The Blue Riolux's speed was so fast that it left afterimages in its wake.
With each flash, it would appear in front of one of Aniqi Lex's lackeys and then strike down fiercely with its paw.
Bang, bang, bang.
Soon, over a dozen lackeys were writhing in pain on the ground.
With its power, the little Blux could easily defeat these lackeys with a casual swipe of its paw.
Each of these lackeys bore noticeable wounds, blood gushing, and the scene was terrifying.
"Battle pet!"
"Ethen Cole's battle pet is actually this strong!"
"Yeah, I didn't even see clearly; the fight was over so fast."
At that moment, the students watching were completely stunned.
They didn't expect Ethen Cole's battle pet to suddenly unleash its power and take down all of Aniqi Lex's lackeys.
What incredible combat strength!
In that instant, everyone's gaze toward Ethen Cole changed.
Everyone knew about Ethen Cole's expulsion and felt pity and sympathy for him.
But now, in addition to sympathy, there was also a profound sense of awe in their eyes.
With the combat power displayed by the Blux, there were probably few challengers in the senior year.
The students had studied battle pet knowledge for years, so they had some discernment.
Especially Hakimi Nash, who was so shocked that his mouth became an O shape.
"Isn't Ethen Cole's battle pet the Blue Riolux? How can it be this strong…"
He and Ethen Cole were good friends and had visited Ethen Cole's home many times, becoming quite familiar with the Blue Riolux.
In his memory, the Blue Riolux was just a little meatball; how could it be so fierce? But the little Riolux standing proudly in the arena was indeed the Blux.
He hadn't mistaken it!
"I need to find some time to ask Ethen Cole about this," Hakimi Nash thought to himself.
At that moment, the most shocked person in the arena was Aniqi Lex.
He never expected Ethen Cole's useless little Riolux to become so formidable, taking down all his subordinates.
A sense of fear shot from his feet straight to the top of his head.
"No, don't come over here!"
Aniqi Lex kept retreating, trying to keep his distance from the little Riolux.
This seemingly harmless little Riolux left a shadow in his mind.
But the Blux had no intention of letting Aniqi Lex go.
As a battle pet, the Blux was in tune with Ethen Cole's feelings.
It could clearly sense its master's anger.
The Blux arched its back, adopting an aggressive stance.
"Ethen Cole, get your battle pet away! This is school; you can't hit me! Otherwise, my uncle won't let you off!" Aniqi Lex shouted anxiously.
His legs trembled and felt weak, making it difficult for him to move.
The Level 5 Black Iron Blux posed a lethal sense of threat to him.
This was normal; an average 18 year old high school boy had a strength level of around 20.
Blux's strength attribute has already reached 60 points, and when using [Powerful Strike], it can reach 120.
The power capable of shattering a concrete utility pole was enough to take Aniqi Lex's life.
As long as Ethen Cole gave the command, the Blux would launch a deadly strike.
At that moment, the tension in the air was at its peak.
Although Ethen Cole hated Aniqi Lex, he also knew that he couldn't let things escalate to the point of causing death.
The laws within the base were very strict; students fighting each other was not a big deal, but if someone died in the base, it would be a serious violation and would lead to harsh penalties from the base's judiciary.
However, Ethen Cole was boiling with anger and felt he had to act.
He immediately kicked Aniqi Lex squarely in the face, sending him crashing to the ground.
Aniqi Lex, paralyzed with fear and unable to move, couldn't mount any effective defense and simply fell to the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
His previously stitched brow bone cracked open again, blood instantly staining half of his face.
Ethen Cole's ruthless actions terrified Aniqi Lex to the core.
"Ethen Cole, please spare me! I won't do it again, I promise…"
Aniqi Lex, disregarding his image, crawled on the ground, begging Ethen Cole for mercy.
Seeing this scene, a look of disgust flashed in Ethen Cole's eyes.
As a young man aspiring to be a great battle pet master, he admired heroes and despised cowards.
Seeing Aniqi Lex's cowardice extinguished any desire Ethen Cole had to continue fighting.
"Hakimi Nash, thanks, but it's not a good time today. I'll treat you next time. Blux, let's go!"
Ethen Cole hugged the Blux and waved goodbye to Hakimi Nash as he strode towards the school entrance.
After walking a few steps, Aina Saffa, who was in charge of student records, chased after him.
"Ethen Cole, wait! Your ID card!"
Aina Saffa handed her ID card to Ethen Cole. At that moment, Ethen Cole reached into his pocket and remembered that he had left his ID card in the student affairs office.
"Thank you so much, teacher. Losing my ID is really troublesome."
Ethen Cole gratefully accepted his ID card.
"No problem. Are you planning to go home now? Do you have time to chat with me? There's a famous coffe shop at the school gate; I'll treat you."
Aina Saffa smiled.
Upon hearing this, Ethen Cole was taken aback.
He didn't understand why this female teacher he had just met was so enthusiastic.
However, he had always understood since childhood that one should try not to trouble others.
So, he politely declined Aina Saffa's invitation.
After expressing his thanks, Ethen Cole left the school with his Blux pet.
Watching Ethen Cole's departing figure, Aina Saffa stomped her foot in frustration.
"Indeed, all genius students have their quirks. What a conceited attitude! But I refuse to believe you wouldn't want to sit down and chat with me."
