Huan Wang, who had returned to the matching area, had completely recovered his focus.

The first thing Huan Wang did when he regained his focus was to check the comments in his live room.

Huan Wang knew deeply how much impact losing this game would have on the image he was trying to build.

However, what Huan Wang didn’t expect was that the comments in the live room had reached a point where he couldn’t reply!

[A Visitor Passes By]: I don’t know why but I suddenly lose all interest when Young Huan loses! I think I’ll stick to watching live streams in the ranking area from now on!

[Old Dream Against Heart]: I feel the same! The strength of a Beast Master largely depends on his Guardian Beast! Spiritual instruments are after all just external objects!

[Gentlemen Do Not Laugh]: I disagree! Watching live streams in the evening is just for entertainment and killing time, seeing different kinds of spiritual instruments is also a way to broaden our horizons!

[Wood Becomes Gold Dish]: Spiritual Instruments are not just external objects!

At least Sequential Spiritual Instruments aren’t! Sequential Spiritual Instruments through Marrow Pact can almost equate to the existence of half a Guardian Beast!

Huan Wang knew that his image was completely ruined!

Many other streamers like him have seen their popularity decline significantly due to being defeated by their opponents.

If he had lost while using a platinum spiritual instrument, Huan Wang would have accepted it!

But he already had a diamond spiritual instrument and still lost.

Huan Wang was truly unwilling to accept this!

But being unwilling was of no use.

After Huan Wang’s first duel in the past, the real-time viewer count in the live room would at least reach 2 million!

But now the real-time viewer count in the live room had dropped to 950,000, which was even less than when he just started streaming!

This duel was equivalent to a butterfly flapping its wings in the grand scheme of the Battle Network.

But someone happened to record this battle and posted it on the Skin Peeling House of the Battle Network.

They even deliberately came up with a title fitting for a third-rate website. “Shocking! Finally, someone used a Sequential Spiritual Instrument to bash the age area!”

The title mentioned Sequential Spiritual Instruments, and also the age area that has always been a hot topic.

This immediately attracted the attention of many Beast Masters who were surfing the Skin Peeling House.

Fang Mu had no idea that just a casual match-up could cause such a huge reaction.

After playing in the age area once, Fang Mu had no interest in the age area anymore.

The next time he matched for a duel, Fang Mu had switched to the ranking area.

Because Fang Mu was a newbie on the Battle Network and didn’t have any rankings yet, Fang Mu needed to play five placement matches to determine his rank.

If he lost all five matches, he would be placed in the Black Iron Rank.

Beast Masters would at least contract a Bronze Stage Guardian Beast.

Those who lurk in the Black Iron Rank are often those Beast Masters who couldn’t contract a Guardian Beast with good combat capability.

These Beast Masters consider Battle Network duels as a form of entertainment in their spare time.

Those who often lurk in the Bronze Rank are Beast Masters who only have Bronze Stage Guardian Beasts, as well as those whose Guardian Beasts, even if they advance to the Silver Stage, are relatively weak in attack.

Being weak in attack doesn’t mean lacking in combat capability.

Once a Guardian Beast has advanced to the Silver Stage, its abilities will be positioned based on its two skills.

The Battle Network rank duel area only allows single duels.

This makes Beast Masters who have contracted healing and auxiliary Guardian Beasts struggle to improve their rank.

Under normal circumstances, rank is equated with the strength of the Guardian Beast.

As soon as a Beast Master who only has a Silver Stage Guardian Beast advances to the Gold Rank, he will immediately attract the attention of large club guilds!

Even some higher education institutions would set up special classes to specifically recruit these young Beast Masters who have made a name for themselves in the Battle Network rank division.

However, it’s a difficult task to defeat a Gold Guardian beast with a Silver Stage Guardian Beast and secure a place in the Gold Rank.

Every time you advance in rank, you need to participate in a promotion game, and you can only advance if you win all three promotion games!

Applying for a promotion game also has prerequisites – you need to have maximum points in the current rank!

Each major rank is divided into ten minor stages, corresponding to the Guardian Beast’s ten minor stages.

Although only major rank promotions require a promotion game, it’s no easy task to accumulate 1000 points of the current rank!

Because if you lose a duel, a certain amount of rank points will be deducted!

Fang Mu owns a Silver Stage Guardian Beast, if he wins all five matches, there is a chance to be directly placed in the promotion game of the Bronze Rank.

The number of streamers in the rank division is much larger than that of the age division!

However, very few of these streamers are under the Silver Ranks.

Under the Silver Rank, the Bronze Rank Guardian Beasts peck each other, which doesn’t have much value for viewing.

This makes the streamer unable to earn enough to cover the internet cost of using a Dream Beast at the platinum level!

Of course, no matter which division, there are always streamers who stir things up for the sake of their shows.

Some broadcasters who can easily hold their ground at the Golden Rank deliberately lose, becoming gatekeepers at the Silver Ranks.

They gain a following by blocking others who have painstakingly fought their way up!

What’s more, some would even lose until they fall to Bronze Rank, then crush their way back up to the Golden Rank!

As the Ranking divisions don’t allow the use of spiritual instruments, Fang Mu can finally get a good idea of Rainy Doll’s power!

The matching speed for the placement match is much slower than usual.

After about six seconds, Fang Mu finally got matched with his first opponent.

Because Guardian Beasts of different ranks have different abilities, the arena for placement matches is relatively small.

It’s about one-sixth the size of the arena Fang Mu just used in the age division dueling grounds!

Standing in the duel arena that was fifty meters long and six meters wide, Fang Mu glanced at his opponent’s details.

[Liu Feifei]: Age 109, Female, Rank (Black Iron Level 10, 99 Points).

109 years old!?

The opponents you meet in placement matches, especially in the first round, are definitely weak.

This age can definitely be considered elderly!

Fang Mu looked towards the other side of the dueling arena and saw a frail old woman with white hair and thin body, standing shakily on the opposite side with the support of her walking stick.

The Ranking System of the Battle Network does not allow the use of spiritual instruments, let alone offensive weapons.

However, persons with disabilities or elderly individuals over a hundred years old could apply to use a wooden walking stick for support.

Looking at the old granny across from him, Fang Mu felt like a gust of level-four wind could knock her down!

Still coming to the Battle Network at such an old age for duels, how trendy!

The old woman summoned her Guardian Beast straight away.

Three “cluck cluck cluck” sounds came from a distance.

Fang Mu saw three poultry around half a metre tall appear next to the old woman.

A big rooster with teal feathers tinged with brown was constantly scratching at the ground with its claws.

The incessant “cluck cluck” sound was coming from this rooster.

The two hens beside him were shorter and less brightly coloured, their tail feathers bald, clearly domestic hens.

Fang Mu didn’t even bother to inspect these three Bird Beasts with his Eye of Omniscience.

Not only had he seen these three Bird Beasts before, he’d even eaten them!

Three-Flower Valley Chickens are relatively cheap Bird Beasts that are usually served during the festive seasons in ordinary households.

Based on the size of these three Three-Flower Valley Chickens, they were obviously low-level Bronze Rank.

A brawny man weighing around two hundred pounds could defeat these three chickens with some minor scratches!

Fang Mu could see why this old granny was still stuck in the Black Iron Zone.

The fact that she managed to climb up to Black Iron Level 10 with 99 points likely had a lot to do with others taking pity on her.

As expected, after summoning the three Three-Flower Valley Chickens, the old granny across from Fang Mu shouted towards him.

“You’re playing placement matches, lad!?”

“My great-grandson is about your age; he’s in high school!”

“Let this old woman have this one! Surely your teachers have taught you to respect the old and care for the young!?”

Fang Mu was slightly taken aback by these words, and his brows immediately furrowed.

The old woman was clearly aware that he was participating in a placement match, and from her experienced viewpoint, she must’ve understood the importance of these matches.

Many club guilds require that young members win all their placement matches as a minimum requirement for selection and training.

If this old woman’s great-grandson was really the same age as him and in high school, he must’ve known this.

Teachers in high school usually emphasise this when speaking about Battle Network placement matches.

Placement matches for high school students on the Battle Network are usually completed in their first semester of freshman year under their combat class teachers’ supervision.

Knowing all this and still morally blackmailing him, it was just so contemptuous!

Fang Mu, who was educated traditionally, knew to respect the old and care for the young, but respecting the old didn’t mean obeying them unconditionally.

Looking at the three Three-Flower Valley Chickens charging towards him, Fang Mu said coldly.

“Mrs. Liu, it looks like it’s going to rain.. Don’t forget to keep an eye on your great-grandson’s summer homework!”
