    Zhao Yao immediately tapped on it and was weed by a flood of replies. Zhao Yao’s eyes instantly scanned the entire content and managed to elicit a few answers.


    Firstly, allpeting cat kings were given one phone each. This super phone was supposedly created by the Cat King of the North. It could simply be recharged by sunning it. The sr energy absorbed would be sufficient for an entire day of usage. The phone can even be used to surf the but cannot be used for calling and texting.


    “This is some weird technology,” Zhao Yao’s eyes began scrutinizing the phone from top to bottom but failed to find an opening slot. The entire phone was simply a homogenous block. Zhao Yao whispered to himself, “A superphone created by the Cat King of the North? Is this the same as my super cat rice? Is this phone created with the help of a superpower?”


    Secondly, the participants were made up of a pair of human and cat. As per mentioned previously, the pairprised of the apostle and his supercat. This unit would represent their district in thepetition.


    Suddenly, the phone’s screen turned pitch ck. Just when Zhao Yao thought that this pirated phone had spoilt, a ck and white tabby appeared in a video. The tabby stared curiously at the camera before whipping out an object and said, “Have a break, have a Northern Cat tidbit, supercat’s trusted snacks. This year’s Jiangmen City cat kingpetition is proudly brought to you by Northern Cat tidbit.”


    This stupid tabby repeated that same old line for at least three times before disappearing. Once again, the phone’s screen had reflected the contents of the forum. Zhao Yao stared dumbfoundedly at the phone and muttered, “That’s a god d*mn advertisement. It’s a f*cking advertisement and I can’t even skip it. Neither can I pause it. What the f*ck.”


    Footages of the poorly shot advertisement continued to flood Zhao Yao’s mind. An exasperated expression appeared on Zhao Yao’s face as he wandered, “Don’t tell me that silly looking cat is actually the Cat King of the North.”


    Zhao Yao shook his head violently in an attempt to get rid of the images in his head as he returned to the forum.


    Thirdly, this Cat Kingpetition was divided into three stages – two rounds of elimination followed by the Finals. The first round of elimination wouldmence this month. All contestants would gather in the battleground where the bulk of the contestants will be eliminated, leaving the 32 contenders.


    The remaining 32 contenders would participate in the next round of elimination. The 8 contenders remaining at the end would be the finalists for thispetition.


    “Even though it states that there are two rounds of elimination followed by a third, final round, nothing specific is being mentioned at all. There’s practically no rules or anything at all.” Zhao Yao’s forehead creased together as his eyes gravitated downwards.


    Fourthly, the 32 contenders which sessfully advanced through the first stage would receive a bag of premium Northern Cat Tidbits and a signed autography by the Cat King of the North.


    Zhao Yao stared in disbelief andmented, “Who would even want that piece of trash?”


    However, the finalist who got passed the second round of elimination would be rewarded with a cash prize of RMB 10,000.


    Definitely, the best was saved for thest. The top three contenders would leave thispetition with RMB 200,000, RMB 1,000,000, and RMB 3,000,000 respectively.


    These were not the only prize up for grabs for the top three contenders. They could even choose one prize out of the three which included a supercat, a super equipment handcrafted by the Cat King of the North, or a property in Jiangmen City worth over RMB 20,000,000.


    Naturally, the champion of thispetition would be awarded the coveted first pick. The first runner-up would have a choice between the two remaining options. The second-runner up would simply receive the remaining prize up for grabs.


    The remaining thread covered on the choice of supercat which the winner could select from and the list of super equipment that Cat King of the North had kindly sponsored.


    “Hmph, the supercats that are used as prizes are the ones caught by Cat King of the North. They were uwful cats that were caught formitting some sort of crime. The winner can select any cat amongst them?” Zhao Yao’s eyes skimmed across the list of cats which he could possibly win. There were more than ten supercats with powers ranging from fire, water to even farting.


    Zhao Yao’s eyes wandered from the description of one cat to another, without anything that really caught his attention. Suddenly, his eyes froze when he saw this cat.


    Supercat ‘Red Packet’ had the power of good fortunes and would help improve one’s fortunes and ie. It was captured by the Cat King of the North for getting embroiled in a tel fraud, extortion, and even unlicensed money lending.


    Zhao Yao’s heart started racing as it pounded against his chest. He stared at the two words, Red Packet, and muttered, “This is one lucky cat!” His eyes beamed with excitement as he announced, “I must win this cat.”


    He continued skimming through the remaining supercats and the super equipment sponsored by Cat King of the North. The prizes were simply bizarre and included items such as this superphone. There was even a hopter taken directly from the Doraemon series. Zhao Yao could not help but wiped his saliva when he noticed it.


    “Good stuff, there is simply too much good stuff.”


    The phone’s screen turned pitch dark again while Zhao Yao was reveling in excitement. Zhao Yao already had an ominous feeling as to what was about to happen.


    As expected, the ck and white tabby returned to the screen again. This time around, he even donned a full body armor with a pair of boxing gloves.


    “Hi everyone, I am the Cat King of the North. Just now, I was busy ying Cat God Legend when I suddenly won a stupid ring which I sold for RMB 200,000. What are you waiting for? Join me in Cat God Legend now!”


    A pop-up button appeared with the words ‘Tap me to earn money” written on it. Zhao Yao had to wait for a total of 30 seconds before the advertisement finally disappeared.


    “This stupid phone. What kind of user experience is this? How much time do I have to spend watching these idiotic ads?” Zhao Yao suppressed the raging anger bursting in his body as he continued reading on.


    Finally, it talked about the property that awaited the champions. It was a premier condominium lying right smack in the heart of the city. With a floor area exceeding 100 square meters, its prize alone had already exceeded RMB 20,000,000. Furthermore, it was fully furnished with designer furniture which included modern gym equipment,rge-screen LCD TV, hydro-massage tubs, and all kinds of smart furniture. It looked like a scene directly taken from a show. Zhao Yao’s lips curled into a smile just thinking about it.


    Zhao Yao had grown extremely agitated after looking through the prizes, “D*mn it, these prizes are for real!” His eyes shot out beams of excitement and he could not wait to call the prizes his own.


    After much deliberation, he still could not get his eyes off of ‘Red Packet’. Its power totally fitted Zhao Yao. With its power to bring in fortune, Zhao Yao could increase the earnings of the café while bagging in more experience points.


    Zhao Yao could literally feel his heart pounding against his chest as he continued reading about thepetition. Initially, he was only somewhat curious about it. Now, he had his eyes set on the championship title, nothing less than that.


    “Hmph, since I’m participating with Matcha, I should upgrade himter.” mes of determination erupted from Zhao Yao’s eyes.


    Matcha suddenly raised his head to see Zhao Yao acting so animatedly, “What’s wrong with him?”


    However, unbeknownst to Zhao Yao, the top prizes were simply used to entice apostles like him. The government had no ns to actually give them out.


    In their master n, Yue Shan was bound to win thepetition. He would then rule the city alongside the four cat kings. With the help of the phones, they could gradually register all supercats living in Jiangmen City into the official database, allowing them to better manage this group of unique cats.
