Chapter 93: Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s Debut!!
“Boom!!!!!”
The world shook as a devastating hurricane erupted, the wind so powerful that it was impossible to open your eyes. The Qingyao Sea envoy, protected only by a High-Tier pet beast, couldn’t even withstand the shockwave, tumbling backward for hundreds of meters. All the other trial participants hastily summoned their Commander-Tier pet beasts to shield themselves from the blast.
At the same time, Tian Quan’s Bing Zhuyu stared at the white figure within the hurricane, its eyes wide with disbelief.
It wasn’t the Moon-Embracing Jade Hammer!?
How was that possible…!!!
It had fought against that creature a month ago, it couldn’t possibly forget its scent.
Although the Moon-Embracing Jade Hammer’s aura was still familiar, its essence had completely transformed. Except for its life crystal, nothing about it resembled its previous form.
And now…Bing Zhuyu couldn’t even see through the hurricane…
The Pet Essence around the hurricane, propelled by the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s powerful throws, was completely chaotic.
Just how much stronger had it become in this short time!!!
At this moment, standing before Lian Xing, was a miniature white Moonlight Rabbit, less than two meters tall, its fur and outline significantly smaller. The shape of its ears remained the same, but a soft, white band now floated behind its shoulders.
Its arms, shorter than its ears, were bound by white shackles, and its eyes were covered by a white blindfold, as if its master, Lian Xing, had some unique fetishes…
This was…
The Heaven-Gracing Curtain, level 114, a pseudo Royal-Tier pet beast, having undergone perfect evolution, the one that had defeated the Extreme Cold Detonation · Ice King twice and even thrown the legendary Calamity Sun!!!
During this month of free time, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain hadn’t been slacking off. Consuming Commander-Tier life crystals every day, studying the combat styles of other throwing-type Biological Species, learning new bloodline combat skills, it had been constantly growing stronger.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that if the current Heaven-Gracing Curtain and the Red Prison Palace Master teamed up against the Extreme Cold Detonation again…
The Extreme Cold Detonation might not even have a chance to fight back.
“Whoosh!!!!!”
In the next second, following Lian Xing’s command…
The flesh at the base of the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s ears ruptured, and six new ears, like fleshy tumors, emerged, forming six alien appendages hidden beneath its white cloak. If Silver Dragon could see through the storm, she would recognize these new Six Ears.
After breaking through to Commander-Tier, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s mastery of the Six Ears combat skill had increased, it could even mimic the throwing characteristics of peak Commander-Tier pet beasts…
This was…
The World-Shattering White Robe’s ability!!!
However, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s current power was far beyond what the World-Shattering White Robe could have imagined.
Even a single ear could easily crush the World-Shattering White Robe, let alone its current, full-power Six Ears form…
At this moment, as all nine of the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s throwing appendages swung downwards, the airflow within the hurricane seemed to stop…
[Six Ears]
[Combo X012345678]
[Power Throw X9]
[Flurry X9]
[Sand Toss (Gold) X9]
[Raging Wind (Dark Gold) X9]
“Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The heavens collapsed, the earth cracked.
Under everyone’s gaze, a deafening roar echoed as a pure white tornado ripped through the area where the mechanical conch stood. Then, the ground beneath them began to collapse, dragging down a large section of the Qingyao Sea region.
At this moment, even those with Commander-Tier pet beasts couldn’t withstand the force, one after another being blown away. Only the Heavenly Windless Clothes, being a Wind Elemental Species, remained unharmed. Even Tian Quan, her expression grim, was forced to use the Sea-Dried Bright Moon’s power to defend herself.
“How is this possible…”
“This power…it’s even stronger than the Extreme Cold Detonation · Ice King without its Red Quality combat skill…”
“What did this Moon Rabbit do during this time…!!!” the Sea-Dried Bright Moon’s incredulous voice echoed in Tian Quan’s mind, her shock growing.
What was going on? A single Moonlight Rabbit possessing the power of a Royal-Tier pet beast!?
Just a month ago, Lian Xing had needed all three of her pet beasts to even compare to a Royal-Tier pet beast…!!
And what was even more terrifying…
She was only 15 years old!!
“…”
“…”
“Whoosh——!!!”
Half a minute later, as the wind subsided, the few trial participants who hadn’t been blown away could finally see clearly. Under their shocked gazes, only a golden-haired girl with buns, dressed in knee-high stockings, remained standing before the mechanical conch. No other pet beast was present.
The score!?
What was the score!!?
At this moment, as everyone recovered from their shock, they turned to look at the number displayed on the mechanical conch.
And then, without exception, including Tian Quan and Silver Dragon, all the trial participants were dumbfounded.
A deathly silence lasted for a full three minutes.
Just then, the Qingyao Sea envoy, her face covered in dirt, finally returned, her teeth gritted, her expression furious.
“That damned brat abusing her power, attacking an envoy!!”
“Don’t get too cocky! Although the highest score this year was only 87 points, the current guardian of Qingyao Sea scored 92 points eight years ago! There’s always someone stronger! The great Qingyao Sea, an 8th-level region, won’t tolerate your arrogance!!!” Riding her trembling High-Tier Biological Species pet beast, the Qingyao Sea envoy muttered to herself, looking at the mechanical conch’s score display nervously.
Even as a High-Tier Beast Tamer, she could clearly sense the terrifying power of Lian Xing’s attack.
Their number one spot…it was definitely gone…
But even so, Qingyao Sea hadn’t lost. Their guardian…she would never lose to a mere village girl from a 10th-level region!!!
However, as the woman in black, clinging to this self-comforting thought, looked at the mechanical conch, her disdainful expression froze, replaced by disbelief.
After a long while, the red-haired girl in the cheongsam from Chijin Province couldn’t help but ask, “Envoy…you said…”
“This was a device created by a Monarch-Tier pet beast…right?”
“…”
“…”
At this moment, under everyone’s shocked gazes…
There was no score…
The mechanical conch’s core had been obliterated, only a few sparking fragments remained.
Seeing this, the Qingyao Sea envoy was dumbfounded.
This situation…
Not even she, a mere High-Tier envoy, let alone the guardian of Qingyao Sea, could have anticipated this.
How the hell were they supposed to calculate this? How much had she exceeded 100 points…?
Qingyao Sea, Beast Tamer Association Headquarters.
A woman with long, black hair, dressed in a light blue dress, lay leisurely on a rocking chair, sipping tea as she casually observed the data from the mechanical conches displayed on a large screen. In fact, there were five mechanical conches, like the one Lian Xing had encountered, placed at the five entrances of Qingyao Sea. And the airship they had boarded had only covered one-fifth of the Qingyao Sea region’s subordinate territories.
There were five testing locations in total, covering over a hundred 9th-level regions.
At this moment, looking at the scores on the screen, all in the forties and fifties, the guardian of Qingyao Sea remained silent. Instead, a black-haired girl with red eyes and curly hair chuckled.
“Sister, let’s go have afternoon tea. Don’t waste your time on these villagers from the subordinate regions…”
“There are only five spots. Those 9th-level region trial participants never had a chance.” The girl, the champion of Qingyao Sea’s league this year, spoke with a sense of superiority…
However, hearing this, the guardian of Qingyao Sea frowned, then said coldly, “Have you forgotten who was eliminated in the first round of the official assessment last year?”
“Don’t you think those 6th-level region Beast Tamers also consider us villagers…?”
“…”
“…”
“My lord, that’s different! There were even Royal-Tier Beast Tamers among the 6th-level region participants! No matter how hard we try, we, as Commander-Tier Beast Tamers, can’t defeat a Royal-Tier pet beast~~~”
“I don’t understand what the Great Lord Biluo is thinking. It even rejected those Royal-Tier Beast Tamers under the age of 20. Doesn’t it have any standards…?” the girl with curly hair said, trying to justify herself.
Commander-Tier Beast Tamers giving up because they couldn’t defeat Royal-Tier pet beasts…? Hearing this, the guardian of Qingyao Sea shook her head silently.
Perhaps she had also thought this way in the past.
However, during her recent trip to Baiyue Province, she had personally watched the recordings of the incident. If a Commander-Tier pet beast losing to a Royal-Tier one was considered…normal…then what about a High-Tier Beast Tamer defeating a Royal-Tier pet beast…?
Moon Rabbit, Lian Xing…
The possessor of Star Sand, one of the 72 Legends.
The Legend Beast Tamer who had single-handedly alerted the Association’s higher-ups, forcing Millennium Marquis to personally suppress the news.
A month ago, even she had been forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement regarding Star Sand.
As for the spectators…
Well, they didn’t have access to other regions anyway.
So, currently, besides her and Shuitianliang, no one outside of Baiyue Province knew about Star Sand’s appearance…
“Ding!”
Suddenly, a high-score notification popped up on the screen, and both of them looked over in surprise.
[82 points — Silver Dragon of Baiyue Province]
“Wait, Baiyue Province?”
“Sister, isn’t that the 10th-level region you went to rescue…?” the girl with curly hair asked, her voice filled with disbelief.
This score had already bumped one of the Qingyao Sea participants out of the qualifying spots. Of course, this wasn’t the final test. It only represented the trial participants’ single pet attack power, not their overall strength in Unlimited mode.
But before the black-haired woman could respond, another high-score notification appeared.
[85 points — Tian Quan of Baiyue Province]
“…”
“…”
“85 points???” Seeing this score, the girl with curly hair stood up from her seat in shock.
If the people from the 9th-level regions were considered villagers , then in her mind, those from the 10th-level regions were primitive people who didn’t even wear clothes.
What was going on? How could a trial participant with comparable strength to her appear in a backward 10th-level region!?
At this moment, while the girl with curly hair was simply surprised, the guardian of Qingyao Sea was tense…
Because based on the order of appearance, the next one would be Moon Rabbit!!!
Actually, she had secretly tested herself again a year ago, achieving a score of 98 points, indicating that she hadn’t officially reached the Royal-Tier realm yet.
To become a Royal-Tier Beast Tamer, one had to awaken a Royal-Tier characteristic.
But many Beast Tamers’ main battle pet beasts couldn’t even awaken a Royal-Tier characteristic after reaching level 200, not even that Cycle of Calamity member, possessing high levels and powerful combat skills but unable to utilize them fully.
What about Moon Rabbit…?
Since Moon Rabbit could already defeat a Royal-Tier pet beast, was it possible for her to score even higher than her 98 points?
No, it shouldn’t be possible in single pet deployment. Star Sand wasn’t a purely offensive type…
“Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!”
In the next second, a terrifying sound, like a nuclear explosion, echoed from one of the borders of Qingyao Sea. The entire Qingyao Sea region shook violently, countless Beast Tamers and wild pet beasts collapsing to the ground.
Even the girl with curly hair stumbled and fell.
The guardian of Qingyao Sea stared at the data on the screen.
However…
The earth-shattering noise continued for half a minute, but no score appeared on the mechanical conch.
Not even Moon Rabbit’s name was recorded.
What was going on!?
Then, something strange happened.
Under the incredulous gazes of the girl with curly hair and the Qingyao Sea president, all the scores on the mechanical conch vanished.
What the…?
Could the Great Lord Biluo’s creation…malfunction…?
Soon, an urgent call came in.
“My lord, that trial participant from Baiyue Province, she’s so arrogant! She called all the Beast Tamers in Qingyao Sea “trash” and even destroyed the mechanical conch! How can the Great Lord Biluo tolerate this? We have to make her pay!!!”
“…”
“…”
“Destroyed…?” the Qingyao Sea president muttered in disbelief, hearing the panicked voice on the other end of the line.
A cold sweat ran down her back.
So that was it…
There had been cases of the mechanical conch being destroyed before.
It wasn’t a malfunction, but rather…an indication that the score was far beyond 100 points.
This meant, even she, a Royal-Tier Beast Tamer, wasn’t a match for Moon Rabbit now?
Amidst a sea of clouds…
Standing in the mist-shrouded, mysterious space, Lian Xing scratched her head, feeling a bit…annoyed. She hadn’t expected to be transported back to the weekly…white deer space…right after destroying the mechanical conch.
This meant…
To the outside world…
She would look like a…spaced-out idiot…!?
As Lian Xing grumbled inwardly, the mist dissipated, revealing the other four hybrid girls, who greeted her casually. They had met four times during this period and were relatively familiar with each other now.
Just then, the bride deer in the white wedding dress also emerged from the mist, its expression unusually cheerful.
“Children, we meet again. I have a surprise for you today~~~”
“My daughter has just weaned, so she can go out and explore with you. Do you know what this means…?”
“…”
“…”
As the white deer finished speaking, except for Lian Xing and the fishtailed girl who had been favored by Rainwater, the expressions of the other three girls turned to shock.
What? They could take Little Moonwalker out of this world!?
Wouldn’t that mean the Legendary aura on them would become even stronger?
Perhaps they could even attract other passing Legends for courtship…!!
And there was a high chance of alerting the Legends who had marked them before, causing Rainwater and the other 72 Legends to investigate…!!!
Under their bewildered gazes, the deer mother retched a few times, then slowly vomited out a small fawn. The wet, white fawn was incredibly cute, surrounded by a layer of white flames, like a celestial deer…
This was…
One of the kings among the 72 Legends…
The High-Tier Elemental Species, Moonwalker!!!
At this moment, Little Moonwalker hid behind its mother’s slender hind legs, peeking out timidly, its eyes nervously fixed on the five hybrid girls.
This was the first time Lian Xing and the others had seen Little Moonwalker.
Honestly, being able to take it away for a week wasn’t that significant. It wouldn’t suddenly fall in love with them in just a week. It was essentially just babysitting.
However…
If they could possess Moonwalker for a week, perhaps they could use it to trick their fourth pet beast.
Lian Xing pondered.
