Chapter 186: Beast Fight

As the competition came to an end, there were already several arenas where no one was challenging, and the candidates for the champions were basically determined.

The two came to the bottom of the No. 7 arena.

"It's almost time. I'm going to challenge the champion of the No. 7 arena. What do you think?" After a long period of observation, Mu Jin felt that the time for the challenge had come, so she asked Xu Yang beside her.

"Just as I thought, the champion of the No. 7 are both beast masters like you, and his cultivation is also in the Peiyuan realm. It will be relatively easier for you to challenge him," Xu Yang said.

"Hearing what you said, I have the confidence to win." Mu Jin said confidently.

"I'm here to cheer you on and wish you a successful start. But you'd better be careful and don't risk getting hurt." Xu Yang said, looking at Mu Jin in front of him.

"If I am defeated by him, you beat him down and avenge me." Mu Jin said jokingly, took two steps, smiled back, and turned to the arena.

"Ring No. 7, Bai Mujin challenges Huang Jiu."

On the ring, opposite Bai Mujin stood a young male cultivator wearing khaki cloth, not tall, and with ordinary looks.

Beside him stood a green-skinned one-horned rhinoceros, whose huge body stood on the ring like a green hill.

The beast's horn was like a sickle, its four legs were like four iron pillars, and its body was covered with thick leather armor.

The green-skinned beast stared at the petite Mu Jin opposite with a pair of red eyes, breathing heavily from its two big nostrils, and pounced on him as soon as its master Huang Jiu spoke.

It must be said that Huang Jiu's green-skinned beast was indeed not simple. It was not an ordinary spirit beast. It was said to come from the legendary Dushou Valley.

The Dushou Valley is a mysterious valley hidden in the Wanyu Forest, where the remains of ancient mythical beasts and wild restrictions are left.

Every five years, the remains of the mythical beasts in the Dushou Valley will automatically emit the fluctuations of the summoning of the mythical beasts to the surroundings.

This wave will attract thousands of young spirit beasts into the valley. The young spirit beasts that enter the valley will become bloodthirsty and crazy, and then kill and devour each other.

After five years, only one of them will survive and be blessed by the remains of the divine beast, change its bones and marrow, and activate the power of the wild beast. It is said that the only remaining mutant spirit beast is expected to grow into a wild divine beast.

There were many human monks who wanted to enter the valley to find out, but they were cursed by the remains of the divine beast, became crazy, and ended up becoming meat for the spirit beasts in the valley.

The Qingpi King is a mutant spirit beast king born every five years in this unique beast valley, and his strength is very strong.

As a beast driver, Huang Jiu signed a blood contract with the Qingpi King by chance, and the Qingpi King became his spirit beast.

But the Qingpi King has a natural shortcoming.

Ordinary monks often have their own spirit pets, but most of them can only drive one to participate in the battle. The beast driver can flexibly drive multiple spirit pets to fight together at the same time. The Green-skinned King is a born solitary king who cannot coexist with other spirit beasts. This means that Huang Jiu, who was originally a beast driver, can only drive the Green-skinned King.

But even with the Green-skinned King as a spirit pet, Huang Jiu still became an excellent beast driver.

"Bai Mujin? The name is nice, and the girl is pretty. But be careful, otherwise you will be beaten up by my Green-skinned King and it will be ugly. I, Huang Jiu, am a rough man, and I don't know how to be gentle with women." Huang Jiu said half-jokingly and half-threateningly.

"Hehe." Bai Mujin did not answer, but just laughed dryly twice.

"What are you laughing at? My Green-skinned King eats meat, right?"

"I'm laughing at you because you don't look good to begin with. If you are beaten up with a crooked mouth and slanted eyes, you will be even uglier."

As he said that, he slapped the golden wire cage on his waist.

Three phantoms rolled out, spinning in the air, and when they landed, they had turned into three giant apes about ten feet in size. A silver-backed giant ape, a bone-armored giant ape, and a fire-breathing giant ape.

"Huh? You are also a beast-driving master!"

Looking at the three giant apes on the opposite side, Huang Jiu's heart was beating. In the past, when fighting with opponents, he often gained a two-to-one advantage with the help of the Green Skin King. Most of the cultivators in the Peiyuan realm were not his opponents.

And each of the three giant apes released by Bai Mujin on the opposite side had the strength of the Peiyuan realm. In this way, it was four to two. Not only did he lose all the advantages in the number of combat units, but he also became a disadvantage.

"It's rare to meet people of the same path. Today we have to learn the art of beast-driving." Bai Mujin said.

"That's what I meant." Huang Jiu answered confidently with his hands behind his back.

The audience under the ring was shocked when they saw this formation.

"A beast fight is coming. It's really rare."

"The beast driver is a rare cultivation sect. I have never seen a duel between beast drivers."

"Bai Mujin, why haven't I heard of this pretty girl before?"

"She is a descendant of the Bai family in Qinghuagang. I guess she is an elite disciple secretly cultivated by the Bai family."

...

"Qingpi King, this opponent doesn't look easy to deal with." Huang Jiu said in a voice transmission.

Beast drivers emphasize the unity of human and beast. If the spirit beast is timid, it will most likely lose the next fight. Only when the master and his spirit beast are in the same mind for the decisive battle can the power of the two be exerted.

Huang Jiu communicated with his green-skinned beast with words to understand its fighting spirit at this time and whether it is suitable for a full-scale fight. After all, he and his green-skinned beast had fought two consecutive games before. This third game seemed to be much more difficult than the previous two games.

Hearing the master calling him, the round little ears on both sides of the green-skinned beast's head swung back and forth like spring balls, and then, it raised its head and let out a thunderous beast cry.

It seemed to declare that it was not afraid of the threat from the opposite side and was ready to attack at any time.

Mu Jin's three spirit apes, Monkey Da, Monkey Er and Monkey San, were never docile spirit beasts. Seeing the other side's demonstration, they beat their chests and stamped their feet, roared angrily, and their back hair stood up, showing no weakness.

At the same time, they also told their master that they were ready to destroy the other side's arrogant arrogance at any time.

A fierce beast fight was about to break out.

Bai Mujin turned his wrist deftly, and a black sharp short knife appeared in his hand.

He raised his arm holding the knife, pointed the tip of the knife at the one-horned green rhinoceros opposite, and the three spirit apes rushed over like tigers out of the cage.

Monkey Da's silver-backed ape stepped on the ground with a pair of big feet, making a thumping sound, and took advantage of the situation to jump up, swinging a pair of sandbag-sized fists aimed at the green-skinned beast's head, and fell from the sky.

Monkey Two, the Bone Armored Ape, followed closely behind Monkey One, running wildly on all fours. With the momentum of the charge, it suddenly curled up into a ball, with sharp bone spurs exposed on its body, like a white cactus rolling rapidly and attacking the feet of the green-skinned beast on the opposite side.

Monkey Three, the Fire Spirit Ape, was emitting gurgling hot fire breath all over his body, with his bloody mouth wide open, and three large fireballs roared out with flame tails, directly hitting the trunk of the green-skinned beast.

Huang Jiu saw this and frowned coldly.

He shouted: "Green-skinned King!"

The green-skinned beast seemed to have been waiting impatiently for a long time, and its bloodthirsty eyes were full of the figures of the three spirit apes on the opposite side. No matter whether the opponent was one, three, or ten spirit beasts, in its eyes, they could only submit to itself, and only it would be the only king.

The four strong animal feet stomped hard on the ground, rumbling. The huge animal body was like a chariot rushing out of the killing array, setting off a gust of wind.

With a violent shake of his head, the three fire bombs were blocked by the huge horn behind his nose, and the scattered sparks illuminated half of the ring.

Immediately afterwards, Hou Da's pair of iron fists arrived as promised.

The thick and sharp horn of the green-skinned beast suddenly rose up, like a huge scimitar, and stabbed towards Hou Da's falling figure.

At this moment, Hou Er turned into a bone ball covered with bone spurs and hit the front foot of the green-skinned beast at the right time.

The front foot of the green-skinned beast paused, and the whole body tilted, stabbing at Hou Da's horn and brushing Hou Da's arm.

With a loud "bang", Hou Da's pair of meteor-like iron fists hit the neck of the green-skinned beast.

Hou Da's attack was not just brute force. The spiritual power in his body had long been infused into his fists. It seemed like an ordinary flesh fist attack, but it was like the martial arts of a body-refining monk, containing a powerful spiritual pressure.

At the place of the strike, the splashing spiritual pressure created a circle of spiritual power ripples visible to the naked eye, which was comparable to a thousand-pound hammer.

The green-skinned beast was covered with thick leather armor, but the leather armor on the neck looked thinner than that on the torso. Therefore, Hou Da chose to attack its neck.

The green-skinned beast that was hit just shook slightly, swung its horn violently, and counterattacked.

Fortunately, Hou Da reacted very quickly, stepped on the side of its horn with both feet, and flipped back.

The three spirit apes won because of their seamless cooperation, which also showed the skill of Mu Jin's beast driver.

And Huang Jiu's green-skinned beast won because of its unique talent and strong defense.

For a while, the four beasts chased each other on the ring, like a pack of wolves fighting tigers, evenly matched.

At this time, Bai Mujin and Huang Jiu did not directly participate in the battle.

As beast drivers, the two of them had to compete in beast driving skills and fighting beast strength.

"The three spirit apes on the opposite side are not only full of spiritual energy and powerful, but also have a tacit understanding of offense and defense. They can actually rival the Green-skinned King. In the past, any spirit beast that had not yet formed a pill could not last a few rounds under the horn of the Green-skinned Beast. Bai Mujin's beast-driving skills are indeed superb." Huang Jiu secretly admired Bai Mujin's beast-driving skills.

Although Bai Mujin's three spirit apes are not heaven-defying beasts, they are definitely not comparable to ordinary spirit beasts. They are the exotic beasts obtained by her master Su Li during a trip to the Southern Region, and later given to her as a gift. It was precisely because Mu Jin liked these three spirit apes very much that she embarked on the path of cultivation as a beast-driving master.

"I didn't expect Huang Jiu's Green-skinned Beast to be so powerful. In a one-on-three situation, it was not at all inferior. To be able to drive such an exotic beast, Huang Jiu's mental strength should be as strong as mine." Bai Mujin also estimated Huang Jiu's true strength.

The two looked at each other at the same time, and each of them had read the fighting spirit in the opponent's eyes.

Bai Mujin knew that Xu Yang's real fighting power was far superior to his own, and he should be able to qualify for the second stage. Therefore, he would enter the second stage of the test of the evil ghost way with him, and he must win this fight.

With his mind made up, he secretly used the Blood Soul Broken Veins Art, and a red blade light appeared on the blade of the black short knife in his hand.

With a touch of his toes, his black hair rolled up like clouds, and his white clothes fluttered, he rushed out.

Huang Jiu also came to participate in this ring competition in his personal name. But his innate pride made him never give up easily.

With a flash of golden light in his hand, a gilded short stick appeared in his palm. Mana was madly injected into the short stick, and golden light shone everywhere. He swung the short stick and flew up to meet the attack.

Xu Yang under the ring could see clearly that Huang Jiu and Mu Jin's strength should be on par, and he was worried for Mu Jin.
