Astral Pet Store

Chapter 374 Final Result

Chapter 374 Final Result

The titled battle pet warrior from the government was relieved after hearing Su Ping agree. He immediately told the working staff leader to get a brand-new device.

The leader in Western attire and leather shoes called his team to get the device without delay.

While people were waiting for the device to get there, things became a bit quieter and strange in the venue.

The previously stunned and speechless audience began whispering amongst themselves.

The match between Yan Bingyue and Su Lingyue had been stopped because of Su Ping’s intervention. But according to the situation before the intervention, Su Lingyue had lost. That was not what people were concerned about right then, because everyone’s attention was on Su Ping. They were eager to find out the cause of that result, whether it was a device failure or other reasons.

Things like, whether Su Ping used a secret way to hide his strength.

Yet, no one had heard of such a secret skill. After all, if such skills did exist, such devices and tests should have been eliminated and reissued with improvements a long time before. Otherwise, the test would have been unfair.

“Lady Yan, allow me.”

Yan Bingyue’s maid Xiao Ju had found her way to Yan Bingyue.

“Okay.” Yan Bingyue nodded. The ice on her face would only melt a bit when she talked to her maid.

Xiao Ju put her hand over Yan Bingyue’s wrist at once. Astral powers seeped out from Xiao Ju’s hand. Yan Bingyue’s severed wrist began to produce scar tissue and heal.

Yin Fengxiao looked at Yan Bingyue’s wound. “Lady Yan, my fault cannot even be atoned with death!” he said, looking sullen.

Yan Bingyue blinked. “Uncle Yin, it is okay. Let’s deal with this matter first.”

Yin Fengxiao nodded to her and then turned around and glared at the young man.

In less than ten minutes, the new device had been delivered to the venue.

Upon its arrival, the titled battle pet warrior from the government breathed a sigh of relief. While standing behind Su Ping, he would feel immense pressure and shortness of breath. Besides, he and Su Ping were not on familiar terms. He would not dare initiate any conversation, and the atmosphere between them had become embarrassing and dull.

“Mr. Su, it is finally here,” the man said to Su Ping with a smile. At the same time, he waved his hand to signal the working staff to get the device up to the stage.

Su Ping stayed calm as a new device was unpacked in front of his eyes. The tape was removed and then the box. The workers helped him wear the device.

The working staff that helped put on the device said to Su Ping respectfully, “Sir, please release astral powers.”

Su Ping looked at the man; he unleashed a breeze of astral powers, just as before.

Soon, the display lights on the device began to turn on.

Everyone watched with unblinking eyes.

The lights flickered and more and more were turned on. Soon the sixth dial was lit up and no more. The color began to change and stopped at orange.

That was it. This was the final result.

The man from the government was visibly dumbfounded.

Standing in the distance, Yin Fengxiao and Zhao Wuji stood just like logs.

Behind them, Yan Bingyue’s expressions changed and disbelief filled her eyes.

They could claim that the device was broken on the first attempt. But the same claim couldn’t be used a second time!

That was to say, this young man was indeed at the intermediate position of the sixth rank. They could not believe that!

That was completely unlikely!

The family heads and elders were all transfixed.

Of the Top 5, Xu Kuang and Qin Shaotian gazed with their mouths ajar, astonishment plastered on their faces.

The second test yielded the same result. This time, they could not convince themselves that the device was broken.

As such, the result was true!

But how unimaginably queer that was!

Su Ping was so powerful when he was merely at the intermediate position of the sixth rank. Was he even a human being?

“No way!!”

Zhao Wuji shouted out all of a sudden with fury occupying his eyes. He screamed, “The device must have something wrong. Or you definitely messed up with the device. You cannot be at the sixth rank!”

He would never believe the result, the fact that the young man who had punched a hole in the seal was a sixth-rank battle pet warrior!

As Zhao Wuji was screaming, standing next to him, Yin Fengxiao gradually controlled his surprise. There was a strange look in his eyes but he said nothing.

Zhao Wuji’s shout pulled the man from the government back to the present. To be frank, his mind was in a mess. He never expected that the result would be the same. The test device was very expensive, and the price was in the seven figures.

It was unlikely that such a valuable device would make a mistake, let alone two making the same mistake!

Not to mention the fact that the device was brand-new and just unpacked.

Su Ping cast a glare at Zhao Wuji who was still screaming, eyeing him as if the man were an inanimate object. But Su Ping didn’t throw a temper right away. He said to the man from the government. “Do you need to do it again?”

The man stared at Su Ping blankly.

Again?

What if the result would still be the same if they got another device? The man thought. All of a sudden, an idea came to mind. He squeezed a smile and proposed, “Mr. Su, please forgive me but I want to use the two devices to test the other participants. If their results are accurate, then it will be proof that the devices are not broken and Mr. Su, your results are right.” Su Ping looked at him from the corner of his eye and nodded.

The man let out a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and said to Qin Shaotian and to the others at the Top 5’s seats. “Come here for a moment.”

Xu Kuang and Qin Shaotian looked at each other. They had all heard what the man from the government said to Su Ping. After all, they weren’t civilians and were able to hear the conversation across that short distance.

Huh, they became the guinea pigs.

Xu Kuang ran onto the stage without hesitation. Qin Shaotian frowned for a second but decided to follow him.

Ye Longtian and Mu Yuanshou went after them while still in a complicated mood.

Soon, the four had arrived.

The man from the government ordered, “Test them one by one.” He turned to the audience and appeared to be looking for someone. Soon, he picked out several people. He said something to the working staff and asked them to invite those people to go up to the stage. Soon, apart from Xu Kuang and the others, three more people went to the stage; all were young men in their twenties.

At the moment, the workers were performing the tests on Xu Kuang and the others.

Starting from Xu Kuang and Qin Shaotian, those invited onto the stage were tested one by one. To everyone’s surprise, Xu Kuang was merely at the lower position of the sixth rank!

Qin Shaotian was at the peak of the sixth rank and so were Ye Longtian and Mu Yuanshou!

The results were a truthful reflection of their ranks. The four had done their tests and they turned their sights to Su Ping in astonishment.

Seeing the four’s results, the man from the government wore a grave expression. He then asked the worker to test the three from the audience.

The results varied from the third rank to the fourth rank.

After the test was done, the man from the government and Zhao Wuji wore different expressions. Behind Zhao Wuji, Yan Bingyue had already seen the results as well. She looked pale.

“This...”

The man from the government took a deep breath. The results were within his expectation. The three whom he had picked out randomly from the audience were at low ranks and they couldn’t have fooled him. The device proved that he was right.

That was to say, the device was working just fine.

“Mr. Su...” the man from the government worked up the courage and asked Su Ping, “Could you please do it again?” Su Ping was surprised how the man would not give up. Although unhappy, Su Ping raised his hand and allowed the workers to proceed with the test.

But that would be the last time he cooperated.

His patience was limited, even when the man was from the government.

Soon, the result came out.

... Just as before, the reading was at the intermediate position of the sixth rank!

Seeing that result, everyone fell silent.

Xu Kuang, Qin Shaotian, who had just taken the test, eyed Su Ping as if he were a monster.

This guy was indeed at the intermediate position of the sixth rank?!

They felt their brains were buzzing and about to explode. In their respective families, they were the blessed talents and they could easily defeat others of the same rank. But this guy present was horrifying. Talent was not enough to describe him. He was a monster who did not belong to the human race!

The titled battle pet warrior from the government stared at the result with a dull look on his face. At the moment, he no longer had any doubts in regards to the device. It was fine. The result was true.

This young man was at the intermediate position of the sixth rank!

The family heads and elders of the major families wore complicated expressions. Halfway through the tests, they had already known what the result would be. They just didn’t know what to say at the moment.

A sixth-rank battle pet warrior had been able to break the seal. Was such a person even real?

Not even the past champions of previous Elite Leagues had been able to exhibit a force as horrifying as Su Ping’s!

Qin Duhuang squinted his eyes. There was no telling what he was thinking. Qin Shuhai remained in complete shock. He remembered how he and Su Ping would call each other brothers and how he treated Su Ping as an equal, another titled battle pet warrior colleague. It turned out that this young man was merely at the intermediate position of the sixth rank, not even an advanced battle pet warrior!

The number of sixth-rank battle pet warriors was not countless but was huge enough. They could not be regarded as the upper-class elite.

“That is to say, in the Mysterious Realm...”

Qin Shuhai’s heart was pounding. He recalled that, in the Mysterious Realm, he would see Su Ping come and go many times. Every time Su Ping returned, he would bring back some beast cores of ninth-rank beasts. Apart from his first trip, Su Ping would work solo. Clearly, Su Ping was the one that killed the beasts and harvested the cores.

A sixth-rank battle pet warrior had gone to the dangerous Mysterious Realm and hunted down ninth-rank beasts. Really?!

On the stage.

Zhao Wuji still found it unacceptable.

When he was trying to say something, he heard a chuckle that came from Yin Fengxiao who was standing next to him.

Yin Fengxiao’s chuckle stood out in this nervous environment. Everyone turned to him, confused; why would an old man openly laugh out loud, one who was clearly hostile to Su Ping as it laughed out.

“If the device is okay, then the explanation is simple.”

Coldness resumed on Yin Fengxiao’s face. “Either the setting of the seal is wrong and energy is not supplied to the fullest so that he was able to crack it by chance, or he used some secret ways to hide his true rank. Which one do you think it is?”

The others were surprised by his words.

But soon, someone near the stage gave a reply. It was Zhou Tianlin, family head of the Zhou family!

“It cannot be the seal’s problem!” Zhou Tianlin pointed out.

Yin Feingxiao was taken aback by how sure Zhou Tianlin sounded. Since Yin Fengxiao never regarded this family head as important, he frowned. “What do you mean?” Zhou Tianlin said nothing; he merely pointed toward the ground by the stage, right under the seal.
