Chapter 390: A Steady Stream of Visitors!
Chapter 390: A Steady Stream of Visitors!
In the Dragon Dynasty Club, within Su Ping's room, the starlight ceiling lamp scattered its twinkling glow, bright yet not glaring.
At this moment, Su Ping, lying in the massive bathtub, had the opportunity to reflect on the encounters and gains of the afternoon.
Dream Construction.
A virtual world created through psychic energy.
Even the most ordinary person would dream.
The racial characteristics of humans, with their higher intelligence and innate talents compared to other lifeforms, proved that dreams were indeed a unique and special experience for humans on many occasions.
Controlling and creating dreams was the thought that led him to seek out Meng Huangliang.
However, that was the extent of it.
The most crucial and essential requirement for further progress was Meng Huangliang's super skill, 'Dream Entry'.
But it wasn't necessarily the only way.
Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he decided that upon returning home, he would gather some dream-related companion beasts, with the most representative being Meng Huangliang's 'Dream Butterfly'!
Dream Butterfly was a companion beast with Sovereign-rank racial potential.
Perhaps Meng Huangliang's companion beast had already broken through the racial limit, but Su Ping also needed to find one with such high potential and talent.
He now needed to understand the basics in this regard and then consider the next goals for the breeding direction.
"Fifi, your breeding is indeed a bit troublesome!" Su Ping muttered, seemingly talking to himself.
A familiar mechanical voice promptly responded to Su Ping:
"Master, is my breeding related to the Dream Core?"
Su Ping shook his head and then nodded:
"More or less, but it's also different. The Dream Core relies on the mechanical core you used last time to induce electromagnetic network hypnosis, while attracting the beastmaster's psychic energy into the Dream Core."
But my initial idea is for you to understand genuine human dreams, forming an illusory world with human psychic energy, and then linking them together and gaining complete control."
Fifi's mechanical voice sounded again:
"But Master, can I evolve then?"
"Hmm..."
Su Ping was taken aback and subconsciously touched his nose, still wet with foam:
"Not necessarily, your situation is very special, and I haven't found the evolutionary trigger yet."
Su Ping had never doubted his abilities and creativity.
However, sometimes, abilities and creativity could have side effects, like overlooking the current focus and having too much of a leap in thinking, ignoring the basics.
Indeed, at this moment, when Fifi mentioned it, Su Ping realized it too.
Even if this 'True Dream' was created, it didn't necessarily mean they could find Fifi's evolutionary trigger.
For a mechanical companion beast, the most intuitive evolutionary trigger was what? Of course, it was connecting the body with powerful materials, merging and becoming an independent individual capable of combat.
Not just a creature that chattered endlessly and looked at others' browser history.
Thinking of this, Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he spoke:
"Have you sent a message to Dong Muchun? Ask her to mail a Dream Core helmet. As for your evolution issue, I'll find some time to consult."
Although Su Ping didn't have many connections or friends in this regard, his reputation meant he could make friends at any time.
The Mechanical Association, and even within Dragon City, was the absolute authority on psychic matters, and the Dragon Kings and Dragon Tamers of Emerald Dreamland might offer him some constructive advice.
After all, Su Ping's knowledge of psychic and mechanical companion beasts was indeed limited.
"I've sent the message, and Miss Dong said she'd send a few Dream Core helmets, but they won't arrive until the day after tomorrow morning."
"Oh?"
Su Ping frowned slightly, but the speed of mailing wasn't something he could control, unless he sent the Proud Dragon to retrieve it, which wasn't worth the effort.
He still had plenty of time and wasn't in a rush.
With that thought, Su Ping cleaned himself, lay on the large bed, and entered meditation.
Time passed slowly.
Su Ping had thought and heard from others that there were less than four days left until the final exam, and during this time, there would definitely be visitors.
However, Su Ping hadn't expected them to come so soon.
Moreover, early in the morning, several people with the same purpose, without prior arrangement, arrived at this Dragon Dynasty Club, a place not easily accessible to outsiders.
Among them were three very special figures.
Leading them was a young man.
And currently, he was a well-known youth.
Recently, he had frequently appeared in everyone's discussions as one of the seed contestants in the professional exam, attracting countless eyes.
From the Imperial Capital Academy, the one who had previously held the top position, Chen Zhan.
Of course, the primary reason for his fame was mainly due to his companion, the growing Azure Dragon.
As the symbol of the Dragon Kingdom, the significance of the dragon was self-evident.
Chen Zhan, as one of the few young beastmasters who could ride dragons, and being the top-ranked, naturally attracted everyone's attention.
He was the most talked-about contestant after Su Ping.
In contrast, the top-ranked Ye Zhou from the corresponding Magic Capital Academy remained low-key.
There were no significant topics about him.
Indeed, at this moment, the leader of these three young people was Chen Zhan.
And beside Chen Zhan were two individuals; if Su Ping were here, he would instantly recognize them as the second and third-ranked participants in the provincial exam, Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao.
"Brother Chen, is Su Ping really here? This place looks like a private area."
Li Yaoyao looked at the large courtyard gate blocked by a high wall before her, and as someone who had never been to the Imperial Capital, she obviously couldn't understand how someone could have such a place in the heart of the city.
"Indeed, the Dragon Dynasty Club is a private club in the Imperial Capital. I occasionally come here to stay for a while or hold gatherings."
Compared to Li Yaoyao, Yan Fan was undoubtedly more experienced:
"A place like this, and Brother Chen can even hold gatherings here? That's truly impressive! I saw someone who seemed to be an Imperial Beastmaster entering in a hurry just now..."
"Hehe, I was able to get a regular membership due to my family's connections. Moreover, my Chen family and the Wang family have been close for generations, so I can occasionally come here."
Regarding the person who just entered, I have indeed seen him once. He is a well-known and influential figure in the Imperial Capital, the Inspector of the Celestial Oversight Bureau, which is also the Mystic Domain Administration. He is not only an Imperial Beastmaster but also holds a high position with great authority!"
Chen Zhan smiled slightly as he explained the identity of the person who had just entered the Dragon Dynasty Club.
"So that's the case. Indeed, the Imperial Capital is worthy of its name, and there are only a few people of this caliber in Linzhou."
Yan Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Here, it seemed like even a brick thrown would likely hit a bunch of Monarch-rank Beastmasters.
"There's no need to belittle yourself! Even shallow waters can have true dragons! The appearance of Su Peiyushi in Linzhou is enough to prove that as long as you are outstanding enough, you can stand out anywhere. This is also true for Brother Yan and Yaoyao."
Chen Zhan smiled and said.
His demeanor was extremely graceful, and his words were impeccable.
At this moment, Yan Fan also curiously asked:
"But speaking of it, Brother Chen, what do you need Su Ping for? You even asked me and Yaoyao to accompany you. Actually, we are also from the same region as Su Ping, and we can introduce him to you..."
Chen Zhan felt a bit helpless in his heart as he thought about his grandfather's instructions from last night. He smiled slightly and said:
"I heard about Su Peiyushi's reputation and wanted to get to know him out of admiration."
Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao nodded, not speaking further.
The person before them was truly a first-class member of a prestigious family.
Regardless of the real reason, the fact that someone of this generation, who is also proud and arrogant, would come here like this is enough proof.
However, for Chen Zhan, he felt that he had done what he could.
After all, his Chen family in the Imperial Capital was one of the few remaining Holy Spirit Beastmaster clans.
Moreover, unlike those families that had been suppressed, they still enjoyed the trust of that person and the Dragon City.
Otherwise, at his young age, he wouldn't have been promised a Dragon Companion as a gift upon reaching the Overlord rank when he was sixteen and his talent awakened early.
If it weren't for his father's instructions, someone of his status wouldn't have personally put aside his pride to find these two country bumpkins from the coastal region and try to contact this guy who is two years younger than him.
Chen Zhan didn't quite understand Su Ping's achievements, and as for the two Super Skills he cultivated? Chen Zhan had encountered Super Skills before, not to mention that his Azure Dragon had two Super Skills, one being Dragon Soul, an innate Super Skill, and the other being a Wind-attribute Super Skill.
Cultivating Super Skills? What's so impressive about that?
Is it impressive to have Beastmasters as powerful as his grandfather and great-grandfather? In the Beastmaster society, it's still about the strength of the Beastmaster and their Companion Beast.
Of course, Chen Zhan naturally wouldn't reveal any of these thoughts. Whether he was willing to do what the family instructed was one thing, and whether he could do it well was another matter.
However, it was just right.
The family had always instructed him to stay away from the Dragon Dynasty Club when there was nothing to do.
In truth, Chen Zhan quite enjoyed coming here. Many of the facilities and luxuries here couldn't be found within the family.
Now, being able to come to the Dragon Dynasty Club with a legitimate reason wasn't a wasted trip, even if it meant bringing these two country bumpkins...
Chen Zhan glanced at Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao beside him and smiled slightly:
"Alright, let's go in and have the front desk notify him. You two are also from the coastal region, so you should introduce him to me."
"No, no, Brother Chen, you're too kind. Even if we are a few years older than you, when it comes to Beastmastering, we still have a lot to learn from you... As for the introduction, we'll do our best..."
"Alright, let's talk inside."
Regarding privacy, the Dragon Dynasty Club was naturally well-equipped.
This work was organized by Liujiu Book Bar.
Unless they met in other facilities, they wouldn't be able to enter unless they notified the owner and obtained their consent.
However, as they entered the reception hall, several receptionists who could even be considered top-notch in the entertainment industry looked helplessly at the figure before them.
What the three of them didn't expect was that the person making the receptionists feel helpless wasn't anyone else but the one Chen Zhan had mentioned, the Inspector of the Celestial Oversight Bureau, an Imperial Beastmaster.
"Miss, please call Su Ping again. I really have something to discuss with him."
"Sir, you also heard that the guest is in meditation, and it's absolutely not allowed to disturb him. Could you come back in half an hour? Or, since you know the guest, you can call his private number."
The receptionist looked helplessly at this person, as someone who could enter the Dragon Dynasty Club was not someone she, as a small receptionist, could afford to offend.
(End of Chapter)
Chen Zhan, a young man with a distinguished family background, was the grandson of Yuan Sheng and the great-grandson of Chen Siming and Chen Lifeng. He was a Beastmaster of the Imperial Beastmaster rank, a position of great importance despite being lower than the Overlord rank. Chen Zhan was also searching for Su Ping.
"Hello, Huang Inspector," Chen Zhan greeted Huang Tianbing with a smile.
"Hello, who are you...?" Huang Tianbing asked.
"I'm Chen Zhan. Chen Siming is my father, and Chen Lifeng is my grandfather," Chen Zhan introduced himself.
Huang Tianbing paused, his mind racing with recent events, and then it clicked. "Oh, so you're Chen Lao's great-grandson. How is Yuan Sheng doing?"
"He's doing well, thanks to you. Are you also looking for Su Ping?" Chen Zhan replied.
"Yes, is that so? Do you have Su Ping's phone number? Please call him quickly; I have a real matter to ask for his help..." Huang Tianbing said eagerly.
Chen Zhan hesitated, then said, "Er... I'll have the receptionist call Su Ping."
Just then, the door behind them opened, and two figures strode in without paying attention to anyone else in the room. They headed straight for the reception desk.
With each step, their armored bodies clanked like metal. "Hello, is Su Ping the Breeder here today? Please let him know..." Their voices sounded like electronic synthesis, very strange.
Clearly, the name Su Ping had left Chen Zhan perplexed, looking at the two familiar yet unfamiliar figures. Huang Tianbing also turned around.
The Inspector, despite his fatigue, maintained his composure. His eyes widened as he took a step forward. "President Wu, Mad Saint, why are you here? I thought your assistant said you were on a business trip to Ximo Province?"
The leader of the two figures turned around. A terrifying face appeared before everyone's eyes, a face stretched by metal and wires. Even a mechanical eye glowed with infrared rays, focusing on Huang Tianbing.
Chen Zhan's body stiffened. At that moment, he recognized the person from his turned face. It was Wu Kuang, the President of the Mechanic Engineers Association, a Holy Spirit Beastmaster, and a Mechanical Engineer. His nickname was Mad Saint.
Was he also here to visit Su Ping?
Wu Kuang paused upon seeing Huang Tianbing, then quickly realized, "Oh, you're back?"
"Back..." Huang Tianbing replied.
"Xiao Huang, I heard about your situation. The Spatial Shredder is in high demand right now... I also have some business, and I came back from Ximo Province for this matter. Next time, let's discuss it in the Association office, okay?" Wu Kuang suggested.
"You too..." Huang Tianbing said, pursing his lips and nodding. "Please go ahead."
He returned to his seat, eyes fixed on the receptionist.
As expected, under the receptionist's distinctive gaze, she dialed the phone again.
The assistant's cold voice came through the phone again: "I've said it before. Breeder Su is in meditation, and no one can disturb him, no matter who it is!"
"Wait, wait... By the sound of it, is it Long Er? During a mission, I once brought you back! Who am I? I'm Wu Kuang! Yes, yes, there is something important. How long will it take? Not sure? No, no..."
Huang Tianbing watched with a mixture of schadenfreude and amusement as Wu Kuang, who had been dismissive to him earlier, now looked helplessly at the phone.
"Still no? When Breeder Su is in meditation, no one can disturb him, no matter who it is. Long Er, how long has it been since you last used your wings? Who said that? Breeder Su is just meditating, not doing in-depth research. Why can't anyone disturb him? Who said that? Do you believe I'll summon the Tyrant Sky Fighter and take you for a space tour? Damn it, is it Cold Pride speaking?" Wu Kuang said, and the call ended. He looked at the phone's mute button, feeling confused.
Huang Tianbing, with a mischievous smile, asked, "President Wu, Mad Saint, what do you say?"
Wu Kuang pursed his lips, glanced at Huang Tianbing, and ignored him. He even wanted to slap him with his mechanical arm.
The reason was simple. Long Er, on the phone, had only said, "This is Lord Holy Dragon's order. Also, I'll relay your words to Lord Holy Dragon exactly as you said them."
Thinking of this, Wu Kuang couldn't help but slap himself with his mechanical arm.
Chen Zhan and the others remained silent.
Yan Fan looked at the silent Chen Zhan and coughed. "Chen brother, should we still call?"
