Chapter 288: How Did He Go From Contestant to Judge?

Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body.

Zhu Hong had mentioned that there was almost a hundred percent chance of this being a supergrade skill worthy of the Hall Rank! And this kid in front of them had developed it!

Quintessence Synergy, Quintessence Opposition, and Quintessence Control.

A formidable skill with an almost endless energy cycle, capable of both offense and defense.

A terrifying skill of Quintessence Perfection with no flaws! This was the second supergrade skill of the Five Elements Paper Body!

After signing the contracts for the three supergrade skills, they couldn't help but slowly piece together the strength displayed by the Five Elements Origami Man earlier with the effects of the supergrade skill described by Su Ping.

Then, he remained silent until now.

"To be honest, this Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body can't be considered my achievement either. It's similar to the Solar Heart; it's purely due to my good luck."

Su Ping humbly spoke.

He genuinely thought so. Xue Hongluan was the true developer of the Quintessence Link, and as for the complete cultivation of the Origami Man to bear it, that was the credit of Su Ping, Zhu Hong, and Liu Fuhai.

Su Ping didn't have the audacity to take sole credit for this skill's achievement.

However, for the three people in front of him, this little fellow's humility was nothing but sheer vanity.

Nevertheless, it had to be said that he was qualified to act this way.

Apart from Master Yin, who still looked skeptical even at this moment, Su Anyong and Cold Lord had slightly regained their composure.

The two exchanged glances, and both saw affirmation in each other's eyes.

Cold Lord exhaled slowly, then turned to Su Anyong:

"Instructor Su!"

"Yes!"

Su Anyong replied promptly.

"What do you think of the Origami Man? Is it suitable to be bred as a pet beast for the Special Beastmaster Force?"

This question was essentially rhetorical.

To have a pet beast that could unleash power beyond the Archduke Rank in such a situation and meet the stringent requirements for energy defense, the Five Elements Origami Man had achieved perfection. If this didn't meet the criteria, they couldn't think of any other pet beast that could.

However, upon hearing this, Su Anyong fell silent.

As an instructor, and given his own strength and status, he had to consider not only these aspects but also other issues.

If, at this moment, the cultivator of this Five Elements Origami Man were someone else, Su Anyong would have agreed without hesitation.

If anyone had any other opinions, he would slap them with a big mouth.

For a pet beast like this, what other options were there? If any of the remaining people had an even more impressive one, he'd kick their heads like a ball.

But what made him slightly hesitant was that, at this moment, the cultivator of this supergrade skill was none other than his son, Su Ping.

The son was the cultivator, and the father 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 Country.

Instructor and cultivator were the two lifelines of the Special Beastmaster Force.

So, what would become of the Heavenly Tomb Special Beastmaster Force?

Would it become his Su Family's private army? Having reached this status, Su Anyong couldn't help but consider these matters!

This was also why Su Anyong couldn't fully snap out of his daze.

Thus, in response to Second Young Master's question, Su Anyong fell into a state of silence and contemplation.

After a long while, he finally spoke:

"Elder Ghost Saint, perhaps we should consider promoting talent over personal connections..."

"Promote your father's leg!" Cold Lord glared at the young man, but he also understood Su Anyong's cautiousness.

"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. If you've already made up your mind, why ask me?

However, this was also Su Anyong's intention.

With Second Young Master backing him, he had nothing to fear:

"With your assurance, I'm relieved! In my opinion, Su Ping and this Origami Man are extremely suitable for our force's cultivation!"

"Hey..."

Cold Lord naturally understood this stinker's little thoughts, but after a pause, he did consider it:

"However, this matter does require some discretion. There are some people above, especially a portion of them from before, who are too talkative. So, in addition to Su Ping, let's select another cultivator!

It's perfect timing, as his Origami Man has no issues with combat capabilities and can adapt to any environment, but it slightly lacks reconnaissance abilities, which are crucial within the Heavenly Tomb.

Let's select another cultivator who can perfectly complement this aspect to fill the gap! After all, there are many other cultivators here, and it wouldn't make sense not to try them out before letting someone go."

Master Yin, what do you think?"

Master Yin, who was standing beside him, finally snapped out of his daze.

"Ah, yes, that's fine."

Cold Lord smirked, revealing a hint of a smile.

This old ghost, I wonder if he will still be able to ask Su Ping to be his student later?

This student now has two supergrade skills in cultivation, and he is even an origami man, a cross-generational evolutionary body.

This old ghost wants to take on a student? Why doesn't this old ghost use that damn supergrade skill to exchange for a new body and then go and become this kid's student?

At this moment, although Master Yin would naturally not think like Cold Lord, the scene just now, as well as the impact of the Five Elements Body, did indeed cut off many of Master Yin's thoughts.]

If he had known that this kid had achieved this, he would never have opened his mouth.

How embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Master Yin coughed lightly:

"That's right, in terms of reconnaissance, the origami man's abilities are somewhat lacking. Since it's like this, let's take another look at the other breeders and see if they have any evolutionary bodies in this aspect."

After all three agreed, Cold Lord thought for a moment before speaking:

"Okay, then let's announce the next breeder to come in! As for Su Ping... You kid, come over here and watch the other breeders' pets with us! You can also offer some suggestions, and we'll leave together when it's over."

Su Ping blinked, transforming from a contestant to a judge?

Seeing Su Ping's difficult expression, Cold Lord raised his voice:

"What, do you have any questions?"

Su Ping shook his head:

"I don't have any questions, but can I make a request? I've been hungry for several days, can you send someone to get me some food from downstairs..."

"..."

...

Su Ping left for almost an hour.

The commotion upstairs made those waiting downstairs curious and worried.

Moreover, isn't this time a bit too long? Why has it been so long since he went up, and there's still no news?

"What's going on, what does this selection mean?"

"Yeah, it's been so long since he went up, and he still hasn't finished? Why hasn't Su Ping come down yet?"

"It's impossible, even if he succeeded, no matter what, he should have informed us, right?"

A chorus of discussions erupted, and it was clear that an hour-long test was indeed a bit too long for the breeders who had come.

However, just as they were discussing, amidst the sound system, the Ghost Saint's voice finally echoed again:

"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 see, hahaha, this kid was so arrogant and boastful just now. He said that after he went up, we would all have come for nothing. Now, in the first round, he should have failed. Embarrassed, he probably left quietly."

"Hehe, that's probably it. It's just youthful arrogance! I heard earlier that the Special Beastmaster Force is recruiting for a necromancy lineage pet and breeder. The Thousand Trees Wolf indeed has potential, but it doesn't meet the requirements at all!"

"I was saying, this is a breeder selection for the Special Beastmaster Force, not just looking at the evolutionary bodies' cost-effectiveness..."

Someone guessed the 'truth' and shook his head with a wry smile.

Some who had been afraid to voice their opinions finally joined in.

Of course, there were also those who merely smiled and refrained from saying more.

This was normal, especially since it wasn't easy to talk about such matters. After all, they hadn't gone upstairs either. Even if Su Ping had failed, he was still the youngest and most promising genius breeder in Dragon Country.

Jian Yue was one of them, and it was in this situation that she spoke up again, changing the topic:

"Everyone, since we can go up again, who should go next?"

This question brought everyone back to reality and made some of them even more dissatisfied with Su Ping:

"This little Su, is it because he doesn't want to tell us the specific conditions of the trial selection that he chose to sneak away?"

"Hey, come on!"

"Yeah..."

These words were just an expression of dissatisfaction, but the problem still needed to be resolved. No matter what, they couldn't let the judges upstairs wait idly.

At this moment, there was no room for argument.

Someone stepped forward without hesitation.

It was none other than Jian Yue, who had just spoken up:

"Ladies and gentlemen, since it's come to this, I'll take the lead without hesitation!"

"Good, then let's wish Little Jian a smooth journey ahead!"

"..."

Although Jian Yue didn't have any particular opinion about Su Ping, in her eyes, this was only natural. Perhaps she wouldn't hold any grudges against Su Ping.

However, putting aside everything else, Su Ping's early departure undoubtedly showed great 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 Companion Beast, according to the previous explanation, would undoubtedly have a significant advantage in the selection for the Special Beastmaster Force.

As these thoughts crossed her mind, Jian Yue stood in the elevator, adjusting her black-framed glasses, and exhaling a long breath.

The elevator slowly ascended.

They quickly reached the first floor.

The elevator doors soon opened.

A mechanical hall slowly came into view before Jian Yue's eyes.

The hall was filled with mechanical steel patterns, and on these patterns, there were traces of either pitch-black or dampness.

Clearly, these were signs of previous use.

Were these traces of combat?

Jian Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a bit nervous.

If this was a combat situation, she couldn't help but feel a bit apprehensive.

However, soon enough, Jian Yue snapped out of her thoughts and looked towards the end of her line of sight.

Beyond the transparent glass partition, several figures were seated.

She didn't recognize most of these figures.

At this moment, Su An Yong, who usually took the lead in speaking, said:

"Greetings, Breeder. I am the Chief Instructor for this Special Beastmaster Force selection, Su An Yong. This is the Ghost Saint, and this is Master Yin, the Necromancer Master from the Breeder Association Headquarters!" After the introductions, you can prepare to begin this selection trial."

"Yes, sir! Greetings, Chief Instructor Su, Ghost Saint, and Master Yin! I am Jian Yue, a Breeder from Rujin Province. I'm also delighted to participate in this Special Force Breeding Trial!"

Just then, Leng Ye, who was sitting behind them, paused and said:

"There's been a change in the trial conditions. The requirement for combat resistance in the simulated environment has been significantly reduced, and the focus is now on the Companion Beast's reconnaissance abilities. Therefore, the internal environment simulation has been modified, primarily focusing on reconnaissance!"

Hmm?

Jian Yue was slightly taken aback. What did this mean? Could there be changes in the trial?

However, it was clear that the Ghost Saint had no intention of explaining. He called out to the person behind him:

"You kid, hurry up! The second Breeder has arrived!"

"Coming, coming!"

A familiar voice and figure appeared. From behind the glass partition, a figure carrying a chair and holding a box of pastries walked in:

"The staff kept talking, and I wanted that osmanthus paste and that lotus root powder cake, but they brought the wrong ones, which delayed me a bit."

Jian Yue blinked, looking at the figure who had just appeared behind the glass partition, carrying a chair and sitting down next to the three of them, opening the pastry box and stuffing a pastry into his mouth. She was so stunned that she didn't react for a while.

"Huh? Is that Jian Yue? Jian Yue?"

Su Ping saw the Breeder from Rujin Province who had just greeted him, and he had a good impression of her. He smiled and waved back at her.

"You kid, aren't you supposed to be gone already?"

Jian Yue was a bit perplexed.

But fortunately, Master Yin soon provided an explanation:

"This is Su Ping, the Breeder from Jianghai Province. Su Ping's Cultivated Evolutionary Body has already passed the trial, and after our assessment, we have recognized Su Ping's Cultivated Evolutionary Body as one of the Special Beastmaster Force's Companion Beasts!

Su Ping has also become one of the Special Beastmaster Force's Breeders, so the combat requirements have been lowered, and the focus is now on the Companion Beast's reconnaissance abilities for the upcoming Breeder trials..."

Master Yin's words provided the answer to Jian Yue's question.

However, Jian Yue was still puzzled by something.

She wondered how this kid could go from being a participating Breeder to a judge. Was this fair?!
