Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Chapter 839 The Dean's Dilemma

Zachary was surprised by the power of the spiritual beast too, but the purple energy released by the beast was inexplicably familiar. The energy of the spiritual beast had something in common with his cultivation method—both could reversely absorb the opponent's power and make their own power stronger. It seemed to him that it was not mere coincidence or luck that had led to him being able to hatch the spiritual beast egg; it was his destiny.

But not everyone felt positive about this destiny playing out. Barnes' eyes turned cold when he saw how so many of the Imperial Level warriors of Crane College had been taken down by a newly hatched monster. He nodded to the Sage Level warriors at the primary stage by his side and bellowed, "Let's go! We cannot let this monster go on a rampage here!"

So, they flew down from the high platform and approached the purple-winged spiritual beast, intending to capture it.

At the same time, a purple shadow swiftly flew down from the high platform and landed by the side of the spiritual beast before Barnes could reach it. "It's my treasure beast now. Please stay away from what is mine!"

Zachary warned, stopping them from approaching the beast any further.

Barnes and his men had to land in front of him.

"That's a monster of unknown origin, not a treasure beast! Get out of my way!" Barnes pointed at the spiritual beast and shouted.

"Unknown origin? Whatever do you mean? This was hatched from the egg which Crane College, till today, considered to be a rare and precious treasure—a valuable rare treasure beast egg which the previous dean had found twenty years ago. So, how did the origin of this beast become unknown all of a sudden?" Zachary snorted.

"That doesn't matter now. This is an ominous monster and its power is too evil. Therefore, no matter what you say, it must be kept at the disposal of our college," Barnes insisted. Of course, he had other intentions. The beast looked extremely powerful and extraordinarily special. He didn't want to let Zachary have it.

"The dean hasn't said anything yet. Why are you so anxious about it?" Zachary shifted his gaze to Silas.

Silas watched the events unfold silent

e was not completely sure that it would listen to him in the current situation. However, if he refused to prove his complete control over it, the college would definitely take it back by force. He could take the spiritual beast into the system, but if he did so, it would be tantamount to offending Crane College, which would do him no good. After all, he still had to enter the Beast Tamer Space of Crane College to look for clues about the Fighting Crane. So, offending the college was by no means a good idea.

"Fine, I will prove it to you." He nodded in the end.

"Barnes, please," Silas said, turning to him.

Barnes' face darkened. After glaring angrily at Zachary, he said, "Let's begin!"

"Mimi, can I use the mutual communication system to speak to this spiritual beast?" Zachary asked, hoping for some assistance.

"Not yet. You hatched the spiritual beast on your own and it hasn't been registered into the treasure beast system yet, so it is not under the jurisdiction of the system now," Mimi replied.

"What sore luck!" Zachary shook his head and looked at the purple-winged spiritual beast by his side, who seemed completely puzzled. Then he said to the beast, "From now on, I'm your master. You must obey my orders. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to fight back."

The spiritual beast turned to Zachary, as if it was listening to his voice. But after a moment, it made faces at him, as if rejecting him as its master.
