"Wait."
Zhou Luo used his Battle King Glasses to scan, and the data of this Exotic Beast immediately appeared before his eyes.
[Exotic Beast: Tank Warhog!]
[Level: 6!]
[Ultimate Move: Desperate Charge!Evaluation: Avoid its sharpness!]
"Such a high level!"
"This is a level 6 Tank Warhog. Tank Warhogs are famous for their super defense and formidable strength. We're only level 3—even with moonlight enhancement, we're no match for it!"
"Unless you use your ultimate move, Thunder Crescent Slash, but your level is too low to unleash it properly!"
Fire Thunder fell silent upon hearing this. Indeed, a level 6 Tank Warhog was beyond his ability to handle.
"Then... what should we do?"
"We can let the snipe and clam fight while the fisherman profits. Let's wait quietly for a destined one—no, a destined beast!"
Zhou Luo confidently flashed a smile.
A delicious Tank Warhog like this—he refused to believe no predator would come for it.
And so, Zhou Luo watched the frenzied Tank Warhog below.
Due to the terrifying aura of the Tank Warhog, all the low-level Exotic Beasts on the street had long since fled.
A few minutes later.
Under the watchful eyes of Fire Thunder and Zhou Luo, a dark shadow swiftly approached from the distance.
In the blink of an eye, the Exotic Beast landed on a high wall.
"Turns out it's an old friend." Zhou Luo smirked, studying the Bloodthirsty Tiger below with great interest.
This Bloodthirsty Tiger was enormous, its thick limbs supporting its massive body.
Under the faint moonlight, its fur shimmered with an eerie glow, its coarse hair standing up like steel needles. Its sharp claws reflected a cold gleam under the moonlight, like the scythe of death, sending chills down one's spine.
"What's wrong with this Tank Warhog? Even the Bloodthirsty Tiger's intense aura hasn't caught its attention?"
The Tank Warhog's abnormal behavior puzzled Zhou Luo.
By now, the Bloodthirsty Tiger had already assumed a hunting stance, its bloodthirsty eyes locked onto the Tank Warhog, its lowered body ready to deliver a fatal strike at any moment.
In the blink of an eye.
The Bloodthirsty Tiger roared and pounced, a pungent smell of blood assaulting the senses.
Only then did the Tank Warhog notice the attacking Bloodthirsty Tiger.
It turned around, raised its tusks high, and charged forward.
"Boom!!"
The two massive Exotic Beasts collided instantly, their ferocity fully ignited, kicking up thick clouds of dust.
"Holy shit, that's insane! Nice!" Zhou Luo was startled.
This Tank Warhog didn't even run upon seeing the Bloodthirsty Tiger—instead, it charged at it like a madman.
[Exotic Beast: Bloodthirsty Tiger!]
[Level: 7!]
[Ultimate Move: Powerful Bite!]
[Evaluation: Run for your life!]
A level 7 Bloodthirsty Tiger was actually being suppressed by a level 6 Tank Warhog. Zhou Luo could only exclaim in awe.
Did this Tank Warhog take some kind of drug?
It even made the Bloodthirsty Tiger lose confidence.
Though the Bloodthirsty Tiger was stronger than the Tank Warhog, taking a direct charge from it was no joke. The Tank Warhog's tusks were terrifying—one hit would leave two bloody holes.
This made the Bloodthirsty Tiger hesitant to attack head-on.
Instead, it circled the Tank Warhog, launching attacks from the sides.
Within minutes, Tank Warhog's body was covered in deep claw marks, while Bloodthirsty Tiger had also suffered a collision, blood trickling from its mouth.
Suddenly, an eerie red glow emanated from Bloodthirsty Tiger's maw. With a furious roar, it lunged forward again.
"Bloodthirsty Tiger's ultimate move—Powerful Bite!"
The tiger's speed was overwhelming, highlighting the level disparity. Tank Warhog barely had time to react before its throat was clamped shut.
Tank Warhog thrashed wildly, its wounds widening with each desperate movement. The sheer weight of Bloodthirsty Tiger hanging from its neck filled it with terror.
It repeatedly rammed into walls, trying to shake off the tiger.
With a piercing shriek, Tank Warhog unleashed its own ultimate technique—Desperate Charge!
The more dire Tank Warhog's situation, the greater the power it could muster.
Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Luo and Fire Thunder, Tank Warhog slammed Bloodthirsty Tiger hard into the hotel wall where they stood.
After the impact, Tank Warhog collapsed weakly to the ground, only its claws twitching faintly—its last breath hanging by a thread.
Bloodthirsty Tiger's mouth was drenched in blood, though it was unclear whether it belonged to Tank Warhog or itself.
"Fortune favors the bold—now's our chance!"
There was no better moment than this—an opportunity of a lifetime.
"Vehicle Warrior! Charge!!"
Zhou Luo soared through the air and merged into Fire Thunder's chest.
Under the control of the Mech Battle King, Fire Thunder's aura surged dramatically. Without hesitation, Fire Thunder smashed through the wall and leaped into the air.
Coincidentally, the full moon emerged in the sky, and both Fire Thunder and Zhou Luo felt the potent energy of moonlight.
"Heaven helps us!"
The dense lunar energy poured into Fire Thunder's Frost Moon Blade, enveloping the massive weapon in an eerie blue glow.
"Slash!!" The combined voices of Fire Thunder and Zhou Luo thundered above Bloodthirsty Tiger.
The tiger jerked its head up in alarm.
The next instant, its pupils shrank to pinpricks. Reflected in its eyes was a crimson-clad Vehicle Warrior executing a mountain-splitting strike—the Crescent Moon Blade descending with crushing force toward its skull.
With its formidable physical control, Bloodthirsty Tiger twisted aside.
But against Zhou Luo's perfect synchronization with his mech, evasion was futile—it had no choice but to take the blow head-on.
"Boom!!" The Frost Moon Blade cleaved into Bloodthirsty Tiger's neck, the terrifying force sending it flying. The massive beast crashed heavily to the ground.
Instead of pressing the advantage, Zhou Luo delivered a swift, effortless slash to finish off Tank Warhog beneath them.
A deep blue combat energy emerged from Tank Warhog's remains.
After absorbing the energy, Fire Thunder and Zhou Luo effortlessly broke through to Level 4—everything falling perfectly into place.
[Mecha: Fire Thunder!]
[Level: 4!]
[Race: Vehicle Tribe!]
[Ultimate Move: Thunder Crescent Slash!]
[Evaluation: A Sports Car Clan Warrior from the City of Time, his name is Fire Thunder. His combat style is as swift, domineering, and majestic as his namesake.]
"Excellent, the ultimate move is unlocked." With this new power, even a Level 7 Bloodthirsty Tiger no longer intimidated them.
"Roar!" An enraged bellow echoed.
Though deafening, Zhou Luo merely chuckled dismissively.
All bark and no bite.
Bloodthirsty Tiger struggled to rise, its neck bearing a deep gash—Zhou Luo's strike had nearly severed it entirely.
"What a pity, I didn't manage to kill it instantly!" Zhou Luo sighed.
If anyone had heard Zhou Luo's words at the scene, they would surely have scolded him for showing off.
A third-level fighter severely wounding a seventh-level Bloodthirsty Tiger with a single strike, bringing it to the brink of death.
Was this something a human could even achieve?
"My lord, it seems like it still wants to exchange a few moves with us," Fire Thunder couldn't help but tease the Bloodthirsty Tiger, as he could clearly see the beast was already drawing its last breaths.
