Chapter 488: 361: Abnormal-Level Youthful Expert
“There’s no other way, you guard the west, Qingqing you summon another battle pet, help guard the west together. Don’t summon your soul pets randomly, keep one for each person’s control, summon the third pet only if any special situation arises.” Team Leader Guo Zhan said.
“There’s no other way, Chu Chen kid, be careful!” Shan Jing said.
Chu Mu had already become accustomed to being treated in this way; he calmly jumped off Zhan Ye, let Zhan Ye squat next to the Demon Tree Warrior, and the Demon Tree Warrior stood in the west, facing the oncoming countless Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, which looked like a gray tide.
Breathing in the fishy smell of the scorpions, Chu Mu hung a line smile on his face. Counting carefully, excluding the ninth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, this wave should have at least a hundred eighth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. Killing them all could collect a large amount of venom.
With this thought in mind, Chu Mu wanted more Desert Mad Edge Scorpions to come. After all, he just needed to defend one side.
“Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp”
“Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp!
The sound of scorpions was like fierce fangs rubbing against each other, sounding very harsh. The four soul pet masters standing in the middle of the soul pets’ protection were all staring at this first wave of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions with serious expressions.
Guo Zhan’s two combat pets were both mainstream soul pets, one was the Ninth-Stage Horror Wolf, which had Chu Mu’s heart throbbing not long ago, and the other one was a Blood Beast with backward hooked spines all over its body!
Guo Zhan’s Ninth Rank Low-Grade Horror Wolf was clearly a peak commander, its combat power level was somewhat stronger than the Horror Wolves Chu Mu had encountered. In Chu Mu’s estimation, its strength should be comparable to that of a Ninth Rank intermediate level commander Horror Wolf.
The other Blood Beast with spines had reached the eighth rank, advanced stage, its combat power level should have reached the Quasi-Monarch level. It could surely kill commanders without any problem.
“Roar!
The Ninth-Stage Horror Wolf issued a threatening roar, its blood-red eyes stared at the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions in the front, its robust body slightly lowered, just like a blue stretched bowstring ready to strike!
“Kill!” Team leader Guo Zhan issued an order.
“Swoosh!!!!!!!” The Horror Wolf’s figure darted forward, causing a large wave of sand.
While the sand was still in the air, the Ninth-Stage Horror Wolf had already appeared in front of the eighth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. The blue figure elegantly swept past the three Desert Mad Edge Scorpions!
“PopPopPop”
Behind the Horror Wolf, a splash of fresh blood suddenly burst from the gray armor of those three Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. The place swept by the Horror Wolf’ cold light was a bright red!
“Gnash!!! Gnash!!! Gnash!!!”
The bodies of the three Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were divided into several sections!
“What a strong attack.” Chu Mu noticed Guo Zhan’s condition and showed an astonished expression on his face.
Instantly killing three eighth-rank Mad Edge Scorpions was something even Mo Ye would have difficulty achieving. The battle power of this Horror Wolf of Team Leader Guo Zhan was obviously nearing the quasi-monarch level. Once it crosses this threshold, its power would enhance substantially.
“Don’t be envious, our team leader is a well-known strong one in Soul Pet Palace. Place your attention on your own side. There are already ten eighth-rank Mad Edge Scorpions attacking your west side.” Qingqing said.
Chu Mu nodded but didn’t move his gaze, it landed on Guo Zhan’s Blood Beast.
The spiny Blood Beast wasn’t in a rush to join the fight. Many Desert Mad Edge Scorpions passed through the place attacked by the Horror Wolf and rushed towards the soul pets’ location, while the spiny Blood Beast merely stood there.
“Roar!
The spiny Blood Beast issued an angry roar, its body’s blood aura was being released madly. Facing the attack of two Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, it directly rammed them fiercely!
“Clang
The spiny thorn collided with the metal-like corners of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. The corners of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were like soil, easily shattered by the collision, they were completely unmatched.
“Rip! Along with the sweep of the spiny Blood Beast, the thick armor of the two Desert Mad Edge Scorpions was brutally ripped. Their flesh and blood flew all over the place immediately.
“The stages and levels are all in a floating phase, you still need to judge the opponent’s strength through direct battle. Now, Young Master may still not understand the limit of soul pets’ power. Once you ascend to a certain level, you will understand that power is actually very clear.” Fox Elder said.
Chu Mu nodded, and no longer paid attention to the battle involving Guo Zhan. He started to focus on his own soul pets.
The Demon Tree Warrior on the west side had already joined the battle. As a low-grade monarch, the Demon Tree Warrior’s combat power level was above the spiny Blood Beast. Despite its lower stage, the attacks of these Desert Mad Edge Scorpions might not be able to break through the Demon Tree Warrior’s powerful defense. Soon the roots of the Demon Tree Warrior pierced out like sharp swords from the soft sand, starting to strangle these ten Desert Mad Edge Scorpions!
Zhan Ye stood quietly next to the Demon Tree Warrior. Once a Desert Mad Edge Scorpion came close, Zhan Ye’s claw blade would mercilessly tear it into pieces!
Naturally, the strongest member of the team was team leader Guo Zhan. At first, Guo Zhan killed the most Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. However, as soon as Ninth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpions appeared, Guo Zhan’s Soul Pet had to confront these scorpions with more caution, putting some restrictions on its movements.
In two other directions, Shan Jing had summoned two Soul Pets, a Seven Star Horned Beast and a Storm Season Elf.
The Seven Star Horned Beast had a high defense, Shan Jing primarily commanded this Eighth-rank intermediate stage Peak Commander to hold the Northern front steadfastly.
The Storm Season Elf with a high rank of eight was also tirelessly releasing wind-based skills, inflicting damage on the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
This combination initially proved effective in stopping the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions’ attack, but as the scorpions started displaying more power, Shan Jing’s Seven Star Horned Beast struggled to withstand the assault of the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
Qingqing, the assistant, continued applying water-based healing spells on the Seven Star Horned Beast, helping it maintain its strength.
The situation with Li He on the other side was also worrisome. His Four-Winged Snake Demon’s movement became increasingly slow. Its dark red body further indicated that the snake demon had been severely poisoned by the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
“Li He, my Storm Spirit will cover you. Quickly pull your Four-Winged Snake Demon back! Otherwise, the poison will damage its internal organs!” Qingqing quickly noticed the increasingly difficult situation Li He was battling against.
“No need. Just focus on that kid’s position and make sure the west doesn’t get breached. Otherwise, we’ll be in even bigger trouble.” Li He spoke in a steady voice.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh
A dozen whirlwinds, each reaching a height of ten meters, suddenly appeared around the Four-Winged Snake Demon. The Desert Mad Edge Scorpions attacking the snake were swatted around by the whirlwinds until they felt dizzy and disoriented, losing track of their direction.
Realizing that the whirlwinds could only be Qingqing’s storm spirit, Li He raged, “Do you know how to be supportive at all? Weren’t you appointed to guard the west? Are you trying to create trouble for everyone?!”
“But… but… I don’t need to help at all on the western side.” Qingqing spoke softly in response, her mood deflated by the outburst.
“No need to help? That kid is about to die…”
Li He turned his head and glanced back.
“That’s impossible!” The very next moment, shocked disbelief filled Li He’s voice as he stared unmoving at the western battlefield!
A Blood Green Demon Tree Warrior was surrounded by Desert Mad Edge Scorpions scuttling all over the place, most of which were reduced to corpses!
At the sound of Li He’s astonished cry, Shan Jing and team leader Guo Zhan assumed that Chu Mu had encountered some mishap and quickly turned their heads.
However, their expressions soon mirrored Li He’s, filled with incredulity!
The Black War Tiger lay on the ground, coolly licking the blood from its claws. After fighting for so long, this Mo Ye appeared to have just entered the action!
“This… this…” Shan Jing was dumbfounded!
He and Li He had barely managed to hold their respective positions under the protection of two pets, and their Soul Pets were many ranks above the Demon Tree Warrior. It was inconceivable how that guy could guard so easily. However, not only did this western side seem to be defended by just a Demon Tree Warrior and a Seventh Rank 5th Stage Mo Ye, but they also managed to hold their ground effectively!
“How is it possible that his Demon Tree Warrior doesn’t have a single scratch on it!” Li He quickly noticed the Demon Tree Warrior, which appeared unscathed despite all the fighting.
Unless enhanced to the High-Level Monarch Rank, a Seventh-rank Demon Tree Warrior shouldn’t be able to withstand so many Desert Mad Edge Scorpions without sustaining a single scratch.
“His Demon Tree Warrior has mastered the Ran Wood Crystallization. Its defense is very high and it also possesses the ability to siphon blood. It can recover quickly after being injured.” Qingqing answered.
Qingqing had been keeping a close eye on Chu Mu. She had been anxious that Chu Mu would be overrun, but to her utter surprise, this somewhat younger warrior was incredibly powerful. He completely dominated the battlefield merely with a Demon Tree Warrior!
Qingqing was not an inexperienced female Soul Pet Trainer. She very well understood what it meant for a trainer to mold their Soul Pet to this level!
“Let’s change our positions. You take care of the west,” Chu Mu, accustomed to people’s astonished eyes, calmly spoke to Shan Jing as everyone stared at him.
“You are…” Shan Jing was still in shock.
There were certainly freakishly strong youths in World City, but only a handful had achieved so much at such a young age!
Such characters were rare, so when Shan Jing first noticed Chu Mu, he had only draw an estimation of Chu Mu’s power based on his age and Sixth Level Title. Who would have ever imagined that this youth was one of those freakishly powerful youngsters with a reputation that could command all of World City!
