Beast Tamer: Why is the intelligence system a game announcement?

Ok?

Seeing the changes in bloodline, Lin Wu was not surprised at all, but when he saw the changes in racial skills, a little surprise appeared on his face.

"Thanks to the legacy of the ecological conflict and the fragment of the colony, the racial skills of the Time-Phantom Insect have been successfully upgraded without consuming anything else."

Beside her, Bai Su sipped her tea from her thermos, calmly offering a brief explanation before turning to urge them on:

"Alright, what changes have been made to the racial skills?"

"The Time-Phantom Worm seems to have... a new form."

After thinking for a while, Lin Wu suddenly remembered the projection that had appeared on the Time Illusion Worm, and his eyes lit up slightly.

"Time Phantom Worm, try triggering a time projection."

"babble?"

The Time Phantom Worm tilted its head, then its figure flickered. The next moment, Lin Wu discovered that he seemed to be able to guide the Time Phantom Worm, making this skill have an effect different from the past!

So he did just that.

The next instant, Lin Wu was surprised to see that the three time projections reappeared on the Time Illusion Worm's body. Then, the butterfly gradually materialized, solidified, and covered the Time Illusion Worm's body!

Wow, it can predict the future!

At that moment, the thought clearly flashed through Lin Wu's mind.

This is the true mechanism of the Time-Phantom Worm!

Lin Wu could clearly sense that the Time-Phantom Insect's various attributes had been greatly enhanced in this state. It was as if, through time projection, the future of its transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly had been pulled back!

At that moment, Lin Wu's mind began to race, and in an instant, he came up with countless ways to use this skill.

The most direct and crucial aspect is the increase in the number of points of contention.

The original Time Phantom Bug, after triggering time projection, has only one point of contention: Did I switch to a different spirit, or is this a spirit transformed from the Time Phantom Bug?

Now, the second point of contention has emerged.

Guess what happens when I trigger the time projection of the Phantom Bug: do I choose to strengthen, switch Pokémon, or disguise myself as another Pokémon in my team?

There's a penalty for not guessing correctly, and no reward for guessing correctly.

In short, one word: make money!

Lin Wu couldn't wait to go to the rookie tournament and show everyone this Time-Phantom Insect.

"Not bad."

After reading it, Bai Su nodded slightly: "Then, there's nothing more to say."

"The Rising Stars Challenge is just around the corner, so focus on preparing for it."

"By the way, Professor Bai, I haven't asked about the specific format of the rookie tournament yet."

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Lin Wu asked Bai Su a question.

Although Lin Wu knew the significance and rewards of the rookie tournament, as well as the details of the competition, he still didn't understand the specific gameplay.

Bai Su paused slightly, then calmly said:

"Regarding this... although the rules may change, the underlying logic remains the same."

"It generally goes through three stages. In the first stage, players search for resources and develop advantages within the competition area, while also gathering intelligence on other opponents. In the second stage, players will engage in a simulated ecological battle to seize ecological seeds."

"In the third stage, which is the final stage, the intensity will reach its highest. At this point, those who want to advance to the professional level will plant their own ecological seeds, arrange the terrain, and attempt to advance. At the same time, they must guard against others interfering with their advancement and destroying the arranged terrain. Once the arranged terrain or ecological seeds are destroyed, then this advancement will end in failure, and they will have to start all over again."

"After this, the competition ends. The surviving players will receive rewards."

"That's the general division of stages. However, the way each stage is carried out may vary depending on the different locations each year and the antics of that guy from the Jianghai Province Beast Tamer Association."

"change?"

"Well, for example, last year, that guy suddenly came up with a brilliant idea and created a team competition in the second stage. Five people were in a group and each had a crystal. Once the crystal was broken, the whole group would lose and lose this simulated ecological battle."

"In addition, there were tower defense games, simulation management games, and a whole bunch of other random things... That guy always caused headaches in this area."

"I wonder what new things they'll come up with this year."

Bai Su took a sip of tea and sighed, while Lin Wu's eyes twitched slightly, sensing the freedom in the ecological struggle.

So this thing can be considered part of the ecological conflict?

"Any other questions?"

"That's all."

Lin Wu thought for a moment and shook her head. Then, Bai Su stood up.

"Then I'll be going. Good luck, I'm looking forward to seeing your performance in the rookie game."

After Bai Su finished speaking, she turned around and walked out of the villa.

Lin Wu squinted at Shi Huanchong, who looked completely bewildered.

"Time is running out for the journey to the Immortal Realm."

Then, he earnestly began to speak:

"We should start rolling."

"……babble?"

........................

For the next period of time, Lin Wu spent every day in Bai Miaomiao's basement, never leaving the house, and practicing all the time with his eyes closed.

Go all out for the Rookie Challenge!

After all, just from the size of the pie Bai Su drew, Lin Wu sensed something unusual.

There are way too many pancakes.

Not to mention the opportunities that might be available in the rookie tournament, the prospect of advancing to the professional level alone is tempting enough.

Moreover, there are many other benefits, such as upgrades to one's Beast Taming Space, acquisition of racial skills, abundant resources from ecological conflicts, and the opportunity for the Ghost Bone Dragon to become obedient...

Bai Su even promised that if Lin Wu successfully advanced to the professional ranks in the rookie competition, he would have the opportunity to directly enter Jianghai University.

This saved Lin Wu a tremendous amount of time and provided her with ample opportunities for development. After all, as Bai Su had previously mentioned, the benefits at university were quite substantial.

With so many opportunities ahead, Lin Wu felt that if he didn't hurry up and practice to achieve good results in the rookie tournament, he would feel guilty.

While frantically improving his Phantom Insect's skill proficiency, Lin Wu also kept a close eye on the news of the Rookie Tournament released by the Jianghai Province Beast Tamer Association, as well as the updates to the announcements.

However, Lin Wu felt more and more that something strange had been happening in Jianghai Province recently.

Fewer and fewer things are happening. Lin Wu's earlier feeling that "someone in Jianghai Province is deliberately controlling the occurrence of accidents" has become increasingly strong. These days, apart from announcements guiding people to spend money on new product launches, there are basically no events happening in Jianghai Province, let alone Ningcheng.

And so, amidst round after round of announcements, as the rookie competition drew near, Lin Wu finally received a different kind of announcement.

On this day, as Lin Wu looked at the announcement of the rookie tournament format that had been refreshed in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but look strange.

Wow... they actually posted their own announcement faster than the Beast Tamer Association itself?

........................

Meanwhile, in the president's office of the Jianghai Province Beast Tamer Association.

The man in the purple suit stared intently at the board in front of him, seemingly lost in thought. His assistant remained silent until the man suddenly stood up. The assistant looked up sharply and saw the man walk to the window and gaze outside.

"President..."

The president raised his hand and said lightly:

"Alright, the rookie season is about to start, right? How about we do something special this year?"

For a moment, the assistant's eye twitched, but he still nodded.

In my mind, however, there was only one thought.

Why is the president doing this again...?

But the man's eyes were unusually calm as he gazed into the distance, as if his gaze could sweep across Jianghai Province and reach the distant wilderness.

The rookie competition is about to begin. And he plans to... make slight changes to the competition format.

After all, we need to lure that guy out of the rookie tournament, right?

Since that's the case... we should at least show some "sincerity".

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the man's lips.

Come on... my opponent, my longtime rival.

This time, I'm putting out the bait. Do you dare to bite?
