I Let You Manage the Beast Taming Arena, Now Everyone Became Divine Beasts?

Just as the umpire, Hash, had observed earlier, at that moment, Giles was frowning slightly as he looked at the Leaf-eared Cat, which was rapidly shuttling through the bushes.

However, he still did not let the Metal-feathered Eagle, which had been hovering above the arena, do anything.

In actuality, when Giles realized that Annie had gotten the Leaf-eared Cat to begin its continuous acceleration through the bushes, he had subconsciously thought that Annie was finally going to let the Leaf-eared Cat attack the Metal-feathered Eagle.

However, to Giles’ surprise, the Leaf-eared Cat, which was shuttling through the bushes, simply waited for an opportunity.

Furthermore, the spiritual energy and physical strength consumed by employing this method was much greater than before.

Hence, Giles’ brows knitted together in displeasure.

Actually, Giles didn’t even realize it himself.

Ever since the start of this ability evaluation, he, who had returned to the battlefield after many days, had already subconsciously placed himself in the position of Gym Leader of Starlux Gym.

Hence, in Giles’ opinion, as the challenger, Annie did not seem to regard the evaluation as a challenge even though she had said at the start that she and the Leaf-eared Cat would give it their all.

This was because the suggestion Giles had given Annie was a reminder and guidance from him, the Gym Leader of Starlux Gym, to the challenger.

In his suggestion, he had clearly reminded Annie that his Metal-feathered Eagle only needed to exert a little of its physical strength to maintain a relatively safe flight height.

Therefore, in the upcoming battle, it was best not to let the Leaf-eared Cat use its innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature’.

This was because it would only unnecessarily waste the spiritual energy of the Leaf-eared Cat.

However, Annie clearly did not listen to his suggestion.

Or rather, Annie might not have understood his reminder.

Right now, not only did she let the Leaf-eared Cat expend its spiritual energy continuously by activating its innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature’,

but she had also made the Leaf-eared Cat accelerate and shuttle back and forth between the bushes.

She was trying to use this method that wasted spiritual energy and physical strength in exchange for the possibility of the Metal-feathered Eagle revealing its flaws.

However, the Metal-feathered Eagle, which was flying above the arena, had actually spotted the whereabouts of the Leaf-eared Cat.

Giles, who had placed himself in the position of the Gym Leader of Starlux Gym, could not possibly tell Annie directly that “My Metal-feathered Eagle can actually spot the Leaf-eared Cat moving through the bushes.”

This was because the Beast-taming Gym Leader’s guidance to the challenger during battle might affect the final outcome of the battle.

Therefore, the Beast Tamer Association had explicitly stipulated rules in the management of the Beast-taming Gym and Gym Leader.

When the Beast-taming Gym Leader fought the challenger, he could not directly reveal the abilities of his spirit beast in his guidance to the challenger.

At most, they could only advise the challenger to give up on their current tactics by making suggestions.

The reason the Beast Tamer Association had imposed such a restriction to the Beast-taming Gym Leader during battle was also to allow the challenger to learn how to improvise on the spot during the battle.

Through this method, they would grow rapidly in battle.

If the Beast-taming Gym Leader was allowed to remind the challenger directly, there would be no such learning effect.

Looking at the Leaf-eared Cat shuttling through the bushes and gradually increasing its speed to its limit, Giles, who was frowning slightly, sighed helplessly to himself.

Hah, why waste your spiritual energy and physical strength on these useless tasks?

I’ve already reminded you not to let the Leaf-eared Cat activate its innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature’.

Furthermore, some of the spectators have also brought up that the combat effectiveness rank of the Leaf-eared Cat is three ranks higher than the Metal-feathered Eagle.

Annie can totally let the Leaf-eared Cat use its advantage of a higher combat effectiveness rank and directly attack the Metal-feathered Eagle that is hovering in the air.

It can force the Metal-feathered Eagle to give up its midair-combat advantage.

The only way is to forcefully drag the Metal-feathered Eagle onto the ground where the Leaf-eared Cat is best at fighting.

In this way, the Leaf-eared Cat wins in the fastest way whilst consuming the least amount of spiritual energy and physical strength!

After Giles was adopted by the previous gym leader of Starlux Gym, he grew up in Starlux Gym.

Although he had never contracted a spirit beast over the past twenty years, Giles, who had grown up watching the battles between Beast Tamers and Starlux Gym, had already watched more than ten thousand matches.

Furthermore, as he had never contracted with a spirit beast, he often simulated spirit beast battles in his mind.

For example, how spirit beasts should fight in different environments.

Especially during the nights after watching Beast Tamers challenge Starlux Gym, Giles would even dream that he was the Gym Leader of Starlux Gym who had accepted a challenge from a Beast Tamer.

After he won as the Gym Leader of Starlux Gym, he would change his identity and become the Beast Tamer who challenged Starlux Gym.

After commanding his spirit beast to challenge Starlux Gym countless times, he would eventually win.

Unfortunately, whenever he was about to accept the badge from Starlux Gym, he would be woken up by his Sister, Alice, whom he had grown up with.

However, this habit of simulating spirit-beast battles in his mind also allowed Giles to learn to think about how to fight from his opponent’s perspective.

In Giles’ opinion, in order to defeat him quickly, his opponent would definitely search for his shortcomings and weaknesses during the battle.

In that case, as long as he could make up for his own shortcomings, or use his shortcomings to his advantage, he could obtain victory!

Therefore, the suggestion that Giles had made to Annie was also him thinking from Annie’s perspective about how to let the Leaf-eared Cat win the Metal-feathered Eagle more quickly.

However, after sighing inwardly, Giles changed his mind.

He felt that Annie’s decision was also reasonable.

Due to the fact that most of their skills involved tree branches and leaves, the attacks of plant-type spirit beasts were not that strong.

Furthermore, his Metal-feathered Eagle was a metal-type spirit beast that could restrain plant-type spirit beasts.

If the Metal-feathered Eagle, which had activated its innate skill ‘Metalize’, had the same combat effectiveness rank as the Leaf-eared Cat, in that case, the attacks launched by the Leaf-eared Cat using its plant-type skill would not be able to deal any effective damage to the Metal-feathered Eagle. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Annie had made her current decision because her attributes were limited.

Clearly, Annie knew very well that her Leaf-eared Cat had an advantage over the Metal-feathered Eagle in terms of combat effectiveness rank.

Hence, she had been waiting for the Metal-feathered Eagle to make a mistake, planning to let the Leaf-eared Cat seize the opportunity to win with one strike.

However, what she did not know was that in this current situation, the fastest way to win whilst consuming the least amount of spiritual energy, was not to rely on winning with just one strike. Instead it should be a drawn-out battle that seemed to consume more energy and was even slower but with more proactive attacks.

This was the only way to force his Metal-feathered Eagle to give up its advantage of midair combat.

Furthermore, his Metal-feathered Eagle could also observe the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat in the air.

At this rate, before the Metal-feathered Eagle showed any flaws, the Leaf-eared Cat’s spiritual energy and physical strength would be exhausted.

At the thought of this, Giles shifted his gaze from the bushes on the ground to Annie, who was standing across from him.

Unexpectedly, he could sense a tinge of happiness from Annie’s expression and gaze.

Hmm? Did I miss out on something when I was thinking from another perspective?

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Just as Giles was feeling puzzled about this, four dark green spiritual energies in the shape of leaves flew out from the bushes towards the Metal-feathered Eagle that was flying above the arena like flying daggers!

Furthermore, the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers did not fly out from the same bush.

Instead, they flew out from the bushes in all four directions in about a second.

The four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that the Leaf-eared Cat threw were extremely fast. By the time Giles noticed them, the distance between the Green Leaf Flying Daggers and the Metal-feathered Eagle was less than a meter.

At that moment, the Metal-feathered Eagle, which had been flying at a high altitude in the air, seemed to have gotten dizzy from the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat. In the face of the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers, it did nothing.

However, if anyone paid attention, they would notice that the Metal-feathered Eagle’s gaze was unusually calm.

After two weeks of target training, the Metal-feathered Eagle swiftly captured the different trajectories of the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers in less than a second.

Giles’ command rang out in the Metal-feathered Eagle’s mind, “Metal-feathered Eagle, spread open your wings! Fire your ‘Feather Arrows’ to shoot down the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers!”
