Chapter 31

The sky gradually darkened, but it was not completely dark yet. There was still a glimmer of light, giving off a hazy feeling.

Jiang Tie stood on the top floor of the breeding area and looked into the distance. The seemingly peaceful forest was suddenly swept by a strong wind, leaving behind tiny shadows.

“The Golden Lion King’s coming. He’s finally here.”

He looked at the peacock and the others below. The latter understood and every animal was waiting at the entrance of the breeding area.

Jiang Tie continued to observe from the top floor. He mainly used his spiritual power. After many enhancements, his spiritual power could cover a distance of 3,000 meters, which was at least twice as much as before.

There was also the White Tiger next to him. Its sense of smell was very sensitive, and it could perceive every animal according to their different scents.

Not long after Jiang Tie warned the peacock below, Jiang Tie and the White Tiger on the top floor seemed to have seen something from afar. Suddenly, their pupils dilated, and they looked at each other solemnly.

“Boss, the Golden Lion King’s troops are far beyond our imagination.”

There was an expression that had never appeared before appeared on the White Tiger’s face. It was extremely solemn. It was really beyond their expectations. The situation was even more critical than they had imagined!

If things went wrong, the tiger might die!

“There are many. There are at least a hundred animals, and among them, there are no less than fifty that are strong.”

Jiang Tie voiced out his own judgment. This figure was probably still very small. This was because the range that his spiritual power could cover was 3,000 meters. However, at a place 3,000 meters away, there were animals rushing over. They were all heading in the same direction, which was the breeding ground!

“What should we do?”

The White Tiger felt the beast tide coming from all directions. His scalp went numb and his hands and feet felt cold. He was really panicking.

This was the first time he wanted to fight with hundreds of animals. Just thinking about it was very scary.

These animals…did not need to use their ability to stomp it into a meat patty!

“That’s not right.”

Jiang Tie suddenly spoke. He had been looking in the same direction and his eyes became sharp.

“Ah, is there a problem?”

The White Tiger was a little confused by this inexplicable sentence.

“The Golden Lion King didn’t bring that many animals. He only brought a dozen animals at most.”

Jiang Tie did not notice it at first, but the closer the animals got to the breeding ground, the more obvious this phenomenon was. As long as he observed the situation for a while, he would be able to find some clues.

The animals that came from all directions were divided into many parts, and some of them moved alone.

If they were all subordinates of the Golden Lion King, there was no need for them to be so scattered and there was no need to keep a certain distance from each other like it was a taboo.

Just as the White Tiger was about to speak, those animals showed up. The breeding ground was brightly lit and it could illuminate the area by hundreds of meters away.

The moment those animals appeared, he suddenly understood the meaning of Jiang Tie’s words.

More than half of the animals that appeared were there to watch the battle, and it was a very obvious scene.

They stood a kilometer away and looked at each other from a distance, wanting to distance themselves from what was about to happen tonight. Partly, it was also to prevent themselves from being injured by the fierce battle.

Jiang Tie stared at the group of animals within 100 meters without looking away. He could tell at a glance which one was the Golden Lion King.

Even if the aura of the Lion King was deliberately restrained, he was still an existence that stood out among the group of animals.

As the king of all beasts, he had a unique dignity and a terrifying aura.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Tie immediately locked onto the Golden Lion King. He sized the lion up without batting an eyelid.

“He’s indeed very strong.”

Jiang Tie was very surprised. The Golden Lion King’s mutation was very different. He had an indescribable uniqueness.

It was different from the other animals on the field. Jiang Tie could not find any clues of his evolution from his appearance. No signs of what could be used to probe into the new ability that the Golden Lion King had evolved.

“It can’t be a molten cave, right?”

Jiang Tie secretly tried to figure it out, but he overruled it in the next second. The coincidence rate of having the same abilities was not that high.

With him were the White Tiger, peacock, and hippopotamus at the breeding area.

The breeding area’s specifications were very special. It had high walls and rocks. This was to prevent other animals from entering. Special attention was paid to this point during the construction of the breeding area. Hence, the only way to the breeding area was through the entrance.

The breeding area was completely surrounded. All the animals were watching the battle. When they saw that the leader was a panda, their first reaction was surprise, followed by disbelief.

For a moment, the animals began to whisper among themselves. They deliberately kept their voices low. After all, with the Golden Lion King here, they did not dare to be too presumptuous.

“The animal that caused the anomaly this morning, and the animal that occupied the Golden Lion King’s territory, is that the panda?”

“It can’t be? Look at the White Tiger next to it. The possibility of him being the leader’s higher.”

“That’s right. How can a panda be that legendary animal that evolved to be very terrifying? He doesn’t look like one at a glance.”

“I thought it was a ferocious beast, but it turned out to be a panda. Hahahaha, he won’t be a match for Golden Lion King!”

“I think so, too. I thought there’d be a good show to watch. I overestimated that panda.”

…

On the other side, the Golden Lion King stared at the panda with a heavy gaze. He was also muttering in his heart.

‘That’s the mysterious animal?’

The Golden Lion King really could not see anything special about the panda. On the contrary, the White Tiger looked very much like that mysterious animal.

This was because when he sized up the White Tiger, he discovered the aura that the White Tiger emitted. From this, he deduced that the White Tiger’s strength was about the same level as the black wolf beside him.

However… The panda seemed to be a little weaker than the White Tiger.

In reality, what the Golden Lion King did not understand was that the panda was different from the other mutated animals. It was actually very easy for the panda to hide his aura.

Both sides were in a silent confrontation. The leading animal did not speak.

The panda, who was standing in the center, suddenly turned around and whispered something to the hippo behind him.

Then, the hippo stood up from behind it and exposed himself in front of the Golden Lion King and the other animals.

“Hippo! You’re not dead?”

The black wolf was very shocked. It had felt that the animals behind the panda looked familiar, but because of the peacock blocking its view, it could not see them clearly.

It recovered from its shock, and anger shot out from its eyes. It asked, “Hippo, what do you mean, you’re in cahoots with them? Or, you were in cahoots with them in the first place, and then colluded with them to deal with the Black Panther and the others?!”

The black wolf was furious. It looked at the hippo with killing intent, as if it wanted to tear the hippo into two.

“Black wolf, don’t slander me. Black Panther’s death had nothing to do with me. It’s all because they’re not as good as us, and they’re too arrogant,” the hippo retorted.

“I’ve told the Black Panther a long time ago, and I’ve reminded them countless times. When something happened with the spiritual fruits, they didn’t listen to me and didn’t tell you in time, which led to their deaths.

“I didn’t do anything wrong, but you’re right about one thing, black wolf. I’ve joined the panda.”

Hearing this, the black wolf could not hold it in any longer. If it had not received the Golden Lion King’s gaze, it would have pounced on the hippo long ago.

The hippo was a traitor. Not only had he joined another animal camp, but he also looked like a lackey. The black wolf could not stand seeing the hippo like this.

Compared to the Golden Lion King’s penny, what ability did the panda have that deserved that much of the hippo’s respect?
