Chapter 447: Chapter 322: Battle, Hunting Rookie King (2)
Translator: 549690339
Chu Mu’s fourth battle was against a strong competitor from Soul Pet Palace, and the fight was not as easy as before. One can say that it was somewhat difficult for him to win this match.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast, Ice-Feathered Spirit, and Demon Tree Warrior, Chu Mu’s three soul pets, had all suffered injuries during the battle. Fortunately, the final fifth battle had two days of rest time, during which Chu Mu could adjust the conditions of his soul pets.
After the fourth battle, Chu Mu had some conclusions. These middle-aged experts were more proficient in the use of soul pet skills. The opponent Chu Mu faced this time set several traps, which Chu Mu almost fell for. Thanks to his long-term combat experience, Chu Mu was able to maintain the highest level of vigilance, preventing his defeat in the fourth round.
The fifth battle was held on the seventh day. The Night Thunder Dream Beast and Ice-Feathered Spirit were still not fully recovered. This time, the main battle forces were Zhan Ye and the Demon Tree Warrior. Furthermore, Chu Mu decided to let the injured Night Thunder Dream Beast continue to participate in the battle.
Although it was not a contest for the strongest, the fight for second strongest was also gaining attention, because the person who was very likely to become the second strongest was a member of the younger generation, who was only in his twenties!
It was rare for a younger generation expert to compete for second place in a middle-aged competition!
“Chu Chen surprisingly made it to the final battle for second place with a record of two victories, one defeat, and one more victory …” The teenager Teng Hai’s eyes widened when he saw Chu Mu standing on the battlefield.
He and Luo Peng believed it should have been Qi Mo from Soul Pet Palace standing on the battlefield. They did not expect the somewhat famous Qi Mo to be defeated by this young generation member…
Though Qi Mo’s loss wasn’t a big deal, the competition had now become a battle between Hunting Rookie King Luo Peng and Chu Chen!
Teng Hai’s gaze focused on the masked Luo Peng on the other side of the battlefield. For a moment, he felt helpless, as it turned out that these two similarly-aged people were the ones to have the final showdown…
“What’s wrong, you look so strange?” Ting Lan, seeing her younger brother’s bizarre expression, asked puzzledly.
“Oh, it’s nothing… I just didn’t expect Chu Chen to be on the field fighting for the second place.” Teng Hai couldn’t reveal Luo Peng’s identity. After all, even a man with absolute confidence in surpassing the woman he liked wouldn’t want to admit that he had once been her defeating opponent. It wasn’t that Luo Peng felt embarrassed, but he was worried that Ting Lan would develop a preconceived notion of him as her defeated opponent, which would hinder their future development. So, Luo Peng specifically advised Teng Hai not to reveal his identity.
“Well, it’s indeed surprising that Soul-realm has recruited such a promising youngster. When we return to the World City, I should mention it to my father,” Ting Lan said, showing some approval for Chu Mu.
“However, it’s probably as far as he goes,” said Teng Hai.
The masked man was Luo Peng, the Hunting Rookie King. Which of the surrounding twenty-year-old young generation members would dare to boast that they could defeat him?
Teng Hai knew Luo Peng’s strength very well, and the second-place title in this competition would definitely belong to Luo Peng.
“Ting Lan, sister, I heard that you were here, so I came specially.” A female voice suddenly came, followed by a woman with an average appearance but wearing luxurious clothes walking over and sitting next to Ting Lan.
Along with her, four men also came over. Upon seeing Ting Lan, their eyes lit up but then quickly turned embarrassed.
“Yu Sui, younger sister…” Ting Lan greeted the others amicably.
“Miss Ting Lan, I’m sorry, we couldn’t get the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird for you…” Team Leader Da Kun first expressed his failure in this reward mission.
“Actually, we were so close. We just didn’t expect another kid to beat us to it…” Zhang Ying spoke indignantly.
This time, their team took the reward not just for the high rewards but also to make a good impression on this renowned woman. As a result, they returned empty-handed even after enthusiastically accepting the reward, causing all four men to feel somewhat ashamed.
“It’s alright; I’ve already bought the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird,” Ting Lan saw the mood of the others and explained with a smile.
Ting Lan was much stronger than the five of them combined, but she didn’t know how to hunt. Hunting required skill, like tracking young pet footprints and observing their habitats. If Ting Lan didn’t know how to do these things, she could easily disturb more powerful soul pets in the Monarch level territory…
Ting Lan also knew that professional help was needed in hunting, so she had specially issued a reward for these five people to help her get the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird.
“You’ve already bought it? From whom?” Yu Sui immediately showed a look of surprise, anxiously asking.
The other four also looked at each other, but they soon realized that Ting Lan might have bought it from the young man who had beaten them to it.
“That guy on the battlefield over there,” Ting Lan pointed at Chu Mu and said calmly.
The eyes of the five people almost simultaneously fell on Chu Mu, who was facing them, and soon their eyes widened.
“It’s him! Team Leader, it’s him! What was his name, right, Chu Chen!” Zhang Ying was the first to shout. His words were also somewhat annoyed and indignant.
“Zhang Ying, calm down.” Dakun’s face became a bit more serious, and he specifically reminded Zhang Ying not to be so agitated.
After the other few looked surprised and puzzled, they all maintained their silence.
Except for Zhang Ying, whose nerves seemed to be a little bit overreacting, the other four were well aware that the young man called Chu Chen down there was not someone they could provoke at will!
This young man possessed an extraordinary hunting talent, and his strength was very strong. His presence in the sub-champion battle of the annual competition was the best proof!
Upon asking themselves, they dared not say that they would be able to stand on such a sub-champion arena after a few more years!
Ting Lan could also guess that Chu Chen’s team must have competed with Dakun’s team for the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird, and Chu Chen’s team had gotten there first. This kind of thing happened from time to time, so Ting Lan couldn’t say much, only suggesting tactfully: “The competition is about to start, sit down and watch.”
The five of them felt very stifled but had no choice but to acquiesce. Now they could only sit in the stands and see what extraordinary soul pets this young man had.
When Luo Peng saw Chu Chen, his face was also full of astonishment. This was the middle-aged generation’s arena, and Luo Peng thought his opponent would be a 30-year-old, veteran soul pet master, but it turned out to be a young man of his own age.
As the Hunting Rookie King, Luo Peng had always surpassed his peers, and it had been a long time since he had fought with someone his own age. He didn’t expect to encounter a peer expert in such a competition. In addition to surprise, he also felt a sense of excitement when meeting a worthy opponent.
Since the other party could make it here, their strength must be genuine. Rather than fighting unequally with middle-aged experts, Luo Peng would also prefer to fight with such a pinnacle young expert!
“Why haven’t I ever heard your name?” Luo Peng asked.

“I haven’t heard your name either,” Chu Mu responded indifferently.
Luo Peng smiled perfunctorily. Of course, the other party hadn’t heard his name because he was using a pseudonym. If he used his real name, he was sure this young man named Chu Chen would be very surprised and speechless.
Looking at Chu Mu’s casual expression, Luo Peng secretly laughed, “He must think I’m a middle-aged soul pet master, and there would be no shame in losing to me. Haha, after the battle is over, I’ll reveal my identity to him in a low-key way. I guess his expression will be priceless then.”
Luo Peng knew the mentality of peak young experts. They might lose to stronger opponents older than themselves, but they could never afford to lose to their peers. For them, losing a battle would be a massive blow. Luo Peng thought it was funny that this guy, Chu Chen, was still in the dark.
“Summon your soul pets!” The main judge shouted!
“Summon your soul pets!” The two vice judges repeated.
Chu Mu and Luo Peng began chanting the summoning spells at the same time. There was no time to change soul pets during battle, so every soul pet summoning had to be very deliberate, especially the first soul pet, which was crucial to the entire battle.
“Demon Tree Warrior!”
Chu Mu resolutely chose the Seventh Rank Seventh Stage Demon Tree Warrior to participate in the battle. The Demon Tree Warrior’s injuries could be recovered through Life Siphon. Although it had been hurt in the previous battles, it had fully recovered by now.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast still had injuries, having only about 80%-90% combat power, so it shouldn’t be the first to fight. Chu Mu worried that Zhan Ye would encounter a demon spirit with strong restrictive abilities, rendering the effects of Courageous Sting’s Heart useless.
Roots slowly emerged from the pattern Chu Mu had cast, and the green Ran Wood with a tinge of blood gradually transformed into a thick Ran Wood Armor.
The Ran Wood Armor took shape first, and the Demon Tree Warrior’s body slowly emerged through the armor.
“As expected, it’s the Demon Tree Warrior.” Teng Hai commented.
“Demon Tree Warrior?” Dakun and the other four looked astonished. Could it be that this guy got through the Narrow Path relying on just one high-level war marshal-ranked soul pet?
“Just pay close attention.” Ting Lan still had faith in Chu Mu’s Demon Tree Warrior. After all, as a soul pet master who did not despise their soul pet’s species ranking and strengthened it to the monarch level, it was something very commendable.
Indeed, the strength of the Demon Tree Warrior, with only a high-level war marshal species ranking, was very strong, and it was on par with those monarchs. In fact, Chu Mu was able to get through the Narrow Path successfully just because of this war marshal-ranked soul pet.
(Today’s third chapter. Chapter 318 has been corrected. Due to Little Fish’s mistakes, friends with wrongly subscribed can re-open and view. The editor reminded me, and I realized that the backstage operation was a bit messy. It was due to my negligence and the drawbacks of mobile phone operation. Here, I would like to deeply apologize to the friends who have been angry and hurt in the subscription process and waiting for updates. I would like to bow deeply and stand still, letting everyone throw fruit peels and paper scraps… No matter what, I can’t explain it clearly, nor do I want to shirk responsibility. What Little Fish can do now is to keep updating amidst everyone’s complaints because I think that after the updates are affected, it would be even more disrespectful and irresponsible to everyone… There are four chapters today, and there will be one later. The weekend will also have three more chapters…) To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
