"Since it has come to this, let's end it quickly!" Baili Hongzhuang's eyes grew colder, and from this tentative exchange, she had gained some understanding of Nangong Aochen's strength.
Although her cultivation was inferior to Nangong Aochen's, she still had the ability to put up a fight.
In her dictionary, there was never the word "surrender." She would never know the final result if she didn't fight with all her might!
Nangong Aochen's sharp gaze narrowed slightly. In this situation, Baili Hongzhuang could still say such words, indicating that she was ready to fight to the death.
"Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish!" Nangong Aochen's voice was filled with a chilling intent. He couldn't let Baili Hongzhuang continue to linger in the battle; he wanted a crushing victory that would make everyone understand the dignity of the royal family.
On the other side, Baili turned her head and nodded at Baili Hongzhuang. Only then did her gaze fall on the opposing Flame Lion.
However, the majestic Flame Lion, upon seeing Baili, revealed a trace of fear in its eyes. Its robust body began to tremble.
Witnessing this scene, a hint of astonishment appeared in the eyes of the onlookers.
"Why does the Flame Lion seem to fear that white creature?"
"What kind of species is that white creature? Why have I never seen it before?"
The crowd was puzzled. Although there were many species of demonic beasts, the people present had keen eyes and were familiar with even the most ornamental ones. But this kind of demonic beast, the white lion, was clearly something they had never seen before.
"You're thinking too much. How could the Flame Lion be afraid of such a small creature?"
Many people dismissed the notion. The Flame Lion was a formidable existence among contract beasts, and students from a remote place like Canglan Academy couldn't possibly have a contract beast better than the Crown Prince.
"Elder Huan, what species is Baili Hongzhuang's contract beast?" Jian Qingqiu was not a foolish person. The hierarchy of demonic beasts was even stricter than that of humans. Only when a lower-level demonic beast encountered a higher-level one would it exhibit such behavior.
Previously, they had always regarded Baili Hongzhuang's contract beast as a pet, but now it seemed that the white lion was clearly more than just an ornamental creature.
Huan ChuYou was also somewhat surprised. In fact, he had never paid much attention to the white lion.
"I... I haven't looked into it before," Huan ChuYou said slowly.
However, Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxi clearly didn't believe what Huan ChuYou said and thought he was deliberately keeping them in suspense.
"No matter the strength of that demonic beast, Baili Hongzhuang is no match for Nangong Aochen!" Cang Hongxi had no good feelings towards Jian Qingqiu. Yesterday, Huan ChuYou had exposed Wei Hanyun's identity in front of everyone, which was a great embarrassment for him. Now, he only hoped that Canglan Academy would be defeated and end up in last place.
Huan ChuYou glanced coldly at Cang Hongxi. "At least the students from Canglan Academy have the courage to fight, unlike you, who don't even have the courage to engage in battle."
Seeing that Huan ChuYou's words were becoming more impolite, Cang Hongxi snorted, "You better pray that your good seedlings from Canglan Academy don't die on the arena."
"You!" Huan ChuYou's anger surged, but Cang Hongxi had already withdrawn his gaze. This old man was becoming more and more outrageous.
However, Cang Hongxi's words served as a wake-up call for Huan ChuYou. He needed to pay close attention to the situation on the arena at all times and ensure that Baili Hongzhuang was not in mortal danger.
