#357 - Chapter 357 The Tournament is about to begin

「On the fourth day, you found business exceptionally easy, with almost no obstacles.

You earned nearly 4,000 Longhuo coins in a single day.

Looking at the massive amount of Longhuo coins, you fell into contemplation.

You sent the Flame Rhinoceros King to find the reason.

Soon, you learned the cause.

Almost all the humans in Longhuo City knew that you were a new participant from the Demon Beast side.

This identity represented a powerful background and formidable combat strength.

No one dared to overestimate themselves and come looking for trouble.

Hearing this news, you chuckled.

Strength, indeed, is the foundation for deterring everything.」

「On the fifth day, you started collecting skill books.」

「On the sixth day, your team gained a band of Blazing Flame Rat thieves.」

「……」

「On the twenty-sixth day, the Longhuo Ritual began, and you received a slight boost.

Demon beast hordes below the third rank, tenth level, were driven out.

As a participant in the competition, you could bring three followers.

You chose Gou'da and Ergou, and you gave the last spot to the Scarlet Flame Rhinoceros.

The Meiluo Flower Demon enforcer found you and took you to the competition venue.」

「On the twenty-seventh day, you, Gou'da, Ergou, and the Scarlet Flame Rhinoceros were taken to a vast area.

Here, you were surprised to discover.

The surrounding environment contained a large amount of free-floating magical power.

This free-floating magical power could even enter your body with your breath, strengthening your power.

Gou'da, Ergou, and the Scarlet Flame Rhinoceros were equally shocked by the astonishing magical power content here.

‘Where did these wild things come from? How did they get brought here?’

You looked over and saw that the speaker was a dark red ant.

Looking at it, you felt a little familiar.

Source Fire Ant!

But it wasn't the one that was driven away by the black cat.

This one's aura was obviously much, much weaker.

Beside it was a massive Source Fire Ant, with the aura of a third-rank, tenth-level, clearly displayed.

You glanced at it and then looked away, looking elsewhere.

Here were third-rank, tenth-level Meiluo Flower Demons, Heavenly Fire Ancient Trees, Crack Fire Rats, Scarlet Smoke Bears…

Seeing the Scarlet Smoke Bear, you paused.

This Scarlet Smoke Bear was the one who sold you the Scarlet Fire Source Fruit in Longhuo City.

At this moment, it was sleeping.

Noticing your gaze, it slowly woke up, and its bear eyes widened when it saw you.

‘You!’

You walked up to the Scarlet Smoke Bear with a grin, ‘Brother, we meet again.’

It hadn't forgotten that you bought a Lightning Arc skill book from it at a low price a few days ago.

‘You're the new demon beast participant?’

Seeing you nod, the Scarlet Smoke Bear circled you twice, clicking its tongue in wonder.

‘I didn't expect you to be the newest demon beast participant.’

Looking at it, you wondered if its information channels were that narrow?

The whole Longhuo City knew about it, and it was in Longhuo City every day, yet it didn't know.

You started chatting with it.

From its mouth, you learned.

The other seven participating demon beasts, besides you, were all descendants of various Overlords.

You were recommended by the Dark Cat Overlord.

It's Black Cat!

Black Cat was actually an Overlord!

You were stunned.

Suddenly, you had an epiphany.

You should have realized it long ago; it wasn't hard to guess.」

「On the twenty-eighth day, all the participating demon beasts were taken to a new place by the giant eagle demon beast you had seen before.

Gou'da, Ergou, and the Scarlet Flame Rhinoceros stayed where they were, along with the followers of the other demon beast participants.

Before leaving, you told them to wait patiently for your return.

……

The new place was a huge open space.

Looking around, you saw that it looked like a huge basin, with mountains on both sides.

Each side of the mountain was full of caves.

Each cave had one or more humans or demon beasts.

On the left side of the mountain peak, you saw a figure.

He stood calmly on the peak, yet he made all humans and demon beasts dare not ignore him.

The Scarlet Smoke Bear spoke, ‘That's a minister of the Longnuosi Principality, a fifth-rank expert.’

As soon as it finished speaking, a large number of cries appeared on the demon beast side of the mountain.

A huge black shadow appeared on the peak of the demon beast mountain.

The Scarlet Smoke Bear looked at the black shadow excitedly, ‘It's the Dark Cat Overlord!’

Looking at that figure, you felt a little flustered.

It was, a magnified version of Black Cat!

Seemingly noticing your gaze, Black Cat lowered its head and looked at your position.

Even from a very far distance, you could still feel it looking at you.

You smiled.

……

The giant eagle demon beast landed beside you, looking a little anxious.

‘Quickly familiarize yourselves with each other's abilities. After discussions between the higher-ups of both sides.

The first match is a team battle!’

Hearing ‘team battle,’ the expressions of the various demon beasts were different, some disdainful, some contemplative, some silent…

Uniquely, there was no fear.

Nor did any demon beast move.

Looking at this scene, the giant eagle hesitated for a moment and said coldly, ‘The human side has already practiced together for a long time.

I know you are proud and arrogant, but you are the choices valued by the various Overlords. I hope you can give yourselves, and the Overlords behind you, a good account.’

After speaking, the giant eagle sighed and turned its back to the demon beasts, ‘Our Flame Forest has lost for five consecutive sessions. In each session, almost none of the participants from our demon beast side can return intact…’

After listening, the Scarlet Smoke Bear said in a muffled voice, ‘For the glory of the Flame Forest! Let's cooperate well!

As everyone knows, my Scarlet Smoke Bear clan excels at defense. During battle, I am willing to stand at the front.’

The Source Fire Ant spoke, ‘I am skilled in group attacks.’

The Meiluo Flower Demon, ‘I can provide various buffs and healing…’

The Crack Fire Rat said in a sinister voice, ‘I can burrow into the ground and launch sneak attacks, taking the lives of squishy targets in the enemy's backline.’

……

Soon, all the other demon beasts finished their introductions, and the eyes of the seven demon beasts turned to you.

They knew each other very well, after all, they were descendants of the same Overlords, and it wasn't just for a day or two.

But you were mysterious in their eyes.

After all, it was impossible for low-level creatures like Slimes to grow to the third rank.

And you were a Water-type, an attribute that could not be born in the Flame Forest.

Meeting their gazes, you pondered for a moment, not knowing how to introduce yourself.

After thinking about it, you said, ‘I am good at melee combat, but I cannot move.’

Hearing your introduction, the seven demon beasts were stunned.

Melee combat that cannot move?

After two seconds of silence, the various demon beasts spoke up, discussing how to cooperate.

Looking at this scene, you suddenly felt that demon beasts could also be very friendly.

You also participated in the discussion.

Soon, your position was assigned.

The Scarlet Smoke Bear stood at the very front, and you were beside it, providing melee damage and tanking some damage.

The other six demon beasts, centered around the Meiluo Flower Demon, provided ranged fire support.

The seven demon beasts were full of confidence and high morale.

Looking at them, you felt a trace of unease in your heart.

Because, hundreds of meters away on the human side.

The eight people stood quietly, without any communication, but they seemed to have merged into a whole, exuding a power that made you feel frightened.

Among them, Kareda, riding a flying bird demon beast, looked at you.

You could feel that he had become stronger…
