Beastmaster of the Ages

The Fortuna Ranking didn’t have a single red and black name, and perhaps none would appear even if one looked through all of history. Maybe red and gold might have been found, but red and black was impossible. How could someone from a mundi be able to make it on the Fortuna Ranking at under a hundred years old?

It would already be considered excellent for someone like Huang Daoxiong to make it on the Fortuna Ranking when he was over three hundred years old in a few decades. The Fortuna Ranking didn’t have many yellow surnames.

”Today, I’ll break a historical record!” For a moment, Tianming’s blood boiled. Red and black! As long as he made it onto the ranking, no matter what rank he was, his unique combination of name colors would definitely stand out.

”I can only send ten challenge letters at a time, so I need to choose carefully.” He could send challenge letters through the myriadpath ring. Tianming scanned the bottom thousand names of the lengthy Fortuna Ranking.

While he was looking, Yin Chen reminded him, ”You need... to escape... again again!”

”What’s going on?”

”You have... been noticed. Many people... are coming,” it said.

”No foundationeers, right?” Tianming asked.

”Of course,” Yin Chen said. There were only eighteen foundationeers among the fortuna disciples. But even if there were foundationeers among them, Tianming wouldn’t be afraid; not even Zi Zhen could catch him.

He just needed to be careful of traps and not get trapped or poisoned. Otherwise, he could roam freely in Myriadpath Valley.

”Let them come then. I hope some are ranked lower than nine thousand on the Fortuna Ranking so I have a chance to get on the ranking,” Tianming coldly said. When he challenged others, they might not accept the challenge, but would those people not accept it?

”How many people are coming?”

”Five hundred.”

Wow, two hundred more than last time.

”After the lesson with Huang Daoxiong, this group probably doesn’t have anyone weaker than eighth-level cosmic cartographers.... They really are taking me seriously!” Tianming laughed. More than five hundred gold ring disciples at least as strong as him all wanted him dead. Just that treatment alone was unique in Myriadpath Valley.

He simply went to the outskirts of the Ascension Colosseum and waited for them. With Yin Chen around, he would know what they wanted to do in advance. If it weren’t for wanting to get on the ranking, they wouldn’t even have a chance to touch him.

The movement of more than five hundred people was quite spectacular. Along the way, many people asked why they were gathering in a large gang. After chatting, they learned about the matter of House Huang.

”It’s ridiculous. An ancient family like House Huang is being played like a fiddle by a tainted beastmaster from a mundus?”

”It’s mainly because Reverend Lan Yun insists on going against Reverend Daolie. Otherwise, that kid would’ve died long ago.”

”Just now, more than three hundred gold ring disciples who were are at least eighth-level cosmic cartographers couldn’t catch that tainted beastmaster. Can you believe it?”

”I really don’t believe it. Let’s see what’s going on.”

Thus, the group of people trying to surround Tianming increased even more.

A group of people came with great fanfare, wanting to catch Tianming off guard. However, when they arrived at the Ascension Colosseum, they were surprised to see that their prey was right there at the entrance, looking impatient.

The disciples were all stunned for a moment.

”Why are you so slow? I want to find someone outside the top nine thousand on the Fortuna Ranking and get on the ranking today. Which bold hero wants to be my stepping stone? I’ll give you a chance to challenge me with his strength.”

Tianming, a black ring disciple who was less than a hundred years old, stood with his hands behind his back in front of hundreds of people from Myriadpath Valley. He remained unchanged, smiling and joking. Those not in the know might even think he was their leader. Just his demeanor and calm made many onlookers exchange glances.

”This kid’s quite interesting.”

”I heard his speed’s amazing. He’s like a slippery eel. With Reverend Lan Yun backing him up, he’s become even more arrogant.”

”The people in front of him are basically all on the Fortuna Ranking, but they’re actually being looked down upon. It’s amazing.”

”They really can’t catch him? Let me see.... Isn’t that Huang Daosheng? He has quite a reputation on the Fortuna Ranking and has absorbed quite a lot of Myriadpath Sourcespring. His talent has grown a lot. Not even he could catch that arrogant little fellow?”

Huang Daosheng! That name was mentioned by many.

”Last time when they chased Li Tianming, it seems like Huang Daosheng wasn’t there. This time, it’s mainly to see if he can change anything!”

”Isn’t he the most beloved son of Reverend Daolie? The one known as the Little Lion King, who’s a skyghoul with the brilliant goldlion aspect?”

”That’s right! It’s said that an eminent intended to take Huang Daosheng as a disciple and even proclaimed that Huang Daosheng is a prospective eminent!”

”A prospective eminent? That’s impressive! So he’s the hope for the advancement of House Huang? Once he becomes an eminent in the future, that’ll be amazing....”

”I just took a glance at this Little Lion King. He’s quite impressive. He looks small and thin, unlike his brothers, but... he has three legs!”

”Three legs?”

”You’ll see when you look at it. Haha.”

Tianming heard the discussions about Huang Daosheng several times. The ‘Sheng’ in his name meant eminent. When his aspect had manifested at his birth, he was probably entrusted with the expectation of becoming an eminent. Eminents were the masters of the astralscape, second only to the Valley Lord himself!

After Tianming spoke, the more than five hundred cold, angry, and murderous disciples fell silent for a moment. In the end, they didn’t try to surround and kill Tianming again in front of the Ascension Colosseum, but instead parted to make way for him to see the person they had set up in their group.

Tianming spotted him before the crowd split up. He was a different aspect of beast-type specter from Huang Daoxiong and Huang Daolie. Huang Daoxiong and Reverend Daolie were both over three meters tall, sturdy, and stalwart, with red hair and skin like a flaming evil lion standing upright.

But the Little Lion King was different. His appearance was very similar to a human, almost without the characteristics of a lion aspect skyghoul. His height and physique were similar to Tianming. He had long, slightly curly golden hair and a pair of dark blue eyes like two nova sources. Countless stars, denser than Huang Daoxiong’s by almost twice as much, shone within them. There were perhaps over five million.

Compared to his younger brother, Huang Daoxiong, he was elegant and gentlemanly, with fair skin, giving people a noble and gentlemanly feeling. Very perfect! His aura of a twelfth-level cosmic cartographer was also very strong.

”Perhaps he’s truly the top talent of Myriadpath Valley! He should be able to fight against ordinary foundationeers as a twelfth-level cosmic cartographer.” In terms of strength, Tianming maintained the necessary respect for such a strong person. He knew that even with his Fiveway Blitzrun, he still had to be very careful as he would die if he slipped up at all.

”Three legs?” Tianming heard someone discussing from afar. He was just thinking that beast-type skyghouls were all tall and strong, but this brilliant goldlion was so small among his clan members that he didn’t seem to have a matching size.

As a result, Tianming found out that he was overthinking things. The Little Lion King had a very bulging crotch that seemed to be hiding a big dragon not inferior to Huang Daoxiong. It didn’t affect his reproduction with the women within House Huang.

Tianming was speechless, understanding why everyone said he had three legs.
