Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 131: Shocking Speed! Advanced Skill Book Acquired!

drop!!!

A piercing alarm sounded.

The instant the ripples at the starting point disappeared, all the participants gripped their mounts tightly:

"Charge!!!"

The audience members stared intently at the seven-tailed white fox.

'I've heard that Shen Yun's white fox is incredibly fast! I'll have to see for myself!'

'On the 1000-meter track, if White Fox uses Flash, she might be stopped...'

"Hiss!!!" At this moment, a collective gasp filled the arena.

Because the first place result has already been displayed in the void!

[First Place in China Region: Shen Yun (0.5 seconds)]

[Friendly reminder: Players with the same time can request a rematch for ranking.]

'Holy crap?!'

'It hasn't run away yet!' The people in the stands stood up in shock, looking at the white fox's figure at the starting line.

But then I realized...

That was just an afterimage; it had already been blown away by the powerful winds whipped up by the surrounding demonic beasts!

boom!!!

The crowd erupted in cheers.

"It was just an afterimage! That was fucking fast!!!"

"0.5 seconds per kilometer?! That's terrifying speed!!"

"This speed is simply unbeatable! What level is it at to be so fast?!"

"It's like he's cheating!!" Everyone was incredulous.

0.5 seconds is just the blink of an eye; once the fight begins, the person is gone?

It's hard to imagine that, as fellow baby demon beasts, Shen Yun's fox demon is so monstrous!

'I'm afraid the bloodline of this fox demon is extremely astonishing…' Many spies from various factions on the seats wore extremely solemn expressions.

'This kind of person is absolutely not to be trifled with; he's terrifyingly strong!'

'It seems that as long as my Evil Soul Hall's patriarch doesn't appear, I'll continue to be a subordinate...'

'We can only wait for the sect token! If we can obtain a sect token from a major power, there's a chance we can get a Xuan Tian cultivator to suppress him…'

The horse racing venue was now incredibly noisy.

No one was paying attention to the participants who were still racing; many people were staring at the virtual ranking projections.

The second-ranked Celestial Master's Thunder Beast only lasted 2.8 seconds, while the third to tenth ranked masters didn't even break the three-second barrier. The shock wave after wave was overwhelming!

"2.8 seconds? That's impressive." Bai Xian'er at the finish line raised an eyebrow, but that was all.

Because she didn't use Void Flash!

Shen Yun didn't rush to leave, but instead went to his seat to look at the virtual competition rankings:

'Most of them were famous figures in their previous lives...'

There were many familiar faces on the list, but he only recognized them by name.

After watching for a while and not seeing anyone break the 2.5-second barrier, he knew the event was in the bag and couldn't help but look at the photographers around him.

'Why not take advantage of the event ending to buy some non-binding high-level skill books and see if anyone's selling them...'

Capitalizing on the buzz surrounding their first-place finish in the competition, they publicly announced that many people would definitely see it.

The chances of buying it are slim, but it doesn't hurt to give it a try.

After all, some advanced skill books are comparable to supernatural powers!

Over time.

The top 100 rankings are now very difficult to challenge.

Only Shen Yun and Zhang Ruofeng's Thunder Beast were able to break the three-second barrier.

"The event is over!!" Seeing the countdown end, many people in the arena looked towards Shen Yun in the distance.

"White Fox is still in first place!!"

"He should be able to obtain advanced skill books, right?"

"What's the use of being fast? Even getting first place depends on luck! You might not even get it if you're unlucky!"

"Damn, he doesn't look like someone with bad luck at all!" Everyone was speechless.

Top-tier mounts, holy-grade swords, and who knows what other amazing reward items might be included.

If this guy has the "unlucky" attribute, then what are they?

'I just hope he doesn't get some overpowered skill, otherwise he'll get all the benefits!' Everyone prayed silently.

at the same time.

A notification popped up in front of Shen Yun:

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for winning first place in the [Monster Baby Race] event! Reward: One non-binding item - Advanced Skill Book Scroll! (Already placed in the game account inventory)]

"Wow, I won!!" He quickly opened his account inventory.

The chances of getting an advanced skill book are only slightly higher for the top-ranked player.

Now that the award is in hand, it's safe to say that the prize is secured, but it doesn't reveal any practical, advanced skills.

"Really, Brother Yun!" Bai Xian'er, who was lying down enjoying the caresses, instantly perked up and transformed into a human form, jumping onto Shen Yun's shoulder.

She was quite clever; she immediately set up a spatial strangulation cage around herself, blocking out sound and other people's sight, to prevent anyone from launching a sneak attack or causing trouble.

Shen Yun took out a scroll wrapped in golden cloth and handed it to Bai Xian'er:

"Lai Xian'er, your luck must be amazing!"

"Brother Yun, I wouldn't dare!" Bai Xian'er clung to his neck in a flustered manner, refusing to let go, her eyes timid.

"It would be a shame if it wasn't driven well."

This is a rare opportunity, and the first-place prize is not something you can easily come across.

"There's always a first time in life, give it a try! My luck might not be that good either." Shen Yun suppressed a laugh, picked her up, and began to urge her on like a cunning advisor:

"Think about it, right now there are definitely a lot of people who don't want me to open any good items, so why don't you open them!"

That's not wrong. From a metaphysical point of view, he might actually be accumulating bad luck right now.

However, Shen Yun didn't believe in this thing; he just wanted to tease this cute girl.

"These bad guys!" Bai Xian'er huffed angrily. Unable to resist his persistent pleading, she could only cautiously extend her little paws, nervously close her eyes, and pull the package.

Wow!

The golden cloth transformed into a starry sky, supporting an ancient scroll inside.

Shen Yun glanced at the pop-up notification and his eyes widened immediately:

"666!"

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you have obtained the pet skill book: Advanced Spell Critical Strike!]

[Advanced Spell Critical Strike: When a monster pet uses spells or magical abilities, the damage dealt is at least double and at most five times the normal amount!]

[Item Characteristics: Not bound (tradeable, giftable)]

[How to use: Simply place the baby monster's hand on the skill book.]

2-5 times the spell damage!

This ability is absolutely top-notch!

"Yay!!!" The timid Bai Xian'er instantly swelled up, excitedly wagging her seven big tails.

This ability combined with her supernatural powers is simply amazing!

"See, I told you you were lucky!" Shen Yun was also very happy:

"Quickly, use it now, lest something goes wrong."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Yun!" Bai Xian'er didn't refuse, and placed her hand on the scroll.

'I'll find good treasures for Brother Yun in the future too!'

Shen Yun would give her any suitable treasures he had. Although the two had a close relationship, Bai Xian'er was deeply moved by his care and selflessness.

Of course, she would do the same.

After Bai Xian'er finished learning and dispelled the surrounding void strangulation technique, Shen Yun looked at the photography area not far away where people were frantically taking pictures of him and waved.

After a moment's hesitation, the group charged forward, carrying their equipment.

"Mr. Shen, is there something you're trying to say?!"

"Hello Mr. Shen, I am a reporter from Qingshan City..."

"I'm……"

Shen Yun raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet:

"If anyone has a practical advanced skills book, please contact my company directly for a quote, and I will personally handle the transaction with them."

'So that's what it is...' Everyone understood and began to record and film.

Seeing the flashes going off non-stop, Bai Xian'er didn't want to embarrass Shen Yun. She walked a few steps with her head held high and chest out, feeling that she had taken enough pictures. Then, she carried Shen Yun on her back, leaped up, and with a few quick movements, jumped out of the racetrack and disappeared.

'If only I had such a beautiful mount…' Everyone looked at the white mist footprints left in the void with envy and jealousy.

This white fox is very beautiful and incredibly fast.

Running like that feels like stepping on auspicious clouds and soaring into the sky is so cool!

I imagine she'll be even more stunning after transforming!

Looking down at the incredibly ugly contracted beast beside me, I felt so heartbroken...
