Chapter 183: Chapter 182: The Battle Begins!

The team member was at the Sixth Stage of cultivation, a Skunk demon. It is a rather disliked existence among the Monsters. The most powerful ability of the Skunk demon lies in its flatulence—a gas with an intensely strong nerve-stimulating property. Once smelled, it instantly produces a great stimulating effect on the nerves, and the indescribably foul odor can make opponents feel extremely uncomfortable, inducing all sorts of negative emotions. The more enclosed the space, the greater its potency.This Skunk demon was of the Sixth Stage, and its kind was not well-received in Jiali City. It was able to enter Jiali Academy for studies only because it was a genius of its race, with potential to strive for the Divine Rank in the future, which cost a great deal to get into the academy.

The reason Song Junhou had chosen it was precisely because of the power of its chemical weapon ability. The Skunk demon's farts weren't indiscriminate attacks but could encompass a specific area under its control. Otherwise, Song Junhou certainly wouldn't want it. In actual combat, if used well, the Skunk demon's ability served as a very strong controlling power.

Confronted with the cave, it was naturally the perfect place to utilize its skills.

Before long, a series of angry tiger roars emanated from within the cave.

"Roar roar roar—" Immediately afterward, a gust of wind swept through, and a large area of green light burst out from the cave.

The Winged Tiger was of the Wind attribute and upon smelling the Skunk demon's scent, naturally tried to blow it away with a gust of wind.

The Skunk demon let out a sly chuckle, a flash of green in its eyes, and with an open mouth inhaled, astonishingly drawing back the green air currents blown out by the fierce wind from the cave.

Pretty Girl, upon witnessing this scene, couldn't help but turn her head away. She truly couldn't accept these habits of the Monster race from the bottom of her heart.

A huge blue figure had already charged out of the cave at lightning speed, its mouth letting out an angry roar along with countless wind blades, slicing straight towards the outside.

A Seventh Stage Winged Tiger!

Song Junhou made a beeline for it. He roared up to the sky, his blond hair instantly growing longer, and his body also became more imposing. Intense golden flames rose, carrying the suppressive force of the golden bloodline, charging straight at the Seventh Stage Winged Tiger. Behind him, a colossal golden lion shadow faintly appeared, mirroring his movements, punching out with its fist, and intense golden light exploded instantaneously.

For the past few days, he had been feeling very frustrated inside. Although Pretty Girl had never said anything to him, he understood from her colder attitude that he had offended her. More importantly, he did not know how she had dealt with the crisis brought by Wang Yan. He even thought that the incident that day might have been a test they had arranged together to scrutinize him.

Now, everything was clearly over. She would definitely not look at him the same way again, so he was also holding back anger. Facing the Seventh Stage Winged Tiger, he erupted with all his might.

Under the suppression of the golden bloodline, the blue light on the furiously charging Winged Tiger's body retracted for a moment. Although the bloodline of the Winged Tiger itself was not weak, compared to the golden bloodline, there was still a significant gap. Moreover, in terms of rank, Song Junhou was also one grade higher. In the next instant, intense golden light had already rushed over.

The Winged Tiger only managed to release its Wind Protective Energy in time, and the next moment, it was slammed by the fierce golden color head-on.

With a "bang", the Winged Tiger's massive seven-meter-long body was directly knocked flying, violently crashing into a rock wall, even embedding a few inches, and it let out a pitiful scream as well.

Song Junhou's eyes were entwined with golden light, like a god descending to earth, the intense golden flames becoming even more robust. The hair on the Winged Tiger's body seemed like it was ignited by his golden flames, and under the scorching of the golden light, the Wind Protective Energy was rapidly breaking down.

This is the power of the golden bloodline; each Race's golden bloodline excels in different aspects. The Golden Lion Clan's bloodline power is the Golden Holy Fire, capable of burning both energy and soul, incredibly domineering. Once touched, unless your cultivation base can completely suppress it, it will keep burning until death.

Since the Seventh Stage Winged Tiger didn't know its opponent was a strong practitioner of the golden bloodline, it immediately suffered a big loss from the start, and could now only stimulate its Wind Protective Energy to resist the Golden Holy Fire and prevent it from burning its body, but the consumption of its bloodline power was enormous. This was the suppression on the bloodline level.

Just then, accompanied by another roar, a second Winged Tiger also charged out. Without needing Song Junhou to deal with it, the Steel-backed Ape Monster holding a long staff leaped into action, grasping the staff with both hands and chopping down from above.

Song Junhou lunged forward, his fists joining above his head as the intense golden light set the phantom of the Golden Lion behind him ablaze, making it seem tangible. In the next moment, accompanied by a ferocious lion's roar, the massive golden lion shadow descended from the sky, fiercely colliding with the Seventh Stage Winged Tiger that had burrowed into the mountainside.

"Boom!" The Wind Protective Energy shattered, and the Winged Tiger let out a miserable cry, its sturdy body instantly collapsing as blood spurted from its seven orifices. It was clearly not going to survive.

Song Junhou opened his mouth to inhale, and the Golden Holy Fire that had been burning the body of the Seventh Stage Winged Tiger was sucked back into him. The fur of the Winged Tiger was very valuable, and burning it would greatly reduce its worth.

A Seventh Stage Winged Tiger was defeated within two strikes, under his full effort. This, inevitably, made the other teammates cheer loudly.

Elsewhere, the Titan Ape Monster, facing another Seventh Stage Winged Tiger, had also gained the upper hand. With its formidable strength and defense, it was going head-to-head with the Winged Tiger, complemented by the disturbances from the other teammates. Meanwhile, the Skunk Demon had sneaked into the cave.

By the time the second Seventh Stage Winged Tiger outside had been dealt with, the Skunk Demon had already dragged out an unconscious Fifth Stage young tiger from within. The family of Winged Tigers had been completely subdued.

The entire process took only a few minutes to conclude, fully showcasing the formidable combat power of the Beauty and Beast Squad from Jiali Academy. During the fight, Pretty Boy had not even made a move from beginning to end.

"Clean up the battlefield, get ready to withdraw." Song Junhou, having finished off two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers in rapid succession, had vented his frustrations thoroughly, dispelling the suffocation he had felt the past couple of days and feeling a sweep of triumph. At this moment, he felt elated; even if Pretty Girl's impression of him worsened, how would that matter? Wasn't he also a member of the Golden Family, and how could she, a half-blood, ever compare to him?

The three Winged Tigers were quickly tidied up and placed into a Storage Pouch.

According to the plan, they were now ready to retreat from the Winged Tiger Habitat, adjust, and then make further plans.

But just then, from the skies above, suddenly came a loud and clear chirp. A gust of wind also plummeted from the heavens.

"Roar--" An angry roar followed suit.

In the sky, a golden light flashed, and a dazzling golden silhouette flashed by with incredible speed.

Then, right behind it, two streaks of green light pursued in chase.

These were clearly flying creatures sprinting with all their might.

To maximize speed, flying creatures need a process of acceleration, constantly speeding up until they reach their maximum potential.

The golden light in front caught them off guard; one could barely make out it was a large golden bird, while the two streaks of green light catching up also weren't slow. But for some reason, just as they were about to fly over the Beauty and Beast Squad, they suddenly paused.

The momentary pause seemed to cause them to lose balance, and just like that, they plummeted from the air, crashing directly into the forest beside the Beauty and Beast Squad. Sёarch* The NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Be careful, prepare for battle. Formation!" Song Junhou bellowed, and the others circled around instantly, maintaining their combat formation.

Pretty Girl was still at the center, with the Shadow Sparrow Monster skirting the perimeter. In the front were Song Junhou and the Steel-backed Ape Monster, while the Skunk Demon lay in hiding to the side. The Seventh-rank Cat Demon and Bear Demon were positioned on either side of Pretty Girl.
