Astral Pet Store

Chapter 311 No. 18

“Another freak!” some workers mumbled.

The others stared at the Pyro Electric Tiger frozen on the spot with a bitter smile. The battle had ended before it even began. According to the sensor on the Pyro Electric Tiger, the strength of the freezing capacity... had reached the level of 8.6!

What did it mean?

It implied that the dragon’s breath could freeze beasts at the intermediate position of the eighth rank!

For all the participants, if the seventh-rank was the lower limit for passing into the next round, then the eighth-rank would be considered the standard for the true elites!

After all, the participants of the Elite League could not be higher than the sixth rank. It was hard for someone at the sixth rank to exhibit power equal to the eighth rank. Usually, only those from prominent households with wealth and resources and the help of secret treasures -or those who could grow up while going under special training-could have done this!

“You have passed the test!” said the man wearing the black suit and the top hat to Su Lingyue, who was still standing in a daze. He was a bit speechless to find this girl so confused.

“Oh....”

Finally, Su Lingyue knew what she should do. She cast a glance at the frozen Pyro Electric Tiger, called back the Moonfrost Dragon to her contract space and left the Phantom Flame Beast on her shoulder. She stepped out from the corridor.

“Well, can I make it to Top 1000? If not, I can give it another go...” Su Lingyue whispered her question to that man with the top hat.

She could tell that she did well from those workers’ reactions. At the same time, she was well aware of the responsibility she had to carry. She could not afford to make any mistake!

The man in the top hat twitched his mouth. If it weren’t for the serious and careful look on the girl’s face, he would have thought that this pretty and delicate girl was being overly pretentious.

“If your goal is to enter the Top 1000, then you have done more than enough.”

The man in the top hat showed Su Ping to the device with the ranking display. He told another worker to show Su Lingyue her current ranking.

No. 18.

That was a good result. Even though many more were waiting to take the test, it was still unlikely that she would fall out of the Top 1000.

Su Lingyue didn’t expect that she would do so well. While happy, she became worried. There were 17 people ranked ahead of her and all of them were able to defeat that Pyro Electric Tiger with a single move. Was that so?

Su Lingyue felt her senses were turning numb.

Relying on herself alone, she wouldn’t even be able to defend herself against this Pyro Electric Tiger. Without the Moonfrost Dragon Su Ping had given her, she could have given up on the game directly. To compete against all those freaks and geniuses, she would have been practically courting death.

Having seen her score, Su Lingyue left through another corridor as advised by the workers.

“Sir, is that the girl claiming to be the next champion?”

“That is the one.”

“She sure is something. I believe this year’s final is going to be thrilling.”

“I don’t know. She’s not nearly as good as the one from the Qin Family yet.”

“You’re right.” After Su Lingyue left, several workers began to discuss. They recognized Su Lingyue the moment she arrived. Naturally, she had caught the attention of many because of that exaggerated publicity stunt, and the powerful dragon she used at the branch venue.

“Done.”

Su Lingyue saw Su Ping waiting not far away. She hurried to him.

Su Ping sized her up and down. “Are you hurt anywhere? Any dirty tricks?”

“No.” Su Lingyue shook her head and told him about the test.

Su Ping nodded after she finished her explanation. He understood that her test finished within an instant. She wouldn’t have been able to tell even if some dirty tricks were at play.

“The Liu Family knew to behave.” Su Ping shook his head. Without further hesitation, he took her to the venue inside.

Ninety percent of the spectator seats had been filled up. The entire place was bustling with activity. From the many entrances, more and more people were swarming in. This place was much larger than the branch venue and the spectator’s seats were divided into 16 areas.

Each area could house tens of thousands of people. For the ordinary people that sat at the back—the highest seats of the venue—they would have to use telescopes to see the matches. Otherwise, all they would be able to see would be blurs, other than the exceptionally large pets.

Su Ping and Su Lingyue went to the area nearest to the stage. She had her credential with her.

That was the only one waiting area because merely one thousand would be participating in the matches. That section was more than enough.

Other areas close to the stage were left for expensive VIP seats. Those who sat there were either wealthy or from the major families.

At the moment, six to seven hundred had found their seats in the participant’s seating area. Su Ping could see many familiar faces. Most of them were his customers and he saw two students from the Berserking Blade Academy, Luo Fengtian and Yu Weihan. Su Ping told Su Lingyue to find a seat while he went to the area for family members. Each participant was allowed to bring two family members.

“Mr. Su, my teacher.”

Someone rushed over to Su Ping and then stood at attention in front of Su Ping.

Su Ping recognized that it was Xu Kuang whom he had tutored twice.

“I told you that I’m not your teacher.” “One day a teacher, always...”

“Stop right there. Go back and get prepared.” Su Ping was not in the mood to chit chat with him. He would never acknowledge that he was Xu Kuang’s teacher. You could call me whatever else you like!

“Yes, sir!” Xu Kuang cupped his fists and said with respect.

Su Ping rolled his eyes at him. Standing next to them, Su Lingyue was baffled. That man was interesting. When did Su Ping take on students? Where did he come from? How come she had never seen him before?

The three of them were attracting more and more attention. Su Ping didn’t waste more time; he wished them good luck and went to the area for family members.

“You’re my teacher’s younger sister?”

After Su Ping left, Xu Kuang turned around and stared at Su Lingyue with ardent excitement.

Clearly enough, he wasn’t as silly as he appeared to be. He had done his homework.

Su Lingyue checked this man up and down. “I am Su Lingyue.” She nodded.

“I know you. You are the top student in the first grade at the Phoenix Peak Academy, right? No wonder you are my teacher’s younger sister. You’re a gifted girl!” Xu Kuang gave her a thumbs-up.

Su Lingyue was amused by this compliment. “Which academy are you from?” she asked.

“Ares Academy,” Xu Kuang answered casually. “Ares Academy?” Su Lingyue could not believe it. The guy that claimed to be Su Ping’s student was from the Ares Academy?!

“The Ares Academy is hard to get in. I didn’t get high enough scores to be enrolled. Good for you,” Su Lingyue said. She was glad that Xu Kuang praised her but she knew her limits well. Besides, since Xu Kuang could make it to the Top 1000, it implied that he had to be an outstanding student.

“It’s not that big of a deal... Anyways, compared to my teacher, I am nothing.”

Halfway through his sentence, Xu Kuang realized that his words sounded arrogant. He changed his reply with an embarrassing smile right away.
