Luo Chen's pets leveled up to level three. With the help of the mermaid, their combat power was equal to a level four pet.
Summoned beasts' level could not be higher than their summoner's. However, this was not the case Luo Chen. Although he was only level two, his pets had already reached level three. Perhaps it was because of his spiritual power.
Regardless, level three was still low-level.
If it was not for the restrictions in the summoning tower, his pets' level would have soared. Summoners needed to meditate to increase their strength, and they could only do it for a limited time. On the other hand, summoning beasts increase their levels by eating. Since Luo Chen had a lot of resources, his pets were leveling rapidly.
The creatures on the fourth floor were four levels higher than Luo Chen. However, his pets were level three so it was still easy to get through. Just more time was needed.
The vermilion bird spat out a fireball and almost all the goblins on the fourth floor were wiped out.
Along with his pets, Luo Chen headed to the next floor.
Meanwhile, outside the summoning tower, there was an uproar.
"Look, he has reached the fifth floor."
"What kind of pets is he using?"
"He shouldn't have any problems passing the fifth floor."
Ye Mei Er was not surprised. She knew that Luo Chen had four divine pets, so things would be easy for him.
However, she was not confident that he could pass the seventh floor. Even if he had ten divine pets, it may still be impossible.
Furthermore, the fifth floor might prove to be a challenge for him since the creatures could fly. They were difficult to deal with. The strength of one's opponent was not fixed. If a person was too conceited, they might make a mistake and lose their life.
Back at the summoning tower, the flower goblin was using her vines to weave a huge net so she could intercept the creatures that were in the air.
The creatures were flaming birds. They targeted Luo Chen. It was as if they had some intelligence.
Luo Chen's vermilion bird returned fire. It was not big, so it also managed to dodge the flaming birds' attacks.
'So, these creatures have fire attributes.'
Luo Chen shouted at the mermaid, "Use waves and aim it at the sky."
The mermaid complied. She opened her mouth and spat out huge waves. The fireballs spat out by the flaming birds were extinguished.
As for the flaming birds, they turned into ordinary birds. The waves had put out their fire. One by one, they fell to the ground.
Now, it was easier to deal with them. The four divine pets surrounded the flaming birds and the battle soon ended.
"They're so weak!"
Luo Chen shouted.
Suddenly, a beam of light shot out from above. It hit Luo Chen's summoning scripture and turned it silver. He had successfully upgraded it.
Luo Chen quickly opened the summoning scripture. Two blank pages had appeared. The other summoning bible that he had duplicated was also upgraded.
Outside the summoning tower.
"He had just cleared the fifth floor. Furthermore, he did it in world-record time."
"That's to be expected. He has an emperor-level aptitude after all."
"Look, he's heading to the sixth floor."
"Seriously?"
"Is this a normal procedure?"
Ye Mei Er started to sweat. Even she dared not challenge this level. It was almost impossible.
The sixth floor was filled with humanoid creatures. They were level eight giant rocks with high defense.
Although the white tiger was dealing damage to them, the giant rocks did not suffer any fatal injuries.
Luo Chen waved his summoning staff and a level thirteen fireball appeared. One of the giant rocks was burned to ashes. Its defense was penetrated.
Everything felt easy for Luo Chen.
After eliminating the last giant rock, a beam of light shot out from above again. It enveloped Luo Chen's summoning scripture.
This really shocked Luo Chen.
'Will my summoning scripture be upgraded to gold? I thought this could only be done at the intermediate summoning tower.'
The light dissipated.
Luo Chen's eyes widened. His summoning scripture was still the same as before. He quickly flipped through the book.
The second page of the summoning scripture had turned golden. There were also patterns surrounding the white tiger. It looked rather impressive. Everything else was still the same. Only the white tiger's page had gone through changes.
'There's really not much difference.'
He expected to get a better reward for clearing the sixth floor.
The white tiger seemed pleased, while the other beasts were jealous of it.
Luo Chen took out the second summoning scripture. The same thing had happened.
Suddenly, his pets rushed toward him.
The mermaid was closest to Luo Chen, so she instantly entered the golden page. Now, she also had the same decorations on her page as the white tiger.
"Don't you need my permission to do this?"
Luo Chen checked the original summoning scripture. The mermaid's image and information had disappeared from there.
"Well, let us move forward."
The flower goblin and vermillion bird had dejected expressions on their faces. Luo Chen petted them and they cheered up immediately.
People who were watching outside the tower fell silent. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
The silence only lasted for a short while.
"He had reached the seventh floor."
"That's impossible, right? Even with divine pets, he should be struggling. What did he do to pass the sixth level?"
"I still can't believe what I'm seeing."
Everyone was talking non-stop.
