Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 567 - 359: 20,000 to 64—Bloody Elimination Rules
Entering the space gate, Lin Chen smoothly entered the parallel space.
It was Lin Chen’s first time in such a place, and Lin Chen summoned Xiao Hei. Sure enough, when the Big White Bear was summoned, its level rapidly rose, eventually stopping at level sixty.
"Do you feel any discomfort?" Lin Chen asked.
The Big White Bear shook its head.
It looked at its bear paw and conveyed to Lin Chen how it felt.
It didn’t feel any discomfort; this power wasn’t external, but inherent.
"It seems they were right. This place truly involves the power of Law Fragments..." Lin Chen thought with surprise.
To control Law Fragments and wield such powerful abilities requires an Immortal Beast.
The Combat Law of the Big White Bear is merely an Entry-Level skill, far from controlling Law Fragments.
"Thunder Lei Flower..."
When Lin Chen entered, he had seen pictures of Thunder Lei Flower, rumored to be a special Spirit Grass that grows under thunder.
It’s not extremely precious, but is often used as an auxiliary material in evolutionary formulas for thunder bears.
Lin Chen started searching for materials but quickly discovered a problem: there are indeed many Thunder Lei Flowers here.
Lin Chen found three stalks just from searching one hill.
But here’s the problem: the competition lasts a month, and at Lin Chen’s speed, he could collect ten stalks a day, totaling at most three hundred stalks in a month.
This quantity wouldn’t make it to the final list of 64 people.
"It seems Thunder City is encouraging us to act like wolves or to foster places where Thunder Lei Flowers can reproduce," Lin Chen said, sighing, then sat down and said to the Big White Bear:
"Stop looking. I’m going to take a nap; you keep watch."
"Roar!"
....
"Is Lin Chen giving up?"
Outside, the scene was broadcast live.
Even Lin Chen’s words could be heard from outside.
As a popular contestant, Lin Chen attracted a lot of attention.
After entering, almost everyone was very excited, eagerly searching for Thunder Lei Flowers, while few acted like Lin Chen, seeming to give up immediately.
Even when Lin Chen fell asleep, many people still paid attention to his crystal ball, though their numbers decreased once he fell asleep.
After all, no one seriously watches someone sleep.
Compared to Lin Chen’s tranquility, fights broke out in other places.
Some initiated battle, while others began forming teams.
But everyone knew, this time it was too brutal, only 20,000 people could make it to 64, and the final quantity of Thunder Lei Flowers would be extremely high.
So, forming teams was difficult, as no one could guarantee their Thunder Lei Flowers would secure a spot in the top 64.
Just an hour later, someone made a significant discovery, shaking the entire audience.
That person, extremely lucky, accidentally fell into a valley and discovered a cave filled with Thunder Lei Flowers, numbering perhaps a thousand stalks.
Their partner and family almost cried on the spot.
Those thousand stalks equated to a month’s harvest for others.
"It’s secure," said the young man, about twenty years old, his parents excitedly exclaimed.
But nearby spectators poured cold water:
"Not even a thousand stalks, even three or five times more wouldn’t guarantee security."
"Indeed, this parallel space is the largest Thunder Lei Flower production area of Cangling Ancient Country; there are plenty here."
The parents’ smile froze upon hearing this.
The lucky one harvested everything that day, contemplating whether to hide for a few days or continue searching.
Ultimately, his decision aligned with the spectators’; he deemed a thousand stalks still unsafe, so decided to continue searching.
But his luck seemed spent; upon exiting, he met Xu Yi.
Xu Yi wouldn’t spare him, immediately summoning his Spirit Beast: Fire Bear.
His Fire Bear was already level 64, evolved to the Divine Beast stage, named: Ultimate Fire Bear.
The Ultimate Fire Bear’s talent was immensely powerful; the lucky one was a decent fighter, thinking being on equal footing would result in a balanced fight.
However, he was defeated after only two rounds.
"I’ll give you everything, just don’t attack me."
The lucky one was frightened and handed over everything.
Xu Yi accepted it all and approached to find the other’s Space Token, saying: "I’ll break it for you."
The lucky one’s face turned pale, but he instantly vanished, followed by the referee’s timely announcement of his disqualification.
The lucky one then appeared on the square.
Unexpectedly, the parents rushed up, excitedly saying: "My son encountered Xu Yi immediately; this is impossible. You must have secretly informed him; this competition is unfair."
Others hearing this laughed.
If this were other cities, they might suspect the parents’ words.
But this is Thunder City.
Thunder City is famous for one fundamental reason: most of its people are upright.
The three major families have never violated rules in the Bear King Competition.
On the day, even family disciples engaging in underhanded practices were severely punished, including one person being ousted.
So mirroring the parents’ words, people treated it as a joke. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"It’s all just fate, good or bad."
...
On the second day, the competition intensified, with more people being eliminated.
Back to Lin Chen, enjoying himself, eating and drinking, even having thoughts of barbecuing.
"..."
"Is he really the genius Lin Chen? He doesn’t seem like it."
"Are you joking? Does Lin Chen need to prove himself to you?"
"Indeed, he’s fought in the Beast Fighting Conference, in the Celestial Realm Mountain Tournament, and exchanged a move with the Nine Netherworld Snake."
While some questioned Lin Chen, others immediately retorted.
Xu Pingzhi, sitting in the VIP area, seemed to see what Lin Chen was waiting for, and said:
"He truly is a smart man."
"Did Patriarch Xu figure something out?" asked Liu Jin, the Patriarch of the Liu family beside him.
"You’ll soon know."
Xu Pingzhi smiled.
On the second day, Lin Chen was idle, even encountering two people. Lin Chen didn’t rob them.
Many believed Lin Chen might have an idol burden, unwilling to be ruthless.
Some thought Lin Chen was too merciful, possibly unable to reach the end.
"Kindness won’t get you far," someone remarked.
On the third day, as Lin Chen drowsily slept, pondering what to eat upon waking, thunder boomed across the sky, and suddenly Lin Chen seemed invigorated, telling the Big White Bear: "Let’s go."
The crowd was perplexed as it started to rain thunderstorms in the balanced space, thunder rolling as many people sought caves for shelter.
But Lin Chen acted conversely, what could this mean?
This scenario wasn’t exclusive to Lin Chen; many heard the thunder and moved towards its direction.
"I get it, Thunder Lei Flowers love thunder, and thunder naturally loves Thunder Lei Flowers...."
"Where thunder strikes, there must be many Thunder Lei Flowers."
