Impossible!!

"Impossible!!!"

The heads of the other families, including Ethan, all stood up in shock, staring at the lions, who had all come to a stop and gotten down on all fours... Even bowing their heads to Christopher.

"....."

Mariana, Monica, Mitchell, and the entire audience were stunned speechless.

"Get up and roll over."

The lions all stood up and rolled on the ground.

"Sit."

They all sat down.

"This?"

Even Boris was stunned. "Even a Master Tamer can't tame beasts with a command," he turned to Ethan.

"Mr. Ethan."

He bowed in acknowledgment, stunning the other three families.

This was Boris, the head of the most powerful family in their country, now bowing to him, who was a lot weaker than them. Why wouldn't Ethan be flattered?

"Mr. Ethan, look after us in the future."

The other two bowed their heads... With gritted teeth, Vincent spoke:

"It seems I made a mistake. I plead for Master Ethan's forgiveness."

Ethan smiled:

"Come on, we're all friends; there's no need to be so worked up... Come on, let's sit down and watch the whole show."

Ethan smiled brightly.

The three nodded, stood upright, and sat down, staring at Christopher and the lions.

"This!! I don't believe this!! He's using something! There's no way he could control all ten!!"

Mariana stepped forward, pointing her finger at Christopher.

"What are you saying, Miss Mariana? You saw Master Christopher tame the Beasts; he's even asking them to do tricks. How is he using a skill?" Monica asked, frowning slightly.

"She's just jealous," Advika said quietly, but making sure Monica, Mitchell, and Mariana heard her.

"This—!"

"—Stop it, Miss... If you continue with this attitude, you'll be disqualified... Now stop causing trouble!!"

Mariana was stunned by Monica's outburst. She scoffed and stepped back.

Monica nodded and walked towards Christopher and the lions.

"Master Christopher, some of these people don't believe you could tame these beasts. I think you should ask them to do something impressive so this doubt can be removed."

Christopher thought for a few seconds and nodded... The next moment, all the lions stood up and shot past him, all heading towards Mariana.

"What is this?!!"

Mariana leaped backward, but the male lion was faster... With a leap, it collided with Mariana, throwing her to the ground.

"How dare you?!!"

Mariana stood up in rage: "You three out!"

Three lights flew out from her bracelet and took the form of three wolf beasts.

"Get them!!" She yelled.

"Sending wolves against lions? What a stupid move.... And most of all, the lions grew up in the wild, while your wolves?"

BAM!!!

The male lion slapped the white wolf to the ground, and the other nine had also defeated the other two wolves.

GRRRAAAA!

BAM!

Whiii Hiiiii!

The wolf whimpered in pain as the huge male lion placed its paw on its face, pressing it on the ground, its majestic flaming mane moving in the wind.

"This?"

Mariana was stunned, not knowing what to do.

The huge lion opened its mouth, ready to tear the wolf's neck off... Then it heard Christopher's words.

"Stand down."

The lion instantly closed its mouth. It lowered its gaze on the wolf, then took off its paw, turned around, and walked towards Christopher... The lions all stood behind him, staring at Mariana and her injured beasts.

"How do you like my beasts?"

Christopher asked with a smirk.

"You!!!"

Mariana turned around in rage and walked away in long strides, her beasts following behind her.

"Don't worry about her, Master Christopher; she'll be back. If she takes longer than the time needed for the last test, she'll be disqualified; that means failure," Monica said with a dark expression.

"Worry? I'm glad she isn't here to disturb me," Christopher said with a smile.

"Good. Now, please move out of the way so the other youngsters can start," Monica said.

Christopher nodded and stared at the audience. With a smile, he walked away from the center.

"You did good, Chris!"

Advika said with a smile.

"You need to be alert. Mariana can't do anything to me, but you're a different matter... You offended her, not once but twice, and Mariana isn't someone who lets go of a grudge, especially from someone she deems inferior to her."

"Thanks for the warning, and don't worry; I'm not weak enough to be scared of her."

Christopher nodded at her and stood at the side, watching the youngsters, who picked an egg each and tried hatching it with their Life Force.

'This isn't right. You need to know how to tame Life Beasts, not an egg... No matter what, these guys won't learn the basics of taming Beasts... If the eggs are hatched, the Beast in them will instantly take them as its master... Well, these guys are still weak; hatching a Perfect-stage Beast's egg won't be easy.'

He turned his head to the side, seeing the ten lions lying beside him, all staring at the youngsters.

"Don't worry, guys; after all this, I'll get some juicy meat for all of you."

The lions looked up at him with bright eyes, already imagining the huge meat.

[Outside the Stadium.]

"AH! That fool named Christopher! Who does he think he is?!! I'll crush him—"

"—To crush someone powerful, you need to use your brain, not your heart."

The fuming Mariana turned around to the voice.

"Dad?" She was stunned.

"Dad!!"

She rushed to Vincent and hugged his waist.

"Dad, that Christopher embarrassed me, even Principal Monica supported him."

"Shush now, my dear... You aren't the only one who has been embarrassed."

Vincent separated and stared at his daughter's tearful face.

"You shouldn't have reacted the way you did inside... I know you're angry, but you must know how to control your emotions. When you're defeated or proven wrong, as happened today, you should apologize and act normal... Make others think you have no grudge or enmity with anyone... Then strike when no one least expects it... Get it?"

Mariana stared at her father for a few seconds and slowly nodded in understanding.

"I understand, Father."

"Good. What you'll do now is go back in there, apologize to Principal Monica, and maybe Christopher... With that taken care of, you'll wait for the third stage... Don't forget the real objective in these tests," Vincent said.

Mariana wasn't fully into apologizing, but still nodded her head.

"I won't fail you, Father."
