Chapter 568: Who Is This Person?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The battle was about to start. Han Sen gave his beast souls to the Snow Charr to increase her power.
The list of beast souls he gave her included the sacred-blood, Blood-Scale armor Han Sen received in exchange for the sword from earlier, a Gargoyle glyph, a Golden Roarer to ride, a Golden Rock Worm King, Berserk pet armor, Nightmare Wings, a Snow-Lady transfiguration beast soul, and a Desert Bird. The Snow Charr would be able to take advantage of all those beast souls, and so Han Sen made sure to transfer them to her for her usage.
But the Snow Charr used a lance, and Han Sen did not have a sacred-blood lance. This ant she would have to rely on her default weapon. However, her opponent would be another royal spirit, and so her Ice-Blood Lance was sure to deal decent damage.
In the arena, the Demon was already there. It was a two-ter tall warrior, plated in black armor and wielding a greatsword. It was no ordinary-looking greatsword, and it could very well have been a sacred-blood one.
When the Demon entered the arena, it did so to the welcoming cheers of much applause. It was to be expected; after all, a battle of royal spirits was a suprely rare occurrence. The Demon was the only one owned by the arena, too.
"Brother Han, is your Snow Charr ready to enter the arena?" Zhang Xiang looked at Han Sen.
Han Sen nodded to confirm his preparations were complete, and then the Snow Charr walked out and into the arena.
When the Snow Charr ca out, the audience went crazy, screaming with excitent.
"It really is a female spirit. Whoa, she is so beautiful!"
"Ah, this royal spirit is far too pretty."
"Who is the owner of this spirit? He is a lucky man, indeed."
...
Son of Heaven watched the Snow Charr’s reveal with focused eyes. Initially, he wasn’t too concerned with the coming fight, and he hadn’t even asked who his Demon’s opponent would be. But the Snow Charr’s appearance startled him, and so he sat up, captivated.
In the beginning, before the arena, Son of Heaven wanted a beautiful spirit for himself, but there did not exist many in this world for him to claim. The likes of an actual lady spirit were even rarer. The appearance of his challenger was enthralling to see, and his eyes were wide in admiration.
The fight began. Holding its greatsword high, the Demon roared and dashed towards the Snow Charr.
The Snow Charr did not move, but her body shone with a red armor that was decorated in a variety of different glyphs. The icy cane she held in her hands beca the Ice-Blood Lance she would use for battle.
Then, a golden light hovered between her legs and from it, what appeared to be a golden beast ford and raised the Snow Charr upon its back. She had beco a lancer of elegant doom.
Dong!
The Snow Charr rode the Golden Roarer majestically, and their perfect synergy made them look like they were one. The speed at which she rode towards the Demon enabled Raging Impact. The Ice-Blood Lance thrust into the Demon and the Demon’s greatsword slashed the Snow Charr.
The Demon took a few steps back, but fortunately for it, the armor had not been pierced. The slash that the Snow Charr received was fair, but under the protection provided to her from Raging Impact, she was not hurt. After the dust settled on their opening moves, it was too early to gauge who seed likely to win.
Son of Heaven’s eyes glead with a certain fire. It was too soon for him to level up and gain access to the Second Shelter, so he had never seen a Golden Roarer before and was therefore unfamiliar with its talents and abilities.
Son of Heaven was shocked to see the equipnt that the Snow Charr was loaded with. He knew that whoever owned that royal spirit was no ordinary person.
"Soone call for Zhang Xiang!" Son of Heaven ordered for the people beside him to locate Zhang Xiang so he could inquire about who the Snow Charr’s owner was. He also wanted to know if there was any chance he could bargain for possession of her.
Zhang Xiang quickly appeared in front of Son of Heaven and politely said, "Boss, is there anything you require?"
"Who is the owner of that Snow Charr?" Son of Heaven asked.
Zhang Xiang hastily replied, "It is a young man of the na ’Han.’ He must have arrived here from another shelter. He is a reserved fellow, so I wasn’t able to learn much about him."
"Han?" Son of Heaven could not help but frown, as that surna brought up many unpleasant mories. It reminded him of a person he hated a lot.
But Son of Heaven shrugged it off, believing the na was a coincidence and that the Snow Charr would assuredly not belong to the Han Sen he used to know. That person was a late arrival to the Second Shelter, and he had only been there for less than a year. It would be impossible for him to acquire such spirits and beast souls in that amount of ti.
"Wait until the battle is over. Then bring him to ." Son of Heaven relayed this order to Zhang Xiang and did not say anything more.
Although the Snow Charr’s performance was amazing, and the beast souls she owned were pretty remarkable, Son of Heaven still believed she was no match for his Demon. He watched quietly.
The clashes of the two spirits had pumped the audience into a frenzy of sheer excitent. The colliding of lance against sword, the trading of blows between a beautiful woman and a warrior, and the accompanint of a terrifying mount rallied the crowd’s enthusiasm to the max.
"The royal spirits’ fight is much better! Now that I think about it, the fights between knight class spirits suck."
"Of course this is aweso. Just look at the beast souls they use; they are sacred-blood ones."
"I really want a royal spirit. If the Snow Charr was mine, that would be a dream co true!"
"Stop dreaming, then! It would be impossible for an ordinary person such as you or to take a shelter. Even if you did, the spirits would most likely ignore you. The chance to ta a royal spirit is 10,000 to 1. It would be easier for you to win the lottery."
...
"Demon, it is ti for you to reveal your true strength!" Son of Heaven observed that the mood of his audience was fever-high. A creepy smile raised his lips.
All of a sudden, the Demon leapt out of the battleground and scread as a light emanated from the partings in its plate armor. The body quickly morphed into that of a black ape built from tal.
"A sacred-blood Blacksteel Ape? I had no idea that the Demon had a sacred-blood transfiguration beast soul." Soone recognized the Demon’s transfiguration beast soul and scread aloud in mounting excitent.
But this was not the extent of its abilities. The Demon pointed its greatsword and summoned a yellow lion which had a horn on its head. After the lion appeared, it roared at the sky intimidatingly.
"A sacred-blood pet Golden-Horn Lion? That is not fair! How is the Snow Charr supposed to compete with that?"
"Two versus one? And it’s a sacred-blood pet! Victory for the Snow Charr is surely unobtainable now."
"He is too rich. He has too much money. It’s only a royal spirit, but it was stocked with so many beast souls."
"There is nothing we can do. There are not many spirits."
Everyone was in a heated debate over the most recent turn of events, and Son of Heaven was wallowing in the chatter of praise. He loved nothing more than to crush those who opposed him.
But before the Demon could start attacking, the Snow Charr made a move of her own. Her body started to shine, and a really beautiful Snow-Lady transfiguration beast soul appeared to combine with the Snow Charr. From it, the Snow Charr’s hair turned white, her eyes glead silver, and her body was consud with a biting frost.
"Ah! It is a humanoid transfiguration beast soul! It almost looks human now."
"Is the Snow Charr’s transfiguration a sacred-blood type?"
While everyone was reeling from shock, the Snow Charr raised her lance. A red-armored beast with four wings then spawned. It approached the Golden-Horn Lion.
The two beasts collided with each other. One could not overco the other, which resulted in a stalemate that rocked the audience to their cores. No one had expected the owner of the Snow Charr to be so rich, almost as rich as the Demon’s owner himself.
When Son of Heaven laid eyes on what was happening, he was just as rattled. It was normal to have armored beast souls raise a sacred-blood pet, but that wasn’t sothing ordinary elites could do. It must have had really strong power.
"Who is this person?" Son of Heaven furrowed his brow once more.
