“Oh? That should be an exciting match.” Princess Jinrou said.
“So, who do you think will win, Sister Jinrou?” Lu Shanli asked.
“He is my attendant. Naturally, I believe he will win.” Princess Jinrou answered indifferently.
Chu Mu glanced at the high and mighty princess but didn’t enjoy the feeling of being treated as a casual entertainment by others.
However, due to the difference in status, this situation was unavoidable. Chu Mu had to break free from Nightmare Demon Palace Xia Guanghan’s control and gain absolute freedom.
Three years ago, when Chu Mu first met Princess Jinrou, she was just a young girl with a slender and graceful figure, her most beautiful face was covered by a thin veil, revealing only her charming and melancholy eyes, giving off an elegant and refined impression.
Three years later, meeting her again, she still wore a thin veil, her melancholy eyes shone with an enchanting luster, but with more nobleness and indifference, losing that touch of girlhood sorrow from before.
Of course, Chu Mu could not help but admit that the young princess’s slim figure under the luxurious robe has become even more captivating, although for some reason, the more beautiful and elegant young princess made Chu Mu lose that heart- throbbing feeling he had when he first met her on the deck.
Chu Mu knew the difference in feeling, in the Nightmare Demon Palace, she was an untouchable princess, facing anyone, she would naturally expose her true nature as a girl without any pretense.
During their time at sea, Princess Jinrou faced a melancholic and desolate ocean, where she didn’t need to pretend and naturally reveal her true nature as a girl.
“With Princess Jinrou watching, you should feel honored, and I presume you both will give all your strength. However, you both have status and, moreover, the princess is present, so try not to be too bloody.” Lu Shanli said.
Lu Shanli’s words clearly meant that Chu Mu and Tian Ji should avoid deadly outcomes in their battle.
Lu Shanli’s words displeased both the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master and Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master, secretly thinking: this Lu Shanli is too hateful, earlier he said the challenger must be prepared to pay with their lives, now he says they can’t kill, isn’t it too unfair to Chu Mu?
“I can only stop attacking when he surrenders. I can’t ensure that there won’t
be any bloodshed.” Chu Mu raised his head, looked indifferently at Lu Shanli, and said.
Chu Mu’s remark made many people frown, only the Green Nightmare Demon
Palace Master and the people of Blue Nightmare Demon Palace showed a smile.
“Chu Mu, do not be too presumptuous in front of the princess and Young Master Lu Yan.” Xia Guanghan said coldly.
Chu Mu glanced at chilly Xia Guanghan and said, “Four years ago, I was an ordinary teenager entering the Nightmare Demon Palace. You taught me how to kill, how to be ruthless. Four years later, I have grown accustomed to killing, but now you are telling me to show mercy and stop short, which is difficult to

Chu Mu wouldn’t change his fighting style because of the arrival of the princess, as fighting with such restraint would be no different from committing suicide.
“Chu Mu! You are getting impatient with life, daring to speak to Lord Xia like that!” Feng Xiang glared angrily and scolded sternly!
“Xia Guanghan, isn’t the Prison Island King your subordinate? He’s so arrogant and disrespectful, not even paying heed to the princess and Young Master Lu Yan.” The Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master immediately revealed a gloating expression and added fuel to the fire.
Xia Guanghan directly ignored the provocative words of the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master, and this contemptuous action made the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master even more furious.
“Battles are about life and death. I don’t like a spar that ends with just a touch. If Young Master Lu Yan and the princess want to enjoy a performance-style battle, then let these useless people have a try.” Tian Ji pointed to the four young people who had given up on challenging and spoke in an even tone.
After Tian Ji finished speaking, the faces of the four young people who had given up on challenging became even darker.
The Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master also frowned. It was unwise for Tian Ji to openly defy the princess and Young Master Lu Yan in public. If they took it seriously, he would also be in some trouble.
Chu Mu turned his head and took a look at Tian Ji, seeing him in a new light. It seemed that Tian Ji was indeed not an ordinary person.
“Both of you have a strong temperament. However, I also like people with a strong temperament, because as I see it, people without a temperament are mediocrities. They simply cannot bear the consequences of impulsiveness. Since both of you like to enjoy yourselves wholeheartedly, just as you say, our little princess is not a delicate girl who can’t stand the sight of blood.” Lu Shanli raised a smile.
Princess Jinrou looked at the two of them and slowly spoke, “When the opponents have no more fighting ability, there’s no need to have a killing intention…”
Chu Mu and Tian Ji nodded, almost simultaneously walking towards the battlefield.
Unknowingly, a strong wind had already picked up, sweeping many fine sand particles across the Gobi Desert battlefield and howling through the air.
Chu Mu, dressed in black clothes, and Tian Ji, dressed in gray clothes, stood on opposite sides of the crevice, twenty meters apart, both looking at each other with indifferent eyes.
“I respect your character, and I don’t have to kill you. I’ll try my best,” said Tian Ji lightly.
“Same,” Chu Mu replied, just as lightly.
Chu Mu’s two soul pets were already on the battlefield, the Rank 5 Stage 6 Demon Tree Warrior and the Level 6 Stage 1 Ice-Feathered Spirit. Since both soul pets had already been revealed, Chu Mu didn’t make any changes.
Tian Ji didn’t make many attempts to scout either, and directly recited the incantation to summon his two soul pets simultaneously using double summoning.
The blue demon flame pattern slowly appeared, giving a cold feeling with its special deep blue flame, making one feel as if they had fallen into a cold abyss of burning flames when under the gaze of the terrifying eyes of the Blue Nightmare Demon.
Rank 5 Stage 4 Blue Nightmare Demon! Tian Ji summoned the Nightmare
Demon Palace’s signature soul pet, the Blue Nightmare Demon, right away!
However, what surprised Chu Mu was that the second soul pet Tian Ji summoned was still a deep blue demon flame, and within the demon flame pattern, another Blue Nightmare Demon with even more vigorous demon flames appeared astonishingly!
Rank 5 Stage 6 Blue Nightmare Demon! Tian Ji actually had two Blue Nightmare Demons at the same time!
The Blue Nightmare Demon was a high-ranking Commander-level creature, and it was hard to find opponents on par with them among the Commander-level. Moreover, Tian Ji’s two Blue Nightmare Demons displayed high talents, and it was evident from their auras that they were much stronger than the delicate Blue Nightmare Demon of Su Yu!
Tian Ji didn’t waste any time and directly ordered the two Blue Nightmare Demons to move left and right, rapidly closing the distance with Chu Mu’s two soul pets to prevent the Ice-Feathered Spirit from having enough space to utilize its ice magic.
“Ning, give the Demon Tree Warrior Ice Armor.”
Chu Mu immediately got ready for battle.
As a Wood Type creature, the Demon Tree Warrior would be at a significant disadvantage against Fire Series opponents. Without Ice Armor, it wouldn’t last long.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s Ice Armor skill was already very proficient, and it didn’t even need to chant the Spirit Incantation to cover the Demon Tree Warrior with a thick layer of Ice Armor.
“Combining the Ice-elemental ranged attack with the Wood-elemental close combat against the two Blue Nightmare Demons puts them at a great disadvantage. It seems that Henghai Yan has to change his soul pet,” Lu Shan Li said calmly.
Everyone nodded in agreement. The two mid-stage fifth-rank Commander-level soul pets were facing two high-ranking Warrior-level soul pets, and there was a level gap.
Chu Mu knew that his soul pets were disadvantaged in terms of levels, but he didn’t think it was necessary to change his soul pets yet.
“Demon Tree Warrior, enter the ground. Ice-Feathered Spirit, float.”
Chu Mu immediately issued the commands, and after giving them, he quickly retreated to make sure he wouldn’t become the direct target of the two Blue Nightmare Demons.
The Demon Tree Warrior let out a scream, and many roots quickly extended from its body, going into the ground at an extremely fast speed.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body slowly floated up while it was enveloped in a rotating storm, rising to a height of twenty meters.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s ice magic could still cause significant damage to the Commander-level Blue Nightmare Demons. When faced with the relentless onslaught of ice magic from the floating Ice-Feathered Spirit, the two Blue Nightmare Demons had to rein in their arrogance.
“Flame Falling, knock down the Ice-Feathered Spirit,” Tian Ji commanded in his mind.
The two aggressive Blue Nightmare Demons immediately let out extremely sharp cries. Frightful demonic flames suddenly flared up, and their slender arms lifted high up, gathering two clusters of burning flames in the sky!
The deep blue flames slowly took shape in the air, becoming even more majestic and burning more intensely.
However, just as the two Blue Nightmare Demons were about to complete the Flame Falling skill, the crevice on the side of the abyss suddenly split open, and six roots covered in Ice Armor lunged out like giant pythons, striking straight at the bodies of the two Blue Nightmare Demons!
The demonic flames on the two Blue Nightmare Demons blazed once again, completely ignoring the huge roots’ whipping attacks!!
“Smack! ! ”
Six roots viciously lashed almost simultaneously on the Blue Nightmare
Demons, causing the Flame Falling they had just cast to deviate slightly.
As the Flame Falling deviated, it became much easier for the Ice-Feathered Spirit to dodge. The two Flame Fallings didn’t cause much effect.
“Demonic Flame Spread.”
Tian Ji, seeing the attack on the Ice-Feathered Spirit was ineffective, immediately ordered the two Blue Nightmare Demons to infuse the flames into the six roots, attempting to spread the demonic flames through the roots to the Demon Tree Warrior’s main body.
The Demon Tree Warrior’s attack seemed to be just a harassment. After the harassment, it decisively withdrew back underground. The blue demonic flames that were spreading followed the roots only up to the edge of the crevice and did not chase into the soil.
“Attack him personally!”
Tian Ji changed the attack target once again, ordering the two Blue Nightmare Demons to leap over the abyss and kill Chu Mu.
As if Chu Mu had anticipated that Tian Ji would try to cause trouble for him, he applied Riding Wind on himself without hesitation and ran away, widening the distance between him and the Blue Nightmare Demons. At the same time, he ordered the Ice-Feathered Spirit to unrestrainedly use its ice magic on the two Blue Nightmare Demons.
Seeing Chu Mu running away, Tian Ji had to give up attacking Chu Mu once again, planning to deal with the troublesome Ice-Feathered Spirit first.
“The cooperation between this one person and two pets is incredibly seamless, with virtually no flaws.”
People with good eyes quickly noticed Chu Mu’s tactical application was extremely experienced. He completely avoided their sharp edges and deliberately wore down the momentum and stamina of the two aggressive Blue Nightmare Demons.
Everyone thought that Chu Mu would change his soul pets shortly after the start of the battle. To their surprise, Chu Mu managed to drain a large portion of the energy from one of Tian Jits Blue Nightmare Demons using his two obviously inferior soul pets, forcing Tian Ji to summon his third soul pet.
When Tian Ji summoned his third soul pet, Chu Mu didn’t hesitate at all and promptly recalled the Demon Tree Warrior, who didn’t have much advantage.
“The battle begins now!!”
Chu Mu smiled and began chanting the incantation without hesitation, activating the soul contract with MO Ye!
MO Ye had completed its Soul Crystal training, and the true purpose of this challenge was for Chu Mu to let MO Ye, who had advanced to the sixth rank, show off its full potential!
