Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 260 The Heavenly Mountain Tournament Begins

Lin Chen thought this was a good thing, as it meant that the high-ranking officials of both races were actually taking a wait-and-see and restrained attitude towards the war.

Four years ago, Lin Chen experienced a beast tide battle, and the tragic scene in Nine Star City was still vivid in his mind.

War is definitely not a good thing for ordinary people.

Two days later, both races announced their representatives for the conference. The Heavenly Capital sent Yin Shi, the second head of the Yin family, one of the four great families, while the Demon Race's representative was the Dragon Scorpion King.

Rumors have it that both the human and the demon have arrived in Heavenly City and met to discuss the upcoming Heavenly Mountain Conference.

On the third day, the two races indeed announced that the security work for this conference would be undertaken jointly by both races, and anyone who deliberately caused trouble or stirred up trouble during the conference would be severely punished, with serious offenders facing the death penalty.

These words shocked the world, and many who were eager to make a move dared not show their faces again.

On the fourth day, Tian Shu Pavilion announced the competition rules for this Tianjie Mountain Tournament via the guild machine:
[First, a title defense system: Humans and demons can send their own players to defend their titles, and the winner will temporarily become the temporary title holder.]

[Secondly, there is no time limit; the contestant who wins five consecutive matches becomes the final champion.]

Third, the temporary champion will receive a three-day rest period after winning a match.

Fourth, if no challenger issues a challenge for more than six days in any arena, the temporary champion will become the final champion.

Lin Chen was not surprised when the detailed rules were announced.

This rule is reasonable; five matches can completely eliminate those who try to cheat.

However, a problem arises: since it is a challenger system, the first person to go out will inevitably be at a disadvantage, and others can develop targeted tactics against the temporary champion.

In this situation, winning five consecutive games is actually very difficult.

This time, Lin Chen will only be sending Xiao Bai into battle, so Lin Chen only needs to pay attention to the situation in the level 40 arena.

The Grand Elder gave the same advice as Lin Chen: observe first.

Unlike the Beast Fighting Tournament, the Heavenly Mountain Tournament doesn't have pre-arranged opponents. The three-day rest period is neither too long nor too short.

The simplest yet most insidious tactic is the war of attrition.

First, we'll thoroughly study you, then send out players specifically designed to counter you, and finally, we'll send out top-seeded players to end the competition.

The competition began two days later, and the Grand Elder also told Lin Chen that Sun Ji had already taken the medical team to Tianjie Mountain ahead of them.

To ensure the health of the contestants' spirit beasts, Tian Shu Pavilion hired the Sun family at great expense to help.

Actually, the Grand Elder came here first to discuss this matter with Sun Ji.

“Let’s set off tomorrow as well,” the elder said.

Lin Chen nodded.

Since the Beast Fighting Tournament, Lin Chen has become very popular, and many people are looking forward to his return.

After Lin Chen returned to his room, he summoned Xiao Bai.

After the last upgrade, Xiaobai did not continue meditating, but instead focused on daydreaming and skill training.

Unfortunately, as of now, Xiaobai has not improved his skills.

Lin Chen also solemnly explained some details to Xiaobai. The importance of this competition even surpasses that of the Beast Fighting Tournament, so it is inevitable that everyone should do their best.

However, life comes first.

The next day, Lin Chen followed the Grand Elder to the Heavenly Realm Mountain. Riding a crane, he could see the entire Heavenly Realm Mountain from high above.

At this moment, quite a few people have arrived at Tianjie Mountain. Although it is a mountain, many houses have been temporarily built here.

At the center of this mountaintop, seven enormous arenas were built; these were all the arenas for this competition.

As soon as the Grand Elder landed with Lin Chen, several exclamations were heard. Someone recognized Lin Chen and immediately felt a great sense of relief.

"I wonder what level his ox is."

"He may have already passed level 40." "Hopefully, one of his spirit beasts will participate in the level 30 competition, and the other in the level 40 competition."

"Haha, we can't just target one person to fleece them."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but Lin Chen didn't put on airs. After greeting them, he followed the Grand Elder to the camp.

After successfully settling in, Lin Chen went to his accommodation to put down his luggage. When he turned around, he heard the Grand Elder and Wu Chen discussing their strategy.

Lin Chen was taken aback upon hearing this and said, "Senior Brother, you're going to go on stage too?"

“As a man of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom, it is only natural that I must make an appearance.” Wu Chen’s eyes were full of seriousness as he said, “Junior Brother, don’t worry, I’ll go ahead and scout the way for you.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen glanced at the First Elder.

Now he understood why Wu Chen had suddenly returned to the Spirit Academy.

The real purpose was to act as a trailblazer for Lin Chen.

"And I."

Just then, a voice rang out from behind. Lin Chen turned around and was both surprised and delighted.

Fang You and Zhang Suqing appeared from behind. When they came in, they first bowed to the Grand Elder and Wu Chen. Lin Chen then asked, "Weren't you going on a training expedition?"

“Fang Youke has always remembered this competition,” Zhang Suqing said. “We started heading here a month ago, but I didn’t participate. This time, Fang Youke plans to have the Nine Tribulations Beast participate.”

Lin Chen was also delighted to hear this. The three of them hadn't seen each other for a long time and chatted a lot. When Fang You and the other person learned that Xiao Bai was actually level 47, they both found it unbelievable.

Fang You's Nine Tribulations Beast is only level 39 right now.

The two didn't say much about it, because they knew that the resources Lin Chen could enjoy now were far beyond what they could compare to.

The next morning was the day of the competition, and when Lin Chen arrived at the venue, it was already packed with people.

A row of seats was placed on the left and right sides of the arena, where powerful figures from the human and demon races naturally sat.

"Lin Chen, look," Zhang Suqing pointed to the distance.

Lin Chen followed the gaze and immediately saw the demonic beast Zhang Suqing was pointing to, which was none other than the Ghost Hunting Wolf King.

"I didn't expect to run into it here." Zhang Suqing smiled and turned to Fang You, saying, "Hey, Woody, this is our old enemy. You can't lose."

Hearing this, Lin Chen was taken aback and asked, "The two of you?"

Fang You didn't say anything and turned her head away.

Zhang Suqing, on the other hand, said frankly, "We haven't stolen or robbed anything, can't we even date?"

Just then, a wolf howl rang out. The three looked up and saw that the Little Ghost Wolf King had also noticed Lin Chen and the others.

Recalling the time when Lin Chen imprisoned and tortured it, the Little Ghost Wolf King's eyes grew even colder, and it made a throat-slitting gesture towards them.

"Oh, getting cocky now?" Lin Chen sneered and patted Xiaobai.

At this moment, Xiaobai stepped forward, his level clearly displayed.

When the Little Ghost Wolf King saw that Little White was level 47, the spirit of the entire wolf became somewhat dispirited.

"Quiet!"

Just then, a loud voice rang out, and everyone looked up to see a person riding a golden dragon, walking through the air. This was none other than Yin Shi, the representative of the human race.

But Yin Shi appeared for only a second before a phoenix cry rang out, and a black phoenix appeared, accompanied by black flames.
"The Undying Phoenix!"

Someone recognized the other person at a glance and exclaimed in surprise.

The demon race's foundation is indeed no weaker than that of the human race.

Lin Chen, however, squinted and said, "It seems that both sides will have to flex their muscles before the official match."
