In the iron cage, the Fire Flame Lion stood upright, a rare hint of seriousness in its eyes.

"Roar!"

The Fire Flame Lion stared at Qin Yang who was standing still across from it, let out a deafening roar, and its fiery red fur quickly became enveloped in a faint flame.

Beasts have a much stronger sense of danger compared to humans, not to mention the slightly spiritual Fire Flame Lion. The human in front of it made it feel an even stronger sense of danger than the previous two.

"Come on."

Qin Yang smiled lightly.

The Fire Flame Lion exerted force in its four legs, and with incredible speed, pounced towards Qin Yang.

With many people present, Qin Yang naturally wouldn't use methods like talismans. His figure flashed, leading the Fire Flame Lion around the cage for a while, then seized the opportunity to jump and sit directly on the Fire Flame Lion's back.

Qin Yang's thrilling move made the crowd burst into cheers, and the atmosphere on-site became lively again.

"Roar!!"

Feeling the figure on its back, the Fire Flame Lion roared angrily, jumping violently with tremendous force, trying to throw Qin Yang off.

Qin Yang held onto the Fire Flame Lion's fur, sitting steadily on its flame-covered back.

The man and beast tussled for half an hour, and the Fire Flame Lion became somewhat exhausted, its movements slowing down somewhat.

"Tired, aren't you? You now possess a hint of spirituality, I suppose you can understand my words, right?"

A gleam flashed in Qin Yang's eyes, and the aura of a cultivator exuded from him, causing the Fire Flame Lion to stand still, no longer jumping so violently.

"Become my beast companion, and I can help you become a true spirit beast."

There was a confidence in Qin Yang's words.

The Fire Flame Lion paused for a moment, shook its massive head, and its fiery red fur flared again, jumping violently, trying to throw Qin Yang off.

Obviously, this Fire Flame Lion wouldn't submit just because of a few words from Qin Yang.

"You really are a wild one, hard to tame."

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Alright, since that's the case, I'll have to beat you into submission. Giant Strength Technique!"

Qin Yang cast a Giant Strength Technique on himself, his palm glowing white, and jumped off the Fire Flame Lion, grabbing its tail, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, flung the Fire Flame Lion away.

Bang!

The huge body of the Fire Flame Lion flew a distance away and then crashed heavily onto the ground.

Wow!

The spectators were in an uproar, clearly not expecting such great strength to be contained within that not-so-muscular body.

"Brother Qin's strength is truly incredible, to throw this lion like that."

Zhang Wanqing exclaimed in surprise.

A flicker of surprise crossed Long Meiqing's bright eyes; this guy really was no ordinary person.

"Roar!"

Infuriated by the fall, the Fire Flame Lion got up and lunged at Qin Yang again.

However, Qin Yang was faster, dodging the pouncing Fire Flame Lion, grabbing its tail once more, and flinging it away again.

The massive Fire Flame Lion in Qin Yang's hands was like a plush lion, easily thrown away.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After several consecutive throws like this, the Fire Flame Lion was somewhat dizzy, and a hint of fear appeared in its eyes as it looked at Qin Yang.

"Come here."

Qin Yang gestured to the Fire Flame Lion and said.

The Fire Flame Lion shook its big lion head and took a step back.

"Come here, I won't throw you again, but you must be my beast companion."

Qin Yang said.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Flame Lion stood in place blankly for a moment, hesitantly taking a step forward, sensing that the young man in front of it was not an ordinary person.

Seeing the Fire Flame Lion only take one step forward, Qin Yang extended his right palm, spiritual power gathering to form a fiery red orb.

Seeing the fiery red orb, the Fire Flame Lion's eyes lit up with a flash of brightness; the orb had a fatal attraction for it.

The Fire Flame Lion took a few more steps forward, its eyes eagerly gazing at the fiery red Spiritual Power Ball.

With a throw of his right hand, Qin Yang sent the Spiritual Power Ball floating towards the Fire Flame Lion.

Seeing this, the Fire Flame Lion's eyes showed a hint of joy, and it swallowed it in one bite, closing its eyes to digest the Spiritual Power Ball it had just swallowed.

Five minutes later, the Fire Flame Lion opened its eyes, its fiery red fur seeming to have grown deeper and richer.

"The Spiritual Power Ball has some effect on you, but ultimately it's not something you cultivated yourself. Follow me, and someday I'll make you a true spirit beast."

Qin Yang said, looking at the Fire Flame Lion.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Flame Lion nodded its massive lion head and took a few steps forward, coming to Qin Yang.

"Now, I'll draw a Contracted Beast Rune on you."

Qin Yang rubbed the Fire Flame Lion's head, smiling.

After speaking, Qin Yang bit his fingertip, drawing a blood-red ancient rune on the Fire Flame Lion's head.

"With my blood, I bind my beast, rune complete!"

Qin Yang shouted, the blood-red rune flashed, emitting a dazzling light, and then merged into the Fire Flame Lion's body.

At the same time, a connection formed between Qin Yang and the Fire Flame Lion.

The Fire Flame Lion's eyes held no aggression towards Qin Yang; instead, it affectionately nudged Qin Yang with its head.

"Hehe, you won't suffer following me. In a past life, only the King of Lions, the Violet Flame Lion King, caught my eye."

Qin Yang said with a smile, stroking the Fire Flame Lion's soft fur.

"What's Brother Qin doing with that lion? It seems like the lion isn't attacking him anymore."

Zhang Wanqing said in astonishment, looking at the affectionate man and lion in the cage.

Long Meiqing's beautiful eyes were fixed on the scene without blinking; not only was the lion not attacking Qin Yang, but it seemed to have become his pet.

The rest of the audience was also baffled; this had never happened before in the arena, where a man and beast came together like this during a fight.

"The lion has been subdued by me; I think the result of the contest can now be announced."

Qin Yang turned his gaze to Xiaoxiao outside the cage.

Xiaoxiao's face froze, the gladiatorial beast had actually been subdued by him—this was the first time this had happened. However, to subdue a lion in such a short time was even harder than defeating one.

"Um... Sir, our casino has never encountered such a situation before, so I'm afraid we can't consider this your victory. Moreover, although the lion has been subdued by you, it is our casino's gladiatorial beast, and you have no right to take it away."

Xiaoxiao forced a smile, saying. The person in front of her had placed a bet of two billion. If he was declared the winner, wouldn't the casino have to compensate two billion? Furthermore, this lion has an extraordinary background; it is the strongest gladiatorial beast of their casino and cannot be taken away.

"Oh? Subduing should also count as a form of victory, right? If this can't be considered as my win, then what would count?"

Qin Yang raised his eyebrows and said.
