Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave novel Chapter 443

His disbelief didn't arise from the thought that flood dragons could not have burst out a momentum of that degree. Indeed, they were perfectly capable. The momentum that had just broken out in the battle ring was strong and for the disciples of the younger generation, it was certainly extremely frightening. But in eyes of Kenneth, Elder Xu and other elders who were at comparable levels to them, it hardly deserved a mention in powerful forces of the time.

If a real flood dragon had burst out a roar, it would have been powerful enough to turn an entire hilltop into powdery dust.

It wasn't the power that Kenneth found formidable. Instead, it was the feeling that roar was giving Kenneth which made him ponder and had him worried.

There was something about it, as if it had experienced a nirvana and was now standing at the highest level, looking down on all living creatures as if they were nothing at all. This kind of otherworldly feeling could not have been brought onto him by a flood dragon at all.

The flood dragon was an aquatic creature with power over storms and floods, but was not a legendary beast. It was merely a close relative of one since it had dragon lineage behind it.

What Kenneth was worried about was the fact that such a powerful effect could only have been achieved by A GENUINE DRAGON!

He started pondering over things. The idea was a bit far-fetched but the effect he felt was coming from a super legendary beast!

"It's not from a flood dragon?" Elder Xu asked in astonishment. His eyes were full of an incredible expression. "Are you trying to suggest that it has come from a genuine dragon instead?"

Kenneth nodded slightly and replied in a solemn tone, "Yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking right now."

"Impossible…" Elder Xu immediately denied the idea when he heard it, almost out of reflex, completely forgetting that he was talking to his leader at the moment. "A genuine dragon doesn't exist. It is the product of legends, and a figment of our imagination!"

The world was a big place. There were some people who had practiced hard and made their way to the peak level of martial arts. Then there were those who liked to make up stories and legends about martial artists and legendary creatures.

Several years ago, a book called "The General Explanation about Legendary Beasts" suddenly found itself on the market and gained quite a bit of popularity. It spread all the way from the Central Region to the Eastern Region, with various pirated versions, and its popularity was such that the number of copies sold on the black market too was unfathomable.

All the public's common knowledge about legendary beasts and super legendary beasts had been derived from the same book and therefore, was not too trustworthy.

There were remarks in the book which had suggested that Genuine Dragon, Crimson Rosefinch, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise were the only four super legendary beast races to thrive in this world. There were others too, who belonged to the super legendary beast class; unique, powerful, but unable to thrive or reproduce to increase their numbers. For example, the Sky-Devouring Beast, the Nine Colored Phoenix etc.

It also spoke of creatures less powerful than the super legendary beast, though still quite incredible. These included the Roc, an unfathomably gigantic bird which could transform into a fish, the Blue Phoenix, the Nine-Colored Deer, and so on.

The book was full of legends about those beasts and had even gone so far as to describe a war between the Genuine Dragon and the Crimson Rosefinch, which had changed mountains and rivers, made stars fall down, and, in one strange moment, even turned the heavens and the earth upside down.
