Chapter 853: Chapter 669: No, It’s the Ten-tailed!
The two Beastmen saw this scene, their faces turning ashen instantly, eyes full of disbelief.
Ji Qing was even more stunned, his face alternating between green and white, staring intently at Shen Li, completely unable to believe what he was seeing.
How is this possible?
Behind Shen Li, the phantom of nine tails emerged!
This power was supposedly exclusive to the Nine-tailed Divine Fox, yet he was just an ordinary Red Fox. How could he possess nine tails?!
Ji Qing’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, his face burning with pain. He could never have imagined this lowly, mixed-blood mongrel fox, whom he viewed with disdain, actually possessed the bloodline of the nine tails!
The discussions in the audience heated up to a boiling point, everyone was extremely excited, and the noise was about to lift the stadium off its foundation.
"Who would have thought Shen Li hid so deeply? Turns out he’s a Nine-tailed Fox too, no wonder he’s so powerful!"
"This time, Young Master Ji Qing has really hit a brick wall!"
"This match is truly spectacular!"
In the elders’ seat, several elders also displayed surprise, exchanging glances without understanding what was happening.
The Great Elder’s face darkened, taking a deep look at Shen Li in the light screen, his eyes flashing with scrutiny and contemplation.
The strength Shen Li displayed couldn’t be faked, he indeed possesses the Nine-tailed Divine Fox’s bloodline.
But why has the clan never heard of him? Could he be someone’s illegitimate child?
So far, it seems this is the only explanation.
An elder sighed, "No wonder he insisted on participating in the Divine Fox Tribe’s trial, turns out he really is related to the Nine-tailed Divine Fox."
"Should we report this matter to the Clan Leader?"
The Great Elder said sternly, "The Clan Leader is currently in seclusion attempting a breakthrough, you all know how important this matter is, he must not be disturbed for any reason."
These words silenced the other elders and high-ranking members, they dared not speak further.
The Clan Leader’s health has been deteriorating, he has been in seclusion for a long time, trying to achieve a breakthrough to Ten-tailed.
Understand this, the biggest difference between the Divine Fox Clan and other Fox Clans is that they are born with the noble nine tails.
And the Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox is the supreme of the supreme, it is said that the Divine Fox Clan’s ancestor was a Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox, possessing an unimaginable talent and power.
In the Divine Fox Clan’s tens of thousands of years of history, there have been only a handful of Ten-tailed Heavenly Foxes.
The Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox is undeniably the King of all Foxes, it is said that once the Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox appears, it will undoubtedly be the undisputed ruler of that era.
Moreover, legend has it that breaking through from nine tails to ten tails not only shatters the shackles of power, but can even lead to rebirth, returning to the peak.
The old Clan Leader is already seventy years old, but with his constitution, living another twenty years shouldn’t be an issue.
However, he sustained an old injury in his early years, leaving behind a lingering ailment, only by breaking through to a Ten-tailed Heavenly Fox can he continue to live on.
Therefore, this seclusion is a matter of life and death for the Clan Leader.
This time the seclusion is a life-or-death one, unless it’s a matter of clan extinction, he won’t easily come out.
Indeed, even the elders didn’t expect Shen Li to actually have the Nine-tailed Divine Fox lineage, this matter shocked them, but it’s just one more Nine-tailed Fox after all.
While it may sound big, it’s not so major as to alert the old Clan Leader.
Furthermore...
The Great Elder looked at the ongoing competition on the screen, frowning slightly.
After all, Ji Qing is his nephew, though his actions are disgraceful, he ultimately still needs to be protected.
With a hint of indifference and cynicism in his expression, he arrogantly said, "This Shen Li may indeed have Divine Fox Clan blood, but he might not be a pure-blooded Nine-tailed Fox."
Not only the other elders and high-ranking members quickly realized this, but many people in the audience also came to their senses.
"Previously, no one suspected Shen Li belonged to the Divine Fox Clan because the Beastmen of the Nine-tailed Divine Fox Clan typically have snow-white fur, yet he is entirely crimson, looking just like a Red Fox... I’ve never seen a Divine Fox Clan Beastman with such fur color."
"Moreover, although he just showed nine tails, they were only phantoms, quickly retracted, and did not form a solid entity!"
"In other words, although he can use part of the Nine-tailed Divine Fox’s power, he does not possess genuine nine tails..."
"He should be a hybrid of a Nine-tailed Fox and a Red Fox!"
"Saying it this way makes sense, this Shen Li is probably some illegitimate child of a Nine-tailed Fox Clan member and a foreign clan, that’s why he was thrown into the Wasteland Zone at birth, otherwise how could the Divine Fox Clan not know of him?"
At this moment, Ji Qing and others on the battlefield, after a brief shock, forcibly suppressed the waves of panic in their hearts, quickly regained composure.
Ji Qing’s face was gloomy, still trying to reassure himself, "You’re not a true Nine-tailed Divine Fox, stop pretending! You really think this Young Master is afraid of you?"
