“I was tricked because I wasn’t paying attention. Next time, I’ll be prepared. I won’t be tricked. Moreover, I’m telling the truth. Up until now, none of them have contracted a Black Iron Summoned Beast.”
“That’s true. Many of them participate in the contract ceremony every year, but it’s been a long time since a Black Iron Summoned Beast appeared.”
“It definitely won’t appear this year. This kind of low-level alien race is definitely not as strong as us Purple Race.”
“Indeed, other than having good brains, their aptitude is worse than the Purple Race. Last year, our Bai clan contracted two Black Iron Summoned Beasts.”
The Bai clan and the Zha clan’s juniors discussed animatedly. They purposely spoke very loudly for everyone to hear.
These words made the Zhao clan’s faces turn ugly.
At the center of the square, a handsome youth could not help but reveal a cold light.
He was Zhao Buhui, an existence that the Zhao clan had placed high hopes on. He had always placed great importance on the clan.
When he heard these people mocking the Zhao clan, Zhao Buhui was extremely furious. Therefore, he shot a glance at a fatty not far away.
That fatty nodded and spoke loudly to the clansmen beside him.
“I heard that the Bai clan hasn’t produced a Black Iron Summoned Beast in decades. Last year, two of them appeared, but one of them didn’t belong to the Bai clan at all. Instead, it was the Bai clan’s neighbor...”
“In the end, the Bai clan forcefully pulled him over to fill in the numbers. Later on, he joined the city lord’s mansion. The Bai clan even shamelessly said that it was their own clan that awakened it. They’re really thick-skinned.”
“Yeah, the Zha clan isn’t that great either. In the past two years, there hasn’t been a single Black Iron Rank. There was only one that appeared two years ago.”
“That’s right, that’s right. I wonder what they’re so proud of.”
The Zhao clan’s disciples were also intentionally discussing loudly, purposely picking at people’s scars and raising their voices to ‘discuss’.
Such discussions made the Zha clan and Bai clan members gnash their teeth in anger. The Bai clan members even clamored.
“We had at least a Black Iron Rank last year, and none of you had a Black Iron Rank last year. You won’t have a Black Iron Rank this year either. Just wait and see.”
“That’s right, that’s right. 30 youths participated in the summoning ceremony, and now 28 of them are not Black Iron Rank. The remaining two are definitely not Black Iron Rank either.”
The juniors from the Bai and Zha clans shouted loudly, but they were not confident either. The main reason was that Zhao Buhui’s summoning beast had not appeared yet, so they were very worried.
At this moment...
The light from the contract formation flashed rapidly, and a tall figure appeared within the formation. The contract with Zhao Buhui was successful.
Zhao Buhui and the members of the Zhao clan looked at the Summoning Contract Array expectantly. When the light dissipated, everyone could finally see the figure within the formation clearly.
It was a huge mammoth with thick limbs and a thick and heavy body. Even though it had just appeared, it gave off intense pressure.
“A High-Level Ordinary Summoning Beast? It’s not a Black Iron Rank. What a pity.”
The members of the Zhao clan looked at the mammoth and sighed in unison. They felt very disappointed.
Although the mammoth was very strong and could withstand the attack of a Black Iron Summoned Beast, it was not a Black Iron Rank after all.
This also made Zhao Buhui and the members of the Zhao clan very disappointed.
“Hahaha, I knew it. There definitely won’t be a Black Iron Rank. I was right, right? Hahaha.” The Bai clan’s junior laughed loudly. His laughter was very arrogant.
“Even Zhao Buhui has failed. This year, the Zhao clan will not have a Black Iron Rank. Tsk, tsk, tsk, they are really a big family. Indeed, there is still a gap between the races.”
The Zha clan’s junior raised his head. His burly figure was deliberately straight as if he was showing off.
These words made the Zhao clan’s juniors extremely indignant. That fatty could not help but shout out.
“Didn’t you see that there’s still one person who doesn’t have a contract? It’s embarrassing to make such a conclusion so early.”
“Hahaha, there’s only Zhao Adai left. He’s so stupid. Do you think he can contract a Black Iron Summoning Beast?” the Bai clan member said disdainfully.
“How is that impossible? Just wait and see,” the Zhao clan member retorted with a red face, but his voice was very soft.
This was because the last remaining youth looked very ordinary, and his aptitude was also very poor. He was always a fool.
This also caused the Zhao clan members to be very pessimistic about Zhao Adai so everyone was very disappointed.
However, right at this moment...
Just as the Zhao clan members were disappointed...
The dazzling Summoning Contract Array suddenly lit up, and it rippled with an even brighter light.
Along with this light, a handsome white panther suddenly appeared in the array.
To everyone’s surprise, this panther’s eyes calmly scanned the surroundings. It was not like the other Summoned Beasts at all, and it did not seem to be anxious when it first descended.
This kind of performance caused everyone to be slightly stunned. When they felt the white panther’s Spiritual Energy fluctuations, they instantly exploded.
“Black... Black Iron Rank. It’s actually Black Iron Rank. Moreover, it’s an Invisible Panther that’s good at assassination.”
“Great, our Zhao clan finally has a Black Iron Rank. It’s too cool.”
“Hahaha, look at the white panther. It’s too calm. One look and you can tell that it’s especially good at assassination. As long as it grows up, it will become the guardian of our Zhao clan.”
The younger generation of the Zhao clan cheered happily. Even the elders of the Zhao clan revealed happy smiles. It was obvious that their mood was different.
Compared to the Zhao clan’s jubilant mood, the Bai clan and the Zha clan on the other side had ugly expressions on their faces as they looked at the white panther solemnly.
Facing a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast that was good at assassination, even a Black Iron Rank Summoner would be very afraid. If things went wrong, they might be assassinated.
Therefore, these two clans could not sit still any longer and were thinking about what to do.
However, at this moment...
Bai Nuo, the Black Iron Summoner who had awakened last year, walked out of the crowd with his Black Iron Rank Bloodthirsty Ape and stood in the center of the field.
“Zhao Adai, right? Do you dare to let your Summoned Beast fight with my Summoned Beast? Right here,” Bai Nuo said arrogantly.
“Eh?”
Zhao Adai was still stunned. He looked at his Summoned Beast in a daze.
He originally thought that he would be lucky if he could contract a Low-Level Ordinary Summoned Beast. He did not even dare to think about a Mid-Level Ordinary Summoned Beast.
He did not expect that he would contract a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast. He was so scared that he did not even react.
“What? Don’t you dare to accept my challenge? Are all the juniors of the Zhao clan so timid?” Bai Nuo said calmly, his expression still arrogant.
This statement made the members of the Zhao clan very dissatisfied, and they all gritted their teeth.
However, facing a Black Iron Summoned Beast, they really did not have a good way to deal with it.
Although there was a Black Iron Summoned Beast from the older generation, if they were to deal with this youth, it would affect their dignity. Moreover, the older generation of the Bai clan would definitely jump out.
Therefore, at this moment, a troublesome problem appeared. The younger generation did not know how to respond. They all looked at Zhao Adai, wanting to see what he would choose.
Being watched by so many people, Zhao Adai, immediately became nervous. He hurriedly turned his head to look at his Summoned Beast.
“My Summoned Beast, someone is challenging us. Go and defeat him.”
After Zhao Adai finished speaking, he looked at the white panther nervously, hoping that it would accept the challenge.
