"This time the theme is 'Exorcise the Demons and Protect the Path.' You should know what this means."
Upon hearing Lin Lin's words, Ye Bai smiled.
The old site of Celestial Spring City, where a Demon God had once descended, is filled with the scent of blood and easily attracts powerful Exotic Beasts.
Defiant souls in this environment can easily turn into corrupted Undead.
The best way is to have Sunflower Cleaning Company move in and claim it as their territory.
It's said that the Blood Mist in Celestial Spring City has yet to be dispelled.
In other words, the risk of Phoenix Cup is greater than Young Qilin Cup.
Ye Bai felt this task was enormous, and if not done well, other accidents might occur.
Honestly, Ye Bai was somewhat hesitant; this was clearly a huge pitfall.
But he already accepted it. Backing down now would probably mean he couldn't continue his role in the Twenty-Eight Constellations.
"Don't worry, there will be those specifically coordinating with you, and my Paperman Clone can help you oversee the competition."
"I will distribute Paperman Clones so that all participants receive one of my clones. I will monitor their every move and pinpoint everyone's location coordinates."
"If danger arises, I'll detect it at the first moment, ensuring no trouble for you."
Ye Bai was very satisfied with this assistant, so he planned to keep Lin Lin by his side for now.
"Lin Lin, it's a pity my Pet Beast Contract is full, or else I would have kept you with me."
Ye Bai said with a sigh.
"In truth, it doesn't matter; I am originally an affiliate of the Beichen Celestial Wolf Blade, and my contract with it remains."
Ye Bai secretly communicated with the Artifact Spirit of the Soul Artifact and received the same answer; Lin Lin did not lie.
Lin Lin had once signed a contract with the Beichen Celestial Wolf Blade.
Ever since the Sun Blade was snatched and part of his body torn apart, Lin Lin fell into a deep slumber.
It wasn't until the Sun and Moon Dual Blades combined and Flame Country's fortunes began to rise that Lin Lin awoke from sleep.
Only recently did he fully awaken.
"Let's go prepare in Celestial Sea City first."
"I'll first meet the chairman of the organizing committee to see what level the security measures are at."
"I don't want too many people sneaking in; it would make me seem incompetent."
"The Spirit Saint of the Resurrection Association and the Necromancer of the Evangelical Association both have ideas; everyone has their thoughts, what does it mean?"
"Since they all came, I might as well trap the turtle in the jar; whoever comes, kill one, whoever comes, kill one."
Ye Bai said coldly; he indeed had the capability.
This time, the chairman of the Young Qilin Cup organizing committee switched to a newcomer named Song Fu'an, an elderly man nearing fifty.
He looked exceptionally spirited.
Only Song Fu'an knew Ye Bai's true identity.
So during discussions about Young Qilin Cup's security, Ye Bai was brought in for a meeting.
"This time, the Young Qilin Cup's defense task is extremely tense. Besides the security personnel, we invited a renowned professor, who was also last year's Young Qilin Cup champion and the champion of the World-Class Researcher Conference, this year's judge, Mr. Ye Bai."
Song Fu'an politely introduced everyone.
Looking at the overly young Ye Bai, a trace of disdain flashed in their eyes.
They are all veteran researchers in the field, possessing some skills and pride.
Even though Ye Bai was the former Young Qilin Cup champion and the World-Class Researcher Conference champion, it didn't mean much to them.
They treated Ye Bai as a mascot.
"Let's now discuss the security precautions."
"We invited Sunflower Cleaning Company for security this time."
"Their Sunflower possesses strong defensive capabilities and monitoring abilities."
"It ensures alert signals are emitted the moment any foreign enemy invades."
Ye Bai!!!!!!
Is Sunflower Cleaning Company the one he founded himself?
How has it become a security company?
What has Sofia done?
Ye Bai widened his eyes.
Perhaps it's a company with the same name?
Ye Bai secretly doubted.
"Sunflower Cleaning Company is now one of the top ten mercenary groups in Flame Country."
"Their chairman, Miss Sofia, truly has an eye for talent."
"It's a pity she won't attend the opening ceremony this time; otherwise, I would have a good discussion about the wonderful philosophy of life with Miss Sofia."
A gentleman dressed in a sharp suit said to Ye Bai.
Ye Bai's face showed an embarrassed expression; it was indeed his own company.
"But I feel relying on just one company this time is unreliable; I also invited the Fierce Beast Mercenary Corps for external defense."
"The tier-six peak experts of Fierce Beast Mercenary Corps, like wolves, tigers, leopards, and eagles, are incredibly powerful. With them around, there should be no problem."
"It's a pity the National Pillar is too busy and doesn't have time to attend."
"Not even a single member from the Twenty-Eight Constellations can attend; just how busy are they."
People nearby whispered; they thought Flame Country didn't prioritize Young Qilin Cup, expressing their lament.
"Alright, that's the setup for now."
"Next, we need to discuss how this competition will be held."
"Last year's competition was quite successful, especially when co-hosted with Phoenix Cup."
"It's just that the leaders above felt the risk was too high, so this time they didn't allow another co-host."
"We'll start with a knowledge competition, followed by potion configuration, Pet Beast Cultivation, and ultimately select the suitable champion."
"The process should last for at least a month."
"Does anyone have any good suggestions to ensure minimal problems during this month?"
Song Fu'an looked at everyone.
However, everyone seemed incapable of guaranteeing that, so when Song Fu'an's gaze swept over, many lowered their heads.
"Ye Bai, as last year's champion, do you have any thoughts?"
"I think that each competition should not remain unchanged; we need some changes."
Song Fu'an has hosted many Young Qilin Cups; truthfully, he's thought of everything possible.
"I think the most important thing for researchers is research and observation."
"We can cancel the first round of knowledge competitions and change them to Exotic Beast observation."
"We can capture three or four Exotic Beasts, put them in an iron cage, and let contestants observe their attributes, personalities, and weaknesses. This way, researchers won't be known as bookworms."
"This tests open and divergent thinking; what do you think about this?"
Ye Bai smiled and asked everyone.
"This idea is good, but how do we ensure the Exotic Beasts don't break out of the cage or pose a threat to humans?"
Someone immediately questioned nearby.
"We can plant Sunflower Fairy clones under these Pet Beasts."
"Sunflower Fairy masters skills such as burn, paralysis, frostbite, and stun, useful for treatment and defense."
"As long as the Sunflower Fairy is planted nearby, no Exotic Beast would dare escape."
"Because they know escaping would result in various negative statuses."
Ye Bai proposed.
"Ye Bai, you have a good idea, but which Exotic Beasts should we use?"
"Ordinary Exotic Beasts might be easily guessed by contestants, thus losing their trial significance."
Song Fu'an frowned; Ye Bai's suggestion was good, but where would the Exotic Beasts come from?
Their prepared Exotic Beasts were specifically for contestants.
If used prematurely, the competition loses its meaning.
"Leave that to me."
"After all, I'm a part of the judging panel too, let me contribute to everyone."
Ye Bai planned to inspect all the Exotic Beasts to prevent uninvited guests from sneaking in.
However, an unexpected visitor surprised Ye Bai greatly.
