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

The red-haired, two-headed dog had fiery red fur. Flames burned at the tips of its four paws and tail. As soon as it appeared, the sulfurous aura of hell permeated the entire arena.

“A pink-furred, three-headed dog, a red-haired, two-headed dog… Why do you always contract these oddities?”

Li Cunxu said to Sima Jing.

The red-haired, two-headed dog was also a hybrid of the Hellhound, crossbred with a Balrog, making it extremely adept at using fire.

Sima Jing sneered, “What do you know? You simply don’t understand their strength.”

Li Cunxu quietly retorted, “But I do understand their lifespan is short.”

Hybrid creatures of demonic pets, possessing two excellent sets of genes, grow very quickly and are stronger than ordinary demonic pets. However, they have a fatal flaw: their genes are unstable, and they often develop genetic diseases. Affected by these diseases, the lifespan of hybrid demonic pets is reduced by at least half.

Sima Jing said, “Even if their life is short, it's not as short as your dead crow’s. It will soon be killed by my red-haired, two-headed dog.”

While Li Cunxu and Sima Jing were bickering,

The battle below had already begun.

The Time Domain of the Curse-Crossing Raven clashed against the Fire Domain of the red-haired, two-headed dog.

The Fire Domain overwhelmed the Time Domain.

The Curse-Crossing Raven’s Hundred-Feather Barrage was met by the red-haired, two-headed dog simply opening its mouths and, empowered by the Fire Domain, spewing out two streams of fire. The flames incinerated the hundreds of feathers into ashes.

The red-haired, two-headed dog launched fireballs from both mouths. The Curse-Crossing Raven frantically dodged, evading the first fireball but failing to avoid the second.

The scorching beam of the fireball tore through the sky, directly hitting the Curse-Crossing Raven, which couldn't dodge in time. Instantly, the raven’s figure was engulfed in dazzling fire, and the scattered feathers were ignited, quickly burning and turning into sparks.

The charred body of the Curse-Crossing Raven fell straight down.

Sima Jing clapped and cheered.

“Well done!”

Sima Jing hated Li Cunxu to death. If it weren't for Li Cunxu, he wouldn't have come to this broken secret realm, and his Sky-Patrolling Flying Eagle wouldn't have been killed by the secret realm's rules.

Li Cunxu felt very wronged. You hunted me, and I fought back; isn't that normal? Did you expect me to not resist and just surrender when you hunted me?

The red-haired, two-headed dog raised both heads high, slowly walking towards the Curse-Crossing Raven, like a hunter approaching his dinner.

The red-haired, two-headed dog pressed a paw on the Curse-Crossing Raven, its two large mouths biting down on both wings. With a sudden jerk from both heads, the raven's wings were torn off.

“That’s it! Devour it completely!”

The red-haired, two-headed dog lost the desire to continue torturing the Curse-Crossing Raven and chose to kill it directly.

Balrog Claw.

The super-hot flaming dog claw struck down, and the Curse-Crossing Raven died.

At the same time, the aura of the red-haired, two-headed dog rapidly weakened. The entire dog decayed at an extremely fast rate. Most noticeably, the flames on its four paws and tail extinguished, and its strong body rapidly withered.

Before long, both mouths of the red-haired, two-headed dog coughed up blood.

Jiang Lingyun asked strangely, “What's wrong with it? Is it being punished for killing the Curse-Crossing Raven?”

Sima Jing suddenly turned his head and questioned Li Cunxu, “What did you do?”

Li Cunxu softly said, “It's not being punished; it's been hit by the Curse-Crossing Raven's 'Die Together' curse.”

Jiang Lingyun murmured in confusion, “'Die Together' curse?”

“The 'Die Together' curse is a curse of trading one life for another.”

“Wouldn't this curse be impossible to defend against?”

“Not impossible. If you have curse-resistant equipment or tools, the 'Die Together' curse will be ineffective. Alternatively, if your level is significantly higher than the Curse-Crossing Raven’s, the 'Die Together' curse will also have no effect on you.”

Under the curse of the 'Die Together' curse, the red-haired, two-headed dog died.

At this moment, two phantom maids appeared, taking out coffins to place the corpses of the Curse-Crossing Raven and the red-haired, two-headed dog inside.

The Phantom Beast Fighting Secret Realm then performed its rather beastly act.

The phantom maids exchanged the pet's corpses for bone coins, not to return them to the Beast Master, but to allow the Beast Master to spend one hundred beast fighting coins in the treasure vault to redeem them. If the Beast Master didn't redeem the pet's corpse within a day, then the treasure vault would dismantle the valuable parts of the pet's corpse and sell them separately.

The Curse-Crossing Raven won three matches and drew one.

In the first match, it earned ten beast fighting coins.

In the second match, it earned twenty beast fighting coins.

In the third match, it earned thirty beast fighting coins.

The draw didn't count.

The Curse-Crossing Raven fought to the death to earn only sixty, but redeeming its corpse cost a hundred. It didn't even earn enough to redeem its own corpse.

Fortunately, Li Cunxu didn't need to redeem the Curse-Crossing Raven's corpse. The Curse-Crossing Raven's Time Reset activated, moving the reset time forward to when it was still in the Beast Space, before Li Cunxu summoned it.

Thus, the Curse-Crossing Raven's corpse disappeared from the treasure vault, and the Curse-Crossing Raven silently revived in Li Cunxu's Beast Space.

Compared to Li Cunxu, Sima Jing was in a worse situation.

Because it was a draw, he didn't earn any beast fighting coins. Li Cunxu at least had sixty beast fighting coins to redeem the corpse, while Sima Jing didn't have a single penny to redeem the corpse.

Li Cunxu summoned the Curse-Crossing Raven again.

It was still the Curse-Crossing Raven entering the arena, able to escape with a fake death if it encountered an unbeatable opponent.

Seeing the summoned Curse-Crossing Raven, Jiang Lingyun was full of doubts.

Did the boss contract two Curse-Crossing Ravens?

The Curse-Crossing Raven entered the arena again, winning three matches before losing the fourth.

Then Li Cunxu summoned the Curse-Crossing Raven to the arena again.

Jiang Lingyun was even more puzzled. When did the boss contract three Curse-Crossing Ravens, and even raised them to the Lord level?

Sima Jing also felt strange. The information didn't say that Li Cunxu contracted three Curse-Crossing Ravens, did it?

This time, the Curse-Crossing Raven was lucky enough to win the fourth match before losing in the fifth.

So far, the Curse-Crossing Raven had won enough matches for Li Cunxu, earning him two hundred and twenty beast fighting coins.

Adding the two beast fighting coins given as a gift, the total was two hundred and twenty-two beast fighting coins.

Li Cunxu calculated that with so many beast fighting coins, betting nine times and winning every time would multiply the beast fighting coins to one hundred and thirteen thousand six hundred and sixty-four.

One hundred thousand beast fighting coins could basically be exchanged for a Legend · Emperor-level resource.

“I can actually earn a Legend · Emperor-level resource on this trip.” Li Cunxu gasped.

While Li Cunxu was calculating, Sima Jing sent out his pet beasts to continue the beast fighting.

The Lord-level pet beasts he sent out only won two matches.

Another pet beast died. The successive deaths of pet beasts made Sima Jing unable to withstand the backlash of the contract. His entire mind was now muddled.

Sima Jing now had only one thought in his mind.

Leave this place.

Sima Jing took the beast fighting coins to buy a ticket, but was rejected. Sima Jing angrily smashed the door.

The phantom maid said, “Violently breaking the door, you have triggered the rules of this secret realm. You will be fined one thousand beast fighting coins. Only after paying the fine will you be allowed to leave.”
