Chapter 290 Who Is More Formidable


    Lance, the Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Group, also waited impatiently for Rocky. He


    stood up and stared at thepetition area where Evan stood waiting confidently. Lance took a deep


    breath as his eyebrows drew closer together. He grew impatient because Rocky was taking too long.


    The audience and onlookers in the tforms felt impatient as they stared at Evan in the middle of the


    When Marin and Isis saw Lance get up from his seat, their hearts jumped up. They knew that if Rocky


    did not show up soon, Marin couldn''t imagine what possible punishment would be imposed against him


    for his absence.


    And then suddenly without warning, as if it read the thoughts of everyone in attendance, a beast of


    shadow emerged and rushed into thepetition area and towards Evan. It pounced at Evan without


    warning with its sharp ws outspread and teeth bared.


    The turn of events shocked everyone present. They did not expect that Evan would be attacked by a


    spirit-manipted beast as he waited for his opponent.


    Evan was also stunned at the sight of a spirit-manipted beast rushing towards him. But a sliver of


    memory yed at Evan and told him that he had seen this beast before. His reflexes quickly jumped


    into y; he immediately ordered his Six-armed Snow Macaque, a spirit-manipted beast of the


    second grade of the three-star level, to fight the iing beast.


    The macaque could fight adeptly with all of its six arms. It was skilled at jumping and it was smart and


    sly at the same time. The greatest advantage that it had was its six arms. Almost anyone could easily


    get overwhelmed by simultaneous attacks from its six arms.


    The two fierce beasts jumped towards each other without hesitation and a fierce battle ensued.


    The audience watched with awe as two powerful beasts fought for dominance against the other. They


    were particrly curious about the beast that jumped into the fight without warning. They watched its


    every movement with admiration and awe. It was hard to tell exactly what its power level was but it


    emitted a powerful aura which was obviously not weaker than the power of the Six-armed Snow


    Macaque. Its body was heavily muscled toned for both power and agility. All of its four limbs were


    thickly boned and powerfully muscled. It conveyed an atmosphere of authority and power as if it was


    the king of all spirit-manipted beasts. It captured the attention and admiration of everyone in the


    battle area without effort.


    "It''s here!" Marin eximed excitedly and happily. She recognized the ferocious beast as Rocky''s war


    beast, Uriah.


    Isis sitting next to Marin understood that Marin referred to Rocky''s war beast. And with this statement,


    she felt confused. "Is that his spirit-manipted beast? No, it can''t be. I saw his spirit-manipted


    beast. It was not this one." She once saw her maid Sue ying with a spirit-manipted beast at her


    residence. Sue told her that it was Rocky''s spirit-manipted beast, and it waspletely different


    from the one fighting in the arena right now.


    "Yes, it is his spirit-manipted beast. I can''t be wrong," Marin replied confidently as she turned to Isis


    with a slight smile. She was surprised at the confused look that Isis had on her face. She knew that her


    cousin had a great memory and seldom made mistakes when recalling things like that. "Is there


    something wrong?" Marin asked her.


    "Oh, nothing. I probably just misunderstood something," Isis replied back. And yet she still looked


    confused. She thought that she probably did not pay attention enough to the beast that Sue was


    ying with. But she shouldn''t bepletely wrong. Even at the worst possible case of


    inattentiveness, the beast in the arena should at least look remotely familiar to her. But the beast that


    fought Evan''s beast was something that she had never seen before and she was sure of it. She


    decided to simply put aside her confusion and paid more attention to the fierce fight that unfolded


    before her.


    "But where is Rocky?" Marin asked. She and Isis looked at each other puzzled. If his war beast was


    here and fighting, he shouldn''t be far from the area.


    Lance heard the conversation between the twodies. He was also confused that Rocky was still


    nowhere to be seen. But he soon reverted back to his usualposure and trained his eyes on Uriah.


    "I have never seen a spirit-manipted beast like that before. It looks like a dragon but its body


    structure ispletely different from a dragon''s. Is it apletely new species of spirit-manipted


    beast?" Lance whispered to himself. Even with the years of experience in dealing with spirit-


    manipted beasts, he was still unable to identify the type of beast that Uriah was. He felt both


    astonished and frustrated.


    But Lance was not the only one who puzzled over Uriah. Even its master Rocky who had intensively


    studied the Beast Encyclopedia couldn''t identify what type of beast it was. And this was because the


    Beast Encyclopedia did not have any information on Uriah''s species. It was convinced that Uriah could


    be a particrly rare type of beast. Moreover, it had a high possibility of being a spiritual beast.


    In truth, even Rocky was not sure if Uriah was a spiritual beast or not. Not only could it produce


    magical saliva, but it also had the special abilities of spiritual beasts. The star rating of spiritual beasts


    could be improved indefinitely. Thus the only way to truly determine if Uriah was a spiritual beast was to


    wait and see if it would improve its current rating to a four-star rating.


    It would be great if Rocky would meet a beast evaluator who could evaluate whether Uriah was a


    spiritual beast or a war beast and tell him which species Uriah belonged to. Unfortunately, such an


    expert was not present in the Crimson Dragon Group.


    Everyone in the crowd watched Uriah fight as if it was a famous celebrity.


    Rocky has yet to show up as Uriah fought the macaque. Everyone watched the fight intently but


    wondered at the same time where Uriah''s master could be.


    Those who knew that it was impossible for the spirit-manipted beast to fight without its master


    nearby were almost sure that Uriah''s master must be somewhere nearby.


    Marin and Isis became more ufortable as the fight went on. They wondered why Rocky decided to


    be absent at the arena and only sent his war beast to fight.


    Lance watched the fight with great interest. He was amazed at Uriah''s performance. His intensive


    battle experience allowed him to see the unique features of Uriah''s aura that other''s cannot detect.


    Uriah attacked fiercely as the macaque evaded left and right. It was nimble enough to avoid Uriah''s


    attacks. Also, it was not a pushover when it came to offense. If anyone was attacked by the macaque''s


    six arms, it could cause serious injury. Yet, Uriah''s agility was not inferior to the macaque''s. It deftly


    avoided all of the macaque''s attacks. And even though the fight had gone on for some time already,


    Uriah had not received a single hit from its opponent.


    Most of the people who watched the fight concluded that there was no way to decisively determine a


    winner within the next few minutes for the twobatants were too evenly matched.


    The spectators were expecting a battle between two spirit maniptors. Somehow, it turned to a battle


    between two spirit-manipted beasts. However, because of the intensity of the fight between the two


    beasts, the people watching could not take their eyes off the twobatants as they eagerly waited to


    see who would turn out the winner.


    Uriah had the advantage when it came to stamina. Because of the magical saliva that it produced,


    Uriah simply recovered its lost stamina with the magical saliva as needed. This made it easy for Uriah


    to maintain its peak stamina. Therefore, on a fight that took a long time to conclude, Uriah had a


    After continuous exchanges of attacks, counterattacks and defenses, the macaque started to show


    signs of fatigue and was slowing down. Keen observers started to see that the battle was slowly turning


    towards Uriah''s favor.


    When Evan saw that his war beast had started to tire out, he wanted to help it but he decided not to.


    He was worried that Rocky would attack once he let down his defense and went out to help his war

    beast. He had fought with Rocky once before and he was well aware that Rocky was truly smart. He


    did not want to be caught off guard by one of Rocky''s traps.


    Unexpectedly out of nowhere, a whistling sound rang throughout the arena. It was a signal that Uriah


    knew too well. And without hesitation, Uriah knew exactly what it had to do. It jumped into the air and


    swooped at the macaque. This forced the macaque backwards into a disadvantageous corner. Right


    after itpleted its maneuver, Uriah''s two fire tails collided and created a huge fireball that shot forth


    towards the macaque in one swift and fluid motion.


    Instantly, the audience was ecstatic and burst into a loud uproar.
