Chapter 314 - The Tower

Chapter 314 The Tower

“Right. The Supremacy League comes after the Elite League.”

Qin Shuhai continued after a smile, “Given your strength and talent, Brother Su, that will be a perfect platform for you to demonstrate your abilities. The Supremacy League is the stage for us titled battle pet warriors.”

Su Ping had already heard about the Supremacy League but he lacked the interest. He could tell that Qin Shuhai was going to participate. “Any rewards?” asked Su Ping.

To win a reputation in itself was pointless. There had to be something else.

Take the Elite League for example. The global champion could receive instructions from legendary battle pet warriors or even take the latter as their teachers.

SOI.

That was the most notable benefit that countless people earnestly longed for. Even some titled battle pet warriors would hope that some legendary battle pet warriors could give them some pointers and that also applied to people like Venerable the Blade. He wished for a chance to communicate with legendary battle pet warriors to learn about how to advance to the legendary level. Naturally, this reward was valuable. Legendary battle pet warriors usually wouldn’t tell people, not even their students, about their experiences as they rose to the legendary level.

That was the reward of winning the Elite League. One could imagine how enticing the reward of winning the Supremacy League could be.

Su Ping didn’t care about taking any lessons from legendary battle pet warriors. Nevertheless, he was interested to find out whether there could be a more valuable reward than taking instructions from a legendary battle pet warrior.

“Benefit?”

Qin Shuhai appeared to be confused by Su Ping’s words.

It sounded like Su Ping would not participate if he could not receive any reward…

Also, Qin Shuhai was surprised that Su Ping would ask this question. Usually, title battle pet warriors would know about the significance of the Supremacy League, which Su Ping seemed to be ignorant of.

Qin Shuhai never questioned if Su Ping was a titled battle pet warrior. It was just that the information Su Ping mastered did not match his strength, which could not support Qin Shuhai’s speculation of the mysterious supporter Su Ping had. “The reward, naturally, is appealing,” Qin Shuhai adopted a more serious look as he explained, “If you can make it to the Top 10, you will earn a chance to work in the Tower.”

“The Tower?”

Su Ping didn’t understand. That was the first time he had heard about this name.

Again, Qin Shuhai found Su Ping’s reaction strange but he did not show it.

From his reply, Qin Shuhai could tell that Su Ping’s backer was unlikely to be a legendary battle pet warrior.

Such being the case, Qin Shuhai decided that he would have to adjust his view of Su Ping. He wouldn’t have to be so scared of the force behind him. Of the entire Subcontinent District, there were merely two legendary battle pet warriors and they both stayed within their own cities. If Su Ping were related to one of them, why would they send Su Ping so far away to the Longjiang Base City? “Brother Su, you should know that the Blue Planet is autonomous under the command of the Federation.

“On our planet, there are four continents. Usually, they each are administered in their own way but they are actually controlled by one central government. “Of course, the central government only manages the economy and the general operation of the Blue Planet. As such, the central government is not the strongest force on the Blue Planet, but the Tower!

“Rarely anyone is aware of the existence of the Tower which has few members. In theory, not even titled battle pet warriors would know where the Tower is. But I can say this for sure. Every member of the Tower is a legendary battle pet warrior!

“I heard that when people break through to the legendary level, they would become eligible to join the Tower.”

Qin Shuhai spoke with reverence. A force made up entirely of legendary battle pet warriors. How stunning it was. Just thinking about it had filled Qin Shuhai with dread.

“Oh, I see.”

The Tower turned out to be an organization of the best in the world.

The Tower. Interesting name.

“And by working at the Tower, you mean…?” Su Ping posed another question.

“The legendary battle pet warriors have to live their lives in the Tower, you know, and they cannot be hands-on in everything. They need some assistants or someone to run their errands,” Qin Shuhai went on, “The Top 10 winner at the Supremacy League can go and work at the Tower. Though they will only be running errands for the legendary battle pet warriors, the job is not as boring as it sounds like. When you join the Tower, you will meet legendary battle pet warriors often. If some legendary battle pet warrior likes you and gives you some instructions, you will stand to gain more cultivating for decades on your own!

“Besides, working with the legendary battle pet warriors means that you will get to see things you won’t normally see. That will be quite an eye-opener. “I heard that there was this person who worked in the Tower and got his hands on an artifact that a legendary battle pet warrior had discarded. Guess what? That titled battle pet warrior could defeat almost all the other titled battle pet warriors with that artifact. Only the truly experienced and senior titled battle pet warriors could control him. Imagine that!”

Su Ping nodded.

As the saying goes, he who touches rouge will be stained with red.

Even if it meant running errands, but to work with legendary battle pet warriors could bring about huge benefits.

That being said, he was still uninterested. He was too busy for that.

Besides, he had Joanna in his store. Her true self was much more powerful than legendary battle pet warriors. He would rather go to her for some instructions.

“Anything else?” Su Ping continued asking.

“What?”

Qin Shuhai’s explanation had filled himself and Fei Yanbo with an adrenaline surge. However, Su Ping’s question threw a wet towel over them.

He didn’t know about the Tower, so he had no legendary battle pet warrior as his supporter.

If so, shouldn’t Su Ping be excited by this chance?!

Though speechless, Qin Shuhai managed to find some words. “Of course. Working at the Tower is just one of the benefits. Some titled battle pet warriors who tend to stay alone wouldn’t want to go to the Tower because they don’t like the restrictions.

“Aside from joining the Tower, winners can get astral power stones which can generate miracles in cultivation and can even greatly help titled battle pet warriors advance.

“The winner can also have the chance to pick up what others have learned after becoming legendary battle pet warriors, and that experience is an invaluable asset!”

Su Ping raised his eyebrows.

Up until then, nothing was able to stir up his interest.

Experience in reaching the legendary level?

Every legendary battle pet warrior would have different experiences. He could ask Joanna about this or have her find some legendary warriors in the Divinity to teach him daily.

As for the astral power stones, they were consumables and he could never have too many of them. That was the only reward he was interested in.

“Is that all?” Su Ping wondered.

Qin Shuhai couldn’t find words to reply.

What more could he want?

“That is pretty much it for the Top 10 winners but if you can get a better ranking, for example, the championship, you will have awards that even legendary battle pet warriors would want. For instance, there is this thing called the Talent Stone. It can help a pet learn a talent skill and increase its combat strength!”

“Talent Stone? Talent skill?”

He had never heard of it.

“I don’t know about the details. You can ask about it some other time,” Qin Shuhai said. Because of Su Ping’s reaction, Qin Shuhai was not in the mood to go on.

IS

Su Ping nodded. He would remember to find out about Talent Stones.

He thought he knew pets well but he had never heard about pet’s talent skills.

He merely knew about the inherent skills contained in bloodlines. Every pet had its inherent skills. For the Lightning Rat, [Lightning) would be its inherent skill, its born instinct.

But this was the first time he had heard of talent skills.

That is to say, with the talent skill, the Little Skeleton’s combat strength can have another great boost? Su Ping decided to ask the system when he went back.

Qin Shuhai forced another bitter smile when he noticed that Su Ping remained unmoved. Qin Shuhai said nothing else and leaned against the chair to have a rest. This minute-long conversation was more tiring than having spoken for months.

Fei Yanbo felt his heart had been pounding throughout the entire conversation.

He had learned more in this conversation than he could ever have found via his own means.

“I heard that your store picked out a girl to be the champion?” Looking at the stage, Qin Shuhai brought it up casually.

Su Ping nodded. Qin Shuhai must have asked about this matter and he most likely also knew that the girl was his younger sister. Qin Shuhai just left it unsaid.

“At first I just wanted to join in the fun and make some money along the way. But someone had to compete with me. Therefore, I have to use the championship to defeat them,” Su Ping answered.

Qin Shuhai failed to utter a reply. This was the championship they were talking about. Not even the Qin family could claim for sure that they would get the championship. But Su Ping made it sound like the championship was already theirs.

“So it is. The ignorant Liu family.”

Qin Shuhai did not reveal the unspoken comment he had about Su Ping. As for the Liu family, Qin Shuhai never concealed his tone and he was not afraid that people might hear him.

“I was just wondering why you, Brother Su, would meddle in this nonsense. The Liu family needs to be taught a lesson. During the recent years, they have taken control over the pet store business. They have become so greedy that they would skin a flea for its hide. This is sheer effrontery!”

Su Ping replied with a smile.

For Qin Shuhai, the Elite League was just a boring game for kids.

Both the participants’ pets and the commands given by the participants appeared to be rough and childish in his eyes.

That being said, on the international stage, the competition would become more meaningful. At the base city level, there wasn’t much to see. Even winning the Top 10 was a piece of cake and the only thing which could be a little bit harder to get was the championship.

“But we do have a promising young man in the Qin family.”

All of a sudden, Qin Shuhai changed the subject. He still kept his casual gaze on the stage while he continued, “He is our future family head and is more talented than me back in the day. He is here and decided to win the championship. I think your sister and he might run into each other…”

There it is, Su Ping said to himself.

“Congratulations on having such a talented youth in your family.” Su Ping smiled.

Qin Shuhai rolled his eyes at him. “Others can call him ‘youth’, but it sounds awkward when you say it. He’s a young man but you should know that he’s a few years older than you.

“We got lucky.” Qin Shuhai heaved a sigh.

Su Ping chuckled. He didn’t banter with Qin Shuhai again. “Since this is a competition, then let’s compete fair and square. The more powerful will win the championship. I won’t have any problems regarding whoever wins.”

Qin Shuhai’s eyes glowed. This was what he had been waiting to hear.

He was afraid that on the stage, their young man defeated Su Ping’s younger sister and he would make a scene at the Qin family territory, like what he did with the Zhou family. That would be too embarrassing for the Qin family.

“Brother Su, how open-minded you are. Indeed, this is a fair game and it’s only for the kids. To set up some traps here would be a low move for anyone.”

“You said it.”

“Then, I will say congratulations to you in advance and hope you can achieve your goal. I am also glad that the Liu family will be able to taste failure this time.” Qin Shuhai laughed.

Su Ping forced a smile. You would be much happier if your future family head could win, he said to himself.

While their conversation continued, the beginning of the match was approaching.

The staging area was fully packed and the corridors had been closed. Amid everyone’s attention, the first match started!

Qin Shuhai stayed and watched the matches with Su Ping.

One thousand participants sat in the staging area, waiting for their turn for the first round.

On the stage was a piece of huge equipment; behind it stood a beast that was over 10 meters long, surrounded with mist. That was the Incubus Beast, one of the demon family.

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world? There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh? I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day. Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that. I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets… It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…
