Chen Shu's eyes widened, staring blankly at the rewards above, falling into a moment of silence.
"Huh? Chen Shu, you're not having an episode?"
A Liang and the other two looked over, finding themselves unaccustomed to it.
"What are you talking about?"
Chen Shu pouted and said confidently, "I've got this championship in the bag!"
A Liang said seriously, "It won't be that easy. Wang Sheng and Ji Feng are not to be trifled with!"
"I don't believe a human body can withstand a nuclear bomb!"
"..."
A Liang and the other two were filled with panic and couldn't help but distance themselves.
"Big brother, this is a Beast Tamer competition, why on earth are you throwing nuclear bombs?"
"True Treasures, flesh and blood, Golden King Skills..."
Chen Shu, dressed in a blue shirt and wearing a red baseball cap, clenched his right fist and said with a smile,
"I want them all!"
"..."
A Liang's mouth twitched as he said, "Actually, the most important thing is the World Championship qualification!"
"Of course I know that!"
Chen Shu said seriously, "It's related to my nuclear bomb permit, I must participate in the World Championship!"
"What permit?"
A Liang and the other two widened their eyes, feeling that this guy was a bit obsessed.
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you!"
Chen Shu shook his head and muttered, "I need to prepare properly!"
Xu Xingxing spoke, "Don't be careless. Most of the contestants in the Hegemony Tournament are Silver Two-star. You're at a slight disadvantage!"
"It's fine, I estimate I'll break through soon."
Chen Shu waved his hand, not paying much attention.
He swallowed a King True Pearl, and his Beast Taming power surged. Coupled with recent training (sleeping), he was just a step away from Silver Two-star.
Chen Shu asked, "By the way, what about the rewards for your Black Iron Tier group?"
"They're all similar, just Black Iron Tier treasures."
A Liang's eyes also showed excitement. He was determined to win the Black Iron Tier rewards.
The three of them had been eating Beast Taming True Pearls daily and were now Black Iron Three-star in strength.
To secure a good ranking, their families had provided them with additional resources.
The four of them began to fantasize about how they would use their rewards.
The wooden house was filled with 'hehehe' laughter, causing passersby to panic and quickly leave the area.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the Hegemony Tournament was about to begin!
Strictly speaking, the Hegemony Tournament was the beginning of the National Beast Taming Competition, with participants being the top young talents in the country.
The Hegemony Tournament was not just an individual competition; it involved various factions.
Chen Shu was a representative figure of the academy, while Fang Si represented the Dragon Guard. As for Jiang Wenchen, Ji Feng, and others, they represented Beast Taming families, and Wang Sheng represented civilian Beast Taming groups.
In the center of Saint Imperial Island,
The original ten competition stages had been modified and integrated into one vast stage, ensuring contestants could perform to their fullest.
Furthermore, the Hegemony Tournament matches would not be held simultaneously but sequentially.
This was because each match was considered extremely exciting and showcased the spirit of the younger generation.
This also meant that each match would be watched by over a billion people.
Amidst the crowd, someone said with a smile, "Young Master Shi, you can finally get your revenge openly today!"
"I will show Chen Shu what true strength is!"
Shi Ziming's mouth curled up, his eyes filled with excitement, his body even trembling slightly from anticipation.
Finally, he would have his chance to redeem himself!
"Everyone! Today will be a momentous day!"
Ye Yu ascended into the air, looking down at the crowd below, and said earnestly,
"The National Beast Taming Competition has finally reached the Hegemony Tournament stage. The current contestants represent the pinnacle of Huaxia and are the pride of the era!"
"I hope everyone will give their all and showcase the most brilliant matches to the nation and the world!"
With that, a massive screen appeared in the sky, displaying powerful Beast Tamers one by one.
"The champions of every Beast Taming Tournament have always been exceptionally talented individuals, all pillars of the nation, whose experiences are nothing short of legendary!"
The eyes of the crowd were filled with admiration as they saw prominent figures from the Beast Taming world.
Wang Sheng suddenly became excited as a Beast Tamer appearing on the screen bore a striking resemblance to him, indicating a familial connection.
He whispered, "Father, I will catch up to you and claim the honor you once held!"
Not only Wang Sheng, but Ji Feng and others also became excited upon seeing their elders.
Chen Shu also saw a familiar face. A young man was standing on a contracted spirit, his eyes filled with a proud and defiant gaze.
It was Qin Tian, the Vice Principal of Huaxia Academy!
At that moment, all the participating contestants were filled with fighting spirit!
"The championship is not just about material rewards; it is a supreme honor!"
Ye Yu's expression was excited, and he pointed to the north of the island, saying, "Winning the championship will allow you to leave your name on the Monument of Prodigies!"
A hundred-meter-tall giant stone monument stood to the north, bearing the marks of time, but what remained unchanged were the names carved upon it.
"I can also engrave my name?"
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, finding it rather unexpected.
"You didn't know?"
Xu Xingxing turned to look and said, "It's to the north of Saint Imperial Island. Legend has it that it was personally built by a legendary Beast Tamer."
Chen Shu pouted, "I'm constantly under siege by all sorts of cannons and sniper rifles, how would I know?"
Just then, the screen above turned off, and the Hegemony Tournament was about to begin!
"Now, the path to legend lies before you. Gentlemen, embark on your journey!"
With that, Ye Yu left the sky,
A host stepped forward in front of the giant competition stage.
"Today, the first match will be between contestant Chen Shu and Shi Ziming!"
The two stepped forward in front of the crowd, preparing to ascend the competition stage side-by-side.
"If you're scared, you can surrender early!"
Shi Ziming sneered and said, "I'll show you what a true Beast Tamer is!"
"Oh?"
Chen Shu chuckled and shook his head, appearing completely unconcerned.
"You, a Silver One-star, what makes you think you can fight me?"
Shi Ziming's expression turned cold. He hadn't expected the other party to still be so arrogant.
Chen Shu smiled gently and said, "If you talk any more nonsense, I'll subdue you!"
"..."
Shi Ziming froze, a shadow instinctively appearing.
But thinking that the entire nation was watching him, he immediately gained confidence.
"Then try subduing me?"
He sneered and simultaneously extended his head, adopting a provocative posture.
