Chapter 183 – The Chimera after Evolution
Li Qian Xun met Su Yang in the final set of the third round. The former had already sustained heavy injuries in the morning round, and now that he was faced with a strong opponent in Su Yang, he ended up losing the battle; his second loss for the tournament.
Since Li Qian Xun was no longer in contention for a rank with Mo Nan and Jing Feng after his second defeat, the Quinyang Sect’s party got even merrier.
“Well, we must have a proper party after we return to the our hotel. And then we’ll have a proper rest tomorrow so we can prepare for day after’s battles.” Luo Xiao Tian stated.
“Yes!” The Quinyang Sect delegation seemed very excited.
Luo Xiao Tian’s change in demeanor was evidently displaying that the Sect hadn’t anticipated such amazing results.
Firstly, four disciples from the Quinyang Sect had managed to enter the final round; then out of the these four, three disciples had done exceptionally well with Bi Fan finishing the round undefeated, while Jing Feng and Mo Nan had only lost one match each.
Out of the twenty eight disciples who had been selected to participate in the third round, only two men had remained undefeated throughout the tournament, while there were five men who were tied for the third spot; namely, Mo Nan, Jing Feng, Wang Feng, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu and the eastern aristocracy’s Blue Dragon.
The Quinyang Sect was already guaranteed three spots out of the top seven, which could be described as a very impressive feat.
The Quinyang Sect’s delegation was walking towards the exit when they bumped into the Tian Shui and the City Sect delegations.
The City Sect’s steward Wang Yun flashed a big smile as he came over: “Luo Xiao Tian, many congratulations to you on getting such amazing results!”
“Thank you! It was just good luck, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to get such good results.” Luo Xiao Tian humbly replied.
“Luo Xiao Tian, being so modest is very unlike you.” Hong Fei Hu laughed.
Wang Yun said: “You’re Bi Fan, right? You’re really powerful.”
“Bi Fan salutes the masters!” Bi Fan greeted his elders respectfully.
“Bi Fan, do you think you can beat Wu Ji Xuan?” Wang Yun asked.
Bi Fan didn’t know how to answer the question, and was left feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Wu Ji Xuan is quite strong, but Bi Fan can match him; however, the final outcome will depend on the circumstances at hand.” Ling Xin Ya quickly intervened to help Bi Fan out of the awkward situation.
“Yes, ah, but I hope that Bi Fan beats Wu Ji Xuan. The Wu Ji Sect is getting more and more aggressive and arrogant; we must suppress their attitude.” Wang Yun said.
“Of course; we also want to win.” Ling Xin Ya replied in agreement.
Soon, the Ba Gua Sect delegation came down from their dressing room, looking visibly upset over their results.
Since the Quinyang Sect had done exceptionally well in the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon list, it would be even more difficult for them to replace the Quinyang Sect in the top-five rankings.
The Ba Gua Sect disciples came face to face with the Quinyang Sect’s delegation, but didn’t have anything to say this time.
“Luo Xiao Tian, wait and see, we’ll beat the Quinyang Sect sooner or later.” The Ba Gua Sect elder stated.
“Yes, well, the Ba Gua Sect doesn’t have what it takes; and the Quinyang Sect is always ready to face a challenge.” Luo Xiao Tian bragged unashamedly.
“Humph!” The Ba Gua Sect delegation walked out of the Arena.
Luo Xiao Tian, Ling Xin Ya, Wang Yun, Hong Fei Hu chatted for a while, and then left with their respective delegations.
Once the Quinyang Sect returned back to their inn, they started to celebrate.
“I’ll go upstairs and practice.” Bi Fan wanted to return to his room in order to recall the memories of the martial skills that he had seen earlier during the contest.
Jing Feng pulled Bi Fan back into the party, smiled and said: “Brother Bi Fan, you’re the star of the day, so we’re not letting you go anywhere tonight.”
“That true! In fact, we’re going to party all night, which really shouldn’t be a problem for you since you’re accustomed to sleepless nights anyway.” Mo Nan also started dragging Bi Fan back to the party.
Bi Fan didn’t really have a choice now: “Well, we’ll celebrate then!”
While all the Quinyang Sect disciples were busy drinking in celebration, Luo Sheng and Luo Xiong were drinking to drown their sorrows.
“Brother, you see… Miss Yan Yu Si and Bi Fan are coming closer. If things don’t change soon, then you’ll miss your chance.” Luo Sheng narrated in an undertone.
Luo Xiong said: “You think that Bi Fan can match me?”
“Brother, I’m just telling you to be cautious; Bi Fan is getting better with every passing day.” Luo Sheng said: “So I’d say that it’s best to take advantage of the situation while he’s still young.”
Luo Xiong was already contemplating schemes at this point.
“Brother, if Bi Fan wins the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon List, then Miss Yan Yu Si will certainly start to fancy him even more. I think we should eliminate him before he becomes an even bigger problem.” Luo Sheng continued to fan the flame.
“Bi Fan might be good, but Wu Ji Xuan is no average person.” Luo Xiong narrated.
“Brother, Bi Fan is a genius as well; how could you explain his excellent results so far?” Luo Sheng continued to add more insult to the injury.
“Shut up; let me do the thinking.” Luo Xiong seemed too lost in his schemes at this point.
Luo Xiong was constantly eyeing the Mo Nan, Jing Feng, Bi Fan and Yan Yu Si, who were laughing and talking some distance away from him.
“Bi Fan, wait and see; I’ll make you suffer crushing defeats in the future, and then Miss Yan Yu Si wouldn’t even want to look at your face.”
Luo Xiong gritted his teeth as he finally decided to take on Bi Fan.
Bi Fan suddenly felt a chill running down his spine, but couldn’t identify the reason.
Everyone continued to celebrate late into the night hours, and then eventually returned to their rooms for some rest.
After Bi Fan returned to his room, he quickly started replaying the memories of the day, and the started restoring his internal energy.
Then, he started practicing ‘The Fire and Ice Burst’ and then the ‘Blood Devil’ law; which had now become his daily routine.
However, Bi Fan didn’t spend a lot of time in his practice tonight since he had started fairly late to begin with.
It was already early morning hours when Bi Fan decided to bring out the Chimera.
The Chimera had been inside the pet belt for a very long time now, so he was obviously quite excited to finally come out of the enclosure.
“Chimera, keep your volume down okay… do not disturb the others.” Bi Fan said in a low voice.
The Chimera’s body had seen a big change after his evolution and was now almost thirty meters in length and five meters in height. But more importantly, the Chimera’s body was now adorned with scales.
These closely packed thumb-sized scales covered his entire body, and it was quite obvious that they were exceptionally strong in defensive terms.
Moreover, the Chimera’s tail was now much longer than before, and was covered with small scales of its own. These scales however, exuded a faint greenish-blue light, which meant that the Chimera’s barbed tail was now far more toxic than before.
The Chimera had transformed into a complete fighting machine after its evolution and Bi Fan was obviously quite happy with its progress.
Since the Chimera had successfully evolved and woken up just before the final battle, Bi Fan was even more confident of his victory now.
“Chimera, you’re simply amazing!”
“Humm….” The Chimera held its head high as it produced a low-pitched sound.
“Oh, and now you’re bragging ah?” Bi Fan started laughing.
Bi Fan started to stroke the Chimera’s scales and it was obvious that Bi Fan’s was growing more and more emotionally attached to the Chimera now.
The Chimera wasn’t very strong at the time when Bi Fan had first tamed it; but as time progressed, the Chimera managed to swallow two nucleuses and had successfully evolved twice; it had come a long way now.
At present, the Chimera was already strong enough to kill off an Abyss Dragon in a one-on-one combat.
Bi Fan had been watching and studying the understanding that the other participants had with their beast pets, and couldn’t help but envy them.
Although the Chimera was far stronger than the pets that Bi Fan had seen in the tournament so far, their personal understanding wasn’t as good as their counterparts. However, Bi Fan and the Chimera had some time at hand before their fight against Wu Ji Xuan, and they decided to use this time to build an understanding in combat.
They practiced until dawn, but since Bi Fan’s room wasn’t big enough for the Chimera to move unrestrained, they weren’t able to get much out of their training session.
Bi Fan incorporated the Chimera back into the pet belt at dawn, since he didn’t wish to expose his pet’s identity just yet.
