Chapter 249: Chapter 249: Coolness Explodes (1)_1
"In order to demonstrate fairness, I specifically invited City Lord Fo Qingyuan to serve as the judge. You don’t have any objections, right?" Dugu Qianye didn’t take another glance at the Contract Beast chosen by Bai Xinyan as he spoke.
"No objections." said Bai Xinyan.
"Sorry for being late." The voice of Fo Qingyuan came from outside, followed by the sight of Fo Qingyuan and two men arriving one after another.
As they reached the judges’ stand, the crowd in the stands gasped in recognition of the newcomers.
"My god, is that really him?"
"Why has he come?"
"Isn’t he the one who never leaves Menhuan City?"
"I heard he and Fo Qingyuan are on good terms, she must have invited him."
Fo Qingyuan said, "Qingyuan feels inadequate to serve as a judge for Chairman Bai by herself, so I have invited the City Lord of Menhuan City, Chang Ying, and the City Lord from Longhua City to join me as judges today. To ensure fairness."
Dugu Qianye looked at the two new men on the judges’ panel. The older middle-aged man was someone Hao Pengyou had mentioned to her, and should be Wa Baichuan, the City Lord of Longhua City.
Then the other man in black robes must be the legendary Chang Ying, the City Lord of Menhuan City! Was this the mysterious figure Hao Pengyou had incessantly talked about to her?
The reason Dugu Qianye knew of Chang Ying was all thanks to Hao Pengyou. Because her own Spiritualization had taken nearly 6 days, longer than Chang Ying’s 5 days, he constantly compared her to Chang Ying, speaking of his great achievements, which made her quite familiar with this Chang Ying.
It was said that Chang Ying also came from a lower realm, taking 5 days to complete his Spiritualization. However, he was already 100 years old when he arrived on the Spirit Void Continent. Back then, many powers offered him olive branches, but he rejected them all. An individual without power or influence, he miraculously survived on this treacherous continent and, a century ago, he successfully advanced to Divine Emperor and then became the City Lord of Menhuan City, which was known as the Chaotic Capital. He then subdued the various forces within. Since then, he has lived reclusively, and although many knew of a person called Chang Ying, they had never seen his face.
Because of his legendary experiences, his appearance had also been mythologized. When Dugu Qianye looked at him, he wasn’t as fearsome as people outside had described, such as having one eye or horns on his head; on the contrary, he was even more handsome than the average man. It was just that his black robes, his calm gaze, and his slightly pursed lips indicated that he was not so easily approached.
"The time has come. Both parties shall confirm that the other’s Spiritual Beasts have not been tamed yet," Fo Qingyuan stood up and said.
She saw at a glance that Bai Xinyan’s Spiritual Beast was a level six Super Divine Beast and thought to herself, cunning. Then she turned her gaze to Dugu Qianye’s Snow Lion.
"Gasp!" She was startled at the sight. Chang Ying, hearing her exclamation, also directed his gaze towards Dugu Qianye and noticed the level seven Snow Lion, his eyes flickering slightly.
Bai Xinyan walked up to the Snow Lion. It opened its eyes and casually released its domineering presence, showing off its untamed spirit.
"A level seven Super Divine Beast!" exclaimed the crowd in the stands, "She actually chose a level seven Super Divine Beast!"
Bai Xinyan was also stunned and said, "You really chose a level seven? If you fail to tame it and it backlashes, then I won’t have to think of ways to punish you." He then turned to Fo Qingyuan and said, "No problem."
Dugu Qianye smiled and glanced at the Super Divine Beast chosen by Bai Xinyan, saying, "No problem."
"Since both of you have confirmed, the challenge match now officially begins." Fo Qingyuan finished speaking and sat down, chatting with Chang Ying intermittently. The City Lord of Longhua City interjected from time to time.
Dugu Qianye walked in front of the Snow Lion, placed her hand on its massive head, and then happily activated the Beast Taming Technique. She channeled her Spiritual Power into its head, searching for its Demon Crystal. Once found, she began to slowly envelop and invade it.
Bai Xinyan also went in front of his Spiritual Beast, placing his hand on the beast’s head. The postures of the two looked quite similar, but the Beast Conquest Technique differed considerably.
"Brat, how did you let her get a level seven Super Divine Beast? Can she handle it?" Although Shi Honggui was forcefully sitting in the stands, he couldn’t help but worry and ask.
"Master, just relax. When have you ever seen junior sister undertake anything without certainty?" Fen Qingran said.
"True," Shi Honggui thought for a moment and added. Although they hadn’t known each other for long, he had a fairly accurate grasp of Dugu Qianye’s character. Even he couldn’t help but admire the confidence shining in her eyes.
On the other side, the Bai Family members couldn’t help but curse as they watched Dugu Qianye: "Backfire on her, backfire!"
The process of waiting for the result was boring, and the spectators in the stands even started betting on who would win. Fo Qingyuan, finding it amusing, had someone set up a table at the edge of the stands and personally became the dealer in a betting game, loudly hawking, "Come on, come on, it’s time to place your bets! Those betting on the Beast Tamer Association’s leader to win, bet one to win five; those betting on Dugu Qianye to win, bet one to win ten! Come on, come on, it’s a rare opportunity, hurry up and place your bets! The City Lord himself is bankrolling, guaranteed security here!"
"Pfft!"
Many people were amused by Fo Qingyuan’s speech. Even those who hadn’t intended to bet now cast their wagers. After the betting time was up, only the Spiritual Master Association’s people bet on Dugu Qianye to win, everyone else bet on Bai Xinyan to win. It was evident that the difference in popularity was vast. Although some people supported Dugu Qianye, they were not confident in her strength, so ultimately, they still bet on Bai Xinyan to win.
"Any more bets? If not, we’re closing the stakes!" Fo Qingyuan called out for the last time.
A fair and slender hand placed a Crystal Card on the betting table on Dugu Qianye’s side, saying, "One million, betting on her to win."
"Oh, it’s rare for Chang Ying to take an interest in joining. Alright, one million, betting on Dugu Qianye to win. Kid, make sure to note it down," Fo Qingyuan said to the person keeping track beside her.
That casual demeanor was not at all ladylike, let alone befitting the grace expected of a City Lord. Yet, everyone on the Spirit Void Continent knew of Fo Qingyuan’s personality. They simply chuckled inwardly, with no one daring to say it out loud.
Fo Qingyuan returned to the judging panel and slapped Chang Ying’s shoulder, saying, "Rare to see you join in on such bets."
Chang Ying glanced at Fo Qingyuan and said, "You are the dealer, so I ought to give you some face."
"That’s the spirit. I’ll treat you to a drink later!" Fo Qingyuan said. "That lass has a type of liquor that tastes quite good. I got some from her place last time; I’ll invite you to try it! Hm, if I haven’t drunk it all by then."
Chang Ying smiled, not saying anything further.
Time quickly arrived at the next morning. To not make it too conspicuous, Dugu Qianye had already slowed down her taming speed. Yet, unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, Bai Xinyan was still persisting.
