Dual Cultivation: Beasts and Women!

"Same place as you. You're going to accompany the removal of your opponent from the cage, right? I'm going to start my shift in the hall now and I'll probably take part in the removal of such a beast," he said confidently.

But Liam wasn't sure if he would help her. He just used that excuse to stay at her side longer and let her feel the power of his ability. The longer he sensitized her, the greater his chances of success were later.

"You work here... I thought you were here to fight like me."

"I'm not ready for that yet. I just joined the sect, so I'm afraid I don't have the merit points for it." Liam smiled at her as she learned something new about him.

"Did you join the guild recently?" She remembered something she had heard and asked, "Are you the same Liam who fought Susanna in the Arena?"

"That's me." He gestured as if he wanted to introduce himself to her.

'I see. He's not weak, nor is his talent small. Killing Susanna should not be a simple task, even for experienced cultivators. But he did it as a newcomer to the sect.' She looked at Liam with different eyes.

Power was what Electa respected the most!

The two walked the rest of the way to the cages wing in silence until they reached a group of Leopard men preparing to take up their duties.

Seeing Liam arrive to pick up his materials for today's work, Lazarus imagined he was already feeling well, probably a sign of the Refulgent Life Elixir.

"Liam, are you here to work today?" The head of the cage wing asked.

"Yes, Boss Ross. I still have to finish my recuperation, but I'm well enough for the job. I only have a few superficial injuries, but I'm fine." He greeted the man.

Gideon, Liam's service partner for his first month at the salon, stood next to Lazarus while he couldn't help but inspect Electa.

For a brief moment, he licked his lips, mesmerized by the beauty of this black-haired woman. 'Is this the one behind the third realm beast we have to move this morning?' He thought to himself, feeling that he had to use this opportunity to get Electa's attention.

"Chief Ross, I'd like to continue with the initiation of Liam into cage 33," he said in a quiet voice.

Lazarus looked at Gideon, easily understanding his subordinate's intentions, but not caring. For Gideon, dealing with third realm beasts was commonplace. And it should be the same for Liam in the future, so this might be a good chance for Gideon to finish teaching Liam his services in the cage wing.

"All right. Liam, accompany Gideon to retrieve the beast that will face this little lady," Lazarus said, as he held Electa's ID in his hands.

Disciples like Electa could choose the beasts they wanted to fight, so they could follow the movements of these creatures inside the coliseum. If they didn't like the beast, they could choose from the other options available.

Electa and Liam exchanged glances, while Gideon's attention was captivated by the woman's stunning posterior.

Meanwhile, Azariah listened to everything from the barn where he was working, while looking in Liam's direction with an angry expression on his face.

'That should be my honor... Fucking Liam! But since you're here, let's see how you handle it.' Azariah clenched his fists as he glared at Liam.

As much as he expected the Abyss Matriarchs to take action against Liam, it obviously wouldn't happen overnight. Until Liam fell, it would be difficult for him to leave the job of dealing with beast manures and join the Leopards.

In contrast to Liam, who received an invitation to join the faction, Azariah had been making persistent efforts for weeks to capture the attention of his superiors, but unfortunately, all his attempts were in vain.

He followed the group of Liam, Electa, and Gideon from a distance, soon arriving at the area of cages that held the beast that the black-haired woman was to use in her training today.

"Cage 33, Snake Tail Monkey. Would you like to continue with this beast or would you prefer another one, Miss?" Gideon asked as he stopped next to the entrance of the enormous cage, while he and Liam were already dressed in their hall attire.

The black-haired woman glanced toward where the red-furred beast sat in a corner of the cage, wide, flaming eyes staring in her direction.

A shiver ran down her spine, and she felt that this was the right opponent for her—someone dangerous!

'Such a beast will push me to the limit.' She thought as she clenched her fists. "It is perfect. I'll take it, Initiate Gideon."

The greater the pressure of battle, the greater the urge to become stronger. For someone as desperate for power as she was, this was one of the best ways to get stronger.

There were other methods, but they weren't as accessible to a woman of average talent as her. Fighting strong opponents was one of Electa's best options at the moment.

Once again, seeing the signs that Electa could protect his secret in the future, Liam moved on with a smile on his face, eager to finish his five hours of service in the coliseum today.

Thinking about how beautiful Electa was, he wasn't only looking forward to cultivating with her, but also to enjoying her beautiful body!

Until he reached that moment, there were rocks in Liam's way…

As he approached the red beast, a few steps behind Gideon, carefully approaching the creature as the men in the cage wing usually did, Liam felt something strange and put aside his thoughts.

Gideon felt an awful sensation as well, but by the time he realized the problem, it was too late to retreat.

"Shit!"

In a single instant, the large four-meter creature that had been huddled in its corner, staring at them wide-eyed, moved and leaped from where it had been toward the stronger of its two targets.

Gideon couldn't do much more than raise his artifacts in self-defense when he felt one of his weapons fall from his hand and one of the creature's feet hit his right arm.

He felt bones crack as it threw his body against the bars on one side of the cage.

Liam took 10 steps back as he saw the creature's sudden attack on Gideon and immediately realized that something was wrong.

Usually, the creatures in the coliseum weren't this violent. Although it wasn't easy to communicate with these creatures, they were intelligent enough to understand that they would gain nothing by rebelling against their masters. As long as they were restrained, they could live in the coliseum for a long time and eventually become stronger.

That's why they rarely made things difficult for the coliseum staff.

But there was clearly something wrong with the Snake Tail Monkey, something that made Liam take a fighting stance.

'Something is causing pain or confusing the Snake Tail Monkey's mind. To deal with it in this situation, I'll have to use a painful approach.' Liam unsheathed a tool with a pincer function, which was of no use against an enraged beast. He picked up a golden spear, a Third Class item that, once inserted into a body, would seal off a portion of its target's senses and powers.

Thal'Korr materialized next to Liam, while Electa could only observe their situation as the cage was locked.

Amid this, Gideon screamed in pain as he slammed his back against the bars of the cage, the red creature continuing to attack him as if he were the culprit of its scourges.

"Aaaaaaaaaagh!"

Liam took a deep breath and leaped into the air, striking the red creature's back together with Thal'Korr!
