Chapter 437 Trainers Assembly

An hour later.

Su Ping arrived at the residential district of the Holy Light Base City.

This base city was three times larger than the average base cities.

The outside walls were as high as a thousand meters and were able to protect the inhabitants against most ninth-rank beasts. Even a beast king would have a hard time trying to break in.

There were residential districts, administrative districts, and the Holy Light District in the base city.

Of all the districts, the Holy Light District was at the core of the base city; that was where the Trainer Association’s headquarters was found.

The residential district was in the outermost region. Since Su Ping was not a local, the driver could only drive him to the residential district.

Su Ping got out of the car and looked around.

Even though the residential district was closer to the base city’s border, the buildings were quite magnificent. High buildings and large mansions were built everywhere. Some of the buildings were unique. Several buildings were decorated with paintings of battle pets on the outside. Some of the buildings were even built into the shape of a battle pet, for example, a dragon lying on the ground!

Many pedestrians on the road were accompanied by some adorable and small pets.

Su Ping could also see many different battle pet images painted on the street, including battle pets of the demon family, or the element family. The entire city was a world of astral pets. Su Ping had the belief that the environment was very important in nurturing one’s interest. No wonder the city could see the birth of several master battle pet warriors every year. It was understandable.

“Hurry. I heard that the trainer’s competition has already started.”

“Hurry up!” Several boys and girls ran past Su Ping.

Su Ping didn’t understand. Trainer’s competition?

What would the trainers compete in?

Su Ping’s impression about trainers was that they all had to train pets for some time before the effects could be presented; maybe a couple of days or even months. How boring would the competition be?

Propelled by curiosity, Su Ping went after the boys and girls. Soon, Su Ping arrived at a medium-sized stadium. The boys and girls had already gone inside.

Su Ping was ready to go in.

“Sir, please show us your invitation or your Trainer ID.” The two guards at the door stopped Su Ping.

Su Ping suddenly remembered that the boys and girls presented something to the guards.

“Well… I don’t have them.”

Su Ping answered.

The guards were surprised. One of them said, “Not even Trainer ID? Even an ID of the elementary level will be fine.”

Su Ping had never gone to the Trainer Association of the Longjiang Base City and had never gotten himself such an ID. His mom had one. She was the one who had been running the store before and was a professional trainer after all, although not of a high level.

“I have never applied for it.

“Can I buy a ticket?” Su Ping asked.

The two guards shook their heads. “No. ID only. You can go and get one, then you can come back.”

It never occurred to Su Ping that money could be of no use here. Having no other choice, Su Ping turned around and was ready to leave.

“Do you want to go and watch the match? I can take you inside.” He heard a pleasant voice.

Two girls were approaching him.

They were both in their twenties. One of the girls was wearing a ponytail, jeans, and a white T-shirt while the other was wearing her hair down and something more stylish; a purple dress and high heels. “Rongrong, what are you doing? We don’t know him.” The second girl tried to stop her friend.

“It’s okay. He wants to go and I have an extra ticket. We can take him with us.” The girl with the ponytail smiled a sweet smile.

The girl in the purple dress darted her friend an annoyed look and then looked at Su Ping, only to see that he looked quite nice, handsome, and full of vigor. Suddenly, the girl in the purple dress no longer had a problem with her friend’s decision.

“Thank you so much,” Su Ping thanked the kind girls.

Hu Rongrong smiled. She took out her pocket purse from her jeans and grabbed an ID that was the size of a banking card. “Can I take him in with me?” she asked the guard.

The guard stared at the ID and looked at the girl. “Miss, you’re a trainer at the intermediate-position of the sixth rank. Of course you can take him with you.”

Su Ping was surprised that the girl who seemed to be his age was a seasoned trainer.

Those at the higher ranks were advanced trainers.

Like battle pet warriors, trainers had nine different ranks.

The process for trainers was even harder than that for battle pet warriors!

Theoretically speaking, at the same rank, trainers would be more valued than battle pet warriors! “This way, please.”

The guards stepped to the sides and invited them in respectfully.

Hu Rongrong retrieved her ID and put her purse back into her pocket. “I see that you’re from another base city. Am I right?”

Su Ping nodded. “Yes. I just arrived at the Holy Light Base City today.” “Are you here for the Trainers Assembly?” The girl in the purple dress sized up Su Ping with interest.

“Trainers Assembly?” Su Ping repeated those words.

“You don’t know it?”

Both girls were stunned. Why hadn’t Su Ping heard the name of such a grand event?

Su Ping realized that he might have asked the wrong question. “I’m here on business. I heard there is a match going on and wanted to drop in and have a look.”

“Well…” The girl in the purple dress nodded. “This is a competition for trainers. Are you a trainer as well? If you’re not, you may not be able to understand the match.”

“I am… kind of.”

“Kind of?” The two girls were even more confused. “Which rank are you at? Why did you come without your ID? Did you lose it?” asked the girl in the purple dress.

“I’ve been too busy to apply for the ID.” Su Ping did not know what to say. “I think I’m an elementary trainer.” He had never been to the Trainers Association to take the test. He thought he was at the elementary level according to the system’s assessment.

“So, the elementary level…” The girl in the purple dress darted another look at Su Ping, clearly less interested in him. She even said less to him.

On the other hand, Hu Rongrong was comforting. “You are still very young. Being at the elementary level is good enough.”

Su Ping was speechless. It was the first time that someone would speak to him as if he were the junior of the group. The girl wasn’t old but her words were mature.

Su Ping replied with a smile.

The three of them went inside.

Su Ping found out the girls’ names through their conversation. The girl wearing the ponytail was Hu Rongrong and the other one in the purple dress was Kong Lingling. They were both trainers and students of a famous academy.

Su Ping asked about the Trainers Assembly. The Holy Light Base City was hosting the Trainers Assembly which occurred every three years. This event was like the Elite League for battle pet warriors, a grand event; trainers from all the other base cities would gather in the Holy Light Base City.

They would compete against each other to win the championship.

The winner would have the chance to join the headquarters of the Trainers Association!

The Trainers Assembly was still at the preliminary stage and the official games had yet to begin. The matches in this stadium were autonomously held.

There were a lot of grass-root matches like this in the Holy Light Base City, which was one of the base city’s features.

The three of them stepped into the corridor. Soon after, Su Ping began to hear some loud cheers and shouts. At the end of the corridor was a stage with seats around it. There had to be more than a thousand people there already.

On the stage, there were two people with battle pets, kind of how the Elite League looked. The difference was that the stage was intact. The two didn’t look at each other; they focused on the battle pets in front of them. “We need to find a better spot,” Kong Lingling said as she looked around. To her delight, she noticed something all of a sudden. She said to Hu Rongrong at once. “Rongrong, see, Senior Xiao is there. Let’s go.”

Hu Rongrong was hesitating when Kong Lingling had already grabbed her hand, dragging her away.
