Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 314 Peak Tower

"That's right. Soon, after the Elite League ends, the Royal League will begin."

Qin Shuhai smiled and said, "With Brother Su's strength and talent, he will surely be able to show his skills in the King's League, which is our title-level martial arts arena."

Su Ping already knew about the Royal League, but wasn't very interested. Seeing Qin Shuhai's expression, which suggested he might participate, he asked, "What are the benefits of participating in this league?"

If it's just for fame, then it's obviously meaningless.

In elite leagues like this, if you win the global championship, you can receive guidance from legendary experts, or even be taken in as a student by a legend.

This is already considered a top-tier benefit, something countless people dream of. Even some titled-level individuals aspire to receive guidance from a legendary figure. Top titled-level figures like the Blade Master also hope to exchange experiences and insights with a legendary figure on their path to becoming a legendary-level expert.

Of course, this is something even more precious, a priceless treasure. Legendary figures don't usually reveal it easily, and they might not even pass it on to their own students.

The benefits of winning an elite league championship are that great, let alone the even higher-level King's League.

Although Su Ping wasn't particularly interested in legendary guidance, he was still curious to know what benefits there were on Earth that were greater than legendary instruction.

"benefit?"

Qin Shuhai was taken aback when he heard Su Ping's words.

Judging from Su Ping's tone, it seems that there's no benefit in it, so he won't go?

However, Su Ping's question surprised him somewhat. Usually, those at the title level would know the significance of the King's League, but Su Ping seemed completely unaware.

He didn't doubt whether Su Ping was truly a titled level expert, but rather felt that the information Su Ping possessed seemed somewhat mismatched with his strength, which differed from his imagined persona of Su Ping having a mysterious force behind him.

"The benefits are, of course, significant."

Qin Shuhai quickly composed himself, his expression becoming slightly serious, and said, "If we can make it into the top ten of the King's League, we will have the opportunity to work at Peak Tower."

"Peak Tower?"

Su Ping was taken aback, somewhat puzzled, as this was the first time he had heard this name.

Qin Shuhai noticed Su Ping's expression, and a thought flashed through his mind, but he didn't show it.

Based on this alone, he concluded that Su Ping could not possibly have a legendary figure backing him up.

If that's the case, he needs to reassess his position on Su Ping. There's no need to be too wary of him. After all, it makes sense. There are only two legends in the entire Asian continent region, both located in their respective mega-cities. If Su Ping were one of their people, how could he have been placed in Longjiang, which is far from the mega-cities?

"Brother Su should know that our Blue Star is an autonomous planet under the Federation."

"There are four continents on our planet Earth, each governing itself normally, but all under the jurisdiction of a central government."

"However, the central government only manages the economy and operations of Blue Star, but it is not the most powerful force on our planet. The strongest force is the Peak Tower!"

"Very few people know of the existence of the Peak Tower, because its members are extremely small. Even those at the title level generally don't know its location. But one thing is certain: every member of the Peak Tower is a legendary figure!"

"It is said that as long as one is promoted to Legend, one can gain the qualification to join the Peak Tower."

Qin Shuhai also showed awe on his face. A force full of legendary-level experts must be terrifying. Just thinking about it made him feel dreadful.

"I see," Su Ping said, suddenly understanding.

It turns out to be an organization of the world's most advanced forces.

Does "peak tower" mean the summit?

"So what do you mean by working at the tower?" Su Ping asked.

"The legends in the tower also need to live, and they can't do everything themselves; they need some assistants or errand runners."

Qin Shuhai smiled slightly and said, "If you get into the top ten in the King's League, you can work in the Peak Tower. Although it's just running errands for them, which sounds ordinary, think about it. Once you join the Peak Tower, you'll often see legendary players. If a legendary player takes a liking to you and gives you some guidance, the benefits will definitely be more than you could gain from decades of hard training on your own!"

"Moreover, working alongside a legend allows you to witness things that are rarely seen in ordinary times, and it broadens your horizons considerably."

"I heard that someone working in the Peak Tower found a secret treasure that a legendary figure didn't want. And guess what happened? That titled expert, with the help of this treasure, became almost invincible among titled experts. Only some truly old monsters among titled experts could suppress him. That shows how great the benefits are!"

Su Ping nodded.

The saying "one is influenced by one's company" is understandable.

Even if it's just running errands, being able to follow a legend around will definitely be very beneficial.

However, despite the great benefits, he wasn't very interested; he didn't have the time or inclination.

Besides, he has Joanna by his side. Joanna's true level is far beyond that of a legendary being. If he needs guidance, he might as well ask her.

"Are there any other benefits?" Su Ping asked.

"Um?"

Qin Shuhai was speaking passionately, and Fei Yanbo next to him was also listening with great excitement, but Su Ping's words suddenly cooled the atmosphere.

Qin Shuhai was stunned for a moment. Seeing Su Ping's calm expression, he was somewhat taken aback and then confused. He felt that he had to change his judgment of Su Ping again. This guy was a bit hard to figure out.

If even the Peak Tower is unknown, it's clear there's no legend behind it.

Since there are no legends, shouldn't you be excited when you hear about such an opportunity?!

He was slightly speechless, but still said, "Of course there are benefits. Joining the Peak Tower is only one of the advantages. There are also some aloof and independent titled individuals who don't like being restrained and are unwilling to join."

"If you don't join the Peak Tower, you can still get Star Power Stones as a reward. These are cultivation artifacts that can significantly improve even the cultivation of those at the Title Level."

"And the insights gained from breaking through to legendary status are priceless!"

Su Ping raised an eyebrow.

He doesn't seem very interested in any of these things.

Tips for breaking through to legendary status?

Although each legendary breakthrough has a different path and different insights, and it's good to learn more about them, he can ask Joanna for advice or have her find some legendary figures in the Divine Realm to teach him every day.

As for the Star Power Stone, it is a cultivation treasure. It is a consumable item, and you can never have too many of it. It is the only thing he is somewhat interested in.

"That's all?" Su Ping asked.

"..."

Qin Shuhai was speechless.

Is that not enough?

"The benefits of being in the top ten are basically these, but if you achieve a higher ranking, the benefits will be even greater. For example, if you win first place, the benefits will be so numerous that even legends would be envious. There's a kind of talent stone that allows pets to comprehend innate skills, causing their combat power to skyrocket!"

"Talent Stones? Talent Skills?"

Su Ping was taken aback; he had never heard of this before.

"I don't know the specifics either. You can look it up yourself later," Qin Shuhai said. Su Ping's reaction had dampened his spirits, and he didn't want to say anything more.

Su Ping nodded and made a note of the talent stone for the time being.

He considered himself to know a fair amount about pets, but he had never heard of pets having innate skills.

He only knew that there were inherited skills, which were passed down through bloodlines and possessed by every pet beast. Even a low-level Thunder Rat had Lightning as its inherited skill, an instinctive skill ingrained in its very bones.

But innate skills are unheard of.

"So, if he had this talent skill, could Little Skeleton's combat power increase significantly again from its current level?" Su Ping's heart stirred, and he prepared to turn back and ask the system.

Seeing Su Ping's indifferent expression, Qin Shuhai smiled bitterly to himself and said nothing more. He leaned back in his chair to rest. The words he spoke in those few minutes were more exhausting than the words he had spoken over the past few months.

Fei Yanbo, who was standing nearby, heard the two talking and his heart pounded wildly.

The information he heard in this short time was far more than he had ever gathered before.

"I heard your shop selected a young girl to be guaranteed the championship?" Qin Shuhai said casually, looking down at the competition venue that was being prepared.

Su Ping nodded, knowing that the other party must have inquired about his identity and probably also knew that this young girl was his sister, but had not revealed it.

"I originally just wanted to have some fun and do some small business, but someone insisted on competing with me, so I had no choice but to win the championship to suppress them," Su Ping said.

Qin Shuhai was speechless when he heard Su Ping's nonchalant tone. This was the championship, and even the Qin family wouldn't dare say they could win it 100%. But Su Ping's tone made it sound like it was already in his hands.

"So it was those ignorant fools from the Liu family."

Although he inwardly criticized Su Ping's words, Qin Shuhai did not show it on his face. As for the Liu family, he spoke without any politeness and was not afraid of being overheard.

"I knew it! With Brother Su's vision, how could he care about these childish toys? The Liu family deserves a lesson. Over the years, they've snatched away our pet shop business. They're insatiable, eating the meat themselves while not letting others have any soup. How outrageous!"

Su Ping just smiled and didn't say anything.

For Qin Shuhai, this elite league was indeed like children playing house, it didn't mean much.

Whether it's the players' pets or the battle commands, everything is rudimentary and immature.

However, the level of competition at the global finals is still quite high. It's just that the current selection is at the base city level, which is too unpredictable. Even making it into the top ten is easy, and winning the championship is only slightly more difficult.

"However, a promising talent has emerged from our Qin family this generation."

Qin Shuhai suddenly changed the subject, his gaze not on Su Ping, but still casually surveying the arena ahead, and said casually, "He's the young master of our Qin family, the next patriarch, with even better talent than I was back then. He's participating this time to win the championship, and I expect he'll have some friction with Brother Su..."

Su Ping couldn't help but smile, and finally got to the point.

"Congratulations on your success, young man," Su Ping said with a smile.

Qin Shuhai glanced at him, somewhat speechless. It's fine for others to say "junior," but it sounds awkward coming from you. You call him the young master, but he's actually several years older than you, Su Ping.

"It was just luck," Qin Shuhai sighed.

Seeing him sigh, Su Ping smiled gently and stopped teasing him, saying, "Since it's a competition, it should be fair. The champion should be the most capable. No matter who loses, I believe there's nothing to say, right?"

Qin Shuhai's eyes brightened slightly; these were exactly the words Su Ping had been asking for.

To avoid the Qin family defeating Su Ping's protégé on the field, and Su Ping then causing trouble at the Qin family's place like he did with the Zhou family, which would be incredibly embarrassing.

"Brother Su is quite open-minded. That's true. Fairness is the most important thing in a competition. It's just something for kids to compete in. To resort to tricks is just too low."

Yes, that's right.

"Then I wish Brother Su all the best. I'll be happy to see the Liu family suppressed," Qin Shuhai said with a smile.

Su Ping chuckled, thinking to himself that he would be even happier if his young master won the championship.

The competition officially began as they were speaking.

The waiting area was full, and the spectator passageways were closed. Amidst great anticipation, the competition began!

Qin Shuhai didn't leave; he sat next to Su Ping and watched the game with him.

There are one thousand people in the waiting area, and the first round is a competitive trial.

In the arena below, a huge instrument appeared. Behind the instrument stood a monster more than ten meters long, its body shrouded in smoke. It was the Abyss Nightmare Beast, a demon-type monster.
