The Grayhide Wolf is merely a level 6 ferocious beast. As long as a Beast Master can contract a mystical beast and isn't completely incompetent, they should be able to kill it.However, the current situation is that, in this illusion, Charles is just a high school student studying Beast Mastery.
Not only has he failed to contract a mystical beast, but his physical abilities are also quite average, similar to those of an ordinary person.
"An ordinary person would definitely choose to protect themselves first and turn to flee. If it were me, I would probably be able to save that little girl, but as for the others, they would just have to leave their fate to chance," said General Mason of Genosha slowly.
Even he, a seasoned warrior, only felt confident about saving the little girl, and it wasn't a guarantee that he would succeed!
Mason's words immediately sparked a discussion among those nearby.
Emperor Miles of Genosha sighed and said seriously, "Even you, General, can only save one little girl. Let alone Charles, he's only eighteen and surely can't match your abilities."
Once those words were spoken, many people nodded in agreement.
Hale quietly turned to Jamie beside him and slowly asked, "Dean, how much do you think you could achieve?"
As an level 8 Beast Master, Jamie thought carefully before responding,
"I could save that little girl and then attempt to help Catherine. It's just an attempt, and I don't have much confidence."
Upon hearing this response, Hale fell silent. General Mason of Genosha and level 8 Beast Master Jamie could only reach this level of capability.
What about Charles?
Could he possibly do better than these individuals?
In the next moment,
something unexpected happened that caught everyone off guard.
Charles took a deep breath and slowly walked toward the little girl, stopping in the middle of the sky bridge.
This action left many people puzzled.
Some asked in confusion, "Why has Charles stopped in the middle? Is he too scared to run away?"
"That shouldn't be the case, right? He could have turned and left when the ferocious beast behind him hadn't arrived yet. What is he doing now?"
"Could it be that he's frozen in fear and doesn't know how to face the situation?"
"Charles is still a genius, there's no way he would do that. Perhaps he has another plan!"
"What other plan could there be? Given the current situation, I don't believe he has any perfect solution!"
Only Jamie, Miles, and level 9 Beast Master Lucas seemed to sense Charles's intentions, their expressions were filled with disbelief.
The usually composed Emperor Miles of Genosha spoke quickly, his tone filled with shock.
"Charles's position seems a bit strange, it looks like he's waiting for the right moment. Could it be...?"
Before Miles could finish his sentence, Mason clenched his fists, his body tensing up.
As the general of Genosha, he thought he had considered all possible scenarios and found no way to completely resolve the predicament in the illusion.
Unexpectedly, Charles's actions revealed to him that there might be another way, albeit the most dangerous one!
"If Charles is really thinking that way, it's too dangerous. While there's a slight chance of success, the risks are incredibly high, and it could easily lead to his death," Mason said, his gaze fixed intently on the screen in the air.
Some who overheard the conversation between the emperor and Mason were puzzled and bravely asked, "Your Majesty, does Charles's action have any special significance?"
Miles simply nodded and said, "Charles won't be frozen in fear. You'll see soon enough."
Upon hearing the emperor's response, all the geniuses present shifted their gazes to the screen in the air. In their hearts, they believed Charles could not possibly find a perfect solution.
Even if Charles had greater talent and strength than they did,
But in the illusion,
Charles was just a high school student in Beast Mastery, and simply being able to protect himself against the suddenly attacking ferocious beast was already quite impressive.
Among the young people, only Finn kept observing Charles's position and the situation below the sky bridge, his gaze gradually sharpened as he seemed to grasp Charles's intentions.
Finn muttered to himself, "You can't possibly be thinking of saving everyone, can you, Charles? Do you really think you can do it?"
Finn took a deep breath, not daring to make a sound, and stared intently at Charles on the screen, wanting to see what would happen next.
Soon,
in the illusion, on the sky bridge,
two Grayhide Wolves slowly approached Charles's position.
Faced with the children who obstructed their attack, the ferocious beasts, devoid of morality and law, mercilessly drove their sharp claws into the small, weak bodies.
Instantly, a scene of gruesome slaughter unfolded,
with cries and howls accompanying the sound of blood gushing forth, resembling a hell on earth.
Charles held the little girl's hand tightly, taking deep breaths.
His abilities were limited, he couldn't help that many people.
In the face of danger, it was already difficult to protect those close to him.
Let alone helping others,
between strangers and those he knew, Charles unhesitatingly chose the familiar.
He was not a god, he was just a high school student in Beast Mastery.
As Charles watched the scene unfolding before him, his mind raced, calculating every possibility.
"After I leave, you need to get off the sky bridge and run to where there are more people, okay?" Charles said to the little girl, who was frozen in shock and trembling. S~eaʀᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
The little girl had been so terrified by the scene that she was dazed, after Charles repeated it for the third time, she finally nodded, indicating she had heard his instructions.
"Brother Charles, are you going to leave me all alone?" the little girl asked timidly.
Charles didn't answer because there was no time left.
He could see the two Grayhide Wolves leaping towards them.
As the crisis intensified, Charles became increasingly calm, at that moment, his physical state reached an unprecedented peak.
Seizing the opportunity, Charles bent down and pushed the little girl out of the way of the two Grayhide Wolves' attack.
For an ordinary person, reacting to a ferocious beast's assault would be nearly impossible, but for Charles, it was not a particularly difficult task.
He relied not on reflexes but on maintaining a steady and calm mind in the face of danger.
As long as he kept his mind clear, the vast majority of crises could be successfully resolved, this was a talent inherent in humans as advanced animals!
In the next instant,
Charles released the still-dazed little girl and used the railing of the sky bridge to push off with all his might.
His body soared through the air like a hawk spreading its wings, diving toward the two Grayhide Wolves that had yet to recover from their missed attack!
In the blink of an eye, the two Grayhide Wolves, which were very close, were taken down the sky bridge by Charles!
One person and two wolves fell from the sky bridge, hurtling toward the ground.
The scene unfolded too quickly and was too unexpected.
Most of the people at the royal banquet had not anticipated such a result, for these so-called genius youths, such an act was tantamount to suicide!
If they faced a similar situation, they would never act like Charles!
A high school student in Beast Mastery was only slightly stronger than an ordinary person at best.

By directly taking two Grayhide Wolves down from the sky bridge, even if he didn't die, he would lose the ability to move.
At that point, facing the Grayhide Wolves below the bridge, he could only sit tight and wait for death, desperately waiting for the arrival of the Grim Reaper!
"By doing this, Charles has ensured the little girl's safety on the sky bridge, but he's going to be done for himself!"
"Not only that, but the parents below and that girl will also be killed by the Grayhide Wolves."
"Sigh, I thought there would be a perfect solution, but I didn't expect... Look! Charles seems to be okay!" Someone started to speak but quickly pointed at the screen in disbelief, shouting.
They saw Charles slowly getting to his feet, moving his body, looking as if he could still act and seemingly unharmed.
At this moment, the young geniuses present fell completely silent.
Someone opened their mouth, awkwardly asking, "How did Charles manage that? The two Grayhide Wolves beneath him are already motionless, how does he seem fine?"
Finn took a deep breath and began to explain, "In the moment of the fall, Charles used the two Grayhide Wolves to absorb the impact, which is why he wasn't seriously injured."
As soon as he said this, many young geniuses widened their eyes, as if they had heard something unbelievable. A high school student in Beast Mastery could achieve this level?
"Truly impressive, Charles! To remain calm in such a situation is remarkable, if there had been any mistake, his fate would have been exactly the same as those two Grayhide Wolves!"
Finn remarked, feeling that if he faced such a situation, he couldn't possibly have done better than Charles, this was already his limit!
"Even so, there are still two Grayhide Wolves down below, the others are probably going to get bitten to death!" someone immediately said, believing that Charles's choice was not wise.
Even if he temporarily ensured the little girl's safety and his own, he still couldn't help the others.
"No! They won't be harmed, from now on, the Grayhide Wolves will only target Charles!" Finn declared firmly.
"That's impossible! How can you be so sure?" the person continued to question.
Finn replied slowly, "The Grayhide Wolves have a characteristic: once one of their companions is killed, they will instinctively gather together to attack the enemy who killed their comrade!"
"What? Is that really the case? Did Charles know this too?" Zane trembled all over, he had always thought that Charles had given up the struggle and chosen to seek death!
He never expected the outcome to be like this!
