Chapter 80 Starfire, Once Obscured Among the Crowd, Has Risen!
"Chen Xi, did you see that? We learned about the Pet Beast Guide back in middle school. It’s obvious which is stronger between a Red Fox and a Strong Monkey."
Shen Yun pulled Chen Xi along, staring at Chu Yi’s thin figure as if looking at a comical clown. She said disdainfully, "Where does he get the nerve to fight Xiao Chen, a true prodigy like him?"
As Shen Yun chattered endlessly, trying to instill her elitist theories, Chen Xi’s thick eyelashes quivered slightly, a barely perceptible cold glint flashing in her pure, beautiful eyes.
Once I secure a place in the senior’s heart, this ’best friend’ of mine, so thoroughly captivated by my charm, will become useless. She’ll be dealt with tonight. Then... I can use the ’death’ of my ’best friend’ as an excuse, feigning fear, to grow even closer to the senior.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi’s delicate body trembled slightly. Her pink lips curled into a pleased arc, her gentle gaze falling upon the boy in the arena, who stood tall and sharp like a sword peak.
Strange, Yuan Qiu thought, only half-listening to the junior girl, her thoughts mostly on Chu Yi and their connection.

"What if I lose?" Chu Yi asked calmly.
"If you lose, you agree to one condition of mine," Xiao Chen said lightly, his gaze sweeping across the crowd before landing on a pure-looking girl in a long dress. He declared righteously, "Stop bothering our junior, won’t you? Isn’t it better to just stay cooped up in your lab, concocting your potions?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yi nodded. "Sounds like I’m getting the better end of the deal. However, I’ve also contracted a second Pet Beast."
Saying this, Lulina was plucked from his pocket, its face a mask of utter shock, and landed in his palm. Its delicate petals layered upon each other, white at the base and transitioning to a pinkish-purple at the tips. Its tri-elemental aura shimmered with magnificent colors.
"What kind of Wood-type Pet Beast is this? It looks so weak."
