"He has perception-type skills, run!"
Shattered flesh and blood splattered on the faces of others nearby. Their pupils constricted, and a chill ran from the soles of their feet to the crown of their heads.
As soon as the words fell, various Beast Tamers, riding their respective beasts, darted out from the shadows.
"Heh heh, I was wondering how long you guys could hide."
A soft laugh echoed behind one of the Beast Tamers. He whipped his head around, and in that instant, he felt like his heart skipped a beat.
A humanoid creature, blood-red all over and gaunt, stood behind him, staring at him with calm eyes.
The feeling was as if he were a frog being watched by its natural enemy.
The Beast Tamer stared at the Bloodstained Saint standing behind him, every cell in his body screaming at him to get away from this monster, but his feet were frozen in place.
He watched helplessly as the Bloodstained Saint raised his hand and thrust it forward.
What is he doing?
At this moment, only this thought remained in the Beast Tamer's mind. He could feel a slight pain in his chest, but it quickly disappeared without a trace.
He lowered his head and saw only a hand piercing through his chest.
So that's how it is, I'm dead... …
His vision gradually blurred, and in the last moment before losing consciousness, he heard the painful wails and hateful roars of his Beast.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's always like this. It's just that I don't play by your rules, and I just happened to pick up your chessboard and smash it over your heads, causing some bloodshed. What's the big deal? You make it sound like I'm some heinous villain."
Looking at the battlefield that had calmed down, Qian Er put his hands on his hips and sighed twice, kicking away a head that had rolled to his feet.
"After being a chess player for so many years, it's time for a change."
After speaking, Qian Er found a few corpses and piled them together to a suitable height. Then, he sat on the pile of corpses and took out a few bags of snacks from his spatial backpack, munching on them voraciously.
Is it over? Of course not.
Qian Er didn't believe that they would put in so much effort just to send out a few Garrison-level Beast Tamers for him to kill.
Just as the battle on this side had just ended, he saw a red cloud falling from the sky, landing on the ground. It was a red goldfish nearly three meters long, with an elegant and luxurious appearance, a large belly and long tail, and a fleshy crest on its head like a tiger's head.

This is currently the only Quasi-King Beast that has appeared on the battlefield besides Qian Er's Beast.
"How are you... …You took care of them all?"
The person who jumped down from the Tigerhead Carp was a middle-aged man in military uniform. He glanced around and finally focused his gaze on Qian Er, his eyes full of amazement.
"Good kid, we over there thought that your strength had increased too quickly, so you didn't have much practical experience, and you would have problems when facing more than one enemy. They urged me to come over and help you as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that you would just solve them all."
The middle-aged man walked to Qian Er's side and said with emotion.
"Oh, right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Fu Jiaping, the current General Zheng Nan of Yan Country. Although I'm not from the same faction as you, we're still comrades in the military. We'll be eating from the same pot in the future, so there's no harm in getting to know each other. Don't keep such a straight face."
Perhaps because they were both Quasi-Kings, the middle-aged man didn't put on any airs. He didn't care that Qian Er was younger than his grandson. He walked over and put his arm around Qian Er's shoulder, saying in a very familiar manner, while taking out his identification.
"Is that so? Please forgive me, Brother Fu. Wasn't I just attacked, so I don't dare to be careless?"
After confirming that it was him, Qian Er scratched his head, a simple and honest smile on his face.
"Haha, I understand, I understand. It's a good thing to be vigilant. Alright, since you've already solved the problem here, then come with me. Let's go see what's going on on the higher-level battlefield. Let me tell you, recently, because of you, those real big shots are almost obsessed, thinking about calculating this and calculating that all day long. They're comfortable, they just have to move their mouths, but it's pitiful for us subordinates, my legs are almost broken these past two days."
Fu Jiaping seemed to be a chatterbox, grabbing Qian Er's shoulder and starting to nag non-stop.
"Is that so? Then I'm really troubling you, Brother Fu. If there's a chance in the future, I'll be the host. Let's have a good drink."
Qian Er also said with a smile, and immediately, Fu Jiaping's eyes lit up.
"That's a deal, I'm just waiting for this meal."
The two of them chatted and laughed all the way like old friends, riding the Tigerhead Carp and flying into the distance, further and further away from Lianyuan City.
After flying for about half an hour, Qian Er, sitting on the head of the Tigerhead Carp, suddenly stopped Fu Jiaping.
"Brother Fu, where are we going?"
He stood up as if he didn't know what was going on, looking down at the Tigerhead Carp, while asking.
"Haha, didn't I say, to a higher level... …"
Fu Jiaping still had a simple and honest smile on his face, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly froze, lowering his head in disbelief. At this moment, a sharp dagger, like the mouthparts of an insect, pierced through his chest.
This was precisely the mouthparts that Qian Er had taken from Sequence Three. He had kept this thing and entrusted the maid cat blacksmith shop to polish it into a dagger and keep it on his body.
It was really unrealistic for a Quasi-King Beast Tamer to be killed by ordinary weapons, and the mouthparts of the Soul Devourer, which could cut souls, were very suitable here.
"You... …When did you find out?!"
Turning around suddenly, coughing up two mouthfuls of blood, his brain was in a trance due to the damage to his soul, but Fu Jiaping still calmed down and ordered the Tigerhead Carp to attack Qian Er.
But before the attack could land on Qian Er, he saw him turn his head and jump off the Tigerhead Carp's body. Below, the Frost Lord, who had been waiting for a long time, caught Qian Er. In the sky, the Tigerhead Carp and the Frost Lord stood facing each other, and the fiery red aura radiated from the Tigerhead Carp, dyeing half the sky red.
On the other side, the Frost Lord stood motionless in the face of the Tigerhead Carp's pressure, with the ice of the dead spirits surrounding him, blocking the waves of heat.
Seeing this, Fu Jiaping finally confirmed that Qian Er had really discovered his abnormality, and then asked unwillingly.
It was only a little bit away from pulling Qian Er into the battlefield of the True King level. At that time, even the aftermath would have killed him thousands of times, but how did he find out?!
"Heh, I've never trusted you. Where does the question of when I found out come from?"
With a soft smile, Fu Jiaping's pupils constricted. He only felt that the world in front of him was gradually shattering, like a dream gradually waking up.
