Chapter 367: Mountain Stone Spirit, Mount Tai! The Unstoppable Su Ping!
【Student Cheng Cheng, ID 1435, is eliminated, earning 20 points!】
The prompt on the wristband caused no ripples in Su Ping's gaze.
Although it came a little late, it was still within Su Ping's expectations.
These guys were indeed cowards.
To think that he had originally assumed that these people outside would directly unite and launch an all-out attack on Qian Yi after he had sealed off Dream Island.
Su Ping had allowed Qian Yi to directly enter the second transformation state.
As a result, after waiting for so long, only a small minion had arrived?
Of course, Su Ping had heard a little about this person, Cheng Cheng.
Naturally, he couldn't be just a so-called minion.
He was a top seed from the Capital Advanced Beast Taming Academy, and even among the advanced academies in the Capital Province, he was a formidable figure.
The rules of the Provincial Examination were relatively flexible. In addition to members of various advanced academies being able to participate in the selection within the advanced academies, they could also return to their registered residence to take part.
Some students who couldn't make the top ten in their respective academies to enter the final examination would return to their registered residence for the assessment.
Of course, those who stood out in various places wouldn't be weak.
This Cheng Cheng dared to challenge him, and it seemed like a good opportunity.
Unfortunately, after glancing at his wristband, Su Ping didn't have the leisure to continue paying attention and instead turned his gaze to the not-so-distant area.
Within the faint misty surroundings, a colossal figure appeared in the distance.
The valley on Dream Island was indeed not small.
The misty veil hindered visibility, and Su Ping's movement speed wasn't very fast. Although he had the Five Elements Paper Body and the perception of the remaining Beastmasters, his senses were still much stronger.
He had been inside for about two hours, mostly encountering scattered Overlord-rank ferocious beasts. Now it seemed he was finally about to encounter a formidable opponent.
Within the mist, a massive figure appeared, like a small mountain.
No, perhaps it was more accurate to say that this figure itself was a small mountain! With a height of over twenty to thirty meters, it was originally seated in the distance, but as Su Ping approached, this 'small mountain' gently turned its body, causing slight tremors and vibrations.
A Sovereign-rank ferocious beast, the advanced evolution of the Earth Element Spirit, the Mountain Stone Spirit.
Possessing an enormous body and the most direct destructive power, it was like a temple dedicated to an unparalleled Earth Element Spirit!
Su Ping's eyebrows slightly lifted, for even among Sovereign-rank ferocious beasts, this creature was considered to have formidable combat strength. Its only drawback was perhaps its lack of agility, and it might even be relatively rare.
Before, it was mentioned that among the numerous Element Spirits, the Gold Element Spirit and the Earth Element Spirit were relatively rare, except for the so-called mutated Gold Element Spirit, the Mechanical Core.
The Water Element Spirit, Fire Element, and even the Wind and Thunder Element Spirits were more common.
This was because the latter natural elements were ubiquitous, but the birth of Gold and Earth Elements was relatively difficult.
In this Provincial Examination Mystic Battlefield, such a formidable creature had emerged?
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, revealing a keen interest.
However, despite his interest, he knew he had to eliminate it, as it was worth 200 points!
"Xiao Qing!"
"Woof!"
Xiao Qing's verdant burning body slowly locked onto the distant giant, but she showed no intention of rushing out. Instead, she stood calmly in her original position.
However, within the mist in the distance, numerous shadows were rapidly approaching the Mountain Stone Spirit.
Undoubtedly, the Mountain Stone Spirit had already discovered Su Ping's arrival and was responding accordingly!
"Despicable humans, imprisoning me in this place and making me fight to the death with you!"
On the stone body, the face on the head spoke, causing Su Ping to slightly startle.
Sovereign-rank ferocious beasts were indeed advanced, possessing corresponding intelligence, but those that could master human language were relatively rare.
Indeed, at this moment, the Mountain Stone Spirit spoke using spiritual power, uttering words in the Dragon Nation language!
However, the creature's next words made him pause.
"Humans, Mount Tai and I can cooperate. How about it?"
Cooperation? Su Ping was surprised that in the Provincial Examination Mystic Battlefield, a ferocious beast was making such a suggestion.
Su Ping arrived with great interest: "What collaboration?"
"You release me from this ghostly place, and I'll give you this!" said the giant stone spirit named 'Mount Tai' in a deep and resonating voice.
Then, amidst the mist, it extended its hand, holding a peculiar heart-shaped stone.
"This is... a Monarch-level resource, the Heart Stone?" Su Ping nodded.
The Heart Stone, a Monarch-level Earth-type resource, when used by pets, especially Earth-type pets, can significantly enhance the internal strength of the pet.
It can also increase the pet's lifespan and unlock some potential talents, making it an extremely rare Monarch-level resource.
The giant stone spirit nodded:
"Yes, as long as you find a way to take Mount Tai out of here, this Mount Tai can be yours."
The giant stone spirit continued its deep and resonating voice.
Su Ping, on the other hand, took a look at the giant stone spirit and couldn't help but agree that it was indeed quite remarkable.
Earth-type elemental pets are already rare, let alone one that has completed its evolution.
The Heart of All Spirits, despite its name, still had many vacancies. The creature before him seemed genuinely capable, and its personality seemed amiable.
At this thought, Su Ping revealed a smile: "The Heart Stone doesn't matter, but if you want me to take you out, you'll have to listen to my instructions and stay in my Heart of All Spirits. How about it?"
The giant stone spirit was a bit confused, clearly not fully understanding Su Ping's words: "What is the Heart of All Spirits?"
"It's my home, a place where many pets are nurtured and raised," Su Ping explained.
The giant stone spirit's eyes widened in realization, perhaps understanding a bit too much: "Human, you... want to enslave Mount Tai! What's the difference between that and being here?!
Damnable human! Mount Tai just wants to sleep, what has it done wrong?"
A roar of anger left Su Ping speechless.
This creature was a bit stunned, wasn't it? No, that's not right. A ferocious beast with this level of intelligence and understanding of the Dragon Nation's language and culture is quite remarkable.
Su Ping exhaled and took a few steps back.
Looking at Xiao Qing standing protectively in front of him, the giant stone spirit scoffed: "Pathetic human, do you think such an insignificant low-level elemental pet can threaten Mount Tai?"
A minute later.
The giant stone spirit slammed its hand down, causing the ground to tremble, but the clone it smashed was instantly entangled by a large amount of vines, binding it tightly.
The giant stone spirit, now serious, spoke: "You're right, human. Your pet's strength is impressive, but Mount Tai will never submit!"
Five minutes later.
Xiao Qing stood calmly on the stone, still by Su Ping's side, as if her feet hadn't moved an inch.
However, the giant stone spirit was now trapped within a fortress of wood thorns, sharper and harder than steel. The thorns had penetrated its massive body, which had once been as hard as granite but was now covered in a layer of purple, resembling a magnificent amethyst, transparent and radiant.
The giant stone spirit felt pain and a sense of threat: "Powerful beast tamer, Mount Tai acknowledges your strength. You have a formidable pet, but Mount Tai will never surrender!"
Ten minutes later.
The sharp wood thorns had pierced the giant stone spirit's entire body. Its once granite-like exterior was now covered in purple, and its massive body was shaking.
Standing before Su Ping and the wolf spirit, which seemed to burn with an eternal flame, both appeared to have doubled, creating an eerie shadow-like effect.
At this moment, the giant stone spirit named Mount Tai seemed to see its mother mountain in a daze: "Respected beast tamer, your strength has earned Mount Tai's recognition. Mount Tai is willing to submit to you and join the Heart of All Spirits..."
To not respond to its mother mountain's call, this unusually intelligent giant stone spirit quickly conceded.
As soon as it spoke, the entangling poisonous thorns disappeared, and the ever-present threat seemed to vanish. Su Ping, stroking his chin, couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration: "If it were before, you agreeing to our harmonious coexistence would be the natural choice. But now, with Xiao Qing having beaten you to this state, you're only submitting due to the circumstances, and you might hold a grudge.
I'm not worried, but in the Heart of All Spirits, there are still many less powerful little guys. Let's just forget it. Although evolved Earth elementals are rare, for the sake of maintaining harmony in the Heart of All Spirits, it's better to end it. After all, there are 200 points of credit at stake!"
The giant stone spirit's soul trembled: "Respected beast tamer! Mount Tai, after witnessing your strength and that of your pet, sincerely wants to submit. In our world, strength is revered!
Mount Tai can help you find more opponents here, ensuring a smoother path to earning credits!"
At this moment, Su Ping was completely convinced.
This Mountain Stone Spirit is indeed a little different!
And, it seems to possess some secrets.
Although it's natural for living beings to seek benefits and avoid harm, it's rare for a beast to understand the concept of "seizing the right opportunity" at a time like this.
It's extremely rare for a beast without a Soul Contract with a Beastmaster to possess such wisdom at the Sovereign Rank.
Where did Elder Qin capture this creature?
Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, as if deep in thought.
However, a glint in his eyes revealed the activation of his True Sight, focusing on the creature before him:
【Mountain Stone Spirit - Wild, Age: 7 years】
【Attribute: Earth】
【Current Level: Sovereign Rank 1】
【Race Potential: Sovereign Rank 7】
【Skills: Hardened Skin (Perfect), Mountain Shaking Power (Proficient), Earthquake (Expert), Stone Body (Perfect), Sandstorm (Perfect), Earth Ripple (Beginner), Petrification Ray (Beginner).】
A total of seven skills!
While this is a normal standard, Su Ping pursed his lips.
Three skills have reached perfection.
It's a wild beast, yet it's only seven years old?
How did this guy manage that? But now isn't the time to ask such questions. Su Ping knew that he had to take advantage of this opportunity in the Provincial Examination Mystic Battlefield.
Of course, this required strength! Even with so many skills, it was clear that this Mountain Stone Spirit had little combat experience.
Xiao Qing's ability was indeed a bit overpowered.
The terrifying toxicity of the Green Demon Body, if not for Su Ping constantly restraining Xiao Qing from killing in the Soul Contract, Xiao Qing's Demon Spring combined with the Green Demon Body's poison would have directly detonated and killed this Mountain Stone Spirit.
Although Su Ping could see that this creature had some secrets, now wasn't the time to ask questions.
The Provincial Examination was the top priority at the moment.
With this in mind, Su Ping nodded:
"Considering your sincerity, I'll trust you for now! Xiao Qing, detoxify it!"
The green vines instantly wrapped around the Mountain Stone Spirit, causing the creature, named Mountain Tai, to shudder. But upon sensing the vines' coverage, the force that had weakened it was slowly extracted.
As the green vines transformed into purple vines resembling venomous snakes, the Mountain Stone Spirit finally breathed a sigh of relief:
"Honorable Beastmaster, you are so strong and kind."
Su Ping looked at the creature with interest, then jumped directly in front of it and sat on its shoulder:
"Alright, let's continue!"
Feeling Su Ping sitting on his shoulder, the Mountain Stone Spirit seemed to swallow, but in the end, he nodded and took large steps forward.
Seeing that the Mountain Stone Spirit had no ill intentions, Su Ping nodded in satisfaction.
In fact, even if the creature rebelled, he wasn't afraid. His Elemental Transformation Talent and Time Potion were always ready, and even if he was caught on live stream, Su Ping could explain it with the Illusion Heart Potion.
However, if the creature wasn't genuinely submissive, Su Ping would never allow a Sovereign Rank beast with malicious intentions to enter the Heart of All Spirits.
But for now, the result seemed good. This Mountain Stone Spirit's intelligence was indeed high, and it was quite sensible.
Perhaps, as it had said, it just wanted to find a place to sleep well?
Su Ping didn't think further, and sitting on this newly tamed giant mount, he began a more efficient sweep through the center of Dream Island.
However, Su Ping was also unaware of the impact his actions had on the outside viewers.
During the Provincial Examination, he had even tamed a Sovereign Rank beast as an accomplice. At that moment, Cheng Cheng, who had already been eliminated, was being treated by the medical team for his three severely injured beasts, while watching Su Ping's live stream.
After witnessing the entire scene,
Cheng Cheng wanted to report to Vice President Xu, the head judge of the judging panel:
He wanted to report that Su Ping was cheating!
