Wu Ming sized up the person sitting next to Chu Yuanxun.
It was an old man.
He looked to be in his sixties or seventies. He had a head full of silver hair that stood upright like the quills on a hedgehog. He was full of energy.
That square face was full of majesty.
His hands were on the table, and each finger was wearing two to three gemstone rings. He looked very luxurious.
Wu Ming used the Eye of Insight.
[Name: Wang Defa]
[Identity: City Lord of Nanjiang City]
[Level: Peak A-level Beast Tamer]
[Pet: Golden-Winged Eagle King (Peak A-level)]
[Pet Talents: A-level Seraphic Speed, A-level Transcendent Wings, A-level Immeasurable Light Cannon …]
Looking at the information, Wu Ming was dumbfounded.
Wang Defa?
That name was so familiar!
Wait a minute!
Wu Ming remembered.
When he was still an F-level Beast Tamer, he followed Xu Qianqian's fleet to visit Elder Xu in Yaotao Ancient Town. On the way, he encountered two peak A-level beasts.
One of them was a peak A-level beast, the Crowned Sparrow.
Its strength was terrifying.
Just its cry was enough to shatter the windows of the fleet. With a flap of its wings, it could cause a raging storm.
At that time, Wu Ming almost thought he was going to die.
Then, he found another peak A-level beast chasing after the Crowned Sparrow. At that time, Huang Sanba recognized the Golden-Winged Eagle King and said that it was the guardian of Nanjiang City.
At that time, Wu Ming also saw a figure in a combat suit standing on the head of the Golden-Winged Eagle King.
That person was Wang Defa!
It turned out that he was not only the guardian of Nanjiang City, but also the City Lord of Nanjiang City!
Wu Ming ended his memory.
At this time, Wang Defa was also sizing up Wu Ming.
Wang Defa gestured for Wu Ming to sit down and said casually, "So you are Wu Ming. I think we should have met in the wilderness. Do you remember the Crowned Sparrow?"
Wu Ming's heart trembled!
He had thought that Wang Defa had been focused on killing the Flying Crown Sparrow, so he had not noticed the carriages on the ground. Who would have thought that Wang Defa actually had an impression of them!
"Don't be surprised!"
Wang Defa said slowly.
"My pet is a Golden-Winged Eagle King at the peak of Class A, and an eagle's vision is almost invincible. Thanks to the pet's feedback, my vision is also very good, and I have a photographic memory. That's why I remember you."
"Wu Ming, you are a person with a lot of potential."
"I admire you very much."
Wang Defa added.
Wu Ming sat opposite Wang Defa. Ye San Niang and Wang Chulu did not dare to sit. They only dared to stand behind Wu Ming.
"Greetings, City Lord!"
"City Lord An Kang."
The host, Wang Ying, and the commentator, Liao Xiangxiang, didn't expect City Lord Wang Defa to appear in the treasury. They were very surprised and hurriedly greeted him respectfully.
"You guys go back first!"
Wang Defa glanced at the two women. They quickly nodded and left.
Soon.
Wu Ming, Ye San Niang, Wang Chulu, Wang Defa, and Chu Yuanxun were the only five people left in the hall on the first floor of the treasury.
"City Lord, are you looking for me?"
Wu Ming looked at Wang Defa.
He had to admit that even if the Rainbow Winged Chameleon had advanced to Class A, it still could not defeat Wang Defa's Golden-Winged Eagle King at the peak of Class A.
In the Class A domain, the Golden-Winged Eagle King and the Flying Crown Sparrow were the top existences.
To defeat them, the Rainbow Winged Chameleon had to be at the peak of Class A at the very least.
To kill them, several or even more than a dozen peak Class A's or one Class S's would be required.
"What else could it be other than trying to rope you in?"
Wang Defa crossed his arms and laughed.
"To be honest, I really admire you. If you are willing to stay in the City Lord's residence and develop, I can consider grooming you to be the next City Lord."
"The next City Lord of Nanjiang City?" Wang Chulu and Ye San Niang were both shocked.
Only Wu Ming and Chu Yuanxun's expressions did not change.
"The future City Lord of Nanjiang City, this is very tempting, but … this is not what I want." Wu Ming shook his head and rejected Wang Defa's invitation on the spot.
"Oh?
Rejected? Interesting indeed! "
Wang Defa laughed.
He leaned back on the comfortable sofa and sized up Wu Ming with great interest.
"If you become the City Lord of Nanjiang City, you will be able to surpass the six major families. Women, wealth, land, resources … you can squander them as you wish. Moreover, only by becoming the City Lord can you open up the path to Class S."
Wang Defa said indifferently.
"Why?" Wu Ming did not understand.
"Do you think it is so easy to reach Class S?
To reach Class C, you already need an Evolution Crystal. To reach Class S, you still need the even more precious Class S Super Evolution Crystal. There are only ten known pieces of this item in the entire world! "
Wang Defa suddenly laughed, looking slightly proud. "Our Nanjiang City Lord's residence just so happens to have one."
"Super Evolution Crystal!
That is indeed a tempting offer. "Wu Ming's breath quickened.
He had only learned of the existence of Class S Super Evolution Crystals when he went to the Muddy Dragon Swamp and received a dream.
Without such an item, his pet could not reach Class S!
"There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. The City Lord would not train me for no reason, would he?
What do you need? "
Wu Ming looked at Wang Defa.
"You are a rare genius tamer. As far as I know, the quality of the evolutionary food you make is superior. Therefore, I hope that you can make superior grade S-grade evolutionary food and help me ascend to S-grade."
Wang Defa finally stated his request.
Wu Ming would make Class S evolutionary food to help his pet, the Golden-winged Eagle King, advance to Class S, and Wu Ming would become the next City Lord.
This was a good deal.
To reach Class S, the Super Evolution Crystal alone was not enough. One would also need Class S evolutionary food.
The evolutionary food that Wu Ming made was of superior quality, which caught Wang Defa's attention.
Even though they were both Class S evolutionary food, there was a 30% difference in efficacy between the superior and the inferior. He would never use the inferior if he could use the superior one.
Hearing this, Wu Ming's mouth twitched.
"I am only a Class D trainer. Are you sure I can make Class S evolutionary food?
Besides, I don't have the recipe. I can't do it. "
Wu Ming shook his head.
"My intuition has always been sharp.
I can see that you have the potential to become a Class S trainer. If I invest in you, I am sure I can reach Class S as well.
As for the recipe, the City Lord's residence has it. I can give it to you, "Wang Defa said seriously.
He had been observing Wu Ming for a long time.
At first, Wang Defa didn't think Wu Ming was the genius trainer he was looking for. However, after the national competition, he believed that Wu Ming was the trainer he needed.
"It takes a lot of time to become a Class S trainer. Can you afford to wait?" Wu Ming frowned slightly.
"How old do you think I am?" Wang Defa suddenly stood up and spread his hands.
"Sixty?
Seventy? "Wu Ming guessed.
"I am already a hundred and three years old," Wang Defa said something shocking.
"Eagles have a long lifespan. I received feedback from my pet, the Golden-Winged Eagle King, that I can live up to a hundred and fifty years old. Therefore, I can wait for you for a few more decades."
Hearing this, Wu Ming and the surrounding people were shocked.
Only Chu Yuanxun remained calm.
He had seen the other leaders of the Black Pyramid. One of the female leaders was a hidden Class S Beast Tamer. She looked like a seventeen or eighteen year old girl, but in reality, she was old enough to be his grandmother.
Therefore, Chu Yuanxun was not surprised when he learned that Wang Defa was a hundred and one years old.
In his seat.
Wu Ming was deep in thought.
He didn't expect that after becoming a high-level Beast Tamer, one's lifespan could be extended. Although it was only a few decades, it was enough to drive people crazy.
Five minutes later.
"Have you thought about it?" Wang Defa put down his teacup and asked in a low voice.
