Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1469: 415: Phoenix of Light

The third team internal competition was finally here!

According to their agreement, a duel was to be held at every stage of growth. Now, it appeared that every member was on the verge of advancing to the Emperor level!

There was no time to lose; the internal match had to be conducted before they stepped into the secret realm of the Self Transformation Valley!

Qiuqiu cast a glance toward its four younger companions.

Could it successfully protect its status as the boss?

Recalling the Time Scripture Fragment it had recently obtained, Qiuqiu resolved to engage in some last-minute Cultivation.

“We have arrived at the Self Transformation Valley.”

Miao Yunge’s soft voice broke the silence shortly after.

The magnificent Sect had already manifested before Lin Su’s eyes.

These massive peaks pierced the heavens, each one comparable in scale to the Heavenly Pillar Peak of the Immortal Phoenix Sect.

The Self Transformation Valley itself was nestled within these surrounding mountain ranges.

Indeed, these peaks were considered part of the Self Transformation Valley’s territory.

While it lacked the mystical aura of the other two sects, this place felt more harmoniously connected to nature.

This was clearly a direct reflection of the unique legacy passed down within the Self Transformation Valley.

Following a resonant cry from the Eight-colored Immortal Crane, several answering calls vibrated through the mountain peaks.

One after another, various immortals appeared. Numerous disciples and high-ranking Sect members transformed into streaks of light, flying out in a disciplined formation to line the path, as if providing a formal welcome for Lin Su.

“This is…” Lin Su was briefly stunned by such an elaborate reception.

“Friend Lin Su, since you have journeyed all the way from the Eastern Extreme Domain as a representative of the Immortal Phoenix Sect, we at the Self Transformation Valley must naturally treat you with the proper respect,” Miao Yunge remarked with a calm expression, though a faint smile played in her eyes. “Please, after you!”

…

“Phew~”

Upon entering the private chamber meticulously prepared for him by the Self Transformation Valley, Lin Su couldn't help but grin. “The seniors of the Self Transformation Valley are truly incredibly hospitable.”

The five little ones trailing behind him nodded their heads, sharing Lin Su’s sentiment.

The Beast Tamers of the Self Transformation Valley had been exceptionally warm toward Lin Su, and the immortals had shown the same kindness to the pets.

Youyou was undoubtedly the most delighted among them.

The Self Transformation Valley was home to many immortals, the most formidable of which was once the companion of an Emperor-level Beast Tamer.

That was the light-element eighth realm immortal, Chongming Tianyu—the Feather Venerate!

Feather Venerate and Youyou had bonded instantly. Through their conversation, Feather Venerate discovered that Youyou was practicing a specific secret technique but lacked perfection in the light and combat elements. It had proactively offered to let Youyou cultivate within the Chongming Light Realm it had created to attempt a breakthrough in the coming days.

If all went according to plan, Youyou might successfully visualize the fourteenth phoenix even without entering the Lingxia Secret Realm.

“Mee! (｡òωó｡)” (The third team internal match!)

Qiuqiu had not forgotten the competition and was quick to remind the group.

The room fell silent in an instant.

A moment later, a look of realization dawned on Lin Su’s face. “If you hadn’t brought it up, I would have nearly forgotten!”

He shifted his attention to the other four little ones. “What are your thoughts?”

“Ta! ʕ◉ᴥ◉ʔ” (I’ll cheer you on!)

Tata was the first to declare its position.

Even though it now possessed offensive techniques and had significantly reduced its required chant time, that speed was only relative.

Its chanting duration was still long enough for its partners to take it down.

Consequently, this type of internal match felt a bit out of reach for it at this stage.

However…

A spark of competitiveness still flickered in Tata’s heart.

For the Emperor-level internal match, it would definitely find a way to compete!

“Hmm~ (⑅ŏᴗŏ⑅)” (Perhaps in a few more days~)

Youyou’s expression showed a hint of uncertainty.

If the training went well under Feather Venerate’s tutelage, it would be able to visualize the light-element phoenix very soon.

In that scenario, only the combat element would remain.

Youyou sensed that once the light element was perfected, the combat element might naturally follow.

This would lead to a massive surge in strength, making its chances in the internal match much more promising.

“Ji! (｡ϟ｡)” (I am ready at any time!)

The runes etched onto Guigui’s mask began to glow, radiating a fierce desire for battle.

It had only recently acquired the Heaven Mending Scripture and had not yet converted it into its own power.

But such a transformation was not something that could be achieved in a single day.

Given that Lin Su was nearing a breakthrough to level eight and the entire team was approaching the Emperor level, Guigui didn't expect to master it before the match.

Having received instruction from the Qianling Sect’s Lin Venerate and mastering the Ninefold Hell, its power had grown significantly compared to when they first arrived in the Northern Divine Domain.

The clash with the big brother could happen whenever!

“Yo?╚(⊙o⊙)╝” (Can I fight alongside Guigui?)

Yingying blinked its eyes, asking with curiosity.

“Mee!!! (≖ω≖)” (Absolutely not!!!)

Qiuqiu barked out a response before Lin Su could even open his mouth.

Utilizing the Ghost Shadow Fusion Form would be far too unbalanced, wouldn't it?

“The fusion form won't be counted toward the internal match rankings,” Lin Su said, shaking his head with a wry smile. “However, once the match is over, whoever is the strongest can have a spar with Guigui and Yingying in their fused state.”

Qiuqiu nodded, satisfied with that arrangement.

A spar that didn't affect the official rankings was perfectly fine.

Naturally… it already viewed itself as the reigning champion of the team.

“Regarding the timing of the internal match…” Lin Su’s eyes scanned the five little ones. After weighing their individual situations, he made a swift call. “During the welcome ceremony, Senior Miao mentioned that the Lingxia Secret Realm opens in one week.”

“We will hold our internal match the day before we enter the Lingxia Secret Realm! That way, everyone has extra time to prepare.”

“Once we step into the Lingxia Secret Realm, if everything goes as planned, everyone should be able to break through to the Emperor level.”
