
