Chapter 344 — A Shattered Worldview

Hearing Eleven's shrill screams, many beastmasters outside felt their hearts tighten, instinctively concluding that Void Sandalwood had struck with savage cruelty this time.

But soon, when their eyes settled on Shi Jin, they were utterly dumbstruck.

For at this moment, Shi Jin was cradling a pet beast egg—and hanging from that egg was a piece of parchment.

The world is very big.

The egg...

Seeing Shi Jin holding the egg, Feng Jin, President Wang, Dr. Chen, Grandma Li and the others, as well as Lu Heng, Zou Yun, Ji Feng, Ning Tianming, Tong Yan and the rest, all froze where they stood, staring blankly at the beast egg, unable to react for a moment.

At that same moment, the black rift in the sky began to close, and from within it came a voice they all knew well.

"The challenge is over. The Starry Sky Beast Legacy has been bestowed. For the ruins, temporarily—ow! Mother of—that hurts like hell! Awoo, awoo, you little shits, how exactly do you work out those Sequence rankings of yours? Real fine work. Next time, don't. Close it!!"

From inside the ruins came a stream of cursing.

Then everyone, mouths hanging slightly open, turned to look at Shi Jin, whose face had aged a decade.

"As expected of a beast personally bred by the Void Emperor. Feels like it's no worse than an Overlord-class creature. If we hadn't been a cut above, we'd have been in real danger." Shi Zhao let out a sigh of lingering fear.

"If only I had an enhancement-type talent..."

Everyone: ???

The beastmasters present came back to their senses, and then—holy shit, wait, what did that mean? They all wore expressions of utter incomprehension! Don't tell them that Shi Jin, the Tan family's hope, had actually defeated Void Sandalwood!!!

The top masters of the Sequence's top ten, plus a whole crowd of elder veterans—all of them had been smashed to pieces by that mantis.

And now Shi Jin, Sequence Eleven, on his very first entry, had taken down Void Sandalwood?!

"I did not fail my mission." Shi Jin patted the beast egg and smiled gently, which only made the crowd's jaws drop even further... It seemed it was true! Really true—so true that Ji Feng and the others in the crowd could not comprehend it, could not understand how that Void Sandalwood had been defeated; so true that Zou Tianwang, ranked tenth, felt his expression gradually warp and crumble...
