Note: This is bonus chapter for reaching the power stones target.

"Hey Luna, you boasted so much about young master Arul's pet... Now, do you see what's happing?" Mo Zin taunted Luna while pointing her finger at the red python of Arul.
"Sister Mo, the red python of Arul, is hiding behind its master." Immediately another girl joined the fray to taunt Luna, who used to act all proud in the cheerleading group.
Luna failed to refute their mocking, as she lost her reasoning wh she saw Kt standing beside dazzling Fire Kirin.
She used to ridicule Kt with all her girl gang, wh she was in 3rd class. But never in her wildest dreams did she expected Kt to show up like this in front of everyone with a dazzling pet.
As Mo Z and other girls began joking a Luna, a guy shouted from behind in support of Luna.
"Hey, that fellow is just a sixth-grade Magus. Stop mocking Luna just because he has a good pet. Who knows, that Kt guy must have begged a sugar mommy to use this pet for one day." Paul Romeo, the suiter of Luna, who changed his name from Paul Sem, shouted from the back.
Luna immediately exchanged a thankful smile with Paul as she finally found a backing to refute other girls.
"Yes, Kt is definitely a pauper. He purposefully came in at the last minute to show off. How could a sixth-grade Magus be equal to young master Arul?" Luna said in a loud tone while maintaining a proud stance.
The cheerleading girls maintained silce as they didn't want to go against Paul, who is from a rich family. He oft spds lavishly to treat his classmates and siors to maintain his image.
They all accepted Luna into the cheerleading group because Paul treated them to a lavish meal in the first place.
While Luna is lecturing the girls, the countdown in the sky touched zero, and with a loud boom, several flags are released into the sky, in random directions.
Kt held onto the Fire Kirin tightly as he felt the raging spirit inside his pet. The Fire Kirin became more serious than Kt to catch the gold flag.
The intsity of the blazing flames a Fire Kirin increased to a higher level, and ev Mia Snow moved away from Kt to save her peacock.
Just as the gold flag released...
"Ahhhrrr…"
The Fire Kirin, raising its front legs in the air, roared with violet flames. The black mane instantly glowed in pink with a fiery streak.
"Nooo…" Arul, who launched in the air on his red python, suddly fell down as his pet lost its balance due to the loud cry of Fire Kirin.
"Bastard, I will kill you." Arul shouted, trying to softly land on the g. Not only the red python of Arul, but several other pets fell back to the g, frighted by the dazzling fire and heartbreaking roar.
"Sorry… Sorry…" Kt tried apologising to the girl who fell beside him from her bald eagle. But his tone mixed up in the air as the Fire Kirin dashed into the sky like a space rocket.
"Master Ch, is that Kirin an evolved beast?" Elder Cha, who stood on the raised platform, questioned with a dumbfounded look.
Master Ch replied after a brief thought. "No, the Fire Kirin is still young. I have se the patriarch's evolved leapfrog once. This fire Kirin, doesn't have any evolved beast features."
Several discussions ran among the disciples as they all recorded the fire Kirin in the sky. But still, many of them were confused about Kt's idtity.
But out of everyone, Thea is damn sure that he is Kt. But she stood like a statue, thinking about how a pniless 3rd-class magus like Kt is riding on a dazzling wild-ranking Fire Kirin.
At prest, in the sky, the fat king's black bull is racing behind the gold flag. That black bull is directly shooting fire balls against other opponts who dared to come in its path.
According to combat matching rules, The pets can attack other pets. But the disciples shouldn't attack each other, and they also stop their pets from attacking the opponts.
That's why no one complained wh the fat king's black bull shot fireballs. Soon, Kt's Fire Kirin joined the race as it approached close to the gold flag.
Except for the blazing fires, the fat king didn't ev see the pet on which Kt is flying.
With a loud roar, the fat king commanded his bull to shoot a fireball against Kt.
Kt, who is just inches away from the gold flag, stopped in his tracks and turned his face towards the incoming fireball.
Before he ev reacted, the Fire Kirin oped its mouth wide and swallowed the fireball tirely.
"What...?!" The fat king cried out in surprise with wide op eyes. His pet, the black bull, also stopped for a second to see what happed to its fireball.
The crowd erupted in clamor as the same sce is displayed on the Aurora scre of the stadium. Small floating jellies in the air were capturing the combat sce in full clarity.
"Sister Mo, did you see that...?!! It swallowed the fire ball." The girl stood beside Luna cried out with clched fists.
Just as everyone is staring at the Aurora scre to see what's going to happ next...
The Fire Kirin roared angrily and shot a fireball from its mouth, which was three times the size of what it swallowed. More than that, the fireball is burning with violet flames and traveling at great speed.
"N-no… nooo…" The fat king shirked in fear while staring at the incoming fireball. Before he ev thought of escaping, the black bull began falling from the sky as it lost the thought of flying.
But the fireball followed an arc trajectory without letting it escape. The fat king directly jumped away from the bull, ignoring the fact that he is flying high in the sky.
Thankfully, Master Ch came to his rescue. "Sh*t! He is damn heavy." Master Ch muttered while using more aura to fly down.
