Chapter 210 - Lin Jin VS Yang Jie


Chapter 210: Lin Jin VS Yang Jie

Yang Jie seemed to have been waiting for this moment too. He got up, cast a leaping spell while his white peacock flew over with him to land inside the arena.

The disciples were all riled up as the most exciting battle was about to begin.

Then, with someone to lead them, many people began shouting Yang Jie’s name. In an instant, the hall was filled with cheers for Yang Jie, demonstrating how many more supporters he had.

The reason was simple. Yang Jie’s pet beast was Rank 4.

For most of the disciples, having a Rank 4 pet beast was more than enough to make Yang Jie invincible in the ring. After all, it was the status symbol of an intermediate country.

Yang Jie wasted no time talking and simply urged his white peacock to grow in size. The creature’s aura grew potent, and the domineering air of a Rank 4 pet beast was unleashed.

“Lin Jin, your glory is only temporary. Trying to challenge me? You are a hundred years too early to be worthy of that.” Yang Jie invoked a spell that allowed him to float in mid-air. With his robes fluttering in the breeze, the man looked just like a deity who had just descended from heaven.

Lin Jin smiled and held a hand up to use his deterrence ability on the white peacock.

Since it was a Rank 4 beast, it should be able to be influenced by the intermediate beast deterrence ability as well.

Sure enough, after Lin Jin extended his arm, as if it was slapped down by an invisible force, the white peacock fell from the sky.

This scene startled everyone.

In an instant, no one made a sound and the hall was so eerily quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Inside the private spectator’s compartment, Ye Yuzhou sighed. “Yang Jie is too proud of himself so suffering a little would do him some good.”

Yang Jie couldn’t believe what he was seeing. What on earth was happening for his mighty Rank 4 white peacock to fall out of the air like that? Was it because of that hand gesture from Lin Jin? No way!

Yang Jie felt as if he was dreaming.

His Rank 4 pet beast was being subdued.

How was it possible?

But this was a fact. With his pet beast subdued, how was he supposed to fight?

One of the spectators came to and mumbled, “Did Senior Yang Jie lose just like that?”

“That’s impossible. It’s Senior Yang Jie we’re talking about here.”

“Something must have gone wrong.”

The crowd began discussing.

Yang Jie shot them a glare before casting another spell.

“Magic Song!”

Yang Jie was genuinely skilled in spell-casting as well. As expected of Ye Yuzhou’s prized student, the man actually chose the most suitable spell for this situation.

The white peacock let out a cry.

The bird’s voice was so ear-splitting that it made the spectators’ heads spin.

Lin Jin felt light-headed too so his deterrence ability was immediately cut off.

The white peacock could finally raise its head. This creature had the exact same personality as Yang Jie. It was equally as proud, so after breaking free from the oppression, it went in for an attack.

Opening its beak, a hundred blades of wind was sent towards its target.

Meanwhile, Yang Jie breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn’t know what method Lin Jin used to suppress his pet beast, he was sure that had he not used this trick, he would have been defeated then and there.

His only option now was to use his pet beast’s Rank 4 status to overpower the opponent. That way, Lin Jin would have no chance of winning.

In Yang Jie’s perspective, Lin Jin’s pet beast couldn’t possibly defend against the Hundred Wind Blades. In fact, it was likely that the fire wolf might die from this attack. It was just that lethal.

Having one’s pet beast die in a duel was one of the worst things that could happen.

However, the next instant, Xiao Huo’s frame grew larger as flames engulfed his body. Then, with a sweep of his tail, a whirlwind of fire was sent forth to counter the Hundred Wind Blades.

Both attacks clashed and canceled each other out.

However, this wasn’t the most shocking revelation. Xiao Huo’s aura wasn’t the least bit inferior to the white peacock. No, his was even stronger.

By now, anyone with eyes could tell what had just happened.

“Rank 4!”

“It’s actually a Rank 4 beast too!”

The entire hall gasped.

This discovery was too shocking. After all, there were only a handful of Rank 4 pet beasts throughout the Jade Dragon Kingdom, and most belonged exclusively to imperial guardians. Prior to this, in all of Maple City, Ye Yuzhou was the only person with a Rank 4 pet beast. That was why the evolution of Yang Jie’s pet beast caused such a huge uproar. But who knew that Lin Jin’s pet beast had also evolved up to Rank 4 too.

Since when was evolving beasts up to Rank 4 such an easy feat?

In the mentor’s panel, all the teachers were gawking.

Luo Beihe, Mr. Yi, and even Huangfu Ming were the same. Upon recovering from the initial shock, they smiled bitterly.

As mentors of the Friar Association, their pet beasts’ rank was actually below the disciples’.

“Now this disciple tournament will be worth watching.”

“Yeah, what a rare opportunity, to be able to see the clash between Rank 4 pet beasts.”

There were also mentors who were more interested in what Lin Jin used to subdue Yang Jie’s white peacock just now.

Meanwhile, in the ring, Lin Jin noticed that Xiao Huo was raring to go. After giving it some thought, he realized that ever since the little guy evolved up to Rank 4, he had never experienced true combat before. The fire wolf must have a lot of pent-up frustrations at this point. Now was the perfect opportunity for the wolf to try out his powers.

Moreover, invoking the beast deterrence ability was pretty exhausting too so it made sense for him to sent Xiao Huo into battle.

“Go!”

Lin Jin called from behind and Xiao Huo immediately initiated an attack.

Among those present, the one who was most appalled to find out that Lin Jin’s pet beast had also achieved Rank 4 was Yang Jie.

He knew how difficult it was to promote a pet beast up to Rank 4. Despite the aid of the ancient pill, he still had to accumulate years of experience just so his white peacock could evolve.

Initially, his plan was to teach Lin Jin a harsh lesson with his superior pet beast. To prove to everyone that he was still the number one disciple, but who knew that Lin Jin’s pet beast had evolved too.

But Yang Jie managed to quickly regain his composure.

So what if it evolved up to Rank 4?

With their pet beasts on the same rank, victory now hinged upon the spell casters’ abilities.

At this, Yang Jie unleashed an ultimate spell.

He couldn’t be bothered with other smaller spells. Up against a formidable opponent like Lin Jin, he had to give his all.

Before he knew it, the opponent that he had no regard for suddenly became his strongest foe.

“Blood Contract, Bestial Power!”

Once his spell was cast, the white peacock seemed to have sensed something and crowed at the sky. Then, a stream of essence flowed out of its beak and rushed into Yang Jie’s body like a swarm of bees.

Ye Yuzhou who was watching from the private compartment was shocked by this scene. ‘Yang Jie actually used this spell. Looks like he’s going for a decisive victory.’

Then, he sighed and mumbled to himself, “Oh Yang Jie, you’re my disciple so of course I’m hoping that you would win, but I’m sure that the Curator’s disciple has something up his sleeve. I’m afraid that you might not get your wish. Now that I think of it, It’s my fault that you’ve grown so arrogant. I hope you’ll be able to learn and grow from this experience.”

His statement startled both Lu Bin and Bai Zhenkong.

It was obvious that Yang Jie’s power was at its peak and this probably made him one of the strongest experts in the Jade Dragon Kingdom. And yet, Ye Yuzhou was still behaving as if the man was no match for Lin Jin.

But that made sense. According to Ye Yuzhou’s description of this mysterious ‘Curator’, if the man was truly that phenomenal, his disciple should be equally as impressive.

Intrigued, the two focused their attention on the battle.

In the arena, Yang Jie’s body was glowing with white light as a tempest enveloped him. He rose twenty feet above the ground with a pair of wings appearing on his back looking just like an angel.

Everyone was stunned by this scene. The knowledgeable ones immediately recognized this to be a high-level blood contract spell. It was used to enhance the caster with his pet beast’s abilities and for a short amount of time. Just like ancient immortals, that individual would have supernatural powers that could summon rain or lightning, and if their pet beast’s rank and blood contract level had reached a certain level, they could even move mountains and part seas.

However, Yang Jie only had an entry-level mastery of this skill. Even so, his might was something no average friar could ever hope to achieve.

Everyone could tell that Yang Jie was planning to have his pet beast subdue the other’s pet beast before he shifts his aim onto Lin Jin himself.

Under such circumstances, Lin Jin couldn’t possibly match up to Yang Jie.

Unless he knew Bestial Power as well.

But it was obvious that he didn’t.

When it came to physical combat, other than menial knowledge in using the spirit energy finger, he basically knew no other offense skills, never mind something as complex as this one.

Yang Jie flapped his wings and cast a Wind Blade spell.

Several Wind Blades came raining down from the sky.

Seeing this, Lin Jin quickly rolled over, escaping the target area by mere millimeters. The spot where he stood was now slashed open with debris scattering everywhere.

The mentors by the arena who were in charge of safety broke out in cold sweat. Their task was to maintain order and ensure the disciples’ safety during crucial moments like this.

However, the speed of Yang Jie’s Wind Blades had exceeded their reaction time. The mentors couldn’t possibly rescue anyone in time if accidents were to happen. Both fighters in the ring were already beyond what the mentors could handle so even if an accident happened, there was nothing they could do.

They were scared too. Worst case scenario, some lives may be threatened.
