Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Charles is My Apprentice!



Genosha and Kingston are two neighboring countries, and at their border, countless wars rage on, with Beast Masters spilling their blood there every year.

A small border region has buried the bodies of countless Beast Masters!

Yet, in Genosha Calivia, the lavish and decadent aristocratic families are completely indifferent.

In their eyes, even if all the warriors at the border were to die, it would not affect their quality of life at all.

Zane isn't the only one who thinks this way, the young men and women from other aristocratic families feel the same. They believe that war is just a matter for a small group of people, far removed from their lives.

"Warriors who defend their homes and country should not be humiliated like this!" Charles said, standing in front of David Zheng and addressing Zane.

Zane disdainfully brushed off nonexistent dust from his clothes. He turned his body and looked around at the people, speaking arrogantly, "So, what? Do you still want us to respect a soldier? He can't even beat you, he's just a useless waste!"

"In my eyes, Zane, you're the real waste!" Charles shot back without holding back. He was genuinely irritated with Zane, among everyone he had encountered, Zane was the most arrogant and conceited.

"You think I'm a waste? Hahaha, that's hilarious! What qualifications does a commoner like you have to call me a waste?" Zane tilted his head back, sneering at Charles with a sideways glance.

Charles calmly continued, "Why can't I say it? Just because you don't want others to speak doesn't mean it will hide the fact that you're a waste!"

"Enough! Charles, you've won the duel, so stop this nonsense." Lance Lin interrupted, his patience wearing thin.

He hadn't expected Charles to defeat David Zheng, the outcome was quite surprising.

But now, the orange-quality miracle drug and the rare orange-quality metal that Colton had would all belong to Charles.

In front of so many people, Lance Lin was filled with regret.

This wasn't how he had envisioned things, those two items were supposed to be given to Zane, but now they would all go to Charles.

Lance Lin kept a straight face as he turned to look at Colton.

At that moment, Colton was frowning and seemed a bit angry.

Lance Lin thought to himself that it must be because Charles's victory had ruined Colton's original plans, which was why he was so upset.

"Since the winner has been decided, the terms of the duel should also be fulfilled." Colton said, his gaze sweeping over the still arrogant Zane as he spoke slowly.

Zane froze for a moment upon hearing this.

Was he really expected to kneel and apologize to Charles, a commoner, in front of all the families of Genosha?

No way!

Just as Zane was at a loss for what to do, Charles didn't give him any more time to think. He directly said, "Zane, it's time for you to pay the price!"

"Wait, Charles, just take your victory and be done with it. The orange-quality miracle drug and the metal materials are already enough. Don't be unreasonable." said Lance Lin's younger brother, trying to persuade Charles.

After all, Zane is the son of Benson, and like the Robinson family, they are one of the prominent families in Genosha.

If Zane were to kneel and apologize here, it would be a disgrace for the Taylor family, and Benson would certainly not let it go!

Right now, the best option for Charles would be to forget the terms of the duel and act as if nothing had happened.

However, Charles responded firmly, "What do you mean by being unreasonable? Zane, do you really want to go back on your word in front of all these people?"

Standing in the middle of the clearing, Zane clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were fixed on Charles, and through gritted teeth, he said, "Charles! I am a member of the Taylor family, the future head of the Taylor family! What qualifications do you have to make me kneel and apologize to you?"

Zane wasn't the only one thinking this, Grace, standing beside the Grand Princess of Genosha, added, "This Charles really can't see reality. If he keeps pushing Zane like this, he will definitely be retaliated against by the Taylor family!"

Princess Rose nodded in agreement with Grace's words. Charles's earlier fight was indeed shocking, but his current behavior left her somewhat disappointed.

In Rose's view, Charles, with no connections or background, dared to continue pressuring Zane like this.

Clearly, he was short-sighted, only thinking of immediate satisfaction, without considering how he would face retaliation from the Taylor family in the future!

The other guests at the banquet began to murmur among themselves. "Why is Charles being so tough? Where does he get the confidence to treat Zane this way?"

"Yeah, is Charles not afraid of the Taylor family's retaliation at all?"

"I'm starting to wonder if Charles has lost his mind. Now that he's provoked the Taylor family, even if he's a genius in alchemy and forging, it won't help him!"

"As a commoner, he should be more cautious. With Charles acting like this, it's all over for him!"

Charles could naturally hear the discussions around him, but he didn't care at all.

Not to mention anything else, but Charles's teacher, Ezra, is an Level 8 Beast Master from Cyber Academy! He also possesses the mythical beast, the nine-tailed flame tiger!

In Genosha and Calivia, who could possibly have a stronger background than his?

Plus, his alchemy teacher is Colton, who is being courted by all the prominent families!

With those two backing him, as long as Charles doesn't kill Zane on the spot, he wouldn't have any issues!

"Zane, what you say must be followed through! You can't escape today, whatever happens, happens!" Charles had no intention of letting Zane off the hook.

Unexpectedly, Zane threatened, "Charles, I advise you to think this through. Otherwise, if something unfortunate happens to you later, it won't be good!"

"The future can wait, right now, I just need you to kneel and admit your mistake!" Charles's tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

"I am going to be the head of the Taylor family! Charles, you're just a commoner, you have no right to make me kneel!" As long as Zane refused to kneel, no one could force him to do so!

No one spoke again, and the entire banquet fell silent.

Colton slowly walked from beside Lance Lin into the open space. Though he wasn't particularly tall, he commanded the attention of everyone present.

The murmurs began again.

"Is this master-level alchemist going to persuade Charles as well?"

"I think so, after all, Zane represents the Taylor family, which is much more significant than Charles."

"That's not accurate. A master-level alchemist wouldn't be afraid of the Taylor family!"

"Regardless, having crossed the Taylor family, Charles will have a hard time in Calivia from now on!"

When Zane saw Colton approaching, he felt a bit confused, instinctively thinking that Colton was there to help him.

Before long, Colton walked past Zane and stood in front of Charles. He then turned to Zane and said, "Were you just asking what qualifications Charles has to make you kneel?"

Zane was stunned and instinctively nodded, he didn't understand the meaning behind Colton's words.

"Well then, let me tell you what qualifications Charles has. He is my apprentice, Colton. Is that enough?" As soon as Colton finished speaking,

the previously quiet banquet erupted into chaos.

Lance Lin's face was filled with shock, not just his, but also his brother Shane Line and the butler of the Robinson family. At that moment, all three of them shared the same thought:

it was over, everything was over!

Charles was actually Colton's apprentice!

The Robinson family had been trying to win over Colton, a master-level alchemist, yet they had been oppressing Charles and blaming him for everything that went wrong between Charles and Zane.

What was the point of that? Colton was surely very displeased with the Robinson family, after all the effort to invite a master-level alchemist to the banquet, everything they had done was now in vain!

Grace felt as if she had been frozen in place after hearing Colton's words, her mind racing with disbelief.

How could Charles possibly be taken on as an apprentice by a master-level alchemist?

It's important to note that a master-level alchemist is equivalent to an Level 8 Beast Master, and their status is even more significant than that of a typical Level 8 Beast Master.

She couldn't accept that a commoner like Charles now held a higher status than her, the personal disciple of the vice president of Aredale Academy!

Before anyone else could process this shocking news,

the key figure, Zane, was also in a tough spot, he had no idea what to do.

Should he continue to refuse to admit his mistake and offend a master-level alchemist, or should he choose to kneel and admit his fault, turning the Taylor family into a joke in Genosha?

He hadn't even had time to decide when Colton's next words stunned everyone present again.

"What? Is this status not enough for you?" Colton noticed Zane's silence and dropped another bombshell:

"I almost forgot to mention, I'm just Charles's teacher in alchemy. He has another teacher for Beast Mastery, do you know who that is?"

Zane's eyes widened in disbelief, a thought he couldn't accept rising in his mind.

Could it be that Charles's Beast Mastery teacher is even stronger than Colton?

"Who is it?" Zane swallowed hard, he really didn't want to know about Charles's other teacher,

but he had a sinking feeling today was going to be a major embarrassment.

"Ezra!" Colton said with a smile as he revealed the name.

"What? Ezra? Who is that?" Zane's mind raced, he realized he had never heard of this name before.

It didn't seem like it could be someone powerful, maybe just a Level 6 Beast Master?

Zane wasn't the only one thinking this way, Grace was also curious. She turned to Princess Rose and asked, "Who is this Ezra? How come I've never heard of him? Is he stronger than my teacher?"

Rose's expression was more serious than ever. She glanced at Grace, then at Charles standing behind Colton, and replied, "Very strong! Your teacher probably wouldn't dare to face Ezra!"

"Huh? Is that for real? My teacher is a Level 7 Beast Master!" Grace didn't believe it at all.

Rose added, "Ezra is a Level 8 Beast Master!"
