Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!

Precious Gift

Kong Rui tried her best to observe the little phoenix. She couldn’t tell what was binding it.

Even if the little phoenix had just hatched, it was still an ancient divine beast. It was impossible for Wen Qiong to control it with just a few whips!

Finally, as Wen Qiong lashed out a third time, Kong Rui saw a pair of jade buttons firmly fastened on the little phoenix’s two phoenix claws.

If Kong Rui wasn’t wrong, the queen had specifically hired a few experts to make it.

Once this pair of jade buttons were buckled, it would be as if they had grown on the host’s body. Not only could they corrode skin and bones,

but those who had the jade buckle could even use the same jade flute to control the host’s actions.

After three lashes, the little phoenix suddenly seemed to be frightened and scurried back in the direction of the side door.

Everyone was still in shock when they saw rubies and golden feathers everywhere.

The queen stood on the high platform and said to the excited audience, “These Blood Weeping Stones and scarlet feathers are a small gift for this Beast Fighting Feast. I hope everyone doesn’t mind!”

A gasp sounded from the audience when they heard the queen’s words.

The Blood Weeping Stone was a spirit energy raw stone that was only recorded in ancient books. It was a rare treasure!

The phoenix’s scarlet feathers were even more precious materials for refining artifacts. They were priceless in the five continents!

Kong Rui looked at the scarlet feathers and rubies on the ground and wished she could strangle Wen Qiong.

These were the blood and feathers of the little phoenix!

Damn Wen Qiong!

Apart from the slaves who specifically collected some for the major families and sects, the treasures on the ground were snatched up by the surrounding members of the various clans.

Kong Rui’s eyes were cold as she looked at the treasures delivered by the slaves.

“The empire is really generous. They gave us such precious treasures right from the start!” Someone in the audience marveled.

“That’s right! This phoenix is rarely seen even in a million years. I didn’t expect it to give such priceless gifts during the spirit beast competition not long after it hatched!” Someone happily put away the Blood Weeping Stone that they had finally obtained.

“In my opinion, the princess is very impressive. This phoenix is only a baby, yet it was tamed by the princess to such an extent. It’s even more amazing than Miss Li appearing on a divine beast!”

“That’s right! I heard that divine beasts are the most difficult to tame when they’re young. Although this divine beast was hatched by the princess, I didn’t expect it to be so obedient and sensible after just a few days.”

Obedient and sensible?

The coldness in Kong Rui’s eyes deepened.

Were all these people blind?

Or were they all deaf?

Couldn’t they see the little phoenix struggling and hear her wailing?

The more Kong Rui thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn’t stop trembling.

Hua Shang seemed to sense Kong Rui’s abnormality and turned to look at her.

Seeing Kong Rui looking down at the treasure and trembling, Hua Shang thought that she was too excited to see the treasure and didn’t take it seriously.

Kong Rui tried to suppress her anger and sat back in her seat while waiting for the best time to rescue the little phoenix.

After such a performance, Wen Qiong knew that she would become famous in the five continents.

But she wanted more than that!

After Wen Qiong showed her face, the queen instructed the ceremonial officer of the competition to announce the competition rules so that the competition could continue.

The protocol officer held a tray in his hand. On the tray, there were a few nameplates made of crystals. “All contestants, please come to my side to draw your nameplates.”

“The nameplate is engraved with grouping symbols. You will fight in pairs.”

“We’ll draw lots today and compete tomorrow.”

“Everyone, please go ahead!”

The protocol officer swung the tray with the nameplate into the air.

The nameplate was flung into the air. Before it could begin to fall, a black whip flashed past and snatched one of the nameplates away.

Nie Yin retrieved the black whip and took off the nameplate. Without looking at it, he placed it on the table beside him.

Lei Aotian raised his hand and grabbed in the direction of a nameplate. His powerful claw grabbed a nameplate back.

Hua Shang followed closely behind. The folding fan in his hand shot out and spun around to bring a nameplate to his side.

Although Fu Jiao’s cultivation level wasn’t as high as the other three, this small matter of taking something from afar wasn’t difficult for her.

With a light tap of her foot, using the railing of the stands as a boost, she leaped into midair and deftly removed a nameplate.

The four major families had all taken away their nameplates. Only the Li family had yet to make a move.

Everyone was eager to see what the Li family would do.
