Chapter 494: Chapter 17: The Girl of Destiny! The Rivalry of Two Spirits_1

…

Even Wang Liyao’s eyes were wide open, looking at the flattering tortoise in surprise.

She hadn’t actually done anything, so what was this tortoise up to?

However, since she was a child, she had been accompanied by a Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise and was quite familiar with its temperament and body language. She knew that this young Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise really liked her, and it was trying to please her.

So, Wang Liyao also stroked its head to show she liked it too.

With this, “Miss Nine” became even more excited, circling Wang Liyao round and round. Its turtle nose sniffed continually, as if trying to remember the scent of its future owner.

The rich and pure Primordial Water scent, her master’s so impressive. Wow, wow~ The old ancestor was right, my Miss Nine’s opportunity has arrived. Its mouth moved, emitting excited sounds.

Unfortunately, she’s only a level-three Spirit Tortoise, unable to communicate with her master directly. Except for a few rare breeds, fierce beasts and spirit beasts cannot speak human language until they reach level seven. Some special species can’t even speak human language at level seven.

Miss Nine’s excitement and flattery rendered the surrounding onlookers silent, as if they were stunned by this unexpected scene.

What’s going on? Miss Nine, who was always proud and aloof, suddenly changed her temperament and began to flatter humans?

Especially Brother Lexian, whose face turned pale in surprise. It’s as if the ice queen he has been courting for who knows how long has suddenly fallen into someone else’s arms with such fiery passion.

Before they could react.

A small bag hanging on Wang Liyao’s waist suddenly started shaking violently, as if something wanted to break free from it. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she gently patted the bag, whispering to reassure it: “Little Sparrow, be good, it’s not convenient to let you out now. When we get back, I’ll feed you some good food.”

Unexpectedly.

The thing in the bag struggled even harder, and a faint chirping sound could be heard.

Left with no choice, Wang Liyao loosened the knot of the small bag slightly, and a red bird head suddenly popped out of it.

On its fluffy head were two tufts of long red feathers. The moment its sparkling eyes saw Wang Liyao, it started chirping and protesting. What did she mean by letting it out later?

If it came out any later, the noble Departure Fire “God” Sparrow would be outshone by a stupid tortoise.

A stupid tortoise?

Miss Nine, the Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise, whether she actually understood the words or just sensed the hostility, glared back with its turtle eyes and began to grumble.

Of course, this angered the Departure Fire Sparrow, which flew out of the bag, chirping and fussing. Its body with transformative magic became larger, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a “big bird” over a yard long. The feathers all over its body were red, like a ball of jumping flames. Its tail fanned out like a hand fan.

The only thing that seemed slightly out of place was that the Departure Fire Sparrow, which should have been somewhat slender, was now overly round, giving it the appearance of a robust, chubby bird.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp.” The Departure Fire Sparrow flapped its wings and stretched out its fat head, which was so large that it almost couldn’t see its neck, spraying the Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise incessantly.

“This…this…” The shocked faces of the disciples watching from the line of Primordial Water were stunned. What kind of background does that “ordinary” looking girl have?

Not only did she possess a Departure Fire Beast, but she also carried it in a bag specifically for spirit beasts. Those who know, know that spatial bags for spirit beasts are much more expensive than storage rings. Even the core disciples of the Primordial Water lineage can rarely afford such a thing.

“This girl must come from a distinguished family.” Sister Yu Yun, who was enjoying the scene from a distance, said with a slightly serious face, “She’s probably the daughter of some Grade Six Prominent Family.”

“So what if it’s a Grade Six Prominent Family?” Brother Zhenghua’s face also turned slightly displeased, “I also come from a Grade Six Prominent Family. You’re talking as if you think highly of me. In a fight, wouldn’t I still get pinned down and trampled on?”

In the Purple Abode Academic Palace, it is generally not allowed to discuss one’s family background. However, people like Brother Zhenghua from the Rank Six families cannot hide their origins for long.

Ordinary disciples might care about this, while core disciples are mostly envious. After all, those who have reached the level of core disciples mostly come from families with decent conditions. Given their potential and status as a core disciple, they will at least be a local advanced Stage Heaven Human Realm big shot, even if they don’t reach the Purple Abode Realm.

As core disciples of the grand Purple Abode Academic Palace, their horizons naturally aren’t ordinary.

The only ones they truly fear are those from fifth-grade Purple Abode Prominent Families or direct disciples of some major figure.

Therefore, the Academic Palace and prominent families always represent two completely different paths. Their life trajectories and expectations for the future are also entirely different.

While everyone was shocked and discussing.

The bird and the turtle got louder and more lively, one chirping non-stop, while the other groaning. Even though their “language” was unintelligible to everyone, it didn’t prevent them from understanding that they were cursing at each other.

Naturally, both the Departure Fire Sparrow and the Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise, who both have quite a temper, started fighting, spraying fire and water alternately. Fire and water intertwined and collided intensely, making the scene look quite realistic.
