Chapter 981 A Crucial Battle

Seeing that Rocky had summoned a spiritual beast⁠—and not just an ordinary one but one of the five King-level spiritual beasts, the Rainbow Glow Unicorn⁠—Geoffrey was shocked. No beast from the Wild Spirit Land could compete with the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, let alone a beast from the Timber Deity Empire. Naturally, the Dark Ghost Shadow had no choice but to get out of the way.

But once the initial shock dissipated, Geoffrey's eyes narrowed in anger. It was obvious that Rocky's aim was to publicly humiliate him and steal his limelight. And Geoffrey wasn't someone who would sit back and take a punch like this. Whoever dared to provoke him would pay dearly. At this moment, all he wanted to do was to make Rocky disappear off the face of the earth.

However, he was shrewd and poised enough to maintain a calm exterior even though he was burning with fury on the inside. If he exploded in front of so many people, he would definitely become a laughing stock of the Timber Deity Empire in the future. Therefore, he just snorted coldly and said, "I did not expect you to have a King-level spiritual beast, but it doesn't matter. Since you're already the owner of a spirit-manipulated beast, it will be impossible for you to control this King-level spiritual beast. You can show off with it as much as you want, but in the end, it's as useless as an embroidery pillow that boasts a beautiful cover but is stuffed with dried straw."

Upon hearing that, Rocky smiled but said nothing. The truth was, he had summoned Ken just to get on Geoffrey's nerves, so he was just happy that his plan had worked.

"Brother, are you jealous of Mr. Rookie's King-level spiritual beast?" Woods joked, discerning the hint of jealousy in his brother's voice.

Geoffrey's face darkened at once. It was as if they were all teaming up to embarrass him.

However, what Woods had said was right. It was the dream of every spirit manipulator to own a King-level spiritual beast, but it was extremely rare even for a spirit manipulator above the Divine Stage to own a King-level spiritual beast, because getting such a spiritual beast did not depend on power alone. One had to be lucky enough to encounter such a once-in-a-century opportunity. Therefore, like most other spirit manipu

think it's better to let Chief Lucilla's spiritual beast participate," Lucas quickly chipped in. Although the Rainbow Glow Unicorn was a King-level spiritual beast, it was still young and hadn't reached the peak of its strength yet. At this time, it was obviously no match for the Dark Ghost Shadow.

"It's up to you, Mr. Rookie," Lucilla said. She could see that although Rocky looked very calm, his eyes were full of arrogance. And she had known him long enough to know that he would not allow Geoffrey to provoke him. Of course, she also believed that he would make the wisest decision by himself.

Rocky glanced at Geoffrey before turning to Ken with a small smile tugging at the edges of his lips. "Ken, go and have fun then."

With a roar, Ken soared into the air again. After circling in the air for a while, it swooped down and landed in the beast arena.

Seeing that Rocky had decided to send out a King-level spiritual beast to fight the last crucial battle, all the spectators gasped in a mixture of surprise and excitement. Judging by the Rainbow Glow Unicorn's aura, it was obviously not a match for the Dark Ghost Shadow. However, it was very rare for one of the top ten spiritual beasts of the Wild Spirit Land to fight against a rare King-level spiritual beast. Regardless of their different strength, this would definitely be a very eye-catching battle. In particular, everyone was looking forward to seeing what kind of magical ability this King-level spiritual beast would display.
