Chapter 390: A Stream of Visitors!
Chapter 390: A Stream of Visitors!
In the Dragon Dynasty Club, within Su Ping's room, the starry ceiling lights emitted a twinkling glow, bright yet not glaring. At this moment, Su Ping, lying in the massive bathtub, reflected on the encounters and gains of the afternoon.
The construction of dreams.
An illusory world created by mental power.
Even the most ordinary person would dream.
The racial characteristics of humans, with their higher intelligence and innate mental power compared to other creatures, already make dreams a unique human experience in many cases.
Controlling dreams and creating them was the idea that came to mind when he went to find Meng Huangliang.
But that was all.
The most crucial requirement for further progress was Meng Huangliang's advanced skill, 'Dream Entry.'
But that wasn't certain either.
Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and when he returned home, he needed to obtain some dream-related companion beasts, the most representative of which was 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 goal for this breeding direction.
"Fatty, your breeding is indeed a bit troublesome!"
Su Ping muttered to himself.
A familiar mechanical voice quickly responded to Su Ping:
"Master, is my breeding related to the Dream Core?"
Su Ping shook his head and then nodded:
"It's similar, but also different. The Dream Core relies on the mechanical core you used last time to hypnotize through electromagnetic network spiritualization, while also attracting the beastmaster's mental power into the main world of the Dream Core.
However, my initial idea is for you to understand genuine human dreams, forming an illusory world with human mental power, and then connecting them together while maintaining complete control."
The mechanical voice of Fatty sounded again:
"But Master, can I evolve like this?"
"Hmm..."
Su Ping was taken aback, and his fingers, still wet with white foam, unconsciously touched his nose:
"Not necessarily. Your situation is special, and I haven't found the trigger for your evolution yet."
Su Ping had never doubted his abilities and creativity.
However, sometimes, abilities and creativity also have side effects, such as overlooking the focus of current tasks due to excessive mental agility, which can lead to neglecting fundamental aspects.
Indeed, at this moment, after Fatty's comment, Su Ping realized this as well.
Even if this 'Real Dream' was successfully created, it might not necessarily lead to finding Fatty's evolutionary trigger.
For a mechanical companion beast, the most intuitive trigger for evolution is connecting with a physical body and merging with powerful material components to become an independent, combat-ready entity.
Instead of being a mere sphere that constantly chatters and peeks at others' browser history.
At this thought, Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he said:
"Have you sent a message to Dong Muchun? Ask her to mail a Dream Core helmet. As for your evolution issue, I'll find time to consult someone."
Although Su Ping didn't have many connections or friends in this field, his name represented his ability to make friends at any time.
The Mechanical Association, and even within Dragon City, he was the absolute authority on mental aspects. The Dragon Kings and Dragon Riders in the Emerald Dreamland might offer him some constructive advice.
After all, Su Ping's understanding of mental and mechanical companion beasts was limited.
"I've sent the message, but Miss Dong said she doesn't care. She still sent a few Dream Core helmets, but they won't arrive until the day after tomorrow morning."
"Oh?"
Su Ping frowned slightly, but he couldn't control the speed of mail delivery. Unless he sent the Dragon Pride to Jianghai to pick it up, but that seemed unnecessary.
He had plenty of time and wasn't in a rush.
With that thought, Su Ping dried his body and lay down on the large bed, entering a state of meditation.
Time slowly passed throughout the night.
Su Ping had thought, and many others had said, that there were less than four days left until the final trial began. During these four days, there would undoubtedly be visitors seeking him out.
However, Su Ping hadn't expected them to arrive so soon.
Moreover, early in the morning, many people with the same purpose, without prior arrangement, arrived at the Dragon Dynasty Club, a place not easily accessible to outsiders.
Among them were three particularly distinctive figures.
Leading them was a young man.
A young man who had recently gaining widespread recognition.
He had been a frequent topic of discussion during this period, attracting countless eyes as a professional exam candidate. The young beastmaster, Chen Zhan, was the one who had captured everyone's attention.
The main reason for his fame was his companion beast, a growing Azure Dragon.
As the symbol of the Dragon Nation, the significance of dragons was self-evident.
Chen Zhan, one of the few young beastmasters capable of riding dragons, and the top-ranked among them, naturally became the center of attention.
He was the most talked-about candidate, second only to Su Ping.
In contrast, the few candidates from the Magic Capital Academy, corresponding to the Imperial Capital Academy, seemed to be keeping a low profile. Especially the top-ranked candidate, Yan Fan, who had not been a topic of discussion.
Indeed, at this moment, the three young people who arrived included Chen Zhan.
And standing beside Chen Zhan were Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao, the second and third-ranked candidates from the Jianghai provincial exam.
"Brother Chen, is Su Ping really here? This place seems like a private area."
Li Yaoyao stared at the large courtyard gate blocked by a high wall. As someone who had never been to the Imperial Capital, she couldn't fathom who could possibly own such a place in the heart of the city.
"Yes, the Dragon Dynasty Club is indeed a private club in the Imperial Capital. I occasionally come here to stay for a while or host gatherings."
Compared to Li Yaoyao, Yan Fan was more experienced:
"A place like this, and Brother Chen can even hold gatherings here? Truly remarkable! I saw a senior Beastmaster of the Imperial Rank rushing in just now..."
"I'm just fortunate to have received some care from my family, and my Chen family has had a good relationship with the Wang family for generations, so I can occasionally come over. As for that person just now, I have indeed met him once. He's also the Inspector General of the Skyward Surveillance Bureau, or the Mystic Domain Administration, and he's not only an Imperial Beastmaster, but also holds a high position with great authority.
Chen Zhan smiled slightly, explaining the identity of the person who had just entered the Dragon Dynasty Club.
"So that's the case, it's no wonder it's the Imperial Capital. A person of this caliber is indeed rare in Linzhou."
Yan Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Here, even a brick thrown might hit a pile of Sovereign Rank Beastmasters.
"Don't belittle yourself! Even in shallow waters, there are true dragons! The presence of someone like Su Ping in Linzhou is proof enough. As long as you're exceptional, you can stand out anywhere, and the same goes for you, Brother Yan, and Yao Yao."
Chen Zhan said with a smile, his demeanor extremely graceful, and his words impeccable.
At this moment, Yan Fan also felt curious and asked, "Speaking of which, Brother Chen, what's the reason for seeking out Su Ping? And you asked me and Yao Yao to accompany you, yet we're only acquainted with Su Ping."
Chen Zhan felt a bit helpless in his heart, recalling his family elder's instructions from the previous night. This person standing before them was a true second-generation scion, proud and noble.
Regardless of the true reason, the fact that such a person came over was proof enough.
However, for Chen Zhan, he believed he had done what he could.
After all, his Chen family in the Imperial Capital was one of the few remaining families with a Holy Spirit Rank Beastmaster.
Unlike those families that had been suppressed, they still held the trust of that person and Dragon City.
Otherwise, at his young age, when his talent awakened early at sixteen, his great-grandfather wouldn't have promised to gift him a Dragon Companion Beast upon his promotion to the Overlord Rank.
If not for his father's instructions, a person of his stature wouldn't have bothered to find a way to contact this youngster who was even younger than him.
Chen Zhan didn't quite understand Su Ping's achievements. As for the two Supreme Skills he cultivated? He had encountered Supreme Skills before; not to mention, on his Qinglong, aside from the innate Supreme Skill Dragon Soul, there was another Supreme Skill from the Wind Clan.
What's so impressive about cultivating Supreme Skills?
Could any Beastmaster be as powerful as his grandfather and great-grandfather?
In the world of Beastmasters, it's the strength of the Companion Beast and the Beastmaster that matters.
Of course, Chen Zhan would never reveal these thoughts. Whether he was willing to carry out the family's instructions was one thing, but whether he could do it well was another matter.
However, it was quite convenient.
His family had always advised him to stay away from the Dragon Dynasty Club.
And Chen Zhan, in fact, had never found many of the facilities and luxuries that the club offered in his family.
Now, with such a legitimate reason to visit the Dragon Dynasty Club, it wasn't a wasted trip. Even if it meant bringing these two country bumpkins...
Chen Zhan glanced at Yan Fan and Li Yao Yao beside him and smiled slightly, "Alright, let's go in and have the front desk notify him."
"No, no, Brother Chen, you're too kind. Even if we're a few years older, in terms of Beastmastery, we still have much to learn from you... As for the introduction, we'll do our best..."
"Alright, let's talk inside."
The Dragon Dynasty Club, in terms of privacy, was naturally well-equipped.
Those who stayed here, unless they met in other facilities, would be left alone. If it was a planned visit, one could only enter after notifying the owner and receiving their consent.
However, upon entering the lobby, several receptionists, who could even be considered top-notch in the entertainment industry, looked helplessly at a figure.
What surprised the three of them was that the person who had made the receptionists feel helpless was none other than the Inspector General of the Skyward Surveillance Bureau, or the Mystic Domain Administration, an Imperial Beastmaster, as mentioned by Chen Zhan.
"Miss, please call Su Ping again. I truly need to find him. The guest's assistant mentioned that he's in meditation, and it's absolutely forbidden to interrupt. Can you ask him to come out in half an hour? Or, since you know the guest, you can call his private number..."
The receptionist looked at this person helplessly. Anyone who could enter the Dragon Dynasty Club was not someone she, a mere receptionist, could afford to offend.
However, many times, there was no way around it.
Indeed, it was Huang Tianbing, with dark circles under his eyes, who entered.
Huang Tianbing sighed helplessly, as he realized that he truly didn't have Su Ping's new phone number.
To contact Su Ping, he could only do so through the Skyward Surveillance Bureau's backend, but Su Ping hadn't been active there for quite some time. He had actually come by yesterday, but Su Ping was out, and today, he had come early, only to encounter this situation.
There was no choice but to wait.
Huang Tianbing returned to his seat in the reception hall and waited. Chen Zhan, who had just entered, was slightly startled.
This person held an important position, although he was only at the Imperial Beastmaster rank, but he was the Inspector General of the Skyward Surveillance Bureau. Was he also here to see Su Ping?
This country bumpkin from Jianghai was quite popular as a breeder?
"Hello, Inspector Huang."
He greeted with a smile.
"Hello, you are..."
"I'm Chen Zhan, Chen Siming is my father, and Chen Lifeng is my grandfather."
Chen Zhan introduced himself.
Huang Tianbing was slightly startled, and after running these names through his mind, which was currently overwhelmed with work, he finally realized:
"Oh, so you're Chen Siming's great-grandson. How is the old man doing?"
"Thanks to you, he's doing well. Are you also here to see Su Ping?"
"Yes? Does that mean you are too? That's great, do you have Su Ping's phone number? Give him a call, I really need his help..."
Huang Tianbing was overjoyed and eagerly stood up, looking expectantly at Chen Zhan.
The latter was slightly embarrassed:
"Um..."
He turned to the two people beside him, and Yan Fan quickly spoke up:
"We don't have it either..."
Huang Tianbing sat down again, not bothering to pay attention to this Chen family kid.
Chen Zhan was also speechless, but after thinking for a moment, he said:
"Why don't you sit down, and I'll have the receptionist call Su Ping for you."
"Okay, go ahead."
However, just as Chen Zhan took a step forward, the large door behind him was pushed open again, and two figures quickly entered, not paying any attention to the people present and heading straight for the reception desk.
With each step, their armored bodies made clanking sounds:
"Hello, is Su Ping, the breeder, here today? Please inform him..."
The voice sounded like electronic synthesis, very strange.
Obviously, the name Su Ping not only made Chen Zhan look at the two familiar yet strange figures in bewilderment but also turned Huang Tianbing's head.
Then, this Inspector General, though a bit tired, still maintained a dignified demeanor, and his eyes turned red. He took a quick step forward:
"President Wu, Mad Saint, why are you here? Didn't your assistant say you were on a business trip to the Western Desert Province?"
The strange figure at the front turned around.
A face appeared in everyone's view.
It was a face stretched out by metal and lines.
Even a mechanical eye, which emitted infrared rays.
At that moment, Huang Tianbing recognized the person from the face that turned around.
Mechanical Beastmaster Wu Kuang, a Holy Spirit-ranked Beastmaster.
Nicknamed Mad Saint.
Was he also here to visit Su Ping?
Facing Huang Tianbing, Wu Kuang was slightly startled, but quickly reacted:
"Didn't you just come back?"
"Back..."
"Little Huang, I heard about your situation. The Spatial Fragmenter is really in short supply right now...
I have some matters to attend to today, and I came back from the Western Desert Province specifically for this matter. Next time, let's discuss it in the association's office, okay?"
"You too..."
Huang Tianbing pursed his lips and nodded: "Please go ahead."
Then, he returned to his seat and stared at the reception desk.
Sure enough, under the gaze of this very distinctive person, the receptionist made a call.
Then, on the phone, the cold voice of the female assistant came again:
"I said, Su Breeder is in meditation, and no one can disturb him until he's done!"
"No, no, no... From the voice, is it Long Two? During a mission, I once brought you back!
Who am I? I'm Wu Kuang! Yes, yes, yes, oh, there's something important, how long will it take? It's not certain... No, no..."
Huang Tianbing watched with a touch of schadenfreude as the Mad Saint, who had previously given him a hard time on the phone, now looked helplessly at the phone, and he couldn't help but smile.
"Still no good? No one can disturb Su Breeder during meditation, no matter who it is? Long Two, why is it that I haven't taken action in a long time, and your wings have hardened? Who said that? Su Breeder is just meditating, that's all. Don't you believe me when I say I'll summon the Tyrant Sky Fighter to tie him up and take him for a spin? Damn it, is it Cold Sir who said that?"
The phone hung up, and Wu Kuang listened to the dial tone, feeling a bit dazed.
Beside him, Huang Tianbing smiled and asked:
"Mad Saint, President Wu, what do you say?"
Wu Kuang pursed his lips, glanced at Huang Tianbing, and didn't bother to respond.
He even wanted to slap him with his mechanical arm.
The reason was that on the phone, Long Two finally said:
'This is the order of Saint Dragon. At the same time, I'll convey your words to Saint Dragon.'
Thinking of this, Wu Kuang couldn't help but slap himself with his mechanical arm.
Beside him, Chen Zhan and the other two were silent.
Until Yan Fan looked at the silent Chen Zhan:
"Ahem, Brother Chen, should we make that call?"
