Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1163 - Violetglory Star Genius Lin Feng

The moment Tianming had level-three privileges, he would be able to challenge the ancient idols as many times as he wanted. It was said that the ancient idols were legacies left behind by the Violetglory Sovereign, someone that was at least as powerful as the sun emperor. As he thought of that, Tianming left Perplexity Island and immediately headed for the Violetglory Pagoda. "Can I directly challenge someone for the right to be on the third level now that I can defeat first-level constelliers?"

"As your records state that you've been on the second level, you’re allowed to do so," the wondersky fairy said.

"As long as I get third-level privileges, I'll also be able to challenge the ancient idols as much as I want, right?" Tianming asked.

"You can."

"Great."

The cycle of the Violetglory Pagoda ran ten days, so Tianming only had one chance or he'd have to return again ten days later. His foes would be on the level of first-level constelliers, but if he was unlucky, he could get assigned to challenge a sixth-level constellier. The moment he stepped onto the battlefield, he would be able to change it to his liking by relying on Xian Xian and Lan Huang. As Ying Huo and Meow Meow were small in comparison, there wasn't much they could do to affect the flow of battle as a whole.

"Get ready. Your opponent, Chu Chuan, is entering the battlefield," said a voice.

After that, a black-haired youth appeared on the battlefield. Tianming gave his file a read. He was twenty-one years old, slightly younger than Tianming, and was a first-level constellier. He was a specter with much more potent physical abilities than Lingfeng and had more than four thousand stars in his eyes. He must have been quite reputable among others his age. Tianming also noticed a remark on his file: he was ranked nine thousand eight hundred and nineteen on the Violetglory ranking, something similar to the imperial star ranking.

"A twenty-three year old who isn't even a constellier is challenging for a spot on the third level?" Chu Chuan seemed rather puzzled. action

As Tianming was in a rush, he didn't bother explaining and went all out with his four beasts and seven totems. His totems really did give him quite an edge, allowing him to fight even more powerfully here than he could in Orderia.

"A totem beastmaster? Which continent and sect are you from? Why haven't I heard of you before? There’s too many people called Lin Feng, but none that I know of match your description." Chu Chuan squinted and intently looked at him.

"Don't talk so much. Just fight." Tianming didn't bother talking to someone who was billions of miles away. Who knew which corner of the vast universe this guy was from? They might not even meet another time in their lives anyway.

"Arrogant, aren't we?" Chu Chuan scoffed with dissatisfaction. As one of the top three geniuses of the Spectralia Sect, he had his own pride. That instant, he began morphing into a grey, simian beast that wielded a pair of war blades. Eight grey eyes filled his face, all of them coldly trained on Tianming.

"A six-eyed specter?" Tianming mused.

"I'm an eight-eyed royal, dimwit!"

Tianming didn't know how specter bloodlines were categorized, so he didn't know what having eight eyes meant. All he knew was that Ghoul King Di Zang had six eyes.

The battle began. Tianming found that Chu Chuan was somewhat stronger than Yun Feiyang and his physical endurance was impressive indeed, not to mention his explosive power. Even his battle arts, abilities, and constellation were top class. Too bad he was facing Tianming and had quite a hard time fighting off twelve units of fighters—seven totems, four beasts, and one beastmaster—coming from all directions and ended up defeated.

"You—" Before he could finish, Chu Chuan was eliminated. Though, he survived since it was only a virtual battle.

"Congratulations. From now on, you have level-three privileges and can cultivate on the third level of the pagoda! Additionally, you’ll take Chu Chuan's place on the publicly available Violetglory ranking," said the wondersky fairy.

"I made it on the ranking?" Tianming didn't know how to react. He wasn't on the imperial star ranking yet, but had suddenly found himself on another one.

"The wondersky realm makes it so that the disciples on Violetglory Star can cultivate and compete far more conveniently. They'll be able to challenge each other in a safe environment and gain much experience from that. Orderia’s really lacking in this department."

……

Tianming went up to the pagoda's third level. The caeli here used to belong to constelliers and beyond. With his Trisoul Prime, Tianming was able to make rapid progress. However, he didn't last for more than two days there before being eliminated by a fourth-level constellier around the age of ninety. He had no way to compete. Right after that, he went to Perplexity Island.

"I can finally challenge ancient idols as often as I want! Let's see how far I can go."

There were a hundred levels of ancient idols, and so far, he had only challenged the sixth. He had already transcribed the battle arts he obtained from his previous challenges back on the Flameyellow Continent.

Lingfeng had gone to Violetglory Pagoda to cultivate when Tianming returned. Though he wanted to keep a low profile, he noticed that a lot of people were looking above his head. When he looked up, he saw a purple glow above him with a number that denoted his place on the ranking.

"It stands out too much. Can I turn it off?" Tianming asked.

"That isn't possible," said the wondersky fairy.

"Thankfully it isn't green…" [1]

"It can be green at your request. So green, you won't miss it."

"Don't!"

Now he had been labeled as a rare talent that stood out among many others.

"Big Brother, fancy a virtual relationship with me? It'll just be our caelis and won't affect our real-life relationships, you know… I'll show you a great time," someone said as they patted his back. Tianming turned back and was shocked to see a cute girl that looked to be in her teens, looking at him with large, hopeful eyes.

"Hahaha, forget it… I don't like women!" he said, noticing far too many girls looking at him.

"Don't worry. I'm actually male, Big Brother."

Tianming never would have guessed that. The person was so young that his Adam's apple wasn’t easily seen when he spoke.
