Chapter 353 A Thundercloud Fifty Thousand Meter Wide

As Joanna was passing the middle-aged man the Shield of Ares, the thundercloud was still expanding but the speed began to slow down.

“I think it’s reaching its limit...”

Joanna gazed into the sky with a grave expression on her face.

The God Warrior had a solemn expression as well. A thundercloud reaching over twenty thousand meters was quite unusual. The Dark Dragon Hound even had the potential of a Celestial God!

They never took their eyes away from the clouds. Soon, the thundercloud stopped expanding The thundercloud’s reach finally stopped at about... twenty-seven thousand meters!

Su Ping, Joanna, and the God Warrior had a good enough sight to measure the diameter of the cloud with their naked eyes.

Grim-faced and shocked, the God Warrior glanced at Su Ping. All of a sudden, he understood why her highness Joanna would treat such a human being so respectfully.

This human being was not simple.

Staring at the piece of cloud, Su Ping said to himself, “That is a thundercloud that an above-average aptitude can summon.”

Boom_!

The thundercloud over the mountain instantly began to dance. Countless bolts of lightning were flickering inside the cloud. It was as if a giant were smashing the cloud, generating a soul-shattering noise!

The middle-aged man stared into the thick thundercloud. He was still shaking in terror, even with the Shield of Ares. He took a deep breath to adjust himself. “Here it comes!”

Boom!

Abruptly, a bolt of lightning struck him.

The middle-aged man clenched his fingers and shouted. He first took out the artifact that Joanna had given him. This was something like an umbrella that was expanding fast while giving out a colorful hue.

The bolt of lightning landed on the umbrella. The majority of the force contained in the lightning bolt was neutralized by the umbrella and the rest of the force reached the middle-aged man, attacking his astral powers.

The middle-aged man mobilized his astral powers to offset the rest of the energy.

By the time the first bolt of lightning was gone, the middle-aged man had been drenched by his own sweat. Fear appeared in his eyes. He didn’t know that the strength of the lighting could be this great.

So, this was how the test was going to be like?

The middle-aged man exercised great caution this time and directly placed the Shield of Ares in front of him.

As he readied himself, the second round of lightning was on its way. This time, there were three bolts of lightning.

Roar!!

The middle-aged man heard a growl near him. The Dark Dragon Hound was running forth. It was losing its mind!

Just then, the Dark Dragon Hound heard Su Ping’s order. He was telling it to rush toward the lightning!

With its wise dog eyes, the Dark Dragon Hound could tell how terrifying the lightning was. But that evildoer was telling it to charge at the lightning without any defensive skills! This is a trap!

The Dark Dragon Hound even had an urge to hurt Su Ping.

When the Dark Dragon Hound first became Su Ping’s pet, it did try to hurt him. However, the Dark Dragon Hound would go through more pain if it disobeyed.

There was nothing else it could do other than resigning to fate since it had such a demon as its master.

Roar!

Come on!!

The Dark Dragon Hound cried wildly as it threw itself at the first bolt of lightning.

The lightning fried the Dark Dragon HoundThe next second. Its fur was burned. Even its bones had become visible the moment the lightning struck.

That hurt so badly!

The Dark Dragon Hound was almost at the last gasp. However, it received a second order from that demon: he was saying to have another go!

@#¥%&!

The Dark Dragon Hound was furious. It roared to vent its rage, but eventually threw its body

-filled with scars and wounds strung together like beads—to the lightning once more.

Soon, the second bolt of lightning smashed the Dark Dragon Hound to the ground. The hound’s fur had been scorched yellow and its blood had dried out from the heat. The Dark Dragon Hound fell from the sky.

Su Ping could sense that the Dark Dragon Hound’s consciousness was gone.

The moment before its death, the Dark Dragon Hound was in excruciating pain. But the death was quick so the pain didn’t last long.

“Revive.”

Su Ping brought the Dark Dragon Hound back to life.

The Dark Dragon Hound’s dead body turned into puffs of energy that reshaped it.

Su Ping gave out his command once again, “Go.”

The Dark Dragon Hound’s eyes turned red and it stared at Su Ping.

All it could see was the calmness in Su Ping’s eyes.

After two seconds of eye-contact, the Dark Dragon Hound was the first to look away. The pet mauled the surrounding vegetation, acting like a crazy dog. Even so, the Dark Dragon Hound once again shouted and dashed to the sky after venting its anger. That scene stunned the God Warrior. Revival? The middle-aged man was ready for the third round of lightning. The Shield of Ares helped him go through the second round easily. He was left astounded when he noticed that the Dark Dragon Hound was approaching once again.

ice

What’s with that dog?!

The Dark Dragon Hound was staring at the thundercloud above with its blood-red eyes.

The Dark Dragon Hound showed its teeth!

Roar! Roar!

It bellowed furiously.

The middle-aged man was dumbfounded.

At that very moment, the third round of lightning came. There were nine bolts of lightning!

Thick purple bolts of lightning were growing rapidly, and then suddenly descended from the thundercloud. For a time, the thunder resounded, the lightning flashed, and the entire sky was illuminated.

Roar!!

The Dark Dragon Hound made a dash for the lightning Two bolts of lightning later, the Dark Dragon Hound collapsed on the ground.

The other bolts of lightning landed on the middle-aged man.

Su Ping didn’t want to waste time waiting while the Dark Dragon Hound was brought back to life so he told the Inferno Dragon to join the fray. The Inferno Dragon had been trembling in fear. The moment the Inferno Dragon saw the Dark Dragon Hound’s actions, it had understood why they were there. The Inferno Dragon would not stomach this. The dragons’ inborn dignity enabled the Inferno Dragon to remain standing.

Su Ping’s command startled it; the dragon jerked its head and turned to look at Su Ping. There was a troubled expression in the Inferno Dragon’s eyes, a never seen before situation.

The Inferno Dragon stared at him.

It was asking with its eyes, “Do I have to go?”

Su Ping replied with a look of his own. “Yes, you do.”

The Inferno Dragon’s eyes looked as if saying, “Can you send someone else?”

“No” was the answer conveyed by Su Ping’s eyes.

The Inferno Dragon wanted to stall for a bit longer but Su Ping had begun to force it with the power of the contract.

The command that appeared on its mind made the Inferno Dragon shake. It couldn’t waste another second. The pet darted a look to the burnt Dark Dragon Hound, which filled it with immense fear; it eventually worked up the courage, roared, and dashed toward the lightning like crazy.

Roar!!!

The dragon’s roar echoed throughout the mountain.

There was a sorrowful tinge in that roar. The Inferno Dragon threw itself at the lightning with its back against the wall.

Scared by the sudden dragon’s roar behind him, the middle-aged man almost dropped the Shield of Ares. He looked from the corner of his eye, only to see a dragon wearing a twisted expression.

No good.

What’s the deal with the dragon?!

When the Inferno Dragon entered the thundercloud’s range of influence, the phenomenon suddenly began to boil again, as if a fire had been thrown into the cloud.

This time, the range of the thundercloud increased to over thirty thousand meters and eventually stopped at about thirty-five thousand meters!

Along with the thunderbolt’s growth, the bolts of lightning also became thicker.

The Inferno Dragon charged toward the lightning head-on. The next second, the Inferno Dragon was struck; its scales cracked and fell.

The pain made the Inferno Dragon grimace. The dragon’s roar became even louder. The second bolt of lightning boiled its blood, which was oozing out all over by this point.

Then came the third bolt of lightning.

This time, the inferno Dragon cracked, it was completely soaked with blood. It was even hard to tell whether it was a dragon or not.

Following that was the fourth bolt of lightning. The Inferno Dragon was falling like a meteorite, soaked by blood. The Inferno Dragon smashed into the mountain and the ground caved in. “That scale...”

The God Warrior stood aghast. He didn’t know that the dragon was more powerful and had greater potential than the Dark Dragon Hound.

The Dark Dragon Hound had only endured two bolts of lightning whereas the dragon had sustained four!

That was twice as many! Of course, part of the reason was that the dragons were innately stronger than Dark Dragon Hounds. They weren’t of the same species.

Besides, neither of the two pets was using any defense skills. Otherwise, they would have lasted longer.

Right when the Inferno Dragon crashed against the ground, the Dark Dragon Hound was just coming back to life and Su Ping ordered it to try again.

Joanna looked away from the thirty-five thousand meter thundercloud and said to Su Ping, “Your dragon has a very good aptitude, even when compared to a Celestial God.”

Su Ping was baffled. “How can you tell?”

“Usually, the scale of the thunderclouds triggered by the very best candidates for the legendary rank is something like this,” Joanna replied. Su Ping finally understood. “How large was the thundercloud when you took your test?” Su Ping asked in curiosity.

Joanna raised her eyebrows and darted him a casual look. “Just fifty thousand meters. That’s all.” She remained composed.

Su Ping was taken aback by that.

Fifty thousand meters? ‘Just’? That’s all?

What a show-off!

“Huh, you don’t say.”

Su Ping gave a hollow laugh. An idea crossed his mind: he wondered how large the thundercloud would be if he had gone up there.
