Chen Heng’s expression was calm as he walked out of the tall building and silently walked to the side.
His expression looked very calm, but he was also deep in thought.
Before he left that place, he was still a free man.
But now, after seeing Liu Rou, he had become a contract worker.
He had signed an agreement with the other party. He had become the other party’s sponsorship target to a certain extent.
It was just that the conditions were much better compared to normal employment.
But that was it.
Signing an agreement with a certain group and accepting sponsorship was something he had long thought of.
Now that things had really turned out like this, there was nothing to be surprised about.
It was only within expectations.
However, if this was the case, Chen Heng’s future development would be much smoother.
At the very least, some of the things that he originally needed to worry about could now be left to others to worry about.
According to the agreement, after this, Chen Heng would have special people to provide him with the resources he needed for his monthly cultivation.
There would even be a fixed amount of money given to him every month. The conditions were very generous.
Of course, since the conditions were so generous, he naturally had to pay. What Chen Heng paid was part of his freedom.
After this, he needed to constantly inform the people of the Black Dream Group of his position. At the same time, when necessary, he also needed to accept missions from the Black Dream Group. If there was no legitimate reason, he could not refuse.
Overall, compared to before, there were many more restrictions. However, Chen Heng did not care about this.
Most things in this world were like this. If you wanted to obtain something, you had to lose something. It was fated to be impossible to only obtain without losing.
Therefore, Chen Heng did not feel anything wrong with the contract. At this moment, the only thing he needed to think about was something else.
‘The league tournament, huh…’
Chen Heng recalled his conversation with Liu Rou just now while walking on the road. This thought flashed through his mind, and he could not help but frown.
Just now, after reaching an agreement, Liu Rou had informed him of the first task he needed to complete.
They had requested for him to participate in this Qika League tournament.
The so-called Qika League was the best competition held on this planet. Every year, there would be many spectators, and it was a very prestigious competition.
And the participants in it were the candidates who met the requirements of the entire planet.
According to what Chen Heng had just learned, if one wanted to enter and join the Qika League, other than being in a top-tier academy, one also had to be recommended.
Otherwise, even if one wanted to participate in the tournament, there was no way they would be accepted.
This was what Chen Heng had learned from Liu Rou. The threshold for such a tournament was undoubtedly very high.
Based on what Chen Heng had learned, this tournament seemed to be far from as simple as it seemed on the surface. It even involved negotiations between the federation and the extraterrestrial forces.
The rewards were also very shocking. The competition winner could even receive the reward of a young Imperial Beast.
Before this, Chen Heng thought about whether he should think of a way to get an entrance ticket to participate in the competition and obtain a young Imperial Beast.
However, he didn’t expect that he would have the chance to obtain one now.
Moreover, at this time, there was no need for him to participate in this kind of competition and fight to win a young Imperial Beast.
Before this, in the agreement, Liu Rou had already promised Chen Heng.
Prior to participating in the competition, she would think of a way to get Chen Heng a young Imperial Beast, and directly hand it over to him.
He didn’t need to do much for a young Imperial Beast. This kind of spending could be considered extremely generous.
Even if it was the most ordinary kind, a young Imperial Beast was definitely not that simple in value. It could be considered an extremely precious item.
An ordinary person would definitely not be able to get their hands on it even if they were to go bankrupt.
And up until now, Chen Heng hadn’t even done much. He had only indicated that he was willing to accept the other party’s sponsorship, and the other party had automatically delivered the item to his doorstep.
The difference between the two was really huge.
However, after having an Imperial Beast, Chen Heng’s desire for the competition had also decreased.
If it weren’t for Liu Rou’s request, he might not have been willing to participate in this competition.
Once every moment, Chen Heng would pause his footsteps and look into the distance.
In the distance, pedestrians walked in front of him. They seemed very calm, but they were also very scrambled.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Heng was silent for a moment. Then, he continued to walk forward.
Not long after, he left this place and went to the distance, to the place where he trained every day.
In a familiar place, the decorations around him were still the same.
However, compared to before, at this time, the telekinetic power in Chen Heng’s body had gradually increased, becoming stronger and stronger.
Although the telekinetic power in his body was still unable to compare to senior Beastmasters like Yang Ke, compared to before, it had already increased by a lot, becoming much stronger.
If he continued at this rate, it wouldn’t take him too long to catch up to Yang Ke and the others.
He could feel his progress from the training room.
After a round of training, he returned to the place he had been before and went to Fang Yuan’s Slaughterhouse to work.
After accepting the Black Dream Group sponsorship, in theory, Chen Heng did not need to continue working here to earn his living expenses.
However, for Chen Heng, he could not leave this place for the time being.
After all, if he left this place, it would not be easy for him to find a place where he could easily obtain the slaughter power.
There was no place in the entire academy that was more suitable for Chen Heng to cultivate than this place.
If he were to stay here, the accumulation of the slaughter power in his body would speed up, and he would become stronger rapidly.
Therefore, even though he had enough funding, Chen Heng’s life seemed to be the same as before. There was not much difference.
The days seemed to be the same as before. There were not many changes.
Soon, more than half a month passed in peace.
Half a month later, Liu Rou personally came to Chen Heng’s residence.
“This is where you live?”
She walked to Chen Heng’s room and looked at the furnishings around her. She looked surprised and said, “It’s very simple.”
There was nothing different around Chen Heng’s room. All the furnishings were very ordinary.
At first glance, it looked like an ordinary person’s room. There was nothing different.
If Liu Rou didn’t know that this was Chen Heng’s room, she would probably have thought that this was an ordinary person’s room.
“It’s just a place to stay. There’s no need for too many tricks.”
Chen Heng’s voice sounded in front of her.
He was sitting on the floor in front of her. He looked like he was meditating. His expression was very calm. At this moment, he opened his eyes and looked at Liu Rou in front of him. He said, “And this place is provided by the academy. It’s not appropriate to renovate it without permission.”
“That’s right.”
Standing there, Liu Rou nodded and said with a smile, “It just so happens that I have a house nearby. The conditions are much better than this one.”
“If you don’t mind, you can stay there. I don’t usually stay there anyway. It’s a waste to be idle.”
“And…”
She said softly, looking at Chen Heng’s handsome face. Her voice unconsciously became gentle as she said, “Maybe we can still have some fun in there…”
Her voice kept ringing in the same place. It sounded very gentle, but it also had a unique temptation, as if it had a strong hint.
“That’s unnecessary.” Chen Heng responded.
Chen Heng’s face was calm. Hearing Liu Rou’s words, he just silently shook his head and said, “This place is quite good and pretty convenient. There’s no need for a change.
“Have you brought the things I want?” He looked at Liu Rou in front of him and suddenly asked.
At this moment, he looked very calm, as if he didn’t understand what the other party meant.
“Tsk, how boring.”
Looking at Chen Heng’s expression, Liu Rou shook her head and said with a smile, “Don’t worry.”
“We’ve brought what you asked for.”
“It’s an Imperial Beast egg from the Black Iron Planet. If the estimation is accurate, it should be a Dragon Bird’s egg.”
“Dragon Bird?”
Sitting on the spot, Chen Heng couldn’t help but frown when he heard the name.
“Yes.”
Liu Rou nodded and confirmed Chen Heng’s words. “This is a unique life form on the Black Iron Planet. It has very good potential. Once it matures, it can have terrifying destructive power.
“Of course, this kind of Imperial Beast is only considered average among the group of Imperial Beasts.
“But there’s nothing we can do about it.”
She said softly, looking at Chen Heng in front of her, and continued, “A truly high-quality Imperial Beast egg is a very rare thing. It’s not that easy to obtain
“Even this Imperial Beast egg was obtained with great effort by me.”
“Thank you.”
Chen Heng didn’t say anything. He just nodded silently. He wasn’t disappointed by this result. He had already expected it.
In this world, qualified Imperial Beasts were very precious. High-quality Imperial Beasts were even more precious.
A high-quality Imperial Beast’s appearance could easily cause a huge wave. Countless people’s gazes would turn to it, wanting to capture it in their hands.
It was undoubtedly extremely difficult to obtain a high-quality Imperial Beast.
Even if the Black Dream Group had one, they wouldn’t easily give such a precious thing to Chen Heng.
It was great for him to receive an ordinary Imperial Beast. Therefore, Chen Heng didn’t feel surprised by the result before his eyes.
“The Dragon Bird’s power can only be considered ordinary among Imperial Beasts. However, once it is cultivated, it can also be used as a rather strong power, allowing your telekinesis to play a more powerful role.”
In front of him, Liu Rou said softly, “The reason the company gave you this Dragon Bird’s egg is to make you feel at ease and at the same time obtain a good result in the upcoming league tournament.
“You can rest assured in this aspect.
“As long as you perform well in the league tournament and can even complete more missions in the future, I will have the right to fight for better resources for you.
“Some things that should be yours will definitely not run away.”
Looking at Chen Heng, who was sitting upright in front of her, her expression gradually became serious. At this moment, she looked at him and said this.
The moment she signed the agreement with Chen Heng, their interests had already been tied up to a certain extent.
As the manager in charge of this area of the Black Dream Group, she indeed had a lot of autonomy. But at the same time, she also had to bear a lot of responsibility.
Chen Heng was someone she had signed on her own initiative, including all kinds of treatment, and even the Imperial Beasts that she had fought for Chen Heng.
Under such circumstances, if Chen Heng’s later performance were not outstanding enough to satisfy others, she would not explain it to the people behind him.
On the contrary, if Chen Heng’s performance was outstanding and stunning, then as the person who had personally discovered Chen Heng, Liu Rou could be considered to have a certain level of insight. She would naturally receive a great reward or even other benefits.
The interests of both sides could overlap to a certain extent. Because of this, Chen Heng was not afraid of the other party doing anything.
“I understand.”
Looking at Liu Rou in front of him, Chen Heng nodded and said softly, “I’ll do my best.”
“That’s good.”
Looking at Chen Heng’s attitude, Liu Rou nodded with some satisfaction. Then, she said, “With the strength that you displayed previously, although you’re still a little lacking in the league tournament….”
