“As far as I know about Beast Trainer Sect, the cultivation base of the mystical beasts they can control will basically not exceed theirs. At most, they are at the same level, and even that is a very rare match. After all, the Yao race is always waiting in the dark. As long as the cultivation base of the controlled beasts exceeds that of their masters, the control will be weakened and the beasts will be easily turned against their masters by the Yao race. It is not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen in combat. So…”

Luo Dajiang paused for a moment and then continued, “For those of us who have experience in dealing with mystical beasts, we often try our best to kill the beasts before fighting the beast controllers. After all, the fighting strength and savagery of the controlled beasts are not as good as they were, and their innate abilities have become very weak as well. So, their strength is definitely at least one level weaker than the original. In fact, they are not difficult to kill.”

Tie Qingcang snorted. “What’s the point of telling this now? We all know about this. The problem now is that although our disciples have excellent cultivation base, they have never seen mystical beasts. In the face of the sudden appearance of those savage beasts, it’s already good enough for them to not cry due to fear. It is too dangerous for them to fight those beasts rashly. If something bad really happens, I’m worried that it will leave some emotional shadows in them.”

It was indeed a tricky problem, and it would be a major crisis for Residence of Nine Supremes if it could not be solved.

While frowning, Yun Yang said slowly, “You don’t have to worry about this. Take the pills and make the breakthrough, I’ll think of some way…Alas, it may not work as they are not prepared in advance. But, we have no other way now…Desperate times call for desperate measures.”

“What is your solution, Boss?” Everyone was so curious about Yun Yang’s method that they had no mood to take the pills and make the breakthrough.

Yun Yang did not answer them; instead, he gathered all ten disciples and gave each of them a small bead. “You will wear this bead tomorrow in battle. If you meet a mystical beast, you can try to persuade it with the bead…Just try to communicate. I think it will be effective.”

All eyes grew wide in an instant.

Try to persuade? Try to communicate?

With mystical beasts?

Could they understand?

This…this was the desperate measure he mentioned?

“You don’t have to be so surprised, and you don’t need to know what the beads in your hands are. All you need to know is that this thing has a very good effect on mystical beasts. When you are fighting a mystical beast, you just need to say, ‘I’ve got good stuff here’…

“There is one other thing you should be aware of, that is you can never allow anyone to take the beads from your hands. If anyone tries to do that, swallow it immediately. Have you all remembered what I just said?”

“Yes.”

Yun Xiuxin and the other disciples were naturally very puzzled by Yun Yang’s countermeasures, but they also knew that this was not the time to ask questions. They just needed to follow the instructions; the master would not hurt them.

Throughout the night, there was hardly a light or sound on the stand belonging to Residence of Nine Supremes. The stands were separated from each other by extremely thick white fog, so even if there were lights or sounds, they were all completely obscured.

So, no one knew what was going on at Residence of Nine Supremes’ side.

As for Residence of Nine Supremes’ opponent, Beast Trainer Sect, it was a sleepless night, for they were planning and preparing the whole night.

“For our sect, tomorrow’s battle is a tough one!” Qin Ruogu’s expression was grave.

“Our sect is different from Thousand Mountains Sect or Illusory Sword Sect. As that old codger Liu Chengfeng said, whether his sect wins or loses, it’s still one of the bottom three sects with lower-cla.s.s Celestial Luck Banners. But, we are one of the middle three sects, and once we are defeated, we will fall to the bottom three, which is equivalent to falling one major tier. The drop in the rankings of Thousand Mountains Sect and Illusory Sword Sect did not actually cause any real losses, but we…Once we are defeated, our losses will be significant.”

“We must win this battle because we cannot afford to lose! I must warn you beforehand though, if you are defeated because of the absolute difference in strength, no one will blame you. But, if someone is defeated because of carelessness, you will have to atone for your sins by killing yourself in front of the Ancestral Master!”

The look in Qin Ruogu’s eyes now was particularly fierce and frightening.

Everyone nodded, and no one was perfunctory. After all, they all knew the seriousness of the consequences of losing the battle, so they did not think Qin Ruogu was making a mountain out of a molehill.

“Now, let’s discuss specific strategies.” Qin Ruogu took a deep breath and his expression became calm.

“Our goal is to win three matches, that’s all!” Said an old man with white beard and hair, and a wrinkled face, his eyes flas.h.i.+ng. “Residence of Nine Supremes’ formation has reached the acme of the arts of formation. It is the most powerful formation I’ve ever seen in my life, so it is impossible for us to defeat them in the match of formations. Personally, I suggest giving up the match of formations and not wasting our energy.”

“I couldn’t agree more with Uncle-Master! We really can’t win in the match of formations,” Qin Ruogu said. “In your opinion, Uncle-Master, what are our chances in the remaining four matches?

“Our sect’s strongest fighting force is you, Uncle-Master. As a peak fourth-tier Saint, you are our greatest trump card.”

Qin Ruogu asked, “In your opinion, what is the real level of cultivation base the few men who fought today, that Luo Dajiang, Tie Qingcang, and Yun Yang? If you were to fight, could you possibly defeat any of them?”

The wrinkles on the old man’s face deepened at the question.

He went through the day’s battle in his mind once again and said in a deep voice, “These three men should be Residence of Nine Supremes’ strongest fighting force. According to my observation…” He paused for a brief moment before saying, “…even if their cultivation base is not as good as mine, the gap is extremely small!”

Qin Ruogu’s face grew darker. “Doesn’t that mean that each of them has the cultivation base of a peak fourth-tier Saint? In other words, Residence of Nine Supremes has three peak fourth-tier Saints?”

The expressions of the others changed dramatically as well when they heard the shocking fact, and their hearts were filled with panic.

Illusory Sword Sect was by no means a weak sect when it could suppress Thousand Mountains Sect, who was famous for its formations. But, why had it not gone one step further? It was only because not only did the Beast Trainer Sect have mystical beasts, but also two fourth-tier Saints, while the Illusory Sword Sect only had one. The little difference in the high-end fighting force had determined the difference in the overall strength of the two sects.

But now, on the surface alone, Residence of Nine Supremes already had three peak fourth-tier Saints. In other words, its overall strength had already surpa.s.sed that of Beast Trainer Sect! Not to mention the fact that the match of formations was given up even before the battle started, because they were completely incapable of winning.

Under such a premise, it was extremely difficult, if not wishful thinking, to win three matches.

“The situation has not reached the point where it cannot be handled…” The old man hesitated for a moment and then said, “Our sect is famous for controlling mystical beasts, so we naturally have to find ways in this. I will take Blue Wind Wolf to battle tomorrow. By stimulating the fire of life, I should be able to raise the winning chance to more than eighty percent and defeat my opponent as soon as possible.”

Qin Ruogu’s face flickered and then slowly showed a deep sadness.
