This Summoner Is Too Powerful

During the training period, Li Pu took the opportunity to help the scarecrow upgrade every time he delivered materials.

Watching the scarecrow grow stronger quickly every day, the Climbing Wall Vine found it a bit strange, but didn't inquire further.

After all, with its experience, it had seen too many bizarre things in this summoner world.

Though the scarecrow's upgrade speed was fast, it wasn't unprecedented, hence there was no surprise.

Under certain conditions, it had seen even faster upgrades.

Even more exaggerated than fast upgrades, the Climbing Wall Vine had encountered as well.

Summoned beasts that could drop a few levels every day for several days in a row, aren't you scared?

Although dropping levels might have no positive effect, at least it's rare and quirky enough.

Since it upgraded every day, the scarecrow, like Bu Bu, had also reached the 0-turn LV30 max level again.

As for Bu Bu, they couldn't find a very satisfactory rebirth plan for now, so Li Pu decided to wait until after the Southwest Star Cup.

As for the scarecrow, today he chose the cheapest and most ordinary 1-turn method.

It was just a plain rebound from scarecrow to scarecrow, with no special bonuses.

The purpose was purely to enhance its strength.

Since it can infinitely 1-turn, it's equivalent to infinite level grinding.

According to Li Pu's personal estimation, the scarecrow at full strength after two 1-turns is roughly equivalent to a regular C-level summoned beast at 0-turn max level, fluctuating around this level without much difference.

Rebirthing one more time could take it to a new level.

So, it successfully completed the rebirth and returned to LV1.

All the strength decreased, but it's certainly higher than its previous LV1.

Another important gain is that its inherent ability, [Water Film], improved again.

[Water Film]: Greatly reduced effect from B→B+ level and below fire attributes.

Li Pu felt he might have accidentally discovered some kind of glitch.

This inherent ability should improve by a small grade with each rebirth.

If this understanding is correct, resisting B+ level would normally be achieved at the third turn.

But now, by accidentally 1-turning three times, it reached that level.

After completing the scarecrow's rebirth, Li Pu didn't idle in the following days.

He hastily collected related items in East Wilderness Ridge, nearly exhausting all the crystal coins in his pocket, and raised the scarecrow back to LV20.

Both of his summoned beasts had now reached an unprecedented peak of power.

Scarecrow: 0 (3) turn LV20, Listening to the Wind

Strength: 273, F

Ability: [Gratitude][Water Film][Forgetfulness]

This level of strength is sure to be well showcased in the Southwest Star Cup.

...

On the day of the competition, heading to the central city on the high-speed train.

Li Pu and his group sat in the pre-booked train compartment, feeling a bit silent.

Because they hadn't expected a teacher to accompany them on this trip.

It turned out the school assigned a mentor to all participating students to help them achieve better results.

The individual track has an average of one teacher per five students while the team track has one teacher per team.

Li Pu's team's mentor was Li Fan.

Li Fan's presence made everyone a bit reserved.

Wu Guinan was afraid, still vividly remembering the punishment from last time.

Seeing this face made his legs want to tremble.

Jiang Guiju was in awe; she was already a fan of Li Fan.

Being in such a small, confined space with him (everyone else was completely ignored) made her so excited that she didn't know what to say.

Chang Shoushang was injured, having fallen just before boarding the train.

He hit his mouth and was busy stopping the bleeding, making it inconvenient to speak.

Wang Nuonuo was shy, not really acquainted with Li Fan and Jiang Guiju.

So, in front of strangers, the timid her just wanted to find a corner to shrink into.

As for Li Fan, in front of so many students, he naturally had to put on a strict face and act cool since he was the teacher.

"Teacher, do you know Central City well?"

Only Li Pu had no reservations.

If not for school, he wouldn't have had the chance to come to the southwest of Huazone, so it was indeed his first visit to Central City.

"You asked the wrong person."

However, Li Fan himself wasn't a local either.

Yet under his glaring eyes, Wu Guinan began to instinctively introduce the place.

Central City, located at the geographical center of several surrounding provinces.

Plus, it's economically developed and livable, often chosen as the designated location for inter-provincial events.

Western City isn't very far from Central City; a direct high-speed train takes about half a day, which is why they only set off that morning.

As for local customs, Central City is almost the same as Western City.

With increasing population mobility, the similarities between areas like Western City and Central City, or even Imperial City and Devil City, are significant, with little noteworthy difference.

But once the conversation started, everyone gradually relaxed.

In such casual chit-chat, the train arrived at the destination.

Exiting the high-speed rail station, several school-arranged buses were already waiting there.

According to the schedule, after all participants sign in today, the individual track begins first tomorrow.

The individual track lasts 5 days, the team track lasts 10 days, and the final cube board track lasts another 10 days.

So, their first stop after getting off the bus was to sign in and register.

"Li Pu, should we go to the market for a stroll after signing in?"

Just as everyone sat down, Fu Erdai, who was in the same car, extended the invitation.

During the competition, a market is set up outside the venue to meet the needs of participants and gather people.

"Sure."

Li Pu was also curious about the market, so he agreed.

"Hey, I heard you're from Central City, right?"

"Shouldn't you treat us to a nice meal later?"

Wu Guinan turned to look at Fu Erdai.

"No problem, there's a nice hotel just next to the venue."

"We'll eat first after settling in, then stroll around."

"All seniors and classmates, please join us for the meal as well."

Fu Erdai skillfully extended the invitation to other teams in the car.

Mostly all the teams in the car agreed, except for one team that seemed a bit aloof.

"We'll skip the meal; our team will find a training ground to practice coordination."

The spokesperson for this team was Yi Lunyou, also a local of Central City.

Such a stance garnered everyone's admiration.

Look at them, so diligent.

They're sure to achieve great results in the competition (?).
