REBORN OF THE LEGENDARY BEAST MASTER-Chapter 12 - : Summoned by the Grand Elder
Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Summoned by the Grand Elder
Li Jun took a deep breath and stood up. His Lunar Sovereign Wolf remained by his side, its glowing silver eyes scanning the surroundings with heightened awareness. The energy from its successful evolution still lingered in the air, but there was no time to celebrate.
The Grand Elder, Li Mu, had summoned him.
Li Jun knew that the Grand Elder rarely called disciples unless it was something urgent—or highly important.
Without hesitation, he left his quarters, his wolf following closely behind. As he walked through the grand halls of the Li Family estate, he could feel the stares of other disciples. Some looked in awe, sensing the powerful aura of his newly evolved beast. Others, however, had narrowed eyes filled with envy.
One particular figure, Li Ren, stood with his arms crossed, his gaze cold.
"So, the rumors were true," Li Ren muttered as Li Jun passed by. "Your beast actually evolved to Platinum Rank. Interesting."
Li Jun didn't stop walking. He had no time for petty rivalries.
But Li Ren smirked. "I wonder how long your luck will last."
Li Jun paused for a brief moment, then glanced back. "Luck? Strength has nothing to do with luck. But if you'd like to test that theory, I'm more than willing."
A flicker of irritation crossed Li Ren's face, but before he could reply, an elder disciple interrupted. "Li Jun, don't keep the Grand Elder waiting."
Without another word, Li Jun continued on his way.
The Grand Elder's Presence
Arriving at the Grand Elder's Hall, Li Jun was met with an imposing sight. Li Mu, the strongest elder of the Li Family, sat calmly on a jade throne. His aura was vast and unfathomable, like an ancient mountain that had stood the test of time.

Several other high-ranking elders stood nearby, their expressions serious.
Li Jun stepped forward and bowed. "Grand Elder."
Li Mu studied him carefully, then nodded. "You have done well, Li Jun. Your beast's evolution has not gone unnoticed."
Li Jun remained silent, waiting for the elder to continue.
Li Mu leaned forward slightly. "Do you know why I called you here?"
Li Jun's All-Knowing Eye activated instinctively, scanning the situation. Something important was about to be revealed.
The Grand Elder's next words confirmed his suspicion.
"The Beast Master Tournament is approaching, and I have decided that you will represent the Li Family."
A hush fell over the room.
The Beast Master Tournament—a gathering of the strongest young talents from major factions. A stage where only the best of the best could prove their strength.
Li Jun's eyes flickered with interest. This was an opportunity he couldn't refuse.
Li Mu's gaze sharpened. "I expect you to bring honor to our family."
Li Jun smirked slightly. "Of course."
The tournament would be his next step toward reclaiming his true power.
