Showing off? You're showing off to me? Part 2
"..."
Inside the arena, Cao Fengqi heard his opponent's words and some voices from below the stage, and his body paused slightly.
It was just a friendly sparring match, and you're putting on airs with me?
"Lieutenant General Guan, you really can hold more than a spatial ring!"
Cao Fengqi looked at him and shook his head slightly. "Let's begin. Today I'll teach you a lesson, so you'll know what humility truly means."
"Buzz!"
As soon as he finished speaking, without hesitation, a gray door, as black as a hole, slowly opened above him.
The gate was ten meters high and three meters wide, shrouded in a gray haze, as if it contained a great terror!
"Um?"
Upon hearing Cao Fengqi's words, Guan Tianlong frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure and coldness flashing in his eyes.
However, when he saw the gate above it containing unknown power, a hint of wariness appeared on his face.
What's this?
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The next second, a massive mental shockwave descended upon him.
"What?" "Buzzing!"
Feeling the immense power, Guan Tianlong's expression changed, extraordinary flames rose from his body, and the necklace around his neck emitted a dazzling blue light.
The armor he wore also shimmered with an extraordinary light.
In an instant, all of his defenses were activated.
"Click-click-click!" "Click-click-click!"
But the next second, everything vanished like autumn leaves in the wind; the blue light that enveloped them collapsed instantly, and the protective light of the armor dissipated.
The extraordinary flames on his body extinguished instantly.
At the same time, before he could react, his pupils contracted, and he fell into a completely stunned state.
Beast Techniques: Mirage Rat Domain and Mirage Sleep.
Five Mirage Rat attacked Guan Tianlong.

[Skill 8, Mirage Realm Return to the Ruins: Detonates 'Mirage' and 'Mirage Rat Domain', unleashing a terrifying mental storm that sweeps across all targets within the Mirage and Mirage Rat Domain's area of effect. Recharge time: 30 minutes.]
Having already advanced to level 9, these Mirage Rat have only gained two more skills.
One is the Mirage Rat Domain, the other is the Mirage Realm Return to the Ruins.
They are all psychological attacks, each one stronger than the last.
The Mirage Realm Return to the Ruins skill, in particular, can unleash terrifying power if Mirage is set up in advance.
Although the Mirage Rat has an extremely short physical body and obvious weaknesses, its mental attacks are impossible to defend against.
This is also why Cao Fengqi left behind five Mirage Rat.
Guan Tianlong was quite strong, but even with his many treasures, his mental defenses were not strong enough to withstand the attack of five level-9 Mirage Rat.
Guan Tianlong, in a state of Mirage Sleep, stood there motionless.
Cao Fengqi slowly raised his hand, his Nightmare Domain covering him, and gently waved it.
"Too weak, they couldn't even force me to use one-tenth of my strength."
He spoke slowly, then tossed Guan Tianlong's body off the stage.
It was thrown at the young major general in the capital who had just said that Lieutenant General Guan was a man of strong character.
"???"
"???"
At that moment, the arena fell completely silent.
All the generals of the Great Xia watched as Guan Tianlong was thrown out and instantly killed without even being able to put up a fight.
Hearing the leisurely words of the youngest lieutenant general of the Great Xia on the arena, an incredulous look appeared on his face.
Xu Zhenjiang, Xu Fenghua, and their group were especially shocked.
This...
"Lieutenant General Guan!!"
The young man caught Guan Tianlong's body and cried out with a somewhat grim expression.
He never expected that Guan Zhong, one of the strongest Lieutenant General Guan in their capital, couldn't even withstand a single move from his opponent.
"He suffered a powerful psychological attack, but it's not a big problem."
General Feng the capital sensed something and spoke up.
"Lieutenant General Cao is truly remarkable; a hero indeed emerges from among the young."
He looked at Cao Fengqi and praised him with a face full of amazement.
"I originally thought that Lieutenant General Cao was a prodigy in the Artifact Refiner profession, but I didn't expect him to be so amazing in actual combat as well."
"Yes, this level of strength is beyond even that of a typical general!"
Two generals in the audience couldn't help but speak up.
What just happened was outrageous.
Guan Tianlong's strength is definitely not weak among lieutenant generals.
However, he couldn't withstand a single move from this opponent.
Based solely on its demonstrated strength, even some generals would have to go all out against it.
What's most terrifying is that this is only the strength it has shown so far.
How strong is he in all his power?
"How did Lieutenant General Cao do that? What was that door he was using? We didn't see Lieutenant General Cao make a move at all!"
"Yes, Lieutenant General Cao is really amazing!"
The generals from Tianbei gasped in astonishment, their faces filled with disbelief.
Judging from Lieutenant General Cao's provocation of General Xu today, they suspect that he may have a trump card up his sleeve.
Just as General Song General Chen had guessed, they believed their trump card was a powerful weapon he had created.
The result... what is this?
"Behind that door should be a battle pet, a level 9 battle pet. Don't forget the battle pet that Fengqi summoned at the Tianbei Exchange Meeting; it was already at level 8 at that time."
"Besides the Artifact Refiner profession, Fengqi also has a Beast Shepherd profession, which is why he said he switched professions."
"They're level 9 battle pets, and there might be more than one. That's insane, absolutely insane."
"This also means that the Beast Shepherd class, Fengqi, has most likely entered the Fourth Sequence!"
General Song's eyes gleamed as he spoke, glancing at Xu Zhenjiang beside him. "Double fourth rank, Old Xu, perhaps you've truly met your match."
"Damn, this kid is a monster!"
At that moment, Xu Zhenjiang thought of a lot of information, his expression changed, and he couldn't help but utter a curse.
