"Welcome the three players representing the southern region. Our hotel has prepared a sumptuous dinner for the three of them. Please come with me."
When Lin Ran and the other three entered the hotel and were about to go upstairs, a uniformed male waiter came out and spoke to them very respectfully.
"Oh? It seems that the treatment this time is much better than last time, haha!" Situ Feng said with a smile.
"I'm really hungry after coming all the way. Come on, let's go eat first."
Then, under the guidance of the waiter, Lin Ran and the others entered a luxurious box.
This box is located in the lobby on the first floor. It is usually closed and is only used to receive some important guests.
In the center of the box was a large round table filled with various dishes, all of which were still hot.
"You're here too!"
Meng Zhishan arrived at the hotel ahead of Lin Ran and the others. After seeing Lin Ran and the others come in, she said in surprise.
"Yeah, just arrived."
Lin Ran responded with a smile, then looked at the positions of the round table and found that there were six positions in total?
"Aren't there five of us? How come there are six positions?" Su Xiao also noticed that there was one more position and said in surprise.
"I don't know, maybe someone else is coming, and they probably want to explain something." Meng Zhishan explained.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter where it is. Let's eat as soon as we arrive first." Situ Feng didn't care so much. He just found a seat and sat down, and started eating.
Then the other three people sat down one after another and started using their chopsticks.
...
After half an hour, there was a sound of footsteps at the door.
Under the guidance of the waiter, a middle-aged man walked into the box with a young man.
"City Lord Yao!"
When they saw that the middle-aged man who came in was Yao Feng, they all stood up immediately and said respectfully.
"Haha, please sit down, no need to be polite." Yao Feng smiled at them and said.
The young man behind him is Yao Feng's son, Yao Yucheng.
After seeing Lin Ran and others, he ran over excitedly and sat down.
"I wonder why there is an extra position. Now it seems that it is prepared for City Lord Yao."
Only then did Lin Ran understand why there was an extra seat. It was obvious that Yao Feng was asked to come in person. There must be something important to announce.
The other people also stopped using their chopsticks immediately and looked at Yao Feng seriously.
"City Lord Yao, do you have something to announce?" Situ Feng asked quickly.
Yao Feng nodded slightly, walked to his son's side, and sat down.
"It's about the Beast Tamer Alliance Competition." Yao Feng explained.
"Oh? Could it be that there are some changes in the rules?" Lin Ran said.
After all, this year's Beast Tamer League competition is different from previous ones in that it is held in advance.
In the third round, the rules were also changed, so it is very likely that the final rules will also be changed.
"Yes, there are indeed changes in the rules." Yao Feng nodded.
"I'll go, why did you change the rules again? Our class is really miserable this time." Situ Feng immediately complained.
"Yeah, I'm really unlucky." Meng Zhishan also sighed helplessly.
"The main rules have not changed, only one additional restriction has been added." Yao Feng said quickly when he saw the crowd's reaction.
"Restrictions? Is it possible to restrict alien beasts? Or restrict the trainer himself?" Lin Ran frowned slightly and said.
"It's not about restricting the beasts. Just like in the past, the beasts can be used at will, as long as the trainer can control them."
"And this added restriction stipulates that all contestants participating in the finals are not allowed to use divine weapons!"
"What!"
After hearing this restriction, everyone was shocked and all looked at Lin Ran.
You must know that Lin Ran, in addition to being very powerful with strange beasts, also possesses many powerful divine weapons.
For example, the defensive divine weapon on his body can withstand attacks, and the power of the Rusty Sword cannot be underestimated. The most terrifying thing is the Seven Phoenix Feather Fan.
Lin Ran was able to defeat Murong Ling, and it can be said that the Seven Phoenix Feather Fan was indispensable.
As long as he relies on these three divine weapons, Lin Ran can be almost invincible, but now the use of divine weapons is prohibited?
"No, why are you suddenly banned from using divine weapons? This is too confusing."
"Could it be that those guys on the competition side saw that Lin Ran's divine weapon was too powerful, and in order to protect other contestants, they deliberately created such a restriction?"
Situ Feng said with an unhappy expression.
"It shouldn't be possible. I'm just a player in the southern region. There are so many contestants. As for changing the rules for me?" Lin Ran said mockingly.
"What's going on, City Lord Yao?" Su Lian asked quickly.
"Actually, it's none of Lin Ran's business."
"The main reason is that except for our southern region, the other four regions seem to have a lot of talented players, and each one is stronger than the last. The typical one is the northern region. In the third round, there were even players. Beaten to death.”
"In the central region, which is the most prosperous, there are also many players who cannot afford serious injuries. That is to say, only the western region is calmer and does not cause too much trouble."
"The reason for all this is that the contestants used very powerful divine weapons during the competition, and some even used the divine weapons to activate ancient secret techniques. The dead contestant in the northern region was killed in Ancient secrets."
"The referee at the time had no time to react, and the result was a tragedy."
"In addition, Wan Qingfeng, the chairman in charge of our southern regional competition, also explained the situation in the southern region when he returned, especially Lin Ran's seven-color feather fan, which is too powerful."
"So in order to prevent such a tragedy from happening again, the competition team added this rule, which stipulates that contestants are not allowed to use any divine weapon, whether it is damaged or not."
Yao Feng quickly explained the truth to Lin Ran and the others.
"I'll go, I thought the commotion in our southern region was already huge, but now it seems like it's not worth mentioning at all."
"There are actually players dying. That northern region is really outrageous."
After hearing what happened in several other areas, everyone's faces were very shocked.
"Yes, it is true that the main reason is because of the accident that happened in the northern region, but you don't need to worry too much. After all, it mainly depends on the strength of the alien beasts. Divine weapons are just auxiliary."
"After all, divine weapons cannot be used. There are no restrictions on ordinary weapons and armors with the power of stars. You can still use them at will."
Yao Feng said immediately when he saw everyone's worried expressions.
