Chapter 322
322 I’ll Shock You!
Hearing Bard’s exclamation, his team members looked at him in surprise. For some reason, the usually calm Bard was so excited.
“Mr. Schneider, Moss is sixteen?! Can a newbie who has just awakened their profession participate in the elite training program? Does that mean he went up against third-year high school students but still won the Best Graduate award?
“Then, did he take this year’s college entrance exams and get into Kyoto Institute to represent them in this competition?” One question after another, Bard looked at Schneider with his eyes wide open in surprise, unable to control the shock in his heart.
Everyone looked at Schneider in shock.
Schneider nodded and said regretfully, “Moss made White Deer High proud by winning the professional competition, so they appealed for an extra spot for him in S City’s elite training program. That’s why he participated in it as a second-year high school student.
“Also, it was because he won the Best Graduate award that White Deer High’s director made an exception for Moss to participate in this year’s college entrance exams.
“However, Moss met his expectations and became the top scorer of S City’s college entrance exams this year.”
“He’s even the top scorer in S City’s college entrance exams?!” Bard could no longer stay calm. His eyes were wide open as he looked at Schneider in disbelief.
“Isn’t that an exaggeration?”
“Is he a genius? Is Moss more talented than Safin?”
“Why do I feel like he’s no ordinary Knight?”
“Yeah, how can ordinary Knights do all that in such a short period?”
...
The other team members could not help but express their shock.
“Yes, I went there for the second time because Moss was the top scorer in S City. When I received the news, I felt highly remorseful, but I was powerless to change anything.
“I went to White Deer High again with low expectations. After all, Moss was already S City’s top scorer then, and he could pick any of the top three institutes to attend.”
“I see!” Bard patted his forehead. “It’s not hard to understand his performance just now.”
However, Bard’s pupils dilated again when he thought of Moss’s Bloodthirsty Bighorn Sheep. He said with a shocked expression, “Now, we can be sure Moss was undoubtedly holding back his strength!
“Even though I don’t exactly know what Magical Beast he had tamed, It’s undoubtedly a mighty one! However, his trump card should not be a Magical Beasts!
“Since no one used Magical Beasts in the previous matches, Kyoto would not take the lead and place their bets on this. Then what else is Moss holding back?” Bard became more shocked when he thought Moss could hide a more powerful thing than the Bloodthirsty Bighorn Sheep.
Schneider fell silent.
He was a young teacher, and his understanding of tamed Magical Beasts was limited. He had only managed to continue working at the Aerospace University because of his outstanding talent. He didn’t know how to answer Bard’s question.
When the other team members heard what Bard said, they also became even more shocked. For a time, the Aerospace University’s resting area fell into silence.
...
Meanwhile, all team members and professors in Donghu’s lounge surrounded Atwood as several pairs of eyes looked at him with anticipation.
The match was over. Although everyone felt regretful, Atwood’s team members and professors were more interested in what had happened in his and Moss’s match.
“Where should I start?” Atwood held his head and kept shaking it, a little agitated. He had yet to recover from that nightmare-like, inconceivable, unforgettable, and painful match.
“When I saw the Golden Liger’s leap attack only leave a crack on Moss’s shield, I knew you were going to get impatient,” Ya Heng rested his chin on his hand and squinted as he spoke leisurely.
Atwood shook his head gently, his tightly furrowed brows almost coming together as he said weakly, “Indeed, I was a little surprised at that time. The impact of the Golden Liger’s leap was close to ten tons. Even the level 37 Herculean Assassin from HN University, Fanny, could not shatter Moss’s shield. It’s impossible for my Golden Liger only to cause a crack on it.”
“Then he must have preserved his strength. Your Golden Liger wasn’t just testing the waters when it leaped,” Asa nodded slightly, his tone full of certainty.
“If that’s the case, wasn’t Moss too confident in his defense? How accurate must the control of his defense and prediction of his opponent’s attack be to achieve this? What’s going on?” Yamos asked in shock, sensing the difficulty of the task.
Then he continued excitedly, “With a strong defense, the shield will not look like it’s about to break. However, if Moss didn’t control it well, the shield’s defense would be weak. If Fanny broke the shield, Moss would likely get hit!”
Atwood’s eyes widened when he heard that. At that moment, he sobered up again and said in a daze, “His defense is indeed solid. My Sky-howling Demonic Wolf and I attacked him from behind.
“We used 80% of our strength in the attack along with my hunting fork, but we only cracked his shield. After that, I used my Soul-chasing hunter fork, but it only left a hole in his shield. It didn’t break it.”
Ya Heng’s eyes were wide open and full of light. He was astounded. “Even I won’t dare to face your Soul chasing hunter fork head-on, but Moss did. In addition to his extraordinary courage, it should also be a display of confidence.”
Ya Heng had given Moss another nod of approval.
“However, compared to his defense, I feel that the Golden Liger’s disobedience is even more shocking! Although I don’t have any evidence, I’m confident this has much to do with Moss.”
Atwood was also in high spirits. He thought of something and said, “Thinking back to the Golden Liger’s expression and reaction, I feel it had started treating Moss as its master. Otherwise, it would have reacted when Moss attacked it.”
At this moment, he no longer cared about his reputation and would feel more comfortable if he told the truth.
“The Golden Liger you tamed disobeyed the orders of a Beast King like you. That is incredibly unbelievable!”
“Are there other professions that can tame Magical Beasts better than Beast Kings?”
...
The team members also expressed their doubts.
Lisa, standing opposite Atwood, suddenly said, “A Beast King not only uses his unique taming skills to tame ferocious beasts but also his spiritual power. The effective combination of spiritual energy and taming skills will make it easier for him to tame ferocious beasts.”
Ya Heng’s eyes widened even more as he asked in shock, “Miss Lisa, are you saying Moss’s spiritual power is abnormally potent?!”
