"What?"
Su Ping took Xu Kuang to the test room without further ado.
In the room, Su Lingyue was sitting in the middle of the room, cultivating with her legs crossed. She was sweating and her fair skin had turned red, like a lobster that had been heated in a pot. However, under her skin that had turned red because of the astral power, there was a faint green glow, which was quite obscure.
That was the sign of the Glaze Bulwark.
Su Ping didn't mind her. He went to the other side with Xu Kuang, who was still in shock. He waved his hand and a swirl appeared. A figure with black fur jumped out.
As soon as he landed, the figure let out a ferocious and powerful roar like a tiger roaring in the forest, "Woof!"
"What?"
Xu Kuang was surprised.
The Dark Dragon Hound?
Su Ping read the rental price and reported the Dark Dragon Hound to the system.
Soon, the rental price of the Dark Dragon Hound appeared in his mind.
5000/H！
Five thousand energy points per hour.
Su Ping nodded. When the Little Skeleton's combat strength had just reached 10, the rental price was 10,000 energy points per hour, which was one million astral coins.
Su Ping was satisfied that the Dark Dragon Hound could pay half of the Little Skeleton's price.
Su Ping turned to Xu Kuang and said, "Here, that's the one. You can have it. Five hundred thousand astral coins per hour."
Xu Kuang: "???"
A dog, sorry, a Dark Dragon Hound, for five hundred thousand astral coins? Furthermore, it was calculated in hours?!
Xu Kuang wondered if Su Ping had made a mistake, or if he had misheard. Or if he had been too pretentious and Su Ping had misunderstood him. Was that why Su Ping wanted to kill him?
Yes, I am rich but I am not an idiot!
Xu Kuang looked at Su Ping with suspicion. He thought of another possibility. Was Su Ping testing him? Was this a test for him?!
"Sir, is this … a Dark Dragon Hound?"
Xu Kuang asked in a low voice. He pretended to be asking but he was actually reminding Su Ping that this was a Dark Dragon Hound, just a Dark Dragon Hound!
The cost of renting it for two hours was enough to buy one!
Even though this was a pet of the demon family, it only had a middle-level bloodline. Selling it for one million would be the best!
Su Ping was stunned. He did not expect Xu Kuang to ask such a stupid question. He looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot. "Of course. Aren't you a top student at Ares College? Can't you tell?"
“！！”
Xu Kuang's mouth twitched.
I'm a top student, but you're treating me like a fool!
"Sir …" Xu Kuang took a deep breath. He felt he should tell the truth. "I don't think a Dark Dragon Hound is worth that much, right?"
"Hmm?"
Su Ping realized that the Dark Dragon Hound was too weak.
Of course, the Dark Dragon Hound wasn't worth the price.
"Lazy dog, show me what you've got."
Su Ping kicked the Dark Dragon Hound that was rolling around on the ground. Of all the pets, this was the laziest one. Whenever there was a chance, it would slack off.
The Dark Dragon Hound was startled by Su Ping's kick. The Dark Dragon Hound crawled up from the ground and looked around alertly. Only after it heard Su Ping's words did the Dark Dragon Hound come back to its senses. The Dark Dragon Hound looked around, confused. There was no enemy. What was the point of showing off?
Xu Kuang looked at Su Ping in confusion. What was the point of showing off a Dark Dragon Hound?
Su Ping didn't bother to explain. He told the Dark Dragon Hound to use some advanced skills.
The Dark Dragon Hound was even more confused. Still, it had to obey Su Ping because of the contract. The Dark Dragon Hound tilted its head and thought for a while. Then, it picked out some advanced skills that could save effort.
Earth Protection!
Wind Shield!
Dark Flame Bullet!
The two advanced defensive skills covered the Dark Dragon Hound completely. Then, the Dark Dragon Hound opened its mouth. A stream of dark flame gathered in its mouth and the Dark Dragon Hound shot the Dark Dragon Hound toward the wall of the test room like a cannonball.
With a boom, the wall didn't tremble. The energy was neutralized. After all, the wall was much stronger than the seal on the stage. Not even a legendary battle pet warrior could shake the wall.
Of course, the impact was neutralized. But Xu Kuang recognized the skill.
Not only did he recognize the Dark Flame Bullet, but he also recognized the Earth Protection and the Wind Shield!
The moment the Dark Dragon Hound, no, the Dark Dragon Hound, used the Earth Shield and the Wind Shield, Su Ping's mouth was already in an "O" shape.
Is this a Dark Dragon Hound?
Xu Kuang stared at the Dark Dragon Hound. If it weren't for the fact that the Dark Flame Bullet was a skill of the demon family, Xu Kuang would have thought that the Dark Dragon Hound was an advanced dragon!
Su Ping couldn't help but cast a meaningful glance at the lazy dog after seeing its trick.
Both of the Dark Dragon Hound's defensive skills were at the ninth-rank. However, the defensive skills could be retracted when there was no impact. The only thing that had consumed the Dark Dragon Hound was the eighth-rank Dark Flame Bullet.
He had let the Dark Dragon Hound play for a while but the Dark Dragon Hound was so lazy. Xu Kuang thought he had to find a chance to train the Dark Dragon Hound to get rid of its laziness.
Hiss!
All of a sudden, the Dark Dragon Hound felt a chill on its back. Its hair stood on end.
The Dark Dragon Hound felt that Su Ping was standing behind it, emitting a horrifying aura. Su Ping was looking down at the Dark Dragon Hound like two huge lanterns, as if he were going to devour the Dark Dragon Hound … This devil is thinking of something horrible again!
Woo!
The Dark Dragon Hound whined. Its desire to live was stimulated. The Dark Dragon Hound jumped into the stage.
Roar!!
The Dark Dragon Hound's hair stood on end. Flames surged out from the Dark Dragon Hound. At the moment, the Dark Dragon Hound's body was expanding. The Dark Dragon Hound was covered in flames that were surging out from hell!
At this moment, the Dark Dragon Hound had revealed its true form!
Killing intent, violence, ferocity, and bloodlust!
Roar!!
The Dark Dragon Hound raised its head and roared. It was a dragon's roar that woke Su Lingyue up from her cultivation state. She stared at the Dark Dragon Hound in astonishment.
Ice, fire, and lightning!
The three different ninth-rank skills were gathered around the Dark Dragon Hound. The air was torn apart, as if the end of the world had come.
The air in the stage was being torn apart. Then, all the skills landed on the wall.
With a bang, smoke came out from the wall. But no cracks appeared, and the wall didn't shake.
It was as if the Dark Dragon Hound had gathered a great deal of strength and then punched the air.
But that wasn't the case. It was just that the strength had been neutralized.
Outside the stage, Xu Kuang's mouth was wide open. He stared at the Dark Dragon Hound in a daze, unable to believe what he was seeing.
A moment later, he came back to his senses and looked at Su Ping.
Only then did he understand why the Dark Dragon Hound could be rented at such a high price!
Given the Dark Dragon Hound's combat strength, it would be worth it even if the price was several times higher!
At the moment, Xu Kuang was in awe of Su Ping. He had seen that the Dark Dragon Hound was summoned by Su Ping, which meant that the Dark Dragon Hound was his battle pet!
Su Ping had rented such a horrifying battle pet to Xu Kuang. Clearly, the Dark Dragon Hound was Su Ping's secondary pet.
Xu Kuang couldn't imagine how horrifying Su Ping's main battle pet would be.
"Sir, I am sorry!" Xu Kuang bowed to Su Ping. He regretted his words. At the same time, he was afraid that he would offend Su Ping and leave a bad impression on him.
He had worked so hard to get closer to Su Ping. He would cry his heart out if that relationship was ruined because of this!
Su Ping was taken aback by Xu Kuang's reaction. He didn't expect that Xu Kuang would react so strongly. But he didn't mind Xu Kuang's question. After all, it was normal for people to ask questions. He would do the same if he were in Xu Kuang's shoes.
"I told you that I am not your master. Also, do you still want to rent the Dark Dragon Hound? If so, you have to pay. Do you have enough money?" Su Ping asked.
Xu Kuang could tell that Su Ping wasn't mad at him. Gingerly, Xu Kuang raised his head. "Sir, have you forgiven me?"
Su Ping was speechless. "You didn't do anything to me. How could I forgive you?"
Xu Kuang heaved a sigh of relief. He scratched his head and said with a silly smile, "Master, you are indeed my master. I knew it. How could any of your battle pets be ordinary? I was being silly."
Su Ping called the Dark Dragon Hound back so that it wouldn't disturb Su Lingyue's cultivation. While calling the Dark Dragon Hound back, Su Ping waved at Su Lingyue who was still in a daze, telling her to continue.
"Sir, I only have enough money to rent the Dark Dragon Hound for two or three hours."
Out of instinct, Xu Kuang stepped back as the Dark Dragon Hound ran over and rubbed itself against Su Ping's trousers. Xu Kuang couldn't forget the murderous intent the Dark Dragon Hound had just emitted. He had only experienced the same feeling when he was fighting against that horrifying dragon.
"That's not enough." Su Ping thought about it. After all, he had to go to the arena early in the morning to prepare. He might have to stay there for four or five hours before it was his turn.
"It's okay. I will call my sister right away. My performance at the Elite League shocked both my sister and my dad. They will give me money if I ask for it."
Xu Kuang said at once. At the same time, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
Soon, the call was picked up.
Xu Kuang immediately told the person he wanted to borrow money. He was very obedient and would say yes every now and then. Not long after, he hung up. He turned around and grinned at Su Ping. "Sir, the money is ready. My sister earned me 20 million. She also said that if I can make it to the Top 5, she will give me another 20 million as a reward!"
"Oh, okay."
Su Ping was relieved to see that the matter was settled.
"Sir, I'll rent your Dark Dragon Hound then."
Xu Kuang asked gingerly, afraid that Su Ping would turn him down. The Dark Dragon Hound had just shown that it was as strong as a ninth-rank pet. The Dark Dragon Hound would be of great help to Xu Kuang the next day. Xu Kuang had a better chance of making it to the Top 5. Xu Kuang was even confident that he could defeat Liu Qingfeng if he ran into him again.
Su Ping nodded.
He wasn't used to renting out his battle pets. They were like family members and close friends. He would feel uncomfortable and uneasy about letting others take care of his battle pets.
But since things had happened so suddenly, he had no other choice.
He had promised to make it to the Top 5 and he meant it. He was glad that Xu Kuang had the financial ability to cooperate.
