Chapter 279

While Su Hao was asleep, the radar continued to operate normally. The radar’s vigilance was entrusted to Little Light, and if any abnormal situation occurred, Little Light would activate the wake-up program to rouse Su Hao from his slumber.

In the past, in the bustling urban areas without Yashan guarding nearby, Su Hao didn’t dare to sleep too soundly. With the constant flow of people around, Little Light might not be able to distinguish what constituted an abnormal situation.

However, in this sparsely populated suburb, Su Hao could confidently fall asleep. As soon as someone approached the villa area, Little Light would alert Su Hao promptly.

This nap allowed Su Hao to sleep until noon the next day, satisfying his need for rest.

After waking up, Su Hao first entered the pinball space to organize recent events. He then summoned the three “Mimic Humans” summoned beasts to observe their current status.

The three summoned beasts were spirited, indicating they had been doing well during this period. They had also passed the second stage of evolution and were ready to evolve into second-stage “Transformers.”

“These three summoned beasts have a high probability of giving birth to at least one ‘Primordial Sovereign!'”

Without abundant data on summoned beasts in this world, selecting suitable ones for evolution to the sixth-level exotic beast was quite challenging. A failure in the middle of the process would require starting over.

After recording the genetic information of the three summoned beasts, Su Hao sent them back and entered the pinball space to design the genetic makeup of second-stage “Transformers” and started cultivating genetic modification fluid within his body.

After issuing the instructions, Su Hao returned to the pinball space to continue studying various technologies provided by Chen Qingsheng. Biological implantation technology and biological enhancement technology were quite different from Su Hao’s path of bloodline enhancement, offering valuable insights.

Since these technologies used different professional terms, Su Hao took the initiative to search for the theoretical knowledge of these technologies for effective learning. Completing this learning task would take more than just a few days.

Su Hao estimated that it would take several years to master all these technologies, even with his status as a genius “Prophet” before acquiring the management technology.

The next day, Su Hao summoned the three “Mimic Humans” summoned beasts again and injected the cultivated genetic modification fluid into their bodies to initiate the genetic modification process.

After nearly five hours, all three summoned beasts evolved into second-stage “Transformers.”

After observing them, Su Hao recorded the genetic information and sent the three summoned beasts back. He anticipated another evolution in about a month.

Su Hao then immersed himself in learning once again.

Unexpectedly, for the next five days, no one came to bother him.

Whether it was due to fear of Su Hao, an extraordinary advanced summoner, or a reluctance to invest more in the deceased, or waiting for other opportunities, remained unknown.

The night before the finals.

On top of a tall building in the southern part of the city, ten people gathered around a round table, holding a small meeting.

The middle-aged man who presented the PowerPoint before was Chen Chufeng, elected as the executive manager by the ten major families. Despite his unremarkable appearance, his vision was high, and his strategic thinking was clear. Over the years, he had managed the management institute methodically, gradually improving it, earning the respect of everyone.

Apart from representatives from the major families, there was also a young man present, Hua Shaosun, the summoner competing with Su Hao for the All-Star Championship.

Obviously, the discussion was related to tomorrow’s summoner finals.

At this point, they were no longer talking about winning or losing but rather how to approach the competition.

Chen Chufeng said, “How to play in tomorrow’s match is a question. However, as long as we clarify our purpose first, the strategy becomes flexible.”

He unfolded a PowerPoint, saying, “Our purpose is simple—to test the true potential of Bai Jingzhong’s ten summoned beasts and obtain corresponding data. Winning or losing is secondary.”

When Chen Chufeng reached this point, Hua Shaosun’s expression visibly soured, indicating his dissatisfaction with Chen Chufeng’s statement.

Chen Chufeng, seemingly aware of Hua Shaosun’s expression, smiled without caring and continued, “Of course, winning the championship represents the ultimate glory. It depends on our Hua Shaosun to strive for it on behalf of our collective effort.”

Chen Chufeng shifted the topic, “Since we want to test, we need to equip Hua Shaosun with powerful summoned beasts, presenting overwhelming pressure to Bai Jingzhong and forcing him to fully showcase his summoned beasts. However, from the previous matches, everyone can see that the strength of ordinary S-class summoned beasts is not enough to pressure Bai Jingzhong’s summoned beasts. To provide sufficient pressure, it’s not easy! So…”

At this point, Chen Chufeng paused, attracting everyone’s attention before saying, “Therefore, I propose directly equipping Hua Shaosun with at least five summoned beasts of S-class or above, super summoned beasts!”

As his words fell, everyone froze, exchanging glances with astonishment.

On the contrary, Hua Shaosun first froze, then his face turned red, filled with excitement.

Super summoned beasts!

Having just one super summoned beast would elevate him from an advanced summoner to a world-class summoner.

His name would resound throughout the world, making him a truly prominent figure.

How many world-class summoners are there in the world?

Less than a hundred are officially recognized! And with just one super summoned beast, he would join the ranks of these few dozen individuals!

Not to mention Chen Chufeng’s proposal to equip him with five!

Any trace of dissatisfaction with Chen Chufeng disappeared instantly, replaced by a heart full of gratitude.

After Chen Chufeng and the others digested the information, he continued, “However, these summoned beasts need to be recovered after the battle. Of course, if Hua Shaosun can win, it will be a merit, and he can keep one. Adding the championship reward of a super summoned beast, he will have two summoned beasts.”

The champion of the Summoner All-Star Championship receives a super summoned beast—Titan Behemoth, which is considered a relatively mediocre super summoned beast.

But for most advanced summoners, it is an irresistible temptation because owning a super summoned beast means advancing to the esteemed status of a world-class summoner!

After clarifying the pros and cons, Chen Chufeng said again, “As long as our purpose is clear, there are many methods! Let’s proceed with the vote!”

Six votes in favor, four against. The proposal passed! Hua Shaosun successfully gained five super summoned beasts.

For him, victory was assured tomorrow, and then he would advance to become a world-class summoner, a predetermined outcome in his life: “Bai Jingzhong! Hehehe!”

Early the next morning, the Sheshen Arena was packed with people.

Various cameras hung in mid-air, capturing any spectacular moments on the field. Three hot air balloons floated in the air, and two helicopters hovered above the venue.

The live broadcast of this event was happening worldwide through numerous cameras and a large number of broadcasters.

This final battle marked the last celebration of the summer and the culmination of this edition of the World Summoner All-Star Championship.

The fight between dragons and tigers, the champion’s laurels will fall into whose hands, would be revealed today.

Su Hao, dressed in a simple shirt with his hands in his pockets, coolly entered the venue. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, he walked slowly towards the summoner platform, waving his hand to summon his ten summoned beasts, arranged in front of him.

“Ohh!” The audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers once again.

On the opposite side, Hua Shaosun, wearing a black short-sleeved long coat, also walked up to the summoner platform with a cold demeanor.

With a wave of his hand, twenty-five summoned beasts emerged one after another, filling the space in front of the summoner platform.

Then Su Hao unexpectedly saw Hua Shaosun on the opposite side take out a special monocular and put it on.

“Cheating! Thermal imager!”

With such high-tech devices on the opponent’s side, the effectiveness of his “Speed Demon” invisibility was compromised to some extent.

Apparently, the referee did not consider it cheating but rather a part of strength and ignored it.

After Hua Shaosun summoned his summoned beasts, Su Hao’s attention was drawn to five of them.

These were summoned beasts he saw for the first time.

Even after checking the information he had read before, there was no record.

As Hua Shaosun’s twenty-five summoned beasts walked out, the atmosphere in the arena reached its historical peak.

Su Hao murmured, “Is this a super summoned beast? The momentum is indeed extraordinary!”

    Chapter 279

    Even while Su Hao slept, his Radar continued operating without interruption.

    Its vigilance had long since been entrusted to Little Light. Whenever an abnormal situation arose, Little Light would immediately activate the wake-up protocol and rouse Su Hao from his sleep.

    Back when he still lived in crowded urban districts and Yashan wasn't nearby to stand guard, Su Hao never dared sleep too deeply.

    There were simply too many people moving about.

    Even Little Light couldn't always determine what counted as an actual threat.

    But things were different here.

    This villa stood in the quiet southern suburbs, with very few people passing by.

    The moment anyone entered the surrounding area, Little Light would detect them immediately.

    Because of that, Su Hao slept soundly.

    He slept all the way until noon the following day.

    Only then did he finally wake up, thoroughly refreshed.


    ---

    After getting up, Su Hao first entered the Marble Space and organized everything that had happened over the past several days.

    Once that was finished, he summoned the three Mimic Humans to check on their condition.

    All three summoned beasts were energetic and healthy.

    It was obvious they had adapted well during this period.

    More importantly...

    They had all successfully completed their second evolutionary stage.

    They were now ready to advance into the second-stage Transformer.

    "At least one of these three should have a very high chance of evolving into a Genesis Sovereign."

    Without extensive data on the summoned beasts of this world, selecting suitable evolutionary pathways toward a sixth-rank exotic beast was extremely difficult.

    If even one stage failed midway...

    The entire process had to begin again from scratch.

    After recording the latest genetic information from all three summoned beasts, Su Hao returned them to the Secondary Star.

    He immediately entered the Marble Space once more and began designing the genetic structure of the second-stage Transformer.

    At the same time, his body started cultivating the required genetic modification serum.


    ---

    Once the cultivation process had begun, Su Hao returned to studying the technologies Chen Qingsheng had recently provided.

    Among them, biological implantation technology and biological enhancement technology interested him the most.

    These technologies were completely different from the bloodline evolution system he had developed himself.

    Instead of modifying bloodlines...

    This world's researchers preferred directly altering biological structures.

    Although the approaches differed, they still provided Su Hao with considerable inspiration.

    Unfortunately...

    The technical terminology used throughout the documents was entirely unfamiliar.

    To properly understand them, he first had to study the underlying theoretical system.

    Only then could he fully grasp the actual technologies.

    Judging by the workload...

    Even with the learning ability of a former Prophet, mastering everything before obtaining the Management Bureau's core technologies would still require several years.


    ---

    The following day, Su Hao summoned the three Mimic Humans once again.

    He injected each of them with the newly cultivated genetic modification serum.

    The transformation process officially began.

    Nearly five hours later...

    All three successfully evolved into second-stage Transformers.

    After confirming there were no abnormalities, Su Hao recorded their latest genetic data before sending them back to the Secondary Star once again.

    Based on his estimates...

    Their next evolution should be possible roughly one month later.

    Having finished everything, Su Hao once again immersed himself completely in study.


    ---

    To his surprise...

    The next five days passed peacefully.

    No one came looking for him.

    Whether people feared offending the astonishingly powerful young Advanced Summoner...

    Or simply considered it pointless to continue investing resources against someone who refused to die...

    Or perhaps they were merely waiting for another opportunity...

    Su Hao neither knew nor cared.


    ---

    The evening before the championship match...

    A meeting quietly took place on the rooftop of a skyscraper in southern Shengshi City.

    Ten people sat around a circular conference table.

    Among them was Chen Chufeng, the same middle-aged man who had previously presented the PowerPoint.

    Although he looked completely ordinary, he possessed exceptional strategic vision and organizational ability.

    Over the years, he had managed the Management Bureau steadily, earning the trust of the Ten Great Families.

    Besides representatives from each family...

    Another person attended today's meeting.

    Hua Shaosun.

    Tomorrow's opponent.


    ---

    The meeting revolved entirely around the upcoming championship match.

    Chen Chufeng stood before the projector.

    "Our discussion today isn't really about victory or defeat."

    "It's about our objective."

    He changed the slide.

    "Our goal is very simple."

    "Force Bai Jingzhong to reveal the true limits of all ten of his summoned beasts."

    "Winning the championship..."

    "Is only secondary."

    The moment those words were spoken...

    Hua Shaosun's expression visibly darkened.

    Naturally...

    No competitor wanted to hear that victory itself wasn't considered important.

    Chen Chufeng noticed his reaction.

    He smiled calmly.

    "Hua Shaosun."

    "If you can defeat Bai Jingzhong..."

    "You'll naturally become champion."

    "That honor will belong entirely to you."

    Only then did Hua Shaosun's expression soften slightly.

    Chen Chufeng continued.

    "If we wish to force Bai Jingzhong to expose every trump card he possesses..."

    "Ordinary S-rank summoned beasts won't be enough."

    "Everyone has already witnessed that."

    "They simply cannot pressure him."

    He paused deliberately before revealing his proposal.

    "My suggestion..."

    "Is to temporarily assign Hua Shaosun no fewer than five Super Summoned Beasts."

    Silence instantly filled the room.

    Everyone stared at him.

    Even Hua Shaosun froze.

    Then...

    His breathing became rapid.

    Super Summoned Beasts.

    Possessing even one was enough to elevate an Advanced Summoner into the ranks of the world's elite.

    Officially recognized World-Class Summoners numbered fewer than one hundred across the entire world.

    Yet now...

    Chen Chufeng proposed lending him five.

    Any trace of dissatisfaction Hua Shaosun had toward Chen Chufeng vanished immediately.

    Only gratitude remained.

    Chen Chufeng calmly continued,

    "Naturally..."

    "Those summoned beasts must be returned after the competition."

    "However..."

    "If Hua Shaosun wins..."

    "He may permanently keep one of them."

    "In addition..."

    "The champion's reward is also a Super Summoned Beast."

    "That means..."

    "He'll leave the tournament owning two."

    The championship prize had always been the Titan Behemoth.

    Although it ranked among the weaker Super Summoned Beasts...

    For ordinary Advanced Summoners...

    It remained an irresistible treasure.

    After laying out every advantage and disadvantage, Chen Chufeng spoke once more.

    "Our objective has already been established."

    "Now..."

    "Let's vote."

    Six votes supported the proposal.

    Four opposed it.

    The motion passed.

    Hua Shaosun would temporarily command five Super Summoned Beasts during tomorrow's championship.

    At that moment...

    Confidence overflowed from him.

    Tomorrow...

    Victory already belonged to him.

    After tomorrow...

    He would officially become a World-Class Summoner.

    He slowly smiled.

    "Bai Jingzhong..."

    "Heh..."


    ---

    Early the following morning...

    The Shengshi Arena was packed beyond capacity.

    Countless cameras floated above the battlefield.

    Three hot-air balloons hovered high overhead.

    Two helicopters circled continuously above the stadium.

    Every corner of the world was watching this match live.

    It marked not only the final battle of this year's World Summoner All-Star Championship...

    But also the grand finale of the entire summer.

    Today...

    The champion would finally be decided.


    ---

    Su Hao walked calmly into the arena.

    He wore nothing more than a simple shirt.

    His hands rested casually inside his pockets.

    Amid deafening cheers...

    He slowly stepped onto the summoner's platform.

    With a wave of his hand...

    All ten summoned beasts appeared one after another before him.

    The stadium instantly exploded with excitement.

    On the opposite side...

    Hua Shaosun, dressed in a black long coat over a short-sleeved outfit, slowly stepped onto his own platform.

    His expression remained cold.

    He raised one hand.

    One summoned beast after another emerged from the Secondary Star.

    By the time the summoning ended...

    Twenty-five summoned beasts stood before him.

    The sheer number stunned the audience.

    Then...

    Su Hao noticed Hua Shaosun calmly remove a strange monocular device and place it over one eye.

    "...A thermal imager."

    So that was their solution.

    The Speed Demon's invisibility would no longer be completely effective.

    Apparently...

    The tournament officials saw nothing wrong with using advanced equipment.

    As far as they were concerned...

    That too was part of a summoner's strength.

    Su Hao paid little attention to it.

    Instead...

    His gaze settled on five unfamiliar summoned beasts standing among Hua Shaosun's lineup.

    He had never seen them before.

    Nor had they appeared in any of the records Chen Qingsheng had previously provided.

    As Hua Shaosun's twenty-five summoned beasts lined up across the battlefield...

    The atmosphere inside the stadium reached its peak.

    Su Hao quietly murmured,

    "So..."

    "These are Super Summoned Beasts."

    "Their presence alone is on an entirely different level."

      On the bright side, i think the tourney make some sense. If they are in constant war with beasts, possessing an ability to analyze and seek counter measure through external objects is also needed. But agreed, a tourney about summoner vs summoner should not allow external objects
