Since there’s an opponent, let’s start. Let’s start with the God-tier battle?
said the Leader of the Stormy Country eagerly.

No, hurry. Let’s start with the Emperor tier,
Gao Peng said.
If we start with the God tier, then there isn’t much of a fight left, is there?


Okay,
Yu Chao Sheng said quickly while he stared at Gao Peng. Ever since Gao Peng had appeared, Chao Sheng had been staring at him like he recognized him.
Gao Peng noticed Yu Chao Sheng’s gaze and gave Yu Chao Sheng a polite smile.
A creaking sound filled the air.


Yu Chao Sheng’s teeth ground together.
He was ashamed of the time that he had escaped from Fatty Big Sea.
Now that his enemies had finally appeared in front of him, he found that he… couldn’t win.
Yu Chao Sheng held a strong grudge.
How had he become so powerful?

Okay, let’s start with the Emperor tier.
Yu Zhenming’s eyes shone, his face revealing a strange emotion.

I will just enjoy the fruits of victory slightly later,
he thought.

Wait a moment.
Gao Peng snapped his fingers.
From behind him, a large pile of snow-white fluff rose. The hair in the fluff blew outwards to reveal a pair of white-golden eyes.
This was…


Yu Zhenming frowned. What were these people trying to do?

This competition is of great significance, so there should be a live broadcast of the battle. Rest assured, it won’t affect the game,
Gao Peng said.

Are you treating us like monkeys?!
Rong Shengyi said, suppressing his anger.

You can’t say that. It’s not just a live broadcast of you,
Gao Peng said.
We’ll all appear in the video. Why would I treat myself like a monkey?

After hearing Gao Peng’s explanation, although the Yu Zhenming trio was still a little unhappy, they agreed reluctantly.
At the same time, the City of Hope and the Black Fog World appeared.
A huge vortex appeared from nothing and eventually stabilized.
Everyone in the city simply needed to look up to see the picture projected in the vortex in the sky.

What is that…?


It seems to be a very notable person of the human race.




I know that man! He’s a very famous Overlord-tier trainer!

Under the backdrop of a noisy crowd, the first game began.
…
From the three nations of the Ling Clan, a young trainer appeared. Two women and one man came out for the three nations. The three nations were also taking this battle as an opportunity to train their younger generation.

Who would like to go first?
Gao Peng looked at the three people to his side.
The three Emperor-tier trainers who were placed in front of everyone were at the bottom of the group…
Standing in the middle of the big names, the three Emperor-tier trainers felt immense pressure.
In their hometown, their Emperor-tier trainers could be regarded as powerful or top masters, but here, they were reduced to the bottom.
The battle between Emperor-tier monsters was actually more of a game.
Of course, 10,000 Emperor familiars were no match for a Quasi God, let alone a God.


However, compared to the strength of other Emperor-tiers, one could roughly determine a familiar’s prospects.
Gao Peng’s Emperor-tier monsters came from the three forces of the Southern Sky Group, Huaxia Tribe, and Green God Tribe.
In the first battle, the first beast summoned by the Emperor-tier trainer from Green God Tribe was a Jiuqu Yellow River Centipede.
It took thirty-seven minutes to defeat the Platinum King Sparrow brought by the Emperor-tier trainer from the Stormy Kingdom.
Although the Jiuqu Yellow River Centipede was a creature of the ground, its special ability was to summon sandstorms, and it could fly in them.
The Platinum King Sparrow who lost its vision was defeated in the end.
Having won one city, Earth Star’s morale was high. People in the City of Hope were even more excited.
This was also Gao Peng’s objective—to enhance the confidence of the human race.

Although we lost 10,000 years ago, it did not mean that we must be weaker than aliens,
he thought.
But the second Emperor-tier match saw the Huaxia Tribe eliminated by a trainer from the Withered Country, and the people had their enthusiasm doused.


The Emperor-tier trainers of the Huaxia Tribe were not weak. After all, to be able to defeat hundreds of Emperor trainers, they definitely couldn’t be weak.
However, this Emperor-tier trainer from the Withered Country was indeed talented, as two of his three familiars were Legendary-grade, and the other one was Epic. Their ranks were very high. After a tough battle, the Emperor trainer of the Huaxia Tribe was defeated.
The last battle included Li Junzong representing the Southern Sky Group.
The teenager who had secretly drilled a hole at the corner wall and ran to the training ground to train monsters had grown up and made a name for himself over the years.
Li Junzong was undoubtedly the most frequently profiled force from the Southern Sky Group.
Familiars above the Overlord tier weren’t easily revealed to others. The bronze Qin Qiong and Guan Gong statues that Li Junzong possessed were his signature familiars.
When the match ended, Li Junzong summoned the two Guan Gong and Qin Qiong bronze statues. The two 65-foot-high bronze statues stood on the battleground, their knotted muscles displaying a dull luster.
Squatting behind the Guan Gong and Qin Qiong statues, there was another odd-shaped royal beast. It looked a bit like an anteater, but its nose was slightly shorter than an anteater’s. With a longish face, the color of its fur was smooth and bright, black and white.
The most peculiar thing about it was its pupils. The faint pupils were like two black holes that absorbed all surrounding light.
Lingering black mist hung from the body of and over the Nightmare Eating Tapir, as if there was a nightmarish world hidden within the black mist.
This was the familiar that Gao Peng had evolved from an Elephant Trunk Tapir to a Gray Fog Tapir to a Nightmare Eating Tapir. Although the name didn’t sound very prestigious, its strength wasn’t weak. Two of its characteristics were extremely strange, and an unprepared enemy would find itself highly challenged.
The misty black fog shrouded the entire battlefield.
On the opposite side, the face of the Emperor-tier trainer from Mingyu Country changed suddenly. He realized that in this black fog, his beast couldn’t see beyond 30 feet.
Making whistling sounds, the howling wind blew, and two weapons dropped from the sky through the black mist.

I’m not ready yet!

The third Emperor-tier battle ended quickly, and the human won this first round.
In fact, the crowd merely saw two strange rays of light flashing in the Nightmare Eating Tapir’s pupils, then the familiar of the King-tier trainer of Mingyu Country fell into a sluggish state.
The Qin Qiong and Guan Gong Bronze statues approached in a straight line. Their three weapons slammed violently on its head, and the battle was over.
On the other side of the City of Hope, someone said,
We actually won.


It seems that there’s nothing to fear from the Mutated Tribe.


Yes, mutants of the same tier aren’t our opponents at all.

Of course, there were others with different opinions, but the diverse voices were drowned out by the unity of the humans.
Just as everyone was busy celebrating, the Overlord-tier battle gave everyone a wake-up call.
Two against one, they were losing, and during the only battle they’d won, they had to rely on the Six Soul-Locking Corpse familiar that was bestowed by Gao Peng to defeat the strong enemy.

Leave the battle to this old man.
Ji Hanwu broke the rigid atmosphere.

Okay.
Gao Peng nodded. He knew the strength of his grandfather. However, the evolved White Dragon had completely transformed, and its talent and combat power had improved.
