Chapter 394 Six Pets at the Peak of the Ninth Rank
Confused and curious, Venerable the Blade went after Su Ping.
Since Venerable the Blade had left to follow Su Ping, the other elders gave each other encouraging looks and they mustered up the courage to go after them.
They thought they could probably meet the secret supporter behind Su Ping in that room.
Xie Gange looked worried. He wondered if Su Ping was trying to set him up.
Otherwise, why would Su Ping insist on going to that room? What was the difference between that room and the storefront?
When the fight broke out, he could easily smash the building into pieces, no matter where he was!
Besides, Xie Gange had noticed that he was unable to see what was inside that room with his perceptual power. On the off chance that other powerful warriors were hiding inside, it would be just like catching a turtle in a jar, with him being the turtle! That was very risky!
Xie Gange hesitated. Eventually, he made up his mind.
“You, go to the place I told you about, and you, stay by the door. If anything goes wrong in there, do not even try to come and save me. I will give you a signal, and you must evacuate at once and send a message back to the Organization,” Xie Gange said to the two battle pet warriors standing behind him. The two titled battle pet warriors turned pale. “Sir…”
“Don’t! This is an order,” Xie Gange said solemnly.
The two looked at each other, filing their teeth. They stepped out of the store. One of them stayed close to the entrance and the other one flew away in case other powerful warriors would come out and ambush the one staying by the door.
As they settled into position, Xie Gange took a deep breath and walked into that room.
“Where are your two minions?”
Su Ping raised his eyebrows when he noticed the two did not enter along with Xie Gange. Soon, Su Ping realized something. He flashed a sarcastic grin.
Xie Gange snorted. He didn’t answer Su Ping’s question. “Is this the room? Don’t blame me if I accidentally tear your store apart later!”
Su Ping didn’t mind Xie Gange not replying to his question. He didn’t have to think hard to figure out where the two were.
The other elders and Venerable the Blade had figured it out as well but they said nothing. They just looked around the room and failed to find anything out of the ordinary.
The room wasn’t large enough to allow a titled battle pet warrior to fight.
“You don’t have the strength to tear apart my store just yet.”
Su Ping smiled as if laughing at Xie Gange. “I don’t want to bully you. So, what kind of venue do you want?” Xie Gange raised his eyebrows. It had been years since anyone had said those words to him.
Besides, he did not understand… Why did Su Ping say those words?
Wasn’t he already at the venue, the room itself?
“Anything,” Xie Gange said coldly. He was relieved that no other titled battle pet warriors of his rank were in the room. He just wanted to get it over with so he was no longer in the mood to waste time.
“Really? Then I will choose the venue that I like.”
Su Ping said to Tang Ruyan, “Set up a place suitable for the undead family.”
Tang Ruyan had become familiar with the room. She felt sorry that Xie Gange didn’t make a choice. Choosing a place suitable for himself would increase his chances of winning.
But she had to obey Su Ping’s orders. She went to turn the switch.
Soon, the room began to change. Gradually, the sky and the ground began to extend into infinity, forming a boundless land. Then came the dark clouds. The dark brown soil on the ground looked like the residue of caked blood.
Bones and remains were scattered on the ground. Soon, the room turned into an ancient arena.
Bones covered up the ground. There seemed to be some wisps of dark mist and whispers that were barely audible. This was an entirely new world.
The elders and Xie Gange could not believe this change.
Was this a special effect?
It’s too realistic. No special effect could produce this!
Besides, they could indeed look into the horizon as if it were an independent world. They couldn’t even find the end of the space.
Xie Gange looked at the young man in confusion. He finally understood why Su Ping asked what kind of venue he liked.
He could choose one!
This venue where death abounded was clearly more than suitable for that skeleton!
Xie Gange quickly calmed himself down from his surprise. A glint of coldness rose in his eyes. This environment was not the most suitable for him, but given his rank, environments didn’t matter much to him.
But the strangeness of the room did disturb his mind a bit. He had never seen anything like it. He wondered if this was some advanced technology; it didn’t look like something developed on the Blue Planet. On the other hand, if this was unrelated to technology, then the alternative had to be even more horrifying!
“Come on now,” Su Ping said coldly.
Xie Gange came back to his senses. He darted a meaningful gaze at Su Ping and then flew into the arena where bones and remains abounded, starting from the space by the edge of the room.
He felt he was in another world.
The arena was large enough to house several battle pets of the ninth rank.
Remembering that two people were still waiting outside, Xie Gange immediately resorted to action. He mobilized astral powers and six swirls appeared behind him.
The six swirls were of various sizes but they were equally horrifying.
Roar!
That was a dragon’s bellow.
There was a gobbling sound generated by some pet of the demon family; it was the noise of a sort of mucus spilling around.
There was an extreme heat that had increased the temperature in the room.
The swirls grew and the battle pets stepped out one by one. There was a dragon, a battle pet of the demon family, a pet of the element family, and a humanoid pet that was eight meters tall, with an armor-like skin and a hammer that resembled the one that Xie Gange carried.
But the hammer the pet carried was exceptionally large, with a length of over a dozen meters. The hammer was certainly able to crush anyone into a pile of goo. In total, six battle pets came out from behind Xie Gange and stood around him like towering mountains.
The elders, as well as Tang Ruyan, were startled by the battle pets.
The six of them were at the peak of the ninth rank!
The battle pets were imbued with a spirit that was able to conquer mountains and rivers!
Any one of the six pets were greatly dangerous, not to mention when the six were summoned!
Xie Gange himself was at the peak of the ninth rank!
This was the strength of Xie Gange, the King of Arms!!
The elders of the major families looked at each other in speechless astonishment. Xie Gange alone could defeat all of them present!
They were all titled battle pet warriors, but the gap between the elders and Xie Gange was vast.
Qin Shuhai’s eyes glowed. He was seized with a surge of thrill and he craved for that strength.
He was at the upper position of the titled rank and his title was well known. However, compared to one at the peak of the titled rank, he was still a child!
To progress further would mean that he would have to be like Xie Gange. Still, Qin Shuhai was well aware that there was a long journey before him.
Qin Shuhai also had many battle pets but merely two of his battle pets were at the peak of the ninth rank. That was it!
Compared to six battle pets at the peak of the ninth rank, those two meant nothing.
While everyone was exclaiming about the six battle pets at the peak of the ninth rank, Venerable the Blade cast a grave glance at the humanoid battle pet that was carrying the huge hammer.
Even though all the pets were at the peak of the ninth rank, their strength still varied.
That humanoid battle pet was named “Thunder Hammer” and was the most powerful battle pet of Xie Gange, the King of Arms!
Su Ping stared at the six battles with great interest. Well, Xie Gange indeed had a great number of battle pets and he had to be a resourceful man, given that all of his pets were at the peak of the ninth rank.
Su Ping gazed at the dragon which he found the most intriguing. That was a rare, mutated kind. It seemed that the dragon had evolved from the Silver Wing Dragon. This dragon still retained the appearance of the Silver Wing Dragon, only that this dragon’s wings had turned gray. The dragon was wearing a huge armor that was forged by a kind of metal that Su Ping could not recognize.
This was the first time for Su Ping to see a pet wearing armor…
To be more exact, a pet that was not a humanoid battle pet.
After all, humanoid battle pets—which were like enhanced versions of human beings in most cases-would use weapons in battles.
Huh, no pet is at the legendary rank.
Su Ping found it weird. Wasn’t Xie Gange a titled battle pet warrior known all across the Subcontinent District?
“I’m ready.”
Xie Gange stood on the ground. Glistening astral powers surrounded him. He was slowly building up an astral power shield as he gazed at Su Ping coldly.
Su Ping nodded. He looked at the Little Skeleton, patted its head, and told the Little Skeleton what it needed to do.
The Little Skeleton raised its head. While a bit baffled, the Little Skeleton nodded and then flew towards the arena. The Little Skeleton stood in the air and slowly drew its blade. The blade?
Venerable the Blade was staring in bewilderment. The Little Skeleton had been progressing fast with its blade skills but it was not a master yet. Venerable the Blade believed that even he wouldn’t have been able to use his saber to defeat Xie Gange within three seconds, not to mention the fact that the Little Skeleton’s blade skills were much weaker.
Xie Gange stared at the Little Skeleton. He was seventy percent sure that he could defeat the skeleton and over one hundred percent sure that he could last for three seconds!
He gave his orders.
Roar!!
The mutated Silver Wing Dragon shouted. Many metal walls rose from the ground and the metal fortress shielded Xie Gange inside. At the same time, the battle pet of the demon family and those of the element families began to unleash their defensive skills as well.
All of the skills were for defense. Xie Gange’s pets were setting up all those layers of defense as if the skills would not cost any energy. The protection was impeccable.
He agreed that he would last for three seconds, not that he had to win.
That was too easy! The family elders and Venerable the Blade had never expected that Xie Gange had given up on the offense and was going for the defense.
But, what he did was indeed in line with Su Ping’s rules.
