Chapter 620: Insect Fighting Conference
The group marched towards the insect fighting venue in a mighty manner, attracting the attention of countless students along the way, and soon someone recognized Bai Qi's identity.
"Look, isn't that Bai Qi?"
"Are you living in a dream? Everyone knows that Bai Qi will come to our college for exchanges today."
"Of course I know that, but with so many professors coming out to greet us, Bai Qi is indeed a role model for our younger generation!"
"We? The younger generation? Can you be a little thicker-skinned? You are embarrassed to put yourself in the same category as Bai Qi. I am embarrassed."
"What's wrong? At least they're about the same age, right?"
"Heh~ In terms of age, Bai Qi is only a sophomore, and you are already a senior, but you are still only a third-level beastmaster, with no achievements in blood studies. You are destined to go out and become a social animal, and then..."
"Stop talking. I admit that I am a loser. I am only fit to be with Paramecium..."
Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Zhuge Chen smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you really put a lot of pressure on your peers~"
"Pressure? Any?"
Bai Qi rolled his eyes at Zhuge Chen and said, "At least I don't see you feeling any pressure."
"I have completely given up struggling. If I get involved with you, the only one who will get hurt is me."
Zhuge Chen looked like he had let it go and said, "Besides, there is nothing to compare between a Spirit Tamer and a Beast Tamer."
"Yes, the growth method of a Spirit Tamer is indeed different from that of a Beast Tamer."
Bai Qi nodded slightly. Although the Spirit Tamer had gradually developed his own special abilities, such as the space within the Spirit Tamer Ball, the binding curse and the like, from a long-term perspective, the Beast Tamer was still better.
"But, I remember that a spirit master can contract six pets at the same time, right? Why do you still only have three?"
Bai Qi looked at Zhuge Chen in confusion and asked.
"I know, but I'm not in a hurry anyway. Let's take our time."
Zhuge Chen smiled faintly, with a Buddhist look on his face.
"You are really calm."
Bai Qi couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, then he suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, are you interested in contracting a bug-type pet here? Something like a rhinoceros beetle that can discharge electricity..."
"A rhinoceros beetle that can discharge electricity?"
After hearing Bai Qi's words, Zhuge Chen became more confused.
"Bai Qi, have you found any excellent insect pets here ? I don't mind, but this is their academy after all. They won't let outsiders like us make contracts with such excellent insect pets, right?"
"It's okay, as long as you agree to the contract."
Bai Qi grinned. He already had the Tyrannosaurus, the Ice Wolf, and the Fire Bird, so how could he miss the Electric Bug? They were all chosen children, so they had to be together.
"Dean Bai, we're here."
Yang Ming, who was leading the way, stopped and pointed to a circular building in front of him that looked like a gladiatorial arena. He said, "This is the venue for the Insect Fighting Conference. The competition should have already started. Let's go in first."
"OK."
Bai Qi nodded slightly and followed Yang Ming in, while watching the battle inside from the window beside the passage with curiosity on his face.
Unlike the arena that Bai Qi had expected, the venue of the insect fighting conference was actually filled with large pits similar to the one in the Poisonous Gu Valley used to raise poisonous insects, and one by one, beastmasters were driving their pets to fight seriously.
"Most of the insect-type beastmasters in our Cang Zhe Academy will develop poison-type skills. This structure is also to prevent the venom from flowing around and causing unnecessary damage."
Yang Ming explained at the right time and led a group of people to the main observation room.
"Dean Bai, you're here."
Seeing Bai Qi appear, Lin Fugui immediately smiled. He stood up to greet him and looked Bai Qi up and down with slightly narrowed eyes, causing Bai Qi to shrink back unconsciously.
This look is really unbearable!
"Well, I'm sorry for being a little late and keeping the two legends waiting."
Bai Qi bowed slightly, but Lin Fugui didn't care at all. He glanced at the old professors behind Bai Qi, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
"The competition has just begun. Dean Bai, you've arrived at the right time."
Lin Fugui shook his head and said, "I was just planning to let the Tomb Keeper Legend comment on the younger generation of our Cang Zhe Academy. Dean Bai, you are here too, why don't you join us?"
"I'll just forget about it and listen to the two legends."
Bai Qi waved his hands repeatedly. Although he thought he had decent talent and could barely beat a group of people, when it came to commentary, he still couldn't compare with these two veteran legends.
Seeing this, the two did not force it, but just invited Bai Qi to sit next to them and watch the insect fighting competition together.
The Insect Fighting Competition, as the name suggests, will feature all kinds of insect pets, which are graded according to their levels. And unlike other competitions, there will be dozens of insect-type beastmasters competing in each arena of this Insect Fighting Competition.
"This really has become a way to raise insects."
Looking at the insect pets that were beaten and sent out of the arena with broken limbs, Bai Qi clicked his tongue.
This kind of rough competition method can probably only be used by insect-type creatures with strong recovery ability, who do not take broken legs seriously.
"The fight between insects is inherently the most brutal. The Cang Zhe Academy's Insect Fighting Competition is also to ensure the bloodiness of our young beast masters. Otherwise, we will be at a great disadvantage when we encounter the tribe in the future."
Lin Fugui explained with a smile: "However, compared with the large insect species of the Yixiu family, the small insect species of our Cangzhe Academy are still at a disadvantage in a head-on war. I hope that the Tomb Guardian Legend will send someone to give us some guidance."
"President Lin is too modest. The diverse insect-type creatures in Cangzhe College are something that our Yixiu family envies. The Yixiu family also hopes to expand the insect-type creature resource library."
"Hahaha...of course."
The two smiled at each other and reached a deal silently. After Zhuge Chen saw that the two stopped talking, he unconsciously leaned over to Liu Bi and asked.
"Uncle Liu, don't we need to participate in this deal? From what Bai Qi said, they should really want to cooperate with us, right?"
Liu Bi smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "The Cang Zhe College had already mentioned the cooperation invitation to the dean yesterday. If we mention it again today, they will be very passive and naturally will not take the initiative to mention it again."
"I see."
Zhuge Chen suddenly understood what he said and said, "So they are waiting for us to take the initiative to propose cooperation?"
"Of course, and from a certain perspective, we do need the resources of Cang Zhe College."
Liu Bi nodded, and looked at Yang Ming who was reporting something to Lin Fugui. His narrowed eyes revealed a gleam of light, and he said, "Originally, we might have to give up some benefits to propose cooperation, but now, we just need to wait for them."
Hearing this, Zhuge Chen immediately understood.
No wonder Liu Bi asked Bai Qi to ride on Cordyceps to Cangzhe Academy. It was just to let them witness the Cordyceps's insect-dragon shape.
As long as they see the form of Cordyceps that perfectly fits the long-cherished wish of the first president of Cangzhe Academy, there will be a problem for Cangzhe Academy to remain standing.
Now, the initiative is in their hands.
After figuring out the key, Zhuge Chen looked at Liu Bi with more admiration in his eyes.
The reason why his father Zhuge Xu sent him to the Bingyu branch was not only to help him understand the situation of the Bingyu branch, but also to let him and Liu Bei learn business.
Liu Bei must have his strengths to be able to manage a gym and a consortium at the same time, and to cultivate to the level of a sixth-level beastmaster.
The insect fighting competition was in full swing, and the group was watching very seriously, without making a sound.
Finally, when Bai Qi was getting a little bored, Lin Fugui finally spoke up and said, "We're about to compete for the championship of this insect fighting competition. Dean Bai, who do you think will win?"
"Um?"
Bai Qi woke up as if from a dream, and the six-sided rune that he was sketching in his mind suddenly disappeared.
As the Cordyceps evolved, Bai Qi felt that his mental strength and physical fitness were further strengthened. He could even feel the distance between himself and the legendary level.
It was for this reason that he had been pondering the Emperor of Magic's experience since last night. Even when it was inconvenient to take out the Emperor of Magic's experience, he was still deducing the possible runes in his mind.
The secret tower must be designed and built as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a big loss if the upgrade is delayed because the secret tower is not built well.
As for the game, he simply stopped watching after watching it for a while.
The highest rank among those present was only a fourth-rank Beast Tamer, and although there were indeed many types of insect pets, there was really nothing to see.
"Sure enough, these battles are a bit easier for Dean Bai."
Lin Fugui was not surprised to see this, and said, "It just so happens that almost all the students from Cang Zhe College are here today. Why don't Dean Bai go down and give some pointers?"
"Shall I give you instructions?"
The corner of Bai Qi's eyes twitched slightly. He really had to go on the field. However, these were all low- and middle-level beastmasters. Wasn't it a bit too much for him to go on the field?
"Master Bai Qi, are you worried about the level? It's okay. My old bones haven't been moved for a long time. In order to avoid rusting, I will go down with Master Bai to exercise a little."
At this moment, Lin Wumu suddenly stood up and took the initiative to invite someone to a fight.
"Uh, isn't this a bad idea?"
Bai Qi looked at Lin Wumu, who was old enough to be his grandfather, and hesitated.
"Don't worry about my age. Since this is a battle between beastmasters, everything will be decided by level."
Lin Wumu raised his head, a sense of determination rising from him.
"Although I have focused on academics in recent years, I am also a sixth-level master. I can still fight with young people like you, Master Bai Qi."
"Also, I also want to see how much combat power Master Bai Qi can unleash from that... Blue Sun Dream Dragon."
Hearing Lin Wumu's words, Bai Qi became more helpless, and Lin Fugui was obviously happy about it. He said, "I just heard that Master Bai Qi has cultivated a worm dragon. It's a good opportunity to open our eyes."
"I also want to see how much your pet will change in just one night, Bai Qi."
Seeing that the legendary tomb keeper had also spoken, Bai Qi could only agree reluctantly. However, after seeing Lin Wumu's trembling appearance, he still felt a little scared.
If something happens, he won't be blamed, right? But don't let him come here to make trouble.
