In the Rift Valley, Andrew roared like an enraged lion, exuding a terrifying aura. With a mighty roar, his body rapidly expanded.


    In the next moment, he transformed into a massive ck fox.


    The ck fox was engulfed in dark purple mes, and its eyes were as ck as a void, seemingly devouring one''s soul.


    "Kid, you choose to drink a toast but refuse the drink of punishment!"


    Andrew roared.


    The ck fox he had transformed into spewed outrge fireballs. Enzo, sensing the threat from these fireballs, knew that even if he could catch them, he would still suffer severe injuries.


    As expected of the leader of the Snow Fox Territory, Andrew was indeed formidable.


    Enzo thought to himself but had no intention of fleeing. At this moment, he needed a powerful adversary like Andrew to test the results of his recent improvements in strength.


    More importantly, Curtis was not dead yet!


    Avoiding the ck fireball, Enzo retaliated.


    His blood-red wings pped, generatingrge fireballs, while he formed a lightning orb in his hand. Enzo hurled both energy spheres directly.


    The unleashed lightning and mes ravaged everything, causing widespread devastation.


    Andrew sneered, "Tricky tricks! Kid, if you''re only at this level, then die here for me!"


    Andrew made no attempt to resist.


    The two energy spheres struck the massive ck fox''s body, resulting in a violent explosion that shattered rocks on both sides of the canyon. Yet, Andrew emerged unscathed.


    It seemedthat Andrewwasuntouched by the st.


    At this moment, Curtis, who had been hiding behind Andrew, stepped out to deliberately provoke Enzo. "You, a mere insect fit only for a stinking swamp, think you can defeat Commander Andrew? You''re utterly ignorant of your own limitations!


    Commander Andrew is one of the few in Snow Fox Territory who has sessfully cultivated the Diamond Body. Ordinary attacks can''t harm him at all!"


    This made Enzo''s expression change slightly.


    Andrew''s face grew even darker. No one likes their secrets to be revealed. Although Andrew''s sess with the Diamond Body technique was well-known within Snow Fox Territory.


    Enzo was not from there.


    "Curtis, you fool!"


    Andrew cursed in his heart, wishing he could just p Curtis to death with one paw, but Curtis was seriously injured right now, and if he did so, there was a high possibility that Curtis would actually die.


    Thus, Andrew ultimately restrained himself.


    The anger he felt was redirected at Enzo, and his attacks grew even more intense. He unleashed a dense barrage of ck fireballs at Enzo, attacking from all angles.


    This time, Enzo could not escape.


    Curtis eximed excitedly, "Kid, go die! Let''s see how you hide this time


    Dodging was impossible.


    The sheer number of ck fireballs made it impractical to evade without expending even more energy. Enzo activated his Lightning Shield, a cage of silver lightning forming around him.


    The fireballs collided with the shield, producing loud explosions. Enzo felt his body shake, his blood surge backward, and blood trickled from his mouth.


    Even a single attack left him injured.


    Andrew noticed this and taunted, "Kid, do you now understand the gap between us? I hope you learn to follow the rules in your next life."


    With that, Andrew unleashed another massive fireball.


    The massive fireballwas several meters wide, with unsettling ck-purple mes.


    Whoopee~


    At this moment, Enzo let out a strangeugh.


    Wiping the blood from his mouth, he met Andrew''s gaze with a smile. "Commander Andrew, you''re speaking too soon!"


    Enzo drew a long spear with a casual motion.


    This fire spear, seized from Theodore of the Sr Dynasty, greatly enhanced the power of fire elemental energy and was a valuable artifact.


    Curtisughed derisively.


    "Kid, how naive! Do you think a weapon will let you defeat Commander Andrew?"


    Andrew agreed.


    Andrewshookhis head, thinking Enzo was merely clinging to a ridiculous sense of pride.


    So, Andrew decided not to wait.


    A massive ck-purple fireball, radiating an aura of destruction, hurtled toward Enzo, causing the valley to tremble, the ground to crack, and the mountains to copse.


    Enzo, however, thrust the fire spear into the ck-purple fireball .


    Then hebegan to absorb its energy frenziedly.


    As the immense energy flowed into him, Enzo''s aura intensified, seemingly breaking some kind of bnce, and his wings turnedpletely fiery.


    This was the brand-new me Wings.


    The power from the blood element pattern hadtransformed into a blood-red armor, encasing Enzopletely, with exquisitely detailed patterns on its surface.


    This transformation lefts Andrew and Curtis stunned.


    Enzoughedand said, "Commander Andrew, thank you for your gift. It allowed me to bnce the blood and fire elements within me so smoothly and even gain this additional benefit."


    Enzo was genuinely grateful to Andrew.


    The appearance of the me Wings and the blood-red armor was unexpected for him, and both, derived from the element pattern, possess extraordinary power and strength.


    Andrew''s face turnedashen.


    The ck fox he transformed into has its fur bristling, and its dark eyes showedemotion for the first time. Instead of continuing to attack with ck-purple fireballs, he lungeddirectly at Enzo, moving with surprising agility despite his massive size.


    However, Enzo''s speed was equally impressive.


    Particrly with his mastery of the space element pattern, Enzo couldnow perform short-range teleportations duringbat, making it impossible for either side to gain the upper hand.


    "You old fool, is that all you''ve got?"


    Enzo taunts as he evades another attack.


    The massive ck fox roars in fury; Andrew swears this is the first time he has been so enraged.


    A human, forcing him into this state.


    He must be eliminated!


    Andrew chargedthrough the valley, leaping into the air with his mouth open wide, generating a terrifying suction topress Enzo''s evasive options.


    But this leftCurtis unprotected.


    Ignoring Andrew, Enzo rushedtowards Curtis, who, seeing Enzo approaching, cries out in terror, "Commander Andrew, save me!"


    Hearing themotion, Andrew shouts urgently, "Stop!"


    Enzo naturally wouldn''t listen to Andrew. He held a methrower and stood on top of Curtis'' transformed Three Tailed Firefox head, lifting it high. Then he said to Andrew, "Commander Andrew, this time, you can''t save him!"


    Curtis pleaded, "Spare me! I''m willing to apologize and offer you a generouspensation."


    Enzo scoffedand then drovehis spear down with force.


    The long spear pierced directly through Curtis'' head, and mes spewed out, instantly igniting Curtis. Without even making a scream, Curtis died under the mes of the long spear.


    Seeing this, Andrew is filled with rage.


    He yelledat Enzo, "You''re doomed! How dare you kill Curtis and a member of Snow Fox Territory! Enzo, the entire Snow Fox Territory will seek vengeance against you! Your faction and tribe will be wiped out by Snow Fox Territory!"


    Hearing this, Enzo lookedup.


    Enzo lookedup at Andrew''s massive form in the sky, his eyes devoid of emotion, cold and pure blood-red.


    He respondedwith a measured tone, "If anything happens to the Crimson Star Tribe, Snow Fox Territory will be erased. Commander Andrew, you can try to see if you can protect everyone in Snow Fox Territory."


    Thiswas clearly a threat.


    But at this moment, Andrew didnot dare to respond rashly.


    Curtis hadjust died before his eyes, despite Andrew''s earlier assurancesthat Curtis would be safe under his protection.


    Most importantly, Andrewwas certain of one thing—


    Enzo couldindeed carry out his threat.


    At this moment, Andrew feltfear and deep regretted. If he hadn''t antagonized Enzo, Snow Fox Territory could have had a powerful ally through Amy.


    But now, allies hadturned into enemies.


    This was not the oue Andrew desired, but once certain actions weretaken, there wereno chances for a redo.


    Andrew sighed deeply.


    He shifts back to his human form,nds on the ground, and looks at Enzo. After a long pause, he says, "In six months, the supernatural trial will take ce in Elven Homnd, and Princess Amy will participate. Also, if you seek revenge, you cane to me.


    If you target Snow Fox Territory, I will retaliate against the Crimson Star Tribe in kind."


    Upon hearing this, Enzo didnot respond.


    With his massive me Wings pping, Enzo ascendedinto the sky and opens a space portal, leaving the Broken Gorge and returning to Crimson Lake.


    Back at Crimson Lake, he finds that Harvey has not left and is still waiting in the Crimson Lake territory.


    Seeing Enzo return, Harvey rushes over.


    Enzo askedcoldly, "Is there something else?"


    Harvey quickly exined, "Mr. Enzo, regarding the supernatural Trial Crystal at Star Peak, I''m not sure if you''re interested."


    "What do you mean?" Enzo inquiredagain.


    Harvey smiled, "There''s an agreement among the major royal families to send young members topete in a tournament, with the winner obtaining the supernatural Trial Crystal. However, there''s a loophole. There''s no restriction on outside help."


    Enzo immediately understood.


    He lookedat Harvey and said, "So, you want me to participate in the royal family''s tournament?"
