Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1649 - Qiang of the Crimsonjade Line

The revelation that Tianming was a nonabane had attracted a lot of attention. Many elites from powerful worlds had access to watch all the battles in the wondersky realm. They could immediately tell that Team Rou was facing off against Team Yingming, a party that had the potential to rank in the top ten! Team Rou's luck in the second round obviously hadn’t carried over to the third.

"This’ll be exciting...."

"Not really. Li Tianming just had bad luck. Overall, Team Rou's powers are rather mediocre. They might not even be able to defeat the three violethorn draconians, let alone Yanwu Ming or Whitejade Ying. Those are the top talents of the mysterians."

"For the nonabane to be able to go to the second part of the event, he'll need at least four teammates that are about his level of power. The difference in power between the two teams is just far too huge."

Such discussions echoed throughout the audiences of countless worlds. The third set of matches would be the last for the first part of the event. As such, those that survived and made it to the third match were the strong ones. Quite a few of them had come from the two deific-class worlds, Skyway Monostar and Bistar respectively. Yanwu Ming and Ying's presence only helped Tianming's reputation spread across the three Skyway worlds even more. Their wondersky realms were all linked, and any mysterian could visit them without restriction.

Xiao suddenly stood up on the grassy plains, unable to hold his laughter back when he saw his sister facing off against Tianming. "A wonderful coincidence!" He felt utterly vindicated. "It's your fault for stopping me from joining the Astralium Seeking event! You won't be able to go, either!"

He was already counting on his sister to give Tianming a debilitating blow. Even though Tianming wouldn't actually die in the wondersky realm, it would still soothe Xiao somewhat.

"Xiao," someone called out from behind. When he turned around, he saw red clouds form the shape of a person who didn't have any facial features. However, he was blood red, unlike Xiao's white body. Every inch of his body seemed covered in glittering blood jade.

"Qiang!" Xiao seemed a little nervous. He took a while to calm down and said, "What’d you come here for? I don't want to be involved with anyone from the Crimsonjade line."

The youth called Qiang chuckled. "Don't be so nervous. I did defeat quite a lot of you Whitejade folks, but I have nothing against a brat like you. I'm just here to ask you about Li Tianming."

"I see...." Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, though it wasn’t easy to tell from his featureless face. He knew that although Qiang looked friendly, he was actually a fiendish slaughterer who was currently at the ninth level of the Tranquil Battlefield. He had a shocking title: he was a precentennial paragon, probably the highest honor anyone from the new generation could receive. If it weren’t for the fact that he was still too young, he could have left for the Skydome Battlefield, given his strength.

"Ask anything you want," Xiao said with his head lowered. Even with his high status, this wasn't someone he could just shrug off. Qiang was easily the strongest person under the age of a hundred, and was everything Xiao dreamed of becoming.

"Tell me everything you learned about Li Tianming in your very first encounter with him. Spare no detail," said the youth shrouded in bloody mist. His head looked like a smooth, oval gem that seemed semi-transparent, through which his blood vessels, brains and undeveloped eyeballs could be seen.

"Alright!" Even though there was a lot of conflict between the Crimsonjade and Whitejade lines, Xiao still worshiped Qiang. He dutifully told him everything he could remember.

"Is that all? He's located three starlengths away? Looks like the humans of Bistar are quite concerned about him."

"Yeah, that's all I know." Xiao looked up, curious. "You seem to be quite concerned about him, too. Why is that?"

"Nothing much. My son is in Celestial Beings. I'm just trying to learn more about a potential enemy for his sake."

"I see. How meticulous of you."

"I'll be taking my leave now." The youth disappeared in the wind. The fact that his son was able to join the Celestial Beings team meant that he was no doubt among the top of faceless specter youths under thirty. The father and son pair were the best of the best.

Qiang himself was quite a miracle, being around ninety. He bore a son in his sixties, which was considered really early, as far as faceless specters were concerned. His own parents were thousands of years old. Usually, those who gave birth too early would end up with children that rarely, if ever, inherited much talent from their parents.

However, Qiang's son was different. He was almost like a clone of Qiang, having the same looks and talent, as well as the same growth experiences. Even those who had met both of them would think that they looked more like siblings than father and child, perhaps even twins. They were quite the miraculous pair among the mysterians, with nobody among them that didn't know of their reputation. Even their goals and aspirations were aligned, with the son tracing in the steps of the father without any deviation.

"I really hope that the next one to join the Astralium Seeking and dominate there will be me! Once Celestial Beings makes it to the second round, they'll automatically disband and compete with one another. I hope Long will bring glory to Skyway Tristar and outshine the ones from Monostar and Bistar, perhaps even the divine wonderian!"

The faceless specters saw no point in competing with those from skypiercer- and heliacal-class worlds. Their glory only mattered when measured against other mysterians and the divine wondersky race!

Incidentally, the mysterious girl that joined hadn't shown her skills yet. In the past few days, Celestial Beings had only needed one person to win all three of their matches. They were already waiting for their prey on the supergravity star, Astralium.

After fantasizing about their bright future, Xiao turned his eyes back to the broadcast. "Huh?!" He was shocked to find Tianming leaving his party. Based on his trajectory, it was highly likely that he would run into the violethorn draconians!
