Qin Lang and his companions exchanged glances, clearly surprised by the sudden situation.
After counting the days, they had been in Lan Qiu Forest for two days, and this was their first time encountering other visitors apart from themselves.
“My name is Shen Qian, from Yue Hu City, and this is Qin Lang and Zhou Tianhao. They’re both tourists from Tianhua State.” Shen Qian kicked off the conversation with a smile, showing her knack for socializing, “Are you guys camping here tonight?”
“Yes, I read online that this open space is a good camping spot at night. It was only a short distance from us, so we decided to come here,” Bear Battle nodded, “Looks like you guys also chose this spot for camping tonight, eh?”
“Would you mind if we set up our tents here?” Shen Qian pointed to a spacious area nearby.
The area was rather large, offering plenty of room to erect several tents without intruding on each other’s space.
“Regarding this question…” Bear Battle turned and glanced at the two sisters behind him, seeking their approval.
“Excuse me, are you Zhou Tianhao, the recent winner of the cooking championship in Xieyu City?” Lv Qianqian looked at Zhou Tianhao by the campfire light and suddenly asked.
“Yes, I am,” Zhou Tianhao nodded. He then seemed to remember something and looked back at Lv Qianqian, “So, it’s you!”
“Brother Zhou, did you run into an old friend?” Shen Qian teased with an expression of interest.
“Right after I arrived in Mingjing Province, my first stop was Xieyu City, where I participated in the City-level Cooking Competition, and Miss Lv Qianqian was also a competitor there,” Zhou Tianhao explained briefly.
“I was eliminated during the scoring competition,” Lv Qianqian confessed somewhat embarrassingly.
Knowing their existing connection, the Lv sisters naturally had no objection to the arrival of Qin Lang and his friends.
Soon after, Qin Lang’s group swiftly set up their own tents and, at the invitation of Bear Battle’s group, they sat around the campfire to chat.
“Are all three of you also aiming to attend the upcoming City Youth Training Competition in Lanqiu City?” Bear Battle asked, finally unable to resist prying.
Eh?
Upon hearing this question, Qin Lang and his companions exchanged confused looks.
They had indeed heard about the City Youth Training Competition in Lanqiu
City when they met Zhou Tianhao in the forest. However, their presence in Lanqiu City was only because it was on their way to Crown Ling City.
“We’re just passing by,” Qin Lang answered indifferently, then changed the subject, “So, are you guys en route to Lanqiu City for the Youth Training Competition, passing through the forest?”
“Actually, no,” Bear Battle shook his head, “We have already arrived in Lanqiu City. We came to Lan Qiu Forest to complete the Spirit Executor’s challenge.
“The Spirit Executor of Lanqiu City, Mr. Cheng Kang, set a task related to trees. We need to complete the designated mission in the forest.
“I see,” Zhou Tianhao said, as if coming to a realization, “When I was in Lanqiu City, I seemed to have heard that the Spirit Executor’s challenge is quite interesting.”
“Speaking of which,” Zhou Tianhao suddenly smiled and turned to Qin Lang and Shen Qian, “I’ve already exceeded the age limit for the Youth Training Competition, but both of you could try participating.
“I’ll pass,” Shen Qian waved off the suggestion confidently, “I’m not interested
in any physical combat.”
“As for me…” Qin Lang pondered for a moment, “I could participate, but wouldn’t it be too late now?”
“There’s still time!” Bear Battle cheerfully interjected, “The official launch of Lanqiu City Youth Training Competition is in seven days, and there are five days left for registration. As long as you make it to the city center of Lanqiu City within these five days and pass the examination of a Spirit Executor, you re good.”
“Since you’re also participating, that means Qin Lang would be your competitor, right?” Shen Qian playfully teased, “You don’t seem to mind having an extra opponent at all! Qin Lang is really strong!”
“No problem,” Bear Battle looked at Dan Bao and Spicy, laughing, “You didn t know this, but I heard that there’s a very strong competitor in this Youth Training Competition at Lanqiu City.”
“One of his two Food Spirits has already reached three stars, and the other is not far from three stars either,” Bear Battle shrugged, “According to the rules of awarding Starstone at different stages of the Youth Training Competition, he could potentially promote his second Food Spirit before the competition ends.
“That powerful?” Shen Qian said, amazed.
Her Shrimp Ball had reached three stars, but Piggie Squad still had a way to go.
However, Shen Qian immediately felt that her concern was unnecessary.
After all, she was not participating in the Youth Training Competition.
“Yeah, that powerful,” Bear Battle said with a helpless expression, “so it’s pretty hard to win the championship in this edition of the Lanqiu City Youth Training Competition. It’s all about participation.”
Only the champion of the City Youth Training Competition could qualify to advance to the provincial level. Although there were prizes for non-champions, only the champion could advance.
“No wonder you don’t mind Qin Lang entering the competition,” Shen Qian giggled, patting Qin Lang’s shoulder, “Qin Lang, you must give it your all. Even if they have double three-star Food Spirits, we will still beat them!”
“Easy for you to say,” Qin Lang rolled his eyes in exasperation, “I am also in it for the participation, once I have enough training competition points to exchange for the Skill Stone, I’ll be satisfied. frёewebnoѵēl.com
Both his little companions were still far from reaching three stars, but it was necessary to prepare for the next Skill Stone they would need once they did.
Qin Lang was well aware of his own situation.
Although Dan Bao had mastered a fairly powerful combat skill— Psychomagnetic Flame Explosion-Spicy had yet to master any combined combat skills.
If they really participated in the Youth Training Competition, his only advantage would probably be the Flavor Value of his two Food Spirits reaching the maximum score of 200.
However, facing an opponent with three-star Food Spirits could be challenging.
Unless Spicy’s Lucky Bite Mark managed to produce some good fortune for them.
Sitting by the campfire, Zhou Tianhao watched Qin Lang and Shen Qian bicker, already planning in his mind to crank up the difficulty of Qin Lang’s combat training for the next day.
After chatting for some time, as night fell, everyone felt a wave of sleepiness wash over them.
They each retreated to their own tents, and time swiftly passed overnight. Nothing went awry this time. Lark obediently returned to his Star Vein, while Dan Bao and Spicy tucked themselves into Qin Lang’s arms and fell soundly asleep.
Under Jiela’s protection, the night was tranquil and safe, and before they knew it, morning had arrived.
Although calling it morning wasn’t quite accurate, since the sun hadn’t yet risen. freeweɓnøvel.com
After leaving a note for the still-sleeping Bear Battle trio, Qin Lang s group quietly arrived at the highest cliff in Lan Qiu Forest.
There were no trees on the cliff, which happened to face east, only soft grass.
Sitting on the cliff, the breeze carrying the scent of soil and trees gently brushed their faces, and a glimmer of dawn rose at the edge of the eastern sky. More and more light started to shroud the forest and illuminate the excited faces of the trio.
The sunrise in the forest was extraordinarily beautiful.
This beauty was faithfully recorded by Qin Lang’s filming equipment.
