What on earth is that??

Both Ye Chenshan and the woman beside him gazed at the seemingly tiny skeleton at Su Pings feet in great surprise. The encroaching dark energy made it hard to see clearly, but they still saw how the small creature managed to force a great number of skeletons under its command.

It wasnt rare to find smaller Astral Pets with big power. But this didnt usually apply to skeletons, whose strength was often dependent on their size.

Maybe its a special kind adept at spiritual attacks? They wondered with curious looks.

The dark energy cloud around Little Skeleton was rapidly shrinking. Like a whale feasting on schools of shrimps, it absorbed the energy into its dark-colored bones. It then pulled out a sharp bone blade from between its ribs and ordered the controlled skeletons to charge at the Magical Corpse Beast as a team.

Ye Chenshan and his partner were greatly shocked again. Moments before, they thought this particular creature was like a mage who stayed behind protection. They werent expecting to see it running toward the enemy with a weapon in hand.

While marching, the random bone creatures reformed into different shapes using the powerful will of resentment lingering behind. Some turned into human skeletons, while some became more Astral Pets. Nevertheless, every one of them looked fearless.

The boney reinforcements madly latched themselves onto the Magical Corpse Beast using their nails and teeth, which helped the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf to catch a breather. Their number wasnt their only weaponeach one of them was at least a fifth or even a sixth rank. They could instantly tear the wolf apart if they were to change targets at a moments notice.

Infuriated, the Magical Corpse Beast summoned two thick bone whips from its massive body and began using them to swipe the skeletons away.

The attack seemed to be working at first, when many skeletons were shattered to pieces no matter how fast they could move. However, more dark energy would soon emerge from the destroyed bones to patch them up.

Roar!

A horned skeletal tiger jumped onto the Magical Corpse Beast and began randomly chomping off its more vulnerable body parts.

The maddened beast unleashed a barrage of bone spikes from all over its body, which removed the skeletons still attacking it. But it was of no usein the next second, endless swarms of skeletons joined the front line to overwhelm it with their sheer number.

Snap!

By hiding among the skeleton army, Little Skeleton got close enough to the Magical Corpse Beast and slashed at it.

A deadly blade aura reached the beast like a tidal wave and shattered several of its supporting bones.

What is

Everyone present watched the ongoing battle with a look of disbelief. Especially Lin Mokong, who simply could not believe his eyes.

That thing is at the upper position of the eighth rank! That Su Ping bastard can handle it alone?! he questioned in his mind.

Lin Mokong suddenly felt regretful for his earlier actions as cold sweat started to trickle down. More so when he noticed that Su Ping looked completely unruffled in this dangerous situation. What Su Ping showed him until this point suggested that there was probably a powerful clan or organization supporting him from behind the stage. If he ended on Su Pings bad side, he would be offending many more people.

Fan Ganglie recovered from his shock first and spoke to Ye Chenshan, Since Mister Su is so good, maybe we should attempt to kill this Magical Corpse Beast instead?

Everyone could see that Fan Ganglie had just become greedy after considering the potential reward they could earn from killing the creature, and it was logical. Judging from the creatures level, whoever finished it off could be directly promoted to a Silver Wing settler.

Instead of answering right away, Ye Chenshan checked the young man he had been curious about.

With that kind of age, he originally thought that this young member was only a lowly handyman in the team. He was proven otherwise.

Fine. Lets give it a shot. He made the decision after looking at Su Pings calm stance for a while.

Got it! Fan Ganglie sighed in great relief and turned to Lin Mokong. Mister Lin, please assist us.

Lin Mokong also recovered from his thoughts and clenched his teeth.

Fair enough.

From his pet space, he summoned two Astral Petsa sixth-rank adult Flame Bird at the peak of its average potential, and an intermediate seventh-rank Six-Armed Gorilla, which was the current strongest Astral Pet he could use.

The gorilla was almost eight meters high when standing. It was full of chunky muscles covered by dark-brown fur. Four of its six arms were carrying weapons, while the remaining two hands had spiky knuckles equipped. It also had a black chain vest protecting its chest area.

By summoning the gorilla, Lin Mokong had revealed his trump card. Thanks to his careful training and well-prepared equipment, this intermediate seventh-rank pet could face enemies of the same ranks upper stage. Or, it could even keep a lower eighth-rank opponent busy for a while.

My word Ye Chenshan was once again astounded. That gear should cost at least several million. Thats enough money to buy another advanced pet.

Seeing Lin Mokong going all-out, Fan Ganglie also decided to provide all he hada rock-type, lower stage seventh-rank Mountain Mover, and an eighth-rank Azure Quetzalcoatl. This Azure Quetzalcoatl was a half-breed between a dragon-type pet and something weaker. All things said, it was still an eighth-rank battle pet.

Augmentation!

Fan Ganglie unleashed astral power from his body and cast four basic augmentation effects of the seventh rank consecutively. Such enhancement was potent enough to make a crippled old man run faster than an Olympic champion.

Apart from those basic moves, Fan Ganglie also applied a special skill to the Azure Quetzalcoatl called Double Team.

Under its effect, the creature would split into two.

This was Fan Ganglies core skill which was meant to double the strength of his strongest Astral Pet. The clone was not a simple phantom to trick the sensesit could fight just like the host.

*Whistle* This team is pretty good, Ye Chenshan commented, Maybe the best amateur team Ive ever seen.

But things didnt go as planned. As soon as Fan Ganglie and Lin Mokong ordered their pets to attack, the body of the Magical Corpse Beast suddenly exploded, sending countless bone spikes into the surrounding area that immediately wiped out the skeleton army.
