Chapter 728: 722
Romeo Sora’s face showed a hint of a bitter smile.
Even the live commentators knew the elemental knowledge, so how could he, as an Epic Trainer, not know it!
It was just a coincidence that the last Class VI Overlord Pet in his Star Ring happened to be of the Water Type.
Feeling the deep fear of Cang Hai Zhu Ling through the Beast Taming Contract, Romeo Sora sighed and, under the astonished gazes of everyone present, raised his hand to surrender.
The thunderous strike that could render the Sky-holding Ape unconscious would have been fatal if used on Cang Hai Zhu Ling.
An Overlord Pet was invaluable, and no amount of money could replace it—Romeo Sora was not about to risk Arcane Star backlash and his pet’s death just to gather intelligence by sending Cang Hai Zhu Ling into the fray.
“Contestant Romeo Sora chooses to surrender!”
The referee announced loudly, “The champion of this Hegemony Race has been officially determined, the victor is David Jones from Waterland City!”
Upon hearing this, the audience all stood up, looking towards the dashing young man on stage with eyes filled with pride and envy.
“Senior David Jones is invincible!” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Rebecca Louise, followed by other club members, screamed frantically, the cheering rising to a pitch that could boil one’s blood and pierce the skies.
Guildmaster Maud and Gregory Louise exchanged glances, and for some reason, the former was suddenly reminded of that green youth from the past.
The future belongs to the young!
Thinking of the various miracles that had happened to David Jones, Guildmaster Maud suddenly had an intuition.
If David Jones had more years, decades, or even centuries to grow, the title of the world’s strongest trainer would surely fall upon his head.
Unlike Guildmaster Maud’s thoughts, Gregory Louise’s gaze was fervently fixed on Goldy.
“Perhaps the Louise family should develop a Red-tailed Goldfish breeding farm and research center!”
…
The cheers in the Battle Square were deafening.
“Well done!”
David Jones took a few steps forward and extended his right hand, gently stroking the head of the perplexed Goldy.
“Gurgle?” Goldy tilted its head.
The next second, a dazzling light burst forth, and in the blink of an eye Goldy reverted to its original appearance, the only difference being the jade-colored substance along the edges of its golden scales had thickened.
“Fainted, huh?”
Watching the Goldy before him suddenly close its eyes and start blowing bubbles, David Jones was slightly startled, then a hint of relief appeared on his face.
Through this competition, he had learned how Goldy could enter the “God’s Arrival” state.
Yes, that’s right, aside from rare top-grade Pet Resources, it seemed that the anger stemming from the soul’s instincts could briefly induce Goldy to enter the God’s Arrival stance.
The Gods shall not be insulted, let alone Psychic manipulation!
It was because the Snow Phantom Cat sought to dominate Goldy’s Psychic world, toying with Goldy’s soul, that it triggered divine retribution from the God of Nature!
Wait a second, am I missing something?
David Jones’ brow furrowed slightly, as he couldn’t quite understand.
If external Psychic control could provoke Goldy’s anger, then the act of forming a Beast Taming Contract with it was also an interference with its soul.
“Why didn’t forming a Beast Taming Contract cause Goldy to enter the God’s Arrival state?”
As David Jones pondered, a figure slowly appeared before him.
“Congratulations on your championship victory,” Romeo Sora congratulated.
…
The sun sets in the west.
The city competition had ended, but the waves and discussions it stirred up were still ongoing.
Especially the citizens of Waterland City, they were all posting their thoughts on the competition on the Trainers APP.
“As a seasoned fisherman, I had never thought that a Red-tailed Goldfish, an ornamental fish species, could actually take the crown on the stage of the Hegemony Race!”
“LOL, David Jones just used a fish to breeze through the competition with a three-nil victory. Smart trainers better start learning quick.
Oh right, let me introduce you all to my new pet: [Picture of Red-tailed Goldfish]”
“No way, we were all just joking, dude, but you really dared to contract with a Red-tailed Goldfish! Then I’ll contract one too: [Picture of Red-tailed Goldfish]”
With a group of jokesters adding fuel to the fire, the hot topic “Did you contract a Red-tailed Goldfish today?” began trending on the Trainers APP and became known to countless trainers across the country.
Meanwhile, inside the luxurious Louise villa, David Jones was having tea with two men.
“Speak, what are you really here for?”
After finishing his hot tea, Grau slammed a paw on the tea table, and the Dragon Domination of a Class VIII Emperor Dragon swept across the earth, making Romeo Sora and Leitnis Grant feel stuffy in their chests and turning their faces pale.
“Don’t bother with the Hegemony Race excuse, Grau doesn’t believe that two Epic Grant trainers would participate just for some rewards.”
“Such a powerful Class VIII Emperor Dragon!!!”
Romeo Sora and Leitnis Grant felt a chill in their hearts, realizing this was a display of dominance from the other party.
Leitnis Grant’s fingers twitched slightly, ready to summon his ace pet for a confrontation, but Romeo Sora stopped him with a look.
“Grau, why don’t we first hear what Epic Sora and Epic Grant have to say? It might be something good.”
Just when their breathing was getting more and more rapid, David Jones suddenly spoke up, normalizing the tense atmosphere in the room.
“Whether it’s goodwill or not, can’t Grau sense it!” Grau muttered softly on purpose for the two men to hear, then the pressure disappeared.
Seeing this, Romeo Sora felt even more wary.
“To be able to command a Class VIII Emperor Dragon at will is no surprise the dragon-wielding powerhouses have named David Jones as the Dragon Emperor!”
As David Jones became famous throughout the world, his unique aura that could attract True Dragons was also recognized by many powerful trainers.
Even some Dragoons suspected that David Jones might have consumed the Desolate Fruit, an SS tier Level VIII Dragon Type resource that could enhance Dragon bloodlines and affinity with Dragons.
“We are from the God Call Association, and we joined the Waterland City Hegemony Race on a whim!” Romeo Sora confidently revealed the name of their association.
“God Call Association?”
David Jones tilted his head to look at Grau, he hadn’t heard of this name, and it sounded somewhat cultish to him.
Grau blinked, it wasn’t even interested in figuring out the Beast Taming institutions under Rosewood College, let alone a national organization.
Perceiving the doubts of David Jones and Grau, Romeo Sora’s confidence wavered.
He cleared his throat and explained, “The God Call Association is subordinate to the Federation of Trainer Guild, where ordinary members are at least at the Epic level, and core members hold statuses that can rival, or even far surpass, Legend trainers.”
Hearing this, David Jones looked at Grau somewhat surprised.
A domestic organization with such significant status, how could you not know it?
“Cough cough.” Grau looked away guiltily.
Don’t ask, because it just doesn’t know!
Romeo Sora looked eagerly at David Jones, “My purpose and Leitnis’s in coming to Waterland City is just one, to invite you to join the God Call Association.”
David Jones frowned lightly, deciding to probe further.
“Does joining the God Call Association require frequently completing quests, and how are the benefits inside the association, can one exchange for Level VIII immortal resources?”
Romeo Sora smiled confidently.
“If you could become a core member of the God Call Association, not to mention Level VIII legendary resources, even Level IX immortal resources could potentially be at your fingertips!”
