Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!

The Blood Lotus Flame Serpent felt terrible, a sense of despair growing within it.

The referee, emphasizing his words, said, "Player Shui Chunle, please summon your pet beast as soon as possible. Do not maliciously delay the time."

Shui Chunle's slow summoning earlier was due to being distracted, but this time, he genuinely wanted to stall for time. The longer he stalled, the more it would benefit the Mermaid Princess.

"10, 9, 8..."

The referee stared at Shui Chunle expressionlessly, beginning the countdown.

Once the countdown ended, it would mean confirming that the player was intentionally delaying the summoning of their pet beast. According to league regulations, the player would be judged as having lost.

When the referee called 'three,' Shui Chunle put his sixth pet beast, the Mermaid Princess, into the arena. He didn't wait until the referee called 'one' to summon her; he still had some pride.

Shui Chunle said, "Mermaid Princess, put on the mermaid protection shield, use Lingbo Micro-steps to dodge attacks, and stall them for four minutes."

The Mermaid Princess obeyed his command and did as she was told.

Li Cunxu said, "Blood Lotus Flame Serpent, a quick battle! Use the strongest Blood Dragon Halberd and Dragon Might."

The Dragon Might that the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent had never used was unleashed at this moment.

Shui Chunle's expression changed drastically, and a sense of regret arose in his heart.

"Dragon Might is the most effective against the Mermaid Princess. How could I forget such important information?"

In ancient times, the mermaid race was ruled by the dragon race. The long-term rule led to a fear of the dragon race deep in their bones. Usually, it's not noticeable, but once the dragon race activates Dragon Might, the mermaid race would either be too frightened to move or be unable to display their full strength.

A sharp Dragon Might emanated from the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent. The Mermaid Princess felt terrifying pressure, as if facing an insurmountable mountain.

Shui Chunle knew the weaknesses of the mermaid race and had specially trained her to resist Dragon Might, usually placing the Mermaid Princess in an environment filled with Dragon Might to build up her resistance.

Therefore, the Mermaid Princess didn't freeze in place upon feeling the Dragon Might, but her legs were still a little weak, and her speed was reduced by at least 40%.

The Mermaid Princess's reduced speed allowed the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent to seize the opportunity and unleash its strongest attack, the Blood Dragon Halberd.

The blood accumulated in the Blood Dragon Pool instantly evaporated, and the dragon patterns on the Blood Dragon Halberd came to life, transforming into a lifelike blood dragon coiling around the halberd.

The Blood Dragon Halberd slashed down, and the huge red blade ruthlessly crushed the mermaid protection shield, like a giant wheel crushing a small wooden boat. The moment the blade touched the Mermaid Princess's nose, the No Death White Light, which was crucial to determining the outcome, shattered.

Without the No Death White Light projected by the arena, the Mermaid Princess would be cut in half by this attack.

Was the Mermaid Princess instantly killed?

Was he swept one-on-six?

Shui Chunle stood there in a daze.

That afternoon, Li Cunxu's popularity reached a new high.

In such a high-caliber Golden Tournament, one one-on-six might be luck, but two one-on-sixes couldn't be explained by luck alone.

Li Cunxu truly had the goods.

At the same time, Li Shiji's enemies noticed Li Cunxu and conceived the idea of killing him.

Before, the enemies only wanted to kill Li Cunxu out of anger due to Li Shiji, using it as a way to vent their frustration. Now, it was different. Now, they wanted to kill Li Cunxu not just to vent their frustration.

Li Cunxu's potential frightened them.

He was participating in the world-class Golden Tournament at the age of eighteen. What were they doing at eighteen? Busy trying to get into a better university.

How could such potential not make people feel apprehensive?

After the battle, Li Cunxu took the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent to the hospital next to the arena for treatment.

"Doctor, my pet beast's heart has been pierced..." Li Cunxu said.

"Wait, you're late," the doctor said.

"I'm late?"

"Yes, you're late. The wound on your pet beast's heart has already healed, better than ever. It doesn't need treatment. It only has some minor skin injuries that need treatment."

The overlord-level pet beast Rabbit Doctor pointed at the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent, and a green self-healing light wave enveloped it. Before long, the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent's injuries were completely healed, including the internal injuries.

Back in his room, Li Cunxu saw a surprise.

Although the Extreme Crystal Dragon didn't have the ability to fight at the Gold level, it could make up the numbers.

Besides, with Little Softie as a backup, it wouldn't be the Extreme Crystal Dragon's turn.

About half an hour later, the Flame White Horse successfully broke through to the Gold level.

Li Cunxu asked with some anticipation, "How many skills did you comprehend?"

The Flame White Horse said, "One."

"One?"

According to the Flame White Horse's potential and aptitude, it shouldn't have only comprehended one skill!

Li Cunxu asked, "What skill did you comprehend?"

"Aurora Speed Horse Hoof Kick."

Li Cunxu's first reaction was that the skill name was a bit long.

His second reaction was, 'So that's the skill it comprehended.'

Li Cunxu was overjoyed. Comprehending this skill alone was enough.

Aurora Speed Horse Hoof Kick was a King-tier skill, a very practical skill that could increase speed, dodge attacks, and attack enemies.

Coupled with the Flame White Horse's legendary talent, Light Speed, the Flame White Horse was basically invincible on the Gold-level battlefield.

The Blood Lotus Flame Serpent was more warlike, and coupled with today's battle, it hadn't fought to its heart's content. The Blood Lotus Flame Serpent took the initiative to challenge.

"I'll test your breakthrough strength and new skill."

The Blood Lotus Flame Serpent was very unhappy with today's battle. It liked head-on, fist-to-fist combat. Even if it wasn't fist-to-fist combat, even if the opponent kept bombarding it with skills, it liked it, because getting hit made it stronger.

But what about the Mermaid Princess?

She was obsessed with defeating it with her despairing singing, giving it no room to get stronger from being hit.

The Flame White Horse readily agreed to the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent's challenge.

It also needed an opponent to test its strength after breaking through to the Gold level.

Little White Spider looked at Li Cunxu, who was lying on the sofa drinking iced cola, and asked curiously, "Why aren't you watching the battle between the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent and the Flame White Horse?"

Li Cunxu watched the live broadcast of other contestants' battles in the Golden Tournament on TV while sucking on the straw of his cola, and said, "It's not worth watching. The outcome of the battle was already decided when the Flame White Horse comprehended the Aurora Speed Horse Hoof Kick."

"The Blood Lotus Flame Serpent lost?"

Little White Spider heard Li Cunxu's tone, as if the Blood Lotus Flame Serpent was 100% going to lose.

"Yes."

"What is Aurora Speed Horse Hoof Kick? Why don't I know about this skill?"

Little White Spider had a photographic memory. When Penma Island was being reclaimed and expanded, its Black Iron clone in Shendu University had almost finished reading all the books in the library, but those books didn't contain any skill information about Aurora Speed Horse Hoof Kick.

Li Cunxu said, "King-tier skill, confidential information. Only King-level individuals are qualified to read it."
