Its body once again unleashed a surge of power, transforming into an orange comet that fiercely hurtled towards Gwen.
Then, he turned his body upside down, and with terrifying momentum, suddenly kicked out.
As she turned, the terrifying kick of Shattered Wind slammed into Gwen's body.
Gwen quickly raised her sword to block, and the kick collided with the longsword in her hand.
Gwen was overwhelmed by that immense force.
A surge of violent power contracted rapidly, but soon it burst forth again in all directions.
Gwen's bone armor trembled slightly after suffering this terrifying blow, almost completely absorbing the horrific power.
The force did not penetrate Gwen's body, but under the powerful impact, her feet still sank into the ground and she was dragged backward for several meters.
Gwen plunged the flaming longsword into the ground, and crimson flames ignited along its trail.
After defeating Gwen, Tiger Boss landed safely on the second floor of the platform.
He twisted his wrist, making a clicking sound, and looked at Gwen with a hint of disdain.
"Not bad strength."
"Unfortunately, you are only a third-tier knight."
At this moment, it stood before Aurelion and August.
Seeing the immense threat approaching, Hilda broke out in a cold sweat, her hand already gripping the hilt of her sword, ready for battle.
However, Tiger Boss paid no attention to the young female instructor behind August, and didn't even bother to look at her.
"And you are not even as good as that knight from before."
After Tiger finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Vanilla behind Aurelion.
"A fellow cat-people."
"Leave with us."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding lords' gazes quickly turned to Xiang Zilan.
Their hearts nearly stopped when they looked at the cat-person dressed as a maid.
If this tiger-man knew that the princess of the Karencia Empire was using Vanilla as a maid.
It would probably be furious at the humiliating treatment its own kind received.
At that moment, the nobles in the arena were all terrified, like geese hearing the bowstring vibrate.
Fearing that the tiger-man might kill Aurelion at any moment, they were terrified.
If Aurelion were to get injured, or even die here...
By then, everything will be over.
Even August followed the tiger-man's gaze, his trembling and worried eyes landing on Vanilla.
However, Xiang Zilan simply clasped her hands to her chest, looked at Tiger Boss with a hint of determination in her eyes, and gently shook her head:
"No……"
Hearing Xiang Zilan's response, Tiger Boss was slightly taken aback, seemingly not quite understanding:
"Why?"
"Have you been stripped of your wildness by humans?"
Xiang Zilan didn't say anything, which surprised Tiger Boss.
Then, its gaze naturally fell upon Aurelion.
However, it did not see the same fear in Aurelion as in the other noble lords.
On the contrary, she remained very calm.
He seemed to be the most composed human being in this auction hall.
Even the king felt fear and dread when he saw him.
So, Tiger Boss lowered its sharp gaze, looked at Aurelion, and asked with a puzzled expression:
"Human, aren't you afraid of me?"
Why be afraid?
Aurelion said with a smile:
"On the contrary, I am now more curious about what will happen to you."
"Um?"
Tiger Boss looked slightly puzzled and leaned back.
It sensed a hint of danger in Aurelion's words.
"Human girl, continue."
What are your opinions?
Aurelion calmly placed her hands on her lap, looking serene and content.
"Opinions? I wouldn't say so."
She simply turned her head and glanced at Gwen, who was nearly unable to continue fighting due to Tiger Boss's attack.
She turned back and glanced at Xiang Zilan, who had just been invited to leave.
Then, he suddenly burst out laughing.
What are you laughing at?
Tiger Boss's gaze sharpened, and he stared intently at Aurelion in front of him.
"No, I just suddenly thought of my teacher."
"He is not only protective of his own, but also holds grudges."
Aurelion said with a smile.
"Actually, I've always been curious, why would you so readily forget about a powerful mage?"
Tiger Boss then came to his senses and straightened up.
"Um?"
Are you talking about that mage who just boasted that he would spend 100 million to buy all of their demi-humans?
It acknowledged that the mage from before was indeed powerful.
But every demi-human present was extremely powerful.
Besides, Tiger Second Brother was there too, so he didn't need to worry about that mage causing any trouble...
Tick-tock
Whoosh—
"Is this...rain?"
Is it raining?
Suddenly, large, cold raindrops began to pour down from the sky.
Rain fell on Tiger Boss's face, trickling down his fur and whiskers until they gathered together and dripped down.
A torrential downpour instantly filled the entire damaged auction hall, and countless nobles couldn't help but look up.
The once clear stars have been obscured by thick, dark clouds, and not a single glimmer of starlight can be seen anymore.
Only large raindrops kept pattering onto their lead-colored robes.
Tiger Boss looked up, his sharp gaze piercing through the auction hall and sweeping towards the vast royal city.
