Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future Webnovel - Chapter 194

194 Alan Tests Shen Fei’s Strength
Blood flowed out of his chest and dyed his clothes red. He looked awful. Shen Fei’s body swayed a few times and he almost fell.

“Haha, I finally understand why my daughter chose you. You’re really a good seedling, worthy of being cultivated,” said Edward, satisfied.

“Cough, cough…” Shen Fei let out a few dry coughs, his face was as white as a sheet. Edward’s attack was too cunning and lethal, and it had caused Shen Fei serious injuries.

However, he did not collapse, but instead stared at Edward.

“Don’t just stare at me, my attacks haven’t stopped yet.” Edward mockingly smiled. Then, his palm made a grabbing gesture at Shen Fei from a distance. Hundreds of dark green energy cones appeared and shot toward him in a thick swarm, sealing away his escape route.

!!
Shen Fei’s face was solemn, but his reaction remained sharp. At the moment when the green energy cones were about to hit him, his figure suddenly retreated and dodged these attacks. However, the dark green energy cones seemed to have eyes as they followed closely behind him at an even faster speed.

“Kid, I already gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it!” Edward sneered. There was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, as if he enjoyed watching people struggle when they were already at death’s door.

After a moment, he suddenly raised his right leg and swung it out. The strong wind caused the papers around him to rustle. Shen Fei’s eyes focused for a moment on that movement, then he stomped down fiercely with his right foot, and his body shot up like a cannonball, narrowly avoiding the other party’s horizontal kick.

Shen Fei steadied his body and took a deep breath. “Mayor, are you trying to test my strength?”

Shen Fei looked at Mayor Edward as the corner of his mouth curved into a mocking smile.

‘The mayor is quite cautious.’

From the beginning to the end, he did not reveal the slightest flaw, making it impossible to find an opening. Not only that, he was also constantly paying attention to Shen Fei’s actions.

Earlier, Edward had used his mental energy to observe Shen Fei’s every move. Thus, when he was about to dodge those dark green energy cones, he was already prepared to launch a sneak attack on Shen Fei. If it were not for Shen Fei’s quick reaction, he would have been defeated and even killed in seconds!

Edward’s brows twitched, a little surprised. “Huh, it seems that you’re more powerful than I expected, to be able to notice that I’m monitoring you. No wonder my precious daughter chose you. Not bad, not bad…”

After saying this, Edward launched a fierce attack again. His moves were swift and fierce, pouring out like a storm. Every strike was aggressive and terrifying, forcing Shen Fei to retreat step by step. He did not even have the space to breathe.

Edward’s attacks were getting more and more violent. He only wanted Shen Fei to show his true strength. The mayor always felt that Shen Fei’s future would be boundless.

Suddenly, Edward shouted, “Shen Fei, why haven’t you used your true strength yet?” He flipped his hand and two daggers appeared in his palm.

Whoosh!

He swung his arm, and the dagger in his hand drew out a beautiful blade of light that went straight for Shen Fei with deadly force.

Shen Fei’s pupils contracted. The tip of his feet touched the ground and his body leaped up, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow. He hovered in the air and stared at Edward coldly. He did not dare to take that move head-on, so he did not use his full strength.

“Hmph, since you’re hiding your strength, I’ll have to be more serious next.” Edward’s voice was cold and majestic.

Sching!

With a wave of his hands, the two daggers split into four, emitting a dark and eerie luster.

“A four-star martial artist?!”

Shen Fei’s face changed when he saw the four daggers. A four-star martial artist was equivalent to a Martial Master. He could be considered a master of the whole universe!

Moreover, Edward was a high-tier Beastmaster. His combat strength was definitely far superior to other Beastmasters of the same tier.

Whoosh!

The four daggers tore through the air like venomous snakes, shooting for Shen Fei’s neck.

This was a martial technique called Phantom Footwork. It was even more amazing when used with the true essence of a four-star martial artist.

Shen Fei’s eyelids twitched. Both of his fists danced and smashed toward the oncoming daggers.

Clang, clang!

Sparks flew, and the four daggers were forced back by Shen Fei.

Edward frowned. His Phantom Footwork was a high-level martial technique, but it did not do anything to this young man.

“Kid, you’re quite capable!” Edward grinned. Immediately, his entire body emitted dense energy fluctuations.

Hummm!

The space behind him seemed to tremble violently, and then a huge pressure came crashing down.

Bang!

Shen Fei groaned and his body staggered back a few meters. A trickle of blood flowed out of his mouth.

This pressure was too terrifying. It was like a huge mountain, making it difficult for him to breathe. It was unbearable.

Edward sighed and said regretfully, “Shen Fei, I have high hopes for you, but why won’t you let me know what your true strength is?… Forget it. If that’s how you want it, then I won’t hold back. Let’s see if you’re lucky enough to block my strongest attack.”

Hearing this, Shen Fei’s expression changed minutely. His heart trembled as he watched Edward warily.

Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard. Then, a thick blue lightning bolt shot up from the top of Edward’s head.

This lightning contained a terrifying power, causing Shen Fei to feel the promise of death. Thunder rumbled, and blue electric arcs wove together to form a blue wyrm that circled above Edward’s head, emitting a destructive aura.

“Lightning Martial Soul!”

Shen Fei’s pupils contracted, and a hint of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

‘This guy has three martial souls!’ Shen Fei took in a deep breath of cold air.

One should know that it was already heaven-defying to have two martial souls. After all, those who can comprehend two kinds of profound truths are very rare.

However, this old man in front of him actually had three martial souls. Did this not mean that he had already comprehended three profound truths?

Thunder rumbled as though the end of the world had arrived. A blue water dragon swept down with vast energy.

“Mayor, since you wish to do this, then I shall make a fool of myself.” Shen Fei slowly closed his eyes. He opened them again a moment later and a red light appeared in his eyes. Then, a scarlet light pillar burst out from his mind. It was like a sharp sword that slashed at the blue water dragon that was circling the space.

Clang!

The red light beam and the blue water dragon collided. The blue water dragon was split into two and shattered. The electric current that filled the sky disappeared, and the area gradually returned to tranquillity.

“This… How is that possible?” When he saw his attack get neutralized by Shen Fei, Edward’s eyes widened and his face was filled with shock.

‘Wasn’t this kid an F-class talent? How could he block my own martial technique?’

“There are many things in this world that you can’t understand.” Shen Fei shook his head. With a flash, he appeared in front of Edward. He spread his fingers and made to slap Edward…
