    Chapter 134: Calamity Sun’s Gaze!!!

    Calamity Sun (Èrì), the ominous being that, according to legend, shot down the sun. Wherever it descended, everything would turn to ash. It was a pet beast that reveled in destruction and chaos.

    This still-immature Calamity Sun was no different. It constantly tempted throwing-type pet beasts to throw it with all their might, allowing it to travel between regions, crushing everything in its path, reveling in the destruction.

    However, besides Monarch-Tier pet beasts, few Royal-Tier pet beasts could withstand a full-powered throw. The price of forcibly using Calamity Sun was…their lives…

    [Let’s play a game.]

    [See how far you can throw me!!]

    “Alright, but not now~~” As the golden-haired girl’s words echoed, Calamity Sun, without a chance to react, was swallowed whole by the Heaven-Gracing Curtain.

    Calamity Sun couldn’t possibly form a contract with the Commander-Tier Heaven-Gracing Curtain, so Lian Xing didn’t even bother trying. Instead of wasting her breath, she simply swallowed it, planning to bring it to the competition stage and let it face that Ancient Juvenile Species. Then, even if it didn’t want to, it would have to contribute…

    Meanwhile, seeing this horrifying scene, the Great Lord Biluo’s eye twitched, and it asked in disbelief, “So it was you… No, this isn’t the time for that…”

    “Are you planning to bring Calamity Sun to the league stage and have it fight against that Ancient Juvenile Species?”

    “Yes, isn’t that your wish~~?” Lian Xing replied with a smile.

    She had been brought to the league by the Great Lord Biluo.

    And it was the Great Lord Biluo who had asked her to defeat that Ancient Juvenile Species.

    Having seen that thing with her own eyes, there was no turning back.

    “Actually…”

    “I…”

    “No, never mind. This is fine~~~” the Great Lord Biluo said hesitantly, then stopped, its expression conflicted.

    It seemed Lian Xing hadn’t noticed that the starlight in her eyes was intensifying, like a child who had found its favorite toy. Sensing Lian Xing’s unprecedented excitement, the Great Lord Biluo’s heart wavered.

    If it were her…

    Perhaps…she could actually do it!!

    “So, is there anything else I can do for you?”

    Facing the Great Lord Biluo’s serious question, Lian Xing lowered her eyes, pondering for a moment, then looked up and smiled, “Let me think…you’ll be the commentator for the final match, right?”

    “In that case…”

    “Don’t blink~~~” With that, Lian Xing patted the Great Lord Biluo’s shoulder and turned to leave, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain following closely behind.

    Meanwhile, watching the golden-haired girl’s retreating figure, the green-haired woman with the conch shell, her initially stunned expression softening into a look of hope. She looked down at her feet, which were gradually becoming transparent.

    “Yes, I won’t blink.”

    “No matter what happens, I’ll see it through to the end…”



    A few days later…

    2nd-level region, Beast Tamer Alliance, “I’ll Measure Your Code” team resting room.

    Two hours remained until the final match of the season.

    As the golden-haired girl with buns finished speaking, a heavy silence fell over the resting room, the team members’ expressions filled with disbelief.

    “Moon Rabbit, are you serious…?” Captain Zi Ye asked, her voice trembling slightly, trying to maintain her composure.

    “Yes, I’m not joking…”

    “In fact, this is what I came here for,” Lian Xing replied seriously, nodding.

    At this moment, the “Measure Your Code” team was just one step away from the top five. As long as the Mist Colt participated in the 4v4 Hell Survival, they could easily qualify. But Lian Xing had made an unexpected decision.

    At this crucial moment, she wanted to take all five spots in the 5v5 Siege Battle!!!

    “All five spots? Not even one less?”

    “Yes, not one less!!!”

    “Little Moon Rabbit, what are you thinking? You’ve seen that thing from the Dead Ash team, right? It’s not on a level we can even comprehend…!!!” Black Magpie said anxiously, then suddenly realized something.

    Moon Rabbit had defeated Moon Princess, Chiyu, and Shining Girls to get here.

    She must be the one who understood the true terror of Dead Ash’s Ancient Juvenile Species the most.

    If they lost with their strongest lineup in a 5v1 gang fight, the backlash… she would suffer would be far greater than their regret of not reaching the top five.

    “Don’t worry, I won’t lose~~~” However, facing their worried expressions, Lian Xing simply smiled languidly, lying on the sofa.

    “No, Little Moon Rabbit, you should reconsider after watching the Dead Ash team’s recordings. I still think—” Little Sheep started to say, but Captain Zi Ye stopped her, placing a hand on her shoulder. “It’s fine, let Moon Rabbit do it.”

    “She must have a plan.”

    “No Beast Tamer would jeopardize their pet beast’s evolution path.” Looking at the nonchalant golden-haired girl, Captain Zi Ye said seriously, her eyes narrowed.

    She had a feeling that Moon Rabbit’s relaxed demeanor wasn’t due to blind confidence or some unrealistic expectations for her lineup.

    She had simply risked everything, burning all her bridges…

    If they lost, they would lose together. They could always start over…

    But if they won…then every one of her pet beasts would become a legendary being that had defeated an Ancient Species’ bloodline…

    Victory was their only option!!!

    “But we can’t rely solely on Moon Rabbit. We should try to get another 3 points from the other rounds.”

    “They’ll probably assume that Moon Rabbit will use all her main pet beasts in the 4v4 to secure our qualification, so they’ll likely abandon the 4v4 Hell Survival. That’s our best chance!!!”

    “We still have two hours to prepare. This is the final match of the season. Go check on your pet beasts, feed them, get some rest. Meeting adjourned~~~~” As Captain Zi Ye finished speaking, the team members reluctantly left the resting room.

    Little Sheep, her expression still bewildered, couldn’t shake her doubts.

    Although it made sense…

    Challenging that Ancient Juvenile Species. The chances of winning were too slim.

    Even the outside world was paying attention to Dead Ash, considering that Ancient Juvenile Species a threat on par with Tears Maiden.

    Could Moon Rabbit really win…?

    After everyone left, Lian Xing lay on the sofa, resting.

    Gradually, a dense mist enveloped her.

    When she opened her eyes again, she was in the familiar, cloud-filled space.

    “Little Fly, can you show me what Ephemeral’s true form looks like?”

    “By the way, when did you actually contract with Ephemeral? It was so sudden…the news just exploded. It was exciting~~~”

    “I thought it would be the Second Princess of Youyou Leize who would contract with Libra first. I didn’t expect Ephemeral, which had been dormant for almost ten thousand years, to reappear… It’s unbelievable~~~”

    Inside the white deer space, Thunder Fly’s identity as the Third Princess had been exposed. Not only the armless, black-haired girl and the white-haired beast girl, but even Tears Maiden couldn’t help but approach, observing the pink halo in Thunder Fly’s hand up close.

    Tears Maiden was the second recipient of Rainwater’s gaze, able to temporarily borrow its power, but she wasn’t a true Legend Beast Tamer.

    So, Thunder Fly was the first official Legend Beast Tamer here.

    Lian Xing also walked over, pretending to be curious, observing Ephemeral’s form…

    Although the five of them were rivals, they usually got along, even exchanging information and resources.

    A moment later, the Moonwalker Mother, in her wedding dress, emerged from the mist with Little Moonwalker. Seeing Lian Xing, Little Moonwalker immediately hopped over excitedly, rubbing against her legs.

    And the Moonwalker Mother’s gaze was fixed on Thunder Fly.

    “Such an unexpected development…”

    “Not Libra, but Ephemeral?”

    “An impressive judgment. I’m surprised…”

    “I’m looking forward to your future performance~~~~” With these words of praise, the Moonwalker Mother looked at the silent, golden-haired girl meaningfully.

    “It seems…our previous agreement is canceled…”

    “…”
    “…”
    “What a pity, Mother…wuwuwu~~~” Lian Xing said, feigning sadness, as if regretting not being able to obtain the Moonwalker Mother’s favor…

    They had made an agreement. If Lian Xing became the first Legend Beast Tamer, the Moonwalker Mother would make an exception and allow her to “bypass” Little Moonwalker, the ethical barrier.

    Unfortunately, in the end, Lian Xing had lost to the talented Thunder Fly.

    This was an undeniable defeat for Lian Xing!!!

    But. It was fine…

    As long as things stayed as they were…

    At this moment, under the Moonwalker Mother’s observant gaze, although the golden-haired girl seemed disappointed, her starry eyes were gleaming…

    “Heh…it seems you’ve already found a more important target…”

    “You don’t have to be so obvious about your eagerness…”

    “But no matter who your opponent is…give it your all~~~” the Moonwalker Mother said to Lian Xing, her voice filled with encouragement, as the other girls looked on, confused.

    Hearing this, Lian Xing paused, then chuckled wryly.

    Had her emotions been that obvious…?

    But…

    She was about to face that Ancient Juvenile Species…

    She was about to challenge the Ancient Species’ bloodline…

    How could she possibly suppress her excitement!?

    Under the Moonwalker Mother’s gentle gaze, Lian Xing nodded seriously.

    A few seconds later, the mist dispersed, and the white deer space began to fade.

    Thunder Fly, standing in the distance, looked at Lian Xing’s disappearing figure with a worried expression.

    Just then, Tears Maiden also looked at Lian Xing’s fading form thoughtfully.

    “Whoosh!”

    Their consciousness returned to reality.

    In a cold pool, the naked, blue-haired girl slowly opened her teardrop-shaped eyes, looking at the ice-blue elemental light floating before her.

    “Sorry, I was distracted. What were you saying?”

    “Tears Maiden, I am a special envoy from the Seven Heavens. I’m here on behalf of the six lords to invite you to join the Seven Heavens, to become the seventh lord, filling the vacant seat!!”

    “You’re inviting Rainwater, right?” Tears Maiden asked, her expression indifferent.

    “There’s no difference,” the ice-blue light replied with a smile.

    “…”
    “…”
    “By the way, you said before that the Seven Heavens have access to all battle regions, right? Do you know a golden-haired girl with starry eyes? Her name is Lian Xing!!”

    “One moment, let me check the records~~~” The ice-blue light immediately took out its phone and began searching.

    Tears Maiden closed her eyes and waited patiently. Her impression of Lian Xing was just a cheerful and cute ordinary girl, not someone with the aura or behavior of a strong Beast Tamer.

    But she always felt that the Moonwalker Mother’s attitude towards Lian Xing was different…

    She was the second recipient of Rainwater’s gaze.

    Thunder Fly had become a true Legend Beast Tamer.

    But even so, the Moonwalker Mother still seemed to favor Lian Xing which puzzled Tears Maiden.

    And more importantly, in this gathering, she had suddenly noticed that Lian Xing’s demeanor was different from her usual casual attitude!!!

    Just as the Mother had said, that incredible fighting spirit…even Rainwater’s soul fragment within her could sense it.

    What had happened to her?

    And what kind of opponent was she about to face!?

    Just then, the ice-blue light, which had been searching through its phone records, let out a gasp of surprise.

    “Hmm, interesting. This girl named Lian Xing…she actually defeated Moon Princess and Chiyu, both with Emperor’s bloodline, in the Beast Tamer Alliance Competition, and even caused Zi Meng of Shining Girls to forfeit…”

    “And in a few minutes, she’ll be facing Dead Ash~~~”

    “Dead Ash…the team with that Ancient Juvenile Species? The one that all the other teams in the Beast Tamer Alliance are avoiding…?” Tears Maiden asked in disbelief.

    “Yes, the infamous Dead Ash, one of your strongest competitors this year!!”

    “But this Lian Xing…she probably won’t be facing it directly~~~”

    “…”
    “…”

    No, she definitely will!!! At this moment, Tears Maiden’s teardrop-shaped eyes narrowed sharply.

    Lian Xing’s expression earlier…

    It had said everything.

    “Can I watch the livestream too?” she asked anxiously.

    “Uh, sure, but I didn’t expect you to be interested in a Beast Tamer from another region…” the ice-blue elemental light said, then quickly projected the livestream onto the wall of the icy cave.

    Lian Xing…

    You’re not really going to do something so reckless, are you…? Tears Maiden thought, staring at the livestream.

    “…”
    “…”
    “Moon Rabbit, Little Moon Rabbit, the match is about to start. Are you asleep?”

    Meanwhile, in the “I’ll Measure Your Code” team’s resting room…

    As Little Sheep’s voice echoed, the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes slowly sat up from the sofa, rubbing her eyes sleepily.

    “No, I was just dreaming~~~”

    “Uh, is there a difference?” Little Sheep, the girl with buns, blinked, confused.

    “It’s fine, let’s go~~~” Under her teammates’ gaze, Lian Xing smiled, then stood up and walked towards the battle login device. Seeing this, the Moonlight Rabbit, the Golden Leaf in its mouth, jumped onto the girl’s head.

    Mist swirled, starlight shimmered.

    At this moment, the Legend’s aura, unrestrained, began to spread.

    Meanwhile, Little Sheep, watching Lian Xing’s glowing figure, swallowed hard.

    Moon Rabbit…

    Something’s different… but I can’t quite put my finger on it…

    But I guess everything will be revealed once the match begins… Little Sheep shook her head and followed.

    A moment later, the seven members of the “Measure Your Code” team logged into their battle devices. The Moonlight Rabbit, looking at its own jiggling belly, ignored it and entered Lian Xing’s body.



    2nd-level region, Beast Tamer Alliance, the final battle of the season.

    The 3rd-ranked Dead Ash team!!

    VS

    The 6th-ranked “I’ll Measure Your Code” team!!

    Baiyue Province, Bimen Pass, Youyou Leize, Worry-Free Pond…viewers from countless regions around the world were watching this battle with bated breath.

    For some, this was just a formality…

    The Dead Ash team wouldn’t change their lineup.

    And the “Measure Your Code” team wouldn’t dare to face the Ancient Juvenile Species directly.

    Naturally…it should be like this…

    However, for a select few, this battle was the beginning of something earth-shattering, a turning point…!!!

    “The Dead Ash team, the uncrowned queen of the Beast Tamer Alliance, with their Ancient Juvenile Species, they’ve easily reached the top five and are about to participate in the Interdimensional Grand Finals, continuing their reign of terror~~~”

    “The ‘Measure Your Code’ team, after the arrival of their rising star, Moon Rabbit, they’ve been on a winning streak, dominating the 4v4 Hell Survival, not allowing any enemy to take those 3 points, and they’ve even defeated Monday, Inverted City, and Shining Girls! They are now among the top contenders in the Alliance!!!”

    “Heh, I always thought I was the quiet one, until I met this person beside me~~~” After introducing the two teams, the Great Lord Bingqing rolled its eyes at the green-haired woman with the conch shell.

    But it wouldn’t argue with a Mechanical Species.

    It was like…few players would actually punch their monitors after losing a game.

    The commentators for this match were still the Great Lord Bingqing and the Great Lord Biluo.

    It was said that this was the first time the Great Lord Biluo had volunteered to be a commentator, which had confused the Alliance’s higher-ups.

    “Honestly, I’m more optimistic about the ‘Measure Your Code’ team. If they have the Heaven-Gracing Curtain participate in the 3v3 Rotation Battle and the Mist Colt in the 4v4 Hell Survival, they can practically guarantee 6 points.”

    “Yes, Lian Xing will win…” the Great Lord Biluo suddenly said.

    And as its words echoed, both the Great Lord Bingqing beside it and the livestream viewers were stunned.

    What…?

    Lian Xing?

    Was that Moon Rabbit’s real name?

    The residents of Baiyue Province were dumbfounded.

    Had the Great Lord Biluo lost its mind…?

    Why did it just reveal Lian Xing’s real name?

    At this moment, under the Great Lord Bingqing’s warning gaze, the Great Lord Biluo simply shook its head indifferently.

    It didn’t matter anymore…

    It couldn’t be hidden…

    Under everyone’s gaze, as the 14 team members appeared on stage, the discussion about Moon Rabbit’s real name subsided. The Dead Ash team members, as usual, hadn’t changed their strategy, their expressions calm and indifferent.

    However, for some reason, the “Measure Your Code” team members’ expressions were strange…

    As if they knew something…

    Only the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes, her expression cheerful, her gaze fixed on the silver-haired girl opposite her, seemed excited…

    Six months had passed, and this battle had finally arrived.

    “The wielder of the Ancient Juvenile Species—”

    “Let me test you. Do you even have the right to walk this path…a path I’ve already reached the end of…~~~”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Please confirm your lineups and order of participation—”

    3v3 Rotation Battle, confirmed.

    1v1 Single Pet Battle, confirmed.

    4v4 Hell Survival, confirmed.

    In just a few seconds, as the lineups were gradually revealed, some viewers began to sense something amiss. Those with quick eyes immediately noticed…

    Moon Rabbit’s pet beasts weren’t in the first three rounds.

    However, before they could even think further…

    In the next second, as the 5v5 Siege Battle lineup was revealed, a terrifying Ancient aura descended.

    “Boom!!!!!!!!!!!”

    A deafening roar echoed through the venue.

    The boiling Ancient bloodline descended upon the world…

    The Dead Ash team members, prepared in advance, covered their ears and crouched on the ground. The “Measure Your Code” team members were knocked to the floor.

    Almost all the viewers winced in pain, especially those in Baiyue Province, their faces contorted.

    However, at that moment…

    In the silent livestream chat, some people’s eyes widened, while others’ narrowed sharply.

    Under everyone’s gaze, the golden-haired girl with starry eyes stood motionless.

    Moon Princess and Chiyu, watching the livestream, were completely stunned.

    Although they had both lost to Moon Rabbit, they hadn’t sensed any power from her.

    But at this moment, they finally understood.

    Lian Xing’s body was surrounded by shimmering, golden stardust, seemingly unaffected by the Ancient bloodline’s pressure, her gaze meeting the silver-haired girl’s.

    If this wasn’t breathtaking, then what could possibly describe the shock they felt?

    [Heaven-Gracing Curtain]

    [Red Prison Palace Master]

    [Cloud Dream Calamity]

    [Star Sand]

    [Calamity Sun]

    At this moment, Lian Xing’s strongest lineup was finally revealed…

    And then, a wave of disbelief began to spread.

    This overwhelming, illogical, and unbelievable lineup…

    It instantly threw the entire Beast Tamer Alliance into chaos.

    Tears Maiden of Worry-Free Pond and the envoy from the Seven Heavens were stunned, unable to comprehend the lines of text appearing before their eyes.

    The Great Lord Bingqing, teammates, enemies, Moon Princess, Chiyu, Zi Meng…except for the Great Lord Biluo, who was smiling…

    Everyone was in a state of panic…

    Meanwhile, Dead Ash’s heart began to race as she looked at the golden-haired girl with starry eyes in disbelief.

    For the first time…

    This was the first time in her life that someone had truly stood before her…

    Like an insurmountable mountain, blocking her, and their Ancient Species evolution path…

    The wielder of two Legends, Moon Rabbit Lian Xing!!!

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 133p2

    Chapter 133: Shining Girls, Zi Meng p2

    6th-level region, Bimen Pass.

    Seeing the golden-haired girl emerge from the teleportation array, the Great Lord Biluo, which had received prior notice and was waiting, greeted her with a smile.

    “Big star, your final match is coming soon. Why are you back so suddenly? Do you need any resources?”

    “To defeat that Ancient Juvenile Species…I need one last favor…” Lian Xing said directly.

    “W-What…?” Seeing Lian Xing’s serious expression, the Great Lord Biluo felt a surge of unease…

    “You said before that the buildings in Bimen Pass are all constructed by your system, so even if they’re destroyed, you can instantly restore them, right?”

    “Uh, yes…but what are you planning…?” the Great Lord Biluo asked hesitantly.

    “You have five minutes. Evacuate all the residents underground!!”

    “A Legend is about to descend!!!”

    “…”
    “…”

    As Lian Xing’s commanding words echoed, the Great Lord Biluo, after a few seconds of shock, quickly activated its control center, adjusting the city’s structure, sinking all the buildings deep underground. Within a minute, Bimen Pass was reduced to an empty field, and the Great Lord Biluo stared at the golden-haired girl, its breath held.

    A Legend!?

    What was going on…?

    Could Lian Xing actually… summon another Legend?

    The Great Lord Biluo’s promising student from a few years ago had been traumatized by Dead Ash’s debut match, and it had given up on sponsoring the league, withdrawing to Bimen Pass and avoiding contact with the outside world. Although it felt helpless, it didn’t resent Dead Ash. It had simply used it as an excuse to push Lian Xing’s growth.

    However, Lian Xing’s progress in the past six months had far exceeded its expectations.

    The Great Lord Biluo was now conflicted, unsure whether it should intervene…

    It knew the consequences of Dead Ash’s defeat and the damage it would cause to the Beast Tamer Alliance.

    But on the other hand, it couldn’t resist the urge to witness the shocking moment when Lian Xing defeated the Ancient Juvenile Species.

    Compared to that immature Ancient Species…

    It wanted to see Lian Xing ascend to the highest throne of the pet beast world!!!

    At this moment, as the Great Lord Biluo was lost in its thoughts…

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain, its body snow-white, emerged from behind the golden-haired girl.

    “Can you sense its aura?”

    “…”
    “…”

    Facing Lian Xing’s question, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain nodded seriously. Then, its blindfold fell, revealing its cloud-like eyes.

    Heavenly Ruler, activated!!!

    In the next second, under the Great Lord Biluo’s shocked gaze, almost 30 soft, fleshy rabbit ears, like unfurling wings, sprouted from the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s back.

    The bloodline combat skill, Six Ears, fully unleashed!!!

    This was the scene that Zi Meng, the Shining Girls captain, had seen in her final simulation.

    And it was the final form…that she, despite her best efforts, couldn’t withstand, not even for a second.

    At this moment, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain gathered its 30+ ears, their tips pointing towards a certain spot in the sky. As a green current silently surged through its body, a thin, crimson particle began to materialize.

    “Buzzzzzzzz——!!!”

    As the crimson energy particle compressed, a deafening noise spread outwards, staining the sky above Bimen Pass red. The Great Lord Biluo, its expression filled with shock, took a few steps back.

    [Flexibility Enhancement]

    [Heavenly Ruler]

    [Six Ears Fully Unleashed]

    [Flurry X30]

    [Combo X30]

    [Power Throw X30]

    [Sand Toss (Crimson) X30]

    [Star Plucker (Crimson) X30]

    “Boom!!!!”

    In the next second, the space and Pet Essence above Bimen Pass were pulverized…

    A light, like a comet, pierced through the sky, instantly vanishing from sight, traveling across tens of thousands of regions.

    Meanwhile, even with the Mist Colt’s protective aura, Lian Xing’s body still trembled from the impact. But she remained motionless, her starry eyes fixed on the distant sky, her golden buns swaying wildly in the wind.

    At the same time, in an unknown 6th-level region, in the middle of the ocean…

    A giant crab, its body covered in blue crystal scales, looked at the small, black figure before it with excitement. It was a black, iron ball, its surface seemingly ordinary, but its aura was like an abyss.

    [Let’s play a game.]

    [See how far you can throw me!!]

    “…”
    “…”
    “Calamity Sun!!!”

    “What an honor! I just reached Monarch-Tier, and Calamity Sun has come to me…!!!” At this moment, the giant crystal crab’s eyes were filled with tears.

    As a throwing-type pet beast, how could it resist the temptation of throwing Calamity Sun!!!

    No matter how many lives were lost.

    No matter how many regions were destroyed.

    Its mind was made up!!!

    However, just as it extended a pincer and grasped Calamity Sun, a red light descended from the sky, landing on the giant crab’s head.

    “Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    In an instant, it was like the end of the world.

    A powerful shockwave, like a planetary collision, erupted, the ocean within a radius of thousands of kilometers instantly turning to ash, countless young marine life obliterated…

    The entire ocean region sank at a visible speed.

    A few minutes later, as the dust settled, a blue-haired woman with a hard crab shell emerged, a hole in the top of her head, thick, fragrant crab roe oozing out, a mouthwatering sight. She looked around frantically, her face red with anger.

    “Who did this!!!”

    “Who dares to attack my region!!!”

    “…”
    “…”

    [Someone is calling for me.]

    [Throw me there.]

    “Yes, yes, as you wish, Lord Calamity Sun!!!” At this moment, although the region it guarded had been destroyed with a single attack, the crab-woman cared more about Calamity Sun’s wishes.

    Its entire right pincer turned crimson, its grip tightening around Calamity Sun, then, with all its strength, it threw it towards the source of the attack.

    “Boom!!!!!”

    The sky shattered, the clouds ripped apart.

    The already devastated ocean was struck again, a 10,000-meter deep crater appearing.

    And the black light, like a shooting star, vanished in a series of black explosions.

    “…”
    “…”
    “Heh, whoever you are…die!!!” The blue crab-woman cursed, watching Calamity Sun disappear into the distance.

    This way, not only would it fulfill Lord Calamity Sun’s request, but it could also destroy a few nearby regions as revenge… Two birds with one stone.

    But…Calamity Sun’s power was absurd…

    The crab-woman looked at the devastated world around it, then at its mangled right pincer, its expression filled with a mix of shock and awe. Calamity Sun had increased its throwing power by at least 70%, not to mention the destructive power of Calamity Sun itself upon impact.

    And what was even more terrifying…

    Calamity Sun, a mere High-Tier pet beast, had crippled its right hand with a single attack. What kind of corrosive power was that…?

    This was one of the 72 Legends!!!

    Thinking of this, the crab-woman’s expression became even more fanatical…

    “I wonder if Lord Calamity Sun is satisfied with this throw~~~”

    “I think it was pretty good!!!”

    “…”
    “…”

    [That’s not enough. Try harder~~~]

    However, a few seconds later, as Calamity Sun’s message appeared before it, the blue crab-woman’s smug expression froze. It stood there, motionless, tears welling up in its eyes.



    6th-level region, Bimen Pass.

    No, not just Bimen Pass.

    At this moment, almost all the subordinate regions of the Beast Tamer Alliance could see a black meteor streaking across the sky, even the Monarch-Tier experts guarding the borders didn’t have time to react before it pierced through their defenses, reaching the heart of the Beast Tamer Alliance!!

    Its destination—

    Bimen Pass!!!

    “Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    Without warning, as the black sun descended, Bimen Pass was instantly flattened, the surrounding mountains disintegrating into dust. The Great Lord Biluo, blown several kilometers away, struggled to raise its head, staring at the devastating scene in disbelief.

    As if realizing something, its expression turned to horror.

    It had never imagined this…

    But now, the Great Lord Biluo finally understood.

    Moon Rabbit Lian Xing, Heaven-Gracing Curtain…

    They were the ones responsible for that legendary throw six months ago!!!

    Meanwhile, amidst the swirling dust…

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain, its expression calm, held a pulsating black, iron ball in one hand. And the black ball was bound by golden chains, enveloped by the Cloud Dream Calamity’s mist, which had almost completely neutralized Calamity Sun’s destructive power upon arrival.

    Even a Monarch-Tier throwing attack would weaken significantly over long distances.

    But Heavenly Ruler…

    It didn’t…

    And Calamity Sun’s abilities had been sealed by Star Sand the moment it arrived.

    This had resulted in its pathetic impact against the Cloud Dream Calamity’s aura shield…it hadn’t even caused a ripple.

    Soon, two familiar lines of black text appeared before the Heaven-Gracing Curtain.

    [Let’s play a game.]

    [See how far you can throw me!!]

    “…”
    “…”
    “Alright, but not now~~~~” Suddenly, a gentle voice echoed, and the golden-haired girl with starry eyes appeared before the helpless Calamity Sun, a smile on her face.

    Now she had all the pieces she needed to defeat Dead Ash and the Ancient Juvenile Species.

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 133 p1

    Chapter 133: Shining Girls, Zi Meng p1

    Shining Girls, Zi Meng. Unlike Moon Princess and Chiyu, she didn’t have noble Emperor’s blood flowing through her veins. She was just an ordinary village girl from a 10th-level region. Like many other unremarkable Beast Tamers, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, she was still playing with Juvenile pet beasts in her village, building snowmen and playing in the mud.

    But one day, everything changed.

    The gaze of Qianqiu, one of the 72 Legends, fell upon that 10th-level region, and all living beings except Zi Meng perished in that dream…

    A few days later, Zi Meng, born blind, walked out of the Legend’s awakening domain alone.

    And from that day forward, she had never lost a battle.

    Strictly speaking, she wasn’t a Legend Beast Tamer, but a victim of a Legend.

    The reason she had joined the Beast Tamer Alliance was to one day hunt Qianqiu, the Legend that now stood at the pinnacle of the pet beast world.

    At this moment, on one side of the stage, all the “Measure Your Code” team members stared at the blind, purple-haired girl with grim expressions. Their lineup had already been decided, but the opponent still hadn’t finalized theirs.

    “…”
    “…”
    “Boom!!!!”

    Suddenly, under some viewers’ surprised gazes, an incredibly powerful aura erupted from Zi Meng, enveloping the entire stage. Purple energy waves surged like a tidal wave.

    Awakening…!?

    What was going on? Why had Captain Zi Meng activated her pet beast’s Awakening in advance?

    Lian Xing was confused.

    Even the Great Lord Biluo, on the commentary desk, its expression slightly strange, couldn’t understand what this performance was about.

    Just then, Zi Ye, the captain of “Measure Your Code,” whispered in Lian Xing’s ear, “Be careful, she’s observing the future battle…”

    “Shining Girls’ battles…they’re already decided…before they even begin!!!”

    “Observing the future!?” Lian Xing blinked, puzzled.

    This ability reminded her of the information she had seen in the 10th-anniversary future expansion data of Pet Beast Evolution Battle in her previous life.

    But the preparation time before the match was sufficient. They couldn’t interrupt the opponent’s trick…

    However…

    At this moment, under everyone’s gaze, beads of sweat appeared on the blind, purple-haired girl’s forehead, and her dull, unfocused eyes turned towards Lian Xing.

    Her main battle pet beast was the Viral Species Royal-Tier, Fivefold Samsara, which could revert to its state and position from five seconds prior. Combined with its second talent, tainted by Qianqiu, after awakening, it could observe future scenarios hundreds of times. In short, it was a beast taming simulator…

    But this Moon Rabbit’s strength…it was too absurd…!!!

    In her simulations, she had first tried the 4v4 Hell Survival ten times. After realizing that there was no way to overcome the Cloud Dream Calamity’s defense, she had decisively abandoned the 3 points from that round, focusing on the final battle.

    However, in the 5v5 Siege Battle, although Shining Girls was faster at clearing the wild pet beasts, they had all been defeated by the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, unable to even get close, each one pierced by the Crimson combat skill, Star Plucker.

    In the 16th simulation, the Fivefold Samsara memorized the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s throwing patterns, preemptively changing positions and closing in, but after getting close, it had been destroyed by a red light, not even seeing the opponent’s true form.

    In the 21st simulation, the Fivefold Samsara finally saw the Red Prison Palace Master, but facing the giant red halo covering the entire map, it was helpless…

    In the 29th simulation, the Fivefold Samsara attempted a long-range snipe against the Heaven-Gracing Curtain and failed.

    In the 35th simulation, it failed again.

    In the 45th simulation, it failed again.

    In the 50th simulation, it succeeded in the snipe, defeating the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, but then lost to the red Golden Wheel guarding the crystal.

    In the 69th simulation, it succeeded in the snipe, defeating the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, then perfectly avoided the Red Prison Palace Master’s outer ring, approaching the inner ring, but the Red Prison Palace Master activated Sheathing, and the Fivefold Samsara was instantly killed.

    In the 80th simulation, the Fivefold Samsara lasted for one minute before being defeated.

    In the 90th simulation, it lasted for three minutes.

    Under everyone’s gaze, the purple-haired, blind girl stood on the stage, her eyes closed, her body drenched in sweat, her teammates’ expressions tense. Normally, the captain’s simulations only took a few minutes. It had been almost ten minutes, and the Fivefold Samsara’s Awakening time was almost over. Why hadn’t it ended yet?

    Could it be that it had encountered an… unbeatable opponent!?

    In the 123rd simulation, the Fivefold Samsara finally deciphered the Red Prison Palace Master’s movements in its Sheathing form, reaching the core crystal unscathed by constantly reverting its position, but at the critical moment, the Red Prison Palace Master activated its third transcendent evolution form, and the Fivefold Samsara was instantly killed.

    In the 124th simulation, it encountered the Heaven-Gracing Curtain in its Six Ears form, failed the initial snipe, and was pulverized…

    In the 125th simulation, it encountered Six Ears again and failed.

    In the 139th simulation, it encountered Six Ears again and failed.

    In the 140th simulation, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, in its full Six Ears form, and the Red Prison Palace Master in its third transcendent evolution form, appeared simultaneously, and the Fivefold Samsara didn’t even have time to react before its city was obliterated by a map-wide attack…

    In the 150th simulation, the same result repeated ten times in a row.

    Pausing the simulation, looking at the repeated failures, Zi Meng’s body trembled.

    What was going on!?

    Had the simulation path been altered…?

    Why were the opponent’s opening moves becoming increasingly absurd…?

    She had been competing in the league for years, but this was the first time she had encountered such a situation!!!

    Suddenly realizing something, Zi Meng, her energy almost depleted, opened her eyes with difficulty, looking towards the “Measure Your Code” team through the Fivefold Samsara’s shared vision.

    The golden-haired girl with starry eyes was staring at her, her expression serious and alert.

    So that’s it… Zi Meng sighed inwardly.

    Her prolonged simulation had increased the opponent’s vigilance, causing them to use their full power from the start, which had disrupted all her subsequent simulations.

    Her dream simulation couldn’t instantly predict the final outcome. This was one of the Fivefold Samsara’s weaknesses.

    In that case, this battle…it was already over…

    “…”
    “…”
    “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!”

    Just as the viewers were getting impatient, the two teams’ lineups for all four rounds were finally revealed.

    At this moment, silence fell.

    Not only the viewers, but even the Shining Girls team members looked at each other in disbelief.

    First round, 3v3 Rotation Battle, Shining Girls’ vice-captain, solo.

    Second round, 1v1 Single Pet Battle, another Shining Girls member.

    Third round, 4v4 Hell Survival, no Shining Girls participants.

    Fourth round, 5v5 Siege Battle, no Shining Girls participants…

    Seeing this, the Soul Hunters captain stood up from her seat, her face contorted in anger, glaring at the Shining Girls’ lineup.

    What the hell was going on!!???

    This would only widen the gap between the “Measure Your Code” team and the Soul Hunters!!!

    Just then, under everyone’s gaze, Zi Meng, who had made such a bizarre decision, spoke, her expression grim, her gaze fixed on Lian Xing, “I’ve tried countless times, rewinding and replaying, but I’m still stuck at the beginning, unable to move forward.”

    “Moon Rabbit…is that your name?”

    “I regret not watching your previous matches, but…”

    “Next time. I will…” With these resigned words, Zi Meng logged out without looking back, leaving her Shining Girls teammates speechless.

    Shining Girls, undefeated this season…

    Their captain, Zi Meng…she had actually forfeited…!!!

    As countless fans were still in shock, the Great Lord Bingqing, the commentator, sighed and explained, “Captain Zi Meng…she must have seen the future outcome. She realized that she couldn’t defeat Moon Rabbit in these two rounds…”

    “Unlike before, this time, Moon Rabbit deployed two pet beasts…” As the Great Lord Bingqing finished speaking, countless viewers finally noticed…

    High-Tier — Weapon Species — Red Prison Palace Master!!!

    Moon Rabbit had deployed another pet beast!?

    It was also High-Tier, like the Cloud Dream Calamity?

    But they had never heard of this name before.

    Could it be that even Shining Girls, at their full power, couldn’t defeat this new pet beast?

    At this moment, not only the shocked viewers, but also the Soul Hunters captain, Chiyu, and the others stared at the golden-haired girl with buns as if she were a monster…

    In the Monday team’s private resting room, a bitter smile appeared on Moon Princess’s face.

    She had wanted to see if Moon Rabbit could still maintain her composure against Shining Girls.

    But. it had backfired…

    Even Zi Meng hadn’t been able to gauge Moon Rabbit’s true limit, choosing to forfeit after a series of failed attempts, not even revealing the Red Prison Palace Master’s true form!!!

    Meanwhile, Lian Xing, suddenly the center of attention, sighed in relief.

    Seeing the opponent’s hesitation, she had almost impulsively deployed Star Sand.

    Good thing I didn’t…

    That was close~~~

    It seemed this pretentious girl had no way of dealing with the combination of Moonlight Rabbit and Golden Leaf…

    If you can’t win, just say so. What was with all that cryptic talk about starting points and endpoints…

    A few minutes later, just as Zi Meng’s bizarre actions had predicted, the match between Shining Girls and the “Measure Your Code” team ended with a score of 4:6, the latter easily winning the first two rounds, the former forfeiting the last two without even putting up a fight.

    In the following days, Zi Meng’s forfeiture caused a sensation in the Alliance.

    Not only were they shocked by Moon Rabbit’s hidden strength…

    Almost everyone began to notice the shrinking point gap between the “Measure Your Code” team and the Soul Hunters.

    No one had expected the Soul Hunters to be overtaken at the end of the season, even Shining Girls, with their undefeated record, had given away 6 points to Moon Rabbit.

    It seemed that Moon Rabbit had single-handedly carried the “Measure Your Code” team to the Interdimensional Grand Finals!!!

    Soon, the Soul Hunters’ final match also ended. Their season was over, temporarily 2 points ahead of the “Measure Your Code” team.

    And the “Measure Your Code” team still had their final match against Dead Ash!!

    As everyone knew, the 4v4 Hell Survival was Dead Ash’s weakest round.

    So, as long as the Mist Colt participated in Hell Survival and secured 3 points, the “Measure Your Code” team’s qualification would be guaranteed , without even needing to face the Ancient Juvenile Species.

    The atmosphere within the Soul Hunters team was grim these past few days. Even their usually calm captain had been throwing tantrums, frustrated and helpless.

    And just before the “Measure Your Code” team’s final match, unbeknownst to anyone, Lian Xing, their ace, left the Beast Tamer Alliance Headquarters through a teleportation array.

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 132

    Chapter 132: Shining Girls!!!

    “Whoosh!!!”

    “Boom, boom, boom!!!!”

    Two figures, like streaks of lightning, raced across the 10,000-kilometer track, thunder echoing and wind swirling in their wake. Before their terrifying speed, everything around them seemed to be in slow motion…

    Even ordinary Monarch-Tier pet beasts would be awestruck…

    One was a misty, Viral Species figure with an emerald green horn on its head, the other a giant, pink halo with wings. Cloud Dream Calamity and Ephemeral. Both, as Viral Species, had rather abstract forms.

    This was their final race, the track over 30 times longer than their usual races.

    In this situation, all tricks were meaningless. This was a test of pure, unadulterated speed.

    Meanwhile, as the two pet beasts raced, Lian Xing and Thunder Fly stood at the starting line, casually chatting.

    “So, Little Star, have you found your target yet?”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Almost, just a few more days~~~” Lian Xing replied with a smile after a moment of hesitation.

    Honestly, she hadn’t expected Thunder Fly to see through her true intentions.

    In the “Measure Your Code” team’s final match, she planned to risk everything and face that Ancient Juvenile Species.

    Moonlight Rabbit, Golden Leaf, Cloud Dream Calamity, Star Sand, a 4v1.

    If she lost, her entire evolution plan would crumble.

    And even if she won, there wouldn’t be any tangible benefits. In fact, it might even throw the Beast Tamer Alliance into chaos.

    But…

    An Ancient Juvenile Species right before her eyes…how could she resist the urge to destroy its evolution path!?

    At this moment, as Lian Xing was lost in thought—

    “Boom!!!!”

    A hurricane erupted.

    In the next second, accompanied by a deafening roar, both the Cloud Dream Calamity and Ephemeral shot forward from the starting line, the wind even lifting Lian Xing’s skirt over her head. She blinked, looking at Thunder Fly, both of them speechless.

    Clearly, with their Beast Tamer senses, they couldn’t tell who was faster, so they could only rely on the two pet beasts to judge themselves.

    [I won again,] the Cloud Dream Calamity’s voice echoed in Lian Xing’s mind. Another effortless victory.

    [I finally won!] However, at the same time, Ephemeral said to Thunder Fly, its voice filled with satisfaction.

    To be precise, although its body was slightly behind, its life crystal had crossed the finish line first.

    But the Cloud Dream Calamity, unlike Yun Jianyou, wasn’t so easygoing. The first one whose body crossed the finish line was the winner. It wouldn’t accept the crystal first argument.

    Sensing the Cloud Dream Calamity’s thoughts, Lian Xing smiled faintly.

    “Alright, then I’ll be going. See you in that place next time~~~”

    “Yes, Little Star, see you in a few days~~~”

    Without arguing about the results, they both logged out of the virtual network.

    Deep within the Youyou Leize palace, Thunder Fly, removing the VR headset, stood up, her expression slightly grim. She looked at the pet beast information before her, the battle records and evolution analysis of the Beast Tamer Alliance’s strongest ace, the Dead Ash team.

    “An Ancient Juvenile Species…even my sister can’t easily defeat it, right?”

    “So this is the opponent Little Star will be facing—”

    “…”
    “…”

    Dead Ash of the Beast Tamer Alliance, a T0-level contender for the championship, just like the Second Princess of Youyou Leize. Her Ancient bloodline intimidated all her opponents, none able to even stand before her.

    However, at this moment, sensing Thunder Fly’s worry, Ephemeral, floating nearby, scoffed.

    Even Star Sand isn’t worried, why are you?

    You’re not even on the same level…



    2nd-level region, Beast Tamer Alliance, “I’ll Measure Your Code” team resting room.

    Seeing the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes return, the team members’ expressions brightened. Black Magpie even patted Lian Xing’s shoulder excitedly, gesturing towards the large screen displaying the live match.

    “Moon Rabbit, we’ve surpassed the Soul Hunters!!!”

    “Moon Princess is back! She shut out the Soul Hunters! So, we’re temporarily in 5th place, 3 points ahead of the Soul Hunters!!”

    “If we can successfully trade points with Shining Girls and Dead Ash in the upcoming matches, we still have a good chance of qualifying~~~~”

    As Black Magpie finished speaking, the other team members’ expressions were filled with excitement.

    Undoubtedly, if Lian Xing used her full power, she could at least trade 6 points with Dead Ash!!

    The reason Dead Ash was ranked third was because she always deployed the Ancient Juvenile Species in the final round, ignoring the other rounds, allowing other teams to farm points from her.

    So, Lian Xing could simply have the Heaven-Gracing Curtain participate in the 3v3 Rotation Battle and easily win the first round against Dead Ash.

    After all, even the awakened Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow wasn’t a match for it. They couldn’t imagine the Heaven-Gracing Curtain losing in the 3v3.

    At this moment, not only Black Magpie, but also the other team members thought the same.

    However, Lian Xing simply smiled faintly, neither answering nor nodding.

    She wasn’t here just to participate in the Interdimensional Grand Finals.

    Just then, Little Sheep asked curiously, “By the way, which region do you think will win the championship this year?”

    “…”
    “…”
    “The City of Awe, Worry-Free Pond, Youyou Leize…probably one of those top regions, right? Youyou Leize recently revealed two Legend Beast Tamers. That’s huge… Now the Alliance’s higher-ups have no choice but to let Dead Ash participate.”

    “Tears Maiden of Worry-Free Pond and the Third Princess of Youyou Leize are both only 16 years old. Even if Dead Ash exceeds the age limit, she won’t be able to outlast them!!!”

    “Aaaaaaaaaaah, I can’t believe we’re actually going to face those geniuses from the top regions! I thought I would only ever see them in livestreams!!!” The “Measure Your Code” team members discussed excitedly, and Black Magpie glanced at Lian Xing, who remained silent.

    “Moon Rabbit, which region do you think is the strongest? Oh, I forgot, you’ve only been here for less than half a year. You probably haven’t encountered the other regions’ powers yet…”

    “Worry-Free Pond… probably has the highest chance~~~~” Lian Xing said casually.

    Hearing this, Black Magpie paused, then looked at her strangely.

    She had asked about the region, not the person.

    Why did Moon Rabbit sound like she had personally met Tears Maiden?

    Well, she actually had…

    But without having seen the other contenders in person, Lian Xing could only judge based on her impressions…

    Just from the oppressiveness of its aura, that Tears Maiden had already reached an unbelievable level.

    Her synergy and compatibility with Rainwater were far beyond other Legend Beast Tamers.

    At least in the Moonwalker Mother’s space, Tears Maiden was unmatched…

    Even Thunder Fly, who had exposed Ephemeral, could only temporarily counterbalance her. In the end, Tears Maiden would likely be the one to gain the Moonwalker clan’s favor.

    But…

    All of this was based on the assumption that Lian Xing did nothing…

    Ten days later, the apparent power structure of the pet beast world would be completely overturned…!!!



    Three days later…

    One week remained until the end of the Beast Tamer Alliance season.

    The final rankings were being decided.

    In previous years, there wouldn’t be much change at this point, but this year was different. Almost all the viewers and participants were paying attention to two teams.

    The 5th-ranked “Measure Your Code” team and the 6th-ranked Soul Hunters, only 3 points apart!!!

    Although Moon Rabbit’s strength had far exceeded everyone’s expectations, after defeating Moon Princess and Chiyu, two immovable mountains stood before her: Shining Girls and Dead Ash!!!

    This suspense was killing them…

    10 PM, the livestream began.

    Under everyone’s gaze, on the virtual stage, two cold and aloof humanoid women sat at the commentary desk. Xiao Jie, the incompetent commentator, had been removed…

    The reason was simple: an ordinary commentator wasn’t qualified to commentate on this match.

    “I’ll Measure Your Code” VS Shining Girls, the penultimate match of the league. The commentators for this match were the Great Lord Bingqing and the Great Lord Biluo!!!

    The Great Lord Bingqing, her long hair made of ice, glanced at the green-haired woman with a giant conch shell on her back and asked, “Biluo, it’s rare to see you as a commentator. You haven’t paid attention to the league for years, right? Did you accept the invitation this time because of Moon Rabbit?”

    “By the way, do you know about the Shining Girls team?”

    “Not really…” the Great Lord Biluo replied absentmindedly.

    Shining Girls was a new team that had appeared after Dead Ash’s debut. It had only heard of them, not paid much attention.

    “Besides Dead Ash, Shining Girls have a perfect record this year and last year, shutting out all their opponents. Even Soul Hunters, Monday, and Inverted City couldn’t score a single point against them. They are the true kings of the Beast Tamer Alliance.”

    “Because they can predict the opponent’s lineup in advance, Shining Girls will adjust their own lineup accordingly.”

    “Moon Rabbit might face an unprecedentedly difficult battle.”

    “Oh,” the Great Lord Biluo replied indifferently.

    Seeing its attitude, the Great Lord Bingqing’s eye twitched.

    Were you here to commentate or to… embarrass yourself…?

    “When are you going to repay me?”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Don’t play dumb! When are you going to repay me!? Answer me!!” Under the Great Lord Bingqing’s angry questioning, the Great Lord Biluo’s eyes became unfocused, entering a sleep mode… unique to Mechanical Species.

    In short, it had shut down…

    This old thing…

    The Great Lord Bingqing gritted its teeth and turned away, ignoring it.

    Soon, it was time for the match to begin.

    Under everyone’s gaze, including the Beast Tamers in Baiyue Province and Bimen Pass, and the fans of Shining Girls and Moon Rabbit, the two teams finally appeared.

    “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——!!!”

    As the 14 team members materialized on the stage…

    “Measure Your Code” VS Shining Girls, the battle began!!!

    However, seeing the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes, not only Baiyue Province, which was in a frenzy, but even the Great Lord Biluo’s previously unfocused eyes lit up.

    Moon Rabbit, Lian Xing…!!!

    It hadn’t been mistaken. She had actually reached this point.

    Compared to six months ago, she had become more mature, and her pet beast lineup was stronger!!!

    Only one step away from the final battle…

    Seeing the Great Lord Biluo on the commentary desk, Lian Xing waved at it, and the Great Lord Biluo smiled in response. This scene further confirmed the suspicions of the Great Lord Bingqing and many viewers.

    The Great Lord Biluo had found a wife…~~~~~

    It was surprising that the Great Lord Biluo, a Mechanical Species, would be interested in a woman like this.

    No wonder the higher-ups had been clueless. They hadn’t even understood the Great Lord Biluo’s preferences…

    At this moment, Moon Princess, in the Monday team’s resting room, was also watching the livestream. She seemed to have recovered from her previous dejection…

    After glancing at Lian Xing, she looked at the woman from Shining Girls, her expression grim.

    “Moon Rabbit, the reason I pulled myself together and shut out the Soul Hunters was because I’m curious… Just how strong are you?”

    “Facing this woman…can you still maintain your usual composure…?

    “…”
    “…”

    Under everyone’s gaze, on the other side of the stage, among the Shining Girls team members, a girl with long, purple hair stood at the center, like a moon surrounded by stars. She wore a thin, translucent white dress, her eyes dull and unfocused.

    Almost everyone who saw her was stunned…

    She was blind…!!!

    And she was also the apex of the Beast Tamer Alliance, a true king…

    Undefeated since her debut, the league champion for three consecutive years.

    The final obstacle between Lian Xing and the Ancient Juvenile Species…

    Shining Girls, Zi Meng!!!

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 131

    Chapter 131: Calamity Sun’s Gaze!!!

    “Boom!!!!”

    On the screen, a crimson energy particle, like a comet, streaked across the map. Seeing the motionless Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow lying on the ground, the entire Alliance livestream chat, including the Beast Tamers in Baiyue Province, fell silent. Chiyu’s die-hard fans were dumbfounded, speechless.

    The Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow was a highly evolved Sky-type Royal-Tier pet beast. How could it be instantly killed by this Heaven-Gracing Curtain…?

    This power wasn’t normal…!!!

    If the Mist Colt’s victory against the Golden Flower Flying Moon in the Hell Survival round, thanks to its defensive abilities, could still be explained…

    Then the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s one-hit kill of the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow in a direct confrontation…it was beyond their limited comprehension.

    At this moment, seeing this unbelievable scene, Xiao Jie, the commentator, her expression panicked, looked at the ice-haired woman beside her, her voice trembling, “G-Great Lord Bingqing, what…what is that Moonlight Rabbit? Even a Crimson combat skill shouldn’t be able to instantly kill the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow…”

    “…”
    “…”

    However, the Great Lord Bingqing simply smiled and remained silent, making Xiao Jie blush and fidget, unable to speak.

    Weren’t you so eager to talk before?

    Talk! Why aren’t you talking anymore?

    At this moment, the Great Lord Bingqing, while appearing silent on the surface, had already formed a hypothesis.

    Perfect evolution…

    Only perfect evolution could allow an ordinary pet beast to display such power, surpassing its tier.

    And it was a perfect evolution with an abnormally high level!!

    No wonder the Great Lord Biluo had been acting so strange recently, even borrowing money from her frequently. She had even suspected that it had found a new lover…

    — Meanwhile, sensing the loss of connection with the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, Chiyu’s face gradually turned pale.

    The battle was lost.

    The gap in strength was too vast…

    Even the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow had been instantly killed. The Inverted World, which wasn’t even a combat-type pet beast had no chance…

    Was this…the end…?

    However—

    At that moment…

    Her fiery red eyes widened, and she looked towards the area outside the city walls in disbelief, as her teammate’s panicked voice echoed in her ears.

    “Something’s coming…!!!”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Boom!!!!”

    Accompanied by a deafening roar, a white, humanoid rabbit, wreathed in a boiling wave of energy, descended from the sky, landing on the city wall like a cannonball. In the next second, the surrounding air rippled, and the entire area outside the city was engulfed in a shockwave.

    Commander-Tier, Biological Species, Heaven-Gracing Curtain!!

    At this moment, the Inverted City team members stared in horror.

    The vice-captain even ordered her pet beast to activate Awakening, preparing for a final stand.

    At the same time, sensing this powerful aura, the Inverted World immediately activated its visual distortion.

    “Whoosh!”

    A wave of greyish-white energy enveloped the Heaven-Gracing Curtain.

    Seeing this, the other three Royal-Tier pet beasts charged towards the Heaven-Gracing Curtain.

    “The Heaven-Gracing Curtain is a throwing-type pet beast! If we get close, we can easily defeat it!!” the vice-captain commanded through the team’s voice chat, her voice filled with confidence.

    Although she didn’t know how Captain Chiyu’s Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow had lost, if it had demoralized her to this extent, it must be related to this Heaven-Gracing Curtain.

    But even if this Commander-Tier pet beast had Royal-Tier level combat power, it couldn’t possibly use abilities other than throwing, right?

    However…

    Under everyone’s gaze, at that very moment…

    Facing the three charging pet beasts and its own distorted vision, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain seemed unaffected…

    It casually extended its two ears to its sides, then, in a relaxed manner, grabbed the rubble beneath its feet. Meanwhile, the closest Royal-Tier pet beast, which had activated Awakening, was almost within striking distance, but in the next second, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s ears slammed downwards, its movements faster than its opponent’s.

    [Sand Toss]

    “…”
    “…”
    “Boom!!!!”

    In the next second, without warning, the entire screen turned black and white.

    The closest pet beast exploded into a bloody mist.

    The Inverted World and the other two pet beasts were also sent flying, their bodies riddled with holes, their crystals shattered…

    At this moment, centered around the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s swinging ears, the entire map within the fan-shaped area began to fade, the structures within the city walls disappearing, the attack even reaching and destroying the core crystal deep within.

    Under everyone’s shocked gazes, the sky, the earth, the city walls…everything was reduced to dust by the sandstorm…

    On the screen, only the white rabbit remained, its path clear…

    Seeing this, the Great Lord Bingqing, on the commentary desk, narrowed its eyes.

    This was a Crimson Sand Toss…

    But this power wasn’t something a Crimson combat skill could achieve.

    There was something special hidden within this Heaven-Gracing Curtain…

    Perfect evolution?

    No, this unbelievable power, surpassing its tier…it couldn’t be explained by just perfect evolution!!!

    Moon Rabbit, Heaven-Gracing Curtain…

    The battle was officially over.

    The match between Inverted City and the “Measure Your Code” team had ended with an unbelievable score of 4:6.

    Half a minute later, as she was teleported back from the map, Chiyu, the red-haired woman in the curtain-like cheongsam, collapsed to the ground, her beautiful face ashen, as if she had been violated by thousands of people.

    A High-Tier evolved form of the Mist Colt had defeated Moon Princess.

    And a Commander-Tier Heaven-Gracing Curtain had crushed Inverted City.

    At this moment, looking at the stunning golden-haired girl with starry eyes at the center of the stage, no one could understand what she was… What level of Beast Tamer was she? And how long did she plan to keep up this act in the Alliance Competition?

    Meanwhile, Lian Xing looked down at the red-haired woman at her feet with an indifferent expression. She didn’t taunt, she didn’t gloat, she didn’t even step on her. She simply glanced at her, then turned and returned to the “Measure Your Code” team’s waiting area.

    Sitting down amidst her teammates’ awed and admiring gazes, Lian Xing, instead of being excited about the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s growth, frowned deeply.

    After a moment, she glanced at the Moonlight Rabbit, which was sleeping soundly on her head.

    Something was wrong…

    Very wrong!!!

    Lian Xing had expected the Heaven-Gracing Curtain to take seriously its fight against the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, at least revealing its Six Ears bloodline combat skill, but it had actually instantly killed the opponent with Star Plucker!!!

    And the power of that final Sand Toss had also been abnormal…

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain hadn’t used Six Ears, nor any other combat skills or Arcane Arts. It had simply watched some battle recordings for a few months and it had become this strong…? It was unbelievable…

    Was it cheating…?

    “Wait…!!!”

    Suddenly, Lian Xing’s starry eyes widened, as if she had realized something. She suppressed her urge to immediately examine the Moonlight Rabbit’s body and waited until the commentator announced the end of the match before logging out, without even greeting the audience or advertising anything.

    Seeing her hasty departure, the red-haired woman’s head drooped even lower.

    After defeating Moon Princess, Moon Rabbit had at least taunted her, but towards her…did she not even have the energy to insult her?



    Meanwhile, ignoring the outside world, Lian Xing, back in her private room, grabbed the Moonlight Rabbit and began examining its body.

    There were no visible abnormalities on the surface, just an ordinary lop-eared rabbit.

    However, as Lian Xing looked inside the Moonlight Rabbit’s right ear, her breath hitched, and her starry eyes widened.

    A deep, black sun pattern was imprinted deep within its ear.

    “…”
    “…”
    “As expected…I was right!!!”

    “But…when did this happen!?” At this moment, Lian Xing was truly shocked.

    This was…

    Calamity Sun’s mark!!!

    Just like how Tears Maiden, before even contracting with Rainwater, had already been changed by it, her aura and appearance transformed, holy teardrops appearing on her face…

    The Moonlight Rabbit was in the same situation!!!

    It hadn’t contracted with Calamity Sun, yet its throwing-type abilities had been completely infiltrated and influenced, beyond its control, even bearing the mark of a Legend.

    No wonder its growth had been so abnormal…

    Although this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, Lian Xing couldn’t understand what the Moonlight Rabbit had done to attract Calamity Sun’s attention…

    After pondering for a while, unable to find an answer, Lian Xing shook her head helplessly and placed the innocent-looking Moonlight Rabbit back on her head.

    “No matter what, this means that Calamity Sun favors you, right?”

    “You should be able to sense its location through this mark, right?”

    “It seems…there’s a possibility of using this…” As her mind calmed down, a scheming smile appeared on Lian Xing’s face.



    The “Measure Your Code” team’s 6:4 victory against Inverted City had caused a sensation in the Beast Tamer Alliance.

    Both Moon Princess and Chiyu had been defeated by the newcomer, Moon Rabbit. This shocking result had upended the entire league.

    The Moonlight Rabbit, previously an unpopular choice, had become a popular mascot…

    And Baiyue Province was in a frenzy. The price of Juvenile Moonlight Rabbits had reportedly increased tenfold.

    And during this month of peak popularity, the “Measure Your Code” team had won their next four matches, shutting out their opponents, their momentum unstoppable, climbing to 6th place in the overall rankings, only 3 points behind the 5th-ranked Soul Hunters.

    However, this excitement was soon overshadowed by even more shocking news…

    Meanwhile, in a private battle room in the Youyou Leize virtual battle region…

    After waiting for a while, a lightning-wreathed figure finally appeared before Lian Xing. It was a beautiful, elemental figure crackling with purple lightning, two lightning-shaped horns on its head. The Third Princess of Youyou Leize, Thunder Fly.

    Today was the day of the final race between the Mist Colt and Ephemeral, as agreed upon by Lian Xing and Thunder Fly.

    After this, Lian Xing wouldn’t accept any more rematches from Ephemeral.

    However, seeing Thunder Fly, Lian Xing’s expression changed slightly, then a look of satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

    “You succeeded…”

    “Yes, thanks to Little Star’s help~~~” Thunder Fly said with a smile, a pink halo floating above the lightning horns on her head.

    Although she had been punished for secretly using her family’s resources to trade for that Green Quality combat skill, and had been grounded for several months, the moment Ephemeral’s secret was revealed, the entire Youyou Leize had been in an uproar.

    Just as the Second Princess, under everyone’s gaze, was about to contract with Libra…the Third Princess, Thunder Fly, had shocked the entire pet beast world.

    “Next time we enter that place, that Moonwalker mother will probably know in advance, right? Besides our pet beast lineups, there doesn’t seem to be anything she can’t sense…”

    “Yes. And what about you, Little Star? Have you found your target yet?” Thunder Fly suddenly asked as Lian Xing was still reminiscing…

    Hearing this, Lian Xing paused, then looked at the expressionless Thunder Fly meaningfully.

    So…this girl had seen through her true intentions…

    [February 23rd, 427622, 1:20 AM, Ephemeral, one of the 72 Legends, formed a contract with the Third Princess of Youyou Leize. A new Legend Beast Tamer is born.]

    Meanwhile, only ten days remained until the final match between the “Measure Your Code” team and Dead Ash.

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 130p2

    Chapter 130:Low-Tier, Juvenile Species, Moonlight Rabbit!! p2

    “Sky-types were only defined after the birth of the Great Emperor Yun Jianyou. They transcend the limitations of ordinary avian pet beasts. Although they can’t use their wings and aren’t speed-focused, their combat style is incredibly extreme, and their speed is even greater than that of avian pet beasts of the same tier! They are the ultimate upgrade for avian types!!!” Although Xiao Jie wasn’t very professional, often misspeaking or mispronouncing things, she had been a main team member.

    She had been forced by her captain to memorize information about Inverted City, their former opponent.

    “…”
    “…”
    “Whoosh——!!!!!”

    In the next second, as the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow flapped its wings, its body vanished, transforming into a streak of crimson fire that circled the city, beginning its massacre.

    Along its path, nothing could be seen except for trails of flames. The dumbfounded viewers could only watch as the wild pet beasts in the Inverted City’s space melted one after another.

    In less than ten seconds, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow had single-handedly killed all the wild pet beasts at the five spawn points!!!

    At this moment, all the avian Beast Tamers, both in Baiyue Province and in other subordinate regions, were mesmerized by the flames, their hearts filled with envy and self-doubt.

    Sky-types…they were on a completely different level compared to avian types…

    Could avian types ever compare to Sky-types…?

    “So magnificent! This is the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s power! It seems Captain Chiyu will soon reach the opponent’s city!!!”

    “Hey, what’s Moon Rabbit doing? Why isn’t the Moonlight Rabbit evolving…?”

    “Could she really be here just to fill the numbers…?” Xiao Jie, the commentator, chattered excitedly, her spit flying everywhere.

    Xiao Jie, completely engrossed in her commentary, didn’t notice the Great Lord Bingqing beside her, who glanced at her with an indifferent expression.

    Didn’t she say she wasn’t experienced?

    Didn’t she say she would leave it to her?

    Why was she now monopolizing the commentary, not even giving her a chance to speak?

    Just commentate on the entire match yourself then. I’ll be quiet, the Great Lord Bingqing thought.

    Soon, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, having slaughtered all the monsters, was ready to teleport. Inverted World not only affected the opposing team, but also the wild pet beasts, preventing them from even launching a proper attack.

    At the same time, on the “Measure Your Code” team’s side, Captain Zi Ye and Black Magpie, their hearts pounding, activated Awakening.

    “Whoosh!!!”

    “Whoosh——!!!”

    Amidst the swirling dust, a small, purple flower began spraying poison in all directions, melting all the wild pet beasts approaching the city. Not only that, it even created pools of poison at the spawn points, instantly killing any newly spawned monsters.

    Since I can’t see the enemies’ distance, I’ll just clear the entire area…

    After creating the poison pools, the purple flower, its movements strange and unsteady, rushed towards another city gate. Captain Zi Ye tried to do the same, helping her teammates, but due to her distorted vision, she stumbled, and before she could even reach her destination, the world around her spun.

    This completely disoriented… both Zi Ye and her purple flower.

    Meanwhile, Black Magpie’s wife wasn’t doing much better, crashing into the sky and the ground, bouncing around like a pinball, seemingly drunk.

    This comical scene made the viewers laugh.

    Seeing this, Zi Ye sent a message through telepathy, “Moon Rabbit, we’re helpless… It’s all up to you now.”

    “Chiyu’s Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow should be teleporting soon. I’ll send you information about it!!”

    “Listen carefully!”

    “No need…” Lian Xing interrupted her.

    Then, under Zi Ye’s bewildered gaze, Lian Xing continued, “I don’t need enemy information. Don’t spoil it for me.”

    “…”
    “…”

    Hearing this, Zi Ye and the others were speechless.

    This was too arrogant…!!!

    Yes, Lian Xing never bothered researching her opponents’ stats or abilities. Just like in the Bimen Pass incident, she always fought “blind”.

    At this moment, no matter how many times their positions were shuffled by Inverted World, Lian Xing and the Moonlight Rabbit remained motionless, as if they had given up, making the Baiyue Province viewers anxious.

    Lian Xing, do something! This isn’t a child’s play like in Baiyue Province.

    Facing one of the kings of the Beast Tamer Alliance…stop being so casual…!!!

    Finally, after a long and agonizing wait, the Inverted City team, having cleared all the monsters, faced the final boss, which had the ability to awaken. And facing the awakened boss, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow also activated Awakening without hesitation.

    Then, with just a blur of motion, the boss’s body was pierced by flames, countless fiery sparks appearing on its body before it turned into charcoal  and crumbled…

    An instant kill…

    Seeing this, Xiao Jie swallowed hard.

    Her team had been annihilated by this form…

    The awakened Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow would ignite its own Pet Essence, causing anything it touched to explode repeatedly, completely transforming its combat style. It was like drawing the rarest character in a gacha game five or six times, maxing out its stars. Not only its stats were enhanced, but even its compatible lineups changed drastically!!!

    Terrifying power, incredible speed, combined with Inverted World’s disruptive support. Xiao Jie couldn’t understand how Moon Rabbit could be so confident in deploying a seemingly ordinary Moonlight Rabbit.

    “It’s over, Moon Rabbit~~~”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    As Chiyu’s whisper echoed, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s explosive aura descended upon the opponent’s city, turning the entire sky crimson. Sensing the terrifying heat, the faces of Black Magpie, Zi Ye, and the other “Measure Your Code” team members turned pale.

    Unlike the Golden Flower Flying Moon’s stable power, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow was known for its massive power boost after Awakening and its Sky-type speed.

    Just sensing its awakened aura filled them with despair…

    At this moment, under the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s sweeping aura, not only the “Measure Your Code” team’s pet beasts retreated frantically, but even the wild pet beasts were incinerated, their bodies piling up.

    But in the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s eyes, nothing else mattered.

    Its burning gaze was fixed on a single figure.

    Chiyu’s goal wasn’t to win this match, but to defeat Moon Rabbit in front of everyone, making her retract her arrogant words about Emperor’s blood being nothing special…!!!

    Therefore, before defeating Moon Rabbit, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow naturally wouldn’t use any dishonorable tactics like attacking the city’s core crystal.

    Under everyone’s gaze, as the entire Beast Tamer Alliance audience and the people in Baiyue Province held their breath…

    “Whoosh——!!!!!”

    With an explosive burst of air, the entire map transformed into a blazing inferno, and the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, its movements unimpeded, pierced through one of the city gates. Although its speed wasn’t as fast as the Mist Colt’s burst or even a fraction of Ephemeral’s, in the eyes of the viewers, it was still like a flash of light.

    It completely ignored Moon Rabbit’s other teammates, heading straight for the golden-haired girl!!!

    This was…

    A Sky-type Biological Species!!!

    However, just as the audience was still reeling from the deafening explosion and the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s speed, when it was less than ten kilometers away from Moon Rabbit and Lian Xing…

    Lian Xing, who had been afk the entire time, finally gave the Moonlight Rabbit the command to evolve…

    Moonlight Rabbit, Commander-Tier evolution!!!

    “Bang!!!”

    In the next second, smoke and mist erupted.

    Under everyone’s watchful eyes, a beautiful, white-furred, lop-eared rabbit slowly emerged. Its hands and feet were bound by shackles, its eyes covered by a white blindfold, as if it were wearing a bunny girl costume…

    Heaven-Gracing Curtain, making its grand entrance!!!

    The entire audience erupted!!!

    Seeing this, the people in Baiyue Province jumped up from their seats in excitement, wishing they could be there to cheer for Lian Xing.

    As expected, the Moonlight Rabbit had evolved!!

    It was no longer the Moon-Embracing Jade Hammer!!

    Now…it could finally fight against its opponent, right?

    However, unlike the excited students in Baiyue Province, the golden fox, watching from the Association branch, its initially expectant expression turning to confusion, felt something was off…

    No matter how it looked at it…this was the Commander-Tier Heaven-Gracing Curtain, right!?

    Had the Moonlight Rabbit failed to reach Royal-Tier…?

    Meanwhile, many viewers in the Beast Tamer Alliance were stunned.

    Yes, they were shocked and excited…

    Moon Rabbit’s hidden trump card…it was just a Commander-Tier newborn…? How could it possibly fight against an awakened Royal-Tier pet beast!?

    Even the Great Lord Bingqing, on the commentary desk, shook its head indifferently.

    Hopeless…

    Facing the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s unmatched Sky-type speed…

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain, a whole tier lower wouldn’t even have time to raise its hand…!!

    And under the influence of Inverted World’s distorted vision, it couldn’t possibly react in time.

    This wasn’t even a fight…

    “What a joke! ‘I don’t need enemy information.’ Since we’re all going to die anyway, even I could do that~~~~”

    “Clown ??”

    “Entertainment ??”

    “???? Moon Rabbit ????”

    “Scared the shit out of me! ‘I’ll Measure Your Code’ team!!” As the Beast Tamer Alliance viewers’ curiosity reached its peak, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s appearance was like a thunderbolt, not only shocking the haters, but even Moon Rabbit’s fans were confused…

    They had waited for an entire week…just to see a Commander-Tier pet beast get slaughtered…???

    Moon Rabbit, wake up!!!

    Under everyone’s gaze, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, wreathed in flames, reached the Heaven-Gracing Curtain. At this moment, under the influence of Inverted World’s distorted senses, Lian Xing could see the terrifying figure right before her. The aura of a peak Royal-Tier pet beast erupted, crushing the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s weak protective aura.

    Meanwhile, Chiyu, sensing the vast difference in power through the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s shared vision, finally relaxed.

    This farce was about to end…

    However…

    In the next second—

    “Buzz—”

    As the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s blindfold slowly fell, the Pet Essence in the entire world seemed to freeze, even the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s aura paused for an instant.

    The first to notice this was the Great Lord Bingqing, on the commentary desk, its usually indifferent eyes narrowing slightly.

    Then, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, about to collide with the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, also felt a mental shock, a tingling sensation in its scalp.

    Looking at those strange, cloud-like eyes…it was as if the other pet beast wasn’t even affected by Inverted World!!!

    But no matter what…

    It was just a Commander-Tier insect…

    It didn’t believe that the Heaven-Gracing Curtain could counterattack against its speed.

    It couldn’t possibly lose!!!

    “Whoosh!”

    Flames erupted, a wave of fire sweeping through the air.

    The Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow, its power greater than ever, pierced through the “Measure Your Code” team’s defenses, appearing before the Heaven-Gracing Curtain, its speed like a blazing meteor…

    At this moment, just as everyone thought the battle was about to end…

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain slowly raised an ear…

    So slow…

    Its movement was like slow motion…

    But it somehow surpassed the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s maximum speed!!!

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain, before the flames could even touch its body, extended one of its ear tips, aiming it directly at the crystal on the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s head. Meanwhile, unnoticed by anyone, a green current flowed through the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s body.

    It hadn’t activated its newly acquired Green Quality combat skill. That wasn’t meant for Chiyu, nor was it something to be revealed at this stage.

    But for some reason, after equipping that Green Quality combat skill, its body had begun to change uncontrollably, even its throwing power was constantly being enhanced…

    Even the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s terrifying speed was suppressed by this fleeting aura.

    At this moment, silence fell.

    In this frozen moment, a crimson light began to gather at the tip of the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s ear, aimed at the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s head. Like a miniature sun, the red particle’s energy intensified, reaching an unfathomable level.

    Chiyu, watching from afar, desperately tried to do something, but it was too late.

    “—Star Plucker—”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    In an instant, an explosion, like a meteor impact, echoed through the map, the ground beneath the Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s feet collapsing. And the crimson energy particle, accelerating rapidly, like a comet, pierced through the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow’s crystal, then vanished.

    Vision…?

    The Heaven-Gracing Curtain didn’t need such an inconvenient thing.

    With Heavenly Ruler’s god’s eye view…Inverted World’s rules were meaningless.

    At this moment, in the silent Beast Tamer Alliance livestream, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow remained motionless, as if frozen…

    A few seconds later, as the Heaven-Gracing Curtain lowered its ear, the fiery swan, its wings bound by chains, collapsed to the ground with a thud.

    The victor had been decided.

    Silence…

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 130p1

    Chapter 130:Low-Tier, Juvenile Species, Moonlight Rabbit!! p1

    Low-Tier, Juvenile Species, Moonlight Rabbit!!

    At this moment, as the two teams’ lineups were revealed, almost all the viewers in the Alliance Competition livestreams froze, their expressions filled with disbelief. Not only the “Measure Your Code” team members, but even Chiyu, the red-haired woman in the cheongsam, her eyes narrowed sharply.

    She had expected Moon Rabbit to either deploy the Mist Colt in the 5v5 Siege Battle for a final showdown, or simply give up on the top five.

    However, to Chiyu’s surprise, the opponent had revealed a completely new lineup!!!

    After a brief moment of shock, the livestream chat exploded.

    “So, Moon Rabbit has other pet beasts? Why is she only using it now? Is she just filling in the numbers…?”

    “And it’s a Low-Tier Juvenile Species! One of the three classic newborn strategies! Is she that determined to hide her evolution path…?”

    “No way, no way, does anyone really think this is a secret weapon…? If she could actually defeat Inverted City with this pet beast, why wait until they have almost no chance of reaching the top five?”

    “To be honest, deploying it at this stage does seem like she’s just filling the gap…but combined with Moon Rabbit’s title feels ominous…”

    “…”
    “…”

    At this moment, not only the viewers from various regions, but also Xiao Jie, the commentator, sensed a hint of danger, her casual demeanor turning serious.

    As everyone knew, almost 90% of Beast Tamers’ titles were derived from their first pet beast, or their strongest main battle pet beast, as a symbol and a personal brand…

    So, was there a possibility…

    That this seemingly ordinary Moonlight Rabbit was actually Moon Rabbit’s strongest pet beast!?

    Meanwhile, under everyone’s gaze, Lian Xing blinked, then looked at the Moonlight Rabbit on her head, her expression speechless…

    She hadn’t deliberately deployed a Low-Tier Juvenile Species to show off or grab attention. She had simply been using the Mist Colt in its newborn form and had momentarily forgotten that the rules here were different from those in Baiyue Province. In the Baiyue Province league, participants had to register their pet beast information with the devices first, then a virtual projection would appear.

    But the Alliance Competition’s technology was more advanced. The moment they appeared on stage, they had already brought all their pet beasts with them.

    Because the Moonlight Rabbit had been emitting the aura of its Juvenile form, it had been automatically registered as a Low-Tier Moonlight Rabbit.

    She had been too focused on using the Mist Colt…

    But this minor mistake didn’t matter.

    She could just evolve it again at the start of the match, wasting a bit of stamina~~~

    As Lian Xing felt a bit embarrassed, Zi Ye, the captain, standing behind her, said with a wry smile, “Little Moon Rabbit, the final round is up to you…”

    “We can’t count on ourselves~~~”

    On the lineup list, Chiyu hadn’t lied. She had deployed her four main pet beasts in the other three rounds, one in the 3v3, one in the 1v1, and two in the 5v5, clearly intending to prevent the “Measure Your Code” team from scoring any more points.

    Undoubtedly, with the “Measure Your Code” team members’ current strength, they couldn’t defeat Chiyu.

    So, the outcome of this match…it all depended on Lian Xing’s Moonlight Rabbit!!!

    “First round, 3v3 Rotation Battle, please come on stage!!!”



    “Bang!!!”

    Five minutes later, under Little Sheep’s pale gaze, her main pet beast was crushed by the Inverted City vice-captain’s third pet beast.

    The 3v3 round ended, and the “Measure Your Code” team members hadn’t even seen Chiyu, who was supposed to be the last one. Black Magpie, their only real fighter, after desperately defeating the first opponent, had been weakened by the Inverted City vice-captain and then swiftly defeated.

    However, facing this one-sided match, the chat didn’t even react.

    Even the Inverted City team members seemed distracted…

    After all, everyone knew that no matter what happened in the previous rounds, the final outcome was predetermined…

    These two teams would definitely reach the final 5v5 Siege Battle with a score of 4:3!!!

    As expected, soon, Baimu, sweating profusely, returned from the stage after facing one of Chiyu’s main pet beasts in the 1v1 Single Pet Battle.

    “Measure Your Code” team, 0:4!!!

    “Completely outmatched…”

    “I’ve never encountered a pet beast of this level in the 1v1 before. I’ve never felt such despair…such a gap in strength…”

    “But now… I finally understand how Little Moon Rabbit felt facing someone like Moon Princess!!!” Baimu, the green-haired woman, said, sighing.

    They usually avoided or adjusted their lineups when facing opponents of this level. They rarely engaged in a direct confrontation.

    However, hearing this, Lian Xing blinked, confused.

    What was so special about Moon Princess’s level? Was her aura that oppressive…?

    She had lost to her in the end…

    In her opinion, it should be the other way around. They should be the ones feeling nervous facing her~~~

    Of course, Moon Princess’s influence in the Beast Tamer Alliance was deeply rooted, so even if she defeated her in the 4v4, she wouldn’t gain any prestige…

    Few people would fear or respect her.

    Unless…

    In the final round, in the 5v5 Siege Battle, she crushed Inverted City in a direct confrontation!!!

    Next, as expected, Inverted City threw the 4v4 Hell Survival round, sending out a few reserve members who were quickly defeated before the NPC reached its third Royal-Tier evolution.

    The Mist Colt, using a cannon to kill mosquitoes, secured 3 points.

    “Measure Your Code” team: 3 points!

    Inverted City: 4 points!

    And then, under everyone’s gaze, the final 5v5 Siege Battle arrived.

    Although this was Moon Rabbit Lian Xing’s first time participating in a round other than the 4v4 Hell Survival, it was the main event, the previous rounds having become dull and meaningless…in comparison.

    “Great Lord Bingqing, I don’t have much experience in commentating, so I’ll leave it to you~~” Xiao Jie, the commentator, said, preparing to shift the responsibility. She was afraid she wouldn’t even be able to follow the battle.

    The Great Lord Bingqing, adjusting the snowflake hairpin on its head, nodded indifferently.

    Meanwhile, in Baiyue Province…

    Everyone watched the golden-haired girl, a Moonlight Rabbit on her head, walking onto the stage, their breath held.

    After six months, the Moonlight Rabbit had finally reappeared.

    Had it become stronger?

    Had it evolved again?

    Could it defeat a peak awakened Royal-Tier pet beast!?

    The answer would be revealed after the commercial break…

    [A thousand years of refinement creates brilliance, health and safety achieve the peak.]

    [Love her, give her the best.]

    [Rain Caller brand pet food, let your baby say goodbye to picky eating — Rain Caller Pet Food Store, a taste even Emperor-Tier pet beasts can’t forget.]

    Just as the crucial battle was about to begin, the Beast Tamer Alliance suddenly inserted a three-minute pet food commercial, annoying the viewers. Although it was indeed a product of the Rain Caller Marquis, even a fool knew that Emperor-Tier pet beasts wouldn’t eat pet food…

    But finally, as the commercial ended, the 5v5 map finished generating, and the team members appeared on the screen.

    5v5 Siege Battle. Two giant cities, protected by a special mechanism, appeared on the map.

    As everyone knew, for Royal-Tier battles, terrain was meaningless. Under their terrifying aura, obstacles didn’t exist, they would be obliterated in the first second.

    So, the protected city walls wouldn’t be destroyed, and there were only five entrances for the wild pet beasts and the opposing team to attack.

    Unless you were like the Dead Ash team, which could shatter the entire map from a distance…there was no way to cheat and win.

    At this moment, under the viewers’ gaze, the long countdown finally ended.

    “Buzz——!!!”

    The first to summon her pet beast was Chiyu, the captain of Inverted City. Flames erupted from her skin, the scorching heat blowing her red hair upwards. Then, with a surge of life force, a giant, illusory hourglass constellation appeared in the sky.

    Inverted World!!!

    The moment this Royal-Tier pet beast appeared, the world before the other eight pet beasts, including Chiyu’s teammates and the “Measure Your Code” team, became distorted and chaotic. Although the viewers couldn’t see it, the participants’ confused expressions revealed their disorientation…

    Inverted World, an incredibly rare Rule-type Weapon Species, capable of affecting the vision and perception of all pet beasts within its range!!!

    Suddenly, without warning, the positions of all the “Measure Your Code” team’s pet beasts, including Lian Xing and the Moonlight Rabbit, were randomly shuffled, Lian Xing and the Moonlight Rabbit appearing in a random corner.

    And seeing the Royal-Tier wild pet beasts approaching the city gates, everyone frantically rushed back to their positions, the scene chaotic…

    Seeing this familiar scene, Xiao Jie, the commentator, excitedly explained, “Inverted World, not only can it affect the perception of pet beasts within a certain range, but it can also randomly shuffle their positions every few seconds! It’s a god-tier support pet beast for Siege Battles! Even Moon Princess struggled against it!!!”

    “Speaking of which, I was also affected by Inverted World before I retired! There was a wild pet beast that was clearly several kilometers away, but to me and my pet beast, it looked like a giant mountain right in front of us!!”

    “Under the influence of Inverted World’s rules, pet beasts can’t judge distance accurately, sometimes even unable to see enemies right in front of them!!!”

    “Unlike ordinary illusions, this is an absolute rule, a law that must be obeyed!!”

    “…”
    “…”
    “What the hell!?”

    “That’s too unfair…!” Seeing the “Measure Your Code” team members struggling to return to their positions, the Baiyue Province viewers were outraged.

    This was Siege Battle! If they couldn’t even stay in their defensive positions, wouldn’t they be giving away the entrances to the enemy!?

    Especially for Moon Rabbit, who relied on throwing tactics…wasn’t this practically sealing 90% of her strength!?

    However, under everyone’s gaze, the golden-haired girl with starry eyes remained motionless, seemingly having given up on returning to her defensive position.

    Meanwhile, shortly after Inverted World appeared, Chiyu’s other main battle pet beast, enveloped in flames, also emerged. This pet beast was her true ace, the origin of her title.

    Under the horrified gazes of the Baiyue Province viewers, a giant swan, its body engulfed in red flames, appeared. And although it was a swan, its wings were bound by countless black chains. Its scorching aura, like a raging inferno, made the viewers feel a wave of oppressive heat… even through the screen.

    “Captain Chiyu’s strongest symbol, the Sky-type Biological Species, the Flame Dancing Red Eyebrow!!!”

    “Many viewers might not be familiar with Sky-types, so let me explain~~~”

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 129

    Chapter 129: Moonlight Rabbit, A Shocking Debut!!!

    2nd-level region, Beast Tamer Alliance.

    Inside the central meeting room of the headquarters building, three elegant women sat around a table, their expressions grim as they examined the documents and intelligence reports before them. To be present in this room meant that they were among the highest-ranking members of the Beast Tamer Alliance, standing at the pinnacle of the pet beast world!

    The woman sitting on the east side had long, flowing black and white hair, like the feathers of a divine bird, her eyes almost completely black, only a small white dot at the center.

    Thousand Year Marquis, one of the Four Marquises of the Beast Tamer Alliance, a wild Emperor-Tier pet beast!!

    Sitting opposite her was a beautiful woman with long, golden, curly hair, dressed in a noble golden robe with crescent moon patterns, her eyes marked with a full moon, her aura incredibly powerful, like a goddess…

    Hidden Moon Marquis, one of the Four Marquises of the Beast Tamer Alliance, an Emperor-Tier Beast Tamer!!

    And finally, the blue-haired woman sitting beside them, her hair flowing like liquid, her eyes shimmering with watery ripples, her aura gentle and calming.

    Rain Caller Marquis, one of the Four Marquises of the Beast Tamer Alliance, a hybrid Emperor-Tier Beast Tamer!!

    At this moment, looking at the information in their hands, the three Emperors’ expressions were grim. After a long silence, the Thousand Year Marquis spoke first, its voice hesitant, “This year’s Interdimensional Grand Finals, should we still let Dead Ash participate?”

    “Dead Ash is our Alliance’s only chance to rise again. If she doesn’t achieve a high ranking, it will not only affect her evolution path but also the concentration of her Ancient blood.”

    “What monsters are these!?”

    “…”
    “…”
    “How about letting Dead Ash train for a few more years…until she’s more mature…?” the Rain Caller Marquis suggested cautiously.

    But the Hidden Moon Marquis immediately interrupted her, “It’s useless. With the current level of competition, Dead Ash won’t gain anything from training. Those who can dominate the Grand Finals at this stage will only become even stronger in the next few years, easily crushing her.”

    “And have you seen? Tears Maiden of Worry-Free Pond is only 16 years old, three years younger than Dead Ash. Even if Dead Ash exceeds the age limit, she won’t be able to avoid Tears Maiden!!!”

    As the Hidden Moon Marquis finished speaking, the Thousand Year Marquis sighed, nodding in agreement. “We’ve already hidden Dead Ash for three years, preventing her from participating in the Grand Finals. But if we continue like this, we’ll ruin her. Whether she wins or loses, she has to experience it…”

    “And Dead Ash’s strength is undeniable. Perhaps she can even win first place~~~”

    Win first place…?

    Hearing this, both the Hidden Moon Marquis and the Rain Caller Marquis looked at the information in their hands, then fell silent.

    [2nd-level region, Wind Sand Region, Snow Sun, 19 years old, Legend Beast Tamer, possesses the Royal-Tier evolved form of Black Sun Flame, one of the 72 Legends, T0-level contender for the championship.] (T0 -Tier 0)

    [2nd-level region, Worry-Free Pond, Tears Maiden, 16 years old, Legend Beast Tamer, possesses Rainwater, one of the 72 Legends, T0-level contender for the championship.]

    [2nd-level region, City of Awe, Little Flower Goddess, 18 years old, hybrid with eight Throne-Level plant-type bloodlines, T0-level contender for the championship.]

    [2nd-level region, Youyou Leize, Second Princess, 25 years old, descendant of Yun Jianyou, suspected to be the target of Libra, one of the 72 Legends, T0-level contender for the championship.]

    [2nd-level region, Beast Tamer Alliance, Dead Ash, 19 years old, possesses an Ancient Juvenile Species, T0-level contender for the championship. Note: A T0 contender every year, hidden every year.]

    Winning first place…

    It seemed a bit difficult…

    But even though the Beast Tamer Alliance was at the bottom of the 2nd-level regions, Dead Ash was still considered a T0-level contender.

    This was undoubtedly the Beast Tamer Alliance’s chance to rise again, to prove their strength to the world.

    Actually, they had planned to let Dead Ash participate after she reached Royal-Tier, but now, with the current level of competition within the Alliance, it seemed impossible for the Ancient Juvenile Species to evolve further…

    And because of the news about its Ancient bloodline, Dead Ash’s popularity and support were incredibly high, but she was still only a Commander-Tier Beast Tamer, participating in a Royal-Tier competition was a disadvantage.

    So, if she only managed to reach the top ten, it wouldn’t be enough for the Beast Tamer Alliance.

    And this year’s competition was fierce…

    Usually, there were only two or three T0 contenders.

    This year, so many monsters had appeared.

    Snow Sun, Tears Maiden, Little Flower Goddess… their information had only been revealed recently, along with the announcement of their participation in the Interdimensional Grand Finals.

    The Beast Tamer Alliance, initially confident, had planned to unleash Dead Ash this year, but now they were hesitant, even considering hiding her again…

    But having reached this point, they had no choice…

    If they didn’t let her participate this year, Dead Ash’s fighting spirit and experience would be eroded…!!

    By the way, although Shining Girls’ fame within the Beast Tamer Alliance was comparable to Dead Ash’s, the Grand Finals evaluation committee had only given her a T3 ranking.

    Just then, the Hidden Moon Marquis suddenly remembered something and looked at the Thousand Year Marquis curiously. “By the way, your girl’s match is today, right? And it’s against that infamous Moon Rabbit. Aren’t you going to watch it personally?”

    “…”
    “…”
    “I don’t want to ruin my mood and my appetite~~”

    “Speaking of which, Moon Princess lost so badly…why aren’t you reacting at all?” the Thousand Year Marquis asked, frowning slightly.

    Hearing this, the Hidden Moon Marquis chuckled.

    “Don’t say that. We Beast Tamers and you pet beasts have different educational approaches. At their age, I was still playing with mud in the village. I think she did very well~~~~”

    Then, the Hidden Moon Marquis’s gentle expression turned serious.

    “But that Moon Rabbit…something’s not right about her…”

    “Even against my child, she still chose to hide her lineup until the very end…”

    “This strange behavior…it’s as if she’s targeting someone specific!!!”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Hahaha~~~”

    “Hahahahahahaha!!!” After a moment of silence, the Rain Caller Marquis suddenly burst into laughter, as if she had heard a joke, her body shaking uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.

    A few seconds later, even the Hidden Moon Marquis chuckled awkwardly.

    Had she been overthinking it?

    Why would anyone deliberately provoke an Ancient Juvenile Species…?



    [Rank 7, I’ll Measure Your Code]

    [VS]

    [Rank 2, Inverted City]

    Inverted City had been an unknown team, consistently ranked below 100, only known for its captain’s incredibly rare Rule-type Weapon Species pet beast.

    Royal-Tier Weapon Species, Inverted World.

    After its master died during a journey, Inverted World had been taken in by the young Chiyu. Then, to fulfill her former master’s last wish, Chiyu, after entering the league, had joined the disbanding Inverted City team, then, single-handedly, turned it into a powerhouse in the Alliance.

    9 PM, the livestream began.

    “Everyone, everyone, look who’s sitting beside me! Keep your eyes peeled! And be respectful! No nonsense…!!!” Xiao Jie, the commentator, said excitedly, gesturing towards the beautiful woman beside her, who forced a smile and waved awkwardly at the camera. The woman had long hair made of ice, her skin as white as snow, her appearance stunning, like a pristine snow goddess.

    Seeing her, the livestream chat exploded.

    “Great Lord Bingqing! Today’s guest is actually the Great Lord Bingqing!!! They usually only invite Monarch-Tier commentators for matches between the top five teams, right?”

    “Yeah, with Xiao Jie’s level, she can’t even understand high-level battles. She just babbles incoherently. We can’t rely on her~~~”

    “It can’t be helped. Moon Rabbit just defeated Moon Princess. This match is definitely top-five level. Having a Monarch-Tier commentator is reasonable…!!”

    “Great Lord Bingqing, I want to be your dog!!!”

    Great Lord Bingqing, one of the elders of the Beast Tamer Alliance, known as the most beautiful Great Lord, consistently ranked first in the Most Popular Monarch list.

    According to rumors, she had never had a lover or a master, completely uninterested in such things.

    Therefore, the devotion and insanity of her fans were beyond human comprehension…

    However, at this moment…

    An inappropriate comment appeared on the screen.

    [(Baiyue Province) Nimble-Fingered Xiao Kui: I want to ride the Great Lord Bingqing.]

    “…”
    “…”
    “???”

    The chat suddenly fell silent, and Xiao Jie broke out in a cold sweat.

    Who the hell was this Xiao Kui? And what was Baiyue Province? She had never heard of it!!

    But…

    If she remembered correctly, this Xiao Kui had already made several outrageous comments!?

    Not to mention, insulting a Monarch-Tier pet beast…

    Under everyone’s gaze, the Great Lord Bingqing’s expression remained unchanged, but Xiao Jie, sitting beside her, was drenched in sweat, her face pale, as she forced a calm expression and looked away from the chat.

    A moment later, the viewers, recovering from their initial shock, began bombarding Xiao Kui with insults, burying her offensive comment. Xiao Jie finally sighed in relief.

    Meanwhile, the people in Baiyue Province were also terrified, cursing at Xiao Kui.

    That moment of silence had only lasted for three seconds, but it had felt like an eternity…

    If the Great Lord Bingqing was vindictive, Baiyue Province would be doomed…

    After this minor incident, it was finally time for the two teams to appear.

    “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!”

    “Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!!!”

    The 14 members of the “Measure Your Code” and Inverted City teams appeared on opposite sides of the virtual stage.

    At this moment, all eyes were on the golden-haired girl with starry eyes. Unlike her previous innocent and unassuming image, this time, it was clear that she was the center of the “Measure Your Code” team.

    This was Lian Xing, the one who had defeated Moon Princess and the Golden Flower Flying Moon, the one who had declared that Emperor’s blood was nothing special…!!!

    Chiyu, the woman with the red high bun, sitting in the Inverted City section, glanced at Lian Xing without saying a word.

    Her intentions were clear.

    She would give them the 3 points from the 4v4, but they wouldn’t get anything else.

    Under everyone’s gaze, the two teams began registering their pet beast lineups.

    If nothing unexpected happened, Moon Rabbit would continue using the Mist Colt in the 4v4, giving up on reaching the top five. After all, even if they got past Inverted City, Shining Girls and Dead Ash were still insurmountable obstacles.

    Unless she wanted to spite Captain Chiyu and deploy the Mist Colt in another round, trying to trick her.

    But that would play right into Chiyu’s hands.

    Chiyu clearly didn’t want to compete with the Mist Colt in terms of defense or speed. In fact, she had deliberately announced her strategy of deploying her main pet beasts in the other three rounds to force Moon Rabbit into a direct confrontation.

    “…”
    “…”

    However…

    Half a minute later, as the lineups were revealed, almost the entire Alliance was stunned.

    At this moment, everyone stared at the list in disbelief.

    This was an outcome they had never imagined.

    Meanwhile, unlike the silence in the 2nd-level Beast Tamer Alliance, Baiyue Province was in an uproar, the Youlan Academy students jumping up from their seats in excitement.

    The Mist Colt was indeed participating in the 4v4 Hell Survival.

    But in the final 5v5 Siege Battle…. Lian Xing had deployed a second pet beast.

    This was Lian Xing’s signature pet beast, the origin of her title and fame in Baiyue Province!!!

    Low-Tier, Juvenile Species, Moonlight Rabbit!!!

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 128

    Chapter 128: Heaven-Gracing Curtain’s Debut!!!

    Sheathing, a battle form unique to Weapon Species.

    As everyone knew, Weapon Species needed a wielder to unleash their true power. Without a wielder, they were useless, worse than garbage. Especially when fighting against wild pet beasts, a Weapon Species without a partner was considered the weakest, only slightly better than support-type Elemental Species and parts-type Mechanical Species.

    However, this didn’t apply to Weapon Species that had mastered Sheathing.

    A Weapon Species that had activated Sheathing gained the power to fight independently, receiving a significant power boost, similar to the awakened forms of the other four types. Weapon Species themselves could also awaken, but it was incredibly rare, only those with exceptional compatibility and synergy with their wielders could achieve it.

    So, a Weapon Species that could use Sheathing was a good weapon. Whether it could awaken or not depended on…fate~~~

    At this moment, four months after the Bimen Pass incident, the Golden Leaf, having absorbed Qing Zhanwan’s crystal core, had finally mastered the Sheathing technique, indirectly fulfilling the requirements for a new transcendent evolution path.

    Actually, Lian Xing had recently sensed that the Red Prison Palace Master’s absorption of crystal energy had reached its saturation point.

    Its fourth and fifth stage combined Arcane Arts, Azure Edge and Penetration, had almost stopped improving.

    And among its fifth stage Arcane Arts, although Heavenly Graffiti and Desperate Gamble hadn’t reached their limits, they could only receive a third of their potential enhancement.

    In other words, the Red Prison Palace Master, a Super Rare Species on the verge of High-Tier, having achieved mutated evolution was starting to fall behind…

    Even if she continued enhancing its Arcane Arts, it wouldn’t be able to face that Ancient Juvenile Species.

    Star Sand, participating in high-difficulty instances in Youyou Leize every day, had reached level 42. Although it was still far from evolving to Commander-Tier, it at least had the advantage of four Arcane Art points.

    The Cloud Dream Calamity was even more impressive. Its explosive speed in the last match, leaving everyone in the dust, had shocked the entire league, even Lian Xing herself had been stunned.

    She even suspected that the Cloud Dream Calamity’s speed at that moment had rivaled the Monarch-Tier Heaven’s Cry Thunderclap Hairpin.

    A truly flawless Throne-Level evolution!!!

    And her trump card, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain…

    It currently had three Crimson Quality combat skills, another Green Quality combat skill on its way, and it watched recordings of throwing-type pet beast battles in Youyou Leize every day. Its current combat power was vastly different from its state during the Bimen Pass incident.

    And finally, the Red Prison Palace Master…

    Besides consuming crystals every day, there wasn’t much else it could do to improve.

    A bloodline combat skill without mastering Sheathing was out of reach…

    And coincidentally, at this very moment, the Golden Leaf had mastered Sheathing~~~

    ***

    “Measure Your Code” team, private room.

    Lian Xing checked the Golden Leaf’s current status and quickly analyzed its future evolution paths.

    Three Royal-Tier evolution paths were currently available for the next level…Super Rare Species:

    “The rarest, closest to Throne-Level, known for its pure power and overwhelming pressure, the Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor!!”

    “Super Rare, a more gentle path, known for its growth potential and support capabilities, the Sun-Seizing Divine Capital!!!”

    “And finally, an ordinary Super Rare Species, but exceptionally suited for ambushes and assassinations, the Hidden Soul Within!!”

    An ordinary Beast Tamer would undoubtedly choose the rarest, the Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor, without hesitation.

    But if Lian Xing did that…it would mean she had lost her mind.

    The Golden Leaf was a transcendent evolution product. How could she simply choose based on rarity?

    If she chose the Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor for the Red Prison Palace Master’s next evolution path, she might as well give up… What about the remaining transcendent evolution paths?

    The Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor’s rarity was among the highest for Super Rare Species, especially at Royal-Tier.

    This meant that the Golden Leaf’s fourth transcendent evolution path would be locked at Monarch-Tier, Throne-Level.

    Otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to absorb the Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor!!

    A Throne-Level Monarch-Tier path…heh…

    Who would provide the evolution resources?

    Would she have to sell herself…?

    Lian Xing sighed inwardly and skipped the initially appealing Sky-Boiling Giant Anchor, considering the Sun-Seizing Divine Capital and the Hidden Soul Within.

    The Sun-Seizing Divine Capital had been her original plan for the Golden Leaf’s Royal-Tier evolution path. Unexpectedly, due to a series of coincidences, the Golden Leaf had achieved mutated evolution, and now, thanks to its transcendent form, it had returned to this crossroads. How ironic…

    The Hidden Soul Within Lian Xing’s current favorite…

    Although this path wasn’t as powerful as the other two, it could minimiz …the Golden Leaf’s rarity, making the fourth Monarch-Tier transcendent evolution path less difficult.

    However, she also had a concern: could the Hidden Soul Within’s will completely suppress the Amber Palace?

    The Hidden Soul Within’s rarity, even at Royal-Tier, was average. But the Amber Palace had already reached the threshold of Super Rare at High-Tier.

    What if the suppression failed, cutting off the Red Prison Palace Master’s final evolution path?

    After much deliberation, Lian Xing finally made her decision.



    Beast Tamer Alliance, Inverted City team, meeting room.

    Chiyu, the woman with fiery red hair styled in a high bun, sat alone at the table, seemingly on a video call, her expression grim. She sat upright, her phone placed on her chest…

    Only the black and white hem of a tuxedo was visible on the other end of the video call.

    “Moon Rabbit’s arrogant words, publicly humiliating Moon Princess, not only insulted the Hidden Moon Marquis but also tarnished the reputation of all Emperors in the Beast Tamer Alliance! I will not tolerate this!!”

    “In the next match, I will crush Moon Rabbit!!!”

    “Please rest assured, my lord, I will not disappoint you…!!!” At this moment, Chiyu, the captain of Inverted City, one of the renowned kings of the Beast Tamer Alliance, was groveling before the mysterious person on the other end of the video call, her eyes filled with adoration and respect…

    If her fans saw her pathetic behavior, her image would be ruined, her fame and popularity plummeting.

    However, the tuxedo-clad figure on the other end of the call seemed unimpressed…

    It let Chiyu rant for a while, then simply let out a cold snort and said, “Chiyu, you were too reckless, challenging Moon Rabbit in front of billions of viewers. Didn’t you consider the consequences?”

    “The Great Lord Biluo’s time is running out… The entire Alliance is desperately searching for a suitable contractor. And at this crucial moment, Moon Rabbit appeared, yet you chose to provoke her. What if you influence the Great Lord Biluo’s decision, causing it to give up on extending its lifespan and refuse a contract, leaving the Beast Tamer Alliance without a Monarch-Tier pet beast? Can you bear that responsibility?”

    “And so what if Moon Princess was humiliated? Are you close to her? Don’t drag the entire Beast Tamer Alliance into your personal vendetta…!!” With every word the mysterious person spoke, Chiyu’s face became paler.

    In just a few seconds, she was drenched in sweat, beads of perspiration trickling down her smooth, white thighs, her already revealing cheongsam becoming almost transparent…

    And as the other person finished speaking, Chiyu’s expression changed drastically, and she frantically tried to explain, “No, Mother, I just…”

    “Silence!!!” Before Chiyu could finish, an angry shout came from the other end of the call.

    Chiyu flinched like a frightened rabbit…

    “Who am I?”

    “The…Thousand Year Marquis…” Chiyu replied meekly, lowering her head.

    “…”
    “…”
    “Good, you remember—”

    “But that Moon Rabbit…although young…she sees things clearly…”

    “Emperor’s blood, Emperor’s blood…heh…in the end…it’s nothing…” With a self-deprecating sigh, the Thousand Year Marquis ended the call.

    Hearing the unexpected praise for Moon Rabbit, the red-haired woman froze for a dozen seconds, then her expression twisted in rage as she slammed her phone onto the table. At this moment, her eyes burned with fury, and her red cheongsam, under her rising body temperature, turned to ash, revealing the undeveloped flame-like feathers on her back.

    Clearly, these undeveloped feathers indicated that her beast bloodline was so thin that it was barely visible…

    As flames surged around her body, revealing more of her skin, Chiyu clenched her fists, her knuckles cracking.

    “Unforgivable…unforgivable…I will never forgive you, Moon Rabbit!!!”

    “Making Mother so…disappointed…in me…”

    “I will crush you!!!”

    “…”
    “…”
    “And then…I’ll let you experience the true power of Emperor’s blood up close. By then…crying won’t help!!!” Chiyu snarled, then, picking up her heat-resistant phone, sent a message to the Inverted City team’s vice-captain.

    [Immediately arrange 50 companions for me…]

    [No, I’m feeling fiery today. I want 100!!!]

    […]

    […]

    [Yes, Captain. I’ll post a recruitment notice in the fan group~~~]

    A reply came within ten seconds.

    It seemed that although Chiyu hadn’t inherited the Emperor’s talent or abilities, she had certainly inherited its appetite…



    Meanwhile, in the “I’ll Measure Your Code” team’s resting room…

    The livestream was showing the match between the Monday team and the “I Really Want to Eat Shit” team. Although Moon Princess wasn’t participating, which had caused a stir, the Monday team, led by their vice-captain, still achieved a 10:0 victory. Fire Ban Bai Feng, who had participated in the Bimen Pass incident, was also on the “I Really Want to Eat Shit” team, her expression on screen as if she had just eaten shit…

    The “Measure Your Code” team members weren’t particularly impressed.

    Although they were both sponsored by the Great Lord Biluo, the “I Really Want to Eat Shit” team’s overall strength was weak. Being shut out by the Monday team was to be expected.

    Speaking of which, if not for Moon Rabbit, they would have also been shut out…

    “Buzz!!!”

    Just then, as the resting room door opened, everyone turned to look. A golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes, a Moonlight Rabbit on her head, her expression calm, walked in.

    At this moment, seeing their familiar yet unfamiliar teammate, the “Measure Your Code” team members fell silent.

    Captain Zi Ye, Black Magpie, Baimu, Little Sheep…those who were usually close to Lian Xing were speechless.

    It was as if a terrifying Beast Tamer like Moon Princess had just appeared before them.

    They still couldn’t quite accept this reality.

    That infamous Moon Princess…she had actually been dethroned by their team’s newcomer…

    That was Emperor’s blood. How could she have lost!?

    Just then, under everyone’s awed gazes, Lian Xing spoke, “Captain Zi Ye, what was that big-breasted woman’s threat about? How many more matches do we need to win to reach the top five!?”

    “…”
    “…”

    After a moment of silence, Zi Ye explained, “There are only seven matches left this season, and we’re still 14 points behind the 5th-ranked Soul Hunters. We still have to face Inverted City, Shining Girls, and Dead Ash. It’s practically impossible for us to advance.”

    “So… we’ve already given up… Moon Rabbit, don’t accept Chiyu’s provocation. You don’t have to participate in any rounds besides the 4v4!!”

    After hearing Zi Ye’s explanation and discouragement, Lian Xing turned to look at the overall match schedule on the side screen. According to the schedule, the Soul Hunters still had to face Shining Girls and Monday, two top teams.

    And with their strength, they would definitely be shut out by Shining Girls.

    Because, besides the 4 points they had lost against Dead Ash in a private match, Shining Girls currently had a perfect record!!!

    The demoralized Monday team was unpredictable, but it was unlikely that the Soul Hunters could shut them out. They would definitely trade points.

    And in the Soul Hunters’ remaining five matches, four of their opponents were among the top 20 teams. The probability of them losing points was high.

    On the other hand, the “Measure Your Code” team, besides Inverted City, Shining Girls, and Dead Ash, their remaining four opponents weren’t even in the top 20. The chance of them shutting out their opponents was high.

    So, they weren’t completely hopeless…

    In that case…

    “…”
    “…”
    “In the next match, against Inverted City, I’ll deploy another pet beast~~~”

    As the golden-haired girl’s casual words echoed through the resting room, everyone’s expressions turned to disbelief.

    Besides that Mist Colt…did Moon Rabbit have another pet beast capable of facing an opponent like Inverted City?

    Meanwhile, the Moonlight Rabbit on Lian Xing’s head yawned lazily.

    After four months of inactivity, the Heaven-Gracing Curtain was finally making its debut in the Beast Tamer Alliance!!!

  • I’m Surrounded by My Own Pets! 127

    Chapter 127: Transcendence, Golden Leaf’s Third Evolution Path!!!

    “In the end, your Emperor’s blood…”

    “It’s just this level…”

    At this moment, as Lian Xing’s arrogant words echoed, almost everyone in the Beast Tamer Alliance was stunned. Bimen Pass and Baiyue Province fell silent.

    At the competition venue, not only Moon Princess, who sat paralyzed on the ground, her eyes unfocused, but even Chiyu, the red-haired woman on the commentary desk, her eyes narrowed sharply. After a brief moment of shock, Xiao Jie, the commentator, tried to cut the livestream feed, but it was too late. Her hand reached for the emergency stop button, but it was blocked by Chiyu’s ample bosom. She tried to reach over Chiyu’s head, but…

    In the next second…

    Chiyu pushed her back down into her seat.

    Under everyone’s gaze, the red-haired woman’s expression was furious. She stood up and glared at the golden-haired girl with starry eyes on the screen.

    “I can’t just ignore that!!”

    “…”
    “…”

    At the same time, after Lian Xing’s words, Moon Princess’s gaze became unfocused. Actually, she knew deep down…

    Just as Moon Rabbit had said, she had only been prepared to judge her opponent from a position of superiority, she hadn’t considered the possibility of defeat. It was her arrogance that had destroyed her.

    Moon Princess wasn’t unfamiliar with defeat. She had lost to Shining Girls, to Dead Ash, and had even exchanged victories and defeats with Inverted City.

    But she had never felt this discouraged before.

    Because against opponents of her caliber, she had always been mentally prepared for defeat.

    But she hadn’t been prepared to be dethroned by a newcomer like Moon Rabbit…

    “Acknowledge your incompetence and go home and…reflect~~~” As Lian Xing finished her smug victory speech, she instinctively raised her stocking-clad leg, about to stomp on Moon Princess’s head and humiliate her further, then suddenly stopped.

    Ahem, there are trillions of viewers watching. Acting out the settlement animation would be unseemly, like taking a shit in the middle of the street.

    So, Lian Xing suppressed her impulse and casually lowered her foot.

    A few seconds later, the system finished calculating the results.

    Two beams of light flashed, teleporting them back to the stage.

    Normally, the commentator would conduct a brief interview, then the next round would begin. But the moment Lian Xing’s vision cleared, she saw a red-haired woman with a voluptuous figure and a fierce expression, like an evil stepmother, staring at her from the center of the stage. She wore a red cheongsam with a slit that reached her armpit, her hair styled in a domineering high bun, giving her a noble yet vulgar appearance.

    Did she just wear a curtain and call it an outfit…?

    Looking at Chiyu’s attire, Lian Xing suddenly regretted her restraint…

    She should have just stomped on Moon Princess. Someone else had already done it.

    It was her who started it…

    At this moment, although the atmosphere was tense and serious, Lian Xing’s gaze, fixed on Chiyu, was playful…

    After Moon Princess, who could barely stand, was helped off stage by her teammates, Chiyu narrowed her eyes and said, “I’m Chiyu, the captain of Inverted City, your next opponent.”

    “Moon Rabbit, in the next match, I’ll deploy all my pet beasts in the other three rounds. Except for the 4v4, don’t even think about scoring a single point…”

    “…”
    “…”

    At this moment, as Chiyu’s words echoed, everyone’s expressions turned strange.

    This was…

    A…declaration of surrender…!!!

    Unlike Moon Princess, who had gone all in, Chiyu knew that she couldn’t defeat Moon Rabbit in the 4v4 Hell Survival, so she had surrendered in advance.

    However, hearing this, the other “Measure Your Code” team members and the Baiyue Province viewers, who had been closely following their progress, their expressions changed drastically.

    Chiyu, the captain of Inverted City, giving away the 3 points from the 4v4 to Moon Rabbit…it seemed like a sign of weakness…

    But in reality, for the “Measure Your Code” team’s current situation, this was a threat…!!!

    Only the top five teams in each season could represent the Beast Tamer Alliance in the Interdimensional Grand Finals, a coveted opportunity for all Beast Tamers in tens of thousands of regions. It meant recognition, fame, and the full support and resources of the Alliance’s higher-ups!!!

    The “Measure Your Code” team was just one step away from the top five, but they were being suppressed by three immovable mountains.

    Inverted City, Shining Girls, and Dead Ash…

    Even if Moon Rabbit could monopolize the 3 points from the 4v4 round, they had no chance of surpassing them in the remaining matches.

    So, Chiyu was essentially forcing Moon Rabbit to deploy her other pet beasts!!

    “…”
    “…”

    Under everyone’s gaze, all eyes were on the golden-haired girl, waiting for her response.

    The entire venue, including the “Measure Your Code” team members, was silent.

    However, the girl’s starry eyes twinkled, and she smiled, her expression innocent…

    “Captain Chiyu, even if you’re interested in me and want to give me points, you don’t have to be so obvious. It’s a bit embarrassing with so many people watching~~”

    “…”
    “…”
    “Heh—” Facing Moon Rabbit’s masterful display of feigned ignorance, Chiyu was speechless…

    She rolled her eyes and, without another word, turned and left, logging out.

    With Chiyu’s departure, the atmosphere became even more awkward…

    Both the “Measure Your Code” team and the Monday team remained silent.

    “Well, although Little Moon Rabbit said some interesting things, she’s still young. Let’s just pretend nothing happened~~~” Xiao Jie, the commentator, tried to smooth things over…

    However, her words, although meant to be conciliatory, were incredibly stupid, attracting even more attention to Lian Xing, the chat now filled with insults directed at her.

    The topic had shifted from Moon Rabbit’s insult to Moon Princess to a societal debate, about whether newborns could be held accountable for their words.

    And Lian Xing’s expression returned to its usual indifference. She glanced at Moon Princess, whose face was ashen, and, seeing her avoid her gaze, returned to the “Measure Your Code” team, the atmosphere tense.

    At this moment, not only Captain Zi Ye, but also the reserve members, their expressions were strange…

    Where had the Great Lord Biluo found this monster who could actually defeat Moon Princess?

    If Captain Zi Ye had still harbored any illusions about the Great Lord Biluo valuing their team, they were now gone…

    “Moon Rabbit, what you said before…it’ll cause trouble…” Black Magpie said, her voice filled with concern, looking at Lian Xing.

    For beings in the pet beast world, Emperors were supreme, like gods, with countless fanatic cults and subordinate forces. Her words just now hadn’t just insulted the Emperor itself, but also all those with Emperor’s bloodline. This wouldn’t just go away…

    However, Lian Xing simply smiled and replied, “It’s fine, the Great Lord Biluo will protect me~~~”

    “…”
    “…”

    In Bimen Pass, seeing what Lian Xing had said, the Great Lord Biluo’s eye twitched. It glanced at its control center, its phone blowing up with messages, and deactivated its signal receiver.

    This was truly unbelievable…

    Who understands, besties? It’s too much…




    The 8th-ranked “I’ll Measure Your Code” team versus the 4th-ranked Monday team.

    This unequal match ended with a score of 3:7. In the final 5v5 Siege Battle, Black Magpie and Zi Ye had been completely dominated by the Monday team’s vice-captain, practically unable to fight back.

    However, everyone who had watched the livestream knew that the final score was meaningless…

    Or rather, from the moment Moon Princess was defeated, the Beast Tamer Alliance had started to lose control…

    In her fourth month since debuting, Moon Rabbit had defeated Moon Princess and the Golden Flower Flying Moon!!!

    Emperor’s blood…nothing special…

    This news spread quickly.

    Not only were Moon Princess’s fans in the subordinate regions shocked, but even the Alliance’s higher-ups had reportedly taken notice, although the matter was quickly dropped due to the intervention of the old hag Great Lord Biluo.

    Having defeated the noble Emperor’s bloodline, Lian Xing continued her usual routine of eating, sleeping, and training. But Moon Princess had even skipped Monday’s 11th match, rumored to be sulking in her room, refusing to eat or drink for an entire week.

    In Baiyue Province, at White Maple Academy…

    Xiao Kui was arguing with Moon Princess’s fans in the Beast Tamer Alliance’s online forum.

    “Look at these idiots…!!!”

    “These delusional shippers…they’re actually saying that Chiyu and Moon Princess are a couple! They’re trying to defend Moon Princess! How…noble… Noble my ass! They’re just butt-hurt. That slutty, big-breasted Chiyu…she’s obviously the Emperor’s illegitimate child. A normal person with any sense of shame wouldn’t wear a curtain in public!!!”

    “What do you know? Is selling oneself in private the same as streaking in public?” Xiao Kui typed furiously while simultaneously arguing with the haters in her livestream chat.

    Seeing this, Aurora, the captain, standing behind her, smacked her on the head.

    Xiao Kui immediately shut up, not daring to continue her rant…

    Actually, Aurora was also feeling a bit helpless…

    Compared to Lian Xing’s debut in the Baiyue Province Academy League six months ago, the situation in the 2nd-level Beast Tamer Alliance was different…

    Even the most talented players could only compete for five years before their performance declined. If they overcame this decline and reached Royal-Tier, they would become legendary figures like Baoyu Shuitianliang.

    However, most of the Ten Greats would fade into obscurity after graduation.

    So, even if they were incredibly strong, they couldn’t dominate the league forever, suppressing the other academies. Even Phantom Sea Academy had its down periods and occasional losses.

    But the situation in the Beast Tamer Alliance was completely different…!!!

    The age limit for the Alliance Competition was 30, and the viewership had increased from barely over a hundred million to trillions per match.

    Moon Princess and Chiyu had been competing in the league for years, their fan base and status firmly established.

    Even if the newcomer, Lian Xing, dethroned Moon Princess, she could never replace her noble status.

    And most importantly, unlike the Academy League’s annual, single-elimination tournament, the Beast Tamer Alliance Competition had matches every day. Losing a single match wasn’t a big deal.

    And with Lian Xing’s arrogant taunts after the match, she wasn’t exactly winning the public’s favor.

    In this chaotic situation, the people in Baiyue Province could do nothing. It was all up to Lian Xing…



    Meanwhile, in Lian Xing’s private training room at the Beast Tamer Alliance…

    Lian Xing, constantly being harassed by the Great Lord Biluo, completely ignored the outside world’s opinion. In fact, she was still regretting not having stomped on Moon Princess’s head.

    It was like seeing a lewd picture online, accidentally scrolling past it, then feeling frustrated all day.

    The atmosphere had been perfect. Even if she had actually done it, Moon Princess wouldn’t have complained, right?

    But, despite her frustrations. Lian Xing had some good news…

    The Golden Leaf, which had been doing nothing but eating and sleeping, practically draining the Great Lord Biluo’s coffers, had finally reached the threshold of Sheathing, fulfilling the requirements for the third transcendent evolution path.

    After the Topaz Double Wheel and the Amber Palace, a new path, even rarer than the Amber Palace, had finally appeared.

    This was a point of no return, an even more degenerate path…
