Chapter 1266 A scary little fox



Chapter 1266  A scary little fox



Utterly humiliated, and fueled by rage and frustration, the golem charged with reckless abandon, its movements growing more erratic and less calculated. Meanwhile, Luna continued her playful antics, dodging with ease and even occasionally pausing to mock the golem, much to the crowd's amusement and the owner's chagrin.


The audience who were rooting against the little fox was now thoroughly entertained by the spectacle. Cheers and laughter echoed through the arena, as the once fearsome golem became the butt of the joke, clumsily trying to catch the cute little fox.


"Look at that thing go! It's like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands!" someone shouted from the crowd, eliciting more laughter.


"That brute better not catch that cute fur ball!" Another one shot a glare at the owner.


Liam, still rubbing his temples, couldn't help but feel amazed at Luna's talent. As a divine beast, her charm was not something to be underestimated. But… she was still playing around.


Sigh. Liam shook his head. He knew she was capable of ending the fight quickly, but it seemed she was having too much fun toying with her opponent.


Finally, after several minutes of the one-sided chase, Luna seemed to grow bored. With a swift movement, almost too fast for the eye to see, she darted behind the golem and struck it at a critical point. The impact was light, but the precision was impeccable.


The golem staggered, a momentary look of confusion crossing its features before it collapsed to the ground, knocked out and defeated. The arena erupted in cheers and applause, many people converted into fans of the naughty little fox.


The match ended just like that and the two beasts were teleported back to the gambling floor fighting pits. Luna trotted back towards Liam, her tail wagging happily as she received a round of applause and admiration from the crowd.


Liam bent down to pat her head, his lips curving up in amusement. "Well done, Luna," he said softly, "though you really didn't have to drag it out that long."


Luna simply looked up at him and gave a sheepish grin, her eyes gleaming with mischief and satisfaction.


Many people laughed at this heartwarming interaction. It took them a minute to come back to reality when they remembered just how much they hated this damned person!


Naturally, not everyone was frivolous enough to forget about their grudge. The golem-type beast might have lost considering how it seemed like a complete idiot but not everyone raised idiots as beasts.


Watching Liam walk over to register once again, many others jumped to register again to compete against the lucky guy.


He could feel the weight of many eyes on him, some filled with begrudging respect, others with undisguised hostility. Liam did not mind. The more the merrier. The betting was off the charts and the odds against him were pretty high, making him richer every time he won, lining his pockets heavily.


Soon, it was time for the next fight and this time a man with a scar running along the side of his face walked to the desk. His beast, a hulking lupine creature with scales that shimmered like molten lava, stood beside him, exuding an aura of raw power.


The two beasts entered the fighting pits and soon after were teleported into the battle arena which was a dense forest this time.


The dense forest arena presented a starkly different challenge from the open, unobstructed space of the previous battles. The thick foliage and shadowy underbrush offered ample hiding spots and opportunities for an ambush, a setting that could benefit or hinder either beast depending on their skills and strategies.


As the battle commenced, the wolf did not waste any time and acted first. It used its powerful legs to leap into the dense underbrush, disappearing from view. The next second rustling sounds and snapping of twigs started emerging from here and there. It was clear that the wolf was moving at an incredible speed but the creature was almost impossible to locate.


This sort of speed was way beyond just higher stats and was only possible if the beast was using the power of a Dao seed. "Dao seed of lightness…" Liam made a guess.


To make matters worse, the wolf quickly had Luna cornered as it started running around her in circles. Its high speed and agility made its movements appear like a blur around her. But the real danger next arrived.


All of a sudden, the beast extended its paw and sent out a powerful attack towards the center. A burst of energy in the form of a claw emanated from the beast's paw, shooting towards Luna with astonishing speed and precision.


Luna moved and the claw missed her but it struck a nearby tree, cutting it down in half, fire licking the edges of the broken trunk. The wolf did not care that its attack was dodged. Instead, the beast continued running around Luna as it sent multiple claw attacks in the same fashion, each causing significant damage to the surrounding forest. Trees were sliced, the underbrush was shredded, and the ground was torn apart. The wolf's relentless assault created a chaotic environment, turning the once dense and serene forest into a battleground of destruction.


Moreover, all of this happened in an instant. The crowd held their breath as they couldn't help but worry about the little fox caught amid the ferocious onslaught.


The fox, however, was seemingly very calm. She only made little moves to evade the attacks, making it seem as if she almost did not move at all.


But before long, she finally made her move. The little fox let out a yawn as she suddenly vanished from the spot she was sprawled on. Everyone peeled their eyes to see where she was when someone pointed out that she was flying.


The next second, her little mouth opened, and from within emerged… a sea of flames.


Everyone gasped. The attacks and firepower they had witnessed up until now were nothing in front of the magnificent sea of flames that engulfed the arena. How could something so terrifying emerge from that little mouth?


This fox was not cute at all. It was a scary beast from hell!


The match ended instantly, a system-created barrier blocking the attack and protecting the wolf. Otherwise, the poor beast would have been burnt to a crisp.


The two beasts were immediately teleported back to the fighting pits, and the crowd stood dumbfounded. The cute fox was extremely deadly.


After the second match, everyone started looking at the lucky Grandmaster and his fox in a different light. A few others still registered to battle it out against Liam but nothing changed. Luna continued to thrash one beast after another, mercilessly burning her competition and dominating the arena.


However, when twenty matches were completed, the fairy manning the registration desk shook her head with a bitter smile. "I am sorry. You have met the maximum number of matches allowed for one participant in a single day," she informed Liam.


Liam, understanding the rules, nodded in acceptance. He looked down at Luna, who seemed disappointed that their string of battles was coming to an end for the day. "You know what to do." He chuckled helplessly at the little furball who quietly disappeared within his robe.


Though this little endeavor had been a headache, they had managed to gain a decent chunk of mana cores, enough to buy one legendary item from the lower floor. Unfortunately, after the first two victories, the odds were skewed and they did not gain much from winning. No one was willing to bet against them.


There was also the other thing that Liam observed. They were no longer on Earth but in Nymphomania, an entirely different world but their opponents weren't really all that strong. It was clear that the populace visiting this place wasn't particularly exceptional. The truly strong were perhaps busy improving themselves in better places. Thinking about this Liam's heartbeat quickened. If they were able to gain so much from a place like this, then how much would they advance in an actual treasured land?


He had already had one such encounter when he was unknowingly stranded in the elven world. One more opportunity like that was all he needed to completely mend himself and return to the peak of his power.


Liam's mind raced to the teleportation tokens that were available to the different worlds. Maybe that day wouldn't be too far.


Liam's gaze shifted to the next counter he had in his mind, the real fighting pits. He calmly walked over to it and registered his name. Once again, there was a loud uproar on the floor. Many with bloodshot eyes walked over to also register for the fights. This time the bastard was going to personally pay for all the heartache that he had caused.


These people had already witnessed the strength of Liam's tamed beast but they did not seem to care. When his first match started, Liam understood why. The opponent standing in front of him was definitely a Transcendent, someone a whole rank above him. Someone who had already crossed the 1000 level.
