Chapter 1139   Battle Is About to Begin

….

The battle was imminent, yet Allen Smith remained as calm as usual.

Allen Smith looked at Liu Yan, awaiting his instructions.

Liu Yan nodded slightly, signaling for Allen Smith to take the stage.

Seeing this, Allen Smith stepped into the teleportation array and onto the battlefield.

Simultaneously, on the opposite side of the barrier, another giant lion emerged from the teleportation array.

However, this giant lion was noticeably different from its predecessors. It was slightly larger, and its entire body was adorned in a green hue, giving it a peculiar appearance.

On the battlefield, Huang Yuan’s expression shifted when he witnessed this scene. “It’s a giant green lion!”

“What does that mean?” Liu Yan asked Huang Yuan, puzzled.

Lu Dajiang, Wei Feng, and the others also looked to Huang Yuan for an explanation, indicating their lack of knowledge about the Lion Clan.

While Huang Yuan shared the same territory with Lu Dajiang and the others as teammates, his experiences differed. Huang Yuan frequently led expeditions outside, returning to the territory only every few months. This exposure granted him more extensive knowledge and understanding of various territories, including the Lion Clan.

Explaining calmly, Huang Yuan said, “I haven’t encountered the Lion Clan myself, but I’ve heard about them. Typically, giant lions have yellow fur, but occasionally, there are mutated species with entirely different colors. This green giant lion is one of those mutations! Mutated species like these boast superior talents and stronger combat strength compared to regular giant lions of the same level. The giant lion Alan Smith faces likely possesses formidable combat strength.”

Upon hearing Huang Yuan’s explanation, the others gained clarity.

In essence, the green giant lion confronting Allen Smith was a mutated specimen. Its combat strength exceeded that of ordinary giant lions faced by Ye Yifan, Luo Wei, and Murong Xue, making the battle significantly more challenging for Allen Smith.

“It seems this battle will be quite arduous. Alan Smith may struggle,” Ye Yifan remarked, expressing concern.

Luo Wei added, “This giant lion is unpredictable. It suddenly switches to a mutated species. It’s only been a few battles!”

Murong Xue also chimed in, “That’s understandable. After all, they’ve lost several matches already and even lost a member. They’re probably starting to take things seriously.”

Lu Dajiang said, “I was hoping to witness Allen Smith’s combat strength, but it seems like now isn’t the right time!”

Wei Feng chuckled. “Not necessarily. Facing a strong enemy might be the perfect opportunity to showcase Allen Smith’s full potential in combat strength.”

“Really?”

Lu Dajiang looked at Liu Yan with a hint of doubt.

Liu Qingrou and Ning Shanshan also glanced at Liu Yan with curiosity.

They didn’t know much about Allen Smith, so they weren’t aware of his true combat strength or whether he could handle the powerful mutated lion.

But Liu Yan was more familiar with Allen Smith. Judging from Liu Yan’s expression, they could tell.

“Don’t worry.” Liu Yan smiled wryly in response to their curious looks. “Even when facing a formidable opponent, Allen Smith won’t go down easily.”

Liu Yan understood Allen Smith’s capabilities well and knew he had many tricks up his sleeve.

Even against significantly stronger opponents, Allen Smith could hold his own for a while. He might even turn the tide!

Hearing Liu Yan’s reassurance, their eyes lit up with anticipation. They hadn’t expected Liu Yan to be so confident in Allen Smith.

At that moment, they were eager to see if Allen Smith could take on the powerful mutated opponent!

On the battlefield, Allen Smith and the giant green lion faced each other.

A barrier separated them, vanishing only when the true battle commenced.

The giant green lion remained motionless, its gaze fixed on Allen Smith with an air of indifference. Unlike its predecessor, it didn’t exude the same aggression, nor did it harbor much animosity in its eyes.

The calm gaze of the giant green lion seemed to regard Allen Smith as nothing more than a passerby, devoid of any malice.

However, with its green fur, it looked somewhat ominous no matter how one looked at it, making people hesitate to underestimate it.

Alan Smith remained even more composed. He stood silently, not even drawing his sword, his expression plain as if this battle had no relevance.

This sight puzzled the giant green lion on the opposite side. Despite its evident superiority in strength, how could its opponent remain so serene?

At this moment, the Will of Tower had already sounded its announcement, signaling the beginning of the final countdown. The battle between Alan Smith and the giant green lion was about to commence!

The moment the countdown reached zero, the barrier between them vanished instantly.

The previously calm giant green lion charged towards Alan Smith.

Despite its enormous size, it moved with surprising agility.

Yet, Alan Smith remained unmoved, appearing serene as if he hadn’t reacted at all.

In an instant, the giant green lion reached Alan Smith.

At this point, the giant green lion couldn’t fathom what the peculiar human before it was doing. Nevertheless, it paid little heed and lunged at Alan Smith with its claws.

Only then did Alan Smith finally spring into action.

The SS-grade Dragon-scaled Fiery Armor on his body radiated a brilliant red light, a testament to his fire attribute elemental power pushed to its limits.

Simultaneously, the twin swords in Alan Smith’s hands swiftly left their sheaths.

One was the S-grade Burning Wind Dual Sword, and the other was the S-grade Blood Flame Sword.

The fusion of fire and wind attribute elemental powers intensified their might.

In an instant, Alan Smith collided with the giant green lion.

Despite the giant green lion’s colossal stature, Alan Smith gained the upper hand. Under his relentless assault, the giant green lion was forced to retreat!
