In terms of top combat power, no Pet Beast can face the Blazing Soul Flame Monarch directly. In terms of overall strength, the number of Wandering Fire Ash Spirit is even larger, making it hard for a group of Beastmasters to contend.
This was almost a dead-end situation.
When the question arose, the Beastmasters present at the scene began to speak out, all talking at the same time, as if recounting the events was a matter of great pride.
"It was the Flame Cloud Falcon!"
"It was Advisor Chen!"
"No, no, no, it was Advisor Chen’s Flame Cloud Falcon that defeated the Blazing Soul Flame Monarch!"
The reactions of the crowd varied, with some shaking their heads in doubt, some nodding in admiration, and others remaining skeptical.
Until someone suddenly shouted: "The team Advisor Chen belongs to is the first place in this competition, scoring a full one or two hundred points more than the second place. Doesn’t that prove something?"
"The second place was the team of Mulate and that foreign Beastmaster. Oh, right, that foreign Beastmaster was Advisor Chen’s defeated opponent before; Advisor Chen was the champion, he was the runner-up."
As soon as this was said, no one continued to doubt the authenticity of this event.
Battle records can lie, but point rankings don’t.
Subsequently, more witnesses from the scene joined this discussion, recounting and perfecting the detailed process of the shocking confrontation yesterday, as if witnessing this duel firsthand was a very fortunate and proud thing.
In the end, a Beastmaster summarized: "In short, Advisor Chen’s strength has surpassed Mulate by a whole level; he is undoubtedly one of the strongest Beastmasters in the entire Donghuang."
"And such a Beastmaster is now in Flame Mountain."
With this, everyone started discussing endlessly.
"I want to spar with Advisor Chen’s Flame Cloud Falcon and test the strength of Donghuang’s top-tier Beastmasters."
"Try and die."
"Without Advisor Chen, this competition would probably end without a result."
Suddenly, a figure emerged from the office, causing the previously heated discussion to quiet down instantly, as everyone looked forward with surprise: "Chairman Maimaiti!"
Chairman Maimaiti smiled, greeted everyone with a wave.
In an instant, thunderous applause broke out.
Fire State is deep inland; neither its location nor economic development is particularly good, but following the Spiritual Energy Revival, Chairman Maimaiti implemented a series of policies greatly beneficial to Beastmasters, with Beastmaster activities and competitions springing up continuously, enhancing the overall level of Beastmasters in Fire State favorably, steadily improving.
Therefore, Chairman Maimaiti is deeply loved and supported by the Beastmasters of Fire State.
But clearly, Chairman Maimaiti’s special arrival this time wasn’t for the enthusiastic Beastmasters; he looked towards Flame Mountain, filled with anticipation.
Although he couldn’t recruit Advisor Chen into the Fire State Beastmaster Association, if he managed to build a good relationship with him, he could solicit help for difficult problems in the future.
Time gradually passed,
The number of Beastmasters returning to the Beastmaster Office increased, gathering together, waiting for the distribution of competition rewards.
"Why hasn’t Advisor Chen returned yet?"
"When I left this morning, they were still beneath Flame Mountain, it will take some time to return."
At the moment the words were finished, a small bright spot gradually appeared on the horizon, piercing the dark night sky, rapidly approaching the office.
The small bright spot grew larger and brighter, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
Someone raised their gaze and shouted in surprise: "What is that?"
Someone frowned in deep thought: "Some kind of Pet Beast?"
Amidst the commotion, the brilliant little bright spot gradually came into view, and everyone realized it wasn’t a small bright spot but a large figure surging with golden flames all over, its tail feathers trailing a rainbow-colored light across the sky, soon disappearing into invisibility.
"It’s a Pet Beast I’ve never seen before!"
Accompanied by an exclamation, everyone simultaneously looked up, sensing the terrifying aura emitted by this massive figure even from afar, making all Pet Beasts fall silent.
Compared to Beastmasters, Pet Beasts have sharper and deeper perception of auras.
A Beastmaster noticed the odd behavior of the Pet Beasts, their pupils constricted, speaking without thinking: "Quickly protect the Chairman, it might be a wild Pet Beast launching an attack!"
The words landed, causing chaos for a moment.
Some Beastmasters still raised their heads, seemingly stunned in place; some Beastmasters led their Pet Beasts away from the crowd, looking for a safe place to avoid potential danger; some Beastmasters rushed towards Chairman Maimaiti, ready to escort him; some Beastmasters woke their intimidated Pet Beasts, assuming a fighting stance.
The scene was chaotic, but Chairman Maimaiti remained unmoved, his aged eyes gazing into the sky. When the elegant and noble figure gradually entered his vision, he suddenly spoke, his voice deep and steady: "There’s a person sitting on the Pet Beast’s back."
Chairman Maimaiti’s voice acted like a sedative, calming all present Beastmasters, who began to look up, and as this mysterious Pet Beast drew closer, they could clearly see the figure on its back.
Indeed, there’s a person.
Suddenly, everyone felt relieved.
Since there’s a person on the Pet Beast’s back, it couldn’t possibly launch an attack.
Wait.
A person?
Someone suddenly raised their head, filled with disbelief.
It’s not unusual for Pet Beasts to fly, and there are a few Pet Beasts capable of carrying a person while flying.
After all, some Pet Beasts are born large and strong-winged, naturally suited for carrying people in flight, so businesses have enlisted these large flying Pet Beasts to undertake passenger flight services.
But some particularly business-minded individuals quickly discovered another opportunity: passenger flights usually accommodate only one person at a time, which, while stable income-wise, isn’t fast. Is there a way to dramatically increase income while maintaining stability?
