"Go ahead."
Su Ping didn't stop the Inferno Dragon, who was eager to try.
The Inferno Dragon was as strong as most advanced Star State experts at the moment. After all, the laws he had taught it and the pure astral power that had been condensed through hundreds of Heavenly Tribulations gave it a great burst of power.
Roar!!
The Inferno Dragon suddenly roared. Lightning and fire were surging around its body. The Inferno Dragon dashed toward the evil dragon with great momentum.
"Huh?"
"That dragon is in the Fate State?"
In the palace high in the sky, Hai Tuo and the others were all stunned, somewhat surprised.
The Inferno Dragon's level could be hidden from other people, but not from the Ascendant State experts.
They had expected that Su Ping would be strong, thanks to Huan Lieshen's information, but they didn't expect his pet to be so weird. Normally, all the other contestants would have strong pets in the early phase of the Star State, but Su Ping was using a pet of the same level as himself.
He might have been careless, but his pet was as intimidating as the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon!
"What kind of dragon is that? Its aptitude is horrifying!"
"I can't tell. It seems to be a hybrid. The universe is too big; there are always weird hybrids every year. However, few of them have such a top bloodline!"
"That pet's aptitude is already comparable to that of the top geniuses!"
The Ascendant State experts were quite surprised. If the dragon's bloodline had a high upper limit, it would definitely be a rare pet that could be used until the Star Lord State.
Apart from them, some of the Star Lords and trainers who were watching the livestream had also noticed the dragon's level.
The others thought that the dragon was in the early phase of the Star State; it was only slightly stronger than the others' pets. However, they could tell that it was in the Fate State, which was quite shocking!
"Could this be his trump card?"
"A Fate State pet with such a level? It's definitely a top pet of the dragon family. Record its appearance and data. We can sell it at a high price if we find a relative with similar data!"
"It's really a monster controlling a monster."
As the Star Lords and trainers commented, more and more people learned that the dragon was in the Fate State. All the viewers were shocked.
Inside the continent, the Inferno Dragon was fighting the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon.
On the other hand, Su Ping was standing on the side. He seemed to be treating this trial as a chance for his pets to practice their skills.
"That dragon beast …"
Outside of the continent — Among the contestants who had retreated, Dragon Devil had a complicated look in his eyes. He felt that the dragon was even stronger than the one he had encountered before. Or rather, the dragon didn't use its full strength in the mysterious realm at all. He had heard about it from his teacher, but he didn't expect it to have so much hidden strength!
Roar!!
With a roar, the Inferno Dragon suppressed the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon with its deterrence, stunning it for a moment. In such a top-level battle, even an instant could be fatal. That was the strength of pets of the dragon family. The Inferno Dragon instantly flapped its wings and tore the dragon apart with divine light.
A crack was left in the fifth space, and the Inferno Dragon instantly pierced through, tearing apart the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon's wings and shoulder blades.
Scales and blood splashed out. Twenty laws were gathered in the Inferno Dragon's claws as it waved them, forcing the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon to retreat.
Su Ping had been distracting the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon. He was quite satisfied to see the Inferno Dragon's proficiency in using laws. The Inferno Dragon would be able to suppress the Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon easily if it could absorb the laws he taught it.
Roar! Roar!
The two dragons roared furiously and fought each other.
Flames and lightning flashed. The Ferocious Skull Demon Dragon was finally slain after a couple of minutes. The Inferno Dragon bit off its neck and devoured its flesh. The brutal scene shocked all the spectators.
The Dragon Emperor, the Wooden Sword Boy, Oasis Gray and the others changed their expressions upon seeing that. On the other side — Hayalim, who had never seen Su Ping in action, also gazed at the dragon with a solemn expression.
The girl named Su Jin 'er was the only one who was still smiling, but there was curiosity in her eyes.
"Even we couldn't defeat the beast used in the test, but it was killed by his pet."
In the rear — the contestants who didn't have the courage to fight for the championship were all shocked.
In their eyes, the dragon used for the test was already brutal enough; it had even slain a genius like Queen of the Seas. Still, Su Ping's pet had taken care of the monstrous creature that was as intimidating as a mountain.
In other words, Su Ping wouldn't have had to do anything if they had been up against him; his pet alone would have been enough.
At the same time —
After the Inferno Dragon was full, he called it back and went back to where he was outside the continent.
Little White also unmerged and returned to the contract space. It seemed quite relaxed; after all, it hadn't done much during the whole test; it had only interfered with the battle.
"Your pets are really good!"
Su Jin 'er turned her head and remarked with a weird expression the moment he stood still.
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He then replied with a smile, "Yes, they're all good."
"Them?" Su Jin 'er's eyes glittered; she was even more intrigued.
On the other side — the Dragon Emperor, Linghu Jian and the others looked at Su Ping with complicated expressions. Was it really necessary to compete with him? They had worked so hard to defeat the beast, but the guy had finished it off with his pet alone. If they were to run into Su Ping later, Su Ping could have sent two more pets that were as strong as the dragon to finish them off.
Not only would they lose, they would also lose in an ugly and humiliating way!
"Very good. I didn't expect six of you to pass the test. You're all very excellent!" The Star Lord's eyes flashed when he saw Su Ping return to his position. He then calmed down and said casually, "You would've been qualified to win the championship in any other galaxy, but there are too many geniuses in this galaxy. You'll have to keep competing!
"Before we begin, I'd like to ask one more question. Who wants to give up?"
Everybody looked at each other in bewilderment, but none of them quit.
The Star Lord said casually, "Very good. I'll pick the winners. First, Linghu Jian. Step forward!"
Linghu Jian frowned, but he still stepped forward. However, he subconsciously looked at Su Ping on his left when he did so.
"Linghu Jian is now the champion. Does anyone have any objections?" The Star Lord glanced at the other five people with cold and majestic eyes.
All of them were stunned. Were the rules of the competition so simple and straightforward?
"I've long heard that the Sword God's heir is as good as Senior Beihai's sword aura. I'd like to see what you're capable of." Hayalim stepped forward amidst the silence. Her tone was gentle, but she was determined to fight.
Linghu Jian glanced at her calmly, but didn't say anything.
"I've always wanted to compete with the Sword Deity Academy. Let's practice on Brother Linghu." Dragon Emperor stepped forward too. His voice was calm, but his words were arrogant.
"Then I'd like to play too," said Su Jin 'er casually with a smile, revealing her white teeth.
Linghu Jian's expression slightly changed as he gazed at her.
Su Ping didn't know what the rules of the competition were; it would be bad if he were to give up and be disqualified. He also said, "I'd like to see what you're capable of, too."
Linghu Jian's face slightly changed as he walked out. His eyes became cold and filled with coldness.
None of the five people dared to challenge him, except for Oasis!
The Star Lord raised his eyebrows; he didn't expect that the Sword God's heir wouldn't be able to intimidate them. However, he was relieved after considering their previous performance. He said, "Okay, go back first. The second one, Dragon Emperor, step forward."
The Dragon Emperor was stunned for a moment before he stepped forward.
"Does anyone have a problem with him being the champion?"
Linghu Jian was the first to step forward after hearing that. "Me."
"Me too." Hayalim stepped forward too.
"Hehe."
Su Jin 'er didn't say anything, but she stepped forward too, making her attitude clear.
Oasis snorted and stepped forward too. He wasn't confident in defeating Linghu Jian, but he wasn't willing to give up so easily when it came to the Dragon Emperor. He had to try even if he couldn't beat him!
Su Ping stepped forward after seeing that.
Everybody's attitude was clear in the blink of an eye. Nobody was convinced!
Seeing this, the Dragon Emperor's face turned ugly and ashen.
"Let's go back," said the Star Lord casually.
Said the Star Lord casually. Then, he read out another name and said the same thing.
This time, it was Hayalim.
The Dragon Emperor, Linghu Jian and the others seemed to have investigated the woman; they were wary of her. In the end, Su Jin 'er, Su Ping and Linghu Jian were the only ones who stepped forward to express their disagreement.
Next was Su Jin 'er.
This time, four people expressed their disagreement. They were Su Ping, the Dragon Emperor, Linghu Jian and Hayalim.
In the end, it was Su Ping's turn.
"Is there anyone who doesn't agree?" asked the Star Lord casually.
This time, there was a brief silence.
The Dragon Emperor, Linghu Jian and the others looked at each other. They still remembered what had happened in the Illusionary Mysterious Realm. The man had dominated the entire competition and was way ahead of them in terms of points.
After a brief silence, neither of them stepped forward.
Hayalim's eyes flashed for a moment, but she didn't step forward either.
However, someone still walked out of the crowd. It was none other than Su Jin 'er. She said with a smile, "I'd like to see your other pets."
Su Ping nodded.
"Great!" Said the Star Lord. "It seems that you all have your own opinions. Now, let's proceed with the allocation. Su Ping will be a candidate for the champion, while the other five of you will compete for a spot. The winner will compete with Su Ping for the championship!"
He continued, "Of course, there's no need to worry about fairness. Lord Hai Tuo will heal the winner of your competition. Even if your pet dies, it will be revived. You can fight to your heart's content!"
All of them slightly changed their expressions after hearing that; they didn't expect that to be the reason why they had been asked to step forward.
The rules of the selection were too simple and crude.
The audience outside was also seething with excitement and shock. Resurrecting a dead battle pet? Could an Ascendant State expert have such a horrifying ability?
Su Ping was also surprised. None of the creatures above the Ascendant State he had encountered in the Chaotic Realm of the Undead were capable of reviving them, unless they were undead. However, it was clearly not reviving the undead, but completely restoring them to their original state. Was that really something an Ascendant State expert could do?
"Where's the system? Come out and answer my question!"
Su Ping said to himself after waiting for a moment.
A few seconds later, the system said in a low voice, "The rules of your universe are less restrictive. Even Ascendant State experts can master the path of time. Also, you're in the Ascendant State expert's small world. All the rules in the small world are set by the master. It's the same in any world."
Su Ping was stunned. We're in the Ascendant State expert's small world?
He looked at the vast continent in front of him. Is this Hai Tuo's small world?
It's so vast that it's comparable to a hundred Blue Star Planets!
So to speak, Queen of the Seas can be revived too? Right, she must be. She hasn't been revived yet because the others have realized the seriousness of the situation, but she'll definitely be revived later. After all, she's a genius and can easily make it to the top ten. It would be a shame for her to die in vain.
Su Ping thought to himself.
"Are you dissatisfied with the rules?" asked the Star Lord as he looked at Su Jin 'er and the others.
The five of them looked at Su Ping. Obviously, if there was anything they were unconvinced about, it was because Su Ping could directly enter the final round. However … when they thought about Su Ping's previous performance, they couldn't help but feel unconvinced.
The guy's pets were already so horrifying. Who could guarantee that he wasn't capable himself?
Very soon, someone looked at Su Jin 'er and suddenly had an idea. Had she not stood up for Su Ping, would the champion have been Su Ping?
Their hearts skipped a beat when they thought of that; they felt even more grateful to Su Jin 'er.
"Neither of you are convinced. You can challenge each other. The winner will be qualified to continue." The Star Lord pointed at the Dragon Emperor and Oasis Gray.
Both of them had stepped forward to express their dissatisfaction.
Anger flashed through Dragon Emperor's eyes. He had been the top since he was a child. Even in a place like the Dragon Tomb Academy, where geniuses were as common as clouds, he was far from being able to catch up. Yet now, he had fallen to the bottom and was hanging out with trash like Oasis Gray. He felt ashamed.
"You'll regret challenging me!"
Said the Dragon Emperor in a low voice as he looked at Oasis Gray gloomily.
Oasis Gray said coldly, "Please make me regret it sooner."
"Humph!"
The Dragon Emperor clenched his fists.
The Star Lord ignored them and said to Su Jin 'er, Hayalim and Hayalim, "You two will form a team. The winner will be determined. If nobody else challenges you, you'll have to fight Su Ping."
Su Jin 'er said helplessly, "Fine."
The Star Lord looked at Linghu Jian and said, "The winner of the duel between Dragon Emperor and Ogres will fight you, and the winner of the duel will fight the winner of the duel for a place in the finals."
"Okay."
Linghu Jian nodded and had no objections. However, he knew that it would be difficult for him to win the championship if the competition was absolutely fair.
