4431 He had underestimated her.
The arena was deathly silent. Zhou Anbang shot to his feet with a clench of his fists, his face unsightly.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect such a turn of events. He had thought that with the eight-clawed purple owl, situ kuangjian would win this competition without a doubt. He would also be able to honor the trust of others and smoothly help the situ family rise to the position of a second rank family. Who would’ve thought that these spirit beasts would appear and smash the eight-clawed purple owl and situ kuangjian to the ground in a few moves.
Old master Zhou looked at situ kuangjian, who was lying face up on the ground. His hands and feet were still twitching, and old master Zhou’s heart was also twitching. These spirit beasts looked ordinary, but he knew that they were not that simple. If they were really ordinary spirit beasts, how could they have such strong combat power?
However, where did these spirit beasts come from? Even though Zhuo fangyu had formed a few incantations, Zhou Anbang did not believe that this was his spirit pet. If there really was such a fierce spirit beast, he would have summoned it long ago. Why would he wait until now?
Zhou Anbang squinted his eyes and looked at Ling Chuxi carefully. If he did not guess wrong, it should be her doing. Sigh, he had still underestimated her.
“Clan leader Zhou, can you announce the results now?” Ling Chuxi also glanced at Zhou Anbang and sneered in her heart.
Don’t think that you’re amazing just because you have a spirit beast. I have plenty of spirit beasts.
“I hereby announce that for this competition, the ethereal sect residence …” Zhou Anbang’s expression was a little bitter. So what if he had guessed that Ling Chuxi was the one behind this? as the head of a first-rank family, he could not simply spout nonsense without any real evidence.
Zhou Anbang’s scalp went numb as he watched the adorable cat and the spirit beast that looked like a small meatball smash the brick at the eight-clawed violet Toad’s head from time to time, while the fat little pheasant built a nest on situ kuangjian’s head and occasionally took out a brick to hit his forehead. If he did not end this competition soon, he was afraid that the young master of the situ family and his spirit beast would be in danger.
“Wait!” Zhou Anbang was about to announce the ethereal sect residence’s victory when a middle-aged man in Black stood up from the crowd.
“Caretaker Ren.” Zhou Anbang’s face lit up when he saw the man.
This person’s name was Ren Hong ping, and he was a steward of the aristocratic family’s adjudicators. He was the leader of the adjudicators who had come to help maintain order in the assessment competition. It was only because the aristocratic clan ruling council had always been unwilling to interfere too much in the affairs of ordinary aristocratic clans and sect residences that he did not appear on the grandstand.
This time, Zhou Anbang had been entrusted with the task of helping the situ family ascend to the position of a second rank family. Ren Hongping had also participated in this. Otherwise, even with the decree of the aristocratic family adjudication Council, Zhou Anbang would not have dared to so brazenly favor the situ family. The rules of this competition had been tailor-made for situ kuangjian.
Ren Hongping leaped up onto the competition stage and swept his gaze across the entire arena with feigned dignity. Finally, his gaze stopped on Ling Chuxi’s face.
“Ling Chuxi, How dare you!” Ren Hongping’s expression turned cold as he pointed at Ling Chuxi and angrily rebuked.
“What are you saying? And who are you?” Ling Chuxi looked at Ren Hongping with contempt. She had seen a lot of people who looked fierce but were weak inside. This guy was only at the middle stage of the sovereign level, and he dared to jump up and down. Who was he trying to scare? didn’t he know that he would be struck by lightning if he acted cool? One had to know that there were too many people who had been struck by lightning for acting cool in front of her.
