BXBX NOVEL Chapter 454 - 448: Attention from Various Parties.
“Roar!”
With a mournful howl, the dense black clouds suddenly split open in the sky, and an Electrified Eagle with a charred body and a faint burnt smell, resembling a cooked creature, fell from the heavens.
It was hard to imagine that an Electrified Eagle, known for its lightning and fire attacks and strong immunity, would be defeated by its own skills.
“Very well, only one left!”
David Jones focused his gaze on the dumbfounded Purple Crystal Ox on the
Battle Platform that was completely out of the fight.
Feeling David’s eyes, the Purple Crystal Ox’s body stiffened slightly.
Watching the blood-soaked Flamewing Lion next to it and the Electrified Eagle oozing meat fragrance and drooling, the Purple Crystal Ox ignored the Trainer’s displeased expression and began to enact its drama skills.
As a King species Beast, the Purple Crystal Ox’s intelligence was comparable to that of humans.
At this moment, it seemed as if the Purple Crystal Ox had been struck by some invisible force, letting out a sharp moo. Then, its legs softened, and it fell to the ground, revealing its fragile belly.
With its two teammates down, it was better to surrender as soon as possible to avoid becoming barbecued beef on the platform.
As for the Trainer’s opinion, the Purple Crystal Ox chose to selectively ignore it.
The Beast Taming Contract does not mean the Trainer has complete control over the Pet; pets have their own small portion of freedom.
Alex Frost, seeing the actions of his pet, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, feeling his dignity greatly hurt. However, he did not think of punishing the Purple Crystal Ox.
After all, this was just a battle, not a training experience for the battlefield; losing when faced with superior strength was not a big deal.
Should Alex try to discipline the Ox, it might act out deliberately, causing trouble and sabotaging in the future.
Not to mention the deepening of Bond Coordination, as controlling the legendary Bond Coordination was unlikely!
Indeed, within Flowery Kingdom, there were very few high-species pets like Rainbow Gluttonous Beasts that completely followed their Trainer’s orders.
Most pets would cause more or less conflicts due to the uneven allocation of Pet Resources by the Trainer.
It was David Jones’s first time seeing such an opportunist pet, though its acting skills were rather terrible.
“Ahem!”
Looking at the ridiculous drama playing out before him, Mason Rodney couldn’t help but clear his throat.
Alexander Kramer directly raised his arm and admitted defeat.
There was no other way; if he dragged it out any longer, his Flamewing Lion would die from blood loss.
Seeing his older brother choose to surrender, Clifford Green and Alex Frost had no choice but to give up as well.
David looked at the remaining four people on the challenger’s seat and said, “Why don’t you all come out together? I don’t mind!
Upon hearing this, Eugene Carnegie, Jackson Grant, Ning Jade, and Douglas Taylor’s faces went black.
You don’t mind, but we do!
It would be alright if they won a four-on-one fight, but if they lost, they’d have neither face nor honor!
After some thought, Douglas Taylor twisted his feathered fan in his hand, clasped his fist towards David and said, “There’s no need for a fight. I admit my defeat.”
Seeing that David Jones had crushed the ninth-ranked Myrtle List’s self-confidence in just two battles, the audience of freshmen immediately stood up, chanting David’s name.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Battle Square erupted with enthusiastic cheers.
“My senior brother is really impressive!”
Richard Goodwin couldn’t help but exclaim as he watched the excited students around him with flushed cheeks.
“How much confidence do you have in facing this once-in-a-thousand-year genius, Bella?”
The sexy and charming Luna Polly looked at the screen displaying the Black Dragon, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
This highly anticipated challenge match not only attracted the attention of Rosewood College, but also the teachers and students of the other Four Prestigious Schools and the Eight Academies.
They all unanimously decided to stop attempting the Buddha Tower challenge tonight and watch the match to see the true worth of the number one from Myrtle College.
In fact, if it were not for Rosewood College hosting and providing the Buddha Tower trials to the many students, as it wouldn’t be good for guests to cause trouble, eager students would have challenged David Jones long ago!
Bella Wanton, with her sword on her waist and her eyes as sharp as a dragon, looked at the Black Dragon with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
“I have about 50% confidence in facing him now, but if this unknown Emperor Dragon advances further within one to two years, I’m afraid no one will be David Jones’ match in the National Beast Master College Championship!” Hearing Bella Wanton’s high appraisal, Luna Polly couldn’t help but feel tense. The outcome of this year’s National Competition with all the geniuses gathered is difficult to predict.
However, according to David Jones’ growth trend, unless the school is willing to invest heavily, he will dominate the National Trainer Competition for the next four years.
By then, Myrtle College will have held the number one spot in the national college rankings for a full four years, which is something all Trainer Colleges will find hard to bear.
As the saying goes, the rankings of the National Beast Master College Championship determine the incline of investment and resources from the Flowery Kingdom Trainer Guild to the participating schools annually.
At the same time, the exchange students from Peony Colledge were also staring blankly at the screen.
“Should we ask the school to intervene in the investigation? Without Grandmaster Hoyle’s help, David Jones would not have been able to contract an Emperor True Dragon.”
A man with chiseled features and a perfect body looked at his own respected school’s top student.
“Matthew Coleman, if I give you a Star-Reduction Elixir, can you tame the Emperor True Dragon?” Rudolf Sherwood asked with burning eyes.
Matthew Coleman frowned in thought and then sighed.
“I don’t think I can.”
It’s not easy for even insiders to tame a majestic creature like an Emperor True Dragon, let alone a regular Overlord True Dragon, without confidence.
The Coleman family, backed by the Peony Sherwood family, holds some of Peony City’s Pet Resources.
Although the Coleman family members cannot easily obtain the highly coveted King-level pets in the eyes of ordinary people, as long as a certain price is paid, they can definitely acquire a beast with enough potential.
With the help of his family, Matthew Coleman once had the opportunity to contract a King-level Dragon, but unfortunately, the proud dragon did not approve of him.
“An Emperor True Dragon! No wonder the Rosewood City Trainer Guild regards David Jones as a legendary seed!”
“If even someone who contracts an Emperor True Dragon, like the number – one-in-a-thousand-years David Jones, cannot breakthrough to Legend, how many geniuses in Flowery Kingdom can?
At this point, deep jealousy flashed in Rudolf Sherwood’s eyes.
Even though he was the direct heir of the Peony Sherwood family, he still did not have the qualifications to contract an Emperor True Dragon.
Why did David Jones, a genius coming from a level III city, receive such an extraordinary opportunity and completely surpass his own reputation as a genius?
Elsewhere, Glazewater College Villa area.
Ablue-skirted woman with a waterfall of black hair and a gentle demeanor was brewing tea while watching the Myrtle List challenge match.
“Senior sister, with David Jones’ current displayed strength, how could he be ranked 15th on the Buddha List?” The gentle and kind-hearted girl looked up and asked.
Jane Pauline, Glazewater College’s top student, furrowed her brows.
“Most likely, it’s because their mentors wanted to temper them, so David Jones did not have any information about the Inheritance Trial.”
