Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Silence, an extreme silence. The several Level 4 Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire stood frozen in place, their bodies stiff and completely unresponsive.

Silas, on the other hand, jumped up like an agitated cat, frantically twisting his neck to look in the direction of the voice.

"Who! Who's there?!" Silas shouted.

In the distance, near the pile of stones, the area remained deserted and eerily quiet, as if the voice just now had been an illusion.

Silas widened his eyes, staring intently at the distant stone pile, resembling a child home alone who cautiously peeks out after hearing unusual noises from the kitchen in the middle of the night.

The chaotic rocks, the dry grass, and the intermingled red and blue lights created a strange atmosphere.

Silas couldn't help but inch closer to Dante, swallowing hard as he forced himself to remain calm, but his trembling voice betrayed him.

"Big Fly, you heard that too, right? Someone was speaking." Silas said slowly.

Fear filled his heart, and a single thought consumed his mind: he desperately hoped that what he just heard was all a figment of his imagination, that there was no one by the stone pile!

Otherwise, it would mean that someone had already reached ahead of them and disrupted the two places they could use to rest and recover!

If that were the case, he would be finished!

"Your Highness, I didn't quite catch that. There shouldn't be anyone who could reach here before us and disrupt the balance, right?" Dante replied nervously.

Asher stepped forward and analyzed, "There can't be anyone ahead of us. The strongest genius of Genosha, Luna, a Level 5 Beast Master, wouldn't be able to surpass us this quickly!"

Hearing his companion's words, Silas reassured himself that it was probably just his nerves acting up earlier, wanting to win this Eye of Ice and Fire event so badly, that the mental pressure had caused him to hallucinate!

"Ha!" Silas took deep breaths, trying to calm his frayed nerves.

Just as he turned around to slowly comfort himself, a figure slowly emerged from behind the pile of rocks!

In an instant, Dante and Asher's pupils suddenly dilated to the extreme, their mouths agape as they shouted, "Someone! There's really someone here!"

Silas, whose calm demeanor was just restored, exploded once more, his mind raced, feeling hot-headed and weak all over, nearly collapsing to the ground!

Fortunately, Dante noticed something was off and reached out to steady him.

With the support, Silas slowly turned around and saw a figure he would never forget for the rest of his life!

"Charles!" Silas shouted through clenched teeth.

His mind was a chaotic whirlwind, like being thrown into a blender, with only one thought racing through: someone actually arrived ahead of them, and it was none other than Charles, who had been ruining his plans!

"That's right, it's me. Why do I get the feeling that seeing me makes you a bit unhappy?" Charles said, gripping the black gold long knife in his right hand, standing atop a large stone, looking down at the Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire.

His tone was filled with amusement, he hadn't intended to reveal himself, but he hadn't expected the Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire to be so swift. By the time he finished disrupting this place of balance, they had already arrived.

The nearby terrain was quite flat, leaving no good hiding spots, only the pile of rubble beside him. If he tried to leave, the people from the Stellar Empire would certainly spot him, so it was better to reveal himself and disrupt their mindset.

Watching Silas, who was nearly falling even with Dante's support, Charles couldn't help but smile slightly, his voice laced with sarcasm as he said:

"You guys are way too slow, I was starting to get a bit bored waiting."

Upon hearing Charles's nonchalant tone, Silas felt darkness closing in, nearly fainting.

Every plan had been perfectly laid out, except for the unexpected arrival of Charles!

Once Charles appeared, all plans were thrown into disarray, whether it was weakening the Genosha Tier 3 and Tier 4 Beast Masters in advance or disrupting the balance to prevent Genosha's Beast Masters from pursuing them.

If it had been anyone else, there would have been no surprises!

Fate was playing cruel tricks on him, making him encounter a monster like Charles!

"You, how did you get ahead of us? It's impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Silas exclaimed through gritted teeth, his eyes reddening with rage

He couldn't accept this at all. In the Eye of Ice and Fire, the alternating energies of ice and fire surged into the Beast Master's body, and only the balanced energy of ice and fire could be used for resting and recovery.

Could it be that Charles hadn't stopped at all along the way?

That seemed even more impossible!

Having just asked the question, Silas didn't wait for Charles to respond. He looked up and shouted at the four Tier 8 Beast Masters in the air:

"I report! Charles must be cheating, this is unfair! This is unethical behavior!"

Upon hearing this, the Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire surrounding Silas were suddenly enlightened. Their thoughts mirrored his: Charles must have cheated, using some forbidden means, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to arrive ahead of them!

The Beast Masters from the Stellar Empire shouted loudly: "Yes! This is unfair, his speed is way too fast, it's impossible unless he didn't rest at all, but that's even more unlikely!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Charles is definitely cheating!"

"I demand immediate and severe punishment for Charles, revoke his qualification to enter the Eye of Ice and Fire, and make him withdraw immediately!"

"Lord Zorion, you up there, you must have seen Charles cheating the whole time, right?"

"Yes, Lord Zorion must have seen it too. The reason he didn't say anything earlier is to wait for this moment, making Charles look even more ridiculous!"

Zorion listened to the loud accusations from the Stellar Empire Beast Masters on the ground, pointing fingers at Charles for cheating, and they said he must have seen everything from the sky. Inside, Zorion had a thousand curses ready to burst out!

"Damn it, if I had seen it, I would have said something long ago. You all look so foolish, if you can't compete with Charles, don't slander him for cheating. I can't listen to this anymore!" Zorion thought to himself.

From the very beginning, he had noticed something was off. Charles was simply too extraordinary, too monstrous!

While other Beast Masters spent some time in the Eye of Ice and Fire, absorbing the constantly alternating energies of ice and fire, they were looking for a place of balance to digest, absorb, and recover.

Unexpectedly, Charles didn't need any rest at all, he took advantage of Silas and the others' downtime to take a detour and overtake them!

At that moment, Zorion thought Charles was pushing himself to the limit, resisting the chaotic energies of ice and fire within him. He never expected that when Charles encountered the place of balance, he would destroy it without a second thought.

Zorion looked at Charles with frustration and saw a look of disdain and mockery on his face, as if he were saying that the Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire were truly pathetic.

"Enough! Everyone shut up! I can see clearly from up here whether Charles is cheating or not. Don't embarrass yourselves any further!" Zorion replied from the sky.

Upon hearing this, Silas felt as if he had been struck by lightning, standing frozen in place. His legs felt weak, and he kept repeating:

"How is this possible! How is this possible! Does Charles really not need to rest? No, that can't be!"

"The energy of ice and fire invades the body. If he doesn't seek a place of balance to digest that energy, it will eventually lead to a collapse!"

"Charles must be holding on by a thread! Maybe he's about to break down right now, which is why he's trying to play mind games with me! It has to be that way!"

Silas kept contemplating, feeling that this possibility was more likely. Based on Charles's previous battle performance, his body seemed to be stronger than that of other talented Beast Masters.

Experience more tales on empire

So he could endure a bit longer in the Eye of Ice and Fire.

"I have to admit, you are the strongest opponent I've ever faced. Your strength and intelligence are on par with mine, but unfortunately, I'm just a bit smarter!" Silas straightened his posture, puffed out his chest, and fixed his sharp gaze on Charles.

The light in his eyes returned, filled with confidence and regret as he continued slowly:

"Too bad you didn't realize that my willpower is incredibly strong. I won't be crushed by your mind games. Charles, you underestimate me!"

The nearby Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire didn't quite understand what Silas meant by mind games, but seeing his spirited state, their own morale stabilized.

As for Charles, he listened to Silas's words with a puzzled expression, feeling very confused:

"What is this guy talking about? Is he overthinking it, or does he have a really low tolerance for pressure?"

Silas, however, didn't care about Charles's thoughts. He confidently raised his head and continued to analyze:

"Charles, the energy of ice and fire inside you has surely reached its limit by now. You destroyed the place of balance, so you can't rest, which is why you showed up, trying to use mind games to make us collapse and give up the fight!"

"You're very clever, you anticipated my first reaction would be to question you and seek verification from the Tier 8 Beast Masters."

"All of this was part of your plan! Unfortunately, I am not someone with weak willpower. This time, you are going to lose completely!"

A flash of determination passed through Silas's eyes as he confidently gripped his longbow, the energy of wind continuously gathering.

Soon,

A green feathered arrow left the bowstring, whistling toward Charles!
