Chapter 730: Chapter 724: Council of the Association
As time passed, the effects of the Hegemony Race in Waterland City continued to linger.
Under the discussions and speculations of numerous trainers, the price of the Red-tailed Goldfish began to soar.
The skyrocketing price even led some impressionable trainers to gradually believe in the extraordinary potential of the Red-tail Goldfish.
Some unscrupulous beast merchants hoarded the fish, planning to sell their Red-tailed Goldfish at a high price.
“Heh heh, this is the Red-tailed Goldfish caught by David Jones [attach image]. Once I train it into a dragon, winning the Grand title will be no problem!”
“You’re not smart enough, upstairs. I bought a full five of David Jones’ Red-tailed Goldfish. As long as one turns into a dragon, becoming a King trainer is just around the corner!”
“????”
Looking at the comments and pictures boasting about Mr. Dell with a beaming smile, David Jones felt a mix of emotions.
Good grief, he had only sold Mr. Dell a few Red-tailed Goldfish, and now the entire internet was selling them under his name.
“Gluttonous Beast, send a lawyer’s notice to all those unscrupulous merchants using my name, and give Mr. Dell a warning to stop overdoing it.”
“Roar!” (No problem!)
It was at this moment that an announcement rang out on the floating train.
“This train will soon arrive at Celebration Station, please prepare if you are disembarking.”
Upon hearing this, David Jones stood up and followed the crowded stream of people off the train.
“Why must some people court death!” David Jones looked up at the azure sky, pondering in his heart.
To be honest, these past few years had been smooth sailing for David Jones, having defeated many strong opponents, but the most unforgettable was the assassination attempt by Daisy Keynes.
It was the closest he had ever come to death.
Afterward, David Jones had thought about seeking revenge, but since Daisy Keynes had been thoroughly killed by Lolo, as debts are settled upon death, he ultimately did not involve her whole family due to one person’s actions.
Of course, if the Keynes family still could not let go and wanted to seek revenge for their daughter, David Jones wouldn’t mind wiping them out in return.
Recalling the intelligence sent by Teacher Lilith last night, David Jones looked down at the hidden Rainbow in his arms.
Originally, he had planned to enter seclusion and cultivate upon returning to Rosewood City.
Unfortunately, he had given the Keynes family a rare opportunity, yet they still didn’t cherish it.
…
Elsewhere, in the Federation of Trainer Guild’s Floating Building.
The Trainer Guild Master, Deity Ott, calmly said, “The decision to subjugate the Yamanano Brahma Dragon is hereby set, the God Call Association will also dispatch two Summoners to assist.”
Before Deity Ott, on the virtual screen, were five powerful trainers whose faces couldn’t be seen and whose voices made the space tremble.
These five individuals were the Guildmasters of the Five Greats’ Level I city associations within Flowery Kingdom, representing the five sacred lands in the meeting.
“We have no objections!”
The five exchanged glances, knowing they each had to dispatch at least one Deity-class power to satisfy Deity Ott.
Just as Deity Ott was about to conclude the meeting, news from his subordinates visibly relaxed his brow.
Seeing this, the five ready-to-disperse powerhouses became interested.
Being the Supreme Deity within the nation, there were not many things that could cause a severe shift in his emotions.
“Indeed,” said Deity Ott with a smile, “there has been the appearance of another reincarnated divine beast in our nation, and it is of the holy Thunder element!”
“Reincarnated Divine Beast!!!” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon hearing this earth-shattering piece of intelligence, the Five Greats were all startled, and even Virgil Harvey, the Guildmaster of Rosewood City’s Trainer Guild, couldn’t help but let out a cry of surprise.
Deity Ott glanced at the shocked crowd and said with a tinge of regret, “It’s a pity that the true spirit of this Thunder divine beast has not fully awakened yet, otherwise our grasp on the god-slaying project fifty years from now would be much greater!”
The Guildmaster of Peony City’s Trainer Guild, Jin Qisheng, spoke with a trace of excitement in his voice.
“Nine-Purity Spring Water can solve the riddles of a reincarnated being’s birth, and it has certain effects on the awakening of a reincarnated divine beast’s true spirit. I propose that all shares of Nine-Purity Spring Water for the next fifty years be given to that reincarnated divine beast.”
Hearing this, Deity Ott turned to look at the graceful veiled lady on the other side.
Shui Yaqin, the Guildmaster of Glazewater City’s Trainer Guild, furrowed her brows slightly.
It was easy for others to suggest giving away what was not theirs; the production of Nine-Purity Spring Water was limited, and even Glazewater College itself did not have enough for its own use, let alone spare some.
Thus, she spread her arms in an expression of defeat and said directly, “Glazewater College no longer has any surplus Nine-Purity Spring Water. I have a proposal: the White Tiger Golden Crystal can extract Immortal Power, greatly reducing the time it takes for the reincarnated divine beast to rebuild itself. It might be more appropriate for Peony College to make a contribution.”
“There is no need for the two of you to argue. The true spirit of the Thunder divine beast has gradually begun to awaken, and it has already formed a Beast Taming Contract with a young trainer,” said Deity Ott.
At these words, the eyes of the Five Greats all brightened, and even Jin Qisheng and Shui Yaqin changed their minds, indicating that they could discuss the matter of Nine-Purity Spring Water/White Tiger Golden Crystal as long as the trainer was willing to join Glazewater College or Peony College.
“May I ask Deity Ott, who is this young prodigy?” Virgil Harvey asked.
“Virgil Legend, you don’t know?”
Deity Ott looked at him with an odd expression, “Have you ever heard of the greatest talent of a millennium from the Flowery Kingdom?”
Upon hearing this title, Virgil Harvey’s heart skipped a beat.
As expected, in the next instant, he became the focus of attention from all parties.
“Deity Ott, is the trainer you mentioned David Jones?” Phoenix Harrison, the Guildmaster of Flame City’s Trainer Guild, asked in shock.
“Yes, that’s the one.”
Deity Ott turned his head towards Jin Qisheng, his tone serious: “I originally felt that starting the Overlord’s path early for a young trainer who has just turned twenty was too harsh, but now it seems I have been somewhat negligent.”
“Ahem.” Deity Ott coughed lightly and continued, “Now it appears such a prodigy indeed needs special treatment. I hereby agree to open the Overlord’s path for him!”
After speaking, he turned to look at Virgil Harvey, his tone calm.
“According to the rules of the beastmaster list, those who are elevated to Epic automatically drop off the beastmaster list. Considering that David Jones has been on the beastmaster list for less than a year and hasn’t even received this year’s rewards, I can make a decision to give him some compensation.”
As these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly turned silent.
Envy flashed in the eyes of the Five Greatsts towards David Jones.
As the entity closest to an Immortal Trainer in the country, even a compensation from Deity Ott would be enticing for Legendary powerhouses.
Noticing that Virgil Harvey seemed somewhat disappointed, Deity Ott’s eyes flashed with curiosity.
Then he asked thoughtfully, “I don’t know much about David Jones, only that he has excellent cultivation talent. Guildmaster Harvey, you have met the boy; how do you assess his character, and does he have the potential to master perfect Bond Coordination?”
Virgil Harvey hesitated for a moment but decided to answer truthfully.
After all, the internal strife within the Harvey family veins was not enough for him to go against his principles.
“The young man is like a teacher, possessing the potential to master perfect Bond Coordination.”
“Good.”
Deity Ott nodded slightly, knowing how to compensate David Jones.
