The master at the eighth grade of the Supernal Stage was so shocked by Robin's power that he froze
for a moment.
All the spectators were also equally shocked, not just because Robin had withstood the strong blow,
but also because an even stronger aura had suddenly burst out of it.
Almost at the same time, there came a shout. "Time's up!"
With its own strength, Robin had actually grabbed the ball-flower from the master at the seventh grade
of the Supernal Stage, and successfully kept it when facing the master at the eighth grade of the
Supernal Stage, as well as the spirit-manipulated beast at the fifth grade of the five-star level.
Moreover, at the last moment, Robin had revealed an aura so astonishing that no one present could
believe their eyes.
However, as soon as the announcement came that the time was up, the unusual aura around Robin
disappeared and it immediately returned to its former state.
In contrast to everyone around them, Elder Duke and Jason were sitting there with gloomy faces,
because they had not expected that a spirit-manipulated beast could defeat two powerful royal spirit
manipulators in a row.
Of course, if it was a true one-on-one battle, Robin might not win. But since the battle had a time limit
and was held under special conditions, Robin could exert its advantage to the limit to win.
"Sampson, it's your turn!" Elder Duke knew that the royal family could not afford to lose anymore as
there were only two top masters at the peak of the ninth grade of the Supernal Stage left in their team.
Therefore, he looked at one top master at the ninth grade of the Supernal Stage and gave him a hint.
Sampson nodded immediately and slowly walked to the battle ring.
As soon as he appeared, the crowd burst into an uproar. His name was known to everyone in the Holy
Dragon Empire, because he could be considered the first genius master among the younger generation
of the royal family twenty years ago. Now, at the mere age of fifty, he had already reached the peak
level of the ninth grade of the Supernal Stage. Naturally, everyone knew his potential. He was also the
strongest master among the five masters that Elder Duke and Jason had brought here. What was
more, Sampson's spirit-manipulated beast was a very rare kind of dragon beast, called the Waning
Moon Snow Dragon. It had gotten its name because of the mark of the waning moon on its forehead. It
was famous for its speed and was widely known as the nemesis of any spirit-manipulated beast of
speed.
It seemed that Elder Duke had sent Sampson to the battle ring because he didn't want to leave the Ji
Clan any chance to win this time.
As soon as Sampson stepped onto the stage, he summoned his Waning Moon Snow Dragon. It was a
war dragon at the fifth grade of the five-star level, and was five meters long and more than three meters
tall. The beast flew out of the Magic Spiritual Space and hovered in the air before landing beside
Sampson.
As soon as Robin set eyes on the Waning Moon Snow Dragon, it seemed to realize that the upcoming
battle would not be a simple one, so it could not help but turn vigilant. As expected, the Waning Moon
Snow Dragon did not wait so much as a second before turning into a white shadow like the wind and
pouncing on Robin. It moved at such a fast speed that only a few peerless masters at the Divine Stage
could keep up with it. It was almost as fast as Robin.
Seeing the speed of the Waning Moon Snow Dragon, Robin reacted immediately, and the two beasts
became locked in a fast-motion battle. However, it was obvious that Robin was physically weak after
fighting the two previous battles. Its speed had considerably decreased, and it was not as alert as
before.
A moment later, the Waning Moon Snow Dragon seized the opportunity and lifted Robin's whole body
up into the air.
At this time, Sampson, who hadn't made a move until now, suddenly took a deep breath and stretched
his hands forward. Two thick and long ice chains shot out from his sleeves and tied up Robin at once.
Robin struggled wildly, but it was unable to break free from the ice chains. The Waning Moon Snow
Dragon also zoomed forward to grab the ball-flower in Robin's hand.
All the spectators groaned, thinking that there was no way Robin would be able to hold onto the ball-
flower in this situation.
Just as the Waning Moon Snow Dragon was about to grab the ball-flower, however, a colorful cloud
shadow suddenly flew down from the sky and directly knocked it into the air. Then, the colorful cloud
shadow opened its mouth and bit the ice chains that had trapped Robin, causing them to instantly
break. Regaining its freedom, Robin hooked its forelimbs around the colorful cloud shadow and flew to
the ground with it.
The spectators once again gasped in awe and started chattering excitedly, because none of them had
expected that another spirit-manipulated beast would come out to rescue Robin. Although they did not
know who the owner of the other mysterious spirit-manipulated beast was, it seemed to be against the
rules.
Unexpectedly, the spectators received yet another shock when the colorful cloud shadow landed on the
ground, because this was the first time they were seeing such a royal spirit-manipulated beast. Its
whole body was fluttering with clouds and flickering with colorful lights. Its tall and elegant posture
made it look like the king of the spirit-manipulated beasts. Coupled with its powerful aura, it was
obviously not an ordinary spirit-manipulated beast.
"Is it a King-level spiritual beast?" Soon, some of the more knowledgeable people in the audience
started speculating about the identity of the new spirit-manipulated beast.
In fact, it was because Ken had undergone such a significant transformation in the past half a year that
no one present could recognize that it was actually the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, one of the five King-
level spiritual beasts.
"Chief Elvis, what's going on here?" Elder Duke asked coldly, looking at Elvis.
"Well..." Elvis was equally at a loss and had no idea what was happening. Of course, he didn't know
that Rocky actually had two spirit-manipulated beasts.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. They are both my spirit-manipulated beasts. I don't think it's wrong for
them to fight together, right? There is no rule in this competition that you are not allowed to control two
spirit-manipulated beasts at the same time..." At this moment, a playful voice sounded throughout the
arena.
Everyone present curiously turned their heads towards the source of the voice.
From a remote corner of the southern end of the arena, a man dressed in ordinary clothes with a
bamboo hat on his head shuffled through the crowd and walked to the middle of the arena.
"It's him!" As soon as Jason saw the man wearing the bamboo hat, he stood up excitedly with a
murderous look on his face.
"He's the one who hurt you? But he doesn't look as strong as you said." Elder Duke frowned and
studied the man. He could sense that the man was at the premium grade of the Supernal Stage, but his
aura was definitely not strong. How could this person hurt a peerless master at the Divine Stage like
Jason? Elder Duke found it very strange.
Of course, if he had known that the man wearing the bamboo hat was actually Rocky, the one who had
taken away the spiritual treasure right from under his nose in the Nine-phoenix Demonic Land not long
ago, he would not have thought so.
Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "What did he say just now? Those two spirit-manipulated
beasts both belong to him?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present fell into silence.
