Chapter 444: Chapter 319: Opponent, Level Eight Title Female Soul Pet Trainer

Translator: 549690339

Jia Yingcheng obviously had not reached the Soul Lord Level and couldn’t summon a fourth soul pet. The battle situation of triple control had become very obvious.

In the end, Jia Yingcheng raised his hand to admit defeat.

“Soul Hall Chu Chen is victorious.” The Main Judge saw Jia Yingcheng’s gesture and immediately stopped the battle, announcing the winner of the match.

The competition did not adopt an elimination system, but a record system. Jia Yingcheng had already sensed that he would lose this match, so instead of fighting to the death with Chu Mu’s soul pet, he would rather focus all his energy on the following contests.

After winning, Chu Mu withdrew his soul pets back into the Soul Pet Space. Just as he was about to leave the arena, he noticed that his opponent, Jia Yingcheng, was looking at him with a strange gaze.

“Chu Chen can’t be your real name, right?” Jia Yingcheng spoke up.

In Jia Yingcheng’s view, there were only a limited number of people in Dun City and the surrounding territories who could reach this level of strength at around the age of twenty. Jia Yingcheng felt that the person in front of him was most likely disguised as a top expert among the younger generation.

“My real name is not important. I am not from Dun City.” Chu Mu replied indifferently. After that, Chu Mu slowly descended from the battlefield.

Not long after Chu Mu left, the woman who had wanted to purchase his Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird came over elegantly.

She had a pair of bright eyes that would immediately captivate anyone who glanced at them. A teasing smile was on her beautiful cheeks, giving her a gentle and calmt demeanor.

Chu Mu was somewhat surprised that the person who wanted to buy his soul pet was such an outstanding woman in terms of both temperament and appearance.

“Miss Tinglan.” Jia Yingcheng, who had lost the battle, also passed by here and recognized this woman at a glance. He gave her a slight bow, with a respectful and slightly adoring expression on his face.

“Mhm.” The woman who was called Tinglan nodded and politely gestured for a moment before turning her gaze to Chu Mu, sizing him up slightly.

“Hello, Chu Chen. You are the owner of the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird, right?” Tinglan spoke with a gentle tone.

“Yeah, are you willing to offer 60 million to purchase it?” Chu Mu had a good impression of Tinglan, but he couldn’t help but think of Ye Qingzi for some reason.

Jia Yingcheng, who was on the side, happened to overhear their conversation and involuntarily dropped his jaw. He deliberately took another look at Chu Mu.

The Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird was a low-grade Monarch soul pet. With the three soul pets strengthened to the Monarch level, wouldn’t this kid have a total of four soul pets with combat power levels reaching Monarch level? And yet he didn’t sign a soul contract, and instead decided to sell it!

It was too extravagant, extravagantly infuriating. Even Jia Yingcheng, who was thirty years old, had only just managed to raise the combat power of his Blood Fury Abyss Beast to the Quasi-Monarch level. If it had not been for his soul pets being a stage higher, he would have lost even more miserably!

Jia Yingcheng also knew that there was no chance for him to get close to people like Tinglan. Now, Jia Yingcheng was even more certain that the name Chu Chen must be a fake and that this kid must be one of the top-ranking members of the surrounding territories who was bored and came to participate in exercises without age restrictions.

“60 million? Sister, you’re spending 60 million on a low-level Monarch soul pet…” The teenager beside her exclaimed in surprise.

“Yes, the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird is the demon spirit and winged type soul pet I have been searching for to be used as my second pet for my fourth soul. It’s more than suitable.” Tinglan spoke up.

“Second pet for the fourth soul…” Chu Mu showed a surprised look. So, it turns out that this charming woman in front of him was a Middle Thought Soul Master.

Chu Mu estimated the age of the woman to be around 25 years old. In fact, Chu Mu believed that even if this woman had reached 35 years old, she would still have a unique charm.

There aren’t many people who can reach the Middle Thought Soul Master’s level at the age of 25 since those under 30 belong to the youth generation.

“I almost forgot, I also have a privilege purchase which can save more than 10 million…” The teenager suddenly remembered something and blurted out.

“A privilege purchase? Do you have a level 7 title?” Chu Mu had just unlocked the title domain and asked with the flow of the conversation.

“It’s level 8. My sister has an 8th-level title in the Soul Hall!” The teenager corrected immediately.

Chu Mu looked at the young man, then turned his gaze back to the woman.

Since this woman was willing to buy Chu Mu’s Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird, it meant that she was also a member of the Soul Hall. It was very difficult to get a level 8 title within the Soul Hall. Even Chu Mu didn’t believe he could get it. It was unexpected that this gentle looking woman was actually an extremely powerful soul pet trainer!

“I’m very curious as to why someone with your strength still has a level 0 title. Did you just join the Soul Hall, or are you a member of the youth generation of the Soul Hall who has recently traveled abroad?” Tinglan asked.

“I just joined Soul Hall recently.” Chu Mu replied.

Since the other party had an 8th-level title and a purchasing privilege, Chu Mu quickly thought of a question and asked, “If you have an 8th-level title, do I not have to sell it to you at a price of 42 million?”

“Hm?” Tinglan gently raised her eyebrows, looking puzzled.

“I’m running short on money right now, so I can’t sell it to you at the Soul Hall discount price. Find someone else to trade with.” Chu Mu said seriously.

“…” The teenager had a speechless expression on his face.

Miss Tinglan was also momentarily stunned, and then burst into laughter.

Chu Mu looked at the reactions of the two, feeling puzzled. Was there something wrong with his words just now? Was it embarrassing to be short of money? It seemed that every soul pet trainer was short of money, and Chu Mu did not believe that this woman soul pet trainer, who was able to acquire an eighth-level title, would be well-off.

“The difference in the discount price is subsidized by the Soul Hall. That’s to say, you would still get 60 million, and I would only have to pay 42 million. It seems that you have indeed just joined the Soul Hall…” Tinglan explained with a smile.

“So that’s how it is.” Chu Mu laughed awkwardly, not paying too much attention to these details.

“Can I ask, where did you capture this Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird?” Ting Lan continued to ask.

“I don’t know the name of the place, it’s probably a lake within a valley.” Chu Mu replied.

“Is it Beast Lake Valley? I remember that place is one of a Monarch’s territories. A while ago, Da Kun and a few other hunters even took a bounty and purposely went there. Did they have their bounty snatched away by you?” the teenager intervened.

“Yes, I encountered a few people.” Chu Mu did not deny it, and as a member of the Soul Hall now, he didn’t believe those people would cause him trouble because of this.

“Actually, I’m the one who issued the bounty, and then they took it. But I didn’t expect the soul pet to end up in your hands, and your team’s strength is even stronger.” Ting Lan said.

“Yeah, let’s trade then.” Chu Mu casually nodded without correcting the girl’s so-called “team”.

“I’ve already instructed the official to deposit the money in your title account. All you have to do is go to the Soul Hall and withdraw it.” Ting Lan said.

“Oh, I’ll go and confirm it,” Chu Mu nodded.

“You! My sister already said she paid you the money, don’t you trust her? You have to go and confirm it on purpose. Do you think my sister, a dignified Soul Hall female official, would cheat you of your soul pet?” The teenager couldn’t stand Chu Mu’s dismissive attitude towards Ting Lan.

“I want to confirm it. Is there a problem?” Chu Mu said indifferently.

“Do you know, not only in Dun City but even in World City, my sister has a great reputation. Many people even wish to give away their Monarch-level soul pets to her. And you, with your suspicious attitude, it’s really rude!”

Chu Mu raised his eyebrows, glanced at the somewhat biased teenager, and then took a look at the woman. After a while, he finally said, “If people give, why not accept it? Why spend money to buy it?”

“Not interested!” The teenager answered on behalf of Ting Lan.

Ting Lan pulled the teenager to the side with a reproachful look and apologized with a smile, “My brother, Teng Hai, is still young and reckless in speaking. Please don’t mind. For a fair trade, you should still go and confirm it. You can give me the soul pet here the day after tomorrow.”

“The day after tomorrow should be my third match. After the match, I will give you the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird.” Chu Mu said.

“Hmm” Ting Lan nodded and politely said goodbye to Chu Mu. Then, she took the aggrieved-looking teenager Teng Hai and left.

Watching the woman and the teenager leave, Chu Mu also became somewhat lost in thought.

“Ting Lan? She should be one of the young generation experts in the Soul Hall. I don’t know her true strength, but to achieve the Level 8 Title, she must be very strong.” Chu Mu muttered to himself.

Now when Chu Mu needed money, no matter the woman’s identity, as long as he got the money, he would feel at ease.

Upon arriving at the Soul Hall, Chu Mu inquired to the Soul Hall treasurer, and indeed, there was an additional 60 million funds under his name.

Chu Mu’s target was now second place. However, second place only had 30 million, so Chu Mu couldn’t help but worry about the other 10 million.

The so-called combat record match in the annual competition is a common battle format in the soul pet world.

Each participant’s record is expressly counted by a person in charge. In the first round, each participant is paired with a randomly selected competitor.

After the first round, half of the winners and losers are decided. Those who win their first match will find an opponent for their second match from among the other first-round winners.

Those who lose their first match will randomly draw their second match from among the other losers.

Simply put, people with the same combat record will fight against each other.

This type of tournament format may have lucky winners in the first and second rounds, but by the third round, there will hardly be any opportunists left.

Chu Mu’s luck wasn’t too bad. During the second round, he encountered an opponent with a slightly weaker strength than Jia Yingcheng. It was a small favor from heaven for the money-strapped Chu Mu. After all, saving most of his soul pet’s combat power in the second round meant that he had a better chance of winning the third round.

It was the third day and Chu Mu’s third match. As he entered the battlefield, Chu Mu finally understood why Miss Ting Lan wanted to trade on this day…

“So you already knew we would meet in the third round…” Chu Mu chuckled bitterly as he looked at the gentle and elegant woman before him, momentarily speechless.

“I was just guessing. I think you probably haven’t shown your full strength, right?” Ting Lan smiled lightly.

(Generally, I go out in the evening after finishing writing, and do not come back until around eleven o’clock. After I come back, I will always check the status of “Pet Charm”, which has become a daily habit. Serious issues that occurred a few days ago were discovered around eleven or twelve o’clock also because of this reason. Today, this problem occurred again… I can’t even wash away my shame by jumping into the river this time. Everyone is annoyed waiting for the update, in fact when I discovered the chapter at ten o’clock lying in the upload directory, cold sweat was running down! I was terrified for nearly half an hour, and finally decided to finish the early morning chapter first. I will add an extra chapter tomorrow. To be honest, besides adding chapters, I really don’t know how to explain this issue, and how to calm down the wave of resentment and heavy doubts about Little Fish’s character in everyone’s hearts. If you want to doubt, there’s really nothing to say. This time I can’t even forgive myself. An extra chapter is to be added tomorrow as compensation, and three chapters will be updated on the weekend…although adding chapters won’t make up for anything, that’s all I can do…) (To be continued.
