Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

The Beast Valley was alive with the sound of battle.

Marvin and Katrina gathered with other senior leaders and disciples in the square of the Shura College. Together, they paid close attention to the news.

About four hours later, the group gasped in shock from the news that came out. It was announced that Queenie had subdued a scarce Imperial Level treasure beast with the ice element in the Beast Valley.

This was bad news for Shura College. Queenie was the most outstanding disciple of the Celestial College and she was nearly at the Imperial Level. She had remarkable strength, and defeating an Imperial Level treasure beast with the ice element just made her even more difficult to beat.

Joan, who was being groomed to compete with her, definitely fell behind. The senior leaders of the Shura College were definitely displeased by the news.

"Katrina, it seems like the disciples of the Celestial College are all quite good at defeating beasts. Last time, Harley tamed the Hundred-Treasure Beast. This time, Queenie subdued a scarce Imperial Level treasure beast with the ice element. I'm sure they won't stop here," Marvin said to Katrina. He was starting to feel defeated. He knew that their disciples were nowhere nearly as competent as Zachary and Queenie.

If he knew that it was Zachary who tamed the treasure beast for Queenie, he would have more surprised.

"In defeating a beast, one does not simply need strength. You also need luck. They are not masters. They are beginners who got lucky. In comparison, the Crane College works hard to cultivate talents

had formed an alliance and, once they cooperated, no disciple stood a chance against them.

The contest rules observed that if candidates stood within the area where an alliance was permitted, it meant they were cooperating.

More disciples rushed over and stared in awe of the sight. They did not dare to approach the three. They knew that as soon as they entered the area, they would be as good as dead. The only chance they had was that they all joined hands together.

However, only four places remained and there were still thirteen disciples left. They had to fight with each other and, even if they joined hands, it wasn't sure that they were a good match. They would not risk losing both the contest and against the three. Everyone waited for someone to step up and fight them.

Goliath, Truman and Anthony stood as they waited for anyone to challenge them. Suddenly, three figures with imposing auras appeared in the area, looking directly at the three.

The rest of the disciples gasped in surprise, but they also saw a glimmer of hope.
