Dueling beast

Moving back to the arena was an experience filled with both joy and anxiety. Thinking about how much trouble did we cause to the town's mayor, I couldn't help but worry that this fight against a demonic beast was just a way to get back on us!

It was commonly known that a beast and a cultivator of a similar realm would be greatly mismatched, even with the use of weapons or fighting arts. It all boiled down to the number of hardships one had to go through to raise his prowess and the innate experience that came with all the efforts to grow. 

While humans could just cultivate to absorb the free energy of the world, demonic beasts had to either feed on expensive and rare medicinal herbs or just consume the opponents of similar or higher realm to advance.
