As the tiger charged at Shang again, more metal appeared around his head.

But this time, the tiger couldn't fully envelop his head in metal.

When Shang saw that, his eyes shone.

The tiger's metal wasn't doing much for Sword at this point. After all, Sword was forged with Late General Stage metals. Even though this tiger was powerful, it was only at the Early General Stage.

But Shang had never aimed to strengthen his sword.

He had absorbed the metal with it to exhaust the tiger's Mana, and now, it was showing its effect.

The tiger tried to hit Shang again, but this time, it couldn't muster the Mana to elongate its claws.

Shang struck the tiger's forearm with his sword.

BANG!

The metal around the tiger's forearm cracked, but without any of Shang's Affinities as help, his sword didn't manage to injure the tiger.

But that was already enough.

The metal on the tiger's forearm transformed into a liquid and entered Shang's sword.

Of course, Shang was still thrown into the distance by the attack. Some of his bones cracked, but that was something he could deal with.

Shang let the attack carry him into the distance and landed around twenty meters away from the tiger.

Of course, the tiger immediately followed up with another attack with its other leg, which was still enveloped by metal.

BANG!

Shang was thrown away again, and the tiger's metal vanished from its other forearm.

At the same time, the metal all over its body began to reduce in size. This kind of metal armor wasn't permanent, and it needed continuous injection of Metal Mana to retain its hard form.

Shang dodged the next two attacks, and soon enough, all the metal on the tiger had vanished.

The reason why the tiger had been classified as a powerful beast was that it was very good in all three categories.

Offense, defense, speed.

Now, it was only great at offense and speed.

Without its metal, its defense was average, at best.

By now, Shang's passive regeneration had fully recovered his entire body.
