"But why does this creature possess so many powerful Spirit Energy Techniques?"
Generally speaking, except in their own advantageous domains, uneducated Magical Beasts of the Fourth Energy Level cannot defeat prepared humans of the Fourth Energy Level, because Magical Beasts lack weapons, equipment, techniques, and Alchemy, not to mention potions and various Inheritance Sublimation Skills.
Although they have some combat instincts and skills honed over years of hunting, how can they compare to the battle skills refined by humans through thousands of trials?
Yet the fact remains that this strange New Continent Magical Beast is exceedingly skilled in combat, its mastery in spirit energy usage so proficient that even Xike felt fear. If it weren't for the creature's lack of understanding of human thought patterns, Xike felt he would likely have his mental defenses breached within hours and be forced to retreat.
