Chapter 43 Preliminary Round
Looking at the attributes of the Departure Crow, Chi Yao was silent. This was just a spirit, and the attributes after the bonus were too subtle for him. If he showed these attributes to others, he would probably be mistaken for a summoner.
After Chi Yao signed a spiritual contract with Du'e Crow, one more item was added to Chi Yao's skill list.
Spiritual Contract: Three-Star Raven (Passive)
Skill effects: Health increased by 200 points, mana increased by 50 points, strength +2, agility +3, stamina +2, intelligence +2, charm +5.
"Now my survivability has been greatly improved. Before, I was always worried that my small body couldn't withstand the damage. Even being shocked can cause 8% damage." Chi Yao thought, and he was in a good mood as he watched his attributes increase.
Chi Yao stroked the little head of the Crow and said, "What name do you want? Crow, how about it?"
"Oh oh oh!" The Du'e Crow made a happy sound and rubbed Chi Yao's head, indicating that he liked the name very much.
Chi Yao touched it and found that Yaya's smooth feathers felt really good. He couldn't help but stroke it a few more times. Yaya also seemed comfortable and rubbed Chi Yao's palm with its little head.
"It seems like you two are getting along pretty well. Boy, you should treat your familiar well!" Ba Huang reminded them as he watched Chi Yao and Ya Ya getting along.
"Yes, we will be best partners." Chi Yao responded.
Chi Yao began to test Ya Ya's abilities. Ya Ya was still in its juvenile form, but its strong physical attributes were enough to make it capable of standing on its own. Moreover, its small body could now unleash greater power.
Its small size means it is not easy to be hit, but with its high agility and strength, it can charge forward like a nail, with extraordinary piercing power.
As for special abilities, except for fate tracking, there is none. But after all, it is a familiar spirit that matches Chi Yao's attributes. Yaya is just born. After growing up and obtaining a combat form, it is estimated that it will awaken abilities related to the fate system.
——On
the other side of the island, the development of the plot is also coming to an end.
Wang Situ successfully absorbed the remaining blood crystals with the help of the Wanse Spirit Seed, allowing the Winged Tiger to evolve into the two-star combat form of the Decepticon, and the side effects of the forced battle spirit fusion were also eliminated. After fighting Ling Yaotian with the Fallen Spirit Master's vest, he evacuated in the chaos and found Bai Jie.
Ji Shaoqing, in accordance with the original plan, surrendered to the Great Venus Dongfang Xianxian and became a prisoner in order to sneak into the headquarters of the Eastern Council.
——Afterwards
, Wang Situ also returned to the canyon and made an appointment with Bahuang to compete with him in terms of mastery.
Chi Yao and Wang Situ have "fought side by side" before, and Chi Yao did not expose Wang Situ's identity as a fallen spirit master, which made Wang Situ recognize Chi Yao a lot.
[Wang Situ (Son of the World 60%)'s favorability towards you increases by 20 points, and now it is 58 points. The relationship is friends. ]
Under the arrangement of Overlord, Chi Yao followed Wang Situ and his party on a flying boat to Dongji Island.
If Bahuang Island is a rural town in the countryside, then Dongji Island is a rapidly developing high-tech city.
Towering buildings, bustling streets, and shops open everywhere.
Looking at the prosperous city scene around him, Chi Yao was also a little amazed. This was a fantasy-style high-tech city.
[The hunter has arrived at Dongji Island. ]
[The first round of the main mission has been completed. ]
[You gain 1 attribute point.]
[The Hunter has activated the second stage of the main quest - passing the six-part selection semi-finals]
Chi Yao planned to take a walk around the city first to see if he could trigger the hunting function provided by the park, so he said goodbye to Wang Situ and others.
Wang Situ took Bai Jie for a stroll, and then met the high-level officials of the parliament with the black iron token, and informed them that there was a fallen spirit master who would disrupt the selection exam. He then served as an examiner of the selection exam with the identity of the Overlord's special envoy.
After walking around, Chi Yao found that the hunting function did not respond at all, so he could only click on the task details to view them.
[Second round of the main mission: pass the six-part selection semi-finals]
[Difficulty level: LV.5]
[Task Introduction: Participate in the Spirit Master Selection Competition]
[Task information: Participate in the Spirit Master Selection Competition and pass at least six selection semi-finals. ]
[Task deadline: before the end of the Spirit Master Selection Competition]
[Quest Reward: Attribute Points +2, Return Qualification, Open the third ring of the main quest. ]
[Mission Penalty: Forced Execution]
"Sure enough, there is a third ring of main tasks. However, the standards of the paradise in this world are very relaxed. As long as you complete two rings of main tasks, you will be eligible to return. Does this mean that the subsequent tasks will be difficult?" Chi Yao thought.
"That's right. After all, those who come to Dongji Island are all first-level contractors. A three-star spirit controller may not be able to defeat an ordinary first-level contractor, let alone a four-star spirit controller. And in the subsequent plot, after Banquanzhimen obtains the heart of the Sea Emperor Mirage (shen fourth tone), his illusion ability alone is a five-star combat power, and there is also Ji Shaoqing, a four-star peak combat power."
"Thinking carefully, I feel that the ability of Banquan Mask can fit in with Weiyun Mask, so I can give it a try." Chi Yao thought and made a decision.
——Soon
, the preliminary round was held in Dongji Square on Dongji Island. In the center of the square stood a 12-meter-high pillar.
There were quite a lot of candidates gathered there, no less than 400 at a glance.
Chi Yao also scanned the crowd and found many people with special temperaments, who were obviously contractors!
In addition to the Luo Tang Adventure Group and the two individual contractors on Bahuang Island, there were 6 individual contractors in the square.
These people looked at each other, their eyes full of vigilance.
Soon, the preliminaries began.
"Silence! The preliminary round of the Spirit Master professional exam begins!"
The voice came from under the pillar, where two figures were standing. One was Yi, one of the Seven Censors of the Parliament, and the other was Qingti, the Minister of Works of the Parliament. Both of them were four-star spirit masters.
"Zha Bai, activate the Ministry of Industry's prototype No. 1 test mechanism: Optimus Prime!" Qingti said to the four-star spiritual Baili mechanical toad in his hand.
The pillar also issued a mechanical prompt sound: "Optimus Prime, start."
Seeing this scene, the candidates immediately started making a fuss.
Yi looked annoyed and said, "I'll only demonstrate it once! This pillar can barely test the strength of a four-star. Tushan, don't break it."
As Yi's four-star spirit attacked Optimus Prime, a green color rose from the bottom of Optimus Prime and quickly covered the entire shaft.
Yi explained: "The color of the column represents the star level of the spirit. White, red, orange, yellow, green, and cyan represent 0 to 5 stars."
"The higher the color change, the stronger the attack from the spirit."
"Aim at Optimus Prime and release the spirit's attack. As long as the color changes to the height that reaches the line, it will be considered a pass regardless of the color."
"If you pass the preliminary election, you will get a junior spirit control license and be eligible to participate in the subsequent elections of the parliament."
After briefly explaining the rules, the two examiners signaled the candidates to go on stage one by one.
"Candidate No. 9 failed!"
"Candidate No. 14 passed!"
"Candidate No. 16 failed!"
Soon it was Bai Jie's turn. After her first attack went astray, with the help of Hei Jie, she successfully twisted her attack and hit Optimus Prime, achieving excellent results. (In the original novel, in layman's terms, Hei Jie is Bai Jie's sister, and the two are two souls.)
The protagonist of the Spirit Master, Ye Xiao, achieved outstanding results, and Gong Cheng Yue achieved excellent results.
Soon it was Chi Yao's turn. Chi Yao decided to hide his abilities and only use his magic abilities, not exposing Ya Ya, and gathering wind blade attacks to achieve excellent results.
First update.
As for the name of the spirit, Ya Ya, it was voted by group members.
Thank you all readers for your recommendation votes and monthly votes, thank you for your support!
