Chapter 2328: Hold Your Horses, This Isn’t a Horse Race!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Shuhang was taken aback. Had the game started just like that?

“In this world, there’s no such thing as absolute fairness. I can only provide a relative kind of fairness,” Senior Three-Eyed said with a slight smile. “It seems, Little Tyrannical Song, that you can’t wait to kick off the bet. That’s just what I wanted. So, let the wager begin! In the Divine Horse Battleground, the horse summoned by you and me will race to reach the finish line first, and the winner takes it all!”

He casually clapped his hands, and the wagering ceremony commenced.

The stakes for both sides were one Netherworld Domination Sphere Avatar and one large bottle of Heavenly Dao Eye Drops.

The result of the first round, whether it ended in victory or defeat, was bound to put a smile on Three-Eyed’s face. Therefore, he was in quite a good mood.

With the bet now officially established, Three-Eyed reached out to select a ‘prototype horse.’ After he made his choice, the remaining eight horses simultaneously entered ‘random mode.’ Countless phantoms of ‘divine horses’ from various realms and times floated above their heads.

In the end, eight divine horses with bloodlines of divine beasts appeared at the starting line.

There were warhorses covered in dragon scales, horses engulfed in fiery flames, elemental warhorses made of lightning, nine-tailed demon horses, peculiar horses with just a head but the body of a Qilin Beast, and even heavenly horses and unicorns. They all appeared one after another.

Eight different racehorses were randomly summoned and continuously neighed at the starting point of the track. Their presence was extraordinary.

Simultaneously, numerous copies of the Eyeball Butler appeared in the audience. Each of them cheered loudly to hype up the atmosphere. Some chanting slogans like “Go, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song” could be faintly heard.

“Random summoning. Let’s hope we get a good horse,” Song Shuhang said as he extended his hand.

Summoning an ordinary horse would be a disaster.

‘Senior White, please bless me and let me summon the best one!’

Above his head, a wave of holy apes appeared, singing the song “Lucky 666” to boost Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s luck.

“Don’t worry, the worst I can summon is at the ‘God’ level. Like I mentioned earlier, I’ll ensure it’s at least ‘relatively fair.’ That way, it’ll be enjoyable and challenging,” the Three-Eyed youth said leisurely.

Song Shuhang took a deep breath. While winding up, he suddenly felt a connection between himself and the clockwork horse in his hand. Information about his horse seemed to be extracted and placed onto the racetrack. Even though it was a random summon, it didn’t seem entirely random. When he summoned randomly, it seemed to try its best to relate to the summoner, unless the summoner had never encountered a horse in their life. In Song Shuhang’s mind, many images of ‘horses’ flashed by.

Finally, a pitch-black warhorse stopped.

Song Shuhang was left speechless.

It was him!

The exotic stallion spirit from the organization ‘All the Monsters of the World Should Unite and Become a Family’ appeared to be at the Fifth Stage Realm.

In the world of cultivators, the Fifth Stage Realm was considered a great demon.

However, in the ‘whatever competition ground’ of the Three-Eyed youth, it was definitely at the bottom.

If he really summoned this stallion spirit… he might as well go on stage and run himself!

‘I can’t have this!

‘Change, change.’

Song Shuhang silently chanted in his heart.

Buzz…

At that moment, the summoning ritual completed.

The silhouette of a horse took shape before Song Shuhang.

Song Shuhang was speechless.

He silently looked up at the sky. His face was filled with despair.

Should he give that stallion spirit a good beating later? But after some thought, he decided against it. It wasn’t the stallion spirit’s fault. Even if he wanted to slap it, he couldn’t use this as a reason.

“From your expression, it seems you didn’t summon Ruyi’s horse,” Senior Three-Eyed quirked a smile, saying, “Actually, I wanted to remind you earlier. I was going to say that if you didn’t want to ‘randomly draw,’ I could provide you with two summoning mediums. You could choose one of them. But before I could say anything, you started the summoning.”

“Senior, could you speak up sooner next time?” Song Shuhang sighed.

“No, because I’m very happy,” Senior Three-Eyed said cheerfully.

He took out a horsewhip and placed it into a formation. Then, he wound up the spring of the ‘horse’ and put it in the core of the formation. “Come forth, and blind Little Tyrannical Song! Presenting the king of all horses in the universe,

Emperor Ma! ”

In the next moment, a handsome horse leaped out of the array.

No exaggerated dragon scales, no flames, no whirlwinds, no lightning, no horns or wings—it looked like a regular horse with no mutations.

However, the moment it appeared, it exuded an aura of uniqueness.

It raised its head and neighed. The other eight horses on the field appeared somewhat intimidated. The neighing served as the background music for the horse’s grand entrance.

As it stepped forward and walked, flowers blossomed among the grass seeds on the grassland as if welcoming its arrival.

In addition to the background music, there were also background effects.

It received the treatment of a main character.

How was Song Shuhang supposed to compete?

He looked at his entirely black warhorse… It was the stallion spirit.

It was over.

Just as he was lost in thought, the stallion spirit, upon seeing the horse emperor, happily trotted towards it without fear.

‘Don’t tell me you’re in heat right at the start of the game!’ Song Shuhang thought.

“Senior Three-Eyed, can I take the place of the warhorse?” Song Shuhang asked with a despairing expression.

“Are you a horse? If you are, then I’ll agree to let you participate,” Senior Three-Eyed said merrily.

By this time, the stallion spirit had already joyfully bounded to the side of the horse emperor, as if trying to gain its favor.

Emperor Ma raised its head slightly. As the king of horses, it couldn’t even tolerate the presence of eight random horses with a single neigh. Naturally, it had its pride.

Just then, Song Shuhang’s black horse suddenly stood up and stamped its hooves on Emperor Ma.

Pa!

Emperor Ma was slapped to the ground. It struggled and howled in pain.

Song Shuhang was flabbergasted.

The Three-Eyed youth stared in shock.

All the eyeball butlers in the audience were also stunned. Even their cheers ceased.

Everyone, including the horses, fell into silence. But the black horse didn’t cease its rampage. After knocking Emperor Ma to the ground, it continued to stomp on the horse emperor’s body with its front hooves.

“Stop, stop! We’re here for a horse race, not a horse brawl,” Song Shuhang urgently pleaded.

At the same time, he had a premonition.

The stallion spirit definitely wasn’t this audacious.

“Hiss, hiss…” The black horse stood upright like a human. Its two front limbs stretched out to the sides like a white crane spreading its wings, while its rear legs defied joint structure and assumed the stance of a lone-standing golden rooster.

Song Shuhang covered his forehead with a palm..
