“Zhang Xiaoche, you have to win!”

Seeing the distance between Zhang Che and the beastmaster representative from the Zhen family getting closer and closer, and the clash imminent, Huang Tielan, who took an absence of leave to come spectate, clenched her fists, her face tightening.

Although Zhang Che had told her not to worry repeatedly and that he would be the one having the last laugh, Huang Tielan couldn’t help but worry when she saw the similarly powerful subdued beasts of the Zhen family’s beastmaster.

Huang Juyun seemed to have sensed his daughter’s anxiety. He turned his head towards her and patted her head, consoling her with a smile, “Relax a little, Lanlan. You have to believe in that kid. He will do it!”

Honestly, at this moment, even Huang Juyun himself didn’t know how this battle would end.

The Zhen family were obviously no fools. After learning of the location of the duel, naturally they realized Zhang Che would have an earth-attributed epic-quality subdued beast on him, and would use it at the crucial moment as an ambush.

So, they had made sufficient preparations. Not only did they prepare a legend-quality armor, they also equipped their representative with a legend-quality aerial mount to fly high up in the air, avoiding any sneak attacks from underground.

“Mhm, daddy, I believe Zhang Xiaoche will win for sure!” Huang Tielan nodded heavily. She raised her binoculars, looking at the arena below.

It was best for the father-daughter duo, who were confident in Zhang Che’s strength. Zheng Hongru’s group, on the other hand, was ghostly pale. They were very worried about whether Zhang Che could successfully emerge victorious in the upcoming battle.

They really wanted to help this brother who had once helped them immensely. However, in this mid-tier beastmaster duel, which easily touched upon the use of epic-quality subdued beasts, what could they possibly do?

-We have to work hard, and hopefully we can be of help to Brother Che in the future!- The four of them exchanged glances, noticing the determination in each other’s eyes.

A thousand meters was neither close nor far. The epic-quality subdued beasts from both sides in the arena soon clashed.

To be more accurate, it was the False Domains of the epic-quality subdued beasts that clashed, giving off a feeling that heaven and earth were flipped around.

At Zhen Liu’s command, the subdued beast that engaged the Winged Dragon Wind God was a rare wood-attributed subdued beast. In its False Domain, vines sprouted out of nowhere in the sandy ground, forming a green defensive wall, and the Winged Dragon Wind God’s Tempest Field False Domain was unable to display any might.

The rampaging wind elements, together with the sand and rocks it swept up, slammed into the green wall, like a violent wave crashing onto the reefs, shattering in an instant.

On the other side, facing the fast-moving Jade-Shelled Mystic Tortoise, the red light of the False Domain of Zhen Liu’s other epic-quality subdued beast swirled up into the sky. In that red light, faint scarlet flames could be seen, burning the sandy ground so hot that the sand started melting.

Zhang Che furrowed his brow. It seemed like the Zhen family had made very thorough preparations. They actually went through the trouble and found two epic-quality subdued beasts whose attributes countered his own. They truly were very influential. As expected of a first-rate large clan of Bei Du!

But, so what? He wasn’t relying on those two subdued beasts to win him the fight to begin with!

“Less than five hundred meters now!” Zhang Che judged the distance between him and Zhen Liu. His eyes narrowed. The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon under him suddenly dove to the ground, stirring up the sand.

Zhen Liu sat on his aerial beast, hovering several meters in the air, showing a look of disdain in his eyes.

“Kid, we’ve already seen through your tricks. Are you still trying to use them and humiliate yourself?” He didn’t believe Zhang Che could do anything against him now that he was high up in the sky.

In the next moment, however, Zhen Liu’s eyes went wide.

On the back of the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon who have dove to the ground, a rainbow ray shot out from Zhang Che’s brow and materialized into a massive stone giant, abruptly joining the Winged Dragon Wind God’s battle.

A huge rock spear shining with a fascinating light suddenly appeared in its hand, and the giant directly hurled it at the epic-quality subdued beast that was fighting against the Winged Dragon Wind God at lightning speed.

The moment the Earthen Rock Demon appeared, its strongest attack skill was used, and it wasn’t even targeting Zhen Liu himself, surprising him.

Immediately, Zhen Liu creased his brow, his heart tightening.

The wood-attributed subdued beast was caught unprepared. The False Domain’s green wall was directly punched through by the Lightning Rock Spear. The rock spear’s tremendous momentum wasn’t reduced in the slightest, and directly struck the wood-attributed beast beyond, severely injuring it.

“This is you looking to die, don’t blame me for this!”

Naturally Zhen Liu didn’t dare to lose an epic-quality subdued beast carelessly. He waved his hand in a hurry, recalling the heavily injured subdued beast.

—

At the same time, the sound of people sucking in their breaths could be heard from the surrounding spectators. Some people cheered, and some cursed out angrily.

“Amazing! An epic-quality subdued beast was taken care of just like that! Looks like I placed my bet correctly, hahaha...”

“Is that freaking guy from the Zhen family stupid? Didn’t he know to guard against his opponent? Now one of his epic-quality beast is incapacitated. I’ll see what you’re going to do now, idiot!”

—

Back in the ring, Zhang Che didn’t care what the others were thinking. He directed the Earthen Rock Demon to use its other skill. Immediately, countless sharp earth spikes rose from the ground, forcing the fire-attributed subdued beast hovering in the air to fly higher.

Meanwhile, the Winged Dragon Wind God also released its skill. A devastating tornado was born out of nowhere, sweeping towards that fire beast.

At the same time, the Jade-Shelled Mystic Tortoise also activated its Water Screen Splendor skill. A massive screen of water rose up, attacking the fire-attributed subdued beast.

Seeing this, the spectators were in an uproar. None of them had expected that Zhang Che’s sudden usage of his reserve epic-quality subdued beast would immediately tip the scales of the battle so heavily. It seemed like Zhen Liu’s defeat was guaranteed, with no way of retaliating.

The crowd started finding it odd. It was impossible that the Zhen family didn’t have a reserve beast. Why didn’t Zhen Liu use it?

At this crucial moment, once his fire-attributed subdued beast was also heavily injured, it would become impossible for him to have any chance of victory in this life or death match.

“Daddy, Zhang Xiaoche is going to win!”

Seeing Zhang Che gaining the upper hand instantly, Huang Tielan couldn’t help but feel ecstatic. Her voice carried a tone of happiness.

Huang Juyun, however, furrowed his brow, wondering if Zhang Che revealing his trump card so early was a little too hasty of him.

His opponent was someone of the Zhen family. Heavens knew what kind of tricks they had prepared!

As the saying went, an expert observes the tricks, while the amateur only looks at the spectacle. In this arena deathmatch that everyone was paying attention to, it was apparent which side the crowd belonged to.

Although most people were of the opinion that Zhang Che’s victory was assured, those who truly understood the situation knew that Zhang Che had acted a little recklessly.

Once Zhen Liu showed his hand, with Zhang Che’s three epic-quality subdued beasts exposed, and their skills used, how was he going to defend?

Although it seemed like Zhang Che was steamrolling Zhen Liu, many of them weren’t optimistic with how the battle was going to develop.

This was like two armies clashing, where one side had suddenly sent out all its reserve army. Although it seemed like they were heavily pressuring the other army, the enemy’s reserve was still hidden. As long as they weren’t instantly defeated, it was obvious which side held the upper hand afterwards.

Zhen Liu thought so, too. Killing intent flashed across his eyes. He was no longer interested in seeing Zhang Che’s performance. He felt that it was time to end this game of cat and mouse!

Unbeknownst to Zhen Liu, Zhang Che was thinking the exact same thing.

No, Zhang Che thought that way from the very beginning. That was why he used his “killer move” from the start unhesitatingly, forcing Zhen Liu’s epic-quality subdued beasts back.

Exactly who was calculating who? It was impossible to know...

In the queer, unknown lands...

Black doors suddenly appeared one after another above the strange pattern. Those black doors gradually materialized out of nothing, and started absorbing the overflowing energy at the platform madly.

In the outer circle, crazed looks showed in the eyes of every one of those strange creatures with shocking auras. They spat out mouthfuls of different-colored blood essences at the same time, all of which turned into an endless source of energy, coursing towards the black doors along the network of threads.

Gradually, the black doors fully materialized, like black metallic portals standing in the air.

Creak..! A heavy, yet low and unhurried noise rang out. The largest black door in the center suddenly split open a tiny gap. Afterwards, it firmly opened in both directions, revealing a mysterious spatial tunnel behind.

A wave of feverish auras suddenly erupted from the huge army spread across the lands and skies. The creatures all looked towards the spatial tunnel behind the largest black door at the same time. They could no longer wait!

—

At the same time, in various uninhabited locations on Mercury, the strange patterns formed from the blood mist gradually started to communicate with the far off unknown lands. They were like coordinates, guiding the massive energy from the unknown lands to gush over from an endless distance.

Gradually, waves of invisible forces crossed the endless reaches to where the blood mist patterns were waiting.

Although those massive forces weren’t able to push through the barrier of space immediately, they were booming and fluttering like waves on the sea, wave after wave crashing against and assaulting the spatial barrier non-stop.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the battering forces grew even stronger, and the spatial barrier on this side of the world was no longer able to withstand it. In the end, cracks invisible to the naked eye appeared at the areas with the blood mist patterns!
