Chapter 375 - 375 The Beast Tamer Tournament

375 The Beast Tamer Tournament

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

On this day, Shen Fei went to school early in the morning because today was the start of the Beast Tamer Tournament.

The Beast Tamer Tournament was held in the northern square of the academy. There were many people gathered there, and many disciples of the Imperial Dragon Academy were gathered there.

Dozens of arenas were built in the square. Hundreds of wooden tables and chairs were placed near each arena for the students to watch.

When Shen Fei arrived at the square, he found that it was already bustling with people. In the middle of the square, there was a huge arena, and it was already surrounded by a dense crowd.

At this moment, a familiar figure walked over.

Xia’er looked at Shen Fei and sneered, “Shen Fei, I didn’t expect you to have the balls to come.”

“Why wouldn’t I?” Shen Fei shrugged and looked at the people beside him. His voice attracted everyone’s attention, and they all looked at him in surprise.

“Is that Shen Fei? How dare he come alone. Does he want to provoke Xia’er?”

Everyone mocked him, and their eyes were filled with ridicule and disdain.

“Shen Fei, I was worried that I couldn’t find an excuse to cripple you today.” Xia’er gave Shen Fei a vicious look.

“Go ahead and try.” Shen Fei indifferently curled his lips.

“Hmph! I hope you can still be as arrogant as you are now!” Xia’er snorted coldly and led the young men and women beside him to the side of the square.

“We’ll see what happens in the arena.” Shen Fei shrugged his shoulders and lazily walked toward the arena.

At this moment, a sonorous voice resounded throughout the square.

“Today is our school’s annual Beast Tamer Tournament. The final winner will have the chance to enter the Scriptures Depository to choose a beast taming manual.

“Students present, please take note that there are still three minutes left before the start of the Beast Tamer Tournament. If you haven’t signed up for the competition by then, you will not be able to participate until next year.”

As soon as the announcer was done, he saw black shadows scuttling out from the school. The figures quickly rushed into the square and stood around the area. The leader was an old man with white hair and a youthful face.

When they saw the old man, respectful shouts immediately sounded from the square, “Director Zhao!”

A loud and vigorous voice full of laughter suddenly said, “Hehe, old man Zhao, why aren’t you sleeping anymore?”

Then, a burly middle-aged man slowly walked over.

“Dean Pang, how can I ‘sleep’ while you’re still alive and kicking?” Dean Zhao greeted him with a smile.

The second person was the Beast Tamer Class teacher, Pang Hai. His face was red and full of energy. It was obvious that he was in a good mood.

“Director Zhao, this year’s Beast Tamer Tournament will allow new students to participate. It seems that the Beast Taming Class will have many more talents.” Pang Hai laughed.

Hearing this, the elderly Dean Zhao immediately beamed with joy and said happily, “Haha, thank you for your praise, Dean Pang.”

Pang Hai nodded with a smile. “Alright, I’ll see to some arrangements first. We’ll talk again after the Beast Tamer Tournament.”

After Pang Hai left, Dean Zhao stopped smiling. He swept his gaze over the square and loudly announced, “Now, Instructor Luo Yi will announce the rules of today’s Beast Tamer Tournament.”

A very young teacher stood on a platform and said, “The first test is to defeat an Overlord-rank demonic beast. Beastmasters should take pride in being able to tame low-level demonic beasts. Once you have contracted a demonic beast, your combat power may be doubled.”

It was a simple task, but it made everyone’s blood boil.

A moment later, a deafening roar suddenly rang out. A terrifying aura erupted, and a huge figure flew up.

A giant red bird seven to eight meters long soared into the sky. This was the Overlord-rank Spirit Flame Bird!

The Spirit Flame Bird spread its wings. The wings blocked out the sky like a massive cloud of fire.

Elder Zhao’s gaze landed on a young man as he spoke in a clear voice, “The first to go up is Xia’er.”

Xia’er was wearing a blue and white striped shirt. He looked handsome and elegant. There were two young men of the same age flanking him, protecting Xia’er as though they feared that he would be injured.

At this moment, Xia’er was extremely arrogant; he felt invincible. He shot Shen Fei a contemptuous look before he walked into the ring, and stood opposite the Spirit Flame Bird.

“Great Tortoise, come out and defeat that bird,” Xia’er ordered.

In the next moment, a huge turtle emerged from under Xia’er ‘feet.

The Great Tortoise was also an Overlord-rank spirit beast. It had a thick turtle shell on its back, and tough armor on its body, giving it an extremely strong defense. It also had wings.

The Great Tortoise walked forward. Although its body was clumsy, it was vigorous.

Boom!

The Great Tortoise landed on the arena, and a strong wind swept out. It raised its head and looked at the Spirit Flame Bird with disdain. It did not take the other party seriously at all. Its method of attack was to use its sharp claws. Although the Spirit Flame Bird was an Overlord-rank spirit beast, it was no match for the Great Tortoise.

The intense battle began.

The Spirit Flame Bird was indeed very strong. It still had the upper hand at first. However, the Great Tortoise became more and more courageous as it fought, continuously launching fierce attacks at the Spirit Flame Bird.

In the end, the Spirit Flame Bird was suppressed by the Great Tortoise. Its body trembled and bled profusely. The Spirit Flame Bird howled furiously and struggled with all its might. Unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, all its struggles were futile.

The Great Tortoise slapped the Spirit Flame Bird off the stage.

As they stared at the Spirit Flame Bird lying on the stage and gasping its last breath, everyone discussed animatedly.

“Gasp! So strong, it actually dealt with an Overlord-rank demonic beast so easily!”

“As expected of Xia’er, ranked 26th on the Imperial Dragon Ranking.”

A moment later, Dean Zhao shouted, “I announce that Xia’er has entered the promotion round.”

As Dean Zhao’s announcement echoed, the square immediately buzzed with chatter.

“He’s too strong!”

“Xia’er is indeed stronger than Li Yan.”

The crowd discussed fervently.

“Xia’er, well done,” Xu Wenbo said proudly.

Xia’er smiled, looking very pleased with himself.

Soon, Elder Zhao announced the next challenger, “The next contestant: Lilian.”

A moment later, a pretty girl walked onto the stage. Shen Fei’s gaze followed her.

This time, Lilian was going to fight against a Blue-scaled Monitor Lizard.

Lilian was wearing a pink dress. It hugged her slender west, her fair arms were bare, and there was a sweet smile on her charming cheeks, which made everyone’s hearts flutter.

Her opponent was a Blue-scaled Monitor Lizard with thick skin and a huge body.

The Blue-scaled Monitor Lizard let out an angry roar. Hearing its roar, many people retreated, afraid that they would be affected.

“Croix Silver Snake, use your ability!” Lilian shouted and shot a ball of jade-green liquid at the lizard.
