Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

The mysterious person looked at the neatly arranged food on the table, feeling no appetite whatsoever. His interest in Charles was growing stronger by the moment.

"Good talent, strong intuition, a sharp mind, and completely calm throughout. He's a promising prospect, now it's just a matter of seeing how he performs in battle."

The mysterious person, wearing a white mask, slowly sat down but didn't pick up any utensils.

Instead, he took a deep breath, inhaling the steam rising from the food.

In an instant, the food lost its color and turned grayish-white.

Then, the mysterious person sighed helplessly and said somewhat forlornly, "I haven't had a proper meal in a long time, playing video games is much more interesting."

...

Inside Genosha's largest stadium, the place was already packed with people.

The competition venue had already been built in the middle of the green area inside the stadium.

Surrounding the stadium were several large screens, making it easier for the audience in the back to watch the event.

Charles followed the Cyber Academy team as they slowly entered the stadium. When he arrived at the designated area for Cyber Academy, he had barely appeared when he heard deafening cheers from the stands:

"Charles! Look, it's my idol Charles!"

"Quick, take a picture! There haven't been any updates on Charles's photos online for two or three days. He's even more charming in person, it's impossible to look away!"

"I can't take it anymore, I'm so excited! Charles! I will always support you!"

Charles listened to the shouts around him with a blank expression, his mind still preoccupied with what had just happened.

"Relying solely on the light from the lamps is a bit too weak. My intuition has sharpened a bit, and I have a rough idea that the other party is in that corner, but I still can't pinpoint the exact location."

There was nothing he could do about it, he knew that the other party's strength was just too formidable. Even Jamie, an Level 8 Beast Master, had been unable to sense their presence.

He was just a Level 4 Beast Master.

Once he became a Level 5 Beast Master and successfully contracted a light attribute mystical beast, he would be able to use the energy from that light attribute to more strongly alter the surrounding light.

At that point, he would be able to completely unravel the other party's method of hiding.

Just then, two figures slowly approached, it was Luna and Snow. Snow directly pulled Luna down to sit next to Charles.

Jace, Zachary, and Camilla were also near Charles, and their gazes instinctively turned toward Luna and Snow.

Luna simply nodded, while Snow greeted Camilla, "Little Ran, you need to perform well later. You might even face off against your sister, so make sure to fight with all your strength."

Camilla silently nodded, her gaze lingering on Luna.

Recently, there had been a lot of talk in Genosha about Luna and Charles, with most people saying they were a match made in heaven.

One was the monstrous boy from Cyber Academy, and the other was the aloof genius girl from Genosha.

For some reason, Camilla felt a bit agitated at that moment. She slowly shifted her gaze to Charles and noticed that he showed no signs of joy or excitement, which relieved her a bit.

However, just then, another figure approached.

"Charles, what have you been busy with lately?" Celestine asked as she sensed the somewhat tense atmosphere and walked over to Charles.

She then turned her gaze to Jace, who immediately stood up and moved to a nearby seat, giving up his spot.

"I've been busy leveling up my mystical beast and dealing with some other matters. Why do you ask?" Charles replied as he watched Celestine sit next to him.

"Nothing much, I just missed you recently." Celestine said, her cheeks flushing as she spoke firmly.

Zachary and Jace exchanged knowing glances and quietly shifted away from their seats to sit further apart.

They certainly didn't want to stay in such an awkward atmosphere.

"That's Charles for you, staying completely calm in a situation like this without a single change in expression!" Jace whispered to Zachary.

Zachary nodded vigorously and quietly glanced back.

He noticed that Camilla and Luna showed no change in their expressions, but after hearing Celestine's words, "I missed you." both of them instinctively straightened up.

"They're not going to start fighting, are they?" Zachary looked at Charles with a sympathetic gaze.

"Sometimes being too charming isn't a good thing." Jace said slowly.

Zachary sighed and replied, "That's true, but as two single guys, what right do we have to say that? I really envy Charles!"

It wasn't just Jace and Zachary who were paying attention to the situation with Charles, the audience in the stadium looked on with expressions of envy and jealousy as three top beauties surrounded him.

"Wow! No wonder he's my idol, I can only dream of such a scene!"

"Don't even say it, bro, I wouldn't dare to dream about it. If I were Charles, that would be amazing! I'd trade ten years off my life for that kind of charm!"

"I just want to meet someone as good as them, if I could do that, I'd gladly live three years less!"

"Stop dreaming, only someone like Charles gets this kind of treatment—three top goddesses!"

"Exactly! One is the noble second princess of Genosha, Your Highness, one is the youthful and beautiful senior Celestine, and the other is the universally recognized goddess, Luna! It's truly enviable!"

"Look, that person looks familiar, isn't that the Beast Master Wayne from the Haunted Marsh? He's walking toward Charles!"

Sure enough, under the audience's gaze, Wayne stepped out from the Nova Academy area and slowly made his way toward Charles.

Charles heard the murmurs around him and instinctively looked up.

To be honest, he actually wanted Wayne to show up right now. Celestine, Camilla, and Luna kept exchanging glances, and the tension in the air was palpable!

However, Celestine still held the upper hand at the moment, after all, Camilla and Luna couldn't openly say "I missed you" in front of others.

"Charles, I'll give you one more chance. As long as you sincerely apologize to me, according to noble etiquette—no, you're just a commoner, so you should kneel and accept my forgiveness—I will let you off the hook in the battle!" Wayne said slowly.

In an instant, Celestine, Camilla, and Luna's attention was drawn to Wayne.

"Apologize? Charles hasn't done anything wrong, you're the one who provoked him at the banquet!" Celestine shot a cold glance at him and said angrily.

She had learned about what happened at the banquet afterward, she had missed it due to other commitments, but otherwise, she would have exploded in public!

"Exactly, you were the one who was rude first." Camilla added, her cheeks puffed up in anger.

Luna slowly spoke up, her tone icy as she said, "Get lost."

Wayne's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the three ladies before him.

He pointed to his own face and replied, "It's all my fault? He's just a commoner now, what right does he have to be so arrogant? I am the Count of the Haunted Marsh!"

Wayne couldn't understand, Charles couldn't have attracted the attention of three such charming ladies just because of his looks, could he?

What charm could a mere commoner possibly have?

He was already a Level 5 Beast Master and the Count of the Haunted Marsh, wearing clothes that cost nearly ten gold coins!

With that thought, Wayne took a deep breath, striving to maintain an elegant smile on his face, and spoke as calmly as possible:

"Ladies, I don't know what kind of tricks Charles has used to attract your attention, but I will show you just how incompetent and arrogant this commoner truly is!"

He emphasized the word "commoner" to highlight Charles's status.

To his surprise, Celestine, Camilla, and Luna didn't even glance at the pretentious Wayne!

"Disgusting!" Celestine said bluntly.

"Rude!" Camilla huffed angrily.

And Luna, still unwavering, repeated, "Get lost!"

At this point, Wayne could no longer tolerate it.

He looked at Charles, who hadn't said a word, and pointed a finger directly at his nose, shouting in anger:

"I have given you a chance, Charles. Don't worry, when the competition comes, I will show you the consequences of a commoner daring to disrespect someone above him!"

"I will let everyone know just how weak you really are!"

Charles did not respond, he simply raised his gaze to Wayne's outstretched finger. Then, he slowly shifted his focus to Wayne's vulnerable throat.

A chilling aura emanated from Charles's eyes.

Wayne instinctively trembled and took two steps back.

By the time he realized what was happening, Charles had already looked away.

"Look! The Beast Master from the Haunted Marsh, just one glance from Charles and he was scared enough to back away!"

"I didn't just see it, I recorded it too! This guy has no guts at all—he dares to come and taunt Charles?"

"I want to see what happens when he actually faces Charles, will he just surrender on the spot?"

Wayne's whole body began to tremble. He heard the laughter around him and saw Charles's ever-calm expression, and the anger in his heart reached its peak!

No matter what it took, he had to win the competition!

Wayne screamed inside his mind in a frenzy.
