A day later.
When Chi Mu returned to the manor riding a golden lion and leading seven silver wolf battle puppets, having shown off to his heart's content, he discovered that Yue Yang and Young Master Mingzhu were studying an entirely new puppet beast rather than the battle puppets originally planned. This newly developed puppet beast could likewise reach the peak of Gold rank.
And there was more than one.
Two giant golden spider puppets, brilliantly colored and similar yet distinct in form, prowled continuously across the ground. Following Yue Yang's commands, they repeatedly performed all sorts of actions: crawling, stopping, lurking, leaping, accelerating, attacking, evading, and more. The golden spider puppets' agility left Chi Mu drooling. What kind of puppet beasts were these?

The only thing Chi Mu could not understand was why the bellies of these Gold-rank spider puppets had to be so huge.
Compared to real spiders,
these spider puppets' bellies were more than ten times larger.

In short, those giant bellies that looked utterly useless were affecting their combat strength... Although Chi Mu had the hidden trait of being a somewhat idiotic young man, he was, after all, one of the Light Alliance's Four Young Masters. His intelligence was there for all to see.
