"We won’t make you do anything against morals, against the laws of the Flame Country, or acts of misconduct. We’ll just ask for small favors within your capacity," The Paper Puppet’s eloquent speech made Dragon Pillar feel somewhat at ease. Dragon Pillar is not someone who can’t adapt. A debt of gratitude is the hardest to repay, but the premise is that one is in a relatively negotiable situation. If one’s basic survival is not secure, and yet insists otherwise, that would be stubbornness. After all, this time, what he’s using to pay for medical expenses is part treasure and three favors within his capacity, without causing Dragon Pillar significant harm. This filled Dragon Pillar’s eyes with gratitude. Master Jiang, truly a kind person. He also plans to tell others about Master Jiang, letting them owe Master Jiang a favor too. After all, it’s not the lack that worries, but the uneven distribution. Dragon Pillar thanked again and again, departing with Cold Ice Glaze Dragon, leaving behind the Glazed Dragon egg for further treatment. Cold Ice Glaze Dragon’s eyes were slightly red. With each step it took, it turned its head to look at the Glazed Dragon egg soaked in nectar. It could feel the Life Force of the Glazed Dragon egg gradually strengthening. This is why it was willing to leave the Glazed Dragon egg here. Every parent hopes their child can be safely born. Safety and happiness, that is the greatest blessing. Once the Glazed Dragon egg is fully restored, Cold Ice Glaze Dragon will undoubtedly guard the egg day and night, waiting for the little Glazed Dragon’s birth. Ye Bai was also ’chased out’ by Master Jiang, with the reason being that the Young Qilin Cup Flame Country Tournament is about to begin. "Paper Puppet, you take Ye Bai to the Young Qilin Cup Flame Country Tournament registration," "If you don’t win the Young Qilin Cup championship, I won’t acknowledge you as my disciple." Master Jiang spoke proudly, his eyes filled with laughter and a bit of reluctance. The opening ceremony for the Young Qilin Cup Flame Country Tournament was held at Imperial University. Here, Ye Bai saw his two mentors—Su Qingxian and Zhang Dashan. Both had diamond rings on their ring fingers, it seemed things had worked out. The two were invited as special guests to attend the opening ceremony. Ye Bai sent a message to Zhang Lingxue but received an automatic reply from the message editor. "Currently conducting research in a closed Secret Realm, will reply immediately after coming out." The opening ceremony was very grand, inviting many powerful breeders and Pet Beast Masters to give speeches. Teacher Su Qingxian was the main highlight, and as soon as she took the stage, thunderous applause erupted and lasted continuously. The entire ceremony lasted from morning till afternoon, and the Young Qilin Cup venue was at the Flame Country Alliance’s largest sports venue, Phoenix Nest. Phoenix Nest is a comprehensive large arena, fully equipped with living facilities and a large commercial hotel. To prevent accidents, Marshal Cyan Dragon even specifically dispatched Tiger Pillar to oversee the event. Ye Bai was assigned to room 678, located at the northeast corner of Phoenix Nest, where he could see the arena outside the window. A glance upwards revealed a sky full of stars. Ye Bai’s door was knocked. The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm scampered over to open the door. Outside, there was no one, but instead, left a small pink card. On it was written, "Hey handsome, are you lonely?" Ye Bai’s mouth twitched slightly, suddenly suspecting a scheme. Could there be some sort of drug on the card, causing mental disturbance? After all, this is the Flame Country Young Qilin Cup Tournament, where scheming can happen everywhere. Back at Shen Mountain Middle School, Director Suna had already said that one’s personal belongings must be kept safe, and once left unattended—even if the water bottle was unopened—shouldn’t be consumed. If found using banned substances, breeders faced a penalty of prohibition from participating in any events for over three years. "Don’t move, Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, I’ll make a call." Seeing the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm about to pick up the card with its tongue, Ye Bai quickly stopped it. Then Ye Bai directly made a call to report the situation. Upon investigation, it turned out just as he suspected, that these cards contained hallucinatory drugs causing mental derangement. Quite a few contestants had picked up the cards out of curiosity. Luckily, Ye Bai had discovered it in advance, or it would have been quite a joke. Yin Tiger, or rather Tiger Pillar, was seated in the main position. Across from him were three individuals. One wore workout clothes with a Kanglong Mace at his waist. The Kanglong Mace looked like a stick without blades, golden dragon coiled atop it, the dragon head serving as its handle. A slight rotation of the Kanglong Mace and the dragon scales become sharp spikes, forged with Cloud Gold, it serves both offensive and defensive purposes. Another person was muscled all over, hands calloused, with a leopard head, round eyes, swallow chin, tiger whiskers, wrapped with a knuckle duster. The knuckle duster was covered with dense reverse spikes. The last person stood tall, with defined and finely shaped facial features, radiating an effortless elegance. A faint smile adorned his face. In his hand was a fan thin as a cicada’s wing, made of iron. The fan is as magnificent as a peacock’s feather, inscribed with the five large characters of Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust. These three individuals are Kang Jinlong, Tail Fire Tiger, and Ji Shui Leopard. "This time the mission is to ensure the safety of the participants in the Flame Country’s Young Qilin Cup Competition." "I hope you can be more diligent." "Marshal Cyan Dragon has issued a strict order; no accidents are allowed at this year’s Young Qilin Cup." "The top ten this time will represent our country in the International Youth Breeder Conference." "This is about maintaining our nation’s prestige." Tiger Pillar said in a deep, resonant voice. The three nodded immediately. "The incident with the little card is a wake-up call for us, we mustn’t let the criminals exploit any gaps." Evangelical Association. The Sun, Moon, and Star Sages met together. They sat amidst the stars. The Day Sage, with her full head of golden hair, glowed with fervent light, holding the Sun Staff in her left hand and the Sun Treasure Manual in her right. The Moon Sage’s body was encased in a silver moon, radiating bright moonlight, with the Silver Moon Staff and Taiyin Treasure Manual floating in the air. The Star Sage, resting her chin on her hand, watched them playfully, positioned a head higher than the Sun and Moon Sages. The Sun and Moon Sages respectfully addressed the Star Sage. "I’ve nearly mastered the knowledge of the Evangelical Association; it’s time to unfold our subsequent plans." "Once the plan succeeds, we will take the final step." "I want to see whether the Resurrection Association’s Trinity is powerful or the one I’ve created." The Star Sage’s profound blue eyes carried a smile. Knowledge, only knowledge can fill the void inside her. After the deep awakening of the Memory Palace talent, the Star Sage felt this talent was out of control. "The internal strife within the Evangelical Association grows more intense, with the Whipping Girl and the Necromancer chief forcing us to take sides." "Honestly, I’ve grown weary of endless battles." "I have obtained intelligence on the location of the God of Knowledge, Oghma’s temple." "As long as we get his protection, leaving the Evangelical Association isn’t a big issue." "However, the Secret Realm where the temple is located isn’t ready to be opened yet, so we must remain patient." The Star Sage chuckled. "Now we can reveal some of the Evangelical Association’s intelligence to the mentor." "This was why I joined the Evangelical Association in the first place, yet my foolish senior remains in the dark." The Star Sage revealed a meaningful smile. Ye Bai’s intelligence refreshes once again. [1. The Wind Eagle and the Honey Eagle look quite similar, the only difference being that the Honey Eagle’s pupils are black, its bones lighter. If you need to stitch a Honey Eagle’s bones, you need the silk from the Black Silk Spider.] [2. The Black Silk Spider has a trait where whatever material it eats, the silk it produces has the same trait.] [3. The Crown of the Dead has been secretly forged into a Crown, appearing in the Imperial Capital Museum; this Crown of the Dead possesses the power to control the undead.] [4. There is an eerie phenomenon in the Phoenix Nest, where at midnight, staring into the eyes of a passing statue by the hot spring pool in the hall will reveal one’s future.] [5. According to scientists, mixing a bit of the exuviae of the Spring and Autumn Cicada into the Strength Potion can improve its quality.] Ye Bai looked at the intelligence before him, knowing it wouldn’t be aimless; it’s most likely that the Honey Eagle and Wind Shadow might be Pet Beasts used in the competition. He immediately found the detailed information on Honey Eagles and Wind Eagles and examined it carefully. Thanks to the Celestial Gate, the Exotic Beast Encyclopedia contains introductions to both the Honey Eagle and Wind Eagle. The Wind Eagle is a medium-sized Exotic Beast. Its eyes are keen and deep, with golden pupils. Its beak is curved and sharp, like a slender crescent moon, an effective tool for hunting and tearing prey. Its feathers are tight and glossy, with long and powerful wings supporting the Wind Eagle for long-duration flights and rapid dives. They can use their wing flaps and special airflow techniques to disrupt an enemy’s sight, change wind directions, or create powerful storms. Generally, tamed Wind Eagles are used by Pet Beast Masters as scouts. The skill Eagle Eye allows them to see things from a thousand meters away. Google seaʀᴄh 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩 The Honey Eagle resembles the Wind Eagle in appearance, but with black pupils; this is because they have long fed on a kind of Exotic Beast called the Black Flame Bee, resulting in highly toxic characteristics that change their pupils’ color. The Wind Eagle is a pure Wind Element Exotic Beast, whereas the Honey Eagle is a Wind + Poison Attribute Exotic Beast. The Honey Eagle’s blood and claws are highly poisonous, causing a searing pain that makes people feel unbearable. Ye Bai squinted slightly, it seems there will undoubtedly be an unexpected event tomorrow. Certain individuals will inevitably come into contact with the Honey Eagle, and if unprepared, they will likely be burned by its blood, leading to their withdrawal from the competition. What a sinister scheme.
