Lin Chen nodded, and then the Ant Queen gratefully shouted a few times toward them, indicating that they could seek its help if needed.
Finally, the Ant Queen left one Fire Ant behind and led the rest of the Fire Ant Beasts in a grand departure.
Once they left, Lin Chen immediately asked the Fire Ant Beast to lead the way.
A Fire Ant Beast King Egg is indeed impressive, but Lin Chen originally intended to help Zhang Suqing find it.
Now, however, the Ant Queen told him there might be an immortal-grade Spirit Egg here, so Lin Chen naturally wanted to seize it.
After all, since he was already here and there was no life-threatening danger with the Great Elder and the Island Guardian Spirit Beast watching over.
Lin Chen felt this deal was quite worth it.
With the Fire Ant leading the way ahead, Lin Chen and company followed behind, only to soon hear the sounds of a battle.
As they moved closer and saw, they were stunned, because they discovered it was Wu Gui and Zhao Jin who were fighting.
These two had apparently been chased down by the Fire Ant Beasts and were now in a fierce battle.
One had to admit, they had some skills to resist four or fifty pursuing Fire Ant Beasts.
"Hey, meeting again."
Lin Chen suddenly spoke, causing Wu Gui and Zhao Jin to be taken aback.
When they turned toward the sound and saw it was Lin Chen, their expressions instantly darkened like charcoal.
But in the next second, their expressions became even more alarmed.
Because they discovered that Lin Chen had walked out from within the swarm of Fire Ant Beasts.
"You... you all..."
Wu Gui and his group looked at Lin Chen incredulously.
Why weren't the Fire Ant Beasts biting him?!
...
"Curious?" Lin Chen squinted with a smile.
Wu Gui and Zhao Jin seemed to understand something, with the former saying, "If you want to help the Ant Queen reclaim the Spirit Egg, you'll have to defeat us first."
Upon hearing this, the corners of Lin Chen and the others' mouths twitched, with Xiaobai and the three Spirit Beasts looking at them sympathetically...
They still thought that the Spirit Beast Egg they held was real.
Xiaobai and company felt both relieved and proud...
Compared to them, their Beastmaster had a far superior mind, almost like having a cheat.
Lin Chen didn't respond to their words but instead said to the nearby Fire Ant Beast, "I'll help you punish them. You tell the Ant Queen about my contribution."
The Fire Ant Beast was naturally angry seeing so many of its kin injured by the other side and looked at Lin Chen gratefully at the same time.
Lin Chen then waved his hand, signaling Xiaobai and Xiao Hong to step forward.
The Big White Bear also wanted to join in, but given its weaker strength, it naturally couldn't participate.
Seeing this, Wu Gui and Zhao Jin were both angry and amused, saying, "Lin Chen, who do you think you are? Didn't you just rely on luck to beat a few people from a foreign country and now think you're invincible?"
Lin Chen snapped his fingers, signaling Xiaobai and company to make their move, while saying:
"Whether it's luck or not, you'll know soon enough."
As he spoke, Xiaobai and Xiao Hong transformed directly.
Their opponents' Spirit Beast Levels weren't even as high as Xiaobai and Xiao Hong, so Lin Chen didn't consider them worthy opponents at all.
Xiaobai and Xiao Hong, the two little fellows, immediately went into action. One unleashed a Demon Bull Appearance, and the other entered True Flame Mode directly.
Xiaobai took the lead, facing a level 36 and a level 35 Spirit Beast. The moment it appeared with the Demon Bull Appearance, the two Spirit Beasts completely lost the will to fight.
However, the Demon Bull's pounce was already upon them, and the aura and power had already made the two Spirit Beasts sense the breath of death.
At the same time, the Little Fox's True Fire Nuclear Bomb was also tossed out, engulfing the two opponent Spirit Beasts in a fiery storm.
At this moment, Wu Gui and Zhao Jin sensed their Spirit Beasts' cry for help, only then did they awaken to the realization.
This Lin Chen, able to fight two at once at a place like the Beast Fighting Conference, was clearly no pushover.
Wu Gui reacted quickly and immediately shouted:
"Sir, save us!"
Almost instantly, a wave of spatial distortion appeared, followed by the True Fire Nuclear Bomb and Demon Bull Appearance being swallowed.
Soon after, a middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere, the leader of this Dubhe Pavilion team, named Guo Hua.
Guo Hua naturally wasn't capable of this on his own; he relied on the Island Guardian Spirit Beast to teleport him there.
When Guo Hua appeared, he glanced at Lin Chen and said, "Lin, that's enough."
Lin Chen didn't speak, just stared at Guo Hua.
He wasn't afraid...
At worst, he'd call the Great Elder over too.
Seeing that Guo Hua didn't have much hostility, he said, "Got bitten by dogs, just wanted to discipline them a bit, wasn't planning to kill."
Guo Hua wiped sweat from his brow.
If not for the Island Guardian Spirit Beast's intervention, those four Spirit Beasts on their side would have been gone for sure.
This year's Beast Fighting Conference's acknowledged strongest, sure enough, terrifying beyond compare.
The Spirit Academy indeed produced a talent, no wonder Yu Xiu had been closely watching him.
Having said that, Lin Chen let the Fire Ant Beasts go and finally cupped his hands toward Guo Hua and departed.
Guo Hua, seeing Lin Chen showing him respect, also nodded slightly.
After Lin Chen left, Wu Gui and Zhao Jin hadn't even started celebrating their survival before they began fighting over the Beast King Egg.
Upon hearing this, Guo Hua sneered directly:
"Are you two really that stupid or just pretending?"
The two were stunned, furrowing their brows.
Even though Guo Hua worked for the Dubhe Pavilion and his status wasn't low, the families backing the two of them were not something Guo Hua could afford to offend.
When they were about to express displeasure, Guo Hua said coldly, "Lin Chen didn't even ask for it, so you know this egg is fake. Do you really think Lin Chen is a good person?"
Only then did the two come to a realization and look at the egg in their hands, recalling being chased for an hour while joyfully holding onto it.
