Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 792 Capturing the Flag (Two Chapters Combined)

"Is this the preliminary selection area?"

Su Ping arrived at the registration area.

Before me was a sea of ​​people, and everywhere was filled with noise.

The entire vast square was packed with at least 100,000 people, many of whom were accompanied by their personal battle pets, which had been shrunk to miniature size.

There are also some battle pets, with bodies as small as elemental spirits, sitting on their owners' shoulders.

"Are you... the boss?"

Just as Su Ping was observing, a surprised voice came from behind him. He turned around and saw it was Felius.

"Um?"

Su Ping raised an eyebrow.

He vaguely remembered this guy; he was one of the store's early customers.

To Su Ping's surprise, even though he had slightly altered his appearance before leaving home to look more ordinary, this guy was still able to recognize him at a glance.

"Is it really the boss? I've seen this outfit before..." Felius was pleasantly surprised and excited when he saw Su Ping's reaction. He hadn't expected to run into Su Ping here.

The most famous and influential person in Wofit City right now is none other than Su Ping.

A Star Realm expert, with a Master of Nurturing behind him, even the ruler of Planet Rea wouldn't dare to offend him.

Aside from making a living, getting a meeting with Su Ping is virtually impossible.

"clothing……"

Su Ping looked at his clothes and immediately realized what had happened. He was speechless. He hadn't expected that his clothes had given him away. It was also his fault for not noticing that he had been so focused on his battle pet lately.

"Don't make a fuss."

Felius looked excited and nodded repeatedly.

"Boss, are you here as a judge?" Philius asked cautiously, his eyes filled with awe and gratitude. Every time he received a pet, he would choose to train it again.

Several of his battle pets are already A-grade, and one of them, which has been bred three times, is already A+ grade!

This is also the source of his confidence in participating in the preliminary selection!

Without Su Ping, he wouldn't dare to have too much hope for becoming the top city in Wofit City. Although it was his goal, he knew in his heart that it would be difficult to achieve.

But now, he is very confident.

Moreover, his family learned that he was able to cultivate [their skills] in Su Ping's shop, which led to a rise in his status within the family.

He also received a large amount of funds from his family, which enabled him to receive professional-level training at the Suping store!

Furthermore, his family spread the news, which made some of the forces or wealthy organizations that had previously put pressure on his family much more polite to them.

If this were to be told to others, they would almost think he was crazy, but Philius knew that it was all because he was able to cultivate it in Su Ping's shop.

As long as he has money, he can choose to continue training his pet every time he receives one!

Once he gives up on further breeding, then if someone wants to breed him again, they'll have to wait in line.

With that terrifyingly long queue outside Su Ping's store, who knows when it will take?

"No, I'm here to register."

Su Ping said.

"?"

Philius was momentarily stunned, and stammered, "You, you're here to register? But Star Realm battle pets aren't allowed to participate in the pet battle competition..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly realized that Su Ping didn't necessarily have to use his own battle pet; he could use someone else's!

Even unowned battle pets without contracts are fine, since only battle pets participate in the battle, so who cares who their owners are?

He suddenly felt a little nervous.

Su Ping also signed up; he's definitely aiming for first place.

Su Ping glanced at the guy, shook his head, and didn't say anything more to him.

"The boss?"

Just then, another light and melodious voice rang out.

Su Ping was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Mia.

"Is it really Boss Su?" Mia was pleasantly surprised when she saw Su Ping turn around. "Are you here as a judge?"

"..." Su Ping was speechless. Why did everyone think they were judges? Couldn't I be a contestant?

Seeing that Su Ping didn't speak, Felius quickly and obsequiously answered for him.

Mia looked at her incredulously. "You're here to compete?"

Realizing her mistake, she quickly smiled and said, "Then I wish Boss Su all the best in winning the pet battle competition. That Super Spirit Fruit is for Boss Su."

"Um."

Su Ping nodded, not taking it as flattery or praise, but as an established fact.

Seeing Su Ping's confidence, Mia felt even more envious. She had also come here to register, wanting to have some fun before returning to the academy. As for whether she could get any ranking, she didn't really expect much.

Moreover, due to Su Ping's shop recently, the number of A-grade battle pets in Wofit City has surged. Although she also has A-grade battle pets, she no longer has much confidence in getting a ranking.

All she wanted was for her battle pet to learn some combat experience.

……

The line quickly came to an end, and it was Su Ping's turn to register.

Su Ping summoned Little Skeleton, Er Gou, the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, as well as the Purple-Green Python and the White-Scaled Sky Thunder Dragon Beast.

Besides Little Skeleton and Er Gou, the appearance of the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast and the others immediately alarmed the crowd queuing nearby.

But when they saw that these huge creatures were just low-blooded dragons and pythons, they all felt a sense of relief.

The white-scaled Sky Thunder Dragon Beast inside attracted a lot of attention. When people saw its snow-white dragon scales, they were all surprised. It was obviously a mutated Sky Thunder Dragon Beast.

The question is whether the mutation will be for the better or for the worse.

Some mutations are degenerates, much weaker than those of the same class, which is quite common.

In front of the row of judges who had signed up, exclamations could be heard from other places as other people summoned their battle pets. Occasionally, a super popular pet with extremely strong bloodlines would appear, attracting the attention of countless people.

"Am I seeing things? Is this person trying to register with that python too?"

"The cultivation aura of that python beast doesn't seem to belong to the Vast Ocean Realm."

"Look, there's another skeleton over there. They dare to bring that out?"

"I don't think any of the undead skeleton races are particularly strong, right?"

Standing next to Su Ping, Mia and Philius felt a cold sweat break out on their foreheads as they heard the whispers and pointing fingers around them. These guys, do they even know whose battle pet they're questioning?

However, they were also somewhat surprised.

They had assumed Su Ping would use someone else's battle pets in the competition, but they never expected that Su Ping would summon them himself.

It's rather strange that a Starry Sky Realm expert has so many low-level pets.

"Sign up?"

The judge in front of Su Ping was an old man at the Heavenly Fate Realm. When he saw the many battle pets Su Ping summoned, his eyes narrowed slightly, especially the skeleton standing at the very front, which was the same height as him when he was sitting.

Although the skeleton didn't emit any aura, its empty skull eye sockets staring at him gave him a feeling that made the hairs on his body stand on end.

Like an extremely terrifying creature, staring at him from those bottomless eye sockets!

"Um."

"Please have your battle pet imprinted with your spirit. Also, give your battle pet a resounding name," the old man said.

He pulled out a crystal plaque that resembled a talisman, something used to inscribe a spirit and leave a mark of registration.

Su Ping immediately had the little skeleton use its spiritual power to leave a mark on the crystal tablet. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's call it Little Skeleton."

"A little skeleton?"

The old man was stunned, clearly not expecting Su Ping to name someone so casually.

However, since it didn't concern him, he didn't say much, only asking, "What competition rank did you register it for?"

"The Heavenly Fate Realm, I suppose," Su Ping said.

He had learned the rules before he came. Although the little skeleton's cultivation level was only at the Vast Ocean Realm, registration was not limited by one's own cultivation level. However, under normal circumstances, everyone would only register for a level within their own cultivation level. Wouldn't it be better to get first place within the same level? Trying to go above one's level would easily lead to failure!

After all, the battle pets that come here to compete are all top-tier.

You are top-tier among your peers and could have taken first place, but when you encounter someone of a higher level with a top-tier pet, the innate one-level difference in cultivation becomes extremely fatal!

In order to participate in the competition and win rankings and rewards, many people deliberately let their battle pets lose power and reduce their cultivation level by one level. Although doing so is somewhat harmful, it can be made up for if they can win rankings and rewards. It's like a business deal; the gains and losses are weighed, and in the end, it's worthwhile.

"The Heavenly Fate Realm?"

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, but he wasn't too surprised. This skeleton gave him an indescribable sense of danger. Although he sensed that its cultivation level was only at the Vast Ocean Realm, who knew if it was faking its cultivation level?

Soon, the registration for Little Skeleton ended.

"Just let it enter the arena when it's time to compete. We've already recorded its aura," the old man said to Su Ping.

"it is good."

Su Ping nodded, then registered Er Gou and the Purgatory Candle Dragon Beast, both of whom were at the Heavenly Fate Realm.

The remaining one, the White-Scaled Sky Thunder Dragon Beast, has also completed its registration and is at the Void Realm level.

The Purple-Green Python is at the Vast Ocean Realm level.

Su Ping wants to be number one in all three ranks.

"Your battle pet doesn't seem to have reached the Vast Ocean Realm yet, does it?"

When the old man registered the purple-green python, he asked with some doubt.

The difference in aura between a King Beast and a King-level Battle Pet is extremely obvious and can be easily sensed. He felt that it was not a disguise and did not understand why someone like Su Ping, who could control a Heavenly Fate Realm Battle Pet, would have low-level pets that were not even at the Vast Ocean Realm among his contracted pets. Shouldn't he have abandoned them and replaced them with Heavenly Fate Realm Battle Pets long ago?

"Um, can I sign up?" Su Ping asked.

The old man was taken aback when Su Ping actually admitted it. He frowned and said, "He could, but with this difference in skill level... he'd probably struggle even to pass the flag-capturing preliminary rounds, and might even die!"

"That's fine."

"..."

Seeing that Su Ping hadn't paid any attention to what he said afterward, the old man was speechless and could only shake his head to complete Su Ping's registration.

Anyway, it's someone else's pet, so let them do whatever they want. It's just a pity that this battle pet has chosen the wrong master.

……

After all the battle pets had registered, Su Ping recalled them and left the team.

At other registration points, gasps of surprise rang out.

Su Ping also glanced over upon hearing the sound and immediately saw a majestic dragon beast covered in black scales, radiating demonic flames, with an aura as vast as an abyss.

"It's the Demonic Asura Dragon!"

"There's such a rare battle pet! It's even more terrifying than the Sky Thunder Dragon Beast!"

"I don't know what qualifications they have."

"I think I heard a few days ago that someone detected a Demonic Asura Dragon with a Grade A aptitude. Could this be the one in front of me?"

People around were talking about it.

Su Ping suddenly realized that the dragon beast looked familiar. He quickly recalled that it was a battle pet of a customer that he had previously bred.

During its breeding, this dragon beast followed closely behind Er Gou and Xiao Gu Lou, causing trouble everywhere like a little brother.

Su Ping shook his head and didn't look at it anymore.

"Boss, are you just going to use those few battle pets to compete?"

Philius and Mia waited for Su Ping outside the crowd. They had also seen the battle pet that Su Ping had summoned earlier, and they were both quite surprised.

Apart from the mutated Sky Thunder Dragon Beast, the other battle pets don't seem to have very good bloodlines.

"Um."

Su Ping didn't say much to them, saying, "I have to go back and get busy now. See you when the competition starts tomorrow."

The two still had many questions and advice to ask Su Ping, but seeing that Su Ping had said this, they dared not keep him and could only say goodbye with regret.

After leaving the audition area, Su Ping returned to the shop and continued today's training.

"What race do you think this font belongs to?" Su Ping asked Joanna.

Joanna didn't recognize the words on the fragmented cultivation technique either.

"This looks a bit like an older word. I guess someone knew it back in ancient times," Joanna guessed.

Su Ping's heart stirred slightly. An even more ancient era? Perhaps in a top-tier nurturing ground like the Primordial God Realm or the Chaotic Necromancer Realm, there would be living beings who recognized it.

Once he has some free time and goes to the Primordial God Realm with Joanna, Su Ping will be able to ask someone for advice.

……

Another day has passed in the blink of an eye.

The number of people coming here for cultivation had decreased significantly by the second day, but the queue was still as long as a dragon, with no end in sight.

Many people left to participate in the pet battle competition, but some who knew they had no hope of making a name for themselves in the pet battle competition are still waiting here obediently.

Today was the day of the competition, so Su Ping returned the trained battle pets to the customers who came to collect them early in the morning, postponed the business hours until the afternoon, closed the shop door, and sent Little Skeleton and Er Gou to the pet fighting competition preliminary round in Wofit City.

This audition venue... consists of three void barriers suspended above the city.

Each of the three barriers contains an extremely majestic and enormous mountain. These three massive void barriers can be seen from the outskirts of Wofit City.

When Su Ping arrived at the entrance to the void barrier, the square here was the city lord's mansion square of Wofit City. It was extremely huge, but at this moment it was full of people.

The sheer number of participants amazed Su Ping.

"The preliminary selection will last four hours!"

"From 8 a.m. to 12 p.m.!"

"Whoever captures the flag on Pet King Mountain within these four hours will gain the right to challenge!"

The rules for the preliminary rounds are very simple and brutal: whoever gets the flag is king!

When Su Ping arrived, it was already 11 a.m., leaving only one hour.

Su Ping had learned the rules in advance. As long as it was before 12 o'clock, he could enter at any time. Sometimes, it wasn't necessarily better to enter as early as possible, since once he got the flag, he still had to hold it!

"Go in."

Su Ping immediately summoned Er Gou and Little Skeleton, sending them into the void barrier.
