Chapter 205 - 130 No Way At All_2
"All big shots..." Upon seeing these three, both second and third generation Beast Trainers in the audience couldn't help but sigh.
Among them, Qin Ming, the first group leader of the Official Guide Group, was acclaimed as the strongest second generation in Xia Country and was the fourteenth phantom person whose strength came closest to the top-tier first generation.
Chu Yan, proficient in nutrition, cooking, cultivation, and breeding... Although he was not the top expert in every domain, he was known as a 360-degree professional with no blind spots. In each domain, he ranked within the top three in Xia Country, a true all-around breeding master.
As for Kong Xi, the only female dean among the three, she was even more extraordinary. She had no interest in combat, but was very interested in researching the history of the Beast Training Empire. She had entered the Breakthrough Secret Realm many times to level up, and was currently the Beast Trainer with the most attempts in Xia Country—a total of 21 times. She wandered through different historical stages and was proficient with various Beast Training schools and systems.
The three deans did not give long speeches. After a greeting, Xu Pingze announced the start of the freshman competition.
"Next, we'll begin today's first match, with Combat Department freshman Zhou Mo versus Forging Department freshman Lu Ran!"
After Xu Pingze finished speaking, two young people dressed in black emerged from buildings on both sides of the venue and headed towards the ring.
Their appearance immediately sparked intense discussion at the scene.
"I didn't expect the first match to feature Dog King Zhou Mo. He's been very high-profile this week, almost becoming the leading figure of the fourth generation Beast Trainers."
Since Zhou Mo had topped the Divine Pet List, he had been frequently active online. The momentum of the Circus Guild Number Three in Infinite City at one point seemed to overshadow the other three guilds. Everyone became acquainted with him because of his high profile recently.
Compared to Dog King Zhou Mo, everyone was also familiar with Lu Ran, the first known to have utterly defeated an examiner. Lu Ran, in everyone's mind, was just like Zhou Mo, a powerful fourth generation who had previously been unknown.
"Heh, that Zhou Mo guy probably doesn't know his opponent is Passerby A," scoffed a freshman player from Pluto. But even if he knew, he surely wouldn't care.
After all, the Pet Beasts on the Divine Pet List no longer seemed so strong to everyone, only second tier at best. No matter how strong the Sword-Bearing Dog was, it was just a high-end extraordinary race. How could it compare to the high-end Dominator Species of the Hellhound? How could it compare to the King of Sudden Death, which could crush an examiner's Pet Beast with a single blow?
Compared to the identity of Passerby A, what drew more attention was the feat of Lu Ran instantly killing the examiner's Pet Beast.
"This guy, his second Pet Beast is also so strong. I wonder if he can beat Dog King..." Bai Ling, another seeded contestant, watched Lu Ran on the field with a blazing look in her eyes.
Those who knew Lu Ran were sweating for him because Dog King was indeed not weak.
Of course, aside from the fourth generation, there was also a group of Predecessor Beast Trainers who knew Lu Ran well.
Some from Jinling, for example, knew that this was the famous Green Sea King, a super fourth generation specially granted privileges by Doctor Gu.
"Finally, we meet." Chu Yan also smiled from the VIP platform. After hanging up the phone with Master Lin yesterday, he had already made contact with Lu Ran. The two had agreed to talk about the position after the competition was over.
He felt like laughing now. Although he didn't know how the match between Lu Ran and Dog King would go, the idea of a Forging Department new student, who was a professor in the cooking department, going up against a Combat Department new student seemed amusing...
Under the gaze of all sides.
Zhou Mo was already standing opposite Lu Ran, and they started chatting.
"Forging Department?"
The first words Zhou Mo said upon entering the ring were these. He was apparently surprised by Lu Ran's choice of the Forging Department major.
Not just him, many spectators were also quite astonished. After all, with Lu Ran showing such monster-like prowess during the preliminary assessments, how could he not be a combat prodigy?
Study forging? Even studying breeding would sound like it would provide a bigger boost to Pet Beast cultivation.
Plus, in such a case, shouldn't he not waste energy and focus on combat instead?
"Yes, forging." Lu Ran smiled, not offering much explanation.
Xu Pingze, the judge, looked at the two black-clad young men on the field, waved his hand, and said, "Both sides, ready."
The next moment, he declared the start of the battle!
On the field.
Lu Ran remained composed, and Zhou Mo was also calm. Without further talking, they began summoning their Pet Beasts!!

"Hellhound!!"
"King of Sudden Death!!"
Boom!!
Both sides summoned only one Pet Beast each, and both beasts exuded impressive auras.
The King of Sudden Death, with its red eyes fixed on its opponent, had a powerful presence, with lightning seeming to course in its gaze, confronting the hellhound's Eye of Fear.
The immature Dragon's Momentum it emitted allowed it to face the terrifying gaze of the opponent without any fear.
"Roar!!!" The King of Sudden Death howled.
"Errr Wooooo!!!!" The Hellhound also ignited its limbs with black flames and emitted a terrifying cry. Its all-black appearance, with two red heads and sharp teeth, looked truly fearsome, and its mere appearance had several fourth-generation Beast Trainers in the audience swallowing nervously.
"Both beasts have been cultivated quite well!!"
Simply from the clash of auras, many Predecessor Beast Trainers were impressed.
The quality of the fourth generation's talents surpassed that of their peers from the same period by a lot.
"Zhou Mo's Hellhound, fused with the Attribute of Eye of Fear, can cause the opponent to subconsciously feel terror, lose the will to fight, or even experience hallucinations..."
