"Beast soul renting function? What's so special about it?" Zachary asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"With this function, you can exchange treasure-hunting coins for beast souls of different levels and merge them with your own treasure beast to obtain power that surpasses your beast's own level for an entire day," Mimi answered.
"Really? What a great function! Why didn't you notify me about it earlier?" Zachary asked, squinting his eyes.
"Because you cannot use this function unless you reach the Sage Level first," Mimi replied.
"Oh, I see. But I'm in critical need of it now. Can I go through it before I make it to the Sage Level?"
Zachary said deliberately. "I have to inquire first,"
Mimi responded. Then she fell silent for a moment.
Not long after, her gentle voice came through again. "Considering the fact that the Blazing Roc broke numerous records of Crane College yesterday, to enable it to set more records, the system would like to make an exception and let you experience the beast soul renting function in advance."
After Mimi finished speaking, three palm-sized shadows of beast souls with different shapes emerged before Zachary. "For you to fully experience the beast soul renting function one step ahead, the system will give you three beast souls of different levels for free. These beast souls have their individual characteristics and capabilities. Once they merge with your treasure beast, their respective powerful strength and abilities will become naturalized to your treasure beast,"
Mimi explained. "Three? So that means that I can use the function three times. Terrific! It could prove beneficial in critical situations." Zachary nodded.
"By the way, how do I utilize the beast souls?" "As long as a single beast soul is merged into your treasure beast's body, it will activate at any time!"
Mimi responded. Zachary gave the three beast souls the once-over and picked the seemingly weakest one, which resembled a green dragon. Then he told Mimi, "Please put the other two away for me for now!"
After giving the order, he set aside the green dragon's beast soul and went to the Peach Blossom Forest.
After arriving at the forest, he summoned the Thunder Dragon Horse to appear in front of him. Then he released the green dragon's beast soul to merge with the Thunder Dragon H
um. Barnes turned his head to look at the middle of the arena after hearing the commotion. He saw a treasure beast enter the coliseum. It had not reached the Imperial Level yet, and a flash of thunder radiance was all over its body, while its opponent had the strength at the third grade of Imperial Level. The massive difference in their strengths was noticeable.
The next instant, the thunder beast darted toward its opponent, as if it was courting death. Its opponent did not hesitate to fight back, emitting an aura several times stronger than the thunder beast, looking like it would tear the thunder beast apart at any time.
In a flash, the two beasts collided, but a minute later, the thunder beast swept past its opponent.
"Ouch!"
The thunder beast's opponent soon broke out intense thunder radiance around its body. The opponent suddenly let out a strange cry like it just got electrocuted and then fell to the ground, twitching in agony. It passed out on the spot.
There was dead silence inside the whole arena as if no one knew what had happened. The crowd wondered why the thunder beast's opponent fell to the ground and passed out, while the thunder beast stood there safe and sound, looking proud as a queen.
Barnes felt something was wrong. He shifted his eyes to Zachary's seat, only to find nobody there. Soon enough, Zachary reappeared on his chair. He raised his head and stared back at Barnes arrogantly. Sparks flew when their eyes met. "Is he provoking me? How dares he?!" A gloomy smile splattered on Barnes' livid face.
