The First Store System

Chapter 1044: Third Stage!

Batty became the winner of the last battle, shocking the crowd.

The next moment, Carl and Batte appeared in the seating area with a golden and dark-golden light shrouding them, respectively.

Many in the crowd were disappointed with the result since the betting amount on Carl had surpassed that on Batty by a large margin.

Even though the odds were so close, the crowd still believed in the quality of the beasts. The Tyranny Beagle was only an ordinary-quality beast, while the Silver Pigeon was an ultimate-quality beast. The battle between Carl and Batty showed the difference between the beast owners.

Batty used the Tyranny Beagle perfectly, surpassing the Silver Pigeon. He wouldn't win in a battle with Carl as the level difference between the two was extremely wide, but here he won.

"It's finally the time for the best round," Lily mumbled as she had been waiting for the Divine Lord beasts to battle it out.

The projection above the arena changed as the number of participants for the third stage appeared on it. At this point, there were 42 people taking part, so the system gave each of them a random number from 1 to 42.

***

Ding!

The bell rang, announcing the start of the battle for participants numbers 28 and 35.

The participant summoned their beasts, and soon, creatures unknown to the majority of the crowd appeared on the screen.

As usual, the details of the beasts appeared on the screen for the people in the crowd to see.

Price: One hundred supreme Sacred stones.]

The Golden Marten had a sleek, slender body covered in glowing golden fur, with a pointed face and sharp claws. Its eyes were bright green, and its long tail was bushy. It was a cute beast, and its cuteness was there for everyone to see.

The Golden Marten's owner was Gobbar, while his opponent was Ladriel, Ayriel's trusted subordinate.

Even Ayriel looked at the Golden Marten with eager eyes, as she couldn't wait to hug the creature. The Elves were proud, but they also liked beautiful things, and the Golden Marten was one.

Ladriel's beast was Night Harpy. When she bought the beast from the store, it was only a late Divine Being, so the card details showed that on the screen.

But since Ladriel first promoted the beast to Divine Lord, she couldn't participate in the Divine Being stage.

Even though Ladriel didn't want to injure the Golden Marten because its fur was extremely beautiful, she still ordered the Night Harpy to go ahead and win the battle.

The Night Harpy was annoyed with the Golden Marten since it clearly didn't like the attention Ladriel gave it.

The Night Harpy activated Shadow Stealth and disappeared in the eyes of the marten.

Squeal!

The Golden Marten squealed and activated Metal Armor. It only looked appealing in appearance, and it was extremely ferocious. It was as if the Multiverse wanted to hide its ferocity, so it got such a beautiful, cute appearance.

Clang!

The next moment, the sound of metallic clash rang in the areas the Talon Strike clashed with the armor.

Time flew by and the battle between the two continued. The Night Harpy was a bird, and creatures like the Golden Marten were usually prey of strong birds in the sky, so it tried to use that to its advantage.

It seemed that Gobbar had trained the marten well, so whenever the Night Harpy tried to pick it up, it would hide in the several pits he had created for itself.

Every time the Night Harpy would face disappointment, it gave up on that.

***

Screech!

A terrifying screech rang in the area, drumming in the marten's ears as the Night Harpy activated Sonic Screech while circling above it in the air.

The Night Harpy was slowly gaining the upper hand in the battle as its flight helped it a lot.

The Golden Marten had the Metal Storm, a powerful skill, but the Night Harpy was like a master in the sky as it effortlessly dodged the shards coming at it.

As time passed, the Golden Marten started to become exhausted, while the Night Harpy was still filled with energy.

The marten's characteristics provided no help to it in a battle, so finally, it crashed on the ground, with a Shadow Blast from the harpy.

The battle went on for more than seven minutes before the winner appeared.

Ladriel's heart felt a pang when it saw the beautiful fur disintegrating due to the blast. But as winning the battle was most important, she smiled when the harpy brought her victory.

Screech!

The Night Harpy screeched in the sky, showing off its victory. The next moment, it turned into a card and flew into Ladriel's hands.

Not long after, a white light covered Ladriel while a red light covered Gobbar. Gobbar's expression didn't look good since he wanted to win.

The next moment, he appeared on the platform. He bowed toward Aakesh, and soon after, he appeared in his seat after Aakesh waved his hands.

Gobbar thought of leaving the store, but since the upcoming battles could teach him so much, he decided to stay and looked at the screen established for his row.
