'This kid's got something.'
Elder Li and Vice Gang Leader Zhao exchanged a look, the same thought flashing through their minds.
Master Zhang panicked.
His earlier leisurely demeanor was gone. He fumbled frantically, pulling out one oil-paper packet after another from his robes.
Tang Wen continuously calmed the Water Spirit, telling it not to be eager to leave its cage, while secretly cheering on his opponent:
'Hurry up!'
'Tame it faster!'
'Just skip all the complicated steps!'
'You're not some no-name Beast Tamer, you're a Half-step Master…'
He managed to stall for a good ten-plus minutes.
Suddenly, the female Water Spirit, who was carrying a young one, awoke from her sleep. Her eyes were filled with worry as she looked at her mate and child.
She let out a series of low roars.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
The female Water Spirit began kicking the cage.
Her mood turned violent.
'Not good!'
