“How can that be? But who are you guys?” Leng ruoxue asked curiously.
“Me, Liu Feng, Shen nuo, first elder, we will all return with you.” Liuyue explained.
“Oh! “However, my place has only just started construction. When we left for the Imperial City, the construction was not completed yet, so …” Leng ruoxue was a little hesitant. She was not sure what her place looked like now. It was unlikely that she would be able to meet anyone.
“It’s okay, we won’t mind. You have a portable house anyway, so we don’t have to worry about not having a place to live.” Liuyue said disapprovingly.
“In that case, let’s go together!” Leng ruoxue felt a little helpless. Since they had already put it this way, she naturally couldn’t reject them. Actually, she really didn’t have the intention of inviting them over as guests. After all, her territory was still in its initial stages of construction. However, these people weren’t considered outsiders. Since they wanted to go now, she definitely wouldn’t reject them.
Seeing that Leng ruoxue had agreed, Liuyue’s handsome face broke into a smile. He knew that this little girl would not reject them.
After chatting with Liuyue for a while more, Leng ruoxue stood up and bade her farewell.
Three days passed by quickly.
When the beast race’s competition officially began, only a few dozen clans from the human race remained to watch the battle. Most of them were people that Leng ruoxue knew.
Ji Yun, Yu Chen, and the others had all stayed behind.
On The Day of the Beast race’s competition, Leng ruoxue and the rest arrived at the competition grounds early in the morning.
Yu Chen, who had arrived a step later than them, couldn’t help but tease them when he saw them,””I’ve never seen you so enthusiastic in the human race’s competition. ”
“That’s right! What’s there to see in a competition between humans? Beastie is cuter!” Feng Da said disapprovingly.
“The beasts are cute, but the beasts that are participating in the competition may not be cute. Didn’t you notice that there are many unfriendly gazes here?” Yu Chen said in a low voice.
The majority of the audience were magical beasts with only a small portion of them being humans. As a result, they seemed to stand out from the crowd. Not only that, but many of the magical beasts did not assume human form. Instead, they sat in the audience with the appearance of beasts. They looked even more petite and exquisite among the small mountains.
On the right side of Leng ruoxue and the others ‘seats, there was the Python clan. The giant pythons were all sticking out their tongues and would look at them with cold eyes from time to time, causing everyone’s hair to stand on end.
On their left sat the adorable members of the leopard clan. The Leopards from the leopard clan were all in mimicry, which made them look even more adorable. These two extremes rendered Leng ruoxue and the rest speechless. However, the leopard clan’s attitude towards them was not much better than that of the Pythons!
Seeing this, Leng ruoxue finally realized the insurmountable gap between the magical beasts and the humans. If it were not for the fact that the competition was organized by the Divine Master’s residence, the magical beasts would not even share a room with the humans!
At this moment, Leng ruoxue suddenly felt an itch by her feet. Lowering her head, she saw a palm-sized snow-white leopard rubbing against her feet. That cute little appearance made one’s heart soften.
Leng ruoxue bent down and picked up the little leopard. At first, the little leopard only struggled for a while, but then it lay quietly in Leng ruoxue’s palm. Seeing this, Leng ruoxue took out a red fruit and teased the little leopard.
Junior leopard stretched out his little paw to take the fruit that was emitting an alluring fragrance. However, Leng ruoxue would not let him take it so easily. After a few rounds of teasing, junior leopard pouted and his beautiful silver eyes became misty. Then, with a “waa” sound, he burst into tears.
“Uh! Don’t cry! Don’t cry! Here you go!” Leng ruoxue saw that she had made the little fellow cry and hurriedly tried to comfort it. After the little leopard had obtained the fruit, it continued to stare at Leng ruoxue with an aggrieved expression, as if it was complaining about her heartlessness.
Seeing this, Leng ruoxue felt helpless. It seemed like this little fellow wasn’t easy to coax! Thinking of this, she could only take out another fruit to bribe this little guy.
However, who knew that junior leopard would only close his eyes slightly. It was obvious that he did not buy Leng ruoxue’s bribe. When everyone saw this, they could not help but laugh.
“You little thing, it’s quite difficult to serve you.” Leng ruoxue was a little speechless. At this moment, a similarly snow-white leopard walked over from the neighboring seat. It looked at Leng ruoxue and the rest with a nervous expression,””Please return my child to me, okay?”
It was obviously a female leopard. When she spoke, her beautiful silver eyes were filled with uneasiness. Leng ruoxue and the others were at a loss for words. Looking at the mother, it was as if they were bad guys who specialized in kidnapping and tricking children. However, they couldn’t blame the female leopard for being so nervous. After all, when humans saw beasts, they would only think of forming a contract. This was especially so for a young beast, which was much easier to form a contract with than an adult beast.
After Leng ruoxue heard the mother leopard’s words, she let out a soft sigh and placed the little leopard onto the mother leopard’s back. When the mother leopard saw this, she thanked her softly and brought her naughty child back to their seats.
At this moment, the beast race’s competition began under the judge’s command.
The rules of the beast race competition were not much different from that of the human race. However, each race could only send three participants. Moreover, half of the beasts would be eliminated in the preliminary round. From this, one could see how fierce the competition was!
Among the beast clans, the most powerful were the four Royal divine beasts, namely the Dragon, Phoenix, White Tiger, and Qilin. Next were the Fox clan, Lion Clan, leopard clan, and other beast clans. Moreover, the strength of the beast clans was extremely uneven. The beast clan was the most powerful and had the noblest bloodline. Therefore, if there were no accidents, the champion would be one of the four Royal divine beasts. There was almost no suspense.
Leng ruoxue was also very clear about this situation. The reason why she stayed behind to watch the battle was mainly to target the four King divine beasts.
Not only did the four great beast Kings have the highest status among the magical beasts, but their strength and status couldn’t be underestimated even among the humans. After all, once they became reverent-god level, their origins, races, and so on were no longer that important. It was also because of this that human powerhouses treated magical beasts as equals. If there was a conflict between the two races, it was usually resolved by the human and magical beast powerhouses.
Leng ruoxue’s beautiful eyes scanned the representatives of the four King-level divine beasts who were seated closest to the main platform. The representatives of these four clans were seated in human form. Furthermore, the four clans had distinctive features. The leader of the dragon clan was dressed in a Golden Dragon robe. He had golden hair and golden eyes, and he had the aura of a King. The leader of the Phoenix Clan was a lady dressed in fiery red. It was as if her body was burning with flames, and the air around her was instantly roasted dry. The leader of The White Tiger clan was dressed in white. He was as intimidating as a deity. As for the Qilin clan, their leader was also a man. His appearance and temperament were all top-notch, and he had a gentle smile on his face. However, Leng ruoxue could clearly see that the smile on this man’s face did not reach his eyes.
