Chapter 318

In front of them.

Boom —

A fierce battle broke out on the barren land. Following Su Ping's order, the Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python unleashed all their skills at the Moonfrost Dragon.

Su Ping told Su Lingyue to send a message to the Moonfrost Dragon, telling it to fight with all its might.

That way, she would be able to see the Moonfrost Dragon's real strength!

Roar!!

With Su Lingyue's permission, the Moonfrost Dragon let out a deafening roar, as if it had been released from a cage!

This dragon roar was extremely loud and clear. It was filled with penetrating power, and it also contained violence and savagery.

The Moonfrost Dragon was a female dragon, and one of the more docile of the dragons. That being said, the Moonfrost Dragon had gone through too much in such a short period of time … especially killing!

This planet that had been silent in the universe for billions of years seemed to be singing a clear song to the entire universe.

The dragon's roar swept across. As the Moonfrost Dragon's master, Su Lingyue was immune to the spiritual erosion and deterrence in the dragon's roar. Still, her hair was blown back by the murderous intent.

Su Ping was prepared. He had prepared a spiritual defense, so he was not deterred.

Besides, he was almost immune to the dragon's roar.

After the roar, the golden scales on the Moonfrost Dragon began to wriggle. Violent energy surged out from the Moonfrost Dragon and condensed on the ground around it. At the same time, strange purple flames appeared out of thin air. Ice and fire, two sides of each other!

Apart from that, the golden divine energy over the Moonfrost Dragon seemed to have come back to life and was wandering around.

Bang!

The ground collapsed. Bolts of lightning were compressing in the air, forming a horrifying force field.

Su Lingyue could not believe what she was seeing. It was as if doomsday had come.

Was that … her Moonfrost Dragon?

As far as she could remember, the Moonfrost Dragon had been gentle and kind to her, like a good baby.

But at the moment, amidst the swirling dust and lightning, the Moonfrost Dragon was like the king of dragons, with a horrifying aura that was hard to look at …

…

Several hours later, the battle came to an end.

Su Ping took the pale Su Lingyue back to the store.

He didn't let her open her eyes until they were back in the store.

Su Lingyue had taken the Moonfrost Dragon back to her pet space. The temporary contract between Su Ping and her was automatically terminated the moment they returned to the store.

After all, the Moonfrost Dragon was a one-time consumable.

Without the shackles of the contract, Su Ping felt that the relationship between them had become much more distant. Of course, it wasn't true that they were estranged. It was just that the intimacy between them, which was like a close family, had faded away.

Even so, there were still some traces left.

Su Ping's opinion of his sister had changed a bit … He was truly seeing her as a girl.

"Do you know now?" Su Ping asked, as if nothing had happened.

Su Lingyue came back to her senses. She finally saw the surroundings. They were back in the store.

She was still in a daze, but her mind was not on that. The battle in that desolate place was still echoing in her mind. It was so shocking that she was completely dumbfounded.

So, this was the Moonfrost Dragon's real strength?

Her heart was pounding. At this moment, she finally understood why Su Ping was so confident that he could guarantee that she would win the championship.

With such a horrifying dragon, even a pig could win the championship, not to mention her!

Wait a minute.

Something didn't seem right.

Su Lingyue frowned. She shook her head. She didn't want to think about these small details. "Was what just happened real?" She asked Su Ping.

Su Ping turned around so that he wouldn't look at her. She knew him too well. He felt a bit guilty.

"It's not real. That place was fake but the battle you saw was real. That was the Moonfrost Dragon's real strength."

"Really?"

Su Lingyue felt her blood was boiling after hearing Su Ping's affirmation. Still, she felt it was unreal.

At the same time, she realized something. The strange feeling she had toward Su Ping was gone. It was as if something was missing.

Her face suddenly turned slightly red. What nonsense was she thinking?

She must have been mistaken!

That illusory scene must have distorted that guy's appearance and made her feel like she was appreciating him!

Yes! That was it!

She nodded inwardly. She was even more certain of her speculation — that was the only explanation!

"Of course it's real."

Su Ping darted her a sideways glance. "You saw what it did just now. Go to the test space and let it have a try. But remember to save some strength for tomorrow's match."

"Oh, right."

At the mention of the test space, Su Lingyue patted her head. She ran away without looking back.

Su Ping raised his eyebrows. He felt sorry that she ran away without even saying goodbye. She was still more adorable than before.

"Anyways.

I didn't know humans could sign contracts. "

"If that's the case, the pets I accept in the store … can also include humans, right?"

"Doesn't that mean … I can train other battle pet warriors?!"

Su Ping's eyes glowed with excitement as he thought of this.

But soon, he thought of a serious problem.

He could bring humans to the cultivation space for training, just like the pets. However, humans were different from pets.

Humans were highly intelligent creatures. They were cunning, treacherous, smart, and uncontrollable.

If he were to bring humans into the cultivation space, the secret of his store would be exposed. He would be in big trouble and even the entire Federation would be alerted.

He could hide in the store's turtle shell. However, if the Federation was alerted, he would become the enemy of all mankind. He could not hide in the store for the rest of his life.

That would be asking for trouble.

"In the eyes of the system, humans are like pets, a race that can be trained. But training humans won't be as easy as training pets."

Su Ping shook his head. He gave up on the idea of training humans.

Taking Su Lingyue to the cultivation space was already a risky move.

It was mainly because the latter was his younger sister, and in his opinion, this younger sister was a little naive and easy to fool.

Still, it would be better not to do such a thing in the future. Sooner or later, the secret would be exposed.

…

Su Lingyue finished her test.

Su Ping kicked her out of the store and told her to go home and have a rest.

Nothing of practical value had been gained. However, Su Lingyue felt she had learned a lot after witnessing the Moonfrost Dragon's strength. She was as excited as if she had just gotten the dragon.

Su Ping wanted to tell her to go to bed early since she still had the match the next day. But seeing how excited she was, Su Ping believed that she would not be able to sleep that night.

Luckily, for a fifth-rank battle pet warrior, a night of insomnia was not a big deal.

After Su Lingyue left, Su Ping went to the test room and practiced the Fist of Exorcist for a while. Then, he went to the nursing pen to cultivate.

When physical strength was severely depleted, the speed at which he could absorb astral powers could be increased by one percent.

Sitting in another nursing pen, Joanna was also cultivating.

The man and the woman spent the night in silence.

The next day.

To Su Ping's surprise, there were many customers waiting in line.

Su Ping's store had not been doing well during the past few days because of the selection. He didn't expect that there would be so many customers and so many of them.

"What's going on?" Su Ping asked a customer in front of him.

The man was a student of the Phoenix Peak Academy and a regular customer of Su Ping's. "What, what is it?" he asked in confusion.

"Huh?"

"Well, I, I mean, nothing happened."

"Then what are you doing here?"

"… Well, I'm rich and I have nothing to do, so I came."

"…"

Su Ping could not refute this reason.

He asked a few more people and learned that none of them had managed to get tickets to the uptown area. It just so happened that the academies and some companies related to pets were on vacation.

Therefore, if they didn't go to the live matches, they would have plenty of free time. Therefore, they decided to go to Su Ping's store while there were fewer customers.

They could go back and watch the live matches after they finished their business in Su Ping's store.

Even if they couldn't make it, they could use their phones or go to a random store to watch the matches.

There were TVs or screens in the restaurants and supermarkets along the way. All of them were broadcasting the matches. It was even livelier than watching the matches alone at home.

All of a sudden, Su Ping felt it was necessary to have a TV in his store.

That way, they wouldn't have to rush back and they could watch the matches while waiting in line.

A TV wouldn't cost much. On the contrary, he could make more customers stay and he could make money a hundred times over.

With that in mind, he left the store to Joanna and told her to take care of the customers. He left the store and went back home.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw that his mother was already making breakfast in the kitchen. Su Lingyue seemed to have stayed up all night. She was still wearing her clothes. She was lying on the table, stroking the Phantom Flame Beast's fur. She seemed to be deep in thought and would laugh every now and then.

Su Ping felt a chill run down his spine.

If any of the boys in her class were to see this, they would never believe that their goddess could laugh in such a creepy way.
