Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints

"Classmate, did you just see a new student in front of the stone wall? They just went in, and they should be pretty easy to recognize." Aero asked eagerly.

The student who had just been talking to Charles answered somewhat confusedly, "I did come across a new face, but they shouldn't be a new student. They just enrolled not long ago, how could they possibly enter the Trial Tower?"

Upon hearing the response, Aero's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "You don't know! The strongest new student this year, Charles, was able to make the testing crystal glow to half! He's already inside the Trial Tower!"

Ryan was stunned by this answer, and his first reaction was disbelief. He said, "April Fool's Day has been over for a long time, why are you still joking?"

Aero shrugged helplessly, turned to look at the others around him, and said, "I'm not joking. If you don't believe me, go ask them. They all saw it!"

Ryan followed Aero's gaze and looked around. He saw everyone nodding their heads, confirming that what Aero had said was true!

Seeing this scene, Ryan instinctively reached out and pinched his own cheek. After realizing he wasn't dreaming, he exclaimed in shock:

"Oh my gosh! I just met that new student, and he even asked me a question!"

"What question? What did he ask?" Many people gathered around, hurriedly asking.

Ryan replied somewhat uncertainly, "He asked me why he saw so many figures on the stone wall."

The crowd instantly erupted in discussion, with various voices chiming in:

"Is that for real? I looked for a whole week and only saw one figure! I still haven't learned the related combat skills!"

"That's impossible. The strongest record is six figures. If he says there are many, how many could that be?"

"Maybe there's really a possibility. Don't forget, he was able to make the testing crystal glow to half on his first try. He's practically a monster. It's not surprising if something unusual happens with such a monster!"

...

Charles entered the first level of the Trial Tower. He now found himself in a thick fog where he couldn't see his hand in front of his face, feeling lost.

Once the fog cleared, he saw that he was in a lush, green forest!

"Strange. I was just in the Trial Tower. How did I end up in the woods in the blink of an eye? Could this be an illusion?" Charles's first reaction was that he had fallen into a hallucination.

However, he could clearly perceive everything around him—the sensation of the soil beneath his feet, the sound of the wind in his ears, and the rustling of leaves. Everything felt incredibly real!

Charles took a sniff, and the scent in the air was exactly like reality, it was as if he had truly arrived in a forest.

Just then, from behind the leaves on his right, a wind attribute attack, a [wind blade], sliced through the leaves and came charging at Charles.

Instinctively, Charles used [quick travel] and calmly dodged the ambush!

Immediately after, two figures emerged from the forest, wrapped in white mist, obscuring their faces. However, each of these figures was accompanied by three mystical beasts!

A total of six mystical beasts. The two white figures' Beast Masters surrounded Charles.

Charles looked at the scene before him, surprised. Was he really facing double the enemies on the first level of the Trial Tower?

Currently, Charles was only a level three Beast Master, and he was about to face two level three Beast Masters in battle, and they were ambushing him!

After assessing the situation, Charles suddenly became excited. Such a battle was quite rare for him. It would have been better if the enemies were level four Beast Masters.

Not wanting to bother summoning Mia, Max, or Mousie, Charles decided to rely solely on his physical abilities and strength to meet this trial head-on!

He was confident in this, after all, he was just a level three Beast Master. It wasn't that much of a hassle!

Just as Charles was about to draw his [black gold long knife], he realized that the long knife in his hand was just an ordinary one. It seemed that in the Trial Tower, he couldn't use his own weapons!

"What about the miracle drug?" The two Beast Masters wrapped in white mist across from him didn't move. Charles wasn't in a hurry, he tried to take out the miracle drug from his storage space but found that there was no response at all.

Charles pondered. He felt that this Trial Tower was a scene constructed in a mental world and had certain rules designed to enhance students' combat abilities and teach some unique combat skills!

With that thought, Charles stopped hesitating. He directly wielded the unknown long knife in his hand and charged at the enemies!

The two Beast Masters wrapped in white mist coordinated well, one commanded the mystical beasts to block Charles's attack while the other used skills to target vital areas on Charles!

However, in the face of Charles's speed, their efforts were simply insufficient!

Charles casually dodged twice and surged forward, slicing through the last wind attribute attack with the long knife, successfully reaching one of the white mist-wrapped Beast Masters!

With a slight twist of his wrist, he leveled the long knife and smoothly struck out, aiming to decapitate the enemy in front of him!

The next ten seconds belonged to Charles as a personal showcase. If anyone were watching, they would surely be amazed by Charles's dodging and attacking process,

because it was incredibly smooth, like a natural bodily reaction. In the face of various situations, Charles was always able to react quickly, resolving crises,

even organizing counterattacks from unexpected angles!

Twenty seconds later,

only Charles remained in the entire forest!

Once again, countless white mists rose, and Charles stood still for a moment. When the mist cleared, he found that the scene before him was indeed inside the Trial Tower!

During the previous battle, Charles seemed to have sensed something different.

When faced with the most dangerous attacks, his mind instinctively recalled the movements of the figures on the stone wall, and he involuntarily wanted to execute them!

However, since Charles had strong control abilities, he suppressed that thought.

Now it seemed that this might be the method for understanding combat skills in the Trial Tower, taught through the figures on the stone wall, and then learned through specific battles!

But the key problem was that there were just too many figures for Charles to learn from, all performing various actions, making it impossible for him to focus!

Thinking about this, Charles returned to the stone wall at the center of the Trial Tower while pondering a solution.

As he was contemplating, the crowd outside the Trial Tower became restless:

"Oh man, did I just see that right? He just entered the first level, and it's already over?"

"You're not mistaken, the big screen shows it clearly—only thirty-three seconds!"

"Wow, that should definitely get him in the top ten rankings, right?"

"Not quite, but it's still pretty impressive, especially since he faced two Beast Masters of the same level, one of whom ambushed him!"

"Don't remind me, I didn't even react in time during my first attempt and got decapitated right away!"

Camilla and Zachary listened to the chatter around them. Zachary said to Camilla, "Against two Beast Masters of the same level, I should be able to take them down in that time!"

As he spoke, he tightly clenched his fists, still harboring the thought that he wasn't much worse than Charles!

"I can't do that, especially not against an ambush. Charles is really impressive." Camilla replied, shaking her head. She was speaking the truth.

What no one knew was that Charles had not only refrained from summoning mystical beasts but had also delayed a bit of time due to his thoughts. Otherwise, he would have finished even faster!

At that moment, Charles was sitting in front of the stone wall, and suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.

Since the staff said to clear his mind as much as possible, it meant that overthinking would affect his understanding of the stone wall!

His problem wasn't a lack of comprehension or insight, it was that he was overwhelmed by too much information with too many figures to learn from.

With this in mind, Charles looked back at the stone wall, thinking about his alchemy knowledge as he gazed at it.

This method turned out to be effective!

In his eyes, the figures on the stone wall had diminished somewhat, no longer overlapping to the point of being dazzling.

Unfortunately, there were still too many, it still wasn't few enough!

Charles gritted his teeth, recalling the moment he walked down the street with Catherine, her smile constantly resurfacing in his mind, etched in memory!

The figures on the stone wall before him rapidly decreased until only the last one remained, the one he had understood the most. Charles slightly controlled the longing in his heart.

As time passed, that figure continued to move, its speed increasing until it ultimately vanished completely!

Charles understood that he had learned enough, it was time to test himself in actual combat.

Without any delay, he headed toward the second level of the Trial Tower.

Meanwhile, outside the Trial Tower, someone pointed at the large screen, exclaiming, "Look! Charles has entered the second level!"

"How is the time so short? He should at least spend half an hour in front of the stone wall to gain something!"

"Maybe he didn't comprehend anything at all and chose to enter the second level instead?"

"That's just jealousy talking. Why don't you consider that he might have comprehended everything, and only after the figures on the stone wall disappeared did he choose to move on?"

"Do you really think that's possible? Genosha Cyber Academy has been around for years, and no one has ever done that. Charles definitely can't either!"

"I think it's possible. The rest is just the understanding needed in actual combat. He might grasp the combat skills within a week!"

"Impossible! Not a chance!"

The person who supported Charles was being rebutted by those around him. Nobody believed his claim, the speed was too fast, completely unrealistic!

Feeling somewhat frustrated, he replied, "Just wait, when Charles comes out, I'll ask him myself!"
