Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Truman and Anthony were watching Goliath's encounter with the Hundred-Treasure Beast, the strongest among Zachary's treasure beasts. For a moment, they both were slightly relieved. Zachary's other two treasure beasts, the Blazing Roc and the Thunder Dragon Horse, were at the King Level and the Heaven Level respectively, whose strength were obviously weaker than their two treasure beasts. Hence they were relieved to realize that their treasure beasts were enough to deal with Zachary's. More importantly, they got the opportunity to deal with Zachary together. It was a two-to-one combat. There was no way they would miss such a golden opportunity!

Truman's and Anthony's treasure beasts battled violently with the Blazing Roc and the Thunder Dragon Horse.

At the same time, they approached Zachary. Their intention was to combine their strengths and ambush him.

Suddenly, a circle of ice formed around Zachary. Its chilly cold power was as strong as Queenie's martial energy. His entire body was surrounded by a swirling thick icy fog, pulsating menacingly to create a storm.

"Martial energy of the ice element? How is this even possible?" Everyone was shocked to witness Zachary's sudden display of martial energy of the ice element.

The martial energy of the ice element was acquired from the martial energy of the water element. Both its attack and defensive techniques were very powerful. Anyone using this kind of martial energy possessed remarkable efficacy. However, only those who had a special constitution could cultivate the martial energy of the ice element. That was the reason for very few warriors throughout the entire Supernal Continent to acquire this kind of martial energy.

"I can't believe that there are two King Level disciples, who could cultivate the martial energy of the ice element from the Celestial College!" Marvin commented, with obvious envy in his tone. His current emotion was mainly because of the fact that not a single King Level disciple in the whole Shura College possessed this special martial energy.

Katrina was also taken aback by this astonishing feat. She stared at Zachary in amazement.

The sudden release of Zachary's martial energy caused Truman and Anthony to feel suspicious. They strongly felt that all this while Zachary was merely playing around with them. When in fact he was preparing a trap for them and they walked into it.

H

ivated the martial energy of a special element, their power was too weak before Zachary.

Of course, they didn't know that Zachary's martial energy of the ice element was released by the beast soul of the Imperial Level treasure beast, the Ice Liger. How could Truman and Anthony resist such strong power? In fact, even some ordinary warriors of Imperial Level might not be able to withstand such strong power of the ice element.

Therefore, it was obvious that they were defeated by Zachary so effortlessly.

"Alright! I admit defeat!" Truman hesitated for a moment, before finally giving in. He knew there was no way to surpass Zachary's strength. And if he continued to behave stupidly and refuse to face the reality, he would only suffer further more.

When the audience heard Truman admitting defeat, they let out an uproar. Since Truman chose to admit defeat, Anthony would be left with no choice, but to follow suit.

As expected, Anthony glared back at Truman furiously. He didn't expect him to give up so easily.

As soon as Truman admitted defeat, Zachary waved his hand. The ice around his body instantly dissipated, and Truman finally returned back to normal. He retreated from the area silently, with his head bowed down.

Zachary glanced at Anthony but did not say anything further to persuade him. He just turned around and went straight towards Goliath. He was done dealing with other opponents. Now was the time to face his fiercest opponent. Although it was much earlier than expected, it would be better to end the battle as soon as possible, before situation turned awry.
