The King of Beast Trainers

129  Chapter 93: The Sparring King_1

Gu Qingyi and Manager Ying could tell that Lu Ran had a big heart.

He could still joke around after experiencing such an ordeal.

Not to mention that the highest level Beast Trainer right now is just Level 5.

Whether the Legendary Beast Trainer level even exists is still up for debate.

But even if it does, what kind of Beast Trainer could be called legendary, one who contracts a bunch of legendary species?

"Stop fooling around!"

Gu Qingyi said, "Let's start preparing for the Breakthrough Secret Realm of the beginner stage."

"The difficulty of the Breakthrough Secret Realm is very random; when it's hard, it's harder than the Abyss Level, and when it's easy, you could pass with your eyes closed..."

"There's no way to predict what the breakthrough tasks will be like."

"When you have time, you can review the history of the Beast Training Empire, as the majority of the low-level Breakthrough Secret Realms take place in a world with a Beast Training Empire."

"That's right," Manager Ying said. "The legends of the Four Great Genesis Dragons also come from this world, although even for the Beast Trainers of this world, such tales are only legends, so your mother's message... finding a part of the Dragon of Death's body won't be easy."

"Is that so?" Lu Ran was startled.

Alright then...

Beast Training Empire... Lu Ran had seen this name several times in the background introductions of various Secret Realms.

It must be an ancient feudal state with a mainstream Beast Training civilization.

Since the Breakthrough Secret Realm is a reflection of human civilization, there must be "NPCs" with levels far exceeding those of the entrants—this might also be the difficult point that Doctor Gu and others were talking about.

Teaming up with them could mean a swift completion of the breakthrough tasks.

But making enemies with them might result in immediate death, quicker than anyone else.

This "NPC" is not limited to human projections; there could also be projections of extraordinary beings.

At this thought, Lu Ran fell into deep contemplation, feeling a bit troubled.

If the Secret Realm had a level restriction, whether it be the entering Beast Trainers or the life forms within the realm, all would be of a certain level; in that case, he felt that he and Mr. Husky would have a significant advantage.

But if it's a relatively complete world projection, then it's all down to luck.

"Don't be too nervous." Gu Qingyi, seeing Lu Ran lost in thought, said, "In most cases, it's pretty easy; only in a very few cases will bizarre issues arise."

"Okay!" Lu Ran nodded, he decided to take it one step at a time. No matter what, he still had to go in.

...

That day, Gu Qingyi left Green Sea City.

Having found a bodyguard for Lu Ran, she left with a more peaceful mind.

Armed with videos and a bunch of Skill Cards, Gu Qingyi planned to meet the strongest Beast Trainer in Xia Country at the moment.

He was also the president of the Xia Country Beast Training Alliance.

Moreover, he was the only one who had, at an advanced age, become a Beast Trainer and risen to the first-tier level.

Since Lu Ran was willing to entrust such invaluable resources to the officials, she had to secure some benefits for him as well.

"Who would have thought that the genius I casually stumbled upon would have such a complicated background," Gu Qingyi mused upon leaving Green Sea.

But that was fine, since Lu Ran was her man now; she wouldn't let the other higher-ups take him away.

Whether it was Lu Ran's exploration of armed evolution, his pursuit of Dragon Clan evolution, or his recent binding with the undead, there were many highlights and surprises about him. Among the fourth generation of Beast Trainers, Gu Qingyi felt that Lu Ran was the one she had the highest hopes for.

"They're all gone."

After sending off Doctor Gu, Manager Ying also left.

Claiming that she would stay in Green Sea City and look for an opportunity to open a store, she told Lu Ran there was no need to find her as she would always be watching over his safety.

"Honestly, I thought she would be providing close protection..." Lu Ran muttered.

Why couldn't she just live at his house... what was the point of opening a store? He couldn't provide...well, actually, he really couldn't afford it.

After the two had left, Lu Ran lay down on the sofa alone, sighing softly.

However, he quickly regained his energetic demeanor. He looked towards Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death and said, "You two, not bad at all."

Only when he relaxed did he remember the bravery Mr. Husky and the King of Sudden Death displayed during Earl Hong's assassin impersonation.

Lu Ran wasn't surprised that Mr. Husky was willing to risk its life for him.

But the King of Sudden Death, having been so afraid of dying, hadn't run away and instead fought alongside Mr. Husky. To be honest, Lu Ran was very moved.

Although he was upset that they hadn't obeyed his commands, at that moment he felt even happier than when he had longed for the undead Skill Card.

The most basic joy of a Beast Trainer, perhaps, is realizing that your Pet Beast truly cares for you.

"King of Sudden Death, I didn't misjudge you."

"Considering how hard you fought this time, when you really do die suddenly one day, I'll definitely use this Skill Card to revive you..."

King of Sudden Death: ???

"ROAR!!!"

The King of Sudden Death took a step back, shaking its head frantically; it absolutely would not die suddenly!

Don't think like that!

Mom told us to find the Dragon of Death, not for me to become the Dragon of Death!

"Woof!" Mr. Husky was only concerned about when it could take down that Vampire.

Even if it was an ally, since it dared to mock them like that, Mr. Husky definitely wanted to turn the tables.

```

"Level 51, it's already first-tier level. Even so, one still can't shake off Reaper, an organization stronger than imagined," Lu Ran pondered.

Previously, although he had been working hard to enhance his strength, there was no sense of urgency.

But now, thinking about it carefully, with the resurgence of spiritual energy bringing great changes to the world, dangers abound everywhere, and the need to rapidly improve one's strength... is pressing.

"Get King of Sudden Death sorted out, Mr. Husky, and we'll head back to Infinite City to continue grinding in the Abyssal Secret Realm and earn enough rare food expenses."

"You aim to learn 'External Energy Control' as soon as possible, and I'll aim to master 'Blizzard Sword Intent'."

"It's best if it's before we enter the Breakthrough Secret Realm..."

"Once we come out of the Breakthrough Secret Realm, we should be able to get the next Contract Card. At that point, we can contract King of Sudden Death and fuse it with the Red Lightning Trait."

"King of Sudden Death, your mission is to raise your Growth Level to 20 in these 40 days!"

"By then, I'll directly infuse you with two Attributes. Together with Mr. Husky, we'll dominate the newbie competition at Beast Training University and bag the most precious rewards."

"Let's set a small goal first, to become the strongest fourth-generation Beast Trainer."

Lu Ran felt that if he could secure the victory in the freshmen competition, he would probably be considered the strongest fourth-generation Beast Trainer in Xia Country.

As for the rest of the world... he would likely be among the strongest of the fourth generation as well.

However, Lu Ran didn't dare to say for certain that he could definitely secure the victory. He still needed to focus on training Mr. Husky and King of Sudden Death.

He took out his phone, not allowing himself too much idle time, and dialed another number.

He needed to request some resources from this newly parachuted chairman.

...

"Achoo!!!"

In a landmark skyscraper in Green Sea City,

in an office, Zhao Chen, the chairman of the Green Sea Beast Training Association, was reviewing a list of the city's younger generation of Beast Trainers.

Perhaps because someone was thinking of him, he sneezed.

Soon after, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in!" Zhao Chen looked up, and there was Lu Ran, the Green Sea King whom he had been wanting to see for a long time, finally making time to visit him.

Zhao Chen couldn't help but smile and said, "Lu Ran, you've finally come."

"I've been busy challenging the Secret Realms." Lu Ran smiled. He didn't mention the recent incident to the newly appointed chairman, since it wasn't something within Zhao Chen's capability to handle. It was better to leave everything to Doctor Gu.

"Uncle Zhao, I've arranged the matter you mentioned before."

"Really?" Zhao Chen was overjoyed. The Green Sea King truly lived up to his name with such efficiency!

He realized just how capable Lu Ran was. While other cities were still troubled by extraordinary beings in the wild, Lu Ran could casually summon several Advanced wild BOSSes to serve as sparring partners for Beast Trainers in Green Sea City. The Green Sea King indeed deserved his title!

"Of course. When the time comes, I will pick out seven powerful Mutant Beasts to take turns training the fourth-generation Beast Trainers of Green Sea City."

"Each of them has a distinct Attribute and strength above level 10, which should definitely meet your requirements."

"That's great!" Zhao Chen laughed. "With this, the Beast Trainers of Green Sea City will surely make a splash at Beast Training University."

Lu Ran smiled and said, "I hope so too. However, out of these seven Pet Beasts, six will also need to manage Green Sea City's wilderness areas, so their schedules might not be very flexible. But there's one Thunder Lizard that will be particularly unoccupied, so make sure to work it hard when the time comes."

"Find it plenty of opponents. If one person can't beat it, have several team up against it."

"In short, don't hold back."

"Er, sure!" Zhao Chen felt there shouldn't be any problem.

Beast Trainers usually team up when tackling the more powerful BOSSes.

It would be good practice for them.

"But about the food for these Mutant Beasts..." Lu Ran looked at Chairman Zhao Chen with a grin and said, "Especially that Thunder Lizard which will be working the most. Just make sure it's well-catered for."

"One meal of rare feed a day isn't too much to ask for, right?"

Although Lu Ran had decided to grind Secret Realms next to earn food expenses for Mr. Husky and King of Sudden Death, he felt it would still be difficult to supply two Pet Beasts at the highest scale.

After all, King of Sudden Death required Dragon Clan resources, which were absurdly expensive!

Therefore, he couldn't let King of Sudden Death remain idle. It would become a sparring king, training the Beast Trainers of Green Sea City, and the officials would foot the bill.

He would take care of the rare Dragon Clan feed, and Green Sea City would provide the basic rare feed. They would run on parallel tracks.

"Ah, this..." Zhao Chen was baffled.

A family lizard needing rare feed?

He couldn't even afford it!

But quickly, this old fox understood what was going on... was this the next Pet Beast Lu Ran had in mind?

"No problem!" Green Sea City, as a Special Experimental Area, didn't leave Zhao Chen empty-handed when he came over; he had applied for a large amount of starting resources. These resources were intended for the development of Green Sea City's Beast Training domain and for talent cultivation, so using them for Lu Ran's Pet Beasts was naturally no issue.

"By the way, do you want to take a look at the list of those from Green Sea City interested in applying for Beast Training University?" Suddenly, Zhao Chen picked up the document in his hand and asked Lu Ran.

"I plan to gather them this afternoon for a mobilization meeting."

"As Green Sea City's strongest fourth-generation Beast Trainer, would you like to give them a pep talk? Serve as a representative."

"Having a spiritual role model will definitely help them progress faster."

"Me? I'd rather not," Lu Ran quickly declined. "I have social anxiety." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Why don't you ask Fang Lan? She's more suitable to be that role model..." Lu Ran said. "What's the exact time? Shall I gather the Seven General Beast and start training them this afternoon?"

"The Seven General Beast?!?" Zhao Chen was startled, looking at Lu Ran. What was that name, what kind of organization was that?

"Slip of the tongue... I've been influenced too much by that Crow..."
