Chapter 201: Chapter 143: Budget Version of King of Monsters (Extra)

Five days later, in the bedroom at home.

As the Gold Devouring Potion seeped into his body, Qin Shou’s muscles swelled slightly before returning to normal.

Diamond Four Stars!

"Phew... finally leveled up successfully."

Qin Shou wiped the sweat from his forehead and put on his clothes.

In half a year, he’d consecutively leveled up to Diamond Four Stars. On the surface, it seemed like a pretty fast progression rate.

But he knew that without the assistance of Gold-eating Insects, reaching Diamond Two Stars would have been an accomplishment in itself.

It took him one month to level up to Diamond Two Stars.

Two months to reach Diamond Three Stars.

Almost four months to hit Diamond Four Stars.

This was under the condition that the concentration of Gold Devouring Potion was sufficient for him to ascend so quickly.

As for reaching Diamond Five Stars, it would take at least half a year, with the required time doubling for each subsequent level.

If Big Big Wolf developed a more effective version of the Gold Devouring Potion, the process might go a bit faster.

Thinking of this, Qin Shou quickly sent over all the genetic research materials and video tutorials that Leng Wanbai had given him, making sure Big Big Wolf took them back to study.

With Big Big Wolf’s learning ability, he should be able to digest the material in no time.

If it were possible, Qin Shou would have liked to put himself into the synthesis chamber and give himself an intelligence boost.

Afterward, he spent a considerable sum to order a comprehensive set of experimental research equipment from the official website, which was scheduled to be delivered the next day.

With proper equipment, Big Big Wolf’s research speed could be greatly improved.

A few days later, Leng Wanbai, far away in the Federation Main City, sent word that the Long Family would provide her with protection in acquiring the Cosmic Creature Metal.

To the Long Family, Leng Wanbai was destined to ascend to the Unbreakable Realm sooner or later. With the Cosmic Creature Metal, they wouldn’t have to go through the trouble of gathering other resources for her.

This outcome was exactly what Qin Shou was hoping for.

With no lingering worries, Qin Shou summoned the system interface to enhance the beasts like Greedy Snake and others.

Steel Garuru and the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus had already been given to Fang Bao and Leng Wanbai, respectively.

Among the remaining Synthetic Monsters, each had its unique purpose—except for Radon, the unreliable one.

In terms of power, Radon couldn’t compare to Greedy Snake, Brother Monkey, Godzilla, or Devouring Kun.

In terms of support abilities, it couldn’t hold a candle to Groot, Big Big Wolf, Zhi Yin, Rein Jia’er, or Kazek.

All in all, it had been shelved for a long time.

After some thought, Qin Shou decided to give Radon to Long Xia.

This kid hung out in West City; he needed a flashy beast; otherwise, it would reflect poorly on Qin Shou.

Soon, he would be heading to the Beast Cultivation Main City, leaving his parents under Yu Shusheng’s care in West City. There shouldn’t be any issues.

This trip might mean he’d only return once in half a year.

Becoming Earth’s strongest man was exhausting!!

...

A week later.

Amid the reluctance in his parents’ eyes and others’, Qin Shou vanished into the light of the Transmission Array, disappearing from their sight.

Yu Shusheng smiled with gratification, "Haha, Qin Shou is the first student in West City’s history to receive an admission letter from the Beast Cultivation Main City.

Ten years from now, West City will have its first Unbreakable Realm powerhouse."

Once Qin Guofang and his wife heard this, they became excited.

"Honey, did you hear that? Our son will become an Unbreakable Realm powerhouse someday."

"Yes, yes, I heard it. That’s my son for you."

"Well, it must be because I have good genes."

"Qin Guofang, you’re getting brave, huh? Daring to talk back to me now?"

"Please, not here—there are too many people. We can talk about this at home..."

Fang Bao and his father, who had just entered the Transmission Room, also overheard Yu Shusheng.

"Old Yu, that’s quite the statement. My son’s been admitted to the Mechanical Main City too. Who’s to say he might not become an Unbreakable Realm powerhouse even faster than Qin Shou?" Fang Datong said with a laugh.

Yu Shusheng greeted Fang Datong with a smile but didn’t contest his claim.

In his heart, he scoffed. Your son, that bottom-of-the-pack kid, probably got into the Mechanical Main City by sheer luck. He might be kicked out in two years. We’ll see how embarrassing that is for you then.

Zuo Dahong walked into the Transmission Room with Lin Xiaomei, smiling, "Is everyone here? Wait... where’s Qin Shou?"

"He just left for the Beast Cultivation Main City."

"Oh, what a shame; I didn’t get the chance to thank him! If it weren’t for the set of Battle Armor Qin Shou gave to Xiaomei, she might not have made it to the Beast Power Main City."

Zuo Dahong sighed regretfully.

Yu Shusheng nodded and was about to offer some words of encouragement to Lin Xiaomei when he noticed Qin Guofang and his wife happily chatting with her. They were absolutely brimming with joy.

"Sigh, those two... Qin Shou, Long Family, and now the Hu Family... That kid really has some skills," Yu Shusheng thought with admiration. Ah, to be young again!

...

The Beast Cultivation Main City was located on a floating island high above the Pacific Ocean.

The massive floating island was made entirely of enormous magnetic stones. The island’s area was comparable to several dozen West Cities combined. Surrounding it was a Federation-made defensive barrier capable of withstanding even Nightmare-level Monsters without so much as a scratch.

As the white light of the Transmission Array dissipated, Qin Shou slowly opened his eyes, feeling a wave of dizziness, a clear sign of how far he had traveled from West City.

Leaving the Transmission Room, he found himself in a massive stone-paved plaza.

On the plaza, over a hundred individuals were already waiting.

At Dragon Island, the Beast Cultivation Main City admitted fifty individuals, but that didn’t mean it only recruited fifty people annually.

Beyond that, the city also admitted students who had made "outstanding contributions" to the city’s development.

Colloquially, this was referred to as "pulling strings."

If Qin Shou hadn’t participated in the Dragon Island competition, obtaining an admission letter to the Beast Cultivation Main City would have required him to exhaust his entire fortune.

By "entire fortune," he was referring to the Earth Core Energy Ore in his spatial storage.

The Earth Core Energy Ore in Luoyun City was merely a small deposit. Qin Shou’s 10,000 Earth Core Energy Crystals wouldn’t amount to much in the Beast Cultivation Main City.

Thinking back on how he could continue to promote his "helping others is joyful" motto, Qin Shou became exhilarated once more.

These fellow students were all potential clients!

"Brother Qin, over here!"

From a corner of the plaza, Wang Sheng and others waved and shouted.

Qin Shou responded and made his way to join them.

Leng Wanbai, the Four Little Saints, and these "little brothers" had all successfully made it to the Beast Cultivation Main City.

Good, the squad was intact. It was nice to have followers surrounding him.

At the very least, it made him feel like he had some prestige.

"Brother Qin, we saw the promotional video you shot for the Battle Armor—it was absolutely stunning!"

"Yeah, totally! Those Battle Armors look the most powerful when wielded by Brother Qin, even capable of channeling Constant Star Energy..."

Qin Shou: "..."

That was just exaggerated special effects; couldn’t they see that?

Qin Shou said, "Where do we go to register now?"

"We just wait here for a bit. A teacher will come to pick us up."

"Alright, let’s wait then."

Before long, dozens of beasts descended onto the plaza from the horizon.

"Whoosh..."

As the beasts landed, waves of dust and wind billowed out.

Everyone looked at these beasts, puzzled.

"So these are the beasts of the Beast Cultivation Main City? Their power seems comparable to ours..."

"Yeah, and look at those students dismounting. Their strength is similar to ours too—likely underclassmen."

Amid the whispers, a middle-aged man in white Battle Armor, with a dark complexion, jumped down from a beast and waved to them.

"Silence. I am Su Liang, your head teacher for this year. Take out your admission letters for registration."

Everyone obediently took out their letters and handed them to the students responsible for registration.

After completing the registration, a female student walked up to Su Liang.

"Mr. Su, everyone is here."

"Mm."

Su Liang, stern-faced, addressed the crowd: "The fact that you received admission letters to the Beast Cultivation Main City stands as proof of your strength, talent, and financial resources."

Talent referred to individuals like Qin Shou and the others.

Strength pertained to the youths who had been selected through the competition.

And financial resources—well, that went without saying.

He continued, "However, don’t think that being admitted to the Beast Cultivation Main City ensures smooth sailing or guarantees you’ll ascend to the Unbreakable Realm. If you fail next year’s assessment test, you’ll pack up and go home!"

These words immediately caused an uproar among the crowd.

"What? After spending so many Earth Core Energy Crystals, we still have to take assessments? This is absurd!"

"Exactly! Do they think Earth Core Energy Crystals grow on trees?"

"Right! We don’t accept this—we demand to see the principal!"

"Yeah, bring the principal out to give us an explanation..."

More than half the youths erupted in protest.

Su Liang frowned deeply and suddenly gave a cold snort.

"Boom..."

In an instant, the sound of thunderclaps filled the air. His overwhelming Star Power surged outward, interwoven with lightning. The terrifying aura swept across the plaza, pinning the unruly youths to the ground.

As for the well-behaved ones like Qin Shou, although they witnessed the terrifying lightning, they didn’t feel the slightest discomfort.

"An Unbreakable Realm powerhouse... such precise Star Power control!" Qin Shou thought to himself.

With a casual suppression of the group, Su Liang snorted coldly, "Listen up! Here, you will abide by the rules. Do not act out in front of your teachers!"

"As for the justice you’re seeking? Feel free to take it up with the principal."

With that, the Thunder Star Power dissipated. The youths, faces pale with fear, quietly stood up and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads. None dared to speak anymore.

Seeing this, Su Liang continued, "Now, I will conduct an assessment of your Beast Control Techniques to better arrange your courses."

"Qin Shou," he called out.

"Present."

Qin Shou stepped forward, his gaze steady.

Why was he the first one? This didn’t follow the typical tropes of a power fantasy story!

Su Liang glanced at Qin Shou and said, "You were the champion of the Dragon Island competition. Let me see your Beast Control skills."

"I’ll select a student whose strength is comparable to yours to spar with you. Both of you can only use one beast, without any Mecha, Battle Armor, Beast Power Genes, or other auxiliary equipment."

Although the restrictions were many, Qin Shou wasn’t afraid in the least.

"Understood," Qin Shou replied.

Seeing Qin Shou’s lack of hesitation, Su Liang nodded slightly.

"Report your level."

"Diamond Four Stars."

"Noted. Wang Ku, step forward."

"Present!"

A youth leaped onto the back of his Green Bird beast.

"Mr. Su, I’m ready."

Seeing this, Qin Shou thought for a moment. The Space Gate opened, and a rough, massive beast leg stepped out.

"Boom..."

The colossal body, several times heavier than any similar-level monster, landed, making the entire plaza tremble.

Then came an ear-splitting roar, as a nearly 30-meter-tall upright monster appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Its T-Rex-like body was incomparably muscular. Coral-like dorsal spikes occasionally flashed with azure energy, and its tail was as long as its entire height.

"The King of Monsters..."

The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim.
