All My Beasts are Legendary - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Tyrannosaurus Levels Up

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days had passed.

During these days, the group of Challengers on Cerulean Planet wracked their brains to find a way of communication with the looming thunderbolt that hovered around their planet.

In the end, they had failed completely.

That thunderbolt was circling Cerulean Planet endlessly, neither leaving nor descending.

It was like a powerful sword that hung over the people’s heads; it inspired much uneasiness in them.

“Remember, this, Shoucheng, he who hesitates will lose!”

On this day in Jiangzhou University, Lin Shiru rubbed her temple and stood up from her seat, the lethargy evident on her face.

Earlier, not too long after she left the Spirit Secret Realm, she returned to Jiangzhou University when she saw that the thunder bolt in the heavens was not descending even after much time had passed.

Jiangzhou University was not what it used to be.

It relied almost entirely on two people to hold itself up—Lin Shoucheng, her elder brother’s only child, and herself. She had been unable to help at all since she had been away from Jiangzhou University for a long time.

Just like this time, for example. She had barely been away from Jiangzhou University for a few days before there had been several head-splitting problems for her to deal with.

“I understand!”

Lin Shoucheng nodded, the slightly thin figure rising up from his seat, and he said, “Since some of them want to leave, let’s just let them.

“With such people holding us back, our dreams of bringing Jiangzhou University to new heights will only be a pipe dream!

“And so, let’s go ahead with this plan!”

Lin Shiru pushed up the glasses sitting on her nose and looked out of the glass window. She could see the purple thunderbolt high up in the heavens, as it had been.

In a situation like this where everyone, not even the stars, knew what would happen in the next second, she still had fret over these trivial worries. She could not help but smirk mockingly.

“You handle the rest on your own, I’m planning to head to Cangzhou,” Lin Shiru said with a shake of her head.

“Cangzhou? The student you’re mentoring, just what is his Talent like? Will he really be able to carry Jiangzhou University on his back in a few years?” Lin Shoucheng could not help but ask when he heard what she said.

“His Talent exceed my expectations, in a good way.”

Lin Shiru’s lips curled into a smile when she thought of Ye Xuan, “Earlier when he challenged the Spirit Pagoda at the Spirit Secret Realm, he broke the record set by the King of Thousand Cranes.

“Aside from that, he’s doing very well in other areas.”

“That’s good to hear.”

Lin Shoucheng was a little shocked.

He did not think that Lin Shiru, whose standards were impossibly high, would appraise someone like this.

Rumble!

As the two of them were talking, the thunderbolt in the sky—the one that had not been moving in the slightest bit for the past few days—suddenly sounded an explosion.

In the next moment, just as it was circling, it was suddenly blown up into millions of purple lightning bolts that rained down from the sky.

“What happened?”

Lin Shiru and Lin Shoucheng’s faces fell when they saw this.

They rushed out of the building.

They then saw that the enormous thunderbolt in the sky, after it had been blown up into bits, about ten or so fell upon Jiangzhou.

These ten bolts were all hundreds of meters thick. They were like enormous, threatening, purple pythons that were hurtling down from the sky. Not a single person dared step forward to hold them back.

Not even the Challengers.

“This can’t be!”

After a few beats, Lin Shiru’s brows suddenly rose as the large, purple thunderbolts descended.

It was not just her.

There was Lin Shoucheng who was beside her, as well as all of the people on Cerulean Planet.

After the purple thunderbolt exploded, all of them were shocked.

Logically speaking, even if Cerulean Planet was not completely destroyed after such a huge thunderbolt landed upon it, there would, at the very least, be violent tremors that would trigger a calamity.

But as the purple thunderbolt fell, they did not feel the slightest movement at all.

“Let’s go. We’ll go take a look at the thunderbolt that’s landed the closest to us!” Lin Shiru said, her heart seizing.

…

“He broke my uncle’s record. Is that Ye Xuan guy really that powerful?”

In the Spirit Secret Realm, a young man sat atop a large slab of rock wish a fishing rod in his hand, idly fishing from the small lake.

As he fished, he turned to speak to another youth sitting beside him.

“Perhaps even more than you imagine.”

Another young man shook his head and said, “Back then when the King of Thousand Cranes saw the person in the Spirit Pagoda, he’d only stayed for another two minutes or so before leaving the pagoda.

“But this one they call Ye Xuan, he’s stayed for more than 10 minutes, including the time he spent on the challenge.

“That’s pretty amazing.”

The fishing youth’s hands shook. There was a large fish on his hook.

“Tsk, tsk. Another arowana, Lil Crane is in luck.”

Glee immediately bloomed on his face at the sight of such a huge fish.

“So? Did hearing about Ye Xuan not inspire any thoughts in you?” the boy beside the young fisherman asked curiously as he watched this scene unfold.

“Thoughts? What thoughts could I have?”

When he heard that, the young fisher said with a shake of his head, “I might not be a Dark Iron warrior, but my Lil Crane has already advanced to the Dark Iron level.

“It’s even risen to become a five-star Dark Iron level beast when it leveled up.

“No matter how powerful you say Ye Xuan is, do you think two of his apprentice-level beasts will be a match with me?”

“I have no interest in bullying others.”

The other young man asked when he heard, “What if he’s at the Dark Iron level?”

“When he advances to the Dark Iron level, I’ll definitely also be at the Dark Iron level officially.” Gu Qinghe smiled confidently. “By then, I’d have bonded with my second beast, and my second beast will be a five-star one.

“I’ll have two five-star beasts at the Dark Iron level at that time. That Ye Xuan, even if he advances to the Dark Iron level, he’d only have at most one five-star beast bonded to him.

“His other two apprentice-level beasts, they’ll definitely lose their stars once they advance to the Dark Iron level. By then, if we really were to go head-to-head, I won’t fear him!”

Beep!

As he spoke, he placed his finger by his lips and blew a clear-sounding whistle.

Whoosh!

As his whistle rang out into the far distance, there was a snow-white Spirit Crane in the far distance that instantly spread its wings and flew over.

The Spirit Crane was flying at an altitude of several hundreds of meters. No matter how good your eyesight, you would only see a white speck if you looked up at the sky.

Atop a lofty, towering mountain, a snow-white Spirit Crane heard the call of its master. It thought about the scrumptious fish that it would soon feast on, and thus could not help but sail through the air quicker.

Roar!

Just as it passed a mountain that it had passed by many a time, an amber Tyrannosaurus with gigantic wings suddenly strode out of a cavern in that mountain.

After emerging from the cavern, the Dual-winged Amber Tyrannosaurus looked up at the sky.

It instantly caught sight of the snow-white Spirit Crane that was gliding over its own head.

In the next moment, this beast that had finally achieved the Dark Iron level did not hesitate, not after suffering through several days of agony.

It immediately growled throatily.

“What’s going on?”

As the beast let out a thunderous growl, Gu Qinghe was beneath the mountain peak. He watched as his own beast—the Thousand Shadows Lightly Breezed Crane—hurtle through the air from the lofty skies, like a sparrow with broken wings, and he immediately blanched.
