Chapter 689: Chapter 181: Six Beast Cages (Part 3)
The red magic cloth slid to the ground.
The demon beast in cage number six revealed its true identity.
A horse... indeed a horse...
But in the next mont, everyone realized that the demon beast in cage number six was no ordinary horse.
"What is that?"
Yan saw a magic beast sowhat similar to a horse.
It had slender and muscular limbs, its fur as flawless as the snow of the Northern Country, a tuft of red hair on its forehead, eyelashes like butterfly wings, and a pair of eyes, human-like, filled with intelligence.
On its head, at the forehead, there was a spiral horn.
A Unihorn?
This was Yan’s first ti seeing such a magic beast.
But Yan imdiately dismissed his thought.
It’s a Unicorn, a term imdiately springing to his mind.
Among the six magical beasts participating in the annual competition, one was a mature Unicorn.
The Unicorn is a very special magic beast, or it could be called a Demigod Beast.
This magic beast was also Huo Si’s favorite; he even gave it a na, "Xu."
In the spectator seats, the audience was also watching intently.
The Sky Wings Arena truly spared no expense, to own such a magic beast.
Hell Bird and Bright Unicorns are both the most beautiful magic beasts.
But their beauty is completely different.
Hell Bird, like a Fire Phoenix from hell, dazzling and compelling everyone to watch.
The Bright Unicorn, however, possessed a noble beauty, the imprisoned unicorn looking so pitiable they were hard to bear a glance.
"Goodness, a Bright Unicorn. Oh, if the Fla Emperor could draw this magic beast," Zong Ren exclaid involuntarily upon seeing the beautiful creature caged.
"Why? Master Zong Ren, isn’t the Unicorn the most powerful among these magical beasts?" Even Huang Que, who isn’t a Summoner, knew that the rank of the Unicorn should be the highest among all Commander-level magical beasts.
Unicorn King, rumored to rank among King-level magic beasts, is also the closest to a Divine Beast, as they are blessed with Light from birth.
Unicorn, a natural Light Magic Beast.
"Because Unicorns are the most peace-loving magic beasts, they won’t attack humans unless pushed to the limit, so defeating a Unicorn is actually not difficult," Zong Ren expressed his feelings solemnly.
Compared to the five other beasts in the cages, this Unicorn looked the most eye-catching, with the highest rank among the magical beasts, but Zong Ren was sure, this Unicorn was the most harmless.
The six magical beasts had all shown their true forms, naly the first Ice River Mad Elephant, second Molten Lizard, third Hell Bird, fourth Three-headed Ghost Dog, fifth Thunder Wolf, and sixth Bright Unicorn.
After witnessing their first round of opponents, expressions varied among the competitors.
Huo Si stepped forward to release the Magic Restrictions placed on the Beast Cages.
To prevent the magical beasts from being frightened, each Beast Cage was imbued with a special magic before being moved.
Once the Prohibition was lifted, the cage doors also opened.
"Roar~~" The Ice River Mad Elephant was the first to assert dominance, tearing apart the Demon Beast Cage with its trunk as agile as an arm and sprinting out from inside.
The massive elephant, equally impressive in size and weight, shook the entire arena like an earthquake with every step it took.
Following that, the remaining demon beasts were also released from their cages.
The Hell Bird, adorned with beautiful feathers, fluffed its wings like a playful young girl as it squeezed out of the cage.
The unicorn in Cage No. 6, being the most reserved, tentatively raised its front hoof and stepped out delicately, its posture resembling that of an empress from the royal family.
The demon beasts were manageable while inside the Demon Beast Cage, but once they were released, the overwhelming presence of the commander-level beasts bore down like Mount Tai crushing down on everyone.
Upon seeing the six demon beasts, the "Fla Emperor" and the other eleven groups of contestants all gasped in shock.
Although they had known beforehand that they would be facing commander-level magical beasts, the collective oppressive aura of six commander-level beasts gathered together was still terrifying.
Among the twelve groups of contestants, one group had their knees buckle, and they embarrassingly collapsed onto the ground.
Instantly, a sigh of astonishnt erupted from the audience.
This monuntal battle between n and beasts hadn’t even started, yet the champions of the monthly competition were already showing signs of stage fright.
"Useless creatures, they’re just a bunch of magical beasts, what’s there to be afraid of," sneered two people from team Lionheart disdainfully.
"Ladies and gentlen, both sides have taken their places, allow
to explain the rules of this year’s annual competition," said another.
Tianyidong from Sky Wings loved this kind of attention from thousands, and with a burst of fighting spirit, he ford wings and swiftly moved from the audience stand to the highest point of the arena.
His shout included the Sky Wing City Lord’s unique technique, the "Sky-shattering Roar."
Following the shout, the attention of everyone present was involuntarily drawn to him, no longer paying attention to the contestant who had collapsed.
Huo Si took the opportunity to help up the fallen contestant, encouraging him on the side.
"Firstly, on behalf of Sky Wing City, I welco the ten thousand honored guests present, it is you who have made this first annual beast-human competition extraordinarily lively," he professed.
His eagle-like eyes swept across the arena capable of accommodating thousands.
"Secondly, on behalf of my father and the whole Arena, I thank the twenty-four brave souls present."
"Finally, considering the uniqueness of this competition, this year’s annual competition will be decided in two ways. The first thod is a pre-match forfeit system, where all contestants have a single opportunity to forfeit before a match starts. The second thod is a life-and-death battle format, where once the fight begins, no person or magical beast may leave the arena until it ends in death," he declared.
"What!"
The words of Tianyidong struck a different chord entirely in the ears of contestants and audience mbers alike.
The audience naturally found it thrilling; battles to the death, never giving up until one dies, were a rare and exhilarating spectacle.
They ca to the Sky Wings Arena to witness sothing extraordinary – the bloodier and more violent, the better.
In contrast, other arenas on the continent had adopted rules that stopped the contest at the first clear victory.
But for the contestants, it was different.
Having only one chance to forfeit ant that after one withdrawal, they would face a relentless fight to the death, which was clearly different from the previous competition rules of the Sky Wings Arena.
Normally, as long as a contestant voluntarily forfeited, they could end the match at any mont.
Tianyidong’s new rule was clearly orchestrating a slaughter ga.
Either kill the magical beasts and the contestants survive, or let the contestants be literally devoured by the beasts.
"No! We do not agree!"
More than half of the twenty-four contestants expressed their strong dissatisfaction.
