Chapter 57: victory in the Gambling Match
Chu Feng asked, “Why do you think I came to the sovereign level secret realm?”
“Why?” Zhu Xi was stunned.
“Because,” Chu Feng smiled, “I’ve already cleared out all the resources in the extraordinary level secret realm.”
Zhu Xi looked at Chu Feng seriously and realized that he did not show any signs of lying.
His expression became complicated as he said, “I’m not as strong as you. I’ve lost.”
Zhu Xi was truly impressed. There was no mistaking the result of the battle. Chu Feng’s Wild Bear was indeed stronger than his Python. Moreover, the battle did not take too long, which meant that there was a considerable gap between their strength.
He had been thinking about it, but he still did not understand how Chu Feng could nurture his Wild Bear to such a level. They were both geniuses, so how could he be so strong?
Chu Feng did not say anything more to Zhu Xi whose personality was much better than Xu Feng’s, who was also from Dishui City. He did not continue to make things difficult for the latter and left directly.
Zhu Xi did not continue pestering Chu Feng either. His Python was now seriously injured. Since he did not have a healing-type pet beast, his Python would not be able to recover for the time being.
For the next three days at least, Zhu Xi’s strength would be greatly reduced. He was completely out of the contestants’ echelon and could only search for some scattered resources in the secret realm. It was almost impossible for him to compete with other contestants. If he was very unlucky and encountered other contestants, he might even be directly eliminated.
The audience was shocked.
“F*ck! I can’t believe my eyes!”
“Chu Feng actually won!”
“To think the Wild Bear had directly crushed the Python’s bones, it’s really something!”
“Obtaining 100 million resources in one battle, awesome!”
“Exciting! So very exciting! Chu Feng is awesome!”
The host had nothing to say. He felt that he had been slapped in the face by Chu Feng and the slaps had never stopped. At first, he had thought that Chu Feng would definitely lose and had been very eager to witness the bet.
He smiled awkwardly and said, “I hope that Chu Feng won’t expose his position in the sovereign-level secret realm. Otherwise, if he is boycotted by the other contestants, things won’t be good for him...”
The audience booed! They really didn’t like the host. Just why couldn’t he admit that Chu Feng was very powerful? He was not magnanimous at all!
In the subspace, Principal Gao smiled. “I’m right, aren’t I? Chu Feng won’t do anything unless he’s confident in it.”
Wan Wanqing was quite speechless. After a moment, she smiled, “It seems that Chu Feng is really the hope of Diming Base City. He’ll probably even advance to the king-level within five years!”
Principal Gao said, “You must continue to work hard. Don’t let Chu Feng become an overlord before you.”
Wan Wanqing smiled. “Principal Gao should be more worried about this than I am.”
Principal Gao blew his beard and glared at her, “What do you know? If Chu Feng becomes an overlord before me, it means he’s better than his teacher, and I taught him well!”
Wan Wanqing did not continue arguing with him. She sighed and said, “Having put himself in the limelight this time, Chu Feng is now ranked 358th on the human assassination leaderboard, only two places below me.”
She had a copy of the leaderboard in her hands. It showed that she was ranked 356th while Chu Feng was just two places behind her. This meant that in the eyes of the foreign races, Chu Feng posed a very high threat! Considering Chu Feng’s current strength, the risks he was under were far higher than Wan Wanqing’s.
Principal Gao smiled. “Isn’t this what you want? I’m sure that on the way that we escort Chu Feng back, they will choose to make a move! If they don’t, it can only mean that they have planned the operation to be commenced ahead of time or delayed.”
Wan Wanqing nodded and said, “This is indeed what I want, but Chu Feng’s ranking is far beyond my imagination.”
She couldn’t help but smile bitterly. With her strength, the assassin she would encounter would probably be at the lord level 10. If two lord-level 10 assassins were to come, even if Wan Wanqing and Principal Gao worked together, it wouldn’t be an easy task to defeat them both.
Principal Gao said, “We can ask Wan Canghai to come over.”
City Lord Wan was at the overlord level. If he could make a move, those at the lord level wouldn’t be a match at all. An overlord could completely crush a lord without any difficulty.
Wan Wanqing shook her head, “My father probably won’t make a move, but there are still people who can help us.”
Principal Gao’s eyes lit up, “You mean those people from the Beastmasters Association?”
...
Dibei Region, Beastmasters Association.
A middle-aged man glanced at the television from time to time and smiled, “This young man is really interesting. To think he dares to challenge a sovereign-level Beastmaster while he is still at the extraordinary level ten... What? He won? He actually won?”
“President!” A delicate-looking female assistant reminded him, “Please watch your posture. Don’t cast any negative light on the association.”
Wang Yuan was speechless, “This is the Beastmasters Association, my territory! There’s no one else here, so how can I cast a negative light on the association?”
He Shuiyun said helplessly, “Just do what you like then...”
She sighed inwardly. Wang Yuan was the president, after all. Moreover, he was an overlord-level Beastmaster. As an overlord-level Beastmaster who ruled over a whole region, even the city lords of the various base cities had to obey his orders when necessary. From this, one could see how prominent Wang Yuan’s power was.
Wang Yuan said, “Is the Beastmasters Association considering recruiting Chu Feng? Don’t tell me that you haven’t found a suitable plan yet despite his outstanding performance earlier.”
He Shuiyun said, “We already have a proposal regarding Chu Feng’s recruitment. Under the leadership of the vice-president, we’ve already held a meeting and are preparing to take Chu Feng into the headquarters’ Genius Camp.”
Wang Yuan glared at her, “What nonsense are you guys talking about? The lot of you only came up with this after discussing it over and over again? Didn’t you see that Chu Feng defeated Zhu Xi, a sovereign level 10, just when he was at the extraordinary level 10! He even had a crushing advantage!”
He Shuiyun sighed. “President, this isn’t my decision...”
Wang Yuan’s anger rose and he couldn’t help but curse, “What’s with the freaking Genius Camp? It’s just a training camp where those with A-rank beast tamer talents can enter! If Chu Feng goes, won’t he be able to crush the rest in minutes? If he thinks that we’re underestimating him, who among you can take responsibility?”
He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. In his opinion, with Chu Feng’s strength, as long as he stayed alive, he would definitely become an overlord. Even though Wang Yuan had been the Beastmasters Association’s president for a long time, he had never seen a more exaggerated cross-level challenge than Chu Feng had done. It was simply ridiculous!
He Shuiyun said helplessly, “I’ll pass on your opinion to the vice president now.”
At this moment, a calm voice sounded. Hao Ziqiang walked over with large strides as he smiled, “I’ve already seen Chu Feng’s potential. It’s indeed not suitable for him to be placed in the Genius Camp. According to my guess, Chu Feng has at least an S-rank beast tamer talent. It might even be an extremely rare SS-rank beast tamer talent! The Beastmasters Association really needs to recruit such a rare genius as soon as possible!”
