"Oh, that's good news." I've been waiting for a long time. How can a game like this lack pets? Hehe, I also want a cute pet. "But how can I get it? Don't tell me I've to find Brother Dragon and ask him to give me his baby. It'll be strange if he doesn't send me back to my hometown with a Dragon Breath."
"There's only passion when there's a challenge! The Green Wild Forest is divided into three floors. The deeper you go, the higher the level of the monsters. After killing the monsters, you might randomly obtain their eggs. I hope to get a dragon. That'll be cool."
Go to hell. Dragons were all Level 90 to 100 monsters. It was not easy to become a Dragon-slaying warrior. Even the weakest flying dragon was Level 60 (a type of dragon with relatively low intelligence and strength. It wasn't recognized by the dragons. In their words, they were flying lizards. I fainted.) Moreover, flying dragons usually lived in groups.
I went to take a look. Xiaomao and I came to the edge of the Green Wild Forest. This was really a beautiful place. There were cute and harmless animals and plants everywhere. There were so many people! It seemed that everyone wanted to try their luck. Someone had already gotten a pet. A warrior brought a bear and walked around proudly, making the surrounding girls very happy. Because there was only one pet now, we had to be careful. After looking at low-level pets for a long time, those that were easy to get were usually below Level 3, but those of high levels were difficult to get (the first floor produced Levels 1-3; the second floor produced Levels 4-6; the third floor produced Levels 7-9). Of course, although low-level pets were inherently deficient, they were still very good helpers if their levels were high. Pets below Level 8 had attributes: earth attribute, water attribute, fire attribute, and wind attribute. The attributes were mutually antagonistic, and the one being countered would suffer more damage. Those that were Level-9 were divine beasts and were not restricted by attribute rules.
When we entered, we found that it was more difficult to obtain good pets, so we returned to the city. We planned to go after reaching a higher level. Anyway, pets were not allowed to participate in the first martial arts tournament. There were already people in the city selling pet eggs, but the price was shockingly high. A Level-5 wind-attribute Magic Wolf cost 10,000 gold coins. It was simply a robbery. If anyone had a divine beast, he would be rich. Oh right, I could sell pet eggs to make money. I told Xiaomao about my idea, and the two of us happily went to prepare.
First, we got low-level pets in the peripheral areas. After all, not everyone could get them. There was still a market for them. We went to the second floor a few times and got three: one for Xiaomao, a Level-5 wind-attribute spirit monkey; one for Little Snow, a Level-4 water-attribute long-haired rabbit. And there was a Level-5 five-horned snake with fire attribute. Because Snow and Little Snow were extremely disgusted with snakes, we had to sell it. It was actually auctioned for 25,000 gold coins. After deducting the messy miscellaneous fees, I still made a net profit of 21,000 gold coins. I'm rich, HOHOHO. I inadvertently thought of that odd ring, and remembered that it required 8,000 gold coins. Sigh, forget it. I'll think about it in the future.
I had to focus on leveling up for the next few days. Otherwise, if I was overtaken, I would lose face.
Introduction to the Martial Arts Tournament:
The tournament was divided into the preliminaries and the finals, both of which were based on the system of elimination. If one party died, he would be the loser. Players that died would not lose EXP. The team competition was the first to be held with five people in a group. This was followed by the individual competition.
Rewards:
Those who entered the finals in the team competition would receive 1,000 gold coins each. The champion would receive 100 reputation points each, the runner-up would receive 40 points each, and the third place would receive 20 points each.
Individuals who entered the finals would receive 5,000 gold coins; there would be a total of 4 people. The champion would receive 500 reputation points, the runner-up would receive 200, and the third place would receive 100.
As it was the first China Regional Martial Arts Tournament, it could be considered an incentive for the largest region in the entire Second World. In particular, in order to encourage everyone to be proactive, the champion of the individual competition would be rewarded with a mysterious gift—it would be announced after the champion was born. After the competition, the rankings of wealth, weapons, and divine artifacts would also be announced.
A new day had arrived. It was a day worth looking forward to. The martial arts competition had been arranged in the Genghis Khan Arena. The team name we registered was "Gunfire Rose Mercenary Group". It comprised of me, Snow, Xiaomao, Big Fool, and Little Fool. Little Snow was the cheerleader cum team member to make up the number.
Based on my observations, our team's strength was definitely above average. This was yet to include me. After such a long period of hard work, coupled with my Luck buff, my level had already far surpassed other players. I was just at Level 61, reaching the Great Mage realm. As for the others, I know that Snow is a Level-52, Grade-3 priest and is already considered an expert. Maybe it's because she levels up with me, our relationship is developing very well now. Although I'm a rookie in love, I discover that Snow has no experience in this aspect. Our beautiful first love has met. Love develops over time, and we're in a favorable position. Moreover, when we really meet someone we like, how can we care about our pride? Fortunately, Snow isn't the kind of woman who puts on an act. If she likes me, she likes me. Everyone can see our relationship. We're just short of making it clear.
There are so many people! I finally understood what it meant to be surrounded by a sea of people. We were in the third group of the 54th arena. Seeing magic and battle aura flying everywhere on the arena makes one's hands itchy for a fight. It is our turn to go on stage. Our strategy is very simple. Double Fools aim at one of the mages on the other side and pounce over. Xiaomao uses guerrilla tactics to cast fierce poison on everyone on the other side. The rest will protect our own people and disrupt the other party's attacks. Xiaomao is now at Level 46 and has very high agility. It is very difficult to hit him. Double Fools are a Level 44 and are just right for two HP bulls. Snow, on the other hand, releases healing for everyone, adds protective stone skin, and casts a magic resistance technique. I help Double Fools attack and use a large-range magical power to attack the others. I have a magic shield, so ordinary attacks are useless against me. In order to hide my strength, I even use a disguise technique (those 5 levels below me can't see my level. Only those above Level 40 can learn this skill). I don't want to expose my strength too much before the individual competition.
