Chapter 558: Seventh Gate, the Pig of the Hour of Hai!

Arriving at the seventh floor, he saw a heavyweight man.

Big ears, big nose, big belly—big everywhere, weighing at least two hundred jin, looking just like Maitreya Buddha.

The man was sitting, and in front of him lay a pile of food, all of it meat.

Watching the other person stuff food into his mouth nonstop, Bai Jing couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth!

Is the treatment for this gatekeeper really this good? And with your tonnage, aren't you afraid of dropping dead if you keep eating?

"So you are the Pig of the Hour of Hai!"

"That's right! You've charged through six gates; are you tired? Want to come over and eat something?"

Yo~ the little fatty is quite enthusiastic!

"Great!"

Bai Jing sat down before him without any ceremony, looked at the food, and found it quite abundant.

There was chicken, duck, and beef, but no pork.

"Eat freely; no need to be polite with me!"

"Thank you!"

Bai Jing broke off a chicken leg and started gnawing on it!

"I can understand the lack of pork, but since you're eating chicken and beef, aren't you afraid the Rooster of the Hour of You and the Ox of the Hour of Chou will take offense?"

"Heh~ why fear them? They eat too! Even if they're unhappy, what can they do? They can't beat me!"

Understood; the philosophy upheld by the Twelve Zodiacs is that strength is supreme!

"As for you, you've arrived truly fast; I thought I'd at least finish the food!"

"To be honest, it was the scent of the food that attracted me, which is why I hurried here!"

The Pig of the Hour of Hai laughed heartily, "I love hearing you say that!"

To him, anyone who loves fine food is a good friend!

The Pig of the Hour of Hai brought out beer again, "Come, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"I've noticed that the strength of you Twelve Zodiacs increases step by step, and it follows a clear pattern."

"You're quite observant! That's right, just as you guessed!"

"The first four floors are Elite level, the middle four are Near-Tianwang level; does that mean the last four are all Tianwang level?"

"Yes!"

No wonder most challengers stop at the ninth floor; Tianwang level is not so easily defeated.

The Pig of the Hour of Hai looked at him with amusement, "What? Feeling the pressure?"

"Not exactly; I'm just amazed at the tower's power!"

The Pig of the Hour of Hai laughed heartily, "Don't underestimate us Twelve Zodiacs; you're still a student and don't understand—in the professional circle, our fame is considerable!"

Bai Jing nodded and asked again, "What about their true combat power?"

"Of course, they're not as weak as they appear; the Challenge Tower has regulations. Their true combat power is much higher, with the minimum being Near-Tianwang level..."

The two ate and chatted until the food was completely swept away, only then stopping!

"Alright, we've eaten, we've chatted; now it's time for the real business!"

The Pig of the Hour of Hai struggled to stand up. "Are you ready?"

That should be my question; seeing how hard it is for you to stand, don't collapse after taking two steps!

"Ready!"

The two took their positions on opposite sides of the arena, and the referee entered.

"Please send out your Pokémon!"

"Although we got along well chatting, I won't hold back during the battle!"

"That should be my line! Although I appreciate your hospitality, I won't show you any mercy!"

"Haha... then let's settle this with a decisive battle!"

"Go, Poochyena!"

Bai Jing was utterly embarrassed; given the Pig of the Hour of Hai's tonnage, he had assumed his partner would be Emboar, but instead it was the agile Psychic-type pig!
