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…
