Chapter 38
Some people in the arena couldn’t help but sigh at how Kong Rui had encountered such a powerful opponent the moment she appeared.
“It wasn’t easy for the Li family’s little girl to regain her limelight, but she’s actually going to end up in such a miserable state!”
“This is not a battle of the same level. There’s nothing to see!”
“The Li family will probably regret it this time! They might as well let the princess represent the Li family in battle!”
“I heard that the Li family originally decided to let the princess fight. Who knew that such a little girl would replace her?!”
“If the princess were to fight, how could the Lightning Leopard be a match against the phoenix?!”
Discussions sounded. Wen Qiong sneered.
The Li family’s patriarch couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.
This girl was in the limelight yesterday. If not for her sudden increase in cultivation level and the ancient divine beast, the griffin, he wouldn’t have let her fight!
They were screwed now! She would probably be defeated by the Lei family the moment she appeared. This time, the Li family would be utterly humiliated!
The more he thought about it, the more vexed he became. He subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Queen and the Princess.
As expected, he saw the disdain in the queen’s eyes at a glance.
The Li family’s patriarch let out a long sigh.
He began to plan how to ease her relationship with the queen.
The Patriarch had already made up his mind to return home in defeat, but Kong Rui was calmly sizing up the Lightning Leopard in front of her.
“Is this an evolved spirit beast?” Kong Rui’s eyes lit up.
This was the first time she had seen an evolved spirit beast.
Previously, at most, those spirit beasts had grown to the adult stage. Evolution was really rare!
Little Lion said in Kong Rui’s ear impatiently, “Master, don’t worry. As long as I transform into an adult, even if it evolves another level, I can still tear it apart!”
Kong Rui shook her head. “Don’t underestimate the enemy!”
Little Lion pursed its lips. “Alright!”
“Don’t go overboard. Just teach it a lesson!” Kong Rui instructed again.
Although Little Lion was unwilling, it could only nod in agreement.
Spiritual beasts were divided into three levels: ordinary, rare, and ancient spiritual beasts.
Among these three levels, each level was divided into nine levels.
When ordinary spirit beasts were domesticated to the ninth level, they could evolve through breakthroughs.
As for the level of the evolved spirit beast, it depended on the spirit beast’s own potential and its owner’s ability.
Rare spirit beasts were superior to ordinary spirit beasts in terms of talent. Rare spirit beasts that had just been tamed could already reach the level seven or eight of ordinary spirit beasts.
Before the Lightning Leopard evolved, it was only an ordinary carnivorous spirit beast, the Gold Leopard. Although its potential was above average, it was only an ordinary spirit beast.
In front of an ancient spirit beast like the griffin, there was a huge difference in level!
However, Little Lion had already transformed into the Blazing Flame Eagle. In theory, it was one level lower than the Lightning Leopard.
The Lightning Leopard spat out a mouthful of hot air at the Blazing Flame Eagle’s face.
Such a provocative action angered the Blazing Flame Eagle.
“Go!” Kong Rui didn’t stop it. The Blazing Flame Eagle let out a long cry and charged towards the Lightning Leopard.
Its sharp eagle beak pecked at the Lightning Leopard’s head.
The Lightning Leopard naturally refused to show weakness. It roared and opened its mouth to bite.
For a moment, the eagle and leopard kept tearing at each other in midair.
To everyone’s surprise, although the Blazing Flame Eagle’s level was much lower than the Lightning Leopard’s, its strength wasn’t inferior at all.
It was even faster than the Lightning Leopard!
Not to mention the onlookers, even the Lei family’s elders couldn’t help but exclaim.
“How is this fellow an ordinary spirit beast? It’s no different from an evolved Lightning Leopard!” Elder Lei stared at the swift and fierce Blazing Flame Eagle and couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
Lei Aotian naturally noticed that his spirit beast didn’t show any advantage in battle.
He frowned and was somewhat dissatisfied with the situation.
“Trash!” Lei Aotian shouted angrily as the lightning dagger in his hand suddenly flew towards the back of the Lightning Leopard.
The Lightning Leopard let out a shrill cry as a bloody wound appeared on its back.
