The Finals Begin
After seeing You Ziye and Wu Haidong off, Qin Zhuang went back to cultivate as well. He wanted to make the most of his time and sharpen his combat skills.
Zheng Shi'an sat in a chair, sipping tea as he asked, "Big brother, the finals start in just three days. Will Xiao Lian make it back in time?"
Bi Fan smiled and shook his head. "I don't know. But even if he does come back, I can't count on him to help me win this fight."
"But if what they said is true and Bai Shan has a griffin at the Chaos Lord level, then it'll be really difficult without a Chaos Spirit Beast!"
Bi Fan nodded. "I know."
Zheng Shi'an couldn't help offering in a low voice, "Big brother, why not have Little Purple fight alongside you?"
"If Bai Shan doesn't summon the griffin, then we won't call on Little Purple either. But if he does, even if Xiao Lian hasn't returned, at least we'll have a shot at winning!"
Dragon Sable couldn't resist clapping its paws. "Exactly! That's a great idea! Master, why not consider it?"
Bi Fan rubbed his nose. "But Little Purple made a soul contract with you. Would it be suitable for her to fight with me?"
Zheng Shi'an immediately summoned the Seven-Colored Purple Crystal Phoenix and asked with a grin, "Little Purple, are you willing to stand in for Xiao Lian and fight alongside big brother?"
It lifted its head happily, its narrow eyes brimming with joy, and nodded without a moment's hesitation. "Of course!"
Zheng Shi'an grinned. "See, big brother? She's willing. What's there to hesitate about?"
Bi Fan gave a wry smile and nodded. "All right. We'll go with that for now and adapt when the time comes."
