Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 384 Star Conference

The testing equipment company did not expect that its testing equipment, which had been on the market for a long time without any problems, would suddenly face so much questioning and controversy.

Soon after, the branch company issued an announcement on its official website clarifying the matter.

First of all, there is absolutely no problem with the instrument.

The instrument used to test Su Ping has been recovered and tested, and there was no damage or abnormality.

Below the announcement, numerous photos of the recovery and testing were posted, and the data clearly indicated that the problem was not with their testing equipment.

Secondly, the official website also states that, to date, there is absolutely no secret method that can cover up the verification of testing instruments.

The two statements completely absolved the testing equipment of any responsibility, indicating that the matter had absolutely nothing to do with their testing equipment.

However, while proving its own products, the testing equipment company posed a startling question to the public.

Since the instrument is fine.

Could it be...

Is Su Ping really only at the mid-stage of the sixth rank?

This conclusion is so incredible that it has caused another uproar online.

While the general public was hotly debating the issue, some teachers from Star Pet Academy also jumped on the bandwagon, analyzing the possibility of being banned in a Tier 6 battle from a professional perspective.

However, from any perspective, the answer is consistent: it's impossible unless Earth becomes magical!

……

While the entire Longjiang region was abuzz with talk of Little Mischief Shop and Su Ping, the major families remained largely silent.

They don't care whether Su Ping is really a sixth-tier player or not; it's meaningless to them.

Their combat strength is already there; they can easily subdue even battle pets at the limit of the ninth-tier title. Such methods are enough to give them headaches and make them wary.

Their biggest problem right now is whether or not to go to the banquet tomorrow.

This decision could very well determine the future rise and fall of the family!

……

Meanwhile, the final results of the league were announced that evening.

The champion is Su Lingyue.

Runner-up: Xu Kuang.

The third place went to Qin Shaotian.

The fourth and fifth places are Ye Longtian and Mu Yuan Shou, respectively.

This list does not include Su Ping, who is the subject of much discussion today, nor does it include Yan Bingyue, who made a surprise appearance and amazed the audience.

Countless people left messages asking questions and raising doubts, but the official explanation was that both of them had abstained.

Based on what was seen during the live stream, although many viewers didn't know what was said at the time, it's likely that the pet shop owner named Su Ping forfeited the contest, while Yan Bingyue was simply dragged away and her fate is still unknown, which is equivalent to forfeiting the contest as well.

Although Su Ping and Yan Bingyue's names were not on the list, this did not stop people from discussing and debating them.

The strength they displayed led countless people to regard them as the uncrowned champions and runners-up.

……

night.

Located in the central region of the remote Asian continent, in an extremely magnificent base city.

The outer walls of this base city are steep and towering, hundreds of meters high and tens of meters wide, with a magnificent presence. The surface is made of dark brown crystalline rock specially refined by pet beasts, which is smooth and hard, and even attacks from ordinary ninth-order demon beasts are difficult to shake!

Within the base city lies a vast and boundless territory.

It is divided into various areas, each of which is like a city within a city, with an extremely prosperous economy.

Outside this base city are a network of underground tunnels, with underground railway tracks leading in all directions.

At this moment, in one of those areas.

Some of the landmark buildings in the area are adorned with unique, dark-colored flags featuring nine deep blue star swirls that stand out vividly against the black background.

This is the flag of the Starry Sky Organization.

This entire area is the territory of the Starry Sky Organization!

Inside the tallest building in the center of the area is an extremely magnificent and beautiful building. Thanks to the help of the pet beasts, the infrastructure materials can be greatly strengthened, so the entire building looks somewhat contrary to the principles of architecture. It is mainly divided into three structures, with the bottom layer resembling a super dragon beast lying on the ground.

The middle layer is the back of the dragon beast, with two giant hands extending upwards and ten straight fingers.

Above the finger is a relatively flat structure, like a mirror.

This is how it looks from a great distance. In reality, each of the "fingers" is hundreds of stories high, with elevators inside and transparent glass that allows you to overlook the countless "low-rise" buildings in the area when the elevators are going up.

At this moment, on the top of this ten finger-like building, inside the seemingly 'thin' and flat structure, on the third floor, there is an oval conference room.

This is the highest meeting room of the Starry Sky Organization!

When this meeting room is needed, it means that many important figures will be present, and the matters to be discussed are extremely thorny issues.

Inside the meeting room.

In the dim light, seven figures sat around an oval table. In the center of the oval table, the floor was made of transparent tempered glass, through which one could see the stars moving – a projection effect.

The faces of the seven figures were blurred in the dim light, making them look incredibly mysterious.

"Speaker Zu, what's the matter that's so urgent that you've called us all here?"

"Has the seal there loosened again?"

Two people spoke up; one had a steady voice, and the other a graceful female voice. Both sounded to be around forty years old.

Sitting at the very top was an elderly man with a hunched back, white hair, and a face full of wrinkles, but he exuded an aura of authority that commanded respect without anger.

"We just received news that one of the stars in our sky has been captured," the old man said slowly.

"Um?"

The other six people were surprised to hear what Speaker Zu said.

The middle-aged man said, "That's it? Although cultivating a qualified star is quite resource-intensive, it shouldn't require us all to come, right?"

"Who captured him?" another person asked, his voice devoid of emotion, but hoarse as a snake, sending chills down one's spine.

Everyone else remained seated and silent.

They knew that Speaker Zu would make things clear.

"Watch this video first."

The old man did not answer their questions. Instead, his fingers slid across the table, starlight flashed by, and then a virtual image appeared in the center of the conference table, playing a video.

The video shows a figure standing in mid-air at a competition venue.

"I think I vaguely remember this little guy."

"Is it that girl named Yan something?"

"That's right. Five years ago, in the training camp, she and her companions killed everyone else who was training with them."

"Tsk, in that case, he's a pretty good prospect."

"Judging from the appearance of this venue, is this a competition? Or perhaps it's some kind of recent children's league?"

"It seems so."

While the group was talking, suddenly, the entire video feed trembled violently, as if shaken by a powerful shockwave. Then, the camera suddenly shifted to the barrier at the edge of the arena, where a figure stood in mid-air, and a hole appeared in the barrier in front of him!

"Um?"

They all raised their eyebrows, and the relaxed expressions on their faces disappeared.

If this is a league match venue, then the strength of the barrier on site should be the highest standard stipulated by the unified regulations.

Can it break through the barrier?

Such power, even compared to theirs, seems to be not much different.

There was no further discussion; everyone just stared intently.

The video is also playing continuously...

for a long time.

Half an hour passed.

The video finished playing, and the meeting room fell silent.

The silence lasted for about half a minute before someone said in a low voice, "That black iron-like ring in the video can pull a ninth-tier ultimate battle pet right in. Have you ever seen such a treasure?"

Everyone else remained silent; no one uttered a sound.

No one has ever seen anything so terrifying.

Without an answer, the meeting room grew increasingly silent.

After a moment, Speaker Zu spoke up, saying, "According to the information I have received, this place is a second-tier base city called Longjiang in the south. The video was sent by a cross-city private enterprise in that base city. I have also sent people to investigate, and the matter is indeed as shown in the video, without any disguise. Because this incident occurred during the league qualification selection battle in this base city, under the watchful eyes of everyone, it is easy to find out the ins and outs."

He glanced around at the group and asked, "What did you notice about this person in the video?"

The six fell silent for a moment, then one of them said, "In my opinion, based on my experience with physical techniques, this person is probably not a titled-level expert. Moreover, he has definitely practiced some kind of physical technique and tempered his body; this can be seen from his astonishing explosive power."

"That's right, and I think this person's attack is a bit strange. It doesn't seem like a technique from a titled level. Besides, it's unlikely that the testing equipment produced by Yuansheng Group would make continuous mistakes. After all, behind Yuansheng Group is Elder Yuan. He has collected countless secret techniques, so it's highly unlikely that there would be a secret technique that could hide from this testing equipment."

"This person must be an unprecedented genius."

"A terrifying prospect."

"We can't call him a promising talent anymore. This person's combat strength is already greater than that of most titled-level individuals. In my opinion, he must have used some kind of special power to break through the barrier. It's a pity I didn't get a picture of it. But I estimate that this young man's normal level is at most at the mid-level of the titled-level."

What's truly terrifying about him is his battle pet, that skeleton-type creature!

"Agreed. I've never seen that skeleton before. It must be some kind of unknown skeleton. Judging from the power it unleashed and its secret techniques, it should be at the limit of the ninth rank. However, the legendary-level instantaneous flashing secret technique it mastered is quite troublesome. With this secret technique, killing ordinary titled beings would be a piece of cake, unless some titled beings also master legendary-level secret techniques. But such titled beings are very rare. Most of them are old guys like us."

"A sixth-tier cultivation level expert who also practices physical techniques, capable of unleashing mid-level titled speed and attacks approaching the limit of a titled level expert, along with an unknown skeletal creature and that equally terrifying Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast that seems to have undergone special training—such a person is actually in a second-rate base city?"

Seeing everyone discussing, Speaker Zu remained silent for a moment before speaking: "The reason I called you all here is not because of this boy, nor because of this Skeleton Race, but... the existence behind him."

Upon hearing his words, all six of them were slightly taken aback, and then their expressions changed.

indeed.

Although the young man was incredibly talented, it would have been unbelievable to them if it weren't for the clear video footage and their oral accounts. However, what was truly terrifying was the existence behind this young man.

The ability to cultivate such a genius—is it perhaps a legendary feat behind it?

But as far as they know, there is no such legend in the Asian continent, and no place where successors are cultivated.

After all, they knew who those two legends were going to cultivate, and they had warned their subordinates not to provoke them.

As for the legends of other continents, that's even more impossible. Those legends who wanted to get their hands on the Asian continent would have been opposed by the two legends above them long ago.

"Does Speaker Zu mean that one of us should go and investigate?" one of them said.

Upon hearing this, everyone else's eyes sharpened.

Speaker Zu nodded slightly, glanced around at everyone, and said, "This young man and that skeleton are not a problem on their own, but if he has a legendary figure backing him, we'll have to accept this loss. If not..."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes. "To publicly humiliate a person from the Starry Sky, death is the only punishment!"

Everyone fell silent upon hearing his words.

The latter dragging Yan Bingyue away in public was indeed a slap in the face to their Starry Sky Organization.

This matter will likely spread quickly and become known to other major powers.

Now that their legendary figures are dead, if such a thing were to be exposed, other major powers would likely look down on them.

But it's different if the other party has a legend behind them.

If there's a legend, then it's a legendary event.

Even if they cower in fear, no one will say anything. After all, if you're so powerful, why don't you go and mess with a legend?

"This man killed everyone else, but left that young girl surnamed Yan behind. He must have been prepared and wanted to wait for us to come to him," a middle-aged man said.

"Let's find out the situation first."

Speaker Zu glanced at the six of them, then suddenly looked at one of them and said, "King of Weapons, you have a steady and reliable nature, how about I entrust this matter to you?"

The one called "Weapon King" was a burly man. Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, he remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "No problem."

Seeing that he agreed, Speaker Zu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "If there is a legend, then apologize and we will admit defeat. If not, don't rush to act. This young man's combat strength alone is enough to compete with you. After all, in this video, the young man has not used his full strength and completely overwhelmed you. He may have other trump cards or other strong people with the same combat strength by his side."

You can send a message back first: Our Starry Sky Organization, when we kill, we do it to have an absolute deterrent effect, crushing everything with overwhelming force, understand?

"Don't worry, Speaker Zu, I know what I'm doing." The Weapon King nodded slightly.

"Um."

The old man nodded, entrusting the task to him with peace of mind.

When the others saw that he had taken on this task, they didn't say anything, but just gave him a few words of advice to be careful.

The next part of the meeting was about other things.

An hour later, the meeting ended, and everyone left, each with their own "work" to do.

Here's a 4,000-word chapter~ Thank you everyone for your concern. I'm feeling better after taking my medicine, and updates will continue as usual tomorrow.
