Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

With the Demonic Emperor Beast's strength, dealing with a treasure beast at the eighth grade of Imperial Level was a piece of cake. In less than thirty minutes, the Demonic Emperor Beast had defeated its opponent and smoothly won its first round.

While the Demonic Emperor Beast had defeated its opponent easily, everyone thought of the battle as a test round. The Kong Clan had sent out warriors at the primary stage of Sage Level to fight Zachary. So, in a way, the challenge was between Zachary and the entire clan rather than just his opponent. Even Alloys had become a puppet with Louis, the Sage Level warrior at the primary stage, controlling the battle.

Having watched the first battle, Louis was lost in thought for a moment. Slowly, his lips curved into a sly smile.

"Alloys, send out the Dragon Elephant," he told Alloys.

"Shouldn't we leave it to deal with the Sun-swallowing Beast? If we send it out to fight the Demonic Emperor Beast now, we'll be at a disadvantage when facing the Sun-swallowing Beast," Alloys said, hesitantly.

Seeing Alloys questioning his decision, Louis cast him a steely glare and scorned, "I'm sorry, are you teaching me how to do my job now? Just do as I tell you!"

Alloys gritted his teeth in anger, but still summoned the Dragon Elephant. It had taken him a lot of work to get this treasure beast. A beast so strong, it was at the peak of its strength at the Imperial Level.

The Dragon Elephant was once one of the top ten rare Imperial Level treasure beasts in Crane College. It had performed very well in the coliseum, defeating many strong treasure beasts at the Imperial Level. It was because of it that the Kong Clan had recruited its master, Alloys. Now he held a prominent position within the clan and was regarded with respect.

As soon as the Dragon Elephant came on the stage, the crowd cheered. All those present were familiar with the Dragon Elephant; it was pretty famous in Crane College. Seeing it in the arena showed them how

un-swallowing Beast," Louis commented with a nod, as if he had expected this. Then he gave Alloys a disdainful look, implying Alloys was one of the said idiots.

Alloys' face grew darker. But there was nothing he could do but remain silent.

"It's lucky that Young Master Nathan is clever and has foresight. Otherwise, the Kong Clan's reputation would have been smeared yet again," Louis continued. "I will be sending out my own treasure beast next. You just need to claim it as yours."

Alloys knew that he wouldn't be able to defeat Zachary in this battle with his own strength. Therefore, if he wanted to wash off the shame he had suffered, he had to rely on Louis to help him. While he didn't relish in being looked down upon by the man, he couldn't deny he had to accept his help.

"Thank you, sir," Alloys said and cupped his hands respectfully. Then he came to summon the beast to fight again.

Louis disappeared, and then appeared again a little later with yet another sinister look on his face.

A giant black-haired beast stood close by. As it stood there like a human, its limbs were as thick as pillars, and held an enormous ax. It had an evil look as it swaggered into the Imperial Coliseum. Its aura didn't belong to a scarce treasure beast, instantly shocking the audience. This was a rare treasure beast!
