Resurrection Era 984, January 1st, Da Feng Novel Network
Today, countless people eagerly awaited, gathered before their televisions.
In the business districts of most cities, huge virtual screens were hung, with crowds of pedestrians gathered below.
Everyone was excited, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Today was the national Beast Tamer Competition finals!
But if there was one place that was the most excited, it was Nanjiang City!
The entire city, regardless of age or gender, was waiting for the competition to begin.
Their eyes were filled with pride, feeling that the people of Nanjiang City had risen!
Who would have thought that the national champions and runners-up would come from such a small city?
In the auditorium of Nanjiang No. 2 High School, it was already packed.
Even though it was New Year's Day, the students had voluntarily come to school to witness this historic moment!
At the front of the auditorium, Shen Wushuang clenched his fists, his expression incredibly excited.
He hadn't expected the two students he mentored to achieve so much, to have fought their way through and reached the finals.
"It seems our Nanjiang No. 2 High School truly has geniuses!"
The portly principal said, his eyes crinkled with laughter.
The Ministry of Education had already promised the school significant teaching resources, and this would continue for a full ten years.
It would be difficult for No. 2 High School *not* to become the number one high school in Nanjiang City.
He smiled and said, "Old Shen, how do you feel now?"
"It's all within my expectations! Are my students ordinary people?"
Shen Wushuang's lips curled. He had expected them to achieve something, but he hadn't anticipated this level of success.
Most importantly, they were both still young, and no one could predict their future paths.
At this moment, Shen Wushuang's gaze fell upon a girl beside him, his eyes shining.
"Teacher, what kind of look is that?!"
Wang Qingxue's expression jolted, a bad premonition rising in her heart. Her right hand instinctively clutched a urea bag.
"It's nothing, nothing!"
Seeing this, Shen Wushuang's expression changed instinctively, but then he continued with a smile:
"Qingxue, how about we join the special training class earlier?"
For the first time, he felt that the urea bag was so appealing, as if he were seeing Chen Shu and Fang Si in their early days.
Since Chen Shu thought highly of her, Wang Qingxue's talent must be exceptional. With proper cultivation, she could become another peerless genius!
Wang Qingxue spoke, "Teacher, I haven't even awakened a contract spirit yet. What's the point of coming to the special training class?"
"Who said the special training class requires a contract spirit!"
Shen Wushuang's expression turned serious, saying, "Come every day to collect some rewards, and save them for later use!"
"..."
The surrounding students twitched their lips. Was that fair?
This wasn't just giving special treatment; it was like handing over the entire kitchen!
...
Besides Nanjiang No. 2 High School, Chen Shu's other acquaintances were also eagerly anticipating today's competition.
Ye Qing, who was guarding the [Blazing Volcano], specifically left the alien space and brought the Spirit Suppression Army back to the small town, leaving only some reconnaissance personnel.
"This kid!"
Ye Qing's lips curved into a smile, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. He hadn't expected them to grow so quickly.
The Spirit Suppression Army felt the same, all remembering the former ruffians who used to brag about King-grade materials.
...
In Huaxia Academy, Qin Tian was also intently watching the screen ahead, waiting for the finals to begin.
The students within felt the same. The thought that Chen Shu was their alumnus filled their eyes with pride.
Although Chen Shu could be quite unreasonable, the honor he brought to the academy was immense!
In addition, the Spirit Suppression Bureau of Nanjiang City, Nanjiang City's 'Best Beast Tamer Dojo', Daxing City's 'Spirit Fighting Arena', various black market shops, and so on.
Despite Chen Shu having been blacklisted by various parties, countless people were still hoping for him to win the championship.
...
At this moment, on Sacred Beast Island.
Thousands of people had gathered around the competition stage, awaiting the start of the match.
The host, filled with excitement, was introducing the information of the two contestants, focusing on their relationship.
Just then, her body trembled. With a glance to the side,
She saw Chen Shu and Fang Si had appeared behind her, looking at her with smiles.
Although they hadn't made any moves, the host felt as if they were a sharp presence at her back.
Having two ruffians standing behind her was indeed a very dangerous move...
Out of instinctive fear, she decisively announced the start of the match!
The two walked to their respective combat positions. In terms of their expressions and demeanor, they were somewhat similar.
At this moment, they had both summoned their contract spirits.
Fang Si's three Dragon-type contract spirits were filled with fighting spirit.
"Gijigij!"
The Slime's eyes were dazed as it looked at its master.
It had seen the Crimson Flame Dragon and the Frost Dragon and didn't understand why it had to fight them.
As for the Crimson Flame Dragon, it wore a look of unfamiliarity.
Xiao Huang's transformation was too drastic; it was as if it had been inflated. Who could recognize it?
Above the competition stage,
Chen Qinghai and the other two were watching the competition stage intently.
"There are too many geniuses this year!"
Ye Yu shook his head, a hint of admiration in his eyes. He hadn't predicted that the finals would be between Chen Shu and Fang Si.
"It's a shame about Wang Sheng and the others!"
Chen Qinghai said. In fact, the top geniuses this year were not significantly different in strength. At least, their contract spirits were similar, with no one clearly outperforming the others.
Victory would depend on counters, personal combat experience, and a bit of luck.
"I haven't just watched our country's competitions; I've also watched the matches in other countries."
Liu Feng said calmly, "There are indeed too many geniuses in this era."
"Will there be a change?"
Chen Qinghai murmured, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
The abundance of Beast Tamer geniuses represented humanity's advancement in strength.
But from another perspective, it seemed to herald a great tribulation for the era.
Beneath the veneer of prosperity, perhaps an unprecedented crisis lurked!
"Is there a possibility."
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "That the source of the tribulation will be one of them..."
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qinghai was stunned.
Immediately, the two of them looked at Liu Feng simultaneously, their gazes filled with deep meaning.
"Stop spouting nonsense..."
Liu Feng chuckled dryly. "You two really are something, your ability to make connections is so good."
But the next second, he fell into contemplation.
Throwing nuclear bombs randomly probably wasn't a tribulation, was it?
