Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer? - Chapter 527
Chapter 527: Chapter 270: Jianmu’s Opponent!_1
Fang Mu had never heard of the term “exhibition match” on the Battle Network before.
Fang Mu mainly used the Battle Network to improve his own fighting skills, essentially treating it as a tool to hone his abilities.
After all, Fang Mu didn’t have many opportunities to fight in real life.
His Guardian Beast, Rainy Doll, wasn’t suitable for fighting at all. Even a single drop of its rain could damage another Guardian Beast’s core and potentially kill it.
This was why Fang Mu consistently logged onto the Battle Network.
Otherwise, with Fang Mu’s resources, he could have easily found various types of training partners for strategic battles.
[V Battle Net]: Hello, Jianmu! I am the administrator for the Battle Network Silver Rank Division. You’ve won consecutive battles and have reached the promotion match for Silver Three. On behalf of the Battle Network, I would like to invite you to participate in the Silver Battle Hall exhibition match.
Facing something he was unfamiliar with, Fang Mu chose to ask directly without any hesitation.
[Jianmu]: What’s an exhibition match? How is it different from a regular promotion match?
Fang Mu hadn’t heard of exhibition matches before, but he had heard of the Silver Battle Hall.
The Battle Network has six Battle Halls: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Sacred War Halls.
Highly skilled Beast Masters often come to these Battle Halls to duel and allow others to watch.
The Battle Network sells tickets to these matches as a way to make money from these Beast Masters.
Could it be that the Beast Masters who previously battled in the Battle Halls were invited to participate in exhibition matches?
Fang Mu didn’t mind other people watching his battles.
However, if there were no benefits, he didn’t see any point in participating in an exhibition match.
Right now, what Fang Mu wanted most was to quickly raise his Battle Network ranking.
Yang Mingyu had just been promoted to the administrator of the Battle Network’s Silver Division not too long ago.
The administrators of the Battle Network, each in charge of their respective divisions, regulated their respective Battle Halls.
The Bronze and Silver Battle Halls weren’t really known for being impressive. Even when dazzling Beast Masters were selected from the Bronze Battle Hall to fight in exhibition matches, the highest level Guardian Beasts they had were silver-level, which wasn’t very compelling to watch.
The Silver Battle Hall was the same.
Audiences usually found exhibition matches at the Gold Battle Halls and above to be more exciting, as battles between platinum-level Guardian Beasts were more entertaining.
However, as the newly appointed Battle Network Silver Division administrator, Yang Mingyu discovered an oddity within the Silver Division.
This oddity was Jianmu!
Jianmu’s popularity on the Battle Network was even higher than many Grade B club players!
And Jianmu’s presence as a topic of discussion on the Battle Network was constantly increasing.
The popularity and heat of these Grade B club players were achieved through hundreds of battles. Before they became star players, they were all streamers.
However, Jianmu only had a handful of fights, and only around three or four of these battles were exposed to the public through streamers.
Yang Mingyu saw Jianmu as a chosen one, naturally drawing attention and creating a buzz.
If given enough exposure, Jianmu’s popularity could even rival the superstar players of the Grade B clubs, or even the ordinary players of the Grade A clubs.
Given Jianmu’s display of skill, the Silver Division was just a temporary stop. Jianmu would soon leave the Silver Division and enter the larger arena of the Gold Division.
Knowing this, Yang Mingyu tried to seize the opportunity to catch Jianmu, this rising star, before he could leave the Silver Division.
He hoped Jianmu could bring some heat to the Silver Division before leaving, thereby helping himself out a bit.
Seeing that Jianmu didn’t know about exhibition matches, Yang Mingyu decided not to give Jianmu a detailed introduction about them.
The entire Battle Network is connected through Dream Beasts, and in the Battle Network, the Dream Beast is god!
In exhibition matches, Yang Mingyu can have the Dream Beast shield the Beast Master’s senses from the distractions of outside spectators.
In essence, an exhibition match didn’t differ from a normal duel for a Beast Master.
Yang Mingyu planned to emphasize to Jianmu the benefits of participating in an exhibition match.
[V Battle Net]: Exhibition matches can increase your fame and earn you more Battle Network points.
[V Battle Net]: If you’re willing to accept two successive exhibition matches and win both, I can let you skip ranks and move directly to the promotion match of the Golden Rank.
Normally, an exhibition match is a single match. However, Yang Mingyu saw potential in Jianmu’s popularity and sought to retain him with this offer.
The promise Yang Mingyu made was the absolute limit of what he could offer.
In Yang Mingyu’s view, the first two benefits he proposed were more appealing.
As for shooting straight to the promotion match of the Golden Rank, in his perspective, it was just an added bonus.
Because in Yang Mingyu’s view, with Jianmu’s strength, even if he didn’t skip ranks to fight in the Gold Rank promotion match, it would only involve a few more matches.
What Yang Mingyu didn’t know was that the first two appealing points he thought would sway Fang Mu held no interest for him at all.
Fang Mu was more interested in Yang Mingyu’s offer for him to advance directly to the Gold Rank promotion match.
This not only would save Fang Mu a lot of time, but also facilitate him in meeting stronger opponents earlier, thereby pushing his limits.
Without needing Yang Mingyu to go on, Fang Mu responded immediately.
[Jianmu]: Okay! I accept the invitation to participate in the exhibition match. Is it arranged immediately?
Yang Mingyu originally thought it would take some effort to persuade Jianmu, but to his surprise, it went incredibly smoothly!
[V Battle Net]: Exhibition matches require publicity. If you’re in a hurry, then the match can be held in two hours!
