Gao Wu: Honey, don't cry, I'm truly invincible!

【Ding! 】

[New gains detected for the host. Talent - One effort, one hundredfold reward (triggered). Please choose to increase quality or quantity by one hundredfold.]

Needless to say, the quality is improved a hundredfold. After all, there is no difference between a hundred books of Primal Beast Taming Techniques and one book of Primal Beast Taming Techniques.

At Qin Su's request, the system immediately began to improve the quality of the Beast Taming Technique.

[Quality is being improved. This technology is quite complex and not yet fully perfect, so it will take some time to improve...]

The quality has doubled... The quality has tripled... The quality has quintupled... The quality has tenfold...

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host! The Primal Beast Taming Technique has been successfully upgraded one hundredfold. The Tier 1 Beast Taming Technique has been sent to your personal inventory. Please check your inventory.]

Qin Su quickly opened his personal inventory in the system and found a ball of light. He tapped it with his mind, and the ball of light immediately transformed into a stream of information, which flowed into Qin Su's mind.

Qin Su felt countless pieces of information surging in his brain. Although his mental strength had reached a very high level and his sea of ​​consciousness had been expanded to a very wide extent, he was still overwhelmed by the massive flow of information, which gave him a splitting headache.

He felt as if his head was about to explode, his eyeballs bulging out, bloodshot and terrifying.

Qin Su couldn't bear the pain and fainted instantly, collapsing onto the bed, completely unconscious.

I don't know how much time passed.

Qin Su opened her eyes groggily, feeling as if her head weighed hundreds of pounds more, and her neck was also feeling the strain.

It took him a while to adjust, then he shook his head vigorously and began to absorb the new knowledge in his mind.

After experiencing it for only a few seconds, he was shocked and his eyes widened. He immediately took out the storage device that Old Wang had given him and carefully compared it with the device.

"Heavens, no wonder the system said that Elder Wang's beast taming technique is a primitive product. The first-level beast taming technique is much more perfect than the primitive beast taming technique. If we use Elder Wang's beast taming technique to tame beasts, although the problem of the contract is solved, it relies too much on the strength of the martial artist."

"Only when a martial artist's realm is higher than that of a source beast can a perfect contract be formed. Even so, there is a limit to the number of contracts a martial artist can form. Basically, a martial artist can only form a contract with one source beast per realm. Considering all these factors, the Beast Taming Technique undoubtedly becomes somewhat useless."

"After all, all the source beasts I ride are weaker than me, so what's the point? Just to eat and do nothing? The quality is poor, which is bad enough, but the number is also small. So, using beast taming techniques to make a contract and then riding the source beasts is like taking off your pants to fart—completely redundant, with no difference whatsoever, right?"

"Even a first-tier Beast Taming Technique can be considered a comprehensive improvement."

Qin Su felt a surge of excitement as he experienced the power of the first-tier Beast Taming Technique.

The first-tier Beast Taming Technique allows one to contract with a source beast that is one realm stronger than oneself, and the maximum number of beasts that can be contracted is at least three.

That's way too exaggerated.

For example, Qin Su is currently at the Martial General level. If he uses the first-tier Beast Taming Technique, he could potentially have three loyal Source Beast bodyguards, equivalent to high-level Martial Marquis level.

"The only downside is that this thing shows a rather low contract success rate, only ten percent..."

"However, 10% is still a controllable probability range, which is much better than a completely uncontrollable success rate."

Qin Su muttered to herself, gradually becoming sleepy.

He stretched, glanced at the time—it was getting late—and absorbing the first-tier Beast Taming Technique had truly drained a significant portion of his energy. So, he simply lay down on the bed and immediately fell into a deep sleep…

The next morning, Qin Su woke up and, after thinking it over, decided to return to Xinghan City and give the Phoenix Blood Fruit to his girlfriend, Ning Qiushui.

Ning Qiushui naturally knew how precious the Phoenix Blood Fruit was. Although Qin Su appeared relaxed, she could still guess how difficult it must have been for him to obtain these Phoenix Blood Fruits, perhaps even at the risk of his life.

"Waaaah, Asu, you're so good to me."

Moved, Ning Qiushui threw herself into Qin Su's arms and kissed him with her soft, moist red lips.

Qin Su, a hot-blooded young man, could hardly resist the initiative of his beloved woman. Moreover, Ning Qiushui was not some ugly duckling, but a stunningly beautiful woman. Qin Su was immediately overcome with passion and picked her up to take her to the bedroom.

After their lovemaking ended, a day and a night had passed.

Qin Su supported her waist as she watched Ning Qiushui cultivate after consuming the Phoenix Blood Fruit, worried that something might go wrong while she was refining it.

However, after consuming a single Phoenix Blood Fruit, Ning Qiushui was unable to awaken her Divine Phoenix Physique.

She opened her eyes with a hint of apology.

When she looked at Qin Su, she bit her lower lip with guilt. She felt that she was too mediocre. She had eaten such a treasure as the Phoenix Blood Fruit but had not changed much. She felt that she had let Qin Su down.

"It's alright."

Qin Su said reassuringly, and then, to Ning Qiushui's astonishment, he took out another Phoenix Blood Fruit and handed it to her.

Before she could even ask where the second one came from, Qin Su felt that one wasn't enough, so she took out all the Phoenix Blood Fruits one after another.

Seeing the ninety-nine Phoenix Blood Fruits, Ning Qiushui's beautiful eyes widened, and her mind went blank. She stammered, "A-Su, when did Phoenix Blood Fruits become mass-produced? Am I seeing things? Why am I seeing such a huge pile of Phoenix Blood Fruits?"

Qin Su laughed and said, "Just eat as much as you want. If one coin can't awaken the Divine Phoenix Physique, surely a hundred won't?"

At the same time, he was secretly glad that he had the talent of reaping a hundredfold reward for his efforts, otherwise Qiu Shui would not have been able to awaken the Divine Phoenix Physique.

Finally, after consuming a full eighty-nine Phoenix Blood Fruits, a loud phoenix cry resounded within Ning Qiushui's body.

Qin Su also made Ning Qiushui eat all the remaining Phoenix Blood Fruits, and Ning Qiushui's Divine Phoenix Physique became stronger and more stable.

With the awakening of her Divine Phoenix Physique, Ning Qiushui, who was already incredibly beautiful, became even more stunning. Her body even underwent a second development, becoming more voluptuous and alluring.

Her speed of absorbing cosmic energy also became extremely terrifying. With just a little cultivation, she turned into a black hole, absorbing all the cosmic energy around her into her body.

Even Qin Su, who was standing to the side, felt as if her source energy was being drained away by her.

The terrifying Divine Phoenix Physique was successfully awakened just like that.

Ning Qiushui will also reach the same level as in her previous life in a shorter period of time.

After Ning Qiushui awakened her physique, Qin Su stayed with her for a while longer before returning to Tianhe Base City before the three days were up.

Shortly after he arrived at Tianhe Base City, Jiang Feichen called. Qin Su did not hesitate and rushed to the Tianhe Base City Police Station.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the Tianhe Base City Police Station, someone in a government vehicle parked across the street waved to him: "Xiao Qin, over here!"

Qin Su walked over, opened the car door, and saw a pair of perfectly curved long legs. The owner of these long legs was a beautiful woman in uniform with a rather aloof temperament.

Before Qin Su could speak, the woman sitting by the car door moved over to make room for her.

Qin Su quickly got into the car.

Inside the car, besides Jiang Feichen and the woman next to Qin Su, there were three other men and women in uniform, plus the driver and Qin Su, making a total of seven people.

"Dude, you must be the second-tier mentalist that Boss Jiang found, right? My name is Yuan Fei, I'm a senior martial arts master, and I'm also here to compete, but I'm participating in the youth martial arts event. Nice to meet you."

As the official vehicle slowly started moving, a young man sitting in the back seat spoke with a smile.

"Qin Su, Qin of the Qin Dynasty, Su of Gusu."

Qin Suchong nodded, his words concise and to the point.

"Yuan Fei is a little genius in our Tianhe Police Station, only twenty years old this year. The girl next to him is named Yan Ke, twenty-five years old, and she is also a senior martial arts master."

"Then there's Old Yang and Old Wang, who's driving. Old Yang's name is Yang Baoguo, he's 48 years old, and he's a senior military officer. Old Wang's name is Wang Zhenhua, he's 42 years old, and he's also a senior military officer."

"They will participate in the youth martial arts group and the senior martial arts group competitions respectively, aiming for high rankings."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiang Feichen turned around and introduced Qin Su, his words carrying a hint of boldness and confidence.

For the first time in over a decade, the Tianhe Base City Police Department has fielded such a formidable lineup.

Jiang Feichen is not worried about the martial arts group competition. The four people in the martial arts group are sure to get high rankings and high scores. He is only worried about the youth spirit master group competition.

He then continued to introduce Qin Su:

"Xiao Qin, sitting next to you is Xiao Ruan, Ruan Ning. She's twenty-eight years old this year. She's the only Tier 1 Psychic Master in our Tianhe Police Station. She just joined last year. This time, the Young Psychic Master competition is all up to you two. Of course, we'll have to rely on you even more."

"You absolutely have to get a place!"

If they can make it into the top ten and get a ranking, they will get points. And with just one point, Tianhe Police Station might be able to escape the fate of being at the bottom this time.

The competition is divided into nine base cities and nine police stations. There are four groups in total, and each group can have a maximum of two people from the same police station participating.

In other words, each project team can have a maximum of eighteen participants.

There are few people, but that doesn't mean there's less competition.

After all, these eighteen people had already gone through a round of selection before going to the Kyoto base city to participate in the national police competition. They basically had to have the strength to crush their colleagues in order to stand out.

It can be said that the eighteen people in each group are basically the eighteen strongest people selected from the national police force.

Therefore, it is actually quite difficult to get into the top ten of a certain group.

Tianhe Base City couldn't gather four groups, and no one from the able-bodied Mentalist project team participated, so the pressure to improve their score was quite high if they wanted to get out of the bottom position.

Qin Su glanced at the rules, thought for a moment, and said, "According to the rules, the third-place team in a group gets eight points, the second-place team gets nine points, but the first-place team gets double the points, twenty points. So if I just get first place in my group, wouldn't my overall ranking be secure?"

The car fell silent immediately.

Everyone stared at Qin Su in disbelief, especially the aloof beauty Ruan Ning, who almost choked on her own saliva.

He glanced at Qin Su with a speechless expression.

First place in the group?

If we can actually get first place in one project, then we can at least squeeze into the middle of the nine police stations.

The resources and support they received afterward were so abundant that the Tianhe Police Station, accustomed to poverty, could never have imagined.

But how is that possible?

Even Jiang Feichen, who fielded the current lineup for the competition, only had the ambition to reach eighth place and escape the bottom spot of ninth.

First in the group........

Qin Su really dares to think big.

All they talk about is getting first place. Do they really think getting first place is as easy as cabbage?

Even if he's a second-tier mentalist, so what? Whether he can even make it into the top ten is a huge question mark!

After all, the mentalists sent by the other eight police stations had all gone through a genuine elimination and screening process.

And what about the two of them?

To put it nicely, they were guaranteed a spot in the group; to put it bluntly, they were just there to make up the numbers.

In any case, Ruan Ning had prepared herself mentally, knowing that her strength as a first-level mentalist was simply not enough, and that her trip to the Kyoto base city was just a paid vacation.

Is it really that hard to get first place?

Seeing everyone looking at him strangely, Qin Su said with some bewilderment, "With my strength as a third-tier mentalist, I really don't think it will be difficult to get first place."

No one spoke; they silently turned away, secretly thinking, "Whether it's difficult or not, you'll know once you try it yourself."

Don't let yourself be so upset that you cry. They won't have the time or energy to comfort you. You'll just have to cry it out yourself.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

As the special plane slowly landed, we arrived at Kyoto base city.

Jiang Feichen first led Qin Su and her group to dinner. After dinner, they took a taxi to the competition venue for the next day to familiarize themselves with the environment. Finally, he led everyone back to the hotel they had booked in advance to rest.

The competition venue is located in the largest martial arts arena in Kyoto base city. This arena has an astonishing area and can accommodate 200,000 spectators at the same time.

Of course, the National Police Skills Competition is an honor within the police force. Apart from police officers and high-ranking leaders in other related industries, ordinary people are generally not qualified to attend.

Even so, the martial arts arena, which can seat 200,000 people, still had an astonishing attendance rate, with tens of thousands of police elites coming to watch the battle.

After all, the strong competitors are basically police stars, so it's not surprising that they have a fan base.

The next morning, before dawn, Qin Su opened her eyes and woke up.

When he got up, he was surprised to find that everyone at Tianhe Police Station had already washed up, dressed, and even eaten breakfast, and was already preparing to go to the Kyoto Martial Arts Hall.

This attitude is far too serious and earnest; it seems the national police skills competition holds great weight in their hearts.

Qin Su wasn't disrupted by them. She finished getting ready comfortably, and only set off with them when the first rays of dawn broke through the darkness.

When Qin Su arrived at the Kyoto Martial Arts Hall, he was speechless to find that even though their Tianhe Police Station had arrived the earliest, the Kyoto Martial Arts Hall hadn't even opened yet.

It took a full hour for the officers from the nine police stations to gradually arrive. Then, after another half hour, an imposing old man in uniform, accompanied by a group of equally dignified elderly men, slowly walked in.

The old man was clearly of high rank and power. The police badge on his shoulder was different from others. It had the national emblem as a base and was surrounded by olive branches. Qin Su had some understanding of this. This seemed to be the highest police rank that a policeman could reach.

In other words, this old man is already a national-level figure.

Qin Su curiously sensed the old man's strength and was surprised to find that the old man's strength was unfathomable.

When he faced this old man, he felt as if he were facing his teacher, Lü Feng.

"So strong!"

Qin Su remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she was secretly alarmed.

After the elderly man arrived, he began to greet the officers from the nine police stations present one by one, his smiles and laughter creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

When they reached the Tianhe Police Station, the old man paused slightly and chuckled, "Young Jiang, seven people from your Tianhe Police Station have come this year. Did you manage to recruit someone to participate in the Spiritual Master competition?"

Jiang Feichen stepped forward, gave a sharp salute, and then, standing ramrod straight, said respectfully, "Yes, Commander-in-Chief, but we still don't have enough people. We can only participate in the competition for three project groups."

The old man hummed in agreement and said encouragingly, "Tianhe Base City is still too remote. It's already quite an achievement to recruit psychic masters. Under your leadership, the Tianhe Police Station has improved with each term, which is already very good. Don't worry, even if your Tianhe Police Station continues to rank last this year, I will have my subordinates allocate more resources to you."

Jiang Feichen said earnestly, "Don't worry, Chief of Staff, this time, our Tianhe Police Station will definitely not be at the bottom."

"Oh? You're that confident?"

The old man raised an eyebrow, then glanced at the participants from Tianhe Police Station, paying particular attention to Qin Su and Ruan Ning, before shaking his head and smiling.

"Having confidence is a good thing. When it comes to getting things done, the worst thing is to have the ability but not the confidence. Of course, having confidence but not the ability is also no good. You need to have both ability and confidence. That's a good thing. Keep it up!"

After saying that, he patted Jiang Feichen on the shoulder encouragingly and walked away.

Although not explicitly stated, the old man implied that the Tianhe Police Station had nothing but inexplicable confidence, and therefore no confidence in the Tianhe Police Station, which meant no confidence in Qin Su and Ruan Ning.

The other participants from the other eight police stations also looked at Qin Su and his companion with curiosity. They quickly curled their lips, thinking that one was only a first-level mentalist and the other couldn't even sense the fluctuations of mental power, so they probably weren't that powerful.

Sigh, the Tianhe Police Station is really in a sorry state. I don't know where they found these two oddballs to fill in.

It's better than before, though. The Tianhe Police Station used to be so small that they couldn't even field a single first-tier mentalist.

It became nothing more than a source of amusement for the other eight police departments during their leisure time.

Although this year's Tianhe Police Station is still a bit of a laughing stock and still can't escape the fate of being at the bottom, it has at least made progress.

Feeling the sympathetic glances from the other police officers, Ruan Ning lowered her head, feeling somewhat ashamed.

Yuan Fei, Yan Ke, Yang Baoguo, and Wang Zhenhua clenched their fists and cheered themselves on. Since the Spiritual Masters group couldn't be relied on, the Martial Arts group had to show their attitude and display their prowess.

This year's national police skills competition must make other police stations look at Tianhe Police Station with new eyes.

I'd rather fight for my pride than for a steamed bun.

So what if no one believes in them? They're determined to prove themselves the best.

Qin Su, however, didn't care.

As a genius third-tier mentalist, he came here purely to bully the kids. He wouldn't take the group of mentalists in the youth mentalist group, who weren't even third-tier, seriously.

After a lengthy opening ceremony, the competition officially began amidst the enthusiastic cheers of tens of thousands of spectators.

Yuan Fei and the others got up and went to report to their respective project teams.

Qin Su and Ruan Ning also got up and walked towards the Youth Mentor Group.

At this time, the young spiritual instructors from the other eight police stations had all arrived and started lining up.

"Lin Tian, ​​twenty-five years old, a second-tier mentalist!"

"Dai Hao, 27 years old, Level 2 Spiritual Master!"

"Yang Fan, 29 years old, Level 2 Spiritualist!"

As each young police officer announced their age and abilities, allowing the referee to register them, the audience cheered.

Unfortunately, duels between spiritual practitioners often attract more attention than those between martial artists.

After all, the number of mentalists is extremely small, and their combat power is far too comprehensive and terrifying.

To give an example, even if both are at the level of 10,000 kilograms, the combat power that 10,000 kilograms of mental energy can exert is much stronger than 10,000 kilograms of physical strength. It can even utterly crush a martial artist with less than 100,000 kilograms of physical strength.

Spiritual practitioners are really that exaggerated.

However, there are far too few mentalists, and it is extremely difficult for them to improve.

For a martial artist, if they are in their early twenties and have a little talent, they can reach the warrior level. If they have good talent, they may even reach the martial master level.

But it's different for mentalists. The transition from the first to the second level is relatively simple, but the transition from the second to the third level is like an insurmountable chasm. Ninety-nine percent of mentalists fail at this stage.

Basically, most mentalists who reach the third level are at least forty years old.

This is only if you have good talent. If you have poor talent, you won't have a chance at all. You won't even be able to touch the threshold of the third tier.

After the others in the same group finished registering, Qin Su and Ruan Ning also went up. When they heard that Ruan Ning was actually the only first-level mentalist in the youth mentalist group, and that she was already twenty-eight years old, the whole audience booed.

This is a classic example of someone with absolutely no talent, yet they managed to make it to the final round of the national competition. It's just too ridiculous.

The other contestants in the same group also looked over in surprise, but when they saw that they were from the Tianhe Police Station, they understood and stopped paying attention.

They understand that we come from a remote, small place, and they're just here to broaden our horizons.

"Qin Su, should I not have come?"

Ruan Ning was somewhat dejected. She had been mentally prepared, but seeing how weak she was and how big the gap was between her and the other contestants, she was still ashamed to face anyone.

Qin Su just smiled and said to her, "It's okay, just relax and relax. I'm here. This group's first place will definitely go to our Tianhe Police Station."

Ruan Ning just smiled bitterly upon hearing this, taking it as Qin Su saying some unrealistic things to comfort and encourage herself.

Because Qin Su didn't deliberately lower her voice, the other contestants in her group also heard her bold words.

For a moment, the sixteen people almost laughed, feeling that Qin Su was simply being arrogant.

First, none of them dared to say they would definitely take it; they only dared to say they would do their best.

A guy from a small place like Tianhe Base City is so arrogant. Ignorance is bliss.

Under the silent, mocking, or indifferent gazes of the crowd, Qin Su slowly walked up to the referee to register.

The referee didn't even look up, and asked casually, "Name?"

"Qin Su".

"age?"

Eighteen years old.

"Hmm? Eighteen years old?"

The referee finally looked up at Qin Su and noticed that Qin Su did indeed look much younger than the others, which surprised him so much that he made a note of it on the roster.

To become a mentalist at the age of eighteen and participate in a major mental power competition, this young man is quite talented.

But that's all there is to it. An eighteen-year-old first-level mentalist is rare, but not uncommon.

I heard this young man is a contestant from Tianhe Police Station. I guess he's just here to make up the numbers, like the previous contestant from Tianhe Police Station.

The referee then casually continued, "Um, Qin Su, what's your level of mental power?"
