Chapter 297: Preparing for the Competition! Intense Discussions
After Ling Zhan walked out of the guild hall.
He handed three Holy Light Crystals to the blue-haired girl.
"Your employment task is over."
Hearing this sentence.
The blue-haired girl quickly bowed to Ling Zhan, expressing her gratitude, and then disappeared into the crowd.
Ling Zhan did not follow but said calmly, "Mr. Funo, my platinum-level VIP card should qualify me to mobilize your guild's guards, right?"
"Of course, Mr. Ling, that's possible."
Funo nodded gracefully.
For adventurers who attain VIP status, the Eden Guild undoubtedly provides various services.
Whether in terms of living or security, there are corresponding benefits.
"Then send some stronger people to watch over that blue-haired girl."
"Do not let her notice, just observe secretly. I will come back in five days to handle something."
After saying this, Ling Zhan stepped onto the teleportation array, leaving the city known as the "Adventurer's Paradise," the City of Dark Light.
...
...
Over the next two days.
Ling Zhan stayed in that extremely luxurious and splendid magical manor.
He was almost in a state of absolute seclusion for training.
Even Meng Shuang, Yun Man, and Chang Yue, the three divine beasts, were forcibly dragged into harsh combat training by Ling Zhan.
It is worth mentioning that although Meng Shuang is the youngest among the three divine beast children.
Her level is now the highest, at level 61.
Her strength has seen a significant increase.
This naturally came from the great benefits of devouring the Black Flame Holy Dragon's spine.
However...
Compared to Ling Zhan's changes, this was still insignificant.
When the three divine beasts greeted Ling Zhan upon his return.
Seeing the terrifying power aura almost overflowing from Ling Zhan, they were all startled!
Using the "Eye of Appraisal" to look.
The three beautiful faces, each with their own charm, simultaneously showed a look of disbelief!
Level 58!!
This guy went out in the morning and came back in the evening.
In just one day, his level had soared to 58!!
This...
What exactly did he do!?
Such leveling speed has completely broken the world record!
More importantly...
Now, this master gives them an extreme sense of danger, as if he could kill them with one punch!
Meng Shuang, who had regained her confidence due to her own strength surge, now had a face full of wry smiles.
She originally thought of challenging her master again to see how much of a gap remained...
Now, forget it, challenging is pointless!
...
Over the next two days, Ling Zhan and his three divine beasts spent time in this high-intensity training.
On the third morning.
Ling Zhan got up at six o'clock as scheduled and quickly completed the daily challenge tasks given by the system.
After a simple wash, Meng Shuang, Yun Man, and Chang Yue all put on their valiant battle skirts.
In his team uniform, Ling Zhan could vaguely sense the bustling excitement outside.
When Ling Zhan brought his three divine beasts to the square of the magical manor.
Teams from various countries and races were already gathered here, their conversations rising and falling, very lively.
Soon, the contestants from various countries would be collectively teleported from here to the Royal Arena.
Dragon Kingdom's preparation area.
Principal Zhou Hongfu was already waiting for the national contestants to take their places.
Li Chaoge, Xue Ming, Shou Jingyuan, and Situ Bingling, the four solo competition contestants, had already arrived here.
The other dozens of team competition members were also in place.
It is worth mentioning that...
Except for Shou Jingyuan.
The other three solo competition contestants had brought their divine beasts with them.
Today, Li Chaoge had tied her three thousand strands of black hair into a ponytail, revealing her breathtakingly beautiful face.
The full-figured and mature Nine-tailed Sky Fox stood beside her, like two blooming roses competing with each other.
Xue Ming, a boy with a cold temperament, stood with a detached expression, arms crossed.
His contracted divine beast, the "Heaven-swallowing Python," ranked 42nd on the divine beast list. Its human form was a shirtless, dark-skinned strongman with snake-like eyes, exuding a unique coldness.
Situ Yalan, Situ Bingling's elder sister, had a similar temperament and appearance, with an icy blue magical aura around her.
Her contracted divine beast was the "Ice Crystal Snow Phoenix," ranked 37th on the divine beast list. Its human form was a tall woman in an icy blue dress, with long snowy blue hair like Situ Yalan.
As for Shou Jingyuan...
Without a divine beast willing to contract with him, he did not summon his own magical beast.
Additionally...
After contracting magical beasts or spirit beasts, the contractor would open a "Beast Storage Slot," similar to an "internal space" for storing items.
The "Beast Storage Slot" could store magical beasts and spirit beasts, allowing the contractor to summon them during battles.
However, divine beasts cannot be stored in the Beast Storage Slot.
Or rather, they absolutely refuse to be.
Because for noble divine beasts, being confined like livestock in a cage is an insult.
Therefore, it was clear that many contestants were alone.
Only a few top geniuses had divine beasts accompanying them.
The reactions to Ling Zhan's appearance varied.
Shou Jingyuan, needless to say, had eyes filled with endless resentment.
But at the same time, he had to bite his teeth and endure due to his fear of this powerful non-specialist.
Although arrogant, he was not foolish.
He knew that in the dungeon siege, he was instantly defeated by this non-specialist.
However, he felt that it was his negligence that led to such a quick and miserable defeat.
If he had been more vigilant, the opponent might not have been able to defeat him.
Xue Ming and Situ Yalan were keenly observing Ling Zhan.
Li Chaoge just nodded to Ling Zhan, considered as a greeting.
The Nine-tailed Sky Fox even smiled charmingly at Ling Zhan.
When other contestants from various countries saw Ling Zhan, they instantly stopped talking, and their piercing gazes focused on this non-specialist.
"This non-specialist... It is said that he made a big move in the dungeon yesterday!"
"What big move?"
"Are you that uninformed? This non-specialist speed-cleared the dungeon from floors 1 to 100!"
"What's so surprising about that? Any top genius from a strong nation can speed-clear, right?"
"That's different!"
"How is it different?"
"This guy not only took all the monster materials, items, and experience from floors 1 to 100 but also broke Princess Saint Luni's record!"
"What!?"
"How is that possible!"
"Are you kidding, brother!"
"..."
Sure enough...
The news of Ling Zhan breaking Princess Saint Luni's record quickly spread.
It caused quite a stir and intense discussions.
Even top geniuses like Norton, Albert, and Gojo Momoka were now collectively focusing their attention on the aloof and indifferent figure of the non-specialist.
