Chapter 224: 224

“The Xia’s candidates have arrived!”

In front of the Turtle Shell Ancient City, Beast Tamers from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo saw a giant flying beast approaching them from far away. Their pupils instantly shrank.

Phew!

Then, as one after another flying beast was taken back, Wang Tianshan and others, together with their students, landed in front of the Turtle Shell Ancient City.

The Xia was still the last to arrive this time.

However, the Beast Tamers from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo did not dare to question them for their late arrival again like last time.

Some of those Beast Tamers even greeted them with a smile.

That was the good thing about showing your strength.

If you were strong, you would not need to make any effort to make friends with others. Instead, others would make an effort to get to know you.

However, if you were weak, even if you did whatever you could to please others, no one would care a fig about you.

“Those are the genius students from various universities in the Xia?”

“Is that Ye Xuan?”

“And that one, is the Feng Xiangming from the Xia?”

At the same time, as Ye Xuan and others landed, the young Beast Tamers from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo all fixed their eyes on Ye Xuan and his companions.

Apparently, they had done their homework before they came here.

Even Ye Xuan did his homework before this trip, though Lin Shiru forced him.

He read all of the information about the Silver-level students that would come to the Turtle Shell Ancient City that Lin Shiru had collected, including the students from the Xia and those from the other three countries.

“The Dragon City in the Sea, the Seventeenth City!”

Ye Xuan looked at the giant ancient city in front of him as soon as he got off the flying beast. He saw the name of the city immediately.

The name of the city was very odd.

It would sound normal if the name were simply the Dragon City in the Sea.

However, the Seventeenth City that followed the Dragon City in the Sea made people wonder what it was supposed to mean.

It was such a giant ancient city.

And this giant city on the back of a Starlight-level Ancient Mountain Carrying Turtle was numbered the seventeenth. You might be shocked and frightened if you thought about what it could imply.

“Fang Xianmin, something unexpected came up. We are afraid we will have to wait a little bit longer if we want to send our students into the ancient city to take adventures.”

The Challenger-level Beast Tamers from those three countries said after a small talk with Fang Xianmin and others. Everyone was surprised.

“Something unexpected? What thing unexpected?”

Fang Xianmin’s face fell right away.

He glanced over the Challenger-level Beast Tamers from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo.

Sons of bitches!

Are you kidding me?

The Challenger-level Beast Tamers from Guluo, Jiama, and Oumo were intimidated by Fang Xianmin’s look.

However, at the thought of the Xia’s power, they managed to explain, “Don’t take us wrong. We have nothing to do with this.”

“The ancient turtle woke up all of a sudden not long before your arrival. It told us the ancient city would not be open until an hour later. This is the unexpected thing we talked about.”

“However, we don’t know what is really going on, either, because the ancient turtle fell asleep again after having informed us of that.”

“We should wait for one more hour?”

Fang Xianmin narrowed his eyes when he had been informed. Gazing at the Challenger-level Beast Tamers from the three countries, he said, “Okay. We will wait for one more hour then. I only hope you won’t play any tricks.”

“We absolutely won’t.”

The Challenger-level Beast Tamers from the three countries promised Fang Xianmin in one voice.

“We should wait for one more hour?”

Ye Xuan heard their conversation. He could not help but wonder why.

He wondered what kind of unexpected thing had come up.

However, there was nothing he could do anyway.

Therefore, he started to talk with Fang Luohong and others to kill time.

“Hello, you are Ye Xuan from Jiangzhou University in the Xia. Am I right?”

At this moment, a fair-skinned young man said to Ye Xuan with a weird accent. He had walked over from Oumou’s team.

He extended his hand out as soon as he stopped in front of Ye Xuan. Smiling, he said to Ye Xuan, “My name is Svetov, a Silver-level Beast Tamer from Oumo. Nice to meet you, Ye Xuan. Hopefully, we can help each other when we go into the Turtle Shell Ancient City.”

Svetov from Oumo?

Ye Xuan lifted his head to look at the fair-skinned young man standing in front of him.

This fair-skinned young man had blond hair. He was a very handsome youngster that seemed to have a sunny disposition.

However, he was one of the foreign Silver-level Beast Tamers Lin Shiru had mentioned to him the day before.

Therefore, he knew this guy called Svetov was kind of notorious in Oumo.

It was said this dude liked to date teenage girls.

As a sophomore, he was already ranked in the top tier among the Silver-level Beast Tamers in Oumo. And he was also from a powerful family.

However, if it were not for that, he probably would have been killed without knowing why and how.

Ye Xuan smiled at the hand Svetov had extended out to him. Then he turned his head without greeting Svetov back.

He did not think he wanted to know this guy.

And by then, he had been confident enough only to make friends with whom he would like to make.

A shadow flashed across Svetov’s face when he had seen Ye Xuan so dismissive of him.

“Cool. You have quite a personality. I like you.”

But he smiled at Ye Xuan. Then he turned around to walk back.

When he had walked back into the team from Oumo, almost no one would like to talk to him, either.

But it seemed no big deal for him as if he had been used to it.

…

On the Silver Blood Planet.

In another sea, a group of Beast Tamers from the Silver Blood Clan were also waiting in front of an ancient city. This group was even bigger than Ye Xuan’s.

If Ye Xuan and his companions were here, they would have recognized this ancient city because it looked the same as the Dragon City in the Sea, the Seventeenth City in front of which they were standing at the moment.

More than that, this ancient city was also situated on the back of a giant Ancient Mountain Carrying Turtle.

The only difference between this ancient city and the one on the Cerulean Planet was the name. This city was called the Dragon City in the Sea, the Third City.

The Beast Tamers standing in front of this ancient city were all geniuses from different manors on the Silver Blood Planet. They were led here by their seigniors.

“There is only one hour to go to the opening of the Dragon City in the Sea. Everyone, listen up. A few days ago, an ancient city like this appeared somewhere on the Cerulean Planet, too.”

“According to what this ancient turtle just told us, the Dragon City in the Sea on the Silver Blood Planet is connected to each Dragon City in the Sea that appeared on other planets.”

“Therefore, you will even run into the Beast Tamers from the Cerulean Planet when you go in there.”

“Do you know what you should do once you run into them?”

“Yep, sir!”

The group of young Beast Tamers from the Silver Blood Clan answered together in a loud voice. They sounded quite threatening and aggressive.

“Great! Fantastic!”

In front of them, a Challenger-level Beast Tamer from the Silver Blood Clan said in a cold voice, “Everyone, especially the Silver-level Beast Tamers among you, there is a country called the Xia on the Cerulean Planet, and there is a Beast Tamer called Ye Xuan from the Xia. You must keep that in mind.”

“If you run into Ye Xuan in the Dragon City in the Sea, you should spare no effort to kill him there! Don’t let him leave the Dragon City in the Sea ever!”

“Whoever kills Ye Xuan will get the best beasts I can provide you with when you achieve the Gold level and the Platinum level!”

Then he showed them a photo of Ye Xuan and told them everything about Ye Xuan.

“There is an hour to go?”

“I wonder what this ancient city has inside.”

“And the Xia on the Cerulean Planet, Ye Xuan…”

The speech of the Silver Blood Challenger-level Beast Tamer made the young Silver Blood Beast Tamers’ blood boil.

At the same time, on other planets in the Galaxy, including the Eternal Night Planet, the Welkin Crystal Planet, the Holy-Eyed Planet, the Silver Horn Planet, the Gold Horn Planet, the Aton Planet…

An ancient turtle that fit the same description showed up on as many as thirty-six planets.

Along with a giant city.

However, the Ceruleans were ignorant of that.

Of course, on some of the thirty-six planets, people were ignorant of that, either.

They did not know besides them, so many Beast Tamers from other planets were also waiting for the opening of the ancient city.

Boom!

They waited, and an hour passed quickly.

When one hour had passed, the gate of the Dragon City in the Sea, the seventeenth City in front of Ye Xuan, and others were slowly open.

“Everyone, go inside!”

Seeing that, Fang Xianmin and other Challenger-level Beast Tamers looked at Ye Xuan and other young Beast Tamers as a way to tell them they could go inside.

“Let’s go!”

Ye Xuan said to Fang Luohong and others. Then he flew toward the gate of the Dragon City in the Sea with Huo Tong, Miao Shuyao, and some others.

More than three hundred young Beast Tamers from the four countries, including Ye Xuan, flew into the Dragon City in the Sea instantly.

Boom!

When Ye Xuan and others had gone in, the gate of the Dragon City in the Sea was closed again.

Seeing the gate closed, Fang Xianmin and others felt it a pity.

Some Challenger-level Beast Tamers came here earlier. They entered the Dragon City in the Sea and found many treasures there.

However, unfortunately, the ancient turtle apparently had set up a rule this time.

Only Beast Tamers on the Silver level, the Gold level, and the Platinum level were allowed to go inside.

He wondered whether there would be future opportunities for Challenger-level Beast Tamers like them to go inside.

“What is that?”

Ye Xuan and others found the surroundings were completely different from the outside as soon as they flew through the gate of the Dragon City in the Sea.

Then Ye Xuan found himself and other Silver-level Beast Tamers in a giant treasure trove.

He thought it was a treasure trove because he was apparently in a spacious closed space.

And there were numerous shelves in this closed space.

On each layer of each shelf, there were numerous treasures.

And those treasures all had a sign next to them.

They glanced over and found that besides a big number of evolutionary resources.

There were beast eggs among the treasures as well.

There were even beasts that should have been giant but were locked in the boxes there somehow. And they were all available for contracting.

“Am I dreaming? Is all this real?”

Ye Xuan and others were all dumbfounded.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

When they were in a daze, numerous figures showed up in a flash in the giant treasure trove around them.

“They are from… The Silver Blood Clan, the Holy-Eyed Clan, the Eternal Night Clan, the Welkin Crystal Race, and…”

Seeing so many Beast Tamers from foreign clans in front of them, Ye Xuan and others turned pale.

They had no idea what had happened.

They had no idea how the Silver Blood Clan and the other clans had arrived here.
