Chapter 979: A Suspenseless Victory!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhan Qing Feng felt a ball of fire rise through his chest as he cursed, wondering why these two Cat-bodied Tigers which were previously both fierce and ready to fight each other had suddenly become like this. Today is simply too strange... But if you don’t go up there, where would I put my face? And shall I win?
And so Young Master Zhan growled with rage and grabbed the Cat-bodied Tiger, throwing it into the arena. At the same time, he commanded fiercely. “Bite it to death for me! Claw it to death!”
If the Cat-bodied Tiger could understand his words, it would likely wail loudly on the spot. Granddaddy ah, please don’t mess around, are you sure you’re not joking?
With a heavy pu sound, the Cat-bodied Tiger finally landed on the ground. The moment it raised its head, it saw the king of the Cat-bodied Tigers—Little Purple! A pair of icy cold eyes stared emotionlessly at it.
Its mind revolving quickly, this Cat-bodied Tiger hurriedly bowed lowly and with a weak meow, it raised its paws and gestured frantically in the air, meowing anxiously...
At this time, all the other Cat-bodied Tigers in the cages were lying down comfortably and sneering as they watched the show. All of them looked at this fellow with pitiful glances, as if they were saying the same thing. Retard! Meeting our King on the battle arena, and you think you can act pitiful and explain your way out? Your cat head must be crazy! You can only blame this on your luck being too bad... kid, accept your fate!
Greatly surpassing the expectations of everyone, these two Cat-bodied Tigers actually did not begin tearing at each other’s throats the moment they met in the arena. Instead, were meowing at each other, seemingly... talking?
What the hell is wrong with these two? Could it be two long lost brothers had finally reunited with each other? Otherwise... how would this be explained? Beast fighting competitions generally only picked males to fight each other, in order to avoid the awkward scene of these Xuan Beasts falling in love with each other!
In that moment, everyone felt as if they were in a dream as they watched the two Cat-bodied Tigers’ ridiculous actions.
“Boss... wu wu... I was being forced, really...” The Cat-bodied Tiger with the white paint on its head cried pathetically.
“There’s no need to explain, I understand...” A deep kingly aura surged out of Little Purple.
“Wu wu... Boss, what should I do then? Tell me your instructions; I’ll definitely fulfill it!”
“I don’t have a solution either ah. At this point, we have to determine a victor.”
“Wu... how can this little one possibly dare to determine a victor against boss? Look, even my tail has been scared limp. Besides, fighting against boss isn’t called determining a victor; it’s just being abused by boss...”
“Your words do make sense. But there’s truly no helping it, ah.”
“Wu wu... I feel so wronged, so pitiful... that bastard of the Zhan Family. What kind of stupid idea is this? F*ck his grandmother... how immoral...”
“No sh*t! That entire family is full of bastards and retards. This is a commonly known fact among the entire Xuan Beast world...”
“Wu wu wu...”
“F*ck! Are you going to fight or not? If you’re not going to attack, I’ll attack now...”
“Wu wu wu...”
“I’m attacking! I’m really attacking!”
“Wu...”
“F*ck, let’s start! This is the first match that I’m fighting on behalf of Master. I must win at all costs! Kid, just accept your fate. Who asked you to be chosen by that retard...”
“Wu... wu wu wu...”
“Stop crying! What are you crying for? Even if you ruptured your eyes crying, it’s still useless! Let’s just fight, perhaps I might consider going easier on you...”
“Boss you must show a little mercy okay... please don’t beat me to death...”
“I’ll try my best. This newly acquired strength is somewhat difficult to control...”
“Oh my god! Save me, ah! Boss, you must try your best to control your strength, ah... Why is my life so bitter?!”
After much anticipation by the crowd, the two Cat-bodied Tigers finally seemed to have reached the end of their discussion. The two stood like a pair peak martial experts about to start a showdown of strength. They looked seriously at each other, and slowly moved their legs, preparing their stance. Then, the two cats circled each other slowly.
“This... this is too gracious isn’t it? This is truly the most bizarre thing I’ve seen today!” One of the spectating Young Masters exclaimed with shock. This person’s eyeballs were practically popping out of his sockets as he pointed at the arena, his face flushed with disbelief...
“Meow—” Little Purple leapt up and morphed into a streak of light. I’m coming! I’m really attacking now!
“Meow~~~” A pathetic voice rang out. Wu wu wu... my dearest boss... I-I-I, I have a hard life, you really absolutely certainly must try to control your strength well ah...
Under the excited eyes of the crowd, the two tumbled together in an intense cat-fight! Both wrestling back and forth, neither giving way to the other...
Such a scene was naturally a result of Little Purple going easy on its opponent. Otherwise, if it wanted to, it could have ended the fight in an instant.
The battle grew more and more intense, and patches of fur flew everywhere in the sky...
Finally!
“Ang!” A loud roar rang out as Little Purple pounced forward, its two sharp claws gleaming fearsomely...
“A-ang! Meow meow...” The other Cat-bodied Tiger also roared hesitantly, quickly meowing a few times to remind Little Purple: Boss, you must remember our promise! Remember to spare my life ah....
Following that, the match was swiftly decided...
Little Purple was completely unhurt as it crawled over its opponent’s body and trotted around the arena in a prideful and kingly manner.
Little Purple was quite magnanimous, leaving its opponent with its life intact. The other Cat-bodied Tiger laid on the ground shivering continuously, its entire body filled with wounds and scratches... Its fresh blood dyed a patch of the ground red, and this was because Little Purple had reined in its strength and gone light on it. Although its external wounds looked gory and unsightly, its bones and internal organs were not hurt at al. But with a single look, it was obvious that this Cat-bodied Tiger had already been defeated, and it did not have the ability to fight anymore!
The victor had been determined, and the black paint on Little Purple’s head clearly indicated Jun Mo Xie’s victory!
Zhan Qing Feng’s face had become the color of dead ash!
Finished!
Everything is finished!
“This challenge has come to an official end! Young Master Mo Jun Ye has five consecutive wins, emerging the ultimate winner! Zhan Family has zero victories and is declared the loser!” Following that, Miao Xiao Miao’s bright voice rang out as she announced the result. In the other inn opposite, the two Zhan Family elders both sighed at the same time as they shook and lowered their heads.
With the results being so clear, even a deity would not be able to turn black into white.
“Senior... this result... this...” One of the old men said warily.
The other old man still had his eyes closed, not saying anything for a long time. Finally, he sighed. “The results of this competition can truly be said to have greatly exceeded our expectations! But this proves one thing: that Free and Natural Physique kid is definitely far from being a simple character than what we had initially imagined. Normally, even if a person had greater talent, it’s impossible to know and be proficient in this many things... Especially that last match, there must definitely be something fishy with that Cat-bodied Tiger...”
“Indeed, how can a common Cat-bodied Tiger suddenly develop such a high intellect in such a short time? Furthermore, it’d clearly been sent over just a moment ago by the beast battling arena. There’s no possibility of it being raised domestically... this..” As the old man spoke to here, he sucked in a deep breath of air.
Two cold gleams of light shone out from the other old man’s eyes. “Are you suspecting that the people of the beast battling arena dealt privately with him? Hm... that is not an impossible matter... send down my instructions, conduct a full investigation on the people at the beast battling arena. If there’s anyone suspicious, there’s no need to inform anybody. Directly get rid of them!”
“Yes!”
“Besides that, help me get that Cat-bodied Tiger and bring it to me. This old man wants to see just what’s so special about it!”
“Yes!”
“And there’s also this Mo Jun Ye. Previously, we only knew that Cao Guo Feng had brought back a successor with the Free and Natural Physique, who is most definitely a peerless talent of cultivation. But now... it doesn’t seem that simple ah! After today’s competition, it’s obvious that this Mo Jun Ye... is extremely dangerous.”
The old man furrowed his brows and pondered for a moment, as if wrestling with some thoughts in his mind. “This person is calm and steadfast, with clear thought processes. His ability to turn situations around is also unrivalled. Moreover, he has a bold temperament, with ruthless methods. No matter which of the five matches it was, even though he had absolute confidence of victory, he was still able to force Qing Feng and Yu Shu into a corner before showing his skills... That way, the two brothers completely lost any chances of overturning the situation... such decisive and ruthless methods and such deep schemes...”
“Also, this person is well versed in music, poetry, calligraphy, painting, and literature; even his chess skills are enough to contend against national level experts! Even things like gambling and other debaucherous skills come extremely naturally to him... Such a person, no matter where he is, will certainly have great fame in a short time wherever he goes. His achievements are like a radiant legend. Even in our Misty Illusory Manor, an illustrious character like this will certainly not be a complete unknown person, even if he didn’t possess a single shred of Xuan Qi! But how come all the reports sound like this person does not even have a past? This is quite clearly a huge point of suspicion.”
“Senior’s meaning is...”
“Immediately send some people out of the Misty Illusory Manor to investigate thoroughly! As long as its anything that has to do with with this Mo Jun Ye, even if it’s a person or an object, investigate clearly for me! I want to see just what kind of a person this Mo Jun Ye is!”
“Yes... in that case, five days may not be enough.” The old man said tentatively.
“Five days? Why are you concerned about that? Did I give you a time limit?”
“It’s just that five days later is the day to officially enter the Spiritual Herbal Gardens! According to the bet, our Zhan Family has to get him a slot if we lose the bet... Could it be, we’re really not giving him the slot?”
“Idiot! Of course we must give it to him! If not, can you delay the matter away!? This is a blood oath written by our own descendants. Do you dare to go back on a vow of that kind?”
“I understand...!”
“Besides, this Mo Jun Ye has the legendary Free and Natural Physique. If he truly has nefarious intentions for entering our Misty Illusory Manor, what will those intentions be? What if it’s the Spiritual Herbal Gardens? If that’s the case, allowing him to enter the Spiritual Herbal Gardens will instead be the best time for us to expose him! Don’t forget, all schemes and tricks are useless...”
“Old ancestor is indeed far-sighted!”
“As for today’s matter, just let it be. This old man will return first. As for Qing Feng and Yu Shu... tell them that this time is just a small lesson for them and also an important experience that they need to learn from. This is a mistake of the family’s planning and cannot be blamed on them. This incident can also be a great help to their growth in the future.”
“Yes!”
A gentle breeze blew through the room, and the windows shook lightly for a moment. In that short moment, the white haired old man had already disappeared without a trace.
