“Maximum combat ability?”

Su Ping was rather stunned after seeing the evaluation. He secretly complained in his heart; there were usually infinite digits after the decimal when the number reached the maximum combat ability in the system.

He remembered when his combat ability was stuck in 9.9.

But that increase of combat ability was within Su Ping’s expectation. After all, the Purple Python’s combat ability had been more than 80,000 before reaching the Ascendant State. Reaching the upper limit was normal after breaking through.

The Purple Python was unimaginably sturdy with the seven small worlds taught by Su Ping, plus the experiences gained from fighting in the cultivation sites, and the ultimate blood and materials it had absorbed. Its body had evolved after reaching the Ascendant State, and was even more terrifying.

Su Ping estimated that his other pets would only be more powerful when they reached the Ascendant State.

Its combat ability was on the top of all snakes in the Star Lord State. Its aptitude became ultra high after reaching the Ascendant State. It isn’t far from making it into the list.

This means that the pet isn’t strong enough to be on the rank of Ascendant State snakes yet.

However, there are only a thousand spots on the rank. The gap among them isn’t that wide. It’s like having countless numbers between 1 and 2. My pet should be able to make it to the rank after consolidating its cultivation; after all, very few creatures have ever reached the Ascendant State with seven small worlds. It simply lacks consolidation…

Su Ping was rather satisfied with his pet snake’s performance.

It currently had an ultra high aptitude, and also met the requirement for the level six store upgrade.

The Black Emperor Red Feather Phoenix’s aptitude was only mediocre. Although its combat ability was only twenty thousand points less than the Purple Python’s, the latter could kill the former with ease.

The gap between the middle level and the ultra level was too massive.

Most importantly, the phoenix had been in the Ascendant State for a long time. It had quite enough time to consolidate its realm.

The Purple Python, on the other hand, had just passed the Heavenly Tribulation, and wasn’t used to the new power yet. It would surely become stronger!

It had accumulated a lot of power!

Looking at the Purple Python, Su Ping had noticed the benefit of the multiple small worlds he had tried so hard to condense. He was happy to find that his hard work had paid off.

After all, not everything in that world was rewarding; things might be hurtful in the end.

Maximum Ascendant State combat ability, seven small worlds, a law created by itself, and the strengthening that comes with the tribulation… Su Ping saw that a golden mark was appearing on the Purple Python’s forehead.

The last lightning bolt the Purple Python swallowed had turned into a Divine Mark. When its power was activated by said Divine Mark, the power would be on a whole different level. Star Lords were nothing but soft sand in front of Ascendant State power.

But that only applied for normal Star Lords.

Su Ping, for example, was also a Star Lord, but his power had been polished again and again. Adding the compression of eight small worlds, he had already transformed from soft sand into hard rock. Especially thanks to the refinement of the eighth small world, the quality of his power had already exceeded that of normal Ascendant State power!

That was one of the reasons why Su Ping could kill Ascendant State opponents with ease.

“Hooo!”

The Dark Dragon Hound, the Inferno Dragon and the others ran to meet the Purple Python. They examined it carefully, feeling curious and excited.

“It’s much stronger!” exclaimed Little White.

A red-haired boy nodded firmly. “That’s right; we’re no match for him right now. However, we should be able to surpass him when we reach the Ascendant State.”

Once he heard that, the Purple Python glared at him. “Inferno Dragon, do you want to be beaten up?”

The red-haired boy said casually, “I suggest you drop the arrogant act. Otherwise, you’ll be the one getting beat up when we make the breakthrough.”

The Purple Python couldn’t stand the humiliation and immediately swallowed the Inferno Dragon whole.

The Inferno Dragon’s expression changed a bit, then revealed its true form as it tried to break free. However, the Purple Python was very powerful after reaching the Ascendant State, and stopped the dragon’s escape efforts.

The pet snake wriggled and said, “Apologize to me right now, and I’ll set you free. Otherwise, you can come out of my body as poop!”

The red-haired boy had a sour look upon hearing the poop word. He would be too ashamed to talk to anyone if that happened.

“Haha…”

The young Chaos Beast laughed, amused at the thought of the Inferno Dragon swimming in poop.

The Dark Dragon Hound was also gloating. Little White sighed and said, “Being a fellow dragon, I would do anything to come out if I were you, Inferno Dragon.”

The Inferno Dragon roared and tried to break free, but it seemed to be in the middle of an abyss, and its power was quietly swallowed.

Su Ping watched them horse around and shook his head, leaving them be.

The Inferno Dragon soon gave in, and was spat by the Purple Python. Its flesh was already rotten and it looked quite miserable; it was also covered in sticky and smelly mucus.

It quickly unleashed flames that burnt up the mucus covering its body as soon as it was released. Its body was also healed while surrounded by the flames. However, it still seemed to be angry.

The Purple Python transformed into a purple-haired young man. It had only been a kid in the past, but it had grown to become a teenager with a strangely handsome face.

“Smelly snake, how did you become as shameless as our boss?” the Dark Dragon Hound couldn’t help but complain.

The Purple Python glanced at him. “Do you want to travel in my belly too?”

“Get the hell out of here. I feel disgusted whenever I smell you.” The Dark Dragon Hound quickly ran off, but didn’t give in.

The Purple Python ignored him and snorted. “Of all the handsomeness in the world, our boss occupies ninety percent while I take ten percent. You can’t possibly be like me in the future.”

“What an ass-kissing snake!” Little White rolled its eyes.

“Time to go back.”

Su Ping waved a hand and recalled them; his main goal had been met. The customers’ pets were already trained; he sent them back to the contract space and returned to the store.

Back in the store—business was as thriving as ever.

His store had become even more popular ever since he sold the Black Emperor Red Feather Phoenix. Although they only received a fixed number of customers every day, those customers seemed to be richer than before.

Some of the people waiting in line would choose to sell their spots to the rich. Su Ping didn’t intervene as long as it was voluntary. He would take proper measures if anyone complained about people cutting in line, but it was impossible for him to meddle with the voluntary swapping.

“Mr. Su, what a coincidence. I’m here again,” said Milaluo, who was waiting in line. He quickly greeted Su Ping as soon as he saw him.

Even though the store was Su Ping’s, it was still extremely difficult to meet him. Milaluo had been there several times while Su Ping was in seclusion; he could only go back in frustration every time Green Lady received him.

He had realized that none of the staff members in Su Ping’s store were easy to deal with… Oh wait, there was one exception; the one by the door.

That was Tang Ruyan.

The managers in Su Ping’s store were both in the Ascendant State. The previous blonde was gone, replaced by another beautiful girl who was dressed in an ancient style. Milaluo became increasingly scared and even awed of Su Ping, although he hated to admit it.

After all, Su Ping was only a Star Lord, and he was already an Ascendant.

“Indeed. What a coincidence.” Su Ping nodded.

Milaluo coughed and said, “Mr. Su, your business isn’t bad at all, is it?”

Su Ping glanced at the many customers waiting in line. Su Ping nodded and said, “That’s right.”

“Well…” Milaluo didn’t know what else to say, feeling quite awkward for a moment. Even though he had lived a long time, he had spent most of his life alone and he didn’t have to flatter anyone. That was why he wasn’t really good at socializing.

“Are you here to train your pet?” Su Ping went behind the counter and nodded at Green Lady.

Milaluo quickly said, “Yes. The pet you trained for me last time seemed as if reborn; I’d like to try professional training this time.”

“Professional training is unavailable right now. Please wait for the moment.” Su Ping shook his head.

Milaluo was rather disappointed and regretful. He looked around and asked Su Ping telepathically, “Boss Su, are there other pets being sold in your store?”

“Not yet, but there will be in a while.”

“Could you let me know the moment they’re available?” asked Milaluo in a hurry.

Su Ping raised his head and looked at him. “The date is uncertain; you must pay more attention if you want them. We don’t accept pre-orders.”

Considering Su Ping’s expression, Milaluo knew he was being presumptuous and greedy. The former had essentially given him an Ascendant pet for free. Why would he do it again?

However, he almost felt like staying in Su Ping’s store every day upon remembering the great phoenix he had bought. If he missed the next pet to be sold, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

“Sorry for the offense,” Milaluo quickly apologized.

Su Ping shook his head, letting him know it wasn’t a big deal.

When it was Milaluo’s turn, he left two of his Ascendant pets with Su Ping for training. As for the phoenix, he had been keeping it close to strengthen their bond.

Furthermore, the phoenix was already of the highest quality in his eyes; further training was pointless.

The Loulan ancestor examined my phoenix and said it was almost as strong as a Heavenly Lord… Milaluo was excited every time he thought about that.

He would have never dreamed of owning a Heavenly Lord pet, but now he had one. He didn’t really pay much for it; it was almost free.

Milaluo paid for the training and reluctantly left Su Ping’s store while ushered by the sutra old man’s direction.

A few other Ascendant cultivators in line greeted Su Ping and made an effort to befriend him.

They were definitely much better at socializing than Milaluo was. In addition, the group implied that they were interested in purchasing a pet.

Su Ping could speculate that recent pet purchase had been publicized; that was why those people were there. It was rare to see that many Ascendant clients.

Once the maximum customer capacity was reached, Green Lady said to Su Ping, “According to Xiao Tang, many Ascendant cultivators have moved to our street, all because of our store.”

“Oh, is that so?” Su Ping remained casual.

Green Lady didn’t pursue the subject, seeing his attitude. The previous follower of a Deity King didn’t hold her peers in much regard, either.

They closed the store and Su Ping was about to carry on with the pet training—

His watch buzzed exactly at that moment as it received a message.

The buzz tone was special, associated with his master’s number. Furthermore, not many people had his contact information.

He activated the watch, and the data feed was linked with his brain. He accessed the virtual universe and entered a virtual room with the invitation embedded in the message. He then saw his master inside—

“Master?”

Su Ping was slightly surprised; his master rarely disturbed him, unless there was something important.

Shen Huang turned around and asked Su Ping with a smile, “Have you been training in seclusion? How did it go? Have you found your path to the Ascendant State yet?”

The latter shook his head and said, “I’m not training in seclusion precisely. The road to the Ascendant State is… slightly difficult.”

“Difficult?”

Shen Huang was slightly dazed, obviously not expecting to receive such a reply from Su Ping. He suddenly had a bad feeling and frowned. “You haven’t found your path for breaking through? You should have found clues already, considering your potential. Reaching the Ascendant State in a hundred years is impossible for others, but it’s a miracle that you can make happen.”

Su Ping heaved a sigh. “I haven’t found the path yet. I’ve been considering it a lot, but I’ve never gotten a hold of the feeling.”

Shen Huang solemnly asked, “Were you fascinated by someone else’s path? You must walk your own path to reach the Ascendant State. If need be, you can forget the path you’re attracted to.”

“Well…”

Su Ping found it hard to explain.

Shen Huang heaved a sigh, unexpectedly finding that his disciple was stumped on the step before the Ascendant State threshold.

For years and years, many geniuses showed unparalleled potential before the Ascendant State, but they were stuck and couldn’t rise higher!

To think that Su Ping—the most unbelievable genius in history—had to go through the same hurdle.

Even a genius such as Su Ping was also stuck before the Ascendant State!

“Don’t be hasty. You’re still young and have a lot of time,” said Shen Huang. He was unwilling to jump to conclusions; after all, Su Ping was only a few dozen years old at the moment.

Shen Huang would intervene if Su Ping was still unable to find the way hundreds of years later, believing he would have to intervene and remove the wrong thoughts that Su Ping was obsessed with.

“Sure.”

Su Ping nodded and asked, “Master, why did you want to talk to me?”

“Have you ever heard about the Mayhem Star Zone?” asked Shen Huang solemnly.
