"To be frank, over the years, I've traveled far and wide, visiting many countries beyond Shuiyun Country, and even once went to the Phoenix Flame Empire."

In a quiet room, Yang Zhen took a sip of tea and looked at Lin Su in front of him. "Overcoming the ninth floor of the Beast Tower is quite rare in vassal states, yet in the empire, there are a few who achieve it yearly."

"But seeing all the contracted beasts possess the strength to conquer the ninth floor of the Beast Tower is something I've never encountered before."

Although the young man's strength wasn't on par with his own, Yang Zhen observed Lin Su with a touch of admiration. "I won't beat around the bush—might young Ji Heng be interested in using Shuiyun Country's transmission gate to enter the Genius Battlefield?"

"If so, this is what Shuiyun Country can offer." He retrieved a list from his Space Ring and handed it to Lin Su. "Take a look."

Lin Su took the list, and after examining it carefully, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

The most valuable option would allow Lin Su to select any level 8 resource from the treasury of the Beast Masters' Guild.

Besides this, there was a series of other resources and opportunities to enter various secret realms.

There were still more than two years left until the opening of the Genius Battlefield.

Thus, the items on the list provided by Yang Zhen would be delivered to Lin Su gradually over time, not all at once.

Lin Su understood this point as well.

Given these things, if he turned around and ran away, wouldn't Shuiyun Country suffer a great loss?

He wasn't a native of Shuiyun Country, and if he didn't have three contracted beasts pass the ninth floor of the Beast Tower, they probably wouldn't offer so much.

"Let's leave it at that." Lin Su calmly placed the list down. "I've felt the sincerity of Shuiyun Country's Beast Masters' Guild. In that case, I'll stay here for the next two-plus years."

The only contracted beast still missing was Qiuqiu.

Having searched so many places and still unable to find it, running around elsewhere for the next two years might yield no result either.

In that case, it would be better to first find a way to enter the Immortal Phoenix Sect.

The situation of Youyou isn't great either. If it's not careful and reveals its innate talent, it could be selected as a contracted beast by other disciples at any time.

Entering the Immortal Phoenix Sect would allow Lin Su to smoothly form a contract with Youyou and resolve its crisis, while also utilizing the sect's power to help find Qiuqiu, sharpening his skills instead of aimlessly searching elsewhere.

"That's great." Zhang Hengyang, standing aside, smiled brightly.

With Lin Su choosing to stay here, it would be easier for him to foster a good relationship with Lin Su.

"Since young Ji Heng has no objections, we can proceed according to the list." Seeing Lin Su not making outrageous demands, Yang Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief.

The assortment of resources and other items on this list weren't deliberately undervalued; they were carefully considered and provided.

"If there are no further issues, I should quickly return to inform the other members of the main guild about this." Yang Zhen stood up with a smile. "Young Ji Heng, we shall meet again."

"I should leave too." Lin Su also stood up and left the quiet room.

After a round of polite exchanges, he returned to the inn and looked at the three little ones poking their heads out, smiling as he waved the list in his hand. "We don't need to worry about various resources in the short term."

"According to the resources mentioned, from now until the opening of the Genius Battlefield, I can enter a Mystical Level Secret Realm called the Source Secret Realm at any time for training. Although it's limited to the outer area and does not include the Secret Realm Core, the efficiency of meditation practice enhances significantly."

"Additionally, over the next two-plus years, we can sequentially choose to enter five Yellow Level Secret Realms and two Mystical Level Secret Realms' cores within Shuiyun Country."

"The Space Heart and various resources needed for practice will also be gradually handed to me over time." Lin Su glanced at the list. "As for the most valuable self-selected level 8 resource, I can pick it in advance, but it will only be delivered to me when entering the Genius Battlefield's transmission gate."

"For this particular resource, I intend to choose something suitable for Yingying." Lin Su patted Yingying on the head. "Among the three of you, you're the only one who didn't receive a reward in the Beast Tower, so consider it compensation."

Yingying turned to look at Tata and Youyou, and seeing the two little ones showing approval instead of envy, a bright spark of joy appeared in its eyes.

Yay!

This way, I will have level 8 resources too!

Even though I can't get it now, it will be fine to wait a bit longer!

"The Source Secret Realm is located in a valley near Moonstone City." Lin Su stored the list. "After tonight, we will move in, and the next two-plus years will be spent training there."

"The Source Secret Realm is a Mystical Level Secret Realm with eight natural attributes, so we won't need to use the Secret Realm Pearl we have on hand for the time being." Lin Su took out the Secret Realm Pearl obtained previously from the Li Family. "The Secret Realm Pearl can't be taken into the secret realm, but selling it could still get a few good level 7 resources."

In the short term, the three little ones won't need to worry about a lack of resources!

Youyou, who hasn't yet elevated its normal energy value to the maximum, was even more filled with anticipation.

Among the three little ones, only it remained a monarch species. Although it could transcend its rank and battle with Yingying and Tata by using the Little Shattering Rule, it yearned to complete its final evolution and achieve this milestone!

For an ordinary Five-colored Kite to evolve into a Seven-Colored Cloud Crane requires selecting two of the wind, thunder, and ice attributes, preparing the corresponding level 7 resources, and pairing them with one level 6 resource of each of the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth elements.
