Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

When the Beast Tamer blew the whistle at that instant, Gelie, who was already ready to attack, raised its powerful limbs without hesitation and charged towards Xu Xingguang.

During the sprint, Gelie made a preparatory jump, and its mighty body leaped up again, descending towards Xu Xingguang’s position.

Unless something unexpected happened, a casual swipe of its claws could easily crush Xu Xingguang’s spine.

Seeing this, Xu Xingguang suddenly turned her head and ran.

”Heh.” Seeing Xu Xingguang fleeing without a fight, Li Yucheng sneered, ”Not much of a challenge after all.”

The other contestants also showed mocking expressions.

Only the young man who had talked with Xu Xingguang frowned in disbelief, feeling somewhat reluctant as he turned his head away, unwilling to witness the bloody scene of Xu Xingguang being bitten by Gelie.

Almost everyone believed Xu Xingguang was running for her life.

The audience roared like maniacs: ”Gelie, tear her apart!”

”Gelie, bite off her head directly!”

”No, first use your claws to rip open her belly, pull out her entrails!”

A group of lunatics, as if they had already seen the brutal scene of Xu Xingguang being tortured to death by Gelie.

Just thinking about that scene made their blood boil, scalp tingle, and toes curl tightly involuntarily.

But was Xu Xingguang really fleeing for her life?

No.

She was performing a conquering ritual before taming the beast.

To tame wild beasts, you must first conquer them with your presence.

Xu Xingguang’s fleeing steps seemed chaotic, but each step was actually the best distance calculated by her, and her direction was also the optimal position.

Gelie noticed that the prey was running so fast, it felt its dignity was being challenged. Gelie roared angrily and charged towards Xu Xingguang again, opening its massive jaws wide.

It was determined to crush Xu Xingguang’s spine and bite off her head the moment it caught her!

Just as Gelie was about to catch up with Xu Xingguang, and the distance between them shortened to only five meters, Xu Xingguang suddenly stopped running. Then, she astonishingly turned and dashed headfirst towards Gelie!

”What is she trying to do? Is she planning to fight Gelie head-on?”

This was unexpected.

But Xu Xingguang did an unimaginable move.

She jumped into the air like Gelie did before and landed steadily on the ground with her limbs down. It was like a fierce tiger leaping from a cliff into the valley, poised and practiced.

When Gelie saw her move, it strangely stopped.

At this moment, the distance between them had shrunk to two meters.

Upon landing, Xu Xingguang crouched down, lifted her head high, and her gray pupils shot out an authoritative and domineering gaze.

That gaze was like two sharp battle swords, filled with murderous intent and an imposing presence that forbids violation.

Xu Xingguang slowly raised her upper body, as if mimicking a tiger’s walk, moving her limbs boldly towards Gelie.

Gelie didn’t dare move forward, nor did it retreat, just warily watching Xu Xingguang as she approached.

When the two were only fifty centimeters apart, Xu Xingguang suddenly twisted her neck, opening her lips, and let out a deafening tiger roar—

”Roar!”

The robust roar filled with majesty was even more spine-chilling than Gelie’s roar.

Hearing Xu Xingguang’s roar, Gelie’s eyes surprisingly showed fear.

”Roar!” Xu Xingguang again issued a threatening shout towards Gelie and walked towards Gelie with steady and commanding steps.

Her gaze carried a bloody sharpness, her presence held the majesty of a Commander ruling over the beasts of the jungle. Gelie tucked its tail, hesitated for a moment, then slowly lowered its head.

Following that, under watchful eyes, Gelie actually retreated to the edge of the battle platform, moved its limbs slowly, and backed away.

When it reached a relatively safe position, Gelie suddenly turned, jumped off the battle platform, fearfully crawled into the cage, and refused to come out.

Xu Xingguang roared once more before standing up.

She stood at the edge of the battle platform, gazing across into the fierce tiger inside the cage.

Gelie’s body shivered, and it obediently lay inside the cage.

That fearful look was like a kitten confronting a massive tiger.

This battle, Xu Xingguang won without a fight.

And the audience who witnessed the entire process were dumbfounded.
