My cells devour all worlds.

"laugh--"

Golden light burst forth, its sharpness overwhelming.

On the vast field, the earth was torn into small fragments, and there was no longer a whole place.

The ice and snow covering the ground melted, and the chill that clung to the field dissipated.

Xiong Er was covered in blood, his brown and white fur turned red, and his ten-year-old bamboo staff had already broken in two during the battle. Xiong Er held the two pieces in his palms to support himself on the ground.

"Hoo hoo~"

Xiong Er was bent over, panting heavily like a broken bellows, his breath tinged with blood.

With each breath, the stench of blood on his body grew stronger.

Xiong Er roared to the sky, gripping his bamboo stick tightly in both hands, and clashed once again with the Golden Spirit Monkey, who was holding a large knife and wearing golden armor.

"Clang clang clang—"

The green shadows and golden light collided repeatedly, accompanied by flying green dust, and the bamboo stick grew shorter and shorter.

The golden monkey appeared almost unharmed; its golden armor dented but immediately healed, while Xiong Er was covered in wounds and its fur was soaked with blood.

The commentator watched with awe, "The Panda Hero has risen again with unwavering perseverance. It hasn't fallen yet; it can continue to fight..."

"Xiong Er..."

Zhuang Jinyao couldn't bear it and tried to help several times, but Jin Xia stopped her each time.

Er Gouzi was carried away covered in blood, and now Xiong Er has also become like this.

Zhuang Jinyao had wanted to give up for a long time, but Xiong Er refused her call to return and chose to continue fighting.

Jin Xia was dressed in thick armor, covering himself completely except for his eyes.

Holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, he was clearly a heavily armored infantryman.

Zhuang Jinyao, wielding a bamboo stick, could have used her speed advantage to suppress Jin Xia, but she couldn't inflict any crucial damage.

Instead, because he was worried about Xiong Er's condition being suppressed by Jin Xia, not only was his bamboo stick cut off, but he also had several wounds on his body.

"What a pity. If you could master Mega Evolution, you would be a very good opponent."

Beneath the armor, Jin Xia shook his head slightly, sensing that Xiong Er was nearing his limit.

Zhuang Jinyao studied his match videos, but he also studied Zhuang Jinyao's match videos.

Kim Ha was well aware of his weaknesses, so he avoided fighting from the start.

When Xiong Er appeared, he specially donned armor and had the Golden Monkey distract Xiong Er, creating an opportunity for him to fight Zhuang Jinyao one-on-one, in order to hone his combat skills.

The same applies to the Golden Monkey.

"It's about time..."

Noticing Xiong Er's condition, Jin Xia called out, "Golden Spirit Monkey, let's end the battle."

The words fell.

The golden monkey swiftly slashed out with its blade.

Xiong Er reacted quickly, thrusting out both sticks at once, intending to use skillful force to deflect the attack.

However, the moment the long sword fell, it instantly transformed into double hooks that caught the two sticks. With a press and a push, the double hooks turned into spears that pierced into Xiong Er's shoulder blades.

"laugh--"

The spear pierced into the flesh and emerged from the other side.

"Aww~"

Xiong Er's eyes turned red, and instead of retreating, he advanced, seizing the opportunity to bite down on the golden monkey.

"clang--"

The golden monkey extended its arm to block the bear's bite, its arm armor instantly growing larger.

Behind him, his tail was raised high, and a golden hammer fell down on Xiong Er's back.

"boom--"

Xiong Er's figure crashed heavily to the ground, unable to rise again.

"Beep—"

The referee blew his whistle, and the game was paused.

The commentator shouted, "Panda Hero has lost consciousness! The match is paused! Zhuang Jinyao only has one beast left. Does she still have a chance?"

The audience members were almost too afraid to watch; unless Zhuang Jinyao had some hidden, powerful beasts, it was impossible.

At the same time, the medical team quickly entered the field, took Xiong Er off the field, and provided emergency treatment.

"Xiong Er!"

Zhuang Jinyao felt a pang in her heart. She should have given up sooner; then Xiong Er and Er Gouzi wouldn't have ended up like this.

Although injuries are inevitable in battle, the fighters will not go for the kill, and there is a top-notch medical team on standby at all times, so nothing serious will happen.

Zhuang Jinyao still felt a little sorry for him.

This battle resulted in the most serious injuries Xiong Er and Er Gouzi had ever suffered; their injuries looked painful, and this was no ordinary mental world.

As the medical team led Xiong Er off the field, the referee looked at Zhuang Jinyao, made a gesture, and waited for her response.

"Sigh..."

Zhuang Jinyao made up her mind that she couldn't bear to see Fatty Tiger or Shadow Bat suffer such injuries again.

Zhuang Jinyao slowly raised her hand, just as she was about to surrender.

A familiar voice rang in her ears.

Zhuang Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then turned around in surprise to look in the direction of the preparation room, her hand frozen in mid-air.

next moment.

The teleportation device beeped, and Lu Sheng's figure emerged from the teleportation location, floating in front of Zhuang Jinyao, and even extending a claw towards her.

The sound rang in Zhuang Jinyao's ear alone.

"Sign or not? If you don't, I'm leaving."

Lu Sheng was truly out of ideas. His deductions had failed yet again, and he didn't want to continue. Let whoever wanted to do it do it.

If he's going to push something, it'll be something else.

Let's try the contract anyway; he can break it at any time.

Just then, Zhuang Jinyao was almost chopped into mincemeat on the field.

Lu Sheng felt that if he didn't come soon, Zhuang Jinyao would lose.

Despite his numerous modifications, Xiong Er's beast tamers still had a limited capacity to withstand attacks, and their raw strength was ultimately insufficient against top-tier spirit beasts.

The commentator continued, "Is this Zhuang Jinyao's last summoned beast? What's she planning to do?"

Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Zhuang Jinyao's hand glowed with the light of a contract signing, enveloping Lu Sheng.

???

The commentator was instantly bewildered, "Zhuang Jinyao is... summoning a beast on the spot?! This...this..."

Zhuang Jinyao's actions completely baffled this seasoned commentator.

This was the first time in many years that he had seen a competition where beasts were contracted and tamed in the arena.

The audience was completely bewildered.

The referees chattered amongst themselves, discussing whether Zhuang Jinyao's actions violated the rules of the competition.

The commentator forced himself to calm down and guessed, "Could this be Zhuang Jinyao's secret beast taming ability?"

Thinking of something, the commentator opened Zhuang Jinyao's information, found the Beast Taming section, and confirmed, "Found it! This is Zhuang Jinyao's fourth registered Beast Taming—the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!"

At this point, the contract was reached.

In an instant, Zhuang Jinyao felt her whole body filled with power, a continuous stream of energy surging from within her, more than a hundred times stronger than the four beasts she had previously contracted with Er Gouzi.

Not only did it instantly restore her physical strength and injuries, but it also made her strength many times greater than before.

But this is only the level of connection we've perceived!

Zhuang Jinyao opened her mouth wide in surprise. Was this Lu Sheng's power?

Lu Sheng didn't look at Zhuang Jinyao. The moment the contract was signed, the point that he couldn't understand seemed to become clear at that moment.

Lu Sheng suddenly had a new idea, and he had a premonition that this time it could definitely be realized.

At this point, the referee team finished their discussion. After comprehensive consideration, and considering that Zhuang Jinyao had registered beforehand, they ultimately determined that this action did not violate the competition rules and unanimously approved it.

However, after announcing the result, the referee still asked Kim Ha for her opinion, "Does Kim Ha have any objections to the result?"

"no."

Jin Xia shook his head slightly, then tilted his longsword to the side and laughed, "The Golden Spirit Monkey and I haven't had enough fun yet, I hope your secret beast taming won't disappoint me..."

"So..."

The referee put the whistle in his mouth, glanced at the two players, and raised his hand.

"Beep—"

The game continues!
