They were just thinking that the Iaspi Leopardi was sure to be heavily injured after getting struck by the Unicorn’s electric attack, and that it would get much easier from here on. However, just a few breaths’ time later, it actually stood up again!

Liu Gang and the others exchanged glances, their feet ready to turn and make a run for it.

As for whether they would be reprimanded by Huang Juyun when they got back? Nobody knew…

However, from the looks of it, Zhang Che wasn’t a spoiled brat; he probably wouldn’t tell Huang Juyun about this matter, right?

After all, if the three of them really rushed into the battle stupidly, they would not be helping, but adding to the trouble instead. Zhang Che obviously knew this too, which was why he told them to leave earlier.

“Woah, it really didn’t get hurt much!”

Zhang Che wasn’t really surprised when he saw the Iaspi Leopardi crawl back to its feet.

Back at that secret base in Bei Mei region, the Purple Crystal Tortoise took a direct hit from the Unicorn’s electric skill as well. Wasn’t it fine afterwards, too?

It could only be attributed to the fact that the Unicorn was more inclined to the healing attribute. The electrical attack might look very flashy, but its destructive power was a little lacking.

Although it didn’t suffer much injury, the Iaspi Leopardi was still extremely angry after suffering such a cheap shot, and roared out angrily.

About half of the red locks of fur on its body were burned away. Many of its dark green scales had fallen off, and fresh blood seeped out of its flesh in many spots.

Making use of this opportunity, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus quickly rushed at it.

Even before he got close, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon began blowing streams of darkfiend cold air at the Iaspi Leopardi, neutralizing the high temperature around it from its fire elemental storm, allowing the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus to get close to it and get a good hit in.

Another five-colored streak of light shot out from between Zhang Che’s brows again, materializing into a tortoise shell-like purple armor.

—

Liu Gang and the others exchanged looks with one another again in the distance.

-As expected, this kid really has a super strong armor!-

As for why Zhang Che didn’t put it on earlier, they pretty much guessed the reason why.

First, the armor was really too ugly!

Second, since Zhang Che’s objective on this trip was to train his close combat skills, it was well within reason to not wear such a powerful set of armor.

Well, it was largely due to the first reason… it really was too, too ugly!

The three of them were even thinking that luckily the armor was purple. If it was green, perhaps this young master would never wear it even if he was beaten to death, and would choose to sell it away.

After receiving multiple gusts of darkfiend cold air blown its way, the area of the fire elemental storm around the Iaspi Leopardi was greatly suppressed, with only a thin layer of it around the beast’s body.

The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus finally found an opportunity. It roared furiously and charged forward once more.

The Iaspi Leopardi was finally enraged. It raised its lion head and let out a roar to the sky. The vital energy in its body suddenly erupted, activating its fire tornado skill.

In that instant, the wind and fire elements in the atmosphere within a thousand meter radius was gathered by an unknown force, with the Iaspi Leopardi at its center. Afterwards, a huge fiery tornado several meters wide and over twenty meters tall suddenly appeared in the valley.

After the fire tornado appeared, a wave of terrifyingly high temperature swept out in all directions. The surrounding vegetation quickly withered and directly turned into ash.

The rocks around the fire tornado directly cracked and exploded from the heat, turning into countless bits of rocks, scattering everywhere.

“So strong!”

Liu Gang and the others retreated further, cautiously sticking their heads out to observe the battle ahead. They would turn to run the moment something was not right.

The strongest subdued beast they had was only at seven-star silver-quality. It was far from able to stand up to such a ferocious beast. They would only be sending their subdued beasts to their deaths if they decided to fight, completely futile.

The difference in power between quality ranks was not very obvious at low-tier. When the beasts were at high-tier, the difference in strength of a single quality rank was as vast as the heaven and earth. It was impossible for a beast to challenge another of a similar level, but higher quality.

“You finally used it!” Zhang Che’s eyes narrowed, heaving a sigh of relief.

He had been waiting for this moment, for when the Iaspi Leopardi used its skill.

The might of a nuclear weapon never lay after the explosion, but before.

The Iaspi Leopardi’s fire tornado skill was like its nuclear weapon. If it held it in and did not use it, Zhang Che would still be apprehensive of it, afraid that he would be caught in the destruction if he was careless.

However, now that it had used its skill, naturally Zhang Che wouldn’t worry any more.

Zhang Che gave out an order with his will. The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s body suddenly wound up. An extremely dark and cold aura burst forth, and he opened his mouth wide. A wave of deep blue darkfiend cold energy gushed out like a raging river, surging towards the Iaspi Leopardi.

At this moment, the latter’s fire tornado was sweeping towards the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus at great speed.

However, the Iaspi Leopardi was finally flustered when the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s Darkfiend Cold Energy Wave swept directly toward it. It no longer cared about the approaching Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus and manipulated the fire tornado towards the wave of darkfiend cold energy.

Rumble!

The two opposing elements clashed. The flow of elements in the air erupted, giving birth to a violent and chaotic windstorm, sweeping up all the surrounding dust and rocks, and sending them in every direction.

The two powerful beasts’ skills ended at the same time, cancelling one another out.

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew towards the Iaspi Leopardi, seemingly swimming in the air. He breathed out stream after stream of darkfiend cold air at the latter again, suppressing the fire elemental storm to the extreme, while at the same time limiting the space it could fly in.

After all, the Iaspi Leopardi could only ride the wind elements to fly for a short period of time. Facing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, who was born able to fly, naturally it didn’t dare take to the skies.

With the fire tornado failing to deal any damage to its enemies, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s attribute a natural counter to it, and the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus rapidly closing in on it, the exotic beast finally felt fear for its life. It turned around nimbly and escaped towards the cave.

“It actually lost!” Liu Gang and the others exchanged looks in surprise. They truly didn’t expect Zhang Che’s subdued beasts to defeat such a powerful exotic beast, forcing it to retreat into its nest.

At this moment, Zhang Che made his move.

Wearing the Purple Crystal Armor, wielding the Scarlet Meteorite Huge Sword, Zhang Che suddenly burst into motion, giving chase with long, urgent steps.

-Heavens, are you serious?!-

The three of them never imagined that Zhang Che would actually make a move personally. Did he think he could claim victory against that terrifying beast by himself?

“Zhang-shao, don’t chase a cornered enemy!” Liu Gang hurriedly yelled out, his eyes wide. If Zhang Che were to die here, the three of them could forget about returning to Bei Du. They’d have to wander around the world, hiding as far away as they could.

However, it seemed as if Zhang Che didn’t hear him at all. Not only did he not stop, he even increased his speed, running straight towards the Iaspi Leopardi in a determined manner looking like a human-shaped purple tortoise.

The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus was now in front of the Iaspi Leopardi. He showed no fear towards the burning aura around the latter and directly opened his mouth to lunge at the latter’s neck.

The Iaspi Leopardi was furious. Even though it could no longer use any skills, as a high-tier exotic beast, how could it be afraid of the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ attack? It directly raised its claws, throwing them at the oncoming face.

Pa!

A loud crack of impact rang out. The Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus couldn’t dodge in time. His head was smacked away, his huge body spun half around, nearly falling to the ground.

A few clear marks had appeared on the black scales of the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ wounded face.

It had to be mentioned that the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus was a ferocious beast whose forte was its raw strength and defense. His opponent, the Iaspi Leopardi, not only towered over him in strength, it even left such deep marks on his shockingly tough scales. It went to show that the strength of a high-tier exotic beast was indeed extraordinarily high.

As Zhang Che charged in, he cried out, “Hanming!”

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon quickly swooped down. Taking advantage of the opening when the Iaspi Leopardi stopped in place and struck the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus, his long, slender body coiled around it, locking the exotic beast in position.

Sizzle..!

The Iaspi Leopardi tried its hardest to struggle itself free. The flames of the fire elemental storm around its body were directly applied to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s body, producing wisps of deep blue mist.

At this moment, Zhang Che was finally upon the exotic beast.

“Hya!”

Under the effects of the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus’ Amplified Strength Halo, Zhang Che’s strength was increased by thirty percent. He bent his knees and launched himself forward like a purple cannonball, drawing a splendid scarlet-black streak of sword light in the air with the Scarlet Meteorite Huge Sword.

The Iaspi Leopardi was astonished. It struggled desperately, but was unable to break free from the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s bindings in time. It could only watch as the streak of scarlet-black sword light swept across its neck.

After activating the Scarlet Meteorite Huge Sword’s Unparalleled Sharpness skill, it could penetrate all defenses below divine-tier. Even though the Iaspi Leopardi’s entire body was covered in a layer of dark green scales, it was sliced apart easily like tofu, unable to withstand the slightest cut.

Chi..!

A soft sound rang out. As blood sprayed out, the ferocious head of the Leopardi flew through the air.

“This… how is this possible!?” Liu Gang and the others’ eyes nearly popped out from their sockets, their faces looking as if they had encountered a ghost.

That exotic beast was so powerful, and yet it was decapitated by Zhang Che with a single slash!

Zhang Che recalled his purple crystal armor, the Scarlet Meteorite Huge Sword pointing at the ground at a slant. He watched calmly as the two sections of the Iaspi Leopardi’s corpse turned into streaks of light at the same time, quickly compressing into a shiny golden card.

The seven-star gold-quality dual-elemental exotic beast, the Iaspi Leopardi, lost its life, just like that!

This was the first powerful exotic beast Zhang Che had personally slain!

Of course, him cutting down the Iaspi Leopardi was largely because of his planning.

First, he used the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus to force the Iaspi Leopardi to exhaust its ability of temporary flight. Afterwards, he commanded the Unicorn to strike it down with its Lightning of Purification, pressing it into using its fire tornado skill angrily, and neutralized that with the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s own skill.

After this series of actions played out, the Iaspi Leopardi had no choice but to retreat to the cave. Zhang Che then used the Steel-Armored Tyrannosaurus as bait, making the exotic beast stop in place for a moment, allowing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to coil himself around it.

All this proceeded smoothly under Zhang Che’s command.

In the end, it ended with Zhang Che’s elegant slash, decapitating the Iaspi Leopardi.

The entire process took less than a minute from start to end!
