After leaving the room, Lin Fan headed back to the stands to watch the closing ceremonies.
At the same time, it was also to make sure that nothing else happened during the rest of the tournament since he wasn't sure if there was a backup plan or not. While he had already captured all the people that he had marked with Brainy's seeds, there still might be other people that would be working with them.
However, that didn't seem to be the case.
The closing ceremonies could only be described with one word, awkward.
After all, what had happened had been seen by everyone in the stands.
Even if the twelve great factions had tried to cover it up, it was hard to cover up such a public event.
Still, they held the closing ceremonies and gave the winners their prizes.
Chu Huai was missing from this ceremony because his injuries were "too heavy" for him to come, but one of the members of the Chu Family accepted his prize on his behalf.
As for when Mo Ze Chen accepted his prize, many people still had mixed feelings about him. At the very least though, they didn't boo him, but they certainly didn't cheer for him either.
The closing ceremony ended quite quickly since all the twelve great factions had other things to do, so they chased everyone out of the arena quite quickly as well.
Mo Ze Chen asked Lin Fan about what they would do next, but all Lin Fan said was, "We're going to buy a cake."
He still had to buy the cake that he had promised Yuki.
As for the follow up to this matter, he left it to the twelve great factions.
Mo Ze Chen had a bitter smile when he heard this answer, but he still followed Lin Fan to the cake shop.
Later that night, when they were all back at the pet shop, Lin Fan had been resting at the counter while everyone else had gone off to do their own thing.
Angela had dragged Mo Ze Chen back down into the arena.
Even though the tournament was over, Angela had already made it a habit of beating…training Mo Ze Chen, so it seemed like she would continue beating…training him for a bit longer.
The others all went to watch. Yuki watched because she found it fun and she wanted to cheer for Angela, Lulu went just in case anything happened to Mo Ze Chen. After the "training" of the past week, Lulu had gotten better at wrapping Mo Ze Chen up.
As for Momonga, he was just sitting in a chair in the store's display space, reading a web novel on his watch.
As Lin Fan sat there relaxing, there was a sudden voice that rang in his ears that cut through his thoughts.
"Ding, new mission has been issued."
Lin Fan's eyes popped out when he heard this.
It hadn't been that long since Lin Fan had just passed a mission, but now his system was giving him another mission.
Other than in the beginning before he finished the tutorial, this had never happened.
What was going on with his system?
"Host, don't be rude to the system. First warning."
Well that was something that he hadn't heard in a while.
It seemed like the system was still the same system…
"Host, don't be rude to the system. Second warning."
Lin Fan didn't push his luck after that since he had already gotten his two strikes. After that was…
The system ignored Lin Fan as it continued on with the mission.
"A pet shop that doesn't sell pets, how could that be allowed? Please prepare and sell some pets to your customers. Of course, only the top grade pets can be sold at the top grade store or it will affect the store's reputation."
"Child Soul Realm pets sold: 0/1000. Nascent Soul Realm pets sold: 0/100."
"Reward: Upgrade of the shadow cultivation room."
"Time to get selling, host!"
Lin Fan looked at the pop up for the mission and he couldn't help being surprised by it.
He had a feeling that the tone of the system had changed recently and seeing this, it was no longer just a feeling. The way that the system was talking, it seemed much more fluent and not as mechanical as before…
Lin Fan couldn't help blurting out, "System are you alright? Do you have a fever…a virus?"
"Host, don't be rude to the system. Third warning."
"Final warning given, random punishment will be chosen."
"Temporary full body paralysis has been chosen."
Before Lin Fan could even say anything, he felt his entire body turning numb. He had been sitting in the chair at the counter, but when his body went numb like this, he slid right out of the chair and fell to the ground.
It was at this time that Mo Ze Chen came out of the door to the back.
He had come up for a quick breather, but he never expected to see Lin Fan lying on the ground like this.
Mo Ze Chen just stared at Lin Fan with wide eyes, unsure of how to react to this. But after a moment to come back to his senses, he asked in a concerned voice, "Boss, are you alright?"
Lin Fan gave a bitter laugh in his mind, but he said, "I'm just laying around, don't mind me."
Mo Ze Chen revealed a completely confused look as he couldn't understand what Lin Fan was thinking at all. But still, he already knew that his boss was quite strange, so he chose to ignore it as he headed outside for some fresh air.
As he went out, he moved quite quickly as he heard the sounds coming from behind him from the back of the store.
The paralysis only lasted five minutes before Lin Fan was able to stand up again.
Lin Fan ignored the system and turned his attention to his mission.
He didn't feel that much pressure from the content of the mission itself since it was something that he could easily do.
Now that he had broken through to the Child Soul Realm, it wasn't a problem for him to control Nascent Soul Realm beasts, let alone Child Soul Realm beasts.
The only problems that he had with this was where he would get the eggs needed and who he would sell these pets to.
After all, a Child Soul Realm pet wasn't something that could be sold that easily.
Child Soul Realm could be considered powerful experts of the twelve great factions, so there was no need to even mention Nascent Soul Realm Experts.
In total, each of the twelve great factions had no more than fifty Nascent Soul Realm Experts each. So if he were to sell a hundred Nascent Soul Realm pets to one single faction, it would completely throw off the power balance between the twelve great factions.
Lin Fan wasn't interested in starting a power war in this upper realm. While he knew it was impossible for him to keep a low profile after everything that had happened, at the very least, he didn't want his fame to exceed the younger generation.
If he were to attract the attention of the real experts of this upper realm, that would mean a lot of trouble for him.
So after thinking about it, Lin Fan could only come up with the solution that he had to slowly divide these pets among the twelve great factions.
But before he did anything else, he would have to obtain the eggs needed to breed all these pets. It was a good thing that he had the incubation chamber, now the only thing that he needed were the eggs.
However, that also wasn't too much of a problem since Lin Fan was connected to the Tamers Guild, the biggest supplier of eggs.
Lin Fan looked at the time and after thinking about it, he still raised his watch and dialed a number.
The watch rang for a few times before it connected.
"This is a rare thing, you're actually calling me. So what is this rare occasion?"
Lin Fan just casually said, "I need some eggs, high grade ones."
There was a silence from the other side before the voice said, "How high grade?"
Lin Fan once again calmly said, "One thousand Child Soul Realm eggs and one hundred Nascent Soul Realm eggs."
The silence before the answer was even longer this time, but when the voice spoke, it spoke at a volume that was hard to control, "One thousand Child Soul Realm eggs and one hundred Nascent Soul Realm eggs?! Do you know how crazy that amount is?"
Lin Fan just gave a shrug and said, "Isn't that why I'm contacting you?"
There was a snort before the other side said, "Impossible, I can't give you that much on my own."
Lin Fan gave a chuckle before saying, "What if I sell you fifty Child Soul Realm beasts and five Nascent Soul Realm beasts? Well, that is after I hatch them."
The other side was silent for a bit before asking, "Are you serious? You're saying that you can hatch the eggs? You should know how crazy of a claim that is."
That was right, even though they were known as Monster Tamers, they had a problem when it came to hatching beasts. It was a job that had a very low chance of success, so most people chose to hunt for beasts instead of raising them.
But now Lin Fan was saying that he could hatch these eggs and he had a high rate of success?
It had to be known that even 1% success rate was already considered high when hatching beast eggs.
