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

The catch with the Mirage Beast Fighting Secret Realm is that exiting it requires a Beast Fighting Coin to buy a ticket. If you can't afford the ticket, then sorry, you're stuck.

This secret realm was built by an emperor. Don't let its small size fool you; it's only as big as a coliseum. But even monarch-level experts have to obediently pay a Beast Fighting Coin to leave.

If someone doesn't know the rules and uses the free Beast Fighting Coin they receive, the only way to get out is to participate in the beast fights and earn more coins.

The stronger the opponent, the more Beast Fighting Coins you earn for winning.

However, there are pitfalls to fighting in the arena.

First, the rules are different from traditional beastmaster battles. Once a pet beast enters the arena, the beastmaster can't command it; it has to rely on its own fighting instincts.

Second, once you enter the arena, you must win ten battles to be allowed to pay for your exit ticket.

Third, when a pet beast enters the arena, it must win ten consecutive battles to choose to leave. If it loses during that time, the only outcome is death.

Finally, the matchmaking system is vicious. The first opponent is a phantom pet beast of the same level, but the second, third, and so on, gradually increase in strength. By the tenth battle, the opponent is ten levels higher.

If the pet beast is Lord Level 9, then its tenth opponent will be Overlord Level 9.

Therefore, fighting in the arena is the worst option.

Li Cunxu's original plan was to have the Curse Raven enter the arena.

Death in the arena is permanent, but the Curse Raven can be resurrected many times. It can lose and die as much as it wants.

He wanted to exploit a bug in the arena, but now the plan has changed. Li Cunxu has a better alternative.

"Besides fighting in the arena to earn Beast Fighting Coins, there's another way: betting. You bet on which of the two fighting pet beasts will win or lose. So, Lingyun, I'm counting on you."

Li Cunxu handed his Beast Fighting Coin to Jiang Lingyun.

Betting on which pet beast will win in a brutal fight is all about having a keen eye.

Li Cunxu's eyesight isn't that great. Most of the time, he relies on the panel to distinguish the strength of pet beasts, but the panel can only see uncontracted pet beasts, and the coliseum only has phantoms. The panel function is useless here.

But whatever.

Even if your eyesight is bad, good luck can still work.

Suddenly, the door behind him flickered, and Sima Jing entered.

The Sky Patrol Flying Eagle and the Myriad Mile Tracking Hound followed Sima Jing in. The Sky Patrol Flying Eagle saw Li Cunxu and immediately attacked without hesitation. It wanted to capture Li Cunxu and force him to reveal how to get rid of the strange fire.

As the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle swooped towards Li Cunxu, Sima Jing sensed something was wrong. Li Cunxu was too calm. He had already turned around and seen them coming, so why wasn't he dodging?

"Sky Patrol Flying Eagle, wait!"

It was too late; the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle was too fast.

When the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle's sharp claws were half a meter away from Li Cunxu, ten illusory golden chains burst out of the void and trapped the eagle.

The next second, the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle disappeared.

Li Cunxu glanced down at the pet beast entrance below, and through the metal gate made of metal bars, he saw the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle chained up.

After the giant lion and giant tiger finish fighting, it will be the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle's turn.

Sima Jing said grimly, "What did you do?"

Li Cunxu said, "I'll ask you a question. If you answer it, I'll tell you what happened to the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle."

Li Cunxu asked, "The last time, the Vendetta Alliance sent three kings. The time before that, they sent two kings. Why did you only send one overlord this time? Does the Vendetta Alliance have no more kings?"

Sima Jing was silent for a long time, then said, "It's because of your grandfather. He ran to the Ice Capital Outpost and blocked all the Vendetta Alliance kings who were taking icebreakers.

Okay, now tell me what happened to my Sky Patrol Flying Eagle?"

Li Cunxu pointed downwards, trying hard to gesture.

"See? Your Sky Patrol Flying Eagle is down there. It violated the rules of the secret realm and was forcibly arranged to fight in the arena."

"You understand this secret realm. How can I save it?"

Sima Jing saw the Sky Patrol Flying Eagle.

Li Cunxu smiled. "Wait until it fights enough ten battles."

Sima Jing pointed at the black fire burning on his head. "How can I extinguish this fire?"

Li Cunxu smiled without saying a word.

Sima Jing was the enemy, so how could he tell him?

Sima Jing said, "As long as you can extinguish this fire, I can promise not to capture you."

Li Cunxu remained unmoved.

Sima Jing continued to raise the stakes. "I can also be a spy for you in the Vendetta Alliance and provide information."

Li Cunxu directly stuffed earplugs into his ears, refusing to communicate with Sima Jing.

What need did he have for a spy in the Vendetta Alliance? If there was any information he wanted to know, he could ask his grandfather, Li Shiji.

His grandfather's information might be even more detailed than the internal information of the Vendetta Alliance.

Li Shiji's Demonic Lotus Eye Technique - Dao Heart Demon Seed. As long as the other party's Dao Heart had a slight flaw, Li Shiji could completely control that person through the Dao Heart Demon Seed. If he needed to know any information, he could control a few people and he would know.

Li Cunxu sat down in the coliseum's audience seat, and casually picked up a stone tablet next to the chair, injecting a bit of mental power to activate it.

It displayed who to bet on, and the resources that could be exchanged in the treasure vault.

Seeing the dazzling array of resources, Li Cunxu couldn't help but sit up straight.

"So many rare resources."

Li Cunxu wiped his saliva and exclaimed in amazement.

There were so many good things, it was too good.

There were even ten Legendary-Emperor-level resources.

"Why didn't the Mirage Beast Fighting Secret Realm have so many good things in my past life?"

Li Cunxu thought about it and understood what was going on. He had come to the Mirage Beast Fighting Secret Realm too late. The good things inside had already been exchanged by those guilds.

Li Cunxu thought as he flipped through the pages, looking at the treasures.

Suddenly, his hand stopped.

"There's actually a Treasure Seeking Orb here. If it's here, there's no need to look for it outside. I have to get it."

The Treasure Seeking Orb could activate the Treasure Seeking Rat bloodline in the Gold Brocade Mouse, and it was a necessary item for the Gold Brocade Mouse to evolve into a Treasure Seeking Rat.

Li Cunxu looked at the price. Exchanging for a Treasure Seeking Orb required two thousand three hundred Beast Fighting Coins.

"Relying on Jiang Lingyun's bets alone, I can only get a maximum of one thousand and twenty-four Beast Fighting Coins. The Beast Fighting Coins are far from enough. I still have to go down to the arena to fight and earn some Beast Fighting Coins."

The secret realm gave two Beast Fighting Coins to the two of them, so Jiang Lingyun's betting capital was two Beast Fighting Coins.

The betting rules of the arena were that each time you win, the number of Beast Fighting Coins you bet doubles.

If you lose, all the Beast Fighting Coins you bet are gone.

If you bet and win nine times in a row, two Beast Fighting Coins can be turned into one thousand and twenty-four Beast Fighting Coins.

Why only bet nine times? Why not bet ten times, eleven times...?"

This has to do with the Mirage Beast Fighting Secret Realm's manipulation of the win rate.
