The stage slightly shook as Edgar Pierce's Golems charged towards the direction of Guild Leader Loki's Golems. Similarly, the latter's Golems also lunged themselves forward. But, two of them remained by the Guild Leader Loki's side.

In Leo's opinion, even just sending one of his Earth Elementals to fight against Edgar Pierce's Golems would be more than enough to destroy them. Even then, it would still be considered overkill. The only reason why he bothered sending three was that he doesn't want to make it seem like his Golems are far too powerful and superior compared to the latter's Golems. 

A clash between the two side's Golems soon began. 

Boooom! Boooom! Boooom!

Punches were being exchanged between the six Golems, continuously chipping away small pieces of rocks and causing cracks to appear all over their bodies.

However, closely observing the Golems from both sides, it was clearly noticeable that Guild Leader Loki's Golems has the upper hand against Edgar Pierce's Golems. 

The main reason for that was because Guild Leader Loki's Golems seems to be using some sort of techniques when fighting. For example, they don't just simply throw punches, they would sometimes take advantage of Edgar Pierce's Golem's attacks and use those against them. Not only that, but they can also dodge.

"Are my eyes playing a trick on me?" Edgar Pierce can't help rubbing his eyes while observing Guild Leader Loki's Golems.

"Fireball!" Leo cast.

Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Edgar Pierce abruptly turned his head around after hearing Guild Leader Loki casting a Fireball spell.

"Earth Wall!" Edgar Pierce cast, creating two rock walls to block his front.

Booom! Booom!

Muffled explosions sounded as Leo's fireballs landed on Edgar Pierce's earth walls.

"Don't you know that you should never take your eyes off from your opponent?" Leo asked. 

"Of course, I know!" Edgar Pierce responded as he took a glimpse of where Guild Leader Loki was. But as soon as he saw the latter, he quickly hid his head back to his earth walls.

Whoooosh!

Banggg!

An arrow swiftly passed through the previous location where Edgar Pierce's head had withdrawn from just a second ago.

Seeing this, Edgar Pierce gulped down a mouthful of saliva, a bit fearful. He thought, "If I retracted my head even a single second late, an arrow would have no doubt penetrated my head by now,"

"Are you seriously planning to kill me or something?!" Edgar Pierce exclaimed loudly. He really can't believe that Guild Leader Loki nearly killed him. He had not offended the latter even once from the moment he got acquainted with him until now. 

"Guild Leader Loki?" Edgar Pierce asked after not receiving any response from Guild Leader Loki. He was hoping to deduce the latter's location once he replied to him. But to his disappointment, Guild Leader Loki didn't say anything. This instantly made him cautious, as he started looking around his surrounding, including above his earth walls, trying to look for Guild Leader Loki.

Booooom!

While looking around, a loud explosion sounded that interrupted Edgar Pierce from looking around and made his expression turn grave.

"It has only been a minute or so when my Golems and Guild Leader Loki's Golems started clashing with each other. Yet, one of my Golems has already been destroyed!" Edgar Pierce muttered to himself. He added, "Just how strong are his Golems for them to be able to easily destroy the Golems made by the Pierce Noble Household?!"

Booooom!

All of a sudden, another explosion sounded. But this time, Edgar Pierce didn't feel it coming from one of his Golems. Instead, the sound came from the earth walls behind him.

"Oh no!" Edgar Pierce hastily cast another Earth Wall spell. Since one of his Golems is now destroyed, then this means that the Golem that destroyed it could now come and attack him. That explosion just should be an attack from that Golem.

"I wasn't really planning to use this until the grand-finals, but I guess I have no choice but to use it now," Edgar Pierce decided to use one of his secret weapons. Putting his hand forward, he ordered, "Come forth, Sword Mantises,"

Whoooooooosh! Whoooooooosh!

In the next moment, two huge Magic circles appeared from the floor in front of Edgar Pierce. 

Strange flickering white-colored lights shone inside the Magic circles, as they slowly turned into a vague figure of some kind of Magic Beast. 

The figure of the Magical Beast that was being formed is five meters tall and has a long body stretching up to ten meters, with the lower part of its body being a lot bigger than its upper part, which is merely as thin as a tree stem. At the very top, there's an upside-down triangle-like head with two bulging eyes at two corners located on the top. It has six total limbs, with four of them located at the lower part of its body, while the rest on the upper part of its body close to its head. Unlike the former four limbs, though, the latter two limbs were shaped like a blade of some sort of weapon, with its very end looking extremely sharp.

After a few more seconds, the two figures of the Sword Mantises appeared for all eyes to laid upon.

ROAAAR! ROAAAR!

Two loud bellows echoed throughout the stage as the Sword Mantises announced their arrival.

Meanwhile, Leo had already retreated back to his corner. Earlier ago, he was already behind the earth walls that Edgar Pierce had cast to block his fireballs, preparing to launch a surprise attack against the latter. But as soon as he saw the flickering lights on the other side, he quickly decided to go back as he knew already what those lights represent.

He was already very familiar with such a sight as he had witnessed Eilajah also creating something similar to that. It was during that time when the latter summoned Big Happy in front of him. At that time, a huge Magic circle also appeared on the ground and flickering lights shone inside as Big Happy's figure was slowly being created. In a matter of a few seconds, Big Happy, the Griffin, who is a Beast Companion of Eilajah, appeared right in front of him.

Hearing the loud bellow of the Sword Mantises, Leo confirmed his assumption, "As expected, Edgar Pierce was indeed summoning his Magic Beast Companion. And two of them, on top of that!"

Honestly, Leo somewhat expected already that he would eventually encounter a Magical Beast Tamer during the Emerald Elven Battle Competition in one of its rounds. After all, this is the Emerald Tree Kingdom, a Kingdom Territory of the Elf race. As long as it's the Elf race, Magical Beast Tamers would always be present. In addition to that, with the existence of the Emerald Event, it is a given already for this territory to have plenty of Magical Beast Tamers.

"I admit that my Golems can't compete against your Golems. But how about these Sword Mantises?" Edgar Pierce uttered while slowly walking out from the earth walls. Behind him, two huge figures of Sword Mantis were closely following.

Observing the auras of the two Sword Mantises, Leo soon sensed that their cultivation levels were 1-Star level and 2-Star level, respectively. 

"This is going to be troublesome. I really thought that the two Sword Mantises were only 1-Star level, especially considering that Edgar Pierce is a 1-Star level Mage. Hmmm… maybe it's because he's in the peak of 1-Star level, that's why he was able to tame a Magical Beast one level above him, or probably that 2-Star level Sword Mantis started from 1-Star level and he helped it grow to a 2-Star level. Well, we can also consider the fact that he is called a genius," Leo thought to himself. As far as his knowledge goes, these are the only explanations he could think about of how Edgar Pierce was able to summon a 2-Star level Sword Mantis. And above all, tamed another 1-Star level Sword Mantis. 

Anyone could tame and make one Magical Beast as their Magical Beast Companion, but having two of them would be a completely different story. That's the reason why the title Magical Beast Tamer was created, because some people are just talented when it comes to the matter of taming Magical Beast, allowing them to have two or more compared to the other people.

Evidently, Edgar Pierce is also a Magical Beast Tamer, aside from being someone who is excellent in using a lance as a weapon and at the same time a Mage.

"No wonder you are called a genius," Leo complimented. 

"I am also quite surprised about your Golems. Tell me, are you perhaps a Golem Engineer?" Edgar Pierce asked. From what he had learned, only Golem Engineers could create and design Golems that are unique from the normal or average Golems that Mages could create.. The Pierce Noble Household also has a few Golem Engineers, which is where he had gotten his Golems.
