129: A familiar feeling
After winning, Su Ze sat on the ground to rest while recalling what had just happened.
"Why did she suddenly lose the will to fight?"
As one of the parties involved, Su Ze recalled the details in his mind and suddenly seemed to understand something.
He used Shadow Stab again, carefully examining it.
"It can't be... such a coincidence? But fortunately, Shadow Stab isn't very long and is relatively fragile, so it can't pierce through the beast taming armor she's wearing."
Then Su Ze tested it with his own palm covered in beast taming armor. It indeed couldn't pierce through, but he could clearly feel it.
"Did I win because of this? It feels a bit like an unfair victory..." Su Ze said with a bitter smile.
However, this gave him an inspiration.
Although Shadow Stab can't pierce beast taming armor, it can still produce a strong sensation in vital areas.
If it's like this even for Lin Queer, what if it were other men... Su Ze felt a chill in his crotch as he looked at the sharp tip.
"A sharp weapon, an absolute sharp weapon! This is the correct way to use Shadow Stab!" Su Ze said excitedly.
Then, while resting, he began practicing repeatedly, trying to figure out how to make Shadow Stab strike precisely where he wanted, as fast as possible.
As for the prize placed on this branch, he had already taken it.
It consisted of some higher-level monster beast crystal cores, a larger quantity of quenching thought beads, and demon beast eggs.
But this time, they weren't placed separately; instead, they were all piled together.
After all, these prizes were rewards for the winner, so there was no need to set up more obstacles.
Of the other three battlefields, two were still ongoing.
Those were Qi Lin and Kuang Yi, as well as Xue Yuhe and Luo Xingyu.
As for Jiang Ren's match, it ended even faster than Su Ze's.
He seemed to have no intention of hiding his strength, directly summoning a Diamond-rank Demonic Beast, which turned out to be a very rare plant-type demonic beast!
It was also a juvenile Tree Emperor. If it were outside, it could indeed be called a towering tree, but compared to this wutong tree that supported a small world, it still seemed very small.
However, plant-type demonic beasts truly have a home-field advantage in this environment.
So, the number one seed of Black Tortoise Beast Taming University lost very quickly. After all, like Lin Queer, although he had several platinum-level tamed beasts, he didn't have a diamond rank tamed beast.
When Jiang Ren saw Su Ze looking over, he even made a throat-slitting gesture toward Su Ze.
But Su Ze ignored him, focusing instead on the other two ongoing battles.
The reason these two battles could last so long was naturally because the strengths of both sides were almost equal.
Kuang Yi and Luo Xingyu were no longer hiding their strength; they actually also had diamond rank tamed beasts.
Kuang Yi's tamed beast was a giant snake, but unlike other snake-type demonic beasts that give off a cold and sinister feeling, it appeared very noble and majestic.
On its head, there were also a pair of small protrusions, as if something was hidden beneath them.
"Is that... Dragon Transformation?"
Legend has it that snakes can gradually transform into dragons, first becoming Pythons, then boas, then flood dragons, and finally dragons.
After becoming a dragon, they can continue to evolve, turning into Horned Dragons or Yinglongs.
The strength of an Yinglong is even greater than that of many True Dragons.
But this isn't entirely accurate; most snakes will only become larger snakes in the end.
Snakes that can transform into dragons inherently possess a faint trace of dragon bloodline, and if successfully activated, they can gradually shed their original snake form and advance toward becoming dragons.
Kuang Yi's Dragon Transformation can now be called a boa.
Of course, it's still much weaker than Xiao Sheng's Biyun Flood Dragon—not in terms of strength, but in bloodline.
Although Biyun Flood Dragon is a flood dragon, she ascended directly by absorbing Divine Dragon blood.
It's just because she was originally a snake that she's only one step away from becoming a true Divine Dragon.
Naturally, Qi Lin also had his own Diamond-rank Demonic Beast to contend with Kuang Yi. It had a lion's head, deer antlers, tiger eyes, elk body, dragon scales, and ox tail, all combined into one.
It perfectly matched his name—a demonic beast with Qi Lin bloodline, but still far from a true Qi Lin.
The battle between the two was extremely thrilling, with each move executed to perfection in their back-and-forth exchanges.
However, all of this was seen by Su Ze and Jiang Ren, who were resting after their matches. No matter who won in the end, they had already gained an advantage.
"Brother Kuang's strength is ultimately a bit lacking... he's going to lose." Su Ze said, looking at Kuang Yi, who was already struggling.
Qi Lin's strength was very solid. Unlike the others, who had varying level differences with their tamed beasts—especially Su Ze, who was dozens of levels apart but still lively—
Qi Lin always maintained the same level as his tamed beast. He didn't have a second tamed beast, only this one Qi Lin.
Or perhaps only this Qi Lin managed to escape from his mouth alive; it's possible that other demonic beasts were eaten by him before they could even hatch.
On the battlefield between the two women, Luo Xingyu was subtly gaining the upper hand.
As the strongest of the younger generation cultivated by the Xue Family, the most powerful of the Four Great Families, Xue Yuhe was actually being suppressed by a country bumpkin from the remote White Tiger Beast Taming University.
Xue Yuhe's tamed beast was a giant Sky-Swallowing Toad. Although it looked a bit ugly, its strength was undeniable, with the power to swallow the sky when fully grown.
Luo Xingyu's strongest tamed beast wasn't the fifty-something-level fire-type platinum-level demonic beast that Wang Zi had mentioned; neither its level, bloodline, nor attributes matched.
Instead, just like the name of her school, it was a White Tiger full of killing intent.
It seems she really didn't go all out when sparring with Wang Zi.
Of course, it wasn't the legendary divine beast White Tiger, but it possessed its bloodline.
However, the bloodline was already quite pure. Su Ze felt it was similar to Feng Qingyi before she underwent Nirvana.
So, relying on this slight advantage in bloodline, Luo Xingyu managed to suppress Xue Yuhe, which made the latter's expression very unpleasant.
"How is this possible... How can I lose here? You forced me... I'm going to use that move!"
Not long after, just as Su Ze had predicted earlier, Kuang Yi was the first to fall, losing to Qi Lin.
However, Qi Lin wasn't in great shape either; he had already revealed all his strength.
In terms of his own Spiritual Power level, perhaps because he loved eating demon beast eggs since childhood, he was undoubtedly the highest in the entire arena.
After losing, Kuang Yi smiledcarefreely and bid farewell to Su Ze, saying, "Only you're left now, good luck!" Then he turned and voluntarily jumped off the branch.
"The last one..."
Just as Su Ze thought Luo Xingyu had completely taken the initiative and was about to win,
Suddenly, a loud "bang" erupted from the branch closest to him, causing a violent explosion.
Even the incredibly hard wutong tree branch was blown open with a huge gap.
And Su Ze was all too familiar with this kind of explosion: "Is this... a demonic beast self-destructing? Who? Who's going this far?!"
