Beast Tamer: I'm invincible because I can see the evolution path!

Chapter 127 Life is about daring to try new things! Climbing the charts!

It's really hard to say no.

Qiao Bai could only nod with difficulty.

then……

Qiao Bai quickly regretted it.

"There's no reason why, don't ask why. That's just what I was thinking at the time. You're reading a paper, not doing reading comprehension," Qiao Bai said expressionlessly. "Besides, even when doing reading comprehension, the author himself might not get a perfect score."

"I'm just a researcher, not a great writer, can you understand?"

"No." The group shook their heads. "So how exactly did you manage to come up with the idea of ​​having Grandpa Huo lead Altera to challenge the Dragon King under such circumstances?"

Qiao Bai: "..."

understood.

These people aren't here to do reading comprehension exercises.

These people are here to hear stories.

Qiao Bai, forced to do reading comprehension and storytelling: "..."

Resistance.

Two fists can't beat ten hands.

The five people opposite him were staring at him menacingly.

"Let's find a place to see if your strength has improved recently?" Qiao Bai's eyes swept over Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, Li Gan, Zou Tang, and Huo Xiaotian.

The four people in front either kept quiet or quietly looked away.

cough cough.

When it comes to fighting... Huo Xiaotian is the only one who doesn't feel guilty at all when facing Qiao Bai's gaze.

"A battle? Sure, Brother Qiao!" Huo Xiaotian said excitedly, his eyes sparkling. "Let me tell you, Brother Qiao, my baby dragon's strength has improved again these past two days. I have a feeling that within two years, my baby dragon will definitely evolve into a Juliet!"

As he spoke, Huo Xiaotian proudly puffed out his chest.

The other four people besides Qiao Bai exchanged glances, and they saw the same thought in each other's eyes.

"Two years? Isn't that a bit too long?"

"You clearly haven't practiced enough."

"Try harder, and shorten the time a bit more?"

"Huo Xiaotian, are you impotent?!" Unlike the other three people who were meeting Huo Xiaotian for the first time and weren't very familiar with him, Zou Tang spoke in a sarcastic tone.

Huo Xiaotian bristled: "Two years is a long time? Baby Dragon is a dragon-type pet! Even if it takes four or five years to evolve, it wouldn't be strange at all!"

"It's as if your Baling Turtle will definitely evolve within two years!" The weakness of being too familiar with each other lies here, and Huo Xiaotian accurately found Zou Tang's Achilles' heel.

It does take a long time for his baby dragon to evolve, but Zou Tang's Balin turtle isn't much better!

As a pure water-type turtle, Balin Turtle has a unique advantage in defense, with a hard shell and a long health bar.

Although slower than ordinary supernatural creatures, the Balin Turtle can usually wear down its opponents by relying on its tough shield and health bar, even at the same level.

However, Baling turtles in their hatchling stage are not without their weaknesses. Their attack methods are not fierce enough, making them unable to fight back effectively and end battles quickly.

This situation will only occur when the Baling Turtle evolves into the Wanjue Turtle, changing from crawling on four limbs to walking on two legs, with its freed forelimbs serving as hands, at which point its attack power will suddenly increase.

Furthermore, the evolved Wanjue Turtle comes with its own weapon.

That is the shell that it shed during its juvenile stage, which was broken into pieces. The edges of each piece of shell were polished very smoothly and sharply, making it the most handy weapon of the Wanjue Turtle.

The evolutionary process and the time it takes... are very long, extremely long.

After all, barn turtles rarely face life-or-death crises when they don't have any particularly powerful natural predators.

If you accidentally encounter this, just keep hiding.

苟。

This word is probably etched into the genes of the Baling turtle.

Even after being contracted by humans and becoming their pets, the Balin Turtle will still occasionally display the essence of surviving.

It's uncontrollable.

It's impossible to control even the slightest bit.

Just as the two were about to start arguing, Qiao Bai interrupted them: "Don't fight. Arguing won't kill you, so why don't you find another place to fight? The result will be obvious."

Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, and Li Gan: "..."

All three of them looked at Qiao Bai with complicated expressions.

I never expected this, you are actually like this, it seems we all misjudged you before.

Qiao Bai: "..."

No explanation needed.

As long as you don't let him continue doing reading comprehension exercises or treat him like a storyteller, it's fine.

"Fight if you want! It's not like I'm afraid of him!" Zou Tangshuang crossed his arms and looked at Huo Xiaotian across from him with disdain.

Huo Xiaotian also shouted in Zou Tang's direction, "Hmph! Who's afraid of who! Come on!"

Neither of them realized that Qiao Bai was stirring things up between them, directly turning the tables on the other.

Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, and Li Gan fell silent once again.

He secretly glanced at the two people with suspicion.

No?

Are you sure there's nothing seriously wrong with his brain?

Otherwise, how could they not even find the right target to strike?

"But you two should be quite familiar with each other by now, so fighting is like the left hand fighting the right. Wouldn't it be a bit boring if it's just the two of you fighting?" Qiao Bai said at this moment.

Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang didn't think there was anything wrong with what Qiao Bai said.

Qi Yue, Lin Weiwei, and Li Gan, standing to the side, felt their hearts leap into the air, sensing an ominous premonition.

"How about doubles? Qi Yue and Li Gan are evenly matched, you two can team up for doubles." The next second, my heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, finally died, and the truth was revealed.

Qiao Bai's map of the Yan Kingdom was slightly longer than they had imagined.

"Wouldn't this... be a bit inappropriate?" Huo Xiaotian asked hesitantly.

Zou Tang nodded in agreement: "It's not that we're looking down on it, but in doubles, it's better for the two players to be of similar skill levels to team up..."

"Don't worry, they're both from the combat department of Jinyang University. Their strength is about the same, and they almost got into Qingniao. They're definitely capable." Qiao Bai said calmly, then seemed to remember to ask Qi Yue and Li Gan for their opinions: "How about it? Are you guys up to the task? If not, just say so, it's okay."

Qi Yue and Li Gan: "..."

Can anyone say no at this point?

They don't know about others.

But there's absolutely no way they could do that!

Row!

It has to be done!

Okay, okay!

"Let's go! We have to get to the battlefield right now. If we don't show you our current strength, you'll really think we're weaklings!" Qi Yue and Li Gan shouted louder and louder, rolling up their sleeves and ready to rush out.

Huo Xiaotian and Zou Tang also looked very interested. Huo Xiaotian and Li Gan put their arms around each other's shoulders and talked about their pets.

Zou Tang and Qi Yue walked hand in hand, whispering to each other, with strange smiles appearing on their faces from time to time.

The only sensible and honest person at this moment, Lin Weiwei, was speechless.

What can we do?

I watched as Qiao Bai dug a pit and then kicked everyone present into it, leaving them unable to climb out for a while.

She saw it, her mind was clear, but could a weak woman like her resist Qiao Bai?

Forget it.

Anyway, Xiaoyue seemed quite happy.

"Weiwei! Come on over!" Just then, Qi Yue waved excitedly at Lin Weiwei, who was standing to the side. Zou Tang also looked at Lin Weiwei with a smile: "It's okay if you can't play. We're all girls, let's discuss it together!"

What can Lin Weiwei do?

If you can't resist, then accept it.

She walked towards Qi Yue and Zou Tang.

This is the end.

Qiao Bai closed the magazines in his hands.

……

"Huh?" As they walked, Qiao Bai realized something was wrong: "This isn't the way to the battlefield in the city center, is it?"

Jinyang City has far more battlefields than New York City.

After all, it's the provincial capital.

In addition to the influence of Bluebird University, there are even more battle arenas in the city, with the total number of battle arenas of all sizes reaching three digits.

Among them, the largest, most well-equipped, and busiest arena for beast tamers is the Battle Arena in the city center.

Qiao Bai has been there a few times, and the experience is always top-notch.

"The main arena is terribly crowded, full of Beastmasters trying to climb the rankings. I think we should switch to a smaller arena where there aren't so many people." Qi Yue said with a look of complaint, linking arms with Lin Weiwei and Zou Tang. "Climbing the rankings is so discouraging. Everyone just keeps quiet."

"Hey Qiao Bai, you..." Qi Yue suddenly stopped talking.

Qiao Bai: "?"

"No way!" Seeing the obvious confusion on Qiao Bai's face, Qi Yue didn't even have the heart to complain.

Her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Seeing this, Lin Weiwei and Zou Tang also noticed Qiao Bai's unusual behavior. The two looked at Qiao Bai curiously... and then instantly understood why Qi Yue had made that expression.

"Um... Qiao Bai, haven't you heard about the recent release of the Beast Tamer Ranking?" Zou Tang asked tentatively.

Qiao Bai shook his head: "Never heard of it."

What kind of beast tamer ranking list is this?

What ranking?

Although it wasn't as completely baffling as some kind of cryptic book, Qiao Bai genuinely had no idea what it was all about.

moment.

"It's alright, Brother Qiao, let Xiaoyue explain to you." With that, Zou Tang released Qi Yue's hand and strode aggressively towards Huo Xiaotian: "Huo Xiaotian! What are you doing dragging Brother Qiao around all day! How come Brother Qiao doesn't even know about the rankings!"

"Huh?!" Huo Xiaotian was also shocked.

Huo Xiaotian: "No, isn't this something you could find out just by paying a little attention to outside information..."

what……

Ok.

Huo Xiaotian also realized what was happening.

While Qiao Bai doesn't claim to be completely oblivious to what's happening around him, he is still somewhat out of touch with information unless specifically notified.

Then there's the matter of Old Master Huo and Altron... well, let's not go into details.

Let's give Huo Xiaotian a good beating first.

Zou Tang followed his heart's desire.

Huo Xiaotian: "..."

We are in the wrong.

They dared not retaliate.

They fled in panic, heads in their hands.

"Ah... well, never mind, I'll just go find my good son." Li Gan glanced at the scene of him running and her chasing him with no way to escape, put his hands behind his back, and strolled over to Qiao Bai like an old man.

Unlike Huo Xiaotian, who was being relentlessly pursued by Zou Tang, Qiao Bai was in a much better atmosphere.

Qi Yue and Lin Weiwei pulled Qiao Bai to sit down casually on a bench by the street. The two girls sat on either side of Qiao Bai, craning their fluffy heads towards him and whispering explanations to him.

"The Beast Tamer Ranking is indeed rare. I only heard about it from my seniors. I just didn't expect you to actually..." Qi Yue hesitated, then looked at Qiao Bai for a while before deciding to skip the topic.

Yep.

The start of the school term is a special case for Qiao Bai.

I can barely understand it.

Qiao Bai coughed twice, showing no sign of embarrassment on his face.

embarrassment?

Why feel awkward?

As long as you're not embarrassed, it's always someone else who's embarrassed.

Qiao Bai: Justified

"The Beast Tamer Ranking usually appears about six months before the registration for large, rare competitions, and it remains until the competition ends," Lin Weiwei said with a light laugh. "Although I majored in pet care, I do know a little bit about it."

"Large-scale competitions don't have that much time for preliminary rounds. Before you can register, you have to be ranked on the leaderboard. You have to be in the top 10 on the leaderboard before you can register."

Reasonable, time-saving, and quick screening.

"What kinds of rankings are there, or is there just one... ranking of strength?" Qiao Bai asked, half guessing and half reasoning.

Lists and such... that's about it, right?

Qi Yue gave Qiao Bai a look: "You seem to know a lot!"

Qiao Bai: "Ahem."

This isn't about understanding or not understanding... it's all about experience.

"There's definitely more than one list, but there are only a few that are really relevant. The first one, of course, is the list that players who want to sign up for the competition must compete on—the power ranking." As she spoke, Qi Yue's expression turned strange, as if she had thought of something that wasn't so pleasant.

Qiao Bai noticed immediately: "What's wrong?"

Qi Yue's eyes darted around, and she didn't seem very interested in discussing the matter. Lin Weiwei, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but chuckle.

Qi Yue: "..."

Qi Yue glared angrily at Lin Weiwei across Qiao Bai, while Lin Weiwei continued to laugh.

Qiao Bai: "?"

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?" Qiao Bai raised his hands and said helplessly, "I feel like I'm becoming part of your play."

Now Qi Yue and Lin Weiwei were both glaring at Qiao Bai.

"There's nothing you can't say, right, Xiaoyue?" Lin Weiwei smiled and winked at Qi Yue, then, seeing Qi Yue's dejected and resigned look, she said with a smile, "It was Xiaoyue who, after hearing about this, enthusiastically went to participate in the rankings."

"They don't even glance at other rankings, they just head straight for the power rankings, and the final result..."

Lin Weiwei didn't say anything, seemingly giving Qi Yue some face.

"Not ideal," Qiao Bai said tactfully.

"Alright, alright, stop beating around the bush and just say it straight." Qi Yue rolled her eyes, crossed her arms, and said with a disgruntled expression, "It's not just unsatisfactory, it's extremely unsatisfactory! I didn't even make the list!"

"hateful!"

fall!

Even now, when Qi Yue thinks back to the results and rankings she saw back then, she still feels like she's holding back a fire in her heart.

angry.

But I can't vent it out.

What else can you say if you're not as skilled as others?

"Not on the list?" Qiao Bai was taken aback. The Fire Fox Queen must be quite powerful, right?

After all, it is already a high-level superhuman being, and its strength of around the fourth level is not too weak. How come it is not even on the list?

"The statistics are based on the overall strength of the beast tamers, not the strength of a single pet." After a moment's thought, Qiao Bai realized what was going on.

Qi Yue nodded, looking aggrieved.

That's right.

That's it.

So far, the only pet she has contracted is the Fire Fox Queen.

While it's true that the strength of a typical fourth-tier transcendent being is inferior to that of the Fire Fox Queen, what about two? What about three?

Their combined combat strength will definitely surpass that of Qi Yue.

"Damn it! This power ranking is discriminating against freshmen like us!" Qi Yue's eyes still held a hint of resentment.

no way.

That's just Qi Yue's personality; the more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and she was filled with resentment.

After beating up Huo Xiaotian, Zou Tang carried the few bottles of juice he had just bought and walked towards Qiao Bai and the others, just in time to hear Qi Yue's words.

"Haha, a little, but not entirely." Zou Tang laughed as he distributed the juice to Qiao Bai and the other three, then opened the last bottle of Sprite in his hand. He downed a third of it in one gulp, accompanied by the sound of bubbles rising, wiped his mouth, and gave a satisfied look: "Ah—drinking carbonated drinks after sweating is so refreshing!"

Huo Xiaotian, who was being used by Zou Tang to make him sweat, was speechless.

humiliation.

But being unable to beat a girl and then being pinned to the ground and humiliated by her is even more shameful. If he were to complain... Huo Xiaotian said he simply couldn't bring himself to do something so shameless.

Qi Yue ignored the second half of Zou Tang's sentence and asked curiously, "What do you mean by 'somewhat, but not entirely'?"

"Hmm... how should I put it?" Zou Tang stroked his chin and said, "The competition corresponding to this list is the Beast Tamer Competition for Universities in the entire South China region. Just think about it and you'll know how many Beast Tamers will sign up."

Both top-tier and second-tier universities are eligible to apply.

The number of beast tamers enrolled in top-tier universities each year ranges from five hundred to several thousand, while the number of beast tamers enrolled in second-tier universities is slightly less, with a few hundred new beast tamers each year.

However, all university students are eligible to participate in the competition.

There are at least two or three hundred universities in the entire South China region, and the number of students is really not small.

"So, most of the beast tamers who can actually participate in the competition are those who are about to graduate in their third or fourth year of university. Their strength is generally on the edge of first-level beast tamers, or they are just a little short of reaching first-level beast tamers."

"The number of pets has reached three, and each of them possesses considerable strength."

"Under such circumstances, it's already extremely difficult for a sophomore to squeeze into the competition, let alone a freshman... there are very few."

after all.

The strength of a single pet is not true strength. Even the strongest pet cannot withstand a prolonged battle.

So this competition is indeed not very friendly to freshmen.

The freshmen are basically just there to accompany the team throughout the entire process.

"However, if you don't keep an eye on the combat power ranking, you should find that there is also a separate newcomer ranking. You can try your luck on that and make a name for yourself. If you make it up, other beast tamers in South China will also be able to see your ranking." Zou Tang was obviously very familiar with the ranking.

"Unlike the combat power ranking, where you only need to be in the top 10,000 to be listed, you need to be in the top 2000 of the new students to be listed."

"Got it. One is a power ranking for all university beast tamers in South China, and the other is a freshman ranking for all freshmen in South China. The latter can also be considered a potential ranking, right?" Qiao Bai nodded, looking like he knew a lot, and said, "Being able to break into the top 2000 in South China should be considered a potential star."

Zou Tang made a gesture: "That's how it is."

"Are there any benefits to being on the list, or are there any rewards?" Qiao Bai was a little tempted after hearing this.

"Yes, definitely." Huo Xiaotian chimed in at the right moment, saying, "No matter which list it is, as long as you're on the list, you'll get a different number of points depending on your ranking. These points can be used to exchange for the resources you need in the exchange shops that are temporarily opened by the country and the alliance."

"These resources are more geared towards beast tamers." Huo Xiaotian added after glancing at Qiao Bai.

Qiao Bai: "?"

Does he look like someone who is so lacking in resources for research on the evolution of pets?

It is definitely impossible.

With his current level, the resources he can obtain from the alliance are enough to support his daily research on pet evolution. He can also apply for more resources from Huangzhou if there is any excess.

Having solid achievements makes things easier.

However, Qiao Bai hadn't really had much contact with the resources that were geared towards beast tamers.

"Let's go take a look." Qiao Bai made a decisive decision.

Let's go, let's go.

Go check it out now.

Huo Xiaotian and the others exchanged glances.

go with!

We absolutely have to go!

They were also curious about what ranking Qiao Bai could achieve if he tried to climb the rankings.

As for the power rankings... Qiao Bai has already contracted three pet beasts, so maybe he can really climb up if he gives it his all?

I wouldn't say I'm very high up, but I'd at least be around eight or nine thousandth place, right?

Qi Yue thought uncertainly.

Perhaps the results could be even better?

It wasn't that Qi Yue and the others lacked confidence in Qiao Bai; it was just that after learning that the beast tamers on the list were all seniors from various schools, the pressure on them increased dramatically!

……

The huge venue was bustling with people.

Everywhere you look, there are people everywhere.

Qiao Bai and his group of six squeezed in with difficulty but successfully.

"Honestly, it feels like we're either squeezing through the crowd or on our way to squeeze in today," Qi Yue said quietly.

Qiao Bai: "That's a bit of a cold comment."

As he spoke, Qiao Bai's gaze swept around the venue.

No matter which direction you look in the huge stadium, you'll see people everywhere, but that's not necessarily the case in the air.

In mid-air, more than a hundred colorful bubbles, each large enough to hold three to five people, stood out conspicuously.

Secondly, there are large screens distributed in different locations.

The semi-virtual interface is filled with countless rankings and text flashing.

Qiao Bai glanced over and saw several lists.

[Power Ranking] [Speed ​​Rush Ranking] [Defense Ranking]

"I'm going to take a walk first." Qiao Bai greeted the others, and they waved to him.

It has to be said that once you step inside, it's hard not to be captivated by the atmosphere.

"Okay, I'd also like to see if I can make it onto the list. Let me take a look." Qi Yue had no objections.

Huo Xiaotian: "Then we'll meet up at the power rankings later."

The others also accepted the arrangement.

The six people blended into the crowd like drops of water falling into the ocean, without causing any ripples.

Qiao Bai released Xiao Wu and the cat-like insect. In the dense crowd, Xiao Wu, having suppressed its powerful aura, did not stand out much. It was quietly held in Qiao Bai's arms, looking like some unfamiliar bird pet.

On the contrary, it was the dragon horn on the cat-like insect's head.

Every now and then, people's eyes would fall on the cat-like insect.

Facing the overwhelming gazes, the cat-like insects showed no discomfort whatsoever; in fact, they proudly held their heads high.

"Chirp chirp!"

That's right!

Dragons are just that outstanding and attract so much attention!

Xiao Wu: ==

The little crow slapped its wing onto the cat-like insect's forehead.

What should I do if my little brother gets too cocky?

It's okay.

I slapped it to send its soul back.

Cat Cat Bug: QwQ

Stop floating, stop floating.

Under the boss's strong suppression, they couldn't get away with anything.

Catbug's expression still looked a little aggrieved.

This scene, witnessed by many beast tamers who had doubts about the attributes of the cat-like insect, immediately dispelled their speculations about it.

Whoops!

Whose dragon-type pet looks so weak?

It was even bullied by the other pets in the house?

Impossible, impossible.

It is absolutely impossible.

Qiao Bai ignored the stares and spent his time browsing through all the lists.

Just like Zou Tang and the others said before.

The most valuable ranking is still the [Battle Power Ranking].

Although there are many people on the list, the competition is incredibly fierce.

Secondly... there is no second, everything else is secondary.

The attack power rankings are even more detailed, divided into [Physical Attack Ranking] and [Special Attack Ranking].

There are individual leaderboards for pets of all attributes [Fire Attribute Pet Ranking], [Water Attribute Pet Ranking], and so on.

The more detailed and niche the list is, the fewer spots there are for making the list.

Qiao Bai glanced at the [Dragon Attribute Pet Ranking] and saw that only the top 300 could be listed on such a separate ranking.

You can get a reward if you make the list.

Seeing this, Qiao Bai stroked his chin: "So the alliance is encouraging people to try their best on the leaderboards they can reach. But the more Beast Tamers are on the leaderboards, the more detailed other people's understanding of them will be, and they can think ahead about how to deal with them if they encounter them in battle."

The difficulty level has naturally increased as well.

Unless a person's strength reaches a level that can overwhelm other beast tamers of the same batch, their opponents can find out their specific strength through the rankings.

"The alliance's move is truly... cunning and shrewd!"

The audience's expectations for the match were extremely high.

Viewability has increased.

Most importantly... the participating beast tamers must also constantly improve their strength, otherwise their opponents may analyze their weaknesses and vulnerabilities in advance during the battle.

Killing multiple birds with one stone!

Then Qiao Bai turned around and looked at the resources that the alliance had brought out.

call out--

Well, Qiao Bai wouldn't say his eyes lit up, but he was definitely more tempted by the beast tamer resources that could be exchanged.

The most common resource is crystals, crystals, and more crystals.

To Qiao Bai's surprise, he also saw the skill disc.

The video was recorded in a special way. As long as the disc is opened in front of the pet, the pet can see the video, and the pet's chances of learning the move or skill will be greatly increased.

Qiao Bai's assessment of this was that it was not as good as his cheat system.

How great would it be if it were taught until you learned it!

Skill videos recorded on skill discs may still have the possibility of failure in learning them, but there is absolutely no possibility of not being able to learn a skill with a cheat code.

Qiao Bai skipped this column.

The main problem is that it's too expensive.

Even if you check all the lists, you still won't be able to buy more than a dozen skill discs.

After all, burning skill discs is no easy task.

It is expensive.

Even though Qiao Bai saw one or two skills that appealed to him, he ultimately chose to give them up.

Instead, they focused their attention on the topmost and most precious batch of resources—various special medicines.

Beastmaster resources are divided into two types: one for pets and one for beastmasters. Most of the time, people are talking about the former, while the latter is extremely rare.

Resources like the golden legendary item that Qiao Bai drew, which allows both the Beastmaster and the pet to use simultaneously, are extremely rare.

The exchange shop offers special potions that Beast Tamers can use.

[Vitality Supplement (Human)]

[Mental Relaxant (Human)]

Meditation Potion (Human)

[Empathic Drug (Human)]

There are only these four types in total.

Qiao Bai's gaze swept over the first three types. The names were easy to understand: replenishing physical strength, soothing the mind, and aiding meditation.

All of these are things that beast tamers can do.

Then Qiao Bai saw the last and most special one: [Empathy Potion (Human)].

Qiao Bai clicked on the pale green potion, which seemed to radiate the light of life, to examine it.

【Empathy Potion (Human): When taken during training, it can achieve a short-term unity of mind and body between the Beastmaster and the Beast, allowing the Beastmaster to experience the Beast's perspective and communicate with it from multiple angles, thus better helping the Beast improve its strength. One dose lasts for 5 to 10 minutes.】

Qiao Bai: "?"

It sounds familiar.

Qiao Bai's eyes flickered. This potion... I need one!

Let's take another look at the required points: 800

Not too many.

If you want to climb the [battle power ranking], as long as you can reach the 3000th rank, you can buy this potion.

Different rankings have different scoring rules.

The [Power Ranking] remains the simplest, clearest, and most straightforward.

From bottom to top, the points earned are doubled for every thousand people ranked.

Those ranked 9001-10000 will receive 10 points for making the list.

Those ranked 8001-9000 will receive 20 points for making the list.

Those ranked 7001-8000 will receive 40 points for making the list.

Similarly, those ranked 3001-4000 will receive 640 points.

Then, starting from rank 2001-3000, you can get 1000 points.

You can earn 1500 points by completing 1001-2000.

The points for the top 1000 players increase progressively.

Those ranked 901-1000 will receive 1600 points.

Those ranked 801-900 will receive 1700 points.

The higher the ranking, the more points you get.

Except for the few points awarded to the top 100 who will be distributed after the ranking competition ends, all other points will be awarded as soon as you make the list. Even if you are overtaken by other challengers later, it doesn't matter; the points you have already received are yours.

The top 100 will receive 2000 points in advance. If they are overtaken by others, they will only receive 2000 points. If they are not overtaken, the remaining points will be settled.

Very generous.

Very generous.

Very human-centered.

It's practically saying outright—come and challenge us, come and challenge us now, the benefits are huge!

As expected of the Beast Taming Alliance, they are truly generous!

Qiao Bai stroked his chin and stood below the [Battle Power Ranking], examining the names on it.

The first thing I looked at was naturally the name at the top of the [Battle Power Ranking].

Su Fang, a senior at Water Beaver University, has the following pets: Ice Mandarin Duck, Long-finned Sea Demon, Two-headed Jade Entangle, and Colorful Patterned Qilin Fish, with a combat power of 93125.

Keep reading.

Fan Dongyang, a senior at Nanfeng University, has pets Spring Vine, Miss Wood Spirit, Mumu Demon, and Wind Group. His combat power is 84991.

The top two players had combat power values ​​of around 9 and 8 respectively, but starting from the third place, the combat power value dropped directly to around 6, which can be described as a precipitous decline.

The numbers get smaller as you look down.

"Why are these two so much stronger than the others?" Qiao Bai turned to a stranger who was crowding next to him and asked politely.

The young man was not intimidated.

Curiosity, you know.

Everyone has one.

He sized Qiao Bai up and down for a few moments, then said in a very certain tone, "You're a freshman at Bluebird this year?"

"How did you figure that out?" Qiao Bai asked curiously.

As his face gradually became famous, Qiao Bai didn't wear a mask when he went out, but he still wore a pair of glasses.

eye.

A powerful tool for concealing one's identity.

Once you bring it along, no one will recognize you.

Countless predecessors have proven him right.

The unfamiliar young man standing in front of Qiao Bai did not recognize Qiao Bai. He only felt that Qiao Bai looked vaguely familiar, but after looking at him a few more times, he was sure that it was his imagination.

"I'm from Jinyang University, a senior this year. There aren't many beast tamers here, so you'll get used to it after looking around a bit," the young man Meng Ke said with a smile.

At the same time, his gaze swept over Xiao Wu and Maomaochong in Qiao Bai's arms: "I haven't seen these two pets of yours before, so I'm sure you're a freshman at Qingniao University this year."

"So these two people..." Qiao Bai pointed to the [Battle Power Ranking], not forgetting the question he wanted to ask.

Meng Ke coughed twice.

Having guessed the junior's identity, he became slightly smug.

"Hey, almost every senior knows these two, Su Fang and Fan Dongyang. You can tell by the number of pets they have."

"The others only have three pet beasts, and their strength is roughly around the first-level beast tamer level, or they are close to it."

"These two are different. They're just a little short of becoming second-tier beast tamers." As he spoke, a clear look of envy appeared on Meng Ke's face.

Qiao Bai glanced at it a couple more times.

envious.

But there was no jealousy.

He seemed to have decent character, so Qiao Bai chatted with him for a bit longer: "Isn't it unfair for a second-tier beast tamer to participate in the competition?"

"What's unfair about this?" Meng Ke rolled his eyes without any politeness. He glanced at Qiao Bai and still felt that Qiao Bai looked a little familiar.

He looked at the distinctive dragon horns on the cat-like insect's head, thought for a moment, and then said to Qiao Bai earnestly, "Beastmasters are all about strength."

"Their near-second-tier beast tamer strength is their own achievement. They're university students just like the other contestants, only a bit stronger. Why can't they participate in the competition?"

"If they were really going to suspend these two, that would be truly unfair!"

Qiao Bai nodded.

That's definitely true.

Where in this world can there be absolute fairness?

They didn't cheat.

It's just that I'm good at it.

"How do I do it if I want to take on the challenge? I just need to enter those bubbles, right?" Qiao Bai pointed to the colorful bubbles floating in mid-air.

Meng Ke: "?"

"No?" Meng Ke looked at the new student he had only chatted with for a few minutes in shock: "Are you sure... you want to challenge this list?"

"Actually, I suggest you try for the [Newcomer Ranking], it's more favorable."

Meng Ke spoke sincerely to Qiao Bai.

I don't know why.

Meng Ke didn't consider himself a warm-hearted person, but after seeing Qiao Bai, he inexplicably felt a good impression of her.

Not wanting to see yet another young man suffer a setback, Meng Ke kindly offered this reminder.

However, Qiao Bai's expression did not change at all.

[New Student Ranking]?

Well……

Although, but.

Qiao Bai was fairly aware of his own abilities.

Let's just aim for the [Battle Power Ranking].

Leave some room for other college students to survive; don't let them be hit too hard.

"I sincerely suggest you try to climb the [Newcomer Ranking]. If you can get into the top three, then consider coming back to try the [Combat Power Ranking]. Otherwise, this blow will be quite significant..."

Meng Ke felt that he could understand Qiao Bai's thoughts.

They're new students, after all.

They always think they are very capable and are eager to test their skills against experts.

The problem is that strength is something that needs to be accumulated.

How could they, who had only contracted one or two pet beasts, possibly be a match for those senior beast tamers who were well-versed in all aspects?

Meng Ke's gaze swept over the two pet beasts in Qiao Bai's arms: "You've contracted two pet beasts. You should be considered a genius in the Azure Bird combat system, right?"

Geniuses are the ones who are most easily crushed and unable to recover!

Thinking back, I've been used to a life that's been smooth sailing for the first half of my life.

Suddenly finding myself in a different environment, I realized I wasn't as awesome as I'd imagined...

"I'm not a combat major," Qiao Bai said with a smile. "I'm a pet evolution major."

Qiao Bai's words stunned Meng Ke.

The question mark on Meng Ke's face was almost solidified.

"Ah...ah! Is that so!" Meng Ke stammered.

How... how should I put this?

Meng Ke's expression shifted, revealing an indescribable inner conflict: "In that case... if you want to try, then go ahead."

"Life is about trying things out!" Meng Ke's expression hardened at the end. He patted Qiao Bai on the shoulder and said encouragingly, "I believe you can definitely achieve a result that satisfies you!"

As for whether or not it will make the list...

cough cough.

One should have a long-term perspective and not overthink things.

Qiao Bai smiled and said, "Then thank you for your blessings."

"Go ahead!" Looking at Qiao Bai's innocent and naive college student appearance, Meng Ke couldn't help but feel a special sense of responsibility as a senior student.

Did the junior student come alone?
