Chapter 289 - Moonfrost Dragon

Chapter 289 Moonfrost Dragon

Su Ping replied with another silent smile. He had turned his focus to the match.

Since Su Ping did not mind, Fei Yanbo stopped lingering on this subject. He just glared at his son again.

Fei Fei would hardly see his father so afraid of someone. While he was a rebellious son, he did understand his father. His father was a man of pride. The fact that his father would treat someone younger than him with such respect implied that the young man was most likely someone with a powerful background.

Fei Fei pouted but stopped spouting careless remarks. He turned away to see the competition on the stage where Su Lingyue was fighting

He could not wait to see how good this person’s sister could be when his father was so wary of him.

On the stage.

Su Lingyue walked up the stairs. She immediately sensed something was off. All of the other four participants seemed to be staring at her.

Were they attracted by her beauty?

If this were not the Elite League, she would probably think that way. But, she had learned of the online news the day before, and considering the weird and ironic looks in those people’s eyes, she was aware that she had become “famous.”

In a bad way!

After this painful realization, she bit her teeth and slowly walked to one of the edges of the stage, in case someone would attack her from behind.

At the same time, she noticed that the others were gradually closing up on her.

“So, you are Su Lingyue, huh? I heard that a store promised you would become the champion, isn’t that right?”

“Gee, gee, if I defeat you right here, right now, I will be the champion, right?”

“I heard that there is an unspeakable relationship between her and the store owner She had to sell her body to…”

As they hurled out the remarks, they were still moving closer to Su Lingyue.

When they found out the names of all five participants going up to this stage, the other four noticed Su Lingyue’s name at once. After all, she was the most well-known one at the moment. Naturally, Su Lingyue had become the other four’s target.

Hearing those humiliating words, the nervousness in her heart was replaced with indignation. “Shut up!” She glowered at the four.

“Well, well, well. She is shouting at us. Why are you afraid of people talking about what you have done?”

“Forget it. Let us get her out and then we can find out who’s the winner among us four.”

They all agreed and summoned their pets at the same time.

Pets were the battle pet warriors’ faces. First, someone summoned a fifth-rank pet, and then another one called out a seventh-rank pet. Instantly, the former felt somewhat belittled.

As they summoned their pets, Su Lingyue told herself to be strong. Without further ado, she summoned her Phantom Flame Beast as well.

“Let’s go!”

As one of the four shouted, all of them pounced at Su Lingyue.

The Phantom Flame Beast sensed its master’s anger and the danger at hand. The Phantom Flame Beast grew in size and breathed out black flames. The first thing the Phantom Flame Beast did was to send a “Spirit Shrill” which was targeted at all of the pets; they were slowed down visibly as a result.

Whoosh!

The next second, the Phantom Flame Beast dashed toward the fifth-rank Storm Wolf that was nearest.

This Storm Wolf was huge and as it howled in terror, the Storm Wolf built up many walls made of wind. At the same time, the Storm Wolf began to use some “Blade Formation” on the Phantom Flame Beast. Surprisingly, the Phantom Flame Beast’s fur absorbed all the blades like a piece of sponge. No harm was done to the Phantom Flame Beast.

An attack from a fifth-rank pet meant nothing to the Phantom Flame Beast.

With a bang, Phantom Flame Beast reached the Storm Wolf. Using its claw, the Phantom Flame Beast inflicted many wounds on the Storm Wolf which was then shot away.

Having defeated one target, the Phantom Flame Beast quickly turned to the next one without any hesitation.

The other four turned deathly pale. They had not witnessed the initial test where Su Lingyue took part in. As such, they weren’t aware of the strength of the Phantom Flame Beast. At the moment, they were sure that the Phantom Flame Beast was as powerful as a seventh-rank pet!

“Damn it!”

“Bitch!”

The master of the Storm Wolf was chased away by the Phantom Flame Beast. To save his own life, he hopped off the stage and thus had forfeited the contest. The Phantom Flame Beast also drove another person and his pet off the stage. Soon, only two others, except for Su Lingyue, remained on the stage.

“Your sister’s Phantom Flame Beast is good, more than good.” Fei Yanbo could not help but exclaim.

Fei Fei was also amazed by the Phantom Flame Beast. With such a pet, of all the participants of the base city, Su Lingyue was among the outstanding ones. Her making it to the Top 1000 should be a piece of cake for her.

Su Ping did not give a reply. He concentrated his entire mind on the game.

The Phantom Flame Beast ran toward the other two enemies.

However, those two seemed to be cooperating well. They stepped further away from each other and then one of them suddenly took a turn and ran toward Su Lingyue.

The Phantom Flame Beast noticed that. It had to stop its chase and rush back to its master.

“I didn’t think that someone would force me to take my ace card out at the first round of the challenge contest. Now, go to hell!”

The young man who was running toward Su Lingyue had a certain cruelness in his eyes. He should be about 26 or 27 years old, about to reach the upper age limit of the Elite League. He was using a skill called the middle-level Butterfly Move which explorers could trade for with their merit points.

The young man crossed over a dozen meters in the split of a second.

As he approached Su Lingyue, he opened his hand that he had clenched in a fist. From the dark space hopped out something that was merely 10 centimeters tall, like a huge wasp. The pet dashed away in a blue streak and reached a supersonic speed at once.

Bang!

Su Lingyue didn’t have enough time to escape. She merely felt a shock on her neck when she found herself flying backward. Soon, she noticed that she had bumped into something soft. It was the Phantom Flame Beast that caught her. Behind the Phantom Flame Beast was the edge of the stage. One more step and she would have been thrown off!

Su Lingyue looked pale, shivering in fear. She knew what defeat meant. She would lose all her reputation. To make it worse, Su Ping’s store would be beyond redemption and even their entire family would face life-threatening risks.

She could not fall!

She bit her lips to force herself to concentrate. She looked around and could faintly see a dark blur whooshing here and there on the stage. And yet, she could not see clearly what that was. Her sight was not good enough.

A pet with high speed…

She knew that as long as the pet was there, the Phantom Flame Beast would have to stay close to protect her. Once the Phantom Flame Beast moved away from her, she would be thrown off the stage.

But, if the Phantom Flame Beast stayed with her all the time, she would never be able to fight back.

She also didn’t realize that she had to put her ace card on the table during the first round of the challenge contest.

She wanted to hide her best move in case someone would devise up a strategy to target the Moonfrost Dragon. However, she had no other choice because she was slowing the Phantom Flame Beast down.

If only I were a tad stronger… She felt sorry for herself. She made up her mind and called out her current most powerful pet. “A barrier? What?”

The young man could not believe that he had failed to kill Su Lingyue. He could tell that she was wearing an advanced barrier or else she wouldn’t’ have survived the strike from the Supersonic Wasp.

The Supersonic Wasp was a seventh-rank pet.

As Su Lingyue was going to summon another pet, the young man stayed highly alerted. The cold air was exuding out from the space. Then, a dragon head with both golden and silver scales slowly reached out and then the rest of its body came out!

The dragon was seven to eight meters tall, a height that should be found in a grown-up dragon.

The dragon was vigorous and graceful. This was a female dragon.

Dragon?!

The young man was astounded.

Dragons could defeat all the other pets of the same rank. He found this dragon familiar, kind of like the rare Moonfrost Dragon but not so much because Moonfrost Dragons were silver all around, like a piece of frost. However, this dragon’s scales varied in color, which diminished its beauty.

“Charge!”

Su Lingyue instructed the dragon. She wasn’t going to give the two opponents any time to react.

The previous strike had been aimed at her neck. If it weren’t for the water barrier, she would have died on the spot, which was more serious than flying off from the stage!

That young man was heartless and she would pay in kind. She was more eager to kill someone than ever before.

The bloody view from the previous day flashed by her mind. More or less, what happened yesterday had left a mark on her.

Feeling the anger from its master, even the usually quiet Moonfrost Dragon was full of wrath. Instantly, the Moonfrost Dragon began to roar.
