An alternative for this mission is Innkeeper's Request since it has the same enemy lineup and objective.

A Show of Strength
A Show of Strength requires you to defeat a Lynel and a Hinox within the time limit. No other enemies will appear on the battlefield, making it a viable option if you only want to farm for Lynel and Hinox materials.
A similar challenge called Stronger Yet requires you to defeat two Hinox and a Blue-Maned Lynel in under six minutes.

How to Beat Lynels
Follow the Rune Prompt
Some of the Lynel's attacks can be interrupted with runes. Keep an eye out for prompts and use the indicated rune to stagger the Lynel before dishing out damage.
This will quickly deplete its weak-point gauge so repeat the process until you can perform a Weak-Point Smash and deal massive damage.
How to Perform a Weak-Point Smash
Get Away When It Roars
Stay away from the Lynel when it roars, as it will be followed by a fire blast. Take note that the roar will also indicate how wide the blast radius is so you'll know how far you should be from the Lynel during the attack.
Use Special Attacks
The key to taking down lynels is to whittle down their weak point meter as quickly as possible. While runes are a sure way to do this, so is using Special Abilities, which will always stun them, allowing you to chip down on their weak point meter. This is especially useful if their weak point meter is almost depleted.
How to Perform a Weak-Point Smash
Use Rods
Like Special Attacks, Rods are a great way to stun lynels, leaving them open for an attack on their weak point meter. Furthermore, depending on where the lynel is standing, one blast from a rod can allow you to destroy their entire meter.
If a lynel is standing on grass, you should use a fire rod, and if they are in water, use either an ice rod or lightning rod. You can also use a lightning rod if they are near a metal crate, which will allow you to do tons of damage.
