Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Chapter 252 The Battle Ends

Soon, as the bald man's introduction came to an end, most of the spectators began to look for staff to place their bets.

Although they didn't believe that Charles could defeat Icy, they thought that facing a top-tier Level 4 Beast Master shouldn't pose much of a problem. Many people placed their bets on Charles for the win.

In the octagonal cage, the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master flexed his muscles and said to Charles:

"I watched your fight yesterday, and you were quite impressive. May I ask how many combat techniques you currently possess?"

Charles stood still, not moving. He replied seriously, "I don't know any combat techniques."

Upon hearing this, the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master was taken aback. He instinctively reached up to touch his ear, doubting whether he had heard correctly.

He initially thought Charles was joking, perhaps trying to hide his true abilities.

But looking at Charles's earnest expression, he began to believe that Charles was speaking the truth. "No combat techniques? And you dare to challenge Reaper's Scythe? You really are asking for trouble!" The beast master couldn't hold back his curiosity and wanted to know what Charles was thinking.

Charles frowned slightly. Did this guy just say he was asking for trouble?

"It's fine. Even without combat techniques, defeating you will still be a piece of cake." Charles said slowly, lifting his chin slightly and no longer looking at the expression on the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master's face.

Immediately, the beast master felt belittled and shouted, "You'll see the consequences of your arrogance soon! So what if you're strong and fast? Without combat techniques, you're nothing!"

After saying that, he left his position without hesitation and charged at Charles.

The man's speed was not slow, and his fists gleamed with a metallic sheen, catching the light in the underground arena.

"I have two combat techniques, so you won't be so arrogant after this!" he shouted.

Charles felt a bit helpless. His attitude had been quite good until this guy accused him of asking for trouble, which slightly changed his demeanor.

Besides, he was just stating facts—how was that arrogant?

Not thinking too much, Charles watched his opponent's attack and, without hesitation, tightened his fist to meet his opponent's punch.

The man was initially taken aback, thinking that Charles's earlier words were a joke. He took a closer look at Charles's fist and found nothing unusual.

"How arrogant! He's actually choosing to face my punch instead of dodging!" thought the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master.

He was using the combat technique "Iron Fist"! Metallic energy surged into his fist, strengthening his bones and enhancing his muscles and skin.

With one punch, a typical Level 4 Beast Master would likely be severely injured on the spot. Even with a genius like Charles, he was confident he could gain the upper hand.

He wasn't the only one thinking this.

The spectators in the stands, especially those who had bet on Charles to win, were directly berating him:

"Damn it! Charles, what are you doing? The opponent is clearly using combat techniques, and you go in headfirst!"

"I'm at a loss here. Is he stupid for not using combat techniques and just taking it head-on?"

"Could it be that Charles really doesn't know any combat techniques? It looks like my money is going down the drain!"

Celestine listened to the shouts from behind and was filled with anger. If she could, she would love to teach a lesson to those who were talking!

But now was not the time, her focus was entirely on Charles.

Meanwhile,

in a hospital room,

Finn and Shannon were also watching the live broadcast.

Shannon found Charles's actions baffling. In his opinion, even without using combat techniques, he shouldn't be so reckless!

A top-tier Level 4 Beast Master in the underground world wasn't that weak, they all had combat techniques and extensive battle experience.

Finn had sharp eyes. He was constantly observing Charles's expression and eyes, noticing that Charles was intentionally or unintentionally focusing on his opponent's jaw.

A premonition formed in his mind, and he said, "This top-tier Level 4 Beast Master is going to lose."

"What? How is that possible? Charles isn't using any combat techniques!" Shannon couldn't believe it.

However, what happened next proved Finn's statement right.

In the octagonal cage,

Charles's fist collided with the opponent's metallic fist.

In an instant,

an invisible shockwave spread out from the point of contact between their fists.

The top-tier Level 4 Beast Master was utterly shocked. He never expected that Charles, without using any combat techniques, could withstand this punch purely with his physical strength.

At that moment, it felt like his fist had struck steel.

He could clearly feel the pain in his knuckles.

Before he could react, Charles's left leg shot up like a drawn blade, aiming directly for his head.

As a top-tier fighter in the underground world, his reflexes were decent. He immediately tried to shift his position to defend.

But Charles didn't give him that opportunity. As Charles's right leg was in mid-air,

he retracted his right arm and, while turning, delivered a powerful elbow strike straight to the opponent's jaw.

The underground octagonal cage's top-tier Level 4 Beast Master, who had two combat techniques, managed to use only one—"Iron Fist"—before collapsing to the ground.

The entire underground world fell silent in an instant.

Then, a wave of cheers erupted. Countless spectators waved their betting slips and shouted:

"Awesome! I apologize, Charles, you are the strongest!"

"To defeat him without using combat techniques is just incredible!"

"Hahaha, I won money! Now I don't have to worry!"

Cheers echoed throughout the underground world.

Celestine let out a sigh of relief. She looked at Charles standing in the octagonal cage and the opponent lying at his feet.

Her heart was filled with admiration. At that moment, Charles seemed even more impressive in her eyes!

Meanwhile, in Calivia's hospital room,

Shannon turned to Finn, mumbling, "No way, how did you know? Charles is incredible!"

Finn slowly replied, "He's even stronger than I thought. But this still isn't enough, he's not a match for Icy."

Mentioning Icy, Finn's eyes dimmed.

It wasn't despair from being unable to defeat an opponent, it was the loss of hope to connect with the Dawn organization that left him feeling lost, unsure of how to quickly strengthen his abilities for revenge.

"Maybe Charles really can succeed in the Reaper's Scythe challenge. If he gets into Dawn, you could ask him for help. There might still be hope." Shannon said.

He wasn't entirely clear on Dawn's rules, he only said that to uplift Finn and get him back on track.

Upon hearing those words, Finn fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was contemplating.

As Charles's first fight came to an end,

many began to notice his performance against the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master, and their impression of him started to improve slightly.

Some viewers were paying close attention in the live chat and noticed the exchange between Charles and the top-tier fighter.

Even though they couldn't hear the words, among so many netizens, there were quite a few who understood lip-reading and analyzed the conversation.

"Did Charles just say he doesn't know combat techniques?"

"Is that for real? How is he supposed to fight? The upcoming battles are definitely going to be more intense!"

"Exactly! The top-tier fighters in the underground world all have combat techniques. If Charles doesn't, he won't be able to succeed in the challenges!"

"It looks like we can't blindly bet on Charles for the next match. We need to think it through."

"Wait, didn't you notice? If Charles is already this strong without combat techniques, imagine how powerful he'd be if he actually knew them. He could definitely beat Icy."

"Are you dreaming? Icy created his own combat techniques. Can Charles compete with that?"

There will always be debates online. Some support Charles, while others back Icy, and the arguments continue to escalate.

Charles didn't have time to watch their bickering.

After a brief look at Jace and Finn, he returned to Cyber Academy.

Ruby's extra classes had been paused for a few days to avoid affecting Charles's performance.

Charles agreed with this decision, after all, being around a mature and alluring woman would inevitably influence him in some way.

Late at night,

in the Taylor family home, Zane replayed the live stream recording over and over again.

This was already the fifteenth time he had watched the footage.

"Damn it, how can he be this strong? A top-tier Level 4 Beast Master was taken down so quickly!" Zane frowned.

He was extremely worried that if Charles was hiding even more power and defeated the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master arranged by the Taylor family,

he would have no choice but to rely on Icy for the next fight. That wasn't a safe bet, as Icy hadn't gone all out against Finn,

and Zane speculated that, if all went as expected, Finn wouldn't kill Charles either.

After all, there was no real hatred between them.

"I can't let this go. I need to ask my father again if that red miracle drug can really help the top-tier Level 4 Beast Master kill Charles." Zane thought to himself.

His mind was still filled with worry because, for him, killing Charles was the most crucial task at hand.

Only by ensuring Charles's death in the octagonal cage could he forget the pain Charles had caused him before!

No one had ever treated him this way, forcing him to kneel and apologize in front of everyone, making him lose face and costing him a fortune!

If someone had dared to humiliate him like that in the past, they would have been tortured to death along with their family, disappearing from this world.

Soon, Zane entered his study.

Before long,

he emerged from the study with a smile on his face.

"With the help of the red miracle drug, Charles, you're as good as dead!" Zane clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Just moments ago, his father Benson had shown him the incredible power of the red miracle drug, and Zane finally felt at ease.

What he is looking forward to now is the battle tomorrow night.

Charles will surely die in the octagonal cage!
