After the Xuanwen Club's activities ended, Zhou Wen returned to his dorm and sent a message to The Thearch, saying that the items were ready for her to receive.
"Send them over," The Thearch replied.
Zhou Wen sent the items through the Void Flower's teleportation door. Although they weren't worth much, they still cost Zhou Wen more than 100,000 yuan. It made his heart ache slightly.
"The Thearch, you previously said that only the first Companion Beast on the rankings has benefits. Then, will there be any other benefits for first place?" Zhou Wen probed.
"Why are you asking this? Your Companion Beast isn't good enough to rank first. It's useless even if you know, "The Thearch replied.
"Even if I can't get first place, I can try my best to fight for a ranking. Will the other rankings give me any benefits?" From The Thearch's tone, Zhou Wen knew that it was as Sadie had said.
"Yes, but if you can't rank in the top ten, the benefits are very limited. Your Six-Winged Guardian Dragon's Wheel of Destiny is almost useless in the pet battle. Based on the Companion Beasts on the rankings, it's not bad if it can eventually reach the top thirty. The one on your ear hasn't even reached the Mythical stage. It can't enter the top hundred, "The Thearch said.
Can't I have other Companion Beasts? Zhou Wen said this inwardly and didn't send a message to The Thearch. He didn't want to expose his true strength in front of The Thearch.
"The Thearch, what are the benefits of being on the rankings?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"Do you want to know?" The Thearch's message quickly came back, but unfortunately, it wasn't an answer.
"Yes," Zhou Wen answered.
"I won't tell you if you want to know." The Thearch even sent a smug emoji behind the message.
Zhou Wen couldn't do anything to The Thearch, so all he could do was stop talking.
However, he was now certain that there were definitely benefits to being on the rankings. However, if his ranking was too low, the benefits wouldn't be great.
Just as The Thearch said, the Six-Winged Guardian Dragon is indeed not suitable for one-on-one combat. Its ranking definitely can't be high. Which Companion Beast should I send to give it a try? Zhou Wen was momentarily hesitant.
Once he was on the rankings, he definitely had to fight. Once he fought, he had to expose his Companion Beast's strength, giving others a chance to figure out a way to restrain it.
Zhou Wen was now thinking about which Companion Beast to expose. It would have the least impact on him in the future.
Zhou Wen wasn't in a rush to make a decision. He still had plenty of time, so he didn't need to be anxious. Furthermore, the rules of the ranking were that only low-level challengers could challenge high-level challengers. Zhou Wen didn't plan on challenging Primordial Sword Immortal right from the start.
"I have to ask An Sheng first if the Special Inspector Bureau and the Cape family's Companion Beasts are on the rankings. I'll start with them." Zhou Wen planned on catching them off guard and killing a few of their Companion Beasts on the rankings before personally settling scores with them.
Zhou Wen sent a message to An Sheng, but An Sheng didn't reply. He had no idea what he was busy with.
Forget it. I'll give it a try and see if I can use Grim Demon's blood to advance the First Order of Chaos. Zhou Wen called Demonic Neonate over.
"Neonate, get Grim Demon out. I need him to do something," Zhou Wen said to Demonic Neonate.
Demonic Neonate remained silent as she summoned Grim Demon from the ancient sword.
After Grim Demon appeared, his entire body was like a blob of black demonic aura. He looked like a human, but it was impossible to see what he really looked like.
Clang!
Zhou Wen placed a washbasin in front of Grim Demon and said, "I need a bit of your blood. I don't need too much. Just half a basin will do."
Grim Demon's expression instantly darkened. Thankfully, his body was a black demonic aura, so his expression couldn't be seen.
"No," Grim Demon said through gritted teeth.
"Neonate." Zhou Wen looked at Demonic Neonate.
Demonic Neonate turned to Grim Demon and glared at him.
Grim Demon immediately cowered. He gritted his teeth and said to Zhou Wen, "The blood of us Guardians is our life essence. There's not much in total, so it's impossible for me to give you that much. At most, I can only give you one drop."
"A hundred drops," Zhou Wen bargained.
"Two drops. I really can't give any more." Grim Demon's voice trembled as though he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
"99 drops. I can't give any less," Zhou Wen said without a change in expression.
After a final round of bargaining, Grim Demon refused to add any more drops no matter what. No matter how much Zhou Wen threatened or tempted him, it was useless.
"So be it. Give it to me." Zhou Wen didn't force Grim Demon any further when he saw that he had the intention to risk his life. If it was really useful, one drop was enough. Five drops was more than enough.
Grim Demon reluctantly extended his hand and pointed. Five drops of black liquid that resembled ink and emitted demonic aura flew out and floated in front of Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen reached out and grabbed the five drops of Grim Demon's blood in his palm. Then, he said to Demonic Neonate, "Alright, take him back."
Demonic Neonate extended the ancient sword in her arms. Grim Demon could only obediently possess the ancient sword.
"Be good. Go play with Banana Fairy." Zhou Wen patted Demonic Neonate's head and carried the five drops of Grim Demon's blood into the training room.
He circulated the First Order of Chaos in a bid to absorb the five drops of Grim Demon's blood, but the First Order of Chaos seemed to reject it and failed to absorb it.
Can't I absorb it? Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed. This proved that the attributes of the two were incompatible. Even if he forcefully absorbed the five drops of Grim Demon's blood into his body, it wouldn't be of much use.
Does it really have to be the blood of the Guardian in Ant City? Zhou Wen frowned as he looked at the five drops of Grim Demon's blood in front of him.
After some thought, he realized that he couldn't waste the five drops of blood. Zhou Wen switched to a few other Essence Energy Arts, hoping to see if they could be compatible with Grim Demon's blood.
In the end, they changed again. Although there were strong and weak repulsions, none of them were compatible with it.
Just as Zhou Wen was feeling depressed, he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his ear.
Could it be that Truth Listener is about to hatch? Zhou Wen summoned Truth Listener and saw that it was still in its Companion Beast form. It hadn't hatched.
However, the moment Truth Listener appeared, the five drops of Grim Demon's blood were sucked away by it. The five drops of blood fused into the golden crystal-like Companion Egg, staining the flawless golden color with five black impurities.
Isn't Truth Listener a Buddhist divine beast? Why does it need demonic blood? Zhou Wen was alarmed as he looked at the Companion Egg that had absorbed the demonic blood.
After Truth Listener's Companion Egg absorbed the demonic blood, the black color of the demonic blood gradually spread in the Companion Egg. It was as though a vat of clear water had been thrown into ink. The ink gradually spread in the clear water and soon dyed the entire Companion Egg black.
