Chapter 36 concludes.
The flames could not leave the slightest burn mark on the red dragon's scales, and the shockwaves could not tear through its tough wing membranes.
Thor suddenly flapped his wings outwards, and the fierce wind pressure generated by the flapping instantly dispersed the smoke from the explosion.
He raised his head and roared at the stunned young dragons around him.
"See that? This is the power of the Red Dragon! Anyone else want to challenge me?!"
That arrogant aura plunged the onlooking young dragons into a brief silence.
In their early years, before they have awakened much magical ability and racial talent, the strength of blue dragons, green dragons, and black dragons is actually quite similar.
Although Zephyr's strength is not top-tier among all baby dragons, it is still among the first tier.
Even he was defeated so decisively; if any other young dragon had stepped forward, the outcome would probably have been no different.
Zephyr struggled to his feet, a surge of intense humiliation welling up inside him. Ignoring the waves of pain coursing through his body, he lunged at Thor once more.
"You wretched bastard, I haven't lost yet!"
Thor looked at the persistent blue dragon with disdain.
The poison gas he had inhaled earlier had already begun to stiffen Zephyr's body, and coupled with his injuries, his movements were severely distorted. His resistance at this moment was nothing more than a futile, death throes.
Thor used his agile feet to easily dodge Zephyr's pounce, then suddenly charged forward, knocking Zephyr to the ground.
Before Zephyr could get up from the ground, Thor raised one of his red-scaled front paws and stomped down hard, burying half of Zephyr's head into the mud.
"So now! You shameless idiot!!"
A deep roar erupted from Thor's mouth, and through the gaps between his fangs, the flickering flames in his throat could already be seen.
As he spoke, his pale golden vertical pupils swept over the surrounding young dragons, their ferocity and savagery causing every young dragon that met his gaze to feel fear.
At such close range, even if true dragons generally possess elemental resistance, Zephyr would likely lose half his life if he survived the fire breath.
The cunning green dragons blinked silently, while the black dragon hid in the shadows of a corner. The dim-witted white dragon probably hadn't even realized what was happening yet.
But the blue dragon hatchlings could no longer stand idly by.
As the only lawful evil among the five dragons, they still possess some sense of teamwork.
"That's enough!"
"Let go of Zephyr!"
"You jerk, don't get too cocky!"
They all let out low growls, the thorns on their backs stood up, their pterosaur-like wings spread slightly, and they all took a step forward in unison.
Seven or eight young blue dragons were already able to easily raze a small tribe in the wilderness. The fierce aura gathered by their low growls was enough to make some timid creatures' hearts stop.
Sistana and Kalp couldn't help but feel a little nervous. If these guys swarmed at them, their small bodies wouldn't be able to withstand it!
But the innate pride in their red dragon bloodline still made them spread their wings as wide as possible to make their bodies appear larger, while shouting loudly with a fierce but weak voice.
"What do you want to do!"
"We're not afraid of you!"
Thor's claws suddenly tightened, shoving Zephyr's head, which was trying to lift, back onto the ground.
His head, already beginning to resemble a ferocious beast, was held high as he looked at the blue dragon hatchlings surrounding him and said disdainfully.
"Cowards who only stick together for warmth will ultimately only be able to bully the weak with their numbers."
Even if you all combine your strength, the great red dragon will fear nothing!!!
Even so, Thor was actually a little uneasy.
With seven or eight blue dragon hatchlings attacking at once, not only could Sistana and Karp not withstand it, but he himself would also find it difficult to cope.
At worst, he'd just get a beating; those blue dragons probably wouldn't dare actually kill him.
Moreover, thanks to the true dragon's regenerative abilities, especially with the abundance of dragon crystals to replenish itself, as long as it is not killed on the spot, even if the injuries are severe, it can quickly recover.
As time goes by and my strength increases, I can settle accounts with them one by one.
Just as Thor was about to unleash his fury, the blue dragons that had surrounded him stopped in their tracks.
In the eyes of the outside world, the Red Dragon is the undisputed leader of the five-colored dragons. However, among the five-colored dragons, apart from the White Dragon, all the other dragons believe that they are the rightful successors of Tiamat.
Among them, the blue dragons are the most prominent. In their eyes, the red dragons are nothing more than a group of unintelligent brutes, and they try their best to deny the red dragons' assessment of them as "cowardly and weak".
If you encounter someone in the wild, it's not a big deal to gang up on them and beat them up.
But now there are so many young dragons watching, including those with ill intentions like green and black dragons. If they were to gang up on them, wouldn't that confirm that they are the cowardly bunches that the damned red dragon was talking about?
A young blue dragon leaped out from its companions, its size noticeably larger than the other blue dragons. It looked indifferently at Thor and said:
"You've only defeated the weakest of us. What's there to be proud of? At the next full moon, we will prove the power of the Blue Dragons to you."
Now that Zephyr has been released, Lady Lelia will not tolerate death in the fighting between young dragons. Do you wish to challenge her authority?
Thor looked into the blue dragon's amber eyes, then, knowing when to stop, released his grip on Zephyr's head and let out a wild laugh:
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Well said, I'm waiting for your challenge."
And you all, I'm always ready to be with you.
"Let me show you cowards what true strength is!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding young dragons all bared their teeth and grimaced.
Zephyr got up from the ground dejectedly and returned to the Blue Dragon's ranks without saying a word.
Two consecutive failures in full view of everyone were a huge embarrassment for Blue Dragon, making him feel that the gazes of his companions around him were filled with contempt and coldness.
The farce came to an end, the young dragons that had surrounded him dispersed, and Thor's tense nerves finally relaxed.
These damned guys actually tried to intimidate me on the very first day. Once I grow up, I'll definitely trample them under my feet and crush them mercilessly.
He then turned to look at Sistana and Calp behind him and found that the two of them were looking at him with envy, wishing they could take his place.
For the red dragon, displaying its power in front of more than twenty real dragons was definitely something to be proud of.
But Thor, possessing a human soul, didn't care much for such lowbrow entertainment. It wasn't until he focused his attention on the giant spinning wheel in his mind that he truly felt a sense of pleasure.
The intense emotions emanating from those young dragons provided him with nearly 5 points of spiritual essence, almost equivalent to two months of normal accumulation.
From this perspective, being captured and taken to Dragon Castle doesn't seem like such a bad thing.
Although some freedom will be lost, the speed of strength growth will be greatly increased, and it is expected that a high-level draw will be performed before reaching adolescence.
If he were to continue as before, relying on Sistana and Karp to gradually subdue his followers and depend on them for spiritual essence, it would be impossible to accumulate 10,000 points in the long run.
