Supreme Tamer

This boiling scene lasted a long time, and the judges intentionally waited for the high pitched cries to slowly subside before announcing the results of the Beast Fighting competition.

The Honor Challenge had significantly increased in difficulty, especially during the fourth wave of Beast Fights, which posed nearly insurmountable challenges for the second-tier Soul Pets. The ranking was determined solely by the duration the challengers could withstand.

What was originally a 30-minute arduous battle had turned into a breathtakingly dangerous battle lasting a whole 50 minutes, until the completion of the notoriously treacherous Honor Challenge!

This required more than just perseverance and courage – it demanded a commendable fighting conviction that even elicited admiration from the older generation!

Finally, the judges announced the results!

At this moment, tens of thousands of eyes were fixed on Chu Mu, waiting to see what this miracle Beast Fighting hero would do next. Would he gesture to the crowd or return to the resting area with honor?

…

Soon, everyone discovered that the awe-inspiring youth, despite his injuries, slowly walked towards the Soul Hall seat.

Chu Mu did not head to the resting area but instead, to everyone’s surprise, walked up to a charming and beautiful woman.

“Qingzi, I’ll have to trouble you again to help me heal my Soul Pets.” Chu Mu grinned, his black pupils staring at Ye Qingzi.

Ye Qingzi looked at the carefree man standing in front of her and didn’t know what to say for a while.

He chose not to linger in the Beast Fighting Arena filled with tens of thousands of onlookers, nor to take advantage of this opportunity to prove himself to others. Instead, he simply walked up to her and spoke such simple words.

Chu Mu’s actions made Ye Qingzi’s heart race.

Ye Qingzi knew that immediately after the battle ended, what Chu Mu always thought of was not glory, but the Soul Pets that fought alongside him through thick and thin.

However, from the man’s gaze, Ye Qingzi could sense another emotion that she understood even without him saying anything – Chu Mu’s eyes were telling her that he could attain glory from the First Realm, and he would definitely attain the final glory in the Ninth Realm, winning the hidden inheritance for her!

Ye Qingzi’s eyes grew misty at this thought, remembering the heart-wrenching pain when Night Dream Reflection was shattered in the final moment. Now, seeing the man with unwavering determination standing before her, a sudden surge of emotion overcame her. It made staring eye-to-eye with Chu Mu feel dazzling and a certain thing made her eyes glisten with unshed tears, not daring to let them fall in front of Chu Mu.

“Qingzi, what’s wrong?” Chu Mu saw Ye Qingzi staring at him in silence, noticing something in her eyes, and asked in confusion.

Chu Mu didn’t quite understand what a girl was thinking, so when he saw Ye Qingzi’s expression, he was utterly clueless. In the end, Chu Mu could only scratch his head and, with a rare simple-minded look on his cold face, said, “If it’s inconvenient for you to heal, I’ll do it myself…”

Ye Wansheng, who was standing nearby, suddenly pounded his chest and stomped, cursing, “Idiot, take advantage of the ice melting and hurry up and give her a hug! Do you think you’ll have chances like this all the time?”

Chu Mu hesitated, not knowing what to do since he was scolded. Of course, Chu Mu wanted to give Ye Qingzi a hug, but he still had blood on his body, which seemed a bit inappropriate, right?

However, since Ye Wansheng had said so, Chu Mu decided to seize the opportunity as they weren’t easy to come by. Giving her a hug wouldn’t be a big deal.

Ye Qingzi snapped out of her daze. She gave a fierce glare at the troublemaker Ye Wansheng, quickly wiping the corner of her eyes, and put on a gentle and elegant smile. “Give me your Soul Pets…”

Ye Qingzi had only spoken half of her sentence when the scent of Chu Mu’s blood mixed with the manly aroma struck her, and she was seized by his strong arms.

Chu Mu did not wait for Ye Qingzi to sober up completely and decisively gave her a big bear hug!

Although it was just a shoulder hug, which looked like the gestures of old friends meeting up, this action was undoubtedly intimate and embarrassing for Ye Qingzi, who always maintained a distant and aloof demeanor.

Having just finished his battle, Chu Mu was still the center of attention for tens of thousands of people. This hug undoubtedly gave the onlookers the perfect reason to jeer and hoot!

Soon, the cheers, which were as loud as applause, erupted in the Beast Fighting Arena!

“Let go of me quickly…” Ye Qingzi’s cheeks turned completely red, her beautiful face visibly flustered and embarrassed, and she couldn’t help but resent Chu Mu for not considering how she would feel about his bold and clumsy gestures. She wished she could throw him back into the Beast Fighting Arena to teach him a lesson.

Tens of thousands of people were watching them, and Ye Qingzi would have preferred it if Chu Mu had done something excessive with her in the dark forest earlier, rather than holding her tight in front of so many people. Despite her calm exterior, Ye Qingzi was still a girl, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

Ye Wansheng, standing beside them, gave Chu Mu a thumbs up, wearing a gleeful expression on his face.

Shang Heng and Zhao Cheng were about to sincerely congratulate Chu Mu, but seeing this scene, they stood aside with interest, watching the pair.

Ting Lan was going to stand up from her seat, but she quickly dismissed the thought and watched Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi with her beautiful and lively eyes.

Not far away, under Princess Jinrou’s veil, the corner of her mouth slightly curled up in a subtle expression, which was hard to decipher her true feelings.

Further away in the seats, Shen Yicheng’s face looked bad. He swung his sleeves and left with a sullen face.

The harder a woman was to get, the more ambitious a man would care. Witnessing Ye Qingzi falling into another man’s embrace, especially when that man had a blood feud with him, Shen Yicheng felt as if his lungs were about to explode at that moment.

He couldn’t let others see his loss of dignity and anger; it would make him seem calculating. So, full of resentment, Shen Yicheng left the Beast Fighting Arena!

“Using all your strength in the First Realm, you really are an ignorant fool. Soon, you will know how foolish you are, but for now, enjoy your pride!” After Shen Yicheng left, he said to himself in a voice only he could hear.

…

“You can let go now…” Finally, Ye Qingzi couldn’t bear the burning gazes of so many people any longer.

She didn’t want to directly push Chu Mu away, so her delightful delicate little foot stomped heavily on Chu Mu’s instep.

Chu Mu felt the pain and released Ye Qingzi’s tender, boneless body.

“Scoundrel.” Ye Qingzi glared at Chu Mu with a flushed face, her expression charming and enchanting, which made Chu Mu even more infatuated.

After cursing Chu Mu, Ye Qingzi, still blushing, didn’t dare to stay in the limelight any longer and ran out of the Beast Fighting Arena, looking panicked and helpless.

“I just said it casually; I didn’t expect you to really do it. You have guts! Just so you know, when Qingzi gets angry, she’s scarier than a Tenth Rank quasi-monarch. Chu Chen, you better watch out for yourself…” Ye Wansheng laughed loudly and patted Chu Mu’s shoulder. After that, the instigator also stepped away and headed in the direction Ye Qingzi had walked.

Chu Mu had a thick-skinned face and watched Ye Qingzi’s panicked departure with a kind smile, his face looking as if he hadn’t done anything wrong.

…

Ye Qingzi did not bear a grudge against Chu Mu’s soul pets because of his reckless action and still carefully healed Chu Mu’s wounded Soul Pet Masters, pacifying the injured soul pets in the Soul Pet Space.

However, throughout the healing process, Ye Qingzi was still stubbornly not speaking to Chu Mu, making him feel quite awkward.

Ye Qingzi wasn’t annoyed by Chu Mu’s embrace; if there were no one around, or if they had already left the Beast Fighting Arena, she wouldn’t have minded Chu Mu’s embrace, feeling only slight embarrassment at the beginning, but accepting it willingly.

However, Chu Mu listened to his brother’s instigation and caused a scene in front of so many people. At that time, tens of thousands of eyes were watching them. Thinking about the gazes of the people, Ye Qingzi felt her whole body burning, and her fair skin turned pink…

Chu Mu didn’t understand the situation and thought Ye Qingzi was complaining about his impulsive embrace, unaware that it was the context of the situation. So, even if he regretted his impulsive actions, it didn’t help; he could only speak to the ice beauty casually while Ye Qingzi treated his soul pets.

…

Zhan Ye’s Limb Regeneration ability could only recover once a day, so it would take six days for a complete recovery.

The First Realm would continue for a few more days, so Chu Mu didn’t need to worry about not having enough recovery time for his soul pets.

…

The tenth day.

After ten days, all the battles and Honor Challenges of the First Realm finally came to an end!

In these ten days, countless people had encountered failure in the First Realm, despite their utmost enthusiasm; many were battered and exhausted before barely passing the realm; and many suffered tragic casualties in the pursuit of glory in the First Realm.

The World Decree was cruel, and strength always came first.

After experiencing the First Realm of the World Decree, countless young people realized that their strength was far from enough to stand in the world, and they needed more training and hard work!

However, among the myriad people, a very select few would emerge with outstanding strength and stand proudly on the stage of honor that everyone dreamed of!

The names of these individuals were deeply engraved on a huge stone tablet that stood like a massive screen in the center of the World Plaza. Majestic and imposing, it exuded both an awe-inspiring aura and the solemnity of ancient history!
