Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 669 Expanding Enrollment

Longjiang.

Whoosh!

A figure like a fiery cloud flew over and landed high in the sky outside the base.

The numerous guards on the outer wall recognized the fiery dragon beast immediately and showed respect. Some of the battle pet masters even raised their hands in a military salute.

Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the situation.

Thankfully, no beast tide has arrived.

"Has any movement been detected nearby?" Su Ping's voice reached the ears of an elderly man with a titled cultivation level nearby. The old man was watching Su Ping closely, wanting to go up and greet him, but also afraid of offending Su Ping.

Upon hearing Su Ping's words, the old man's heart tightened, feeling somewhat flattered. He quickly replied telepathically, "Reporting to Boss Su, sentries have been dispatched to lie in ambush and conduct reconnaissance around Longjiang, and there are currently no reports of any incidents."

"That's good."

Su Ping nodded.

Without lingering any longer, he rode the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast directly to the shop.

As everyone watched Su Ping's figure depart, their eyes burned with fervor. They knew that when the beast tide struck, the one who could truly save Longjiang from its dire straits was this young man riding a dragon.

……

Back in the shop.

Su Ping put away the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast and saw several titled elders discussing matters inside the Qin family's small building across the street. He stepped forward and asked, "How are the other defense lines? Have you received any news?"

Several elders of the Qin family were surprised to see Su Ping arrive and hurriedly came to greet him.

"Boss Su, we just received good news from the Dragon Whale side. The beast tide has subsided." An elder of the Qin family said with awe and fervor in his eyes, "We've seen the video that was just sent back. Boss Su is indeed incredibly brave. With Boss Su in charge of Longjiang, we will definitely be safe and sound and be able to hold off these monsters."

"Yeah yeah……"

The two elders beside him echoed his sentiments.

Su Ping rolled his eyes and said irritably, "I'm not here to listen to your flattery, I'm here to ask about the other defense lines."

Seeing that he had hit a brick wall, the Qin family elder was somewhat disgruntled and quickly said, "The transmission of information from other defense lines is somewhat delayed, taking about two hours tonight. After all, there are monsters raging everywhere outside, and many communication stations built in the wasteland have been destroyed. But according to the current intelligence, there is no movement from other defense lines for the time being."

"That's fine then."

After listening to a bunch of nonsense, Su Ping finally got the answer he wanted. He was speechless. This old man was probably a marketing guy from the Qin family.

He said one sentence and then turned and left.

If something goes wrong on another defensive line, he would consider making another trip.

After all, if other defense lines fall, it will also affect the Star Whale defense line that was just saved, and at the same time, it will also affect Longjiang.

If he's just watching from the sidelines, then there's no point in going to Longjing.

"Take care, Mr. Su."

Seeing Su Ping leave, the Qin family members with titles did not dare to stop him and quickly bowed respectfully.

Su Ping returned to the shop and, after some thought, decided not to go back to the breeding grounds.

Judging from the situation of the dragon whale, the current situation is very tense and disaster could break out at any time. Once a king beast leads a large army to attack the city, with the speed of a high-level monster, it can enter the detection range of the base in less than half a day. Although no beast tide has been detected in Longjiang at present, it does not mean that there is no beast tide brewing an attack outside this detection range.

If he were to go to the cultivation grounds to train, even for just one day, he would return late.

"Old Xie."

Su Ping dialed a number.

"Boss Su!" The call connected quickly, and Xie Jinshui's voice sounded particularly excited as he said, "I saw the battle you just witnessed at the Dragon Whale Base City. Boss Su, you were truly awe-inspiring! With you in charge of Longjiang, I'm relieved. Boss Su, if Longjiang can survive this beast tide, I'll step down as mayor and let you take over!"

Hearing Lao Xie's excited words, Su Ping was speechless and said irritably, "I'm too busy with my shop to be a mayor. This beast tide is extraordinary. The dragon whale is just the beginning, and there is only one Heavenly Fate Realm demon beast in charge. It's not a big deal."

"The real challenge is yet to come."

"Not a big deal?"

Xie Jinshui was stunned, bewildered by Su Ping's words.

Although he is not a legend, he is, after all, the mayor, and he knows the different levels and gaps between legends.

The Heavenly Fate Realm Legend has already reached the pinnacle of the Blue Star!

The four evil beasts that wreaked havoc on Earth for thousands of years were all at the Heavenly Fate Realm!

Within the Peak Tower, although there are twelve legendary figures in the Void Realm, only the Peak Master is openly recognized as a legendary figure in the Heavenly Fate Realm!

At this moment, in the Dragon Whale Battle, a beast tide led by a Heavenly Fate Realm demon beast is actually described by Su Ping as not being a "big battle"? Then what is a truly "big battle"?!

Xie Jinshui's excitement quickly cooled, and he had no doubt about Su Ping's words.

From the moment he learned of Su Ping, Su Ping was a mysterious figure in his eyes. He could completely accept that Su Ping had access to information that he did not know.

If the battle against the dragon whale was considered a small-scale operation, then this beast tide... is terrifying!

Xie Jinshui dared not think any further and asked with some worry, "Boss Su, are those abyssal beasts really that strong?"

"Of course, after all, they were suppressed in the abyss for so long, and the environment there was so harsh. It was a world where the strong preyed on the weak, so the number of Heavenly Fate Realm demonic beasts born there was far more than you can imagine. It wouldn't be surprising if ten or eight appeared at once," Su Ping said.

He wasn't saying this to scare Xie Jinshui; it was the truth.

He had no intention of hiding it from him; there was no need. After all, Xie Jinshui was the mayor and should have the mental fortitude to avoid causing widespread panic.

"Ten or eight..."

Xie Jinshui's mind was buzzing and somewhat blank.

Su Ping overestimated his psychological resilience; his heart nearly stopped when he heard those words!

Isn't that equivalent to ten peak masters?!

Ten times the fighting strength of the Peak Tower?!

Xie Jinshui felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, his whole body was cold and shivering, and his hand holding the communicator was trembling.

With ten times the combat power, he couldn't imagine what kind of disaster this would be.

After a long silence on the other end of the communication line, Su Ping fed him a few times and then said helplessly, "Old Xie, don't overthink it. No matter what, Longjiang will survive to the end. Even if Longjiang falls in the end, we humans will not be wiped out. Some of us will definitely survive."

Xie Jinshui fell into a long silence, unable to speak.

Su Ping didn't offer any further advice; he had to bear these things himself.

If you can't even handle real information, then there's no point in talking about how to deal with it.

"I contacted you to tell you that if there's any situation on the other defense lines, you should let me know as soon as possible. If I can help, I will. After all, at this time, helping others is helping yourself," Su Ping said, getting back to the main point.

Xie Jinshui finally came to his senses, his mouth full of bitterness, and said, "I understand, I will."

"it is good."

Su Ping said no more and hung up the call.

After ending the communication, Su Ping summoned Joanna, who was cultivating in the foster care area, and asked her to teach him the Ten Directions Locking Heaven Formation directly in the store.

While listening to Joanna teach him the formation, Su Ping also sat in the nurturing seat, absorbing the spiritual energy inside and continuing to cultivate, constantly compressing and solidifying the star vortex within his body.

……

Peak Tower.

The numerous floating hills all moved aside from their original positions, creating a passage in the middle. At the end of this passage, a giant warship hovered in mid-air.

In front of the warship was Gu Siping's floating mountain, but it was very simple, with only a thatched hut.

At this moment, a dozen or so figures gathered in front of the thatched hut. Besides Gu Siping and his two grandsons, as well as the people from the Shumia Academy, there were also several legends and young men and women.

"Are they the other four selected candidates?"

The tall, slender middle-aged man surveyed the four young men and women with indifferent eyes.

They stood beside their elders, and although they were all exceptional talents of the planet Earth, they were all a little nervous at this moment, but tried their best to appear calm and composed.

"Bone age nineteen, cultivation level at the peak of the ninth rank of the initial stage, possesses the power of thunder within her body, and is a natural thunder-type battle physique." The middle-aged man looked at a girl holding a sword.

The girl held a slender sword, her face serene, and her oval face made her look both beautiful and lovely.

She is Yuan Linglu.

"His qualifications are acceptable; he is eligible for admission." The middle-aged man nodded.

Upon hearing this, both the girl and the old man behind her breathed a sigh of relief.

A smile appeared on the old man's face, suppressing the joy in his heart.

The middle-aged man glanced to the side.

"Bone age of eighteen, cultivation level of the ninth stage of the initial stage, close to the limit, and there is necromantic energy in his body, not bad."

"Bone age fourteen, cultivation level of the ninth rank of the initial stage, there is the aura of an insect beast in his body, it should be some kind of insect beast battle body, I don't know how effective it is."

"Bone age 22, cultivation level at the peak of the ninth rank of the initial stage, internal energy... very abundant!"

The middle-aged man looked at the last young man with a hint of interest in his eyes. He didn't sense any battle body aura from the other man, but the abundance of star power surprised him. This level of star power was comparable to the Vast Ocean Realm, and five times the limit of an ordinary ninth-order!

It is no easy feat to condense star power to such a high concentration.

"You seem to have a special combat body as well, but it seems to be energy-based," the middle-aged man said, squinting.

The young man was a little nervous, but he smiled calmly on the surface. Hearing this, he cupped his hands and said, "Senior has a discerning eye. I have indeed had more star power than other battle pet masters since I was a child. When I first awakened my star power, I was already at the level of a second-level battle pet master."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly; it was entirely within his expectations.

"That's right, you are all qualified for admission," the middle-aged man said.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the elders behind them also showed joy.

Getting into Shumia Academy is like a meteoric rise to the top!

"I didn't expect there to be so many promising talents here," a red-haired woman next to her said with a smile.

Another middle-aged man surnamed Zhou said, "Although this place is close to the Primitive Star, it still holds the seeds of humankind, so our trip wasn't in vain."

"All six spots are filled. To encounter six specially admitted students at once makes this trip worthwhile," said the woman standing beside him, arms crossed and cold as ice.

Upon hearing their words, Elder Yuan and Gu Siping listened attentively with smiles on their faces.

"Are there any people you've missed here?" the middle-aged man surnamed Fang asked. The others around him shut their mouths and looked at Gu Siping and the others.

Gu Siping was taken aback, and quickly said, "Teacher Fang, we hold a global league every few years. In addition to the elite league, there is also the King's League. These are places to select geniuses. Anyone with talent will stand out, unless they don't participate in such grand events at all."

"But this situation is rare. After all, the rewards for these two competitions are quite generous. And even if the other party is the kind who focuses on seclusion and never participates in competitions, they still have to go to some academies to cultivate. The top academies here are all supervised by our Peak Tower."

"The geniuses that emerge in the academy will all come into our sight. As long as they have talent and meet the admission requirements of your esteemed institution, I will definitely step forward to recruit them. There are very few talents that will be overlooked."

"Is that so?"

The middle-aged man surnamed Fang nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and said, "Since we've come all this way, let's try our best to recruit as many people as possible. We'll take anyone who meets the requirements."

He glanced at the legends behind Yuan Linglu and the others, his eyes flashing, and said, "Some geniuses may not have a powerful background, and some geniuses may not be able to control the hidden power within their bodies, making them easy to overlook. Now, besides them, give me the information on all the top geniuses under the age of twenty-two here, and I will personally select some."

Gu Siping was stunned, not expecting that the other party wanted to recruit even more people.

"This... okay, I'll arrange it right away." Gu Siping didn't dare to refuse and quickly agreed.

After agreeing, he immediately beckoned to a legendary figure who had gathered outside and gave him instructions.

The archives of geniuses from all over the world are recorded at the Peak Tower.

The tower has a dedicated organization and personnel to record and collect this information.

The cultivation records of various top academies, as well as records of certain secret realms or special cultivation places, are also recorded by the Peak Tower.

Hearing the words of the middle-aged man surnamed Fang, Yuan Linglu was slightly stunned. A figure flashed through her mind. She bit her lip slightly and tightened her grip on the silver sword sheath.

Behind her, Old Yuan, who had just been all smiles with humility, looked somewhat unnatural. His smile became stiff, and a look of resentment and complexity flashed across his eyes, but he quickly composed himself.

Data on geniuses from around the world?

The other legends around them, some remained calm, while others became uneasy.

Not long after, the legendary figure who had left earlier returned, carrying a stack of documents seven or eight centimeters thick.

"Peak Master, Senior, these are the profiles of geniuses from all over the world in recent years. The top part contains information on those whose ages are known, all of whom are no more than twenty-two years old. The bottom part contains information on those whose deeds and legends have been left behind, but whose names and ages are unknown," the legendary figure said respectfully.

Gu Siping nodded, but did not take it, indicating that he would hand it directly to the middle-aged man surnamed Fang.

The middle-aged man surnamed Fang didn't say much or make any moves. All the documents flew in front of him, and he quickly flipped through them one by one.

At the top is a list of student profiles from top universities across all continents. The information is quite detailed, including age and background.
