"Well...alright then!"
Bai Qi gritted his teeth and agreed; executing a Starfire Slash would cost about 20,000 bucks.
If he didn’t agree, the cha might just throw a fit and go on strike during the competition, which would be an even greater loss.
That’s why they say that chanical Spirit Masters are true "whales"; you can’t play the ga without money.
Just when the Starfire cha was going full throttle, getting ready to unleash its most powerful strike, a burst of golden light suddenly appeared from the bushes beside it.
It’s the Golden Sli!
Before the competition started, the Golden Sli had already ventured into the Mist Forest, it’s just that it had been made invisible by a Monarch Level super ability type spirit beast.
Now, with the invisibility lifted and the Golden Sli releasing its own dazzling skill, the nearby area instantly beca the most conspicuous spot!
"Holy moly! Why did it spawn next to ! I just want to be a low-profile survivor!"
Inside the cha, Bai Qi complained. He just wanted to quietly earn points without becoming the target of everyone’s attacks.
"This is not a good place to linger, Starfire. Maybe... we should skedaddle?"
"Agreed!"
Bai Qi quickly communicated with the intelligence of the Starfire cha.
Releasing a Starfire Slash now, forcefully eliminating the Thunder Qilin Turtle, would likely result in being targeted by other contestants converging here, a bit of a lose-lose situation.
But the next second, Bai Qi seed to have an epiphany.
The dark grey cha’s back erupted in flas, grabbed the nearby glowing Golden Sli, then the chanical faceplate on top of the cha opened up, revealing a rather handso face.
Bai Qi cleared his throat facing the cara of a magnetic sphere monster, then spoke up:
"Good morning, ladies and gents! Here, I’m making a matrimonial ad, haha!"
"I am 28, single, own a car, a house, and a spiritual beast. An Interdiate Spirit Master from the Tiangong Daoist School. Looking for a rich and beautiful sugar mommy for financial support. I don’t smoke, drink, or play the field; just into tinkering with machines. Interested parties, ssage !"
At that mont, the competition’s live broadcast main screen was filled with his close-up; after all, the Golden Sli was the focal point of the entire competition at the mont.
Instantly, the live broadcast screen was flooded with barrage comnts.
Everyone knows that Bai Qi and his Starfire cha are among the favorites to win the championship, with high popularity!
"Didn’t expect brother Bai Qi to be such a fun guy."
"Brother Bai Qi looks like the abstinent handso type, didn’t expect him to be a funny guy, I’m impressed!"
"A direct disciple of an A-class Daoist School needing a sugar mommy for support?"
"No help for it, chanical Spirit Masters are the most expensive among the spirit masters. I’ve heard that the maintenance for these iron clads, including their daily intake of crude oil that costs tens of thousands per barrel, and other fees like upkeep and repairs are through the roof. Upgrading the chanical core is also ridiculously expensive. Without real financial power, indeed they’re hard to maintain."
"Is this promoting the fine tradition of Tiangong Daoist School? I rember disciples from the last edition of the school saying similar things during interviews. Seems like one of them really did marry a rich woman who made a major upgrade to the strength of his chanical spirit beast!"
"Bai Bao, let big sister take care of you!"
...
With Bai Qi’s words out, the audience was close to losing it with laughter.
Of course, except for the master and other disciples of the Tiangong Daoist School.
The expression of the master of the Tiangong Daoist School turned ashen, and the rest of his disciples also had faces filled with dark lines.
"Such a disgrace, too humiliating! You little rascal! Wait till you get back and see how I deal with you."
"Master, cool off, maybe the junior brother will win the championship this ti, right? And what’s wrong with getting sponsored by a rich woman! A woman might rust the cha, but a rich woman will only ensure our chas get a comprehensive upgrade."
A disciple with a slicked-back hairdo "consoled" him.
"Get lost!"
The master of the Tiangong Daoist School’s face was streaked with black lines, for it was this fourth disciple who started this "wrong trend" of sugar mommy hunting, leading to him often being teased by other masters in gatherings.
——————————————
Mist Forest.
As Bai Qi released a "marriage-seeking" advertisent, other contestants were arriving one after another.
And She Pili, with his Thunder Qilin Turtle, took the opportunity to quietly leave the area.
At this mont, a clear crane cry ca from the sky, a celestial crane with pure white wings and a slender neck flew over, and on its back sat a little Taoist, leisurely seated.
Yun Shan from Dragon Tiger Daoist School was also a hot contender for the championship.
Bai Qi looked into the distance, the Starfire cha could not only penetrate the fog but also see very far, which made it like a fish in water in this round of the contest, currently having the highest number of eliminations in the field!
Undead Bone Nightmare Horse, Quenching Blade Spirit, rosy finches...
A group of contestants with their Spiritual Beasts were speeding their way here!
"Yun, I see you’re fated with this Sli, so I’m giving it to you."
Watching the contestants arriving one after another, Bai Qi was not at all reluctant and tossed the Golden Sli he had in his hand towards Yun Shan, who was riding the crane in midair.
This move was called selecting a random Spirit Master to tornt.
Yun Shan was just about to have the Wind God Crane make a move when he saw that the Starfire cha threw the Golden Sli right in front of him; he was stunned for a mont, then threw the Golden Sli back.
"Cough cough, I guess it’s not fated for , I better give it back to you, Bai Qi!"
He was just here for the fun and did not want to choose the second path to advance.
Golden Sli: ????
"The Golden Sli now seems to be a hot potato that nobody wants!"
Liu Yiyi was comntating on the competition, and the Neon Cat at her side sighed:
"What a pitiful Golden Sli ow~"
The Starfire cha didn’t even glance at the Golden Sli; the thrusters on its back continuously ejected flas, quickly leaving the area.
In any case, the Golden Sli’s growth level reached the high Transcendent 9th Rank, and together with its amazing defensive power and resilience, it would not be hard at all even falling from this height.
Just as the Golden Sli was about to land, a white shadow swiftly passed through the trees next to it and caught the Golden Sli.
"It’s the Qingqiu Fox! Chen Mo’s Qingqiu Fox has made a move!"
"This is so cool ow!"
Unlike the other contestants who were circumspect and dared not snatch the Golden Sli, Qingqiu Fox’s performance now showed more of a monarch’s deanor.
"Well done! I am rooting for you!"
"Ahhh! The Qingqiu Fox is just too aweso! Is there any rchandise? I really want to buy so!"
At the sa ti, Chen Mo saw a bright red electronic countdown appear on the Magnetic Sphere Monster beside him—
00:29:58
If the countdown goes to zero and the Golden Sli is still in his hands, he would directly advance!
After Qingqiu Fox got the Golden Sli, it quickly returned to Chen Mo’s side, handed over the Golden Sli to him, and then transford into a shadow again, disappearing into the mist.
This round of the competition stipulated that Spiritual Beasts cannot actively attack Spirit Masters, and only by eliminating the opponent’s Spiritual Beasts can they advance.
Having Chen Mo safeguard the Golden Sli was the surest way.
Seeing this, the other contestants naturally commanded their own Spiritual Beasts to chase after the Qingqiu Fox.
The chasing crew was impressive, with more than ten Spirit Masters, and the scale was still growing!
Of course, when the opportunity arose, they would also attack each other.
"Jiu Bao, our mont is coming up next."
Chen Mo’s mouth curved upwards slightly.
It seed that the other Spiritual Beasts were hunting the Qingqiu Fox, but in Chen Mo and Qingqiu Fox’s eyes, those behind them in pursuit... were the real prey!
