The festive ceremony of Domineering Three Faces was drawing to a close, and when Lu Ping’an breached through the "Thirteen Continuous Battles (forfeiters would also lose their Martial Destiny)," he naturally became the "Divine Chosen Champion."
Light shone upon his head; it was the laurel of the victor in Martial Fight, and at the same time, it was a new coordinate of abundant Martial Destiny.
"A strange taste."
Lu Ping’an’s "Magic Pets" had become his extensions and devoured a portion of the spoils.
The most evident evolution was Little Flame.
It was very pure, exceptionally pure, so pure that it had long completely transformed into an "Energy Form."
And this time, it did not acquire any "Profession," "Racial Talent," or any other external attachments; it simply took one more step, a tiny step...
The flames on its body became purer, the gold-tinged red Holy Flame purified further.
Its form also evolved amidst the distortion... perhaps to outsiders, it still just sparkled like a flame, but in Lu Ping’an’s perception, it had completed a leap in its life form.
In the end, as the halo dissipated, standing before Lu Ping’an was a pure white Sacred Beast.
Yes, it was a Sacred Beast rather than a Ferocious Beast.
It was a white Giant Beast that appeared immaculate from afar, but up close, one would discover it actually had no color but was an "Energy Form fluid."
"Qilin... no, the Four Unlike..."
The form resembling deer, horse, and qilin, along with the flowing cloud-like flames beneath its limbs, made Lu Ping’an think of the name of that Divine Beast.
And there were connoisseurs other than him...
"A Quasi-rule Energy Creature?!"
The exclamations of the Heavenly Master of Ceremonies proved that this was also an oddity for him, and the reality of this "Quasi-rule-level creature" made Lu Ping’an attempt to confirm it.
"...It really did advance."
What surprised Lu Ping’an the most was that Little Flame, originally the one with the lowest potential, had been the first to undergo a qualitative change.
But thinking back, there were indeed signs.
Touching this "Beast," Lu Ping’an could feel the wild emotions beneath the appearance of the "Sacred Beast"—it was still filled with aggression, simply lacking suitable prey.
Yes, this was his own Little Flame, the beast that would explode with just a touch.
Throughout its journey, it "inherited" the bloodlines of the Sun God and the Beast God, while completely transforming itself into the Sun Holy Fire and just happened to encounter Lu Ping’an’s evolution as a Fire Tamer. Of course, the most important factor was still...
"The influence of the Firebird..."
That glance might have impacted more than just Lu Ping’an; to be precise, since Lu Ping’an and his Magic Pets were essentially one and multi-faceted, anything that affected Lu Ping’an invisibly influenced all the Magic Pets.
And the sacred form before him, this static-seeming Holy Flame creature, was naturally the form of the "Firebird’s Seeker."
There was nothing wrong with this, as the path of professionals was also to pursue the road of predecessors, and as a "Beast," Little Flame had instinctively found its own "Profession," the "Path of Evolution" that was most suitable for itself.
Even if that path got cut off then and there, just being in a Quasi-rule level form now, it was still a very promising broad road.
"...I’m fourth-tier now."
And Zhi Xi seemed a little upset because Lu Ping’an was constantly staring at Little Flame.
"Really? Impressive," Lu Ping’an responded with a smile.
"Fourth Order Fighter, Fourth Order Runner, and Fourth Order Tamer."
This time, it was Lu Ping’an’s turn to be tense. Had she caught up with him all at once? It should be noted that Zhi Xi was originally a Decree-level creature, and her actual combat power should be the sum of her "Biological Level" and "Occupation Level."
With her full Advancement, her stats on paper might even surpass Lu Ping’an’s own body.
"Well done, we are stronger now."
And at this time, he knew how to speak well... the fact was indeed as such, Zhi Xi’s progress also meant progress for the "Heavy Knight," and Lu Ping’an’s own progress was quite evident.
The advancements of the two "big sisters" were quite apparent, while Ah Jiu and Mumu, who weren’t talkative, didn’t make a sound and their appearances didn’t seem to change much.
Lu Ping’an scrutinized the panel and was surprised... They were in their growth phase, and their progress was not less than that of Zhi Xi or Little Flame.
It may just be that fortunes couldn’t achieve this, but this was after all the "carp leaping over the dragon gate" ceremony, and as the beneficiaries of the benefits and spots Lu Ping’an gave up, their progress could be described as sky-rocketing.
But all this was still just a minor part of the festival.
"Let’s go, we’re going home."
Lu Ping’an feigned calm as he reached out his hand, while collecting the "trash" back into his treasure trove, and pulled the little girl, ready to leave.
Eve was also stunned... Hesitating for a moment, she did not refuse.
However, before leaving, there was one gift that was impossible to refuse.
"Thanks to Martial Fight Warrior Lu Ping’an for the thirteen consecutive battles, My Lord is very pleased..."
Martial Destiny is something that can be acquired and privately passed on, but it’s hard to clarify openly.
But there are things that everyone can see...
’...Divine Grace, It has decided to bestow the Divine Grace of its favor...’
A light from heaven descended, and this time, it was pure white.
This time, there was no reason for the so-called trivial Divine Grace, as the pure radiance itself represented the highest quality "Energy."
[Congratulations Host, you have received Lower Gold Divine Grace, Domineering Three Faces’ combat premonition.]
[Congratulations Host, you have received Lower Gold Divine Grace, the unyielding oath of the Faceless Martial Monk.]
[Congratulations Host, you have received Silver Lower Divine Grace, Domineering Three Faces’ Martial Destiny Time... Detecting similar Divine Grace, beginning Fusion, estimated result, Upper Silver fate-class Divine Grace!]
Receiving two powerful Rule-level Divine Graces and one rare Blessing of Good Luck Divine Grace left Lu Ping’an somewhat dumbfounded.
Even he was shocked by the generosity of this Deity... These were Rule-level Divine Graces, signifying a permanent consumption of the Deity’s Origin Power.
This generosity far exceeded Lu Ping’an’s prior best expectations.
Before he had a chance to examine them, he stepped onto the ship, and a cheering crowd rushed towards him.
When the Martial Fight festival was over, the remaining time at sea would be filled with happy leisure time and noisy revelry.
And in every aspect, Lu Ping’an, once an obscure nobody, would become the main character of the celebrations.
Initially, Lu Ping’an was very tired and considered escaping... but thinking about the Divine Grace he had just obtained, well, he decided to give some face to Domineering Three Faces and Its Priests.
Of course, whether the girl behind him was eagerly eyeing the celebrating crowd and the banquet venue, that was hard to tell.
And he had only taken a few steps when he stopped... because another girl, at least one who appeared to be a real girl on the outside, the "Black-haired Girl," was watching him.
