Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Ghost Race with Muscles for Brains!
The group’s footsteps did not stop, and soon they arrived at the core area of the Trial Grounds.
The Soulspring before them was more magnificent than they had imagined—
A pool with a diameter of a hundred meters glowed with a starlit blue radiance, as if it contained the entire sky.
However, at this moment, the edges of the pool were already occupied by a group of the Ghost Race.
The closer one gets to the pool, the more noticeable the enhancement effect on spiritual power, but it also brings increasingly intense illusion attacks.
Only by staying true to oneself within the Illusory Realm can one’s spirit truly be tempered.
Noticing the presence of outsiders, the seated Ghost Race members slowly opened their eyes.
The leading Ghost Race prodigy—Caine, scanned the newcomers, frowning slightly.
But he soon understood, the two Ghost Race blocking the way must have been defeated.
Otherwise, these people wouldn’t have appeared here!
When his gaze landed on Veridia, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Onyx-Horned Ghost Race?
Isn’t this the very exile who was personally cast out by his father years ago?
Caine slowly stood up, and the surrounding Ghost Race members, as if receiving a signal, stood up simultaneously.
He led his people to approach Aster Grant, not even sparing a glance at the human, but stared fixedly at Veridia:
"You defeated the guards of my race, your strength..."
He raised his head slightly, and there was an aloof approval in his tone:
"You have earned my recognition."
Caine casually glanced at Aster Grant, his tone indifferent:
"If you dissolve your contract with this human, I can report to my father to let you and your sister return to the Ghost Race."
His lips curled into an amused smile.
Defeating those two Ghost Race guards implies this exile’s strength is nearing the top five level among the young Ghost Race.
"Moreover..."
Caine’s gaze wandered unscrupulously over Veridia, "I can make an exception, allowing you to serve me."
Though only with a single horn, her cold, stunning face indeed captivated him.
The surrounding Ghost Race immediately chimed in:
"Young Master Caine shows great mercy, why don’t you quickly agree?"
"What future do you have with a human?"
"Didn’t you come to make up for your spiritual power deficiency? Agree to Young Master Caine, and you can train with us in the Soulspring!"
"Otherwise... you should be aware of the consequences of trespassing here!"
Caine was also satisfied to see his tribesmen being so supportive, nodding in approval.
However.
Upon hearing her sister being insulted like this, Scarlett was the first who couldn’t sit still.
"What do you think you are, worthy of my sister? I scoff at you, truly shameless!"
She revealed herself directly from The Void.
At this moment, she didn’t even care about the risk of being caught by Vera, pointing at Caine’s nose and cursing.
Yet when Caine saw Scarlett appear, his pupils constricted.
It must be known that his control over Void Power was also among the top echelon of young Ghost Race.
Yet he hadn’t felt Scarlett’s presence at all just now.
Which meant this Ghost Race controlled the Void even better than he did!
Another genius!
He raised his hand to stop his agitated tribesmen behind him, eyes blazing as he stared at Scarlett:
"Besides your sister, you can also serve me, with the same treatment... as hers!"
When Aster Grant saw this Ghost Race daringly target Scarlett, he quietly gave a thumbs up.
Scarlett is Veridia’s reverse scale.
Forget about others...
If he even thought of harming Scarlett, Veridia would probably stop at nothing to strike at him.
And this Ghost Race had accurately hit Veridia’s sore spot...
Aster Grant could only wish him luck!
Just as Aster Grant anticipated, Veridia’s eyes had turned completely cold.
Earlier, when Caine spoke insolently to her, she felt nothing.
But daring to target Scarlett...
At this moment, Caine still didn’t realize anything was wrong, watching Veridia and Scarlett, growing more excited.
"You two sisters, following me, will definitely enjoy the best treatment within the tribe!"
The Ghost Race lives by body refinement, apart from Veridia and Scarlett, these two anomalies...
The other female Ghost Race...
Broad shoulders and thick waists, sturdy builds, that’s all common.
Now that he finally encountered two Ghost Race females who were pleasing to the eyes, how could he easily let go?!
"How about it, I will treat you well!"
However.
Faster than Veridia’s response.
Were the ghost patterns crawling like living creatures across her cheeks.
"Boom——"
Violent ghost qi erupted like a tsunami.
Feeling this surge of violent aura, aside from Caine, the other Ghost Race members all turned pale.
This power...
Had already completely crushed them!
And Caine also got serious at this time!
This aura...
Very impressive!
But...
The Ghost Race doesn’t rely solely on ghost qi to win!
"Boom——!"
The same ghost patterns, the same Ghost King’s Body.
"Woman, you have successfully piqued my interest!"
"Since you refuse my proposal, I will fight until you agree!"
Seeing this Ghost Race still boasting.
Aster Grant was somewhat speechless.
If he couldn’t see this Ghost Race’s various attributes, he would’ve genuinely thought this Ghost Race was fearsomely strong.

And as for Veridia at this moment...

Solely focusing on the strength attribute, the Ghost Race’s forte.
Caine was more than 2000 points behind Veridia.
Not to mention the gap in constitution and speed attributes.
Apart from that...
After Veridia uses Mountain Opening and Sea Breaker, her strength magnifies to a terrifying extent.
Aster Grant glanced at the thoroughly enraged Veridia, then at the self-assured Caine.
He shook his head and cast a look of pity at Caine.
But Caine couldn’t understand what Aster Grant’s gaze meant.
He thought Aster Grant was begging him for mercy, thus becoming more arrogant:
"Human! Now you’re scared, right? Hurry up and dissolve the contract!"
"Or I’ll break your legs!"
Aster Grant didn’t even bother to respond to these words.
Having interacted with Scarlett and Veridia, he didn’t think Ghost Race beings were particularly dull-witted.
Only after meeting Caine did he realize...
The Ghost Race indeed has muscles growing in their brains!
"Veridia, just leave him a breath!"
Aster Grant left a remark and turned to walk towards the Soulspring.
Originally, he planned to let the Ghost Race go, but now...
He decided to subdue this group of Ghost Race thoroughly and then extort that Monarch Level Ghost King for a bit!
After all, it was the Ghost Race who sought them out, it had nothing to do with him!
"As you command, Master!"
With a terse response, the ghost qi around Veridia surged once again!
Ghost Race First Technique: Mountain Opening!
