Watching the “filial affection” drama staged between Bai Tongchen and Bai Yuxiao in the secret room, Bai Qi was somewhat speechless. He silently recalled his three pets back and asked, “Um, Tower Master Bai, would you mind explaining what’s going on?”
Only then did Bai Tongchen stop his pursuit and said, “Actually there’s nothing much. Luo Xiang just felt that pure theoretical teaching was too dull, so he set up this act.”
With that said, Bai Tongchen grabbed Bai Yuxiao, whose face was swollen from being beaten, and said, “It’s just that this kid’s acting skills are too poor, it didn’t work.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuxiao pouted and replied, “You should let me summon my other beasts. What does it mean when it’s three against one?”
Bai Tongchen’s vein popped again on his forehead, he punched Bai Yuxiao to the ground once more, saying, “Stop playing the big bad wolf with me; both Xiao Yuan and Cha lost. Do you really think you still have a chance?”
“Xiao Brother and Brother Cha lost? Lost to him?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuxiao was completely shocked, and seemed somewhat disbelieving.
It’s okay for Brother Cha, but how could Xiao Yuan lose? My dad must be trying to fool me.
It must be so!
The more Bai Yuxiao thought about it, the more he was convinced he was right. With a defiant look, he turned his head. Bai Tongchen didn’t bother arguing with Bai Yuxiao any longer and said, “Now that you, Bai Qi, have passed the test, come out with me.”
“Okay.”
He had already suspected that this was some kind of test, and now that it was confirmed, naturally there was no reason to stay here any longer.
Bai Tongchen grabbed the two of them, the three of them were instantly enveloped in a pillar of light and disappeared. When they reappeared, they were back in the previous space.
The blood-red space wall was displaying scenes in different secret rooms, and the blood-red ghost was watching with great interest.
“Yo, Bai Qi, you came out so quickly.”
Seeing Bai Qi appear, the blood-red ghost immediately waved his hand as if to greet Bai Qi.
“This voice… It’s indeed Luo Xiang…”
Hearing the voice of the blood-red ghost, Bai Qi was not at all surprised. He felt it was only natural.
Given Luo Xiang’s character, how could he possibly not be involved in this kind of thing?
“Brother Luo, you said you were in charge of the theoretical part, so why are you having so much fun?”
Luo Xiang shrugged and said, “As members of the Special Training Program, mastering runes is essential, but so is combat experience.”
“At least, your generation has it too easy.”
Luo Xiang’s voice gradually deepened, pointing to several screens that had been interrupted, he said, “At least we have already found quite a few guys who couldn’t resist the temptation of the Beast Soul Warriors and surrendered.”
Bai Qi was taken aback by this, and then he understood.
It turns out that this time it was not only testing the trainees’ ability to adapt and fight in actual combat, but also to gauge their bottom lines.
If they can’t even resist a little bit of threat and temptation, the Association naturally won’t waste resources training them.
However, would anyone really be taken in by such poor acting skills?
Bai Qi glanced at Bai Yuxiao beside him, somewhat doubtful.
“Why do I feel like he’s sneering at me…”
Bai Yuxiao, who had been beaten to a pulp by his own dad, felt instinctively upset when he saw Bai Qi’s gaze. But since his dad was present, he could only pretend not to see.
Soon, several other figures appeared, which naturally turned out to be Bai Qiucha and the others.
As elites, they naturally were able to see some clues, so they ended the battle early.
Of course, there were also those who were clueless.
“Huh? I didn’t even start fighting yet, how could they come out already?”
Zhou Yan was still in an attacking position. Upon seeing the blood-red ghost in the sky that looked like Luo Xiang, he immediately pointed his spear at Luo Xiang and attacked.
“Beast Soul Warrior, die for this lady!”
Bang!
Just at that moment, a figure fell from the sky and pressed Zhou Yan straight to the ground, with cursing coming from her mouth.
“You’re always talking about killing, where’s the quality and the temperament that I taught you!”
If not the head instructor of this training, Leng Feifei, then who could it be with such a violent way of dealing with things?
“Teacher, I was wrong…”
Zhou Yan looked up with a woebegone expression, his situation mirroring that of Bai Yuxiao.
Why do all these combat enthusiasts like to beat people so much? Fortunately, they’re beast masters. If they were beast soul warriors, wouldn’t people die every day?
“Bai Qi, wasn’t Yuxiao your opponent?”
As soon as Bai Qiucha returned, he noticed Bai Yuxiao, who was looking resentfully at Bai Qi, and asked in a whisper.
“Yes, it was him.”
Bai Qi nodded and said, “Right, you Bai Family really are rich and powerful. How come everyone has formed a contract with a Dragon Department beast?”
Bai Qiucha laughed and said, “We two are just lucky. My father and my second uncle happened to discover a Dragon Race secret realm before we were born, so both of us formed contracts with the Dragon Race.”
Well, having a good father is really awesome.
Although he was also quite good.
Bai Qi turned his head and began checking out the images on the wall with Luo Xiang.
All of these beast masters who were pretending to be beast soul warriors were soul race beast masters from the Association. They all disguised themselves, so apart from the first batch of people who came out, everyone else didn’t notice anything and almost all of them chose to fight.
However, this also exposed many issues.
Lack of real combat experience, no intention to attack the beast masters proactively, being influenced by the words of the beast masters…
At the very least, Bai Qi could see from the increasingly grim expressions on Bai Tongchen and Leng Feifei’s faces that they were not very satisfied with the students’ performance.
As for Luo Xiang, sorry, that ghastly face remained the same, without a hint of any anomaly.
Finally, when the battle on the last screen ended, the space once again returned to its prior white color, yet the number of students present had noticeably decreased.
Were they expelled because they couldn’t resist the temptation of becoming a Beast Soul Warrior?
Bai Qi thought of the red crosses that appeared on the screen earlier after agreeing to become a Beast Soul Warrior and he had already guessed the Association’s decision.
Those students who passed also slowly figured out the Association’s intent, both relieved and fearful.
If they had not been firm initially, wouldn’t they have been expelled too?
Although they wouldn’t be convicted, at least within the scope of the Association’s power, it would be very difficult for them to make any progress.
Looking at all the thoughtful students, Leng Feifei finally stepped forward, looked around and said, “Since you came to the headquarters, most of you have not received any training. Do you know why?”
“Because you are not worthy!”
“Anyone who doesn’t meet physical strength, wilderness survival ability, team cooperation ability, and even willpower does not deserve to be called a Beast Master Association’s Elite!”
“I can tell you in advance that in the next half a year, there will be more such training and assessments, and you could be expelled just like they were at any time.”
“So, if anyone wants to quit now, I will unconditionally allow it!”
After speaking, Leng Feifei stood aside without uttering another word, causing the arena to lapse into a long silence.
After who knows how long, a shaky hand was raised, saying, “I want to quit.”
In the few days of limited training, he already discovered that he was among the worst. It was a coincidence that he just withstood the temptation of the “Beast Soul Warrior”. If this occurred a few more times, he would be unsure if he could resist.
Rather than leaving with a potential traitor’s reputation later, it was better to resign from the tough situation now, at least in his original city he was still a genius.
“I quit, too.”
“Me, too.”
With someone taking the lead, the remaining students also expressed their wish to quit one after another. As Leng Feifei had said earlier, all of these requests were accepted.
In a mere half-hour, the originally nearly a hundred students were reduced to just over sixty.
Looking at the still quiet group of students, Leng Feifei asked sharply, “Is there anyone else who wants to quit?”
Silence.
“Good.”
A smile finally appeared on Leng Feifei’s face, and she said, “Congratulations, you have officially joined the Special Training Program.”
Upon hearing Leng Feifei’s words, some students who still struggled internally were suddenly delighted, while Xiao Yuan, Bai Qi and others remained indifferent.
As the most elite batch in the Beast Master Association, there were definitely some assessments, not just a simple recommendation from the presidents of the branches.
However, they never expected it would be done in this way.
Leng Feifei snapped her fingers, and brand new uniforms and badges appeared in front of everyone. A long list suddenly appeared on the wall behind her, and at the top were Mythical Resources!
“Starting today, you are official members of the Special Training Program. Your actions in training, assessments, and even at headquarters will all be scored. The points you gain can be exchanged for the supplies you want at the Holy Relic Tower.”
“Light Spirit Holy Diamond? Twin Star Core?”
Bai Qi quickly found the two Mythical Materials he had reluctantly given up before, his eyes shining. However, after seeing the point requirement, he couldn’t help but twitched at the corners of his eyes.
[Light Spirit Holy Diamond]: 99999 points
[Twin Star Core]: 99999 points
Bai Qi picked up his badge and injected a strand of spirit power into it, immediately seeing his own points.
Bai Qi: 1183
Well, not bad, just short of a bit.
“I know what you’re thinking, so we’ve set up a ranking system.”
“The first one can choose two Mythical Materials for free.”
“The second place gets one, and the third place, only has three Epic Materials.”
Leng Feifei grinned and said, “So, work hard!”
After speaking, Leng Feifei vanished, and people like Bai Tongchen and Luo Xiang also left one after another. The huge space was quickly left with a group of students harboring mixed feelings.
“Phew-1 was saying that these Beast Soul Warriors were so hesitant, it was all fake, so disappointing.”
After Leng Feifei left, Zhou Yan finally returned to her usual self, after a slew of complaints, she walked up to Bai Yuxiao and said, “Yuxiao, how could you bear to return?”
Bai Yuxiao shrugged and said, “I had no choice, I was captured by my dad after losing a bet.”
“Next, I will be training in the Special Training Program, Sister Yan, you’ve got to cover for me!”
Bai Yuxiao ingratiatingly wooed Zhou Yan, and Zhou Yan clearly enjoyed this treatment, patting her chest to indicate that she had accepted this little brother.
“Are you sure this guy is really your cousin? This personality difference is a bit too much.”
After seeing Bai Yuxiao’s performance, Bai Qi couldn’t help but ask Bai Qiucha who was next to him.
“Yuxiao has been left on his own by my second uncle since childhood, he is a bit casual, but a good person.”
Bai Qiucha faintly smiled, then looked at Bai Qi and said, “Now that the official training has begun, we are opponents!”
Bai Qi was startled, then he also showed a smile and said, “Okay.”
The first place could get two Mythical Materials, it seemed he would have to work hard….
