NOVEL NEXT Chapter 408: Champion!
"Not all creatures can gain benefits from Zhuangzi's Dream."
Mengdie's wings fluttered gently as she continued to speak:
"Of course, as long as you experience a complete life in Zhuangzi's Dream without losing yourself, your spiritual power will definitely improve significantly. If you want to try it, you can come to find me."
"Then I will come to you after the competition ends."
Chen Mo replied.
He planned to let his other Spiritual Beasts, as well as himself, give it a try.
Compared to his Spiritual Beasts, the growth rate of his spiritual power was somewhat lagging behind, so he couldn't let this opportunity slip away.
"The competition has ended. Congratulations, the youngest champion of the World Championship."
Mengdie's tone was light and cheerful as she smiled and said.
Even after Zhuangzi's Dream was broken, there was no trace of disappointment on her face.
On the contrary, she was very happy.
She saw hope in Chen Mo.
In her view, Chen Mo was very likely to help the Spirit Realm survive the impending catastrophe, the so-called person destined to face the calamity.
"I concede."
Immediately, Mengdie slowly said to the referee.
"And for all the upcoming matches, we concede as well."
Previously, there had been an agreement with Chen Mo that if his Spiritual Beasts could break her Zhuangzi's Dream, then this competition would be directly counted as a win for Chen Mo.
As soon as the words fell, the entire venue fell silent.
Everyone couldn't understand why Mengdie would suddenly concede.
This wasn't a friendly match, but a stage for determining the strongest Spirit Master on Blue Star!
It also meant the allocation of Mythical Resources!
"That was already my strongest move, and since Chen Mo's Spiritual Beast has already broken it, its strength is naturally superior to mine, so there is no point in continuing the match."
Mengdie explained, in a good mood.
As the words fell, an overwhelming cheer erupted around the arena.
This meant that the champion of this year's World Championship had been born!
"Let's congratulate Chen Mo, the youngest champion in the history of the World Championship meow!"
Neon Cat said loudly.
It couldn't help but feel sentimental.
During the Daoist School Competition a year ago, it had first met Chen Mo, and at that time Xiao Jiu's strength was merely Transcendent.
Even then it felt that this young man had "a promising future."
Little did it expect that the "future" would be so short.
In merely a year, Chen Mo had become one of the top Spirit Masters on Blue Star.
The once Little White Fox also became the renowned Miracle White Fox, unmatched even by Totem Spirits!
After the competition, there were still many segments like the champion's victory speech, the closing ceremony, group photos, and so on.
As for the award ceremony, it was in the afternoon.
After going through these procedures, it was already noon.
On the way back, Xiao Jiu and the other beasts were still very excited, holding onto a group photo of winning the World Championship.
It was a "family photo" taken by the event staff after the competition ended.
Chen Mo and all his Spiritual Beasts were in the photo.
In the photo, Chen Mo wore a red baseball cap, holding the Little White Fox, smiling brilliantly.
Tuantuan lay on his head, trying hard to open its eyes, seemingly searching for the camera.
Xiao Jiu transformed into its original Blazing Flame Fox form, lazily lying in Chen Mo's arms, with the End Cat draped around Chen Mo's shoulders like a scarf.
The Little Blue Bird wore black sunglasses, looking very cool and arrogant.
The Enchanting Demon Queen stood next to Chen Mo, with a slight smile on her lips. The Corpse Silver Horse stood silently behind him, the silver flames in its eye sockets burning fiercely, like a warhorse from hell.
As for Xinghai, it naturally became the grandest backdrop behind them.
Besides the one in Chen Mo's hand, this group photo would also be stored in the Hall of Honor of the World Championship, symbolizing a legend.
After Chen Mo and Chen Meng had a simple lunch, they prepared to seek out Mengdie Senior.
Before leaving, Mengdie left Chen Mo with a deep purple dream butterfly crystal pendant.
As long as he infused it with spiritual power, he could communicate directly with Mengdie.
Since it used a telepathy-like ability, it could be used to communicate over any distance, even across worlds.
"Have you really thought it through? Entering the Dream World carries certain risks."
After understanding Chen Mo's intentions, Mengdie reminded him again.
"Senior, I want to try."
Chen Mo replied.
Now that Xiao Jiu mastered the Miracle Law, as long as they were blessed by the Wish Technique before entering the Dream World, there shouldn't be any major issues.
"Then come on! I'm at Director Feng's office."
"Alright."
Putting away the Mengdie pendant, Chen Mo, calling Sister Meng, went to Feng Zheng's office in the organizing committee.
When they entered the office, it seemed that Mengdie and Feng Zheng were discussing some troublesome matters, with Feng Zheng looking grave, his eyebrows tightly furrowed into a "川" character.
However, upon seeing Chen Mo, the somewhat elderly director still smiled and said:
"Our champion is here."
As he spoke, he asked his Earth Golem Master to brew them a cup of tea.
"What were you discussing?"
Chen Mo asked curiously.
"The situation in the Spirit Realm is dire; the apocalyptic calamity sweeping across the Spirit Realm has already begun."
Director Feng sighed.
"Have the Evil Gods started descending?"
Chen Mo asked urgently.
"Currently, the Evil Gods' true forms cannot fully descend to the Spirit Realm, but their believers have already started paving the way for their arrival. These Evil God believers hold ceremonies across the Spirit Realm to please their deities. Although the Spirit Realm's related forces have suppressed them, these Evil God believers are like wildfire, impossible to fully extinguish."
Mengdie sighed slightly:
"Even our people handling these Evil God-related incidents risk being tainted."
The current situation in the Spirit Realm was unbelievably bleak.
The key issue was the rapid growth of these Evil God believers, often only needing to gather negative emotions. Their Evil Beasts could, in a few months, reach levels that other Spiritual Beasts would need years or even decades to achieve through hard work!
According to the current trend, the descent of the Evil Gods is inevitable. Even if these Evil God believers are dealt with in time each time, it only delays their descent.
"If there's anything I can do to help, Senior, please let me know."
Chen Mo said.
Facing Evil Gods, it is an incumbent duty.
After all, with greater power comes greater responsibility!
Now that Xiao Jiu has dual-attribute Totem upgrades, with combat power comparable to high-level Totem, and the other Spiritual Beasts also generally have Totem-level combat power, unless the true form descends, even typical projections or avatars of Evil Gods are not his match.
Moreover, it would be a good opportunity to strengthen his Undead Army.
"We can manage for now."
Mengdie said slowly:
"What you need most now is to enhance your own strength. Let's put aside these issues, I'll help you with training using the Dream World."
"Thank you, Senior."
Chen Mo nodded.
"Who wants to go first?"
Mengdie calmly asked.
"Senior, how many people can go at one time?"
Chen Mo asked.
"There is no limit to the number of dreamers within the realm of Zhuangzi's Dream."
"Then let's go together!"
"Jiu Bao, Wish Technique!"
Chen Mo prepared for his Spiritual Beasts to cheat.
"Woo~" (I hope everyone gains something in the Dream World!)
The Miracle White Fox gently nodded, golden light flickered, flowing towards Chen Mo, Chen Meng, and the other Spiritual Beasts.
Now that Xiao Jiu has upgraded to Totem, coupled with a masterful level of Wish Technique and [Miracle White Fox]'s entry bonus, it can greatly influence the Dream World released by Mengdie!
With the blessing of the Wish Technique, the Dream World, which is perilous to other creatures, is, in Chen Mo's eyes, an excellent training space!
