Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 33 The Corpse-Eating Beast's Secret Realm
"Brother, my Scaled Python's constricting ability is incredibly powerful. I'm already level eight and have awakened my second skill."

"Brother, are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

In the Monster Hunter Guild's assembly area, Qin Hao looked at the red-clad youth in front of him who had his eyes closed and spoke to him in a kind and gentle manner.

Unlike Lin Chen, who was tricked into joining, Qin Hao volunteered.

This is why Qin Hao hasn't gone to work for Lin Chen for the past month.

For the past month, he has been focusing on training his spirit beasts.

Normally, Qin Hao wouldn't have been able to pass the test, but coincidentally, his opponent was in a winning situation during the test. The spirit beast made a fatal mistake of underestimating its opponent, and Qin Hao's Panlin Python seized the opportunity to strangle it, securing the victory.

However, the recruitment rules are like this: a loss is a loss, and a win is a win.

There are nine official slots and six candidate slots for the combat category, and three official slots and two alternate slots for the information category.

The reserve slot also has Beast Spirit Pills, which is why its spirit beast can reach level eight.

Qin Hao understood that he was originally at the bottom, ranked fifteenth, and would most likely only make it to this round.

But since we're already here, we should naturally give it a shot.

The young man in red in front of me was named Cai Yuanji. He was the second-ranked fighter and had a level 10 spirit beast.

"Someone who got in by luck wants to get in here?"

Cai Yuanji speaks very directly, even with a touch of frivolity.

Three people nearby were laughing, and Qin Hao knew he had been tricked.

The other party had already assembled their team. Someone had told him that Cai Yuanji was short of people, which is why he came over.

Qin Hao was disheartened and completely lost hope.

The top-ranked player on the battle leaderboard naturally formed a team with the fourth and fifth-ranked players, creating a powerful alliance.

Cai Yuanji teamed up with the third and sixth place finishers.

As for information-related matters, Qin Hao didn't inquire about them because he couldn't possibly build his own team and become the captain, so he didn't care about those things at all.

Finally, Qin Hao had no choice but to join the team that was short of members:

The team leader is Bai Jiajia, one of only three girls on the 15-person roster, ranked 12th. The other teammate is named Sun Guang, ranked 13th.

The main strategy is to form a weak alliance.

"What about us information science students?" Qin Hao sighed. They were automatically teamed up, and he figured the information science students would definitely be on the bottom of the waiting list.

Sun Guang, a teammate standing next to him, said, "Our teammate is amazing; he's number one in the information category."

"Huh?" Qin Hao thought he had misheard.

The first place in the information category will definitely be snatched away by the teams ahead of me.

After all, information is crucial for finding the entrance to the secret realm, so seizing the initiative is extremely important.

"You don't know, do you? That guy didn't even go to the Deduction Realm; he won first place through his Deduction Skills."

"A deductionist?" Qin Hao asked curiously.

Sun Guang explained in detail, and Qin Hao was greatly shocked after listening.

Talent!
If I had known he also applied for information technology, perhaps he could have gotten a formal spot by chance and enjoyed the generous benefits.

"What's his name?" Qin Hao asked.

"Hey, he's here." Sun Guang pointed to the entrance, and Qin Hao followed his gaze, immediately freezing in place.

He misread it?
Lin Chen?!
"Hey, the number one in the information category has arrived."

Someone in the crowd shouted something, and everyone immediately looked over.

Many people started whispering among themselves. Those in the information field were already dissatisfied and would inevitably try to smear Lin Chen's reputation behind his back.

Lin Chen scanned the entire room, wondering how he should begin, when he heard someone calling his name:
"Lin Chen!"

Lin Chen looked in the direction of the sound and was also taken aback.

Qin Hao?!
He strode over and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I should be asking you, why did you go to the information group?"

Qin Hao was indeed surprised, but at the same time he understood everything.

No wonder others questioned whether Lin Chen's spirit beast was a plough-horned beast or some kind of information-type spirit beast. Actually, Qin Hao had considered asking Lin Chen to come over before, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. The mortality rate of monster hunters was too high, and it would be unethical to drag people into the trap.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Hao explained the situation here.

As they were talking, someone shouted, "They actually know each other; they're quite a good match."

Immediately, many people burst into laughter.

Lin Chen ignored them, and after learning the situation, he looked at the other two people and nodded.

Bai Jiajia and the other woman naturally dared not look down on Lin Chen; in fact, they were even a little envious.

These are official spots.

Even if Lin Chen is at the bottom of the rankings, he can still join the guild.

"Even if the top combat player came, they couldn't carry our team," Sun Guang muttered to himself.

Qin Hao, however, seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
Forget it.

Although Lin Chen is a bit abnormal, the two teams in front of him seem to be even more abnormal.

If Lin Chen had joined another team, with his abilities, he would still have a chance to become the Rookie King.

Taking these three scoundrels with you now is a sure path to certain death.

After getting acquainted, Li Zhen appeared and explained the rules:
"The secret realm for this actual combat is: the Corpse-Eating Beast."

"We've discovered a secret haven, and they're preparing to come out and harm people."

As soon as he began to speak, there was a murmur of discussion below.

The Corpse-Eating Beast is an even more vicious monster than the Poisonous Bee Beast. It feeds exclusively on humans and can also devour the spiritual power of beast tamers. They are high-grade mortal monsters, whose prototype is a toad, and they are extremely powerful in combat.

The secret realm that Li Zhen mentioned was discovered by Huang Xiaotian.

The Monster Hunter Guild regularly gathers information, locates hidden realms, and observes whether the monsters within them pose a threat to humans.

If it is found to be harmful, it will be eradicated immediately.

The monster in this Corpse-Eating Beast Secret Realm is a level 10 monster king. Last week, it tried to attack humans but was stopped, so Li Zhen used it as the subject of this practical battle.

“Each of your teams will be monitored by high-level Gale Beasts in the air throughout the entire process, and you will also be protected by high-level Beast Tamers. However, let me make this clear: if they make a move, you will be eliminated.”

"The rules are as follows: No one may attack each other before entering the secret realm."

"Fair competition, malicious team formation is no longer allowed."

"You can take action, but you cannot kill people or beasts."

"Can only bring their own spirit beast."

"Newcomers in the information category are not allowed to attack, and others are not allowed to harm information-related personnel or spirit beasts unless the newcomers in the information category take the initiative to attack."

"We will also announce the eliminated teams in a timely manner so that you know your ranking."

"Finally, congratulations to everyone on your great achievements."

After Li Zhen finished speaking, he scanned the entire room and asked, "Newcomers with questions can raise them."

No one raised their hand; the rules were very clear.

Lin Chen raised his hand immediately.

Li Zhen squinted. "It's you again."
You're such a troublemaker.

Lin Chen's previous scheme completely destroyed the image that Li Zhen had painstakingly built up over many years in the guild.

"President Li, can I bring it in? I promise it won't make a move." Lin Chen pointed to the little fox.

Lin Chen was worried about how long he would be gone this time, as he didn't know. The little fox was restless and couldn't eat or sleep properly without him and Xiao Bai.

The little fox, who had been feeling down, looked at his beast tamer with gratitude upon hearing these words.
Life really isn't the same no matter who you live it with.

"Whatever you say," Li Zhen said.

The others didn't care either; in their eyes, they weren't competitors this time.

Besides, the Flame Beast is only level five. Even if it makes a move, what can it do?

Their team was originally just there to be used as stepping stones.
