After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer - Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Chapter 127 Dark Fire

“Energy Level 60?” Chen Xing couldn’t help but frown slightly upon hearing this figure.

He turned to look at Kuang Shiyi, and saw him nod his head affirmatively as he said, “Yes, at least Energy Level 60, since it released twelve different skills on the field.”

Chen Xing fell into deep thought, this energy level was indeed more than just one notch above Taotie.

He knew that energy level was one of the important standards for measuring the strength of a Beast Tamer.

This energy level was indeed quite high.

“Although Energy Level 60 is rare, it’s not unheard of,” Kuang Shiyi continued.

“In the past, there would be Beast Tamings of this level appearing in the college cup every few years. Generally speaking, when such a huge energy level advantage emerges, the championship is almost secured.”

“But this year… there are a lot of discussions online, with many believing that the championship is up for grabs,” Kuang Shiyi said, his mouth curling into a slight smile.

He glanced at Chen Xing and continued, “A big part of the reason for that is your Beast Taming.”

“Coach, do you have information on the opponent?”

“I’ve already gathered some,” Kuang Shiyi replied.

“The opponent has kept their information very secret, it seems they’ve been eyeing the championship from the start.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “They just didn’t expect a dark horse like you to suddenly appear.”

“I’ve sent the information to your phone, take a look,” Kuang Shiyi said, as Chen Xing’s phone also produced a notification sound.

He unlocked his phone screen and accepted the file that Kuang Shiyi had sent.

Upon opening the file, the first thing to catch his eye was a photograph of the Thunder Sound Dragon.

It was a blue Giant Dragon that looked very much like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, its sturdy hind legs supporting its enormous body which seemed to radiate power.

The blue scales glistened in the sunlight, as if each one contained immense energy.

What caught the attention the most was the electric arcs that surrounded the surface of those scales, as if they were incessantly pulsating and flickering, adding an aura of mystery and majesty to the Giant Dragon.

There were corresponding data annotations for the size, with a length of close to twenty-five meters, a hip height of about seven meters, and a head height of nearly ten meters.

Estimated weight ranged from fifty to seventy tons.

Energy Level was above 60.

Mastered two high-level Thunder Element Skills.

Tyrannical Thunder Net and Thunder Sound Heavenly Waterfall.

High skill intensity while being proficient in close combat and skill casting, classified as a type adept in both physique and magic.

The Beast Tamer’s surname was Song, Song Yanming, a name that suggested gentility.

Next to it was his photo, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a fair complexion, a smile at the corner of his mouth, seeming well-mannered and scholarly.

While Chen Xing was browsing the information, a text message suddenly popped up on his phone.

[Great Xia Industrial & Commercial Bank] Your card ending in 2288 has an incoming transaction (from another bank) of 136,200,000 yuan on November 16th at Great Xia Industrial & Commercial Bank, with a balance of 141,100,014 yuan. Transferring partner: Han * Ning…

Chen Xing counted the balance and immediately messaged his mentor.

“Mentor, received the money you transferred. Thank you!”

Such a large sum would be hard to claim if he had to buy it on his own.

“It’s a small matter, but I might not be able to come to your match. Something urgent has come up, and I need to return to the Exotic Region earlier. Consider this my compensation to you,” Han Yuning messaged back.

“Mentor, thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. Oh, and after your competition, someone will come to pick you up. Come over to the family compound for a bit. Your six-times-great uncle’s Beast Taming is about to happen. When you get here, you can choose one of three young dragons. Even dragons born from the same litter can vary in quality and talent. I’ve asked a specialist to assist you, so when the time comes, choose the most suitable one for you.”

After sending the message, Chen Xing got ready to go watch his sister’s match.

Her match was this afternoon; it would be perfect to have lunch and then watch the afternoon event.

Chen Xing and the coach exited through the back door of the recently concluded arena.

Suddenly, Kuang Shiyi’s complexion changed. He grabbed Chen Xing at once and rolled quickly to the side.

“BOOM!!!”

A deafening explosion rang out. The spot where Chen Xing had been standing just three meters away was left with a huge pit, from which wisps of murky blue smoke rose as if it had been instantaneously pierced by a powerful force.

During the roll, Kuang Shiyi reacted swiftly; he immediately summoned his Beast Taming, the Blaze Hunter Bee.

A great deal of red light emerged from the Blaze Hunter Bee’s body. These lights melded with the shattered sand and gravel on the ground, quickly forming a set of Magma Armor that it donned.

Then, with its several claws, the Blaze Hunter Bee easily lifted Chen Xing and Kuang Shiyi from the ground and flew towards an empty building nearby.

Throughout the whole process, Kuang Shiyi and Chen Xing were on high alert, fearful of any mishaps.

After that strike, the entire arena seemed to be activated by some unknown signal.

Almost instantly, the atmosphere around tightened, and powerful auras rose from all directions simultaneously.

They rapidly converged on the location from which the attack had come.

On a high building in the distance, a man wearing a mask quietly observed everything.

His gaze pierced through layers of smoke and dust, focusing on the spot where Chen Xing and Kuang Shiyi had just been.

Watching the deep pit and the rising green smoke, a hint of regret flickered in his eyes.

That was because, the moment his Beast Taming unleashed its skill, the space around the target twisted abruptly.

He clearly saw a transparent barrier appear in front of Chen Xing and Kuang Shiyi.

The barrier seemed to be an invisible shield, refracting the attack from his Beast Taming to the side, causing the originally lethal blow to miss its mark.

He only had one chance to make a move.

If he could trade his life for that of a genius, it would certainly be worth it.

As the skill was released, he vividly felt the powerful auras from the sky and the ground closing in.

These auras were like invisible nets, making it clear he was now exposed to the sight of numerous strong figures.

The masked man didn’t feel fear or nervousness; instead, he let out a light chuckle, appearing exceptionally composed and calm.

He reached out his hand, gently stroking the head of the Beast Taming that followed him.

It was a two-meter-tall, red beetle-like Beast Taming, appearing both mighty and mysterious.

Faint thunder gleamed between its two huge pincers on top.

“Find a way to escape on your own,” the man instructed one last time before biting into the poison sac he held in his mouth.

In a very short time, the man’s eyes lost focus, his body’s surface rapidly withering and aging, and he fell from the top of the building.

In mid-air, a bird swiftly flew over to catch him.

However, just as the bird caught him, the man’s shriveled body suddenly swelled up rapidly, expanding like a balloon.

The bird was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting such a situation.

The next second, the man exploded with a boom!

His body turned into a dazzling bomb of flesh and blood, mixed with flames, bursting open in the air instantly.

The bird’s talons were caught in the powerful shockwave, suffering considerable injury.

Ten minutes later,

A cordon was raised at the base of the building, and a large number of Beast Tamings skilled in tracking were searching for scents on the Tianlou where the man had stood, trying to trace back to his originating point.

“Chief, this is what we found at the scene,” a member of the Tactical Bureau said as a bird brought him to the rooftop.

The Chief of the Tactical Bureau of Longdu Dinghai District took the item from his subordinate, a fragment of inconspicuous clothing embroidered with the word “Situ.”

…

“Dad, it absolutely wasn’t me! You have to believe me, I wouldn’t hire someone to assassinate him just because I lost, I can always find an opportunity to win back later, how could I use such despicable means.” Situ Yan said helplessly.

“I know it wasn’t you, you don’t have the guts,” Situ Zhen said calmly.

Situ Yan felt helpless at these words—what did he mean he didn’t have the guts?

“Dad, it definitely wasn’t my brother. It’s just a crude attempt to frame someone,” Situ Xiaoqing suggested, “but we can’t just do nothing.”

Situ Xiaoqing thought for a moment, “I think we can bring some gifts to visit the other party.”

“Why should we go? Wouldn’t going make us look even more guilty?” Situ Yan didn’t understand.

Situ Xiaoqing shook her head, explaining to her brother, “No, the reason we should go is precisely because we aren’t guilty, so we must act openly and righteously.”

“One who stands upright does not fear a crooked shadow, and some things are clearer when said face to face. It might also make the other party speak out to dispel the rumors for us, taking this opportunity to make good ties with them.”

As she spoke, Situ Xiaoqing’s eyes went cold, “Moreover, I have a guess about which power is behind this.”

Situ Yan hurriedly asked, not wanting to take the blame for such a serious accusation, “Who is it?”

“Dark Fire from Fentian Giant City. I’ve been attacked by them several times. They’re keen on assassinating our local geniuses. According to the descriptions, the method of the man taking poison to blow himself up is clearly their style of carefully trained assassins.”

Situ Yan had heard about similar organizations from the Exotic Regions, but this was the first time he had heard this name.

These assassins are sometimes mixed breed between people from the Exotic Regions and Blue Star, or outright traitors who have sided with the Exotic Regions.

“Sis, I won’t be assassinated too, right?” Situ Yan asked anxiously.

Situ Xiaoqing glanced at her brother, reassuring him, “You might be overthinking it.”
