Chapter 102: Chapter 102: The First, Banquet (1)_1

Seeing Xiaoyin, a level higher than the Iron Claw Yellow Lion, Cang Jin showed no surprise. Ever since he witnessed virtually all the Phantom Masters of the Mors Empire owning either Divine Beasts or Advanced Level Holy Beasts, he knew that Dugu Qianye must certainly have a Divine Beast as well.

"Tieyi, come out." Seeing his own Divine Beast being badly wounded by Xiaoyin, Cang Jin revealed his trump card.

As his words fell, a Tieyi Roc appeared on the competition field, its five four-pointed stars dazzling the crowd. Although there were many Divine Beasts in this contest, most of them were of lower levels, and there hadn’t been any appearance of a level 5 Divine Beast like this before.

"So, you have contracted another Divine Beast, no wonder your Phantom Power has increased so much," Dugu Qianye said.

When Cang Mou saw Dugu Qianye looking blankly at the great Roc, thinking he was scared stiff, he couldn’t help but feel elated. His youngest son had already awakened and said that Dugu Qianye was the first to strike him and instigated others to do the same. Therefore, besides Sang Yu, Dugu Qianye was the person he most wanted to get rid of.

Not just Cang Mou, everyone else, observing Dugu Qianye’s demeanor, thought she was shocked silly. Of course, this didn’t include the people from the Mors Empire.

"What is brother doing? Why is he staring blankly at that great Roc?" Dan Jingtian couldn’t help but ask Mo Ziqing beside him.

Mo Ziqing shifted his position, leaning back in his chair, and said, "I think, she is probably debating on which one to send out for the battle."

Mo Ziqing guessed right, at that moment, Dugu Qianye indeed was struggling to decide who to send out. Lan Mei definitely shouldn’t, for it would shock the audience; Qingluan’s level was too high, Xiaohuo’s identity was too special, and Xiaojiu and the others couldn’t fly.

"Hehe, master, let me do it," Qingluan said with a light laugh.

"Sister, I want to come out too," Xiaohuo also volunteered to Dugu Qianye.

After giving it some thought, Dugu Qianye summoned Qingluan in the nick of time, just as the Tieyi Roc was making its move towards her. The moment Qingluan appeared, the Advanced Level Divine Beast’s oppressive presence spread across the competition field. Its magnificent appearance and noble temperament made others unable to resist submission.

"He actually has two Divine Beasts?!"

"Wow, so strong!"

Qingluan ignored the sensation caused by its arrival and said to the trembling Roc in front of it, "A mere Roc dares to act reckless before my master!" Then, with a flap of its wings, it sent the Roc flying.

"Fl-flown away," the crowd swallowed hard. What level of Divine Beast was this, that it simply sent a level 5 Divine Beast flying? How nice it would be to own such a formidable Divine Beast one day.

At this moment, Xiaoyin had also beaten that lion to its last breath.

"Alright, now it’s your turn," Dugu Qianye said, looking at Cang Jin. She knew that someone as sinister as him would not succumb without a fight.

Seeing his two Divine Beasts so suppressively defeated, Cang Jin’s heart was ablaze with anger. Hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, he slowly concentrated a Phantom Power Sphere in the palm of his hand, growing larger and larger until it formed 10 steel knives in front of his chest, each one looking exceedingly sharp.

Dugu Qianye glanced over and knew that he had mastered a metal-attributed Phantom Technique. It must be said that metal and fire attributes possess the strongest attack power and are the most coveted by Phantom Masters.

Dugu Qianye also quickly condensed Phantom Power, gathering it in the air into a Fire Dragon. Perhaps influenced by the dragon totem of her previous life, the Fire Dragon she formed bore a resemblance to the Chinese dragon. After taking shape, the Fire Dragon flew towards Cang Jin, meeting his formed steel sabre mid-flight. The Fire Dragon seemed to have its own Spiritual Intelligence, swallowing the steel sabre whole. The sabre slowly melted within the Fire Dragon’s belly and disappeared.

This was the first time the crowd had witnessed Dugu Qianye use Phantom Power, and furthermore, a Phantom Technique. As they saw the Fire Dragon melt the steel sabre, they were all dumbfounded. That was a full-powered strike from someone at the peak of the Phantom King level, easily neutralized just like that.

The Fire Dragon, after "digesting" the steel sabre, didn’t dissipate but continued flying towards Cang Jin. In the moment of impact, Cang Jin activated the Phantom Device protecting his body, warding off the strike. Nevertheless, Dugu Qianye didn’t give him time to counterattack. Using the Ethereal Step Technique, she rapidly approached him and struck his chest with a palm. The Phantom Device was effective against attacks of Phantom Power and Sword Qi but not so much against physical blows; Cang Jin was sent staggering back several steps.

Dugu Qianye pressed on, seizing Cang Jin’s left hand, then executed a beautiful shoulder throw, slamming him hard onto the ground. As she stood over him, she lifted her foot, aiming to kick him, but Cang Jin quickly recovered, rolling away from the spot and swiftly retreating. He also condensed a Phantom Power Sphere and threw it at Dugu Qianye. She didn’t dodge; instead, she rapidly created a defensive shield around herself and faced it head on.

"Bang," the Phantom Power Sphere shattered, and Dugu Qianye approached Cang Jin, swinging a thunderous kick. Initially aiming for his abdomen, she abruptly redirected her kick to his waist upon seeing his fearless gaze, sending him flying out of the ring.

"Woah!"

The crowd gasped. The top prodigy of Cangqiong, a 24-year-old at the peak of the Phantom King level, was just kicked off the stage like that. The shock was immense. Before, when people thought Dugu Qianye would win, it was because she had powerful Divine Beasts. But what they saw now was her true strength. Even a Phantom King Peak couldn’t last more than three moves against her; how powerful was she really?!

"Platform One, Dugu Qianye is victorious."

"Oh yeah, the boss won!"

Sun Kui shouted excitedly, with the others from Mors growing excited as well. They hadn’t seen their boss fight before, but they knew she was the strongest!

Standing below the stage, Cang Jin looked up at Dugu Qianye. He hadn’t expected her to be so strong; he himself had reached the peak of the Phantom King level and still was no match. He had clearly sensed her killing intent on the stage; that kick was meant to cripple him, wasn’t it, just like what she did to Liu Xing? But why did she merely kick him off in the end? For the first time, his normally ruthless eyes were shrouded in doubts.

Recalling his Divine Beasts and letting them return to the Phantom Beast Space to heal, Cang Jin took another look at Dugu Qianye before turning to leave.

The final results were announced, with Dugu Qianye in first place, Cang Jin in second, Dan Jingtian in third, Lin Feng fourth, and Mo Ziqing fifth.

The results of the Beast Tamer competition followed shortly, with Glei Empire in first place, having tamed two low-level Holy Beasts; Mors Empire second, having tamed one low-level Holy Beast and one Advance Level Spiritual Beast; Gabina Empire came in third, having tamed two Spiritual Beasts; Cangqiong was fourth, having tamed two Spiritual Beasts, though of the lowest rank.

With all competition results declared, Mors Empire claimed first place, far surpassing Glei Empire in second. Cangqiong Empire was third, and Gabina fourth.

Before the final scores were announced, His Majesty Cangqiong bid farewell to the Divine Temple’s Saint Heir, left the officials behind, and returned to his private chambers with a darkened expression. Seeing their sovereign depart, the chief judge had no choice but to take the stage himself and announce the final results. As soon as they were revealed, the entire venue erupted in surprise. The first place turned out to be Mors Empire, the nation that had languished at the bottom for hundreds of years!

"Now, please welcome the top three of each competition category to the stage to receive their awards. We call upon the contestants of the solo combat division."
