“Thank you, elder, for coming to our rescue!”

While the others were still in a stupor, Zhang Yun was the first to come to his senses, loudly expressing his gratitude to the man standing on top of the giant dragon in the sky.

“Stay safe and return to the city as soon as possible.” The man in the sky swept his gaze over everyone, gave a slight nod, and the dragon under his feet let out a long chant, flapping its wings, flying off into the distance.

From the direction he was flying, it seemed he was headed to Qingzhou City.

“We almost died here this time.” Liu Gu who had come back to his senses scratched his head, and affectionately held the Wind Lion Dog’s large head, “We survived!”

“That’s great!” Liu Xue and Yan Fan also returned to their senses, realizing they were out of danger, their faces filled with excitement.

Du Heng remained silent, but his hands kept stroking their Armored Rhinoceros’s head, his eyes also filled with relief.

“Meow-”

Ziyun’s tense body slowly relaxed at this moment, lazily retreating back into Xu Ran’s arms, its eyes full of joy at surviving the ordeal.

Xu Ran stretched out a hand to pet Ziyun’s soft fur, mulling over the relationship between this suddenly appeared strongman and the Good Luck Charm.

Such a powerful person couldn’t possibly be summoned out of thin air by the System.

The other party was probably already rushing over here, and the Good Luck Charm’s role was to subtly alert them to their predicament and rescue them.

After figuring out the intricacies, his initial shock subsided, but curiosity about the strong passerby grew in his heart.

The man flew towards Qingzhou City when he left, would there be an opportunity to meet him again in the future?

“Alright, let’s quickly return to the city.”

Zhang Yun glanced at the Beast Tide in the distance.

After the one terrifying strike from that strong man’s pet beast, the crazed Transcendent Beings regained their composure.

Together with the concerted efforts of the defenders of Qingzhou City, the Beast Tide was showing signs of defeat at this moment.

This was yet another victory for the human side.

The city gates would not be strictly closed at this moment, they could now retreat back into the city.

The relived group bottled up their joy, boarded the broad back of the Armored Rhinoceros and set off once again for the direction of the city gates.

Holding Ziyun, Xu Ran suddenly spoke, “Team Leader Zhang, do you know anything about the background of that strongman just now?”

“I don’t. He looked unfamiliar, I’ve never heard of him before.” Zhang Yun shook his head, then immediately added, “However, I reckon his status is certainly no lower than that of our Qingzhou City’s City Lord.”

“General Level Beast Master, that’s a mighty being capable of single-handedly guarding a 3-Level town.” Liu Gu murmured in awe upon hearing this, “If I can reach such a level in my lifetime, that would be great.”

Xu Ran nodded in agreement.

The rank of a Beast Master corresponds to the highest growth stage of their pet beast.

The pet beast Red-eyed Demon Dragon of that Beast Master just now was at the General Stage, so he was at least a General Level Beast Master.

Following that, another question occurred to Xu Ran.

“Team Leader Zhang, I recall there are quite a few Leadership Stage pet beasts in Qingzhou City, right? Why are there so few pet beasts at the General Stage?”

The Red-eyed Demon Dragon just now was the most powerful pet beast he had seen with his own eyes. It scared off the Beast Tide with a single strike, which was truly terrifying.

This made him very interested in pet beasts at that level.

If Ziyun could reach the General Stage in the future…

Xu Ran looked at the little one in his arms that seemed clueless, feeling hopeful about the future.

“Upgrading a Pet Beast to the Leadership Stage and upgrading it to the General Stage are completely different concepts.” Zhang Yun shook his head slightly, “Because the General Stage involves the secrets of the evolution of Transcendent Beings.”

“Captain, you know the most, stop being so mysterious.” Yan Fan curiously urged from the side, “Quickly tell us?”

Seeing the curious expressions of the team members, Zhang Yun reluctantly replied, “Alright, I’ll tell you.”

“You should know that when all Pet Beasts are born, their species level is Leader Species.” Zhang Yun’s speech paused slightly, “Only after completing evolution can the species level of the pet beast be upgraded.”

“Pet Beasts of different species levels can reach different growth stages in the future. The leadership stage is the limit that Leader Species Pet Beasts can reach.”

“To break through from the Leadership Stage to the General Stage, Pet Beasts face the constraints of life level.”

“Only by evolving from Leader Species to King Species can Pet Beasts break through the General Stage.” Zhang Yun’s expression grew serious, “This process is perilous.”

“If evolution fails, Pet Beasts will be crippled at best and die at worst.”

“Unless completely certain, never attempt it.”

Hearing Zhang Yun’s words, the members of the Tiger Hunting Squad nodded solemnly in agreement.

Meanwhile, Xu Ran seemed a little stunned.

He recalled the first time he entered the system for a lottery drawing. He caught a fleeting glimpse of a reward on the spinning wheel – an evolution path of the Holy Spirit Race.

Completing evolution following the illustrated pathway seemed to pose very low risk…

At this thought, Xu Ran’s heartbeat accelerated slightly.

“Team Leader Zhang, if the limit of Leader Species is the Leadership Stage, does it mean that the limit of King Species is the King Stage?” He immediately asked, “What kind of level is the King Stage?”

The growth stage above the General Stage is the King Stage,” Zhang Yun nodded, “This is also the limit of the King Species.”

“It is said that after Leader Species evolve into King Species, in addition to an increase in growth ceiling and the awakening of their new skills, a certain skill will also be awakened.”

“This fixed skill is exclusive to the King Species. Every single King Species Transcendent Being possesses it.”

“The Three Star Skill, King’s Power.”

“The Red-eyed Demon Dragon, that the predecessor subdued by using just its aura, was using that skill.”

“In wild groups of Super Creatures, it’s rumored that having this skill allows an entity to easily command an area and become a king among Super Creatures.” So that was the King’s Power?

Recalling the scene where the Red-eyed Demon Dragon easily subdued others just with its aura, everyone showed envious expressions.

Embracing Ziyun tightly in his arms, Xu Ran sank into thought.

Right now, Plucking Fur can gain two-star skills. If Plucking Fur levels up, can it directly gain a three-star skill?

If it is directly possible, what would happen if the King’s Power were taught straight to Ziyun, who has not yet evolved?

Normally, leadership stage pet beasts can awaken at most two-star skills, and learning to master three-star skills is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Only when it evolves to the King Species can they easily master a three-star skill through awakening and postnatal learning.

If Ziyun, by relying on Plucking Fur and teaching, can master multiple three-star skills while still at the leadership stage, would it then still be considered a Leader Species, or would it be a King Species?

“We can return home now.”

While speaking, the Armored Rhinoceros carrying everyone arrived at their destination. Seeing the gates of Qingzhou City within reach, Zhang Yun laughed in relief.

Let’s go! We’re entering the city!
