Chapter 431: A Noticeable Competition

"What does it matter if you become a Level Nine Beast Master? This world is going to get increasingly dangerous. The appearance of those six Bodies was just the beginning, even more terrifying things will descend upon the Ethereal Grove." the mysterious figure in the white mask said in a calm tone. 

Yet, Charles could sense a hint of undeniable confusion and despair hidden beneath that calm demeanor. 

What could possibly cause such a powerful being to reveal feelings of confusion and despair? 

Charles instinctively furrowed his brow. 

The mysterious figure realized he had said too much. Once he collected himself, he took a deep breath and slowly said:

"It's a bit too early for you to worry about these matters. Focus on strengthening your abilities. Only by becoming a more powerful Beast Master can you survive the crises that lie ahead."
