"Ha ha, do you have anything else to say?"
Callum asked loudly, his face full of schadenfreude as he looked at Everett.
Everett, already in a foul mood, glared at Callum and snorted coldly.
A trendous crash resounded.
The Divine Beast's secret realm had completely collapsed.
A barrage of rainbow-colored light shot out.
With the help of the rainbow light, the Beast Masters inside the secret realm managed to escape safely.
At this mont, Nana Xu still wore an expression of shock.
She had not yet recovered from the emotions she had been feeling earlier.
Charles's performance had caused her to fall into a deep sense of self-doubt.
Had I slept for so long, and prepared so much for this mission, only for it to be all in vain? Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary smart person?
Nana Xu kept pondering this question.
It wasn't until she heard a familiar cough that she suddenly snapped out of it.
Her teacher, Everett, was standing right in front of her.
Although his face still looked grim, he had no intention of making things difficult for Nana Xu.
"I'm so sorry, teacher. I've disappointed you. I wasn't able to form a contract with the Divine Beast."
Nana Xu lowered her head in guilt as she spoke.
Everett comforted her in a slightly hoarse voice.
At that mont, Isolde suddenly appeared in front of Everett.
"The secret realm has collapsed completely. Everyone should leave imdiately. This is not the Haunted Marsh, so the Beast Masters from the Haunted Marsh should leave first."
Isolde issued the order without hesitation.
He did so to ensure Charles's safety.
He was very concerned that Everett would seize the opportunity, now that Charles had just exited the secret realm, to take so underhanded action.
Though his strength was on par with Everett's, he couldn't be sure he could block all of Everett's attacks.
Callum wasted no ti and added, "What are you Beast Masters from the Haunted Marsh still doing here? Are you going to continue making a fool of yourselves?"
Everett looked coldly at Isolde and Callum.
He had realized that everyone's attention was focused on the three of them.
Although most people were just watching for the spectacle, many were secretly mocking Everett and the Beast Masters he had brought along.
"This ti was only because of your luck! Next ti, you won't have such good fortune!"
Everett left those words behind and quickly disappeared into thin air.
Nana Xu and the other Beast Masters from the Haunted Marsh hurriedly fled in disgrace.
Watching the embarrassed retreat of the Haunted Marsh Beast Masters, Callum burst into laughter.
"It's been so long since I've seen these idiots make fools of themselves! This is too satisfying! Thanks to Charles, I finally got to see Everett in such a pitiful state."
Callum and Everett had a long-standing rivalry.
Seeing his old adversary embarrass himself in such a way was a mont of great satisfaction.
Isolde, however, remained much calr than Callum.
He coldly watched the retreating figures of the Beast Masters, ensuring that they were truly leaving and not lying in wait for an ambush nearby.
With the departure of Everett and his group, most of the onlookers began to disperse.
As the crowd thinned, Charles still had not appeared, which made Callum feel a bit anxious.
He walked up to Isolde and quietly asked, "Do you think Charles is in any danger? Didn't you say you'd bring all the Beast Masters out before the secret realm collapsed? Does that an Charles wasn't included among them?"
"Don't worry yet. Perhaps Charles is dealing with sothing else."
Isolde replied calmly.
As it turned out, Isolde's guess was right.
When the secret realm collapsed, Charles had already taken Zara to a safe location.
He didn't want to et Everett—not because he was afraid of him, but because he felt that bringing a Serpent along to et Everett would cause unforeseen trouble.
He planned to wait until Everett and the others had left before making his appearance.
During this waiting period, he continued discussing the situation with Zara regarding Serpent Queen Aria.
In the course of their discussion, Zara revealed a crucial piece of information.
"The curse on Her Majesty the Queen is actually due to Demigod blood, which is why the curse can only be lifted with the Tears of an Angel."
Upon hearing this critical piece of information, Charles imdiately asked,
"Can you guarantee that what you're saying is true?! I need a firm answer!"
Charles suddenly beca very serious, which surprised Zara slightly.
However, before coming here, she had already decided to follow Charles's instructions without question.
"I can guarantee that what I'm saying is true! In fact, Her Majesty the Queen is well aware of this herself! Many people in our Serpent Empire are aware of this information."
After receiving the affirmative response, Charles's face lit up with excitent.
Demigod blood was an essential material he needed.
If he could obtain Demigod blood, it would solve the upgrade material dilemma that most mystical beasts faced.
Charles quickly pondered, and in the end, he decided to follow Zara to the Serpent Empire.
"I think, to ensure that Her Majesty the Queen's curse can be completely lifted, I should personally go to the Serpent Empire. After all, the Tears of an Angel were brought by Rainbow. There may be so important information that only Rainbow knows."
Zara naturally fully supported Charles's proposal.
She happily replied,
"If that's the case, that's fantastic. After eting you, Her Majesty the Queen will certainly feel much better. With you by her side, her curse will definitely be resolved easily."
"Alright! Then we'll spend the day preparing, and leave first thing tomorrow morning."
Charles and Zara finalized their plan of action.
At this mont, Charles glanced in the direction where Everett had been earlier, but Everett and the Haunted Marsh Beast Masters had already disappeared.
"The annoying flies have already left! We can go now!"
Rainbow imdiately transford into her dragon form.
The divine dragon, constantly glowing with rainbow light, flew Charles and Zara to stand before Isolde and Callum.
Seeing the divine dragon, even the usually composed Isolde showed a look of surprise on his face.
"The Divine Beast truly lives up to its na!"
Isolde said with a sense of admiration.
Callum didn't speak, too stunned to say anything.
While both of them had high hopes for Charles, they hadn't expected his performance to be so flawless.
Compared to them, Charles appeared much calr.
He imdiately expressed his gratitude to the two of them.
"Thank you both so much for your help! Without you, I would have been in serious trouble."
Upon hearing Charles's words, both of them turned their gaze to him.
Callum nodded in satisfaction and said, "Honestly, we didn't help all that much. Once you entered the secret realm, you were already relatively safe. I was just keeping an eye on that old bastard Everett outside."
Isolde nodded in agreent with Callum's view.
He didn't think it was necessary to dwell on this matter.
What he was more concerned about was what Charles would do next.
"When do you plan to enter the main branch of Cyber Academy? You're already a level five Beast Master, and you've made a contract with a Divine Beast. From any angle, you've earned the right to enter the main branch of Cyber Academy."
Facing Isolde's question, Charles wiped the smile from his face and gave a serious reply.
"I do plan to enter the main branch of Cyber Academy, but before that, I have one very important task to complete."
Without speaking further, he turned his gaze toward Zara.
Isolde did not continue to ask further questions.
He seed to accept Charles's decision very easily.
"As long as you have made your own judgnt, that's fine. When you decide to enter the main branch of Cyber Academy, co find . I have so things to discuss with you."
With that, Isolde transford into a shadow and left.
Seeing this, Callum also planned to take his leave.
"I have many things to handle. There are still many disputes in the market that require my judgnt. If you run into any trouble again, let know when the ti cos."
With that, Callum left as well.
After handling all of his affairs, Charles's next task was, of course, to prepare with Zara for their upcoming journey to the Serpent Empire.
At the sa ti, in the Haunted Marsh, within a massive palace,
Everett paced back and forth with a grave expression.
Not far from him stood the young Beast Masters of the Haunted Marsh, led by Nana Xu.
These Beast Masters were all considered geniuses, but clearly, their performance in the Divine Beast's secret realm had fallen far short of expectations.
"It seems you still lack enough practical combat experience. You young geniuses should go out and gain so field experience." Everett stopped and said coldly.
None of the young Beast Masters from the Haunted Marsh dared to rebut Everett's words.
After all, their performance had indeed been dismal.
"I've thought about it, and I believe the Akhatama Desert is a place that offers enough danger for you. The area is filled with hidden ferocious beasts and the remnants of ancient Demigods. There, you can get plenty of experience."
After saying this, Everett left.
He didn't need to make elaborate arrangents.
All he had to do was give the order, and everything else would be handled by others.
The young Beast Masters of the Haunted Marsh stood dejected, knowing all too well what the Akhatama Desert was. Entering that desert ant stepping into a perilous den of danger!
As the strongest among the young Beast Masters, Nana Xu was supposed to go out for training as well.
However, she felt that her previous approach to strengthening her power had so issues, so she ultimately decided to adjust her approach before proceeding further.
