From their conversation, Gao Peng learned that four out of the other five came from wealthy families. They were either the children of government officials or rich people, or their parents were powerful monster trainers.
The two commoner geniuses present, Gao Peng and Han Xiao, appreciated each other's talents.
Han Xiao smiled and said to Gao Peng, "On the day the exam ended, a few companies approached me to sign a contract. Did any of them approach you?"
Gao Peng was stunned. He frowned and thought about it. He didn't seem to have met anyone from other companies who approached him. Why was that so …?
From Gao Peng's expression, Han Xiao saw something and comforted him. "Don't worry. You're number one in Chang 'an City. After the results are out, there will definitely be companies who will contact you." Seeing Gao Peng's confused expression, Han Xiao tried to comfort him.
"Yeah, probably." Gao Peng guessed that his grandfather or Uncle Liu might have helped him stop the other companies from approaching him.
Han Xiao's familiar was a Celestial Ant. It was said that it had eaten something by accident during an adventure and mutated from a Black Armored Ant to this Celestial Ant. It meant that it was like a god descending from heaven.
Gao Peng glanced at it. It was a Level 21 Excellent Grade Commander tier familiar.
It was two and a half meters tall and five meters long. Its whole body was covered in golden armor. It looked majestic.
But in Gao Peng's eyes, this monster's real name was Golden Armored Demonic Ant. It had nothing to do with the Celestial Ant.
This was interesting. Could it be that its "patent" had been registered?
[Monster Name]: Golden Armored Demonic Ant
[Monster Level]: Level 21 (Commander tier)
[Monster Grade]: Excellent Grade
[Monster Attribute]: Metal
[Monster Weakness]: 1. No armor to protect its joints. 2. Hates pungent smells
It was very difficult to train a Commander tier familiar purely based on talent. Without background and resources, where would one get the elixirs to help a familiar grow quickly in the early stages? Even if there were, it would be a very small number of lucky people who found treasures in the wild. This was very rare. Although it was a little cruel, it was the truth.
Of course, this didn't mean that commoner monster trainers couldn't grow. They just needed more luck and time to give them more opportunities. As the saying went, the rich relied on technology, while the poor relied on mutation.
Gao Peng's ability only allowed his familiars to break through to the next major level without facing any bottlenecks due to their grade. It didn't directly give his familiars a faster growth rate.
The plane landed.
In front of him was a bustling city. From time to time, he could see planes taking off and landing at the spacious airport.
This was Gao Peng's first impression of Jiangnan Base City. It was a bustling city.
Jiangnan base city's other name was Capital Wu.
It was very close to Shanghai and Jinling, and was one of the top cities in China after the Cataclysm.
"Welcome to Jiangnan Base City," a sweet female voice said as the plane landed.
The trunk of the plane slowly opened, and the glaring sunlight shone in through the gap.
"Hey, that plane over there looks like a military fighter jet. Why are there so many fighter jets today?" A passenger in the airport terminal looked out curiously.
In the one hour that he had been waiting for the plane, seven or eight military jets had landed. The dark green fighter jets had dark blue veins, and their streamlined bodies gave off a high-tech vibe.
"Do you think there's going to be a monster tide near Jiangnan?" someone asked worriedly, frowning.
"It shouldn't be. If there's a monster tide, there should be a hint on the news," someone comforted him.
"I hope so …" the person nodded.
"You've all guessed wrong. There's not going to be a war. Those are all candidates who came to take the second round of the Huaxia monster trainer exam."
"How can they make such a big fuss over an exam? They even used military jets to pick them up. "Someone was speechless.
"Hey, you don't know this, right? Usually, there are only a few candidates in a base city. At most, there are a dozen candidates. These are the geniuses who were chosen from tens of thousands of candidates. The military naturally has to protect these geniuses." A young man beside him rolled his eyes.
"Uh … Choosing a few people out of tens of thousands of people would be considered the top few in a city's college entrance exam. They are indeed geniuses. This is not bad at all," the person who had asked the first question muttered to himself. "Hey, do you know why they came to Jiangnan Base City?"
"You should be able to see it on TV in two days." The boy cleared his throat and adjusted his collar. He rolled his eyes and tried to straighten his nose.
A middle-aged woman who had been watching suddenly interrupted, "Does someone in your family work in the government? Otherwise, how would you know all this? "
The boy's lips curled into a smile. You finally asked!
He took a deep breath and opened his mouth with a hint of pride.
"Ye Han! Why did you come here? You made us worried to death. " A girl in black sports pants with a ponytail ran over, panting. She was speaking to the boy in a bad mood. "Everyone was about to set off, but you were missing. If it wasn't for your familiar leading the way, you would have been lost today. Do you know that? Why are you so worrisome? I'm not your mother! "The girl's tone became more serious. This guy had already gotten lost three times on the way here!
A silver-white pig came out from the girl in the ponytail. It shook its head and sighed like a human. It was completely disappointed in its stupid owner.
Ye Han's face turned red. He kept waving his hands. "I didn't get lost. I just wanted to see what the monster trainers from other base cities looked like. Besides, a monster trainer going to the wrong place doesn't count as getting lost. This doesn't count."
This explanation seemed a little weak. The silver-white pig grinned and laughed, mocking him mercilessly. The girl in the ponytail couldn't help but laugh. The airport terminal was filled with a joyous atmosphere.
The atmosphere that they had worked so hard to create was gone just like that.
In the end, the girl in the ponytail said helplessly, "Don't wander off next time." She turned and left.
.....
Were these the other candidates participating in the competition? Gao Peng looked around at the candidates.
There were a lot of people. There were almost two hundred of them.
Fortunately, he had grown up in the Huaxia region and was already immune to the concept of crowds.
There were a total of fifty base cities in the Huaxia region. Before the Cataclysm, all second-tier cities and above were divided into base cities.
There were different types of familiars present, including most types of familiars that could be seen.
There were flying types, such as the Volcanic Vulture standing beside Gao Peng. It was about six meters tall, and it was emitting waves of heat.
Gao Peng thought that Silly would be scared and hide. Who knew that Silly would just lie on his head nervously and turn around. Through the Blood Contract, Gao Peng could clearly hear Silly mumbling, "I'm not fruit juice. I don't taste good. I don't taste good …"
