The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 545 Subduing The Rhinoceros King (Part Two)

"That's enough, Violet. One more strike from you and he'll be dead," Austin’s voice cut through the thick air, stopping Violet just in time. Upon his order, Violet obediently dropped her claw that was just about to end the rhinoceros king's life. With a huff, she walked towards Austin's side and contented herself with staring down at the now utterly exhausted rhinoceros with disgust and pure hatred. She was heaving. Despite gaining the upper hand throughout the fight, Violet still had to exert a lot of energy in dealing with the beast. This was mostly because the rhinoceros king's hide had been extremely tough and every time she used her claws, she had to apply a lot of force to make sure he bled from her attack.

It took a lot of swift, efficient, and powerful strikes from Violet to get the rhinoceros into the state he was now.

Having observed their battle, Austin concluded that Violet's strength lied in her instantaneous bodily movement skill, her unpredictable speed, and her illusions. The rhinoceros king's strength and power were in no way inferior to Violet and had he succeeded in actually hitting her with his horns earlier, there was no way she could've survived. The only reason that she was able to overpower him was because of her lightning-fast speed that she was able to use to keep herself from harm's way.

Each strike that Violet had dealt onto the beast was loaded with power and a deep-seated grudge. During the fight earlier, her mind was heavy and only swirled with memories of her painful past as she attacked the rhinoceros king with her claws. Now, seeing him powerless and completely at her mercy, the long-accumulated hatred in her heart began to disperse, leaving only relief and a long-awaited satisfaction. The battle before was fought not just for her, but for all the foxes that had been bullied by him.

Seeing him defeated like this was enough for Violet. She already knew Austin's plans for the rhinoceros king, having used her mind communication skill way before the fight. Austin planned to subdue the beast and have him guard his Austin Palace since he was a powerful sixth-level diabolic beast. Violet understood this so even though killing the rhinoceros king would give her immense pleasure, for the sake of Austin Palace's safety, she refrained from dealing him the final blow. She had focused on striking at his back and on his butt to avoid any crippling injury to his body. So, even if the rhinoceros king was practically bathing in his own blood, he was still going to live.

"Hey, you ugly thing," Violet spat. "Open your eyes and look at me. Do you recognize me?"

She transformed into her natural fox body and stared down at the rhinoceros king in smug victory. Defeating the beast was a thing she had dreamed about so many times. She had never thought it would become a reality, until now of course.

Now, it was time for her to make the rhinoceros king realize just how his past actions had led to this outcome. As he heard the familiar voice, the beast lifted his head faintly and looked up at her. His eyes widened in horror the moment he saw Violet's delicate pink fox body, recognizing her in an instant.

He had bullied a lot of foxes, but he never expected that, out of all of them, it would be her that would come for revenge. He had not thought that Violet had the capacity to increase her strength to such an extent that she would actually be able to defeat him once the time came. He had thought she was just a random fox since her speed made it difficult for him to see her face clearly during the fight.

But now, upon looking and recognizing her, the rhinoceros king finally realized the path that lay before him.

He had lost all hope for life and he mooed lightly in despair.

The haughty, domineering look he had sported earlier was long gone and was replaced with repulsive repentance. He deeply regretted that moment he let that pink demonic fox escape due to his negligence and he regretted even more that he did not bother hunting her down. He blamed himself for underestimating the fox's power and bringing this disaster to himself. Now that she had returned for revenge, there was no way he could ever hope to defeat her. The only thing he could do now was to accept whatever it was she had planned for him, even if it was death. He looked away in shame and closed his eyes, awaiting for the final blow that would finish him.

Violet transformed back into her human shape, "Never in your wildest dreams did you ever think that this would happen to you, huh?

I can just punch you to death if I wished. A couple of strong punches and that's all it would take for me to finish you,” she said in a chilling tone. "If not for my master here, today would've been your last day." The rhinoceros king's eyes widened and looked at Violet questioningly. "Oh, don't think you got lucky," she told him. "From now on, you are nothing but a slave to us. Your bullying and intimidating days are over!" With an anguished cry, Violet pounced on him and began to punch his thick, bloody hide. The anger and resentment from her past had once again bubbled to the surface of her mind.

Austin let her vent for a bit and when it seemed as if she had calmed down, he stepped forward and grabbed her by the shoulder. “That is enough, Violet," he said. "After I have subdued him, you will have all the time in the world to punch him as you like. He will be all yours. For now, leave his despicable life to him until he has amply served us."

Violet nodded, getting off the rhinoceros king and letting her master have him. With a soft smile, Austin crossed his fingers and prepared to activate his Beast-subduing Skill that would allow him to easily absorb the beast soul of any beast and develop absolute control over them. True to its name, the skill allowed him to completely subdue any beast to the point that it would lose any resistance of power in front of him. Gathering his energy, Austin began to cast the spell. Streams of spiritual sense emerged from his Soul Sea and swirled around his fingers as he activated the skill. Then he began to draw various formulas in the air, the finger motions evolving into a variety of mysterious, magical spiritual sense symbols.
