Capital city, are you ready for the greatest youth Daoist competition to be held this decade?

A voice came from the middle of the arena which immediately responded by the cheers of the thousands of spectators in the arena.

Yeah, Welcome to the Karasuno Prefecture Youth Daoist Competition!.

For the first and foremost, let's welcome the representative of our Capital city Governor!

The announcer that was revealed to be a beautiful lady appeared in the arena after some spectacular fog-like effect. The effects displayed were so colorful that Ray felt the technologies in his previous world were nothing compared to this.

If the previous world technologies still trying to center around VR, this game world has the help of the spirit beasts, and just the appearance of a colorful dragon had already made this very exciting.

But this was only the start. After the announcer's words fell, a dark giant shadow suddenly took shape above the stadium, and it covered about one-third of the stadium.

And then... when everyone was still wondering what that giant shadow was, they suddenly saw a figure leaped out from the sky.

.

Shadow Vulture.

Lv: 48 (High general level)

A vulture that mutated to become a giant vulture. Don't underestimate its big body because it is faster than most other avian spirit beasts.

.

Ms. Eliza

Previously owner of the biggest trading company in Maple-leaf city, now one of the central figures in the capital city government. You have met her before in the Vermillion's restaurant dinner appointment.

.

" Whoaaa, what a big spirit beast.

"

" Fuck, is it enemy attack? Do we need to run now?

"

" Stupid, don't you know it is Ms. Eliza's spirit beast. We are really blessed to be able to see her graceful figure.

"

Seeing the figure leap down from the sky, a sudden commotion appeared in the crowd.

Some of them were shocked by the size of the spirit beast, and some others who were more familiar with the Shadow Vulture discussed about its owner, Ms. Eliza.

Yeah, this Ms. Eliza was the one in the Vermillions restaurant before and the one that has taken some interest in Ray, but after three years passed. Ray, didn't really know whether she would still remember about him.

The Figure which turned out to be Ms. Eliza landed on the arena along with the cheers, and following that, she began the opening speech of the competition.

" Good Afternoon Everyone,

Thank you to each and every one of you for being here with us today. We are very pleased to be able to welcome.....

"

A standard opening speech of the government official. However, it seems even in this world, face control was absolute.

If normally a government speech would be boring and there would be only a few people which focusing on them, this time because of Ms. Eliza's beauty, half of the spectator was fully immersed in the speech.

Still, even though Ms. Eliza was a rare beauty, Ray's focus wasn't put on her.

There were already so many 10

/10 beauties next to Ray, and Ms. Eliza alone would not get into Ray's eyes. So, instead of focusing on Ms. Eliza, Ray put more emphasis to the participants which started to enter the arena one by one during the opening speech.

Some of them were familiar figures to Ray, like his harem team, Elsa's team, Emi's ex-fiancee, and even Ethan was there, but this time it was not with Celine, Greta, and Mira.

The entering participants didn't have their spirit beast displayed behind them, so it would be pretty hard to saw their strength just based on their appearance alone. Sometimes appearance could be deceiving, and Ray could not rely on his appraisal to check on the girls greatest competitor.

Therefore, he wouldn't waste time appraising the enemy one by one and chose to summon Schwarz and asked her to find the competitor with the greatest amount of luck amongst them.

" Meow.

"

Ray snapped his finger, and a small cat appeared on his shoulder. For this competition, Schwarz had regained back her level after so much grinding, but she still couldn't break through the limitation of Lv. 50.

" Schwarz, other than these guys, could you please find participants with the greatest amount of luck?

"

Ray pointed at the familiar figure and instructed Schwarz to check for the remaining participant. It was pretty wasteful to check the people he had already known as Ray already had some ideas about their strengths. Thus, this time Ray solely focused on the hidden competitor, which he didn't know about.

Schwarz then took her time to look at the participants carefully, and after a few minutes, she reported back her result at Ray.

" Good job Schwarz, Schwarz is a good girl.

"

" Meow, Schwarz will always be a good girl. But could Ray please summon Schwarz more often? Schwarz really missed Ray so much.

" Schwarz looked at Ray with her big starry eyes.

This request from Schwarz somehow struck Ray, and he felt a bit painful in his heart. Truthfully, he indeed neglected his spirit beast a bit after all of them except Flappy reached lv. 50, and hearing Schwarz said this, a guilty feeling rose in his heart.

" Yeah, I'm sorry for neglecting you guys a bit before. I promise I wouldn't do it anymore, so, do you want to enjoy the competition with me?

" Ray offered Schwarz while patting her head which she immediately agreed.

To her, happiness is when she was with Ray, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

Ray then put Schwarz on his lap and let her enjoy this feeling while he continued to appraise the participants, which Schwarz has told him.

' I'm sorry, Schwarz, but this time, I must check the information of those guys first. Now, let's start with the guys in the black clothes.'

Among all the participants below, the one that took Ray's attention the most was the team that was the representative of the Aurum town, a town in the south of Maple-leaf city.

The participants wear black robes and emit a strange feeling that was somehow familiar to Ray.

DING!!! The appraisal request has been processed. Please check the following information.

' This...'
