Beast Tamer: Why is the intelligence system a game announcement?

Chapter 27 Beastmaster Level Assessment Begins

The assessment site for novice beast tamers was packed with people and filled with noise.

"Why are there so many people?"

Looking at the vast sea of ​​people in front of him, Lin Wu felt somewhat lost.

He covered his ears, but couldn't block out the noise. With a sigh, he looked around.

This venue was clearly built by the Ningcheng Beast Tamer Association.

As the world's largest neutral organization, the Beastmaster Association spans the Eastern Federation and the Western Empire, playing a coordinating role. They issue almost all beastmaster certifications, and similarly, they handle the majority of competitions and beastmaster level assessments.

This time is no exception.

However, looking at the square in front of him, a place with nothing but people, Lin Wu racked his brains but still couldn't figure out how to start the next assessment.

Isn't the point to avoid disasters? How can we avoid disasters in this square?

Are you sure this is really your assessment location?

Just as Lin Wu was pondering, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man who looked very tired hurriedly walk onto the stage. In an instant, the bustling venue quieted down, as if the middle-aged man with dark circles under his eyes was some very important person.

From the audience, Lin Wu could hear the whispers of the other people.

"What's he doing here? Isn't he supposed to be presiding over this year's professional qualification assessment?"

"Oh no, I have a feeling this year's exam questions are going to be hellish..."

"No way! This is my first year taking the exam!"

What's going on?

Lin Wu was startled for a moment, then heard the middle-aged man cough twice and begin speaking into the microphone.

"Hello? Hello everyone, I am Fang Fujun, the president of the Ningcheng branch of the Beast Tamer Association, and also the chief examiner for this session."

His face was covered with dark circles from working overtime, and for some reason, Lin Wu felt that there was a hint of helplessness on his face.

"As you can see, this is the venue for our assessment... Don't worry, the formal assessment will not begin in this crowded square."

At this point, Fang Fujun finally smiled and said:

"This assessment will take place in a dream."

"Now, the rules for this assessment will be read out."

"The topic of this exam is 'Disaster Avoidance'! Specifically, it will simulate various disasters that Beast Tamers might encounter in the wilderness, testing your ability to avoid disasters!"

"The Beast Tamer Association will prepare a separate dream world as the examination venue for all candidates, ensuring their safety. Time flows differently in the dream world than in reality, and the final assessment criterion is the Beast Tamer's survival time within the examination venue!"

"Well then, fellow beast tamers—"

"Are you ready to face the wilderness?"

This is clearly a question that is not expected to receive any answers.

The instant she finished speaking, Lin Wu saw a white sprite appear beside Fang Fujun.

It was a tapir, seemingly asleep the whole time. But the instant the tapir opened its eyes, Lin Wu felt as if she and the hallucinogenic insects had fallen into some kind of unavoidable chaos.

The next moment, consciousness seemed to transcend the endless chaos and gradually faded away.

Everyone around gradually disappeared, leaving only the hallucinogenic insect in Lin Wu's arms...

Lin Wu was startled and immediately touched her back, only feeling relieved after touching the 30-kilogram backpack.

He looked around at the emptiness and was about to say something when he saw a sign in front of him with words that kept changing before finally settling on one.

"Candidate No. 1977, Lin Wu."

"Welcome to the test center. Next, you will face a wilderness disaster..."

What is it?

Lin Wu pondered to himself while looking down.

Then, I saw four large characters.

"Volcanic eruption."

Lin Wu: ?

Wait a minute, wait a minute?

You mean I'll encounter a volcanic eruption in the wilderness, right?

Is this even reasonable?

But the next moment, before Lin Wu could think, he was arrested and taken into the examination center.

Then, in the next moment, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, as if the dream had been altered. The void disappeared, and when Lin Wu came to his senses, he and the hallucinogenic insects were already standing on the slightly warm ground, and in front of them were massive, rumbling mountains.

"babble?"

The hallucinogenic insect cried out in confusion, while Lin Wu took a deep breath and took off the backpack from his back.

"It's okay..."

Lin Wu murmured softly, reaching out to pat the hallucinogenic insects, her gaze resolute.

"Although no specific measures were taken... it is still within the scope of the contingency plan."

After all, I have a lot of contingency plans.

..............................

Meanwhile, inside the real square.

Fang Fujun looked at the examinees who had all fallen asleep, along with their spirits, sighed, and gently patted the tapir floating beside him. The tapir let out a cheerful cry and then went back to sleep.

Fang Fujun picked up the floating tapir and quickly walked off the stage to the back of the examination room.

Then, I saw the woman sitting in front of the monitor, staring intently at the screen.

"...Master Bai."

Facing the woman with graying temples, Fang Fujun lowered his head and addressed her respectfully.

At the same time, I couldn't stop sweating.

Damn it, what's this plague god up to today? How did he end up at their Ningcheng branch?

He was preparing to proctor the professional-level exams when, before he could even settle in, he heard that this jinx had arrived and specifically requested to see the beginner-level apprentice beast tamer exams... This scared Fang Fujun so much that he rushed over here to proctor the exams.

Even as a top-tier professional beast tamer, Fang Fujun dared not act presumptuously in front of her, nor even show the slightest disrespect... After all, her early experiences were truly chilling.

Bai Su turned to look at the floating tapir and praised it:

"Well done. An advanced Dream Eater. As a Psychic-type Pokémon, you're the only professional Beastmaster I know who can manage such a large-scale operation."

"Master Bai, you flatter me."

Fang Fujun lowered his head and immediately replied in a muffled voice. After a moment, not receiving a reply from Bai Su, he cautiously raised his head, only to find that she had started watching the surveillance footage again.

So, he asked somewhat hesitantly:

"Master Bai... what brings you here?"

Bai Su glanced at him and said calmly, "It's alright, no need to be so nervous. What happened back then is in the past, and I'm not an unreasonable person."

"As for now... I'm only here to see someone."

As she spoke, as if she had finally found her target, she brought up the image.

The boy stood in the void, seemingly somewhat bewildered, while Bai Su watched this scene with great interest.

"Has the assessment not started yet?"

"No...no. Is this the person you approve of?"

Fang Fujun asked cautiously. Bai Su shrugged.

"Let's just say I think this kid has some potential. Oh, by the way, could you adjust the difficulty of the assessment?"

"this……"

Fang Fujun hesitated. Until Bai Suwei turned her head slightly.

"Yes! It's possible. But if we do that, wouldn't it be...?"

"If he passes, I will provide additional funding as a reward to compensate him."

Bai Su said calmly, "It doesn't matter if he doesn't pass. His level is already high enough to be an intermediate-level apprentice beast tamer. Just give him the basic reward and qualification certificate. I'll make the decision."

"This is just an extra set of test questions."

Fang Fujun really wanted to say that this was not quite in accordance with the rules.

But looking at Bai Su in front of him, he really didn't dare to say it.

Willfulness is one of the defining characteristics of Bai Su, and it was also the first impression many people had of her when she was still very active.

As for second impressions... perhaps it's a case of protecting one's own?

So he gritted his teeth.

"Okay, I'll go right now!"

Bai Su nodded slightly, then looked at Lin Wu in the picture with a smile.

Well then... now, let me see how you perform?
