Chapter 1181: Chapter 567: Four-Treasure Scale Cow! Chapter 1181: Chapter 567: Four-Treasure Scale Cow! Nearly three months had passed since Yu Chengleiâs last match at Inch Blade Club.
It was highly likely that Yu Chengleiâs Reverse Feather King Snake had gained some improvements!
The opponent arranged for the Peach Wood Teamâs previous exhibition match was only at the peak of the Platinum Tier. How could the opponentâs ranking suddenly jump up a whole level!?
If Fang Mu hadnât just displayed Diamond Level Beast Masterâs strength, the Battle Network officialsâ arrangement of such an opponent for the Peach Wood Team would have been cursed to the heavens!
Even though Fang Muâs Sea Flame Twins had shown Diamond Level Beast Masterâs strength, the audience on-site and in various livestream rooms still questioned the Battle Network officialsâ arrangement.
[Whatâs the deal? Thereâs almost a double age difference between the opponents, who arranges matches like this!? How is the Peach Wood Team supposed to fight?]
[Hey, please focus on the main point, okay? What does age have to do with anything? There have been exhibition matches where the age difference between opponents was more than fourfold! Shouldnât the focus be that the opponent arranged by the Battle Network is too strong? This is clearly an attempt to prevent the Peach Wood Team from setting new Battle Network records!]
[Ugh, seriously speechless! This Half-Elf from Jianmu has a Diamond Phase Level One strength. Itâs obvious that there has been some trick to boost the Guardian Beastâs ranking, jumping a whole major tier. How can they arrange an opponent with major competition experience like this? How are we supposed to fight that?]
[Exactly! Itâs not a solo duel, where does Hu Tao have a Diamond Level Guardian Beast? Hu Taoâs strongest Guardian Beast is only at the Golden Stage. In this duel, Hu Tao basically has no chance of participating.]
Yu Chenglei and Zhao Peng, even as they stood in the Arena, couldnât help but feel somewhat dazed.
They didnât understand how such a prized opportunity, eagerly vied for by major clubs for their own merchant teams, had fallen into their laps.
Yu Chenglei and Zhao Peng were close friends, having previously served different teams.
Now that they were older, they had not been given the chance to stay on as coaches for their teams.
They planned to ride the wave of the Battle Networkâs doubles division and become streamers.
Both of their combat skills were capable of withstanding scrutiny and could guarantee a spectacular duel.
But livestreaming wasnât just about having enough fighting flair to gain popularity!
In terms of looks, neither Yu Chenglei nor Zhao Peng had any advantage.
Neither had the resources to hire a specialized team to package and promote themselves.
Luckily, the two were not dull-witted, thought quickly on their feet, and were good at communicating with the audience, which allowed them to barely accumulate some popularity.
However, the followers theyâd gained lately were not of use for nurturing their Guardian Beasts, let alone upgrading their Beasts from Epic Quality to Legendary Quality!
Yu Chengleiâs parents were both servant Beast Masters, who could afford to send Yu Chenglei to the Contemplation Hall only twice a year at most.
Yu Chenglei once had a very good opportunity. The reason he stayed at Inch Blade Club was because it promised to upgrade his main Guardian Beast, the Reverse Feather King Snake, to Epic Quality.
For that promise, Yu Chenglei committed to Inch Blade Club for ten years.
Zhao Peng spent years being used like a tool by the Grandmaster, called upon only when needed, otherwise left to guard the water cooler simply because of Zhao Pengâs very poor relationship with the Wind Moon Clubâs Bishop.
If it were not for the contract in Wind Moon Clubâs hands, Zhao Pengâs resources earned each month would just about cover the breach of contract fine.
Both were at a time when they needed opportunities most, and now, opportunity had come.
In the past few months, Yu Chenglei and Zhao Peng had been very busy and didnât know much about the Peach Wood Team.
Liu Wei rushed the arrangements for their exhibition match, leaving them with no time to learn about their opponent.
However, the atmosphere on the spot let Zhao Peng and Yu Chenglei know that something was amiss.
Their opponents, a boy and a girl, seemed to be no older than seventeen or eighteen at most.
Yu Chenglei and Zhao Peng thought to themselves that at such an age, even the top seed players from the most elite clubs would only be at the Two-Ray Star Beast Controller level.
Zhao Peng and Yu Chenglei exchanged glances and decided to summon their Guardian Beasts first.
However, they did not command their Guardian Beasts to attack, but allowed the opponents to make the first move instead.
That way, after participating in this exhibition match, they wouldnât have to endure too much public criticism.
While the post-duel buzz was guaranteed, neither wanted to take the route of infamy.
So that in future livestreams, they wouldnât be filled with doubts.
Yu Chenglei was the first to summon his main Guardian Beast, the Reverse Feather King Snake.
As Yu Chengleiâs spiritual power fluctuated, a robust serpent nearly fifteen meters in length appeared before him.
Upon appearing, the serpent immediately coiled itself up, raising its head high, flicking a dark tongue.
A pair of wings broader than its body length was covered in grey-green hard feathers.
These feathers emitted a mellow halo.
The two large eyes on the serpentâs head, like searchlights, focused on Fang Mu and Hu Tao.
Hu Tao, feeling the unrestrained might of the Diamond Level Beast up close, nearly stepped back.
Turning her gaze to Fang Mu, she realized that she was powerless to handle such a duel and had to rely on Fang Mu to confront it.
At that moment, Fang Muâs gaze had already settled on the Reverse Feather King Snake.
Fang Mu used the Innate Divine Ability of Foolâs Shadow, the [Eye of Omniscience], to check the data of the Reverse Feather King Snake.
[Beast Name]: Reverse Feather King Snake
[Beast Species]: Feathered Serpent/King Serpent Breed
