CHAPTER 977 THE POWER OF ROBIN'S ICE STRIKE
'I had planned to let Robin experience and overcome all the trials on its own. But now, it seems that I
should step in and help, ' Rocky thought to himself. He stood up and said to Woods, "I have to leave
now. I'll be back in a while." Then, he turned around and walked to a remote corner at the bottom of the
beast arena.
Once he was sure that no one else was around, he began to use the Mysterious Beast Transformation
Skill to activate the spiritual power connection between him and Robin. A glowing light enveloped his
whole body.
At that moment, Robin was struggling in the beast arena, unable to defend itself against the Divine
Water Tiger's continuous attacks. All the spectators were excitedly whispering among themselves,
certain that the victory had been decided. After all, no matter how strong a spirit-manipulated beast
was, it would not be able to resist the strong and violent attacks from such a powerful opponent like the
Divine Water Tiger.
However, to everyone's surprise, the Divine Water Tiger suddenly shot out of the water mist in the
middle of the beast arena and fell to the ground as if it had been hit by a strong force, leaving two long
grooves on the ground.
The spectators gasped in surprise before going deathly silent.
In the arena, a figure similar to a wolf slowly walked out of the mist, emitting a strange light that was
pulsing with power. In the meantime, the ferociousness on its human-like face disappeared and was
replaced by a calm expression. The figure turned out to be Robin.
"Release your power further." Rocky, who was standing at the bottom of the beast arena, suddenly
opened his eyes.
The very next moment, Robin raised its head and lifted its thick upper limbs as it roared to the sky. Its
aura, which was at the fourth grade of the four-star level, suddenly burst out and increased again,
breaking through to the fourth grade of the five-star level.
The spectators all held their breath as they watched Robin, unwilling to miss even a split-second of the
amazing scene that they were witnessing. It was shocking enough that Robin had directly broken
through to the fourth grade of the four-star level from the third grade of the three-star level, which
almost no beast had done before. But now, it had made such a dramatic breakthrough once again after
such a short time! What was more, this time, its physical form did not change or evolve, almost as if it
had already been hiding this power inside.
None of the spectators knew that the improvement of Robin's aura could not be attributed to its own
ability. Rocky was the one who, using the connection of the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill, had
activated the hidden power within Robin. It was similar to activating Spirit Possession, which would
temporarily make Robin more powerful.
In fact, this reverse usage of the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill was an idea that had struck
Rocky while he was using Spirit Possession with Ken. He had been thinking about how to better
activate Ken's internal power and speed up its growth since he knew that Ken had inherited the power
of a guardian beast. After using Spirit Possession several times with Ken, he had suddenly thought of
this method, but this was the first time that he had actually tried using it.
He hadn't been sure if he could successfully reverse the use of the Mysterious Beast Transformation
Skill to activate the hidden power in Robin's body, but to his surprise, it had worked.
Of course, none of the spectators knew what Rocky was up to, so they all genuinely thought that Robin
had made another giant breakthrough and felt shocked.
Even the more powerful people present, like Lucas, had never seen such a big improvement in such a
short time. Robin's growth wasn't just amazing; it was legendary. This moment would certainly go down
in history.
While the audience was still reeling in shock, Robin suddenly turned into a shadow and rushed toward
the Divine Water Tiger at lightning speed. Its movements were too fast to be seen by the naked eye. In
less than an instant, it had appeared in front of the Divine Water Tiger, almost as if it had teleported
there.
However, the Divine Water Tiger was also quick. As soon as it saw Robin rushing toward it, it
instinctively opened its water shield like an enchanted barrier and enveloped half of its body, preparing
to block Robin's attack.
As soon as Robin noticed the shield, it suddenly bent its strong limbs before leaping into the air like a
cannonball. It reached an astonishing height of more than ten feet into the air before pausing for a
moment and adjusting its posture.
Then, like an arrow, it descended from the sky and swooped down to the Divine Water Tiger on the
ground. Just as it was about to make contact with the water shield, a violent burst of icy air spurted out
from its mouth, causing a cloak of white fog to rise and spread all over the arena.
Upon contact with the icy air, the water shield in front of the Divine Water Tiger froze completely at
once. Without a gap, Robin, which was still descending from the air, waved its claws.
Its powerful ice claw attacks fell onto the Divine Water Tiger's shield like rain, causing a series of
deafening noises to ring out throughout the arena.
Icy mist sizzled and filled the whole arena.
However, to everyone's surprise, the frozen shield in front of the Divine Water Tiger did not break at all.
It seemed that the shield had been able to successfully block Robin's attacks! In that case, Robin still
wasn't that powerful after all.
But in a sudden twist, Robin disappeared from mid-air. For a moment, the spectators looked around in This content belongs to NĂ´/velDra/ma.Org .
confusion.
Then, they realized that Robin had unexpectedly appeared on the right side of the Divine Water Tiger. It
crossed its two claws and then shining icy light burst out. With the constant gathering of strong ice
force, both of its claws fiercely and suddenly slashed out a huge cross-shaped ice strike.
The strike broke through the air and shot toward the ice shied at an astonishing momentum.
Immediately, the frozen shield that protected the Divine Water Tiger broke into pieces.
It all happened so fast that the Divine Water Tiger wasn't able to produce another water shield in time.
Hit by the ice strike, it flew back and landed on the ground. The ground sank under the impact, sending
dust flying everywhere. The Divine Water Tiger rolled on the ground a few times after landing, but it
was so badly injured that it wasn't able to get up again.
The whole arena instantly buzzed with noise. It was hard for the audience to believe that a spirit-
manipulated beast could launch such complicated attacks. First, Robin froze the Divine Water Tiger's
water shield. Then, it launched ice claw attacks as bait to confuse its opponent. Next, it used the icy
mist caused by the ice claw attack to hide its body and silently approach the poor Divine Water Tiger.
Lastly, it launched a fatal attack.
The last blow had been the most unexpected one. The power of Robin's ice strike was comparable to
the power of spiritual martial arts at the Supernal Stage, which was enough to petrify any warriors at
the Supernal Stage.
