Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 857 - 368: One Against a Thousand? Qian Yi’s Sword Strikes! (Part 2)

"Indeed, with the personal arrival of Boss Yan and Sister Yaoyao, they will definitely lead us to explore Dream Island."
"In my opinion, we should have joined forces earlier and entered together. That way, we wouldn't have allowed Su Ping to gain such a significant lead right from the start."
"The way you put it, if Boss Yan and the others don't show up, who else possesses the influence to unite everyone?"
A buzz of discussion filled the crowd. Despite their seemingly genuine words, as if they were all united, in reality, most kept a respectful distance from each other, with the exception of their own squad members.
Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao observed this scene but paid it little mind, understanding the situation implicitly.
It was inevitable that so many individuals would converge to enter Dream Island.
Because even if Su Ping were truly formidable and unyielding, he couldn't possibly prevent their collective arrival!
There were simply too many people involved.
However, those who had lingered until this point, were any among them truly foolish?
Everyone was acutely aware of these underlying dynamics.
But within the Provincial Exam Secret Realm, the available wild resources were finite.
Now, why had these individuals all congregated at Dream Island?
Wasn't it precisely because, with the participation of these students, the wild ferocious beasts and resources elsewhere had been largely depleted?
The credit scores had reached a near-stable point.
Therefore, what other avenues remained to accrue more credits or potentially improve their rankings?
That's right! It had to be the contestants themselves!
A mere twenty credits!
This seemed logical; it had been speculated that during the initial two days, all students focused on claiming wild resources, but on this final day of the provincial exam, they would inevitably face the most intense confrontations!
Thus, despite the outward appearance of camaraderie, nearly everyone remained on high alert.
Unless Dream Island genuinely held an abundance of wild resources for everyone to seize, this internal conflict among students, the ensuing chaos and free-for-all, was highly likely to erupt within Dream Island!
This wasn't mere conjecture, but a highly probable outcome.
After all, Su Ping's credit score was exceptionally high; such a leading position indicated that even if Dream Island possessed additional resources, they would never be sufficient to satisfy everyone.
When that moment arrived, battles between beast tamers would be unavoidable!
Undoubtedly, this unfolding scenario also captured the attention and gazes of all the spectators present at this very moment:
"Speaking of which, I'm genuinely eager to witness the pet beast battle between Yan Fan and Li Yaoyao's companions against Su Ping's Paper Man. That Paper Man appeared quite peculiar!"
"That's rather unlikely. Su Shen isn't foolish. Facing such a multitude while his credits are likely secure within the top ten, there's no compelling reason for him to provoke so many, is there?"
"Precisely. Instead of anticipating that, it's more worthwhile to look forward to the inevitable chaos within Dream Island once everyone arrives, and to discover the exact location of that Dream Mist Stone!"
Someone analyzed the situation based on the current circumstances, proposing the most probable course of events.
And indeed, this reflected the reality; commentators, referees, and the medical support team were all on high alert at this moment, anticipating the beast tamer battle that was poised to erupt prematurely.
The main broadcast feed also focused its attention at this crucial juncture, directed towards the entrance of Dream Island's valley!
Its gaze was fixed upon that Paper Man, standing motionless like a guardian of the valley, adorned with a large conical hat and enveloped in a flowing cloaked cape.
However, at this moment, what truly astonished many viewers was the sight of the Paper Man radiating a vibrant, five-colored luminescence.
Resembling a dazzling neon sign, in stark contrast to its previously understated demeanor, this peculiar Paper Man was now almost excessively conspicuous.
Nevertheless, even with this spectacle, the leading Yan Fan seemed unfazed. He didn't even directly observe the Paper Man, but rather appeared to be gazing past it, focusing on Su Ping concealed within the valley.
It was evident that Yan Fan was not acting thoughtlessly; he understood that even if he could defeat Su Ping, it wouldn't definitively prove his superiority over this younger individual, Su Xiao, who was more than four years his junior.
Therefore, Yan Fan maintained an extremely courteous tone:
"Beast Breeder Su, I also wish to explore Dream Island! Could you possibly ask your pet beast to step aside?"
He was confident that Su Ping could hear him and was fully aware of the circumstances surrounding Dream Island's current situation.
And in truth, this was indeed the case.
Su Ping's figure gradually materialized from the subtle mist behind, stepping forth beneath the heavy clouds and approaching not far away.
He had long been aware that a multitude of people were heading towards Dream Island.
However, this knowledge wasn't obtained through Qian Yi or by utilizing the Soul Contract, but rather through his final pet beast.
Yes, it was Feifei who had relayed the information to Su Ping.
Firstly, Feifei possessed the capability to connect to external networks at any time, rendering the realm's network and signal blockades utterly irrelevant to her.
Even though Feifei was simulating wireless signals with her spiritual power, and the student watches were connected to the network despite weak signal strength, Feifei had already infiltrated the entire Provincial Exam Secret Realm. She was fully aware of every detail within it. As a result, numerous discussions flooded online forums, with many speculating about the identity of Su Ping's unsummoned third pet, which was believed to be his ultimate trump card. However, unknown to everyone, Feifei had already been subtly influencing events, though not directly participating on the main battlefield.
