When the award ceremony was over, the contestants left the venue one after another. The one-week selection at the branch venues had officially come to an end. Next would be the competition for the spots at the main venue.
The 1400 young elites from the 12 branch venues would compete for the final five spots to represent the base city in the global competition!
Back at home.
His mother was crying tears of joy. She had seen Su Lingyue winning the Top 100 through the live broadcast at the Crescent District. She also saw the leaders of the Crescent District handing out medals to the contestants.
She would never have dared to imagine that her daughter would win such an honor.
Su Lingyue was thrilled as well. She was still far from the goal that Su Ping had set for her. Still, she had taken a step forward.
The warm atmosphere during the award ceremony had made her excited. She had truly felt the charm of honor.
Su Ping smiled at their excitement. He washed his hands and went back to the dining table to wait for dinner.
…
That night was destined to be a sleepless one.
Apart from the Crescent District, the Top 100 contestants from the other branch venues had also been announced. In an instant, the 1400 contestants had become the center of attention.
No matter what their backgrounds were, whether they were poor or unknown, they had all become shining stars that night. Their years of hard work had finally paid off.
Among them, the ones who shone the brightest were the favorites who had the potential to win the championship.
Then, it was time for the selection at the main venue. People were discussing the Top 10 and the favorites on the forums of the branch venues.
The champion was always the most anticipated and popular one.
On the Internet, the videos of the top 100 contestants in each division were everywhere. They could be easily searched. Among them, the videos of the top 10 contestants had extremely high views and received a lot of attention.
From the auditions to the arena matches to the Top 100 contestants.
Those who had performed outstandingly gained even more votes online. Those who had been mediocre and kept a low profile lost a lot of votes online.
On the other hand, some unknown contestants had successfully attracted a lot of attention through their stunning performances in the auditions and arena matches. Those contestants had made it to the top of the popular list.
…
Uptown, Liu family's house.
The house was brightly lit and bustling.
Outside, there was a jubilant celebration party for the clan. All the participating members of the clan were celebrating inside. They had even invited many famous celebrities, which made the atmosphere of the scene very lively.
Inside, some of the upper echelons of the family were tasting wine and discussing.
"That Qin Family is still the same as before, hiding their strength well. They only used an eighth rank Devil Abyss Beast to insta-kill everyone."
"We don't need to talk about the future family heads. They won't reveal their main battle pets until they reach the Top 100. On the other hand, have you seen the battle of the girl who is guaranteed to be the champion in that shabby store that's against our Liu family?"
"Yes, that dragon. I've asked several professors who specialize in dragons. I think it's a mutated Moonfrost Dragon!"
"The Moonfrost Dragon is one of the Top 8 dragons, which is quite precious. If the Moonfrost Dragon is their trump card, then things will be fine. If not, then things will be tricky."
The higher-ups were worried. If the Moonfrost Dragon was a secondary pet, then what was the main pet? They couldn't imagine it. Or rather, they didn't dare to imagine it!
Liu Tianzong darted a glance at the others. "Don't overthink it. Brother Purple Dragon observed her closely for me. That girl is just a fourth-rank battle pet warrior. She can't have a pet above the sixth rank, no matter how good she is!
Even a rare dragon can exert combat strength at the seventh rank, given its extraordinary aptitude. That is already the best of the best! "
"Let's exaggerate. Let's say that the girl has some kind of treasure that can enhance her spirit so that she can jump three ranks and control a pet at the seventh rank. But how much combat strength can a pet at the seventh rank unleash? The eighth rank is the limit!"
Hearing his words, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
"That girl … is at the fourth rank?"
"No … way?"
They knew that their family head wouldn't joke around. Still, they found it hard to believe.
Was that store out of its mind? Did they want a fourth-rank battle pet warrior to win the championship?!
They had underestimated the value of the championship!
It was only the championship of the Longjiang Base City's Elite League. That being said, it was the goal of all the major families. The ones competing for the championship were the future family heads of the major families.
Not even a battle pet warrior with a combat strength of the ninth rank could win the championship, not to mention an eighth-rank battle pet warrior, unless the battle pet warrior was more powerful than the average one at the ninth rank!
The selected candidates would represent their base cities in the global competition. The champions of each base city would be at least at the upper position of the eighth-rank or even the ninth-rank. Otherwise, even if they won the championship, they would only be eliminated in the first round on the mainland if they didn't have a ninth-rank combat strength. It would be meaningless.
"I thought there was a big shot behind the store. I didn't know that it was just a lunatic."
"I think not only the Liu family, but also the Qin Family and the Mu Family are being underestimated."
"Senior Purple Dragon is a titled battle pet warrior. He can't be mistaken when he is close enough, unless that girl has some kind of treasure that can hide her aura. But I don't think she has to use that to confuse us."
The other higher-ups heaved a sigh of relief. They felt that they had been worrying too much.
Liu Tianzong said calmly, "Next, we will have to go through a unified test to select one thousand candidates. The minimum requirement for the unified test is to have a combat strength of the lower position of the seventh rank. Later, we can 'appropriately' raise the girl's level to the eighth rank. Let's see how good she really is."
The others couldn't help but look at him.
It was not easy to meddle in the Elite League. Otherwise, their families would have sent people to stop and interfere.
But it seemed that … some connections had been made.
Everyone looked at each other and tacitly remained silent.
…
At the store.
Su Ping had cultivated in the nursing pen for a night. He felt his astral powers had improved again. He woke up early and heard the noise outside. He opened the door.
There were many customers outside the shop, and some of them were chatting with each other. They were all talking about the Pro League.
Su Ping slapped his head. It was a rest day for the Elite League and the competition wouldn't start until the next day. He didn't expect that business would come so soon after the break.
Su Ping was not used to the fact that there had been no business for days. He didn't open the door right away. Instead, he closed the door.
"Hey, sir?"
The customers waiting by the door didn't even get the chance to smile when they heard the door close.
Su Ping closed the door and opened the scroll at once. He shook Tang Ruyan out from the scroll.
Tang Ruyan was sleeping soundly when Su Ping suddenly threw her onto the floor. She woke up at once. She looked around alertly, only to see the familiar store and that hateful man.
Her tense body relaxed. She was upset at the thought that she was still imprisoned. She stood up and tidied her clothes. "Can you tell me in advance if you want to call me next time?"
"Go and wash up. We have a business today. Dress up. Maybe your best bootlicker will show up today," Su Ping said as he tidied up the counter.
Tang Ruyan seemed to have gotten used to being imprisoned. She had become an otaku in the scroll. If it weren't for the fact that she was a female, her beard would have been unshaven.
"A business?"
Tang Ruyan finally heard the noise outside after hearing Su Ping's words. Her eyes glowed. Finally, another business!
She was more excited than Su Ping. She didn't have time to scold Su Ping anymore. She ran to the bathroom and put on some makeup.
Although she said that she was going to put on makeup, she didn't actually have any makeup on. She simply washed her face and combed her messy hair so that it wouldn't look like a bird's nest.
