Upgrade Specialist in Another World

Battles were popping up everywhere around the Beast Taming School. Hardly any distance could be traveled without bumping into a beast tamer fighting a soulbeast, especially if one took to the skies.

But Lin Xiangtian wasn’t looking any of the battles. His eyes were focused only on Bai Yunfei. He felt nothing but hatred and despise for the person in front of him.

If no soulbeast was attacking him, then that was fine with him! He’d kill Bai Yunfei himself then!

The only thing that made him hesitant was the people next to Bai Yunfei, Li Chengfeng especially. The fact that this person was a Soul Emperor at such a young age shocked Lin Xiangtian. But only for a moment.

Waving his right hand, Lin Xiangtian summoned a giant black scorpion!

“Hssss!!!”

The scorpion let out a shrill cry when it appeared. Both its pincers clashed together menacingly, drawing sparks whenever they struck together. The tail behind it grew blurry for a moment before it flew forward to stab Bai Yunfei!

It was an early-stage class eight soulbeast, the blacksand scorpion!

“Let me handle this soulbeast, Yunfei.”

Li Chengfeng requested upon seeing their enemy send out a ‘single’ early-stage class eight soulbeast to deal with them.

“Alright, be careful then.” Bai Yunfei nodded, his eyes still focused on Lin Xiangtian.

Under the command of Lin Xiangtian, the scorpion charged for Li Chengfeng, but at an angle so that Li Chengfeng could be drawn a little farther away. That way Bai Yunfei and Lin Xiangtian could fight without being disturbed.

Controlling class seven soulbeasts and above were different than controlling class six soulbeasts and under. Class seven soulbeasts only required a single command for autonomous control while class six soulbeasts required multiple. As such, this meant the beast tamers could simply let these class eight soulbeasts fight by themselves with just a single command.

The early-stage class eight blacksand scorpion wasn’t even close to being Lin Xiangtian’s strongest soulbeast puppet. It was only meant to be a diversion to distract Li Chengfeng.

Logically speaking, a Mid-stage Soul Emperor like Lin Xiangtian shouldn’t be so afraid of an Early-stage Soul Emperor like Bai Yunfei. But Lin Xiangtian knew what Bai Yunfei was capable of. The normal classification of levels didn’t mean much when Bai Yunfei was involved.

After all, Bai Yunfei was able to defeat Nether and Duan Leiting’s avatar as a Peak Late-stage Soul King and steal away his medium. And to make matters worse, Bai Yunfei was now a Soul Emperor, meaning he was even more dangerous than before. There was no way Lin Xiangtian was going to take him lightly again.

The topper on this situation was seeing a prisma oriole, a soulbeast that shouldn’t be a class eight soulbeast, controlling the class eight galewing lion…

“Boom boom boom…”

The battle between Li Chengfeng and the blacksand scorpion was finally starting to take place a kilometer away to the right. Meanwhile, Bai Yunfei and Lin Xiangtian were still staring at one another. Neither person had yet to move a finger.

Anyone would’ve been surprised by this strange fight. Intense battles were happening everywhere on this battlefield, but this part of the field was strangely quiet and without a battle.

The ten seconds that went by felt far too long to Bai Yunfei. And the longer the two stared at one another, the more Bai Yunfei felt like something was off.

Bai Yunfei was hesitant to do anything reckless since he was up against a Mid-stage Soul Emperor. All Lin Xiangtian had to do was unleash a soulbeast puppet if he attacked, but…why hadn’t Lin Xiangtian summoned another soulbeast puppet yet then?

It was at this moment that Bai Yunfei noticed the strange twinkle in Lin Xiangtian’s eyes!

“Not good!!”

Xiao Fang’s voice spoke into Bai Yunfei’s mind at the exact same time!

“Yunfei, there’s a disturbance in the spatial energy, be careful!!”

“Bzzz…”

Snapping his head up, Bai Yunfei saw that the spatial energy around him was starting to warp strangely in on themselves!

There had been no warning to this new abnormality! None at all!

It wasn’t just the spatial energy he could feel being disturbed. A powerful source of soulforce was also causing havoc in the world around!

“A soulbeast! A mid-stage class eight soulbeast one too! Where is it?!”

Hurriedly scanning the battlefield for where the soulbeast might appear, Bai Yunfei was stunned to see that it was nowhere to be found!

It was peculiar beyond peculiar. The aura of a mid-stage class eight soulbeast could be felt, but the soulbeast itself was nowhere to be seen! He couldn’t even pinpoint the area with the strongest amount of soulforce! It was as if the soulforce was being evenly distributed without a source!

It was enough to make Bai Yunfei feel like he was imagining things. But then as if to make matters even worse…

A mirage-like light began to spread across the land. Seemingly devouring the world, the light turned everything it touched into darkness, soulforce included!

“What’s going on!? Yunfei, where’d everyone else go?!”

Xiao Qi cried out to Bai Yunfei in confusion.

But Bai Yunfei had no answer. He was still glaring at Lin Xiangtian, he could see that Lin Xiangtian was looking happy for some reason!

The only thing he could sense right now was the galewing lion beneath him and Xiao Qi on his shoulder. Everything else was either gone or was Lin Xiangtian. In other words…Lin Xiangtian was responsible for this!

A derisive sneer appeared on Lin Xiangtian’s face at Bai Yunfei’s confusion. “Bai Yunfei…the Phantasm will become your burial ground!”

A flash of golden light erupted from Lin Xiangtian’s right hand when he waved it. Bai Yunfei only saw something shaped like a whiplash out through the air!

Having not expected for something like that, Bai Yunfei barely managed to have the galewing lion take him and Xiao Qi up higher into the sky!

“Bang!!”

The golden beam of light slammed onto the area where Bai Yunfei once stood with a loud smash. Then as if it struck solid ground, the whip shattered apart the area as if it was a mirror!

“Swish swish swish swish…”

The galewing lion flew a hundred meters or so before stopping. From on top of it, a stunned Bai Yunfei was looking at the damage that was created. But before he could observe it for long, another seven beams of golden light were already coming at him!

Meanwhile, in the skies above the Beast Taming School.

Anyone would be able to see the intense battles happening down below on the earth. The army of soulbeasts clashed intensely with the soulbeast puppets one after another like tidal waves. Leading the army from the skies were the Golden Lion King and the Twin Winged Kings. Along with the other class seven soulbeasts, they were fighting the class seven soulbeast puppets of the beast tamers.

Everyone was avoiding the part of the battlefield where Bai Yunfei and Lin Xiangtian were, for there was a curtain of strange light that covered the sky there!

No one other than Lin Xiangtian expected to see something like that. It happened so quick that no one even knew what the light was, or what it even did. All they knew was that the moment Bai Yunfei and Lin Xiangtian were touched by the light they disappeared!

But what was even more confusing was how this ‘strange light’ was radiating the aura of a powerful soulbeast!

It was as if the light was alive!

Green and blue light mixed together in a tremendous wave of energy. The Azure Eagle King and the Blue-eyes White Dragon King had struck one another and then retreated several kilometers away for a respite when the latter took notice of the strange energy building up near Bai Yunfei.

His eyes narrowed to think of why this aura felt familiar before he gasped!

“That’s…the Interdimensional Phantasm!!”
