Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1299 - 125: Dark Gold Chasing the Waves

As they say, a person’s reputation precedes them, especially those with a notable status who pay close attention to their public image. As soon as Jiu Kong took the stage, he placed his hands behind his back and gazed up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. Clad in a white robe, he exuded the lonely charm of a master.

At that moment, Jiu Kong remained silent, waiting for his opponent’s surprised reaction—a situation he had become accustomed to through frequent experience.

However.

The entire arena was utterly silent; not even a whisper could be heard, let alone exclamations. Jiu Kong, somewhat surprised, shifted his gaze downward only to see that his opponent was a player dressed in a black robe and wearing a mask.

"Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained?"

Jiu Kong’s relaxed demeanor vanished, and he scrutinized Su Ran intently, even drawing out his crystal-clear ice fan, which indicated the high regard he had for Su Ran.

At this martial arts competition, the number of opponents Jiu Kong took seriously could be counted on one’s fingers, and this ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained’ was indeed one of them. From his last life-and-death battle with the foreigner, Jiu Kong had already perceived the gap between him and Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained—this man was undoubtedly a formidable rival in the tournament!

"Incredible, to think that a master like Jiu Kong would recognize someone as uncouth as myself, what an honor!"

Su Ran looked at Jiu Kong with a smile that was not quite a smile, "This is our first meeting, please take care of me."

"Brother Spilt Water, your reputation far exceeds mine, so please stop mocking me."

Jiu Kong shook his head with a sigh, unfolded his ice fan, then snapped it closed again, "Actually, this isn’t our first meeting. I watched your entire fight against that foreigner, Stacey. Your performance was spectacular, and you brought glory to our Huaxia Human Race and avenged me in the process."

"Are you talking about that life-and-death battle? It’s a pity his brother didn’t come; it’s somewhat regrettable."

Su Ran was surprised to see Jiu Kong showing weakness voluntarily; this was somewhat out of character for him. Strange indeed!

"His brother?"

"Um, the stench is too strong."

"..."

Jiu Kong cleared his throat before continuing, "In the upcoming battles, you’re the one who should take care of me."

"Sure, sure."

Su Ran was not as modest as Jiu Kong, and his tone was stern, "I will definitely take care of you later."

"..."

Jiu Kong suddenly lost any desire to continue the conversation with Su Ran, his brow furrowed slightly, inwardly annoyed by Su Ran’s arrogant words, yet he didn’t show it outwardly.

With that statement, Jiu Kong had already realized that he and this ’Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained’ were on different paths, and there was no need to befriend each other. No point in wasting words where opinions diverged.

"Hmm?"

Seeing Jiu Kong revert to his aloof demeanor, Su Ran could guess the problem but didn’t take it seriously. The two were destined to be rivals; there was no need to feign politeness, and being straightforward wasn’t so bad.

"My apologies!"

As soon as the system notification sounded, Jiu Kong immediately summoned his pet, the Wave Chasing Eagle, and commanded it to attack towards Su Ran.

"Hmm? How come your Wave Chasing Eagle looks different from before?"

Su Ran wasn’t idle either; he summoned his Dark Bone Eagle right away, curious to see whether his Bone Eagle or this notorious Wave Chasing Eagle was more formidable!

But when his gaze landed on the Wave Chasing Eagle, he unexpectedly noticed that the eagle’s feather color was no longer golden but was now marked with bands of dark golden halos, giving it an oddly unmatched appearance.

"On Pet Island, I luckily got a Pet Evolution Pill, and this Wave Chasing Eagle has successfully evolved into a Dark Gold Pet!"

Jiu Kong explained with a boastful tone, watching the scene of two eagles battling each other in the sky, sarcastically pointing out Su Ran’s overestimation of himself.

As the situation stood, Dark Gold Pets were absolutely at the apex of the pyramid. None had appeared on the pet rankings yet, so the existence of the Wave Chasing Eagle was definitely a legend not to be ignored!

The strength displayed by the Dark Gold Wave Chasing Eagle was sure to blow all players’ minds!

This Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, even with its numerous pets, posed no threat in front of his Wave Chasing Eagle! Yet, this fool dared to dream that a mere bone eagle could withstand the onslaught of the Wave Chasing Eagle—what a delusion! freёnovelkiss.com

It wasn’t hard to imagine that what would follow was a pet show dominated by the Wave Chasing Eagle. It would first eliminate this bone eagle and then deal with Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, missing the prime opportunity to charm a pet. Let’s see how he could recover from this disadvantage now!

Thinking of taking care of himself?

How dare he mouth such big words, not even checking if he had the capability!

Jiu Kong’s gaze grew more intense, and he had already pictured Su Ran scurrying around in panic, a cold smile appearing on his lips. He was going to teach this kid a good lesson to show him that it’s better to be modest!

"Holy cow, it really evolved, no wonder its color changed. With this Wave Chasing Eagle’s Dark Gold strength, it should be able to top the pet rankings."

Su Ran, noticing that the bone eagle in the sky was no match for the Wave Chasing Eagle, exclaimed, "Jiu Kong, bro, your luck is really enviable. If this Wave Chasing Eagle had evolved into a Dark Gold Pet earlier, Stacey might have had no chance at all."

"..."

Jiu Kong didn’t waste words with Su Ran, his ice fan waving continuously, as the ice elements began to brew quickly, growing in intensity. Clearly, he was preparing a powerful move to strike Su Ran hard.

In midair.

The Wave Chasing Eagle’s strong and powerful wings flapped rapidly, sending intense gusts surging out, transforming into sharp air blades that sliced towards the Dark Bone Eagle, seemingly sure to inflict fatal wounds!

However.

Just at this critical moment, Su Ran directly summoned Wang Cai.

"Woof woof!"

As soon as Wang Cai appeared, it immediately leveraged its innate advantage, applying Luck Suppression fully on the Wave Chasing Eagle in the air.

In an instant.

Smoke vanished, and the gusts and strong winds all disappeared; the Wave Chasing Eagle crashed to the ground.

Jiu Kong’s smirk froze on his face, his movements halted, and the powerful move he had been brewing was declared a failure.

"This... how is this possible?"

Seeing the Wave Chasing Eagle curled up, no longer displaying the peerless elegance of a Dark Gold Pet, Jiu Kong showed a look of shock, no longer caring about the competition, he hurried over to the Wave Chasing Eagle. Allowing it to transform back into a young eagle form, he embraced it and asked sternly, "Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, what sorcery did you use? Were you exploiting a system bug?"

From his words, it was clear Jiu Kong hadn’t even considered Wang Cai as a potential Platinum Pet. After all, with Wang Cai naturally looking like a common mutt, who could imagine it was a noble Platinum Pet?!

"Maybe your Wave Chasing Eagle caught a cold from sleeping chilly at night, had a fever and no strength—how could it display its power?"

Su Ran started to blather again, making things up as he went along, "Jiu Kong, bro, our pets are like children who haven’t grown up; how can they manage without covering up with a blanket while sleeping? Now you’re stunned, huh?"

"..."

Jiu Kong felt darkness before his eyes and took a deep breath, nearly passing out from anger due to Su Ran’s words.
