Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 848 - 365: One Man, One City! What in the World Is This?
Previously on Beast Taming: the More the Better...
This individual is utterly berserk!
At this precise moment, Li Han, along with every other participant on the verge of entering Dream Island, harbored the exact same thought.
Su Ping has lost his mind.
How else could he possibly utter such a statement in the presence of so many onlookers?
Just how expansive is Dream Island? It rivals the size of a small metropolis.
Despite the peculiar topography dictating a single primary route for entry and exit, what grants Su Ping the audacity to claim the entirety of Dream Island for himself?
Does the Provincial Exam Secret Realm belong to him?
While some may ponder the preceding interview and potential accusations of favoritism, others remained indifferent, and a few even offered their approval.
This is because, given Su Ping's demonstrated prowess and standing, many had previously witnessed such youthful impetuosity.
However, the present circumstances are distinctly different.
This directly impinges upon their vested interests!
Within Dream Island, one can find not only formidable ferocious beasts and the coveted Emperor Level Dream Mist Stone but also a plethora of other valuable resources.
Otherwise, it would hardly be designated as the focal point of the Provincial Exam Secret Realm, and numerous forum discussions over many days have highlighted Dream Island as the crucial location for anyone aspiring to secure a position within the top ten of this grand examination.
Yet now, Su Ping intends to unilaterally blockade the entrance?
How can such a notion even be entertained?
They had hurried to Dream Island with the express purpose of securing an advantageous position first.
Although the Provincial Exam Secret Realm is vast, its resources are finite, and once claimed by another, rendered obsolete, or converted into another's score, it would cease to be their concern!
Who could possibly tolerate a situation that directly threatens their immediate gains?
Consider Li Han, for instance, who had just extended an invitation for a joint endeavor, only to be rebuffed by Su Ping; he is undeniably among them.
"Su Ping, have you truly lost your senses? Aside from the abundant resources scattered across Dream Island, there are no less than ten Monarch-level ferocious beasts present! Do you intend to rely on a solitary pet beast to conquer Dream Island, with your primary battle pet left to guard the entrance?"
Su Ping cast a brief glance at this individual and offered a slight smile:
"There is no necessity for you to fret over such matters. Naturally, you are welcome to attempt it, and upon your elimination, you may witness the proceedings through my first-person live broadcast!"
With those words, Su Ping clearly indicated no inclination for further discourse, turning without delay and proceeding into the island's valley, which was enshrouded in a subtle mist, leaving the assembled group outside in a state of bewildered contemplation.
"It is truly beyond comprehension!"
Within the commentary booth of the live broadcast studio, Wang Luo's voice echoed with clarity throughout the venue:
"The recent display was sufficient to attest that Su Ping's pet beast is in no way inferior to the primary battle pets wielded by the other contestants! Nevertheless, Su Ping's subsequent actions have surpassed everyone's expectations even further.
To dominate Dream Island! What level of strength and confidence empowers Su Ping to possess such unwavering self-assurance? Will the other contestants acquiesce to Su Ping's audacious claim? Will they mount a defiant resistance, or will they retreat and return the way they came?"
Undeniably, no one observing the live broadcast of the Provincial Exam could have anticipated that, within less than two hours of the Provincial Exam's commencement on the very first day, the atmosphere would escalate to such a fever pitch owing to Su Ping's series of provocative actions.
Concurrently, given the internal dynamics of the Jianghai Province examination and the considerable popularity Su Ping garnered during the preceding Breeder Competition, the viewership figures for Jianghai's live broadcast began to surge dramatically.
Not to mention, at this very juncture, the viewership ratings for Su Ping's individual live broadcast leaped to an impressive third place!
Furthermore, it established a substantial lead over the fourth-place broadcast!
As for the top two positions, their circumstances are somewhat unique, not necessarily stemming from exceptional individual strength.
Rather, these leading two contestants are a pair of young beast tamers who have been actively promoted by a prominent entertainment conglomerate within the Dragon Nation, celebrated for their exceptional combination of skill, striking appearance, and captivating performance abilities.
While an objective evaluation of their actual combat prowess remains elusive, there is no doubt that following the nationwide launch of the Provincial Exam, coupled with extensive and costly promotional campaigns, their audience reach and public attention have become overwhelmingly dominant.
In contrast, the attention directed towards Su Ping is undeniably substantive and grounded in genuine accomplishment.
Indeed, after capturing these pivotal moments, a significant number of viewers chose to remain tuned in, eschewing immediate departure after the initial novelty wore off.
This surge in sustained viewership propelled Su Ping's name far beyond the confines of the Jianghai Province forum, directly inscribing it onto the national trending topics list, with its ranking steadily ascending.
This remarkable development inevitably spurred the three commentators, who were diligently monitoring these evolving trends, into heightened activity.
Hu Yue, responding to Wang Luo's inquiry, offered a thoughtful smile:
"Dream Island serves as the central hub of the Provincial Exam Secret Realm; as one can observe from the expansive map display, numerous cadets are still en route towards Dream Island. Regardless of the circumstances, it appears highly improbable that Su Ping can maintain exclusive dominion over Dream Island. The pertinent question, therefore, becomes: how much further disruption can this 'mutated Paperman' orchestrate moving forward?"
Yes, observed through the satellite's aerial map, which the director meticulously adjusted, each tiny green dot symbolizing a cadet was in motion. They advanced with varying speeds toward the island's core, Dream Island itself. To underscore the gravity of the events unfolding at Dream Island, the director ingeniously divided the screen. One section continued the standard live commentary, tracking individual cadets, while the other broadcasted the unfolding situation directly at Dream Island's entrance. However, to the astonishment of both the commentators and the vast audience, neither Li Han nor any other cadet exhibited haste in making the initial move. They permitted Su Ping to enter Dream Island unaccompanied.
