Hunter's League.

After school, Li Xingze came here to register as a Hunter.

Of course, he did not use his real name—not because he was worried about being exposed or anything.

He just felt that using his real name lacked a certain flair.

After registering under the name "Lu Ze," Li Xingze headed to the City Monster Hunter Team's section.

The moment he arrived, a sweet-looking recruitment girl bumped into his chest.

Although Li Xingze was only in his second year of high school, he was already nearly 1.8 meters tall. The sweet girl was only a little over 1.6 meters, and she had been looking down.

"Ah, I'm sorry." The recruitment girl's cheeks flushed red as she hurriedly said, "I didn't see you. I'm terribly sorry."

Watching the girl hurriedly apologize to him, Li Xingze glanced at the recruitment flyers in her hand and immediately realized that she was from the City Monster Hunter Team.

What a stroke of luck—he had found what he was looking for without any effort.

Li Xingze bent down and helped her pick up the flyers scattered on the ground.

"Thank you."

"Your City Monster Hunter Team needs people, right? What do you think of me?" Li Xingze asked.

"You?" The sweet girl looked Li Xingze over. He looked far too young—was he even eighteen?

"Our City Monster Hunter Team recruits mages at least at the second level of the Basic rank," the sweet girl said tactfully.

"Basic rank, second level."

Li Xingze froze for a moment. His Summoning Element was still only at the first level of the Basic rank, still quite a ways from the second level.

"You don't take Summoning Element mages either?" Li Xingze asked with a frown.

"As long as they haven't reached the second level of the Basic rank, we don't—" The sweet girl was about to say no, but then she suddenly looked up at Li Xingze. "You're a Summoning Element mage?"

"Yeah."

"You want to join the City Monster Hunter Team?"

"Yeah!"

"Really?"

"Absolutely."

Only after confirming it several times did the sweet girl run back in delight.

Li Xingze raised an eyebrow. The girl was clearly adorable, but she acted so rushed and flustered.

Half a minute later, Li Xingze heard a thunderous roar. "What?!"

"You're saying a Summoning Element mage wants to join our City Monster Hunter Team?" Xu Dahuang looked at the sweet girl, Xiao Ke, in both shock and delight.

Xiao Ke nodded repeatedly before adding, "I confirmed it several times. He really is a Summoning Element mage."

"Shouldn't Summoning Element mages have been snatched up by the major factions long ago? How could one possibly end up with our City Monster Hunter Team?" the Wind-type mage Li Wenjie questioned.

"His Summoned Beast wouldn't happen to be some useless weakling, would it?" Vice-captain Cai Tang maliciously speculated.

"Probably not."

Xu Dahuang was not entirely sure either. The Summoning Element had an extremely high ceiling at the Basic rank, but its floor was equally low.

"Why not go take a look and find out?" the Earth-type mage Fei Shi said, without any extra thoughts.

Xu Dahuang nodded and immediately left the room, walking up to Li Xingze and asking directly, "Are you the Summoning Element mage?"

Xu Dahuang's voice was so loud that nearly every mage in the Hunter's League heard him. Before Li Xingze could reply, the Hunters around them began chattering noisily.

"Damn, are summoners coming out to compete with me for work now?"

"Fuck, there's no justice. Is this summoner stupid or something? Wouldn't it be better to obediently join some faction and get a cushy job?"

"I heard Tianlan High School has produced a Summoning Element genius. Could it be this guy?"

"No way. A student coming out to be a Hunter?"

Listening to the noisy voices around him, Li Xingze frowned and said to Xu Dahuang, "That's right, I'm a Summoning Element mage. Is your City Monster Hunter Team recruiting?"

"Uh..." Such an eager summoner made Xu Dahuang cautious. "Well, may I ask what your Summoned Beast is?"

Li Xingze frowned. He was not joining the City Monster Hunter Team because he valued their combat strength. He simply did not want to go Wild Monster Hunting.

Besides, he still had school. He could not exactly take leave every day, could he?

"I can summon my Summoned Beast." Li Xingze swept his gaze over the Hunters gathered around to watch before continuing, "I'm just afraid it might scare you."

"Heh, I'd like to see how you plan to scare me." Cai Tang walked over with a cold sneer on her face.

Li Xingze was different from Mo Fan. He had never secretly watched this woman bathe.

So the two had never interacted and naturally did not know each other.

"Don't worry. We're all experienced Hunters. Even if we encountered an even more powerful demon creature, we wouldn't be scared," Xu Dahuang said.

"That's right. I've killed several Cyclops Demon Wolves myself," a Hunter immediately said, proving how brave he was.

The remaining Hunters also began boasting about how capable they were and what "glorious" achievements they had made.

Their records could be verified!

"Fine, clear out an area."

Seeing this, Li Xingze could only show them his Summoned Beast.

At his words, the curious Hunters immediately sprang into action, quickly clearing an area of roughly ten square meters.

"Dimensional Summon!"

Li Xingze closed his eyes. He was already highly familiar with controlling the Star Particles, and failure was generally unlikely.

Seven Star Particles connected into a star path. Then white light flashed, and a mighty, domineering Goldflame Dragon Lion appeared before everyone.

The Hunters who had been bragging so loudly lost half their souls the instant they saw the Goldflame Dragon Lion.

It was the Goldflame Dragon Lion's first time appearing before so many people. Like a monkey kept in a cage, it immediately felt insulted.

But without its master's command, it did not dare attack them. It merely let out heavy snorts.

At the sound, some Hunters fled in panic, while others were frightened so badly their limbs went limp.

Even Xu Dahuang and the others retreated several steps. That pressure made it feel as though they could be slapped to death with a single paw!

What shocked Xu Dahuang most was that flames burned atop the beast's head and at the tip of its tail. This monster was fire-elemental!

Wouldn't that make his Fire Ignition a complete joke? There was no way he could hurt it at all.

Perhaps only a Lightning Element mage could possibly injure it, and even then, only injure it.

Looking at the Hunters who had been scared pissless, Li Xingze waved a hand and recalled his Summoned Beast.

That was it?

After the Goldflame Dragon Lion vanished, Xu Dahuang and the others finally let out a breath of relief.

"Since you have such a powerful Summoned Beast, why become a Hunter? Wouldn't joining any random faction be better than being a Hunter?" Xu Dahuang was thoroughly puzzled.

"Hunters have more freedom," Li Xingze said calmly.

Hearing that explanation, Xu Dahuang laughed speechlessly. This guy was still too young. What use was freedom compared to resources and one's life?

Still, with such a formidable general in the City Monster Hunter Team, their safety would improve considerably.

That was a good thing, so Xu Dahuang did not continue trying to persuade Li Xingze.

With such a powerful trump card, there was simply no danger to be encountered in the city.
