In a tall tower several hundred meters away from the Ten Beasts Cage.
Two elders stood by the window with incredulous looks on their faces.
They were the head of Xuanyuan Kingdom Beast Hall, Hall Master Xie Jiuchen, and Grand Elder Wei Yuqing.
As for Wei Youdao, he was the Grand Elder's grandson.
The first person Zhang Xuan looked for when he arrived at the Beast Hall was these two. Otherwise, he wouldn't have entered the Ten Beasts Cage and caused such a huge commotion.
"Did you see his movements clearly?"
Hall Master Xie Jiuchen asked.
"I... only saw him pummeling the Whirlwind Wolves. As for the rest... I didn't see anything!" Grand Elder Wei Yuqing's face reddened.
As a 3-star beast tamer, his cultivation had reached Zhizun realm pinnacle, and his eye of discernment was astounding... He should have been able to see through the other party's movements, but... just like the others, he was unable to see anything at all.
Just the thought of it made him feel awkward.
"His movements were extremely fast, so it's normal that you didn't see it! If I'm not wrong, not only did he use beast taming techniques, he used the means of a master teacher as well! "
Hall Master Xie Jiuchen said with a grim expression.
"Master teacher's means?" Grand Elder Wei Yuqing was perplexed.
"That's right. Even though charging forward to attack the Whirlwind Wolves might seem reckless, every single move he made was aimed at the meridian nodes of the Whirlwind Wolves. In just a few moves, he managed to loosen their meridians!"
Hall Master Xie Jiuchen explained. "This is similar to clearing the meridians of a fighter. Even though the cultivation of the Whirlwind Wolves remained the same, their fighting prowess rose significantly. It has always been troublesome for savage beasts to advance in their cultivation realms, and with just a few moves, they would naturally want to tame them! "
"This..." Wei Yuqing widened his eyes in shock.
Even though the other party made it sound simple, the difficulty was actually so great that it could be said to be impossible.
Every single Whirlwind Wolf had a different constitution, age, and physical condition. Naturally, the meridian nodes of the Whirlwind Wolves were different as well. Yet, to strike them accurately during battle...
What kind of eye of discernment was this?
How did he do it?
Even a 3-star master teacher or 4-star master teacher would find it difficult to accomplish this feat.
"Other than this, I can't think of any other possibility!" Hall Master Xie Jiuchen's eyes glowed, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Even though that young man isn't too old, he's definitely the most talented beast taming genius!"
"Yeah, let's see how he passes the second round!" Wei Yuqing nodded.
To be able to use a method that even a 3-star beast tamer like him was unable to see through, that fellow was indeed formidable.
"In the second round, there are three Tiger Head Beasts of the same level as him."
With a grim expression, Hall Master Xie Jiuchen said, "Unlike the Whirlwind Wolves, the Tiger Head Beasts prefer to attack individually. On top of that, their physical bodies and claws have already reached a level comparable to a Phantom weapon. It can be said that... they possess an invincible defense!"
"I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to use the previous method to hit the opponent's node."
"Indeed!" Elder Wei Yuqing nodded.
Since the hall master was able to see through it, it went without saying that Zhang Xuan was aware of it as well. While the four Whirlwind Wolves in the first trial were dangerous, as long as one dared to challenge the Ten Beasts Cage, there was a high chance that they would be able to clear it.
The true danger, the test of strength … had only just begun!
Even though savage beasts possessed superior physical strength, speed, and defense compared to humans, savage beasts were, after all, sentient beings. Furthermore, countless battle techniques had been passed down from generation to generation.
As long as one grasped a few formidable battle techniques, it was still possible for one to suppress four inferior savage beasts.
However … it would be difficult to suppress three savage beasts of the same cultivation realm.
Not to mention, they specialized in single-target offense and had an invincible defense.
It could be said that most challengers would fail in this round, and they would either die or be crippled.
"If you encounter any danger, just save them. It's rare to see such a genius in the Beast Hall!"
Hall Master Xie Jiuchen's appreciation for talent was piqued, and he instructed.
"Un!" Elder Wei Yuqing nodded.
Even he was unable to understand the beast taming method that Zhang Xuan used. Either this Zhang Xuan had an incredible teacher, or … he possessed unparalleled eye of discernment and talent.
Regardless of which it was, he was someone that the Beast Hall had to protect.
"Look, it's starting …"
While the duo was speaking, Zhang Xuan had already arrived before the three Tiger Head Beasts, and the battle was about to begin.
"The Tiger Head Beasts possess a powerful physical body, and they have an arrogant and suspicious personality. They aren't as easy to tame as the Whirlwind Wolves!"
Looking at the three massive Tiger Head Beasts before him, the information regarding them surfaced in his mind.
A mature Tiger Head Beast was three meters tall and five meters long. It possessed an invincible defense, and its massive body could already exert immense pressure on a cultivator. Needless to say, three of them simultaneously.
Usually, in a battle against humans, they wouldn't even need to use any moves. Just by charging forward, they would be able to kill their opponents on the spot.
However, this didn't matter to Zhang Xuan at all.
Even though his cultivation was only at Zongshi realm pinnacle, his true fighting prowess was on par with a Zhizun realm intermediate stage expert. Three Tiger Head Beasts didn't mean much to him.
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan activated his consciousness, and inscriptions appeared in his eyes.
The appearance of the three massive Tiger Head Beasts immediately changed. Their muscles, bone structure, acupoints, and the crux of their problems … All of these appeared in his eyes.
Eye of Insight!
After reaching the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy, this unique skill of a master teacher had been upgraded. Not only was it able to see through the flaws of others, it was also able to see through more problems.
In front of others, these three tiger-headed beasts were awe-inspiring, but in his eyes, they were full of loopholes, full of problems.
"Let's begin, let's end this quickly! So what if they aren't easy to tame? My goal isn't to tame them! "
With a smile, Zhang Xuan stepped forward.
His goal was to clear the Ten Beasts Cage, not to tame savage beasts. There was no point in taming too many savage beasts.
On the contrary, they might even linger around him like the Whirlwind Wolves, refusing to leave. That would be disastrous.
Roar!
Stepping forward, Zhang Xuan stepped into the territory of the Tiger Head Beasts. Amidst their roars, the three massive fellows surrounded him.
"The Tiger Head Beasts have an invincible defense. We're going to be in for a tough fight this time …"
Wei Youdao narrowed his eyes.
"Indeed!" Jiang Nanping nodded. "Let's see if his attacks can break through the other party's defense. If he can't, only death awaits him …"
Peng peng peng peng!
Before Wei Youdao could finish his words, the human and the three tigers had already clashed with one another.
"Why … is he attacking the abdomen of the Tiger Head Beast? This is bad! "Jiang Nanping's face warped.
"Unlike other savage beasts, the Tiger Head Beast's defense is at its abdomen. It is intentionally exposing its abdomen to bait its opponent into attacking it …"
Wei Youdao's complexion turned awful as well.
Usually, the abdomen of a savage beast was the weakest due to its lack of cultivation. However … the Tiger Head Beast was different.
Compared to other savage beasts, its abdomen was innately tough and resilient.
This was precisely the reason why it would use its abdomen as bait to bait cultivators into attacking it. If one were to take the bait, wouldn't the other party be able to do anything to them?
Seeing how the young man tamed the Whirlwind Wolves so swiftly and viciously, Zhang Xuan thought that he must be extremely familiar with the habits of savage beasts. Why would he make such a basic mistake when facing the Tiger Head Beast?
Attacking the abdomen was equivalent to doing nothing. If the other party were to retaliate, you would be doomed!
"Look, the Tiger Head Beast is preparing to retaliate …"
Just when the duo was frowning, the man and beast below had already come into contact with one another.
Seeing that the fellow was indeed attacking its abdomen, the Tiger Head Beast's eyes glowed in excitement. It hooked its thick tail, intending to pull the young man over.
Yet, before it could reach the other party, the latter's fist had already landed on its abdomen.
Disdain and mockery surfaced in the Tiger Head Beast's eyes. Just as it was about to follow its original plan to knock the other party down, it heard a dull thud.
Peng!
An incomparably powerful force gushed into the other party's body through the other party's arm.
The Tiger Head Beast, which was still mocking the human for his foolishness, widened its eyes so much that they nearly popped out of their sockets. Its tongue hung out, and saliva dripped down from its mouth.
Following which, 'sou!'...
The massive five-meter-long body of the Tiger Head Beast was sent flying into the air and crashed head-on into the cage.
Peng!
A massive tiger silhouette appeared on the metal cage.
Huala!
Falling from the sky, the Tiger Head Beast crashed onto the ground, raising a huge cloud of dust. It struggled for a moment before vomiting profusely. It tried to get up, but its abdomen was indescribable, and no matter how hard it tried, it was unable to stand up.
"What?"
"He struck the Tiger Head Beast's strongest point with a single punch, causing it to be unable to even crawl?"
"This … this …"
In an instant, the entire spectator stand fell silent.
The Tiger Head Beast was known for its invincible defense. Under normal circumstances, a human's strength would only be able to tickle it. Yet, the other party nearly died from a single punch...
How did he do it?
Are you sure that this is just a punch and not the kick of an elephant?
"It's the Heaven's Path Fist Art!"
Amidst the crowd, Liu Yang clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes reddened.
This was the Heaven's Path Fist Art that his teacher had imparted to him. Even though it was identical to the one he was using, there was a world of difference between the might of the two.
The Zongshi realm pinnacle Tiger Head Beast was sent flying in a single move, and it immediately felt dizzy. Even a Zhizun realm primary stage expert would be unable to withstand the might of that move!
"Looks like I'll have to cultivate diligently in the future …" Liu Yang made up his mind.
"Roar …"
Ignoring the astonishment of the crowd, after sending a Tiger Head Beast flying with a single move, Zhang Xuan turned his gaze to the remaining two.
It would have been one thing if he hadn't looked at them, but when his gaze swept across them, he saw the mouths of those two fellows twitching, and they hurriedly retreated.
Even though savage beasts weren't as intelligent as humans, they weren't fools either.
The one from before was the strongest among them, and yet … it was sent flying with a single punch, vomiting profusely. From the looks of it, it seemed like it would die at any moment. How could they possibly withstand it?
"Don't be afraid. Let me punch you once, and we'll be done with it. Otherwise, if you don't fall, I won't be able to pass the challenge …"
Seeing the savage beasts, known for their ferocity, retreat in fear, Zhang Xuan was speechless. Clenching his fists tightly, he beckoned.
Padah! Padah!
Right after Zhang Xuan said those words, the sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard. Following which, the two imposing Tiger Head Beasts fell to the ground simultaneously. Their limbs were facing the sky, their tongues were sticking out, and saliva was flowing down from their mouths.
"…" Zhang Xuan.
"…" The crowd.
(Tiger Head Beast: It must be hard for me to lie down. Where's my Monthly Pass?)
