My beasts evolved after killing just one monster; they all became gods.

Chapter 26: The Trade-Off! The Young Master is Convinced!

"???"

Jiang Feng's sudden outburst startled everyone.

After regaining her senses, Jiang Yuyao's pretty face immediately turned cold.

"Jiang Feng, are you crazy?"

Is my younger brother really an idiot? What time is it? Doesn't he think he's offended Su Lin enough? Why does he have to cause trouble again?

"Young Master Jiang, there's no need for us to be so pessimistic, is there?"

Wang Hai and Zhang Long also had complicated expressions.

How about a match against Su Lin's Xuanjia Shield Turtle?

Even those two guys who were above level 20 wouldn't dare say that. Although Jiang Feng leveled up twice after entering the dungeon, he was only level 10!

Putting everything else aside, with your small frame, if the other side were to unleash a water jet, you wouldn't even be left with bone fragments.

"That's interesting."

Su Lin said lazily, "Young Master Jiang, as expected of an S-rank professional, your courage far surpasses that of ordinary people. You want to fight my Shield Turtle? Sure, I'm ready anytime."

"Wait, who said I was going to fight it..."

Jiang Feng's hard-won momentum immediately deflated.

Fighting is out of the question.

With his fragile build, if he were to actually fight the Xuanjia Shield Turtle, it wouldn't just be asking for a beating, it would be like lighting a lantern in the toilet – he'd be asking for death!

"Then I don't understand, Young Master Jiang, what do you mean? You don't mean you want to fight me, do you?"

Su Lin said with a smile.

"Damn it! Who do you think you are? I'm not that shameless."

Jiang Feng became even angrier.

He was, after all, a dignified S-rank genius. How could he possibly surpass his pet and fight against a beast tamer who had no combat power? That would be the act of a beast.

"Su Lin, you don't need to be sarcastic."

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Feng suppressed his emotions and said earnestly:

"Let me be frank, what I mean is, I want to compete with your Xuanjia Shield Turtle in terms of damage output!"

Compare outputs?

Upon hearing this, Wang Hai and Zhang Long breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, it seems that Young Master Jiang isn't foolish enough to seek death.

However, after this sweeping victory, the terrifying output of the Xuanjia Shield Turtle is evident to all, even more exaggerated than that of the BOSS.

Even when it comes to output, isn't Young Master Jiang a bit overthinking this? How dare he?

Are you sure?

Su Lin was also quite interested.

"certainly!"

Jiang Feng nodded:

"Judging by the time, we'll be fighting the BOSS soon, so I'll compete with it to see who can deal more damage to the BOSS."

He paused, then quickly added:

"However, the condition is that I can use any means other than skill scrolls, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

No wonder Jiang Feng dared to compete; he had a trump card up his sleeve.

Without a doubt, as the young master of the Star Moon Merchant Guild, he must possess many treasures such as potions and pills that enhance output and recovery abilities.

In addition, the strength of the Xuanjia Shield Turtle Water Tornado is obviously its area-of-effect damage. While it is not bad in terms of single-target damage, it is still significantly weakened.

In addition, fire-type attacks deal bonus damage to plant-type monsters.

Given all these factors, this drug-using mage, decked out in luxurious gear, might actually be a worthy opponent.

However, even if we win like this, it would be a very unfair victory, wouldn't it?

Zhang Long and Wang Hai dared not say these words aloud, but their expressions were clearly somewhat strange.

Jiang Yuyao was much more direct, coldly saying:

"Comparing your damage output to defensive pets, and even using potions? Jiang Feng, you've really gone too far!"

"..."

Jiang Feng blushed.

He knew that if he did this, even if he won, there would be nothing to be proud of.

But there's really no other way!

In this situation, if he doesn't find a way to regain some face, he'll really be bursting with pent-up frustration!

So even if people say he's shameless for winning, he's determined to win at least once!

Thinking of this, Jiang Feng simply spoke his mind:

"Su Lin, I won't hold back. Anyway, your Xuanjia Shield Turtle is now recognized by everyone as an incredibly powerful mutated beast. I don't care what method I use, as long as we win, that will be enough to prove that I'm not mediocre!"

As he spoke, he stared intently at Su Lin: "So, do you dare to take this bet?"

Jiang Feng was worried that Su Lin would refuse.

After all, such unfair conditions would probably not be accepted by anyone, and they might even take the opportunity to ridicule Jiang Feng.

However, Su Lin is no ordinary person.

"Why didn't you answer?"

Instead of continuing to ridicule Jiang Feng, he changed his impression of Jiang Feng because of Jiang Feng's fighting spirit and honesty, and looked at him with more respect:

"I'm surprised you can say these things so frankly."

"To be honest, I don't really mind. After all, the biggest difference between professionals and monsters is that they can use external things to enhance their combat power. If you have the means to use them, that's your skill, and there's nothing shameful about it."

"I, Su Lin, am not a petty person, so I'll just say it outright. We've already vented most of our anger over the past grievances."

"If you want to compete, then compete. After the competition, no matter the outcome, everything will be wiped clean."

"However, since it's a competition, there should be some kind of prize. What will you say if you lose?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuyao, Wang Hai, and Zhang Long were all taken aback, and then their faces lit up with joy!

Especially Jiang Yuyao.

During this time, although she didn't say it out loud, she was constantly troubled about how to repair the relationship between Jiang Feng and Su Lin.

She had originally planned to teach Jiang Feng a lesson after the dungeon ended, making him apologize with a bundle of thorns on his back. But now that Su Lin was so magnanimous, it was a great thing for her.

"you……"

Jiang Feng was also stunned, his expression complicated, overwhelmed with emotions, and he almost shed tears!

As a scion of a prestigious family with a brain, heaven knows how much pressure he was under during this period. Every minute of those short ten minutes felt like an eternity!

He would never have proposed such a shameless challenge unless he was completely devastated.

Unexpectedly, it was Su Lin who ultimately understood and comforted him!

ashamed!

Moving!

I am so ashamed!

"Su Lin, you, you, I really don't know what to say. I have to apologize to you. I was too petty before. Thank you for your forgiveness. No matter what the outcome of the next match is, I admit it. I give up!"

Overwhelmed with emotion, Jiang Feng gripped his staff tightly and bowed solemnly.

He previously felt that apologizing to Su Lin was a shameful thing and that he needed a way out.

That's because, although he acknowledged that the Xuanjia Shield Turtle was extremely strong, even terrifyingly so, deep down he still harbored some resentment!

But now, he is truly convinced, completely convinced!

"No need for that. I've said before that I don't need anyone's apology. This isn't directed at you, but rather because I never care about what others think when I do things."

Su Lin smiled.

Although he was speaking from the heart, he was also very satisfied with Jiang Feng's transformation.

There's a saying that goes, "When you're out in the world, you should make as many friends as possible and as few enemies as possible."

It wasn't a deep-seated hatred to begin with. If you're angry, you can make up. Why offend someone so badly?

What's more, this person is the young master of the Star Moon Trading Company.

"No matter what, I've learned my lesson, Su Lin. I consider you my friend now."

Jiang Feng said earnestly.

Wang Hai and Zhang Long, standing nearby, wanted to applaud and cheer.

Right! It would be so much better if things were peaceful and harmonious. Heaven help us, there's a huge gap between the big spender and the powerful figure, and they're under a lot of pressure too!

"Oh?"

However, Su Lin raised an eyebrow: "Making friends is fine, but as for the competition we just talked about, are we still going to have one?"

"Compare!"

Having been forgiven, Jiang Feng regained some of his confidence and nonchalance, raised his staff, and shouted:

"The conditions remain the same as before, but if I lose, I'll give you a top-tier beast pet, which will definitely be a mutated species!!"
