Even though he was a 4-star apothecary, he had only obtained his emblem through Pill Debate. As for pill forging... he was completely clueless about it!
If the other party were to challenge him to pill forging on the spot, he would surely lose.
However, pill forging required a long period of time, and he had to prepare many medicinal herbs as well. Thus, it was unlikely for him to appear in the Master Teacher Tournament.
"In any case, his supporting occupation is incredible. As long as you reject his challenge, it doesn't matter what you compete in!" Ruohuan gongzi said.
Wei Changqing might be lacking in cultivation, but he specialized in his supporting occupations. Even though they didn't have the right to choose the content of the duel, they had the right to reject his challenge once.
While they were discussing how they should deal with Zhang Xuan, the Zijin Sect's side was filled with despair.
"This Zhang Shi has overcome many obstacles in his path. I fear that it will be difficult for you to defeat him!"
An elder of the Zijin Sect said with a deep frown on his forehead.
"Indeed, he doesn't seem to have any weaknesses. How can we compete?"
No one thought highly of this genius of their sect.
If it was anyone else, even Luo Xuan, they might stand a chance against him. But against this monster, no matter how they looked at it, they felt completely helpless.
"He is indeed invincible in the master teacher field, but I don't believe that... his supporting occupations are as formidable as his!" Wei Changqing narrowed his eyes.
He specialized in supporting occupations, so he didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to defeat the other party.
"I've asked around, and his four supporting occupations are 5-star appraiser, 4-star formation master, 4-star physician, and 4-star beast tamer!"
Wei Changqing counted with his fingers. "My supporting occupations are 4-star blacksmith, 4-star tea master, 4-star painter, and 4-star beast tamer! The only occupation that I have any interaction with is beast tamer. However, this is enough! "
"Enough? You can't be thinking of challenging him in beast taming, right? "The elders stared at one another." Beast taming is troublesome... "
In a master teacher competition, one had to have some interaction with the other party before one could compete. Otherwise, if one knew smithing while the other party didn't, it wouldn't be fair.
Even though Zhang Xuan had many supporting occupations, such as apothecary and painter, none of them had reached 4-star. The only interaction between the two of them was beast taming.
Zhang Xuan was not clear about the rules of this competition. He had thought that he would be challenged to concoct pills, so he had been worried for a long time.
However, Spirit Beasts needed to be in contact with Spirit Beasts day and night. Sometimes, in order to tame a Spirit Beast, it would take at least several years of effort …
On the other hand, the results of the Master Teacher Tournament would usually be decided within an incense's time.
Compared to this, it was a little hasty!
"Don't worry, I've already made preparations in advance. The path of beast taming will never fail!" Wei Changqing's eyes flashed.
"It's good that you are confident. However, if you really can't succeed, don't force yourself …"
"That's right. When you lose later, you must be more polite. When we return to the sect, I will apply for a reward for you!"
"If you really can't do it, just admit defeat now. That way, you can still maintain the dignity of our sect …"
Many elders did not have much confidence in him.
"…" Wei Changqing rolled his eyes.
Are you on my side or on Zhang Xuan's side?
It was one thing for the other party to not encourage him, but to think that he would lose for sure...
"Hmph, Zhang Xuan, I'll definitely defeat you and shut these old fellows up!"
Gritting his teeth, Wei Changqing roared frenziedly.
Clenching his fists tightly, he walked toward the dueling ring.
This duel was no longer just about the top ten. More importantly, it was about his … dignity.
He had to stand up for his dignity. He had to defeat Zhang Shi and prove himself!
…
On Dueling Ring D.
Looking at the young man before him, Wei Changqing gritted his teeth so hard that 'gege' sounds could be heard.
Zhang Xuan was bewildered.
This seemed to be the first time he had met this fellow. Why did it seem as though the other party had killed his father and snatched his wife away?
With a bizarre look in his eyes, Zhang Xuan probed, "Do we know each other?"
"I don't know you! However, I swear that I will defeat you! "
Wei Changqing roared. "I choose to compete in my supporting occupation, which is … beast taming. Do you dare to accept my challenge, Zhang Shi?"
"Beast taming?" Not expecting the other party to propose such a duel, Zhang Xuan frowned. "How do we compete?"
"Simple. Since you are a 4-star beast tamer, you should have your own tamed beast. Why don't we summon them over and give them an incense's time to interact with one another? Within this period of time, the one who gains the highest Loyalty Level will be the victor! "
Wei Changqing said.
"Exchanging tamed beasts and giving them an incense's time to tame them … Are you certain?" Zhang Xuan looked at Wei Changqing with a bizarre expression.
The other party's intentions were simple. You tame my tamed beast, and I'll tame yours. The one who gains the highest Loyalty Level of the other party's tamed beast will be the victor.
This was a common method used by beast tamers in a duel.
Just that … was this fellow really going to compete with him in beast taming?
"Of course!"
Wei Changqing sneered confidently. "Why? Are you afraid of my beast taming skills? Are you afraid of me? "
"Alright then!"
Hearing the other party's earnest request, Zhang Xuan nodded.
…
"Competing with Zhang Shi in beast taming? That fellow … Is he insane? "
Hearing the content of the duel, Zhao Feiwu looked at Wei Changqing as though he was a fool.
Didn't you see how Zhang Shi tamed the Demon Cinque Beast lasted less than two breaths? To compete with him … Aren't you just looking for a thrill?
She had seen those who were courting death, but she had never seen one who was courting death in such a manner …
The mouths of Pavilion Master Kang and the others twitched.
Even though they had never seen Zhang Shi taming beasts personally, Hall Master Han Chong of the Beast Hall had recounted the process personally during the examination.
Even the spirit beast that he was unable to tame for several years was tamed by Zhang Shi. Are you sure that you can win against him?
…
"This will be a battle. Wei Changqing is a famous beast tamer genius. It's said that he participated in the Beast Taming Competition and became the champion!"
"Indeed. I've heard that as well. Zhang shi shouldn't have agreed to this duel. Beast taming is different from other master teachers. It's fine as long as one is strong enough. More importantly, one must possess sufficient artifacts and means!"
"I'm afraid that the top eight will be in danger …"
…
Unlike Zhao Feiwu and the others, the other master teachers who were unaware of the matter had grim looks on their faces.
Beast taming was a troublesome endeavor. Not only did one have to possess sufficient treasures, one had to possess sufficient strength as well.
Otherwise, if one couldn't attract the attention of a spirit beast, how could one nurture its loyalty?
The League of Nations was clearly poorer than the Zijin Sect. In terms of beast taming, the chances of winning were much lower.
"Look, both of their tamed beasts are here!"
Amidst the discussions, a gust of wind blew, and two massive spirit beasts landed on the stage.
They were the tamed beasts of the Demon Cinque Beast and Wei Changqing.
Zhang Xuan turned his gaze over.
His tamed beast was a massive Beryline Spirit Beast. Its cultivation was around Transcendent Mortal 4-dan primary stage, a far cry from the Demon Cinque Beast.
"Is this your tamed beast?"
Wei Changqing thought that the other party's tamed beast was on par with his, so he was confident that he would be able to win the other party's loyalty. Who could have known that the other party would be so powerful? Wei Changqing's complexion turned awful, and he was on the verge of tears.
It was already an incredible feat for a Transcendent Mortal 3-dan pinnacle cultivator to tame a Transcendent Mortal 4-dan spirit beast … How in the world did you manage to tame a Consonant Spirit realm fellow?
"Un, you should start first. I'm in no hurry!"
Zhang Xuan nodded. Turning to the Demon Cinque Beast, he said, "Wei shi wishes to tame you, so you should cooperate with him!"
"Roar?"
The Demon Cinque Beast was taken aback for a moment. It turned its massive head to look at the young man not too far away, and a powerful soul energy burst forth from its body, threatening to burn him into ashes.
"I …"
Feeling the pressure, Wei Changqing's mouth twitched. His body trembled uncontrollably, and he nearly spurted blood.
This … If he couldn't even get close to it, how in the world could he tame it?
Flicking his wrist, Wei Changqing took out a jade bottle. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Brother Demon Cinque, this is the blood essence of a Transcendent Mortal 5-dan spirit beast. May I know if you're interested in it?"
Opening the jade bottle, a concentrated surge of spiritual energy gushed into the surroundings.
The blood essence of a Transcendent Mortal 5-dan spirit beast!
"How extravagant!"
"Indeed. This bottle of spirit beast blood essence should be worth at least a dozen middle-tier spirit stones!"
"It might even be more than that. To take this out, any spirit beast would surely have a favorable impression of him. Zhang Shi is in deep trouble this time!"
"Wei Changqing sure came prepared …"
Seeing how generous Wei Changqing was, a huge commotion broke out below.
The blood essence of a high-tier spirit beast was extremely attractive to low-tier spirit beasts. Countless spirit beasts were willing to submit to it.
It was no wonder why Wei Changqing dared to challenge Zhang Shi to a beast taming competition. It turned out that he had prepared this beforehand.
If Zhang Shi couldn't take out something even more valuable, he would probably lose this round.
"Roar!"
Upon seeing the blood essence of a Transcendent Mortal 5-dan spirit beast, the eyes of the Demon Cinque Beast lit up. Its thick claws abruptly reached forward to grab the jade bottle.
"Ah?"
Not expecting the Demon Cinque Beast to grab it so easily, Wei Changqing's lips twitched. "Don't be in such a hurry. As long as you agree to be my friend, I'll give this to you … W-what are you trying to do … The heck!"
Wei Changqing thought that he would surely gain a favorable impression of him with the spirit beast blood essence, but before he could finish his words, the Demon Cinque Beast's claws had already stepped on his head. With a light flick, the spirit beast blood essence in his hand was snatched away.
"You … return my spirit beast blood essence …"
Wei Changqing roared furiously, but before he could finish his words, the strength of the claws on his head abruptly increased.
Putong!
A huge hole immediately appeared on the dueling ring, and Wei Changqing was forced into the ground.
"I …"
Wei Changqing was on the verge of tears.
No matter what, he was a 4-star master teacher and a reputable beast tamer. To be trampled into the ground by a spirit beast … The stifling feeling he felt left him on the verge of going insane.
"Listen to me … As long as you let go of me, I still have some good stuff … Pu!"
Gritting his teeth, before he could finish his words, the strength of the claws on his body increased once more. His ribs creaked, and a mouthful of blood spewed from his mouth.
In the next moment, he felt a sharp pain on his finger. His storage ring had already been taken away by the massive spirit beast.
"You …"
Wei Changqing was on the verge of going insane.
No matter what, you are a Consonant Spirit realm spirit beast, and you possess intelligence of your own. To snatch it from me forcefully, isn't that a little too much?
While Wei Changqing was spurting blood, he heard the roar of the Demon Cinque Beast from above. Following which, Zhang Shi's bizarre voice sounded, "My Demon Cinque Beast says that … as long as you submit to it and become its human pet, it will return your storage ring to you …"
"Submit? And … human pet? Pu! "
Wei Changqing's vision turned dark.
Brother, I'm here to tame your beast, not to have it tame me …
