I Let You Manage the Beast Taming Arena, Now Everyone Became Divine Beasts? Chapter 121 – Preparing for a Head–on Battle

The four dazzling golden rays that the Metal-feathered Eagle shot out when it spread its wings were not only extremely fast, but also very powerful.

The Metal-feathered Eagle's combat effectiveness rank is three ranks lower than that of my Leaf-eared Cat. Under these circumstances, the golden rays it emits can actually easily cut through the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers' that the Leaf-eared Cat unleashed.

Seeing the two halves of the leaf-shaped dark green spiritual energy gradually dissipating in the air, Annie, who was standing on the side of the battlefield, raised her head slightly to observe the Metal-feathered Eagle and made her judgment.

In that case, the four dazzling golden rays emitted by the Metal-feathered Eagle should be a metal-type skill that counters plant-type skills.

Compared to Hash, who was an Epic-rank Beast Tamer, Annie's spiritual perception was much weaker.

Thus, although Annie's gaze had been focused on the Metal-feathered Eagle in the air after she commanded the Leaf-eared Cat to attack, the Metal-feathered Eagle sudden closing and opening of its wings was too unusual and the four dazzling golden rays of light had suddenly flew out very quickly from between its wings, so Annie did not notice that the four dazzling golden rays were actually wrapped around the metal feathers from the wings of the Metal-feathered Eagle.

However, based on her spiritual perception and the feedback from the Leaf-eared Cat that was in the arena, Annie came to the conclusion that the golden rays that the Metal-feathered Eagle shot out from between its wings was a metal-type skill that she had never seen before.

Furthermore, when the Metal-feathered Eagle faced the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that were flying towards it from four different directions, its calm and collected reaction made Annie realize something else.

When the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers were nearest to the Metal-feathered Eagle, they were less than a meter away.

However, the reason the Metal-feathered Eagle had not taken action immediately was not because it was giddy due to the Leaf-eared Cat's movements.

The Metal-feathered Eagle had just shot out four dazzling golden rays of light and accurately struck the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that were flying in from four directions. This means that its eyes can actually detect the trajectory of the Green Leaf Flying Daggers.

The reason why the Metal-feathered Eagle did not take action immediately might be because it was preparing to unleash its metal-type skill, or it might be because it was trying to capture the trajectory of the Leaf-eared Cat's actions.

That's not right! Even if the cat's speed is raised to its limit, it still isn't as fast as the Green Leaf Flying Daggers.

Since the Metal-feathered Eagle's eyes can detect the trajectory of the Green Leaf Flying Daggers, it must also be able to see the Leaf-eared Cat's movements!

After Annie realized this, she suddenly recalled the scene of Giles' brows knitting together as he watched the Leaf-eared Cat shuttling through the bushes.

At that moment, Annie immediately understood why Giles had frowned slightly.

So what Giles said before wasn't a lie.

Giles completely treated this ability evaluation as an official gym challenge.

What he said to me previously was also a suggestion from the capacity of a ‘Gym Leader'.

And the reason Giles was frowning at that time was because of the Leaf-eared Cat that kept darting through the bushes.

It was not because the Metal-feathered Eagle couldn't spot the Leaf-eared Cat after its speed gradually increased.

On the contrary, it was because the Metal-feathered Eagle had always been able to track the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat that he frowned.

Because as a challenger of the gym, I didn't realize from his suggestion that the Metal-feathered Eagle could capture the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat.

Furthermore, I continued to let the Leaf-eared Cat waste its spiritual energy to activate its innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature', to conceal itself. I even tried to create opportunities by increasing its speed and exhausting its physical strength.

At the thought of this, Annie subconsciously looked at Giles, who was standing opposite her.

Annie felt her face heat up at the sight of Giles' nonchalant expression.

Before this ability evaluation began, I even made a promise to Giles that I and the Leaf-eared Cat would definitely do our best in the battle.”

But after the ability evaluation began, I forgot my identity as a challenger and completely didn't have the correct attitude.

Just as Her Excellency Hash said before the battle began, the evaluation for Giles' ability is actually to evaluate whether Giles has the ability to be the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

Therefore, the entire battle process is actually the same as when I challenged Starlux Gym last month. But just now, I didn't regard Giles as the Gym Leader at all.

Moreover, I thought that Giles was lying to me when he said those words. That is completely disrespectful to this ability evaluation and also disrespectful to Giles, who is working hard to prove that he can be the Acting Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

This might even affect Giles' final evaluation after the ability evaluation.

Annie, who felt extremely sorry and ashamed of what had just happened, felt her face burning up.

As the challenger, she didn't even dare to look in Giles and Hash's direction.

However, when she subconsciously looked towards the arena, she suddenly noticed the Leaf-eared Cat that was still hiding in the bushes.

At that moment, the Leaf-eared Cat and Annie looked at each other. Annie could sense the concern in its eyes.

“No way! I have to treat this ability evaluation as a gym challenge!”

Annie snapped out of it and realized that the evaluation of Giles' abilities was still ongoing.

Thus, she communicated telepathically with the Leaf-eared Cat to tell it not to worry about her.

“Since I've already made a mistake, I have to change my attitude!”

“This is the greatest respect I can show towards Giles, Her Excellency Hash, and the audience!”

Annie took a deep breath and adjusted her condition.

At the same time, she began to think about how to let the Leaf-eared Cat, which could not fly, deal with the Metal-feathered Eagle, which also had a long-range attack skill.

Although I don't know if that is the Metal-feathered Eagle's skill or something else, based on its previous performance, it can indeed see the Leaf-eared Cat hiding in the bushes even after the activation of its innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature'.

Therefore, in the upcoming battle, it will be a waste of spiritual energy for the Leaf-eared Cat to use its innate skill.

Since hiding in the dark and increasing its speed won't work, in that case, the most direct and effective method is to let the Leaf-eared Cat use its three-rank advantage to fight the Metal-feathered Eagle head on.
