Chapter 503 More Beast Kings and Reinforcements!

“Qin…”

Xie Jinshui was well-informed; he was able to tell right away that Qin Duhuang would go through Heaven’s Test! Qin Duhuang was going to make the breakthrough, wasn’t he? Right in the middle of the war?! If he succeeded, he would become a legendary battle pet warrior!

After the initial stage of astonishment, the Qin family’s titled battle pet warriors were overjoyed. The Qin family was going to have a legendary battle pet warrior! Although many of their people had died, including their former family head Qin Feiyu, seeing Qin Duhuang making a breakthrough still left many people in tears. Finally, the Qin family was going to have a legendary battle pet warrior! Boom~~! Dark clouds gathered and thunder clapped. It seemed that the Winged Serpent was remembering something horrible. Hissing, the Winged Serpent turned around and fled instead of going near Qin Duhuang. Soon after, the Winged Serpent had fled the dark clouds. Standing underneath the dark clouds were Qin Duhuang and the other Qin family titled battle pet warriors. Qin Duhuang was unhappy as he saw that Winged Serpent flee. However, he didn’t go after it. He could tell that the dark clouds had locked in on him. The unspeaking feeling in his mind was telling him how to go through Heaven’s Test.

“You need to get out of here!” Qin Duhuang shouted to people around him. The Qin family titled battle pet warriors came back to their senses. They all hurried to move away, afraid that their presence would interfere with Qin Duhuang. They had heard about some secrets about Heaven’s Test.

Finally, the Qin family was going to have a legendary battle pet warrior!

If they became the reason Qin Duhuang failed the test, they would spend the rest of their lives in misery.

As the Qin family’s titled battle pet warriors left the area, the dark clouds grew faster and faster, soon reaching several thousand meters in diameter.

Lightning flashed in the dark clouds. The heavy pressure made Qin Duhuang feel that he was forced to face heaven and earth all in his lonesome. This was Heaven’s Test. He looked into the sky. Roar!!

A beast shouted in the distance.

Qin Duhuang looked around. The Storm Scorpion was hurrying his way. Behind it, that mammoth behemoth had fallen to the ground, motionless.

Did the Storm Scorpion win? Qin Duhuang was happy to see only a few wounds on the Storm Scorpion. He didn’t know that the beast king Su Ping had sold him was so formidable. The Storm Scorpion had not only stalled the mammoth but actually killed it. “Perfect timing. Come and join me!” Qin Duhuang shouted. He had no idea if he would survive through the test. He had never prepared for it because he never thought he would have a chance in this lifetime. Boom-!

The dark clouds were ready. The diameter had grown to about five thousand meters. A swirl appeared in the middle of the dark clouds. A thick bolt of lightning was ready to strike.

Qin Duhuang shouted as he mobilized his astral powers. He borrowed some energy from the Storm Scorpion via energy synchronization. He once again wielded his sword.

With a boom, the lightning bolt cracked, surrounding Qin Duhuang with countless electric sparks. The electricity shocked Qin Duhuang numb. He waved his sword again, seeing that the second bolt of lightning was coming. Boom! Boom! The third bolt of lightning followed closely after the second was done. Roar!!

The Storm Scorpion jumped up toward the bolt of lightning. The energy from the Storm Scorpion turned into a storm that dispersed the lightning The lightning disappeared, revealing Qin Duhuang. He was on the back of the Storm Scorpion down on one knee. His hair was a mess and he had to support himself with the sword in his hand.

The lightning bolts continued to fall. “Sir…”

The Qin family titled battle pet warriors watched nervously.

If Qin Duhuang failed, his chance to become a legendary battle pet warrior would be gone! More and more bolts of lightning were smashing down. Qin Duhuang felt he was about to explode; he was unable to gather more strength. He struggled to look into the sky, only to see more bolts of lightning coming down.

Roar!!

A crimson figure jumped up to the sky. It was the Fierce Fire Ape. It threw itself at the lightning bolt and then was smashed down on the ground.

Another bolt of lightning was about to fall. This time, it was the dragon that stepped to block it.

Just like the Fierce Fire Ape, the dragon bellowed as it shouldered the bolt of lightning for Qin Duhuang. The titled battle pet warriors that were busy fighting could not help but take a look. Witnessing a person taking Heaven’s Test would later inspire them. Qin Duhuang was emotional after seeing that the dragon and the Fierce Fire Ape were helping him. He summoned all of his strength and shouted at the sky. Boom!!

The lightning bolt came crashing down on him. Qin Duhuang and the Storm Scorpion he was standing on welcomed the lightning strike together. The glaring light lit up both sky and ground. As the last lightning bolt fell, Qin Duhuang and the Storm Scorpion collapsed on the ground. There were several burn marks on the Storm Scorpion’s shell. Even though it was a beast king, Heaven’s Test was too much for it. The dark clouds dispersed. Finally, it was over. Right then, a strand of force poured down from the dark clouds and entered Qin Duhuang before he was able to react. That was a force he had never experienced before; it seeped into all the corners of his body and his astral powers seethed. Qin Duhuang looked at himself. The burns on his skin were healing quickly. In the meantime, the force entering him was vast and majestic. An extraordinary vibe was revealed from him. Legendary rank! Qin Duhuang himself became surprised. Was this the strength of a legendary battle pet warrior?

Majestic as the sea, vast, endless! He felt he could even control the void!

Stunning! That was what he had been dreaming of!

“Ah!!”

Qin Duhuang could not help but cry out. He had never been so liberated. He was able to grab all the energy stored in heaven and earth at will.

After calming down, the first thing he did was to dart a glance at the Winged Serpent in the distance. Determined, Qin Duhuang directed the Storm Scorpion toward the place where the Winged Serpent was. The wild beast king was less afraid since the test had ended. It charged forth after seeing Qin Duhuang and the Storm Scorpion approaching Bang!

The Storm Scorpion generated two hurricanes in the air with its claws. At its command, the two hurricanes lashed at the Winged Serpent. Qin Duhuang was full of killing intent. He shared his astral powers with the Storm Scorpion he was riding.

Roar!

The Storm Scorpion grew more powerful than ever. It sped up until it became a blur to smash into the Winged Serpent. The pet grabbed the winged beast with its claws and yanked it down from the sky. The Winged Serpent wiggled and wrapped itself around the Storm Scorpion. As he stood on the outer wall, Xie Jinshui was over the moon after seeing Qin Duhuang succeed. He was even happier to see that Qin Duhuang’s battle pet was clearly gaining the upper hand. Relieved, Xie Jinshui commanded others to try their best to stall the Cyan Flame Dragon. The titled battle pet warriors from other base cities were stunned and thrilled to have seen the Raging Spirit reach the legendary rank today. They tried even harder. As soon as Qin Duhuang finished that Winged Serpent, he would be able to join them and to finish the Cyan Flame Dragon together! The east side was secure! “We have a legendary battle pet warrior. Charge!!” “Guys, let’s kill those bastards!” The warriors’ morals and spirits were rising; they summoned more battle pets and fought with all their might. The wild beasts that had charged into the stone spikes were forced to stop. Countless dead bodies were lying on the ground, including those of wild beasts, humans as well as battle pets. While the wild beasts were suffering from great casualties, a human warrior died every second!

Wild beasts and battle pets were nothing different, except that the former was wild and the latter domesticated, having also befriended humans. In that battle, corpses piled together and blood flowed in a stream. Xie Jinshui was even calmer by then. He was able to see in the distance how Qin Duhuang and the Storm Scorpion had gained complete control over the Winged Serpent which was riddled with wounds. Come on, Qin! Xie Jinshui prayed. While everything seemed to have been stabilized, people heard some shouts all of a sudden. Following that, behind the wild beasts, the ground cracked; a gigantic creature emerged from that fissure, one that looked like a centipede. As soon as the huge centipede appeared, it swooped down on two titled battle pet warriors which soon cried out in pain; that was the only thing that could ever come out of their mouths. Their battle pets stopped fighting and stood among the wild beasts, confused. That was the outcome when battle pets lost their bond with their masters.

Everyone on the battlefield was scared and pale. Xie Jinshui could hardly believe that. Beast kings again? There were two of them!!

Were all five beast kings attacking the east side?

It was unlikely!

Were they never able to detect all the beast kings? Xie Jinshui was trembling, in anger and fear. The titled battle pet warriors were stunned into stillness.

They were having a hard time as it was, just to stall one Cyan Flame Dragon. How come there were two more? How should they continue? Many people had given up hope. The Qins’ titled warriors who had returned to help were in despair. Qin Duhuang had broken through to the legendary rank but he could not stop so many beast kings!

How could all five beast kings be there at the same time? They had heard that the north side also had beast kings!

Qin Duhuang, who was still fighting that Winged Serpent, was alerted by the two shouts. Startled, he took a look and what he saw threw him into endless despair.

He could not help but shout, “That is not possible…”

On the outer wall, after being dazed for a moment, Xie Jinshui came back to his senses. He took out his phone and called his contacts on the other sides.

If the other sides didn’t have to deal with beast kings, he could mobilize some people to have them help out! “General Lin, how is the north side?” “Sir, we have… three beast kings here!”

Clap.

The phone was dropped. Xie Jinshui’s head was blank. Three beast kings on the north side? Five were here. That would make the total number of beast kings… eight! He had not even checked with the south and west side yet! “Why? Why are there so many beast kings?” Xie Jinshui was having a mental breakdown. Eight beast kings and the Otherworld Heavenly King would easily topple a Class A base city! Why would so many beast kings gather to attack the Longjiang Base City?!

He could not understand!

The Longjiang Base City was just an ordinary tier-two base city! Why were so many beast kings here?

Roar!

Roar!!

Xie Jinshui could not take it. As the two beast kings joined in, the wild beasts that had slowed down launched another round of vicious attacks.

The two beast kings cleared up the path like two tanks.

The titled battle pet warriors and their battle pets at the ninth rank were unable to stop the two beasts at all. The volunteering titled warriors from other base cities didn’t know each other well; they couldn’t have built a formation or cooperated as the Qin family did. They had to face the beast kings alone. Soon, some titled battle pet warriors were slaughtered by the beast kings! The two beast kings charged forth. The titled battle pet warriors had to retreat as they fought. There was nothing they could do! In the distance, Qin Duhuang was losing patience. He wanted to go and help but the Winged Serpent had not died yet, even though it was overwhelmed. After all, it was a beast king, a creature that would not die so easily. It would take him a long time to finish it. Boom~~!

While everyone was at a loss, the ground began to shake.

Even the outer wall was shaking! To their dismay, people saw another massive thing running toward them from inside the base city. The energy readings of that thing told people that it was another beast king!

“Have the beast kings… breached the city?”

That was what many were thinking. However, the next second, that behemoth jumped up to the sky and a stone column grew under its feet. The beast king flew over the outer wall and joined the battle outside. “…Mr. Su?”

Xie Jinshui recognized that beast king.

It was Su Ping’s ride!

The Qin family and the government’s titled battle pet warriors recognized the beast king as well. Was Su Ping going to help them? They looked for Su Ping but they didn’t see

him.

Beep.

Xie Jinshui’s phone was ringing on the ground. He picked it up in a hurry. The call was from Su Ping “Sir, I heard that there are three beast kings in the east. I’m afraid that is too much for you so I sent over my ride. Has it arrived?” Su Ping sounded worried. Xie Jinshui was brought to tears. It turned out that Su Ping had already sent over his battle pet when three beast kings had appeared on the east side. Su Ping’s battle pet just didn’t get there that quickly. Su Ping probably had not been told that there were five, not three beast kings on the east side!

But Xie Jinshui didn’t tell him that. He took a deep breath and said, “Mr. Su, thank you. Your battle pet has just arrived. Qin just broke through to the legendary rank. I think we may be able to save the east side!” “… Legendary rank?” While he sat in the Pixie Pet Store, Su Ping could hardly believe what he had just heard. Qin Duhuang made the breakthrough. What a surprise. Also, if he did, that would mean that he would be able to control a battle pet at the Void State!

Su Ping was overjoyed. He had a beast king at the Void State!

But he couldn’t transport that beast king to the outer wall, so Qin Duhuang would have to go to his store and buy it. But at the moment, Su Ping didn’t think Qin Duhuang would have any time. He wondered if the wild beasts would stop for a while; that would give Qin Duhuang a chance to go to the store and buy the battle pet.

“When things stabilize over there and Mr. Qin has time, tell him to come to my store. I will give him another beast king,” Su Ping said.

Xie Jinshui was stunned. Another beast king?

Su Ping had other beast kings?

Even though he was shocked, Xie Jinshui said yes on behalf of Qin Duhuang at once. He hung up the phone. The Swamp War Crocodile had jumped outside of the wall. It stomped on the wild beasts and charged toward the two beast kings.

The three beast kings broke into a big fight. The ground trembled. The wind howled. The sky crackled!

The three beast kings were using all sorts of legendary skills against each other. The destruction was happening at such a scale that no other wild beasts dared to get close. The space would be cleared wherever the three beast kings moved to fight. Qin Duhuang was relieved to see the Swamp War Crocodile. To his amazement, he realized that while fighting against two, the Swamp War Crocodile was gaining upper hand!

Beast kings were not all alike. Qin Duhuang had not been able to tell before that day.

But that beast king was vastly more powerful than his Storm Scorpion!

That Swamp War Crocodile was too awesome!

It was Su Ping’s ride!

The titled battle pet warriors from other base cities were frightened by the crocodile and only then did they realize the beast was on their side.

The local battle pet warriors had heard things about the crocodile and they could have a faint idea about the master of the crocodile. Everyone was thinking that the Longjiang Base City’s demise was just around the corner. However, at this critical time, it turned out that other strong forces were hiding in the base city!

Whose battle pet was that?

It was clear that it didn’t belong to Qin Duhuang, who had just reached the legendary rank. Otherwise, he would have summoned it right away. Could there be another legendary battle pet warrior in the Longjiang Base City?

Once again, some battle pet warriors who had been thinking about retreating because of the desperate situation were feeling hopeful again. Charge! Charge!!

Everyone was shouting. The battle pet warriors’ morale was rising, thanks to the sight of the Swamp War Crocodile overwhelming two beast kings. Emboldened by this, all the titled battle pet warriors charged at the wild beasts and began a killing spree.

At the store inside the base city. Su Ping was sitting in the store with Tang Ruyan, Zhong Lingtong, and a Zhong family elder.

Of the three Zhong family elders that had visited the base city, two had gone to help while another stayed behind in the store. To be exact, he was just there for Zhong Lingtong. If and when the Longjiang Base City was breached, he would take Zhong Lingtong away with him at once.

Sitting with them were some government operatives and some devices. The operatives would inform Su Ping as soon as they detected the presence of the Otherworld Heavenly King. Su Ping was able to learn about the situation outside thanks to them. He ordered the Swamp War Crocodile to help as soon as three beast kings appeared on the east side. Just after he finished the call with Xie Jinshui, the operatives told him that there were two more beast kings on the east side! “Three at the north and five at the east, two at the west and one at the south!” Su Ping’s face became clouded. The temperature in the store began to freeze.

Silence prevailed.

The operatives wore grave expressions.

The Zhong family elder was so afraid that he was barely able to breathe.

Up until that moment, there were eleven beast kings in total! However, the Otherworld Heavenly King had yet to make an appearance! The number of beast kings had more than doubled!

There were eleven beast kings! Even a top-level base city would have to think about evacuating and relocating its residents in such a situation. A base city would need several legendary battle pet warriors to survive such a disaster!

Also, the legendary battle pet warriors would have to be at a senior level, not new ones like Qin Duhuang! After all, the new legendary battle pet warriors lacked experience and beast kings as their battle pets. But some senior legendary battle pet warriors would only have beast kings as battle pets! One legendary battle pet warrior was able to sign contracts with ten pets!

A senior legendary battle pet warrior could have 10 beast kings as battle pets and together they would be able to survive in such a situation!

“On the east side, we have Qin Duhuang, the Storm Scorpion and the Swamp War Crocodile; they can count as three legendary battle pet warriors. The Swamp War Crocodile should be able to stabilize things soon. The east side is ok…”

Su Ping took a deep breath. He opened a swirl. The Dark Dragon Hound jumped out. While hesitating, Su Ping made up his mind eventually. “Go to the north side and help the Ye family.”

The Dark Dragon Hound understood the order. It woofed, as a way of saying yes. Su Ping patted its head and told it to leave right away. He had to. The Ye family would be unable to deal with three beast kings alone! The Ye family had one beast king but it was merely at the Ocean State; not quite powerful. The best that beast king could do was to stop one beast king. The remaining two beast kings could cripple the defense of the north side. Su Ping didn’t send out the Inferno Dragon because he was worried.

He was worried that without him there, his battle pets would meet mishaps.

He wasn’t worried about the Swamp War Crocodile.

But the Inferno Dragon had just reached the beast king level. He was afraid that the Inferno Dragon could be killed by other beast kings without him on the site.

He was less afraid about the Dark Dragon Hound which was an expert in running away and in using defensive skills. It might not be able to kill the beast kings but it would protect itself well!

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…
