The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

Chapter 878: Chapter 872: Jumping Clown

“Indeed, being able to cultivate the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart to the fifth level at such a young age, you may directly pass the Trial of Rhyme.”

The Fire Tailed Emperor Tiger sized up David Jones with eyes showing satisfaction.

The content of the Trial of Rhyme was very straightforward.

To comprehend the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart on the Azure Dragon Stele and cultivate this difficult technique that had stumped countless powerhouses to the third level where one could grasp the rhyme of the Azure Dragon was to pass the trial.

Clearly, David Jones had already met the assessment requirements and there was no need to waste time in front of the Azure Dragon Stele.

As the Fire Tailed Emperor Tiger’s voice fell, the remaining Beastmasters who were still deep in meditation and unable to succeed all opened their eyes and turned their gazes towards David Jones, showing a look of surprise.

Their Arcane Stars had long reached Class VIII, with solid foundations, but it was still extremely tough to perceive the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart.

Not to mention cultivating the Black Dragon Map to the third level, there were many powerful individuals present who hadn’t even managed to reach the second level.

In that instant, David Jones became the focal point of all the powerhouses present.

“The rumors are true, David Jones’ monstrous Talent can indeed look down upon the heroes within the Flowery Kingdom.”

Philip Wade, a Legendary Beast Tamer from Wind Academy, had a flicker in his eyes.

There were many prodigies in the Way of Beast Tamer, and it was through opportunity and Talent that he had surpassed most of the Beastmasters among the Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five to become a Legendary Deity at Wind Academy.

Yet even he sat fruitlessly in front of the Azure Dragon Stele for a day and a night, brimming with confidence.

David Jones was able to cultivate the Taikoo Black Dragon Chart to the fifth level at the prime of his life, truly deserving the title of the Flowery Kingdom’s once in a millennium prodigy!

Just as Fire Tailed Emperor Tiger was about to open the Space channel, a Legendary Beast Tamer suddenly appeared before it.

It was a strong figure with silvery snow-like hair and profound facial features, atop his head perched a light and elegant deep purple butterfly.

The wings of this butterfly seemed to devour all light, forming a layer of dazzling, dappled shadows on its surface.

“Excuse me, are you David Jones, the strongest Deity recently reputed in the outside world?” the silver-haired powerhouse asked.

“Pet Name”: Phantom Flutter Butterfly

“Pet Type”: Light, Dark

“Species Level”: Emperor

“Grade”: Class VIII upper-level

“Species Skill”: Phantom Butterfly Dance, Dark Strike, Double Counterstrike, Light-Dark Cut, Legend Realm

“Pet Profile”: A mysterious butterfly known to control both Light and Dark attributes, hailed by the people as half-angel, half-demon.

In battle, it is as gentle as a healing angel, yet as fierce as a demon, a cryptic and enormously difficult to master Emperor Beast.

David Jones paused for a moment, then replied with a smile, “Yes, how may I assist you?”

The Phantom Flutter Butterfly was a unique Emperor Pet of Aurora Academy; unless mistaken, the person should belong to the high ranks of Aurora Academy.

“Kenneth Blarice, Aurora Academy Beastmaster Department Head. There’s a rumor that you are the strongest Deity in the Flowery Kingdom, a claim I cannot agree with, thus I’ve come to seek some guidance.”

At these words, the surrounding Legendary Beast Tamers were all reinvigorated.

That’s right, how could the title of the strongest Deity in the Flowery Kingdom be borne by a greenhorn? Wouldn’t that suggest that all the domestic Deities were no match for a twenty-year-old rookie Beastmaster?

Kenneth Blarice’s reputation in the Beast Master World was tremendous, and his strength among the Legendary Deities was exceptional too; with his Phantom Flutter Butterfly, he had contended with a Celestial Beastmaster, lasting dozens of rounds before being defeated due to exhaustion.

If he were to make a move, perhaps he could defeat David Jones and let the world know that David Jones’ title of strongest Deity was nothing but a rumor.

“Sorry, I have other matters to attend to.”

David Jones had no intention of accepting the challenge.

Although Kenneth Blarice was powerful, he was nowhere near Pratt Goldsmith, not worth stopping for.

If every Legendary Beast Tamer were to challenge him like Kenneth Blarice, wouldn’t he end up with no time for cultivation?

“You don’t dare to accept the challenge, are you planning to run away in disgrace?”

Watching David Jones’ retreating figure, Kenneth Blarice mocked him.

“Tap.”

“`

“Tap.”

“Tap.”

David Jones continued to walk towards the space portal, ignoring the other’s attempt to provoke him and even too lazy to respond verbally.

This act of ignoring his opponent was a surprise to the Trainers present, and even Kenneth Blarice felt an unspoken insult.

He was being completely disregarded by a junior!

“Very well, then let me personally experience the strength of the strongest Deity. Be careful, Dragon Subduing Deity!” As Kenneth spoke to himself, he decisively ordered the Phantom Flutter Butterfly to attack.

A title of the strongest allowed no retreat!

He had given David multiple warnings—if David insisted on avoiding battle and leaving, he would have to leave behind the glory of the strongest name.

“Light-Dark Cut!”

The Phantom Flutter Butterfly could use the conflict and repulsion between the Light and Dark Arcane Forces to form light and dark blades that increased in power geometrically and could then use them to slash at the opponent at extreme speed as it shuttled through space.

If one lacked enough information about the Phantom Flutter Butterfly and did not react in time, even a Class VIII Emperor Beast could suffer a first strike fatal wound under the Light-Dark Cut.

Kenneth actually wanted to see how David would block this powerful and seemingly unblockable attack.

Under the gaze of all, David didn’t even turn his head, as if the attack behind him was nothing but a gentle breeze.

Such an understated demeanor couldn’t help but cause some Legendary figures to reveal looks of surprise and doubt.

Without dodging, counterattacking, or defending, was David confident that he possessed overwhelming power over Kenneth, or did he believe Kenneth wouldn’t dare to wound him?

The Legendary figures present thought it was the latter.

Though Aurora Academy was one of the eight great Beast Master academies, it couldn’t be compared with the high and mighty Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five.

If Rosewood College took offense over this matter, Kenneth’s position as head of the Beastmaster Department would surely be stripped down completely.

Meanwhile, a hint of hesitation flashed in Kenneth’s eyes.

Just as everyone suspected, he indeed didn’t dare to injure David under the watchful eyes of the public.

His command for the Phantom Flutter Butterfly to unleash the skill was merely to force David to accept battle and personally experience the strength of the strongest Deity, not to offend him to death.

With this thought, Kenneth’s gaze fixed intently on the Light-Dark blades moving through space.

Realizing that David had yet to direct his Pet to resist, he sighed inwardly, acknowledging his plot had failed and wanted to telepathically tell the Phantom Flutter Butterfly to cancel its attack, and then apologize.

“Eek!”

Anger flashed in Rainbow’s eyes.

David could tolerate the impudence of the weak, but Rainbow couldn’t tolerate an ant daring to strike at David.

In that instant, the Light-Dark Cut that was about to reach David seemed to meet some horrific entity, and without causing even a ripple, it was utterly annihilated, as if it had never existed.

This chilling scene directly shocked many of the powerful onlookers.

“Tap.”

“Tap.”

“Tap.”

At this moment, David’s steps were still steady as before, but to Kenneth, they felt utterly different from before.

“Impossible, David hasn’t yet become a Class VIII Legend, how can the gap be so vast!”

The next second, Kenneth and the Phantom Flutter Butterfly, unable to accept reality, locked eyes with Lolo.

Rumble!

An indescribable weight suddenly pressed down on Kenneth and the Phantom Flutter Butterfly, and in an instant, the world seemed to fall into dead silence.

Their bodies were trembling.

Their spirits were trembling as well.

Because they had encountered an indescribable terror, a despair as if the entire world was bearing down on them!
