Chapter 142: Lian Xing’s New Wife
The All-Pet Beast Tournament, a super-league open only to 2nd to 4th-level regions. Unlike the child’s play of smaller leagues, actual deaths occurred here. The tournament was organized by the Pet Beast World Judgement Organization and overseen by the Seven Heavens.
-
Forbidden to deploy non-contracted pet beasts.
-
Participants must be under 30 years old.
-
Forbidden to use Monarch or Emperor-Tier relics to cheat.
-
Previous tournament champions couldn’t participate in disguise.
“…”
“…”
“Do you all understand!?”
“Any cheating will result in a permanent ban!!” Inside the Beast Tamer Alliance’s airship, the Hidden Moon Marquis looked around sternly.
However, despite its harsh tone, many participants were still staring at the alluring golden-haired girl in the corner. Even Dead Ash was stunned.
What was going on?
In less than half a month, Moon Rabbit had developed so much… Had she undergone some kind of surgery…?
At this moment, not only were the buttons on the girl’s shirt straining, but even her white stockings were tightly hugging her shapely legs. Her smooth, white skin, not too thin, not too thick, was incredibly enticing…
Actually, after a few days of rest and recovery, Lian Xing’s body had returned to a more normal state. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to appear in public.
But…despite her initial embarrassment. Lian Xing had discovered a new secret about her body. It was like a malleable pillow. Although its overall structure couldn’t be changed drastically, by controlling her Pet Essence flow, she could alter her appearance. Although she couldn’t transform into a crawling animal, she could create hybrid features like tails and animal ears.
And most importantly, given enough time, she could even regenerate lost limbs…
It was a pity about Calamity Sun…
Thinking of this, Lian Xing sighed inwardly.
The All-Pet Beast Tournament strictly forbade outside assistance, so she couldn’t use Calamity Sun. And after the battle against Dead Ash, Calamity Sun had disappeared, probably off to cause trouble somewhere else.
“Focus! Do you want to die on the battlefield!?”
“Now, I’ll tell you about the opponents you should avoid…!”
“If a large-scale battle breaks out, immediately run if you encounter Beast Tamers from the City of Awe, the Dominating Cauldron Palace, Worry-Free Pond, or Youyou Leize. Their overall strength is far greater than ours.”
“Especially the Dominating Cauldron Palace, whose members enjoy killing Beast Tamers. Be very careful. In comparison, Beast Tamers from other regions are much more civilized~~~”
“…”
“…”
“Hidden Moon Marquis, I heard that one of the Monarchs in the Dominating Cauldron Palace is a mature descendant of an Ancient Species. So, if I encounter them, can I kill them…?” Dead Ash suddenly asked.
Sensing Dead Ash’s bloodlust, the others swallowed hard, their breathing becoming shallow.
And the Hidden Moon Marquis, after a moment of silence, nodded casually, “As you wish. Under the Seven Heavens’ supervision, no one can interfere with the tournament’s outcome.”
“But if you encounter the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s Jade Lady, don’t force a fight. According to rumors, she’s beyond the comprehension of ordinary Royal-Tier Beast Tamers.”
“And Lian Xing…”
“Be careful of Snow Sun from the Wind Sand Region, the Third Princess of Youyou Leize, and the most terrifying…Tears Maiden of Worry-Free Pond. As the only dual-Legend holder of this generation, and of similar age, they won’t ignore you.”
“No matter what, don’t die. Not just for yourself, but for the future of the Beast Tamer Alliance,” the Hidden Moon Marquis said, her tone serious, her words a…veiled warning…
If Lian Xing, along with the Great Lord Biluo within her, died in the All-Pet Beast Tournament…it would be a disaster…
“Uh…” Lian Xing, hearing this, paused, then nodded, her expression confused.
It sounded…scary…
But surely Thunder Fly and Tears Maiden wouldn’t kill her, right~~~?
After that, time ticked by.
The 35 participants from the Beast Tamer Alliance spent several days on the airship, traveling through multiple long-distance portals, finally approaching the venue for this year’s All-Pet Beast Tournament.
The Dominating Cauldron Palace, the location of the previous tournament!!!
“…”
“…”
“Whoosh——!!!!!”
Unlike the futuristic architecture of the Beast Tamer Alliance, the moment the airship entered this region, they saw a dreamlike landscape of giant mountains and clouds, a strong cultivation vibe.
An endless sea of green clouds covered the sky for trillions of kilometers.
And above the clouds, a giant, jade-green cauldron, larger than their field of vision, its interior emanating a terrifyingly powerful Pet Essence, even ordinary Emperors couldn’t touch it.
This magnificent sight left them speechless, as if they had suddenly entered a cultivation world…
Noticing the golden-haired girl’s stunned expression, Zi Meng, the purple-haired, blind girl, the captain of Shining Girls, explained kindly, “This is a relic of a Sovereign-Tier Emperor…”
“Sovereign-Tier Emperor, the second stage of Emperor-Tier. Some of the strongest among them are even given titles.”
“Currently, there are only six known powers with Sovereign-Tier Emperors: the Sovereign’s territory, which guards the Sanctuary Gate; the Seven Heavens, which maintains order in the Pet Beast World; and the four regions of Youyou Leize, Worry-Free Pond, the Dominating Cauldron Palace, and the City of Awe~~~”
“And whenever a new Sovereign-Tier Emperor is born in a region, the previous one will attempt to enter the Sanctuary Gate, to glimpse the scenery of the new world~~~”
“By the way, just a year ago, there were seven Sovereign-Tier Emperors. But the leader of the Cycle of Calamity was supposedly killed by an Ancient Species that emerged from the gate. However, the Sovereign hasn’t detected any signs of the gate opening. It’s puzzling… Where did that Ancient Species come from…?”
“…”
“…”
“Oh…” Lian Xing replied casually after a long silence.
Hearing her indifferent response, Zi Meng’s gentle smile faltered.
As the top player of Pet Beast Evolution Battle in her previous life, Lian Xing naturally knew about the terrifying power of a Sovereign-Tier Emperor. Her final lineup had mostly consisted of pet beasts at that level.
But seeing it in reality was different…
It felt like it could crush the entire Pet Beast World with just its aura…
Meanwhile, inside Lian Xing’s pet beast space, the Cloud Dream Calamity, seeing the giant jade cauldron, felt a splitting headache, its life crystal trembling. And for some reason, it felt a strong urge to consume this Emperor-Tier relic…
Soon, the Beast Tamer Alliance’s airship landed on a cloud-covered mountaintop. Through the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s region-wide broadcasting system, the figures of the 30+ participants were clearly visible.
In the livestream, a girl with green twintails commentated excitedly, “They’re here, they’re here! After the airships from Youyou Leize and the City of Awe, the Beast Tamer Alliance’s airship has also arrived in our Dominating Cauldron Palace!”
“This time, the Beast Tamer Alliance and Youyou Leize are the only two powers with two T0 contenders. They’re a significant threat to the Dominating Cauldron Palace, although we’ve always considered the Beast Tamer Alliance a 3rd-level power…~~~”
As the condescending words of the Dominating Cauldron Palace commentator echoed, the viewers in the Beast Tamer Alliance’s subordinate regions were angry…
However, more than anger, they felt shock and awe, including the people in Baiyue Province. Even the golden fox, the guardian, was stunned.
The Dominating Cauldron Palace’s territory was larger than all the Beast Tamer Alliance’s regions combined.
They couldn’t even see a millionth of it.
According to the data, the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s territory was 63 times larger than the entire Beast Tamer Alliance!!!
Compared to this behemoth, the Beast Tamer Alliance was like a newborn baby, its eyes not even open yet…
This was why, when Thunder Fly’s mother, the Heaven’s Cry Thunderclap Hairpin, had crossed seven thousand Alliance regions, no Monarch-Tier pet beast had dared to intercept it.
Even as 2nd-level regions, they weren’t on the same level!!!
“Oh, they’re here. That silver-haired girl with pale eyes…that must be Dead Ash, the wielder of the Ancient Juvenile Species, right? She looks spaced out… She must have been played with too much by that Ancient Juvenile Species~~~” As the twin-tailed commentator’s insensitive words echoed, the livestream chat, with its astronomical number of viewers, exploded, filled with insults.
At the same time, the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s higher-ups received countless complaints.
Because not only Dead Ash of the Beast Tamer Alliance, but also the members from the City of Awe and Youyou Leize had been mocked by this commentator.
This was insulting everyone…
As a mere commentator, how dare she insult the participants!?
However, in the next second…
As a golden-haired girl with buns and white stockings emerged from the airship, the green-haired, twin-tailed girl’s expression froze. She stared at the girl, her mouth agape, speechless.
“This…this is…”
“…”
“…”
Suddenly, before the commentator could even finish her sentence, her microphone was snatched away, and she was kicked out of the broadcasting room.
The high-ranking Beast Tamer from the Dominating Cauldron Palace, who had taken the microphone, glared at the green-haired girl, then apologized to the livestream viewers, “Sorry, sorry, this was a misunderstanding, a technical difficulty…a technical difficulty~~~”
And the green-haired girl, after being rightfully removed from the broadcasting room, returned to the Dominating Cauldron Palace team, her gaze still fixed on the Beast Tamer Alliance’s side, her expression infatuated.
Under everyone’s gaze, the golden-haired girl in translucent, knee-high stockings finally appeared. She wore a white, lop-eared rabbit hat, her lewd, starry eyes casually scanning the surroundings.
At this moment, all eyes in the Pet Beast World were on her.
Meanwhile, the participants from Youyou Leize, the City of Awe, the Dominating Cauldron Palace, and other 2nd to 4th-level regions also focused their attention on the golden-haired girl.
This was…
The master of Calamity Sun and Star Sand!!!
The only dual-Legend holder who had defeated an Ancient Juvenile Species, Moon Rabbit · Lian Xing!!!
“…”
“…”
“Drip, drip, drip, drizzle, drizzle, downpour——!!!”
Suddenly, without warning, as the sound of rain echoed, almost all the participants instinctively looked up at the sky. And the Dominating Cauldron Palace participants’ expressions turned to shock and confusion.
What the…?
How could it be raining within the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s territory!?
Who…who had done this…?
“Boom!!!!”
In the next second, a deafening roar echoed.
The clouds parted.
A dark blue submarine, emerging from a portal, entered the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s territory. And within a radius of several thousand kilometers around the submarine, a torrential downpour began, pelting the participants’ Pet Essence barriers.
The final 2nd-level region, Worry-Free Pond, had arrived…
Soon, under everyone’s shocked gazes—
As the submarine descended, a blue-haired girl with a fishtail emerged, swimming through the wall.
At that moment, silence fell.
On either side of the fishtailed girl’s indifferent face, beneath her eyes, were two teardrop-shaped birthmarks, and even her pupils resembled falling teardrops. As if in her presence, all other colors faded, only the endless downpour above her remained.
Holy and ethereal, pure and untainted.
Worry-Free Pond, Tears Maiden…
Just then, countless voices echoed throughout the Dominating Cauldron Palace.
“Welcome, Your Majesty, Tears Maiden of the Seven Heavens!!!”
“Welcome, Your Majesty, Tears Maiden of the Seven Heavens!!!”
“Welcome, Your Majesty, Tears Maiden of the Seven Heavens!!!”
The seven lords of the Seven Heavens held equal status and had the authority to enforce the law in any region. So, theoretically, Tears Maiden was on the same level as the Emperors of the top 2nd-level regions.
Her participating in the All-Pet Beast Tournament as a lord of the Seven Heavens…it was humbling herself.
There was no need for her to do this.
Before a Monarch, one had to bow.
At this moment, as the welcoming voices echoed throughout the Dominating Cauldron Palace…
All the participants’ expressions turned to shock and awe.
Tears Maiden, with the full support of the Seven Heavens…could she possibly be defeated…?
Not only the participants, but also the livestream viewers were speechless, filled with a sense of despair…even before the tournament began, ready to abandon their own chosen contenders.
Even the Monarch-Tier Beast Tamer in the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s livestream was shocked by this overwhelming presence, taking a while to regain her composure and speak into the microphone.
“Now that the participant from Worry-Free Pond has arrived, please gather at the central mountain peak.”
“Before the first round of qualifiers begins, I’d like to clarify something. It seems there have been many misunderstandings about our Dominating Cauldron Palace in recent centuries. People think we indiscriminately kill innocent beings. That’s not true. It’s just that our Beast Tamers are too eager to fight. Once their bloodlust is awakened, they can’t control themselves.”
“So, we only have two rounds of qualifiers this time, but they’re very difficult. We might even eliminate 90% of the participants. This is to ensure the safety of the weaker contenders. The details have been approved by the Seven Heavens~~~~”
As the commentator finished speaking…
Under everyone’s gaze, the participants began heading towards the cloud-covered mountain peak in the distance.
Half an hour later, almost ten thousand participants had gathered on the giant platform atop the mountain. The Beast Tamer Alliance participants, led by Dead Ash and Lian Xing, also arrived.
The other participants respectfully made way for them.
No one dared to stand near a team with a T0-level contender.
Especially Tears Maiden of Worry-Free Pond. Not only the other participants, but even her teammates kept their distance, leaving her alone in a large, empty space, her cold, teardrop-shaped eyes as if she considered everyone else air…
In the Youyou Leize section, the lightning-wreathed, purple elemental girl, Thunder Fly, was also incredibly eye-catching. And standing beside her was a gentle, purple-haired woman in a purple court dress, her makeup alluring yet innocent, the Second Princess of Youyou Leize.
In the City of Awe’s section, several members were carrying a palanquin…a bizarre sight.
And in the Dominating Cauldron Palace’s section, the green-haired, twin-tailed girl who had previously impersonated a commentator was staring at the golden-haired girl with buns, her expression infatuated…
Besides these four top powers, there was another woman who stood out. She had long, white hair, like vanilla ice cream, her eyes also white, like snowflakes, her breathtakingly beautiful face unforgettable.
She was Snow Sun from the Wind Sand Region, a 2nd-level region, the wielder of Black Sun Flame, one of the 72 Legends, a true Legend Beast Tamer.
The Wind Sand Region, the weakest of the 2nd-level regions, even weaker than the Beast Tamer Alliance.
Yet, a T0-level contender had emerged from this declining region.
Under everyone’s gaze, Lian Xing, the golden-haired girl with buns and starry eyes, also arrived at the platform.
And Dead Ash deliberately kept her distance, not standing near her.
Seeing this, the Dominating Cauldron Palace commentator began explaining the rules.
“Now that everyone is here, let me announce the rules for the first round of qualifiers.”
“The difficulty of the first round is even higher than the main tournament, to prevent the participants’ lineups and strengths from being leaked… Therefore, the process won’t be broadcast, only the rankings and order will be revealed. Please form groups of three~~~”
“Then, each of you will deploy one pet beast and challenge a Monarch-Tier pet beast together~~~”
“Of course, you can also team up with members from other regions~~~”
“…”
“…”
“Oh, I forgot to mention, you don’t have to defeat the Monarch-Tier pet beast. As long as two of your pet beasts can pass through the gate it’s guarding within ten minutes, you’ll pass. And the Monarch won’t harm you~~~”
Amidst the silence, as the commentator finished speaking, the stunned participants finally understood.
This beast…why couldn’t it just say everything at once!!!
They had thought they would have to defeat a Monarch-Tier pet beast…
Otherwise, wouldn’t they all be eliminated in the first round?
Unnoticed by anyone, Tears Maiden’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“What a bitch…” Lian Xing muttered under her breath, hidden among the crowd.
Even for them, the elites of the 2nd-level regions, who could defeat a Monarch-Tier pet beast at Royal-Tier!?
And after hearing the rules, Zi Meng, as if she had foreseen this, immediately walked over to Lian Xing, her eyes teary, and pleaded, “I’m blind, please help me, Master Moon Rabbit!!”
“Can you…pass…?” Lian Xing asked directly.
“Of course, 100%~~~”
“Good~~”
Although Zi Meng’s combat power wasn’t that impressive, with her guarantee , Lian Xing had a good reason to accept her.
On the contrary, if Zi Meng hadn’t asked her, Lian Xing would have been worried about their team failing…
Meanwhile, seeing Zi Meng and Lian Xing teaming up, Dead Ash simply sneered and walked away.
It seemed she didn’t want to be on the same team as Lian Xing.
Unless Lian Xing apologized for what had happened in the Jade Face Spring…
However, just as Lian Xing was about to ask Zi Meng about their third teammate, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed hers, and Lian Xing, completely unprepared, turned around in surprise. The green-haired, twin-tailed girl who had impersonated the commentator was looking at her with teary eyes.
“Wife, I’ve finally found you!!!”
