novelIs It the End of the Road? Or is There Another Way?
| ← Ch.1152 | Ch.1154 → |
Not a single beast tamer could believe their eyes...
Was it true? Was that object really... ?
It was! Bai Yunfei was... holding the head of their headmaster in his hand!!
The world grew silent at this bombshell of a revelation.
"He killed Lin Xiangtian! And so quickly!!"
The beast tamers weren't the only surprised ones. Even the soulbeasts were shocked at how fast Bai Yunfei had killed the headmaster, even the Blue-eyes White Dragon King.
He had confidence that Bai Yunfei would at the very least be able to endure being inside the Dimensional Phantasm until it spat him back out, but to kill Lin Xiangtian during that short time frame? Bai Yunfei had more to him than he thought!
Killing a Soul Emperor within the Phantasm, what a feat! And it was the headmaster of the Beast Taming School! A Mid-stage Soul Emperor!
It wouldn't be too far of a guess to say the Phantasm would have another early-stage class eight soulbeast puppet in it. Xiao Qi and Bai Yunfei shouldn't have been able to win against a combination like that, but they did!
"How fortunate that they are allies. I shudder to think of if they were our enemies instead..."
It was a dreadful thought even for someone as powerful as the Blue-eyes White Dragon King...
Standing above all else, Bai Yunfei took a moment to look at the object on top of his left shoulder.
Right there stood a small palm-sized animal that glowed with every color of the rainbow.
Upon a closer look, this was a... squirrel?
It looked almost exactly like one. The only difference was the light that it gave off, but that was because it was coming from a ring on its neck—the Beast Taming Ring.
This was the Dimensional Phantasm!!
The Dimensional Phantasm hadn't a form that it could call 'real'. It could have whatever form it wanted, though the reason why it chose a squirrel form was because that was what it 'enjoyed' being before it was turned into a soulbeast puppet.
Having no experience with such a soulbeast, Bai Yunfei was stunned that such a unique and powerful soulbeast could look so adorable. However, he knew now wasn't the time to be thinking such thoughts and stored the Dimensional Phantasm away into the Core World.
Then he was back in his battle-ready mode.
His soulsense spread for several kilometers all around as he tried to understand the situation. There was only one Soul Emperor left from the Beast Taming School!
In other words, the two other Soul Emperors were killed off in the time he was battling Lin Xiangtian!
After a second to ruminate on that thought, Bai Yunfei tossed Lin Xiangtian's head from his right hand to the Beast Taming School's army!
"Whoosh..."
The head flew at extreme speeds before finally slamming down into the ground without anyone to catch it. Who'd possibly think about catching it?!
"Lin Xiangtian is dead!!"
Bai Yunfei barked once everyone had a proper moment to look at the head. His words were spoken with absolute authority, and to the beast tamers, his words stabbed into their hearts with the sharpness of an ice-cold sword.
"As I said before, today the Beast Taming School will be no more!!"
"Boom!!!"
He took off once he finished his declaration. Like a comet, Bai Yunfei flew towards the army of the Beast Taming School and threw the beast tamers into a panic once again!
The rest of Bai Yunfei's army followed after him shortly afterward. Soon, the battlefield was filled with the explosion and screams of the Beast Taming School!
This was a one-sided battle! No one could stop Bai Yunfei and his allies!
One by one, the students of the Beast Taming School were killed off in a variety of ways. Some were even swallowed whole by a soulbeast!
And so the mountains where the Beast Taming School resided flooded with blood. The valleys echoed with the screams of the beast tamers and parts of the terrain were being destroyed chunk by chunk...
In the air where the experts fought, the battle between the Blue-eyes White Dragon King and the Azure Eagle King was coming to a conclusion with the Blue-eyes White Dragon King being at advantage. The Blue-eyes White Dragon King would be able to kill his opponent had he the mind to.
He didn't want though, since he was fighting against a fellow soulbeast. A soulbeast puppet perhaps, but still a soulbeast nonetheless. By this point the Blue-eyes White Dragon King didn't even have to fight at full strength. Since the beast tamer controlling the Azure Eagle King was distracted, the soulbeast puppet was simply following the most basic command of to 'survive'. This meant the Blue-eyes White Dragon King was simply able to fight without having to put his all.
The reason why the beast tamer was distracted? Because he was fighting against the Ancient Crocodile King and Bloodhowl Wolf King!
He was already balking at fighting the Ancient Crocodile King. But now that he was also fighting the Bloodhowl Wolf King—for three minutes no less—he knew his death was for certain!
It was a simple matter to see the despair in his eyes now. That last attack he parried was done only on the skin of his teeth!
He was terrified. Was his school really at the end of its road?
In his despair he looked off to the back peak of the school. There was only one last strand of hope for him.
Then as if to answer his silent pleas, the back peak suddenly exploded with a pillar of icy-blue light!
The despair in his eyes blew away at once—was it finally time?
"Could it be... ?"
"Bzzz..."
The world began to shake beneath everyone's feet.
It wasn't some sort of localized earthquake. The magnitude of this tremor was so massive that it felt like even the heavens were beginning to be affected!
This felt like some kind of ancient beast beneath the earth was finally awaking at long last!
"This aura... did senior Xue succeed?!"
It was with great jubilation that the Soul Emperor cried out to the entire battlefield!
"He did! He has!! Haha!! The world has yet to forget about us! Our school will live on! Hahaha!!"
The Mid-stage Soul Emperor cackled. His emotions were bursting out from his body as he cackled.
Meanwhile, on the other side of him, the Ancient Crocodile King and Bloodhowl Wolf King stood still to look at the pillar of light. The two of them originally planned on killing the beast tamer while he was distracted, but the amount of power coming from the pillar made them take pause and see what was going on.
It felt like the entire battlefield was frozen. Each and every combatant ceased their fighting in favor of staring at the source of power with awe and horror.
The next thing to spread onto the battlefield was fear. It gripped at the hearts of everyone like a physical ailment, but not a single person knew why exactly they felt so much fear!
Frost began to appear on the field, alerting several to them to its presence. Looking back up, they saw several white specks start to float down from the sky.
Soon, the entire sky was filled with snow!
"What... what is that?!"
Several people cried out. A white figure appeared out of nowhere high up in the skies above the back peak!
As if made from ice itself, a pair of wings began to spread out from the figure. It was... a bird made of frost!
