398: Teaching Bureau? The gap is almost overwhelming!

"Alright!"

Fang Ran's words caused a stir in the classroom.

"You want to duel me? But my Beast has already reached Monarch Mid-stage, and my second Beast… hasn't had time to advance," Nikola said, pointing to himself.

"Me too," Nova said.

Even Novich had reached Monarch Mid-stage.

Among them, perhaps only Fang Ran's Beast had a decreasing rather than increasing realm.

But that was just the realm; Xiao Nian was stronger than before.

"No matter, I also want to try if my Beast can challenge beyond its level?"

Fang Ran smiled.

These words instantly silenced everyone present.

Although his expression was calm, his words were too arrogant!

He actually wanted to challenge beyond his level? And his opponent was a genius from their Bear Country!

"Alright," Nikola chuckled twice.

He seemed to have been ignited with fighting spirit by Fang Ran.

He decided to teach him a good lesson about the gap between realms later!

A moment later, Nikola and Fang Ran stood in the center of the largest duel arena at the Holy Federation Academy.

In the surrounding spectator stands were the various genius Beast Tamer from the Holy Federation Academy, as well as Gao Jiuqiang and other King-level Beast Masters from Dragon Country.

"Come forth, Blood Beast!"

Nikola waved his hand.

A ferocious Beast made entirely of blood appeared beside him.

Its form was intangible and ever-changing; as soon as it appeared, the air seemed to be filled with a bloody stench!

"The Nikola family's Blood Beast! I heard these Blood Beasts love the blood of his family the most! They can only be fully obedient if raised with blood from a young age!"

"That's right, these Blood Beasts are all descendants of that Emperor, possessing at least a portion of Royal Blood!"

"I wonder how long this Fang Ran from Dragon Country can last? I estimate a minute?"

"You're overestimating him. There's still a gap between Monarch Early-stage and Monarch Mid-stage."

"Perhaps… if Nikola goes all out, he can end the battle in less than half a minute!"

The Beast Tamer from Bear Country conversed among themselves.

They had a filter for Nikola.

But Nova said, "You haven't seen him fight. Fang Ran's Beast is far stronger than you imagine."

"Even if Nikola can win, it won't be that easy."

Nova's words made everyone look back at the arena, curious about the young man from Dragon Country.

However, many people scoffed, secretly cursing her, thinking she must have been attracted by the man's good looks to speak well of him.

After all, they had grown up listening to Nikola's legends, and many had even entered this academy to follow him. He was a genius who had never lost!

"This kid… insists on dueling people," Gao Jiuqiang said, speechless.

"It's also a good chance to see what Fang Ran's strength truly is."

"I've heard about it, but I haven't seen it yet."

Several people were curious.

And the King-level male with dark circles under his eyes silently watched Fang Ran.

"Alright, summon your Beast, shall we?"

Nikola spread his arms.

The Blood Beast danced with his movements, not like a Beast, but rather like a mass of blood condensed into life.

Fang Ran stood forward and snapped his fingers casually, and Xiao Nian's figure appeared in the arena.

Its body was also red, but not as deep crimson as the Blood Beast, and it had a human form, immediately attracting the attention of everyone in the stands.

"Hmm? Not summoning your main Beast? Actually, both of them can come up together."

Nikola's pale face said calmly.

In front of so many Beast Tamer from his own country, he naturally had to appear magnanimous.

Otherwise, if word got out, people would say that Nikola bullied a foreign friend.

"No need."

Fang Ran spoke softly.

"Alright, I'll temporarily use thirty percent of my strength," Nikola said, holding up three fingers.

Fang Ran didn't speak, but Xiao Nian's deep pupils stared at the opponent, quietly saying, "Master… I…"

"It's just a friendly spar," Fang Ran reminded, knowing Xiao Nian's temper.

"Alright."

As Xiao Nian finished speaking, twenty blood-colored blades emerged from its back.

With a wave of its hand, a controlled Transcendent-level ferocious Beast burrowed out from underground and charged furiously towards Nikola!

"Roar!"

The ferocious Beast, as if mad, powerfully threw a punch down.

The Blood Beast transformed into a drill and instantly bored into its body, occupying the Beast's body after a moment!

"Thank you for the body you've given me," Nikola said, bowing in thanks.

This elegant demeanor drew screams from the audience on the platform.

Xiao Nian sneered, reaching out its palm towards the Blood Beast and grasping!

The Blood Beast, which had just controlled the ferocious Beast's body, instantly struggled and curled up, as if its body was being manipulated!

Three crimson beads continuously assimilated the blood within its body; as creatures that both controlled blood, the Blood Beast's ability was clearly not as exaggerated as Xiao Nian's. The proficient king-level skills could be said to perfectly counter the opponent!

Nikola's expression changed.

His face darkened as he said, "Abandon the body, don't hold back!"

He instantly grasped the situation, realizing that this was not a teaching match.

"Boom!"

The Blood Beast burst out of the ferocious Beast's shell.

It appeared intact, but it had severed a part of its body!

"You hid something in the ferocious Beast's shell?" The Blood Beast looked at Xiao Nian in front of it, speaking for the first time.

As the top-tier creature in this world, it originally looked down on everyone.

However, this small Slime in front of it gave it the feeling of a higher-level creature!

"Swish!"

Its only response was a blood-colored blade!

The Blood Beast hurriedly dodged, not daring to confront it head-on again!

Xiao Nian's ability was too strange, making it feel somewhat constrained at the moment.

"Hmph, I can't dodge, but can you dodge my skills?"

The Blood Beast shot out streams of blood!

The blood pierced through the floor, instantly corroding it black.

But when it passed through Xiao Nian's body, it seemed to be absorbed by it, disappearing without a trace in an instant!

"You?!" It couldn't believe it.

At this moment, a large blood-colored mouth emerged from the ground beneath its feet and snapped shut!

The Blood Beast was too slow to dodge and was immediately swallowed by the blood-mouth!

"Illusory Spirit Cage."

Xiao Nian slowly paced forward.

Three proficient king-level skills had extremely strong suppressive power against those of the same level!

Coupled with its own Monarch Mid-stage strength and abilities that were extremely effective against the Blood Beast, this resulted in a nearly crushing situation!

"This… how is this possible?! His… his Beast has mastered three king-level skills!"

Nikola was in disbelief.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his clasped hands trembled involuntarily; his previous composure was long gone!

Watching the blood blade get closer and closer to his Blood Beast, his already pale face seemed to have a beauty filter applied.

Fang Ran had indeed obtained many king-level skills, but how could he have learned them all in such a short time? It would take at least half a year!

"Besides, my Blood Beast has a rank suppression and also possesses a king-level skill. Even if there's a difference in skills, it shouldn't be like this!"

Nikola turned his head. The students on the surrounding high platform, still watching the match, looked at everything happening in the arena with surprise on their faces.

They seemed to be questioning why Nikola wasn't going all out yet.

In reality, his Blood Beast had been using its full power from the very beginning!
