The temperature of the room, which was already hot from Tucker's attacks earlier, suddenly rose significantly, to the point that even Tucker, who was used to heat, started to feel uncomfortable. 

Feeling something trickling down from his forehead, he reached up to touch it. "Sweat? I'm sweating?"

As a fire Elementalist, his body was capable of withstanding against extreme heat, and it was rare for him to sweat. 

"This kid is something," he murmured with a chuckle as he wiped his sweaty forehead. 

Unlike him, sensing the impending danger, Cyrus ran to the furthest part of the room, away from Juin, and took off his sweat-stained shirt before crouching down on all four and watching Juin. 

Meanwhile, in order not to lose face, Tucker could only stand still and stare at Juin, who remained unmoved. 

"Is it…" Tucker cleared his throat, which seemed to have constricted suddenly, and asked, "Is it coming anytime soon?" 

This was the first time Juin used this attack in real life, so it took him some time to form the spell diagram in his Soul Dimension, but once he did, an arrogant smirk appeared on his face. 

And at the same time, two rays of crimson light appeared in his hands, which were lying by his sides limply. Lifting them, he clasped them together before pulling them apart, upon which the same diagram that he formed in his Soul Dimension appeared in front of him. 

At first, the diagram was just a few inches big, but it soon became as big as Juin. The temperature in the enclosed room rose again, and Tucker soon starting to sweat profusely. 

"This power…" Tucker mumbled, immediately getting a defensive spell ready, in case the strength of the attack was out of his expectation. 

All of a sudden, Juin jumped up into midair, and the diagram moved along with him. Hovering in midair with the help of his soul power, Juin put his right fist forward. The red diagram converged and covered Juin's right fist, and immediately after, a bright, red light shot out from the top and bottom of the fist, forming into a flaming bow that had black lines running in them. 

At the same time, on Juin's left fist, a flaming arrow appeared. And like the bow, the arrow had a black line running around its body and tip.

Glancing at his soul power weapon, Juin smiled... and he failed to notice the frown on Lucifer's face nor his worried gaze. 

"What the…" Tucker's eyes lit up when he saw the flaming bow and arrow, as well as the strength that was embedded in the bow and arrow. He had seen soul power weapons before, but for someone who had just joined the supernatural world for less than a year to be able to use it… that was unheard of.

So engrossed he was with the spell that he did not even realize the foreign black lines on them. 

A small smile soon appeared on his face when he realized that President Presley had given him a talented student instead of a dud, and he started to daydream about all the possibilities and destinies that he could achieve with the help of his new student. 

Before this, he thought that his new student was just someone who got lucky… But it looked like he was wrong. 

By the time he got out of his daydream, Juin had raised the arrow and placed it on the arrow rest and had drawn the burning bowstring. Standing in midair, his expression was serious as he aimed the arrow at his new teacher.

"Oh oh…" Tucker's eyes widened at the unexpected aura that he was sensing now. "I might actually get hurt from this…" 

Meanwhile, with his eyes narrowed at Tucker, Juin roared, "One Phoenix Arrow!" 

When he released the arrow…

SWISH!

The arrow shot out, moving as fast as lightning and heading straight for Tucker's head. 

At that moment, the arrow seemed to have disappeared from his view, and all that mattered was the magnificent being heading toward him.

"H… How majestic…" Tucker's eyes were completely on the phoenix. He had never seen such a thing before, and the phoenix before his eyes looked extremely real, almost as if he could touch it. 

And in his trance-like state, he did reach out with his right hand, as if he wanted to touch the phoenix that was flying toward him. 

"Tucker!" A voice appeared in his mind, but Tucker ignored it, completely entranced by the beautiful phoenix in front of him. 

Suddenly, a bright, red glow appeared underneath his c.h.e.s.t, and in a split second, a bright, red Eastern dragon with two arm-length horns burst out from within his c.h.e.s.t and wrapped its 10-meter long body around Tucker, forming a protective layer. 

"What the…" Juin's eyes widened as he stared at the dragon that burst out from within Tucker.

When Lucifer saw the dragon opening its jaws, he immediately yelled, "Voice Shield!"

Juin did as he was told and created a shield that could defend his ears from loud noises. He then glanced at Cyrus. Thankfully, Cyrus' shield was already up.

….

"ROARRR!!!" the dragon roared loudly at the arrow, as if it wanted to shoo it away. 

The earsplitting roar created a sonic boom, but the arrow managed to cut through the sonic boom while losing only a small momentum. 

"Oops…" Thanks to the deafening roar, Tucker finally got out of his trance and yelled, "Dragon Shield!" 

A golden layer wrapped around the dragon, forming another layer of shield that had scale-like formation.

BAM!!!

The Phoenix Arrow contacted with the Dragon Shield, pushing Tucker back a few steps. However, it seemed that its strength was still significantly lower than the Dragon Shield as it remained stuck on the Dragon Shield for a long time as it tried to penetrate the first layer of Tucker's defence. 

"Grrr…" Opening its mouth, the dragon s.u.c.k.e.d in the Phoenix Arrow as if it were just a piece of cotton candy. Once the Phoenix Arrow was gone and it was safe, it growled slightly before unwrapping Tucker and slapping the back of Tucker's head with its tail. 

SL.A.P!

"Ouch!" Tucker rubbed the back of his head. "I could have handled it, you know…" 

"Pfft…" The dragon transformed itself into a smaller version, one that was just about three-meter long, before coiling itself on the ground and resting its head on its coiled body.

"Ah, it's kind of cute…" Juin thought as he dispersed the remainder of his soul power and looked at the dragon that was yawning loudly.

Tucker sighed as he looked at his haughty dragon spirit beast. His spirit beast was strong, but it was also extremely hard to tame. It took him more than 20 years before he could tame the beast, but even so, the dragon still had a mind of its own… making it not as adorable as the other spirit beasts. 

He then turned to Juin, who had floated down onto the ground and was now looking at the dragon with a curious expression.
