Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

"Woah! That is a rare treasure beast! How did Alloys even get this one?"

"If I'm not wrong, that is the Black Ghost Bull. Although it's a treasure beast without any element, it's no inferior to any elemental treasure beast because it was born with a very powerful soul."

"Yes, the Black Ghost Bull has the soul, while the Sun-swallowing Beast has the power with two elements. Since both are at the peak of Imperial Level, the two of them should be on par with each other. But in terms of lethality, I think the Black Ghost Bull is stronger."

The audience was once again agitated and excited. No one had expected that Alloys would bring in such a terrible treasure beast. It seemed like he was well prepared this time. But Zachary saw through Alloys' trick.

"This beast couldn't have been summoned by Alloys. With his current strength, he should not be able to control it," Zachary murmured to himself with a cold look on his face while everyone else was still shocked by the appearance of the rare treasure beast. He knew that the Black Ghost Bull was not an ordinary Imperial Level treasure beast. Therefore, it could only be controlled by someone else who was incredibly powerful. He figured that his next opponent was in fact not Alloys, but somebody who was playing dirty from behind Alloys. Even without much thought, he understood that it must have something to do with the Kong Clan's Sage Level warrior at the primary stage.

Although Zachary knew that his opponent was playing foul, he didn't say anything to expose the truth. After all, even though his opponent was a Sage Level warrior, he had nothing to fear.

As soon as the Black Ghost Bull came onto the stage, the fourth battle began.

Since the Black Ghost Bull was born with a soul, it was not affected by the immense aura of the young Sun-swallowing Beast. Moreover, it had a greater momentum than the young Sun-swallowing Beast. Letting out a deafening roar, it rushed towards the Sun-swallowing Beast, breaking the ground where it stomped on its way. The huge ax in its hand cut through the air, instantly creating a bright energy wave.

Aware that its opponent would not be easy to deal with, the young Sun-swallowing Beast immediately retreated a few steps instead of meeting it head-on, and spurted out a fierce flame to avoid the attack.

The Black Ghost Bull's huge ax cut the flame in half;

s looked at one another silently in surprise, but very soon they smiled knowingly. In fact, they also hoped that Zachary would lose, because if he won again, he would enter the top twenty. That would not look good for Crane College. If the news spread wide, the college would become a laughingstock. There were a great number of talented beast tamers in their college, yet a foreign warrior was able to climb all the way to the top twenty. It would be a shame.

Zachary watched as his beast was driven to a corner. 'I didn't expect this bull to be so powerful. Alas, my Sunny is still inexperienced. It seems like I have to train it hard after this, but right now I have no choice but to use another beast soul to assist it, ' he thought to himself. His eyes twinkled, and he immediately ordered Mimi to release the beast soul that he had already integrated into the Sun-swallowing Beast's body.

Previously, Zachary had been given the chance to use three beast souls. He had already used one for the Thunder Dragon Horse, and had planned to keep the remaining two until he entered the top twenty. But now, it was obvious that the young Sun-swallowing Beast could not win against its opponent in terms of beast soul. He had no choice but to use one of the remaining two souls to help his treasure beast.

Almost at that same time, the Black Ghost Bull gathered its soul energy on the huge ax, intending to finish the Sun-swallowing Beast with a fatal blow. After being forced into the corner, the Sun-swallowing Beast could do nothing but activate the thunder shield to defend itself.
