Several powerful figures representing various factions arrive to recruit Su Ping, each showcasing their esteemed Beast Masters and potent dragon-type pets. Leng Ye proposes a friendly showcase, which Zhu Hong, Yun Sheng, and Ray Saint eagerly accept, much to the dismay of Wang Delong, who foresees a chaotic clash that the Dragon Dynasty Club may not survive.

The Dragon Dynasty Club, it must be acknowledged, truly merits the praise bestowed by numerous Spirit Saint Level figures like Master Zhu, standing as a premier establishment.

Su Ping found himself utterly astonished as they journeyed from the helipad towards the Skill Power Testing Hall.

A multitude of varied training venues were present.

Furthermore, specialized facilities and environments catering exclusively to Elemental Pets were also available.

The pervasive elemental energy within the grounds coalesced into discernible energy particles.

Numerous recreational settings solely for Pet Beasts existed here as well, including simulated wild hunting environments previously encountered. This very outdoor hunting locale, now integrated into the club's expansive grounds, is precisely the Secret Realm entrance Su Ping had ardently sought.

A single glance at the Dragon Dynasty Club's extensive property was enough for Su Ping to grasp precisely what his Heart of Myriad Spirits lacked, especially when considering the Imperial Capital as the nexus of the Dragon Nation.

Within a location that could be deemed the apex of clubs, perhaps unparalleled, such as the Dragon Dynasty Club Manor, the sheer caliber of facilities and environmental assets employed is almost certainly world-class.

While Linzhou serves as Jianghai's core, it remains merely a province, and frankly, Su Ping's exposure has been quite limited.

With this realization dawning, Su Ping resolved that he could not depart the Imperial Capital without thoroughly exploring the Dragon Dynasty Club, alongside other breeder training facilities; a comprehensive inspection was imperative!

Now that he is considered a breeder of Hall of Fame caliber, isn't it only right to examine the workplaces of fellow breeders?

This line of thought immediately caused Su Ping to cease his overthinking.

Following Wang Delong, the assembled group eventually reached the Dragon Dynasty Club's dedicated battle arena, specifically designed for testing and sparring.

Within the Heart of Myriad Spirits, the battleground bequeathed by the Heart of Cloud was already quite capacious.

The central area, in particular, was vast enough to facilitate sparring even for Monarch Level Beastmasters, spanning an impressive area of nearly two thousand square meters.

This size was certainly adequate for accommodating battles involving substantial Pet Beasts.

However, confronting the current battle venue, which stretched over two square kilometers indoors—an area comparable to a small neighborhood, all contained within a colossal indoor arena approximately ten stories high by conventional measurement—was a different matter entirely.

And that was merely the arena itself.

Additionally, a massive skill testing device was present, capable of reflecting the energetic impact of Spirit Saint Level Pet Beasts, a clear testament to the immense wealth at play.

Observing Su Ping's evident astonishment, Wang Delong quickly interjected:

"Breeder Su, we humbly request your understanding. Such is the rarity of the 'Mustard Seed Crystal' that we have only slightly expanded the venue. We hope it has not caused offense."

Su Ping's eyes widened. Never one to shy away from inquiry, he directly posed the question:

"Mustard Seed Crystal?"

Zhu Hong, with a chuckle, provided an explanation:

"It is an exceptionally rare resource of the Space Element, found at the Spirit Saint Level. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to emit a peculiar Mustard Seed ray. This ray affects all Beastmasters and Pet Beasts within its vicinity, shrinking them proportionate to their individual Realms.

Beastmasters and Pet Beasts at Monarch Level and below, regardless of their imposing size, can be instantaneously reduced to the size of an ant once exposed to the Mustard Seed ray. Moreover, even the potency of their skills experiences a reduction, a truly formidable effect, though its application is highly regulated. Merely stepping outside the crystal's effective range restores everything to its normal state.

Furthermore, energies originating from outside the crystal cannot influence those affected within its field, nor can internal energies breach its boundary. Consequently, this specialized material finds its application in the most advanced trial and sparring arenas. Even Spirit Saint Level Beastmasters and their Pet Beasts can engage in combat without concern for collateral damage to the environment. In Dragon City, there exists a Mustard Seed Arena constructed using a total of twelve Mustard Seed Crystals."

Su Ping let out a gasp of surprise.

He marveled at the wondrous capabilities of the world's diverse special resources and materials, and equally, at the sheer opulence of Dragon City.

Yet, his thoughts began to drift:

"Could such a specialized sparring arena genuinely accommodate battles between Legendary level Beastmasters and their Pet Beasts?"

Zhu Hong decisively shook his head in response:

"Su Ping, the Spirit Saint Level and the Legendary Level represent vastly different magnitudes of power. Existences at the latter level, unless in instances akin to the ancient conflicts between water and fire that disregarded the energy fields of Heaven and Blue Star,

there exists a preeminent sparring venue! No special resources are required; any individual can access it."

"Oh? Where might that be?"

Su Ping was genuinely unaware of such a location.

Zhu Hong gestured vaguely upwards.

Su Ping tilted his head blankly, his gaze settling on the stark white ceiling.

Moments later, comprehension dawned:

"Space?"

Zhu Hong offered a confirming nod.

Su Ping blinked once more.

He then resolutely ceased his contemplation, directing his full attention forward.

He hadn't even encountered the Mustard Seed Crystal yet, let alone contemplated space itself?

However, Su Ping's mind, as was its habit, began to wander once more.

Could a resource imbued with the Space element, capable of shrinking physical bodies, also be utilized to cultivate a skill that achieves bodily shrinkage?

Certainly, this notion wasn't entirely novel; Su Ping surmised that certain Pet Beasts likely possessed analogous abilities, such as the Paperman's 'Paper Body Compression,' which bore a resemblance.

Could it be that shrinking is the opposite, implying enlargement? Does the body grow larger? Su Ping felt an uncanny sense of familiarity wash over him. It brought to mind a peculiar image: a monkey and a monstrous creature possessing three eyes, its three-edged blade expanding in size with the rising wind.
