Long Yu led Lin You to the meeting room.
As soon as the door opened, everyone's eyes were immediately cast over.
He seemed very concerned about this matter.
When Long Yu left before, they were curious about who it was that could be greeted by the president in person.
"He is..."
The moment they saw Lin You, many people immediately showed expressions of surprise.
Jiang Lantian was stunned for a moment, and when he looked at the expressions of the people around him, he felt even more confused.
Is there anything special about this person?
Doesn’t he look like a little brother?
Could it be the child of some big shot in the association?
Not really!
His father is Jiang Yujie, the president of the entire Jiangcheng Association, but when he came here, he didn't see these masters looking at him like that.
It was obvious that he was shocked!
Jiang Lantian was puzzled and had to ask Chen Qian beside him for help: "Uncle Chen, who is this little brother? He seems to be very respected by everyone."
Chen Qian suddenly smiled. He was familiar with Jiang Lantian's personality and knew that he was probably a little jealous at the moment.
After all, he is the child of President Jiang, with a noble status and outstanding talents. Therefore, he has been loved by the elders in the association since he was a child.
Because of this, even though he is nearly thirty years old now, he still has some childishness in him, and even a bit of the arrogance of a genius.
He did have the capital to be proud. A duel master who was less than 30 years old was undoubtedly a genius no matter where he was!
However, no matter how talented one is, if compared with the person in front of him...
Chen Qian smiled and said, "You should be familiar with his name."
"I know him?"
Jiang Lantian was stunned. Is this true?
He was sure that he had never dealt with the young man in front of him, but Uncle Chen told him that he knew his name?
Puzzled, I was about to ask further questions when suddenly, a name flashed through my mind.
There was a hint of surprise in his tone as he asked, "Could he be Lin You?"
Chen Qian smiled but said nothing.
Jiang Lantian immediately understood what was going on, and when he turned to look at Lin You again, there was even more curiosity and scrutiny in his eyes.
He actually doesn't pay much attention to news from the outside world. What he cares more about is the progress of his own strength.
But even so, the name Lin You and some of his recent battle achievements still reached his ears.
In other words, even if you don’t know what Lin You looks like in Jiangcheng, his name is a household name.
This is the number one prodigy of the new generation, but he was surprisingly born in Jiangcheng!
Jiangcheng's major media and even the Jiangcheng Association will not miss this opportunity for publicity.
Amid the overwhelming news, Jiang Lantian, who had been oblivious to what was happening outside, also found out.
After learning about Lin You's existence, he developed a strong interest in him and made a special effort to dig deep into his deeds.
You don’t know until you see it. Once you see it, you will find that he is truly stunning.
In mid-March, he won the title of National Rookie of the Year by stepping on the Capital Rookie of the Year title.
After a few months, he immediately participated in this year's World Duel City Tournament and successfully entered the quarterfinals.
Jiang Lantian knew very well what this meant.
Such a speed of progress is terrifying!
At this moment, Jiang Lantian was still shaken, and Long Yu had already smiled and invited Lin You to take a seat.
Perhaps it was intentional, and he was specially placed next to Jiang Lantian.
After making the arrangements, Long Yu said with a smile, "Let Lin You attend this meeting as well. I don't think anyone would object. Coincidentally, he's also planning to go to the Divine Beast Island this time. Perhaps he'll stir up some trouble there soon, haha!"
"What the president said is absolutely right. With Lin You's ability and talent, he will be like a fish in water on the Divine Beast Island."
"Among his peers, there is definitely no one who can match him. I think even some dueling masters cannot match his competitiveness."
"With friend Lin You and Lan Tian here, our Jiangcheng Association will surely shine brightly on the Divine Beast Island this time. It's truly a blessing!"
The masters in the conference room spoke one after another, praising Lin You without reservation.
Although he knew in his heart that Lin You was not the main competitor of the Divine Beast Island this time, with his strength, ordinary duel masters were probably no match for him.
However, there are indeed quite a few duel masters who decided to go to the Divine Beast Island this time, and they are all top-level one-star masters.
No matter how strong Lin You is, the gap between him and them is still obvious at this stage.
At this moment, Lin You also politely bowed and said, "Thank you for your praise, seniors. I came to the Divine Beast Island this time just to try my luck, join in the fun, and also to gain some experience and experience with the seniors who came here."
"Very modest."
A master looked at Lin You with eyes full of praise and said: "At such a young age, you have achieved such achievements, and you also know how to avoid arrogance and impatience. Remarkable!"
Another master smiled and added, "That's a great attitude. Since you've decided to go to the Divine Beast Island, you must be familiar with some of the conditions within the secret realm. The competition for the ultimate treasures will surely be fierce, but the island has likely spawned quite a few excellent treasures. With your strength, you're sure to reap a rich harvest this time."
"Thank you very much for your kind words, Senior."
Lin You smiled and said, "Seniors, you probably have something important to discuss, right? Don't worry about me. If we continue chatting, I will have to bear the blame for this delay."
"What are you talking about? Don't be so formal."
Long Yu immediately said, "Since you have decided to join the Jiangcheng Association today, you are now a member of our Jiangcheng Association. And since you also happen to be participating in the battle for the secret treasure of Divine Beast Island, matters concerning you will naturally be discussed in this meeting."
Having said that, he didn't really forget the main topic. He turned to look at everyone and said, "Now let's talk about the specific arrangements of the Jiangcheng Association regarding the Divine Beast Island."
Everyone put away their smiles and listened attentively.
Soon, Long Yu continued, "Everyone knows about the rise in the energy level of Divine Beast Island. According to the Association's current assessment, the energy level of Divine Beast Island is likely to reach a high-risk level after the rise. Even if it just reaches the threshold of high-risk level, the changes it will bring are enormous."
"As you all know, normally, there aren't any restrictions on Master One-Star Duelists in high-risk secret realms. This means that any Master One-Star Duelists, no matter how many there are, won't be restricted by the rules of high-risk secret realms."
As soon as this was said, someone immediately asked after a gesture, "Doesn't this mean that the so-called twelve-person limit on Divine Beast Island will no longer exist? If so, most of us can go together?"
"That's right."
Long Yu nodded, and everyone was shocked.
They knew that some changes had occurred on the Divine Beast Island and that the energy level had risen, but they did not expect that it had risen to the level of a high-risk secret realm!
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
This is undoubtedly a good thing for Chinese duelists.
After all, under this rule, at least the situation where the treasures nurtured on the island are picked up by the secret monsters inside will no longer occur.
With such a large number of master duelists gathered together, the competitiveness created is not comparable to that of the four dominant beasts.
After allowing everyone to digest the information for a while, Long Yu continued, "Even so, the headquarters did intervene this time and still imposed some restrictions on the conditions for the duelists entering the country."
"The General Assembly will intervene?"
Everyone was very surprised. They didn't expect that someone would ask about such things.
It’s just a Divine Beast Island. Even if its level is raised, it is still just a high-risk secret realm.
Even if the circumstances are special and many unusual treasures are born, these treasures may not be able to enter the vision of the General Association no matter how much they are said.
Of course, some master one-star duelists in the General Association would not miss this opportunity.
According to the original situation, most of the twelve seats were occupied by duelists from the General Assembly.
The other few places were given to some duelists who were at the one-star master level, had outstanding combat capabilities, and had made great contributions to the association.
Long Yu explained, "It's not surprising. If the General Assembly hadn't imposed restrictions, the Divine Beast Island would have attracted too many Grandmaster Duelists. This would not only affect China's deployment of defenses at the key points of the various secret realms, but would also create an awkward situation on the Divine Beast Island where there are too many people and too little resources. Even if the Divine Beast Island could produce many treasures this time, it would waste the time of most people and even completely cut off the possibility for non-Grandmaster Duelists to benefit from it."
"That's true, but being able to have the General Manager personally give instructions makes this Divine Beast Island truly interesting."
Everyone understood, and someone quickly asked, "President Long, what are the specific arrangements for the Jiangcheng Association this time?"
Long Yu said directly, "We have obtained 5 quotas, which can admit up to five one-star masters. The local associations of the ten duel cities all have 5 quotas, the headquarters has 7, and the other branches have 3. Overall, this Divine Beast Island is much more lively than expected."
"Five places...that's more than enough."
"One of the spots will be given to Lan Tian, and the remaining four will be decided based on personal wishes and accumulated merits. How about that?"
Several people spoke up and offered their opinions, and Long Yu nodded slightly. "I think so too. After the level of Divine Beast Island rises, the competition is too fierce. Even with the restrictions in place, in a sense, it also concentrates the best players. In this situation, if you want to obtain the secret treasure, you need not only strength but also opportunity."

Long Yu and the others were still talking, but Jiang Lantian was a little absent-minded. His attention was focused on Lin You. He whispered quietly, "Lin You, if you want to go to the Divine Beast Island, just follow me. I'm sure I can help you get a lot of benefits."
Lin You smiled and said in a voice transmission, "Thank you very much, but the situation will be unpredictable, and I may not be able to act with you, brother."
"Why?"
Jiang Lantian was puzzled, but then he thought of something and asked, "Did someone invite you in advance?"
"I guess so."
"That's fine."
Jiang Lantian said nonchalantly, "It's nothing more than bringing one more person. Just let that guy come along. Don't worry, with me here, our team will be extremely competitive. Brother, I can tell you a thing or two. My strength is basically unbeatable among the one-star masters. I mean, I'm talking about the entire dueling world!"
"sharp."
Lin You praised him, then said, "Then I will give my companion some advice. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."
"It will be pleasant, of course it will be pleasant!"
Jiang Lantian said as a matter of course: "With me here, the strength is absolutely guaranteed. And anyone who can be your companion, Lin You, is most likely also a genius, but that's not important. What's important is that they can act together with you, and that's enough!"
“…”
Lin You almost choked. Why did this sound wrong?
Fortunately, Jiang Lantian immediately added: "I've heard about your deeds. It's no exaggeration to say that you are simply too strong. In my opinion, your talent is definitely not inferior to Ye Shen. He is my idol in dueling. In other words, if you were born earlier, maybe you would be my idol!"
Then he said cheerfully, "So it's great to be able to act together with you!"
Seeing the other party's silly smile, Lin You sweated slightly. It turned out that this guy was also a fan?
But it doesn’t matter. What Lin You is thinking about now is not the matter of the Divine Beast Island, but to enter the Blood Source Gate of the Jiangcheng Association as soon as possible to practice.
Lin You is now not short of duel merits, and due to the increase in duel authority, he has two more free hunting opportunities.
7 times!
This is the hunting benefit that comes with the A- permission.
Thinking about this matter for a long time, Long Yu finally explained everything. The discussion among everyone also came to a conclusion and the meeting was declared over.
After the meeting, many duel masters specifically greeted Lin You before leaving.
Even though Lin You has just joined the Jiangcheng Association, in everyone's eyes, he is Jinlin!
Even the Jiangcheng Association is just a drop in the ocean to him.
The golden fish is definitely not something that can be kept in a pond!
I'm afraid that in just a few years, he will be eligible to join the Duelist Association and report to the headquarters in the imperial capital.
The others left, but Long Yu stayed behind and took the initiative to guide Lin You in joining the club.
In addition, Jiang Lantian did not leave either.
Long Yu did not forget to introduce Lin You: "This is Jiang Lantian, Chairman Jiang's son."
"Uncle Long, why are you bringing this up?"
Jiang Lantian couldn't help but interject, "The point is, my strength is unmatched by the Master's one-star opponent. You have to testify for me."
Long Yu smiled and said, "He is strong, but looking at the dueling world, he still has some rivals."
"Uncle Long!"
Jiang Lantian seemed dissatisfied with this statement, but before he could say anything more, Long Yu looked at Lin You and changed the subject, "Lin You, you suddenly came to the Jiangcheng Association this time. I think you need something, right?"
Lin You was not polite and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Uncle Long, I plan to go to the Blood Source Gate first."
"I see."
Long Yu didn't ask any further questions and quickly said, "Then there's no time to lose. I'll take you there now. I've already completed the membership procedures for you. Since you're going to use the Blood Gate, you should hurry up and improve yourself before departure."
"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Long."
"It's just a small matter."
As the two were talking, Jiang Lantian suddenly said, "Blood Origin Gate... I haven't been there for a while. It's a nice place, but a bit expensive. Lin You, does it put a lot of pressure on you to spend money? If it's not enough, I can help you a little."
Lin You smiled and said, "I appreciate Brother Jiang's kindness, but I'm still relatively well-off right now. Coincidentally, my duel privileges have been upgraded, and I have two free hunts available."
"That's a good thing."
Jiang Lantian smiled and said, "With your talent, perhaps your current duel authority has a chance to be upgraded to B-. If you reach B-, you will have three free hunting opportunities every year..."
As he spoke, he suddenly realized something and widened his eyes slightly. "Oh right, you just said you had two free kills. You might have used one before. Could it be that you have reached B-level authority?"
“This one probably hasn’t happened yet.”
Long Yu couldn't help but say, "Increasing duel authority is very difficult. Of course, with Xiaoyou's talent and ability, it won't take too long to reach this level of authority. Perhaps less than a year will be enough. But for now, two free hunting opportunities should be C-level authority."
Even if it is C-level, it is actually amazing enough for a duelist of Lin You's age.
Perhaps less than fifty people have this ability.
It doesn't sound too rare, but in fact, everyone's distance from B- is completely different.
Lin You must be the one who is closest!
Although Long Yu had an explanation, Jiang Lantian still asked curiously, "So, Lin You, what level of authority do you have now? Do you mind telling me?"
Lin You also replied with a simple laugh:
"Just arrived at A-."
