Chapter 40: Entering the Secret Realm

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A group of policemen had gathered around Li Yi. Everyone was carefully studying the nameplate on the table.

“That’s right, this is it!”

“This is an ID nameplate of the Mountains and Rivers Society. But as to whether or not it’s authentic, it’s hard to say.”

“Better be safe than sorry, though. If it is true, this could be pretty big?”

“I suggest we consult our superiors.”

Everyone nodded. An old policeman picked up the phone and dialed the chief’s number.

“Chief, we have an important situation here!”

“Please explain. My time is precious.”

“A young man came here and said that he captured two members of the Mountains and Rivers Society. He brought a nameplate which is indeed a nameplate from the Mountains and Rivers Society.”

“Immediately put together a team to go investigate. Don’t make any mistakes!”

Having given the order, the director hung up the phone.

But soon, a video call came in.

The old policeman answered. The director’s stern expression flashed onto the screen.

“I want you to keep me on video call as you follow this young man.”

“Yes!”

The old policeman looked at Li Yi and said, “Take us there. Show us the people you captured.”

Li Yi nodded and walked out of the police station.

Three policemen were deployed for this mission. They drove Li Yi in a police car.

With Li Yi’s guidance, the car drove to where Li Yi and Liu Chang had been fighting.

After stepping out of the car, Li Yi took the lead and forged ahead.

“I tied those two people to a tree right there.”

Li Yi took out a flashlight and shone it at the tree.

Sure enough, there were two people tied to the tree trunk, squirming.

As soon as he saw this, the chief’s eyes widened.

After he carefully looked at them, he picked up two internal arrest warrants.

“That’s right, these two people are indeed members of the Mountains and Rivers Society, and they must rank pretty highly in the organization!”

“Well, you weren’t lying. You’ve helped us a lot!”

The director sighed. “I wasn’t expecting a youngster like you to be of much help. What a fine young man you are.”

“By the way, did you get any information out of them when you tied them up?”

Looking at the director on the screen, Li Yi said, “I got them to tell me their plan. They told me all the commotion in the city being carried on by the Society is just a distraction. Their real target is the competition at the Beast Master Academy!”

“Those who participated in the competition are all geniuses from various universities. The Society wants to eliminate them all!”

Hearing this, the director slammed the table angrily. “How audacious! How dare they! They are really asking for it!”

“I’ll send officers to reinforce the First Beast Master Academy right away!”

Li Yi hurriedly shook his head. “I don’t think that will be necessary.”

The chief frowned. “Why not?”

“This years competition is being kept on the down low. For them to obtain detailed information about the competition, they must have someone on the inside working with them. Someone high up, I suspect!”

“If you send officers there, you will definitely stop the plan, but at the same time, you will also lose the opportunity to capture this higher-up mole.”

Hearing that, the director nodded slightly. “You are right. With a hidden danger like this lingering around, something bad will happen sooner or later.”

Li Yi suggested further, “I think we should allow the Society’s plan to go on unhindered for now. There is no way these two are the only ones the Society has sent out.”

“When the rest of the Society goons enter the Ruins, we can coordinate a massive counter offense and take down all the enemies!”

“That’s a good suggestion. In that case, I’ll make a call right now and get our men ready!”

Li Yi nodded slightly. “Alright, if you could do that, that would be great.”

With that, the video call ended.

The few old policemen looked at Li Yi in surprise.

“I had no idea you were so capable, young man.”

“So you’re a Beast Master who was invited to participate in the competition. No wonder you’re so strong.”

“Our director is listening to your advice. You’re so awesome…”

Li Yi didn’t think much of it. He pointed at the two people tied to the tree trunk. “Later, I’ll have to trouble you to bring these two back to the station. I’m going to the Secret Realm.”

“Don’t worry, leave them to us!”

The three old cadres untied the two goons and threw them into the police car.

After saying goodbye to Li Yi, they drove back with the goons.

It was already getting late, so the whole area was pitch-black.

Li Yi had to rely on the dim streetlights to navigate.

There was no one around. Had all the other Beast Masters participating in the competition already reached the end?

Li Yi brought out the Lightning Rat. Man and mouse walked side-by-side down the forest road.

One of the keys to properly training a Monster Pet was getting along with it well.

Hence, in a situation like this, it would be good to bring out the Lightning Rat and walk together with it.

Just then, Li Yi saw a Status floating above the Lightning Rat’s head, [ 10x Cultivation Speed ] .

This Status must have been the result of eating the candy. Li Yi reached out and grabbed the Status entry.

[ You just obtained the Status: 10x Cultivation Speed ]

Li Yi was overjoyed. He didn’t know he could get a Status like this! Did this mean he would be able to make the Lightning Rat have 10x cultivation speed indefinitely?

Li Yi calmed himself down and continued to move forward. Soon, he saw a bright light in the distance.

He had already been walking in the darkness for an unknown amount of time. Logically speaking, he should soon be reaching the entrance of the Ruins.

He kept walking forward and approached the light. On closer inspection, he found that there was an ancient temple standing in front of him.

In front of the building’s vermilion-colored gate, there were two big red lanterns, filling the area with light.

Li Yi slowly approached the temple. He saw two people standing at the door.

One of them looked familiar. When Li Yi got closer, he saw that it was the dean, Wang Zhibin.

Beside him was a young woman dressed in a cheongsam. She appeared to be Wang Zhibin’s secretary.

When Wang Zhibin saw Li Yi, he revealed a smile he hadn’t seen in a long time.

“I’ve been anxiously awaiting you. For a moment there I thought you wouldn’t make it.” Wang Zhibin heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Yi walked over with a smile on his face. “I must be the last one to arrive, right?”

Wang Zhibin nodded slightly. “Indeed. Did you encounter anything on the way? It took you so long.”

“I was set upon by some Ferocious Beasts along the way, which slowed me down” Li Yi said casually.

Wang Zhibin didn’t ask much. He knew that, as of three months ago, Li Yi still didn’t have any Monster Pets. Whatever Monster Pets he had now must be average in strength, hence it was understandable that he would have a hard time fighting his way through the forest.

“Then, let us enter the Secret Realm. I have high hopes for you in this competition.”

The mature beauty standing next to Wang Zhibin also smiled. “I have high hopes for you, too. I hope you can get a good ranking.”

Right now, however, Li Yi wasn’t thinking about the competition at all. The only thing he was thinking about was the plan.

“Alright, let’s enter the Secret Realm…”

Wang Zhibin pushed open the temple gates, and the three of them all went in.
