Chapter 36 - The More Intense the Wind Gusts, the Higher the Pig Flies
The pig owner and dog owner were both transported into Limitless City Arena’s designated combat pit.
The room was spacious and open-air and resembled a large tennis court. The gray battlefield was surrounded by a green periphery for the beastmasters to issue commands.
“Should we fight too?” Lu Ran eagerly asked Pig Farmer across the battlefield. Purely watching Captain Doofus fight had its limits for entertainment. After all, Lu Ran had never been all that interested in familiar PvP.
“Huh?” Pig Farmer was confused.
“Beastmasters are divided into two main styles,” Lu Ran explained. "One style enhances the familiar's abilities, letting it do all the fighting while the beastmaster stays safely on the sidelines. The other style uses the familiar to enhance the beastmaster, allowing them to join the battle directly.
“Which type are you? Oh, but I’m guessing you haven’t learned any beastmaster skills yet, so you probably haven’t decided yet. What does the Galaxy Guild member assessment require?”
“W-wait!” Pig Farmer backed up a step, waving his hands frantically. “The Galaxy Guild’s member assessment is completely familiar PvP. No way I’m getting involved myself.”
Lu Ran made a face.
“You look reasonably athletic.”
Pig Farmer shook his head. “The guild elders said that if you’re the first type and something happens to your familiar, you’ll suffer some backlash but won’t die. However, if you’re the second type, you’re risking your own life. They say the death rate for beastmasters of the second type is several times higher. They’re stronger, but their survival rates aren’t better. The elders always warn us never to choose the second type unless we’re reckless idiots. Wait... you don’t plan on becoming the second type, do you? Fighting alongside your familiar?”
Pig Farmer’s expression changed.
