One after another, the Beast Tamers who had surrounded them proposed that this was an unfair challenge.
Standing at the side, Giles also realized that they had probably misunderstood Hash and Annie.
They had all mistakenly thought that Annie had hired Hash, an Elite Beast Tamer, to be the umpire and that behind this challenge was a dirty transaction of power and money.
That was why Giles had taken out a Silver-rank spirit beast to fight Annie's Gold-rank spirit beast in this challenge.
At the thought of this, Giles quickly explained to everyone, "Everyone, please calm down. This is actually a misunderstanding!"
"The vine belt on the abdomen of my Metal-feathered Eagle was wrapped with the help of Her Excellency Hash."
"That's because it had an unfortunate accident some time ago where it lost control of its evolution. Right now, its evolution is still in an incomplete state."
