The Spirit Beast Arena was directly under the purview of the Thousand Beast City’s Grand Chieftain, Qu Wen Hao, and even the four Clan Chiefs themselves have no authourity to interfere in the Spirit Beast Arena’s affairs.
“You!” Shangguan Yan had not thought that an outsider would know the internal rules of the Thousand Beast City so well. When he was just about to say something more about it, a deep resonating bellow suddenly rocked the hall.
“The Icy Frost Clan is really getting more and more audacious in disregarding the rules! They have actually dared to force their way into my Fiery Blaze Clan Hall with all their men like this! Do you all really think that the Clan Chief of the Fiery Blaze Clan is dead! ?” Xiong Ba’s face was dark and threatening as he stormed in from outside.
He had been busy with some business within the city when he had suddenly received news from his brothers in the clan, who had told him that people from the Icy Frost Clan had come barging in to stir up trouble.
Volume 10
Chapter 993: “Even Before the Water Had Calmed (4)”
Xiong Ba had immediately thrown down the things he was doing at that moment and hurried his way back here. Immediately upon stepping into the clan hall, he had seen Shangguan Yan’s overbearing attitude and an unsuppressable fiery rage had instantly been lit in his heart.
Lin Que had switched his allegiance to that person and that had in turn made everyone in the Icy Frost Clan begin to consider everyone else to be beneath them and they started to disregard people from all the other three clans.
Shangguan Yan had not expected Xiong Ba to suddenly return and when he saw the towering figure, he could not help but to feel a little nervous.
Xiong Ba was famous for his fiery temperament in the Thousand Beast City and when he gets provoked, the towering man does not hold himself back at all.
“Clan Chief Xiong.” Shangguan Yan looked awkwardly at Xiong Ba.
Xiong Ba snorted coldly with derision and said: “The Icy Frost Clan seems to have stretched their hands a little too far this time. The Spirit Beast Arena would naturally have their own rules and if Shangguan Yan, you feel that Young Master Jun’s Spirit Beast has a problem, you can jolly well find another person to challenge him with a Spirit Beast, and you can then ask the people from the Spirit Beast Arena to inspect them carefully at that time. Wouldn’t that resolve your doubts? You had instead decided to come here to my place and kick up such a big fuss for who to see? I, Xiong Ba, am still very much alive! As long as I am still around, the Fiery Blaze Clan Hall will never allow anyone to exhibit such atrocious behaviour here!”
Xiong Ba’s eyes glared fiercely, driving chills to run right through Shangguan Yan’s entire body.
“Why are you still standing here for? Hurry up and scram! Or are you waiting for me to ask my brothers in the Fiery Blaze Clan Hall to invite you to leave?” Xiong Ba chided with his booming voice.
As arrogant as Shangguan Yan was, he still did not dare to go against Xiong Ba directly right before so many people. Having been berated till his face was splattered with spit, Shangguan Yan could do nothing but to beat a retreat from the Fiery Blaze Clan Hall with his face darkened in gloom.
Once Shangguan Yan left, Xiong Ba made all the brothers in the Clan Hall disperse and to go back to their own tasks while he brought Qing Yu and Jun Xie to the courtyard at the back of the clan hall. When he was sure that there was nobody else around, Xiong Ba finally asked in puzzlement: “What really happened there? I heard from our brothers that people from the Icy Frost Clan came to stir up trouble, and how did Shangguan Yan end up setting his sights on Young Master Jun?”
Xiong Ba had only heard a little about it as he rushed back here and he wasn’t really aware of what had really occurred.
Qing Yu immediately related the events that happened that day to Xiong Ba.
Xiong Ba finally understood.
“No wonder that bastard Shangguan Yan dared to be so aggressive. It must be because of the fact that his wastrel of a son had been bullied into such a state by the Spirit Beast of Jun Xie that drove him to come all the way here? Hahaha! That’s great to hear! Serves him right when he can’t even control his own Spirit Beast. Having met with such misfortune, was entirely his own fault.”
“In fact, this incident actually doesn’t have much to do with Young Master Jun. It was his own Six Armed Black Ape that went mad and charged off the battle platform and crashed into Shangguan Miao. Shangguan Yan is obviously trying to abuse his position here.” Qing Yu said with a frown on his face. Accidents in the Spirit Beast Arena happened occasionally, but they were never seen to be anything major.
Since the beginning when Lord Meh Meh had entered the Spirit Beast Arena, it had not forgone any of the checks required and that was a point that Qing Yu was very certain of.
Although he was deeply curious himself how Lord Meh Meh had been able to frighten the Six Armed Black Ape into fleeing, he firmly believed that Lord Meh Meh had done it with its own strength, and not with any outside influence.
“It’s not that big a matter and I do not think that it is that big of a loss to Lin Que that he would dare carry this too far. But Shangguan Yan might not let go of it so easily and I am guessing he will be sending many people to challenge Young Master Jun’s Spirit Beast.” Xiong Ba said. He then turned to Jun Xie and went on to say: “That’s really great! I had not thought that that cuddly and weak looking Spirit Beast of yours would really be so capable that it was even able to scare off the Six Armed Spirit Beast. I noticed that it was highly obedient before, don’t tell me that Young Master Jun knows how to tame Spirit Beasts as well?”
Jun Wu Xie replied expressionlessly: “Fate put us together.”
Taming? She didn’t really have that much leisure time.
It was Lord Meh Meh who had stuck itself to her so persistently then and now there was even another Sacrificial Blood Rabbit as well!
Volume 10
Chapter 994: “Even Before the Water Had Calmed (5)”
“Be a little more careful yourself. If you feel it is too much of a bother deal with, just tell the Spirit Beast Arena and withdraw your participation.” Xiong Ba wasn’t too concerned about the Spirit Beast Arena and he could not understand why Jun Xie had suddenly developed such a strong interest towards the Spirit Beast Arena.
Fortunately, although the Thousand Beast City was controlled by that person at that time, that person wouldn’t involve herself with such trifling matters and it would basically still be Qu Wen Hao who would decide in matters like this, hence, the Icy Frost Clan would not dare to carry this matter too far.
“I know.” Jun Wu Xie replied. She was not worried that the people from the Spirit Beast Arena would be able to detect anything on Lord Meh Meh. She knew as long as Lord Meh Meh willed it, it was able to completely hide its powers and regardless of how hard they might try to check, it would still show itself to be just a low grade Spirit Beast.
Jun Wu Xie did not want Lord Meh Meh’s identity as a Guardian Grade Spirit Beast to be exposed and neither was she about to give up on the Spirit Tamer Bracelet. She would wait to see just what kind of things the Icy Frost Clan would be able to come up with.
“If you know, then that’s good enough.” Xiong Ba was very confident of that highly intelligent mind in that little head and with Jun Xie’s word of assurance, he wasn’t really too worried about it.
The Fiery Blaze Clan had somewhat settled down after that fiery exchange earlier but things within the Icy Frost Clan at that moment was bubbling to a boil.
“What? Shangguan Yan did not manage to capture Jun Xie’s Spirit Beast?” Lin Feng stared at the servant kneeling before him. He had sent people to inform his father earlier, asking for him to have Jun Xie’s Spirit Beast investigated and his father had sent Shangguan Yan over. Afterall, the one who had gotten injured was Shangguan Miao and Shangguan Yan would surely not be soft while still in a rage for what had happened to his son.
Unexpectedly, they had still not
managed to get their hands on Jun Xie’s Spirit Beast and they had even been severely berated by Xiong Ba in the end.
“The Clan Chief of the Fiery Blaze said that even if an inspection was to be done, it would have to be at the Spirit Beast Arena and that would be happen when someone challenges them. Young Master, the Spirit Beast Arena is under the Grand Chieftain’s purview and even the Icy Frost Clan would not be able to interfere with the way they work.” The servant said softly.
Lin Feng’s jaw clenched up tightly. Shangguan Miao was still bedridden while Jun Xie had just come to the Thousand Beast City for barely two days and he had already taken the Spirit Beast Arena’s top rank. If this news reached Qu Ling Yue, it would be disastrous.
Lin Feng racked his brains, thinking the matter cannot end here.
Suddenly, an idea struck him!
“How is the Devious Wyvern’s progress these few days?” Lin Feng suddenly asked.
The servant was startled a moment before he said with a nod: “Its taming is almost about to complete.”
“Good.” Lin Feng said with a cold laugh. “A little boy from outside really thinks his own little Spirit Beast can come to the Thousand Beast City and declare its dominance here? I would really like to see whether his low grade Spirit Beast is able to stand before the might of the Devious Wyvern!”
When the servant heard that, it immediately bowed his head to the ground in plea.
“Young Master! That idea must not be considered! The Devious Wyvern is the congratulatory gift the Master has prepared for Great Grandaunt. If he finds out that you took the Devious Wyvern out, I’m afraid…..”
“Shut up!” Lin Feng said angrily. “I am only borrowing the Devious Wyvern for a day or two. What can happen? Don’t tell me you really think that that tiny low grade Spirit Beast will be able to harm the Devious Wyvern? I am merely feeding the Devious Wyvern a tiny snack that’s all. After it swallows up Jun Xie’s Spirit Beast, I will naturally bring the Devious Wyvern safely back, and father will still be able to offer it as a gift to Great Grandaunt.”
The servant remained shivering on the floor, not daring to say a word.
Ling Feng was marveling at his own brilliance. The Devious Wyvern had been hardly difficult to tame and his father had only managed to get it tamed after he found an old man who had lived in seclusion for many years to gradually tame it. And the Devious Wyvern recognised its owner not by the person, but it was by an item!
Volume 10
Chapter 995: “Devious Wyvern (1)”
As it was to be gifted to that person, hence, it must see no one else as its owner, and they had to do it with an item instead.
“Find an unfamiliar face and have him bring the Devious Wyvern to go participate in the Spirit Beast Arena. Ten consecutive victories must be achieved today and then issue a challenge to Jun Xie and his Spirit Beast. By this time tomorrow, I do not want to hear news that the kid’s Spirit Beast is still alive.” He was not able to make a move on Jun Xie directly at that moment, so he would just kill his Spirit Beast first!
A chilling and malicious glint filled up Lin Feng’s eyes.
…..
A new storm shook the Spirit Beast Arena. A never before seen Spirit Beast blew through the Spirit Beast Arena’s matches and took down ten opponents quickly on the same day. Very soon after that, Jun Xie received a challenge issued to her.
When the people from the Spirit Beast Arena sent the challenge to her, Jun Wu Xie was not surprised at all and she calmly accepted it.
But Qing Yu was instead feeling that it seemed there was more to it than meets the eye and after questioning the man from the Spirit Beast Arena, his mood had suddenly taken a turn for the worst where he immediately went to see Jun Xie.
“Young Master Jun! For tomorrow’s match, you must not go.” Qing Yu said, looking sternly at Jun Xie, his voice solemn.
“Why?” Jun Xie asked, looking at Qing Yu.
Qing Yu’s bit on his lip worriedly and said: “I asked the people from the Spirit Beast Arena earlier more about the opponent’s Spirit Beast. They told me that it was brought in by a youth they have never met before. The Spirit Beast’s body is like that of a serpent but has a pair of horns on its head, and its body is fully covered with green scale armour. If my guess is not wrong, that Spirit Beast is not just any ordinary low grade Spirit Beast. It is highly possible that it is the Spirit Beast the Clan Chief of the Icy Frost Clan, Lin Que, had captured from out in the wilds, the Devious Wyvern.”
“Devious Wyvern?” Jun Wu Xie asked, an eyebrow lifting up. She had never heard of such a Spirit Beast.
Qing Yu continued: “The Devious Wyvern is a high grade Spirit Beast, but it is just barely one step away from becoming a Guardian Grade Spirit Beast and we have only heard that such Spirit Beasts exist only through rumours. According to those rumours, the Devious Wyvern possesses extremely high healing powers and it can molt its scales three times. After it shed its scales for the third time, it turns into a real Guardian Grade Spirit Beast. That person had once mentioned about the Devious Wyvern to the Grand Chieftain and asked the Grand Chieftain to search for it, but the Grand Chieftain had not agreed. Instead, Lin Que had privately mobilised a high number of people and spent close to ten years before he managed to find the Devious Wyvern. It is said, in order to capture that Devious Wyvern, almost a hundred of Lin Que’s men had lost their lives and that even three of their tamed high grade Spirit Beasts had been sacrificed.”
News about the Devious Wyvern’s capture had been kept a secret within the Thousand Beast City and few people were made aware of it. Qing Yu was one of the rare few who had been fortunate enough to lay eyes upon the magnificent Devious Wyvern. The first time he saw the Devious Wyvern, it had just been captured and brought back. Although close to a hundred lives were lost then, the Devious Wyvern had not seemed to have sustained any heavy injuries at all. It had been highly violent when it was trapped in its cage and a ordinary cage was not able to contain it. Hence, Lin Que had to use darksteel to forge into a cage just to keep it in.
“Devious Wyverns are naturally born with an unquenchable thirst for blood and it loves to swallow live animals whole. Its body possesses an extremely strong self healing ability and as long as the wound is not mortal, it is able to heal and recover from them very quickly. I know that your Spirit Beast has rather extraordinary abilities as well, but that Devious Wyvern has already molted its scales twice and its just shy of one more time before it is be promoted to become a full Guardian Grade Spirit Beast, which in turn, is a Spirit Beast that no other Spirit Beast will be able to stand against.” Qing Yu said, highly concerned about Jun Xie, as he could see that Jun Xie treasured Lord Meh Meh very much.
And the challenge this time, had come directly targeted straight at Jun Xie!
Volume 10
Chapter 996: “Devious Wyvern (2)”
The Devious Wyvern had been in Lin Que’s hands all this while and after successfully taming it, it was to be gifted to that person. But the Devious Wyvern had now appeared in the Spirit Beast Arena and that was a matter thought to be rather incredulous.
People who were had the authourity to bring out the Devious Wyvern, besides Lin Que himself, the next person could only be his son, Lin Feng!
Lin Feng’s animosity against Jun Xie, had begun from the moment Jun Xie had first come to the Thousand Beast City. Now that Lin Feng’s closest friend, Shangguan Miao, who was almost like a brother to him, had even gotten severely injured because of Jun Xie, Lin Feng was even more driven to exact revenge upon Jun Xie, and that was why he had so daringly pushed the incredibly precious Devious Wyvern into the fracas.
The Spirit Beast Arena only controlled whether contestants possessed a Spirit Tamer Bracelet and did not set any limits on the grade of the Spirit Beasts that could compete.
And as the matter about the Devious Wyvern had been a well kept secret, the people of the Spirit Beast Arena had naturally not recognized it.
Qing Yu knew all about it
but he could not reveal any information about it to the public. As that was meant as a gift for that person and if it was made known now, that person might be forced to act immediately instead.
“Is that so?” Jun Wu Xie replied nonchalantly.
Qing Yu saw that Jun Xie was not the least bit nervous and that made him more anxious instead. “That Devious Wyvern has been with Lin Que for more than a year and it might very well have molted its scales once more since I last heard about it. Young Master Jun, there really isn’t a point to continue with this competition anymore.”
Jun Wu Xie did not reply. Whatever Qing Yu had thought of, Jun Wu Xie would naturally be able to do the same.
The appearance of the Devious Wyvern, was undoubtedly an act of revenge from some damned kid, but…..
He had chosen the wrong person to mess with this time!
Jun Wu Xie did not give Qing Yu any reply and Qing Yu had thought that Jun Xie had finally realized the gravity of the matter and was now reconsidering it, which allowed him to sigh in relief softly.
Jun Wu Xie went back to her room and she stared at the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit currently locked in a scuffle with Lord Meh Meh on the bed, her brows quickly creasing up tightly together to form a deep frown.
“Meh!”
[Go away, you scheming rabbit! This is Lord Meh Meh’s territory!]
“Puu!”
[Nonsense! This is the Mistress’ burrow!]
The two dumb beasts did not use any of their Guardian Grade Spirit Beast powers and were only purely using their current tiny bodies in their fight. Lord Meh Meh was biting on the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit’s ears while the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit’s mouth was nibbling on Lord Meh Meh’s stubby tail…..
