15: I didn't pay much attention just now, what did you say before?

"Ye Feng~ Ye Feng~ Ye Feng!"

"Ye Feng!"

"Ye Feng!"

All the spectators at the scene, as well as the eliminated students, spontaneously began to chant Ye Feng's name. A uniform, synchronized sound suddenly echoed in the air.

"Brother Yang, I support you in spirit!"

"Brother Yang, go for it!"

The few voices supporting Zhang Yang were quickly assimilated by the wave of sound, making Zhang Yang's already gloomy face look like it was about to drip water.

Below the arena, Zhang Yang's father looked livid. If not for the second uncle sent by the family standing beside him, he probably would have started cursing out loud.

"Zhang Qing, did you give the item to Yang'er?" an old man with slightly greying hair asked.

"Second Uncle, I have already given it to him!"

"Good. Since you've given it to him, that's enough to turn the tables!"

The old man was from the main city, though within the main city, they belonged to the third-rate factions.

Therefore, when the head of the Zhang family learned that their descendant living outside had become an A-grade genius, he was very happy and immediately sent his second younger brother to the satellite city with a beast and treasures.

The goal was to ensure Zhang Yang could qualify for the semi-finals. Once he performed well in the semi-finals, their family would then use the strength of the entire clan to push Zhang Yang in front of the Star Academy admissions officer.

For a plan that directly affected the lifeblood of the entire family, the head of the Zhang family had naturally devised a foolproof strategy.

On the arena, Zhang Yang looked at Ye Feng opposite him and directly summoned his beast, the seven-star potential Flame Lion King.

Ye Feng also summoned his Titan Giant Ape.

[Beast: Flame Lion King]

[Attribute: Fire]

[Potential: ★★★★★★★]

[Cultivation: Silver Realm Level 6]

[Skills: Air Walk, Flame Tornado, Flame Lion King Roar, Flame Shockwave, Flame Protective Shield, Lion King Flame Needle]

[Pros: Extremely high attack power, not inferior to most seven-and-a-half-star potential beasts, can serve as a mount for a Beast Master, can fly, the flame shroud also provides decent defense]

[Cons: Easily countered by Water, Ice, and Lightning attribute beasts]

[Ultimate Evolution Path: Golden Lion King ★★★★★★★★★]

[Required Special Item: Golden Flame Heart]

[Golden Lion King: A powerful beast with Gold and Fire attributes, combining offense and defense, extremely formidable. Its fire attribute is stronger than the Flame Lion King, and the addition of the Gold attribute enhances the Golden Lion King's attack and defense capabilities. Possesses the special skill Lion King Golden Body]

Under the Soul Eye, every attribute of the Flame Lion King was clear to Ye Feng.

"The match begins!" The referee blew the whistle for the match.

"Ye Feng, sorry about this, but I'm taking first place in the Jiangcheng Peak Tournament!"

The next second, a cold smile appeared on Zhang Yang's face as he spoke domineeringly.

"Flame Lion King, Air Walk, Flame Tornado!"

Instantly, Zhang Yang had the Flame Lion King take to the air. He knew the Titan Giant Ape possessed a gravity skill, but a seven-star potential Titan Giant Ape could only exert a hundred times gravity.

Although this gravity was a very powerful skill for the Flame Lion King, after using that item, the Flame Lion King would be able to withstand it.

He absolutely had to win this final match today!

"Whoosh~" In an instant, a massive crimson tornado descended from the sky. The temperature around the arena rose instantly, causing the crowd of spectators to retreat repeatedly.

Only after retreating over a hundred meters did the temperature gradually return to normal!

"So strong. Is this the power of a seven-star potential beast? I heard this Flame Lion King is only at the Silver Realm. If it were at the Gold Realm or Platinum Realm, how strong would it be?"

"Not to mention anything else, just this single Flame Tornado—I don't think some low-potential Gold Realm beasts would even be able to block it!"

"That's right. It looks like this battle is a match between equals!"

On the other side, Ye Feng did not speak. A nine-star potential beast was different from those below nine stars; the former already possessed relatively high intelligence.

Or perhaps it could be said that a beast's intelligence changes with the increase in star level; the higher the star level and realm, the higher the intelligence, though the increase in intelligence is very slow.

It was only after a beast's potential evolved to nine stars that its intelligence made significant progress, allowing it to fight independently without needing to rely on a Beast Master's commands.

At this moment, watching the Flame Tornado descend from the sky, the Titan Giant Ape stomped its foot, and a massive stone spike suddenly erupted from the arena floor!

Immediately after, it punched the stone spike, breaking it off, grabbed the massive spike in its hand, and violently hurled it toward the Flame Tornado in the sky!

A sharp, piercing sound tore through the air, and in an instant, the two attacks collided!

"Boom!" Countless flames and stone fragments scattered everywhere. The other nine referees' expressions changed, and they rushed to the perimeter of the arena, manifesting their beasts to block the flying debris.

Meanwhile, a fierce look flashed in Zhang Yang's eyes. Since it had come to this, Ye Feng, don't blame me!

In an instant, the Flame Lion King's originally golden-red body in the sky turned blood-red, and even the Flame Lion King's eyes were covered in blood-red color!

This scene immediately shocked everyone present!

"What?!" Zhou Wenlong stood up directly, his face showing anger. Standing up with him was Gao Wenwu, the principal of Third High School, whose face wore the same expression.

"Berserk!"

"City Lord!" Gao Wenwu hurried to the first row!

"The Flame Lion King does not have the Berserk skill. Zhang Yang is definitely cheating!"

"I know. After the match ends, I will personally inspect it. If he really is cheating, I, the City Lord, will never show leniency!" A fierce glint flashed in Zhou Wenlong's eyes.

"Heh, Alchemy Master Kraul's Berserk Potion isn't something just anyone can detect. At the very least, experts below the King Realm cannot possibly detect it!"

"And once the effects of this potion wear off, even experts at the Heavenly Saint Realm won't be able to detect it!"

"This is the family's second contingency plan!" By the side of the arena, Zhang Qing's second uncle chuckled softly, his eyes full of contempt.

So what if he's a God-level Genius? In a backwater place like this, they probably haven't even heard of the name of the Berserk Potion.

On the other side, Zhang Yang laughed up at the sky, "Flame Lion King, Lion King Flame Needle!"

This was the Flame Lion King's strongest strike. He wouldn't give Ye Feng time to stall, after all, this Berserk Potion had a time limit!

On this side, Ye Feng still didn't make any move; it looked as if he had resigned himself to his fate!

But at this moment, the Titan Giant Ape standing beside him moved!

It slowly raised its right hand, then suddenly clenched it!

Instantly, a dark golden light flashed on its body, and a massive gravity field directly enveloped the Flame Lion King.

Skill: Infinite Gravity! One thousand times!

"Boom!" Immediately after, before the terrified eyes of the crowd, the Flame Lion King, which had been in the sky just a second ago, crashed violently into the ground like a giant boulder!

"Crack!" "Crack!" The clear sound of bones shattering echoed in the ears of everyone present!

Zhang Yang even felt as if his brain had been stirred by a stick, causing instant, excruciating pain.

"Ah!" A painful groan escaped from Zhang Yang's mouth!

"Um, I didn't quite catch that. What was it you said before?"

Ye Feng looked at Zhang Yang, who was rolling on the ground clutching his head, and asked slowly. He really hadn't heard Zhang Yang's words clearly before.

He couldn't just say, "The battle has started, you said 'stop,' but I didn't hear what you said, could you say it again?"
