Return Of The Supreme Beast Tamer
Chapter 138: We Won

Chapter 138: We Won

WHOOSH!

The fox vanished once more, leaving a stunned Chloe kneeling on the cracked earth. It reappeared several meters away, hovering in the air, its golden eyes narrowed.

**Fascinating.** It muttered, a hint of intrigued surprise in its voice.

"Fascinating?!" Katherine gritted her teeth, her blue eyes blazing with fury. "You will soon learn what true fascination is!"

With a guttural yell, she unleashed her life force, channeling every ounce of her being into her sword. "Let’s obliterate this monster!!" she hissed, her determination unwavering.

"Yes!"

Leyla raised a slender finger, tapping it lightly against her temple. In the space above her head, a spectral image of her beast, the cobra, shimmered into existence. A palpable surge of power emanated from Leyla, escalating rapidly before the astonished eyes of the girls and the observers from the training ground.

BOOOM!

A shockwave of raw energy, indicative of a low-stage Master level, erupted from her, scattering the dust and sand in a violent vortex, the very air around them shimmering with its intensity.

"Very well, no more holding back!"

Chloe tightened her grip on her sword, her own life force surging, elevating her power to the level of a low-stage Legendary!

’If only my beast were here... I would be so much stronger. Nevertheless, we must persevere,’ she thought resolutely.

"I am the final link," Advika declared, her voice firm.

She closed her eyes, drawing a deep breath. When she opened them, their usual vibrant blue had been replaced by an intense, burning red, like molten embers.

’I can only access a mere five percent of her power, enough to elevate my strength to the peak of the Expert level... Any further, and the control will shatter, unleashing her fully. That must not happen,’ she cautioned herself, her knuckles white as she gripped her sword.

Miles away, concealed within a dense thicket of bushes, four figures watched the unfolding battle.

"Whoa, thank goodness we exercised caution and didn’t engage prematurely... These girls, working together are truly terrifying," Mitchell whispered, his eyes wide with a mixture of awe and apprehension.

"Indeed... And maintain absolute silence. Mike is diligently masking our life force signatures. We must not reveal our presence." Adrian warned, his tone cold and resolute.

Mitchell nodded quickly in understanding.

"Now this is a battle for the ages!" a student exclaimed.

"Absolutely! Let us witness the outcome of this clash of titans," another added, their anticipation palpable.

Monica remained rooted before the screen, the subtle frown on her face deepening.

’What is transpiring? This simulation’s boss should not possess such overwhelming strength. A Mythical stage beast, combat strength Lv7 at most... Not a Divine stage Lv9 behemoth!’ A knot of unease tightened in her chest. ’Something is profoundly amiss.’

"ATTACK!!!"

Chloe’s battle cry echoed across the desolate landscape. The four figures surged forward as one, the ground cracking beneath their synchronized advance.

They converged upon the monstrous fox, their weapons aimed for a simultaneous strike.

BOOOM!

Their combined assault slammed against an invisible barrier, which shattered with a violent explosion, sending the four girls hurtling backward.

**Truly... remarkable. I was unaware Cordelia had fostered such formidable young talents.** The fox spoke, its gaze now fixed on the four who had landed some distance away.

"Cordelia? This is a simulation... How does it know the name of our city?" Chloe asked, her brow furrowed in confusion.

The same question echoed in the minds of every observer, both near and far.

"Who are you?!" Advika demanded, her voice ringing with suspicion.

**Who I am?** The fox raised a clawed hand, clenching it into a fist.

**You may consider me... your ultimate nightmare.**

WHOOSH

It vanished once more, reappearing instantaneously behind Advika, a lightning-fast punch aimed at her spine.

**Of all these humans, you possess the most... disruptive potential!** it snarled.

BAM!!!

The brutal impact connected with the flat of Advika’s sword, the force of the blow sending her flying backward.

"Advika?!" her three companions cried out in unison, their voices laced with alarm.

BAM!

Advika slammed into the ground, a cloud of dust erupting around her. She shook her head groggily, slowly pushing herself back to her feet.

’Let me in, girl... How much longer will you deny me?!’ A chilling voice echoed within Advika’s mind, sending a shiver down her spine.

’Release me... or you will perish.’

’If I do that, you will slaughter everyone!’ Advika countered mentally.

’And what is inherently wrong with that?’ the goddess’s voice retorted, laced with cold indifference.

"..."

Advika gritted her teeth, her gaze hardening as she lifted her head to face the fox.

"You missed!" she challenged, her voice betraying none of the turmoil within.

**Hahahaha!!**

The fox unleashed another surge of its golden life force and lunged forward with terrifying speed.

"Intercept it!!"

The four girls moved as one, their desperate counter-attack colliding with the charging beast in a chaotic flurry of steel and magic. A brutal, no-holds-barred battle for survival had begun.

’I had underestimated the caliber of our students. These four, fighting without the aid of their beasts, are not only holding their own but mounting a genuine challenge... United, they might actually achieve victory,’ Monica mused, her eyes glued to the screen as the girls executed a series of coordinated attacks, giving the formidable fox no respite.

"Incredible... these four are truly powerful," a student murmured in awe.

"Yes! I can scarcely believe we share the academy with such formidable classmates," another echoed, their face a mask of impressed disbelief.

"Even Advika is standing her ground." A third remarked, their initial skepticism replaced by grudging admiration.

The observing students buzzed with excited chatter, their faces reflecting a mixture of shock and profound respect.

BOOOM!!

The fox crashed heavily to the ground, its powerful body convulsing, crimson blood staining its black fur.

**This... cannot be!** He spat out, his voice ragged with disbelief and pain.

Slowly, the fox pushed itself back to his feet, his golden eyes surveying the four figures before him...

...Each girl bore the marks of the brutal exchange: deep gashes from his claws, bruises from his devastating skills. They were wounded, battered, but still standing.

**You humans... possess a tenacity I had not anticipated!!**

The fox clenched his bloodied fists, his gaze burning with renewed ferocity.

**But I will not fall so easily!!**

He roared, lunging forward once more, his claws outstretched towards the vulnerable Katherine.

"Heaven Blades!"

Leyla raised her sword high above her head, the polished surface of its blade radiating an incandescent light.

**This?!**

The fox recoiled slightly, a flicker of surprise in its golden eyes.

"Die!!!"

With a powerful downward arc, Leyla slashed her sword, unleashing a concentrated beam of pure light energy towards the charging beast.

BOOOM!!!!!

The fox was hurled backward by the force of the impact, smashing heavily onto the blood-soaked earth. More blood stained his fur, his powerful body now visibly weakened.

"That... that should have done it, right?" Chloe asked, her gaze fixed on the swirling dust, a knot of uncertainty tightening in her stomach.

Through the dissipating haze, a dark silhouette slowly began to rise.

"You have got to be kidding me?!" Katherine growled in utter frustration.

**HUMANS!!!!**

The fox’s enraged roar echoed across the ravaged landscape.

He was undeniably still alive.

Before the weakened beast could launch another assault, a blindingly brilliant silver beam of light streaked across the sky from a distant point, slamming into the already battered Boss with cataclysmic force.

BOOOOOOM!!!!!

".....?!"

"...!!!"

The four girls and every single observer, both within the simulation and in the training grounds, were rendered utterly speechless by the sudden, devastating intervention.

"We won."

The four girls whirled around at the sound of the calm, almost detached voice. Standing some distance away, was the one who had spoken.
