Chapter 288: How Did He Go From Contestant to Judge?
Chapter 288: How Did He Go From Contestant to Judge?
The Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body.
Zhu Hong had mentioned that there was almost a 100% chance of it being a Temple-ranked Super Rank Skill!
And this kid in front of them had researched it!
Quintessence Synergy, Quintessence Manipulation.
A versatile skill, both offensive and defensive, with an almost infinite energy cycle.
A flawless and terrifying skill, the embodiment of the Five Elements! This was the second Super Rank Skill of the Five Elements Paper Figure.
After signing the Super Rank Skills, the three of them couldn't help but slowly piece together the strength displayed by the Five Elements Origami and the effect of the Super Rank Skill that Su Ping had mentioned.
And then, they remained silent until now.
"In fact, this Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body is also purely due to my good luck, similar to the Sun Core."
Su Ping humbly spoke.
He genuinely believed this; Xue Hongluan was the true developer of the Quintessence Synergy, and Su Ping, Zhu Hong, and Liu Fuhai were the ones who had fully cultivated the Origami Person to bear it.
Su Ping didn't have the audacity to claim sole credit for this skill.
However, for the three of them, this little guy's humility was completely genuine.
But he was indeed qualified.
Even now, Master Yin still looked skeptical, while Su Anyong and Cold Sir had just barely snapped out of their daze.
They exchanged glances, seeing the affirmation in each other's eyes.
Cold Sir slowly exhaled, then turned to Su Anyong:
"Instructor Su!"
"Yes!"
Su Anyong quickly responded.
"What do you think of the Origami Person? Is it suitable to be a Beast Taming pet for the Special Beastmaster Corps?"
This question was almost rhetorical.
For a pet to display power beyond the Sovereign Rank in such a situation and perfectly meet the stringent energy protection requirements, they couldn't imagine any other pet meeting the standards if this one didn't.
However, upon hearing this, Su Anyong fell silent.
As an instructor and with his status and strength, he had to consider more than just these factors.
If the breeder of this Five Elements Origami were someone else, Su Anyong would have agreed without hesitation.
If anyone had any other opinions, he could easily slap them down.
For a pet like this, what other choices were there? If anyone else had a better suggestion, he'd gladly knock some sense into them.
But what made him hesitate slightly was that the breeder of this Super Rank Skill was none other than his son, Su Ping.
His son was the breeder, and he was the instructor?
If this didn't get out, it would be fine, but if it did, there would be much gossip among the upper echelons of Dragon Nation.
The instructor and the breeder were the two lifelines of the Special Beastmaster Corps.
So, what would this make the Celestial Grave Special Beastmaster Corps?
Would it become a private force of the Su family?
Having reached this status, Su Anyong couldn't help but consider these factors!
This was one of the reasons why Su Anyong hadn't fully snapped out of his daze.
So, in response to Second Young Master's question, Su Anyong fell into silence and contemplation.
After a long while, he finally spoke:
"Ghost Saint, do you want to consider recommending talent and avoiding kin..."
"Avoid your old man!" Cold Sir glared at the young man, but he understood Su Anyong's caution and directly said:
"Rest assured, once I report this to the higher-ups, anyone who dares to gossip will have to deal with me!"
Su Anyong was speechless. Why ask him when he had already made up his mind?
But this was precisely Su Anyong's intention.
With Second Young Master backing him, he felt reassured:
"With your word, I'm relieved! I think Su Ping and this Origami Person are very suitable for our corps' breeding!"
"Heh..."
Cold Sir naturally understood this young man's ulterior motives, but after a moment's thought, he said:
"However, we should indeed be a bit discreet about this. Some people above, especially some from before, have loose lips. So, in addition to Su Ping, we'll select another breeder!
His Origami Person is indeed powerful, but it slightly lacks reconnaissance abilities, which are crucial within the Celestial Grave.
Let's fill this gap by selecting another breeder who perfectly complements this aspect! After all, we have many other breeders here, and it wouldn't make sense not to try them out."
Master Yin, what do you think?"
Master Yin, who was standing beside them, finally snapped out of his daze.
"Oh, yes, that's fine too."
Cold Sir's lips curled upwards, revealing a hint of a smile.
This old ghost, who knows if he'll be able to tell Su Ping about becoming his student later?
This student now has two Super Rank skills in breeding and is an Origami Person, a cross-era evolutionary being.
This old ghost wants to take on a student? Why doesn't this old ghost use that damn Super Rank skill to exchange for a new body and then go be this kid's student?
At this moment, Master Yin naturally wouldn't think like Cold Sir, but the scene just now and the impact of the Five Elements Body had indeed shattered many of Master Yin's thoughts.
If he had known about this kid's achievements, he would never have opened his mouth.
How embarrassing.
Thinking of this, Master Yin coughed lightly:
"Indeed, for reconnaissance, the Origami Person's abilities are somewhat lacking. Since that's the case, let's take another look at the other breeders and see if they have any breeding evolutionary bodies in this aspect."
After the three of them agreed, Cold Sir thought for a moment and then said:
"Alright, let's announce the next breeder to come in! As for Su Ping... You, come over and join us in observing the other breeders' beasts! You can also provide some suggestions, and we'll leave together when it's over."
Su Ping blinked, had he gone from a participant to a judge?
Seeing Su Ping's troubled expression, Cold Sir raised an eyebrow, "What's the matter? Do you have any questions?"
Su Ping shook his head:
"It's not a problem, but can I ask for some food to be brought up from downstairs? I've been hungry for several days now..."
"..."
...
Su Ping left for nearly an hour.
The commotion upstairs made many of those waiting downstairs curious and worried.
Moreover, was this time a bit too long? He's been up there for so long, and there's still no news.
"What's going on? What's the meaning of this selection?"
"Yeah, it's been so long since he went up, and there's still no news from Su Ping?"
"Could it be that the kid has already succeeded?"
"It doesn't make sense. Even if he succeeded, they should at least inform us, right?"
A chorus of murmurs arose, and it was clear that the hour-long test was indeed a bit too long for the breeders who had come.
However, just as they were discussing, the previous Ghost Saint's voice once again rang out from the speakers:
"Please welcome the second breeder!"
The simple announcement caused everyone to pause before realizing what had happened.
"So it's already over?"
"Where's Su Ping?"
"I get it, hahaha! This kid was so arrogant and boastful before, saying that once he went up, we'd all be wasting our time. Now, after the first round, he probably failed and left without a word, too embarrassed to return?"
"Hehe, that must be it. It's just youthful recklessness! I heard that the Special Beastmaster Corps is recruiting Necromancy-type beasts and breeders. The Thousand Wood Wolf certainly has potential, but it doesn't meet the requirements!"
"I said this is a Special Beastmaster Corps breeder selection, not just about the cost-effectiveness of breeding evolutionary bodies..."
Some people who had been hesitant to speak up before finally joined in.
Of course, there were also those who merely smiled and didn't say anything further.
This was normal, and it wasn't easy to say anything about this situation, after all, they hadn't gone up there either. Even if Su Ping had failed, he was still the youngest and most talented breeder in Dragon Country.
Jian Yue was one of them, and it was in this situation that she spoke up again:
"Since we can go up again, who's next?"
This question brought everyone back to reality, and it made some people even more dissatisfied with Su Ping:
"This little Su, could it be that he didn't want to tell us the specific conditions of the trial selection, so he chose to sneak away?"
"Aiyo, really, we wouldn't say anything!"
"Yeah..."
Saying these things was just to express their dissatisfaction, but the problem still needed to be resolved. No matter what, they couldn't let those upstairs wait indefinitely.
At this point, there was no room for argument.
Someone stepped forward without hesitation, and it was none other than Jian Yue, who had spoken up earlier.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since it's come to this, I'll take the responsibility!" Jian Yue declared.
"Good, then let's wish Jian a smooth journey ahead!"
Jian Yue, despite not having any particular opinion about Su Ping, considered it a normal reaction. Perhaps someone like her wouldn't hold any grudges against Su Ping.
However, putting aside other matters, Su Ping's early departure undoubtedly demonstrated his foresight.
But Jian Yue didn't mind; in fact, if Su Ping hadn't left earlier, she would have been the first to take the lead.
The reason was simple; she had enough confidence in herself! She believed that her pet beast, according to the previous assessment, would undoubtedly have a significant advantage in this special beast taming force selection.
Thinking of this, Jian Yue, standing in the elevator, adjusted her black-framed glasses and exhaled a long breath.
The elevator slowly ascended.
It quickly reached the first floor.
The elevator doors opened.
A mechanical hall slowly came into Jian Yue's view.
The hall was filled with mechanical steel patterns, and on these patterns were traces of either black or moist marks.
Clearly, these were signs of previous use.
Were these traces of combat?
Jian Yue's heart stirred, and she felt a bit nervous.
If it was combat, she was indeed a bit apprehensive.
But soon, Jian Yue regained her composure and looked towards the end of her line of sight.
Beyond the transparent glass partition, several figures were seated.
She didn't recognize any of them.
At this moment, Su Anyong, who would usually speak up, said:
"Greetings, breeder. I am Su Anyong, the chief instructor for this special beast taming force selection. This is Ghost Saint, and this is Master Yin, a necromancer breeder master from the Breeder Association headquarters." After the introductions, they could prepare to begin the selection trial.
"Yes, sir! Greetings, Instructor Su, Ghost Saint, and Master Yin! I'm Jian Yue, a breeder from Qilu Province, and I'm also glad to participate in this selection trial."
"The trial situation has undergone some changes. The requirement for combat resistance in the simulated environment has been significantly reduced, while the demand for pet beast reconnaissance abilities has increased. Therefore, the internal environment simulation has been altered, focusing primarily on reconnaissance!" Cold Sir interjected.
Hmm? Jian Yue was slightly taken aback. What did this mean? Could the trial really be changed?
However, it was evident that Ghost Saint had no intention of explaining. He called out to someone behind him:
"You, hurry up! The second breeder has already arrived!"
"Coming, coming!"
A familiar voice and figure appeared from behind the glass door. Carrying a chair with one hand and a cake box in the other, he said, "The staff kept talking, and I asked for Osmanthus cake and tree fruit lotus cake, but they brought the wrong ones, which delayed me a bit."
Jian Yue blinked, watching as the figure she had just greeted earlier appeared behind the glass partition, carrying a chair and sitting next to the three of them. He opened the cake box and stuffed a piece into his mouth, but for a while, he didn't react.
"Huh? Isn't that Sister Jian? Good luck, Sister Jian!"
Su Ping recognized the breeder from Qilu Province who had greeted him first. He smiled and waved back.
Good luck?
Didn't you leave already?
How did you end up here now?
Why sit at the back?
Jian Yue was a bit perplexed.
Fortunately, Master Yin soon provided her with an answer:
"This is Su Ping, a breeder from Jianghai Province. Su Ping's breeding evolutionary pet beast has passed the trial. After our unanimous evaluation, Su Ping's breeding evolutionary body has been recognized as one of the breeding pet beasts for this special beast taming force.
Su Ping has also become one of the breeders for this special beast taming force. Therefore, the combat requirements have been lowered, and the reconnaissance abilities of the pet beasts in the upcoming breeder trial assessment have been increased..."
Master Yin's words provided Jian Yue with the answer.
However, Jian Yue couldn't help but feel puzzled by the latter part of the explanation.
At this moment, she was curious about one thing.
How did this guy manage to go from a participating breeder to a judge?
Is this fair?!
