Me and my fantasy world

Chapter 106: The Selection of Exotic Beasts Begins

It was still light in the morning.

A man in a house woke up from his bed with dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not slept well the night before.

Looking at the sky outside which had already turned pale, he stretched his waist lazily and said, "It's morning so soon. I wanted to sleep a little longer... Never mind. I can't sleep anyway. I'd better go to the training ground early to participate in the exotic beast selection. It was a close call this time. Fortunately, I was lucky and didn't get picked. Otherwise, I would have to sign the contract next year."

There was a creaking sound coming from the corridor inside the house, as if the door was opening.

"Huh? Are you here? It's a good opportunity for us to meet each other. Let's go to the academy and participate in the exotic beast..." The man was about to leave the room to greet his companion, but he ran into a man in gorgeous clothes.

Fei Li brought Ah Da into the house, and glanced at the house with some disdain, saying, "The place where the untouchables live is really small."

"Mr. Fei, Mr. Fei, what are you doing here?" The man was slightly startled, but perhaps he also understood a little bit of Feili's meaning, and stepped back slightly.

"Why am I here? Don't you know?" Fei Li smiled, followed the man's steps, and walked into the room. "You withdraw from the competition today and give me the opportunity first. Anyway, according to the regulations, you are still in the academy's exotic beast training class, and there will be plenty of opportunities next year."

“Ah? This, this, isn’t appropriate, Mr. Fei. After all, you lost to Xueyan, and everyone…” Before the man could finish his words, A Da had already rushed out from behind Fei Li, grabbed the man’s collar and lifted him up high.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, watch your tongue." Ah Da grabbed the man's collar and cursed.

"Ada, don't be impulsive." Fei Li was calm at this time. He put his arm around Ada's shoulder and said, "Put him down. Let's talk it over."

"Tsk..." After Ah Da couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, he finally put the man down.

But after the man landed, he couldn't stand up straight, and fell backwards, sitting on the head of his bed.

Fei Li walked forward, holding a folding fan in his hand, and asked, "So, do you understand what I said?"

"But Mr. Fei, I, I have an appointment with my friend..." The man wanted to struggle, but Fei Li immediately interrupted him.

"Your friend just agreed. I want your two seats. Let Ada and I go in instead. Your friend is next to you. He just agreed." Fei Li looked at the man with a half-smile. "But if you don't agree now, you can't guarantee what Ada will do to you."

Then the sunlight sneaking in from outside could see that Ah Da behind Fei Li had a ferocious expression on his face, and one of his arms had transformed into an eagle's claw. The man immediately nodded and said, "Understood, Master Fei..."

Fei Li nodded and unfolded the folding fan in his hand: "You are sensible. Okay... You don't have to go there in the morning. My father will help you solve everything."

"Yes... yes." The man did not dare to say more and let Feili control the pace of the conversation.

Ah Da looked at the sky, came behind Fei Li and said, "Master, it's time."

"Okay, let's go to the secret realm of exotic beasts." Feili said, shook his sleeves, and walked out of the house, leaving the man lying in the dark house like a wooden chicken, not saying a word.

Coming outside, feeling the sunlight covering the earth again, Fei Li admired the sunrise with interest: "Wait a minute, tell the guy with him the same thing, and you can come in with me."

"Yes." A Da said respectfully behind him.

"Yesterday's competition was just a momentary oversight. It ended so quickly as if it was a farce. I want to see how real and fake Xueyan's strength is after entering the secret realm today."

……

Zero One and the other two returned to the academy and came to the stadium, walking all the way to the central area. It was almost the same as usual, but there were a few more teachers. What caught Zero One's attention even more was that the dean was also standing there. Fortunately, she was already wearing a silver-white dress at this time, and standing there she had the temperament of a prince. Apart from the amazing low-cut design, there was nothing else to notice.

When Alice arrived at the center of the venue, she recognized the dean at first sight and immediately showed a disgusted expression: "Hey, Xiaoyi, is this true, the dean?" Alice did not enter the venue immediately, but hurried to Lingyi's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Otherwise, you can't tell. I was also very puzzled at the time." On the way to the college, Lingyi tried his best to explain the matter of the dean to Alice, and finally made things clear.

Alice didn't dare to believe it at first, but after thinking it over, she still believed what Zero-One said. Alice couldn't explain why, she just simply believed her friends and didn't even believe her own judgment.

Leo was also shocked when he heard it, but he believed it because it was said by Zero One. Zero One couldn't believe it either. He wanted to explain the reason, but Alice and Leo didn't seem to care at all. Instead, they relied heavily on their own intelligence, which made Zero One confused.

"Then let's go and take a look. Will the dean pounce on you then?" Leo looked at the dean in confusion, then looked at Lingyi beside him.

"It shouldn't be possible. After all, it's such a big occasion..." Alice was skeptical and looked back at Lingyi.

"I don't think she will. After all, it's such a big place, she probably doesn't want to lose face." Lingyi took the lead and walked down from the audience seats to the central area.

"Well... okay." Alice and Leo didn't say much, and slowly followed Lingyi into the venue.

The three of them walked all the way to the center and came in front of Otto. Behind Otto were several teachers standing in a row. The one in the middle was the dean, and next to the dean was also someone Lingyi knew.

What caught his eye was the round belly. His clothes and pants could hardly cover him and he was sticking to the ground. His legs were almost shrunk to half the length of a normal person. Zero One recognized him at a glance. Wasn't this guy the messenger who brought him, Alice and Leo to Nord Town five years ago?

Lingyi couldn't remember the names of the other teachers, and didn't care much about them.

Otto's face looked grim, as if he had something to say but couldn't open it.

"Teacher? What's wrong with you?" Alice was the first to notice that something was wrong with Otto and looked at him in confusion.

"No, it's okay..." Otto nodded slightly, then looked at Lingyi.

Lingyi tilted his head in confusion and looked at Otto: "What's wrong, teacher? Do you have something to tell me?"

"I... I don't know how to start." Otto said, his eyes wandering around randomly, but after hesitating for a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind and clenched his fists.

Seeing this scene, Lingyi couldn't help but complain: "Is... the world going to be destroyed? Why are you so nervous, teacher?"

"What are you talking about!" Otto tapped Lingyi's head unhappily, then cleared his throat, "Ahem, you three should be mentally prepared for what I am about to say. There are two male students who may..."

"It's not possible, it's definitely impossible for him to come." Fei Li's voice sounded from behind, and he slowly entered with A Da.

When Fei Li appeared, the whole audience was in an uproar. There were many spectators present yesterday who witnessed Fei Li's defeat. Now is the seventh day, the day for the selection of alien beasts to go to the alien beast secret realm. The venue is naturally crowded with people, and when they saw Fei Li, they all lowered their heads and talked. After all, his identity was there, and no one dared to accuse him directly.

Feili came all the way to the right side of Zero One. Alice, who was originally on Zero One's side, also came to the left side of Zero One, sandwiched between Leo and Zero One. Ada came to Feili's side.

Fei Li tilted his head, glanced at Ling Yi and said, "Brother Xue Yan, how are you? I didn't expect that we can enter the secret realm of exotic beasts together again today. It can be said to be a great fate."

"Oh, really?" Lingyi was very calm. Leo and Alice didn't say anything either, but they looked at Fili with unfriendly eyes.

The calm attitude of the three people aroused Otto's curiosity. He was struggling with this matter. As far as the academy was concerned, Feili and Ada had already been eliminated, but for some reason two boys withdrew at the same time in the morning, leaving two vacancies among the five students. Feili and Ada had to be arranged in. No need to guess, it was all Feili's doing.

Otto's eyes were naturally very unfriendly when he looked at Feili, but he was more apologetic, an apology to Lingyi, an apology for not being a good teacher. He wanted to explain it to Lingyi, but he didn't know where to start. But now seeing Lingyi's calm expression, Otto was also slightly surprised.

This was even more so for Fei Li. Seeing Ling Yi so calm, as if he had expected her to come. She had only started to persuade him this morning because she was afraid of information leakage, and she almost missed this event because of this. She thought she would just give Ling Yi a little scare, but she didn't expect that Ling Yi was the calmest person in the audience except for a few teachers who knew the truth.

"What, have you guessed that I would come?" Feili couldn't help but ask.

"That's about right. I actually think it's a bit strange that you didn't come." Lingyi shook his shoulders indifferently.

"Oh? Where should I start?" Fei Li became interested instead. He opened his folding fan and tapped it gently in front of his chest.

"It's not that complicated. Master Fei is naturally a little dissatisfied with yesterday's sloppy competition. I also think that such a competition is a bit too trivial, and it doesn't seem to be able to show the true level of the three of us. So I hope you can come a little bit, so that we can compete fairly in the secret realm." Lingyi made up an excuse.

But Feili seemed to take it seriously: "Okay, Brother Xue, I won't be polite either. After we enter the secret realm, you and I must compete to see who is better."

"If we want to compete, I will naturally be happy to accept the challenge." Lingyi bowed respectfully.

Seeing Lingyi and Feili like this, Otto's heart was relieved. It seemed that Lingyi, as the winner, did not feel that Feili was inappropriate at this time. Otto cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, you can talk about what happens after entering the secret realm of the strange beasts. Now let's start talking about what happened inside the secret realm of the strange beasts."

"First, regarding the secret realm of strange beasts, rows of secret realm stairs will appear in a moment, with about 128 floors. Every 16 steps you climb, there will be a pressure of about one level of cultivation to suppress your progress. At the end, there will be a pressure of about seven levels of cultivation. I believe that with your current cultivation level, you should be able to pass it easily."

"Second, the opening time of the Exotic Beast Secret Realm is a whole day, that is, the opening time is from now until this time tomorrow morning. The time inside the secret realm is consistent with the outside world. You must always pay attention to the time and explore the secret area as soon as possible to find a suitable exotic beast to sign a contract. Otherwise, you will be trapped in the Exotic Beast Secret Realm, which is very dangerous. You must understand."

"Third, the Exotic Beast Secret Realm is not as fair, just and open as our normal competition. Fights may break out at any time and anywhere for the right Exotic Beast. You must be careful about the consumption of your magic power during the battle and avoid outside students from interfering in the fight. At the same time, if you feel that your magic power is insufficient and you need to withdraw from the selection, you can come back first, but everyone will not be able to enter after returning, so everyone needs to be aware of this."

"Fourth, entering the Secret Realm of Exotic Beasts will randomly teleport the five of you to five different locations. There may be students from other academies around you. It is best to act as a group, but over the years, it has been rare to find teammates from the same academy. The same is true for other major academies."

"In addition, there are many places in the Secret Realm of Exotic Beasts that we are not familiar with, as well as many mazes, traps, and even treasure chests that we have not touched upon. If you want to try, you can go and give it a try. If you are lucky, you can also find a treasure chest in the wild. But don't say I didn't remind you, be careful in the wild, there may be an exotic beast that has transformed into a treasure chest."
