When Ling Zhan and the others no longer felt the disorienting sensation of falling and weightlessness from the space tunnel and saw light again, it meant they had arrived at their destination for reinforcements.
Dianzhou Province, Yanyang City.
This city is named 'Yanyang' because it is known for a deliciously edible domesticated magical beast.
The name of this beast is 'Blue Crystal Magic Rock Sheep.'
This magical beast has blue crystal-like horns, which resemble crystal gemstones, but are actually materials that can be refined into elixirs.
After being ground into powder, it is one of the necessary materials for making restorative elixirs.
Moreover, its wool is of better quality than that of ordinary domesticated sheep, and its meat is exceptionally tender.
Occasionally, a 'Red Crystal Magic Rock Sheep' is born among these domesticated magical beasts, which is the finest of its kind. Many gourmet enthusiasts are willing to spend a fortune just to acquire a Red Crystal Magic Rock Sheep.
Although the presence of the Blue Crystal Magic Rock Sheep has made the livestock industry very prosperous here, other aspects are not as developed.
When Ling Zhan and the others walked out of the simple open-air teleportation point.
Perhaps because it was dusk, the first impression of the city was summed up in two words: desolate.
Yes.
A city that gave a sense of desolation.
It's not that the city was uninhabited, on the contrary, it was.
But it gave a feeling of being difficult to rise and develop.
The outer walls of every building were quite old, with many covered in moss, fungal mats, and vines.
Some areas were visibly in ruins, bearing the marks of long ages.
In fact, Ling Zhan had heard of Dianzhou Province.
This province was in a poor situation; the backwardness of its educational resources and the strength of its job transfer capabilities meant that its universities hardly had students from other provinces.
And the outstanding talents from this province also enrolled in top schools outside the province to seek a better environment.
In reality, this desolate scene could be easily changed by inviting a few master architects to transform the desolate appearance completely.
But in reality, such a transformation would be useless; it would beautify the exterior, but the inside would still be decayed.
At this moment, Ling Zhan finally understood why the Demon Arrival Organization was fixated on this province.
At this time, a middle-aged man approached with an extremely polite welcoming smile on his face.
"Teacher Cao, I've been looking forward to your arrival!"
The middle-aged man shook hands warmly with the leading teacher, Cao Guanlin.
This middle-aged man was named Lu Wei, the head of the local war zone, and also a Level 41 second-tier expert.
When he saw this group of students, all exuding an aura of being above Level 40 second-tier, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
No wonder they are from the top ten prestigious schools!
Any one of them could be a war zone leader in Dianzhou Province.
Of course...
The Dragon Kingdom's officials would never allow the prodigies from key schools to waste their time in city war zones.
The true battlefield for these prodigies was the front line of the Ten Thousand Demons Cavern!
Lu Wei hurriedly led Ling Zhan and the others to the reception area.
It was the only three-star hotel worth mentioning in Yanyang City.
All the teams who came to reinforce were arranged to stay here.
Also, tonight there would be a banquet held at the hotel for the demon-slaying teams from various schools to interact, and for the teachers and local war zone leaders to share information about the Demon Arrival Organization.
"You humans are really something, the Demon Arrival Organization is rampant, yet you still have the mind for banquets and feasts..."
Yun Man, next to Ling Zhan, couldn't help but complain.
Chang Yue and Meng Shuang beside her also looked puzzled.
They didn't have so many convoluted thoughts; in this situation, exchanging information and then directly starting the extermination action would be enough, wouldn't it?
Why bother with a banquet?
Ling Zhan gently shook his head and said calmly, "You don't understand..."
They really didn't understand.
There were indeed many twists and turns in this.
It's important to note that in this world, most of the population among all races are ordinary people! (Even in the Giant Race, there are those who cannot change jobs, having only a large physique without the ability to change jobs. In any case, the majority of each race is made up of ordinary people.)
Job-changers only make up about 30% of the population!
Do you think this banquet and the accommodations are held because the local war zone leaders want to?
Wouldn't they also prefer to exchange information directly and then start the killing?
But the local rich won't allow it!
All the expenses for this banquet and accommodation are borne by the local wealthy.
They will also take this opportunity to arrange for their family members to interact and establish connections with these prodigies.
Don't think it's exaggerated.
In fact, in this world, every third-tier or even fourth-tier expert has a team of wealthy individuals providing comprehensive services for them.
They provide all 'legal and compliant' conveniences for these experts' lives, including forging, enchanting, elixirs, and so on.
And these experts in turn become the 'protective umbrellas' for these wealthy individuals.
Of course, this 'protective umbrella' doesn't mean they can bully and oppress people.
It means ensuring they won't suffer unfair or cruel treatment from others.
It's a cooperative relationship between them.
At this moment, someone might argue. (This chapter is necessary for background introduction)
Saying that with their strength, they can do whatever they want, have whatever they want, so why would they need to cooperate with ordinary wealthy people?
In that case, let me talk to you about the latest 'Dragon Kingdom Laws on Restraining Job-Changers.'
Every country has relevant restraint regulations for job-changers, with serious consequences for violators.
Without such regulations, the world would have fallen into chaos long ago.
Therefore.
No matter in which world.
The concept of 'human sentiments' still exists.
And when Ling Zhan and the others were checking in.
In the combat training ground exclusively set up by this three-star hotel.
A third-year student from another school rushed in excitedly, shouting, "They're here! The team from Tianyan Academy is here!"
"So what if they're here? What's the big deal?"
"Aren't they just from a prestigious school? Hmph! I'll surpass them sooner or later!"
"Look at you, is someone from a prestigious school your dad? Why are you so excited!"
Third-year students from second and third-rate schools who were also here to reinforce couldn't help but sneer sourly.
Meanwhile, other third-year students from prestigious schools training here smiled faintly.
A sense of superiority naturally arose.
Too lazy to bother with these sour people.
But...
The next words from the shouting student made everyone unsettled!
"Listen to me! That non-specialist who has been causing a huge stir recently is here too! How can I not be excited!"
Hmm!?
What!!
That damned non-specialist actually dared to come to participate in the demon-slaying action!?
Swoosh!!
In an instant.
All the third-year students who were originally training became like hungry wolves seeing meat, their eyes flashing with fierce light!!
"Damn it! That useless kid! We didn't go looking for him, and he dared to come on his own!"
"What's that! A non-specialist dares to sneak into the monster competition!"
"Go! Let's go teach him a lesson!!"
