Chapter 801: Chapter 51: Preliminary Selection

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the massive and imposing giant dragon, after a dive, did not make any hostile actions towards Yue Minzhi. Instead, it prostrated itself at Yue Minzhi’s feet in a posture of submission.

"Not bad, not bad, young man, what’s your name? Even the Spiritual Beast has a new appreciation for you. It seems the leader of the Dragon Team has been chosen," City Lord Changsun’s wrinkled face was almost swallowed by his smile. The young Dark Practitioners chosen this time all held great promise, with even the Four Great Holy Beasts willing to bow down. Instantly, the chances of retrieving the Heavenly Witch Pill seemed much higher.

Hu Li could not help but let out a sigh. Unfortunately, this exceptionally skilled and handsome man not only did not become part of her team, he even became her competitor. If they were to encounter each other in the Divine Ruins, it might even be a fight to the death.

Long Rui immediately turned her worry into joy, her pretty face beaming with pride, more so than if she herself had been chosen by the Sun Dragon.

After Yue Minzhi, it was the turn of the other Imperial Dragon Knights. Perhaps due to recognition by the Sub-Asian Dragon, these Dragon Knights, without exception, were favored by the Sun Dragon and chosen to join the Dragon Team.

After the Imperial Dragon Knights, it was the turn of those from the Divine Court, where Zong Shaoqing was.

Zong Shaoqing, clad in a silver Battle Armor and with striking purple eyes, walked out from the crowd to a chorus of admiration.

When Hu Li saw Zong Shaoqing, she felt a shiver down her soul. She immediately looked towards Ying Wuwang, who was still in line. The latter cast a cold glance at Zong Shaoqing, confirming that there was no trace of Demon Clan Evil Energy on him, and shook his head.

Zong Shaoqing walked calmly past the Four Great Holy Beasts, which surprisingly showed no reaction when he approached the Spiritual Holy Beasts, which caught everyone off guard.

This was clearly beyond everyone’s expectations.

Zong Shaoqing’s expression showed no change. His gaze swept across the statues of the four Holy Beasts before finally settling on the Moon Tiger.

Yue Jinghua noticed a flash of purple light seemed to pass through his light purple eyes.

In almost a split second, it was as if everyone heard a mountain tiger’s roar, reverberating and causing their eardrums to buzz.

The Spiritual Sun Tiger statue leapt into the air, drawing a beautiful arc before crouching in front of Zong Shaoqing.

The Moon Tiger was just like a docile house cat, wagging its tail and continuously wagging it towards Zong Shaoqing.

"Good, very good, the leader of the Tiger Team has also been chosen. Now only Chen Wu is left," City Lord Changsun looked at the remaining queue of fewer than fifty people with satisfaction. If the Four Great Holy Beasts did not select a suitable leader, the final selection would be done by him.

Strangely, others may not have noticed, but as Zong Shaoqing tamed the Moon Tiger, Yue Jinghua seemed to detect a wave, a kind of pressure. It seemed the Moon Tiger was influenced by that pressure to submit.

Out of over three hundred people, not everyone was so lucky. Some did not garner the favor of any of the Four Great Holy Beasts and stood awkwardly to the side.

Dark Practitioners who could not join the Four Great Holy Beast teams indirectly demonstrated their lack of strength, as the Four Great Holy Beasts did not favor them.

Such people either chose to withdraw voluntarily or were assigned as needed by City Lord Changsun over the next six months to the Four Great Teams.

"Jinghua, I wonder which Holy Beast will choose us. I’m worried that if I’m like them, it’ll be awful," Shalman looked at the increasingly shorter line ahead with worry. It would soon be their turn.

"Don’t worry, you’re so beautiful, at worst, you’ll be picked by the Star Sparrow," Yue Jinghua glanced at the queue lining up in front of the Star Sparrow. Led by Hu Li, it seemed no coincidence that the Sparrow Team was made up entirely of handsome men and beautiful women.

"If I have to be on the same team and take her orders, I’d rather not participate," Shalman shook her head like a rattle when she heard this. "You know, not to make you laugh at me for lacking ambition, but the Divine Ruins are so dangerous. Even if we just hang around Four Symbols City for six months, that’s not bad. I’ve seen many rare Dark Beast Eggs for sale in Four Symbols City. Spending six months to hatch one and take it back to Canglong Continent would be enough for me."

"You, others are obsessed with the Holy Beast Divine Power, while you only think about Dark Beast Eggs that can’t be eaten or used." Yue Jinghua shook her head continuously.

Soon, the members of the July Mercenary Team took their turn.

Feng Buhui was the first, chosen for the Tiger Team.

Next was Qin Dongting, who was selected by the Sparrow Team.

"Oh, what a lecherous sparrow, choosing only the handsome ones," Luo looked enviously at Qin Dongting entering the Sparrow Team, which was filled with beautiful women.

Hu Li also cast a flirtatious look at Qin Dongting, but unfortunately, Qin Dongting did not show any reaction.

When it was Luo’s turn, he walked while muttering to himself, "Creator God, please let me be chosen by the Sparrow Team. Ladies, here I come."

To Luo’s endless frustration, as he walked past the Star Sparrow statue, the Star Sparrow, far from spreading its wings and soaring, didn’t even flutter an eyelid, clearly showing no interest in his plump physique.

The chubby Luo cursed the Star Sparrow under his breath and begrudgingly walked over to the Holy Beast Chen Wu, where he was quickly recognized.

In Yue Jinghua’s view, it was only natural for Luo to be acknowledged by Chen Wu among the Four Great Holy Beasts.

Chen Wu ranked last among the Four Great Holy Beasts, but its defensive power was the strongest. Luo might not have other skills, but thanks to the Divine Rune, his body’s defensive power was remarkably formidable, making it fitting for him to be chosen by Chen Wu.

After Luo, it was Shalman’s turn. She gave Yue Jinghua a quick glance and, with her encouragement, approached the Four Great Holy Beasts.

She had barely passed the Star Sparrow when the Star Sparrow began singing melodiously, circling above her head.

The treatment was only slightly below that of Hu Li.

"No way," Shalman, though chosen, wasn’t happy. She could only hope that Yue Jinghua would also be selected by the Sparrow Team, so she’d have company and could reluctantly stay on the Sparrow Team.

Next was Qian Luo, who was chosen by the Moon Tiger and joined Zong Shaoqing’s team.

"Finally, it’s my turn," Yue Jinghua sighed with relief. She stepped out of the line, her gaze pausing briefly before the Four Great Holy Beasts.

With only the Martial Arts Team without a leader, it’s uncertain which team she will end up in?
