The Changheng Group's internal selection competition has been held for five years, and because it is related to the Mystic Ground quota, it is quite well-known in the Jianghuai region.

Last year, a TV station even broadcasted part of the live competition.

This year's situation is even more special.

Because the National High School Beast Tamers League ended a month earlier than in previous years, and it coincided with the Changheng Group's 250th-anniversary celebration, the rewards for the champions and runners-up were no less than those of major events.

Therefore, many young Beast Tamers who had already made a name for themselves flocked to participate in this year's Changheng Cup.

For example, Lin Yingluo.

For example, Fu Sushu.

For example, Rui Qianwu and Sheng Shiyan.

They all achieved impressive results in this year's National High School Beast Tamers League.

And these national Beast Tamers competitions are usually the most fan-attracting; as long as one performs well enough on the field, they can gain a large number of fans and attention.

Just like Fu Sushu, with his handsome appearance and aloof demeanor, his family background and talent are extraordinary in every way, he has represented his school in the National High School Beast Tamers League for two consecutive years and achieved impressive results.

In Mingxi's previous life, he was definitely the male lead of a campus novel.

So even though he rarely managed Mengo Blog, his account had nearly five million followers.

Comparable to a third-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry.

In the Beast Tamers era, Beast Tamers with both strength and good looks are the most sought after.

This also directly led to the Changheng Cup's popularity this year far exceeding any previous session.

It was an unprecedented grand occasion.

But no one expected it.

Lin Yingluo was eliminated by a junior high school boy before even entering the group stage.

Fans thought this was already magical enough, but something even more unexpected happened.

The hot favorite to win, Rui Qianwu, who owns a Dragon-type pet, lost in the group stage to a Grade # Nоvеlight # Two girl who was only 14 years old.

Her pet was a Thunder Demon Bird, which the Alliance had determined could not evolve to the Advanced Level!

It was utterly ridiculous, beyond belief.

The hot searches exploded.

"I'm very curious, can intermediate pets easily defeat Advanced Level pets now? But my Ink-tailed Civet can't do it, what should I do? Will I be eliminated by this society? I'm really panicking now!"

"Panic +1"

"Panic +2"

"Panic +10086"

"Upstairs, is 10086 an old meme from what era?"

"Everyone calm down, intermediate pets defeating Advanced Level pets is a low-probability event, don't think anyone can do it, those who can do it are not human!"

"I can somewhat understand the Crimson Flame Tiger defeating Doudy Aibo, after all, fire counters poison, and that Crimson Flame Tiger also has the characteristic of Flame Body, but the Thunder Demon Bird defeating the Si Saimoka Dragon, I really can't understand that."

"Same as above."

"My brother is a Professional Beastmaster, I just asked my brother to watch the Thunder Demon Bird and Si Saimoka Dragon match, do you know what my brother said?"

"Upstairs, stop playing coy, or I'll stab your lungs."

"My brother said that the little Beast Tamers named Mingxi might be able to use Space-Time Prediction, you all know about Space-Time Prediction, right?"

"Hehe, your brother is probably not a Professional Beastmaster, but a professional swindler, right? What is Space-Time Prediction? It's a super skill that only a very small number of talented Professional Beastmasters can master. How old is that Mingxi? 14 years old! It is said that she only awakened less than a month ago! To say she can use Space-Time Prediction, why don't you say your brother is Xie Zhaoliang!"

Xie Zhaoliang is one of the outstanding young Professional Beastmasters of the new generation in Dragonflower Country, a superstar player.

"...Believe it or not, that's what my brother said!"

"Upstairs, your brother exploded."

"Tomorrow is the last day of the Changheng Cup, right? It's Sunday, I've decided to go to the site myself, anyone want to come along? Let's meet up!"

"I envy the person upstairs who is from Han Ning City, I also want to go, but the journey is too far."

"I'm in the neighboring city, it's convenient for me to go, I've already bought my bus ticket to Han Ning City for tomorrow morning! I want to see with my own eyes how fierce that Thunder Demon Bird is!"

...

While the Changheng Group's internal selection competition was stirring up unprecedented popularity online, no one noticed that a blogger with less than a hundred followers posted a new update.

"Today at work, I received a child who came for a contract ceremony. She awakened the Phantom Color Key, and the Key's quality is very high, Five-Star! But I don't know what she was thinking, she chose to 'open a blind box', and then opened a Fossil Egg! Later inspection showed that this Fossil Egg has existed for at least a thousand years."

Mingxi had no idea how much conversation she had provided for the bored public.

9 PM, hotel room.

After two days, the Time Realm finally Descent again.

Mingxi, with her backpack, holding the pet egg in her hand, and Golden Yuanbao perched on her shoulder, stepped into the open door ahead.

"Welcome back, Master."

"Congratulations, Master, on successfully contracting your second pet."

The moment she heard Guangguang's voice, Mingxi eagerly asked, "Guangguang, can you tell what type of pet my Second Baby is?"

She didn't know if it was Second Baby that was special, or the Fossil Egg, but the Yushou Center's instruments couldn't detect what kind of egg it was.

This caused her personal information interface, the pet column, to now change to —

Pets: Thunder Demon Bird (Intermediate), Unknown (Fossil Egg)

It looked both absurd and heartbreaking.

With current technology and the abilities of Transcendent creatures, it shouldn't be undetectable.

"Cannot determine for now. Master can try to use the equipment in Room 1 to test it later."

Even Guangguang can't tell?

Alright then.

First, draw the duration.

Today she had two turntable opportunities.

So she spun the turntable twice in a row.

Her luck in drawing duration was always relatively good, and today, without the debuff from the toilet god, her performance indeed returned to stable.

One time 30 hours, one time 36 hours.

Sixes and good fortune!

Mingxi then discovered that in addition to Golden Yuanbao having a countdown light board above its head, the pet egg also had one.

However, its was pink, particularly dreamy and girlish.

But Golden Yuanbao seemed unable to see it.

It seemed that only she, as a Beast Tamers, could see the light board.

"Master, the Time Realm absorbed a large amount of overflowing energy from the Thunder Pool two days ago. After the fusion and evolution of the laws, a small Thunder Pool has now appeared within the Time Realm."

Mingxi was stunned. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

These two days, busy with the competition, she almost forgot that the reason the Time Realm was closed for a day was because it absorbed the Thunder Pool's energy.

"Are you saying there's a Thunder Pool in the Time Realm now?"

"Yes."

"So that means Golden Yuanbao and I can soak in the Thunder Pool every day from now on?"

"Yes."

Very good, very powerful.

It didn't waste valuable reward time.

Indeed, there is gain only with sacrifice.

"Golden Yuanbao, our training time is very ample today, so the training plan needs to change. This is what we'll do: you'll first soak in the Thunder Pool for an hour, then..."

After quickly arranging Golden Yuanbao's training tasks for the next 66 hours, Mingxi did not let it go to the Thunder Pool immediately. Instead, she carried the pet egg and entered Room 1 together.

As usual, first a test.

She placed the Fossil Egg aside and picked up Golden Yuanbao's report.

2000 years later...

Mingxi remained silent.
