两男一女的双龙挺进

Jack nodded with a serious expression. "I\'m very sure of this; if we want to find that Beast, we must find that family."

Unlike Nox, Jack had a lead on how to find the elemental beast. It was the reason he had come to this city straight after leaving the tunnels—because the elemental beast had been spotted here by a family. However, not many people knew this.

In fact, those who knew about the beast\'s location had purposely kept it a secret to send their competitors on a wild goose chase while they took their time to search for the beast.

Unfortunately for them, Jack had caught wind of the information.

Though they knew the exact location of the beast, it was still very difficult to track it down because this coastal city was humongous, with a total of twenty districts. It was believed to be the second largest city after the royal capital.

The people Jack was looking for were the family that had first spotted the beast; he hoped to bribe them to point out the general direction the beast had gone and its appearance so that he could plan his next move.

"I bet it\'d be very difficult for anyone to resist 20 golden coins," Jack thought. Coming from an extremely powerful family, twenty gold coins weren\'t significant in his eyes, but he was certain they could feed a family for a very long time if spent wisely.

\\\\[Dodge!\\\\] Suddenly, Jack heard a familiar voice scream in his head. He felt a fierce whooshing sound beneath him, and his hair stood on end.

Danger!

Quickly, the youth nimbly dove out of the way. Behind him, the ground exploded with a thunderous sound, sending fragments of ice everywhere. The impact of the explosion also sent the other Awakened who were surrounding Jack flying in all directions.

Standing in the middle of the crater with bare hands was none other than the red-skinned girl, her sword unsheathed.

Jack quickly summoned his odachi when he saw the girl. He had not met her before or recognized her as a member of any of the groups in Snowhelm. However, the fact that she attacked him meant she was an enemy—not just any enemy, but a powerful one at that. The Awakened also rushed over, surrounding the red-skinned girl from all sides, their weapons drawn.

"Good thinking, speedy," the girl stated. "One second late and I would\'ve been standing on your crushed head... as expected from someone of that family."

"You know, it\'s not nice telling me how you would have crushed my head," Jack sneered as blue electricity snaked through his sword. "Which group are you from?"

"I\'m not obliged to answer that," the red-skinned girl said, kicking the ground as she exploded forward. "...but what you should know is that you or none of the others will leave this city alive!"

In the Warrior Pride Dojo,

"Bestow!" Nox placed his hands and thirteen. The panda was very familiar with this feeling; after all, he had felt it once before in the dimensional rift four years ago.

The panda remembered that he had gotten an incredible skill after experiencing this feeling. Would he get another powerful skill again? The panda thought, his little heart beating wildly in anticipation.

"Hahahaha, you\'re not done yet?" Master Parker laughed when he heard Nox. "Lad, your panda is very talented, I\'ll give you that. But if you continue, you\'ll only embarrass yourself and the panda, so I suggest you hand over the coins and go home."

These words came from the bottom of Master Parker\'s heart. The panda was very promising, and even the kid seemed to be talented, as he was already level 14 at such a young age. He didn\'t want such a promising duo to suffer further humiliation.

Nox pulled out his Kasaka Fanged Dagger and Python Shield. "Though they\'re just basic items, they should still cost around twenty golden coins. I\'m betting these."

Magic items were very expensive and rare to come by, as not all beasts in the dimension dropped them. Even the lowest tier cost a lot, and seeing two before his eyes, Parker\'s eyes glowed with greed.

"Fine then!" he agreed. "But don\'t blame me if you lose."

Thirteen confidently marched to the front before all the onlookers and martial artists who were watching him with ridicule in their eyes.

"You guys might want to shift back a little," Nox warned the disciples.

"The arrogance! Even Brutus\'s attack didn\'t reach all this side! Is he looking down on us?" one disciple frowned with visible anger on his face.

"Can you believe this? He thinks he can surpass Brutus\'s attack?" another disciple sneered. "I\'ve never seen anyone as arrogant as this kid and his panda."

The disciples continued to mock and ridicule Nox and Thirteen, their voices filled with disdain and disbelief. Master Parker, however, remained silent, his eyes fixed on the magic items Nox had placed on the line. He couldn\'t afford to lose this bet, not when the reward was so tempting.

Nox didn\'t comment any longer. Anything that happened from here on was no longer his fault; after all, he had warned them.

Thirteen, unaffected by the disciples\' jeers, stood confidently at the front, his eyes shining with fierce determination.

"Thirteen, show them what you\'re capable of," Nox whispered.

With a nod, Thirteen charged forward, his paws glowing with a fierce blue light. The air around him began to distort, and the ground trembled beneath his feet.

"What is he doing?" one of the disciples whispered, their expression turning to concern.

Even Parker and Brutus were alarmed.

"Wasn\'t that the first step of the Dragon Fury Technique?" Another disciple whispered. "The only difference is that instead of the entire body glowing, it\'s only the panda\'s palm...but that doesn\'t necessarily mean it\'s a different skill."

Just as Brutus had done, the panda started to strike the air with his paws. No sound came out, but it felt as if he had struck an invisible target, and the air around him erupted in a kaleidoscope of colors—blue, green, purple, and now, golden and crimson energy trails merged into a massive vortex.

"Five energies! Isn\'t it three?" Master Parker\'s breath quickened. What made the Dragon Fury Technique powerful was the energy trail in the air; it was what enabled Brutus to unleash such devastating attacks. One color could only cause minor damage, but combining three at once could cause a powerful blast.

Brutus had taken years to successfully summon all three energies, but this panda... this panda had summoned five! How was this even possible? The technique strictly required three colors.

Suddenly, Parker understood the reason Nox was telling the others to shift back.

Brutus\'s eyes snapped open, his face filled with shock. Had Master Parker lied to him about the number of energies in the Dragon Fury Technique?

Thirteen continued his assault, the vortex growing larger and more intense. The ground trembled, and the sound of his punches started to resemble thunder.

"No... no way! He\'s surpassing Brutus\'s attack! This is... this is insane!" The disciples widened their eyes as they stepped back.

However, it was too late.

They were all sent flying, their bodies crashing into the surrounding buildings as the vortex imploded, releasing a shockwave that shattered windows and sent debris flying everywhere. A huge crater several meters deep razed through the courtyard, and the Warrior\'s Pride Dojo, which had stood for years, collapsed, raising a dust storm.

"Shit, Thirteen, let\'s get out of here before they kill us!" Nox shouted as he grabbed Thirteen and made a run for it after snatching the money pouch from a devastated Parker.

As they fled the scene, Parker\'s voice reverberated. "My precious dojo! Don\'t let them escape! Brat, you better get back here!"
