Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 394 Trial of Fire

boom!

A wave of air instantly swept across the entire area, followed by a deafening roar.

The shockwave generated by the clash between Alpha and Li Xusheng had already exceeded the speed of sound!

"When did Xiao Xusheng become so amazing?!"

Looking at the aftermath of their battle, Wang Chuan was stunned, and the other three members of Team Zero were also somewhat surprised.

"Do you think that dual-talented individuals are just those who have one more talent? Xu Sheng's potential is inherently greater than ours; he just doesn't show it usually."

Looking down at the arena obscured by flames and blood lightning, Tan Lang said, "With the simultaneous fusion of five pet beasts and the control of blood, Xu Sheng's current combat power is absolutely invincible among those of the same level."

"Um, so what's this guy?"

Wang Chuan suddenly pointed at Bai Qi beside him. If Li Xusheng was invincible among his peers, then what was this guy who was fighting on par with Li Xusheng?

Tan Lang remained silent, while everyone's attention was drawn to the scene on the arena.

The arena was now in ruins, and in the very center of it stood a crystal skull, its four longswords pointing forward.

The sword tip was pointed at Li Xusheng, who had already been knocked out of the arena.

At this moment, Li Xusheng knelt on one knee, all five blood tails behind him disappeared, and beside him lay five pet beasts that were clearly in poor condition.

"I lost."

Li Xusheng glanced at the state of his pet, stood up, and readily admitted his defeat.

In the battle just now, neither side activated any force fields; it was simply a head-on clash.

Li Xusheng clearly realized that his strength was slightly higher than Alpha's, but he was far inferior in other aspects. After Alpha severed his five blood tails with four swords, his defeat was already certain.

The reason is simple: his five blood tails are formed by controlling the blood of his five pet beasts using his own blood. Although this greatly enhances his combat power, if the blood tails are severely damaged, the five pet beasts will also be significantly affected.

But a loss is a loss, and Li Xusheng won't make excuses for himself.

Seeing the two of them like this, the Eternal Night Blood Emperor also stepped up from his seat and landed on the arena.

"Now that you have won the final victory, relax and prepare to receive my blessing."

The Eternal Night Blood Emperor showed no regret for the complete annihilation of his bloodline. He directly condensed a small blood-red ball in his hand and intended to throw it at Alpha.

Upon seeing the Eternal Night Blood Emperor's actions, Alpha took a step back, then leaped back to Bai Qi's side.

"What, are you giving up on bestowing blessings?"

Seeing this, the Eternal Night Blood Emperor smiled faintly, as if he had anticipated Alpha's actions.

Bai Qi nodded and said, "That's right. If we give up the blessing, shouldn't it automatically be given to the second place winner according to the rules?"

Although Alpha defeated Li Xusheng, according to the rules, if the first place winner forfeits, the prize can be passed on to the second place winner. In this way, Alpha can be completed without putting them in a difficult position, and the commission for the thirteenth game can still be fulfilled.

Win-win!

"Normally, that's how it is. Not only can you transfer the second place to someone who didn't participate."

A wicked smile appeared on the Eternal Night Blood Emperor's face as he said, "But I don't want to..."

Upon hearing the words of the Eternal Night Blood Emperor, Bai Qi's smile froze, but before he could discuss it with Yi Yu, the Eternal Night Blood Emperor suddenly threw the blood orb in his hand into Li Xusheng's body.

"Yeah, right."

The Eternal Night Blood Emperor leaped lightly and returned to its position, while Li Xusheng, who had absorbed the blood orb, suddenly had streams of blood gushing out, enveloping him and his five pet beasts.

Crackling.

(Boss, I feel like the levels of those pet beasts are increasing rapidly, and their connection with Li Xusheng is also getting deeper and deeper.)

"Directly boost levels?"

Bai Qi raised an eyebrow, looking down at Li Xusheng whose aura was growing stronger, and suddenly felt a little regretful.

I feel like I've lost out.

"Don't worry, the 13th inning won't let you suffer."

Yi Yu seemed to have sensed Bai Qi's thoughts, smiled and made a promise to Bai Qi, then leaped up and arrived directly in front of Li Xusheng. With a light tap, Li Xusheng disappeared from the spot.

"I'll take Xusheng back to rest first. I'll come back to discuss the payment with you later."

After saying that, Yi Yu nimbly weaved through the crowded beasts and ran towards the Thirteenth Bureau's rest room.

The first trial of blood ended in such a dramatic way. Although the extraordinary beings did not understand why Alpha would give up the blessing of blood, they quickly put it out of their minds when they thought of the exciting battle just now.

Some beast tamers, however, were quite unhappy with Bai Qi's behavior.

But all I can do is complain silently.

Neither the Thirteenth Bureau nor the Association are forces they can contend with. What can they do besides complain?

Moreover, the Trial of Blood is over; it's time to set our sights on the next trial.

"I'll take the lead in the next match."

The Fire Guardian, Crimson Lotus Succubus, whose entire body was enveloped in dark red flames, stood up. Looking at the arena below, which had been destroyed in many places, she raised her hands to her chest, and a fire lotus suddenly took shape and slowly floated down to the ground.

In an instant, the red lotus bloomed and grew larger and larger, quickly taking over the position of the arena.

"My trial of fire is very simple. All you need to do is enter the small world inside this red lotus petal, and the first one to return to the lotus pod will receive my blessing."

The Crimson Lotus Succubus's test was significantly more complex than that of the Eternal Night Blood Emperor; judging by the number of lotus petals, there were a full thirty-six.

In other words, in that instant, the Crimson Lotus Succubus had already constructed thirty-six small worlds?

"The Twelve Guardians, they really aren't just a name."

Bai Qi glanced at the Crimson Lotus Succubus above, whose form was obscured by fiery red petals, then grabbed the cordyceps beside him and threw it down, quickly seizing a patch of Crimson Lotus.

Seeing Bai Qi's actions, the other beast tamers and extraordinary creatures finally reacted, scrambling to jump onto the red lotus and occupy the remaining petals.

Soon, all thirty-six petals were taken over, while the supernatural creatures, who were a beat slower, were pushed back by an invisible force.

The thirty-six petals also represent thirty-six qualifications for the challenge.

The Trial of Fire had already begun when the Crimson Succubus announced the rules!

"Bai Qi didn't send his skeletal creature, but instead sent an insect-type pet? Is he out of his mind, completely arrogant?"

Seeing this, Lilith launched into her usual sarcastic remark. Alpha had clearly displayed such strong fire-type skills, yet Bai Qi had sent out a bug-type creature that was weak against fire. It was truly a bit idiotic.

"Lilith, I've told you many times, don't underestimate an opponent who has defeated you. If you still don't remember, I will consider asking the patriarch to revoke your divine divine nature as an angel of judgment."

Dean's gaze swept lightly over Lilith, whose face turned deathly pale. She nodded repeatedly, not daring to say another word.

She knew very well that Dean would definitely do what he said, and she tried her best to restrain herself, but she just couldn't control herself when she saw Bai Qi appear.

Perhaps it was because the scene of Gamma tearing apart the wings of the Judgment Angel had caused her too much trauma.

"Keep a close eye on your opponent; it will greatly benefit your future development, especially when Iris faces him..."

Dean looked at the Judgment Angel, who had also snatched a petal.

"Chief, are you really sure you want me to participate in this trial? I'm just an insect and a plant..."

Whether it's insect-type or plant-type bloodline, insects and plants are naturally somewhat averse to flames, not to mention that the surrounding pets are all radiating high temperatures.

Compared to blood control, fire is definitely the mainstream ability, and there are the most extraordinary creatures with this attribute.

That is why almost all of those standing on this red lotus are king-level fire creatures.

"And dragons... You at least possess both mythical and legendary bloodlines, don't be such a coward."

Seeing the cordyceps' appearance, Bai Qi couldn't help but be speechless, saying, "Even if it's just an insect, you should at least look at what kind of insect it is, right? It inherited the bloodline of the Sun Wheel Beetle, and you're telling me you're afraid of fire?"

"That seems to make sense?"

Upon hearing this, Cordyceps suddenly understood and regained its confidence.

"Be serious. If the legacy of fire is lost, I won't care what Gamma does to you again."

Upon hearing Bai Qi's words, Cordyceps immediately tensed up, and an unprecedented fighting spirit suddenly erupted from his entire body.

I'll risk everything to avoid being caught by Gamma and boiled into soup!

"Bai Qi, what did you and your pet say? Why are you suddenly so serious?"

Wang Chuan suddenly appeared from the side, looked at the Cordyceps below who looked eager to try, and said, "I really look forward to seeing what will happen when he faces Ye Ge."

"Is Ye Ge also a fire-type beast tamer? Then Epsilon probably has no hope."

Bai Qi casually offered a compliment, but his nonchalant demeanor made it hard to believe him.

"Hahaha... Bai Qi, you really are something else. But you need to be careful of Ye Ge, though."

Wang Chuan pursed his lips and looked at the Judgment Angel beside him.

"This guy has been keeping Ye Ge in check for years."

"Wang Chuan, do you want to spar with me again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi felt a cold gaze sweep over him from the side, and the surrounding temperature dropped instantly. His breath condensed into ice mist.

Is this... an ice-type talent?

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised that an ice-type talent could actually form a contract with a fire-type pet?

Is this because they're afraid of getting cold, so they're making a fire to keep warm?

"Ah ha~ Ye Ge, you're actually getting all fired up! If the minister saw this, he'd definitely praise me!"

Wang Chuan seemed oblivious to Ye Ge's displeasure, continuing to recount Ye Ge and Iris's past until Tan Lang spoke up, at which point he reluctantly stopped.

"Watch the game carefully. The minister's task for us is to try our best to obtain all the blessings, so everyone better take it seriously!"
