"What a spirited wolf cub!"
Xiao Tian couldn't help but applaud the Blood Wolf King for fighting so fearlessly despite knowing he was no match for it.
The Blood Wolf King's attacks were fierce and extremely violent, each move aimed at killing, targeting the opponent's weaknesses.
However, the current King Level Big Red has such high stats that it completely overwhelms the Blood Wolf King.
Clang!
The Blood Wolf King's forepaws were completely broken off, and one forepaw was even torn apart, with blood gushing out as it collapsed to the ground.
The Blood Wolf King's eyes were filled with the Big Red, crimson figure of King Level being. Seeing the approaching cold light, it roared, "You can lead my people; you will be the new king!"
Pfft!
The Blood Wolf King's head was shattered, its King Level Big Red claws extremely sharp, and the layer of crimson-gold light runes were imbued with Geng Metal Sharp Qi, enhancing the damage's strength and armor penetration coefficients.
The Blood Wolf King's eyes dimmed rapidly. As King Level creature, it could have struggled a little longer, but it knew it was all in vain.
With a smile on its face, it looked at the King Level Big Red that killed it, its consciousness completely extinguished, and it perished.
Aww!
The Big Red roared, its howling filled with complex emotions.
The Blood Wolf surrounding the Idiot all knelt down and paid homage to the new king.
The Idiot was completely bewildered; why did it end like this?
The King Level Big Red, who had become the focus of attention, withdrew its claws and went to Xiao Tian.
Thank you, my friend!
It was originally supposed to address its master, but Xiao Tian instructed it through mental threads to change its form of address.
" Big Red, well done!" Xiao Tian laughed, leaped up, and landed on the back of the new Wolf King, Big Red. He petted the 'cat' for a while and then lay down contentedly.
Situ Le, Long Zaitian, and Evolver in Luo Cheng nearly suffered heart attacks.
That's incredibly audacious!
This night was destined to be a sleepless one for many in Luo Cheng! But for Xiao Tian, it was a beautiful night! He slept soundly!
Dawn is coming!
The trial of Life and Death Round has ended!
At the city gate of Luo Cheng, there were only twenty-five contestants still alive, and all their eyes were focused on Xiao Tian.
The fact that a king can ride the Blood Wolf Mountain is something that inspires envy and jealousy.
Situ Le smiled and celebrated on the surface, but inside he was furious and wished he could poison Xiao Tian to death.
The media arrived and started taking pictures of Xiao Tian!
The battle that night was also filmed remotely by several new small drones, so countless people throughout Luo Cheng witnessed Xiao Tian's prowess.
They were curious about Xiao Tian! Curious about how Xiao Tian became good friends with a King Level creature!
The media reporters asked all sorts of questions, and Xiao Tian simply smiled and gave a few casual replies.
The contestants returned to the city lord's mansion, where the judges announced the scores of the Life and Death Round.
The maximum score is 150, with additional bonus points.
" Situ Le, 100 points! Plus 15 bonus points! Total score: 115 points!"
Situ Le, the son of the former city lord, was not satisfied with this score; in fact, he was extremely frustrated.
" Lei Yuantai, 100 points! Plus 10 bonus points! Total score: 110 points!"
" Xiao Tian!"
When Grandmaster Long made the announcement, he paused and looked at Xiao Tian, who seemed rather nonchalant.
The surrounding contestants and judges all turned to look at Xiao Tian.
Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Xiao Tian smiled at Grandmaster Long and said, " Grandmaster, keep reciting. Don't think I'll embarrass you, don't be afraid."
Grandmaster Long's lips twitched. Embarrassing? You're so high-profile, and you're afraid of being embarrassed?
Those around him couldn't help but feel ashamed. Xiao Tian was really shameless; was he even speaking human language?
"Ahem... Xiao Tian, 100 points, plus 50 bonus points, for a total of 150 points!"
The other contestants all stared at him with envy and resentment.
Meanwhile, the media continued to take pictures, and the lights flashed.
Xiao Tian pouted, but still smiled and waved to the cameras.
Seeing Xiao Tian's infuriating expression, Situ Le clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, but he didn't feel the pain.
" Xiao Tian! Don't be so smug! Just you wait!"
After announcing the scores of the participants, Grandmaster Long continued, "According to our competition rules, the top ten will remain, and the rest will be eliminated."
"The top ten, from first to tenth, are Xiao Tian, Dongfang Hong, Ye Zhi, Situ Le... Lei Yuanfeng, Jiang Shanghan."
Situ Le was very unhappy because watching the great battle with the Blood Wolf King delayed his progress in obtaining bonus points. Furthermore, because the new king reorganized the Blood Wolf clan, he dared not go hunting at all and could only wait for dawn.
"Congratulations to the ten contestants who have advanced! Next is the 10-to-3 competition. The assessment method is yet to be determined. Please return home and rest for a day. Report to the City Lord's Mansion at noon the following day."
In an instant, Xiao Tian was surrounded by the media again.
" Xiao Tian, may I ask why you are so confident?"
" Xiao Tian, how did you determine that the Quasi-King Level Blood Wolf was capable of advancing? How did you become friends with it?"
" Xiao Tian, now that the King of Blood Wolf Mountain is your friend, will the people of Luo Cheng be harmed if they approach that place in the future?"
The media asked too many questions, making Xiao Tian's ears ring.
However, there is one question he would like to answer.
Xiao Tian took the microphone from the Luo Cheng newspaper and smiled, "Regarding the question of whether people from Luo Cheng will be harmed if they approach Blood Wolf Mountain, I feel it's necessary to answer it. First of all, I'm friends with the Wolf King of Blood Wolf Mountain. Before returning to Luo Cheng, I made a three-point agreement with it: anyone leaving Luo Cheng and passing through Blood Wolf Mountain, as long as they wear a badge with the Blood Wolf pattern, even if they're wearing clothes with the pattern, the Blood Wolf will not attack them, but..."
"The premise is that you won't harm the Blood Wolf. The Blood Wolf is also a living being; why should it let you kill it at will? Let's keep to ourselves. That's the current situation. I hope those with ulterior motives will put away their thoughts, lest they break the alliance I made with the Wolf King."
The media reporters, judges, and contestants were moved, and many looked on with respect.
Regardless, this is beneficial to the people of Luo Cheng; at least the road to Blood Wolf Mountain will be Quanxing. Of course, this is all predicated on the Blood Wolf actually acting in accordance with the alliance.
Xiao Tian's journey back was far from peaceful, as the media relentlessly pursued him, some even driving after him.
Although there are many Evolver nowadays and times have changed, the cars of the old era were still very fast, forcing Xiao Tian to run away by jumping over houses.
Outside of Luo Cheng, at Blood Wolf Mountain.
Big Red, who became the new king, advocated his master Xiao Tian's plan. First, he punished the Idiot Commander who liked to bully his own people, promoted his own confidants, and then used the majesty of the Wolf King to order the clan not to attack the humans of Luo Cheng without authorization.
The Grand Commander roared, "This means we've lost one of our food sources. Your Majesty, what is your solution?"
Before coming to Luo Cheng, Xiao Tian remembered several settlements of mutated creatures, and he told King Level Big Red about them.
The Big Red bird pointed far to the south and roared, "There are abundant ingredients there, including our beloved rabbits and sheep. There are also dangerous creatures there, but our people are not afraid of danger. Only by constantly facing and overcoming danger can we become stronger."
"My king is mighty!"
The Grand Commander was speechless for a moment. This new king was stronger than the old one. Although he no longer had the blood of the Blood Wolf Clan, the Blood Wolf Clan could not be without a king.
In Luo Cheng, Xiao Tian didn't get much rest; he spent most of his time battling wits with the Luo Cheng's media and paparazzi.
Because of Xiao Tian's hiding place, the surveillance network throughout Luo Cheng had been expanded, forcing Xiao Tian to eventually hide in the tomb.
"Oh dear, you said you wanted me to be the city lord, but I still have to rely on myself? What kind of situation is this? I'm so unhappy! Utterly unhappy!"
"You've hidden your abilities! You're cunning! But since you dare to come here, aren't you afraid I'll kill you!" A misty aura enveloped the area, and a sinister, chilling voice rang out.
"Hey, if you wanted to kill me, you wouldn't keep babbling. I don't care what you want me to do, I'm just staying here. Besides, why don't you tell me where you're from? Maybe I can save you."
"Hehehe... You are still too weak. Although you are very smart, I can sense that you are at most at the Peak Shackle Realm, not yet at the Carefree Realm and Unfettered Realm. Even the Carefree Realm cannot help me."
Xiao Tian was surprised. He realized that what he heard seemed to be true. Just who was the owner of this tomb?
"How do you know it won't work if you don't tell me? What if it does? If it succeeds, it will be a huge benefit to you! And for me, it could be an incredible opportunity!"
"Hehehe... You brat, stop trying to pry. If you can pass this test I've set up, I can talk to you about my past. In addition, you will receive a decent magic weapon, enough to help you survive in the current great changes in the world."
Xiao Tian chuckled inwardly, but outwardly showed great interest, saying, "Come on, I'm not afraid! I'm the chosen one!"
"The chosen one? Hahhh... Who in this world dares to call themselves the chosen one? And what is Heaven anyway? Do you even know? Ridiculous!"
"I know, young master. I am God."
"Heh heh heh... You foolish and ignorant brat, you should try to get through there first."
A strange power swept through, dragging the unresisting Xiao Tian to a mysterious place.
Meanwhile, above the tomb, Grandmaster Long Zaitian frowned deeply.
He was wondering whether he should go down into the tomb.
He suspected that Xiao Tian was hiding here, or perhaps he had been captured! Because the last thing captured in the footage disappeared was in this area.
Long Zaitian hesitated for a long time, but in the end he held back and didn't go down.
He had finally been given a new lease on life and freed from those restrictions; if things continued this way, it would be dangerous.
"This Xiao Tian is very likely another version of myself controlled by the tomb's owner! A copy of myself!"
Long Zaitian keenly sensed the seriousness of the problem.
"It seems we need to investigate Xiao Tian thoroughly. He lives with people from the Bodhi Group, so could he also be from the Bodhi Group? I've never seen him before, and besides, why do I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?"
While Long Zaitian was struggling with his decision, Xiao Tian curiously observed the ugly illusion around him.
"Baby? Tsk tsk, I can pull out a whole bunch of that stuff."
