Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

Chapter 486 486: Doubts



In the Genosha royal secret realm, the earth shattering noise from earlier left everyone inside the realm stunned for a moment. No one knew exactly what had happened, but they all felt a terrifying sense of threat emanating from the source of the disturbance.

"Could it be Charles? Did he run into some kind of danger?" Grace speculated, secretly hoping that if that were the case, she could finally relax.

The tremors from the mountain affected the trial she was undergoing, slightly reducing its intensity.

Grace, however, was quick to act. Seizing the opportunity, she suddenly accelerated and covered a significant distance.

Unfortunately, none of the people outside the secret realm paid any attention to her.

Everyone's gaze remained fixed on the destruction caused by Charles. The surrounding silence lasted for a full minute.

It wasn't until Genosha's Emperor, Miles, instinctively swallowed, that the other ministers snapped out of their shock.

Someone frantically licked their lips, trying to calm themselves, and asked in a dazed voice:

"What just happened?"

"What did Charles do? Did he completely break the second trial?"

"My god, did you see the damage caused by that massive sword to the mountain?"

"How did he even do that?!"

After the ministers of Genosha regained their senses, they all looked as bewildered and stunned as children in kindergarten. They were filled with confusion, curiosity, and shock, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

Is this something a normal human could actually do?

The second trial was supposed to let the talented individuals entering the secret realm experience the brutal reality of the battlefield suffering, killing, and testing their willpower and mentality. The one who spends the least amount of time passing the second trial would have the best result!

But Charles?

He had just wiped out the entire second trial!

Earlier, Charles had commanded the weapons and equipment within the trial like a general on the battlefield, gathering them together to form a massive sword, which then struck the mountain.

Miles was rendered speechless. As the Emperor of Genosha, he understood better than anyone just how difficult the second trial was for all the geniuses who had entered the royal secret realm before.

Take Finn and Luna, for example. They had only reached a third of the way through the trial, and as one went deeper, the intensity of the trial only increased!

"Back then, Ezra broke the record for the second trial. How long did it take again?" Miles asked Nathaniel, who stood next to him.

Nathaniel carefully recalled, then answered confidently, "Your Majesty, the highest record was 25 minutes."

"And now?" Miles asked again. "Charles has completely erased the second trial. Will he be the first?"

A bitter smile tugged at the corner of Nathaniel's mouth. He didn't know either, but he doubted it. After all, the rankings on the stone tablet were based on the time it took to complete the trial. Charles hadn't completed the trial like everyone else; he had directly taken control of it!

This was a situation unlike anything ever seen before an unprecedented, one of a kind event!

"Your Majesty, I have a guess. The reason Charles could do this might be because he has grasped something profoundly mysterious. General Mason once said that there is an elusive power in the army, on the battlefield. It's a force that ordinary people find difficult to master. Throughout history, only a few people have ever been able to control it!"

Miles's eyes instantly brightened, his ears twitching slightly. He unconsciously leaned in toward Nathaniel, signaling for him to continue.

Nathaniel paused for a moment before speaking again:

"That power is called The Will to Fight. It's not something that one person alone can comprehend. General Mason once said that it's an unobservable collective force. It requires a large number of soldiers to face a common enemy, to fight to the death without retreat, with no fear in their hearts, for it to emerge."

"Charles's situation seems to align with Mason's theory, though."

Miles furrowed his brow, repeating with emphasis, "Theory?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Even General Mason, who has led armies for years, could only vaguely sense the existence of this power. He had no way to study it. And yet, Charles, this eighteen year old youth who has never seen battle, was able to reach such a level," Nathaniel said seriously.

What does it mean to be a genius?

Before Charles appeared, anyone who was young with a high Beast Master rank was considered a genius.

But with Charles's emergence, the definition of genius had become impossible to describe.

If we had to define genius, it would now be by comparing them to Charles!

"Charles will absolutely become an existence beyond our wildest imaginations. As an eighth level Beast Master, even I have no idea how strong he will become in the future!" Nathaniel said with a tone laced with envy.

This was the first time he felt this way. How could anyone not envy Charles's talent?

"Indeed, it shows I wasn't wrong about him!" Miles's shock transformed into excitement.

Given Charles's talent, it was possible that in just a few decades, he would become the strongest in the entire Abyssal Depths!

By then, which country or force would dare to stop Genosha's progress?

As Miles thought of this, an uncontrollable excitement surged within him. Then, suddenly, he remembered something and casually glanced at He Xingshan, still in shock.

"At the very least, in Genosha, there can't be anyone who tries to hinder Charles's growth!" Miles's gaze sharpened, and his desire to eliminate He Xingshan grew stronger.

At the same time, this matter could not remain low key. It had to be high profile. Everyone in Genosha must know that anyone who dares to oppose Charles is an enemy of Genosha!

Charles represented the hope of Genosha!

"We'll deal with it once Charles finishes his trial," Miles said after a brief moment of thought.

He then refocused all his attention on the mirror not far away, eagerly waiting to see Charles's next move.

Inside the secret realm, because Charles had completed the trial in such a unique way, by the time he reached the end of the second trial, no stone tablet had appeared, and thus there was no reward.

His method of completing the trial was like taking an exam where other talented individuals were diligently answering questions, while Charles simply removed his clothes, revealing his professional outfit beneath, and became the invigilator.

He and Finn, Luna, and Grace were on completely different levels. The others were students, while he was the teacher.

"It's not too bad. I've gained another trump card. If I encounter an environment similar to The Domain of War, I can use that powerful attack like I did earlier," Charles thought, still fairly satisfied. His only concern was whether the reward for the second trial would be the Fire Spirit Pearl.

"If it really is, I can try to negotiate with the royal family after the trial ends and see if I can exchange it for something else," Charles thought for a moment before deciding not to hesitate any longer. He began walking toward the middle of the mountain.

Soon, a strange sensation appeared in his perception. The gravity around him seemed to have intensified slightly, and his stamina began depleting faster.

After walking a bit further, he saw a large stone with a few bold words inscribed on it:

Trial: The Domain of Earth

"The Domain of Earth? That name sounds a bit strange," Charles muttered, furrowing his brow. He looked around, but there didn't seem to be anything particularly unusual.

When he turned his gaze to the ground beneath his feet, a prompt suddenly flashed in front of him:

Thick Soil [Blue Quality]: A special material, rarely used in alchemy and forging. It usually appears in clusters and doesn't alter the surrounding environment by itself. However, when it reaches a certain quantity, it can cause significant changes to the environment, such as increasing gravity.

The information was simple. The so called Thick Soil was just a blue quality material that increased the surrounding gravity.

No wonder he had felt his stamina draining a bit more than usual.

"Well, it's just what I needed. My physical strength hasn't been improving much lately. This could be a good chance to see if I can enhance my physical strength," Charles's eyes brightened.

He quickly started walking toward the distance. With each step, he could feel the increasing pressure around him, and the ground beneath his feet grew harder and harder.

However, this level of difficulty wasn't a big problem for Charles.

He moved swiftly, and not long after, he had already covered nearly half the distance.

Then, Charles stopped and fell into deep thought.

Due to Charles' performance in the second trial, every move he made was closely watched by those outside. Therefore, when he suddenly stopped, people began to discuss it.

"What's going on? Charles seemed to be doing fine earlier, and the physical strain shouldn't have been that bad. He didn't even take a break."

"Isn't he resting now? Completing half the distance in one go any typical level five Beast Master would need to take a break for a while."

"The third trial, like the second, gets harder the deeper you go. Maybe Charles just wants to adjust himself properly for the next stretch of the trial."

Nathaniel, however, didn't think this way. His attention toward Charles was intense, and he knew that Charles' physical strength was far beyond what a normal level five Beast Master could handle. Charles should be able to keep going for some distance why would he stop here?

Just as Nathaniel was puzzled, Charles suddenly moved again.
