Chapter 314: Choice Is More Important than Effort

Xingyue Continent, Yudi City.

As the capital of the Beast Taming Empire, Yudi City is full of strong men, and it can be said that it is the place where the human race's combat power is most concentrated in Xingyue Continent.

Although the Beast Taming Empire is now under siege by the four fierce beast empires, and countless provinces are living in poverty, there is still peace and prosperity in Yudi City, and everything is going well.

Lu Ran walked on the prosperous streets, and heard various shouts in his ears, which made him feel subtle.

"In the 996th year of the Beast Taming Calendar, the Master of the Sect has not been born yet."

"The only identity I can rely on is the lineage of Emperor Yan Sizhen."

This time, the identity arranged by Infinite City for Lu Ran is a talented person who came to Yudi City from the people to fight and fight in response to the Empire's "National Recruitment" call.

In order to fight against the four fierce beast empires, the Empire not only recruited soldiers from the whole country, but also promised that powerful beast masters could be directly granted official titles.

So recently, there are indeed many powerful people hidden in the people who have come to the capital of the Empire to seek development.

Lu Ran estimated that other trial participants should also have similar identities.

However, the mission is to let the trialists capture the best pets under contract, rather than relying on their own strength to get a position, so theoretically, even if the trialists are distributed all over the country, it will not affect this mission.

But Infinite City still brought the trialists to Yudi City, and Infinite City’s intention is self-evident.

Xingyue Continent is too big, and it is not so easy to find the best pets. Let alone 30 days, even if it is 3 years, it is not necessarily easy for a few third-level beastmasters to easily find the best pets.

Therefore, what the trialists need most is "intelligence".

Intelligence on the location and acquisition channels of the best pets.

As for where to get intelligence, the major legendary families in Yudi City or the military are all ways.

This is not only the political center of the Beast Taming Empire, but also the intelligence center of the entire empire.

Therefore, in Lu Ran's view, this should be considered a pre-task.

He quickly analyzed what he should do next, just as he thought just now, quickly hold the thigh of a force... Use their intelligence channels to find high-quality pets.

"Then my intelligence channel is obvious. Through the identity of Yan Ling, I will see if I can contact the royal family..."

"However, the current royal family does not seem to be the lineage of Yan Sizhen..."

The imperial system of the Beast Taming Empire is similar to the abdication system.

This is a tradition that has been passed down since the early days of the empire.

When the Beast Taming Empire was first established, the first emperor once said that the meaning of the existence of the Beast Taming Empire is not to allow a certain tribe or clan to always be the ruler of mankind.

It is to elect sufficiently excellent beastmasters to lead more humans to live better on this continent.

Therefore, the Hunting God did not pass the throne to his descendants in the end, but to Yan Sizhen, who opened up the way of cooking and forging.

The Hunting God believes that Yan Sizhen is far better than his descendants, and in fact, under the leadership of Yan Sizhen, the Beast Taming Empire has become more prosperous.

And in order to follow the will of the first emperor, Yan Sizhen did not consider it after many times.

In the first thousand years of the empire, this way of succession was very stable.

A large part of the reason is that the pets left by the previous generations of emperors serve as the guardian beasts of the country. Under their supervision, even the new emperor dare not mess around.

I have to say that this idea is good.

However, after a long time, this system will not work. A stable system also has a lifespan.

Later, not only did the emperors insist on clearing the obstacles to the succession for their offspring, but there were also emperors who suddenly did absurd things and were successfully overthrown. In short, the empire became more and more chaotic, and eventually evolved into Lu Ran's breakthrough to the first level of the secret realm, with constant civil strife.

However, in the 996th year of the Beast Taming Calendar, Lu Ran remembered from the textbook that such a situation should not have occurred yet.

At this time, even if the emperor gave way to others, their family, because of the protection of the guardian beast, was also a super family that was not inferior to the royal family.

It is called the imperial family.

The imperial family of the current emperor is called the royal family, and the family of the previous emperor is called the imperial family. These two family forces are far superior to the legendary family and are the real core high-level of the empire.

So it was obvious that the family that Lu Ran was going to look for next was the imperial family that was passed down from Yan Sizhen.

Lu Ran had also made up for his historical knowledge.

In this era, although Yan Sizhen's Yan Ling had not been lost, it had already degenerated and was no longer the core inheritance of the Yan Emperor family.

Today, the Yan Emperor family is in charge of the Imperial Dragon Legion and maintains a high status in the empire with the dragon pet foundation left by Yan Sizhen.

So Lu Ran believed that when a beastmaster like himself who inherited a perfect Yan Ling appeared in front of the Yan Emperor family, they would definitely be ecstatic and want to absorb him.

The reason is very simple.

Is Yan Ling no longer the core inheritance of the Yan Emperor family because the Yan Emperor family doesn't like it?

Definitely not, because practicing beast control skills also requires talent.

It's not like the Blue Star beastmaster who can learn it by slapping a card on the forehead.

Yan Ling is a special skill developed by Emperor Yan Sizhen based on his own talent, so his descendants, whose qualifications and bloodline are close to Yan Sizhen, will find it easier to practice Yan Ling.

As the bloodline becomes thinner, it is inevitable that the Flame Spirit will be unable to continue its powerful inheritance.

At this time, if Lu Ran, a guy with "bloodline regression" and mastery of the perfect flame spirit, appears, if the Yandi clan wants to make the family more glorious, breeding Lu Ran as a "stallion" is the fastest and easiest way.

In this way, the next generation of the Flame Clan will give birth to many babies who can master the perfect Flame Spirit.

So if you pass by Lu Ran, it will definitely be delicious.

If you are lucky, with the help of a powerful force like the Imperial Clan, it will be easy to contract a new overlord's favorite as a dowry.

As for a better pet beast, you may have to find another way.

In short, choosing a good intelligence channel is definitely faster than foolishly going to the wild to find powerful pets.

"Next, all I have to do is go to the Yandi clan's family headquarters." Lu Ran had a clear goal.

But what was a pity for Lu Ran was that after walking for a long time, he didn't find any other testers.

It seemed that the trialists were scattered quite far away.

I don’t know exactly how many testers there are and what their opponent’s level is.

With only two promotion places, Lu Ran must ensure that the contracted beasts are at least high-level overlords. Only in this way will he not fall over.

Even if he contracts a low-level overlord, Lu Ran is afraid of overturning and failing to advance. In that case, a month will be wasted, and he can't afford it.

…

Yandi family.

As one of the five major imperial clans in the Beast Controlling Empire, the Yandi family plays a decisive role in the Beast Controlling Empire.

Lu Ran searched for a long time and finally came to the Yan family's mansion. The mansion was made of red bricks and was magnificent. It was bigger than a town. There were more than a dozen gates in all directions. Lu Ran didn't know which gate to visit. Okay, I just found one at random.

At the entrance of the mansion, two young men wearing red flame-patterned war robes were holding long spears and guarding both sides of the door. Before Lu Ran could come to visit, a young man frowned, walked forward, looked at Lu Ran and said: " who are you."

"Brother." Lu Ran saw the guard and said kindly, "Brother, I'm here to see my relatives."

Young guard:?

"Relatives?" The young guard subconsciously thought that Lu Ran was a relative of a housekeeper or servant in the house, and expelled him: "Leave quickly... go find your relatives..."

He was just about to say, if you want to find relatives, go to another gate to register. Suddenly, in the courtyard, the gate opened, and two women in gorgeous clothes walked out side by side, talking and laughing.

The two of them saw something unusual outside the door. One of them, a pretty-looking woman with tied hair, was startled, looked at the guard who was communicating with Lu Ran, and said, "What's wrong?"

"Go back to Third Miss. This man is here to see his relatives. He found the wrong door. I'm showing him the way."

The woman with red hair nodded slightly. She looked at Lu Ran, who was about the same age as herself, and asked curiously: "What kind of relative are you looking for? What position does this person hold in Yandi Mansion?"

Third lady?

Lu Ran looked at the girl and the other woman in luxurious clothes next to her. He felt that he had found the right door. He was meeting the big shot directly. This was no more efficient than finding the right place and registering slowly.

Lu Ran said: "I don't know. When my master passed away, he told me to come to Emperor Yan's Mansion in Yudi City. All my relatives are here."

"What do you mean?" The red-haired girl frowned. The next moment, Lu Ran continued: "My master said that I am a descendant of Emperor Yansi Zhen who lives among the people. He asked me to come and show this. Prove my identity."

As he spoke, Lu Ran stretched out his palm, and the next moment, a lifelike little fire-breathing dragon made entirely of flames, like a mini flame dragon, looked up to the sky on Lu Ran's palm, spitting flames.

Although the fire dragon is small, its power is almost substantial, making the surrounding space blurry.

Seeing the fire dragon, the girl with red hair changed her expression, and the woman in white attire next to her was even more surprised and said:

"Fire spirit? And it is a fire spirit that successfully absorbs strange fire and transforms it into a special flame???"

"How is this possible?" Seeing the lost flame dragon, the girl with red hair said in disbelief: "It's been so long, how can someone still master this level of flame spirit."

She quickly raised her head, looked at Lu Ran with ruby ​​eyes and said, "What did you say just now? Did you say that your master said that you are a descendant of Emperor Yan Sizhen living among the people?"

"Right..." Lu Ran looked like I didn't know much about it, and said, "The old man said that if I have nowhere to go, I can come here."

"Huh..." The red-haired girl was shocked by the explosive news in front of her. She felt lucky that she asked more questions. As for the two guards next to her, their mouths were already wide open, and their brains were a little difficult to react.

"Sister Gong..." The girl with tied hair looked at the woman in white attire. The woman in attire smiled slightly and said, "You deal with the housework first, then I'll go back first."

"Yeah." The girl with tied hair nodded, her eyes clear and bright, feeling that she had made a great contribution this time.
