《Pet Beasts of the World: Hundred-Fold Multiplier System》 Chapter 1 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Chuxin City, The First Senior High School, Grade 3, Class D. Fang Yuan woke up from the back seat by the window. The pets¡¯ habits and breeding methods were explained on the blackboard, and the first volume of the basic knowledge of pets in the new curriculum was written in the textbook Outside the window, besides the heavy traffic, there were also people passing by, riding on land birds and gryphons. This was¡­ a world of pet beasts. ¡°This afternoon is the day to contract pet eggs. I can¡¯t wait any longer.¡± ¡°I wonder what kind of pet beast I can contract?¡± ¡°I want a frost blade leopard. God bless , god bless, It doesn¡¯t have to be too good. A silver high-grade one will do.¡± ¡°A silver high-grade? You wish.¡± The school had been built for more than a hundred years, and the hatchery had never produced a few silver pet eggs. ¡°Most people¡¯s first pet beast was trained from black iron.¡± ¡°Yeah. The real top-grade pet beasts all have the bloodline of their families. That¡¯s the treatment that only the top people in Class A can enjoy. Our students in Class D can just dream about it.¡± The students in the class were discussing animatedly. Many of their eyes were filled with uncontrollable fanaticism and excitement. Ring, ring, ring. The bell for the end of class rang. The students scrambled to get up and crowded towards the door. Fang Yuan, who was carried by the stream of people, grabbed the black notebook in his hand. He followed the direction of the crowd towards the school incubator. Fang Yuan was an ordinary high school student. When he woke up, he had transmigrated to this parallel world. The spiritual energy in this world had recovered, and countless black obelisks had appeared all over the world for no reason. The obelisks were the gateway to the alternate dimension arcane realm. All kinds of magical creatures resided in there. Although it was inevitable that there would occasionally be vicious incidents where wild beasts that lost control would surge out and attack humans. But in general, human and these creatures were getting along peacefully and friendly, according to the obelisk¡¯s left behind mysterious inscription. Scientists and archaeologists had even worked out a link with the obelisk creature, the way to conclude a contract. They even named the successfully contracted magical creatures Pet. Thus, the global pet era began. The corresponding human administrative, judicial, and educational systems had all changed because of the changes in the world. Apart from basic knowledge such as Chinese and mathematics, there was also nine years of compulsory education to learn all kinds of knowledge about pets. And when they reached the age of 16, all the teenagers and girls of the right age had to contract their first pet under the guidance of the school. That was the so-called contract ceremony. For anything, the first time was often an important experience, and so was the contract pet. The strength of the first pet greatly determined the long-term development of a pet trainer. According to their growth potential, pets were divided into several different qualities: From bottom to top: black iron, bronze, silver, gold, platinum. Each level was divided into three grades: low, middle, and upper. This was the most common grade classification. Above that were diamonds, star glory, and king. However, those were all unattainable urban legends. Under this classification system, silver was the biggest watershed. Countless pet trainers had made it their life¡¯s glory to contract a silver-quality pet. ¡­ As memories emerged, Fang Yuan followed the crowd and soon arrived at the incubator. The incubator of the school was a man-made greenhouse. It was a good restoration of the ecosystem in the obelisk realm. Countless pet eggs of different colors were lying quietly in the glass cover. This was a life-support system invented by pet scientists. It could control the temperature and humidity well. It kept the pet egg healthy. Right now, countless students¡¯ eager and expectant eyes were gathered on the glass cover. With the order of the class teacher, Gui Wentong, the contract ceremony officially began. ¡°First place, Chen Pingping.¡± The girl whose name was called walked to the stage and chose a pet egg. She pierced her thumb with a silver needle and dripped blood on it. The light shone brightly. The furry chick used its tough beak to peck at the eggshell. ¡°Furry chicken, medium-grade black iron.¡± Black iron-grade pets usually only had one passive skill, which was considered a relatively low-grade pet. Bronze-grade pets could have two skills. Silver-grade pets had four skills. Higher-grade pets might have more skills, or they might be stronger. They might also have mysterious attributes, which were unknown to the public. This was also the reason why everyone pursued high-quality pet beasts. The level of a pet beast could be further improved through continuous training. However, quality was something that had been written in the genes long ago. It could not be easily changed. The contract ceremony progressed very quickly. All the students in the school contracted their pet eggs one after another. ¡°Lucky Rabbit, high-grade black iron.¡± ¡°Fragrant Pig, low-grade black iron.¡± ¡­ Most of the pet beasts reported by the class teacher were of black iron quality. Probability would not lie. The higher the quality of a pet beast, the lower the probability of it appearing. This was an eternal truth. ¡°D*mn, all of them are black iron?¡± ¡°Black iron is not bad. Last year, my brother¡¯s class even had a few dead eggs! The glass cover was added after that due to this matter.¡± ¡°Then this contract is so lonely. My mentality has collapsed.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± ¡°God bless me, I¡¯m not greedy and don¡¯t want silver. Just give me a bronze. Even if it¡¯s a low-grade bronze, it¡¯s still good! Please.¡± ¡°Boxing Cat, medium-grade bronze!¡± Along with the class teacher¡¯s exciting shout-out, a boy raised Boxing Cat high up in his hands. ¡°It¡¯s Wang Jingze! He¡¯s struck it rich!¡± ¡°Wow, he¡¯s so lucky. which hand did he open? Did he open or close his eyes? Did he make any special movements?¡± ¡°Quick, quick, go over and take some luck.¡± But after this shout, they were all black steel. The line in front was getting shorter and shorter. Soon, it would be Fang Yuan¡¯s turn to go on stage. Even though he was a reincarnated person, coming to such a magical world, he was also full of anticipation for his first contracted pet. He subconsciously touched the bracelet on his wrist. This was left behind by his father. Fang Yuan¡¯s father was a pet beast archaeologist. Because of a top-secret archaeological project, he was away from home all year round. This bracelet was a birthday gift from his father. His predecessor always wore it by his side. When Fang Yuan walked onto the stage, he reached out his hand with the bracelet and touched the pet egg. A thin black-gray fog shrouded his eyes. ¡°Just like everyone else, it¡¯s also¡­ black iron?¡± At this moment, there was a Ding in his mind. [100-fold amplification system activated successfully. ] [ Ding. Pet egg detected: Level 1 gray-striped wolf, high-grade black iron. ] [ Do you wish to proceed with the 100-fold amplification? ] [ Host can choose from the following amplification methods. ] [ First, give up the 100-fold amplification and obtain high-grade black iron, level 1 gray-striped wolf. ] [ Second, obtain high-grade black iron, level 3 gray-striped wolf. ] [ Third, 100 times increase quality. Obtain middle-grade silver, level 1 shadow wolf. ] Chapter 2 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan, who had read countless web novels in his previous life, naturally knew this. The system was the standard configuration for all transmigrators. The 100-fold increase system allowed him to choose between increasing the quality of his pet and increasing the level of his pet. Of course, the choice was to increase the quality of his pet. The level of his pet could be improved by training and fighting. However, its grade was innate. Although some aristocratic families had also developed methods to improve its grade, those methods required a large amount of precious resources. It was simply something that the current Fang Yuan could not hope to achieve. [ Option 3, increase grade by a hundredfold. Obtain silver mid-grade, level 1 shadow wolf! ] A crack appeared on the eggshell. A bright silver light bloomed from the eggshell, illuminating the entire incubation room. Everyone seemed to be bathed in starlight. Then, a little black wolf with bright eyes broke through the egg shell and walked out. It howled softly. All the new pet beasts present unconsciously looked in the direction of the Shadow Wolf. Some timid pet beasts even hid in their master¡¯s arms and shivered. ¡°Oh my God! It¡¯s actually silver-quality!¡± ¡°How many years of character has he accumulated?¡± ¡°Sigh, Class D¡¯s first silver-quality in three years has been picked up by Fang Yuan just like that.¡± Wang Jingze: ¡°The bronze-quality Boxing Cat in my hand has instantly lost its fragrance!¡± The difference between bronze-quality and silver-quality was not just a little bit. All the students present cast envious looks. They were also jealous that the person who had obtained silver-quality was not them. Especially the two students who were ranked in front and behind Fang Yuan. They stomped their feet repeatedly and sighed. They felt as if they had just missed out on winning the lottery. The crowd below the stage surged and discussed animatedly. ¡°Are you willing to sign a contract with me and become my pet beast?¡± According to the rules, Fang Yuan said this contract oath. The Shadow Wolf used its clear eyes to look at Fang Yuan. It howled again. It agreed. The contract was signed and took effect immediately. The Shadow Wolf turned into a beam of light and entered the contract gem under the eggshell. He took the gem. The following details appeared in his consciousness. [ Scientific name: Shadow Wolf. ] [ Bloodline: Fenrir. ] [ Rarity: Silver middle-grade. ] [ Level: Beginner Level 1. ] [ Attributes: Beast, evil. ] [ Positioning: Ambush, burst ] [ Skills: 1. Sharp claws, 2. Growl, 3. Bite, 4. Aura concealment ] [ Sharp claws: Extremely penetrating wolf claws. Can reduce the enemy¡¯s defense when attacking. Can be leveled up ] [ Growl: Use wolf howl to repel low-level opponents. Can be leveled up ] [ Bite: Show your fangs and find your windpipe. There is a certain probability of achieving a one-hit kill. Can be leveled up ] [ Aura concealment: The shadow will always be the wolf¡¯s companion. Tread lightly and approach the enemy stealthily. While increasing movement speed, may also miss the opponent¡¯s attack. Can be leveled up. ] [ Personality: Cold. ] [ Preference: Sweets. ] As expected, silver-quality pet beasts had rich skills and strong growth rate. Fang Yuan was quite satisfied with his first pet beast. When he walked down from the stage, the girls behind him all rushed over. They touched his chest a few times, saying that they wanted to take advantage of his good fortune. Of course, good fortune was not so easy to pass on. The pet beasts that followed were all black iron-quality. Soon, all the students¡¯ contracts were completed. Gui Wentong, the class teacher, nodded in satisfaction. He had lived for forty years, but he only had one silver-quality pet beast. It seemed that the young man¡¯s luck was pretty good. He was naturally very pleased that his students were able to develop. ¡°Alright. Students who have completed the contract, please calm down. The school will be closed for half a day this afternoon. All of you should go back and establish a relationship with the pet first. In the future, you will have to use all the theoretical knowledge that the school has taught you in practice. Don¡¯t return the knowledge to the teacher when it comes to practice. Did you hear that?¡± All the students, ¡°Yes.¡± Gui Wentong, ¡°Fang Yuan, come with me later.¡± Fang Yuan followed the class teacher to the office. Gui Wentong patted his shoulder. ¡°For this batch of new students, the school has arranged for twenty opportunities to explore the elementary mystic realm. I have managed to get one for our class. You should go back and prepare.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. Although Teacher Gui was usually quite strict with the class, privately he was very concerned about everyone. ¡°Thank you, Teacher Gui.¡± After that, he set off on his way home. In his previous life, Fang Yuan was an orphan. He grew up in an orphanage. After transmigrating, he had a happy and harmonious family. This was what he yearned for very much. ¡°Xiao Yuan, you¡¯re back. Wash your hands first. I made you a muffin that you like to eat. It¡¯s made with the honey of the first-aid bees. It smells delicious.¡± His mother was waiting at the door in an apron. The golden bee hovering next to her was her pet. It was a medium-grade black iron first-aid bee. It was also because of this pet. Fang Yuan¡¯s mother was able to work as a nurse in the pet veterinary hospital. She was usually quite busy with work, and noon was usually the peak time for patients to see the doctor. She did not have time to cook. But today was the day Fang Yuan signed the contract. So his mother went home early. No matter what kind of pet his son signed the contract with, or what level it was, it was necessary to celebrate it properly. ¡°Thank you, Mom.¡± Fang Yuan smiled and was about to take a muffin to eat. The contract gem inlaid on the bracelet flickered, and the silver-black furred shadow wolf leaped out from the gem. Although it was just a small one, its aura was already quite extraordinary. The Shadow Wolf had been alone for a long time. People called it lone wolf, so it was not like other pet beasts that would coddle their master when they were just born. It always had its head held high, with an aloof attitude. But now that it saw the muffin on the table, it seemed to be unable to walk. ¡°It seems that Xiao Ying likes to eat it.¡± Xiao Ying was Fang Yuan¡¯s nickname for the Shadow Wolf. ¡°This is¡­ ?¡± Her mother turned around and saw the shadow wolf jumping onto the dining table with the muffin in its mouth. Then, her eyes widened in surprise, ¡°Shadow wolf? And it¡¯s silver-quality?!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. The class teacher also said that I will go to the elementary mystic realm for special training tomorrow.¡± There was naturally no need to hide these things from his family. His mother smiled until the corners of her eyes wrinkled. ¡°That¡¯s great! That¡¯s great! Don¡¯t eat it. Send this muffin to your teacher tomorrow.¡± Fang Yuan: ¡°???¡± Xiao Ying: ¡°???¡± His mother continued, ¡°What are you still eating at home? Let¡¯s go to the restaurant and have a big meal!¡± Chapter 3 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan was from an ordinary family. If it was not a joyous occasion, they rarely dined at a restaurant. He and his mother finished a sirloin steak. When they returned home, they were ready to sleep. As usual, his mother poured him a cup of first-aid bee¡¯s water by the bedside. This honey water had the effect of disinfection, sterilization, and recuperation of the body. Fang Yuan drank half of it and gave the other half to the shadow wolf that loved sweet food. Then, he fell into a deep sleep. The next day, he would enter the elementary level arcane realm for special training. He had to rest up. The next day at dawn. Fang Yuan was woken up by his mother. It was much earlier than usual. ¡°Mom, are you going to work so early today?¡± He rubbed his eyes in a daze, wondering if it was because of the recent promotion to head nurse in the hospital that made his mother¡¯s work harder? When he opened his eyes, Fang Yuan realized that his mother¡¯s face was full of fatigue. ¡°Xiao Yuan, the arcane realm is dangerous. If you encounter a problem that you can¡¯t handle, safety first. Don¡¯t try to be brave, understand? Bring this first-aid bee with you. It¡¯s an excellent support-type pet, and it will help you in the arcane realm.¡± His mother held out a pale golden contract gem. In the middle of the gem was a drawing of a bee. This was the first-aid bee¡¯s contract gem. Fang Yuan said in surprise, ¡°Isn¡¯t the first-aid bee your natal contract pet?¡± According to his original body¡¯s memories, he knew. In the contract between humans and pet beasts, there were two types of contracts: companion contracts and natal contracts. Between them, the natal contract was the most special. The pet beast and the host who signed such a contract could be said to share the same fate. If the host died, the pet beast could not live alone. If the pet beast died, the host would forever lose the ability to contract the pet beast. In a world of pet beasts, this was a crueler blow than losing one¡¯s life. In the case of Fang Yuan¡¯s mother who took the initiative to strip her own pet, although there was no immediate risk of death, it would also cause great harm to the body. However, in order to strengthen her son¡¯s strength, she still made this choice. Fang Yuan looked at the contract gem. The first-aid bee was his mother¡¯s only pet. His mother had given everything she had to him. Now that the natal contract had been stripped away, this action was irreversible. In other words, even if he refused to accept it, the harm his mother had to suffer would not be alleviated by his rejection. Fang Yuan nodded. He decided to accept the first-aid bee first. At the same time, he secretly made up his mind. He had to tame a better pet in the arcane realm and bring it back to his mother as her new natal contract pet. [ Ding. Contract gem detected: Level 3 first-aid bee, medium-grade black iron.] [ Do you wish to increase your strength by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase your strength. ] [ First, give up on increasing your strength by 100 times, obtain medium-grade black iron, level 3 first-aid bee. ] [ Second, increase your strength by 100 times, obtain medium-grade black iron, level 4 first-aid bee. ] [ Third, increase your strength by 100 times, obtain low-grade silver, level 3 healing queen bee. ] This time, he naturally chose the third item without hesitation. From bee to Queen Bee, just hearing the name gave him a feeling that the effect was extraordinary. Fang Yuan took the contract gem. He watched as his mother left for work. [ Scientific Name: Healing Queen Bee. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Rarity: Low-tier silver ] [ Level: Low-tier tier 3] [Attributes: Insect, grass, light ] [ Positioning: Healing, support ] [ Skills: 1. Honey Brewing; 2. Disruption; 3. Stinger; 4. Bee Taming. ] [ Honey Brewing: Brew sweet and delicious royal jelly to increase physical strength and defense. The daily production is fixed at one cup. ] [ Disruption: Gather light to disrupt the opponent¡¯s vision, reduce critical damage, and dodge the opponent¡¯s attack to a certain extent. ] [ Stinger: Use the sharp thorn at the tail to attack the opponent. After using this skill, you need to rest longer. ] [ Bee Taming: As the queen of the swarm, the healing queen has a certain degree of deterrence against other bee-type pets. ] [ Personality: Gentle. ] [ Interest: Flowers. ] After he was ready, he took the compressed dry food from home, carried the horn water bag on his back, and headed to the entrance of the Obelisk of the arcane realm at the back of the mountain of the school. According to the degree of difficulty, the arcane realm was divided into three levels: elementary, middle, and high. Elementary level was suitable for trainers to carry level one to level three pets for trials The time speed in the arcane realm was 1/3 of that in the outside world. Intermediate level was suitable for trainers to carry level 4 to level 6 pets for trials. The time speed in the arcane realm was 1/30 of that in the outside world. High level was suitable for trainers to carry level 7 to level 9 pets for trials. The time speed in the arcane realm was 1/300 of that in the outside world. Higher-level arcane realms were not accessible to trainers of their levels. And depending on the environment inside, arcane realm could also be divided into more than ten attributes, such as grass, water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, thunder, sun, moon, and so on. Like the obelisk at the back of the mountain of the school, it was shimmering with a light green light. It was obviously of grass attribute, elementary level arcane realm. Every arcane realm in the world had its own guardian who was responsible for deciphering the contents of the obelisk, developing the accompanying resources beside the obelisk, and managing and registering the entry and exit personnel of the realm. The guardian of the arcane realm in the back mountain was the school¡¯s vice principal, Yao Yong. Yao Yong was usually a serious person. He was the kind of discipline manager who would enforce the law strictly and punish those who broke the law. Even the most mischievous student would be terrified if the vice principal Yao¡¯s name was mentioned in front of him. ¡°Fang Yuan, a third-grade student from Class D?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Knowing Yao Yong¡¯s personality, Fang Yuan did not explain much. He only gave his student number to confirm his identity. ¡°Two silver-quality pet beasts?¡± Yao Yong raised his eyebrows and was slightly surprised. Then, he changed the topic. ¡°But you still have to act carefully. Take your materials and protect your life. Come out in a day.¡± The materials he was talking about referred to the basic items that every trial-taker who went to the arcane realm would be given. One of them was a time hourglass. The sand in the hourglass represented the amount of time one could stay in the arcane realm. If one wanted to leave the realm ahead of time, one only needed to smash the hourglass. But most trial-takers naturally hoped to stay in the arcane realm for as long as possible. The realm was a rare opportunity. The longer one cultivated, the more opportunities there were. This was because one would be teleported randomly when entering the realm. There were also unlucky people who were chased by ferocious monsters and escaped the moment they entered. The hourglass was prepared for such an emergency. In addition, there was a normal grade blank contract gem that could be used to capture pet beasts on its own. There was also a bottle of mini strength mix that could be used to replenish one¡¯s physical strength. Usually, students who could go to the arcane realm would have a good family environment, so they didn¡¯t specially pay much attention to these things. However, to Fang Yuan, one more resource was an additional resource. He took the bag, ¡°Thank you, teacher.¡± Chapter 4 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Ding. Normal level blank contract gem detected, one gem. ] [ Proceed to increase strength by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase strength. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, obtain normal level blank contract gem, one gem. ] [ Second, increase strength by 100 times, obtain fine level blank contract gem, one gem. ] [ Third, increase strength by 100 times, obtain normal-grade blank contract gem, 100 gems. ] ¡­ [ Ding. Miniature strength mix detected, one bottle. ] [ Proceed to increase your strength by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase strength. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, obtain a miniature strength mix, one bottle. ] [ Second, increase strength by 100 times, obtain a medium strength mix, one bottle. ] [ Third, increase strength by 100 times, obtain a small-sized stamina potion, 100 bottles. ] ¡­ [ Ding. Grass attribute elementary level arcane realm detected. Cultivation Time: one day. ] [ Proceed to increase your strength by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase strength. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, head towards the elementary arcane realm, cultivation time: one day. ] [ Second, 100 times increase in level, head towards the intermediate arcane realm, cultivation time: one day. ] [ Third, 100 times increase in cultivation time, head towards the elementary arcane realm, cultivation time: 100 days.] .. Choose the third for all! Now was not the time to rashly increase the intensity of resources. For the current Fang Yuan, the number of resources was the most important thing. Only by obtaining more basic resources, could he gain a better foothold in the arcane realm, obtain more benefits from the realm, and bring his family a better life. Especially when the time for cultivation could also be increased. This was something Fang Yuan had not thought of. For ordinary people, a day outside the tower was equivalent to three days inside the tower. And for Fang Yuan, who had increased his cultivation time by a hundred times, this was three hundred days. This was equivalent to almost a whole year of cultivation in the grass attribute elementary arcane realm. ¡°Hold on to the hourglass. If you lose it, no one can save you.¡± Yao Yong warned again and sent Fang Yuan into the arcane realm. The arcane realm was a random teleportation. When he woke up again, Fang Yuan was in a golden paddy field. Behind him, there was a hillside. There was a sign on the hillside, which read: Ten Mile Slope. Before Fang Yuan could figure out what ten mile slope meant, he saw in the distance the paddy field. A dark cloud was gathering. He looked at it again. It was not a dark cloud at all, but a flock of demonized sparrows! They were different from the sparrows they usually saw. The size of the demonized sparrows was at least ten times larger, but their movements were just as agile. They swept across the paddy fields. They formed a brown-gray tornado. Although the majority of wild magic beasts like these were mainly black iron-quality, and their levels were also around one or two, people could not withstand their numbers. Fang Yuan originally wanted to dodge this sudden attack, but he saw the leading demonized sparrow with a dark red light flashing in its eyes. He used his skill sharp eyes. He saw where Fang Yuan was hiding. He brought this group of demonized sparrows and attacked Fang Yuan¡¯s hiding place. Shadow Wolf appeared from the shadows. ¡°Xiao Ying [ Roar ] .¡± Although it was the first battle of a new pet beast, Shadow Wolf did not show any signs of stage fright. It gave the demonized sparrows a great deterrence the moment it appeared. The leading demonized sparrow was immediately shocked by the shadow wolf, and the flock of sparrows behind it scattered like birds and beasts. However, this flock of sparrows seemed to have extremely strong battle experience. Under the command of their leader¡¯s skill, they quickly regrouped. They attacked again. ¡°Use [ sharp claws ] !¡± Fang Yuan and Xiao Ying cooperated very closely. When the flying height of the demonized sparrow landed, the shadow wolf jumped up high to reach it. Before they could use [ beak strike ] , Shadow Wolf took the initiative and used its sharp claws to kill them on the ground. The demonized sparrow that was of lower quality and level died on the spot. If the demonized sparrows still wanted to struggle, Shadow Wolf would use another [ bite ] . It would directly bite the opponent¡¯s trachea. It would die right away. [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. One demonized sparrow killed. One bonus point gained ] [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. One demonized sparrow killed. One bonus point gained. ] Fang Yuan heard the system¡¯s voice in his mind. Although this emotionless system did not explain the bonus point. But he seemed to have guessed something. The Golden Finger¡¯s 100 times amplification ability was definitely not unlimited. Otherwise, wouldn¡¯t it be used repeatedly? There was bound to be a price to pay for using the ability, and something had to be consumed. This number was presumably the amplification points. Through killing, capturing, and defeating different opponents, one could obtain different amplification points. And then using a certain amount of amplification points in exchange for the effect of a 100 times amplification. This must be how the bracelet that his father left behind worked. [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. One demonized sparrow killed. One bonus point gained. ] [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. It has evolved to intermediate level one. ] [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. It has evolved to advanced level one. ] The battle between Shadow Wolf and the demonized sparrows continued. The ground was littered with the corpses of the demonized sparrows. These mutated demonized pet beasts were usually called demonized beasts and were difficult to subdue. At the same time, after demonizing, they would trigger their own aggressive nature. When they met their opponents, they would fight to the death. Therefore, although they were unable to defeat Shadow Wolf in single-target attacks, the the tactic used was a battle of attrition. After taking out about ten demonized sparrows, Xiao Ying¡¯s eyes clearly showed signs of fatigue. As far as the eye could see, the total number of demonized sparrows did not seem to have decreased at all. ¡°[ aura concealment ] .¡± Fang Yuan gave a new command, and Shadow Wolf quickly stepped into the shadows. The aggro value was suddenly eliminated. The aerial attacks of the demonized sparrows suddenly lost their target. They started to chirp in confusion. They quickly retreated into the dense forest behind them. Although the demonized sparrows saw the direction they had retreated to, they hesitated and did not dare to chase after them. Taking advantage of this gap, Fang Yuan immediately filled the bull horn cup with the mini vitality potion and fed it to Xiao Ying. Its spirit quickly recovered. The marks on its body that were occasionally injured by the sparrows¡¯ claws and sharp beaks also immediately improved. He waited until Shadow Wolf finished recovering. When he appeared from the shadows again, his attack power and attack speed had been greatly increased, and his killing efficiency had become even higher. [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. One demonized sparrow killed. One bonus point gained. ] [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. It has evolved to the peak of level one. ] [ The current accumulated bonus points are more than 100. The remaining 100 times bonus points will be increased, once. ] Chapter 5 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ever since then, Fang Yuan had been killing the demonized sparrow every day. He finally understood why this place was called ten mile slope. This was definitely the rhythm that would allow him to become the sword god of ten mile slope! The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day¡­ the 100th day. He could not kill all of them. There was no way he could kill all of them. Even with the combination of roaring, sharp claws, biting, and concealing his aura, Xiao Ying was getting more and more proficient. Its killing speed against a single demonized sparrow was also getting faster and faster. But you couldn¡¯t handle its large numbers. It seemed like it was going to gather all the demonized sparrows in the world here. Just as he was feeling hopeless, a white light flashed on the body of Shadow Wolf. It had leveled up. [ Ding. Host¡¯s pet shadow wolf detected. It has evolved to the primary level two. ] [ Pet skill, ¡®sharp claws¡¯, has been upgraded. ] [ Proceed to increase strength by 100 times? ] It came just in time. Pet beasts were divided into one to nine levels. Below each level, there were basic, intermediate, advanced, and peak levels. Every time a large level was upgraded, pet beasts and trainers would receive extraordinary rewards. Like this time, Xiao Ying¡¯s reward was the upgrade of his skill. [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase it. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, obtain the skill ¡®shadow strike¡¯. ] [ Second, increase the strength by 100 times, obtain the skill ¡®powerful shadow strike¡¯. ] [ Third, increase the range by 100 times, obtain the skill ¡®multiple shadow strike¡¯. ] Fang Yuan immediately chose the last one. According to the knowledge of his predecessor, he knew that the skill ¡®Shadow Strike¡¯, as the name implied, was to transform into a phantom and launch a surprise attack. It could deal 60% to 80% of the effect of a normal attack on a small area of effect enemy. It was a area of effect attack, not a skill that dealt critical damage. The amplification did not have much meaning, so the amplification range was the best use of the advantage. Previously, all the skills of Shadow Wolf were single-target attacks. Now that he had [ multiple shadow strike ] , it greatly increased the speed of clearing the area. Fang Yuan himself had also obtained a trainer skill called [ perception ] . After a hundred times amplification, it was strengthened into [ weakness insight ] . He could see the weakness of the pet beast. It was a very useful skill, but it was not useful yet. ¡°Xiao Ying! [ multiple shadow strikes ] !¡± Fang Yuan gave the order, and Shadow Wolf¡¯s figure quickly sped up. In just a few flashes, it had already arrived behind a few demonized sparrows. As its movement speed was too fast, the afterimages of thousands and thousands of wolves could be seen with the naked eye. As thousands and thousands of cold rays pierced out, all the demonized sparrows fell to the ground. The ground was covered with the flesh and blood of the bird carcasses. Looking around, there were actually hundreds of them. ¡°Looks like the experience points that we can farm in the beginner village have been cleared.¡± Looking closely, the demonized sparrows leader that had commanded the sparrows earlier was also killed by Shadow Wolf¡¯s shadow attack skill. ¡°What a waste. I have wanted to capture it to see its quality.¡± After all, this was the leader of the demonized sparrows. Its quality might be quite high. But now that it was taken away by Xiao Ying in one wave, it was too late. ¡°You b*stard.¡± Fang Yuan looked at Xiao Ying, the shadow wolf raised its head high, as if it was proud of its new skill. Indeed. Shadow Wolf¡¯s positioning was actually a surprise assassin. It was used to kill the enemy in one hit. But if he wanted to use the contract gem to capture a new pet, it had to at least leave one alive. After a hundred days of special training, Fang Yuan realized that the most important thing now was to get a pet with a strong control skill as soon as possible, before leaving Ten Mile Slope. Fang Yuan did a simple cleaning of the battlefield. The meat of the demonized sparrow could be dried and pickled as the food next. He even found a tier one red magic core in the head of the leader sparrow. This kind of thing would occasionally appear on the demonized wild pet. It was better material used for making weapons, defensive equipment, accessories, and so on. It also had a 100-fold amplification notification. Fang Yuan chose the latter between 100 tier one mana cores and one tier two mana core. The main reason was that he couldn¡¯t carry so many spoils of war. There was no map in the arcane realm. So he could only explore according to his own judgment. In the adventure in the jungle, there was one thing that couldn¡¯t be wrong, which was to follow the direction of the river. Water was the source of life. The direction of the river led to the birthplace of life. And there was one more thing. The bull horn water bag on his body had long been empty, and he could not leave the water source for too long. Unlike many sons of noble families, Fang Yuan had very limited number of pets and functions. He could only take things one step at a time. Fang Yuan explored the depths of the jungle, and he walked very carefully. He remembered very clearly. When he was fighting with the demonized sparrows on the Ten Mile Slope, the leader at that time seemed to be very afraid of this forest. When he was chasing after Shadow Wolf, he was unwilling to come to this dense forest. Presumably, there must be something terrifying hidden in it. Even the demonized beasts would feel a great terror. He didn¡¯t go too far. They could clearly feel that the ground beneath their feet was becoming wetter and wetter. The mosquitoes, insects, and ants around their feet were also becoming more and more. Fang Yuan¡¯s footsteps slowed down. From Afar, he could see an indigo-purple swamp in front of him. It seemed to be filled with danger, and the swamp was crawling with countless terrifying creatures. The toad wanted to eat the gecko. The centipede wanted to eat the toad. The scorpion wanted to eat the centipede. The poisonous snake wanted to eat the scorpion. It was like a mantis catching the cicada, but the oriole was behind. In short, in this swamp ecosystem, all the poisonous insects and beasts were fighting each other for survival. The cruel natural war in the swamp lasted for a long time. It didn¡¯t happen overnight. It could be said that Fang Yuan¡¯s luck was really good. When he came, he just happened to watch the end of the war. A small purple-red spider, looking extremely thin, finally came out from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. It stood above millions of creatures. One could imagine that it was the leader of all poisons. However, this cruel war also exhausted its strength. It was exhausted and on the verge of death. It watched Fang Yuan walk over. He had a bottle of stamina mixture in his left hand and a piece of devil sparrow dried meat in his right hand. It seemed to see the hope of life. The purple-red spider¡¯s gaze fell on Fang Yuan. Shadow Wolf sensed the dangerous aura and silently stood in front of its master. Fang Yuan knew this spider. Because its name had appeared in the textbook before. Fang Yuan still remembered it clearly. The title of that chapter was ¡°The Creature You Must Avoid Immediately in the Arcane Realm¡±. Scientific name: Iris spider. Iris was the name of a flower. This flower was violet in color. It was the same color as the body of this spider. The name of the spider was quite pleasant, but its poison was quite terrible. A small drop of its venom on its web could poison a Spanish bull in its prime. It was definitely not a good thing to be targeted by such a thing. Chapter 6 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio From the battle in the swamp, Fang Yuan could deduce that the iris spider was the final winner in the battle of poisons. But what he did not know was after the iris spider experienced this harsh battle, it still had some strength left. What was the purpose of keeping an eye on him now? ¡°Leave that thing behind, you can leave now.¡± The iris spider suddenly spoke in human language. Pet beasts were most likely familiar with human nature. Among them, there were quite a number of high-quality and high-level pet beasts that understood human language. Even though they knew these basic knowledge, the moment the iris spider spoke, Fang Yuan was still surprised. The other party¡¯s demand was very clear. The thing it was talking about was referring to the grade two demonized sparrow crystal core in Fang Yuan¡¯s hands. Demonized beast¡¯s crystal core was a resource for humans, and it was the same for other pet beasts. Many demonized beasts fought in the mountains and plains in order to devour each other¡¯s demonnized core to increase their own strength. It could be confirmed that the quality of the iris spider was not lower than silver. In terms of level, it would not be lower than the two pet beasts by his side. Otherwise, Shadow Wolf and the healing queen bee would not guard his sides so vigilantly from the first moment. In other words, it was at least level three and above. Now that the other party was extorting the crystal core, Fang Yuan naturally refused to give. But if he did not give, he would have to take the risk. If the iris spider was in its weakened state, it might still have the strength to fight. If it still retained 70-80% of its strength, with Fang Yuan¡¯s current pet¡¯s combat strength, surely they would lose. Even if it was two against one, they would not be able to win. ¡°Although it¡¯s a bit presumptuous to ask this, and it seems like I haven¡¯t seen the world yet, but you are indeed the first pet that I¡¯ve seen that can talk.¡± Fang Yuan thought for a moment and suddenly used a casual tone to speak. Chatting was a very easy way to make both sides relax, there was no other way. While looking for a topic to talk about, Fang Yuan¡¯s meticulous analytical train of thought didn¡¯t stop at all. This spider could speak human language. It meant that it had been in contact with humans for a long time. The most likely scenario was that it was once a trainer¡¯s pet. However, one had to know that the arcane realm had a time limit. If the trainer left the arcane realm, the pet would leave as well. However, this iris spider still remained here. There was only one possibility. This iris spider, its original owner, had died in the arcane realm! In addition, there was a huge pit on the ground, and a swamp in the pit. Poisonous creatures were crawling all over the swamp. Fang Yuan quickly came to a conclusion. The owner of this iris spider was originally a trainer. Furthermore, a trainer that specialized in unorthodox methods, Poison Masters. Poison Masters mainly tamed pet beasts with poison and insect attributes. They had a taboo recipe that could rapidly increase the quality and level of pet beasts. It was ¡°Gu¡± refinement. As the name implied, it was to put all the captured pet beasts together. They were then forced to kill each other. Until the best of the best was selected, and the strong preyed on the weak to select the strongest pet beast. Then, by signing this strongest pet beast as his natal beast, his strength would grow rapidly. But ¡°Gu¡± refinement was very easy to backfire. Presumably, this was how the poison master sought his own destruction. Fang Yuan thought of this. He immediately came to a conclusion. This poison master had nurtured the iris spider as his vital beast, but it died suddenly during ¡°Gu¡± refinement. As everyone knew. The vital contract was related to the strength of the pet beast and the trainer. If one party died, the other party would lose a lot of strength. This meant that this iris spider was definitely just bluffing. He used the trainer skill, weakness detection. He could see the highlighted mark in the system. [ Pet¡¯s personality: Suspicious. ] Thus, a detailed plan had been formed in his mind. ¡°According to the textbook, a pet that can speak human language needs to be at least silver-quality and at least level three. It seems that your strength is stronger than all of my pet beasts.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s chattering did not stop, ¡°I believe in a truth. Whoever has the strongest fist is in charge. Since I can¡¯t win, it¡¯s only right for me to give this stone to you. However, you have to promise me that if I hand this over, you¡¯ll let me go back safely.¡± ¡°Long-winded,¡± the iris spider interrupted him, ¡°I naturally know what to do.¡± ¡°Alright, alright, I won¡¯t say anymore. I¡¯ll give you the magic core now.¡± Fang Yuan smiled and took the initiative. He was about to take big steps forward. ¡°Wait.¡± The iris spider stopped him. A human being wanted to approach him even though he knew he was not strong enough. He must be up to no good. ¡°Just leave it where you are and don¡¯t move. I¡¯ll come and get it.¡± The iris spider said coldly. ¡°That would be great.¡± Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows, ¡°You can come and get it.¡± The iris spider looked at his strange smile, then looked at the dark shadow wolf and the healing queen bee beside him. Even though both of their levels were lower than hers, their qualities were definitely not weak. In addition, she had gone through ¡°Gu¡± refinement and the removal of her intrinsic contract. If she went over, and if the other party made a move, she really did not know who would win. ¡°Wait.¡± The iris spider suddenly stopped again. ¡°You don¡¯t want me to send it over, and you don¡¯t want to come over and take it yourself. This makes it very difficult for people to do things.¡± Fang Yuan deliberately frowned and showed a helpless expression. He scratched his head and pondered for a moment before saying: ¡°How about this, if I don¡¯t go over, you don¡¯t have to come over either. I¡¯ll get my pet beast to send it over to you. That¡¯s fine, right? Just you go, Xiao Ying.¡± Fang Yuan pointed at Shadow Wolf. ¡°No, I want the other one to send it over. Yes, that healing queen bee.¡± The iris spider was suspicious. If Fang Yuan took the initiative to do something, he would definitely not let him do it. Moreover, the shadow wolf was a battle-type pet beast, but the healing queen bee was obviously a support-type pet. From the perspective of the threat of battle power. The healing queen bee was even less of a threat. ¡°Sigh. Alright, alright, I¡¯ll listen to you.¡± Fang Yuan shook his head and sighed, looking as if his plan had failed. However, he was starting to feel ecstatic. It worked. He activated the pet contract and used his soul to send orders to the healing queen bee. The healing queen bee indeed did not have much battle strength. However, it had a very useful skill at this time, disruption. It could change the light to disrupt the opponent¡¯s vision. This was exactly what he wanted to do, because what Fang Yuan wanted the queen bee to send over was not a grade two demonized sparrow core. Instead, a hundred times enhanced contract gem! Chapter 7 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio 100 enhancement points were consumed. After a 100 times enhancement, the ordinary grade contract gem had already become an excellent grade contract gem. The contract power of this gem far exceeded the ordinary standard. Just like in a certain elven animation, the difference between an ordinary ball and a master ball. This type of contract gem had a very similar appearance to a grade two demonized core. With the addition of the healing bee queen¡¯s disruption skill, under the sun, the spider¡¯s compound eyes were even harder to differentiate. When the healing queen bee flew over with the contract gem, the suspicious iris spider seemed to have noticed something unusual. It was about to say something, but it was too late. Under Fang Yuan¡¯s command, the bee queen threw the contract gem down from the sky. It landed squarely on the iris spider¡¯s head. At the same time, Fang Yuan immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, and the shadow wolf guarded him while he carried out the contract. A fine grade contract gem had its own mandatory nature. There was even a certain chance of capturing a pet that was currently under the demonizing state. If the iris spider was in its prime¡­ Perhaps there was really nothing could be done. It had a way to resist it. However, after experiencing the double blow and being in a weakened state, it could be easily dealt with. [ Do you wish to forcefully contract the iris spider? ] [ Yes! ] The pattern of the spider on the gem was quickly drawn. This meant that the iris spider had become Fang Yuan¡¯s pet. [ Ding. Pet detected: Silver high-tier, level 3 iris spider. ] [ Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement? ] [ Host can choose from the following enhancement methods. ] [ First, give up the 100-fold enhancement, obtain a silver high-tier, level 3 iris spider. ] [ Second, 100-fold level enhancement, obtain a silver low-tier, level 4 iris spider. ] [ Third, 100-fold level enhancement, obtain a gold low-tier, level 3 iris spider emperor. ] Old rules. Chose the third. This was the first time Fang Yuan had seen a gold-tier pet in his life. Obviously, the former owner of the iris spider, the poison master, wanted to use the ¡°Gu¡± refinement method to raise the level of the pet. In the end, it went berserk and not only did it fail, he even lost his life. It was truly a pity. ¡°Fang Yuan, you don¡¯t care about martial virtue, you actually took the opportunity when my life contract was interrupted to deceive me, to ambush me!¡± Even though it had already turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the contract gem, Fang Yuan could still hear the shouts in his soul. ¡°Don¡¯t say that either.¡± Fang Yuan put the contract gem in his bag. ¡°You, who wanted to take this demonized core back then, you didn¡¯t plan to let me pass by smoothly, right?¡± Indeed. If the iris spider could absorb the energy in the demonized core, it could quickly recover more than 50% of its strength. At that time, Fang Yuan and his two pet beasts would be unable to save their lives. ¡°Look, doesn¡¯t this mean that we¡¯re actually on the same path?¡± ¡°Besides, you said that you wanted the stone in my hand, but you didn¡¯t say which one.¡± ¡°What you wanted was the magical beast essence crystal, but I¡¯m sorry, what I want is the contract gem.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a misunderstanding. It¡¯s all a misunderstanding. Maybe we¡¯ll just be wrong. It¡¯s a beautiful fate.¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, you can take a look at your condition. Is it better than before?¡± [ Scientific name: Iris Spider King. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Rarity: Low-tier gold. ] [ Level: Low-tier level 3. ] [ Attributes: Insect, poison, evil. ] [ Positioning: Control. ] [ Skills: 1. Poison Fang; 2. Paralysis; 3. Spider Web; 4. Agility. ] [ Personality: Suspicious. ] [ Interest: Shadow. ] ¡­ The iris was indeed quite shocked. After experiencing so many sudden changes, its own strength had been greatly reduced. The owner who signed the life contract exploded and died. As a pet beast, whether it could live on its own was already a problem. Otherwise, it would not be in such a hurry to ask Fang Yuan for resources. But half of it was tricked, and the other half forced it to sign a companion contract with Fang Yuan. Its quality actually rose to a whole new level. From silver tier to gold tier! One had to know that this was a level that the previous owner had not reached even after refining countless ¡°Gu¡± pools. This was too shocking! Moreover, even though Iris was extremely dissatisfied that Fang Yuan had deceived her, but thinking back, she had to admit that during the short exchange just now, Fang Yuan had displayed an extremely shocking mental quality. Facing a powerful enemy whose background was unknown. Not only did he not panic, but he also played a steady game of chess. He used his paranoia. He deliberately did the opposite to achieve his ultimate goal. From how to deliver the stone to the final choice of the bee emperor, every decision made by both parties was in his plan. He had a superb insight into the psychology of others. Fang Yuan, this young trainer, was really, very, very scary. Ever since the iris spider king had gained sentience, it had felt that humans were only so-so. Even its previous owner, it did not put him in its eyes. Now, it had truly met a master that made it feel fear and even admiration. ¡°So¡­ Now, are you willing to sign a contract and become my pet?¡± There was no such ritual declaration for a pet to sign a contract. But for some reason, Fang Yuan still asked. ¡°I, I am willing!¡± The iris spider king answered firmly. Fang Yuan laughed. He was now certain that even though it had experienced a small episode, Iris would follow him wholeheartedly from now on. ¡­ This time, he was very lucky to have missed out on the contract with Iris. Because from his skills, he was simply the best control-type pet beast. [ Poisonous fang: Causes the opponent to fall into a poisoned state. 60% chance of stamina continuously decreasing. ] [ Paralysis: Causes the opponent to fall into a paralyzed state. 60% chance of being unable to move for a certain period of time. ] [ Spider web: Entangles the opponent and rapidly closes the distance between the opponent and oneself. ] [ Agility, increase the speed of oneself and the trainer by 50%. ] Considering that most pet beasts needed to lose their fighting ability first before they could use the contract gem to form a contract, these skills could be used to train in the arcane realm and to capture new pet beasts. It was simply the best. Fang Yuan decided to give it a try. More than half of the time had passed in the arcane realm. With the iris spider king, he should start looking for a new natal contract beast for his mother. Chapter 8 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan continued to move forward and soon walked out of the dense forest. The water source of the river stopped there. He set up a simple tent at the end of the tributary and planned to continue exploring ahead. If he did not find the next water source, he would return in time. Outside the forest, there was a garden. The garden was home to a large number of wild pet beasts with grass attributes. Rodent Rats, rattlesnakes, thick-feathered moths, and other rare pet beasts came and went in groups here. No wonder everyone had chosen to come to the arcane realm to cultivate. But among these pet beasts, Fang Yuan made some simple choices. He wanted to prepare for his mother a natal pet beast. It was not something that could be casually captured and brought back. His mother was a veterinary doctor in the pet hospital. So it was best for the pet to be a support-type pet, which could provide considerable help in her work. But at the same time, it could not be completely without combat power. Otherwise, he would not be able to rest assured when he was out. After a period of screening, he selected the type of pet he wanted to capture. Light butterfly. This type of pet had three aspects: attack, defense, and support. It could be said that it was a type of pet with a very balanced ability. Attack skill, wind, could form a miniature tornado of wind, blowing the enemy away. Defense skill, iron wings, using the wings in front to form a light barrier, could completely defend against the normal attacks of low-level pets. Support skill, healing ray, the effect was similar to that of the queen bee. The ray could be refracted at least three times. It was equivalent to group therapy skill, which was very rare. There was also a support skill, flying. Trainers could ride on the back of the light butterfly and fly. This skill could also be used in battle. This was because the effect of air-to-ground strikes was very powerful. If one could catch a light butterfly that had all four skills at the same time, it would be the perfect pet. It could completely replace the previous first-aid bee. As the mother¡¯s new contracted natal beast, it could even be said that it would be even better. Fang Yuan continued to walk forward. In front of him was the light butterfly¡¯s main habitat, the sea of light flowers. The sea of flowers was in the middle of this grassland. It was filled with flying butterflies. ¡°Come out, Iris!¡± The iris spider king responded and appeared. First, it used [ swiftness ] to greatly increase its movement speed and attack speed. Next, it used [ spider silk ] to pull the light butterfly flying in the sky to the ground. Then, it used [ paralysis ] or [ fangs ] to make the opponent, light butterfly, enter a state of paralysis or poisoning, any kind of abnormal state. Finally, it was Fang Yuan¡¯s job. He had to take out the contract gem and contract with the light butterfly. However, there was also a problem. The light butterflies in the sea of flowers all looked the same, and their qualities were uneven. The vast majority of them were black iron. Needless to say, there were only two black iron skill slots, so he could directly release them. (The reason for releasing them was to gain more bonus points.) The bronze and silver pet that appeared occasionally might not have these four skills. The description of the pet skill, Fang Yuan had learned it in Class A long time ago. In theory, a pet of the same breed might be able to master many skills. However, when it came to each of these pet beasts, the skills that they actually mastered were random. That was to say, even if Fang Yuan caught a silver-quality light butterfly, the skills it mastered might not necessarily be the [ wind ] , [ iron wings ] , [ healing ray ] , and [ flight ] . It could also be the other four. For example, [ crash ] , [ dodge ] , [ daydream ] were useless skills. To find a perfect four-skill light butterfly, it would take a very, very long time. What was the most valuable thing in the arcane realm? Time! Therefore, no one would choose to pick and choose. It was more important to catch the pet first. However, Fang Yuan was different. He was not worried about time. On the contrary, he was more concerned about the perfect appearance of his mother¡¯s natal pet. That was his mother! Now, he still had about 150 days. He could completely invest in capturing the light butterfly. In any case, pet-catching was the same as pet-fighting. Both could bring experience and bonus points. There was nothing bad about it. Thus, Fang Yuan brought Iris and started the Ten Mile Slope sword god mode again, until he was only left with a single digit of 100 contract gems. Only then did he stop. There were dozens of light butterflies in his hands. They were colorful, had different patterns and skills. However, they all had the same characteristic. All of them were bronze-quality and above. That was because Fang Yuan had directly released the black-iron ones. They were not even worth occupying the space of a contract gem. Hard work paid off. In the end, Fang Yuan still managed to catch a low-silver light butterfly. It had four skills that he desired. He used a hundred times amplification to increase it to high-silver. He carefully marked the contract gem and placed it in his pocket, planning to give it to his mother when he returned home. When Fang Yuan packed his luggage and stepped into the sea of flowers again, he discovered that there were no longer any butterflies lingering around this beautiful place. He had basically caught it and made it extinct. In this place, the iris spider king that had used control skills countless times. Due to the repeated and deliberate practice, its level had even been upgraded to level 3 intermediate. The [ spider silk ] skill had also been upgraded to [ spider web ] , increasing its control time and range. It was even more awe-inspiring to Fang Yuan. It thought that this was a method and a planned training, a great game of chess. ¡°Iris, hurry! The soil in the center of the sea of flowers is moving. Use [ spider web ] !¡± Fang Yuan gave the order, and Iris immediately followed. A thin and elastic spider web quickly covered the soil. Looking closely, it was not soil, but a rare pet beast, commonly known as meat pocket. This was a pet beast that looked like a piece of meat. Its single eye was in the middle, and its mouth looked like it had been stitched by a needle. It was quite scary. However, it was actually quite docile. Even though it was only a black iron grade, Fang Yuan immediately signed a contract with it without hesitating to use the few remaining gems. In fact, its rarity did not lie in its strength, but its tool attributes. Chester had a skill called storage. It could store a large amount of food in its body and it would not rot after a long time. In short, it was a mobile refrigerator. It was quite convenient. Fang Yuan¡¯s this contracted pet also had a skill called navigation, which allowed it to find food and water within its range. It could be said that it was an essential pet beast for survival in the wild. ¡°Chester, help me navigate to the nearest water source.¡± Seeing that it was already late. Fang Yuan gave an order to the meat pocket, which was also the pet beast that he it named Chester. ¡°Chester is guiding master.¡± He let out a muffled voice. ¡°1.8 kilometers southeast, there is a forest of baobabs that can provide sufficient drinking water.¡± Chapter 9 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan, who came from an ordinary family, had a good habit of thrift. Now that he had Chester as a navigator, he went back to the other side of the dense forest and put all the dead demonized sparrows on the ten-mile slope into the meat bag. Then he went to the baobab forest. Baobab was a plant that lived in a tropical environment. It had thick trunk. The function of the tree trunk was similar to a sponge. In the rainy season, it could quickly absorb a large amount of water. When dry season came, it could be relied on to sustain life with the water that it had stored. Very magical. The baobab fruits on the baobab trees, after a simple toasting, it was just like bread emitting the fragrance of malt. It could be said that the it was full of treasures. These baobab trees grew on a hillside. The hillside looked a little strange. The ground was soft and fluffy, as if stepping on some kind of precious brocade. At the same time, the color of the surface was black and white. It was like the white zebra crossing on the black asphalt road in the city. But no matter what, these baobab trees were precious resources. Seeing these things, Fang Yuan was naturally not satisfied with just getting some water. He picked a fruit. He dug out the sweet flesh, then set up a fire and tried to roast a fruit, giving it to the pet beasts around him. Everyone was very energetic after eating. It seemed that the fruit of this baobab tree had the effect of boosting spiritual power. In that case, it was too wasteful to leave these trees here and only take away the fruits He wanted to take all of the baobab forest with him. Fang Yuan quickly made a shovel and began to dig. Transplanting plants needed to protect the soil at its roots, which could greatly increase the survival rate after transplanting. He led a few pet beasts and began to dig. For some reason, the soil became softer and softer until it reached the deepest part of the mountain. The entire mountain with baobab trees started to move. It couldn¡¯t be, Fang Yuan was puzzled. Could this be a landslide caused by soil erosion? But he had only dug up this little bit of soil to be taken away. Then, he heard a huge roar. This was a frustrated roar that came from someone who had been disturbed from his dreams during his deep sleep. Fang Yuan looked down at his feet. This wasn¡¯t a mountain. They were standing on the belly of a huge beast! This giant beast had a cute bear face, but its strength was absolutely terrifying. It sat up. Fang Yuan immediately increased the strength of one of the remaining contract gems in his hand by a hundredfold and threw it out. He wanted to see if he could take advantage of the fact that it was still in a daze after waking up from its dream. He wanted to subdue it when it was caught off guard. Unexpectedly, before the contract gem he threw out could land on the ground, it was caught by the big round, furry bear. Then it threw it into its mouth. Crack, crack, crack. It ate it! Then it turned its body dispiritedly and lay down to continue sleeping. From all the knowledge reserves of Fang Yuan¡¯s predecessor, he had never known that there was a pet beast that could ignore the contract gem¡¯s compulsory contract. This pet beast must be extraordinary. He really needed to understand the situation, but not now. When the giant bear opened its eyes to look at him, there was clearly a kind of level surpassing pressure. This was not a power that the current Fang Yuan could resist. What he needed to do now was to leave this place immediately while the giant bear was still asleep. He calculated the time, he spent more than 100 days to kill the demonized sparrows and train the shadow wolf. He spent another 100 days to capture the light butterflies and train the iris spider king. The 300 days of cultivation time in the mystical realm was almost up. Fang Yuan threw the hourglass on the ground and felt dizzy. He brought several transplanted baobabs, dozens of light butterflies, and nearly 100 corpses of the demonized sparrows. He returned to the world outside the arcane realm. ¡­ At this moment, outside the arcane realm, the Academic Affairs Department of the school was recording the results of all the students. This results would directly determine the results of the grade three classes in the future. ¡°Grade three Class A, Zhang Yu, 20 hours.¡± ¡°To be able to persist for such a long time in the first trial of the arcane realm, it¡¯s not easy. As expected of the Zhang family.¡± The Academic Affairs Department officer said as he was recording on the huge stone slab. ¡°Grade three Class A, Li Yi Zheng, 21 hours. ¡°Excellent. Your father, Mr. Li Tie, probably wouldn¡¯t be able to achieve this at your age.¡± ¡°Grade three Class A, Wang Zijun, 22 hours.¡± ¡°Our school¡¯s top seeded contestant, this year¡¯s proud son of heaven, deserves it, deserves it.¡± ¡°Grade three Class A, Chen Ying, 23 hours.¡± ¡°Hiss!¡± The officer sucked in a breath of cold air. He had not expected that the first place in the arcane realm this time would be a girl. However, thinking about it carefully, this was also reasonable. Chen Ying was the only daughter of the Chen family among the Zhang, Wang, Li, and Chen four great aristocratic families. She had received excellent grades in both academics and characters. She even surpassed boys of the same age. ¡°It seems that the first place for this round of arcane realm trial has been announced. It is grade three Class A, student Chen Ying¡­¡± Before the officer could finish his sentence. The obelisk flashed with a dark light, and Fang Yuan had already landed steadily on the ground. ¡°Twenty¡­ twenty-four hours! A full twenty-four hours, not a minute more, not a minute less!¡± The officer¡¯s jaw was about to drop. ¡°Student, student! May I know your student number?¡± Fang Yuan reported his student number. ¡°First place, student Fang Yuan, from¡­ from¡­ grade three Class D!¡± The whole place was silent. No one would have thought that a student from Class D would actually be able to last until the last moment in the arcane realm. Even many students from Class A, who had the advantage in both pets and resources, could not do it. Gui Wentong, the class teacher of Class D, stood far away from the crowd. He was so excited that his face turned red. He took the lead in clapping. The next person who clapped was the guardian of the arcane realm at the back of the mountain. It was the deputy principal, Yao Yong, who was always expressionless. Then, everyone on the field seemed to have woken up from a dream and started clapping. ¡°One golden pet, three silver pets, and dozens of bronze pets?¡± Yao Yong glanced at Fang Yuan who walked out of the arcane realm and said with a smile, ¡°Young man, I¡¯m beginning to be interested in you.¡± Chapter 10 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Yao Yong¡¯s sharp eyes were like sharp swords. Before Fang Yuan reported the results of this arcane realm trial to anyone, he he had been seen through by the other party. However, as the vice principal of the school and the arcane realm gatekeeper, Yao Yong did not continue to ask. After expressing his interest in him, he let him leave first. He went home to recuperate. When Fang Yuan left the field, he could hear people pointing and discussing animatedly behind him. ¡°So Strong! He was able to stay for so long on his first visit to the arcane realm, he must have broken the new student record.¡± ¡°He isn¡¯t just strong. He was transported out in 24-hour period. Not a minute more, not a minute less. He has far surpassed his peers.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I thought this year¡¯s rookie king would be selected from the Zhang, Wang, Li, and Chen families. I didn¡¯t expect a dark horse to emerge.¡± Most people were full of praise for him. However, there were inevitably some discordant voices. They thought that he was just lucky and had teleported to a safer place. There were also people who said that he had spent three days and three nights in the arcane realm. However, Fang Yuan did not care too much. The mouth was on other]s face and he could say whatever he wanted. If he got angry, he would lose. He did not have the time to take care of such things. After leaving the stage, Gui Wentong, the class teacher who had been waiting for a long time at the exit of the arcane realm, came up to him. ¡°You did well, Fang Yuan!¡± His wrinkled face was joyous red. ¡°I didn¡¯t fight for this opportunity for you in vain. Come, let¡¯s go back to school. The teacher bought a high-quality wine sherbet. Let¡¯s go to the office and have a few drinks.¡± Gui Wentong was well-known for his love for wine. His own student had won first place, so he naturally wanted to celebrate. While drinking, Teacher Gui continued to say to Fang yuan, ¡°Fang Yuan, I feel that with your potential, it¡¯s really a pity for you to stay in Class D. ¡°You know the school¡¯s rules as well. The upper few classes, A, B, and C can be allocated more resources and opportunities than Class D. I wrote a letter to the principal a few days ago. I hope that I can take this opportunity to send you to a better class.¡± ¡°Originally, I wanted to send you to Class B or C. At the very least, it would be better than our class. But today, your results has greatly exceeded my expectation.¡± Gui Wentong was still drinking. He downed another glass and said, ¡°I feel that even Class A is not a problem.¡± Actually, Fang Yuan felt that there wasn¡¯t much difference in the education standards among the different classes. The teachers¡¯ strengths were all the same. There was indeed a difference in the standards among the students. But the reason for this difference wasn¡¯t because of anything else, but their family background. In a place like Class A, it was basically students with extraordinary family strength. With such a background, it would be strange if they weren¡¯t strong. As for the resources and opportunities which Gui Wentong mentioned, with a good family background, these would come naturally to him. Therefore, if it were up to him, Fang Yuan was not in a hurry to change classes. According to the memories of his predecessor, the students in Class D had a rather harmonious relationship. They had never had the usual bullying behavior in online literature. ¡°Teacher Gui, I think ¨C¡± Before Fang Yuan could finish his sentence, Gui Wentong rudely interrupted him. ¡°I don¡¯t want you to think, I want to think, I think that you are a waste of talent in my Class D. Anyway, the principal has replied and asked the Academic Affairs Department to decide the results of the class distribution according to the results of the arcane realm trial. I will personally send you to Class A tomorrow.¡± Fang Yuan wanted to say more, but Gui Wentong raised his glass full of fruit juice. ¡°Stop talking nonsense, have a drink!¡± He could only shake his head helplessly. ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t hold you back after drinking this glass. Hurry home and tell your mother the good news.¡± ¡­ At home, in the kitchen, the hot muffins were still on the table. But the taste of honey was missing. His mother was wearing an apron and busying herself by the stove. When she saw Fang Yuan, she was about to greet him for dinner as usual. Fang Yuan went over and hugged her tightly. To her mother, the arcane realm trial was nothing more than three days. But to Fang Yuan, the cultivation time increased by a hundred times was almost a whole year. ¡°It¡¯s good that you¡¯re back. You¡¯re not injured in the arcane realm, right?¡± Her mother looked at Fang Yuan¡¯s face and saw a few hard stubbles on his handsome face. ¡°Eat something first. The muffins are cold. I¡¯ll heat them up for you.¡± She turned to the stove and prepared to heat it up. However, the blower on the edge of the stove seemed to be broken, and the fire was not strong enough. Seeing this, Fang Yan summoned the light butterfly, ¡°Wind!¡± The pure white butterfly behind him flapped its wings and blew the flame in the stove. ¡°Silver-quality light butterfly!¡± His mother looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief. ¡°This is¡­ Xiao Yuan, your new pet?!¡± Fang Yuan shook his head. ¡°No, this is your new pet.¡± He gently raised his hand, and the companion beast contract was canceled. Unlike the huge damage caused by a natal beast canceling the contract, the cancellation of the companion beast contract would not affect the trainer. Therefore, he easily kept the light butterfly back. It turned into a contract gem that emitted a faint white light. ¡°I especially caught it for you in the arcane realm.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mother understood the ability of the light butterfly very well. One had to know that in the private veterinary hospital where she worked, the director¡¯s natal beast was the light butterfly. It was said that it had a total of three supporting skills. Especially the healing light, it would be of great help to her work as a pet nurse. In the future, it would also be more advantageous to promote to the head nurse. But she still shook her head and refused. ¡°No need. You can keep it. It¡¯s good that you have this intention. As for my natal beast, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve already thought of a way. Isn¡¯t there going to be a pet market soon? When the time comes, I might be able to buy a good one at a low price. The light butterfly will stay on your side. When the time comes, it can be used in school competitions and exams. It can also be used for self-defense at critical moments¡­¡± His mother nagged. Fang Yuan had already expected this scene. He knew that if he did not make her worry away, his mother would not accept this natal beast easily. ¡°Come out, my pets.¡± Fang Yuan waved his hand lightly. The shadow wolf, the healing queen bee, the iris spider king, and dozens of light butterflies flapped their wings. The room was filled with butterflies. Chapter 11 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio His mother¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°These¡­ are all your pets?!¡± ¡°As you can see.¡± Fang Yuan smiled faintly. It was not that he wanted to deliberately show off in front of his own mother, but he wanted to show enough confidence. Only then could his mother be at ease. He wanted to use this method to tell her that your son already had the ability to defend himself. Indeed, his mother was shocked by Fang Yuan¡¯s display of strength. ¡°It¡¯s only been three days in the arcane realm, how¡­ how did you do it¡­¡± His mother was still immersed in the shock. The number of pets a trainer could tame depended on one¡¯s mental strength. From the current situation, not only did the quality and quantity of his son¡¯s pets had improved greatly, these close to a hundred pet beasts also completely proved that his individual combat strength had improved by leaps and bounds. ¡°Oh, how should I put it? I just had a little fortuitous encounter.¡± Fang Yuan really did not know how to say it. He could not say that he had obtained a hundred fold amplification system, killed monsters in the arcane realm for more than a hundred days, and captured pet beasts for more than a hundred days. Even if he said it, his mother would probably find it hard to accept. He might as well give a vague description. He knew that with his mother¡¯s personality, she would not investigate further. ¡°Anyway, the current situation is that I have two silver-quality light butterflies in my hands. You can take one with you without worry.¡± His mother muttered to herself, as if she was still in a trance. ¡­ After a whole day of shock to his mother, Fang Yuan arrived at the school. As soon as he entered the school gate, he received more attention than usual. ¡°Look, it¡¯s him. He¡¯s the one who took first place in the arcane realm trial.¡± ¡°How scary. Is he really a freshman who just advanced to the third year of high school?¡± ¡°Newbies are all monsters! That¡¯s right!¡± ¡°And he¡¯s also very good-looking. Is the school organizing an all-out outing? I wonder if there¡¯s a chance to invite him over.¡± ¡°Forget it. You can change your boyfriend faster than you can change your clothes. Why don¡¯t you leave it to me? I¡¯ll only climb on brother Fang Yuan¡¯s bed.¡± ¡°Stop being infatuated. Didn¡¯t they say that sister Chen Ying from Class A has already taken a liking to Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°¡­¡± Just like how he was indifferent to other people¡¯s negative comments, Fang Yuan turned a deaf ear to them even if he heard them. He did not care who had ¡°taken a fancy¡± to him. When he arrived at Class D, Fang Yuan immediately received warm applause like the return of a hero. However, before he stepped into the classroom, Teacher Gui had pushed him out. Gui Wentong had already helped Fang Yuan complete all the procedures for transferring class. ¡°You can stay in Class A at ease. Oh right, there¡¯s a class cadre quota being allocated over there. I¡¯ve won you a position as a disciplinary committee member.¡± Gui Wentong¡¯s voice came from afar. ¡°Remember to maintain class discipline before class teacher Peng of Class A arrives!¡± ¡°Sigh, alright.¡± Fang Yuan nodded helplessly. This was Teacher Gui¡¯s personality. For the sake of the students, he didn¡¯t have to refute anyone or anything like that. Thus, he left the entrance of Class D. He continued to walk upstairs. Of the four classes, Class A, B, C, and D, Class B, C, and D were located on the first floor of the teaching building. Only Class A occupied the second floor. In terms of infrastructure in every aspects, it was much better than the other students. He walked up and just as he reached the door of Class A, he heard a noise. It had been quite a while since the bell rang. Fang Yuan was looking for an empty seat to sit down. ¡°Eh? Is there a new student in our class?¡± ¡°This is the student who ranked first in the arcane realm trial yesterday, right?¡± ¡°Frankly speaking, he¡¯s very handsome.¡± ¡°Can handsome be a meal? He probably found a place to hide and slept for three days and three nights before he finally came out. You know that these commoners are the best at working their way up.¡± ¡°How can such a coward who avoids battles be qualified to transfer to Class A?¡± As they spoke, a few well-dressed young nobles in the front row stood up. ¡°I don¡¯t know what method you used to sneak into our class, but I want to tell you that Class A is not a place that just anyone can enter.¡± The boy standing at the very front was practically looking at people through his nose. According to the class roster given by teacher Gui, he knew that this person was the eldest son of the Wang family, Wang Zijun. He was usually arrogant. Wang Zijun said, ¡°Class A of The First High School is a class where strength is paramount. If a person like you enters, it will only lower the average standard of the entire class. When the time comes for the multiple-school examination, the one who will lose face will not be you alone, but the entire class. Let me give you a piece of advice. Go back to where you came from.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± The boy who stood behind him was only half a step away. He had a rather attentive expression on his face. He was the eldest grandson of the Li family, Li Yizheng. ¡°It¡¯s useless to play tricks like you did yesterday.¡± ¡°Brother Wang, Brother Li, don¡¯t waste your breath on the commoners. Just tell him to get lost.¡± The one with the worst temper was Zhang Yu from the Zhang family. Zhang Yu took a step forward and knocked Fang Yuan hard with his elbow, intentionally or unintentionally. He knocked Fang Yuan in the direction of the door. Fang Yuan¡¯s expression was indifferent, as if he was not angered by these trash talk, ¡°It¡¯s class time now, I hope you can talk about discipline. If you have any questions, let¡¯s discuss after class.¡± ¡°Hahahaha! Discipline?¡± Zhang Yu seemed to be amused by a huge joke. ¡°You talk about discipline, let me tell you this. In Our Class A, whoever has the biggest fist is the discipline.¡± Before he finished his sentence, he swung his right uppercut, aiming directly at Fang Yuan¡¯s face. However, this fist that was full of strength was caught by a hand, dissipating the force into nothingness. What kind of joke was this! Fang Yuan had consumed over a hundred bottles of physical strength mixture in the acrane realm of the back mountain, killed over a hundred demonized sparrows, and captured over a hundred light butterflies. His originally robust body had become incomparably strong during his training. If he couldn¡¯t even take a punch from these nobles, then he would be finished. He twisted his hand. Zhang Yu cried out in pain. ¡°Thank you for your advice. Now I know how to manage Class A¡¯s discipline.¡± The smile on Fang Yuan¡¯s face was in stark contrast to the other party¡¯s distortion. ¡°He still dares to hit me!¡± Zhang Yu roared loudly, as if whoever had the loudest decibel was in the right. ¡°Brothers, bring your pets and go up and kill him!¡± Chapter 12 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The classroom of Class A was shining brightly. Zhang Yuan summoned his pet. These children of the aristocratic families had been playing together since they were young and wished they could wear the same pants. Now that they saw that their brother was in trouble, they immediately attacked together. ¡°Storm Sparrow!¡± ¡°Netherworld Crocodile!¡± ¡°Berserk Lynx!¡± Colorful lights lit up. Pet beasts were summoned from different contract gems. Fang Yuan glanced at them. The situation was naturally different from the situation with the rest of Class D¡¯s black iron members. The pets of the Class A students were basically all above bronze-quality. In fact, most of them were silver-quality pets. ¡°Rule 42. Without permission, those who release pets to attack others in the classroom will be expelled from the classroom!¡± Fang Yuan immediately summoned the Shadow Wolf to fight. Most of the pets in the class were level one, and the strongest ones were only at the peak of level one. The level two Shadow Wolves here had a huge advantage. But Fang Yuan wanted more than just an advantage. As a commoner, he wanted to study and live peacefully in Class A. He had to defeat all of their arrogance in one go. ¡°Come out, Iris Spider King!¡± With a flash of Golden Light, a purple-red spider appeared in front of everyone. Someone shouted first, ¡°Oh my God! It¡¯s gold-quality!¡± ¡°Why would a gold pet beast appear?¡± ¡°Ahhhh, I want gold too!¡± ¡°I hate it so much. Fang Yuan, a commoner, actually has a gold pet beast. I hate it so much that my eyes are bloodshot and my teeth are crushed!¡± ¡°Why? Why? This shouldn¡¯t be. I don¡¯t even have a pet in our house. What right does he have? What right does he have?¡± ¡°Does he deserve it?¡± The moment the gold-quality iris spider king appeared, many of the brothers behind had lost a lot of their will to fight. Now, they were more interested in observing this rare golden pet. ¡°What are you all standing there for? We have more people. Let¡¯s attack together!¡± ¡°Beat him up.¡± Zhang Yu stepped forward again. Fang Yuan naturally would not spoil his temper. He immediately reached out his hand. His arm was not thick, but it was as strong as a vise. He grabbed Zhang Yu¡¯s collar. Then, he threw him down. With a bang, the glass shattered. Zhang Yu was thrown down from the second floor by Fang Yuan. The second floor of the teaching building was not too high. It was only two to three meters tall. He would definitely not die if he fell, but it was inevitable that he would be injured for 100 days. ¡°He actually hit someone, hit him!¡± ¡°Storm Sparrow, hurricane!¡± ¡°Netherworld Crocodile, steel fang!¡± ¡°Berserk Lynx, triple claw attack!¡± When the people around saw that Zhang Yu was hit, they immediately hid behind their pets and let the pets attack first. ¡°Iris, spider web.¡± Among the skills of the iris spider king, the spider web had a 100-fold increase in its range. A thick spider web suddenly attacked from all directions. Regardless of the consequences, all the pets standing in the front row were caught in one net. They were wrapped up into a huge bundle. Then, the shadow wolf cooperated and used collision, directly pushing the white spider web ball out of the window. The Class A students who were hiding behind their pets.just watched as their pets were sent flying by a series of attacks. They were about to escape. However, there was no chance for them to escape. Fang Yuan grabbed their collars and threw them downstairs. ¡°Go, Xie Siwen, what are you waiting for? Seize the opportunity!¡± ¡°Chang Yongjian, you make it sound so easy. Why don¡¯t you go yourself?¡± ¡°Feng Bingbing, why are you pretending to be a lady? You were the one who shouted the loudest just now. Why are you cowardly hiding under the table now?¡± ¡°Okay, okay, okay. You¡¯re not a coward. You¡¯re so brave. Then why did you run to the back door?!¡± Seeing that the people in front had been thrown downstairs, the students who were shouting just now.they were so scared that no one dared to act rashly. They were all looking for cover up and hiding behind. As they were hiding, they called for others to charge forward. ¡°Just him!¡± ¡°Beat him up!¡± ¡°Our teammates are on their way.¡± ¡°Open the voice chat.¡± ¡°Gather and prepare for the team battle.¡± ¡°All troops, attack!¡± Everyone was shouting, but no one went forward. Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were very sharp. He had identified those students who had violated the classroom rules. He went up and sent them a set of spider webs. He threw them out of the window. The students from Class B, C, and D were having a good class downstairs. There was noise from above. ¡°Teacher, something seems to be falling from the sky.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t look at the blackboard in class. What are you looking at out of the window? Listen to me carefully so that you can get into Class A like Fang Yuan did!¡± ¡°No, teacher, there seem to be a lot of people falling from the window sill of Class A!¡± ¡°What did you say?!¡± The teachers of several classes walked out of the classroom one after another and came to the corridor. The students ignored the rules of conduct and rushed out to look up. They saw a student who looked like a dumpling wrapped in a spider web falling from upstairs every few seconds. The playground was filled with such dumpling. They had all fallen from Class A. ¡°F*ck, is Class A¡¯s combat training always this harsh?¡± ¡°As expected of a Class A student.¡± ¡°Sigh, I wonder if brother Fang Yuan will be able to get used to the intensity of this training after he goes upstairs.¡± ¡°Even if he can¡¯t get used to it, he still has to. That bunch of Class A students are very elitist, and no one is willing to submit to anyone. Every year, after the class division exams, they will always make a scene until the class has chosen a publicly recognized leader.¡± ¡°Even so, you can¡¯t hit people. Have you heard? They said the one who hit people, threw the students out of the window without any reason!¡± ¡°D*mn, that¡¯s too cruel! Where¡¯s Brother Yuan? How¡¯s the situation? Did he get hurt?¡± ¡°No,¡± the person stuttered for a long time, ¡°they said¡­ the one who hit people is Fang Yuan!¡± The students from Class B, C and D, ¡°WTF? ? ?¡± Chapter 13 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The First High School, Grade 3 Class A, the class teacher Peng Yimeng walked into the classroom. Peng Yimeng was as cute as her name suggested. She was a thin and small silver-haired girl. Rather than calling her a teacher, she was more like a student. Even the school¡¯s doorman often got her wrong. When she had just arrived at the teaching building, she had already noticed the abnormality. It should be said that as long as one was not blind, they would be able to notice the abnormality. A large number of students were wrapped in spider silk like mummies, hanging upside down on the first floor of the classroom building, A gentle breeze blew past, they swayed slightly like a wind chime. The scene looked very strange. She walked into the classroom. Tables, chairs, and benches were overturned, and the windows panes were shattered all over the floor. A few students were shivering at the back door. Only Fang Yuan was standing in the middle of the classroom, looking like the Shura God of War. Another beautiful girl, who was long and straight hair was sitting at the back of the classroom. She was flipping through the pages of a book, as if this scene had nothing to do with her. She was the daughter of the Chen family, the flower of The First High School, Chen Ying. She was also one of the few Class A students who did not participate in the attack on Fang Yuan. ¡°Why are there only so few people in the class?¡± Peng Yimeng¡¯s voice was also baby-like, sounding soft and gentle. ¡°Where¡¯s the disciplinary committee member?¡± ¡°Here I¡¯m.¡± ¡°Weren¡¯t you maintaining class discipline before the teacher came?¡± ¡°I was maintaining class discipline.¡± ¡°If you said you were, then where did the other students go?¡± ¡°Because they didn¡¯t follow the rules, I threw them out.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Peng Yimeng was silent for a long time, then she couldn¡¯t help but laugh. This class A seemed to be more interesting than she had imagined, ¡°So you¡¯re the transfer student from Class D, Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°It seems that you¡¯ve already had a full exchange with the students in your class. Since the students who didn¡¯t follow the rules have been invited out of the classroom, then let¡¯s continue with the class.¡± The classroom was riddled with holes, and Peng Yimeng was actually still in the mood to continue with the lesson. And when Fang Yuan heard her say this, he actually found a desk to sit down at and started to listen to her lecture seriously. Because of the chaotic battle just now, most of the tables and chairs were either broken or overturned. For some time, he really did not find a quiet desk. Only student Chen Ying had an empty seat next to her. He walked straight over and sat down. He listened attentively to the class. It was until the class was over that the students who had been thrown out of the classroom by Fang Yuan came back one after another. When they saw the class teacher in the podium, they immediately filed a complaint and reported against him. ¡°Teacher Peng, this Fang Yuan had a conflict with the students as soon as he entered the class. This is not in accordance with the school rules. I suggest that he be expelled immediately.¡± ¡°His attacks were serious. He injured many of the students. Especially Zhang Yu, Li Yi Zheng, Wang Zi Jun and a few other noblemen were also beaten up.¡± ¡°This affects the relationship among classmates. Class A can¡¯t tolerate him, and the school can¡¯t tolerate him.¡± ¡­ The report flooded the podium like a tsunami. Some sophisticated students even used their family background to pressure Peng Yimeng. ¡°Teacher Peng, my father is the deputy director of the Education Bureau. I hope this matter can be properly handled.¡± ¡°My mother is a specially appointed professor at the PET research institute in Chuxin City. If she knew that I was beaten up, she would definitely not let it go.¡± ¡°Before my grandfather retired, he worked at the city hall. Although he retired in the past few years, he is still able to have a few words to say to some of his old friends who have been promoted. I feel that Fang Yuan, a commoner, has offended his superiors. Setting a precedent is really inappropriate and should be severely punished.¡± ¡°¡­¡± As everyone knew, the students who were able to attend Class A of The First High School had extraordinary family backgrounds. It could be said that they were either rich or noble. They were either able to summon the wind and the rain in the business world, or able to act swiftly in the political arena. There were also some who had made achievements after joining the army. In any case, everyone¡¯s family had a certain amount of capital. With Fang Yuan¡¯s commoner background, he naturally could not afford to offend any of them. Peng Yimeng herself was also from the commoner class, and she could not bear to see noble children bullying others with their power. When everyone started gossiping and accusing, the whole story was told as if Fang Yuan was a bully causing a ruckus in Class A. Only then did Peng Yimeng cough twice, clear her throat and said, ¡°You guys stop for a moment, let me hear what class monitor Chen Ying has to say.¡± Just now, Chen Ying had stayed out of the matter, and a bystander could see clearly. She stood up and told them the whole story. Although her attitude caused many of the students who wanted to take revenge on Fang Yuan to be unhappy, her family was the most prominent among Zhang, Wang, Li and Chen, the four aristocratic families. Her background was here, no one dared to cause trouble in front of her. ¡°Regarding student Chen Ying¡¯s statement, does anyone have any objections?¡± Everyone was silent. ¡°Alright, then I understand.¡± Peng Yimeng nodded, she gave her plan. ¡°Firstly, Zhang Yu, Li Yizheng, Wang Zijun, and most of the other students, without permission, initiated a pet battle in the classroom, violating the school rules. As they have already received appropriate punishment, they will not be punished further for the time being Secondly, student Fang Yuan, as the Class A discipline committee member, gave advice to students who did not abide by the rules. It was originally a good thing, but the way he dealt with it was too violent. In actual fact, his actions also violated the school rules that forbade pet battle. Furthermore, it caused a negative impact on a small number of other students who did not participate in the battle. Without the rules, nothing can be accomplished. He should be punished slightly. Let Fang Yuan apologize to the students who did not participate in the battle.¡± The people below the stage were dissatisfied. F*ck! We had all been beaten up to this state! He was neither expelled from the school, nor Class A. Fang Yuan only needed to apologize, and casually put the matter behind him? It was like he was raising his hand up high and letting it go lightly. Zhang Yu was the first to raise his hand. He rubbed his butt that was about to break into eight pieces and struggled to stand up. ¡°I don¡¯t agree. Hitting someone is a big taboo in school. It can¡¯t just be that simple.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true. How about this?¡± Peng Yimeng knew that Zhang Yu was the initiator of the attack. The one who should be punished wasn¡¯t Fang Yuan, but him. However, she did not say much. With a thought, a sly smile appeared on her face, ¡°Tomorrow is the first test after the third year of high school. Before that, the school has a mobilization meeting. Let Fang Yuan apologize to all of you in front of all the teachers and students. How about that?¡± When the audience heard Teacher Peng¡¯s words, it seemed that the severity of the punishment had increased. They all cheered. Zhang Yu did not think much about it and nodded his head in agreement with the teacher¡¯s solution. He tilted his head and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Tomorrow, I will bring a video camera to record your apology and repeat it on school television.¡± The students who were beaten seemed to have vented their anger. After class, they returned home in groups of twos or threes. Only the pretty girl, Chen Ying, who was sitting next to Fang Yuan, gave a strange look at Peng Yimeng, who could not help but laugh on the podium. She shook her head helplessly and said in a low voice, ¡°You¡¯re right. Teacher Peng looks like a cute little girl who is pink and tender. When cut open, her heart is black.¡± Her best friend asked curiously, ¡°You mean¡­ ?¡± Chen Ying sighed. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me these people really think that Teacher Peng would make Fang Yuan apologize in front of the entire school, and that the one who would lose face would be Fang Yuan?¡± Chapter 14 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After the students in the class left the classroom one after another, Peng Yimeng waved her hand, asking Fang Yuan to stay, saying that she had something to tell him. ¡°I¡¯ve always been a clear-cut person. After each class¡¯s division exam is completed, each class will select the most outstanding student from within and receive the reward.¡± ¡°From Class D to Class A, the rewards will become more and more generous.¡± ¡°This is also why Teacher Gui is anxious to send you to Class A at this crucial moment.¡± ¡°Originally, according to the procedure, it should be for the students in the class to elect, but ¨C¡± Teacher Peng paused for a moment and looked at Fang Yuan with her big eyes. She could not help but laugh, ¡°Today, you single-handedly defeated all the students in Class A. This is a fact that has been witnessed by everyone. I¡¯m afraid there¡¯s no need to vote anymore. Today I¡¯ll give you the reward that you deserved.¡± She rummaged through the little rabbit satchel on her body and found a scroll-like object that looked like a lipstick. ¡°Secret scroll. This is a skill that can be learned by pets. It¡¯s called Light Prism. The ability is to ignore the pet¡¯s defense and directly attack the opponent¡¯s trainer.¡± ¡°When your pet learns this skill, it will be easier to fight.¡± Peng Yimeng put the secret scroll on the table. Then she waved her hand. ¡°As for tomorrow¡¯s apology, I don¡¯t need to remind you what to do. I¡¯m waiting for a wonderful show! Bye bye!¡± She stuck out her tongue mischievously, left the scroll behind, and left the classroom. Fang Yuan took the scroll. [ Ding. Level 3 secret scroll detected. Skill: Light Prism. ] [ Proceed to 100-fold increase? ] [ The host can choose from the following ways to receive the increase. ] [ First, give up 100-fold increase, obtain level 3 secret scroll. Light prism. It is only suitable for light-type and dual-element flying pets. ] [ Second, 100-fold increase in level, obtain level 4 secret scroll. Light prism breakthrough. It is only suitable for light-type and dual-element flying pets. ] [ Third, 100-fold increase in suitability, obtain level 3 secret scroll. Light prism. Applicable to pet beasts of all attributes. ] Fang Yuan counted the pet beasts in his hands. He did indeed have a light-type and flying-type dual-attribute pet beast on him. That was the light butterfly, light. Unlike the one that was given to his mother as a natal contract beast, this one¡¯s quality and level were similar to that. It was also a level 3 silver-grade intermediate-grade pet beast. It was just that it lacked [ healing ray ] as a support skill. Therefore, it wasn¡¯t suitable for his mother, so he kept it for himself. However, it didn¡¯t mean that it wasn¡¯t worth nurturing. If he could use a secret technique scroll to let it learn [ light edge breakthrough ] , it would be a pretty good enhancement to the pet lineup from afar. This was because his current main battle pets were mainly the shadow wolf and the iris spider king. The strength of these two pet beasts were pretty good. However, their attack methods were mainly physical attacks. And the light edge breakthrough was a relatively strong attack method for non-physical attacks (special attacks) . It had a very good penetration effect. It could ignore the damage dealt by defensive skills and defensive items. Whether it was against wild pets or trainers, it was a surprise attack. He thought about it. Fang Yuan chose the second option, the 100-fold increase in level, and summoned his light butterfly, called Light. Light flashed, and light learned the level four light edge breakthrough. After a whole night of deliberate practice, the next morning, on the playground of The First High School, there was a red banner with the words ¡°Grade Three Freshmen Pledge Meeting cum School-Wide Practical Test.¡±. The so-called pledge ceremony was a common ceremony in all the high schools. It was to call on teachers, students, and their parents to announce the college entrance exam to boost morale. It was equivalent to a large-scale parent-teacher conference at school level. Because senior high school was the most critical school year, all the parents valued it¡¯s importance. Even if they were busy with work, they would still make time to attend. After the pledge ceremony, they would directly hold practical test on the playground. The exam would be conducted in a one-on-one fight, and the students who passed would get the chance to go to the arcane realm again. ¡°Dear teachers, parents, and students, time flies. Everyone is about to welcome the intense and full study life of the third year of high school. We may be worried, anxious, expectant, or yearning¡­¡± At the opening, the Dean of Education came up with some real nonsense. In this sunny season, everyone was drowsy. After talking for a long time, he changed the topic. ¡°However, in such a harmonious learning environment, just yesterday, something not so harmonious happened.¡± ¡°Please invite grade three Class A¡¯s Teacher Peng to come on stage and issue a notice of criticism.¡± Followed by what he said, the beautiful white short-haired girl Peng Yimeng walked up to the stage and immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention. The students who dozed off earlier immediately woke up and stared unblinkingly at the absolute domain beneath teacher Peng¡¯s short skirt. Peng Yimeng frowned and said, ¡°The thing is, student Fang Yuan, who had just transferred from Class D to Class A, is a member of the Discipline Committee. However, when he was executing the class rules, he summoned his pet and consecutively beat up 23 students of Class A. Not only did he beat them up until they were unable to retaliate, he even threw them out of the window and down the stairs. He even hung them upside down! This kind of violent behavior is a serious violation of the school rules. Here, on behalf of the school, I will severely criticize this kind of bad behavior. Now, I want to let student Fang Yuan of grade three Class A, go on stage personally and read out his profound reflection to all the teachers and students in the school. I also want to express my sincerest apologies to the 23 students who were beaten by him!¡± Once these words were said, the entire place was in an uproar. ¡°F* k, is this for real, one person beating up 23 students?¡± ¡°And it¡¯s the kind of favored children from Class A!¡± ¡°It¡¯s said that this Fang Yuan is a transfer student who just transferred from Class D.¡± ¡°Bullsh*t!¡± ¡°No, he directly threw them out of the window and even hung them up. This description is too funny, right? hahahaha!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a pity that you didn¡¯t see as you were on leave yesterday. There was a fight upstairs, and they were falling down from the stairs. Hiss, it was so exciting.¡± ¡°A group of Class A students couldn¡¯t fight against a single from Class D. Oh my God, this is too embarrassing.¡± ¡°Awesome. If I were one of these twenty-three people, I definitely wouldn¡¯t have the face to go out and meet people today.¡± Chapter 15 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°D*mn it. If I were one of these 23 people, I wouldn¡¯t have the face to go out and meet people today.¡± These words woke up the persons in the dream. Today was the school¡¯s senior student oath assembly. All the students, teachers and parents were present. If Fang Yuan called out the names at such an occasion, everyone would know that the one being called out was one of the more than 20 people who couldn¡¯t beat him. It was embarrassing. It was extremely embarrassing. Every student in Class A came from an extraordinary background. Their families were either in business or politics. They were the heirs of the upper class. To these young masters, the most important thing was their dignity and face. Speaking of which, they were the proud sons of heaven of Class A of The First High School. In the end, a group of people couldn¡¯t handle one person. How did they survive if this was spread out in the future? Fang Yuan was quite calm. After Teacher Peng Yimeng gave him a sly wink, he stood out from the last row of the line. He strolled up to the rostrum. In any case, today was the first day her mother was promoted to head nurse in the hospital. She was busy working overtime at the pet veterinary hospital, and did not come to the oath assembly. If he went up for the review by the entire school, he would not be the one who was embarrassed. As he walked past the class queue, his classmates who had fought with him earlier kept tugging his sleeve and whispering in his ear. ¡°Fang Yuan, I¡¯ve thought about it. I don¡¯t want you to apologize. Please don¡¯t mention my name. My dad is listening at the back.¡± ¡°Yeah, yeah. I don¡¯t need mine either. It¡¯s just a small fight between classmates. There¡¯s no need to go overboard.¡± ¡°Right, right. We don¡¯t know each other until we fight.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t apologize to me! I¡¯m begging you, okay?¡± ¡°Brother Yuan, you¡¯re not wrong. You¡¯re not wrong at all. It¡¯s my fault, Brother Yuan!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Fang Yuan walked onto the stage and stood in front of the microphone on the rostrum. He swept his gaze across all the teachers, students, and parents of his classmates. There were people continuously sending him glances. There were even more discussions. ¡°So it¡¯s him. He was also the one who drew the silver-quality pet in the incubator, right? I knew that this kid must be extraordinary.¡± ¡°Awesome. He single-handedly defeated 23 people. From now on, I¡¯ll be Brother Yuan¡¯s number one dog-licking subordinate.¡± ¡°And he¡¯s so handsome. That¡¯s ridiculous. Does anyone of you have Fang Yuan¡¯s phone number? I don¡¯t have any other intentions. I just want to ask him a few questions about studies.¡± ¡°I¡¯m different. I¡¯m just saying what I want to say. I just want his body.¡± Many of the classmates who fought with Fang Yuan were usually unruly in school. Thus they had many enemies. Hearing them being hung up and beaten badly, they felt satisfied. At this moment, Fang Yuan, who was standing on the stage, was not only not the sinner of the school, but also received hero-like respect. ¡°Yesterday, 23 students summoned pets in the classroom. As the disciplinary committee member, I did not use the correct method to restrain them. Instead, I launched a pet battle and threw them out of the window. I would like to apologize to the following students. They are:¡± ¡°F*ck, no, don¡¯t mention my name, please.¡± ¡°Brother, Brother Fang Yuan, you are my biological brother.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t, my parents are here. When we go back, it will be a mixed doubles.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Fang Yuan completely ignored their shouts. ¡°Zhang Yu, Li Yizheng, Wang Zijun, ¡­ classmate¡­¡± The faces of the few students whose names were said were ashen. It was as if they had lost their hope of survival. Their parents were seated behind them. All of their faces were ashen. As the elders of these aristocratic families, they did not care if the juniors were fighting in school. The key was whether they had won or not. Right now, it was a group of people fighting against one person, and they had all lost terribly. It was too humiliating for the family. The other students were whispering and snickering. After Fang Yuan read out the twenty-three names, the faces of the twenty-three people turned red. They wished they could find a hole to hide in. Just as the awkward atmosphere was slightly alleviated, Teacher Peng Yimeng continued, ¡°Next, let¡¯s invite the students whose names have been read out to come up to the stage and accept student Fang Yuan¡¯s apology.¡± Zhang Yu, ¡°???¡± Li Yizheng, ¡°???¡± Wang Zijun, ¡°???¡± All of the students who took the lead in declaring war yesterday, none was not thrown out of the window by Fang Yuan. They fell from the three-meter-high balcony to the ground floor. Even martial artists would be bruised from the fall. Not to mention ordinary high school students. These students were like eggplants that had been hit by frost. They went up the stage unwillingly and listlessly. This caused waves of laughter on the stage. It was no longer an apology. It was a large-scale exhibition of Fang Yuan and his defeated opponents. Thinking of this, Peng Yimeng could not help but snicker. ¡­ The oath-taking assembly came to an end in such an atmosphere. Next was the practical combat examination. This competition was held every year in the third year of high school. The students who won would have the chance to enter the arcane realm again. This was exactly what Fang Yuan wanted. He had always been thinking about the bear pet beast that was as big as a mountain range in the arcane realm at the back of the mountain. If he could get the chance to go to the arcane realm again, no matter what Fang Yuan would think of a way to capture it. The Dean of Education went on stage and nagged about the rules of the actual combat exam. In fact, this was a clich¨¦ because every year, there were only three rules. First, drew lots in twos to fight with each other. Based on the outcome of the battle and various different situations, where points would be accumulated and deducted, to derive the final total score. Second, it was not allowed to harm the opponent¡¯s trainer¡¯s or pet¡¯s safety. Third, in the competition, abstention was allowed, and any other pet props were allowed. These were the more common battle rules for trainers, but they were different from the past. The dean mentioned that the students who won the first place in the practical exam this year would be eligible to enter the pet trade fair in Chuxin City. This made many students¡¯ eyes light up. Many people let out a ¡°wow¡± sound. As everyone knew, the pet trade fair was held regularly every year. Pet trainers from all over the country would gather in Chuxin City to trade their pets. Of course, this trade was not to sell their pets for money or anything like that. Very few trainers would do such a thing. They were more willing to choose to use their idle pets to exchange for other¡¯s pets. Maybe what they had was what you lacked. Or maybe it was the other way around. Based on Fang Yuan¡¯s previous experience, he understood that when a trainer chose his pet, he had to pay attention to the lineup and coordination. The pet trade fair would be a great opportunity for him to fill in the gaps in his lineup. Fang Yuan naturally wouldn¡¯t miss it. Then he would give himself a small goal to become the champion of this practical test. Chapter 16 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio With the instruction of the dean, the combat practical test officially began. The students of each class began to draw the participants randomly. The other students had already finished drawing the lots, and the students who drew the lots finally felt relieved. ¡°Wow! Wonderful! I¡¯m not going to fight with that demon Fang Yuan!¡± As long as they didn¡¯t draw Fang Yuan, looking at the opponents that they had drawn, they felt they were extraordinary amiable. They had never felt that their opponent¡¯s face was so likable. They even wanted to go up and give him a kiss. The students who had not drawn lot frowned. Their expressions were solemn, and their eyes were dull. They had a feeling of constipation. The student who reached out his hand to touch the box murmured while touching it, ¡°No, no, Fang Yuan, don¡¯t come over!¡± ¡°Eh! I got it!¡± ¡°B*stard, what did you get? !¡± ¡°Great, I don¡¯t have to fight with Fang Yuan!¡± The other students on the stage still remembered how badly they had been beaten up yesterday. Obviously, some people were sneaky, some were tough, and Fang Yuan didn¡¯t care about their life. No one wanted to be beaten up in front of all the teachers, students, and parents, so badly that even their own mothers couldn¡¯t recognize him. ¡°Fortunately, you don¡¯t have to fight with Fang Yuan. Congratulations.¡± ¡°Same to you.¡± Li Yizheng was still looking around the drawing counter. He reached out and touched the lot. ¡°Let me see who the unlucky guy to fight with Fang Yuan is.¡± He slowly opened up the lot that he had drawn. On it was a line of elegant signature: Fang Yuan. Li Yizheng¡¯s eyes almost popped out. ¡°It¡¯s actually me? F *ck you, why?!¡± The students lining up at the back secretly felt relieved and patted his shoulder to show their empathy. ¡°The first match, Class A Fang Yuan versus Class A Li Yizheng.¡± ¡°Now, please walk up to the opposite platform.¡± Li Yizheng rubbed his head, which had been hurting from yesterday¡¯s beating, and walked up reluctantly. On the other side, Fang Yuan was frank and open. He cupped his hands and said, ¡°Great to meet you.¡± ¡°Now, please summon your respective battle pets.¡± ¡°Three, two, one, the match begins.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s shadow wolf and Iris spider king were already waiting on the field. It was the same lineup as yesterday. It was still a familiar prescription, and a familiar smell. Li Yizheng realized that when he stood on the stage, he could still remembered the pain from yesterday. His legs could not help but tremble. The pet beast he summoned was not the Nether Croc from yesterday. Instead, it was a small snail-like insect. Fang Yuan focused his eyes and listened carefully. To his surprise, he found out the insect seemed to be talking to him, and its voice was still Li Yizheng¡¯s. ¡°I say, student Fang Yuan, oh no, Brother Fang Yuan, I want to discuss something with you. My family is watching from below.¡± It seemed that Li Yizheng was using the insect to transmit his voice. He didn¡¯t expect the pet beast to have such a function, which was strange. Before Fang Yuan could react, Li Yizheng was silent for a while and then continued, ¡°Three thousand dollars, no face slapping, how about it?¡± ¡°¡­¡± About the situation of Li Yizheng¡¯s Li family, Fang Yuan had heard a little about it. The Li family started out in business and was considered the most wealthy financial group among the four families. Their family¡¯s young master, Li Yizheng, obviously had completely inherited the style of his family. If he could solve a problem with money, he didn¡¯t need to solve it with his fists. Moreover, he couldn¡¯t solve it with his fists¡­ If he could not win, he would join in. This was the principle that his family believed in. ¡°Five thousand,¡± Fang Yuan did not hesitate for long, and then added another condition, ¡°and the pet beast that you have on you to transmit your voice.¡± ¡°Deal.¡± Li Yizheng immediately nodded. Fang Yuan called the Shadow Wolf to come forward, and with a collision, it hit the opponent¡¯s waist, knocking Li Yizheng out of the boundary. The referee, ¡°Contestant Li Yizheng is out of bounds! Fang Yuan wins!¡± Li Yizheng, who had been knocked out, patted his butt happily and stood up. Fang Yuan had controlled his strength very well. It looked very impactful, but in fact, it did not hurt at all. ¡°What an impressive battle!¡± Li Yizheng stretched out his hand and shook Fang Yuan¡¯s hand tightly. The contract of the little bug was immediately transferred to the latter. At the same time, he also sent a message from Li Yizheng, ¡°Thank you for your care, Brother Yuan. You will reap the most honorable friendship of the Li family.¡± [ Choose a hundred times enhanced quality. ] The pet bug that he obtained was called the echo snail. Although its quality was only black iron, and it was still only a high-grade bronze tier after the 100 times amplification, its skill was very magical. Other than the [ voice transmission ] that Li Yizheng used just now, it could communicate with people in secret environments. After the 100 times amplification, he even obtained a very powerful and rare skill [ mind reading ] . The effect was that he could read the thoughts of trainers whose spiritual power was lower than his own. This was an unexpected gain. ¡­ Fang Yuan only used one move to knock Li Yizheng out of the bounds. The first match quickly passed, and the second match came. ¡°The second match, Class A Fang Yuan versus Class A Wang Zijun.¡± Wasn¡¯t this a coincidence? They were old acquaintances again. Wang Zijun¡¯s Wang family had an extraordinary background. A few years ago, when the era of pet beasts in the world had just begun, it was a turbulent era. The ancestor of the Wang family was the extraordinaire who was the first to obtain the power of the arcane realm in the obelisk. Because of this, the Wang family also rose into the upper class, becoming one of the four great aristocratic families in Chuxin City. The ancestors guarded the blue wave arcane realm at the mouth of the river into the sea for generations, which was equivalent to playing the role of the guardian of the arcane realm. Although the family¡¯s power had gradually declined over the years, the pride that was rooted in the bones of the old aristocrats was still there. Some aristocrats were behaving in this manner. They were clearly on the verge of their family¡¯s decline, but they still held on because of their face. Posturing was the first driving force of their actions. The Wang family, where Wang Zijun was from, was such a once aristocratic family. The family motto of the Wang family was to protect the honor of the guardians of the blue wave arcane realm at all costs. This family motto was passed down from the Wang family¡¯s ancestors to Wang Zijun¡¯s grandfather, Wang Zijun¡¯s father, and now to Wang Zijun. However, Wang Zijun along with the other 22 young masters of Class A was actually beaten up by a commoner, Fang Yuan. It was very dishonorable and very unaristocratic. Therefore, in today¡¯s combat training, Wang Zijun had to make up for it. ¡°Student Fang Yuan, I have to admit that in yesterday¡¯s battle, you displayed quite a remarkable strength and have already received the recognition of the Wang family. Although you are a young man with potential, you are still lacking in front of the Wang family. The Wang family cherishes talent and doesn¡¯t wish for me to accidentally injure you in the battle. I hope that you will admit defeat in advance and take the initiative to take a turn for nothing. Don¡¯t be unappreciative.¡± Wang Zijun started the vicious speech before the battle, but Fang Yuan used echo snail¡¯s [ mind reading ] skill. He heard Wang Zijun¡¯s thoughts. Chapter 17 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Wang Zijun looked at Fang Yuan with a face full of confidence. However, Fang Yuan could tell from the voice of echo snail that everything he said was fake. He was afraid of losing. He was scared to death. If he lost to the same person twice in a row, more so to a commoner without any family background, the reputation of the Wang family in Blue Wave Arcane Realm would definitely be ruined. Unlike the other aristocratic families in Chuxin City which were officials in the political circle, tycoons in the business street, or had spent their entire lives in the military, Wang family only had the title of the guardian of the arcane realm, which was left behind by their ancestors. If he couldn¡¯t even deal with a commoner, as the third-generation eldest grandson, Prince Zijun, and lost to the other party twice in a row in the competition, their entire family couldn¡¯t lift their heads up. He had learned from the experience of being trapped like a dumpling by the iris spider king during the pet battle with Fang Yuan yesterday. He had his pet storm sparrow learn the [ cut ] skill overnight, so that he could quickly escape from the iris¡¯s spider web. With this skill, at least he wouldn¡¯t have to be tied up and beaten. Even if he lost, he wouldn¡¯t have to lose so badly. The only thing he didn¡¯t know was if the iris spider king had any other skills. Generally speaking, spiders, this kind of insect-type pet beast, were very likely to have poison attributes. Better quality ones would even have the ability to paralyze the enemy. Regardless of whether it was poison or paralysis, in a battle between trainers, it could be removed by a special item like the [ evil-warding pearl ]. Unfortunately, the resources of his Wang family were relatively lacking compared to other families. The [ ciut ] secret scroll that was given to Wang Zijun was already the limit of what the family could afford. It was impossible to give him any other resources. Not to mention the extremely expensive [ evil-warding pearl ] . Hence, at this moment, when Fang Yuan aimed at Wang Zijun and used the echo snail skill [ mind reading ] , he heard the intense prayer in Wang Zijun¡¯s heart. ¡°This spider must not be poisonous, must not be poisonous, must not be poisonous.¡± If he was poisoned by Fang Yuan¡¯s pet spider, the entire school would see him foaming at the mouth. No matter if it was him or the Wang family, they could not afford to suffer such a blow. Fang Yuan heard Wang Zijun¡¯s thoughts. Facing Wang Zijun¡¯s half-inviting and half-threatening tone, he said calmly, ¡°Bring it on.¡± Wang Zijun¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He had a very bad feeling. ¡°Iris, skill [ fangs ] , skill [ paralysis ] .¡± Following Fang Yuan¡¯s command, Iris immediately revealed her purplish red fangs and raised one of her legs. Just as she was about to attack in the direction of Prince Jun¡­. ¡°Referee! Forfeit!¡± Prince Jun. immediately raised his hands and surrendered. The situation was worse than he had imagined. There were poison and paralysis. who could bear this. He had to admit defeat. He had to admit defeat immediately. Although he had lost the match, he could still barely maintain his dignity. Wang Zijun admitted defeat with his hand, he was still muttering, ¡°It seems that after our fight yesterday, Student Fang Yuan has grown a lot. It¡¯s really surprising. It seems that with your talent, you are enough to be my lifelong enemy. I hereby make a three-year pact with you. When we fight again in three years, we will see what kind of scene it will be like then.¡± Fang Yuan curled his lips. If he admitted defeat, so be it. This guy¡¯s show was too much. ¡°In the second round, Student Wang Zijun forfeits. Student Fang Yuan wins!¡± The next round was the third, fourth, and fifth round¡­ They didn¡¯t know how many rounds it was. Perhaps Wang Zijun¡¯s forfeit had given them a hint. Since they knew that they couldn¡¯t beat Fang Yuan, wouldn¡¯t it be over if they just admitted defeat right away? ¡°Student Kou Xingsheng forfeits! Student Fang Yuan wins!¡± ¡°Student Sheng Yongyan forfeits! Student Fang Yuan wins!¡± ¡°Student Bai Qianqiu forfeits! Student Fang Yuan wins!¡± There were still a few students who didn¡¯t know what was good for them and wanted to practice with Fang Yuan. All of them were sent to the rostrum hanging upside down by Fang Yuan¡¯s three consecutive strikes. ¡­ The competition continued. There were fewer and fewer students left on the field. The students from the whole school fought against each other. Only then could the winner stand in the final round. ¡°Class A Fang Yuan versus Class A Chen Ying.¡± ¡°Wow, it¡¯s senior Chen Ying. She lives up to her reputation. She¡¯s really beautiful.¡± ¡°Shut up! How dare you call the senior immortal by her name!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know why, but I¡¯m looking forward to Fang Yuan hanging her up as well. Tsk tsk tsk.¡± Chen Ying, who was standing on the stage, was about to fight Fang Yuan. She was wearing a white one-piece dress today. Standing on the golden sunlight and the green grass, she looked like a fairy. She was indeed looking forward to a proper fight with Fang Yuan, in a way that was in accordance with the school rules. However, the crux of the problem was that she was wearing a one-piece dress today. If she were to fight with other students, she did not really care. She could guarantee that she would defeat the other party within three moves. Her dress wouldn¡¯t even flutter once. However, for Fang Yuan, it would probably be difficult. Perhaps the one who lost would be herself. Chen Ying had seen Fang Yuan fight before. Whether it was yesterday or today, he didn¡¯t care about being kind to the girls. He went up and beat her violently, then hung her up. Even the students gave him a scary name: ¡°The Hanged Man.¡± After thinking about it, she decided, ¡°Referee, I forfeit.¡± ¡°Student Chen Ying forfeits, student Fang Yuan wins! Congratulations to student Fang Yuan of Class A, for successfully advancing to the final challenge!¡± The students below the stage became restless. ¡°Oh my God! Even senior Chen Ying admitted defeat?¡± ¡°This guy called Fang Yuan¡­ is simply terrifying!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a pity that we can¡¯t see the school belle being hung up. Disperse, disperse.¡± ¡­ The match had ended. There were only two students left on the stage. One of them was naturally Fang Yuan. The other was the arrogant and despotic offspring of Zhang family who had taken the initiative to attack Fang Yuan yesterday, Zhang Yu. ¡°In the last round of the competition, Class A Fang Yuan versus Class A Fang Yu!¡± Chapter 18 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhang Yu stood in front of Fang Yuan again today. It could be said that he had come prepared. Therefore, his footsteps carried a strong sense of conceit. He walked over and glanced at Fang Yuan from the corner of his eye: ¡°Yesterday, you were just lucky and caught us off guard. Don¡¯t think that you will be so lucky today. I will let you lose miserably.¡± Fang Yuan was speechless and even wanted to laugh. I alone caught the 23 of you off guard? Before he transmigrated, he also read online novels. When he saw the kind of brainless villains in online novels, he would think that the author had cerebral palsy. Until today, he finally understood that it was not the author¡¯s cerebral palsy. Art came from life, because there were really people like Zhang Yu who had cerebral palsy in life. Yesterday, when he had just entered Class A, it was this guy called Zhang Yu who took the lead and started the trouble. He even broke the school rules and summoned a pet, causing the subsequent incidents. After being beaten up to that extent, he still didn¡¯t learn a lesson. Today, he actually still had to cower ? How should he put it? Without a decade of cerebral hemorrhage, he could not have done such a thing! Fang Yuan really did not understand how such an ordinary Zhang Yu could say out confidently such a battle declaration. Who gave him the courage? He summoned the echo snail. He used the [ mind reading ] skill on Zhang Yu again. He had a rough idea. The Zhang family that Zhang Yu was from was also one of the four aristocratic families in Chuxin city. They were famous for their military achievements. The three generations before them were all in the military, especially their parents. They had risen to a considerable level in the military region. Other than that, in this generation, the person with the most hope was Zhang Yu¡¯s sister, Zhang Wanyue. Zhang Wanyue, as a woman, responded to the call and threw herself into the cause of defending the borders. In the few battles against the tide of demonized beasts, she had obtained rather eye-catching results. She was not inferior to male warriors of the same age at all, and was even stronger than them. She was addressed respectfully as the Valkyrie of the border region. One could imagine how powerful she was. In addition, she had a sufficiently substantial family background. Many people said that Zhang Wanyue¡¯s future in the military region was wiyhout limit. She might even go further than her father. And since Zhang Yu was young, the person he admired the most was his cousin, Zhang Wanyue. It was not only because his sister had extraordinary looks, but also because her strength was awe-inspiring. Zhang Yu told Zhang Wanyue about Fang Yuan beating him up yesterday, and begged her sister to think of a way to help him stand up. Although Zhang Wanyue was skeptical about what Zhang Yu had said, as usually, it was Zhang Yu who bullied others. How could he be bullied? However, looking at the bruises all over his body, it could not be faked. She was indeed very strong, but she wasn¡¯t brainless. Naturally, she wouldn¡¯t help her cousin come up with such a idea without understanding the whole story. However, since her cousin had already mentioned this matter to her, it wasn¡¯t good to do nothing. She took out the outstanding officer¡¯s reward given to her by the army. It was a pet animal accessory called the heart of the sea. This gem necklace was sea-blue in color. It was shaped like a water droplet. Not only was it beautiful, but it also had an extremely powerful effect. As long as the energy of the crystal core was sufficient, it could activate the magic circuit carved inside the gem. The magic array formed by this magic circuit was called [ firm wall ] . The effect was that it could defend against all kinds of physical attacks within a minute. On the battlefield, not to mention a minute, even a second of flash god was enough to turn the tide of the battle. Therefore, the heart of the sea was Zhang Yu¡¯s reliance. After Zhang Yu was beaten up yesterday, he found someone to conduct a detailed investigation on Fang Yuan. He discovered that although Fang Yuan had two very powerful pet beasts, they were not invulnerable. His biggest problem was that his attack methods were not diversified enough! The shadow wolf¡¯s positioning was a surprise attack. It had sharp claws, biting skills, and other skills. It could attack the opponent when the opponent was not paying attention. The iris spider king¡¯s positioning was control. It could use skills like spider silk and poisonous teeth to control the opponent first and then attack. This was the core combination skill that Fang Yuan could quickly finish off the opponent and throw him out of the window. It was very powerful, but it was not invulnerable. Be it the shadow wolf or the iris spider king, all of their skills were physical attacks. In other words, they were all within the defense range of the heart of the sea. After the heart of the sea was activated for a long minute, Zhang Yu could completely suppress Fang Yuan under the defense of the firm wall. The reason why Zhang Yu was so confident, so calm, and even so impudent. All came from this. He had already thought of how to take revenge for yesterday. ¡­ As this was the last match, the referees were cleaning up the battlefield for the award ceremony. On the stage, Fang Yuan and Zhang Yu had ample time to interact. Zhang Yu had said a lot of trash words like ¡°teach you a lesson¡±. He wanted to anger Fang Yuan in front of him so that he could attack first. However, not only was Fang Yuan not angry, he laughed instead. ¡°How can you be so sure that I want to fight with you?¡± ¡°?¡± Zhang Yu¡¯s face was full of question marks. It was obvious that his train of thought had not come to a conclusion. Fang Yuan could only patiently explain further. ¡°I mean, you saw the battle situation just now, right? The results can be divided into four categories. Three points for victory, one point for abstention, three points for failure, and one point for abstention.¡± While repeating the rules, he wrote down the scores of the two people on the ground. Fang Yuan did not lose. Most of the opponents on his side had abstained, and he was currently ranked the first in the overall score of the school. Zhang Yu had lost a few matches, but they were basically crushing victories. He was currently ranked the second in the overall score of the school, two points lower than Fang Yuan. ¡°Do you understand?¡± The numbers could not fool anyone. Zhang Yu¡¯s heart turned cold. He knew what was going on. Fang Yuan continued, ¡°I don¡¯t have to choose to fight now. If I choose to forfeit, I¡¯ll deduct one point. You can add one point, but the total score will still be one point lower than mine. In this way, the final winner will still be me. Why should I put in so much effort to fight with you?¡± ¡°You ¨C¡± Zhang Yu was so angry that he vomited blood. He had prepared for so long yesterday. He had investigated, researched, and played the victim with his sister. With great difficulty, he had managed to borrow the heart of the sea to find a way to win. Now, Fang Yuan had casually told him that he was not going to fight an more? Zhang Yu gritted his teeth in hatred. ¡°Are you f*cking telling me that you¡¯re not going to fight anymore? No, we have to fight.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. The initiative is with me now.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°If you want me to fight with you, you have to give me some benefits.¡± ¡°What benefits do you want?¡± ¡°I want to make a bet with you.¡± ¡°Okay, let¡¯s make a bet. What do you want to bet?¡± Zhang Yu was really anxious this time. He was afraid that Fang Yuan would ask the referee to abstain, so he agreed to Fang Yuan¡¯s request without hesitation. However, this just happened to fall into Fang Yuan¡¯s trap. ¡°I¡¯ll bet on the heart of the sea. If you lose, give me the heart of the sea. When we meet in the future, you¡¯ll have to call me brother-in-law.¡± Chapter 19 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Everyone in The Fisrt High School knew that Zhang Yu had a beautiful sister, Zhang Wanyue, who worked in the border region. Everyone also knew that Zhang Yu worshipped and respected his sister the most. Usually, his friends would not even dared to mention about her. Now, he had to call Fang Yuan brother-in-law? Wasn¡¯t this too much? Moreover, the heart of the sea was not an ordinary item. How could a pet accessory given out as a military merit badge be an ordinary item? This item was priceless. It was a silver high-grade accessory. The accessory itself was very rare. Moreover, it also had the special attribute of being able to defend against all physical attacks within a minute. It was indeed a dream item. Yesterday, Zhang Yu had pleaded with his sister for a very long time before his sister, Zhang Wanyue, agreed to give him the heart of the sea. Moreover, it was lent to him, so it was impossible for him to give it away. When the students next to him heard the two of them had played such a big bet, they all crowded to the side of the stage to watch. If Zhang Yu¡¯s emotions were still in his usual state, he probably would not have agreed to such a bet. However, he had been provoked by Fang Yuan just now. He was in a state of excitement. This was the enemy that he yearned to have a good fight with. If he did not agree to his bet, the other party would not fight with him! If Fang Yuan ended the fight by abstaining, Zhang Yu absolutely could not accept it. Zhang Yu gritted his teeth and nodded. ¡°Okay. I agree to your request. But if you lose, you have to¡­¡± Fang Yuan did not even hear the vicious words he had said. His goal had been achieved. ¡°Let¡¯s begin.¡± As the battle began, Fang Yuan summoned the shadow wolf and the iris spider king as usual. Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Zhang Yu¡¯s face. It was just as he had expected. Fang Yuan would still use his most accustomed three-hit combo. Thus, Zhang Yu also summoned his pet, the berserk lynx, to be on standby. The moment the referee rang the bell, Fang Yuan moved. His shadow wolf and iris spider king flanked him from both sides. It seemed that Zhang Yu had nowhere to run. It seemed that today¡¯s match was going to repeat yesterday¡¯s scene. At this moment, Zhang Yu took out his pendant. A faint blue light lit up the entire arena. It was as if the entire arena had sunk into a blue sea. In front of Zhang Yu¡¯s pet, the berserk bobcat, was an invisible wall that rippled. All the skills that were hit by ordinary physical attacks would vanish into nothingness at the first instant. The shadow wolf and the iris spider king surrounded it, but they seemed to be unable to do anything to the berserk lynx. ¡°Hahahaha, now you know how powerful it is.¡± Zhang Yu laughed maniacally on the arena. ¡°I¡¯ve already seen through your attack pattern. Your old moves have no effect in front of me.¡± ¡°Berserk Lynx! It¡¯s time for us to counterattack. Three in a row ¨C¡± He had not even finished shouting the name of the skill, an unbelievable truth appeared before his eyes. Fang Yuan raised his hand and took out the third contract gem. The Gem flashed and another pet beast appeared. Light butterfly, Light. Everyone was shocked. Today was only a few days away from contracting pet egg. In just a few days, Fang Yuan actually had three silver-quality and above pet beasts. It was simply an eye-opener. Moreover, at this age, with the spiritual power of many students, they were only able to contract one or two pet beasts. Being able to contract two was already considered quite talented, but Fang Yuan had three?! Students of the same grade: ¡°I¡¯m impressed. There are only things that we can¡¯t think of. There is nothing that my Brother Yuan can¡¯t do.¡± Junior: ¡°He is the role model of our commoners. I want to be like him and work harder. In the future, I want to shine in the grade three class.¡± Aristocratic family: ¡°This child¡¯s potential is amazing. Find out the situation in Fang Yuan¡¯s family and will give him a hand when necessary.¡± ¡°Did you see that? Did you see that? Fang Yuan, my student, he has a limitless future.¡± Gui Wentong drank some wine and was so excited that he was dancing around. He did not care that the Dean of Student Affairs was beside him, and he went up to him with his arms around his shoulders. The Dean was not angry. Although it was a headache, in general, he also liked this child, Fang Yuan. He only frowned worriedly and said, ¡°The heart of the sea can defend against all physical attacks. If Fang Yuan can¡¯t find a new way to attack, he will be very passive later on.¡± Gui Wentong seemed to have sobered up when he heard this. Indeed, the defense of the heart of the sea was there. As long as he couldn¡¯t break through the defense, Fang Yuan would be suppressed and beaten up. Summoning an additional pet beast was nothing more than an additional living target. The current situation on the field was still difficult to say. It could even be said that Fang Yuan was still in a disadvantageous position. ¡°Who said it can¡¯t be broken? Just watch.¡± A cute and lovely female voice rang in their ears. It was Peng Yimeng. She had also come to watch the battle, but compared to the nervousness of the two, she was the calmer one. Occasionally, she would cover her mouth with her hand and yawn. On the stage, Zhang Yu was still laughing impudently. As long as the ripple-shaped shield was not broken, it was equivalent to him being in a pseudo-invincible state. ¡°No matter how many pet beasts you summon, it¡¯s meaningless. Just bring them on. If I¡¯m afraid, you¡¯ll count me as a loser.¡± Fang Yuan raised his arm and gave orders to the light butterfly. The training last night was meaningful. Under the sunlight, a large amount of light was gathering towards the light butterfly. At this moment, the light was as bright as a diamond. It was sharp and had a sharp edge. If there was an indestructible spear in the world, it should look like this. ¡°Light! Use [ light edge breakthrough ] !¡± That was a skill that had been amplified by a hundred times, and its power was extraordinary. This spear made of pure light flew out at lightning speed. It passed through the body of the berserk lynx. It accurately hit the heart of the sea in Zhang Yu¡¯s chest. The crystal core embedded in the heart of the sea shattered. This move was the secret scroll [ light edge breakthrough ] that teacher Peng Yimeng had given to Fang Yuan yesterday. The effect was to ignore defensive items. It directly caused non-physical attack (light attack) penetration damage. Seeing that the heart of the sea was broken, Zhang Yu knelt heavily on the ground. His face was as dead as a log. Not only did he fail to take revenge, he also lost to Fang Yuan the heart of the sea, and even his sister who lent the heart of the sea to him. Chapter 20 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°The final winner is Class A student Fang Yuan! Congratulations to student Fang Yuan for being the champion of the simulated combat test!¡± The dean raised his hand and announced. Zhang Yu had been completely defeated at all levels. One could imagine what he would suffer when he returned, but these were not things that Fang Yuan needed to care about. The bet between the two had been witnessed by the student affairs office. The broken heart of the sea, which had been taken from Zhang Yu¡¯s neck, was handed to Fang Yuan. [ Ding. Rare-grade pet accessory detected, heart of the sea. ] [ Proceed to 100-fold enhancement? ] [ Host can choose from the following enhancement methods. ] [ First, give up the 100-fold enhancement , obtain the heart of the sea. Effect, firm wall. ] [ Consume level 3 and above crystal cores, defend against all-round physical attacks within 1 minute. ] [ Second, extend the 100-fold increase duration. Effect: absolute defense. ] [ Consume level 3 and above crystal cores. Defend against all-round physical attacks within 100 minutes. ] [ Third, increase the effect of the 100-fold increase. Effect: firm wall. ] [ Consume level 1 and above crystal cores. Defend against all-round physical attacks within 1 minute. ] One was to increase the duration, and the other was to reduce the consumption. This was an easy decision to make. Of course, it was the second choice. Within a full hundred minutes, he could max out his physical defense. He was practically a team of one person. As for the crystals consumed, although Fang Yuan did not have level 3 and above crystal cores on hand right now, but he believed that in the future, as he headed to a more powerful arcane realm, the number of high-level crystal cores he would obtain would only increase. He should look ahead. Fang Yuan received the heart of the sea, which needed to be recharged. He patted his cheap brother-in-law¡¯s shoulder affectionately. ¡°Keep up the good work, brother-in-law. Don¡¯t look so sad. We¡¯ll be a family from now on.¡± Zhang Yu glared at Fang Yuan and left resentfully. He had lost the bet. He would have a headache later, so he had no time to vent his anger on Fang Yuan. At the same time, Fang Yuan was already standing on the podium. He accepted the invitation to the pet trade fair and the permit to go to the back mountain arcane realm again. He was quite satisfied with such a harvest. He had been thinking about that mysterious giant bear pet in the back mountain arcane realm. According to his initial judgment, it must be an extraordinarily powerful pet. If he could keep it for his own use, it would bring endless benefits. Therefore, before heading to the arcane realm, Fang Yuan had to find out if this bear was a pet that humans could contract with. If it was, what kind of conditions did he have to reach in order to contract with it? Although his predecessor was very serious about learning about pet knowledge, he was after all just an ordinary high school student. He had never had the chance to come into contact with such an extraordinary pet before. He had to find a way to obtain more information. The school actually had a library. But in this era where knowledge was power, it was difficult for a student of the D class to come into contact with some core information. The library was more open to the students of Class A. This world valued scientific research. If a pet scientist who did scientific research reached a higher position, he would be able to become an expert. If he followed politics, the military, business, and even the traditional guardians of the secret realm, he would be able to sit on equal footing. For example, the Chen family of the Zhang, Wang, Li, and Chen families was a from pet scientist background. It was said that Chen Ying, the only daughter of the Chen family, had long made up her mind to follow the path of scientific research in the future. A lot of scattered information flashed through his mind. At the same time, he planned to walk forward and head towards the direction of the library. However, he realized that he did not know how to get there. He walked out of the playground. He saw his classmate, Chen Ying, standing at the door. ¡°Classmate Fang Yuan, the last match was very exciting. I look forward to meeting you at the test venue next time.¡± Chen Ying usually ranked at the top of the school grades. It was not even more than that. Before the third year of high school, she had basically always been the first in the annual exam, and had never obtained the second place. Although she was the one who had voluntarily forfeited the simulated test because of other reasons, she still clearly felt the pressure that Fang Yuan had brought to him. ¡°Student Chen Ying, is it? It just so happens that I have something to ask you.¡± Fang Yuan went over to greet her. He knew this girl. She was his classmate and was also the only classmate in the class yesterday who did not lay a hand on him because of his status as a commoner, so he knew her. Of course, her beauty was also another very important reason. With Chen Ying¡¯s looks, it was very difficult for a normal boy to ignore her. ¡°Do you know how to get to the library?¡± ¡°Yes¡­ I just happen to be going over there to obtain the access to the restricted book area on the second floor.¡± After Chen Ying¡¯s introduction, Fang Yuan learned that the school library was divided into three floors. The first floor was an open area. In theory, it could be read by all the students in the school. The second floor was a restricted book area. Even teachers who worked in the school had to pass the qualification assessment to borrow books from the restricted book area. The way to get the qualification was also through a test. However, it was a written test. What was tested was theory, not actual combat. This was very advantageous for a student like Chen Ying who came from a scientific research family. If she could pass the test today, she would become the first student in the entire school to obtain the qualification to be in the restricted book area. This was a great honor. Chen Ying brought Fang Yuan to the entrance of the library. ¡°The qualification test is about to begin. I have to go and prepare. I¡¯ll make a move first.¡± After saying that, Chen Ying waved her hand and went to the second floor to prepare for the test.. Fang Yuan continued to move forward and entered the open area on the first floor of the library. The bookshelves here were so high that they reached the ceiling. The four walls were filled with a dazzling array of books. The students did not put down the scrolls in their hands and roamed in the sea of knowledge. Facing thousands of books, Fang Yuan could not help but feel powerless. How long would it take for him to finish reading all of them. [ Ding. Host¡¯s location detected, school library. ] [ Proceed with the 100-fold increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase your reading efficiency. ] [ First, give up on the 100-fold increase. ] [ Second, increase your reading efficiency by 100-fold. ] Chapter 21 - Read Wide and Wisely Write Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Increasing reading efficiency by 100 times! This was the ability that Fang Yuan needed the most right now. As the first floor of the library was a public exhibition area, the volume of books was extremely large, and the categories involved were also extremely diverse. From pet geography, pet breeding, to pet education, pet psychology, pet pharmacology, and so on, everything was included. Fang Yuan wanted to understand the information of the mysterious bear as thoroughly as possible. He had to read thousands of books. However, the books in the library were enough for a person to read from the beginning to the end, from the cradle to the grave. He had been worrying about how to read all these books. Now, with the hundredfold increase, when he opened the book, it was like a scanner. The words printed on the paper did not need to be understood or digested. They were directly printed in Fang Yuan¡¯s brain. They could be accessed at any time. There was pleasure in reading. As the saying went, reading brought pleasure for a moment, and reading all the time brought pleasure all the time. When you read fast enough and the acquisition of knowledge was easy enough, learning was as easy as reading a web novel. Fang Yuan walked further in along the bookshelf. He only needed to use his fingers to flip through the pages. From the beginning to the end, he would completely grasp the essence of the book. He would be able to read it thoroughly. From astronomy to geography, from physiology to psychology, from the eugenics of dragons to the post-natal care of sows, he had read everything he should and shouldn¡¯t be reading. He could never have too much knowledge. Fang Yuan was using a ¡°quantum fluctuation¡± like reading method to scan the books in the library. Soon, he had read more than half of the books on the entire floor. At this speed, he estimated that he would finish reading all the books on the first floor of the library before the sun set. Before that, he wanted to find a way to go to the restricted book area. For the restricted book area to be restricted, it must be due to the more precious knowledge. He walked to the front desk. He asked the librarian at the door, ¡°May I know what kind of qualifications I need to go through to get to the restricted section on the second floor?¡± The librarian didn¡¯t even raise his head. He had noticed this young man just now. When he was reading beside the bookshelf, he became impatient and restless. Every book was casually flipped through two pages and put back on the bookshelf. What could he learn from this? The books he was reading had all kinds of subjects. They were all over the place. They were not systematic at all. They were not structured at all. How could you build a complete knowledge system like this? The librarian cursed in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He just pointed forward with his mouth. He signaled that there was an exam going on over there. Fang Yuan walked in the direction he was pointing and was quickly stopped by someone. ¡°You are the examinees who are participating in the qualification assessment today? Quickly return to your seats and sit down. The papers are about to be handed out.¡± He followed his instructions and found an empty seat to sit down. A blank paper was placed in front of him. There were probably thousands of questions densely packed on the paper. There were choices, fill-in-the-blanks, and short answers. All of the questions were about the knowledge of pets. The big ones were about the impact of the arrival of the era of all pets on the global economic integration. The small ones were the third generation descendants of the violent lynx and the curly-haired electric cat. There were a few barbs on their front paws. They had everything anyway, nothing was excluded. Fang Yuan was stunned by what he saw. However, no matter how difficult the questions were, for someone like him who had just finished reading the entire library with a hundred times the efficiency, there was no problem at all. Chen Ying, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and looked at Fang Yuan, slightly surprised. Then, she regained her composure. ¡°You came in advance to familiarize yourself with the type of questions for the qualification assessment, right? ¡°There are indeed many questions and they are very difficult. You will definitely find them troublesome the first time you come here. Later on, read more books. When you are free, you can check the information again and slowly grasp the thinking of the person who came up with the questions. It will be better.¡± She kindly shared her learning experience with Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan nodded. He raised the blank paper and studied it for a while. Then, he suddenly picked up the pen and started to write on it. He started to answer the questions! For Fang Yuan who had all the knowledge in his mind, wouldn¡¯t he be able to answer these questions with his hands? At this moment, the exam had just begun. The qualification exam was actually an open-ended exam. The number of questions on the exam paper far exceeded the amount of questions that the examinee could complete. The goal was to test the students¡¯ overall grasp of the knowledge related to pets. The time and energy of a person¡¯s life was limited. It was impossible to fully blossom in every field and master everything. However, a qualified pet researcher had to have a good trial basis and complete information retrieval ability. In other words, in scientific research, you could have things you didn¡¯t understand, but when you encountered a problem, you had to know where to find the answer. This was also the reason why the qualification exam would choose to open the paper. However ¡ª Fang Yuan was sitting in his seat, frantically writing on the paper, quickly answering the questions. He had treated the exam as a closed book! ¡°What¡­ what is he doing? Why is he writing so fast?¡± ¡°He¡¯s completely scribbling. The scope of the questions covers all subjects. At his age, how can he know everything?¡± ¡°When this child entered the door just now, I wanted to say that books aren¡¯t read like this. As the saying goes, reading a book a hundred times is self-evident. The best reading is to read it repeatedly. How can you learn anything by just looking at it?¡± ¡°I suspect that he¡¯s pretending. In order to show off his knowledge in front of girls, he wrote the entire paper. In fact, he doesn¡¯t know anything at all. He¡¯s just writing a novel on the paper for fun.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t pay any attention to the questions that were flying at him. He didn¡¯t even raise his head. He didn¡¯t hear them at all. The questions on the paper were indeed too many and too complicated. Even with his learning efficiency, it would probably take him an hour to complete them all. The second exploration of the arcane realm was right in front of him. He had to think of a way to get a pass to the restricted reading area before the library closed at five in the afternoon. The tip of the pen flew across the paper, and the elegant writing script flew across the surface of the paper. When the discussion around him reached a boiling point. Fang Yuan looked up confidently. ¡°Teacher, I have handed in my paper.¡± Chapter 22 - Passed with Full Mark, Permission Granted Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He¡­ had handed in his paper? What a joke, the exam was not even started yet. The qualification examination for the restricted book area would only start after the public area on the first floor of the library was closed. In the previous hour, everyone would usually choose to examine the questions first. After the library on the first floor was closed, the examinees would go to the bookshelves and search for information on the questions they were not familiar with. After that, they would return to complete the questions in the exam paper. This was why Fang Yuan found the questions in the exam paper to be unexpectedly numerous and complicated. Because the exam duration lasted an entire night! But Fang Yuan was better. He sat on his seat and answered the questions right at the beginning of the exam. He did not even look up the information, and the answers were written very quickly. Even Chen Ying, who had just seen Fang Yuan¡¯s performance in the competition, could not help but frown. Although she respected Fang Yuan, but objectively speaking, Fang Yuan was, after all, from the bottom. It was through the pet battle, step by step, that he slowly climbed from Class D to Class A. Unlike other students, who had learned a lot of common knowledge about pets in advance. This was just like many children from noble schools, who started learning foreign languages from kindergarten, while ordinary people might only start learning from junior high and high school. They had more than ten years of foundation, how could you catch up in a day and a night? Today¡¯s written test was by the same logic. Chen Ying was born in a scientific research family and loved to read since she was young. She was also the type who read a lot. Only then did she have the confidence to sit in this place and take the exam.. But even if it was her, she did not have the confidence to say that she was done and completed all the questions within an hour. Chen Ying did not say anything. She just looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief. The other onlookers had already started whispering to each other. ¡°Isn¡¯t Fang Yuan being a little too arrogant? This paper is not like a fight. It¡¯s not like whoever has the bigger fist has the final say.¡± ¡°Maybe he just scribbled on the paper, and when he found that it didn¡¯t make any sense, he quickly took the opportunity to submit the paper in advance and run away.¡± ¡°Whether you believe it or not, I don¡¯t believe that there is genius in this world. If Fang Yuan can pass the exam like this, I¡¯ll eat this book on the spot.¡± Everyone in the world, when encountering something that did not make sense, their first reaction would definitely be suspicion. ¡°What¡¯s the noise about?¡± From the library¡¯s office, an old man in a long robe walked out. He was dressed in a black robe with a silver lining. This was the director of the library, Lin Bai. He was also the question setter and the examiner for the exam. The librarian on duty immediately stepped forward and said, ¡°Director Lin, the exam time hasn¡¯t even passed an hour yet, and a student in the exam hall says he wants to hand in his paper early. This is really against the rules! It¡¯s a complete waste of your hard work preparing the questions!¡± The librarian had been watching Fang Yuan reading on the bookshelf just now, and he felt that he couldn¡¯t stand it. Now that Director Lin had appeared, he naturally wanted to add fuel to the fire. ¡°Do we allow handing in exam papers in advance?¡± ¡°Well¡­ we do.¡± ¡°Then it¡¯s not against the rules.¡± ¡°But the questions were designed by you after several months of planning. How can it be ruined like this?¡± ¡°The exam papers are designed for people.¡± Director Lin Bai looked in Fang Yuan¡¯s direction. ¡°As for how it was done, we¡¯ll have to take a look to find out.¡± The director walked over and took the paper. Although the exam paper was densely written, Fang Yuan¡¯s handwriting was neat and easy to read. Lin Bai nodded slightly as he was reading the exam paper. He took out his gold-rimmed glasses and went through the short answers. An old face that had always been as cold as a glacier suddenly smiled, as if a spring breeze was blowing on his face: ¡°Wonderful, wonderful¡­ It¡¯s so wonderful!¡± Lin Bai looked at one of the fill-in-the-blank questions, ¡°The forty-two subspecies of the light butterfly are the results of the research published by my friend, Dr. Fu Cauna, after more than 30 years of field research. They were only mentioned in the book ¡®Butterfly-Type Pet and Its Mutation Characteristics¡¯, and this book has been out of print for more than ten years. It seems that you have read the book very carefully. It¡¯s not easy at such a young age. It¡¯s not easy at all.¡± ¡°And here,¡± Lin Bai pointed to a short-answer question on the paper, ¡°in conventional pharmaceutics, the preparation method of antidotes, in addition to the traditional sixteen basic preparation methods, you can actually write out the seventeenth method. It¡¯s really surprising.¡± ¡°What? The seventeenth preparation method?¡± The crowd was in an uproar. The sixteen preparation methods of antidotes were common knowledge that was rooted in the bottom of everyone¡¯s hearts. When did the seventeenth one appear? One had to know that the more basic the medicine was, the more in-depth everyone¡¯s research would be. After the arrival of the era of pet beasts, almost all the plants in the world that could be used to make antidotes had been tried. Why did the seventeenth type suddenly appear? The librarian¡¯s face was flushed red as he said, ¡°I¡¯m afraid that this kid is spouting nonsense and grandstanding¡­¡± ¡°I think you¡¯re the one grandstanding!¡± Lin Bai glared at him fiercely. ¡°Didn¡¯t you guys see the latest paper published by Professor Yu Zhen in the ¡®New Wave of Pet Beasts¡¯ the day before yesterday? The method to make the seventeenth type of antidotes had already been developed. It¡¯s just that it¡¯s still under clinical safety testing and hasn¡¯t been released to the public yet. It doesn¡¯t matter if other people don¡¯t know, but you¡¯re in the industry and can¡¯t even receive first-line information in time. Don¡¯t you feel ashamed? You guys aren¡¯t as sensitive to changes in the academic world as a young man who¡¯s still in school.¡± He had just casually glanced at a few questions. Now, Lin Bai found a chair to sit down and began to read the paper. The red symbol indicated that it was correct, and it kept appearing in the paper. ¡°He actually¡­ answered all of them, and all of them were correct?¡± ¡°Doesn¡¯t Fang Yuan usually not read books? He even asked someone for the way to the library just now!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t understand this. The top students say that they don¡¯t study, but in reality, they are all secretly hiding in the dark and studying all night. Unlike you guys, who say that you study, but in reality, you guys cover yourselves in the blankets and sleep!¡± Lin Bai took off his glasses and put down the test paper. ¡°Student Fang Yuan passed with full marks. Today, we will give him the permission to go to the restricted book area.¡± The librarian was hesitating, ¡°But¡­ director, Fang Yuan did not pass the normal registration process to participate in the qualification assessment. There has never been such a precedent before.¡± ¡°If there is no precedent, then this precedent will be set now.¡± Lin Bai said determinedly, ¡°A good academic seedling like Fang Yuan must be given the best teaching resources.¡± Chapter 23 - The Last Ingredient of the Evolution Mixture Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Isn¡¯t this too lucky? Just got here today and already got the qualification to enter the forbidden area. I¡¯ve taken the exam for three years.¡± ¡°What lucky? He¡¯s just strong, okay?¡±. What did the principal say? There¡¯s no such thing as a genius. He¡¯s just using other people¡¯s coffee time to study. Student Fang Yuan must have put in a lot of effort behind the scenes.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be envious of him. The exam is about to begin. Everyone, let¡¯s work hard.¡± Under the envious gazes of the group of people behind him, Director Lin Bai personally sent Fang Yuan to the restricted reading area on the second floor. As he walked up the stairs, he was talking to him amiably. Compared to the space on the first floor, the restricted reading area was much more spacious. There was a faint, strange fragrance coming out from it. Fang Yuan had only taken a few steps when he saw an old man with white hair and beard mixing some medicine in front of the experiment table. The strange fragrance probably came from there. Fang Yuan never had the habit of meddling in other people¡¯s business. However, when Fang Yuan was looking at the white-bearded old man, the white-bearded old man happened to see him. ¡°Aiya, Aiya, young man, you¡¯re just in time. How old Are you this year?¡± Although it was a little strange to be suddenly asked about his age, Fang Yuan still told the truth. ¡°Sixteen.¡± ¡°Sixteen, just in time. You¡¯re still a virgin, right?¡± Fang Yuan:¡±? ? ?¡± ¡°Judging from your this expression, it should be. Come, come, come. Do old man a favor. Can you go to the bathroom and take a leak?¡± With this question, Fang Yuan roughly knew what was going on. Director Lin Bai had warned him just now that he might meet a weird old man in the forbidden area. This weird old man was Zhao Ren, the permanent director of the Alchemist Association¡¯s Pharmacy Branch. He was also one of the important candidates for the chairman of the pharmacy branch. He had been having a headache refining the universal pet evolution mixture. With Zhao Ren¡¯s qualifications, if he wanted to continue to advance in the association, he had to develop enough breakthrough drugs. He had studied this evolution mixture for decades. It was not because Zhao Ren was stupid. On the contrary, he was a genius. As early as the age of 24, he had already completed the fusion of more than 20 basic drugs. Basically, everything was ready, but the only thing missing was the last ingredient. It was this ingredient that Zhao Ren spent the rest of his life searching for. First, he searched all over the world for pet medicinal herbs that could be used as ingredient, and tried all the doses. It was useless. After a few years, he even tried the ingredients that he normally wouldn¡¯t use. Peppers, onions, garlic, and so on. There was nothing which you could imagine that Zhao Ren hadn¡¯t tried. To this day, he even began to choose some strange things. For example, he had tested the feces of pets, and even human feces. No, it just didn¡¯t work. Zhao Ren did this every day, day and night. In the laboratory on the second floor of the forbidden book area, he repeatedly did the experiments that he had started doing since he was in his twenties. Some people said that he had been completely obsessed. Some people said that his mentality had completely collapsed. The story of a genius turning into a loser because he went through a difficult time. He had always attracted people¡¯s attention, and it was widely spread. However, Zhao Ren had never doubted his direction for a moment, nor did he have the slightest intention of giving up. It was because this was not only his own wish, but also the wish of the ancestors of the Zhao family. The Zhao family was once one of the guardian of the arcane realm. And this recipe for the evolution mixture was copied down by the Zhao family¡¯s ancestors from the obelisk in the arcane realm. It recorded in detail the evolution of the pet beast and how terrifying its strength could be. Unfortunately, this arcane realm obelisk was destroyed during the war. Even the rubbings were lost when time passed by. Now, there was only a fragment left, which was mounted on the wall of the forbidden book area by Zhao Ren as a treasure. He spent decades and was barely managed to recover more than 20 kinds of raw materials, which was his limit. However, he really couldn¡¯t find the last ingredient. ¡°I heard that virgin boy¡¯s urine has the innate masculine energy. Maybe it can contribute to the preparation of the evolution mixture.¡± Perhaps he had been played by science for too long, Zhao Ren started to believe in folk remedies. Fang Yuan naturally did not care. He just stood in the corridor and looked at the copy on the wall. [ Ding. Copy No. 36 obelisk detected. Evolution mixture. ] [ Proceed to 100-fold enhancement? ] [ Host can choose from the following enhancement methods. ] [ First, give up the enhancement and obtain the recipe for the evolution mix (1%). ] [ Second, obtain a 100-fold enhancement and obtain the recipe for the evolution mix (100%)! ] He had never thought that his 100-fold enhancement system could be used in this way. Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes could not help but light up. Choose the second option! Very quickly, the evolution mix recipe that recorded the detailed preparation method was clearly displayed in front of him. There were indeed more than 20 types of raw materials. The specific dosage, ratio, and order of addition were all recorded in great detail on it. And outside of these conventional medicinal materials, Fang Yuan found a portrait. That was the most important medicinal catalyst needed to prepare the evolution mix. ¡°Keratin crystals of the Titan bear, 100 grams.¡± Chapter 24 - Bow When Seeing the Truth Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Keratin crystal of the Titan bear, 100 grams.¡± After being enhanced by Fang Yuan¡¯s system by a hundredfold, this was what was written on the evolution mixture prescription. The name of the Titan bear immediately attracted Fang Yuan¡¯s attention. He carefully read the description of the Titan bear on the prescription. ¡°A bear-type pet beast. It is huge in size and sleeps all year round, so much so that it would be mistaken for a mountain range. As it always lies on its back without moving, animals and plants will choose to build a home on its stomach. As time goes by, all kinds of trees even grow on it.¡± It was really worthy of being a prescription that had been enhanced by a hundred times. It explained everything in great detail. There was even a black and white picture beside the description. After looking at the picture, Fang Yuan was even more certain. This titan bear was the giant pet that he had used the contract gem in the secret realm of the back mountain but had not successfully contracted. However, other than the basic information, the prescription did not provide any further instructions on how to contract the Titan bear. It seemed that he still needed to continue searching for information. ¡°How are you, young man? Have you thought about it? Perhaps your virgin urine will make a huge contribution to the entire human race.¡± Zhao Ren seemed to be absent-minded as he joked with Fang Yuan. He continued to mix the evolution mixture in his hands with the raw materials on the table. Suddenly, there was a loud bang. Perhaps it was due to the reaction of the raw materials that had caused a small explosion. He did not care about such a failure. After all, he had already spent thirty years of his youth on the preparation of the evolution mixture. He did not know whether or not he would be able to see the success of the mixture before he left the world. ¡°Your method was wrong. It was wrong from the very beginning.¡± Fang Yuan turned around and looked at Zhao Ren, whose face was blackened by the explosion. ¡°Ha ha ha ha!¡± Zhao Ren laughed instead of getting angry. This young kid probably had not even graduated from high school. He did not even have any clinical experience in pharmaceutics. The first thing he said was that your method was wrong. What could be more ridiculous than this? ¡°You don¡¯t say!¡± The director of the library, Lin Bai, who was just about to go downstairs to supervise the exam, immediately ran back when he heard the conversation which seemed to be an argument. He stopped Fang Yuan with a stern voice. Then he turned to Zhao Ren, who had a dark face, bowed slightly and said respectfully, ¡°Senior Zhao, please ignore him. Fang Yuan is still a child. He has indeed read many books, and his understanding of pharmaceutics is quite good. However, he may still have the arrogance of a young man. It¡¯s inevitable. Would appreciate your understanding.¡± Zhao Ren waved his hand to indicate that it was fine. Only then did Lin Bai let out a long sigh and was relieved. He turned his head to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, didn¡¯t I tell you? This is Senior Zhao from the pharmacy branch. The medicines that he has prescribed in his life are more than the medicines that you have seen. Even the textbook of our school¡¯s pet pharmacy was compiled by Senior Zhao.¡± ¡°A mistake is still a mistake.¡± Fang Yuan was not intimidated by the long list of titles introduced by Lin Bai. He said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, ¡°In the field of science, there is no seniority, only truth. No matter how senior you are, when you see the truth, you should immediately bow your head.¡± ¡°You ¨C¡± Lin Bai pointed at Fang Yuan, unable to speak for a long time. On the contrary, Zhao Ren smiled slightly. ¡°Young man, your pretty words are quite good, but do you really know about pharmacokinetics? Let me remind you that the knowledge in the books is completely different from practice. Do you know how to prepare more than ten kinds of composite medicine? How to control the stability of the medicine and ensure its efficacy? Don¡¯t take things too simple.¡± ¡°50 grams of codonopsis pilosula extract, 50 grams of astragalus extract, 50 grams of wolfberry extract, mixed into turbid fluid, then add rehmannia, dogwood, yams, alisma, peony skin, Poria Cocos¡­ after another round of mixing, add the last medicine, this medicine is ¨C¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t answer Zhao Ren¡¯s question directly, but just casually reported a series of names, sequence, and grammage of the medicine. These were all written in detail in the evolution mixture prescription. Zhao Ren¡¯s expression was still calm at first, but the more Fang Yuan read, the more solemn his expression became. He soon discovered. The long list of the prescriptions that Fang Yuan reported was none other than the half-finished evolution medicine prescription that he had painstakingly developed. Director Lin Bai, who was standing beside him, was dumbfounded when he heard that. Was Fang Yuan giving out his own prescriptions in front of the professor who knew pharmaceutics the best in all of Chuxin City? What kind of self-overestimating behavior was this! ¡°I say, Fang Yuan¡­ Student Fang Yuan, don¡¯t embarrass yourself in front of Senior Zhao.¡± Although Director Lin Bai knew that it was very impolite to interrupt others, he still liked Fang Yuan very much. He had so much potential at such a young age, so he would definitely have a bright academic future in the future. He must not offend the academic bigwigs because of what happened today. This was really not worth it. Lin Bai was an excellent teacher. He cared for Fang Yuan in his heart, so he couldn¡¯t help but remind him. ¡°Shut up! Let him finish!¡± Zhao Ren was so agitated that he almost jumped out from behind the experiment table. He shouted at Lin Bai, who was completely confused by the situation. Then, he walked up to Fang Yuan and grabbed his collar with both hands, ¡°Tell me, tell me quickly. How did you know? What was the last medicine?!¡± Chapter 25 - Method to Contract the Titan Bear Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Ren was naturally so excited that he couldn¡¯t control himself. Such a young lad had completely grasped the progress of his research on the evolution drug. These formulas were only known to Zhao Ren himself in the world. He didn¡¯t tell anyone. He was only thinking of developing the evolution drug by himself one day and shocking the whole world. However, this third-year high school student named Fang Yuan actually deduced all the formulas with his own ability. It was without a single mistake. From his confident expression, it was very likely that he knew what the final formula of the drug was! The answer that he had been searching for for thirty years was going to be revealed today. How could he not be happy? How could he not be excited? ¡°You¡­ how do you know all these?¡± ¡°An old recipe passed down from my family.¡± Fang Yuan made up a reason, but this reason was the easiest reason to convince Zhao Ren. It was because his prescription was left behind by his family¡¯s ancestors. It just so happened that the last medicine was missing, but was it possible that Fang Yuan¡¯s family also had the rubbing of number 42 obelisk? Could their family have a more complete rubbing? Thinking about it, it seemed that everything had been cleared. Why could this child pass the qualification assessment at such a young age? Why did he have such a deep understanding of pharmaceutics? It must be related to the origin of this inheritance! Zhao Ren¡¯s breathing became heavier and faster. He exerted more force on his hands, and his eyes were bloodshot. He almost lifted Fang Yuan up from the ground: ¡°Tell me! What is the last medicine?¡± ¡°Do you think this is the way to ask someone for help?¡± Fang Yuan did not respond. He only said this coldly. Zhao Ren immediately realized his current state. His face was flushed red as he grabbed Fang Yuan¡¯s collar, and as if he was interrogating him. ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Fang.¡± Zhao Ren immediately chose to apologize. He even changed the way the senior addressed the junior. Addressing him as Mr. Fang was to addressing him as an equal. The surging passion in his heart could not be suppressed. He bowed deeply in Fang Yuan¡¯s direction. ¡°Please enlighten me, Mr. Fang.¡± Lin Bai was so shocked that he could not speak. He had seen with his own eyes that in the field of pet pharmaceutics, an academic giant who could be called the founder bowed to a student who had not graduated from the third year of high school. He had even said ¡°please enlighten me¡±. Lin Bai¡¯s worldview had been overturned. ¡°But why should I teach you? Is there any benefit for me?¡± Fang Yuan said so, but in actual fact he already had plan in his heart. The last medicine of the pet evolution mixture formula could only be obtained from the Titan bear. And the Titan bear was the pet that he had long wanted to make a contract with. Zhao Ren had been immersed in the academic world for decades. He was known as the ¡°walking bookcase with two legs.¡± It was not an exaggeration to say that he knew both astronomy and geography. After Fang Yuan finished reading the entire library in the open area, he could not find any information related to the Titan bear. Although he could use the 100-fold enhancement to study more information. It was impossible for him to read all the books in the world in a short time. However, it was very likely that Zhao Ren had some understanding. It was because he had a deep understanding of pharmaceutics, in order to use medicine on pets, he had to understand all aspects of the pets¡¯ habits. Now, Fang Yuan knew the prescription. The other party might know the contract method of the Titan Bear. After Fang Yuan contracted the Titan Bear, he could totally provide Zhao Ren with this medicinal herb. In a word, their interests were closely related or even could be said that they were unanimous. ¡°Mr. Fang, I can give you anything you want.¡± Even though Zhao Ren said this very sincerely, he felt a little guilty. This was because he looked back at most of his failed life, he had no wife, no children, and no house. He lived in the forbidden book area on the second floor. He had some money, but it was used up because he needed to buy many expensive herbs to develop the evolution mixture. He was focused on scientific research. He didn¡¯t care much about breeding and fighting pets. They were just the most common quality, the most common grade. In short, although he said that he could give you whatever you wanted which he did think so in his heart, but in reality, other than his influence in the academic world and the so-called honorary professor title of the Pharmacy Branch, Zhao Ren had nothing else to offer Fang Yuan. He really had nothing to offer Fang Yuan. Zhao Ren felt a chill in his heart. This was a chance that he had finally found. Was he going to miss it just like that? ¡°Of course, I still have to say it in advance. If you want money or something, I might not be able to satisfy you¡­¡± Fang Yuan did not wait for Zhao Ren to finish. He went straight to the point: ¡°Tell me first. What do you know about pet beasts like the ¡®Titan Bear¡¯?¡± ¡°The Titan Bear¡­ The Titan Bear?¡± Zhao Ren thought for a moment. This was really what he was good at. His doctoral thesis was a summary of the habits of rare pet beasts. Among them was the Titan Bear. Fang Yuan only asked questions and did not promise Zhao Ren that he would tell him the formula of the last medicine. However, Zhao Ren was not guarded at all. He told him everything he knew. ¡°According to historical records, the obelisk once recorded that there were many rare pets in the world that were difficult to contract.¡± ¡°The Titan Bear was one of them.¡± ¡°It was because its size was too big, and it was difficult to form a contract with the contract gem. However, there was once a human ancestor who achieved this seemingly impossible challenge. According to the diary he left behind, all pet beasts have their favorite things.¡± ¡°As long as the trainer can satisfy the pet beast¡¯s wishes, the pet beast¡¯s favorability will increase. When the favorability reaches a certain level, the pet beast may take the initiative to form a contract with the human.¡± ¡°At that time, when this ancestor contracted the Titan Bear, he used the Titan Bear¡¯s favorite food ¨C¡± ¡°Monkey Honey.¡± Chapter 26 ¡°Monkey honey?¡± Fang Yuan had read so many books downstairs, but he had never heard of the existence of this kind of food. Zhao Ren nodded and said, ¡°All bear pets are extremely fond of sweet food. Honey is their favorite food. There is no other food they like better. If you observe in the wild forest, you will find that in order to eat a mouthful of honey, brown bears would be willing to be stung by bees from head to toe. They like honey to this extent. Although the Titan bears are powerful, their food preferences has no exception.¡± ¡°Monkey honey is a type of honey that only long-armed spiritual monkey pets can get. After more than ten years of brewing and nourishing, the flavor is naturally more delicious than other honey. It is also the food that is the easiest to increase the intimacy between the Titan bear and the trainer.¡± Just as he promised earlier, Zhao Ren really told Fang Yuan everything he knew. He continued, ¡°According to the observation of the pet zoologist, the Titan bear will fall into a long hibernation state almost three seasons a year. Before hibernation, it will collect any honey that it can find and smear the honey on the palms of its hands. When it wakes up from its deep sleep and becomes a little more conscious, it will stick out its tongue and licks it for a while before falling into a deep sleep. However, the problem is Titan bears usually sleep for too long. Even if their hands and feet are covered with honey, it is not enough. They are quiet by nature and do not like to exercise, and they like to be readily fed. Getting up to search for food is the thing that the Titan bear is most reluctant to do. If a trainer can bring enough monkey honey and smear it on its palm when it wakes up from hibernation, it will greatly increase the Titan bear¡¯s good impression of the trainer. The Titan bear will believe that you are a human who has the ability to satisfy its voracious appetite. If you try to make a contract at this time, It is very likely that it will be willing to let you be its master.¡± After listening to Zhao Ren¡¯s explanation, Fang Yuan could not help but laugh. It seemed that although the Titan bear was extremely powerful, its habits were indeed charmingly adorable. It liked sweet food and licked honey on its hands. In order to find a permanent meal card, it did not hesitate to become a human pet beast. It was very cute. ¡­ There were many ways to obtain knowledge. One could choose to read ten thousand books, or one could choose to consult someone who had read ten thousand books. Fang Yuan chose the latter this time. And he had benefited greatly. If not for Zhao Ren¡¯s detailed explanation, Fang Yuan would not have known where he would have gone if he had chosen to collect all this knowledge on his own. Zhao Ren¡¯s sincerity had helped him in the end. ¡°Thank you, Senior Zhao. I will tell you what the last medicine is. Please come close to my ear.¡± Fang Yuan nodded his head in gratitude and decided to tell him the truth that Zhao Ren had explored for most of his life. As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Ren immediately moved his ear to his side. ¡°The last medicine is: the keratin crystal of the Titan bear.¡± ¡°!!!¡± After listening, Zhao Ren took a deep breath. With his knowledge of pharmaceutics, he immediately understood the pharmacology. The Titan Bear was the supreme of the earth element, and the keratin was a crystal formed from the tears that the bear¡¯s eyes secreted when it was hibernating. This crystal was finely ground. Then it was added to the evolution mixture that had already taken shape. As a stabilizer, wouldn¡¯t the final product be ready?! And he had actually found so many raw materials before. He had not expected it. And today, when he was introducing the habits of the Titan bear to Fang Yuan, he was reminded by such a third-year high school student. It was truly a case of searching for it in vain, obtaining it without any effort at all. On the other hand, he had a deep respect for Fang Yuan¡¯s pharmaceutical potential. This child really gave him a formidable feeling as a junior. Not only did he have a deep theoretical foundation, it could be seen that he also had quite an outstanding practical ability. He even had a very strong teaching talent. Zhao Ren fell into deep thought: When Fang Yuan introduced this last medicine, he didn¡¯t directly tell me the final answer. Instead, he used the method of continuous questioning, patiently guiding me to come to a conclusion on my own. Who knows, his pharmaceutical strength might even be above mine. ¡­ After some thought, Zhao Ren once again refreshed his understanding of Fang Yuan, this young man, and his evaluation of him rose to a higher level. From being an elder, he had originally thought highly of the younger generation¡¯s development potential. Now, it was a matter of being considered as peers, and even as a teacher and a friend. Seeing that Zhao Ren was in deep thought for a long time, he didn¡¯t say a single word. Beside him, the curator Lin Bai smelled a trace of something amiss in the air, thinking that the last medicine Fang Yuan had revealed wasn¡¯t correct. ¡°Well, Senior Zhao, although Fang Yuan is very talented, he is still very young. Perhaps there is something immature in his thinking. Senior Zhao, please forgive him. Please ignore him. Ha ha ha ha!¡± After saying that, Lin Bai laughed dryly. If they were to really talk about seniority, Zhao Ren¡¯s position in pharmaceutics was equivalent to that of Lin Bai¡¯s master uncle. Lin Bai treated Fang Yuan as if he was his own disciple. Naturally, he didn¡¯t want Fang Yuan to leave a bad impression to the senior the moment he showed up, so he kept looking for ways to make up for it. ¡°Who said that?¡± Zhao Ren frowned and glared at Lin Bai before looking at Fang Yuan with a smile. His eyes were filled with respect, admiration, and worship. ¡°Listening to your words is really better than studying for ten years. Lin Bai, if you have any questions in the future, you still need to consult Senior Fang Yuan more!¡± Lin Bai:¡±???¡± This was ridiculous. Lin Bai was dumbfounded. Just a moment ago, master uncle Zhao was still calling him a young man, but now he actually treated Fang Yuan as a senior? Chapter 27 After further communication, Fang Yuan told Zhao Ren that he would think of a way to get the keratin crystals of the Titan bear. As for how he met the Titan bear in the arcane realm of the back mountain, and how he failed to make a contract with it for the first time, he did not mention any of these things. He only promised that he could provide this material regularly for him to formulate the evolution medicine. After all, even if he already knew the formula, formulating the medicine was not something that could be done in one go. It needed to be polished and refined many times until the effects of the evolution medicine could be fully exerted. Zhao Ren said that at the upcoming pet beast trade fair in Chuxin City, it was a good opportunity for Fang Yuan to get the monkey honey. There would be all kinds of rare and exotic beasts, precious medicinal herbs, exquisite jewelry, expensive collectibles, and luxury goods. Maybe someone would trade monkey honey there, and he was willing to go bankrupt to support Fang Yuan¡¯s purchase. He also promised Fang Yuan that once the evolution medicine was successfully formulated, the first bottle would be given to Fang Yuan. In the future, if he still needed it, he could take as much as he wanted. All of it would be provided free of charge. ¡­ Under Zhao Ren¡¯s gratitude and Lin Bai¡¯s dumbfounded eyes, Fang Yuan left the library. Waving goodbye to the examinees who were still intense and nervous sitting for the exam, he prepared to head to the pet trade fair. The pet trade fair was held at the largest sports ground in Chuxin City, the Chuxin Sports Ground. On the day he headed to the sports ground, he once again met the two young masters from Class A, Li Yizheng and Wang Zijun. Li Yizheng took the lead to wave his hand and came over to greet them. ¡°Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan! Here, here! I knew you would come today, but I couldn¡¯t find you anywhere.¡± After the two previous battles, this young master of the Li family finally understood the difference between him and Fang Yuan. The difference was like heaven and earth. Although Fang Yuan was born in a commoner¡¯s family, and he was at a disadvantage compared to them, Li Yi Zheng did not dare to underestimate Fang Yuan¡¯s potential. Not to mention provoking him, which would be allowing slapping on his face. He would be asking for humiliation! Li Yi Zheng was born in a merchant¡¯s family, so he knew the principle of ¡°If you can¡¯t beat him, then join him¡±. Now, he was sincerely treated Fang Yuan as a brother. He kept calling him Brother Yuan affectionately. Fang Yuan said calmly, ¡°You guys are here, too.¡± Li Yizheng said, ¡°The pet trade fair has sent out invitations to our families. We are here to see the world because of our parents. Unlike you, Brother Yuan, who relied on your real abilities¡­¡± ¡°I admit that I did ask my family to bring me here to take a look,¡± Wang Zijun said, ¡°because you, Fang Yuan, are a rather challenging opponent. I definitely can not fall behind you by too much! I will definitely defeat you the next time!¡± As expected, the ruthless words that he had let go previously was still engraved deeply in the mind of this young master of the Wang family. He wanted to treat Fang Yuan as his lifelong enemy. Fang Yuan did not care. He looked around and suddenly asked, ¡°Speaking of which, where is my cheap brother-in-law?¡± ¡°Hahahaha.¡± Li Yizheng laughed loudly. Wang Zijun could not help but laugh, too. Then Li Yizheng shouted into the distance, ¡°Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Your brother-in-law is looking for you!¡± Zhang Yu ran out from the crowd in a panic. He covered Li Yizheng¡¯s mouth. ¡°Lower your voice, lower your voice. My family is here today, and my sister is back from the garrison. Don¡¯t f*cking shout.¡± Li Yizheng struggled out with a laugh and knocked on Zhang Yu¡¯s shoulder. ¡°So, I heard that your family gave you 600,000 trading coins?¡± Trading coins were the common currency in the pet trade fair. Any transaction must be conducted through trading coins. The value was equivalent to the value of the outside currency. However, the difference was that trading coins could only be used in the trade fair. They were no longer effective after leaving the pet trade fair. Just like when entering a casino, one needed to exchange cash for chips. It was the same principle. Zhang Yu scratched his head and said, ¡°Uh¡­ that¡¯s true¡­ wait, what are you guys trying to do?¡± Li Yizheng said, ¡°We¡¯re all brothers. Let¡¯s take out the trading coins and use them together. It¡¯s not easy for us to have money now. It would be great if we could go to the trade fair together.¡± Zhang Yu said, ¡°Why? That¡¯s mine! Even if we¡¯re biological brothers, we still have to settle the score openly ¨C¡± Li Yizheng turned to look at Fang Yuan. He interrupted Zhang Yu¡¯s complaint. ¡°Brother Yuan, where¡¯s our sister-in-law? Since your brother-in-law isn¡¯t willing to bring everyone to the trade fair, then let¡¯s go find sister-in-law to bring us around.¡± ¡°¡­¡± In an instant, Zhang Yu¡¯s expression obviously changed. ¡°I¡¯ll go! I¡¯ll go! Let¡¯s go, this way!¡± About Zhang Yu¡¯s failure in the bet, naturally the matter of him losing the heart of the sea and his sister¡¯s reputation to Fang Yuan had not been heard by Zhang Yu¡¯s sister, Zhang Wanyue. He had not told her family either. Now that Li Yi was about to reveal about Zhang Yu¡¯s bet, Zhang Yu quickly changed the topic and led everyone to the inner part of the fair. The pet trade fair had a long history. It was held in different towns every year. This year, it was held in Chuxin City. The rules in all aspects were the same as in previous years. The trade fair was divided into three different venues. They were the rare-grade, the collection-grade, and the luxury-grade. As the name implied, they corresponded to different trading items of different values. The rare-grade venue corresponded to goods worth 500,000 trading coins to 5,000,000 trading coins. The collection-grade venue corresponded to goods worth 5,000,000 trading coins to goods worth 50,000,000 trading coins. The highest grade of luxury goods corresponded to goods worth more than fifty million trading coins. The value of goods was not capped. For example, the highest single transaction in history had reached an astonishing three hundred million. These young masters were born into the nobility. When they talked about the history of the industry, they naturally spoke with confidence. They introduced some knowledge of the trade fair to Fang Yuan. They walked to the rare-grade venue. With only 600,000 trading coins in their hands, they could only go to this venue. Chapter 28 Pet trade fair, at the rare-grade venue. This venue was located in the East Hall of the stadium. The East Hall was the smallest of the three halls in Chuxin Stadium. Considering its lowest entry fee, it seemed especially cramped. Walking into it, it was bustling with activities. Different shops were divided into small cubicles with hard plastic sheets. It was like one office after another. The things sold in each cubicle were different. Although Fang Yuan was relatively calm and mature compared to his peers, he was still a sixteen-year-old child. Seeing this scene was full of magic. It was like Harry Potter coming to Diagon Alley for the first time. He felt that everything was new. It was exciting. The three students next to him were no exception. They looked around the cubicle. Some shops were selling well-made pet animal feed with different flavors for the expensive pets with different tastes. There were chocolate flavor, strawberry flavor, yogurt flavor, and even soft mud flavor. Some shops were selling cauldrons and stirring rods to refine various kinds of basic medicine. The quality was also classified into black iron, bronze, silver, and so on. However, even the cheapest black iron was ridiculously expensive. No wonder everyone said that pharmacists were superior. Some shops were selling pet accessories and other related products. Sleeping bell which enabled pet to sleep well, thus increasing the attributes of the pet by 5% for the whole day the next day. Insect-proof collar, in the middle of summer, could protect your pet from mosquito and insect attack. Your mood would be increased by 10 points. Stinky-free pet house, were you tired of being a poop-scooper for your pet? My brand of stinky-free pet house would ensure that you didn¡¯t have to worry about your family¡¯s health. As for the more advanced skill scrolls and contract gems, even pets with considerable potential, would not be traded in the rare-grade venue. They had to go to the collection grade or even the higher luxury grade venue. As the three young masters only had 600,000 trading coins, their visits could only stop there. On the contrary, Fang Yuan had a school-certified pass for the entire trade fair. He could freely visit the three venues. Li Yizheng said ¡°I envy Brother Yuan! We¡¯ll wait for you here. If there¡¯s anything interesting in the other two venues, remember to share it with us!¡± Wang Zijun said, ¡°Sigh, looks like I¡¯m still a distance away from you after all, Student Fang Yuan. I¡¯ll catch up with you!¡± Zhang Yu said, ¡°Fang Yuan! Don¡¯t call me brother-in-law in the future. My sister is here.¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan didn¡¯t say anything. He waved goodbye to everyone and continued to move forward alone. Anyway, no matter what items sold in whichever venue, he couldn¡¯t afford it. He might as well go around everywhere. He first arrived at the collection-level venue. It was the second largest venue in the stadium, the West Hall. He had just pushed open the door and entered. He could clearly feel that the layout here was a level higher than the rare-quality area. First of all, from the layout, each shop had its own obvious signboard. The shops were not adjacent to each other. They divided the area into sections and each had their own camp. The items sold were less fancy than the ones just now, but they were obviously more expensive. In the center of the venue, there was a information publishing center. Only after going there to understand the situation did they find out. Here, they could release the purchase and promotion information of the buyers and sellers for free. Fang Yuan first went over to release the monkey honey¡¯s registration information. This information would be synchronized to all the shops in the venue within thirty minutes. He would first see if there was anything for sale. The receptionist maintained her professional smile. ¡°Hello, Sir. What would you like to buy or sell?¡± ¡°I¡¯m registering to buy monkey honey. In terms of quantity, the more the better,¡± Fang Yuan said. Yesterday at the library, Zhao Ren had already said that he would take care of the the money for the purchase. ¡°Okay. I¡¯ll help you register your purchase request.¡± ¡°Is there anything else I can help you with? For example, do you have any goods you want to sell, or¡­ ?¡± The receptionist¡¯s service attitude was quite considerate. This attitude did not change because Fang Yuan was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked young. She would not put on a classic act of looking down on others. After all, those who could come to the collection-level venue were all rich and noble. ¡°Selling goods?¡± Fang Yuan thought for a while and said, ¡°Can I see what other people are selling?¡± ¡°Of course, sir. These are public information.¡± The front desk lady smiled gently and took out a big notebook from behind, ¡°This is the purchase request information book. All the purchase request information released today is in it. It is arranged in chronological order. You can refer to it on your own.¡± He thanked the receptionist. When Fang Yuan was about to turn to the last page to look at the things that had recently been sold, he heard the gong beside him ring. This meant that another new order had just been sold. ¡°Congratulations to the anonymous seller for entrusting the sale of the twelve-pointed star pattern light butterfly to complete the transaction. The transaction price is eight million trading coins!¡± The receptionist¡¯s voice was crystal clear. Light Butterfly? Eight million trading coins! Fang Yuan was shocked. According to his common sense, although the light butterfly was indeed a relatively rare flying and insect-type pet beast, it couldn¡¯t be sold for eight million sky-high price. This was in fact a robbery! Chapter 29 As when Fang Yuan was feeling puzzled, a pretty but cold-looking red-haired girl walked up to the stage. Her beauty immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention. The red-haired girl took out the contract gem that was sealed with ¡°eleven-star pattern light butterfly¡±. She carefully studied the patterns on its back and then nodded with satisfaction. ¡°The quality is not bad.¡± ¡°Okay. Congratulations to the anonymous seller and the buyer, Zhang Wanyue. Both parties have successfully concluded the transaction. Congratulations again.¡± Fang Yuan thought for a moment. Zhang Wanyue seemed to be a familiar name. However, that was not what he should be thinking about now. He wanted to go up and ask this person why a light butterfly could be sold for such a high price. Before he could say anything, he noticed that there were many people surrounding the light butterfly and chattering non-stop. ¡°Tsk tsk, this quality is really amazing. Eight million. This money is really well spent!¡± ¡°Eleven star pattern, it¡¯s really rare! I have a nine star pattern, but I can¡¯t bear to sell it. Haha, sister, you have good eyesight.¡± ¡°This is my first time seeing it. Look at how clear the pattern is, though it¡¯s a white-winged and it¡¯s a bit of a pity.¡± ¡°Strange patterns are already rare enough. You still want strange-colored patterns? How can you get it at eight million? You have to go up to at least ten million!¡± ¡°Since all the butterfly friends are gathered here today, why don¡¯t we all show off our collections? Little girl, what do you think?¡± ¡­ Since Zhang Wanyue came down from the stage, people of different ages, genders, and genders had gathered around her. They started to discuss among themselves. They were all speaking with strange slang. Even Fang Yuan, who had read a lot of books yesterday which taught him a lot about this world, was still confused. Zhang Wanyue, who was surrounded in the middle, said, ¡°My fellow butterfly friends, I¡¯m sorry to spoil everyone¡¯s mood. Actually, I¡¯m not a collector of light butterflies. I bought this eleven-star pattern light butterfly not for myself, but for a senior in the army.¡± ¡°I see.¡± The people next to him continued to talk about other topics. They stood there and listened for a while. Fang Yuan roughly understood the situation of this small circle. Just like there were no two identical leaves in the world, there were no two pet beasts in the world that were exactly the same. Even if they were the same kind of pet beasts, they would naturally have different qualities, different grades, and even different appearances. Of course, most of them only had very slight differences. For example, they were also shadow wolves, but some of them had straight ears, and some folded ears. Some of them had a gap in their ears or something like that. However, they they are collectively called Shadow Wolves. The same was true for other kinds of pet beasts, but light butterflies were very special. Most of these pet beasts had white wings, and the patterns on their wings were like pentagrams. However, nature was just that amazing. In addition to the usual white, there were also a small number of light butterflies with red, orange, yellow, turquoise, green, blue, purple, black, and silver wings. These were called ¡°exotic color light butterflies¡±. At the same time, the patterns on the wings of light butterflies were also different. Pentagram was usually the most common. However, there were also three-pointed stars, four-pointed stars, six-pointed stars, seven-pointed stars, eight-pointed stars, nine-pointed stars, ten-pointed stars, eleven-pointed stars, and twelve-pointed stars. The other nine different patterns existed were called ¡°exotic pattern light butterflies¡±. Both exotic color light butterflies and exotic pattern light butterflies were extremely rare. Humans had a very strong desire for what was scarce, and everyone wanted what was scarce. Therefore, according to the degree of scarcity, exotic-colored and exotic-patterned light butterflies could be sold at a high price. That was why Zhang Wanyue would spend eight million to buy an eleven-pointed star-patterned light butterfly. This was because exotic-patterned light butterflies were extremely rare and worth this price. At the same time, humans had another extremely strong desire, which was to collect and collect. Just like how some people¡¯s hobby was stamp collecting. Many rich people¡¯s hobby was to collect all kinds of light butterflies and collect them as their pet beasts. In the small circle of the upper-class, collecting light butterflies was also considered an elegant hobby and was recognized by the same circle. It could be said that the light butterflies with different colors and patterns were the hard currency of luxury goods in this world. If that was the case¡­ Fang Yuan looked at the light butterflies that he had captured in the arcane realm behind the mountain through the contract gem. In his previous life, he was a serious player of Pok¨¦mon. If he could only contract one pet of the same type, he would choose to contract those that had characteristics as much as possible If he could contract more than one pet of the same type, he would try his best to make each pet have different characteristics. At that time, when he was capturing the light butterflies, Fang Yuan was quite surprised because there were always a few butterflies with bright colors and unique patterns. Now, he became silent and mobilized his spiritual power to carefully examine their colors and the patterns on their backs. He found that among his 100 light butterflies, there was no white or pentagram. In other words, all of them were exotic-color light butterflies with exotic patterns. Moreover, each of them had a different color or pattern! When the shock in his heart gradually subsided, Fang Yuan slowly opened his mouth and asked the audience, ¡°I want to ask, if there are different kinds of strange-colored light butterflies with strange patterns on their hands, how much would they be worth?¡± ¡°That depends on how many there are.¡± ¡°Dozens of them?¡± To keep a low profile, Fang Yuan gave a vague number. ¡°Dozens¡­ dozens of them?¡± The person who was asked widened his eyes and looked shocked. ¡°The value¡­ is unlimited!¡± Chapter 30 The collectors present were still together discussing their collection of light butterflies. However, Fang Yuan had already left the scene while the crowd was in chaos. He could imagine the disbelief of the people present when he released more than a hundred exotic color and pattern light butterflies, as well as the rush to buy them. However, Fang Yuan was naturally not satisfied with this. He wanted to sell his entire set of butterflies of light at a better price. He put his thought into action. Fang Yuan strolled toward the luxury trade venue, where the transaction amount was more than 50 million, and the value was not capped. Naturally, more wealthy businessmen and nobles gathered there. At the entrance of the venue, he was called by the beautiful service lady. ¡°Sir, please allow us to look at your credentials.¡± After Fang Yuan showed his credentials. ¡°Our luxury venue only uses one method of transaction, and that is auction.¡± The service lady said politely, ¡°In order to protect the privacy of both parties involved in the auction, we will first invite all the guests to change into this invisibility cloak.¡± What was handed over from the other party was a thin, veil-like hooded cloak. This was a pet item made from the feathers of the invisibility sparrow and the cashmere of the transformed sheep. It could only be used by trainers. As the name suggested, it could make the wearer invisible for a certain period of time. No one would be able to find out their real identities. Usually, when one was rich to a certain extent, the requirement for personal privacy was even higher. One would not want others to know what they had bought or sold. Such services at the pet trade fair could satisfy their needs. Fang Yuan put on the invisibility cloak and walked into the luxury goods venue. The venue was located in the middle. It was magnificent like an ancient Roman colosseum. In the middle was an elegant yellow rosewood table with eight immortals. On the table was an object covered with a red cloth. The auction would begin here. Looking around from the middle, although the stairs above were full of people, one could only see some vague figures. They couldn¡¯t even tell if this person was tall, short, fat, or thin. This was the effect of wearing an invisibility cloak. Everyone could choose to go up and auction items, or they could raise their placards to buy items. When Fang Yuan came in, the previous auction was just over. VIP number 39 had bought the item with 95 million, the abyssal clam¡¯s pearl. He was free to sign up for the auction. Fang Yuan came to the stage. According to the rules of the auction, each VIP wearing an invisibility cloak only needed to show the item they wanted to trade on the stage. They could fully show the attraction of the item on the stage, and the people below would start to bid for it. Considering that some items were relatively small, the audience might not be able to see the details clearly. Therefore, the organizers had prepared a large projector. All the details would be projected directly onto the large screen surrounding the four walls. The sound and light were very effective. The guaranteed price of all the items could not be lower than 50 million, and the starting price of all the customers could not be lower than 50 million. This monetary limit ensured that only the top nobles from all over would participate in the auction. It thus would not delay the time of the buyers and sellers. Fang Yuan took out a contract gem first. Rays of silver light flashed, drowning everyone¡¯s line of sight. A purple light butterfly blossomed from Fang Yuan¡¯s hand like a bright iris flower. Then, it slowly flew into the air above the stage. It danced beautifully and wonderfully. Most of the people present were from aristocratic families. The Zhang, Wang, Li, and Chen families had all sent their representatives to participate in the trade fair. The elder of the Zhang family said, ¡°You¡¯re showing off just a light butterfly? Are you kidding me? What kind of place do you think this is?¡± The elder of the Wang family said, ¡°There are nine types of light butterflies: red, orange, yellow, turquoise, green, blue, purple, black, and silver. The rarity of these light butterflies is increasing. This purple light butterfly might be considered rare in the eyes of small collectors. However, it¡¯s still a little too small-minded to be placed in the circle of collectors at our level.¡± The elder of the Li family said, ¡°I have a friend who is a collector and has already collected the other eight different colors. The only thing missing now is the purple color. If the price is cheap, I might as well bid for it as a favor.¡± The elder of the Chen family said, ¡°The different colors themselves are not considered the rarest. If it¡¯s a different color with a different pattern, then it will be interesting. It¡¯s best if you can see the pattern on its back and its appearance before negotiating the price.¡± As the crowd discussed, Fang Yuan waved his hand again. The purplish light butterfly faced the projector on the stage and used its skill, [ iron wings ] ! Thus, on the projection screen on all four sides. Everyone could clearly see that on the thin and light wings of the butterfly, there were twelve neatly carved points. From the three-pointed star to the twelve-pointed star, the twelve-pointed star was the most precious. Just now, an ordinary light butterfly with eleven-pointed stars could be sold for eight million, let alone a purple light butterfly with twelve-pointed stars. ¡°Oh? So it¡¯s a purple light butterfly with twelve-pointed stars? Interesting.¡± ¡°It looks quite good.¡± ¡°Let me discuss the price with my old friend first.¡± ¡°The estimated price should be over 50 million. It has just reached the standard of the transaction.¡± When everyone had almost settled on the expected price, Fang Yuan did not announce the start of the auction. Just when everyone was puzzled, rays of light flashed continuously on the stage. Red, orange, yellow, turquoise, green, blue, purple, black, and silver. From under the cloak of the mysterious person on the stage, countless light butterflies flew out at the same time, like a magician¡¯s dream performance! It was more like a scene of a hundred birds paying homage to a phoenix. The audience stood up in shock: ¡°What?! It¡¯s¡­ it¡¯s all¡­ It¡¯s all light butterflies with exotic colors and patterns!¡± Chapter 31 Perhaps one or two mutant light butterflies were nothing in front of these people. What if there were a hundred of them? Everyone stood up! All the distinguished guests present couldn¡¯t help but stand up and look at the spectacular scene on the stage. It was the same for any collection. A single item wasn¡¯t worth much, but a complete set of items was. If it included the complete collection of all the mutants, then it would be even more valuable. The spotlight on the stage shone on Fang Yuan, who was wearing an invisible cloak. Hundred of light butterflies were emitting different colors. They became the absolute focus of today¡¯s auction. The air on the stage froze in an instant. No one dared to breathe loudly. They were afraid of disturbing this beautiful scene. Under Fang Yuan¡¯s guidance, the butterflies danced around the entire stage and stopped in front of the projector one after another. They displayed the patterns on their wings. Every one of them had an exotic pattern! Fang Yuan used a deliberately disguised voice and said in a deep voice, ¡°Everyone, this is the item I¡¯m auctioning today. It¡¯s a butterfly array formed by a hundred butterflies with exotic patterns of light.¡± In an instant, the audience was in an uproar. The elder of the Zhang family said, ¡°It¡¯s simply too showy, blinding my eyes! This person must be a young master or daughter from a top-tier wealthy family!¡± The elder of the Li family said, ¡°Immediately contact the family and mobilize all the funds. No matter what, we must buy this butterfly array.¡± The elder of the Wang family said, ¡°I, an old man, have never seen such a spectacular scene in my entire life.¡± The elder of the Chen family said, ¡°Before this, no one has ever been so determined to capture the same type of pet. The value of this collection is hard to estimate, so the closing price¡­ I simply can¡¯t imagine it!¡± As the trader gave the order, the auction officially began. Anonymous buyer said, ¡°200 million!¡± Trader said ¡°Alright. 200 million. The first bidder to raise his paddle announced this price.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°A mere 200 million. You must be joking. 530 million!¡± Trader said, ¡°The boss is generous. I didn¡¯t expect the second bid to break the record for the highest amount of butterfly collection in history.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°That¡¯s it? 820 million!¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°The only item in the world, 1.2 billion.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°Interesting. There¡¯s nothing I like that I can¡¯t get my hands on. Two billion!¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°2.5 billion.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°Three billion!¡± Trader said, ¡°Looks like this collection is especially loved by everyone. The price has quickly risen from hundreds of millions to more than a billion!¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°You¡¯re going against me, aren¡¯t you? 3.5 billion.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°Four billion!¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°4.5 billion.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°4¡­ 4.8 billion.¡± Trader said, ¡°Wow, now it looks like the big shots are fighting with each other. We still have to wait and see who will win in the end, but I believe the final result will be out soon.¡± Anonymous buyer said, ¡°Five billion!¡± Trader said, ¡°Five billion going once! Five billion going twice! Five billion going thrice!¡± ¡°Deal!¡± ¡°Congratulations to this anonymous buyer. Five billion trading coins for buying the butterfly array, this precious collection.¡±. ¡°Congratulations again. Today¡¯s auction item has broken the record of more than ten years of trading transactions! Five billion trading coins is really shocking. I¡¯m afraid that the newcomers will have to chase after it for a very, very long time.¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan received a black-gilded card. There were five billion trading coins in his trading card. ¡°Sir, this is the highest-level black-gold card in the world for the pet auction house. You can use it at any branch in the future. You will enjoy our supreme service.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s voice was so indifferent that it did not sound like a nouveau riche who had just received a windfall. This caused countless speculation by the audience. They all wondered which family this mysterious person who sold hundred of butterfly array was from. The auction was still going on. The next item to be auctioned was master gem. Compared to conventional contract gems, master gems were the product of top-tier alchemy. Each gem had a master serial number corresponding to the creator. These masters were either the masters of the arcane realm obelisk, or the honorary professors of the Alchemy Society. It was said that there were no more than ten masters in the world who could refine such gems. Master gems strengthened by alchemy had a qualitative leap compared to ordinary contract gems. The contract magic circuit was modified. The contract did not require the agreement of both parties. Instead, as long as the trainer initiated the contract, the contract could be forced. In this way, even the most difficult pet could be captured directly. ¡°Master gems are all custom-made by the masters. They are not sold to the public, so the number of them in the world is very limited.¡± ¡°The starting price for this auction is 90 million.¡± ¡°100 million.¡± ¡°110 million.¡± ¡°120 million.¡± The butterfly array just now was a unique exception. Generally speaking, in other transactions, when everyone auctioned something, the pace of raising the price was steady. The money of the rich was also money. Every ten million bid was a more normal situation. Fang Yuan calmly said, ¡°300 million.¡± Hiss. Everyone around sucked in a breath of cold air. This f*cking bid was a little too much. Moreover, from the sound of it, the person who called out the bid was none other than the mysterious person who had just sold the butterfly array and raised five billion! Who would dare compete with him for what he wanted. You know, everyone here, even if they have a place in the family, but mobilizing such a large sum of money still needed to be reported. The mystery man, on the other hand, has five billion in liquidated cash! At Fang Yuan¡¯s end, he knew that now the most urgent need was to improve their own strength. The exotic light butterfly was a pet that only had ornamental value. He didn¡¯t have a strong need for it. Or it could be said that it wasn¡¯t the time to enjoy life yet. After selling a hundred light butterflies, he now had enough trading coins. He already knew that trading coins were only used in auctions, so he should use a fast way to raise the price to get the item he needed the most. As for the master gem, it could directly contract with a pet. It was something that he had to get. Fang Yuan had seen in the history of the transaction that the master gem was sold for around 290 million. Therefore, 300 million was definitely not a small amount, and it was definitely intimidating. ¡°300 million going once, 300 million going twice, 300 million going thrice.¡± ¡°Deal!¡± [ Ding! Hundred times enhancement successful! Master gem has been upgraded to grandmaster gem! ] Chapter 32 [ Ding! The 100-fold increase has been successful. The master¡¯s gem has been upgraded to a grandmaster¡¯s gem. ] The auction continued. ¡°The next item to be auctioned is the light butterfly¡¯s special evolution tool [ butterfly orchid ] .¡± Good item, bid! [ Ding. The 100-fold increase in quality has been successful! ] [ The butterfly orchid has been upgraded to a golden butterfly orchid. ] [ The effect is to upgrade any level of light butterfly pet to gold grade. ] ¡°The next item to be auctioned is high-grade pet food, monkey honey.¡± Bid! Other than the grandmaster gem¡¯s binding contract, the monkey honey¡¯s effect could be considered a double insurance. [ Ding. The 100-fold increase in quantity has been successful! ] [ A jar of monkey honey has been upgraded to 100 jars! ] ¡°The next item to be auctioned is the map of the back mountain arcane realm (remnant) !¡± Bid! The teleportation of the arcane realm was random. With this map and Chester¡¯s navigation ability, the next time when exploring the arcane realm, they could accurately locate the Titan bear and capture it. [ Ding. 100 times increase in granularity successful! ] [ The map of the back mountain arcane realm (remnant) has now enhanced to the map of the back mountain arcane realm (perfect) ! ] In the subsequent auctions, Fang Yuan finished buying the items that he needed urgently and spent a lot of money to buy many health products and companion beasts for his mother. In the end, he used the remaining money to buy pet consumables, such as the previous stamina mixture. The next thing he needed to do was to go to the arcane realm again and capture the Titan bear. ¡­ Three years later, in the arcane realm at the back of the mountain. Fang Yuan stepped out of the realm with a confident smile. After training in the arcane realm for three years, he had made great progress again. The story in the arcane realm was very simple. It could be explained in one sentence. He fought with the Titan bear for three years. Fang Yuan did as the pharmaceutical professor, Zhao Ren, said. First, he smeared the thousand-year-old monkey honey on the front paw of the Titan bear. The Titan bear really woke up from its hibernation occasionally. Then, it stretched out its pink tongue and licked its palm, looking very satisfied. Initially, it wanted to chase Fang Yuan away, but considering that the honey was too fragrant, it let down its guard and got used to Fang Yuan staying by its side. While waiting for the Titan bear to hibernate, Fang Yuan naturally did not relax his spiritual power cultivation. After the Titan bear woke up, it found out there was no more honey to eat. Then, it saw the empty honey jar in Fang Yuan¡¯s hand. It was a little disappointed and intended to leave. However, when it turned around, Fang Yuan took out more than a hundred jars of monkey honey from his meat pocket! The Titan Bear was shocked! It took the initiative to invite Fang Yuan, ¡°Are you willing to form a contract with me and be my master from now on?¡± Fang Yuan took out the grandmaster gem. ¡°No problem. I¡¯ll give you as much as you can eat!¡± The contract was successful, and the enhancement was a hundred times! [ Scientific name: Titan bear ] [ Bloodline: Titan ] [ Rarity: Gold intermediate-tier before enhancement. After enhancement, Gold Pinnacle (requires evolution potion to level up) ] [ Level: Grade 4 intermediate-tier ] [ Attributes: Beast, giant ] [ Positioning: Vanguard, meat shield, support ] [ Skills: 1. Meat bullet collision, 2. Mount Tai pressure, 3. Metal wall, 4. Self-healing in deep sleep ] [ Meat bullet collision: Titan bear¡¯s hands and feet shrink inward, turning into meat bullets, charging in the specified direction, dealing impact damage to the enemy. ] [ Mount Tai pressure: Titan Bear uses all of its strength, like Mount Tai pressure, sitting firmly on the enemy¡¯s head. ] [ Metal wall: Titan Bear¡¯s body is covered with mud, ignoring all attacks, it can neither move nor attack. ] [ Self healing in deep sleep: The Titan Bear is sleepy. It does not want to fight. It will fall into a deep sleep and quickly recover all its attributes. ] [ Personality: Lazy, lethargic. ] [ Interest: Monkey honey. ] ¡­ After looking through all the attributes of the Titan bear, Fang Yuan felt that this trip was not wasted. Whether it was in terms of quality, skills, or personality, the three dimensions of the Titan bear were perfect. At the same time, if the evolution potion was successfully prepared, Fang Yuan would soon have his first platinum-level pet. He then left the arcane realm. The guardian of the back mountain arcane realm, Yao Yong, once again nodded and greeted him, ¡°It seems that you¡¯ve grown quite a bit. I¡¯m looking forward to your performance in this year¡¯s freshman military training.¡± Freshman military training, was called the freshman combat military training in full. It was a trial that all the selected new senior third year students had to take part. All the top senior third year students in all the schools in the area would be transferred to the war zone where demonized beasts raged, to guard the border, to fight against demonized beasts, and to protect the civilians at the border. Let these young people realize in advance that the greater their ability, the greater the responsibility. At the border town. This was a small town that was adjacent to Chuxin City. Not only was it the border defense of the nearby cities, it was also a granary within a radius of a thousand miles. All the top students of Chuxin City¡¯s high schools gathered here. The freshman military training officially began. That night, at the border camp, flags fluttered and bonfires were lit. ¡°Little brats, listen carefully!¡± Fang Yuan and the other students stood beside the high platform of the camp. On the high platform was the instructor of the freshman¡¯s military training, He Liwei. He had a buzz cut, dark skin, and scars on his muscular body under his shirt. It was obvious that he had been through hundreds of battles. ¡°Coming to border town means coming to the battlefield! No matter which family you came from, from today onwards, you will only have one identity, and that is to be my soldiers! ¡°Right now, the granary of the border town is being invaded by a foreign species, the demonized giant rats. ¡°These demonized giant rats are eating food, destroying the environment, and even seriously affecting the lives of the civilians. You are pet trainers, people who protect the land. From today onwards, I will organize according to your schools. From tomorrow onwards, the respective teams will guard the granary and kill these harmful rats! Do you all understand?!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± An earth-shattering roar came from below the stage. Chapter 33 ¡°Disperse. Now, take everyone to the camp to rest. Tomorrow morning at 7 am, gather here on time.¡± Instructor He Liwei clapped his hands in satisfaction. He led the group of students toward the living area. The students behind whispered to each other. Compared to the fear of going to the battlefield, everyone was actually uncontrollably excited. Leaving their parents and going out to camp was an exciting experience for the teenagers who were only 16 or 17 years old. ¡°I wonder where they will put us up?¡± ¡°It must be in the tent. I haven¡¯t experienced military life yet.¡± ¡°It¡¯s so exciting. I hope to share a room with our class belle. Listening to her shower, I can eat three big bowls of rice.¡± ¡°How¡¯s the food here? Looking at the instructor¡¯s health, it must be a meal of steak.¡± Everyone whispered and discussed. Until they saw the camp. Everyone looked at each other. There were no tents at all. The Logistics Department gave everyone a broken sleeping bag and a biscuit that was as hard as a rock. Everyone was required to lie down in their clothes. They would sleep around the fire and spend the night. ¡°No way, Sir. We have to find a place to sleep. The ground is full of mud. It¡¯s cold and hard.¡± ¡°It¡¯s over. I¡¯m starting to miss the Soft Xi Mengsi and the warm cashmere quilt at home.¡± ¡°This cake is as hard as moving bricks. Why don¡¯t you just ask me to eat soil!¡± Apart from Fang Yuan, everyone who came to the freshman military training was basically rich kids who were used to a comfortable life. Usually, they ate well and slept well at home. They would live a life of being the best. Now, they could not accept it if they were to sleep on the ground and eat hard biscuits. ¡°What nonsense are you all talking about?!¡± Instructor He Liwei¡¯s angry roar was like thunder, silencing the discussion of the whole place. ¡°This is a battlefield, not your own home! Those who are complaining and don¡¯t want to participate in the military training, stand out now and I promise to send you back to your mother¡¯s arms to suck milk!¡± This roar made everyone not dare to say anything more. ¡°If you want to eat well and live well, there are ways, too. You have to earn it with your own hands!¡± He Liwei pointed at a small villa on a hillside not far away. Although it was just an ordinary tube-shaped building in the city, but on this battlefield, it was as beautiful as heaven. What made people even more envious was that there was a barbecue grill outside the villa with smoke rising from it. Even from so far away, one could still smell the fragrance of the barbecue. ¡°Freshman, did you see that place? That is where the first-class soldiers live. If you want to live there, bring back the magic crystals in the body of the demonized giant rat tomorrow. Bringing back 10 magic crystals, you can live in a tent. Bringing back 50, you can live in a building. If you bring a f*cking hundred magic crystals, you can live in a villa. The military camp is such a place. Whoever has the most credit will be in charge!¡± ¡°Similarly, that villa is next to the military supplies supplier. There¡¯s good meat and good wine, but you have to give me the magic crystals of the demonized giant rats in exchange! Anything else, I won¡¯t accept!¡± The instructor explained the rules of the military camp to the students, so they could only accept the current situation for now. ¡°Demonized giant rats, just wait for me!¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to kill a hundred of them tomorrow!¡± ¡°Our school will definitely kill more of them than you guys!¡± ¡°We¡¯re going to have a fight, right? Do you dare to make a bet and have a competition?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s have a competition, who¡¯s afraid now?¡± While they were discussing, a few students from The First High School had an argument with their classmates from another key school, The Experimental Middle School. ¡°Alright. It¡¯s time to rest. Quiet, everyone.¡± Don¡¯t move, don¡¯t talk, be alert, and be on guard against the sneak attack of the demonized giant rats at night!¡± After the instructor finished his words, he left first. The next morning, everyone gathered and began to form teams. ¡°For this military training, students can form a team of three to five people to fight. They can also act alone.¡± ¡°Everyone can communicate on their own and form their own teams. The team leader will come over later to register. Is everyone here?¡± ¡°Okay, let¡¯s start the roll call.¡± ¡°The First High School in the city, Zhang Yu, Li Yizheng, Wang Zijun, Chen Ying¡­ Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan, where is student Fang Yuan?¡± The instructor repeated the name a few times but did not hear any response. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± The girls from The Experimental Middle School snickered at the side. Among them, Xu Zhiyu, Xu Zhishu, and Xu Zhiyin were triplets. Even in The Experimental Middle School, which was filled with beautiful girls, they were at the level of school beauties. Apart from their impressive looks, they were also among the best in the school. The three of them had fire-type dinosaur pets, water-type turtle pets, and grass-type vine pets. The power of their three attributes of mutually reinforcing and counteracting could not be underestimated. Especially the Xu family. As a family with a arcane realm inheritance, they also had a secret scroll of [ joint attack ] . In other words, when two types of pet beasts fought at the same time, the strength of the skill would increase tremendously. Therefore, the three of them formed a battle team, which was also the team that the instructors and teachers favored the most. Xu Zhiyu said, ¡°Your class¡¯s Fang Yuan¡­ could it be that he ran away at the last minute?¡± Xu Zhishu said, ¡°Or it could be that he was lying in bed and didn¡¯t get out of bed.¡± Xu Zhiyin said, ¡°Wasn¡¯t he quite good at bragging yesterday? Why did he cower so quickly today?¡± Meanwhile, Fang Yuan¡¯s classmates frowned and felt that things were not that simple. Chapter 34 Border town, in the wild. Fang Yuan was looking for traces of these saboteurs through the footprints of the demonized giant rats. After hearing from the instructor that he could form a team by himself, he immediately chose to set off on the journey alone. He did not have the time to accompany other students to cooperate. His actual combat ability had already improved greatly after two arcane realm training sessions. What was his current level? He could use the demonized giant rat to test it out.. From the footprints, the demonized giant rat was definitely not the size of an ordinary rat. It was similar to the demonized sparrow he encountered when he first went to the arcane realm in the back mountain. It was ten times the size of an ordinary rat. While he was thinking, a huge rat with sharp teeth and demonic eyes drilled out of the huge tree hole in front of him. This should be the demonized giant rat. Not just one, but a group of them! ¡°Come out! Light butterfly!¡± A golden light flashed and the light butterfly that had been upgraded by the item [ phalaenopsis ] appeared. At this moment, the silver grade light butterfly had already been upgraded to gold low grade. While its various abilities had been increased by several times, it had also awakened a skill that was especially effective in today¡¯s battle. [ light dizziness ]. [ Effect: After the light of the righteous path flashes, all opponents who face the light will be frozen due to fear of the light. ] [ Additional effect: For opponents with an evil attribute, the effect increases by 300%. ] And the attributes of the demonized giant rat just happened to be the evil attribute. The giant rat in the front row flashed, jumped, and rolled a few times before flying towards Fang Yuan¡¯s direction. ¡°Light butterfly! Use light dizziness!¡± As soon as he said that, the light of the righteous path shone on the ground. All the giant rats that had been flying for less than three seconds froze in the air. Then, under the effect of gravity, they fell onto the ground. ¡°Xiao Ying, it¡¯s time for us to harvest!¡± The shadow wolf appeared from the shadows. With multiple attacks, all the heads of the demonized giant rats on the ground were cut into half. The crystal cores hidden in the brains were exposed. The crystal cores, big or small, flickered with a pitch-black light. The big ones were level three crystal cores, while the small ones were level two. It could be said that they had gained a lot. ¡°Iris spider king, clean up the battlefield.¡± Fang Yuan gave the final order. He was a very thrifty person and did not like to waste. Therefore, he had to store all the corpses of the demonized giant rats into his portable bag. When the time came, he could still sell them in the black market. The iris spider king used a spider web to wrap all the corpses tightly. A ray of light flashed. Only the blood of the giant rats was left on the ground. Fang Yuan was already prepared. He was quietly waiting for the next wave of giant rats to attack. ¡­ At the same time, on the other side of the camp. ¡°Attention! Level two alert! Attack! Attack!¡± The scouts on the watchtower of the camp sent out a signal, ¡°The group of demonized rats is attacking!¡± Instructor He Liwei raised his arms and shouted, ¡°Students, the situation is urgent. We can¡¯t form up in time. Bring your pets and head out of the city to fight!¡± ¡°Fight! Fight! Fight!¡± ¡°Kill all those d*mn rats!¡± ¡°I want to fight ten of them!¡± When they got out of the city gate, everyone was shocked. They were not rats at all. These demonized rats were all fat and strong. They were as big as sows. Their eyes were shining with a crazy fighting spirit, and their teeth were as sharp as crocodiles. One of the demonized giant rats jumped up and bit on the wooden fence of the granary. In an instant, a huge gap appeared in the fence. Then, one after another. A few giant rats had already rushed into the granary and started to eat the food stored inside. Seeing this destructive power, many students were so scared that their legs went soft. ¡°Is this really¡­ just a rat?¡± ¡°Flying pounce, steel Claw, this is a level 3 and above demonized beast, right?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t beat it, I can¡¯t beat it at all.¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you just say you wanted to fight ten?¡± ¡°No, but this freshman training is too difficult, it¡¯s a hell-level training.¡± Most of the students released their pet beasts, but most of them only barely survived. To prevent so many demonized giant rats from destroying the granary and eating the food, there was absolutely no strength left. The three Zheng Sisters, on the other hand, were barely under the combined efforts of the water, fire, and grass type pet beasts. They were fighting tenaciously against a few demonized giant rats. ¡­ After a fierce battle, the group of demonized giant rats were finally eliminated, and the harvest was counted. It was discovered that out of the nine demonized giant rats that attacked, Instructor He Liwei killed four while the Zheng sisters killed another four. Meanwhile, the situation at the city¡¯s The First High School was not looking good. Only Chen Ying cooperated with Zhang Yu, Li Yizheng, Wang Zijun, and the others, killed one of them. The others did not get anything. Xu Zhiyu pursed her lips. ¡°Heh. It seems that some schools not only produce deserters, but also trash.¡± Zhang Yu¡¯s face turned red. ¡°Who are you talking about? Who are you referring to trash?¡± The conflict between The Experimental Middle School and the city¡¯s The First High School had been going on for a long time. Any small matter would trigger to explode. Xu Zhishu did not show any weakness. ¡°We fought for so long, and you only killed one of them. If The High School isn¡¯t trash, then who else?¡± Li Yizheng said unhappily, ¡°That¡¯s because the strongest fighter in our class, Brother Yuan, isn¡¯t here today. Otherwise, he would have killed more than you guys.¡± Xu Zhiyin said, ¡°Brother Yuan? The strongest fighter in your class? The one who ran away in fear before the battle even started? Don¡¯t joke with me.¡± Wang Zijun also stood up. ¡°Student Fang Yuan is a very excellent trainer. He definitely won¡¯t run away before of the battle. Before we find out the truth, I won¡¯t allow you to slander his reputation.¡± Xu Zhiyin snorted. ¡°Reputation is earned through ability. If you have the ability, make him prove it to me. He has killed more than we did!¡± Chen Ying did not say anything. She just looked into the distance and silently chanted in her heart, ¡°He will prove it¡­ Fang Yuan will prove it.¡± Chapter 35 ¡°Stop arguing.¡± Instructor He Liwei interrupted their argument, ¡°Now, let¡¯s count the crystal cores in our hands and go to the military supplies department to exchange for food and accommodation for tonight.¡± They came to the entrance of the shop that looked like a snack bar next to the villa. ¡°I have a level-one crystal core.¡± ¡°This is a level-two crystal core. Can I exchange it for more?¡± ¡°Can I exchange the carcass of the demonized giant rat?¡± ¡°I want to eat!¡± ¡°Can I take a shower?!¡± ¡°I want to drink coke!¡± ¡°I want two clean quilts!¡± After receiving the spoils of war, everyone couldn¡¯t wait to carry out the trade. Last night and the whole day¡¯s battle had exhausted them. What they wanted to do the most at the moment was to eat a full meal, take a fragrant hot shower, and then crawl into the warm quilt to have a good sleep! The salesperson of the military supplies department looked at everyone with a smile. ¡°Okay, okay. Please line up, one at a time.¡± ¡°Two quilts, sold at the price of a complete level-one demonized beast carcass. Thank you for your patronage.¡± ¡°One liter of Coke, sold at one level-one demonized beast crystal core. Thank you for your patronage.¡± ¡°Half a box of instant noodles, sold at one level-two demonized beast crystal core. Thank you for your patronage.¡± ¡°You need to go to the villa area¡¯s bathhouse to take a bath. Each bath is priced at one level-one demonized beast crystal core.¡± ¡°If you want to spend the night in the villa area, please provide level-three demonized beast crystal core.¡± ¡°Also, a friendly reminder: the value of two demonized beast carcasses is equivalent to the demonized beast core of the same grade.¡± Everyone was stunned. ¡°Wow! I¡¯ve seen illegal shops, but I¡¯ve never seen such illegal shops!¡± ¡°Big Brother, you¡¯re robbing me in broad daylight! Are you crazy about money?¡± ¡°Do you know how much the crystal cores and demonized beast carcasses are worth outside? You¡¯re really asking for too much!¡± However, the salesperson only smiled slightly, ¡°It¡¯s very simple. Trading is a two-way transaction. If you feel that the price here is unreasonable, you can choose not to buy.¡± This attitude made everyone so angry that they vomited blood. The camp was three hundred kilometers away. Other than the military supplies department, there was no other shop. It was impossible not to spend money here. If you had no choice, you had to exchange the demonized beast crystal core. Otherwise, you would be left hungry and no place to sleep at night. The students were covered in mud as they sat around the fire. A bucket of instant noodles was passed from one end to the other, back and forth. Everyone took a sip, and all the noodles were sucked clean. Even the soup in the box was licked clean. The night was long, but everyone was hungry and didn¡¯t have the intention to sleep. At this moment, a vague figure appeared in the light of the fire. Fang Yuan walked in from outside the city. ¡°Eh? What are all of you doing sitting in such a place? Why aren¡¯t you staying at the Villa? What are you eating? Instant noodles? Why? Could it be that the roasted meat isn¡¯t fragrant enough?¡± Li Yi Zheng said, ¡°D*mn, Brother Yuan! You¡¯re finally back. You don¡¯t know, do you? That military supplies department is ridiculously dark!¡± Wang Zijun said, ¡°Today, they all said that you had run away. Student Fang Yuan, I knew that you would come back.¡± Zhang Yu said, ¡°You really don¡¯t know? That demonized giant rat was as big as a boar. It was really scary. All of us used our entire class¡¯s strength and only managed to kill one.¡± Chen Ying said, ¡°No matter what, it¡¯s good that you¡¯re back. Have you not eaten yet? I still have half a pack of compressed biscuits here. Let me give you some.¡± ¡­ Seeing that Fang Yuan had returned, the students of The First High School reported to him about the situation of the day. The students of the Experimental Middle School were not far away. As they only had three demonized beast crystal cores and three carcasses in total, their lives would not be any better than those of the students of The First High School. When they heard that Fang Yuan had returned, they all came over. ¡°The deserter is back? Let¡¯s go! Let¡¯s go and watch the joke!¡± ¡°Haha. Today, we have to teach this kid what it means by do not eat without working.¡± ¡°That¡¯s for sure. The students of The First High School might not even be able to protect themselves. He ran away at the last minute, and he still want to eat? Let¡¯s let him starve for a meal or two first!¡± The students of the Experimental Middle School went over to joiin the fun when they saw Fang Yuan. Although they didn¡¯t eat much themselves, but when they saw Fang Yuan who had just returned, it seemed like he was in a worse situation than they were. In comparison, they did not feel as miserable as Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan said, ¡°I have not eaten, but I don¡¯t plan to eat compressed biscuits. I want to change to something else.¡± The people around were stunned. ¡°Brother Yuan, you killed the demonized giant rat?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Fang Yuan said calmly. Fang Yuan¡¯s companions started to get excited. However, there were more voices of doubt from the Experimental Middle School. ¡°Good fellow, you can¡¯t go to the battlefield, and you¡¯re the best at bragging.¡± ¡°You ran away from the battlefield during the day, but you still dare to come back at night and say that you killed a monster.¡± ¡°How shameless.¡± Fang Yuan ignored these voices. He walked straight to the military supplies exchange counter and summoned Chester to the table. All what they could hear was ¡°Crash! Crash! Crash!¡± The sound of crystal cores hitting the counter continuously. So many crystal cores! So many, many crystal cores! So many, many, many crystal cores! Some were big and some small, but they were all shining with a pitch-black light and were stained with blood. Obviously, they were the demonized giant rat crystal cores that he had obtained today. ¡°One, two, three¡­ one hundred and seven, one hundred and eight, one hundred and nine, one hundred and ten!¡± ¡°Student Fang Yuan, you actually got one hundred and ten crystal cores by yourself?!¡± The waiter whose face was black just now was shocked in his eyes. ¡°You¡­ how did you do it?¡± ¡°Killing monsters.¡± Fang Yuan said calmly, ¡°Didn¡¯t you want to kill the demonized giant rats? I saw a few hundred of them outside the city, so I killed them all. However, there seemed to be a few left in the middle, and they ran into the city. After that, I couldn¡¯t find them. I don¡¯t know if you guys saw them.¡± After hearing that, the other students were also speechless. Li Yizheng cried out in surprise, and asked on behalf of everyone, ¡°So the nine that entered the city, could it be that they just¡­ just escaped from your battlefield?¡± ¡°It seems so.¡± Fang Yuan scratched his head and said. Chapter 36 Although what Fang Yuan said was ¡°should be¡±, everyone¡¯s heart was stormed with ¡°Yes, that¡¯s right!¡± The waiter¡¯s attitude instantly became attentive. ¡°What do you want to buy here? We will serve you wholeheartedly.¡± ¡°We have raw and thick-cut grain-fed steaks with sirloin, filet mignon, naked eye¡­ with black pepper sauce, mushroom sauce, spaghetti with tomato minced meat sauce¡­ choose filet mignon, right? Okay, medium-rare. Do you want the eggs fried on one side or on both sides¡­ ?¡± ¡°If you want to stay, we have prepared the emperor¡¯s room on the top floor of the villa for you.¡± ¡°An independent bathroom, an independent washroom, an LCD TV, and a game console. You can see everything from the floor-to-ceiling window.¡± ¡°A 1.8-meter-wide, 2-meter-long bed and a full set of cashmere bedding. I guarantee that you will enjoy a perfect and comfortable night.¡± ¡°An open-air garden is an ideal choice for entertaining relatives and friends, as well as outdoor barbecues.¡± The waiter counted the crystal cores and the carcasses of the demonized beast in his hands, at the same time, he introduced the service for the day to Fang Yuan in detail. Fang Yuan pointed at the counter. ¡°Pack everything up and take away.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the four burly men brought everything from the warehouse back to Fang Yuan¡¯s new room. There was a flurry of discussion behind him. ¡­ Fang Yuan arrived at the garden below the villa. He set up a fire and began to fry the steak. The buttery fragrance, the steak¡¯s meat fragrance, and the black pepper¡¯s fragrance blended together, and then floated leisurely in the air. A gentle breeze blew. Then, it came to the camp where his classmates were. ¡°Did you smell that? What¡¯s that smell?¡± ¡°Is it meat? Quick, slap me! Am I dreaming? How can this place have the smell of meat?¡± ¡°Look over there! Fang Yuan is frying steak.¡± ¡°F*ck, it¡¯s actually steak. I¡¯m licking the lid of the instant noodles here, and Fang Yuan is eating steak over there? What kind of world is this?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a human anymore. I want to be God Fang Yuan¡¯s dog! I want to eat the remains of his steak!¡± ¡°Fang Yuan, let me go to your room to warm your bed. I know all kinds of postures.¡± Anyway, the military supplies department had given him a lot. It would be a waste if he couldn¡¯t finish it all by himself, so he didn¡¯t mind giving some to his classmates. ¡°Cheng Hui, one serving of steak, 500,000 yuan.¡± Fang Yuan had always accepted money from everyone, and he didn¡¯t feel guilty at all. After all, his classmates were all rich people. He could not take out the crystal cores at the moment, but he could still take out his pocket money. He was also fair. A steak was not expensive. It was just a month¡¯s living expenses. After this meal, Chen Ying, Li Yizheng, Wang Zijun, and Zhang Yu ate with great gratitude. Li Yizheng said, ¡°I knew Brother Yuan would definitely come back, but I didn¡¯t expect you to come so quickly. You even brought such a big pile of crystal cores. Awesome.¡± Wang Zijun said, ¡°It seems that the distance between me and Fang Yuan has increased, but I will try my best to catch up with your footsteps.¡± Zhang Yu said, ¡°There was someone scolding you at the school next door today, and it was directly rebutted by me. Scolding you is scolding Class A, and scolding Class A is scolding me. Your strength is obvious to everyone, and we are proud of you.¡± Chen Ying said, ¡°This time, the level and strength of the demonized giant rat has far surpassed the past. We must pay more attention in the future.¡± ¡­ On the other side, the Experimental Middle School saw Fang Yuan eating meat and drinking soup with his classmates. They were extremely depressed. However, they were too embarrassed to go over when they had just said such arrogant words. They could only pinch their noses and close their eyes, pretending that they could neither see nor hear. Late at night, a strong wind blew. It was the cold of spring, and everyone was shivering from the cold. ¡°If only we had a blanket.¡± ¡°Sigh, my body is always sticky. I want to take a hot bath.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t sleep, I can¡¯t sleep at all.¡± ¡°There are so many mosquitoes in the toilets in the wild, I don¡¯t even dare to take off my pants.¡± ¡°I wonder what Fang Yuan¡¯s side is like.¡± ¡°What else can it be? Eating steak, drinking wine, taking a bath, singing songs. You guys are too much, why must you provoke Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°I heard that on the first day of school, he beat up all three of the students in the class, including the girls.¡± ¡°I think he beat up the teacher as well. He beat up the whole class until they were convinced.¡± ¡°Nonsense. I have a friend¡¯s best friend who is Fang Yuan¡¯s school security guard. He said that Fang Yuan beat up the dean, but the principal stood by the side and didn¡¯t dare to say anything.¡± In the middle of the night, everyone couldn¡¯t sleep, so they gathered around to discuss the urban legend. Soon, the urban legend became more and more ridiculous. Fang Yuan was already like the godfather of the Mafia in the hearts of everyone. ¡°But this person can¡¯t be without weaknesses, right?¡± ¡°Indeed, I heard that there are some. They said that Fang Yuan came from a commoner background and his family background was very ordinary, so he especially likes¡­ likes to make money.¡± ¡°I got it.¡± The three Xu sisters thought about it and decided to go over and have a chat with Fang Yuan. ¡­ ¡°Fang Yuan, are you still there?¡± ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°We¡¯re students from the Experimental Middle School, Xu Zhiyu, Xu Zhishu, and Xu Zhiyin.¡± ¡°Hello.¡± The three girls suddenly lowered their heads and bowed to Fang Yuan. Then, they apologized, ¡°We misunderstood you today and said bad things about you behind your back. We¡¯re sorry.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. Is there anything else?¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± The three Xu sisters were usually surrounded by the boys wherever they went. They had long been used to enjoying themselves. They thought that all the boys should treat them so warmly and even fawningly. Fang Yuan¡¯s indifferent reply.., made them feel a little uncomfortable. ¡°Well¡­ we just wanted to ask if we could borrow your bathroom to take a shower?¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Of course.¡± The girls¡¯eyes lit up. They didn¡¯t expect Fang Yuan to agree so readily. Looking at Fang Yuan now, they felt completely different. At that moment, they felt that he was the most charming man in the world. ¡°Really?¡± Fang Yuan nodded and extended his left hand. ¡°Thank you. A chance to take a shower in exchange for a pet beast or a precious artifact.¡± ¡°? ? ? ?¡± The three Xu sisters: ¡°You¡¯re f*cking even darker than the military supply department!¡± Chapter 37 Even so¡­ to the beautiful girls, image was very important, so they had to take a bath. Besides, it was very cold at night. After killing the demonized giant rat, they were extremely tired, and they really wanted to sleep well. In the end, they still submitted to Fang Yuan¡¯s conditions. ¡°Alright.¡± Third Sister Xu Zhiyin unwillingly took out a contract gem from her pocket, ¡°This is the wind chime beast that has been following me since I was young. Fang Yuan, you have to treat her well!¡± [ Ding. High-grade bronze detected. Level 3 wind chime beast. ] [ 100 times enhancement successful. Congratulation on obtaining middle-grade silver, level 3 wind chime beast. ] [ Scientific name: Wind chime beast. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Silver mid-grade. ] [ Level: Level 3 beginner. ] [ Attributes: metal, sound. ] [ Positioning: support. ] [ Skills: 1.

There is a certain probability that both parties will lose the will to fight [ Personality: Docile. ] [ Preferences: Being touched. ] Fang Yuan took the small wind chime that was floating in the air. He was very satisfied. Unlike the iris spider and the light butterfly, this was also a rather good pure support type pet. It seemed that the other party was quite sincere. ¡°Okay, please come in.¡± He made a hand gesture, indicating that Xu Zhiyin could enter the villa. ¡°Next.¡± Xu Zhishu took off a bracelet from her hand. ¡°Here, take it, rechargeable orb.¡± [ Ding. Pet item detected, rechargeable orb, remaining 50% energy. ] [ Effect: Only recharges part of the item. The list of rechargeable items are as follows¡­ ] [100-fold increase in adaptability has been successful. General-purpose charged orb. Now, you can charge any pet item. ] Just in time. Fang Yuan had just gotten the [ heart of the sea ] from the bet with Zhang Yu, and he was worried that there was no place to charge it. He really got what he wanted. He smiled and nodded his head. He accepted the precious artifact that Xu Zhishu had given him with satisfaction. ¡°It¡¯s your turn in the end.¡± As the eldest sister of the three sisters, Fang Yuan was looking forward to what Xu Zhiyu would give him. ¡°This is the secret scroll of the Xu family, [ joint attack ] . It¡¯s usually only circulated within the family. This is the rubbings of the first volume. Keep it well.¡± Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows. He knew that the descendants of these arcane realm families basically treated the things passed down in the family as their most precious treasures. Not to mention giving them away, they wouldn¡¯t even show them to the public. Why did it seem like they had suddenly changed? Xu Zhiyu pondered for a long time before saying, ¡°Student Fang Yuan, your strength has indeed surprised us. I dare say that this is not a height that people of the same age can reach. You are a rising genius overnight. In the future, you will definitely attract the attention of many factions. Today, the three of us have offended you. We are truly sorry. Giving you the family heirloom can be considered as a formal apology. On the other hand, it also means that we hope to befriend each other. In the future, when we meet again in other places, I hope that we will not be enemies.¡± After hearing this, Fang Yuan smiled. Obviously, this was not something that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl could say. ¡°Is it your idea, or the Xu family¡¯s?¡± ¡°It¡¯s¡­ the Xu family¡¯s idea.¡± Xu Zhiyu thought for a moment, and told the truth. It turned out that as the daughters of a noble family had come to a place like border town to guard, the family would definitely send experts to do the necessary security work. This expert of the Xu family was called Xu Chong. He had observed the conflict between the two sides and Fang Yuan¡¯s performance. He was not a fool. Anyone who was in the upper echelons of the family was not a fool. He immediately made a judgment, ¡°Fang Yuan, this child, has unfathomable potential. He definitely can not easily be made an enemy. It is even necessary to make a good friend. Ideally, he could be recruited into the family.¡± How exactly would he be bound to the Xu family? Xu Chong thought of a slightly radical and risky method. That was to provide a copy of the family¡¯s secret skill. [ pet combined attack ] was a key skill that only the Xu family had mastered. It was divided into three volumes. The first volume was mainly an overview of the secret skill. The Xu family had given this skill to Fang Yuan as a favor. At the same time, they could use the last two volumes as a condition of the trade, hoping that Fang Yuan could serve the Xu family in the future. That was why the previous scene that had happened which seemed to be the personal actions of the three Xu sisters. In reality, the Xu family was trying to express their goodwill to Fang Yuan through the three of them. Fang Yuan had already seen through all of this. However, he had no reason to reject the benefits that came to his doorstep. ¡°Alright then. Please thank your family¡¯s deacons on my behalf.¡± Fang Yuan took the secret skill and thanked them. The Xu family might have thought that he would be controlled by them in the future if he took the first scroll of the [ combined attack ] . But in reality: [ Ding. The secret skill scroll, [ pet combined attack ] , first scroll detected. ] [100 times enhancement successful. Congratulations on obtaining the full scroll of [ pet combined attack ] ! ] [ Combined attack: Pet beasts of similar natures fight together. Skill strength increased by 300%! ] Xu Zhiyu said, ¡°I will pass the message. Student Fang Yuan, I will go to the room to take a shower first.¡± It was already late at night. Everyone went to sleep, but the warehouse was not peaceful. At that time, when Fang Yuan was fighting the wave of hundreds of demonized giant rats alone, some of them could not help but escape into the city. The instructor led the other students to kill nine of them. However, one was not found by the crowd, but secretly hidden in the granary. After eating the food in the granary, it sneaked into the cow shed of the ranch. The cow shed raised a large number of beefalo. It was used by the border town officers and soldiers as the food to improve the quality of their life. The military supplies of steak was also from this. The demonized giant rat sneaked in, then, it bit the back of the beefalo. The state of the cow immediately changed. Its eyes became redder and redder, its breathing became thicker and thicker, and the rhythm of its hooves became more and more rapid. Then, it suddenly rushed forward and crashed into a docile cow next to it. Beefalo, demonized! Chapter 38 It was already late at night, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Suddenly, something strange happened. In the pasture, all the beef cattle were growing rapidly, and they were getting bigger and bigger, breaking the ceiling of the cattle shed. There were at least 500 of these cattle. Due to the spread of the demonized giant rats, all the beefalos had entered a demonized madness. Now, they were no longer docile livestock, but uncontrollable demons! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! The beefalos rampaged and crashed into the sleeping military tent. Many of the soldiers who had fallen into a sweet sleep did not have the time to wake up from their dreams. Their intestines were pierced through by the sharp barbed horns. ¡°Help! Quick! Help!¡± ¡°Wake up! Everyone wake up!¡± ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What¡¯s wrong? What has happened?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a mad cow! A mad cow that¡¯s bigger than a house!¡± ¡°Sentry? Where¡¯s the sentry? Quick, sound the alarm! Inform everyone to enter an SSS state of alert!¡± ¡°Save the students first!¡± ¡°Signal flares! Quickly release the signal flares! Inform the military command!¡± ¡°The outer wall of border town has fallen. Everyone, run!¡± Urgent cries for help, cries of pain, accompanied by high-pitched or low-pitched cries, and the ear-piercing sound of red signal flares cutting through the sky were all mixed together. Fang Yuan and the others, who stayed in the villa on the mountain, were able to escape because they were not at the scene next to the cattle shed. However, they soon realized the seriousness of the situation. ¡°All of you, don¡¯t move around. I¡¯ll go over and take a look.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s voice was still exceptionally calm at this moment, giving people an inexplicable sense of peace. Chen Ying looked out of the window from afar, she immediately stopped him. ¡°No, you can¡¯t go. This is not a problem that we students can solve. We have to hand it over to the instructors and the others. What we need to do now is to protect our own lives and not act rashly. Otherwise, it will only cause trouble for everyone.¡± Li Yizheng also took a step forward and said, ¡°Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan! Listen to my advice! We all know that you are very strong, very strong. However, the situation this time is different from the past. The stronger the power of the animals and plants, the crazier they become after demonization. Even the demonized sparrow and the demonized rat are already very difficult to deal with. The destructive power of the demonized beefalo is simply unimaginable.¡± Wang Zijun shook his head and said, ¡°I agree with Yizheng¡¯s view. Previously, when we fought the demonized giant rat, we relied on the geographical advantage of the city defense to barely be able to defend against the invasion of the enemy. Now, the enemy is in the center of the city. There are a lot of cattle, far more than the defending army can resist. In other words, very soon, the entire border town will fall. You must not be a hero for a moment!¡± Zhang Yu also said anxiously, ¡°Fang Yuan, don¡¯t go. I¡¯m begging you.¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan did not listen to the advice. He crawled on the back of the light butterfly¡­ Riding on the wind, he flew toward the center of the chaos. ¡°Light butterfly! Use light dizziness!¡± The light butterfly¡¯s wings flashed with a dazzling light, causing all the beefalos in the camp to slow down. However, they soon regained their mobility. It seemed that this herd of cattle were at least above the light butterfly, which meant that they had reached level four! ¡°Iris! Use [ spider web ] to control them!¡± ¡°Xiao Ying! Use [ multiple shadow strikes ] !¡± The combination skill of the spider and the wolf was his most commonly used skill. It was also the skill he used to defeat the entire Class A. However¡­ Although this skill was effective, there were too many of them. There was even a tendency for it to spread to the sheep pen next door. If this demonized mad cow disease infected the sheep next door as well¡­ The consequences would be unimaginable. Fang Yuan immediately ordered the light butterfly to descend. He landed on the ground and leaned against the sheep pen behind him. If he defended this place, there was still a chance of survival. Under his feet were countless injured people whose organs had been severely injured. Someone cried out, ¡°Save me! Save Me! I¡¯m only 20 years old, I don¡¯t want to die!¡± Someone¡¯s eyes were filled with despair. ¡°My daughter is still waiting for me at home!¡± Someone directly shouted at Fang Yuan, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about us, take care of yourself. Run! Run!¡± Fang Yuan did not run. He faced the mad cattle that were charging at him. He stood up. There was no panic on his face. It was as if he was always calm and collected. He took out a blue crystal from his pocket. It was the heart of the sea that had been fully charged with the [ rechargeable pearl ] ! ¡°Heart of the sea! Use the [ firm wall ] !¡± A blue ray of light cut through the sky. Fang Yuan¡¯s body was emitting a powerful aura. It was as good as water. The rippling light emitted by the water formed an indestructible force field. It completely protected Fang Yuan and the wounded next to him. The wounded had closed their eyes. They thought that they were going to be trampled to death by the iron hooves of the mad cattle. They didn¡¯t expect that this skinny high school student had actually protected them firmly in the barrier made of water! From that moment, there was only one minute left for the barrier to last. However, one minute was enough to do a lot of things. ¡°Come out! Wind chime beast!¡± ¡°Come out! Titan bear!¡± ¡°Wind chime beast, use [ noise ] ! Titan bear! [ Mount Tai pressure ] !¡± A clear bell sound was heard. A crack suddenly appeared in the void, and a huge bear that was dozens of meters tall broke through the void and came out. It was not a mountain, but more like a mountain! Compared to such a huge bear¡­ the beefalos which were huge were actually like ants! The Titan bear seemed to be playing around. It sat in the middle of the herd. The large number of herd fell to the ground and died instantly! ¡°Titan bear! Use [ meat bomb collision ] !¡± As soon as it finished speaking, the four limbs of the Titan bear curled up, as hard as an iron ball, and shot forward. Where the iron ball rolled, not a single blade of grass grew, and the demonized mad cattle all died with mournful cries. When it rolled to the side of the entire military camp, the chaos had already calmed down. In the entire military camp, more than 500 beefalos were actually completely annihilated under such an impact! The Titan bear rolled forward a few more times. Then, as if nothing had happened, it lay flat on the ground and fell into a deep sleep on the battlefield! Fang Yuan then put it into the grandmaster¡¯s gem. Once he was done, he left, hiding his achievements and fame. Chapter 39 ¡°We¡­ we really won. We won! The border town was saved!¡± ¡°I survived? I survived!¡± ¡°Who saved me? It was Fang Yuan, student Fang Yuan. Thank you, thank you so much. You are my benefactor!¡± ¡°Long live Fang Yuan! Long live my benefactor!¡± Those who had fallen at the front of the battlefield and those who were retreating to the back, all of them surrounded the center of the battlefield. They surrounded Fang Yuan tightly. The reinforcements brought by Instructor He Liwei had just arrived. Seeing the flames of war flying, they thought that they were all wiped out, but they heard the continuous cheers of victory! ¡°What? It was Fang Yuan who saved all of you? ¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! That¡¯s right!¡± Soon, Instructor He Liwei understood the whole situation. He took a deep breath and found it hard to believe that Fang Yuan could defeat all five hundred demonized mad cattle by himself! It was so terrifying! He Liwei looked around and asked the wounded and the onlookers, ¡°So, how did this kid Fang Yuan do it?¡± ¡°He summoned a mountain!¡± ¡°What? A mountain!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s a majestic pet beast as high as a mountain. The moment it appeared, it suppressed all the mad cattle!¡± ¡°No! That¡¯s not a mountain, it¡¯s a big iron ball that could roll around!¡± ¡°All the mad cattle were wiped out by it.¡± ¡°Yeah! It¡¯s so powerful! I¡¯ve never seen such a powerful pet beast! It¡¯s like a god!¡± He Liwei was stunned. He even suspected that these people had not woken up from the fear of the battlefield! Why were they talking in their sleep? One moment it was a mountain, one moment it was an iron ball, and another it was god. It was ridiculous! It was better to look out for Fang Yuan and ask him personally. ¡°Alright, alright, let¡¯s not talk about this for now. All the injured people, bring them to the field hospital for treatment. Those who are seriously injured, go to the operating table first!¡± He Liwei gave the order, ¡°Also, where is Fang Yuan? where is he?¡± ¡°Oh right. Fang Yuan, everyone please look for Fang Yuan!¡± ¡°Uh, it seems he has left the military camp just now.¡± ¡°He has left?!¡± ¡­ Early in the morning, the sun had already risen. Eastern Warzone, Military Region Headquarters. A white-haired old man who was hale and hearty was seated in the head seat with a serious expression. Behind him was a strategic map of the Eastern Warzone. The old man¡¯s name was Chu Xiuyao, the commander of the Eastern Warzone. His old arms were muscular, and even though he was in a high position, he was getting older. He was still like an ordinary soldier, maintaining high-intensity physical training. There was no one in the entire army who was not convinced by him. Chu Xiuyao¡¯s finger pointed at the location of the border town on the map. The moment the signal flare of the border town was lit, the headquarters received the news that the city wall had fallen. Sitting beside him, a man and a woman were frowning. The male staff officer, Xu Youjing, said, ¡°Commander Chu!¡±! The current situation was very bad. The border town had been invaded by monsters, and they had broken through from the inside. The symptoms of demonization were contagious. It was only a matter of time before the whole town fell. We should give up on the border town with a smaller population now. We should mobilize all our forces to protect Chuxin City. To protect the lives and safety of the 600,000 people on the city line!¡± The female staff officer Zhang Wanyue said, ¡°No! The 600,000 people in Chuxin City are ordinary people, but aren¡¯t the 60,000 people in the border town ordinary people as well? The border town is the camp for the third year high school students¡¯ freshman military training. They are the hope of the future! Save the Children!¡± ¡°We lose more than we gain and it¡¯s not worthy. If we rush to rescue them now, we will only put our reinforcements in a difficult situation. Our military strength is not endless. Every soldier is used on the blade. We must let them bring out the greatest value!¡± ¡°Since we have already received the news at the first moment, we should seize the opportunity to resolve the urgent situation in border town before the situation reaches the worst stage!¡± ¡°Zhang Wanyue, you are too kind!¡± ¡°Xu Youjing, you are cold and heartless!¡± The differences between the staff officers also represented the differences in the entire army. After learning of the crisis in the border town, everyone¡¯s attitude was divided into two factions. One faction was represented by Xu Youjing, who hoped that all the troops would gather at one place to defend the safety of Chuxin City. The other faction was represented by Zhang Wanyue, who requested to save the border town. ¡°Enough!¡± Chu Xiuyao¡¯s hand slammed heavily on the table, and the two staff officers around him instantly quieted down. ¡°First, ensure that the communication with the border town is smooth. The army will move toward Chuxin City. Among them, a small team will send scouts to the border town to confirm the situation. If there is a chance to save them, we will do our best to save them!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Just as Chu Xiuyao decided on his strategy. A long sound came from outside the tent, ¡°Report ¨C¡± ¡°Who is it?¡± ¡°Border town military training instructor, He Liwei.¡± ¡°Quick! Report him in!¡± Instructor He Liwei came into the tent and was shocked by the people standing around him. Usually, the staff officers of the headquarters were already high and mighty figures. Now that everyone in the army, including Chu Xiuyao himself, was overseeing the army, the atmosphere was extremely tense. ¡°Comrade He! Please report in detail the current situation of the border town, the number of casualties, and the possibility of rescue!¡± Chu Xiuyao stood up and walked straight to He Liwei¡¯s side. He was obviously very concerned. The border town was not only the most important place to defend the border, it was also the granary and pasture of the nearby cities. At the same time, it also took on the role of a satellite city of Chuxin City. Many important industries were also shifted to that side. If they fell into the hands of the monsters, the consequences would be unimaginable. Even a tough man like He Liwei was shocked by this scene. He even bit his tongue nervously. ¡°Report, report to Commander Chu.¡± ¡°The siege of the border town has¡­ been lifted.¡± ¡°What?¡± The entire camp was in an uproar. The two staff officers even stood up. What kind of joke was this? Just now, everyone was discussing whether the border town should bear with the pain and give up. Now, you¡¯re telling me that the situation had been resolved? It was Chu Xiuyao who quickly calmed himself down. He frowned and asked, ¡°Tell me, what happened?¡± He Liwei naturally did not dare to hide the truth. He told him the whole story, including what the crowd told him when he went to the rescue. ¡°You mean to say that he fought against more than 500 demonized mad cattle alone and saved the 60,000 people of border town?¡± After Chu Xiuyao heard it, he pondered for a long time. He took a sip of the tea on the table and slowly said, ¡°He¡¯s just a student who just advanced to grade three?¡± Chapter 40 After receiving the other party¡¯s affirmative reply, Chu Xiuyao fell silent once more. This time, the silence was longer than before. No one dared to interrupt. In fact, they were also in a state of extreme shock. Fang Yuan, a student, could actually do this? Suddenly, Chu Xiuyao¡¯s hearty laughter was heard in the air. ¡°Hahaha! Very good! He really is a young hero from ancient times! Fang Yuan, is it? I¡¯ll remember this name! The greater his ability, the greater his responsibility, the greater his contribution, and the greater his reward. This child is interesting. I want to reward him, I want to reward him heavily!¡± Chu Xiuyao opened the drawer of the table. He took out a crystal necklace wrapped in red velvet from the drawer. Everyone knew that the treasure inside was even rarer and stronger than the heart of the sea, the heart of the Scarlet Flame! The built-in skill, the flaming dragon, could be said to be the best among single-target skills. Moreover, as long as the trainer wore this accessory, all the contracted fire-type pet beasts would have their attack power increased by three times. It could be regarded to be extremely terrifying! ¡°Youjing, Wanyue, you guys should hurry up and handle this matter. Give our student Fang Yuan a big award. I happen to have something in my hands. I¡¯ll bring it to him as well.¡± Chu Xiuyao twirled his beard, ¡°We can¡¯t let the hero be disappointed!¡± Xu Youjing and Zhang Wanyue said in unison, ¡°Yes!¡± After saying that, Commander Chu nodded. With a smile on his face, he left in satisfaction. ¡°Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan, interesting, really interesting!¡± The commander left the headquarters. However, the meeting hadn¡¯t ended yet because Chu Xiuyao had already given them instructions which he repeated it twice. ¡°Everyone should understand what commander Chu means, right?¡± ¡°We want to reward Fang Yuan handsomely! We want to give him a big award! If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to share.¡± ¡°I heard that his family¡¯s background isn¡¯t too good. Why don¡¯t we just give him a monetary reward?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve investigated just now. Fang Yuan is a commoner and he lives in the lower city district of Chuxin City. The infrastructure is rather poor. Why don¡¯t the military arrange for him to have a house in the upper city district for his family?¡± ¡°I feel that it¡¯s a little unrefined. Let the city council arrange to give him an honorary citizen recognition. What do you think?¡± ¡°Only children will make choices. Adults want everything. All your suggestions are good. Let¡¯s make all Fang Yuan¡¯s rewards. He¡¯s not on the battlefield, but he could lend a hand. This shows that he has a benevolent heart. He was able to defeat hundreds of demonized mad bulls by himself. This is his outstanding ability. Such a person is the young hero that the military wants. Saving 60,000 civilians and protecting the border town means stabilizing the entire eastern warzone. It¡¯s not an exaggeration to give him any great credit!¡± ¡­ The Military Region Command was in an uproar over what kind of reward to give to Fang Yuan. And at this moment, Fang Yuan, due to the sudden change, he had ended the freshman military training early. He had just returned to his home in Chuxin City. His mother hugged him tightly the moment she saw him. The television in the living room was still reporting the news of the border town¡¯s fall. As expected, his mother was worried about him. Fang Yuan hugged his mother tightly and said softly, ¡°Mom, I¡¯m fine.¡± ¡°It¡¯s good that you¡¯re safe, it¡¯s good that you¡¯re safe.¡± His mother only repeated this sentence and did not let go. All of a sudden, the scene on the television changed and the emcee began to recite the news announcement. ¡°Next, we are interrupting to broadcast an urgent news.¡± ¡°The eastern military command has informed us that the demonized mad cow riot in the border town has been suppressed and quelled. Please do not worry.¡± ¡°In ten minutes, there will be a commendation ceremony for the young comrades who have received important rewards for this battle.¡± ¡°The ceremony will be broadcasted at the same time on all channels in the city. Welcome to watch the ceremony.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mother was a little stunned at first. Not long ago, they received news that the border town had been invaded by monsters, and more than five hundred demonized mad cows were wreaking havoc. Now it was over? It was over? There was even going to be a commendation conference? What kind of godly efficiency was this! ¡°Looks like the country has become stronger.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mother sighed, ¡°We have to thank the officers and soldiers on the front line for their hard work. I don¡¯t know who made a great contribution in the military region, and they are even holding a commendation conference. They are really great heroes. They are too amazing. You have to learn from them.¡± ¡°Got it, Mom.¡± Fang Yuan smiled bitterly. Very soon, the television program started. Chu Xiuyao stood on the stage. ¡°My friends, everyone should already know about the crisis in the border town¡­ at such a difficult time, a hero stood out in the battlefield filled with flames. His actions can be said to be a role model for our generation.¡± ¡°Therefore, I, Chu Xiuyao, stand here on behalf of all the military officers in the Eastern Warzone, and all the citizens in the Eastern Warzone, I would like to express my highest respect and sincere gratitude to this hero.¡± ¡°I would like to solemnly read his name here. It was he who saved everyone. His name is Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°Student Fang Yuan from Chuxin City¡¯s The First High School, senior third year Class A! Thank you for everything you¡¯ve done for everyone.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mother could not take her eyes off him. ¡°Did you hear that, Xiao Yuan? You must be grateful that you¡¯re able to return safely. Learn more from this hero. This hero¡­ what? Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°The hero is actually my son?!¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mother suddenly stared fiercely at the name on the screen. Confirmation after confirmation, that¡¯s right, it was indeed Fang Yuan. She was so happy that she cried. ¡°Hahahaha, as expected of my son!¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Mom, calm down, calm down. This old man is so naggy, he hasn¡¯t said what the reward is yet.¡± ¡­ The award ceremony was set, and Mr. Fang Yuan was awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of Chuxin City. A pet relic [ heart of Scarlet Flame ] , a villa in the upper city district, and a 100 million yuan honorary citizen award. At the same time, the television program was promoting his giant bear pet, the Titan Bear. Many different well-known experts and scholars had all kinds of guesses about the Titan Bear. It also made Fang Yuan realize the problem. Just like what was said before, each pet had its own unique position. Now, Fang Yuan had an offensive pet, a control pet, and a support pet, but he seemed to lack a more useful defensive pet. Of course, the Titan Bear was strong enough, but it would be too much of a waste to send it to a regular pet battle. And the Titan Bear¡¯s biggest problem was it liked to sleep too much. Most of the time, it would not even listen to the trainer¡¯s orders and would sleep soundly on the battlefield. This would be troublesome, and not flexible enough. It could only be used as a last resort, but it was not suitable to be used as a pet beast that stayed by his side. He had to find a defensive pet beast as a replacement as soon as possible. Of course, he could go to the arcane realm to capture it. However, because of the Honorary Citizen Award and Fang Yuan happened to receive a large sum of money, he wanted to solve the problem of balancing the team system in the fastest way. So he decided to go to the pet shop to buy a defensive pet. ¡°Welcome.¡± The staff of the pet shop smiled and bowed slightly to Fang Yuan in greeting him. Chapter 41 - The Iron Gryphon Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio This was the largest pet shop in the city, with all kinds of pets. Fang Yuan looked around for a while, then smiled and said, ¡°Do you have any strong defensive pets in your shop?¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if it¡¯s a little more expensive,¡± Fang Yuan could not help add on. At this time, Fang Yuan was holding the 100 million honorary citizen prize money in his arms. His mood was drifting, so he naturally spoke with a firm tone. The shop assistant saw that Fang Yuan was dressed in ordinary clothes, and she did not expect him to be a rich man. The smile on her face slowly became thicker. ¡°Sir, please follow me.¡± The shop assistant put on a very standard etiquette posture and led Fang Yuan into the depths of the pet shop. Along the way, Fang Yuan saw many pet eggs that had not yet hatched, as well as pet beasts that had already hatched. Among them, there were some precious and rare pet beasts, as well as the defensive type pet beasts that he wanted. However, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t think much of these pet beasts. ¡°Sir, the pet shelves here have the most expensive and best pet beasts in our shop, all of which have already hatched.¡± ¡°If you need a defensive type pet beast, then I recommend you to choose the lazy boar, the blue cat Barbie, and the Iron Gryphon.¡± ¡°You can look at the pet tag in front of the counter for specific information. It clearly records all the information that you might want to know.¡± The shop assistant¡¯s voice was fluent, and she professionally introduced Fang Yuan to the few sleeping pets in front of him, which were quite huge. Fang Yuan¡¯s gaze swept past the three pets one by one. The first was the lazy bristled pig and it was directly excluded. There was already an unreliable slacker among his pets. If another one came, he would not be able to withstand it. The second was the blue cat Barbie. Her overall strength was not bad, but she was a little rebellious and did not like to obey orders. This could also be excluded. Lastly, it was the Iron Gryphon¡­ [ Positioning: Defense, control. ] [ Skills: Flying feather, gale, kicking sand, glare. ] [ Flying feather: Quickly shoots out feathers, causing fatal damage to the opponent¡¯s weak points, increases the effect of ground-type pet beasts by 100% . ] [ Gale: Flaps its wings and creates a violent storm, causing the opponent to be temporarily stunned, unable to attack for 10 seconds. ] [ Personality: Loyal. ] [ ¡­ ] It¡¯s coming, it¡¯s coming! This¡¯s the one! Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes gradually brightened up. The iron gryphon retracted its metallic wings, allowing others to feel its sharpness. The iron rod beneath the iron claws was filled with dents. It was obvious that it was responsible for this. And this was an immature iron gryphon. The gryphon that dominated the heavens had an incredibly strong defense. It was an eagle-type freak. Fang Yuan had his eyes set on this huge creature that had yet to mature. Thinking about it, if the iron gryphon was strengthened by the hundred times amplification system, what kind of changes would it undergo? Fang Yuan¡¯s heart instantly burned with passion. Wasn¡¯t this the defense-type pet that he had always dreamed of? It had an extraordinary physique and an extremely loyal personality! If he kept this pet, it would just make up for the gap in his pet lineup. Moreover, it was such a big one, even if he released it without doing anything, it would still be able to scare people! Therefore, Fang Yuan hurriedly asked, ¡°Shop assistant, what¡¯s the background of this iron gryphon?¡± The shop assistant answered clearly, ¡°This iron gryphon was left behind by the gryphon team back then. There were only two of them in total.¡± ¡°This one is very strong, but it has some flaws. It¡¯s not the best, and the better one has already been bought by a VIP in the underground colosseum.¡± Fang Yuan nodded repeatedly after listening, and then his face gradually became a little stiff. This iron gryphon undoubtedly won his heart. However, he ignored the most important point that he would never ignore normally, and it was very easy to ignore now. That was the price! This d*mn iron gryphon actually cost 110 million! In other words, the 100 million that he brought was not enough to buy it! ¡°Well, good sister, I like this pet very much. Can you give me a cheaper price?¡± Fang Yuan suddenly said embarrassedly, ¡°Yes, it¡¯s very good, but it¡¯s too expensive.¡± At this moment, Fang Yuan was completely different from when he had just entered the shop. He was no longer in firm tone. The shop assistant looked at Fang Yuan who had changed greatly. She felt that this young man was handsome she smiled and said, ¡°Then, on account of how handsome you are, I can give you a discount of 100,000 yuan.¡± When Fang Yuan heard this, he was very puzzled. This was only a discount of 100,000 yuan. If he wanted to buy the iron gryphon, it was still far from enough! Therefore, he could only thicken his skin and ask again, ¡°Good sister, can you give me some more discount?¡± ¡°May I ask how much more money do you need to buy it?¡± The shop assistant¡¯s pretty face was still wearing a gentle smile as she asked softly. Fang Yuan replied helplessly, ¡°Not much, just 10 million.¡± The shop assistant revealed a professional smile. ¡°Sir, I¡¯m really sorry. I¡¯m just an ordinary shop assistant. I can¡¯t make the decision to give you more discounts. If you want, I can ask our shop owner to talk to you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t trouble yourself. I¡¯ll go out and get some money myself.¡± Fang Yuan waved his hand. After thanking her, he rejected the shop assistant¡¯s kind offer. This was not a polite exchange of words in a shopping mall. Fang Yuan really wanted to get some money. However, if he wanted to go through proper channels to earn money honestly, it was naturally too late. Therefore, Fang Yuan recalled the ¡°underground colosseum¡± that the shop assistant had mentioned just now. That place was said to be a good place to make money. Perhaps he could also try his luck there. ¡­ After putting on the mask and making many turns, he passed through the heavy security and entered the extremely noisy underground colosseum. Whether it was the audience or the contestants, the people here always had boundless energy. They wished they could stay in the colosseum twenty-four hours a day and watch the bloody battle in detail. Especially in the outer venues, the smell of all kinds of pet beasts¡¯ fur, sweat, and the unpleasant lingering smell of tobacco and alcohol. Fang Yuan felt his nose was very uncomfortable, so he put on the black mask that he always carried with him. It also happened to have the effect of concealing his identity. He quickly found the manager of the underground colosseum. Chapter 42 - First battle, Forest Ape Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°I want to go on stage.¡± Standing in front of the thin manager, Fang Yuan¡¯s hand flashed with a silver light. The silver-quality pet¡¯s light suddenly lit up. It was the best way to show its strength. Sure enough, when the manager saw the silver light, his attitude immediately became official. His shriveled face squeezed out a smile. ¡°Okay, may I know your name? Of course, if you don¡¯t want to be in the limelight, you can give yourself a nickname.¡± Having a silver-quality pet beast, although it was still not enough to meet the threshold of a big shot, it was not something that a manager like him could offend. The steward¡¯s waist had unconsciously bent a little. Fang Yuan recalled and remembered there was indeed such a thing. All the contestants who entered the underground colosseum, in order to avoid publicity or to attract the revenge of their enemies, would usually give themselves a nickname as the code name for this place. Fang Yuan frowned and thought about it. He remembered a famous author he liked very much in his previous life, so he used that domineering pen name. ¡°Call me Sweep the Horizon!¡± ¡°That¡¯s a good name! It¡¯s very impressive, Sweep the Horizon!. Sir, please wait a moment, I¡¯ll arrange for you to go on stage immediately. It won¡¯t take more than half an hour at most. What do you think?¡± Fang Yuan nodded and turned to sit on a chair at the side. He raised his head and looked at the underground colosseum. Needless to say, it was quite big. It occupied at least 2,000 square meters. In the middle was a huge arena. The edges of the arena were equipped with various protective measures. The battle between pet beasts had caused quite a stir. The audience was almost all ordinary people who liked exciting shows. They did not lack money. When it came to strength, they could only laugh. At this moment, a pair of low-grade bronze pet beasts were fighting fiercely on the stage. They were naturally in full swing, going all out. However, in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes, who had gone through countless battles, he just wanted to sleep. It was too boring. The skills that the bronze pet beasts could use were only a few, and it was just a few moves back and forth. Fang Yuan was someone who had seen the scene before. Now, watching a battle at this level, he felt like he was watching a child playing game. It was boring. ¡°Sir, you can go on stage now. Your opponent is called the one-eyed monkey. The pet beast you have is the forest ape. It¡¯s a low-grade silver pet.¡± The manager came over at an unknown time. Fang Yuan looked at the stage. The two bronze-grade pet beasts were pecking each other. However, their battle was not over yet. He looked at the manager in confusion. ¡°Silver-grade pet beasts do not fight here. This place can not withstand the destruction of people of your level, sir. There is a battlefield specially prepared for silver-grade pet beasts. Please follow me.¡± Fang Yuan followed the manager down the elevator to the bottom fifteen floors. He took a glance and found that the lowest floor was the bottom fifteen floors. It seemed to be the highest level of the colosseum. Walking out of the elevator, Fang Yuan had to restrain his contempt. The private rooms were like metal cans hanging on the roof of this floor, which was nearly fifteen meters high. There were not many private rooms. Those who could enter this place were obviously rich or noble. Fang Yuan was sizing up the arena. As Fang Yuan¡¯s opponent, one-eyed monkey was sizing him up. At this moment, a well-dressed middle-aged man walked onto the stage. First, he saluted the high and mighty private rooms. Then, he looked at Fang Yuan and the one-eyed monkey and saluted. ¡°Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to the Silverman Colosseum. Next, I will introduce the contestants from both sides.¡± After saying that, he turned around and looked at Fang Yuan, pointing in his direction. ¡°The powerful contestant who has a silver-quality pet, Sweep the Horizon, according to the information of our Silverman Colosseum, the pet that sweep the horizon has is at least silver-quality!¡± After the introduction, the imposing manner was so majestic that it was almost like a battle declaration by the middle-aged host. Fang Yuan could not help but sigh. No wonder he could be sent to this place. A buzzing sound came from the colosseum. Fang Yuan looked in the direction of the sound and realized that there was a huge loudspeaker at the bottom of each box. It was completely embedded in the bottom of the box. One would not be able to see it if one did not look carefully. This loudspeaker was clearly used for the conversation of the people in the box. Fang Yuan could vaguely understand a few sentences. The words ¡°bet¡±, ¡°lose¡±, and ¡°win¡± were frequently used. Obviously, this place was not as simple as for beast battle only. The playstyle that came along with it was the highlight of the beast battle arena. With the existence of the bet, the passionate battle, together with the high stakes, it was definitely the most attractive combination. Under the mask, Fang Yuan could not help but smile, but no one could see his evil smile. ¡°The owner of the high-grade silver pet beast Forest Ape, the one-eyed monkey contestant, has an 80% chance of winning in the Silverman Battle Beast Arena. He has participated in a total of 70 battles. This means that the one-eyed monkey contestant has already won 56 battles!¡± ¡°It is worth noting that every single enemy of the one-eyed monkey has not been able to enjoy the joy of battle. This is all because of the one-eyed monkey¡¯s combat style, which is overwhelming!¡± As if it was cooperating with the middle-aged host, the one-eyed monkey released his pet beast at the right time. A silver light flashed and disappeared. It was as if there was an additional wall in the colosseum! Fang Yuan raised his head and looked up at the forest ape. Its height was not inferior to that of the Titan Bear. The only difference was that the Titan Bear was not only terrifyingly tall, but also had a tendency to develop horizontally. In comparison, the forest ape seemed a little ¡°thin and weak.¡±. Fang Yuan beckoned to the steward who had brought him here. When the manager ran over, he asked in a low voice, ¡°Um, can I place a bet?¡± The manager revealed a knowing smile, ¡°Yes, but Lord Sweep the Horizon, according to the rules of the venue, in order to prevent the contestants from deliberately going easy on you, you can only bet on your own victory, and the bet is only 1:1.2. Are you confirmed to place a bet?¡± Chapter 43 - Take 100 Million, Bet on Me Winning Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Of course, there¡¯s 100 million in here. Go and bet on me winning.¡± 100 million? The manager¡¯s eyes widened, not daring to reach out to take the card Fang Yuan handed over. ¡°What are you still standing there for? Go!¡± Being questioned by Fang Yuan, only then did the manager come back to his senses, but the shock of 100 million still lingered on his face. The big shots in the private room were only playing with a few million, or tens of millions of lottery tickets. Unlike Fang Yuan, he had 100 million right off the bet. If he already had 100 million, why would he still fight to the death on stage? With doubts in his heart, the manager¡¯s attitude became even more respectful, ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, if you bet 100 million, you will be able to get 120 million after you win.¡± 120 million? Although it was not a lot, it was enough to buy the iron gryphon. Fang Yuan settled the bet. On the other side, under the passionate introduction of the middle-aged host, the big shots in the box had also chosen their favorite person. Looking up at the huge screen, Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes. He was not favored at all. All the bets were placed on the one-eyed monkey, so even though Fang Yuan put a hundred million on himself, he was not able to raise the odds. The smile on Fang Yuan¡¯s face under the mask became even more radiant. This was good. Later on, he would be able to take them all in one go, and it would be even better for him to eat alone. The middle-aged host left the stage. The atmosphere became extremely tense. The tall forest ape¡¯s hair stood on end, and its blood-red eyes gave off an imposing aura. On the other side, Fang Yuan stood there alone. His thin figure had no aura at all. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the outcome. However¡­ ¡°Come out, Iris Spider King!¡± ¡°Iris, spider web!¡± ¡°Swift!¡± ¡°Poisonous fangs!¡± An indiscernible golden light flashed and disappeared. The Petite Iris swiftly and accurately completed Fang Yuan¡¯s series of commands. The entire process only took three to five seconds. However, in this fatal three to five seconds, the huge forest ape had already fallen to the ground, foaming at the mouth. At this moment, the miserable forest ape no longer had any trace of the imposing manner from before. Everyone was dumbfounded by this result. Such a large silver pet beast, and it was even a high-tier silver pet beast, was it¡­ gone just like that? Fang Yuan caught the Iris that came back and looked in all directions with a smile. It was a pity that he was wearing a mask. Otherwise, he would have looked even more elegant at this moment. ¡°Can we announce the results now?¡± Seeing that the Colosseum was silent, the middle-aged host held the microphone and was ready to explain the battle between the pet beasts passionately. He had been brewing his emotions for a long time, but in the end, he saw this¡­ ¡°How is this possible! Is your colosseum playing tricks?!¡± A furious question came out from the box marked No. 10, pointing directly at the Silverman Colosseum. ¡°Yeah, what kind of battle is this? It¡¯s over in the blink of an eye. If it weren¡¯t for the pet beast lying on the ground, I wouldn¡¯t even know who won and who lost.¡± ¡°This is too strong. A silver high-grade pet beast with no ability to fight back. What kind of pet beast is that?¡± Exclamations came from his ears, and Fang Yuan thought to himself, ¡°I¡¯ve played too much.¡± He shouldn¡¯t have played like this. He still wanted to win a few more matches. Now, who would dare to fight with him? If he didn¡¯t, how could he earn money? Just as Fang Yuan was worrying, the middle-aged host recovered from his shock. ¡°Contestant Sweep the Horizon won with lightning speed!¡± ¡°Let us congratulate contestant Sweep the Horizon and obtain the prize money to end the one-eyed monkey contestant!¡± This was definitely the most aggrieved battle that the middle-aged host had ever narrated. According to the rules of their Colosseum, both sides needed to be evenly matched. That meant that the two contestants would fight so hard that it would be difficult for them to separate. The battle would be tangled up. As the host, he would only have the opportunity to show off through narrating. However, Fang Yuan¡¯s match was good. In the blink of an eye, the battle ended, and he was lonely. Right now, the only thing that could make the middle-aged host endure was good manners, even if he was cursing in his stomach. The people of the colosseum moved the frothing forest ape off the stage. Taking advantage of this time, the manager came to Fang Yuan with a face full of admiration and gratitude. He respectfully handed over a silver card and said obsequiously, ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, this is your card. There is 120 million in it. You can check it at any time. The Colosseum can provide the corresponding equipment.¡± Fang Yuan took the silver card and smiled. He could not help but sigh inwardly. Sure enough, it was easy for pet trainers to earn money. However, on second thought, the smile on his face gradually froze when he thought about the price of 110 million for the Iron Gryphon. It was easy to earn money, but it was also very easy for him to spend money. ¡°Why are you so happy? Did you pick up any money?¡± Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t help but ask when he saw the manager beside him couldn¡¯t stop smiling. ¡°I indeed picked up the money. Of course, it¡¯s all thanks to you, Sir.¡± What did that have to do with me? Facing Fang Yuan¡¯s puzzled gaze, the manager simply explained the matter. It turned out that Fang Yuan¡¯s 100 million bet had given the manager an opportunity to grit his teeth and follow up, earning a small profit of one million. No wonder he was so happy. Fang Yuan shook his head helplessly. This could be considered a fool¡¯s luck. Even if he did not understand Fang Yuan, he still dared to follow ¡°Can I still go on stage next?¡± Chapter 44 - Encounter with Bloody Hand Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan had underestimated the battle arena. Even though he had defeated the silver high grade forest ape with overwhelming force, the arena did not stop him from continuing to fight. He did not know how the arena explained this to the VIP in the private room. Fang Yuan soon received a notification for the second battle. Perhaps because he had benefited from Fang Yuan, the skinny manager attended to him even more attentively. ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, your next opponent is called Bloody Hand. He has a silver pinnacle grade pet beast, mantis exterminator. I heard that it has three skills, and one of them is the void shadow slash. It¡¯s really very powerful!¡± Seeing that Fang Yuan had won the first round smoothly, the skinny manager came over with good intentions and reminded him of the risks of the second round. ¡°Please don¡¯t look down on Bloody Hand. His mantis exterminator looks like it¡¯s only at the peak of silver grade. In fact, with its ability, it can completely deal with a pet beast that has just entered gold low grade!¡± Cross-grade battle? Even though Fang Yuan had the confidence to win, he was interested. ¡°The Bloody Hand that you mentioned, has he really defeated a gold grade pet beast?¡± ¡°This¡­ I didn¡¯t see it with my own eyes. It¡¯s just that the people in the colosseum say so. In short, Bloody Hand is definitely not an ordinary player. Sir, please be careful.¡± In order to be able to follow Fang Yuan and earn money, the manager had been very concerned. Fortunately, with his earnest reminder, Fang Yuan really became interested and more careful. Not long after, Fang Yuan¡¯s opponent entered the arena. He was wearing a white training suit, and he had slender limbs and sharp eyes. As expected, he was not a player to be underestimated. Fang Yuan frowned and looked past Bloody Hand to the three-meter-tall shadow behind him. This was the mantis exterminator. [ Scientific name: Mantis exterminator ] [ Bloodline: Void ] [ Rarity: Silver Pinnacle Grade (number of failed advancement: 1) ] [ Level: 4¡­ ] Void bloodline? And there was such a thing as failed advancement? No wonder it was said that Bloody Hand had once defeated a gold grade pet trainer in the colosseum. It seemed that there was a story behind its failed advancement. ¡°The title Bloody Hand, a silver pinnacle grade pet, a battle genius who had once competed with a gold grade pet. He was the creator of victory, a battle artist who single-handedly won 30 consecutive victories!¡± The passionate commentary once again descended. The middle-aged host only hoped that the commentary this time would not end in one sentence like n the previous battle. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would lose this high pay job. ¡°Mantis exterminator, possessing an extremely rare void bloodline, advancing to the highest level, and even entering the void, a super assassin who can deliver a fatal blow to the enemy in the Void!¡± In the loudspeaker at the bottom of the private room, discussions continued. Fang Yuan vaguely heard a few voices that seemed a little familiar, but he could not recall them, so he simply stopped thinking about them. Paying attention to the content of the conversations in the loudspeaker, Fang Yuan hoped that they could place bets on bloody hand. This way, Fang Yuan could bet on himself to win, and he would be able to make a fortune. ¡°They actually let bloody hand come out. The power of the Silverman Colosseum is really great. I wonder if the payout rate can be raised a little. If it is still the same as before, giving a zero point something amount would be meaningless.¡± ¡°This time, I want to bet more and win back what I lost just now.¡± ¡°Just wait for the odds. It¡¯s not easy for bloody hand to come out once. It¡¯s purely giving money away, haha.¡± After listening to a few discussions, Fang Yuan noted he did not have a high chance of winning in the eyes of the people in the private room. That was really great. Turning his head and looking at the manager, Fang Yuan said with a smile, ¡°Go and help me bet on all my wins just now.¡± The manager¡¯s face turned green instantly. He widened his eyes and opened his mouth as wide as he could, but he could not say anything. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Seeing that the manager did not move, Fang Yuan could not help but frown. He should not delay him from earning money. In order to become a powerful pet trainer, Fang Yuan needed a lot of money. If he could earn a little, he would earn a little. After all, there were not many opportunities to make a fortune. ¡°No¡­ Sweep the lord, this¡­¡± ¡°Sweep the lord, that is a bloody hand. Let¡¯s be more cautious. If we bet everything, this bet is too big. If we are not careful¡­¡± It was another bet of more than 100 million. Such a crazy move that all the assets had to bet on was enough to give the manager a heart attack. Who could withstand it for another round? ¡°Don¡¯t be long-winded. Just do as I say. By the way, you¡¯d better play a little, too.¡± Fang Yuan had received a lot of information from the manager. He did not mind bringing him along to earn a little money. It was best if he did not use his own money. Fang Yuan felt that he was also playing quite well. The manager left with a lot of things on his mind. The odds of the Silverman Colosseum had also been also calculated. With Fang Yuan¡¯s large amount of money, the odds were not satisfactory for Fang Yuan. It was only 1.1 times the odds. However, with the mentality that if he could earn a little, he would earn a little, Fang Yuan did not mind. In the vast colosseum, Fang Yuan and blood hand stood a hundred meters apart. Compared to blood hand¡¯s refined attire and the strange and fierce mantis exterminator behind him, Fang Yuan¡¯s side appeared a little weak. No, it should be said it was very weak. Mantis exterminator, this kind of pet beast, Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes flashed with a fiery glow. Fighting with this kind of assassin pet beast, it should be very exciting, right? ¡°The two contestants are in position, the match is about to begin¡­¡± ¡°Three!¡± ¡°Two!¡± ¡°One¡­ Start!¡± Before the middle-aged host finished his words, Bloody Hand took the lead and roared, ¡°Mantis Exterminator, boost illusion!¡± The angry roar was still echoing. Bloody hand and mantis exterminator cooperated well, one man and one beast, and they sprinted towards Fang Yuan¡¯s left and right sides! Seeing that bloody hand was running wildly while commanding the mantis exterminator, not forgetting to constantly buff himself and his pet beasts with various buffs, Fang Yuan naturally could not fall behind. ¡°Come out, Iris Spider King!¡± ¡°Iris Spider King, buff agility!¡± ¡°Nine o¡¯clock direction, spider web!¡± To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. Suddenly, a huge net with a diameter of five to six meters appeared on bloody hand¡¯s head. The densely packed net came at him from all directions. The strength of this spider web was as strong as steel! A raging wave rose in Bloody Hand¡¯s heart. His sharp eyes suddenly turned into puzzlement. It can¡¯t be? Why could he summon his pet beast so quickly? Why was his pet beast¡¯s release skills so strong? He had a hundred thousand questions in his heart. Bloody Hand had no choice but to suppress himself and dodge sideways. However, would Fang Yuan let him dodge the spider web so easily? It was obviously impossible. After Fang Yuan summoned the iris spider king, he did not attack immediately. Instead, he first blessed the iris spider king with the agility halo. He had been waiting for this moment! ¡°Not good! It¡¯s too fast! I can¡¯t block it at all!¡± Despair appeared in Blood Hand¡¯s eyes as he dodged to the side. His brain had turned into mush amidst the raging waves. How could this be? Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes and a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of his mouth under the mask. As expected, a pet trainer who had not experienced the battlefield of the arcane realm with a hundred times amplification was still far from having the actual combat experience. Chapter 45 - The Mystery of Identity Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Bloody Hand stared at his mortal enemy on the road of escape. One side was the iris spider king, and the other side was Fang Yuan who was buffed! Bloody Hand had fallen into a dead end in the first exchange! The battle between the two sides had not lasted more than ten seconds. What made Bloody Hand even more desperate was that he felt that his tactics had been crushed. All his plans had become useless. And his enemy, swept the world. Worthy of this domineering name! He had killed him with a single move! Not only the quality of his pet, the level of his pet, even his battle strategy was not as brilliant as Fang Yuan¡¯s. Bloody Hand looked at the mantis exterminator that he was famous for. On the other side of the spider web, it was firmly trapped, unable to help him at all. He was defeated, completely defeated. Before he fell into the spider web, Bloody Hand had already accepted his defeat. Sensing the huge difference in levels between the two, it was not difficult to accept defeat. Being wrapped in the spider web, the current Bloody Hand, even if it was just a child¡¯s pencil sharpener, could kill him. However, Bloody Hand was not worried about his situation at all. His expression changed from anger to fear, and then from fear to fanaticism. He stared at Fang Yuan with a burning gaze of reverence. Even though Fang Yuan was wearing a black mask. He seemed to be scalded by such a burning gaze. Fang Yuan could not help but frown. He did not wait for him to ask. ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, your strength is far greater than mine! Please take me as your disciple and teach me the way to defeat in battle!¡± Bloody Hand¡¯s voice was very loud, and everyone in the entire colosseum could hear it. The colosseum became extremely noisy with a wave of denunciations. ¡°What are you doing? Just this? Just this Bloody Hand?¡± ¡°You guys didn¡¯t get someone to impersonate Bloody Hand, did you? It¡¯s over so easily? Or is it a crushing defeat?¡± ¡°When the manager of the Silverman Colosseum comes out, he must give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, this matter isn¡¯t over, Your Silverman Colosseum shouldn¡¯t continue to operate!¡± The angry questioning did not affect Bloody Hand at all. His eyes were still burning with desire, even hotter than before. Fang Yuan had a headache watching this. What was going on? He had come to the Colosseum to earn some money, but the opponent was lying on the ground and wanted to acknowledge him as his master? If he could not win, he could join. Fang Yuan¡¯s mind was a little numb. He simply did not look at Bloody Hand. He raised his head to look at the middle-aged host. At this moment, the corner of the middle-aged host¡¯s mouth kept twitching. He had improved a little compared to the previous match. He had narrated two sentences in total, and the two sentences were all about Bloody Hand. Bloody Hand and mantis exterminator had made a move, but Bloody Hand and mantis exterminator¡­ were gone! Furthermore, Bloody Hand wanted to acknowledge him as his master? Fang Yuan was not the only one whose mind was in a mess. Most of the people were confused. What was this? Was this an act? ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, you have 132 million in your card!¡± The manager¡¯s smile was reluctant, and his heart was bleeding. Fang Yuan could tell from his expression that this person did not take his advice. He definitely did not bet on him to win. He might even have bet on Blood Hand. Fang Yuan only wanted to say that he had brought this upon himself. Who was to blame if he could not even get the money that he could have picked up for free? The Bloody Hand who had been clamoring to become his disciple was quickly dragged down. The manager sought Fang Yuan¡¯s opinion and the next battle continued. He won five consecutive victories and then ten. Fang Yuan could be said to have earned enough money to fill his pockets. He had earned a few tens of millions. He had even earned half of the iron gryphon. The tenth battle ended. The manager walked forward with trepidation. He looked at Fang Yuan as if he was looking at a monster. There was almost no time for rest in between the ten consecutive battles. If he was not a monster, how could he have such abundant physical strength? After that, Fang Yuan¡¯s battles ended at an extremely fast speed. This made the manager feel even more awe. After all, the battles that followed were all gold grade pet beasts! ¡°When Sweep the Horizon spoke just now, I felt that this voice was very familiar. However, I can¡¯t remember where I heard it before.¡± Just as Fang Yuan was smilingly calculating the small amount of money that he had earned today¡­ This sentence came from private room No. 6. Fang Yuan¡¯s smile froze, and his heart skipped a beat. He had a bad premonition. Wait, you had seen me before. When? Could it be that he was exposed so quickly? No! After all, as a student, it was not in line with the school¡¯s regulations for Fang Yuan to participate in battles in the underground Colosseum to earn money. ¡°I seem to have the same feeling. I vaguely remember hearing it at some large-scale event.¡± ¡°It seems to be at the auction?¡± ¡°Oh yes! Now I know!¡± ¡°I remember, too. I went to that auction with my dad.¡± ¡°Yes, yes, yes, it¡¯s him. D*mn, no wonder I lost the whole night!¡± In private room No.6, one of the aristocratic family members who had participated in the pet trade fair, Lin Jiaxi, was holding a glass of red wine and standing there in a daze. It was as if his entire body had been struck by lightning, and he was extremely stiff. ¡°Brother Lin, who was the person you were talking about just now?¡± Lin Jiaxi¡¯s subordinate couldn¡¯t help but ask since he had stopped halfway through. Lin Jiaxi came back to his senses and immediately turned off the loudspeaker, revealing a cunning smile on his face. This series of actions made his subordinates even more stupefied. They looked at Lin Jiaxi in a daze, hoping that he would say something to solve their doubts. ¡°Ahem.¡± Looking at the eager eyes of the underlings, Lin Jiaxi cleared his throat and sat upright. ¡°That Sweep the Horizon is very likely someone I met at a high-end auction. He made a series of moves at the auction¡­¡± ¡°Hiss¡­¡± halfway through his sentence, Lin Jiaxi thought of the scene at the auction and the key to some things. He slapped his thigh and said, ¡°Sweep the Horizon definitely has a hidden card. The pet beast that appeared now is just one of his chips!¡± ¡°Oh my god, if that¡¯s the case, Sweep the Horizon must win. Then what¡¯s the point?¡± One of Lin Jiaxi¡¯s underlings immediately shouted. He was a little disappointed, but then he couldn¡¯t help but fantasize. If a big shot like Sweep the Horizon, who was recognized by Lin Jiaxi, were to reveal his trump card, then the battle would definitely be very interesting. More importantly, they could also use some money to gamble a few rounds. Maybe they could even earn some extra money. ¡°Of course it¡¯s interesting. The old man at home always says that we¡¯re losing money. Now is the opportunity. Let¡¯s see if you can seize it.¡± ¡°Looking at Sweep the Horizon, there¡¯s still a battle to fight.¡± The smile on Lin Jiaxi¡¯s face grew wider and wider. The hand holding the goblet couldn¡¯t help but shake. Obviously he had already seen the ¡°path of money.¡±. However, could Lin Jiaxi¡¯s plan be so simple? In private room No. 7, the loudspeaker had been turned off. The conversation was almost the same as Lin Jiaxi and the others. It was the same in private room No. 9. More than half of the 24 private rooms were repeating the same conversation¡­ After careful selection, Fang Yuan¡¯s 11th opponent was selected. He was Chen Jin, a gold high grade contestant, and his pet was golden light wolf. [ Scientific name: Golden Light Wolf ] [ Bloodline: gold, light ] A dual-bloodline hybrid, a classic example of a successful mutation. If he only used the iris spider king, Fang Yuan might not be able to take down his opponent. However, the battle in the Colosseum did not prohibit the summoning of multiple pet beasts. After all, it was not easy to tame a pet beast. Most pet trainers did not have the energy or the financial resources to nurture multiple pet beasts. One had to know that a silver grade pet beast required a huge amount of resources. A gold grade pet beast was like a den of gold coins. Without sufficient financial resources and energy, it was a thankless task to train multiple pet beasts. It was not as effective to train up a powerful pet beast. Fang Yuan looked at his opponent in this battle and felt a little strange. It was quite normal for him to fight ten consecutive battles. Could it be that this Chen Jin in front of him was really something different? Chapter 46 - Businessman, Fang Yuan Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The middle-aged host, who had gone through ten rounds of destruction, was still trying his best to save his career. He forced himself to be energetic and passionately introduced Chen Jin¡¯s various past. Chen Jin was also a ruthless person. He was ranked in the top ten among the underground Colosseum¡¯s contestants, and his fighting style was even more brutal and violent. Each of his opponents did not end up well. The middle-aged host only introduced Chen Jin. On Fang Yuan¡¯s side, in a simple sentence, he was the winner of the ten consecutive victories. If it was possible, the middle-aged host did not even want to introduce Fang Yuan. ¡°The battle¡­ begins!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s take a look at contestant Chen Jin¡¯s side first. Oh? Contestant Chen Jin did not summon his pet golden light wolf at the first moment. Could it be that this is the fighting method invented by Chen Jin?¡± ¡°Contestant Chen Jin is starting to move forward. His speed isn¡¯t fast. He¡¯s preparing to use his power to force Sweep the Horizon to make a move first. It¡¯s completely different from the previous ten contestants. Will contestant Chen Jin succeed this time¡­ ?¡± The passionate middle-aged host was stuck. He looked at the two people on the stage with a dull gaze, especially Chen Jin. That gaze wished that it could burn two holes on Chen Jin¡¯s body! Chen Jin smiled bitterly and raised both his hands, trying his best to show that he was harmless. ¡°Mr. Sweep the Horizon, I admit defeat.¡± How could this be? The iris spider king was already ready. Even the titan bear was prepared to go out for a walk under Fang Yuan¡¯s promise, to guarantee Fang Yuan¡¯s victory. But this was the result? ¡°What¡¯s going on? What¡¯s this about admitting defeat?¡± ¡°The Silverman Colosseum is getting worse and worse. The players who surrender first can go on stage. In the future, it¡¯ll be better for the players to play rock-paper-scissors. At least, it¡¯ll be better than surrendering.¡± ¡°Mr. Sweep the Horizon is really too strong. Even the Golden Light Wolf doesn¡¯t have the courage to fight. I wonder if Mr. Sweep the Horizon is interested in chatting?¡± Most of the sarcastic words were directed at the Silverman Colosseum. No matter what, Chen Jin was still a trainer who had a gold grade pet. Offending such a person for no reason, the second generation of each family would not be so stupid. Of course, if they were really that stupid, they would have been dealt with by their families long ago. The corner of Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. Indeed, the bad feeling just now was real. If Chen Jin directly surrendered, then probably no one would accept a one-on-one combat style. In the Colosseum, other than one-on-one battles, there were several other types of battles. For example, a battle between a pet beast and a pet beast. The trainer would not participate in it. If it was a battle between a trainer and a trainer, the trainer would not be allowed to summon a pet beast. Right now, Fang Yuan did not have a one-on-one opponent. There was only one way to keep Fang Yuan on the stage. The attrition battle. It was even more intense than the previous ten battles. Not to mention the in-between interval, at Fang Yuan¡¯s side, once the trainer was placed on the stage, the next player would jump onto the stage in the next second. Without any information, he would just have to rush over, and if he did not, he would lose. Fang Yuan secretly calculated that in the following battles, his opponent would have a gold grade pet at the very least. In this way, the strength that had been revealed would not be enough to hold the situation. It might even require all of his methods to be used. Exposing all of his methods in this kind of situation where everyone was watching, Fang Yuan instinctively felt conflicted. The methods and various cooperation of a trainer were confidential. Once it was exposed, unless the trainer had overwhelming strength, even God would not be able to withstand it after thousands times of studies. ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, do you still want to accept the attrition battle?¡± The manager walked over with trepidation. He never straightened his back and tried his best to show a respectful attitude. ¡°I accept.¡± After hesitating for a while, Fang Yuan made a decision. The manager even forgot the prestige that the consecutive victories had bestowed on Fang Yuan. He raised his head, his eyes filled with doubt. The pet beast trainer¡¯s rejection of the attrition battle was deeply rooted in people¡¯s hearts. Those who were not strong enough could not reach this stage, and those who were strong did not want to be thoroughly studied. ¡°Lord Sweep the World, you¡­ you really want to accept the attrition battle? The rules of the attrition battle¡­¡± Fang Yuan waved his hand. ¡°Alright, I know the rules. You can go and report it. I want to participate in the attrition battle. Go over and let the Colosseum inform the contestant, so that I can have contestants to fight with.¡± The manager walked on in a daze. As he had received the news that Fang Yuan was participating in the attrition battle, the middle-aged host, who had regained his vitality, walked out, ¡°The Silverman Colosseum has already sought the opinion of the contestant Sweep the Horizon. The contestant Sweep the Horizon has applied¡­¡± ¡°¡­ attrition battle!¡± The last two words came out of the middle-aged host¡¯s mouth in a loud roar. The Colosseum suddenly paused, and then it became extremely noisy. The attrition battle began in an orderly manner. From this, one could see the strength of the silver men in attrition battle. In just ten minutes, Fang Yuan¡¯s opponents had a total of 20 players in position. 20 players with gold grade pet beasts gathered in a short period of time. They could not reach the level of a top-tier clan, so they could not be so exaggerating. After asking Fang Yuan about his preparation time, Fang Yuan rejected. In fact, this time was for Fang Yuan to adjust his condition to the best. After all, he had just gone through ten battles. He needed to rest and replenish his energy to deal with the attrition battle in his best condition. This was the best choice. Unfortunately, Fang Yuan gave up. Hearing the news, several snickering sounds could be heard from dozens of meters away. It was clearly intentional. The battle soon began. Fang Yuan used the iris spider king and a few other skills consecutively. With his unpredictable coordination and consecutive victories, he had won five consecutive victories in the blink of an eye! The middle-aged host wiped the sweat off his forehead. The essence of the commentator had been put aside for the time being. He practiced and urged the staff of the Colosseum to contact more players. According to Fang Yuan¡¯s speed, these 20 players were obviously not enough for him. He had never seen such a strong person! There was no gap in the middle of the five consecutive battles, and his movements did not seem to be laborious! With fifteen consecutive victories in hand, Fang Yuan was not a god after all, nor was he an iron man with unlimited energy. Facing this kind of player who took turns to fight, his spirit, energy, and spirit were also being consumed bit by bit. What really made Fang Yuan tired was that the enemies had already figured out the skills of the iris spider king, and their battle methods were clearly seen by them. If the battle continued, the iris spider king alone would not be enough. Moreover, pet beasts would also be tired. Although the iris spider king did not receive much damage, the small wounds on its body were numerous. It was the warrior at the forefront of the charge. As the sixteenth opponent fell out of the arena, Fang Yuan did not wait for the next player to go on stage. He raised his hand and said, ¡°I admit defeat. I won¡¯t fight the next battle.¡± The arena was filled with exclamations. No one had expected Fang Yuan to choose to give up at this time. Fang Yuan only had a few small wounds on his body. No matter how one looked at it, it did not seem like he had reached his limit. Chapter 47 - Poison First, Detoxify Later Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°No way. I¡¯m about to defeat him. How can he admit defeat now?¡± The players at the back were not happy. Fang Yuan admitting defeat at this time meant that after the attrition battles, he was already exhausted. If he went on stage and defeated a person who had won more than ten rounds in a row, wouldn¡¯t his reputation be greatly boosted? He did not want to miss such a great opportunity! ¡°Yeah, isn¡¯t it too much to admit defeat?¡± ¡°Come on, let¡¯s continue fighting. One who admits defeat is not a man. Come out, let¡¯s fight!¡± ¡°Do you really think that you can be shameless just by covering your face?¡± ¡°Come on, let¡¯s continue fighting!¡± The clamor in his ears was incessant. Rays of light flashed from their pets, and at the same time, they actually released their pets. They couldn¡¯t wait to have a fight with Fang Yuan. But wasn¡¯t this courting death? The Silverman Colosseum had its own rules. In the course of the attrition battle, if the initiating party won more than half of the total challenge, he could take the initiative to admit defeat and request to end the battle. Now, Fang Yuan had challenged 30 trainers in the attrition battle, and he had already defeated 16, this way, it was neither a win nor a loss. It was a draw. According to the procedure, the pet trainers who did not participate in the battle needed to go up and shake hands with Fang Yuan. The pet beasts also needed to express their feelings to each other in a simple manner. Due to the rules in place, the opponents only dared to shout, but they did not dare to really go up and look for trouble. Behind the mask, Fang Yuan¡¯s smile became more and more radiant. The more he looked at them, the more he thought they¡¯re cute. They all looked like pennies. Not only was he not upset, he went up and shook hands with all the other players who kept shouting. The iris spider king had also made friendly contact with his opponents¡¯ pets. It turned out¡­ That¡¯s because he had it all figured out. In the previous training sessions, the iris spider king¡¯s venom ability has been greatly improved by killing a large number of demonized rats. Now, it could be said that pet beasts below platinum grade could do nothing against the iris spider king¡¯s venom. Perhaps the venom would not cause a fatal effect on the pet beast, and it would not be able to directly kill the opponent. However, this debuff was like a halo of negative emotions that persisted, like a dark cloud hovering above the pet beast¡¯s head! Fang Yuan waved his hand and asked the manager to come over. ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, this card of yours, including your bet and the commission from the fight, now it has a total of 153 million. Please check.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan simply nodded. ¡°No need to check. Oh yes, when they look for me later, remember to tell them that I¡¯m in the alley behind the Colosseum.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± The manager was at a loss and could not understand what it¡¯s all about. Looking at Fang Yuan¡¯s back, he wanted to chase after him and ask a few questions. However, due to the presence of those pet trainers who were still clamoring, he did not dare to be too intimate with Fang Yuan. Behind the Silverman Colosseum, in the alley. Fang Yuan was playing with the small silver card, waiting calmly for another small sum of money to come to him. ¡°How much should I charge? They are all gold grade pet trainers, they must be very rich. Ten million each. Is it too expensive?¡± ¡°It should be about time now, right?¡± In the trainer¡¯s lounge in the Colosseum, the usually quiet lounge was very noisy. There were a total of thirty trainers gathering together, so much so that this lounge, which was more than 100 square meters, seemed a little packed. ¡°If I had known earlier, I would have been in the front row. I just happened to have a stomachache, so I went to the toilet. In the end, that so-called Sweep the Horizon admitted defeat. What a killjoy!¡± ¡°Were you in the toilet then?¡± The tone used could not hide the disdain in it. Clearly, he had wanted to hide when he saw that he could not win. Now, Fang Yuan admitted defeat, and he was putting on an act. Without waiting for the other party to refute, the person continued, ¡°Why not? I was standing in line and I was about to be next. I think that Sweep the Horizon was afraid of me. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that he just happened to admit defeat at a certain point in time?¡± ¡°Sweep the World? He shouted his name so arrogantly, but he still lost¡­¡± As the person was shouting, he heard a painful howl from behind him. He turned around and saw that his pet¡¯s forehead had already turned green. It was obvious that he had been poisoned. ¡°Hey, that¡¯s not right. Snow Cold White Bear, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°What¡¯s going on¡­ Spiky Head Turtle, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± ¡°Something¡¯s wrong with my Spirit Horn Rhino, too!¡± Exclamations sounded one after another, each more anxious than the other. The mutual dependence between a pet trainer and a pet beast was not just a simple matter. A pet beast was the foundation of a pet trainer. Right now, their base, their foundation, had problems. They were so anxious that they were about to jump off a building. The group of beast tamers soon found the reason. ¡°It must be the work of the iris spider king!¡± To be able to do such a thing to such extent, it was only that d*mned Sweep the Horizon! However, Sweep the Horizon had already left, just when the trainers were dumbfounded. The manager who was passing by was caught in the crossfire. He was surrounded by more than thirty pet trainers. Moreover, they were trainers who owned gold grade pets. The manager was almost scared out of his wits. Fortunately, he could recalled what Sweep the Horizon had said. He immediately shouted, ¡°In the alley behind the colosseum. He said he was in the alley behind the colosseum!¡± More than 30 trainers disappeared in the blink of an eye. Only the manager was left in a mess. His mind was a mess and he did not understand what had happened. ¡°They¡¯re here. So slow.¡± Fang Yuan pursed his lips. According to his deduction, the poison he had gotten the iris spider king to poison had already acted up. These trainers had come too slowly. They definitely did not look for the manager immediately. Not only were they not strong, their brains did not seem to be too good either. After silently defining the group of victims, the cynicism on Fang Yuan¡¯s face disappeared. More than 30 trainers had come at once. He needed to be able to control the situation. Otherwise, forget about getting paid, it would be good enough if he didn¡¯t get beaten up. ¡°It¡¯s him. Sweep the Horizon. Hurry up and hand over the antidote!¡± ¡°Everyone, come at him together. Beat him up first!¡± ¡°Hand over the antidote and I¡¯ll spare your life!¡± There was a mess of everything, but the person who wanted to beat him up didn¡¯t lead by example to be the first to step forward. It seemed that his consecutive victories in the colosseum had some deterrent effect. At least, they did not immediately surround and gang up on him. ¡°Don¡¯t make noise. Do you still want to save your pet?¡± Fang Yuan stomped, jumped onto the wall and said slowly from a high vantage point. The scene immediately froze. No one had expected Fang Yuan to be so strong. There were more than 30 people on their side. Even if you were strong, you would not be able to withstand so many people ganging up on you, right! However, they had never fought with each other in the previous round of battles. Furthermore, their pets were poisoned. They were at a disadvantage. No one dared to go forward. ¡°One by one, pay ten million. Then release your pet. I¡¯ll treat them.¡± The 30 trainers looked at each other. No one knew what to do. Poison first, then detoxify? D*mn it. This was extortion! Seeing that the other party was so angry that they were going to fight to the death. Fang Yuan looked down from above and said faintly again, ¡°Don¡¯t forget that your pet beasts don¡¯t have much fighting strength now. Think carefully before you attack. Otherwise, you¡¯ll have to pay twice as much if you get beaten up later.¡± The courage that they had just gathered was instantly destroyed. Fang Yuan¡¯s words hit their sore spot. Almost every trainer here trained a pet beast individually. If the only pet beast was killed by Fang Yuan, their fighting power would be reduced by 60-70% without their pet beasts. Even if they ganged up, they didn¡¯t seem to be able to defeat him. They were desperate. ¡°Sweep the Horizon, don¡¯t go too far¡­ uh, I just want to ask, is it all of us to gather 10 million?¡± The golden light behind Fang Yuan faded, and the iris spider king slowly disappeared. Its threatening gaze became friendly. ¡°Of course¡­ not, ten million each.¡± ¡°Ah? Lord Sweep the Horizon, I don¡¯t have that much. If we had ten million, we wouldn¡¯t have to fool around in the underground Colosseum anymore.¡± ¡°Your request is too high. We can¡¯t afford it.¡± ¡°Yeah, I really can¡¯t afford ten million. Lord, you know that raising pets costs a lot of money. We don¡¯t have any savings, so we really can¡¯t afford ten million.¡± All of them cried out with great enthusiasm. However, Fang Yuan could also see that they were all poor people. The dream of ten million per person disappeared in the blink of an eye. He couldn¡¯t help but feel dispirited. Chapter 48 - This Person Is a Devil Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Although they could not see Fang Yuan¡¯s entire face, his eyes were enough to show his dissatisfaction. His sharp gaze seemed to have a faint killing intent and was full of intimidation. More than 30 trainers with more than 30 gold-grade pet beasts were all tensed up. Some of them were even lamenting in their hearts. When did their gold-grade pet beasts training fall to such a state. But now, more than 30 trainers were like fish meat, and Fang Yuan was the chef with the knife. He could strike the knife however he wanted. ¡°Then how much money do you have?¡± ¡°That¡­ 100,000?¡± ¡°Huh?¡± The trainers¡¯ eyes widened, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Looking at the one who said 100,000, he couldn¡¯t help but curse in his heart. How could he say 100,000? He really embarrassed the golden pet trainers. ¡°Lord Sweep the Horizon, I only have one million¡­ is that alright?¡± For a moment, most of the trainers nodded. Although this amount would make their hearts ache, it wasn¡¯t to the extent that they couldn¡¯t afford it. Of course, they would need to go to the colosseum more often. The golden trainer didn¡¯t have any spare money. One million, Fang yuan nodded reluctantly, ¡°Alright, one million each person. Pay up.¡± He reached out his hand and happily collected the money. In order to collect the money, Fang Yuan even found a small-scale money detector in a nearby shop. It was really comprehensive. 32 million in hand. Under the watchful eyes of these trainers, Fang Yuan skillfully used his hand. In fact, he summoned the iris spider king to absorb the poison from the pet beast¡­ ¡°Sir, why is the spiky head turtle still listless? Please confirm it. Maybe something went wrong?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s lips curled up as he laughed in his heart. There were indeed dishonest people who were in such a hurry to let their pet beast recover its combat strength. However, Fang Yuan was not stupid. Although he had received money to treat the pet beast¡¯s illness, it was naturally impossible r him to completely cure it. Otherwise, wouldn¡¯t he be surrounded and beaten up by these angry fellows? ¡°Human needs to rest for a period of time after a serious illness. I don¡¯t know where your pet beast has been contaminated with poison. Although it has been treated by me now, it still needs some time to recuperate before it can fully recover. At most three days, I guarantee that it will be a lively turtle again.¡± ¡°¡­ This is the spiky head turtle, it has the black tortoise bloodline.¡± No matter what bloodline it had, their pet had not fully recovered its combat ability. Some people who were secretly waiting to rob Fang Yuan could only give up and take this note in their hearts. Fang Yuan did not mind this at all. With this kind of trash, they could only hide in the rear. Trainers who did not even dare to go to the arcane realm were worthless even if they grew up. They would only show off in the rear of the human race and contribute nothing to the human race, taking their money would be considered as giving them face. At the very least, Fang Yuan would take the money to strengthen himself and then go to the arcane realm to massacre everyone. He waved his hand to send the last ¡®customer¡¯ away. Fang Yuan happily calculated the small amount of money in his hand. 185 million. He became rich in one go. After struggling for an entire day, he was able to buy¡­ Alright, after struggling for an entire day, he was barely able to buy an iron gryphon. However, Fang Yuan was satisfied enough. After a day, it was more than 80 million. He didn¡¯t even dare to think of it in the past, but this kind of business wouldn¡¯t last long. The Silverman Colosseum would definitely be on guard. When he thought about how this business couldn¡¯t continue in the future, Fang Yuan felt a slight headache. Although 180 million wasn¡¯t a problem to buy an iron gryphon, it wasn¡¯t something that could be directly converted into combat power just by buying an iron gryphon. In the later stages, the iron gryphon still needed to use a lot of resources. The remaining money was probably not enough. How could this work? He had to do it again. Fang Yuan thought for a moment, turned around, and walked into the colosseum again. Seeing Sweep the Horizon once again, the manager¡¯s expression was very ugly. Even though he had earned a lot by following this lord, the colosseum was almost turned upside down by this lord. If this lord continued, it would be a problem whether the colosseum could still be operating! ¡°Sir, you¡­ Why are you back?¡± The manager was trembling in fear. He had to carefully consider every word he said. This person was not easy to get along with. He was powerful and his methods were strange. Those over 30 gold trainers could not even win in front of him. A small figure like him¡­ it was better to be careful. ¡°The rules did not say that you can not repeat the competition, right? Go and make some arrangements. I want to continue on the stage. one-on-one, attrition battle, group battle, anything Is fine.¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s bold words, the corner of the manager¡¯s mouth kept twitching. Without thinking, he knew that this lord was preparing to replicate what had just happened. It was already embarrassing enough to have such a thing happen once. Now, he wanted to replicate it again. was this really not aimed at their Silverman Colosseum? The manager was in a dilemma. He stood there respectfully, but he did not know how to respond. Fang Yuan lowered his head and looked at the manager with a frown. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Can¡¯t I go on stage?¡± Of course not. However, the word ¡°no¡± only lingered in his heart and he didn¡¯t dare to say it out loud. ¡°Sir, please wait a moment. I¡¯ll go down and make the arrangements right away.¡± The manager placed Fang Yuan in the luxurious living room and turned around to walk to the back of the Silverman Colosseum. He was in a dilemma and looked for the boss. Naturally, the manager was not the only one who saw Fang Yuan in the colosseum. The group of people who had just paid the ¡°treatment fees¡± were still there. Seeing the familiar outfit of Sweep the Horizon, some people subconsciously rubbed their eyes and confirmed several times that it was true! Immediately, cries of grief filled the air. They had just lost a large sum of money and were thinking of recovering it from the colosseum. But now that the d*mn world-sweeping had appeared again, they did not even have the courage to register. It was acceptable to lose, but after losing, they had to accept the exploitation of the other party. This kind of thing was absolutely unacceptable, especially when they had no money in their pockets! When the time came, if they could not pay the ¡°treatment fees,¡± who knew when their pet would recover? They could not afford to play anymore! At the same time, in the slightly dimly lit office, the atmosphere was thick and heavy at the same time, giving people a gloomy feeling. On the big boss chair, a ¡°meat mountain¡± was lying there. Fortunately, this boss¡¯s chair was specially made and increased by one size. Otherwise, this ¡°meat mountain¡± would not be able to sit down at all. From the moment the manager entered the door, he did not even dare to raise his head. He fearfully recounted everything that had happened in the colosseum in detail. After he finished speaking, he did not dare to ask. He lowered his head and waited silently. He looked at his toes, and the sweat on his forehead fell on the carpet. After waiting for a long time, a deep voice sounded. ¡°Interesting. I¡¯ll go and meet him.¡± Looking at the manager who was standing in front of him and did not dare to move, the boss of the colosseum, Yue Shan, waved his hand. The fat on his body formed a ¡°wave¡±. ¡°Go down and bring him to colosseum No. 9.¡± After receiving Yue Shan¡¯s approval, the manager then only dared to bow and leave. Facing Yue Shan, he slowly backed out of the depressing office. Colosseum No.9. The preparations for the battle had been completed. Fang Yuan looked at the huge iron cage in front of him and frowned. ¡°What does this mean? Do you want me to fight in here?¡± Chapter 49 - The Boss Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Standing behind Fang Yuan, the steward forced a smile. ¡°Sir, this is an order from our boss. He wants to see you. Please wait here for a moment. The boss will be here soon.¡± As Fang Yuan turned back to look at the steward, he shifted his gaze back to the huge iron cage. He was full of contempt in his heart. This boss of the Yinhan Colosseum was too stingy. It was obvious that he didn¡¯t want Fang Yuan to continue earning money. The Colosseum had earned so much, yet the boss actually did not want him to earn even such a small amount of money. That was just acceptable! Fang Yuan wondered what kind of person the boss of the Yinhan Colosseum would be. He waited silently, calculating what kind of attitude he would have to face the other party later. ¡°Boss, this is Super Powerful, the contestant who registered today.¡± Hearing the manager¡¯s respectful introduction behind him, Fang Yuan turned around. When he saw the boss of the Colosseum, he almost could not help but exclaim in surprise. Was this even a person? This was a miniature version of the Titan Bear. If he slightly changed his race, perhaps the owner of the Colosseum was even bigger than the Titan Bear! When he stood up, he was at least 1.9 meters tall. He was not really burly, but he was quite a good match. His neck couldn¡¯t be seen, and his arms were more than twice as thick as Fang Yuan¡¯s thighs! When he took a step forward, the fat on his body set off waves. It even gave Fang Yuan the illusion of an earthquake. ¡°You are Super Powerful.¡± While Fang Yuan was looking at Yue Shan, Yue Shan was also looking at Fang Yuan. Yue Shan loathed troublesome people who messed up the Colosseum by themselves. Those who hindered him from making money could be classified as enemies. A few years ago, Yue Shan would not even want to see Fang Yuan. He would have directly ordered his subordinates to throw the troublemakers into the sea to feed the sharks. In the past few years, the management had been strict. The Yinhan Colosseum had no choice but to restrain its arrogance. Yue Shan that gradually hid behind the scenes and would not normally appear in front of others. ¡°It¡¯s me. Why are you looking for me? I¡¯m still waiting to go on stage to earn money.¡± As expected, Yue Shan¡¯s wrinkled face was now scrunched up. This brought a sense of humor to his dignity. Fang Yuan did not find it funny at all. Yue Shan gave him a lot of pressure, which was much scarier than when he was facing more than thirty trainers! Yue Shan had definitely killed people before, and he had also been to higher-level secret realms. He was even considered a regular visitor in secret realms. Fang Yuan could feel the imposing manner that came from fighting a big group of enemies. This was not something that a trainer who was enjoying peace at the back could have. ¡°It¡¯s okay if you want to fight. Let¡¯s have a fight. As long as you beat me, you can continue to fight. If you lose, you shall never appear in the Colosseum again!¡± His voice suddenly became louder. In the basement that was over a thousand square meters, the echo arrived in an instant, which shocked everyone. It had to be said that such an aura could really daunt someone who was not as experienced as Fang Yuan. ¡°It¡¯s okay to fight, but there must be some rewards, right?¡± Yue Shan tilted his head, but unfortunately, he still¡­ had not thought about rewards. ¡°What rewards?¡± ¡°Money or resources. If there¡¯s nothing, I don¡¯t have time to play with you.¡± Yue Shan frowned even more. His flat face was full of wrinkles. No one could tell his age from his face.. ¡°Then let¡¯s bet on this.¡± A golden light then appeared behind Yue Shan, and a familiar figure appeared in front of Fang Yuan. It was not an ordinary majestic pet beast, but a fully grown iron griffin! It did not spread its wings. Just by standing there, it was almost five meters tall. Its golden feathers and retracted wingspan could still give fang yuan a strong deterrent. It told Fang Yuan all the time that this wingspan could give fang yuan a fatal threat! He immediately recalled the story that the attendant had told him in the pet shop. There were two iron griffin in total, and the one sold in the shop was a female. The other male iron griffin was bought by a big shot in the Colosseum. It must be the one in Yue Shan¡¯s hands! ¡°You used¡­ the iron griffin as a bet?¡± Fang Yuan was not sure. If the best was the iron griffin, he would be very interested and fight it with all his might. Yue Shan could see Fang Yuan¡¯s greed, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face. ¡°Are you interested?¡± ¡°Of course. Since you¡¯re using the iron griffin as a bet, then I¡­ Come out, Iris Spider King!¡± There was a gold-quality pet standing behind each of them. The attitude of both parties was self-evident. They were betting on the battle between their pet beasts! Sharp gazes met. Yue Shan had a huge body, but he could not suppress Fang Yuan¡¯s aura. A soul that had traveled between life and death could easily crush the psychological barrier of the opponent. Seeing that Fang Yuan was able to remain calm under his aura, Yue Shan¡¯s eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction. He also started to look at Fang Yuan. After receiving Yue Shan¡¯s partial approval, Fang Yuan could not help but become more interested in talking, ¡°In the past, the No. 9 Coliseum was used as a stage for a deathmatch. No matter how many people were stuffed into it or what level of trainer it was, there was only one condition to end the battle and open the cage¡ªwhen there was only one living person left inside.¡± Listening to Yue Shan¡¯s narration, the huge cage in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes seemed to have an endless amount of blood. Some of the mottled areas seemed to have accumulated many vengeful souls. ¡°The Beast Colosseum was the real Beast Colosseum back then, but now¡­ Ah, forget it, it¡¯s a place for people to play.¡± He could hear the dissatisfaction in Yue Shan¡¯s words. Since Yue Shan was not in a hurry, Fang Yuan was happy to broaden his horizons. ¡°Since you like to wander in the bloody world, why don¡¯t you go to the mystic realm? That place should be more suitable for you.¡± ¡°Hahaha¡­¡± The deep laughter hurt Fang Yuan¡¯s eardrums, and he could not help but frown. After laughing so crazily until he could not breathe, Yue Shan coughed and took a deep breath, ¡°Do you think it¡¯s so easy to explore the mystic realm? Many of my men have fallen there and could never be able to stand up!¡± So that was the case. Fang Yuan curled his lips. No matter how much he said, it was just an excuse, and he had lost the courage to enter the Mystic Realm. ¡°Let¡¯s begin. I like my prize very much.¡± As he spoke, Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were burning as he looked at the Iron Griffin behind Yue Shan. He did not hide his greed at all. The topic was forcefully changed by Fang Yuan, which infuriated Yue Shan. His plan could not continue. He was not talking to Fang Yuan because he was bored. Yue Shan had taken a liking to Fang Yuan because of his strength If Fang Yuan joined the Colosseum, there would thus be another powerful trainer. The more powerful trainers there were, the more markets they could compete for. Yinhan was not the only Underground Colosseum, so the competition was quite fierce. With anger in his heart, Yue Shan looked at Fang Yuan gloomily, then turned around and walked into the huge iron cage. Fang Yuan chuckled and followed him in. With a loud bang, the huge iron fence fell, separating the iron cage from the outside world, which created an environment for a fight to the death. The host then announced the rules, ¡°Super Powerful VS the boss of the Yinhan Colosseum! This is a one-on-one battle; fight till death. During the fight, only one pet can be changed.¡± ¡°Begin!¡±! ¡°Mountain-opening Ape! Add gravity!¡± Just as the iron gate was closed, Yue Shan¡¯s deep roar sounded, and the fight was about to start! Fang Yuan did not want to be in a weak state, so he immediately commanded loudly, ¡°Iris Spider King!¡± ¡°Come out, Titan Bear!¡± Chapter 50 - The Mature Iron Griffin Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Titan Bear, use the iron wall!¡± The huge Titan Bear¡¯s body suddenly changed. Its brown fur was instantly dyed with a cold metallic luster, making it look like a sculpture. The charging Iron Griffin was unable to attack the Titan bear with its iron wall. When it charged over a hundred yards at a high speed and crashed into the Titan bear that was as hard as iron, it shook its head, hoping that nothing would happen to it. Fang Yuan¡¯s gaze became even more fiery with this powerful defense. This was the pet beast that he wanted. It was extremely loyal and would not be like the Titan Bear. It was very strong, but it was often unwilling to listen to its master. Moreover, the Iron Griffin also possessed such excellent defense. It was truly an excellent pet beast. ¡°Iris Spider King, use the spider web!¡± Although his heart was burning with passion, Fang Yuan firmly grasped the opportunity to fight. Now that the Iron Griffin had lost its speed, what was he waiting for? As the silver spider web landed on the Iron Griffin¡¯s body, Fang Yuan¡¯s smile blossomed on his face. This battle was finally settled. ¡°Damn it! How is this possible? !¡± Yue Shan¡¯s face was extremely gloomy. He had never thought that any pet beast could withstand the impact of the Iron Griffin. In the past, with this move, he had been invincible in the underground Colosseum. Today, he had really encountered a huge challenge! ¡°Mountain-Splitting Ape, where is your blood oath slash!¡± ¡°Iris Spider King, use your poisonous fang to numb it!¡± As the pet beast started their battle, Fang Yuan and Yue Shan were also changing their positions frequently. They were eager to capture their opponent. At this moment, Fang Yuan realized that Yue Shan, who was like a mountain of meat, could also run very fast. The only thing was that the earth trembled a little as he ran. Just when Fang Yuan thought that he could end the battle in one fell swoop¡­ The Iris Spider King actually failed to accomplish its intended goal, while Yue Shan¡¯s pet, the Mountain-Splitting Ape, was already charging toward him! As it approached, Fang Yuan¡¯s body stopped, and his expression could not help but become heavier. He also knew why the Iris Spider King¡¯s fatal strike missed. Gravity! His body seemed to have been added with several invisible iron ingots, and his running speed suddenly slowed down by 30% . Fang Yuan calculated the speed of himself and the ape. He then calculated the range of the Mountain-Splitting Ape¡¯s gravity skill. ¡°Titan Bear, use the meatball impact!¡± The beast and the trainer were telepathically connected, and the Titan Bear meatball impact was actually aimed at fang yuan! Boom! ¡°Ouch!¡± With a wail, the swift Mountain-Splitting Ape was sent flying like a rag doll. It spat out blood and some unknown lumps from its mouth. The agile pet was hit by the Titan Bear. It probably relied on its gravity skill to not die on the spot. The moment it was about to hit, the pressure that Fang Yuan had been enduring suddenly reduced in intensity. Not only did it escape from the heavy pressure, but its speed had also increased by three points compared to when it was at its peak. It almost rushed over and hit the Titan Bear. The Mountain-Splitting Ape¡¯s gravity skill could be used in reverse. It was indeed a godly skill if it was used well. However, this time, it was clearly not used well. Of Yue Shan¡¯s two pet beasts, the Iron Griffin was still fighting against the spider web. The ape¡¯s aura was dispirited, so how could it still have any fighting strength? The Iris Spider King added another layer of spider web to the Iron Griffin. The Titan Bear panted heavily as it lay beside Fang Yuan. It narrowed its small eyes with a fierce glint. It was the person who was as fat as it who stopped it from sleeping. D*mn it. Looking at Yue Shan¡¯s gloomy face, Fang Yuan smiled and said, ¡°Then the winner of this battle will be me.¡± Yue Shan was very unwilling to let the winner announce the news of victory. However, he still had not figured out Fang Yuan¡¯s background. Should he keep the other party? No, the Colosseum would definitely be messed up. It might not be able to keep this strange and unpredictable person. Let the other party leave? The Iron Griffin was gone! His heart was in pain. Even as one of the owners of the Colosseum, this was a loss so painful that he could not breathe. After struggling for a long time, Fang Yuan did not seem to be in a hurry at all. He waited silently. That confident look of his made Yue Shan even more fearful. ¡°Hmph! I lost this round, but¡­¡± Fang Yuan raised his head and shifted his gaze from the Iron Griffin to Yue Shan¡¯s face. ¡°The Colosseum is not a place where you can mess around. This time, I¡¯ll give you face. The next time you come to the Colosseum to cause trouble, what will greet you will not be so simple.¡± After saying that, he could not bear Fang Yuan¡¯s reaction and turned around to leave. Fang Yuan smiled because he sensed that the connection between Yue Shan and the Iron Griffin was broken. In other words, the Iron Griffin was now an independent pet beast. It could also be said to be a wild pet beast. The Iron Griffin¡¯s struggle was no longer as intense. Its sharp eyes were looking at Fang Yuan. Its eyes were full of vigilance. Fang Yuan frowned but did not receive the system notification. ¡°System, please initiate the identification mode.¡± [Scientific Name: Iron Griffin] [Bloodline: Griffin] [Rarity: Gold High-Grade] [Attribute: Eagle, iron, wind] [Defense: Guarding, charging] [Skills: 1.

Under the glare of the Griffin, it can suppress all flying beasts whose bloodline level is lower. Additional 100% making the opponent scared. ] Looking at the detailed introduction of the Iron Griffin, Fang Yuan cried out in alarm. Just now, the Iron Griffin did not have time to display all sorts of magical abilities before it was caught in the web of the Iris Spider King. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve victory without suffering a full body of injuries. Speaking of which, Yue Shan did not expect Fang Yuan to have a titan bear that could withstand the charging charge of the Iron Griffin. The quick decision made Yue Shan lose the battle in one fell swoop. The Iron Griffin was wrapped in a dense spider web. It lay on the ground with its head slightly raised, its height exactly the same as Fang Yuan¡¯s. Walking to the front of the Iron Griffin, it revealed an amiable look and said gently, ¡°You can follow me from now on. I¡¯ll show you more beautiful scenery and soar above the enemy¡¯s head, displaying the demeanor of a King Griffin!¡± The Iron Gryphon¡¯s eyes were obviously moved, and Fang Yuan was delighted. ¡°Nirvana!¡± Under the sharp piercing sound, Fang Yuan took a few steps back. His head was still buzzing, and there was a warm stream of blood in his ears! Wiping the blood from his ears, Fang Yuan looked up at the Iron Griffin again and met its eyes full of anger. He sighed in his heart that it was not that simple. [Character: Perseverance, loyalty] Unfortunately, this loyalty was not given to Fang Yuan. Chapter 51 - A Successful Evolution Potion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing that he could not deal with the Iron Griffin for the time being, Fang Yuan was not anxious, nor was he angry at the beast¡¯s stubbornness. In fact, Fang Yuan was quite satisfied with its current attitude. To be able to get the system to give him loyalty, Fang Yuan had never thought of dealing with the Iron Griffin easily. However, Fang Yuan did not let go of the slightest chance. Before he forcefully put the Iron Griffin away, he sincerely told the beast that its owner had abandoned it, and that he, Fang Yuan, would always treat it as a partner. Whether the Iron Griffin believed it or not, Fang Yuan put the Iron Griffin away and looked back at the Colosseum. He was afraid that he would not be able to come here in the future. He could not capture a colosseum even if he plucked sheep¡¯s hair, and he would have to find another one next time. While he was still on his way home, an unexpected call came in. It was from the Director of the Pet Beast Pharmacy Association, Zhao Ren. Fang Yuan and Zhao Ren had met on the second floor of the school library. At that time, they had made a deal. Fang Yuan provided the last ingredient of the formula for the evolution potion, and Zhao Ren provided Fang Yuan with the successful evolution potion. However, there were still many uncertainties in the experiment. Zhao Ren tried a few times, and each time, he said that he had a breakthrough compared to the past, but in the end, he still could not produce any results. It seemed that he had a direction this time. ¡°Hey, Dr. Zhao, have you succeeded in your research? If you still want the materials for the Titan Bear, you can save your breath. Last Time, in order to appease the Titan Bear, I had to spend a long time.¡± ¡°Hahaha, you little brat, you¡¯re so smart at such a young age.¡± The two of them gradually became familiar with each other and became old friends. Fang Yuan was also rude to Zhao Ren when he talked to him. Zhao Ren was already used to it. He thus laughed and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t ask you for the materials this time. Come to the laboratory, my research has succeeded!¡± A hearty laughter came from the microphone. Fang Yuan immediately beamed with joy. After waiting for so long, he finally saw the results. Professor Zhao Ren was awesome. ¡°I¡¯ll be right there. Wait for me for half an hour!¡± He sped up and urged the taxi driver to hurry up. ¡°Professor Zhao, where¡¯s the Evolution Medicine I asked for?¡± The moment he saw Zhao Ren, Fang Yuan consciously ignored the greetings and other procedures and went straight to the point. Zhao Ren, who was full of smiles, kept twitching his lips. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and said unhappily, ¡°The things are with me. Take your things and leave quickly, Little Brat.¡± As he said that, Professor Zhao Ren brought out a large thermos bottle. The bottle was almost half a meter tall. Fang Yuan was a little dumbfounded when he saw it. Was this the evolution medicine? Could a pet beast really withstand such a large bottle? Zhao Ren knew that Fang Yuan was thinking too much. He originally wanted to tease fang yuan, but when he saw Fang Yuan¡¯s tender face and thought about himself, who already had a bunch of white beards, he immediately dispelled this thought. ¡°The evolution medicine is stored inside. The medicine is an extremely precious thing. Keep it in the right environment at all times to prevent the evolution medicine from having an irreversible change.¡± It sounded very high and mighty. It did not matter if he did not understand it. Fang Yuan knew that it was the right time to nod his head. Zhao Ren shook his head helplessly. He opened the thermos bottle with his own hands and extended his hand into the mist that came out. He took out a small test tube. Inside the transparent test tube, there was a scarlet liquid. It was very demonic and even gave people an ominous feeling. ¡°This is the evolution medicine that you want. It is best to use it within two hours. You do not have the experience to keep such an item. Although this evolution medicine has been developed, the things that have just been developed are all understood.¡± ¡°That is because we don¡¯t know much about its habits, so I can only guarantee that the evolutionary drug will be effective within two hours. After two hours, I¡¯m not sure.¡± Fang Yuan was not interested in listening to Zhao Ren¡¯s long speech. He only paid attention to one point, and that was the duration of the evolutionary drug. Two hours. It was a little short. Carefully taking the test tube with some cold hands, Fang Yuan suddenly remembered that he had just gotten the Iron Griffin. If he used this evolution drug on the Iron Griffin, it would definitely gain the Iron Griffin¡¯s favor when it advanced to platinum-grade. Moreover, it would be the most popular type. ¡°Dr. Zhao, I have a question. Is this evolution drug effective on gold-grade pets?¡± ¡°Gold-grade pets?¡± Zhao Ren¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard that. That was because he had an extreme interest in researching all kinds of materials. He especially liked to synthesize various kinds of irrelevant materials. To be honest, with Zhao Ren¡¯s hobby, it could be considered a miracle if he didn¡¯t play himself to death. ¡°The time for the development of the evolution potion is still short. Release your pet first and I¡¯ll take a look. Maybe it will be compatible with the evolution potion.¡± Even though Zhao Ren had straightened his attitude and acted professionally, Fang Yuan still couldn¡¯t help but suspect that he had ulterior motives. However, he couldn¡¯t take away his pet when he summoned it. Therefore, Fang Yuan took a few steps back and called softly, ¡°Come out, Iron Griffin!¡± ¡°Oh, you are so charming!¡± As soon as he saw the Iron Griffon, Zhao Ren was mesmerized by its charm. If it were not for the fact that the the beast¡¯s sharp eyes were on high alert, he would have taken out his tools, he collected ¡®little¡¯ of experimental materials from the Iron Gryphon. ¡°Don¡¯t do anything reckless. The Iron Griffin doesn¡¯t obey me very well. If you annoy it, I won¡¯t be able to save you later.¡± ¡°How could I do anything reckless?¡± Zhao Ren felt a bit regretful. He looked at the metallic wingspan of the Iron Griffin with infatuation. Such iron feathers must be of great research value. ¡°Actually, I saw this griffin when it was young. I didn¡¯t expect it to be so majestic when it grew up.¡± ¡°Dr. Zhao, have you seen the Iron Griffin?¡± ¡°Of course. The Iron Griffin is the result of my classmate¡¯s research. They were originally a pair, one male and one female. Unfortunately, my classmate¡¯s research didn¡¯t have the funds to continue, otherwise, the Iron Griffin¡¯s achievements would definitely be more than that.¡± The Iron Griffin actually had such a history. Fang Yuan blinked his eyes and turned around to look at the Vigilant Iron Griffin. He didn¡¯t have the time to study the gender of this Iron Griffin. If it was a male, then finding a wife for it would definitely earn him a good impression. If it was a female, then the opposite should also be possible, right? Just as Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughts were wandering, Zhao Ren shook his head and said with a slight pity, ¡°The evolution potion doesn¡¯t have much effect on the Iron Griffin. It¡¯s better to use it on other pet beasts as it would be too wasteful to give it to the Iron Griffin.¡± Fang Yuan roughly understood that for a gold-quality pet like the Iron Griffin, the evolution potion would not be very helpful for it. There was a high probability that it wouldn¡¯t be able to improve the the beast¡¯s quality. The rosy dream was thus pricked by reality. Fortunately, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t have high expectations. He nodded and planned to escape. ¡°Fang Yuan, look at the Iron Griffin. It¡¯s the result of my classmate¡¯s laboratory. My classmate¡¯s skills are a little worse than mine. Maybe there¡¯s something that can be improved on this iron gryphon. I¡¯ll treat it as a good deed and help you check it out. What do you think?¡± As expected, there was still such a familiar scene and familiar words. No wonder he felt that something was wrong when he summoned the Iron Griffin just now. It turned out that old man Zhao had planned it long ago! Chapter 52 - Platinum-Grade Shadow Wolf! Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Under Professor Zhao Ren¡¯s regretful gaze, Fang Yuan made a phone call home on the way home. He told his mother that he had something to do at school and would not be back for ten days or even half a month. This was Fang Yuan¡¯s plan. Even if Professor Zhao Ren did not invent the evolution medicine, Fang Yuan would still leave home for a period of time. The main reason was the iron griffins, for Fang Yuan decided to buy the baby iron griffin in the pet shop. He wanted to buy the Iron Griffin because of a casual remark from Zhao Ren. Since the two iron griffins came from the same laboratory, Fang Yuan always felt that there was something fishy going on. Even if he guessed wrong, it would not be a loss. The two iron griffins were also in line with Fang Yuan¡¯s fighting style. Speaking of which, buying a small iron griffin was also a bonus. If he could find a partner or a husband or wife for the big Iron Griffin, that would be something worth celebrating, right? He made an appointment with a training room by phone. After quite a long time looking for the right route, he returned to the pet shop again. Night had already fallen. The salesgirl was cleaning up the pet shop. Seeing that it was about to close, Fang Yuan thought to himself that he was lucky. Fortunately, he came here first instead of going to the training room personally. ¡°Ah, Sir, you¡¯re back so soon.¡± The salesgirl¡¯s eyes lit up and she stepped forward to greet him. Fang Yuan was so young, but he had already amassed tens of millions in one day, which really surprised her. Fang Yuan smiled calmly. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m back. I¡¯ve also got the amount needed.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. The little Iron Griffin has found its owner. Sir, please take good care of it in the future and be more tolerant toward it.¡± ¡°Of course. It will be my pet beast from now on.¡± Under the instructions of the salesgirl, Fang Yuan finally managed to buy the little Iron Griffin. Because of his friendly attitude, the price was reduced by 150,000 yuan, which was 50,000 yuan more than the original 100,000 yuan. Everything was ready now. Fang Yuan entered the training room and nodded in satisfaction. As expected of the largest training room in the city, a single training room had nearly 300 square meters of space, which was so luxurious. There were at least a hundred kinds of equipment for pet trainers. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t recognize most of them, let alone use them. After sizing up the training room for a while, Fang Yuan put down his curiosity to continue his research. He pointed his left palm to the ground and called out softly, ¡°Come out, my partner, the Shadow Wolf!¡± The Shadow Wolf, whose shoulder height was almost as high as Fang Yuan¡¯s chest, leaned on him as soon as it came out. With such a huge wolf leaning on him, Fang Yuan realized that he was going to be in trouble. However, how could he avoid the intimacy of the Shadow Wolf, whose head kept hitting his chest? He almost spat out blood because of that brute force. ¡°Alright, there¡¯s something I need to attend to. I¡¯ve found something good for you. Behave yourself. Don¡¯t lose the treasure that I finally found.¡± He rubbed his palm on the Shadow Wolf¡¯s head a few times. It was considered that he had played with the Shadow Wolf before. He ignored the doubt in the Shadow Wolf¡¯s huge eyes and squatted down to unpack his bag. [Ding! Evolution potion detected (Inventor: Zhao Ren)] [This evolution potion is only suitable for pets below silver-quality. It can increase the strength by a large level.] [Would you like to use the enhancement points to increase the strength?] [1. The range of the 100-fold enhancement potion can be used on pets below gold-quality.] [2. The evolution strength of the 100-fold enhancement potion can increase the strength by two large grades.] Fang Yuan thought for a moment. The first enhancement method could indeed increase the strength of the gold-quality Iron Griffin. But now that the Iron Griffin had just recognized its master, its loyalty might not be guaranteed. Instead of evolving a gold-grade pet beast to the platinum grade, he was more willing to upgrade his first pet beast from the silver grade to the platinum grade. When Fang Yuan took out the test tube, the shadow wolf immediately became anxious. If the test tube was not in the hands of its master, Fang Yuan, the Shadow Wolf would have already switched to the cruel battle mode by now. ¡°Ha, you also know that this is a good thing!¡± The Shadow Wolf let out a low whine. In its eyes, there was only the test tube that contained the demonic liquid. Its front claws scratched the ground, making ear-piercing sounds, which showed the beast¡¯s eagerness. ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t tease you anymore. Prepare the Shadow Wolf. Whether you can break through successfully depends on yourself. You must try your best to hold on.¡± Although the evolutionary drug that Dr. Zhao Ren had developed would not cause any life-threatening danger to the pet, the number of benefits the pet could gain would depend on the pet¡¯s own willpower. Taking the evolutionary drug would cause the pet to feel unbearable pain all over its body. The effect of the drug needed the pet to remain awake. If during this period, the pet could not withstand the pain and fainted, the effect of the evolutionary drug would be greatly reduced, the effect might not even be able to increase a small level. After repeatedly reminding the Shadow Wolf, the beast began to express its dissatisfaction and eagerness. After sensing that it must have realized the seriousness of the matter, he poured the evolution potion into its bloody mouth. In less than three seconds, the Shadow Wolf¡¯s incomparably mournful howl sounded, and then it rolled on the ground. Its huge body was struggling on the floor as if it wanted to get rid of some trouble. Fang Yuan stared at the Shadow Wolf. The only thing he could do now was to give it confidence with his determined eyes, hoping that the shadow wolf could persevere and transform into a stronger pet beast. If the beast could not pass this hurdle, it would be difficult for it to keep up with Fang Yuan¡¯s pace in the future battles. Fang Yuan had met many gold-quality pet beast trainers now, and the its strength was too weak in comparison. He watched helplessly as the shadow wolf¡¯s beautiful fur became sparse, with blood stains on the left and right of its silver-gray fur. In less than ten minutes, the Shadow Wolf was already powerless to howl, and its thick limbs kept twitching. However, Fang Yuan was very clear that the shadow wolf was still holding on! Time passed very slowly. Fang Yuan could not remember how many times he looked at his watch, but only half an hour had passed! After half an hour of torture, the Shadow Wolf was on its last breath. Fang Yuan could not bear to look in the direction of the Shadow Wolf. He raised his head, the corners of his eyes were a little wet, and his nose was a little sore. Ten minutes ago, Fang Yuan gave the order to the Shadow Wolf to give up, but the Shadow Wolf had rejected his order for the first time. Relying on its obsession, it had held on until now! Forty minutes! Fifty minutes! One Hour! Fang Yuan had not seen any movement from the shadow wolf for five minutes. There was not even much movement in its belly. If it was not for the special bond between the pet beast and the trainer, Fang Yuan would not dare to be confirm that the Shadow Wolf was still alive! ¡°It¡¯s enough. It¡¯s really enough. Shadow Wolf, you have done so well!¡± ¡°This level is enough for you to advance to gold-grade and become my right-hand man in battle. Don¡¯t make it too hard for yourself!¡± Squatting beside the shadow wolf, Fang Yuan repeated over and over again. One hour and 31 minutes! ¡°Ding! Shadow Wolf has successfully reached the platinum grade!¡± Chapter 53 - Power-Up Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Ding! The Shadow Wolf has been successfully upgraded to the platinum grade!¡± System reward (optional) : 1. Immediately recover the injuries of the Shadow Wolf and replenish the energy dissipated during evolution! 2. Pet loyalty voucher. Choose an ownerless pet to use. This will increase the pet¡¯s loyalty to the host! ¡°I will choose the first one. I want to help the Shadow Wolf recover from its injuries!¡± Looking at the blood-stained fur of the Shadow Wolf, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart ached uncontrollably. After all, the Shadow Wolf was his first pet beast. To Fang Yuan, it had long become one of his companions. As the aura of the shadow wolf grew visibly stronger, its weak breathing quickly became thicker. Its tightly shut eyes opened, and it stared fixedly at Fang Yuan. The fierce pet beast¡¯s eyes were filled with tenderness, but Fang Yuan patted the Shadow Wolf¡¯s head in annoyance. ¡°Alright, why aren¡¯t you getting up? You can¡¯t take such a risk next time. You don¡¯t know how worried I was just now. I thought I almost lost you.¡± The Shadow Wolf stood up and whimpered twice. It lowered its head and kept pressing against Fang Yuan¡¯s chest. It took a few steps back. After advancing, the Shadow Wolf became even taller. Its shoulder height was comparable to Fang Yuan¡¯s height. Standing beside Fang Yuan, it was slightly taller than him. Not only that, the beast¡¯s originally thick limbs were now as thick as a small tree. Its claws were as big as a bowl! Its sharp claws that glowed with a silver light were more than ten centimeters long. Anyone who was scratched by such claws would sufer terribly. It would be split into two or even broken into pieces! ¡°Alright, you¡¯re already so big, yet you¡¯re still acting coquettishly¡­¡± The Shadow Wolf had successfully advanced, and its injuries had also recovered, so Fang Yuan let out a sigh of relief. Next, Fang Yuan would have to think of what to do with the two Iron Griffins. He would be very busy. ¡°Come out, Iron Griffins!¡± The Small Iron Griffins appeared on the ground. Of course, if it was not for the Shadow Wolf standing on the side, the little Iron Griffin¡¯s height of nearly one meter would definitely be considered small. The Shadow Wolf stared at the Iron Griffin, eyeing it like a tiger eyeing its prey. It did not sense Fang Yuan¡¯s aura from the Iron Griffin, for Fang Yuan still had not connected with the little Iron Griffin. ¡°Follow me, little guy. I will let you grow up and soar in the sky.¡± [Ding. Pet Beast detected: Iron Griffin, Level 2, silver grade.] [Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement?] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods:] [First, give up the 100-fold enhancement and receive a silver grade; Level 2 Iron Griffin.] [Second, receive a 100-fold enhancement and receive a gold grade; Level 2 Iron Griffin.] [Third, receive a 100-fold enhancement and receive a silver grade; Level 4 Iron Griffin.] Looking at the system options, Fang Yuan fell into hesitation. The first option was definitely to ignore it directly. The second option was to obtain a pet that could grow. The third option was to obtain battle strength immediately, but the potential for growth in the future was difficult to explain. Turning his head to look at the Shadow Wolf who was welcoming the Iron Griffin in his own way, Fang Yuan smiled and said silently, ¡°I choose the second option.¡± [Scientific Name: Iron Griffin] [Bloodline: Griffin] [Rarity: Gold grade] [Attributes: Eagle, iron, wind] [Positioning: Defense/Vanguard ] [Skills: 1. Feather, 2. Strong Wind, 3. Kicking Sand, 4. Staring Eyes ] [Personality: Perseverance, loyalty ] [Hobby: flying ] [Skill description: N/A ] [Reproduction ability: Strong ] After the enhancement, Fang Yuan felt that something was not right. The initial quality of the little griffin was too low, or the price was too expensive. A silver pet beast with a price of more than 100 million was obviously too much. After thinking about it, Fang Yuan opened up all the information about the Little Iron Griffin. After reading it carefully, he finally understood what was going on. Reproduction! It must be known that most pet beasts could only reproduce naturally in the wild. After the contract, the ability to reproduce would be weakened. Only in specialized pet breeding rooms or special environments could they reproduce. And the offspring that reproduced usually had higher quality and stronger skills than the parent¡¯s and mother¡¯s pets. Therefore, pets with strong reproductive ability were particularly popular. The price was also particularly high. If Fang Yuan had one male and one female iron gryphons. It could be said to be a perfect match. It could be said to be buying two big ones and giving away countless small ones! This money was really worth spending! After a full half a day, Fang Yuan finally withdrew from the fantasy of the Iron Griffin that filled the sky. Looking at the small Iron Griffin, Fang Yuan decided to give it a name to make it easier to distinguish. Rubbing his chin, all kinds of strange names flashed through his mind. ¡°Got it, you will be called Xiaojin from now on. Oh right, Xiaojin, are you male or female?¡± He opened the system panel again and displayed all the information. [Gender: Female] ¡°Female? Then I¡¯ll call you Xiaoyin. I¡¯ll reserve ¡®Xiaojin¡¯ for another purpose.¡± The name was thus retracted. Then, another name was imposed on it without any reason. At the same time, it was ¡®entertained¡¯ by the Shadow Wolf¡¯s warm hospitality, which he could not resist. ¡°Stop messing around. When its boyfriend comes out later, he¡¯ll have a duel with you.¡± The Shadow Wolf¡¯s front paw pressed on Xiaoyin¡¯s back. It raised its head and looked at Fang Yuan, not afraid in the slightest. Fang Yuan shook his head and lightly shouted again, ¡°Come out, Iron Griffin!¡± Just then, the enlarged version of Xiaoyin appeared. As soon as it approached, it was as if it had met its natural enemy, for its bristles instantly stood upright. Its sharp gaze immediately caught sight of the Shadow Wolf¡¯s existence. The platinum-grade Shadow Wolf posed a great threat to it, and the suppressive Force of its bloodline made the Iron Griffin feel very uncomfortable. It instinctively told it to immediately leave this place and stay away from the Shadow Wolf! The second glance was at Xiaoyin, who was under the Shadow Wolf¡¯s claws. Angered, Xiaojin¡¯s enormous wings spread open. Fortunately, Fang Yuan could already foresee this scene. He hid at the side early on and watched little gold¡¯s five-to-six-meter wingspan spread open, his heart was indescribably satisfied. If he could grow a little bigger, he would be able to ride the Iron Griffin and soar into the sky. Every man had a dream of flying, just like how every man was crazy over Gundam. Chapter 54 - Unstoppable Destruction Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Alright, stop fooling around. Shadow Wolf, go and sit down.¡± As Fang Yuan displayed the dignity of a great patriarch, the tense situation finally eased a little. Xiaojin felt his intention, so his sharp eagle eyes revealed a hint of kindness. This was a good start. Fang Yuan nodded in satisfaction and prepared to use the excuse he had prepared. ¡°Xiaojin, look, I risked my life to get Xiaoyin back for you¡­¡± After a long time, the kindness in his eagle eyes gradually disappeared until Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth was dry and his tongue parched. Apart from helplessness, there was also a faint hint of irritation and madness in the eagle eyes. Xiaojin really wanted to slip away. If it was possible¡­ After working hard for half a day, this was the result. Even Fang Yuan, who was a clay figurine, was a little angry. Just as he was about to change his attitude, Xiaoyin appeared and spread its wings, which were a size smaller than Xiaojin, and suddenly patted Xiaojin¡¯s leg. Fang Yuan was dumbfounded. Xiao Jin stared at Xiaoyin, who was less than half its height. The eagle¡¯s eyes were full of anger and confusion. It could not understand why it was hit by this companion who had reunited after being separated. ¡°Ew¡­ Ew¡­ Ew¡­¡± The young eagle cried out angrily. Its aura was actually not weak at all. Fang Yuan stood silently to the side. He was a little confused about the situation now, and it wasn¡¯t good for him to rashly participate in it. ¡°Ew¡­ Ew¡­¡± Through the contract, Fang Yuan finally understood what Xiaoyin was doing. It was persuading Xiaojin to surrender! It was persuading Xiaojin to obey fang yuan! He was moved, for he did not expect the little Iron Griffin to love him so much.. Listening attentively to Little Silver¡¯s childish cries, Xiaojin occasionally took the time to glance over at Fang Yuan. While being amazed by the Iron Griffin¡¯s devoted loyalty, he tried hard to squeeze out a smile to show his friendliness. After spending a full two hours, Xiaojin finally nodded. If it weren¡¯t for Xiaoyin¡¯s existence, Fang Yuan might not have been able to control the big Iron Griffin even after half a month! Placing his palm on Xiaojin¡¯s lowered head, fang yuan said softly, ¡°Sign a contract with me.¡± A faint blue light then extended from Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and entered the Iron Griffin¡¯s Iron Feathers. [Ding. Pet beast detected: Iron Gryphon (Xiaojin). Level 3 low-level, high-level gold. ] [Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement? ] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods. ] [First, give up the 100-fold enhancement and receive a high-level gold, low-level Level 3 Iron Griffin.] [Second, receive a 100-fold enhancement level and get a medium-level gold, low-level 3 Iron Griffin.] [Third, a 100-fold increase in quality. Obtain upper-grade gold-grade, low-grade level 4 Iron Griffin.] Sure enough, he was able to trigger a 100-fold increase with Xiaojin. It was not in vain for Fang Yuan to spend so much effort. He was elated when he thought about how the Iron Gryphon¡¯s loyalty attribute was exclusive to him. One big and one small iron gryphon stood by Fang Yuan¡¯s side. The smile on Fang Yuan¡¯s face could not be held back anymore. One was gold-grade, and the other was platinum-grade! On the other side, the Shadow Wolf that Fang Yuan had brought to the wall at the corner was another platinum-grade pet beast! If this scene were known by the outside world, it would definitely cause a stir. In addition to Fang Yuan¡¯s tender face, he was not even twenty years old. A young genius would definitely be able to shoulder this responsibility! However, it was a pity that Fang Yuan did not intend to spread his intelligence to the entire world. It was the most fatal thing for him to gain people¡¯s attention while increasing his strength. He would quietly develop and then surprise everyone! His thoughts were messy, and his smile became more and more indescribable. ¡°Xiaojin, Xiaoyin, wait a moment. I¡¯ll prepare a skill for you to increase your strength. In the future, you¡¯ll be kings in the sky.¡± As he spoke, Fang Yuan took out the low-level skill he had bought at the pet shop. The combo skill was the Phoenix Dragon Tornado. [Ding, low-level combo skill detected, the Phoenix Dragon Tornado! ] [Do you wish to proceed with the 100-fold enhancement?] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods.] [First, give up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain the low-level combo skill, the Phoenix Dragon Tornado.] [Second, level up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain the high-level combo skill, the Storm of Destruction.] [Third, level up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain the high-level skill, the Earth-Shattering Squall.] [Storm of Destruction: Activated by two pet beasts that share the same mind. Controls the gale and raises a storm of destruction that links Heaven and earth. Everywhere it passes, the sky is three feet high! Damage intensity: 200; Range: 100. ] [Earth-Shattering Gale: Activated by a single pet beast or host. Summons the gale below the ninth underworld. Breaks out from the ground and instantly kills the enemy! Damage intensity: 90; Range: 60] In both directions, the third option was not a combined attack. The damage and range were both a little weak. If it could be activated by two iron gryphons, it would definitely be an instant kill. One gold-quality and one platinum-quality. Under such a combination, who could withstand it? They were both good items. Unfortunately, one could not have both. Didn¡¯t they say that adults would not make a choice and would only want them all? He stared at the options given by the system. After a long while, Fang Yuan gritted his teeth and made a decision. Chapter 55 - A Huge Increase in Streng Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°I choose the second option!¡± The ordinary skill scroll then gave off a faint glow when it was opened by Fang Yuan. Two Iron Griffins, one big and one small, soon came forward. The twisted words and pictures of the skill scroll slowly disappeared, but they had been integrated into the hearts of the two Iron Griffins. As long as they were a little more familiar with each other, they would be able to unleash the most powerful power of the destructive storm! The system was indeed the most powerful tool. It was a bug. Other people¡¯s pets still needed to stumble and learn bit by bit. Only in this way could they learn a skill. At the same time, people still did not know about Fang Yuan¡¯s powerful beasts, or else they might have dealt with him a long time ago. Regardless of whether they could find the reason, they just needed to kill a monster like Fang Yuan¡­ Looking at his own results, Fang Yuan revealed a gratified smile like an old father. A platinum-grade Shadow Wolf and a platinum-grade Iron Griffin. Even the Little Iron Griffin had already attained the gold grade. The beats were a hundred times more powerful, which made him very happy. ¡°After my strength increases, can I not go and torture those newbies?¡± ¡°Butler, open the Virtual Arena Hall.¡± An illusory screen appeared two meters in front of Fang Yuan. Throuigh the technology, he could see densely packed rooms with different names. ¡°A lonely hero here. Please come in and grant me death!¡± ¡°A chaotic fight among ten people. Only those above the silver grade will be admitted. Otherwise, if I¡¯m defeated and collapse, the consequences¡­¡± ¡°One-on-one battle. Only those with the gold grade can join!¡± ¡°King¡¯s room. Fight till death!¡± One by one, the names of the rooms were either arrogant or serious. Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were blurred as he looked at them. He could not help but sigh at the number of arrogant people. He already had two platinum-grade pet beasts, but he did not dare to do this. He could not bear it. ¡°Butler, I want to increase my handsomeness by 50%.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s name was thus changed to an anonymous ID , but his facial features did not change much. Looking at his changed appearance, Fang Yuan was a little speechless, for his handsomeness remained unchanged. The butler then said, ¡°Your handsomeness has reached its peak. I cannot continue to increase it.¡± The corner of Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. He muttered to himself, ¡°So my handsomeness has already reached the peak. As expected, my handsomeness will also bring good luck. It is the same thing as gaining happiness by having money.¡± ¡°Put a white mask over my face.¡± After a while, the butler replied, ¡°Mask successfully covered.¡± After putting on the mask, his pair of bright eyes were enough to score a lot of points. Fang Yuan was slightly narcissistic for a while before saying, ¡°I¡¯ll randomly pick an unlucky person. Hopefully, I won¡¯t be defeated.¡± One by one, the rooms slid down from the top of the screen. With a ding, the random match was successful. ¡°King¡¯s room. Fight till death!¡± It was this room. The name was arrogant enough. Fang Yuan glanced at the name of the room. ¡°Another reckless one. Could it be that my name is not arrogant enough? Even a cat or dog dares to come in.¡± This arrogant words made the smile on Fang Yuan¡¯s face freeze. He raised his head and looked over. The room was chosen to be in the desert. The middle-aged man on the sand dune was holding his feet. Fang Yuan¡¯s disdain had already spilled out of this huge desert! The butler then announced, ¡°The battle will start soon. Three, two¡­¡± ¡°Begin!¡± ¡°Come out, Iron Griffin!¡± ¡°Destructive Storm!¡± Boom! Yellow Sand son filled the sky in an instant! The sand dune became flat. As far as the eye could see, there was not a single sand dune left. Only endless yellow sand followed the incomparably violent storm! The butler said, ¡°The battle is over. Time, 1.5 seconds! You have obtained victory. Your points have increased by 5!¡± The points in the virtual arena were also good items. In order to allow the trainers to accumulate more battle experience, the higher-ups of the human race took out various precious treasures and placed them on the platform. As long as the points were sufficient, the trainers could get the precious treasures. For example, Fang Yuan¡¯s [Scarlet Flame Heart] was coveted by many people. Up until now, no one had successfully exchanged for the [Scarlet Flame Heart ] . 10 million points was enough to scare people away. After five minutes, [Storm of Destruction ] flew out of Fang Yuan¡¯s sight. The arrogant middle-aged man from before was nowhere to be seen. He must have either been buried under the yellow sand or been blown to a very far place.. Fang Yuan let out a sigh of relief, but this was quickly thrown to the back of his mind. He could no longer hold back his smile. The power of [Storm of Destruction] was beyond his imagination. He originally thought that no matter how powerful this group skill was, it would not be able to achieve a good result in a one-on-one situation. He did not expect that this result would be invincible. With a destructive storm, he could forcefully change the terrain! It was too powerful! After being thrilled for a long time, Fang Yuan finally calmed down. Looking at the two iron griffins that were a little dispirited, he felt a little regretful. The consumption of [Destructive Storm] was too great. After a fight, he could only use it once. A certain someone was too greedy and could be ignored.. ¡°Butler, random match.¡± ¡°Another unlucky guy. This time, it¡¯s Your Shadow Wolf¡¯s turn to shine.¡± After a few minutes, the butler said, ¡°The match was successful.¡± ¡°Only those with the gold grade can enter. No newbies are allowed.¡± Glancing at the name of the room, Fang Yuan was a little amused. How could each of them be so arrogant? Chapter 56 - Random Match, Seething Chat Room Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°F*ck, why are you all here? Brat, have you grown enough hair? Do you know what this place is?¡± ¡°Get lost! I thought there¡¯s an expert here whom I can fight to the fullest¡­ F*ck, you¡¯re ready?!¡± Yet another grumpy older brother. Fang Yuan was also drunk. Could it be that there wasn¡¯t a single normal person in the arena? The host said, ¡°Battle Countdown, three, two¡­¡± ¡°Start!¡± ¡°Come out, Shadow Wolf!¡± ¡°Come out, Gluttonous Giant Frog!¡± The moment Shadow Wolf appeared, the battle erupted. Although the grumpy brother was grumpy, he immediately summoned his pet, but¡­ It was useless, completely useless! A gold-grade, at least gold-high-grade gluttonous giant frog could not last a round in front of Shadow Wolf! With a swipe of its sharp claws, it instantly killed both the human and the pet beast! Powerful, invincible, platinum grade Shadow Wolf! The Assassin Flying Dragon Knight, could do nothing at all, but could be considered satisfying the grumpy older brother with the Gold-grade entered followed by platinum-grade. The battle continued. In the battle, only one type of pet beast was used. It was either Shadow Wolf or Iron Gryphon. However, no matter which pet beast Fang Yuan summoned, the other party would not have a good outcome. The best would only last for five seconds, that was because the opponent had summoned a gold-grade defensive pet. Throughout the battle, Fang Yuan was extremely satisfied. The instant defeat, any kinds of noobs, no one could last 10 seconds against Fang Yuan! Fang Yuan continued to battle. The chat room in the hall was already in an uproar. Lin Jinyi, ¡°What¡¯s going on, everyone? Why was I instantly killed the moment I entered? I didn¡¯t even get a good look at my opponent!¡± Huang Jie, ¡± So I¡¯m not the only one encountering this. However, I¡¯m a little better than you. My opponent summoned a shadow wolf¡­ platinum-grade! Chen Xi, ¡°My opponent is even more ridiculous. He could summon two pet beasts at once. Then, the whole world was filled with strong winds. Then, I was gone!¡± Chen Xing, ¡°Ah Xi, you can¡¯t do it anymore. Have you become a noob after not coming for a long time? Come and fight with me. Let me torture you, too.¡± Wang Ye, ¡°Stop arguing. I¡¯ve confirmed in the group chat that there¡¯s an expert in the arena hall. We¡¯re all fish in a fish pond. We¡¯ve been fried in a fish pond.¡± The entire chat room went silent for about ten seconds before it exploded. Fried fish pond. How many years had it been since I last heard of this word? If they were still hanging around in the black iron bronze arena hall, they would have nothing to say even if they were fried in a fish pond. They could only endure if their strength was inferior to others. But now, they had grown up. This was not some black iron bronze arena. Even the silver-grade bosses did not dare to mess around here. They were afraid that they would be traumatized! Gold-grade was the mainstream in this hall, but what did they hear? The gold-grade arena had become a fried fish pond! ¡°Live Long and See¡± series? Chen Xing, ¡°How is that possible? I just started two matches, and I was instantly killed in both the matches. Are both the two bosses feeling bored, and blew up the fish pond together?¡± Lin Jin, ¡°I was defeated by two gryphons, one gold and the other platinum. That boss actually summoned two pet beasts. Was this some kind of new technique?¡± Wang Xin, ¡°It looks like everyone was beaten up. Why don¡¯t you tell me about your own situation? After gathering the intelligence, everyone would know what¡¯s going on!¡¯ Ma Tu, ¡°I¡¯ll go first. Ten minutes ago, a boss entered my room. The moment the battle started, I was stabbed in the back like a bloody gourd. Before I died, I took a look. That boss¡¯s pet beast was the shadow wolf. Oh yes, platinum-grade! Liang Xun, ¡°About five minutes later, a pair of iron gryphons were summoned at the same time. One gold and the other platinum. They were suspected to be using a combined attack.¡± Xu Yiyang, ¡°F*ck, even Liang Xun¡¯s three gold-grade pet big shots were beaten up. What¡¯s going on?¡± The one collecting the information was distracted and was then corrected. He then became serious. The information on describing how they were beaten up was neat and tidy. The information was also accumulated bit by bit. The big boss that they were talking about also gradually revealed his true appearance. The final conclusion made them dumbfounded, and they refused to accept such an outcome in their hearts. The big boss that was torturing them was actually the same person! He had a platinum-grade shadow wolf, two gryphons, one platinum and one gold! However, that was not all. It was a combined attack that could change the terrain. With just one skill, the entire world was in a storm! The elusive Shadow Wolf was the king of assassins! How could one person have all of these at the same time? It did not make sense at all! Jealousy made people look ugly! ¡­ On the other side, Fang Yuan had been randomly selected for a long time, but he still could not find a matching opponent . He was a little puzzled, but he did not know that in the entire gold-grade hall, the existence of the highest level was now quietly diving. They did not dare to build a room at all, they also did not dare to go into other ¡®s room. That unreasonable storm and the strange piercing of the blood calabash, they did not want to experience any of it. There was no joy at all! Chapter 57 - Little Iron Gryphon’s Troubles Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After waiting for almost ten minutes, they still couldn¡¯t match up successfully. Fang Yuan looked at the battle points regretfully. There were only 2,000 points. No wonder no one could get the [ Flaming Heart ] on the leaderboard. They had only fought for a short while, and there was already no one in the arena hall. How could they possibly get it? Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know that his battle methods had thoroughly frightened pet trainers of this level. They didn¡¯t dare to continue fighting at all. A battle that instantly killed wouldn¡¯t give them any battle experience. It was even less likely to bring them the joy of fighting! After exiting the arena hall, Fang Yuan looked at his system interface and imagined the little silver becoming a platinum-quality pet. That scene when the [ Storm of Destruction ] came down¡­ TSK TSK TSK, just thinking about it was enough to make people excited. Moreover, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t forget the special attribute that he was concerning about ¡ª reproduction! There were often lecherous people who said that if he was given a woman, he would be able to give birth to a football team in a few years. Fang Yuan wanted to tell these people that thiis was ¡°shallow¡±! If he was going to give birth, he would give birth to an army. What could a football team do? Pet beasts like iron gryphons, the more the better! The pair of iron gryphons that were full of fighting spirit shivered at the same time. They felt something inexplicable, and they also had a bad feeling. When they returned to school, Fang Yuan, who had disappeared for almost 10 days, the students, one after another, were ¡°jealous¡± of him. ¡°The top students have special privileges. If I had disappeared for 10 days, the school¡¯s expulsion notice would have been placed on my mother¡¯s desk.¡± ¡°At the same time, Auntie¡¯s bamboo shoots fried meat would have fallen on you, right?¡± ¡°TSK, you say it as if that¡¯s not what happened to you. Maybe uncle¡¯s size 45 shoe soles would have been printed on you directly.¡± A sour smell filled the air, and Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. At the same time, he could not help but sigh. This was really the privilege of a top student. If it was not for his amazing performance in school, it would be extremely difficult for him to take more than 10 days off as a student! However, this scene happened to be seen by the teacher who had just walked out of the door. The teacher strolled up to the podium. There was complete silence below, as if the clamor just now had never appeared. This was the dignity of a teacher! ¡°I heard some words just now, and I can pretend that I didn¡¯t hear it. But for your own good, I think I should tell you why some people get special treatment.¡± After the teacher finished speaking, he looked at Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan shook his head helplessly. He had already guessed what the teacher wanted to do. If possible, he really did not want to sho too much strength in front of his classmates, so as to avoid hurting their self-confidence. ¡°Fang Yuan, why don¡¯t you come up and show them what you¡¯ve achieved in the past 10 days?¡± It seemed to be a question, but Fang Yuan¡¯s brain had automatically turned it into an affirmative sentence. If he refused now, wouldn¡¯t it be a slap n the teacher¡¯s face? Would he still want to stay in school in the future? ¡°Okay, Teacher.¡± He walked up to the podium and looked down. His eyes filled with pity. Poor children, I hope you can hold on. ¡°Come out, Iron Gryphon!¡± The golden glow was very gentle, but in the eyes of the students, it was very dazzling! ¡°How is that possible! Gold!¡± ¡°Gold-grade flying pet, F*ck!¡± ¡°Is this an honor student? My ideal pet, the ultimate goal of my life, but he has already reached my end as a student!¡± ¡°Ugh¡­ your end is the starting point of others.¡± ¡°Why am I so sad? It¡¯s over. Will our class end up with a gold-grade pet as our goal?¡± Wails filled the air. The teacher standing at the side had a glint in his eyes. He knew that Fang Yuan would definitely gain something from going out these few days. But this gain¡­ wasn¡¯t it a little too big! After a full five minutes of noise, many teachers who had leisure time came to the classroom corridor to watch. ¡°Ahem, alright, Student Fang Yuan, put it away.¡± When Fang Yuan returned to his seat, the teacher continued to say, ¡°Did you see that? You all thought that student Fang Yuan took a leave of absence to go out and play. Now that you¡¯ve seen the iron gryphon, can you imagine how much hardship he has suffered these few days when he went out?¡± The corner of Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth twitched subtly. In the past few days when he was not in school, he actually did not suffer. He ate and drank well in the colosseum. The food was brought in by the staff, and it was very sumptuous. As for suffering¡­ the ones who suffered were the opponents in the underground colosseum. Anyway, it would not be his turn at all. However, he could not reveal any of this. The teacher¡¯s face could not be slapped. He could only show a determined and suffering expression. No matter what the true situation was like, the teacher had achieved the result he wanted. The entire class looked at Fang Yuan with admiration, and they also firmed up their own beliefs. After enduring through the morning, Fang Yuan found Dr. Zhao Ren. The research room was in a mess. Apparently, this Dr. Zhao Ren had just finished purchasing the ¡°goods¡± and was going to continue producing the evolution medicine. There were many materials on the ground that Fang Yuan didn¡¯t recognize. ¡°Why are you here? By the way, is the evolution drug effective?¡± Dr. Zhao Ren had a good impression of Fang Yuan, the student who could bring the experimental materials. He was always thinking about the titan bear in Fang Yuan¡¯s hand. Now, there was another material. The iron gryphon was a pet beast that went out of the lab, the experimental value was also very high. It would be good if he could get some. ¡°It¡¯s quite useful. Thank you, Professor Zhao.¡± Fang Yuan was sincerely grateful to the other party for allowing the Shadow Wolf to advance. Even though they had initially discussed it, this was essentially just a transaction. ¡°That¡¯s good. Why did you come here today?¡± Fang Yuan thickened his skin and said, ¡°Professor, do you know anything about the breeding of pet beasts? If you have a pair of pet beasts in your hands, how can you let them breed more pet beasts?¡± Speaking of academic questions, the smile on Professor Zhao Ren¡¯s face disappeared. ¡°Although I really want to know what you are going to do, after thinking about it, I think it¡¯s better to forget it. Although I am very interested in breeding, there are specialties in the field. I am not the one who is really knowledgeable in this field. The research lab here mainly focuses on pharmaceutical development and does not study the breeding of pets.¡± Fang Yuan could not help but feel a little disappointed when he heard what Dr. Zhao Ren said. He could not even get a direction from Dr. Zhao Ren, so he did not know anyone else who was as knowledgeable as Dr. Zhao Ren. However, Dr. Zhao Ren paused for a moment and continued, ¡°Although I am not very knowledgeable in this field, I can introduce you to someone who is knowledgeable in this field. Hold on.¡± There was a way. Fang Yuan watched Dr. Zhao Ren rummage through the shelves with great anticipation. He took out a pen and paper and began to draw on the paper. A letter was written in just a few minutes. Wasn¡¯t this a little too casual? ¡°Bring this introduction letter and go to the University of Tinder Biology to find Dr. Wang Chenggong. Tell him your problem and he will teach you how to do it.¡± Chapter 58 - Wang Chenggong, I Have Dug a Hole for You Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan sincerely thanked Dr. Zhao Ren. Under the iron gryphon¡¯s strong dissatisfaction, he picked two iron feathers and gave them to Dr. Zhao Ren. Fang Yuan then asked Dr. Zhao Ren for the details. The Tinder Biology Research University was in Shanghai, and Dr. Wang Chenggong was one of the leaders of this university¡¯s research institute. He had a high position and authority. Moreover, he was a true expert in the breeding of pet beasts. Such a person would definitely not be idle to solve the problems for Fang Yuan. As an expert, he had countless research subjects in his hands. How would he have time to solve problems for a young boy like Fang Yuan? However, with the relationship between Dr. Zhao and him, the other party would probably give him some face. ¡°Of course, it¡¯s impossible for you to get the reproductive technology for free. Relationships are relationships, but research institutes are also particular about benefits. If you bring the evolutionary drug technology to him, you¡¯ll be able to get the reproductive technology you want.¡± Dr. Zhao Ren said, ¡°By the way, remember to give me a copy of the reproductive technology when you get it. It saves me a trip.¡± Fang Yuan also knew that Dr. Zhao Ren only looked cold-hearted, but in actual fact, he was a passionate person. He said that he made him take a trip, but in actual fact, in order to help him, he did not hesitate to take out the results of his years of research. He had really given everything that he had! He had just returned to school but had to leave school again. Fang Yuan had a good reason, but the teacher was not happy. Looking at Dr. Zhao Ren¡¯s letter of introduction, he gnashed his teeth and said, ¡°If you fail the next exam in the liberal arts, just wait for your parents to be informed!¡± The results of the liberal arts was a small matter. Fang Yuan wasn¡¯t worried at all. With his solid theoretical foundation, it wasn¡¯t surprising that he was better than his classmates. Dr. Zhao Ren had a good reputation. Everything was smooth in Shanghai¡¯s Tinder Biology Research University. It took him less than ten minutes to enter the university and meet the real person. Dr. Wang Chenggong, a bald old man, was definitely a strong person. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have lost his hair. Although he was bald, he was not small at all. He was 1.8 meters tall. He looked more like a warrior than a scholar. Even though he had thick glasses, there was still wisdom in his eyes behind the lenses. ¡°Are you the person that Dr. Zhao Ren recommended? Have you graduated from the academy?¡± His tone was not very good. Could it be that Dr. Zhao Ren and Dr. Wang Chenggong did not have a good relationship? Frowning, Fang Yuan shook his head and decided to get straight to the point, ¡°Not yet, Dr. Wang. Today, I am here hoping to exchange something from the laboratory with a mature research result.¡± Success and maturity not far apart, but it sounded like the difference in value was huge. Sure enough, Dr. Wang Chenggong¡¯s scrutinizing gaze instantly became gentler and more eager. For scholars, they never complained that they had too much knowledge. ¡°Of course, there¡¯s no problem. Young student, what kind of technology did you bring? I haven¡¯t heard of Zhao Ren¡¯s achievements in any aspect recently.¡± ¡°It¡¯s an evolution potion, a potion that can improve the quality of pets. It has been tested, and it¡¯s a peerless treasure that won¡¯t endanger the lives of pets!¡± ¡°How is this possible! This is absolutely impossible!¡± Dr. Wang Chenggong, who was sitting down suddenly jumped up. Fang Yuan¡¯s pupils could not help but shrink. He was so agile, and he was definitely an expert, a trainer who possessed platinum, or even platinum-high-grade pets! ¡°Dr. Wang, what happened?¡± The door was knocked open, and the armed security guards were extremely nervous. Their vigilant eyes fell on Fang Yuan, as if they were ready to attack him at any time! Dr. Wang Chenggong hurriedly waved his hand. ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay. You guys can go down first. Don¡¯t let anyone come within five meters of this room. This young student and I have confidential matters to discuss.¡± The security guards looked at Fang Yuan and then Dr. Wang Chenggong, confirming that there was no possibility of Dr. Wang Chenggong being coerced. Then, they left the room and closed the door. Fang Yuan had a different interpretation of this scene in his heart. The high level of security also meant that the value of this laboratory was very high. Otherwise, why would there be such a high level of security? However, looking at Wang Chenggong¡¯s excitement, the exchange was already half completed. Dr. Wang Chenggong rubbed his hands and was a little excited. After organizing his words, he said, ¡°This student, Fang Yuan, right? Can I call you Student Xiao Fang?¡± Only now did he have the interest to know what his name was. As expected¡­ there was only a thin line between a scientist and a madman. Fang Yuan nodded. ¡°No problem, Dr. Wang. I¡¯ll use the evolution medicine to exchange for the pet breeding technology. Do you think it¡¯s okay?¡± Breeding technology? ¡°I¡¯m afraid that won¡¯t work.¡± Seeing Fang Yuan frown and a hint of anger between his brows, Wang Chenggong quickly continued, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. The breeding technology of pet beasts has always been a key problem for our school. As it¡¯s not mature yet, the success rate of breeding pet beasts is quite limited. What I mean is that we probably can¡¯t come up with a technology that can match the evolution medicine.¡± ¡°Especially the multiple breeding technology that you¡¯re interested in, it¡¯s even more of a difficult problem.¡± Fang Yuan did not lose his patience when he heard the other party¡¯s words. Instead, he continued, ¡°Why don¡¯t you tell me what level your current technology has reached, Dr. Wang?¡± Wang Chenggong explained in detail. The more Fang Yuan understood, the more excited he became. He soon discovered that the Tinder Biology Research University was not perfect enough. In fact, there were some useless technologies. But it met his requirements perfectly. First of all, all breeding techniques had a fatal flaw. That was, the pet that was bred had uncertainty. This uncertainty didn¡¯t refer to the breed of the pet, but the quality. For example, using the platinum-grade pet as the parents, then matching the breeding technology and materials of the research institute, the lower limit of the pet bred would be bronze, and the upper limit would be platinum. The probability of bronze was 90%. The probability of silver was 5% and the probability of gold was 4%. Only the remaining 1% could be platinum! Such a deceptive probability. After one breeding, the probability of the breeding not meeting the requirements was 95% , and only the gold quality could barely keep the capital! And the materials needed for breeding were definitely not low in value, almost on par with the gold pet. Such a low probability. Such a huge risk. This technology was naturally of little value to the Tinder Research University. But to Fang Yuan who had a 100 times amplification system, this was not a problem at all! The success rate was too low? Couldn¡¯t he just increase the success rate by 100 times? Although his heart was burning with passion, his face still had a look of disdain. Fang Yuan was already silently digging a hole, waiting for someone to fall into it. ¡°Dr. Wang Chenggong, I don¡¯t really need this technology, you see¡­¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s words of disdain, Wang Chenggong became anxious. If Fang Yuan gave up on the exchange, wouldn¡¯t this readily available evolutionary drug disappear without a trace? With his status as an academic big shot, he couldn¡¯t forcefully sell it to a student and make him buy, right? Wang Chenggong scratched his ears and cheeks. He was so anxious that he almost opened his skull! Chapter 59 - Competition, Right to Use the Breeding Lab Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°This way, not only the breeding technology, the laboratory will give you another 100 sets of breeding consumables. I guarantee that you will be able to breed a platinum quality pet beast!¡± After saying this, Xiao and Wang Chenggong could not help but show a pained expression. 100 sets of experimental materials, this was not a small number. The value was definitely not less than a hundred silver mid grade pet beasts! With the system¡¯s success rate bonus, Fang Yuan¡¯s algorithm was naturally different from Dr. Wang Chenggong¡¯s. If the success rate was increased, it would be a hundred gold or even platinum grade iron gryphons! The Iron Gryphon Army of his dreams was not a problem at all! However, Fang Yuan¡¯s face was still sullen, as if he was thinking hard. He seemed to be hesitating, also seemed to be unmoved. ¡°I¡¯ll give you another 20 sets!¡± Wang Chenggong gritted his teeth. His heart was dripping with blood, and he was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe. However, he really wanted the evolution potion. That kind of technology was a hundred times more valuable than the pet breeding technology. ¡°120 sets of experimental materials, plus the breeding technology and breeding laboratory, in exchange for your evolution potion technology. If this is still not enough, then there¡¯s nothing else that I can do.¡± After getting a little more benefit, Fang Yuan was overjoyed. However, he was very reserved on the surface. After hesitating for about two minutes and feeling that the acting should be over, he nodded. The deal was done. Fang Yuan received Wang Chenggong¡¯s approval, and with the approval, he could exchange it for the things he needed. At the same time, the laboratory could also be lent to Fang Yuan for his use. Dr. Wang Chenggong obtained the evolutionary drug technology that he had been longing for. Both of them were secretly delighted. At the same time, they laughed at each other¡¯s stupidity. Wang Chenggong: ¡°This kid was showing off his acting skills in front of me and thought that I couldn¡¯t see it? This is a huge profit. With some acting skills, I obtained the evolutionary drug.¡± Fang Yuan: ¡°It seems that the Iron Gryphon Army is about to be born in Dr. Wang¡¯s laboratory. I hope that he won¡¯t be so excited until his heart stops pumping. Old man, take care of your body.¡± The two of them parted ways. Dr. Wang Chenggong was in a hurry to research the evolution drug. He waved his hand as soon as he obtained the evolution drug. Fang Yuan was also in a hurry to cultivate his gryphon army by himself, so he left first. With Dr. Wang Chenggong¡¯s approval slip, Fang Yuan soon found the place, the pet breeding laboratory. ¡°It¡¯s here.¡± Standing outside the office, Fang Yuan raised his hand and knocked on the door. ¡°Who are you? Who told you to come here? Hurry up and leave.¡± The door of the office was only slightly opened, just nice to see the head of the person inside. He had a shifty look on his face, and he looked like he was not a good person. ¡°Hello, this is the approval of Dr. Wang Chenggong. I¡¯m here to borrow the laboratory. Oh yes, there are also 120 sets of experimental materials that the Dr. Wang has promised.¡± This lab chief named Liu Xiwen blocked the door and snatched the approval slip. After Chief Liu saw the contents clearly, his face became very ugly. He was a chief who had just been promoted. During this period of time, he made a small amount of money by buying and selling the materials in the breeding lab. Behind the scene, he had already negotiated with the boss of the underground black market. He wanted to make a bigger deal. In the end, the laboratory was directly promised to someone else by Dr. Wang Chenggong. Now that the only laboratory was occupied, when could he fulfill the ¡°order¡± that he had promised the boss of the black market at the drinking session last night? He could not fulfill the order. If there was a delay, he would be hacked to death, right?! He could not give up the laboratory! And he could not give the materials that he had promised to the black market boss to Fang Yuan! The word ¡°No¡± lingered on his lips, but he could not say it. This was the approval by Dr. Wang Chenggong. As a small lab chief, he had no right to refuse. Liu Xiwen¡¯s face was like a colorful lantern, changing back and forth. Fang Yuan looked at it with interest. This person¡¯s change of face was actually quite good-looking. After a long stalemate, Liu Xiwen seemed to have thought of a counter measure. He put on a fake smile, ¡°What happens is this. Dr. Wang Chenggong may not know the situation of the cultivation research lab. But it¡¯s also true that the cultivation research lab is not eye-catching.¡± ¡°Just two days ago, the cultivation research lab received a more urgent order. So¡­ the research lab is not available for the time being. Little Brother, you need to wait for a while before you can use it.¡± ¡°In addition, I need to explain that the cultivation research lab is temporarily out of stock with the experimental materials approved by Dr. Wang Chenggong. You may need to purchase them outside to carry out the research.¡± ¡°It will be just in time when you buy enough materials, the cultivation research lab¡¯s order can be fulfilled then.¡± After saying these, Liu Xiwen praised his own performance. He secretly calculated in his heart that this way, not only would he be able to fulfill the order that he had promised the black market big shot, when Fang Yuan went out to buy materials, he might even be able to secretly take out some from the research lab and sell it to Fang Yuan. What the hell was a win-win situation? He, Liu Xiwen, had won twice, and that was a true win-win situation! Fang Yuan¡¯s cold gaze was fixed on Liu Xiwen. Although he didn¡¯t fully understand what was going on, he almost understood that there must be something hidden in this cultivation laboratory. Liu Xiwen had underestimated Fang Yuan. Liu Xiwen must have thought that it wasn¡¯t easy for him to meet Dr. Wang Chenggong. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have told such an easily exposed lie. Unfortunately, sometimes he miscalculated the situation and fell into a big pit when he was unlucky. ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll go to another place to ask.¡± After saying that, he turned around and left, not bothering at all. This made Liu Xiwen somewhat anxious. He was still waiting for Fang Yuan to debate with him, so that Fang Yuan could better understand the reality. Now, Fang Yuan turned around and left, how could he do that? ¡°Don¡¯t, don¡¯t. We don¡¯t need to trouble others with the matter of the cultivation research lab.¡± Looking at Liu Xiwen who was blocking in front of him, Fang Yuan smiled, ¡°Then can I use the lab first? And the experimental materials on this, can I take them out of the lab?¡± Liu Xiwen¡¯s face instantly changed, and he stared at Fang Yuan with a gloomy face. ¡°Oh yes, I just came out of Dr. Wang Chenggong¡¯s office, and I seem to have left some things there. I will go over now.¡± Liu Xiwen¡¯s face was not only gloomy. His face was livid, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he would pounce on Fang Yuan in the next moment. Unfortunately, this little trick was useless to Fang Yuan. His bright eyes were full of smiles, as if nothing had happened. It seemed that he could not make Fang Yuan back down. Liu Xiwen¡¯s heart was in a daze. Once he attracted Wang Chenggong¡¯s attention, wouldn¡¯t the little tricks he had just done be exposed to the world? ¡°Little brother, this laboratory is indeed not available, but since you are in such a hurry to use it, it¡¯s not completely impossible. Let¡¯s do it this way. The people in our research institute are all civilized, and we also respect knowledge. Let¡¯s have a competition, as long as your cultivation technique is better than mine, you can use the laboratory first!¡± If it was possible, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t want to bother with this Liu Xiwen. But now, he had only one backer in the Tinder Research Lab, Dr. Wang Chenggong. Obviously, he was already immersed in the sea of evolutionary drug technology. Saying that he would go back to look for Wang Chenggong was just Fang Yuan¡¯s threat. He was afraid that he wouldn¡¯t be able to see Dr. Wang Chenggong in a short time. ¡°Okay, we are all people who respect knowledge.¡± After saying this, Fang Yuan and Liu Xiwen simultaneously spat in their hearts. Knowledge could only be useful if it could make them stronger or making money. Otherwise, what use would it be? The outcome of the competition had long been predicted by Fang Yuan. In terms of technology, Liu Xiwen could take the lead. After all, Fang Yuan had just come into contact with Liu Xiwen. However, Fang Yuan was not competing with Liu Xiwen in terms of technology. He chose¡­ to cheat! Chapter 60 - Shock, Platinum Iron Gryphon Breeding Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Liu Xiwen invited Fang Yuan into the breeding laboratory and said kindly, ¡°Familiarize yourself with the machines here first. Call me when you¡¯re ready.¡± The sudden kindness made Fang Yuan somewhat confused. He looked at Liu Xiwen in surprise and indeed felt that it was quite unusual. He did not have the energy to care about what Liu Xiwen was thinking. Fang Yuan wanted to immediately start to understand the situation in the laboratory. Soon he had familiarized himself with the various machines in his hands. At this time, Liu Xiwen quietly walked into his small office, made a phone call, and gave an order. After hanging up the phone, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Liu Xiwen¡¯s mouth. To anyone who dared to compete with him for the laboratory, he would make him completely lose his reputation. The entire process of the laboratory cultivation was recorded on video. The major media, universities, and research institutes would pay special attention to this competition. It was a blatant waste of laboratory materials, a reckless waste of taxpayers¡¯ money, and a young man with no skills messing around in the laboratory, so much so that more than a hundred million materials were scrapped¡­ Liu Xiwen had already prepared all sorts of headlines for Fang Yuan. As long as the entire experiment was reported by the media, even Dr. Wang Chenggong¡¯s connections would not be able to stop the ¡°surging public opinion¡±. And all of this had nothing to do with him. As the chief of the laboratory, he had already tried very hard to dissuade Fang Yuan. However, Fang Yuan had some connections with some people, and his behavior was very ¡°arrogant¡±. He could not dissuade him. He not only took revenge on Fang Yuan, but he could also attack the opponent¡¯s backer. Liu Xiwen had already made a clear calculation. Thinking of this, his heart was burning with flame of success, and he could not help but be more ¡°concerned¡± about Fang Yuan. ¡°The materials for the competition are all here. The two materials are exactly the same. Can you check them?¡± Liu Xiwen took out the two materials. Fang Yuan looked at them and knew that they were indeed the same. He often went to Dr. Zhao Ren¡¯s research room and had familiarized himself with the content of the materials. This was the most basic skill. ¡°No need, let¡¯s start.¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s calm tone, Liu Xiwen thought darkly in his heart, ¡°I¡¯m not in a hurry, you continue pretending. When the experiment starts, you will naturally lose face and destroy your future.¡± ¡°That¡¯s good, let¡¯s begin. You just came into contact with the cultivation technology, so we don¡¯t calculate the time of the competition, and only base on the quality to determine the winner.¡± Liu Xiwen was so kind that Fang Yuan fell into confusion for a while, not knowing what was going on with this person. Two faces switching back and forth, could it be split personality? It was really terrifying to think about it. However, the competition had already begun. Fang Yuan had to suppress the confusion in his heart and begin all kinds of preparatory work required for the experiment. Seeing that Fang Yuan was focusing on the experiment, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Liu Xiwen¡¯s mouth. He flipped his palm, and a gold-grade thick pig skin appeared. Compared to Fang Yuan¡¯s silver-grade thick pig skin, it was simply a complete victory. Haha, the right time and place were at his side, how could Fang Yuan win? Liu Xiwen would never have dreamed that Fang Yuan had a better method than him, who cheated. He saw that Fang Yuan was holding various materials in his hands, and now he was holding the thick pig skin. [ Ding, the material detected is low-grade silver, level two bgnnr ter thick pig skin. ] [ Do you want to increase by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways for the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain low-grade silver material, level two beginner tier thick pig skin. ] [ Second, increase the level by 100 times and obtain low-grade silver material, level five beginner tier thick pig skin. ] [ Third, increase the grade by 100 times and obtain low-grade platinum material, level two beginner tier thick pig skin. ] ¡°I choose the second, level five beginner tier thick pig skin.¡± He thought to himself as he picked up the next material. [ Ding, low-grade silver detected. Level two beginner tier skyheart grass. ] [ Do you want to increase by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways for the increase. ] [ First, give up a 100-fold increase. Obtain low-grade silver, level two beginner tier skyheart grass. ] [ Second, a 100-fold increase in level. Obtain low-grade silver, level five beginner tier skyheart grass. ] [ Third, increase the grade by 100 times. Obtain low-grade platinum, level two beginner tier skyheart grass. ] He chose the second option again and started to choose the materials one by one. The pile of materials in front of Fang Yuan had increased their value by more than a hundredfold! Meanwhile, Liu Xiwen was being stingy and sneakily changing one of the materials. He had changed from silver grade to gold grade. He was so petty when it came to cheating. If Fang Yuan knew about it, he would probably look down on him even more. However, Fang Yuan was not only cheating, he was cheating completely! The breeding experiments on both sides were being carried out in an orderly manner. In a hidden corner, a camera recorded the situations on both sides. Time passed quietly. Fang Yuan¡¯s experimental techniques were becoming more and more skillful. Using the system to breed pets was really twice the result with half the effort. When others had to carefully look at the data table, Fang Yuan only needed to pay attention to the system¡¯s reading bar. The hundred times amplification materials, cultivating pet beasts was equivalent to personally doing it. Everything was arranged properly for Fang Yuan, and at the same time, Liu Xiwen¡¯s side was also arranged clearly. Looking at Liu Xiwen who was diligently and carefully cultivating, and his forehead was full of sweat but he did not dare to reach out to wipe it as he was afraid that sound would affect the result, Fang Yuan did not disturb him since Liu Xiwen did not have time. Fang Yuan¡¯s gaze fell on the room where Liu Xiwen had just taken out the materials. He narrowed his eyes and thought that he might as well make full use of the time he had to wait for the system and use the materials that Wang Chenggong had promised him. This way, he would be able to see his platinum-iron gryphon legion earlier. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart immediately burned with passion. Without any hesitation, he walked into the room and took out the materials by himself. After the materials were multiplied by a hundred times, he directly cultivated them. In order to achieve Fang Yuan¡¯s goal of the iron gryphon legion, he went all out. Over at Fang Yuan¡¯s side, hundreds of cultivation plans were launched at the same time. However, Fang Yuan looked much more relaxed than Liu Xiwen, who was cultivating a single project. He even had the energy to look left and right, pacing back and forth, walking to the side of Liu Xiwen¡¯s cell-culture dish to guide him on his cultivation method¡­ After working for more than two hours, Liu Xiwen looked at the embryo in the cell-culture dish, and his heart finally relaxed a bit. The success of the experiment was already in front of his eyes, he was just waiting to harvest the fruits of success. He raised his head and looked in Fang Yuan¡¯s direction. Liu Xiwen was stunned, what was he doing? Why did it look like something was wrong? The process of the experiment was carried out in the cultivation pod, Liu Xiwen only saw Fang Yuan¡¯s leisurely look, but he did not know that the warehouse that he was going to put into his pocket had already been emptied by Fang Yuan. He also did not expect that Fang Yuan actually dared to carry out hundreds of incubation plans at one go. This was too crazy, even in his dreams, Liu Xiwen didn¡¯t dare to think of this! He anxiously asked, ¡°Little Brother Fang, my incubation has been prepared successfully, I wonder how is it on your side?¡± Liu Xiwen¡¯s words were both a test and a show off. His side was about to succeed, Fang Yuan should also be anxious, right? The other side¡¯s mentality was unstable, so his side was a big victory. Chapter 61 - Success of Hundred Gryphon Breeding and Harvest of Platinum Grade Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Sigh, the number is really too large, I don¡¯t know how to start. Unlike Chief Liu who focuses on one thing, I might need some time to hatch.¡± Fang Yuan knew that Liu Xiwen had bad intentions, and he definitely wanted to see him make a fool of himself, so he might as well play a good show with him. Liu Xiwen was secretly happy, but he pretended to comfort him, ¡°A hundred samples is really too difficult. It was originally fine, but this time, too many precious materials were consumed. Little Brother Fang, if it fails, you will have to take responsibility!¡± After saying this, Liu Xiwen saw that the door of the laboratory was flooded with reporters. ¡°Hello, I am a special reporter from the ¡®Pet Times¡¯. I heard that the laboratory is carrying out an invention that transcends the era, it can be used to cultivate pet beasts, is that true?¡± ¡°How did you come in, the laboratory does not allow outsiders to freely enter, go out.¡± Dr. Wang Chenggong heard the commotion outside the door and walked out. He happened to see the reporters coming to interview the scene, he frowned and wanted to chase all the reporters out. However, he was stopped by Liu Xiwen. ¡°Dr. Wang, since the experiment has been completed, it doesn¡¯t matter whether it will be contaminated or not. Let the reporters witness the birth of a miracle or the moment when the swindler appears.¡± Liu Xiwen said. Wang Chenggong heard that the embryo breeding technology had been successful, and his attention immediately shifted to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan made a ¡®yeah¡¯ gesture to him. Wang Chenggong also stood with the reporters, ready to see the results of the experiment. ¡°It¡¯s time to hatch.¡± Liu Xiwen said to the reporters, ¡°Reporter friends, my embryo breeding has been completed, let¡¯s see the results together.¡± Although it was still a cub, the experiment equipment clearly showed its attributes. [ Scientific name: Wind Thunder Fox ] [ Bloodline: Spirit Fox ] [ Quality: Low-grade gold ] [ Attributes: Fox, Thunder, Wind ] [ Positioning: Attack/support ] [ Skills: 1. Fox claw, 2. Lightning gathering, 3. Wind chasing ] [ Personality: Playful, fond of eating ] [ Hobbies: None ] [ Skill description: None ] [ Reproductive ability: Weak ] The reporters began to take photos of this fox embryo. ¡°It¡¯s a middle-grade gold cub!¡± The reporters cheered, ¡°Chief Liu used the low-grade wild boar skin to cultivate a middle-grade gold embryo, he is really an expert! He is the pillar of the country.¡± ¡°Thank you, thank you, thank you for your support. I¡¯m just doing what I should be doing.¡± Liu Xiwen was enjoying the feeling of being photographed by the reporters while making an embarrassed look. It was simply hilarious. ¡°Everyone, you may not know this, but compared to my insignificant contribution, this Little Brother Fang has spent 100 sets of our laboratory¡¯s precious cultivation materials to cultivate his iron gryphon. A full 100 set precious breeding materials, let¡¯s go and see his results, a full 100 sets precious breeding materials.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t repeat the ¡®100 sets of the precious materials¡¯, are you a repeater?¡± Seeing Liu Xiwen¡¯s smug look, Fang Yuan felt angry yet amused, ¡°Reporter friends, if you don¡¯t mind, please follow me.¡± When they came to Fang Yuan¡¯s side, the iron gryphon embryo had already taken shape. Liu Xiwen said, ¡°What¡¯s going on? I gave you 100 sets of the precious breeding materials, and you used all of them to incubate the gryphon? This is obviously a bronze grade gryphon.¡± Liu Xiwen was about to reach out to grab the gryphon cub, but Fang Yuan opened his hand, ¡°This is one of the 100 sets of the precious breeding materials. Have you disinfected? You can directly touch the pet cub?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Liu Xiwen knew that he was in the wrong. In the laboratory, it was not allowed to touch the young pet without wearing gloves or disinfecting. The 100 young gryphons had already begun to cry out for food. If they had all entered adulthood, the scene would be spectacular. Dr. Wang Chenggong saw that there was a conflict between Liu Xiwen and Fang Yuan, so he personally came out to help test the grade of these gryphons. He randomly picked one and put it on the instrument to test. ¡°[ Middle-grade gold ] gryphon.¡± He took out another one, and the instrument showed [ middle-grade gold ] . He took out another one, and surprisingly, it showed [ upper-grade gold ] ! Oh my God! The reporters recorded an incredible scene. A hundred gryphons were randomly tested, they were all gold, and they were all middle-grade and above! Wang Chenggong was also very excited. What the evolutionary potion claimed was true. Liu Xiwen¡¯s face turned pale. He was the one who had invited the reporters. He was not willing to give up, so he said to Wang Chenggong, ¡°Dr. Wang, you are so lucky. I will choose a gryphon, and you will test it.¡± Wang Chenggong looked at Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan said, ¡°Okay, you choose, and I will test it for you.¡± Although Liu Xiwen didn¡¯t want Fang Yuan to test it, as he was afraid that Fang Yuan would do something here, but what could Fang Yuan do? Modify the results of the instrument? How could it be possible? Liu Xiwen could only bite the bullet and choose the most fragile looking gryphon, and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°That one.¡± Fang Yuan put on his gloves and grabbed the young gryphon. [ Ding. Pet detected: Iron Gryphon, grade one, gold peak. ] [ Do you want to increase by 100 times? ] [ Host can choose from the following methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain gold peak, grade one iron gryphon. ] [ Second, 100 times increase in grade and obtain low-grade platinum, level one iron gryphon. ] [ Third, 100 times increase in quality, obtained gold peak, grade two iron gryphon. ] Fang Yuan smiled at Liu Xiwen. Liu Xiwen¡¯s luck was really good. He had chosen the iron gryphon, which was at the peak of breeding, at a glance. Under the 100 times enhancement system, it would be Fang Yuan¡¯s first platinum-grade pet. Option two. Fang Yuan put the small iron gryphon on the instrument. Everyone¡¯s mouth grew into an ¡®O¡¯ shape, unable to calm down for a long time. [ Scientific name: Iron Gryphon ] [ Bloodline: Gryphon ] [ Quality: Platinum Low Grade ] [ Attribute: Eagle, iron, wind ] [ Positioning: Defense/Vanguard/Mount ] [ Skills: 1. Flying feather, 2. Strong wind, 3. Kicking sand, 4. Staring ] [ Character: Perseverance, loyalty ] [ Hobby: Flying ] [ Skill Description: Slightly¡­ ] [ Reproductive Ability: Strong ] Platinum low-grade. This was a dream pet that many people could only dream of. The reporters quickly took pictures of this historic scene, and they immediately prepared to run back to their publishing office to publish their reports. Liu Xiwen wanted to stop it, but it was too late. He sat on the ground in frustration, muttering, ¡°Why is it so?¡±. ¡°Dr. Wang Chenggong, can you fulfill your promise to me?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Of course, from now on, everyone in the pet breeding laboratory will belong to you, but this evolution potion¡­¡± Wang Chenggong didn¡¯t look like a doctor, but more like a businessman. ¡°I¡¯ll give you the formula.¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Deal.¡± Wang Chenggong replied. And Liu Xiwen, who was sitting on the laboratory floor muttering to himself, seemed to have been forgotten. Chapter 62 - Liu Xiwen Mended His Ways Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Dr. Wang Chenggong, don¡¯t you find it strange? Why did the reporters mention about low-grade wild boar skin the moment they entered? Do reporters also have research on pet breeding?¡± Fang Yuan said to Wang Chenggong. In fact, he wanted to remind Wang Chenggong that Liu Xiwen was an ambitious person. How could Wang Chenggong not know? He replied, ¡°Liu Xiwen entered the research department through the back door and became the chief. He must have his own purpose.¡± ¡°What does he want to do?¡± Fang Yuan looked at Liu Xiwen who was still on the ground, giving up on himself, and wondered. However, the most important thing now was to put these gryphons in the training chamber. This way, he could soon have his own gryphon legion. That would be real cool. He also tested the other gryphons. The best grade of the others was [ gold high-grade ] . After a hundred times of enhancement, they could only reach [ gold peak ] . There were no more platinum-grade iron gryphon. It was a bit of a pity, but it was not a big problem. As long as he could gather all the materials, he could also evolve his other pet beasts. The day of him becoming the king of pet beasts was just around the corner. After Wang Chenggong obtained the formula for the evolution potion, he immediately went into the laboratory to start his own research. With this thing, let alone a pet breeding laboratory, in the future, even the royal pet breeding laboratory would be in his pocket. However, his ambition was not there. He only wanted to leave his name in history, and it would be best if it was written in the textbook. Fang Yuan put the last iron gryphon into the cultivating pod, and then he remembered that Liu Xiwen¡¯s pet, the wind thunder fox, was still suffering in the incubator, so he asked Liu Xiwen, ¡°Your wind thunder fox, do you want to put it in the cultivating pod?¡± Liu Xiwen shouted, ¡°Don¡¯t touch my pet.¡± Then he rushed to the laboratory and directly stuffed the young wind thunder fox into his pocket. The young wind thunder fox seemed to be in a bit of pain, and began to howl. As it was still a baby, its baby voice made people¡¯s heart ache. ¡°Where are you going?¡± Seeing Liu Xiwen put the wind thunder fox into his pocket and then walked towards the entrance of the lab, Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t help but call out to him. Pet animals would be injured and die, and Fang Yuan absolutely wouldn¡¯t allow pet animals to be abused. ¡°It¡¯s none of your business.¡± Liu Xiwen felt sorry that the high-grade wild boar skin that he had bought from the black market had only hatched to a small low grade gold fox. However, even if it was a low-grade gold fox which could not be compared to any iron gryphon from Fang Yuan, it could be sold for more than 50 million in the black market. Naturally, he would not hand over the wind thunder fox to the laboratory. Seeing Liu Xiwen sneaking out, Fang Yuan felt that something was not right and quietly followed behind him. ¡°Hi, I have a low-grade gold fox here. Help me sell it.¡± Liu Xiwen seemed to be ordering others to do things on his phone. Not long after, a small van stopped beside Liu Xiwen. A man came out, pinched and touched the little fox in Liu Xiwen¡¯s hand. It seemed that he was trying to verify if it was genuine. After confirming that it was indeed a low-grade gold wind thunder fox, he took out his wallet, took out a stack of money and handed it to Liu Xiwen. ¡°You, you actually secretly sold the pet of the Research Institute?¡± At this time, Fang Yuan caught him red-handed. Liu Xiwen looked extremely embarrassed, he said to the man in sunglasses, ¡°This is the kid who ruined my good deed. Help me teach him a lesson.¡± The man in sunglasses looked at Fang Yuan. He didn¡¯t recognize this face, but he was very familiar with this voice. Back in the underground colosseum, the owner of this voice had deceived everyone. Not only had he cheated them of their wagers, but he had also poisoned the pet beasts he had fought with for no reason. In the end, they had to fork out money to buy his antidote to get through the difficult situation. The man in sunglasses looked at Liu Xiwen again. If he really had to make a choice¡­ He quickly stuffed the young wind thunder fox back into Liu Xiwen¡¯s arms. Then, he took out a stack of banknotes from Liu Xiwen¡¯s pocket, counted fifty pieces, and stuffed the rest of the banknotes back into his pocket. He got into the van and left. ¡°Hey you!¡± Liu Xiwen only saw him give himself the middle finger in the end. It seemed to indicate that their cooperation had been cut off forever. Fang Yuan walked to Liu Xiwen¡¯s side and snatched the wind thunder fox from his hands. At this time, the hundred times enhanced system was activated: [ Ding. Pet Beast detected: Wind thunder fox, level one, low-grade gold. ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times enhancement? ] [ Host can choose from the following enhancement methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times enhancement and obtain the low-grade gold, level one wind thunder fox. ] [ Second, 100 times enhancement in grade and obtain a middle-grade gold level one wind thunder fox. ] [ Third, 100 times enhancement in quality and obtain a low-grade gold level two iron wind thunder fox. ] Naturally, he did not need to think about it and immediately chose the middle grade gold wind-thunder fox. Seeing the wind thunder fox was quietly sleeping in Fang Yuan¡¯s hands, Liu Xiwen knew that he was not a match for Fang Yuan and could only tell him the truth. Originally, Liu Xiwen was also a diligent scientist, but the research materials were too expensive. By chance, a man bought a silver pet from him and told him that in the future, if there were better pets in the laboratory, he would buy them at a high price. It was the first time Liu Xiwen saw so much money. When he wanted to spend money to buy materials, he began to hesitate. What was the purpose of doing scientific research all his life? A pet was still at the mercy of others, so he might as well sell it to the black market. At least it could still find itself a owner, and he himself could also make money. He lowered his head and waited for Fang Yuan to announce the sanctions against him. He now admitted that he had made all the mistakes. Whether it was his strength, magnanimity, or even his scientific research level, he was far inferior to Fang Yuan who was in front of him. At this time, Dr. Wang Chenggong ran over. ¡°Hello, Liu Xiwen. Actually, I know that you spent money to be transferred to here. But I still admire your previous ¡°Theory of the Butterfly Effect in Pet Beasts¡±. In fact, to do experiments is very cruel, but privately selling pet animals is a violation of the interests of the laboratory. This is not good.¡± Dr. Wang patted Liu Xiwen¡¯s shoulder and said, ¡°It¡¯s no use just regretting it, let¡¯s do the pet breeding project together to the end, which is the best reward for the pet animals that lost their lives in the experiment, don¡¯t you think so?¡± Liu Xiwen thought of his pet and shed tears. He nodded and said to Wang Chenggong, ¡°Dr. Wang, I understand. I will cooperate with you in the future. Let¡¯s work together to breed a better pet!¡± It seemed that the problem was solved successfully? Fang Yuan shrugged indifferently. He was not interested in Liu Xiwen¡¯s fate at all. He had already achieved his goal by getting the gryphon legion and the breeding laboratory. Oh, yes, and also this little guy in his hand. Fang Yuan smiled as he looked at the little fox sleeping soundly in his palm. Chapter 63 - Xiao Jin and Ah L Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Now that he had the Iron Gryphon Legion, Fang Yuan was too lazy to think of the names for them. He thus directly called them by their code names, naming them from 1 to 99. The reason he only named them 99 was because the platinum gryphon had its own name, ¡°Xiao Jin¡±. Little Silver didn¡¯t get angry at all when her name was taken. Perhaps it was because of the suppression due to level that she didn¡¯t dare to offend Xiao Jin. Instead, she seemed to be particularly friendly. Fang Yuan looked at Xiao Jin and Little Silver, who were getting closer to each other, and planned to cultivate them as the main fighting force, and continue to practice combination techniques. The weather gradually became hotter, and it began to officially enter summer. In such a season, furry pets were very uncomfortable. For example the little fox lying in Fang Yuan¡¯s arms, it constantly stuck out its tongue. This was a spirit fox that had been taken from Liu Xiwen. It had been nurtured by breeding equipment and was now in its infancy. After an examination, it was found that it was a girl, so it named her Ah Li. Ah Li was only a middle-grade gold wind thunder fox. He didn¡¯t know where Liu Xiwen had obtained it from. Fang Yuan looked at Ah Li¡¯s information. [ Scientific Name: Wind Thunder Fox ] [ Bloodline: Spirit Fox ] [ Quality: Low-grade gold ] [ Attributes: Fox, Thunder, Wind ] [ Positioning: Attack/Support ] [ Skills: 1. Fox Claw, 2. Gathering Thunder, 3. Chasing Wind ] [ Personality: Playful, fond of eating ] [ Hobby: None ] [ Skill Description: None ] [ Reproductive Ability: Weak ] It was indeed playful and fond of eating, and it was especially lazy. Looking at Ah Li, who was staring blankly at the ground with its tongue sticking out, Fang Yuan was thinking about its attack power. This fox¡¯s attack method seemed to be very special. It had two methods, one was to scratch people and the other was to summon lightning. It was like a yellow-skinned mouse from an anime. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan immediately called Ah Li over to spar with Xiao Jin. Due to the grade suppression, Xiao Jin was only allowed to defend and was not allowed to fight back. ¡°Ah Li, use your fox claws.¡± Hearing the order, Ah Li immediately stood up and pounced on the iron gryphon. It began to scratch randomly. Rather than saying that this was a fox claw, it was more accurate to say¡­ a house cat scratching wildly? But after Ah Li¡¯s attack ended, he received Xiao Jin¡¯s feedback. Xiao Jin actually had a strange thought, and this thought drove him to pounce on Ah Li. ¡°Xiao Jin, don¡¯t!¡± Before he could finish speaking, the strong Xiao Jin had already pounced on the weak and small Ah Li on the ground, and Ah Li let out a miserable cry. However, it was still alright. After all, due to the difference in race, Xiao Jin was still young, so he did not do anything out of ordinary. ¡°This move is really a godly skill. It looks like the fox really does have the ability to charm. However, before Ah Li has the ability to save its life, I should just forget about it. I should use this move less,¡± Fang Yuan thought. He tested her other two moves. ¡°Ah Li, use thunder gathering!¡± Ah Li opened his mouth, and a purple energy ball flickered in its mouth. It was only after the energy ball had gathered to a certain extent that Ah Li spat out the energy ball. This energy ball did not seem to be very powerful, but it made Xiao Jin feel threatened. He had no choice but to activate his defensive stance. Xiao Jin was worthy of being a platinum grade pet beast. Facing such an energy attack, he actually withstood it. Ah Li¡¯s skills were not good enough. Let¡¯s test the last skill. Fang Yuan said as he commanded Ah Li, ¡°Quick, Ah Li, use wind chaser.¡± Ah Li turned his head to the side and refused this request. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Seeing Ah Li not moving for a long time, he walked up to see what Ah Li was doing. When Ah Li saw him, it pointed at the Miao Xian Bao packet on the ground. That was the snack he had given to her in the morning. ¡°Awoo, awoo, awoo¡­¡± Ah Li was happily licking the meat in the Miao Xian Bao, making a happy sound. He really didn¡¯t know whether it was a cat or a dog. How could it like this kind of thing? Xiao Jin, who was at the side, was watching indifferently. It didn¡¯t like this kind of sticky food. Xiao Jin¡¯s personality and Ah Li seemed to be completely opposite. Xiao Jin didn¡¯t talk much, and it was especially obedient. It was born to be the leader of the other gryphon brothers and sisters, but he seemed to only care about Sister Little Silver. This gave Fang Yuan a headache. After eating, Ah Li made a gesture of full energy. ¡°Okay, Ah Li, use wind chasing!¡± Fang Yuan saw that Ah Li was full of energy, so he was also interested. Ah Li squatted down, and its hind legs began to move like a bison. Once, twice, three times¡­ Moreover, a transparent light seemed to appear on its feet. Then, Ah Li rushed out like the wind, no, faster than the wind. It was almost invisible to the naked eye, and only an afterimage could be seen. This move made Xiao Jin extremely afraid, because Ah Li was circling around him. He did not know which direction Ah Li would attack from. This continued for about three minutes, and with a plop, Ah Li fell to the ground. Fang Yuan and Xiao Jin quickly surrounded him. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Ah Li had fainted itself. What a silly fox, but its speed was really fast. On the battlefield, there were some areas that could be used. For example, it could charm the opponent, and then use its speed to lure the opponent into its own encirclement. In the future, it could even cultivate a pet beast that specialized in setting traps to fight together with Ah Li. That way, it could even defeat the opponent without any casualties. It was much stronger than fighting head-on. He gave Ah Li another cat strip and Ah Li began to eat it. Xiao Jin and Ah Li were undoubtedly his biggest gains this time. It was time to arrange training for them. But what kind of training should he do for the fox? Theoretically speaking, as long as Ah Li¡¯s first skill could make it more attractive, it should be able to play a greater role. In other words, he had to make Ah Li a popular fox. But, what kind of fox could be considered a popular fox? Fang Yuan fell into deep thought. He had never raised this kind of pet before. He had always kept cool type pet. Even the auxiliary pet was either an insect or an arthropod. Such a cute pet had to be used well. Ah Li could probably be used not only for fighting, but also for live streaming. People would watch her eat cat strips and turn her stomach on the ground every day. She wouldn¡¯t bite or scratch people. How cute! When she appeared in the video, it would definitely be filled with ¡°hahaha, too cute¡± praises. However, she couldn¡¯t act cute completely. To train Ah Li¡¯s speed, her speed was the advantage. As long as Ah Li could run fast enough, she would not be injured. She would be better able to.. pull monsters! That way, when they were leveling in the arcane realm, Ah Li¡¯s functions would be shown. Time was of the essence. When they grew up a little, they would be brought to level up. It was best to quickly level up. Who knew when a new challenge would appear. Chapter 64 - Heading to Southern Border Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The news of Fang Yuan cultivating a platinum-grade gryphon in the laboratory was broadcasted in the news, causing a huge sensation. In a short while, the news was spread to all parts of the country. The television station also kept replaying the news. At this moment in the south, in the military command base, a man kept replaying the scene. ¡°Why are you still watching television at this hour? You¡¯re really not doing your job properly.¡± A man in a general¡¯s uniform walked over and wanted to turn off the television, ¡°Right now, the army ants are attacking our defenses wave by wave. Once they break through the defense line, our people will have to face the threat of the army ants. Our farms and medicinal fields will all be destroyed. At this time, you still have the mood to watch television.¡± Just as he was about to turn off the television, the man stopped him. Instead, he called him to look at the scene carefully. ¡°Does this boy look a little familiar?¡± The man asked. The general fixed his eyes on him. Wasn¡¯t this the boy who had defeated more than 500 demonized mad bulls and had even received a national reward. However, what surprised him even more was that he saw gryphons dancing in the air behind the boy. ¡°Now you understand what I mean, right? Although the army ants are strong, invincible, and have an extremely strong resistance to fire, they can¡¯t do anything to aerial creatures. If we can borrow this batch of gryphons, perhaps we can eliminate the army ants as soon as possible. What do you think?¡± The man asked. The general began to think about this matter. He heard that this young man didn¡¯t care about fame and fortune, and he had such powerful strength. It was probably not easy to convince him. Who should he find to negotiate with him? That afternoon, when Fang Yuan was arranging for Ah Li and Xiao Jin to spar, an uninvited guest appeared. ¡°Fang Yuan, long time no see.¡± ¡°Instructor He, why are you here? How did you know that I am here?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the man in front of him. It was surprisingly the instructor He Liwei from his previous military service. ¡°The matter of you grooming a large group of gryphons has already spread on television. These are all gryphons above middle gold grade. You really exceed my expectations every time you do something. How many more surprises do you have to give me?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t dare, I don¡¯t dare.¡± Fang Yuan had been busy training his pet during this period of time. He was thinking about how to improve his pet¡¯s combat strength. He wanted to train his pet¡¯s combat strength to the highest level before the next arcane realm opened so that he could obtain better materials. ¡°What happened is, Fang Yuan, actually, I have a favor to ask of you this time.¡± He Liwei saw that Fang Yuan did not show any repelling attitude, so he decided to get straight to the point. ¡°Do you still remember how you saved tens of thousands of people in border town? We were lucky to have you at that time.¡± Fang Yuan did not understand why He Liwei would bring up this matter so long after the incident. He knew that he definitely had something to say, so he waited for him to say what he was going to say next. ¡°Our South also suffered the invasion of the demonic beast tide this time. It¡¯s the demonized army ants. Do you know about army ants? They usually live together in groups. They have a tough appearance, they are good at climbing, and they move extremely fast.¡± Fang Yuan had seen records of this pet beast in the professor¡¯s laboratory, but he had never seen it before. He just nodded, ¡°But according to the professor¡¯s records, this pet beast is generally docile and doesn¡¯t take the initiative to attack. Why would it attack human cities?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know about that.¡± In fact, the recent incidents of pet beasts being demonized and then attacking humans had attracted the attention of the higher-ups of the humans. However, there had been no investigation results, but the pet beast attacks were going on wave after wave, it was too much for the humans to handle. Thinking of this, He Liwei looked at Fang Yuan. If there were more mutants like Fang Yuan, the humans would not be so passive. However, he shook his head and threw this crazy idea out of his mind. After listening to He Liwei¡¯s words, Fang Yuan roughly understood the purpose of He Liwei¡¯s visit. He wanted him to come out and settle this matter.. If it was only army ants, this kind of animal that could not fly could be completely annihilated by flying animals. More importantly, army ants were living experience points to him. He did not know how to cultivate such a huge gryphon army at this juncture, and coincidently the army ants came to deliver experience points. However, Fang Yuan would not show it directly. He wanted to know what He Liwei¡¯s conditions were. ¡°The Military Academy of Iron Castle wants to borrow your Gryphon Army for a while. They will give you a certain reward.¡± True enough, seeing Fang Yuan pretending to be puzzled, He Liwei knew that he would not lend it out easily. After all, it was a precious gold pet beast. ¡°What¡¯s the reward?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°They have paid attention to your research results. It seems that your evolutionary breeding fluid needs spiritual herbs, and this kind of spiritual herb can not be cultivated everywhere but at spiritual fields. Coincidentally, Iron Castle Military Academy has a military supply spiritual field that provides logistics. If you are willing to provide the gryphon army and solve the crisis perfectly, this military supply spiritual field can be rented to you at the lowest price. What do you think?¡± Before He Liwei came, he had already been told that money is meaningless to such a strong person, only a precious resource like the military supply spiritual field can be used in exchange. Spiritual grass? Wasn¡¯t that an important ingredient for the evolution potion that Zhao Ren gave him? He had already used up the previous evolution potion. If he could make another batch of evolution potions, then¡­ all of his pet beasts could be upgraded to a higher grade. He could even own a intermediate-grade platinum iron gryphon. Xiao Jin seemed to have felt his master¡¯s call. He flew to his side and rubbed his head against his hand. It had been with Ah Li for a long time, and it had learned to please humans. ¡°Is this a platinum-grade iron gryphon?¡± He Liwei stood beside Xiao Jin and felt the deterrence force brought by the iron gryphon. It was far more shocking than any pet beast he had seen before. ¡°Of course. Instructor He, as a hot-blooded youth, it is our duty to serve the country and protect the common people. I will gather the Gryhon Army now and follow you to the border. What do you think?¡± ¡°Okay.¡± He Liwei was extremely happy. This was his goal. ¡°But it¡¯s too slow to take the car. Instructor he, you don¡¯t mind taking a ride with me, do you?¡± Fang Yuan smiled. He Liwei was both regretful and excited because at this moment, he was sitting on the gryphon with Fang Yuan. And this platinum-grade gryphon leader was surrounded by a group of nearly a hundred gryphons ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Under Fang Yuan¡¯s command, the Gryphon Army rushed toward the southern border at an alarming speed. Seeing this, the people on the ground all took out their phones to take photos and videos in an attempt to record this spectacular scene. Riding a gryphon was a cool thing to begin with. The legend of riding a gryphon king was even more unbelievable. Chapter 65 - Gryphon Legion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Since they were dealing with army ants, there was no need to use other ground pet beasts. The strength of gryphon was sufficient. After dropping He Liwei off, Fang Yuan immediately led the gryphon legion to the front line. The scene had even shocked the general. ¡°A young man can actually control an iron gryphon legion. How strong is he actually? If only he could be used by us!¡± The general sighed. Their military academy was not short of pet beast talent, but they had never seen such an outstanding person. Previously, the commander thought of roping him in but failed. Although He Liwei didn¡¯t say it out loud, the general could feel the thoughts in his heart. On the arrival of the gryphon legion, army ant was not brainless. Army ants were social creatures. Some used their antennae to look at the sky and could feel a special aura. The others felt that the situation was not good, even the army ants that were about to climb up the wall of the fortress did not bother to continue climbing. They used the unique frequency of the army ants to call out to their companions. After receiving the signal from their leader, a swarm of army ants aimed at the sky and spat out acid. Flying at a low altitude, the gryphons were about to use the wind spike but the acid was sprayed on their feathers. They were injured. Seeing that the army ants could actually use long-range attacks, Fang Yuan immediately ordered the gryphon legion to increase their flying height. As the army ants were still spitting acid and didn¡¯t hit the gryphons, the acid fell from the sky and landed onto their companions, corroding their bodies. The army ants which bodies corroded gave off the smell of melted iron when their shells were melting. Due to this unexpected change, the army ants began to run riot. ¡°What a retarded creature. It¡¯s a waste of strength.¡± Riding on Xiao Jin¡¯s body, Fang Yuan was thinking that although the demonized pet beasts were more powerful and dangerous than the ordinary pet beasts, their intelligence did not increase. They were completely suppressed in this kind of battle. The army ant leader began to command again, asking them to immediately stop spraying acid and begin to stack up one ant after another. Fang Yuan retracted his initial opinion. They were not simple retards, but had a lower IQ than retards. To ascend to the sky by stacking, wasn¡¯t this just whimsical? However, very quickly, Fang Yuan discovered that the army ants were doing something that he did not expect. It was to stack six army ants and the seventh army ant would be thrown high up in the sky by the sixth army ant. This way, it could pounce on a gryphon. If Xiao Jin hadn¡¯t commanded the little gryphon to leave in time, it would have been in trouble. Soon the army ant ended up in a miserable state. It got too high up and fell to the ground which resulted a huge hole in its body. It wriggled a few times and then stopped moving. Seeing this, Fang Yuan decided to end the battle quickly. These ants looked like they were messing around, but in reality, they were trying different ways to fight against their enemies in the sky. This was a sign of intelligence. Furthermore, it could be seen that most of the army ants were without consciousness. Only the army ant leader who was in charge of commanding was their soul. Realizing that this move was ineffective, the army ant leader thought of a new method. It was to let the army ants climb onto the army ants¡¯ bodies and spit acid to attack. Fang Yuan just wanted to find out the strength of the army ants. Since he already knew their abilities and fighting methods, he no longer showed mercy. The army ants were powerful because, just like their name, they were only powerful when they became an army. Since he already had the gryphon legion, he no longer needed the ant army. So, let¡¯s start the slaughter! ¡°Xiao Jin, command everyone to use gale to attack the army ants.¡± This was because the army ants didn¡¯t have vision. Their strong close combat ability and sand kicking skill couldn¡¯t be used anymore. The 99 gryphons of the gryphon legion used the gale skill at the same time. Perhaps this was because they were born on the same day, they had an unparalleled tacit understanding and used the gale skill at the same time. The effect was like a super tornado. The army ants were carried into the air by the wild wind, lost their balance, and fell to the ground. They either heavily broke their shells or landed on their companions, killing both at the same time. Seeing the army ants die one after another, Fang Yuan kept receiving messages from the pet beasts, ¡°Gryphon No.1 has been upgraded to level 3, and Gryphon No. 2 has been upgraded to level 3¡­¡± This was one of the reasons why Fang Yuan came here. On the other side, the people of the iron castle were very excited when they saw the army ants being defeated by the gryphon legion. Finally the disaster scene where they were afraid of did not happen. The young man in front of them and his gryphon legion once again saved the border. Seeing that the army ants were in a bad situation, the leader of the army ants, as the only pet beast with consciousness, prepared to drill into the ground to escape. ¡°Ah Li,¡± Fang Yuan summoned Ah Li and said, ¡°Use your fox claws to attack the army ant.¡± Ah Li stood up angrily and used its fox claws to attack the army ant. The army ant was about to drill into the ground, but was controlled by an unknown emotion and rushed towards Ah Li. Ah Li immediately activated his wind chasing skill and ran faster than the ant. It then ran out of the sight of the ant. At this moment, Xiao Jin¡¯s ultimate skill had already been prepared. ¡°Gale!¡± The army ant leader was directly torn apart by Xiao Jin. The lethality of the platinum grade gryphon¡¯s skill was not something that a gold grade gryphon could compare to. At this moment, the students who had arrived late walked out of the crowd and jumped onto the platform above the fortress, looking at everything that was happening in front of them. After a moment of silence, the crowd erupted into a wave of applause. The army ant disaster had been resolved perfectly. Just they were about to welcome the hero, they saw a youth sitting on a gryphon. With a wave of his hand, he and the gryphons flew in the same direction, and that direction was the command center! The students were shocked and quickly called for the soldiers to defend and protect the general. However, when they thought about it, it seemed that the gryphon legion and the army ants were fighting because of the general¡¯s order. That was why they were able to eliminate their opponents so cleanly. 100 figures were constantly flying in the air and crisscrossing each other. They were like migratory birds flying south and migrating back and forth. However, these were not migratory birds. Instead, they were iron gryphons that had strong offensive abilities, and they were extremely powerful. Their performance to the army ants just now was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. An iron gryphon might only be very powerful, but a group of iron gryphons were able to kill the army ants that were known as the pets of the group battle. This kind of strength could not help but make people hold their breath. Fortunately, such a young man was not their enemy. The flying gryphons in the sky received waves of applause for their nimble and gorgeous movements. After receiving the news of victory from the front, the commander created a lively and jubilant atmosphere. ¡°General, I hope you can fulfill your promise.¡± No one expected that Fang Yuan¡¯s first sentence when he saw the general was actually to ask for a reward, which made everyone present shocked. Chapter 66 - A Hundredfold Spiritual Fiel Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°This is our spiritual field. As there is no war for the time being, we can rent it to you. The rent is supposed to be 50 million per year. However, considering the army ant crisis that you just solved at the border, we won¡¯t charge you.¡± He Liwei brought Fang Yuan to the spiritual field of Iron Castle Academy. Spiritual herbs could be grown here. However, in accordance with the locations of the spiritual fields, the spiritual herbs grown would have different grade. According to He Liwei, high-grade gold spiritual herbs could be grown here. It was a rare spiritual field. High-grade gold might be attractive to ordinary people, but not to an advanced player like Fang Yuan, who owned a large number of mid- grade gold pet beasts. The evolution potion produced by high-grade gold spiritual herbs could only allow pets to level up to high grade gold at most. Through his system, he could evolve to peak grade gold, but it was still not enough. However, Fang Yuan had other plans. He squatted on the ground and touched the spiritual field. [ Ding. Spiritual Field detected. Fertility level: Level 3, high-grade gold. ] [ Do you want to increase by a hundredfold? ] [ The host can choose from the following ways for the increase. ] [ First, give up the hundredfold increase and obtain a grade 3 spiritual field to produce high-grade gold spiritual herbs. ] [ Second, increase the quality of your spiritual field by a hundredfold and obtain a grade 4 spiritual field to produce peak-grade gold spiritual herbs. ] [ Third, increase the production of your spiritual field by a hundredfold and obtain a grade 3 spiritual field to produce high-grade gold spiritual herbs by a hundredfold increase. ] It really worked. Fang Yuan secretly rejoiced, while He Liwei did not see any problems at all. Choose [ 100-fold increase in quality ] ! Ding. [ Congratulations, host, for obtaining a grade-4 spiritual field, producing a peak-grade gold spiritual grass. ] ¡°Although I know that you want a higher-grade spiritual herb, this is the only piece of the military use spiritual field that is currently available. I hope you can understand.¡± He Liwei saw Fang Yuan squat down and close his eyes, thinking that he was not satisfied, so he explained. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Then can you give me some spiritual herb seeds?¡± ¡°Spiritual fields don¡¯t need seeds.¡± He Liwei smiled and said, ¡°The reason why spiritual fields are called spiritual fields is that they can absorb spiritual energy and automatically produce spiritual herbs. It¡¯s completely determined by the fertility of the spiritual fields themselves.¡± ¡°Okay, I got it.¡± Fang Yuan had never grown a field before. He originally thought that he could strengthen the seeds a hundred times, then maybe his legion could directly break through to the peak of platinum. True enough, there was no shortcut to take. It was better to take it step by step. He had already planned that when the spiritual herbs grew, all the pet beasts would be upgraded to low-grade platinum. Then, he would challenge the arcane realm. Perhaps he could find a way to let the pet beasts upgrade faster. ¡°How long will it take for the spiritual herb to grow?¡± Fang Yuan asked again. ¡°Usually a month, but this spiritual field has been planted for a period of time. You should be able to harvest it in about a week,¡± He Liwei said with a smile. ¡°Okay. I¡¯m very satisfied with the reward,¡± Fang Yuan replied. In fact, He Liwei was worried that Fang Yuan would complain that the reward was too small. After all, Fang Yuan was the one who saved the entire farm. Even if he asked for the best farmland, they had no reason to refuse. Fang Yuan decided to live in the farm for a period of time. And it was this decision that made Fang Yuan¡¯s days very difficult. After learning that Fang Yuan had settled down in the farm, countless young men and women came to admire his reputation. ¡°Are you the commander of the gryphon legion? You¡¯re so young. Can you give me an autograph?¡± ¡°Can I touch your gryphon?¡± ¡°Do you have a girlfriend? No? Now you have one!¡± Fang Yuan slammed the door of the wooden house. He just wanted to be alone for a while. However, the shock that the gryphon legion gave to people was too obvious. Even Fang Yuan himself was shocked. Especially that team battle skill, gale. When 100 gryphons used gale, the damage and visual effects were too shocking. It turned out that other than combination skills, there was also a skill called Legion Skill. Just like how army ants fought, an army ant was very weak and could not beat most pet beasts of the same level. However, when 10,000 army ants fought against 10,000 pet beasts of the same level.., the winner would definitely be the army ants, because their skills were born for group battles. Unfortunately, they met the gryphon legion, whose level and grade surpassed theirs. They had heard of the gryphon legion before, but because the price of gryphon was expensive and hard to come by, very few people actually formed the gryphon legion. He was the first person at the moment. During this period of time in the farm, the happiest person was none other than Ah Li. Ah Li had always been a beautiful fox. She deliberately posed in the farm, showing some elegance, and it attracted countless people. Many came to see the gryphon would take out their phones to take her picture. Looking at the audience below, almost all of them would raise their phones to take pictures, she kept posing for the photoshoot and seemed to enjoy the feeling of being a star. Ah Li¡¯s performance was useful, as it had attracted people¡¯s attention. This way, no one would continue to bother Fang Yuan¡­ He was looking after the spiritual herbs every day, waiting for it to grow. Although the spiritual herb was of peak-grade gold, it did not hinder Fang Yuan who had the hundredfold enhanced system. Low-grade platinum spiritual herbs were easily available. When that time came, it would not be the gold gryphon legion, but the platinum gryphon legion. That kind of shocking feeling was really something that people could not wait to see. ¡­ Wait! Why was the spiritual herbs over there already growing, but not here? Just when Fang Yuan noticed this magical phenomenon, he saw Ah Li licking its fur. There seemed to be a spiritual herb that had not been chewed at the corner of its mouth. ¡°Hey, this is not for you to eat! You glutton!¡± Seeing Ah Li eat spiritual herb without his permission, Fang Yuan was furious. Ah Li was scolded by Fang Yuan. It widened its eyes and lost the desire to continue licking its fur. It stood rooted to the ground in a daze, but its eyes were wide open, and it looked like it was about to cry. It was heartbreaking. The crowd immediately surrounded Fang Yuan: ¡°What¡¯s the big deal eating two spiritual herbs? Didn¡¯t you like to eat when you were young?¡± ¡°Why are you so fierce? You scared the child!¡± ¡°How much is the spiritual herbs? I¡¯ll pay you!¡± The crowd looked at each other, as if the one who was wrong was still Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan stared fiercely at Ah Li, only to see her stick out her tongue but resumed her delicate and pitiful appearance. So the fox was really such a cunning and charming creature. Fang Yuan silently remembered it in his heart. You would have a good time in the future. I hope you would be strong enough. He revealed a smile at random, but this smile made Ah Li shudder. So, she stopped acting cute and ran back into the house. ¡°Little Fox, don¡¯t go. I haven¡¯t finished taking your private photos yet!¡± A man who looked like an otaku holding a cell phone said resentfully. ¡°Why are you taking photos? Go home and put on your student uniform to take photos of yourself.¡± Fang Yuan ordered his guests to leave. From tomorrow onwards, he had to tell the military to take control of this area. Otherwise, the spiritual field would be destroyed by the fans sooner or later. Chapter 67 - The Commercial Value of Spiritual Herbs Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The morning sun shone through the glass door to the hall. The air was emitting an ambience of laziness.. The spiritual herbs in the spiritual field were clearly visible. Fang Yuan was thinking that he only needed to wait one more day to obtain the spiritual herbs and then return to the academy to cultivate a new evolution potion. When that time came, his first-aid bee queen, the iris spider king, and so on could all evolve to platinum grade. At that time, his pet beasts would not be something that ordinary people could hope to achieve. Just as Fang Yuan was daydreaming, he received a call from the school. This was not the voice of any teacher or classmate, but it seemed that he had heard it frequently. ¡°Who is it?¡± Fang Yuan asked impolitely. After all, phone fraud was quite rampant nowadays. He could not just take the words from the caller that he was really calling from the school. The caller at the other end coughed awkwardly. He introduced himself as the principal, Yao Yong, who was also the gatekeeper of the arcane realm. No wonder it sounded familiar but yet not really so. The principal had personally called Fang Yuan, which showed that it was a very important matter. At least from the principal¡¯s point of view, it was indeed an important matter. ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯ve been away from the school for nearly a month. It¡¯s time for you to come back and prepare for the exam. Although you¡¯re in the limelight everywhere, don¡¯t forget that the student¡¯s fundamental is still to study,¡± Yao Yong said earnestly. The college entrance exam was a nightmare for many students. But who would have thought that such an unremarkable student in school was now a hero who had helped the military to defeat the enemy twice in a row. Even his classmates and even his form teacher, as well as many teachers who had not cared about Fang Yuan in the past, they would never have thought that Fang Yuan would become the hope of the entire school today! Even if many of the students with outstanding results were close to full marks in the science and arts subjects in the school, they would not be able to influence the school as much as the current Fang Yuan. It was because in just a short span of three days, sixty-seven academies had called the principal, requesting to make an exception and admit Fang Yuan. Among them were even the well-known academies throughout the country: The Yan Country¡¯s Science and Technology University, The Arcane Realm¡¯s Aristocrat School, and The Iron Castle Military Academy, the three top academies. The three top universities had already sent people to the small Chuxin City, to make an exception for Fang Yuan to be admitted! Fang Yuan was not aware of this. He had only promised the principal that he would rush back to the school the day after tomorrow. After harvesting the spiritual herbs, he would have to go back and concoct the evolution potion. As long as the evolution potion was successfully prepared, on one hand, he could evolve his pet beasts, on the other hand, there was a huge business opportunity hidden in this: The evolution of the pet beast¡¯s quality. As long as he had this potion, even if he raised low-grade pet beasts, he could still raise them into medium-grade pet beasts! For a beast trainer, was there anything more tempting than this? A student who had a bronze pet was already considered outstanding among the students. But now, with this kind of potion, these outstanding students could be casually nurtured under Fang Yuan¡¯s hands. Thinking of the huge benefits behind this, Fang Yuan¡¯s passion surged, as if his blood was boiling, and he was exceptionally excited! He roughly calculated that at present, he could only cultivate over 200 portions of evolution potion. Besides the 100 portions that he had to keep for use, the remaining 100 portions could be sold through auction. And the spiritual field could be harvested many times a year. He could harvest it once in three months, and then prepare another potion. Once every three months. Once was 200 portions. Even if each portion of the evolution potion was only sold for one million, it would still be 200 million! This spiritual field was his cash cow. ¡°This is the benefit of having strength. As long as one is strong enough, they will continuously obtain precious resources. These resources will be used to cultivate pet beasts, and they will become stronger. This is the Law of Nature!¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes lit up. At this rate, it would not be long before he could successfully build his invincible pet legion, and most of all the diamond pet that he hoped for would be obtained sooner or later! As long as he entered a gold rank and above advanced level arcane realm, he would have a chance to breed a platinum pet beast. With the system¡¯s support and the evolution potion, the diamond pet beast was just around the corner! However, when the daydream was over, what greeted his eyes was a little fox that was staring at him with its crooked neck. ¡°You have to increase your combat power as soon as possible. Although now the main combat power is Xiao Jin, and its bloodline suppression is almost invincible at this level, if you leave the academy, it might not be so simple.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes flashed, his long-term victory did not make him relax in his pursuit of strength. He still needed to become stronger. ¡°Fang Yuan, how do you feel about staying in the Iron Castle Military Academy during this period of time?¡± It was a pet theory teacher surnamed Li. Recently, he often came to see Fang Yuan and exchanged experiences with him on pet training. Fang Yuan had a good impression of him. ¡°Not bad, but there aren¡¯t many girls.¡± Fang Yuan avoided talking about important topics and wanted to change the topic in a joking manner. He knew that Iron Castle Military Academy definitely wanted to take the opportunity to build a relationship with him, either to find out the reason why he got so many gold and platinum gryphons, or to persuade him to join the academy. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t dislike Iron Castle Military Academy because he also admired the soldiers who could protect their motherland. However, for Fang Yuan, he didn¡¯t study pets in order to become the best in the world. It should be said that he just wanted to be the best in the world. His main purpose was to follow his father¡¯s footsteps in the world of archaeology. Professor Li smiled and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re still young. Besides, it¡¯s much easier to be with pets than people.¡± After saying that, Professor Li reached out his hand and approached Xiao Jin. Fang Yuan was just about to shout, ¡°Danger!¡± However, Xiao Jin closed his eyes and rubbed against Professor Li¡¯s hand. ¡°The reason why pet beasts are called pet beasts is that they not only have powerful combat strength, but they also have a different personality compared to humans.¡± Professor Li stroked the gryphon¡¯s head. This was the first time Fang Yuan had seen someone who was not him being so intimate with Xiao Jin. He didn¡¯t know what method he used. ¡°Well, I don¡¯t have to persuade you to stay in the Iron Castle Military Academy.¡± Professor Li adjusted his glasses and said, ¡°But I think you¡¯re quite interesting. If you have the chance to cooperate with me, we should be able to make a great contribution to the research of pet beasts.¡± Fang Yuan looked at Professor Li¡¯s disappearing figure and checked on Xiao Jin again. ¡°Xiao Jin, are you controlled by your mind? Xiao Jin, blink your eyes if you¡¯re threatened.¡± Fang Yuan touched Xiao Jin¡¯s body, trying to figure out why the ¡°loyal¡± pet beast was so obedient to a stranger. In the end, he found nothing. There was something that Professor Li had researched. If he had the chance, he would like to see the results of his research. If it was his research that had increased his favorability, it would be easy for Fang Yuan to capture any pet beast in the future. Fang Yuan calculated in his mind. However, it was impossible for him to join the Iron Castle Military Academy. As for which academy he wanted to join, he would think about it when he returned to the school. Looking at the spiritual herb that was about to mature, Fang Yuan once again fell into a daydream. Chapter 68 - Fighting Over Fang Yuan Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio When he returned to school, Fang Yuan did not ride the griffin like he did at that time. Instead, he obediently took the train back to school. He did not want to be in the limelight. Instead, he just wanted to quietly make a fortune. The more famous he was, the greater the chance of him being overturned was. Fang Yuan knew the consequences of being plotted. Now that he was in the limelight too much, he had to keep a low profile for a period of time. When he returned to the school, he first reported to the class teacher and told him that he was back. When the students saw Fang Yuan, they all surrounded him. ¡°Fang Yuan, where did you get so many griffins? There are also platinum-level griffins, can you give me one?¡± ¡°Are you kidding me? A pet worth 100 million is given away just like that? Why don¡¯t you give your father¡¯s company to Fang Yuan?¡± Another girl heard the words of this playboy and stood up to refute on Fang Yuan¡¯s behalf. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you think I can be your girlfriend?¡± Before Fang Yuan could be grateful, he saw the girl make a charming gesture and approach him. He felt a chill. ¡°Okay, students, stop fooling around.¡± The class teacher¡¯s voice came from the door. Hearing that Fang Yuan had returned, the class teacher also felt proud. ¡°Fang Yuan, come over here for a moment.¡± Fang Yuan was thinking about how to escape from the group of students, so he showed a grateful expression to his teacher upon hearing that. The teacher said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I know that you have always had good theoretical results, and your actual combat ability is top-notch. Therefore, I hope that you will prepare well for the college entrance examination and bring glory to our class and our school! What do you think?¡± Just as the teacher was encouraging Fang Yuan, the principal ran over. ¡°What college entrance exam are you preparing for? It¡¯s a waste of talent.¡± The principal, Yao Yong, criticized the teacher for a few sentences. He then revealed a loving expression and said to fang yuan, ¡°Fang Yuan, come with me for a moment.¡± Ah? What was happening? Why was everyone calling him today? However, he did not dare to not say no to the principal in the school. Upon reaching the principal¡¯s office, he realized that the principal was not the only person in the principal¡¯s office. There were also three people with completely different styles of clothing sitting inside. The first person was a fatty. His mouth pouted longer than his nose, and he had a square face with layers of fat piled up to form a double chin. He was fully dressed in branded clothes. When he saw Fang Yuan, he was the first to stand up and introduce himself, ¡°Hello, Fang Yuan. I am the director of the admissions office of the Yan Guo science and Technology University in Shanghai. Our university is located at the center of the economy, and our theoretical research is definitely in the leading position in the country. Your research on evolution potions has piqued our interest. If you study in our university, we will definitely be able to form a win-win situation. Even if you are not a scientist, with our connections, you will still be able to do business with ease.¡± Fang Yuan had not even had the chance to speak when the second person stood up. The person¡¯s face was fair, and he had long hair like an artist¡¯s, but it did not appear greasy or dry. Under the sun, it shone with a golden luster, and the arc of his smile was perfect. He was dressed in a straight suit, inadvertently revealing an elegant and dignified temperament. ¡°Hello, Fang Yuan. Please do not believe the words of this teacher. In terms of connections, our Jiang City¡¯s mystical realm aristocrat school says that no one dares to claim to be number one. The children of the various great clans of the fire country are all studying in our school. ¡°Earlier on, Fang Yuan, your battle in the mystical realm made us especially admire you. Our School is just like the name of the school, possessing a large number of mystical realms. ¡°As long as you come, these mystical realms can be challenged at will. The treasures that can be obtained are not things that businesses can compare to.¡± After saying that, he even showed a disdainful expression towards the fatty. Fang Yuan was indeed a little interested in the mystical realms, but just as he was about to speak, he saw a third person stand up as well. This person was dressed in a fitting military uniform with a belt around his waist. His grizzled white hair did not make him appear tired. Instead, it made him appear even more heroic. ¡°A talent like Fang Yuan is naturally a person with foresight. He has resolved the pet beast disaster at the border several times, and every time, he would fly away with a whisk. You mortals only know how to corrupt the minds of young people with money and power. A jade like Fang Yuan should join the Iron Castle Military Academy of our Yao Capital to serve the country and make contributions!¡± After saying that, he walked up to Fang Yuan and shook his hand. The principal was overjoyed. These three schools were the top-ranked schools in the country. They had come to the town to recruit Fang Yuan at the same time, which showed how much importance they attached to him. He had already arranged for the reporters to wait for Fang Yuan, for he wanted to release a press release to let the whole town and the neighboring town know how powerful their school was. When that time came, the recruitment would not be a problem! He and the three recruitment teachers looked closely at Fang Yuan, waiting for him to make a decision. Seeing that he still did not make a statement, they took out their most valuable treasures at the same time. The director of the enrollment office of the Yan Guo Science and Technology University in Shanghai said, ¡°Come to our school. We will give you a set of gold-tier trainer equipment. Moreover, we will give you a 50% discount on all school fees!¡± The director of the enrollment office of the Noble School in the mystery land then said, ¡°So Stingy. Come to our school. Not only will you be given a set of gold-tier trainer equipment, but you will also be given a set of pet cultivation mixture. As for the tuition fee, it will be completely free! Next, the dean of the admissions office of the Military College of Iron Castle said, ¡°Fang Yuan, if you come to our school, I will provide you with everything they offer. I will also give you a gold pet. Not only will you not receive tuition fees, but I will also give you a scholarship! The three deans became more and more excited as they talked. They almost started fighting in the office. ¡°You only know how to brag. Why don¡¯t we come to the virtual arena to have a round?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s do it. Who¡¯s afraid of you? Let¡¯s add each other as friends.¡± ¡°Alright. Fang Yuan won¡¯t make a decision so soon anyway. I¡¯ll take care of the few of you first.¡± The principal looked at the scene in front of him and found it more and more comical. Finally, he asked fang yuan, ¡°These three are the top trainer universities in the country. Do you have a plan now?¡± ¡°Me?¡± Fang Yuan finally had the chance to speak. He said, ¡°I¡¯m not interested in money, power, or even glory. The reason I became a trainer is because I want to inherit my father¡¯s will.¡± ¡°Who is your father?¡± the principal asked. For a powerful student like Fang Yuan, his father should be very famous. ¡°My father is a very powerful and amazing trainer. He is doing archaeology all over the world. He wants to know the ultimate answer of the pet era, particularly how humans and pets coexisted peacefully,¡± Fang Yuan replied. Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s serious expression, the headmaster thought for a moment before he uttered, ¡°Actually, other than these three prestigious institutions, there is another one that suits your target the best.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Fang Yuan had initially thought that these three institutions were already the best choice. He had not thought that the true big shot hidden behind the imperial three families would actually be someone else. ¡°That¡¯s Yan Guo¡¯s true trump card school , namely The Secret Pavilion,¡± the headmaster said with an unprecedented seriousness on his face. Chapter 69 - The Pavilion of Divination Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The pavilion of Divination was Yan Guo¡¯s biggest mystery realm tower rather than a university. Compared to the other mystery realm towers, the pavilion was more like an independent operation, where the trainers¡¯ food, clothing, shelter, and transportation were all organized within the tower. It was precisely because of the special characteristics of the pavilion of divination that the number of people who were recruited outside every year was extremely low. In the entire country, only the top students had a chance of being admitted. Therefore, everyone who could enter the pavilion of divination was either a genius or a rare talent. Entering the pavilion of divination was equivalent to walking into another world of trainers. After listening to the president¡¯s description, Fang Yuan thought that this was the University of his dreams. ¡°If you ask me, it¡¯s better to choose the three major universities. You¡¯re still young and should enjoy a good life. After graduating from the university, you can follow in your father¡¯s footsteps.¡± The principal¡¯s words were from the bottom of his heart, because even though Fang Yuan had some achievements now, he was still very young. He hoped that Fang Yuan could get along with his peers and have better memories of the school. Although the pavilion was a school in name, it was exceptionally cruel. Every student who entered the school was a genius, but after entering, there was a possibility that they being at the bottom of the class. This kind of psychological gap might cause an ordinary child to have a mental breakdown. However, Fang Yuan hoped to fight against an ultimate expert every day. Only then would he be able to succeed as soon as possible. Moreover, he had a 100 times amplification system. The higher the level of the mystic realm, the higher the level of the pet beast that could be obtained. ¡°Principal, I want to enter the Secret Pavilion. Can you tell me what grades and certificates the secret pavilion needs?¡± The principal was obviously mentally prepared. He slowly said, ¡°To enter the secret pavilion, the college entrance examination results are secondary. First, you have to obtain the Six Mystic Realms certifications.¡± ¡°Mystic Realm Certifications?¡± Fang Yuan was extremely curious. He only knew that the obelisk could go to the secret realm, but he did not know what the Mystic Realm Certifications were. The principal then explained, ¡°The so-called Mystic Realm Certifications were a kind of proof, which represents the recognition of the Mystic Realm. When you complete the mission of the Mystic Realm, you will be able to obtain points. Apart from exchanging points for the materials to level up and evolve, you can also exchange points for the certifications. However, the points required were usually very high, which were relatively difficult to attain. ¡°Mystical Realm Certifications are not so easy to obtain. You must have a pet with all attributes in order to have the chance to complete it¡­¡± The principal closed his eyes and began to introduce. ¡°Okay, thank you!¡± Before the principal could finish his sentence, Fang Yuan had already disappeared. He remembered that there was an obelisk of the Earth Mystical Realm by the side of the mountain beside the small town, and he could not wait to challenge it. ¡°Hello, are you here for business?¡± The receptionist of the trainer¡¯s Association asked Fang Yuan with a smile. This young lady had worked in this pet club for three years. Based on her personal experience, a teenager of this age would most likely come here to ask about how to obtain a pet. She had even imagined that after explaining the method of obtaining a pet to this teenager, he would definitely show a regretful expression, then thank her and leave. This was because almost every day, such a youth would appear in the Pet Guild Hall. She was already used to the explanation work that would satisfy the youth¡¯s fantasies. ¡°I want to challenge the mystic realm of Earth. Do I need to go through the formalities?¡± Fang Yuan asked directly. ¡°Hello, do you want to understand the method of obtaining a pet? There are three ways to obtain a pet: school, Mystic Realm, and the wild,¡± she smiled and answered mechanically, but suddenly realized that something was wrong. ¡°What? You want to challenge the Mystical Realm of Earth?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. Although there were occasional trainers who came to the pet world to apply to challenge the mystical realm, there were very few children his age. However, she remembered something. Looking at Fang Yuan¡¯s face, she asked doubtfully, ¡°Do you want to apply to join the Pavilion of Divination?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s life was originally very dull. Ever since he became a trainer, the more he realized how weak he was, so he also planned to get a powerful pet as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would be at a loss when he encountered a strong enemy in the future. Therefore, he decided to challenge the Pavilion of Divination, which was the most difficult one. He needed the Mystic Realm Certifications, which was why he came here. Seeing Fang Yuan nod his head, the lady had an extremely funny feeling in her heart. ¡°Every year, hundreds and thousands of trainers come here to challenge the Mystic realm of Earth. Our realm is undoubtedly the most promising and dangerous in this city. If you want to get the Mystic Realm Certifications, you have to enter the realm together with your pet companions. You have to accept missions of different levels in the Mystic Realm, and only by completing the missions can you obtain points. Moreover, the amount of time everyone stays in the realm¡­¡± ¡°Stop, stop, Stop! All you have to do is tell me how to enter the Mystic Realm of Earth.¡± Fang Yuan was irritated by the receptionist chattering non-stop. He thus broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly stopped her. To Fang Yuan, the most important thing was to fully utilize his time. And judging from the speed of the explanation just now, she would probably not get to the main point if she did not speak for half an hour. He was not going to listen to her story. The receptionist had just started to introduce the story of the secret realm when she was interrupted by Fang Yuan. She felt a little unhappy. But this was her job, so she continued, ¡°If you want to challenge the Mystic Realm, you will see a black obelisk at the end of the road. As long as you have an earth-type pet beast, you can summon it and you can enter the realm. Once you enter, don¡¯t run around. There are dangerous earth-type pets everywhere. I¡¯ll give you a map now. The map has the time you can stay in the mystic realm. When the time is up, you will be teleported out of the mystic realm. If you want to go in again, you¡¯ll have to wait until next month.¡± ¡°Bring your pet to register. I¡¯ll give you the map. Good luck, Young Man!¡± ¡°I see.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. It was not like he had never been to the secret realm before. Why did he change his way of playing? ¡°As for the earth-type pet¡­¡± Fang Yuan immediately thought of his Titan Bear. He just did not know if it was too exaggerated. The Titan bear sensed Fang Yuan¡¯s summon and appeared in the arena. ¡°The students who want to enter the pavilion of heavenly secrets are indeed not simple.¡± The receptionist smiled and handed a piece of paper to Fang Yuan, asking him to write his name. Then, she handed him a map. The map showed that the arcane realm was a thousand-meter-high mountain. The moment Fang Yuan touched the map, the system activated: [Ding. Arcane realm blueprint detected. Map level: Level 2. Duration: 24 hours] [Do you wish to proceed with the 100-fold enhancement?] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods:] [First, give up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain a level 2 map to enter a Level 2 Mystic Realm of Earth.] [Second, obtain a level 3 map to enter a level 3 Mystic Realm of Earth with the 100-fold enhancement quality.] [Third, obtain a level 2 map to enter a level 3 Mystic Realm of Earth with the 100-fold enhancement time. The duration is 240 hours. ] Previously, when he challenged the level 2 Mystic Realm, he was already able to capture a gold-tier pet. What would happen to the level 3 mystic realm? He was excited to experience it. Fang Yuan chose the level 3 Earth Mystic Realm and placed the map in his pocket. He then walked towards the obelisk and disappeared after touching the obelisk. Chapter 70 - Challenging the Mystic Realm of Eart Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After entering the Mystic Realm, Fang Yuan found himself standing at the foot of the mountain. ¡°Young man, are you here to challenge the Mystic Realm?¡± A old man said as he stood in the wooden house at the foot of the mountain. Fang Yuan found it amusing. Obviously, he was not here for sightseeing. However, the thought of respecting the old and loving the young still had a deep impact. Fang yuan nodded and answered, ¡°Yes. May I ask if you can exchange points here?¡± ¡°Of course,¡± the old man said, ¡°I¡¯m the guardian of this arcane realm. You can call me Old Man Tu. After going up the mountain from here, you will encounter many earth-type pet beasts. Here, you can only use earth-type pet beasts to fight. If you summon pet beasts of other attributes, you will be expelled from the arcane realm. Be careful.¡± ¡°Why is there such a setting?¡± Fang Yuan did not understand. He was not a simple trainer, and it was not his style to follow others¡¯ orders blindly. ¡°Because this Mystic Realm is a cultivation journey to improve your earth-type pet beast¡¯s strength, not a simple battle,¡± said Old Man Tu. ¡°Follow me first.¡± ¡°Okay, but you¡¯d better hurry up. I can only stay in the mystic realm for 24 hours.¡± This was a level three mystic realm. Twenty-four hours here was equivalent to about one and a half hours outside the mystic realm. The passage of time was different, which was also the mystery of the arcane realm. ¡°Hehe, young people nowadays really don¡¯t have patience,¡± Old Man Tu said as he led Fang Yuan into the small wooden house. The booth inside the wooden house was filled with densely packed materials. Fang Yuan took a liking to the material [Spiritual Armor] at a glance. It was a tool for his [Titan Armored Bear] to evolve. Fang Yuan wanted to reach out to touch it, but he found nothing. [Insufficient points. Exchange failed.] A system notification sounded in the small wooden house. Old Man Tu chuckled. ¡°Young man, if you want to exchange for a tool, you have to complete the mission first and obtain points before you can exchange for it.¡± ¡°How many points does this cost?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°The Spiritual Armor is a material for the armored bear to evolve its agility attribute. It requires 10,000 points. Other than agility attribute, there are also [Red Bear Claw] , [Armored Heart] , and so on, which have evolved strength attribute, and so on. They all cost 10,000 points. ¡°But you have to think carefully. Each pet can only choose one direction to evolve at a certain level,¡± explained old man Tu. ¡°How do I get points?¡± Fang Yuan could not wait any longer. ¡°When you go to the bar, you will see a list of tasks. After you choose a task, you will be given a task book. When you complete the task, the task book will automatically disappear and be converted into points. It will be automatically recorded in your file,¡± Old Man Tu explained, ¡°I know you don¡¯t want to waste time. Go and read it yourself. You can only accept one task at a time.¡± Fang Yuan stood under the task bar and began to read. [D rank quest: Collect 20 jars of honey. Reward points: 5] [C rank quest: Kill 100 Earth Dogs (low-grade gold). Reward points: 10] [B Rank Quest: Kill the Earth binding spider king (middle-grade gold). Reward Points: 50] [A rank quest: kill the one-eyed Giant Rock Monster (Peak Gold). Reward Points: 100] [S rank quest: defeat the mountain giant (low-grade platinum). Reward points: 500] ¡°Platinum Low-grade Mountain Giant?¡± Fang Yuan had never heard of this pet before. However, the pet world was ever-changing, and it was impossible for anyone to know all the pet beasts. However, it sounded irrational to fight a character called the Mountain Giant on the mountain. ¡°Oh right, young man, there¡¯s one more thing I want to tell you. You will receive a corresponding set of materials for defeating the quest monster. That won¡¯t appear in the reward column.¡± After listening to Old Man Tu¡¯s words, it was obvious that he was trying to tempt him to challenge the highest level Mountain Giant. Fang Yuan looked at the ¡®Earth Realm Certification (level 3)¡¯ on the counter again. It also required 10,000 points. ¡°If you¡¯re lucky, you only need to return 20 times to get the ¡®Earth Realm Certification¡¯. Isn¡¯t that very reasonable?¡± Old Man Tu smiled maliciously. What? If one wanted to win 20 times against a low-grade platinum pet beast, one would have to win against a mid-grade platinum pet beast. However, since he was already here, he couldn¡¯t give up so easily. He thus chose the S-grade mission. A scroll then appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s palm. [Scientific name: Mountain Giant] [Bloodline: Titan] [Quality: Low-grade Platinum] [Attributes: Earth, rock] [Positioning: Attack/defense] [Skills: 1. Rock Toss, 2. Uprooting trees, 3. Petrifying skin] [Personality: Steady] [Likes: None] [Skill description: None] [Reproductive ability: None] What a good no likes, no reproductive ability. It seemed like this pet beast was an emotionless killing machine. Just as the scroll touched him¡­ The system was activated again. [Ding. Mission scroll detected. Map level: Level 3. Mission level: S] [Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement?] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods.] [First, you have to give up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain an S grade mission scroll.] [Second, you have to give up the 100-fold enhancement quality and obtain an SSS grade mission scroll.] [Third, 100 times enhanced time. obtained SSS grade mission scroll. 100 times reward for mission points.] In the past, Fang Yuan would have chosen SSS grade mission scroll. However, when he thought about his gold-pinnacle [Armored Titan Bear] , it would be pretty good if he could defeat a low-tier platinum mountain giant. If the entire platinum high-tier monster were to come, he would probably be beaten into a pancake. He thus chose three or a hundred times the points reward. In that case, after defeating the mountain giant, he would be able to obtain 50,000 points. Regardless of whether it was the materials for the Armored Bear to evolve or the Certification of the Mystic Realm of Earth, he would be able to obtain all of them. Fang Yuan thought that with the hundred times enhanced system, it would be enough to complete a B-grade mission. Nevertheless, he had to challenge the limits of a trainer. Not only did he have to rely on his pet, but he also had to rely on his commanding experience. This cross-level challenge was the biggest test for him. The Mountain Giant was resting in a cave at the top of the mountain. It was a pet that did not compete with the rest of the world, but its strength could never be underestimated. According to the records on the scroll, the giant¡¯s catapult could cause an earthquake special effect. Of course, it was not the kind of earthquake that would cause a house to collapse. Instead, it would stun the target for a period of time and cause the target to lose balance for a long period of time, thereby reducing the combat power by 50% . Alright, it should start now. Fang Yuan summoned the Titan Bear, which had just woken up and appeared to be full of energy. It patted its chest as if it was invincible The Mountain Giant was sleeping in the cave in front of it, as long as¡­ ¡°Titan Bear, use Roar.¡± This was a standard taunt skill. Sure enough, after the Armored Bear growled at the cave, there was a huge commotion. Chapter 71 - Legendary Evolutionary Material Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Rather than saying that there was a huge commotion in the cave, it would be more accurate to say that the cave had collapsed directly. A giant rock that was 18 meters tall stood up straight. In front of him, the Titan Bear was like an underage. Although the Titan Bear was gluttonous and lazy, it was not a coward. It did not show any signs of fear when facing an opponent that was much bigger than it. As the rock cracked, the Mountain Giant squatted down and grabbed a piece that was the size of a titan bear and threw it at the Titan Bear. ¡°Dodge, Titan Bear!¡± Fang Yuan began to command the Titan Bear to fight. At the position of the Titan bear just now, after the rock fell, it was as if the mountain was shaken. This mountain was really unimaginably high in density. If it was another mountain, that strike just now would have caused a landslide. Although there was a difference in grade between the Titan Bear and the Mountain Giant, the giant was a stone-like head. It fought purely based on instinct, and it had powerful skills. ¡°Titan Bear, use Meatball Charge!¡± The Titan Bear rolled itself up and its body grew a little bigger as it rolled toward the giant. The Mountain Giant grabbed a five-meter-thick tree and swung its club at the Titan Bear like It was playing golf. However, it did not succeed. The armored bear still hit the Mountain Giant¡¯s knee, causing it to lose its balance and half-kneel. However, after the armored bear returned to its normal form, it could be seen that it was also severely injured. ¡°I can¡¯t use force against the mountain giant.¡± Fang Yuan thought as he directed the Titan bear to move back and forth, dodging the mountain giant¡¯s attack. Not long after, he finally realized that the mountain giant¡¯s attack method was extremely monotonous, as if the program was written. Every time it charged at the Titan Bear, the giant tree would hit the ground and fall into a period of stiffness. During this period, it was the best time to attack! The Mountain Giant once again waved the giant tree and charged at the Titan Bear, which curled up and rolled to the side. This was what Fang Yuan had taught it. It was to use the meatball impact method to replace escaping and make up for its lack of speed. The Mountain Giant needed about five seconds to pull up the tree on the ground! ¡°Titan Bear, maintain the meatball impact posture and hit its hind legs!¡± The Titan Bear originally wanted to return to its normal position after dodging the attack, but after hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s order, it changed its direction and rammed toward the Mountain Giant¡¯s back. The Mountain Giant was maintaining the posture of leaning forward to uproot the tree, but the impact caused it to lose its balance and fall off the cliff. ¡°Phew.¡± Fang Yuan let out a long breath. Fortunately, this huge rock did not have a brain and was not flexible enough, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of. If he could subdue a Mountain Giant and combine it with the Griffin¡¯s fierce wind attack, he would be invincible in the battle. However, that was just his imagination. Because the mountain giant had already fallen into the valley, the mission scroll also sent a notification saying that he had completed the mission. 50,000 points! It was really a huge amount of awards. What were they waiting for? They should hurry back to the wooden house to buy materials for the Titan Bear¡¯s evolution. Just then, he saw a red stone where the mountain giant had dropped. Was this the material that Old Man Tu had mentioned? He did not know what it was for. He picked it up and immediately received a system notification. [Ding. Red Soul Stone detected. Soul Stone level: Level 3] [Do you wish to receive a 100-fold amplification?] [Host can choose from the following amplification methods.] [First, you will give up the 100-fold enhancement and receive a level 3 Red Soul Stone.] [Second, you will receive a level 5 red soul stone with a 100-fold enhancement quality.] [Third, you will receive a level 3 red soul stone with a 100-fold enhancement effect.] What was the use of a soul stone? It seemed that he would have to go back and ask Old Man Tu. He returned to the wooden house at the foot of the mountain. There were still about six hours before he left the arcane realm. Old Man Tu stood at the door of the wooden house again. He seemed to feel lonely because no one had come recently. When he saw Fang Yuan, he warmly welcomed him and said, ¡°Have you given up on the challenge? Young people should not aim too high. Put the scroll back on the counter and you can receive other missions.¡± However, he was surprised to find that Fang Yuan did not seem to have any scrolls on him. When he came to the wooden house, Fang Yuan walked directly to the booth. ¡°Exchange for [Spiritual Armor], exchange for [Certifications of Mystic Realm of Earth].¡± Exchanging for two valuable items in one go made Old Man Tu¡¯s eyes widen in surprise! ¡°Y-You cheated?¡± Old Man Tu had never seen a person who could complete an s-rank mission in one go and exchange for two items with 10,000 points. ¡°How could you cheat?¡± Fang Yuan looked at Old Man Tu suspiciously. ¡°Aren¡¯t you the one who made the rules?¡± Actually, from the moment he entered, Fang Yuan had discovered that Old Man Tu was different from the others. Old Man Tu lived in the secret realm, and there was nothing to eat in his room. He couldn¡¯t even see where he slept. In addition, there was no concept of day and night in the secret realm, so he deduced that Old Man Tu was actually the guardian of the secret realm. He didn¡¯t really exist, but was a creature like an unknown pet beast. Old Man Tu was shocked. His identity had actually been seen through. He admired the youth before him for his observation and imagination. He had formulated the rules of the third grade Earth Mystic Realm and had responded to the fire country¡¯s call, granting the certification of outstanding trainers and the pet beast¡¯s upgrade reward here. He could feel everything in this space, just like how the rules of a computer were written. How did the youth before him manage to complete an s grade mission and immediately earn 50,000 points? He could not guess at all, but cheating was also impossible. He had lived here for tens of thousands of years, but Fang Yuan had never heard of such a thing. ¡°Alright.¡± Old Man Tu could not think of a reason. He decided to go back and adjust his points, increasing the points required to exchange for items by about two times. Therefore, in the future, those who challenged the Mystic Realm of Earth would encounter a puzzle, which was why the points exchange requirement of the realm was so much higher. Because of this, they had to grind for months before they could exchange for pet evolution materials. After exchanging for [Spiritual Armor] . When the armor appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s hand, a system notification immediately popped up. [Ding. Evolution material detected. Soul Armor: Top-grade gold.] [Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement?] [Host can choose from the following enhancement methods.] [First, you will give up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain a soul armor.] [Second, obtain the soul heavy armor with the 100-fold enhancement quality. ] [Third, obtain the soul armor with the 100-fold enhancement effect and increase the agility index by 100 times.] ¡°What is the Soul Heavy Armor?¡± Fang Yuan asked Old Man Tu. With a smile, Old Man Tu explained, ¡°The Soul Heavy Armor is a high-level soul armor. If the soul armor is the form of the Titan Bear¡¯s agility evolution, then the Soul Heavy Armor is the legendary material that evolves the strength and agility of the Titan Bear at the same time. It can not be exchanged in the shops. Only those who challenge the Armored Bear in a level 4 mystic realm have a chance of dropping the material.¡± Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Fang Yuan holding the legendary evolutionary material, namely the Soul Heavy Armor! Chapter 72 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Compared to the soul armor, Fang Yuan naturally chose the soul heavy armor. The Titan Bear walked the path of a meat shield. The initial state was high defense, low agility, and increased agility. Even if it was increased by a hundred times, it would still not be of much use. Putting the soul heavy armor on the Titan Bear, it immediately felt a strange power surge into its body. As it stood up, the power within made it want to hit its belly like an orangutan to vent the energy surging out of its body. Not long after, the originally furry skin of the Titan Bear had turned into a silver armor. [Scientific name: Heavy Armored Bear] [Bloodline: Titan] [Rarity: Platinum low-grade] [Attributes: Earth] [Positioning: Attack/defense] [Skills: Steel armor, Mount Tai pressure (modified), self-healing sleep] [Personality: Gluttonous, lethargic] [Preferences: Honey] D*mn it, after taking a look at the attributes of the Titan Bear, its skills were almost completely redone. Not only did its defense seem to have received a huge increase, its lethality also seemed to be pretty good. Looking at the time on the map, there were still six hours left. After taking on a few more d-rank missions, the Armored Bear was summoned. Seeing the word ¡®honey¡¯ written on the mission pane, it just sat there and did not leave. It seemed that if it did not help him get some honey, it would not be willing to leave. After taking on the mission, Fang Yuan suddenly remembered something. He took out the Red Soul Stone and asked, ¡°Old Man Tu, what is this?¡± Old Man Tu widened his eyes and snatched the Red Soul Stone. He then said to fang yuan, ¡°A fifth-grade soul stone.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t know you were so fashionable in your speech,¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. ¡°Do you think we don¡¯t have to do anything in the secret realm every day?¡± Old Man Tu blew his beard high and said angrily, ¡°Young man, don¡¯t be too rude. I won¡¯t tell you what this stone is used for.¡± ¡°Ah, Old Man Tu, please.¡± Hearing Old Man Tu¡¯s anger, Fang Yuan could not help but change his tone of submission. This kind of soul stone was obviously different from ordinary materials. If one did not know its use, it would be a waste of God¡¯s gift. Old Man Tu was originally just pretending. Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s attitude, he explained, ¡°Soul stones are used to resonate with the souls of pet beasts. It is extremely rare. Most low-level trainers have never seen this thing in their lives.¡± ¡°Yes, yes.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. As a platinum-level trainer, he had never seen this thing before. He was very curious. ¡°Each pet beast can consume five soul stones, but only one type of soul stone can be consumed. ¡°Soul stones have two functions. One is to directly increase a pet beast¡¯s ability after consumption. For example, a Red Soul Stone can increase the pet beast¡¯s heat resistance, and it can also increase the pet beast¡¯s maximum HP, which makes it tougher.¡± ¡°But¡­¡± Old Man Tu then said in a more serious tone. ¡°The soul stone is more important to resonate with the pet. When a pet consumes five types of soul stones, in addition to increasing its attributes, it will also awaken a special ability.¡± ¡°Awaken? Special ability?¡± Fang Yuan felt as if he was listening to a heavenly book. ¡°That is to say, for example, my armored bear has five skills. After consuming five soul stones, it can have six skills?¡± ¡°Yes, that is called the soul awakening skill. It will increase as the pet¡¯s level increases,¡± Old Man Tu explained. ¡°The higher the level of the soul stone, the higher the probability of awakening a powerful skill is.¡± Fang Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air. He originally thought that pets were invincible when their level and quality were high. Now, it seemed that pets actually had many hidden attributes which he had not discovered. No wonder his father was so obsessed with the pet¡¯s archaeological research. It was said that ancient pets had skills that modern pets could not compare to. It was probably because of this. After knowing the function of the soul stone, he did not waste any more time in the cabin. Fang Yuan took the armored bear to the foot of the mountain to steal the honey. It was more like stealing than stealing. Because the Armored Bear¡¯s skin was thick and tough, low-grade gold bees could not pierce through its skin. Instead, they could only let it lick the honey. ¡°Such a lazy bear! That¡¯s enough! Quickly bring me the honey!¡± Fang Yuan saw that the armored bear had already eaten the honey from four nests, and he could not help but roar. The Armored Bear was holding a beehive in its hand, ready to pour the honey into its mouth. Seeing Fang Yuan order it, it could not help but look aggrieved, as if to say, ¡°Can you just drink this bowl again?¡± ¡°No! You¡¯ll get diabetes if you drink too much honey. ¡°Fang Yuan did not dare to go near the beehive. He did not have the armor of the armored bear. The Armored Bear finally made up its mind and passed the honey to Fang Yuan. Just like that, the man and the bear swept through all the beehives at the foot of the mountain. During that time, they even dropped a level 1 red soul stone. ¡°Does the earth realm only drop Red Soul Stones?¡± Fang Yuan looked at this soul stone in confusion. With the system¡¯s support, it had already reached level 3. Perhaps it was similar to the Earth realm where only earth-type pet beasts could be used. Otherwise, facing so many bees, he would have used the [First Aid Queen Bee] that his mother had given him. However, one could not be too greedy. There were still more than 30,000 points left in the Earth realm. The items in the shop were all equipment and evolution materials for earth-type pet beasts, so they could not be used now. Fang Yuan decided to keep them for now. He would have the chance to come back in the future. Just as Fang Yuan was about to leave the Mystic Realm of Earth, Old Man Tu said, ¡°On account that you are the first person to complete an s-rank Quest, I¡¯ll tell you something.¡± Fang Yuan turned around. There was only one minute left on his map. ¡°If your Armored Bear wants to level up again, you¡¯ll have to go to the level 4 land of Earth. When your bear reaches diamond level¡­¡± At this point, everything in front of him started to blur. In the next second, Fang Yuan stood in front of the obelisk, and the time on the map showed 0. ¡°What happened to the diamond?¡± Fang Yuan was very puzzled, as if he had missed out on a very important piece of information. However, he then returned to the training hall in front of the obelisk. The receptionist from earlier was looking at Fang Yuan with a smile. ¡°Little brother, did you get nothing? The level three Earth Mystic Realm is still too difficult for you.¡± ¡°Yes, it is a little difficult.¡± Fang Yuan did not intend to explain to her. The fewer people who knew how powerful he was, the better it would be. ¡°How many points did you earn?¡± The receptionist was still not giving up. She wanted to see Fang Yuan¡¯s desperate expression. ¡°50? 100? It¡¯s still far from the certifications.¡± At this point, Fang Yuan remembered that he had put the Earth Mystic Realm certifications in the map. He quickly checked to see if he had lost it. The Earth Mystic Realm certifications were thin pieces of paper, but when Fang Yuan touched them, a voice asked him, ¡°Do you want to bind the certifications now?¡± Fang Yuan chose ¡®Yes¡¯. Then, a pendant appeared out of thin air around his neck. There were six squares, and the squares were all empty except for a brown gemstone. Chapter 73 - Turning Enemies into Friends Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio It was also the first time the receptionist had seen the true certification of the Earth Arcane Realm. Her mouth was wide open. ¡°Fang Yuan, is it? Who are you exactly?¡± The receptionist asked. She seldom watched television. However, the person in front of the receptionist recognized Fang Yuan. ¡°He¡¯s the Gryphon Legion Commander Fang Yuan! He alone is a legion!¡± ¡°Fang Yuan, are you here to capture pet beasts in the Earth Arcane Realm? But this level two realm only has silver-level pet beasts.¡± A spectator asked. Fang Yuan had no time to care about them. The moment the Earth Arcane Realm certification turned into a pendant, a pile of information was carved into his mind like a computer program. All the information about the earth-type pet beasts below gold pinnacle grade seemed to be imprinted in his mind. ¡°Is this the certification of the Earth Arcane Realm?¡± Fang Yuan picked up the pendant in disbelief. No wonder it required six arcane realm certifications to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It was because the students of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion were all blessed by the heaven. With the certification, they would not act recklessly when they did not understand the attributes of the other party¡¯s pet beast. The trip to the Earth Arcane Realm this time was quite fruitful. Not only did he evolve the Titan bear into platinum, but he also obtained a magical soul stone. ¡°Xiao Jin!¡± Fang Yuan summoned the gryphon and leaped onto its back. Then, he saw the gryphon flapping its wings and flying toward the direction of the academy. ¡°It¡¯s too cool, right?¡± The receptionist couldn¡¯t help but sigh when she saw this scene. It was her first time seeing the certification of the Earth Arcane Realm, but it didn¡¯t mean that she didn¡¯t know about the certification. She noticed that the pendant on Fang Yuan¡¯s neck was a three-star pendant, and the arcane realm behind their guild hall was clearly a two-star Earth Arcane Realm. She couldn¡¯t figure out the mystery behind this, but she knew that Fang Yuan was definitely a powerful and terrifying character, just like the gryphon that was flapping its wings and flying away. ¡°Oh, I also want to ride a gryphon.¡± A man wearing a plaid shirt said. ¡°You? You¡¯d better go and find an earth-type pet beast. If you¡¯re lucky, you can catch a rock turtle. It¡¯s not bad to ride, at least it¡¯ll be faster than you,¡± the girl who was with him ridiculed. ¡°Humph, I¡¯ll soon surpass him. Do you believe it?¡± The man looked at Fang Yuan¡¯s back and said indignantly. ¡°Cheh¡­¡± This time, it was not only the girl beside him, but even the people in the line also hissed. Fang Yuan was riding the gryphon. This pet was really mobile, and it was perfect for short-distance trips. The only thing he had to worry about was not to collide with an air plane. It was noon time when he landed on the school playground. The students were all having their meals. There was no one on the playground. Fang Yuan quickly put away the gryphon and went back to the principal¡¯s office. It had only been two hours since he left and now he had good news to tell the principal. ¡°Principal, I¡¯m back.¡± Fang Yuan pushed open the door of the principal¡¯s office and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to knock on the door. However, the principal did not mind Fang Yuan¡¯s impoliteness. That was because he was still looking at the three men in front of him. They were the directors of the admission offices of the three academies. In the end, the director of the admission office of the Iron Castle Military Academy won the championship of the chaotic battle. The other two revealed extremely unwilling expressions. However, in this world, the strong were respected. The teachers of the Iron Castle Military Academy won. Other than feeling frustrated, there was nothing else that they could do. The man in military uniform said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Fang Yuan, have you thought about it? I¡¯ve shown you the strength of our Iron Castle Military Academy. You see, only formal¡­¡± At this point, he suddenly saw the pendant on Fang Yuan¡¯s neck. He walked to Fang Yuan and picked up the pendant. ¡°You have obtained the certification of level three Earth Arcane Realm?¡± He asked in an incredulous tone. ¡°What?¡± The other two teachers also came over upon hearing this. Fang Yuan knew that they had no ill intentions, so he did not stop them. Seeing the certification of the Earth Arcane Realm, the three teachers looked at each other and then the principal. The principal understood and nodded his head. ¡°That¡¯s right. Fang Yuan wants to go to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± The director of the admission office of the Yan Prefecture University of Science and Technology in Shanghai said, ¡°Since you¡¯ve decided to go to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, we will naturally support you. Our school can lend you the Fire Arcane Realm!¡± The director of the admission office of the Arcane Realm Noble University said, ¡°Wow, even lending is so stingy. Fang Yuan, come to the city of our school to challenge the wind and water arcane realm. If you succeed, I¡¯ll give you a pet mix!¡± Iron Castle Military Academy¡¯s admission director said, ¡°As an old friend of ours, Fang Yuan, come to our city. Our city has two arcane realms, water and thunder. Just tell them the name of our school and it¡¯s arranged by the admissions office!¡± ¡°Thank you, thank you.¡± Hearing that the three teachers from the admissions office were so generous to help him, Fang Yuan was a little embarrassed. After all, he had just rejected the three teachers, which meant they did not complete their missions. But even under such circumstances, they were still willing to help him because the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was an honor to Yan Prefecture. They hoped that their own school would be strong, and it was even better that the Yan Prefecture would be strong enough to become one of the best pet beast kingdoms in the entire world. The principal was dumbfounded when he saw this. What kind of magical powers did Fang Yuan have to be able to get these famous schools to lend him their helping hands, and give him unconditional assistance to get him into the Heavenly Secret Pavilion? ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I last exercised. As expected, the wind-type pet beasts of your noble schools are nothing compared to what I¡¯ve heard. It¡¯s my honor to fight with them today.¡± ¡°No, no, it¡¯s the water-type pet beasts of the Iron Castle Military Academy that are truly powerful!¡± The three teachers who were fighting for Fang Yuan just now started to tease each other as if they were good friends. ¡°Did the admission teacher of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion come to our school?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Hahahaha.¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s question, the four of them laughed out loud, ¡°The Heavenly Secret Pavilion never needs to go to the school to recruit students. They are only concerned about strength. When you have gathered the six arcane realm certifications, the principal will tell you where to find them. You can settle down and complete the certification now!¡± The Heavenly Secret Pavilion sounded like a very mysterious academy, and it was full of genius. Most probably even if he was so famous, it wouldn¡¯t give him any advantage when he was there It was still necessary to upgrade all of his pet beasts first. Moreover, there were many pet beasts in this world that he had never heard of, not to mention soul stones and soul skills. There were still many unsolved mysteries waiting for him. After leaving the principal¡¯s office, his stomach growled. Thinking about it, it made sense. He had actually stayed in fantasy for 24 hours, which was equivalent to not having eaten for an entire day. After lunch, he had to go to Zhao Ren¡¯s place. After all, he had countless ingredients for the evolution potion. He could not waste them. Chapter 74 - Deciding the Next Stop Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Where did you get so much gold high grade spiritual herbs?¡± Zhao Ren looked at Fang Yuan who had conjured more than 200 spiritual herbs as if by magic. He sighed in his heart. This person was really amazing, just like how he had nurtured more than 100 gryphons on television. It was already good enough for an ordinary trainer to have one pet beast. For a trainer who had more than 100 pet beasts like him, he himself was an army in true sense. How could an ordinary trainer be his match? Zhao Ren had seen the world before. He knew very well that once a pet beast surpassed an opponent in terms of quality and level, no matter how many opponents there were, they would only give him experience points. Not only did Fang Yuan have a large number of pet beasts, what was more terrifying was that these pet beasts were of very high quality. The lowest quality of these pet beasts were all gold low grade. If they were taken out, no one would be able to defeat them in the virtual arena. He thought of the legendary figure in the virtual arena. He looked a little similar to Fang Yuan. ¡°I need two days to concoct the evolution potion. Taking the losses into consideration, there should be around 150 portions. Do you think it¡¯s okay?¡± Zhao Ren said matter-of-factly. Even if it was his research results, he was not 100% sure. ¡°Okay,¡± Fang Yuan replied. He was not worried that Zhao Ren would cheat him of his materials. After all, there were other materials besides the spiritual herbs that he needed Zhao Ren to provide. ¡°Dr. Zhao,¡± Thinking up to this point, Fang Yuan came up with an idea of his own, ¡°I have a piece of spirit field that belongs to me, and you possess the technology for the evolution elixir. Do you think that we can work together to open an evolution elixir company? We can directly raise the level of Yan Prefecture¡¯s ordinary trainers to a whole new level¡­¡± After hearing this suggestion, Zhao Ren¡¯s eyes lit up. He immediately agreed. Half of his previous research was to pursue the true meaning of science, and the other half was to live a better life. Although publishing a paper was already enough for him to retire, but a person had to have a higher ambition, right? ¡°Where is your spirit field?¡± Zhao Ren asked. ¡°Near the Iron Castle Military Academy. Using gryphons to transport back and forth would only take one day. One batch can be produced in three months, about 200 stalks.¡± Fang Yuan explained, he hid the fact about the system because the spiritual field itself could only produce gold low grade spiritual herbs. Only the spiritual herbs that passed through his hands were truly valuable spiritual herbs. Therefore, he was not afraid that Zhao Ren would take possession of the company without permission. ¡°Okay,¡± Zhao Ren said, ¡°But I heard that you¡¯re going to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Let me give you something.¡± Zhao Ren took out a bottle of red medicine and handed it to Fang Yuan. ¡°I found out that you are specialized in selling potions.¡± Fang Yuan took the potion and asked, ¡°What is this thing for?¡± ¡°Experience potion.¡± Zhao Ren answered, ¡°I only have one bottle of this thing. Keep it for yourself. No matter what level the pet is now, even if it is level 25, it can level up immediately after drinking the potion.¡± ¡°There¡¯s such a good thing?¡± Fang Yuan widened his eyes. Pet beast level upgrade required a lot of battles. This thing could skip battles directly to gain experience. Moreover, the higher the level, the better the effect. ¡°Where did you get it from?¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion? This was given to me by a friend who graduated from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. He is a trainer, not a researcher. I don¡¯t know where he got it from. But through the pharmacology analysis, I think what he said should be true. I¡¯m giving it to you now. You must treasure it.¡± After saying that, Zhao Ren summoned his pet beast, a monkey that looked like him and wore glasses. It helped him carry the spiritual herbs. He was probably in a hurry to go back and make the evolution potion. The Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It seemed that the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was really a place full of magic and challenges. Fang Yuan thought to himself, since there were still two days before he could get the evolution potion, he might as well challenge an arcane realm first. Looking at the pet beasts in his hand, the strongest one was undoubtedly Xiao Jin, the wind type pet beast. If he wanted to challenge the secret realm of wind, the closest was in Shanghai, which distance was double of the distance of the Iron Castle Military Academy. One round trip would take four days, so the time was not suitable. Iron Castle Military Academy had two arcane realms, the water and the thunder. Thinking about it carefully, he did not seem to have a good water-type pet. Should he go to a level two arcane realm to catch one before challenging a level three arcane realm? At this moment, he felt the summon of his pet. Although the trainer usually summoned the pet, the trainer could also feel the will of the pet. When the pet had extreme desire, it would also summon the spirit of its owner. ¡°Ah Li, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Fang Yuan summoned the wind and thunder fox when he felt the whimpering of the wind and thunder fox. Now, she was already a beautiful white fox. Ah Li was whispering to Fang Yuan, rubbing and scratching. This kind of strange action was incomprehensible to ordinary people. However, Fang Yuan was obviously not an ordinary person. He asked, ¡°Ah Li, are you asking me to challenge the Thunder Arcane Realm first?¡± Ah Li quieted down and let out a low cry. Then, it rubbed its head against Fang Yuan¡¯s palm. ¡°But, you¡¯re only a gold low-grade pet beast. Isn¡¯t it a little too much to challenge a level three Thunder Arcane Realm?¡± Fang Yuan asked. After all, challenging the arcane realm was a matter that required caution. If the challenge was unsuccessful, the next challenge would be in the following month. By then, the college entrance examination would have already ended. He did not know if there was a way to make up for it. Ah Li patted its chest as if it already had a plan in mind. ¡°Sigh, I really can¡¯t stand you. Little Fox, you¡¯re really similar to your original owner.¡± Fang Yuan patted Ah Li¡¯s head and replied, ¡°Since you¡¯re so confident, I¡¯ll trust you this time.¡± Fang Yuan also did not know why he would take such a risk. He had made a decision that might affect his life because his pet¡¯s act of acting coquettishly. In fact, Fang Yuan was not worried that he would not be able to get the certification. If it was the same as the Earth Secret Realm, he could actually challenge a D-rank mission. With the help of the 100 times amplification system, even if it was a D-rank mission, he would be able to gather enough points to exchange for the certification, it was just that he might not be able to gather enough materials to upgrade the wind spirit fox. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan immediately thought of the item he had obtained in the Earth Secret Realm ¡ª A level five red soul stone. Ah Li¡¯s speed and explosive power were actually very strong, but its survivability was a bit lacking. The creator had even given her a seductive skill for such a pet beast¡­ It was really hard to understand. But what if¡­ The pet beast itself had a flaw and needed materials and equipment to make up for it to be a perfect pet beast? Ah Li was very happy when he brought the red soul stone to in front of it. Female creatures seemed to like things that could emit light. When Ah Li was holding the red soul stone, suddenly, it emitted a ray of light and disappeared. Ah Li showed a blank expression. However, Fang Yuan could see the value of her attribute increase, which was slightly exaggerated. Chapter 75 - Pet Beast in Guild Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio At Iron Castle Military Academy. Fang Yuan had been here once before and had lived in a farm near the spirit field for a period of time. Although he did not remember the way very clearly, the gryphons were good at recognizing the way. From the mouth of Dongli Kele, the dean of the admission office of Iron Castle Military Academy, he learned that the Thunder Arcane Realm was in the southwest direction of Iron Castle military base, which was the west point of Fang Yuan¡¯s spirit field. After returning to the spirit field, Fang Yuan harvested all the spirit herbs the day before yesterday. Now, there were already some seedlings growing in the field. Spirit herbs were really magical. They didn¡¯t need seeds to grow continuously. However, because they didn¡¯t need seeds, spirit herbs couldn¡¯t be found in other places except for the spirit field, so there was no way to cultivate them. Each arcane realm would have its corresponding guild hall to guard and manage. Most of the arcane realms were open to all pet trainers, and only a few arcane realms could be entered by people with special identities. For example, this arcane realm of the Iron Castle Military Academy, in order not to attract attention, Fang Yuan landed very far away from the Thunder of Iron Castle Guild Hall and took Xiao Jin back into the pet world. It was all Xiao Jin¡¯s fault for being too exaggerated. Fang Yuan himself was not outstanding, but when he was with the gryphon, even a fool could recognize him. Walking into the Thunder of Iron Castle Guild Hall, the layout of this place was different from the original Wood of Chuxin Guild Hall in Chuxin City. If the original Wood of Chuxin was like a Taoist hall, this place was like a tavern. The guard here was an uncle with a full beard. ¡°Uncle, I want to enter the Thunder Arcane Realm!¡± A young man shouted to the uncle, ¡°Give me the scroll.¡± The uncle wiped the cup in his hand slowly and said, ¡°Young man, if you want to drink, I welcome you. But if you want to go to the arcane realm, you have to show me the student ID of the Iron Castle Military Academy.¡± ¡°This arcane realm doesn¡¯t belong to the Iron Castle Military Academy! The arcane realm belongs to all humans!¡± The young man said angrily. Hearing this, the uncle stopped what he was doing and said, ¡°Hey, look at your stinky behavior! Are you acting?¡± ¡°If you want to go to the arcane realm to search for treasures, that¡¯s fine, too. Fight with me and If you win, you can go in.¡± The uncle yawned out of boredom. ¡°Are you serious?¡± The young man seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw. ¡°Then don¡¯t blame me for being impolite!¡± He summoned his pet beast ¡ª an electric mouse that was flashing with golden light. ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so cute.¡± Looking at the fat golden mouse, many girls exclaimed in surprise. Fang Yuan felt that the pet beast in front of him was a little familiar, but¡­ In his impression, it was not this kind of pet beast that was powerful, but such pet beast that was known as the skin god was powerful. The old man only glanced from sideway and said, ¡°A gold mid grade lightning mouse, commonly known as the electric rat, dares to challenge our level three Thunder Arcane Realm with this standard? Go home and drink milk.¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± The young man was angered by the uncle, ¡°Quickly show your pet beast, or I will attack you! If not hand over the map.¡± ¡°Sigh¡­¡± The uncle seemed to be very reluctant, and signaled the young man to look at his head. At some point, a giant bird with blue lightning all over its body appeared on the ceiling. ¡°Du Du, don¡¯t destroy the place.¡± The uncle ordered. The bird with lightning on its body received the order to attack at the same time, and rushed toward the electric mouse. ¡°Ji ji ji ji!¡± When the electric mouse saw the bird, it was so scared that it didn¡¯t dare to defend itself anymore. It directly hid behind its master. ¡°Ah, a mouse is afraid of an eagle. This is an instinct that is engraved in its genes,¡± an enthusiastic audience member explained the competition casually. ¡°The Lightning Pick Mouse is a gold low-grade thunder type mouse pet beast. Its opponent is the Thunder Sparrow, which is also a thunder type but is a gold high grade pet beast. It has no chance of winning at all.¡± The Thunder Sparrow¡¯s claws did not manage to catch the electric mouse, but the electric mouse actually hid behind its master, making it very angry. Its wings began to gather lightning. ¡°It¡¯s coming! Under extreme anger, the Thunder Sparrow would wrap itself up and form a bolt of lightning to attack its opponent! According to speculation, the attack might be as high as 500,000 volts. An ordinary pet beast would not be able to withstand such an attack!¡± The enthusiastic audience continued to explain. ¡°I surrender, I surrender!¡± The young man saw that the Thunder Sparrow¡¯s body was expanding, and he became even more afraid. His disappointing pet beast was actually hiding behind him! He quickly sent out a signal to surrender. When the guild hall uncle heard this, he put the Thunder Sparrow back. The young man seemed to have suffered a great humiliation. He threw the electric mouse on the ground and left. When he left, he spat at it. The electric mouse¡¯s face was full of tears. Losing its master meant that it would die soon. It cried in the center of the hall. It was so cruel. In a battle between pets, victory and defeat were common, not to mention that the electric mouse lost to its natural enemy. Just because of such a thing, the trainer decided to cancel the contract? Everyone looked at each other. Although they felt sorry for the electric mouse, they already had their own pet. Raising a pet that they picked up was very risky and costly. Fang Yuan walked forward and stroked the electric mouse. As he used to be a gaming fan, he had a good impression of this pet. He squatted down and picked up the electric mouse. [ Ding. Lightning picky mouse detected. Grade: Low-grade gold, level: level 5 ] [ Do you wish to receive a 100-fold increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up on the 100-fold increase, and obtain low-grade gold level 5 lightning picky mouse. ] [ Second, 100-fold increase in quality, and obtain high-grade gold level 5 lightning picky mouse. ] [ Third, 100-fold increase in grade, and obtain low-grade gold lightning level 15 picky mouse. ] Fang Yuan did not even have to think about it. He directly chose two, a 100-fold increase in quality. Not long after, the lightning gold pick-up was held in Fang Yuan¡¯s arms, forming a contract! [ Scientific name: Lightning Gold Pick-Up. ] [ Bloodline: Elf. ] [ Grade: High-grade gold. ] [ Attributes: Rat, Thunder, Elf. ] [ Position: Attack/Special. ] [ Skills: 1. Lightning strike, 2. Burrow into the ground, 3. Escape. ] [ Personality: Timid. ] [ Hobby: Nuts. ] [ Skill description: ¡­ ] [ Reproductive Ability: Strong. ] In the eyes of others, everything seemed to be fine. It was just a caring youth who had saved an abandoned pet beast. However, in the eyes of the uncle in the guild hall, he vaguely noticed that this electric rat was slightly different from before. There was no difference in the appearance of an evolution that did not cross ranks. Only a trainer with rich combat experience could feel the change in combat strength. The electric rat originally thought that he would not live past today. He did not expect to find a new master so quickly. He happily rubbed against his master¡¯s arms. Chapter 76 - Pick Was Up Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°I want to challenge your Thunder Arcane Realm.¡± After the battle just now, many people in the queue consciously dispersed. Fang Yuan, who was carrying the golden Pick, came directly to the front of the queue. ¡°Oh, you want to challenge me with a defeated opponent that you just picked up?¡± Although the uncle felt that the young man in front of him had some strength, as the person who had guarded this arcane realm for ten years, he did not think that Fang Yuan was the chosen one. Other than the students of the Iron Castle Military Academy, there were also those who were determined to apply for the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°I was introduced by Dongli Kelle, the director of the admissions office of the Iron Castle Military Academy,¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°There are 100 people who claim to be recommended by the teacher every day,¡± the uncle said with a mocking tone. ¡°How do I believe you?¡± Fang Yuan suddenly felt that the uncle in front of him was actually not annoying. He was just pretending to be disgusting to others. His real purpose was to select the real strong ones. He placed the golden pick mouse on the table. The uncle was confused by his actions. ¡°Let¡¯s do it again. I want to use this pick mouse to fight with your lightning bird,¡± Fang Yuan said confidently. ¡°What!¡± The cup in the uncle¡¯s hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. ¡°Even if you¡¯re joking, there must be a limit.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not joking.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s serious expression and the confidence in his eyes made the uncle suddenly laugh. The uncle summoned the thunder sparrow and said, ¡°Just now before Du Du could attack, it was already hiding behind its master. A weak pet is not worth nurturing, don¡¯t you know that?¡± Golden pick mouse saw the thunder sparrow staring at it as if it was looking at food. It wanted to hide again behind Fang Yuan, but it was pressed at the front by Fang Yuan. ¡°I¡¯ll call you Pick from now on. You¡¯ve been strengthened, so you can defeat it.¡± Although Fang Yuan was saying the comforting words, Pick saw that Fang Yuan¡¯s expression was filled with malevolence. That feeling was even more terrifying than seeing the thunder sparrow. Seeing Pick still hesitating, Fang Yuan whispered into its ear, ¡°I have a steel gryphon in my hand. It loves to eat mouse. You¡¯d better win the competition, or you¡¯ll become its food tomorrow.¡± Pick¡¯s eyes were full of tears. It thought it had met a kind master, but it turned out to be even worse than the previous master. Fang Yuan gently stroked its head and said, ¡°Believe me, you can win. You are now a hundred times stronger than before!¡± Pick wiped its tears. When Fang Yuan hugged it just now, it indeed felt the increase in strength. ¡°Are you done negotiating with the little guy? Can we start the competition now?¡± The uncle had unknowingly walked to the front of the bar counter. ¡°Come on!¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Let¡¯s fight!¡± The uncle pressed a button, and all the tables in the center of the huge hall descended. Then, a competition stage raised up. Pick and Lightning Sparrow appeared on both sides of the stage. The enthusiastic audience appeared again. He began to introduce passionately, ¡°The lightning pick mouse has once again issued a challenge to the thunder sparrow. This time, it stands openly on the stage. If it hides behind its master again, it will be directly judged as a loser.¡± Just as the stage appeared, Fang Yuan also received the detailed information of the lightning sparrow. [ Scientific name: Lightning Sparrow. ] [ Bloodline: Yi Xi. ] [ Rarity: Gold-high-grade. ] [ Attributes: Bird, lightning, divine beast descendant (fake) ] [ Positioning: Attack/defense. ] [ Skills: 1. Lightning turbulence, 2. Sprint, 3. Elementary Lightning repelling. ] The more Fang Yuan thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed. This bird did not look extraordinary, but it was actually a descendant of a divine beast. Fortunately, it was only of a gold-high-grade. Its basic lightning strike seemed to be the nemesis of thunder-type pet beasts. I felt like I had placed a dangerous bet, Fang Yuan thought to himself. The sparrow saw the mouse in front of it and could not help but drool. Pick was shivering. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, Pick! Use the burrow skill!¡± Just as the swallow turned into lightning and was ready to sprint, Fang Yuan instructed Pick to use the burrow skill to dodge the swallow¡¯s attack. Then, he appeared behind the swallow and used his nose to gather lightning to attack the swallow. ¡°He hit it!¡± The enthusiastic audience explained, ¡°But the Lightning Sparrow itself has the elementary lightning repelling ability, which means that the lightning sparrow has a certain probability of not being damaged by lightning-type skills! This attack clearly missed. Not only did it not cause any damage, it actually angered the opponent. The Lightning Sparrow launched an even more violent attack. But, Pick once again hid underground¡­¡± Fang Yuan looked at the scene in front of him. He suddenly thought of a solution. ¡°Pick, do you trust me?¡± He communicated with Pick through his consciousness. Pick shook his head desperately, but he saw Fang Yuan draw Xiao Jin¡¯s appearance in his consciousness, which was even more terrifying than the lightning sparrow. Although his eyes were full of tears, he kept nodding. ¡°Just do as I say. You can do it.¡± After setting everything up, Fang Yuan placed his hands in front of his chest and watched the battle in front of him with confidence. Ever since the uncle was assigned here, there had been people challenging him every day, but he had not lost for a long time. ¡°Young man, my Du Du is the descendant of a divine beast. If your mouse provokes it again, I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to protect it. Why don¡¯t you surrender?¡± The uncle said. This was the truth, and the lightning sparrow on the field became more and more irritable, it even seemed to ignore the danger of the audience. Fang Yuan said coldly, ¡°As long as Pick doesn¡¯t lose, you don¡¯t have to protect it, do you?¡± Hearing this, the audience became emotional, and many girls even began to cheer for Pick. Pick was constantly fighting with the lightning sparrow on the field. The lightning sparrow was getting more and more hot-tempered, and its speed was also getting faster and faster. When Pick wasn¡¯t paying attention, it took Pick in its mouth. ¡°The winner has been decided.¡± The uncle revealed a bitter smile. ¡°I thought this young man could play with me for a while, but it turns out it¡¯s just¡­¡± Before he could finish, Pick, which was in the lightning sparrow¡¯s mouth, was accumulating all the electricity in his body and shooting it into the sparrow¡¯s body! ¡°If the external attacks are ineffective, is the body completely insulated?¡± Fang Yuan asked the uncle. Just as the yellow lightning and blue lightning crossed each other, the thunder sparrow landed on the stage. Pick lay on the ground, while the thunder sparrow raised its head and let out a long cry, as if announcing its victory. However, in the next second, the thunder sparrow fell to the ground. Pick mouse, on the other hand, staggered to its feet. ¡°Oh my God! Go, go, go!¡± The enthusiastic audience¡¯s commentary disappeared for a while, but at the end of the game, it sounded again, ¡°The pick mouse was defeated by the lightning sparrow in terms of both attributes and race. Under such circumstances, he actually completed the counter-attack! This young man is really incredible!¡± ¡°Good job, Pick!¡± Fang Yuan gave a thumbs-up to the fat rat on the stage. Pick also stood up, gave Fang Yuan a ¡°yeah¡± sign. But at this moment, the lightning sparrow also stood up. Its whole body was covered in black shadows, and it stared at Pick with murderous intent. Chapter 77 - Thunderbird’s Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Stop it, Du Du!¡± The uncle wanted to summon the thunder bird back, but he realized that it didn¡¯t bother with him at all. It was over. Perhaps it was because it had lost to a creature at the bottom chain, the thunder sparrow was in a state of absolute anger. It wanted nothing more than to immediately bite the little mouse in front of it into a hundred pieces and swallow it into its stomach. With a long cry, the thunder sparrow launched an attack on Pick. Pick sensed the danger and turned around. The sparrow¡¯s beak had already arrived in front of it. ¡°Ji Ji Ji Ji!¡± Pick felt that it was time to die. At this moment, the aura of a king descended. The sparrow was directly blown away to the other side. ¡°The competition is over. You can¡¯t beat an opponent weaker than you and why are you still venting your anger instead of going home to reflect?¡± Fang Yuan said to the thunder sparrow coldly. The thunder sparrow was still not convinced. When it was about to attack again, it saw a pet beast that was twice as tall as it! The steel gryphon was the king of birds and beasts. Even if it was a descendant of a divine beast, it had to lie down in front of it. The thunder sparrow suddenly lost its hostility. Instead, it turned around and flew to the uncle¡¯s side. The gryphon was staring at it from the side and did not attack. ¡°My God, isn¡¯t this the leader of the Gryphon Legion, Fang Yuan, who defeated the army ants?¡± Finally, Fang Yuan¡¯s identity could not be hidden anymore. ¡­ After a mess, the uncle pressed a button, and the venue returned to its original appearance of a tavern. The uncle took out two glasses and asked, ¡°Fang Yuan, what drink do you want?¡± ¡°Can I drink wine?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°No, you¡¯re still underage. You can only drink fruit juice.¡± After saying that, the uncle took out a glass of grape juice and gave it to Fang Yuan. This was the favorite drink of the students of the Iron Castle Military Academy. Fang Yuan took a sip, it tasted really good. ¡°I want to apologize to you for what happened today. I¡¯m really sorry.¡± The uncle suddenly bowed his head, Fang Yuan did not know what to do. ¡°Du du is used to winning. He does not understand that there are always people better than him, no, beasts better than him. It is a good thing to let him lose this time. This glass of grape juice will be my apology gift.¡± Fang Yuan did not want the grape juice. What he wanted was¡­ ¡°Here you are. This is the map of the level-three Thunder Arcane Realm. I met Du Du in the realm ten years ago and brought it back. It has been a long time since I went there,¡± the uncle said. [ Ding. Arcane realm map detected. Map Level: Level-three.

Obtain a level-four map and enter a level-three Thunder Arcane Realm. ] [ Third, increase the time by 100 times. Obtain a level-three map. Thunder Arcane Realm lasts for 240 hours. ] After receiving the map, Fang Yuan thought for a long time. When he obtained a level-three map, he would face a platinum-level pet beast. Now, he had two thunder-type pet beasts. One was a gold-low-grade Ah Li, and the other was a gold-high-grade Pick. Challenging a level-four map was definitely a suicidal act. Moreover, the Earth Arcane Realm in his hands also proved to be a level-three map. Not long after, Fang Yuan chose the third option, which was to increase the time by a 100 times. As long as he was given enough time to farm points, he could still upgrade the wind-thunder fox and the gold-grade Pick to platinum-grade! ¡°Uncle, thank you for the grape juice. I¡¯m going to challenge the arcane realm now.¡± After drinking the grape juice in one go, Fang Yuan could not wait any longer. ¡°Wait, Fang Yuan, I have something else for you.¡± Seeing that Fang Yuan was about to leave, the uncle felt that the straightforwardness of the young man in front of him was very similar to his personality in the past. Perhaps he could go further than him. The uncle took out a yellow feather. ¡°This is the feather on Du Du¡¯s body. It¡¯s for your pet. It has a certain ability to protect against lightning damage. It should be very useful in the Thunder Arcane Realm.¡± The yellow feather seemed to still have a weak electric current. When Fang Yuan touched it, he felt a slight numbness. [ Ding. Pet equipment detected: Swallow¡¯s feather, level: gold high-grade. ] [ Do you want to proceed with the 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to proceed with the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, obtain gold high-grade: Swallow¡¯s feather * 1. ] [ Second, obtain platinum low-grade: Thunderbird¡¯s feather * 1. ] [ Third, obtain gold high-grade: Swallow¡¯s feather * 100. ] Fang Yuan was completely stumped. If he chose platinum low-grade thunderbird¡¯s feather, it sounded like it had a strong lightning protection ability. It would have a powerful buff effect on challenging the Thunder Arcane Realm this time. If he chose a hundred times the number, then he would practically have a gryphon legion that was not afraid of lightning attacks! The former would be beneficial for him to constantly pursue the limits of the challenge, while the latter would be beneficial for battle. In the end, he could only bear the pain and give up. He chose the thunderbird feather. He summoned Ah Li. Ah Li received the thunderbird feather with joy. After coming into contact with it, the thunderbird feather disappeared. Thunderbird feather was an accessory equipment. It could only be equipped with one piece of the same kind of equipment. The effect was to reduce the direct lightning damage by 20%! Fang Yuan said to her, ¡°Ah Li, see how much master pampers you. I¡¯ve given you the spirit stones, and the equipment, too. If you fail to live up to my hope, I¡¯ll¡­ I¡¯ll transfer all the resources to Pick!¡± Ah Li was still cheering just now. After hearing these words, she glared fiercely at Pick, who was much younger than her. Pick immediately shook his head in fear, indicating that he would not fight with Ah Li for anything. ¡°Okay, are these your two thunder-type pet beasts?¡± The uncle said and handed the registration form to Fang Yuan. ¡°You are really a special trainer that I rarely see. I rarely see pet beasts and humans so intimate to each other. You are practically like friends.¡± After signing, Fang Yuan returned the form to the uncle. ¡°Like friends? Aren¡¯t we friends?¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Just like you and Du Du, uncle. Isn¡¯t it because you spoilt it too much that it became so willful?¡± ¡°Hahahaha.¡± The uncle laughed in relief. ¡°Yes. It is my wish for humans and pets to get along harmoniously and naturally. I don¡¯t have the ability to realize it, but I see hope in you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be mushy.¡± Fang Yuan laughed and walked out of the hall. He walked towards the purple obelisk, which was the obelisk that represented the illusion of thunder. He walked to the bottom of the obelisk and held up the map. After feeling dizzy for a while, Fang Yuan entered the level-three Thunder Arcane Realm. The environment of the Thunder Arcane Realm was completely different from that of the Earth Arcane Realm. The Earth Arcane Realm was a mountain while the Thunder Arcane Realm was a plain. However, lightning kept striking from the sky. ¡°Young man, what are you here for? Are you here to obtain a pet, to upgrade a pet, or to obtain a certification?¡± Just as Fang Yuan was lamenting the wonderful scenery between heaven and earth, a young girl¡¯s voice came from his back. Chapter 78 - Hidden Mission Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio What a beautiful girl, Fang Yuan thought to himself. The feeling she gave off was completely different from what the old man shared about Earth Arcane Earth. The guardian of the arcane realm in front of him was a tall and beautiful woman with purple eyes and golden hair. She was not inferior to the models in the outside world at all. After that there was a special person to receive him. He was led into a room, and there were already five people inside. ¡°Young man, this is the Thunder Arcane Realm. If you don¡¯t have a thunder pet, it is very likely that you will be directly hit by lightning. If you don¡¯t have a thunder pet, please leave on your own accord. Otherwise, you will be responsible for your own life!¡± The guardian said calmly. After hearing this, Fang Yuan summoned Ah Li and Pick. ¡°Wow! So Cute.¡± The guardian¡¯s expression immediately changed after seeing Ah Li and Pick. She stroke Ah Li¡¯s head, and then picked up Pick and rubbed its face. ¡­ Fang Yuan was not in a hurry since he had 240 hours anyway. Perhaps she had have enough, the guardian said coldly to Fang Yuan, ¡°Young man, you can just call me Lei Lin. You¡¯ve already proven that you have the ability to challenge the arcane realm. Now, I¡¯ll bring you to our exchange shop.¡± Following Lei Lin, they came to a stone house. The structure was completely similar to the wooden house in the Earth Arcane Realm, except that the material was different. The booth was also filled with dense materials. Fang Yuan began to study them: The ¡°white rat fur¡±, ¡°brown rat fur¡±, and ¡°purple rat fur¡± were three items to evolve into the platinum grade. They corresponded to the speed of improvement, increased lightning damage, and upgraded yellow lightning to blue lightning, the three evolution directions. On Ah Li¡¯s side, there were even more directions for evolution. ¡°Eye of Charm¡±¨C to increase the charm of the wind and thunder fox and extended its charm time. ¡°Sharp Claw¡±¨C to increase the attack power of the wind and Thunder Fox¡¯s sharp claws. ¡°Power of Three Tails (thunder)¡±¨C to increase the life attribute of the wind and thunder fox and to evolve to three tails (thunder). Remark: The power of three tails requires the special evolution of wind, thunder, and grass. ¡°Why does this three tails need three materials to evolve?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°It¡¯s because if it¡¯s a three-tailed fox, it can change its attributes in battle and release different skills. It¡¯s an extremely flexible battle pet. As it¡¯s too powerful, it has to limit its evolution,¡± Lei Lin calmly introduced. Definitely he did not have to think much. He didn¡¯t expect Ah Li could be so powerful. Such a fox was almost abandoned by others. This person was really blind. Fang Yuan came to the mission panel. Fang Yuan stood under the mission panel and started reading. D rank mission: Eliminate the lightning chestnut ball *20 (silver-high)(infinite). Reward points: 5. C rank mission: Eliminate the brahma ape (gold-low). Reward points: 10. B rank mission: Eliminate the rain-orange-withering-lizard (gold-mid). Reward Points: 50. A rank mission: Eliminate the lone-wind-stone- rain elephant (gold-peak). Reward points: 100. S rank mission: Defeat the singing snake (platinum-low) . Reward points: 500. ¡°What does ¡®infinite¡¯ mean?¡± Fang Yuan asked. It means that after you accept the mission, you will receive a reward for every 20 lightning chestnut balls you kill. You don¡¯t have to come back every time to submit the mission. You just have to submit the mission before it ends.¡± As Lei Lin was explaining, she felt that the youth in front of her did not know anything. However, as the guardian of the arcane realm, her duty was to guide every challenger who entered the arcane realm. ¡°Okay. I will take this mission!¡± Hearing this, the two pet beasts expressed that they had no objections and appeared to be full of energy. ¡­ It had been eight days since they entered the Thunder Arcane Realm. Although they would feel tired in the realm, they did not feel hungry. It was also a magical thing. Fang Yuan no longer needed to command Ah Li and Pick. They would find the chestnut balls themselves and kill them at an extremely fast speed. It¡¯s about time, Fang Yuan thought. His mission book said that he had already killed 9,999 lightning chestnut balls. ¡°Ah Li, kill the last chestnut ball in your hand. We should go back now.¡± Fang Yuan yawned. He was tired of watching it. Just as Ah Li used his sharp claws to split the chestnut ball in half, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky. A stern voice was heard: ¡°Who is this?! Who killed so many of my chestnut ball brothers?!¡± They saw that the person who came was wearing a cloak and a bamboo hat. He looked like a chivalrous man. Fang Yuan could not help but raise his vigilance. However, when he took off his bamboo hat, Fang Yuan could not help but burst into laughter. This person¡¯s body was exactly the same as a human¡¯s, but his head was a chestnut ball. He looked especially¡­ awkward! ¡°How dare you! Are you the one who destroyed so many of my brothers? I want to avenge my brothers. I want to have a duel with you!¡± The chestnut ball man said. ¡°Oh? A duel, then come on!¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. No matter how strong the chestnut ball was, how strong could it be? ¡°Ah Li, get ready to attack.¡± A huge chestnut ball appeared out of thin air in front of them. What was even more exaggerating was that this chestnut ball wore a crown, giving off a domineering aura. It was just a little comical¡­ As it was a duel, the opponent¡¯s information quickly appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. [ Scientific name: Lightning crackle. ] [ Bloodline: Chestnut. ] [ Quality: Platinum-low-grade. ] [ Attributes: Thunder, plant, fire. ] [ Positioning: Attack/support. ] [ Skills: ??? ] Fang Yuan found it very interesting with the skills being displayed as question marks. The old man of Earth Arcane Realm had mentioned before that if a pet beast had evolved a skill, its skills would be different from other same pets, and it would be displayed as question marks or unknown. Therefore, the personalized pet beast ability had gradually become the focus of people¡¯s training. However, no matter how he looked at it, this person was not a real human. It could even be a pet beast that had evolved to a certain stage in the chestnut ball¡¯s evolution. He could actually become a trainer. ¡°Pi li pi li! Pi li pi li!¡± The big chestnut ball on the stage was emitting lightning all over its body. It looked very angry. This is a platinum grade chestnut ball, Fang Yuan had to be very focused. ¡°Ah Li, go! Sharp claws!¡± Ah Li had been fighting with chestnut balls recently, and its level had been raised from grade two to grade five. As it saw that the other party was another chestnut ball but in a bigger size, it did not care at all. ¡°It is you this demon fox, annihilated so many of our compatriots right?¡± The chestnut ball man¡¯s eyes shed tears, full of sad expression. ¡°Huh?¡± When Fang Yuan heard this, he felt very uncomfortable. In his opinion, everything in the arcane realm should just be an environment, so he did not feel guilty at all when he wiped them out. However, this person gave him the feeling that he was a living, real human being. ¡°Pi li pi li, let¡¯s decide the winner with one strike. Use the skill [ thunder and fire ] !¡± The body of the chestnut ball on the stage had become larger, and the whole body was surrounded by golden lightning. Ah Li¡¯s claws were bounced off, it returned to its original place, showing sharp teeth. And the chestnut ball gathered all the lightning in one place, shooting at Ah Li! ¡°Ah Li, use the wind, get out of the way!¡± Fang Yuan sensed that the situation was not good and said to Ah Li. Although it could reduce the lightning damage by 20% , the damage looked really terrible! Chapter 79 - The Heart of the Trainer Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The lightning ball was already in front of Ah Li. There was no time for Ah Li to dodge. Ah Li was hit and sent flying. Fortunately, Ah Li did not faint. Instead, it immediately woke up. At this time, Ah Li¡¯s body seemed to have been set on fire. Flames kept flashing behind its back. Looking at Ah Li¡¯s appearance, the chestnut ball man smiled and said, ¡°From now on, your pet will receive continuous fire damage.¡± As soon as he said that, he was stunned again. The fire on Ah Li¡¯s body had been extinguished! Not only did the special effect of the attack not take place, but the damage that Ah Li received seemed to be automatically healed. The chestnut ball man muttered to himself in confusion, ¡°How could it be? This move has a miraculous effect on thunder-type pets!¡± Although Fang Yuan did not know what had happened, he said, ¡°The hit rate of thunder-type damage to the same kind may not be 100%. Don¡¯t think that you can do whatever you want just because your level is high.¡± The chestnut ball man looked at Fang Yuan and said, ¡°You don¡¯t seem to understand the power of that move.¡± After saying this, the chestnut ball with the crown rose into the air again. His expression showed that he did not believe what was happening before his eyes. He launched another fireball attack. This time, it was even more exaggerating. It was totally ineffective. The chestnut ball man said with a cold face, ¡°Why? It¡¯s understandable that lightning damage is ineffective, but why is the fire damage ineffective?¡± Fang Yuan looked at Ah Li, who was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, he suddenly realized, ¡°It¡¯s due to spirit stone and thunderbird feather. Thunderbird feather reduces lightning damage, spirit stone reduces fire damage. Together with Ah Li¡¯s own resistance, it doesn¡¯t have any other damage except some slight physical damage!¡± After Fang Yuan¡¯s speculation, his confidence was rekindled. He pretended to be fine and said, ¡°Ah Li, use your sharp claws to attack!¡± However, the chestnut ball man was obviously not in the right state. He looked at Ah Li with a confused expression, as if he was mumbling something to himself. Fang Yuan found it funny. No matter how high his level and grade was, [ lightning crackle ] could not cause any damage to Ah Li. After all, Ah Li had the protection of [ thunderbird feather ] and [ fire soul stone ] . These were not things that ordinary people could come into contact with. Since he was not as skilled as Ah Li, he could not blame anyone else. Ah Li¡¯s sharp claws and the charm effect made it easy for it to scratch the platinum chestnut ball. The chestnut ball also changed its attack style. It no longer accumulated lightning, but pounced on Ah Li as if it wanted to use its huge body to crush it. ¡°Ah Li, let him experience the feeling of being penetrated by lightning!¡± Ah Li took advantage of the moment when chestnut ball was completely unprepared to unleash its full power. The effect was outstanding. On the other side, chestnut ball was already exhausted. No matter how its trainer controlled it, it would be ineffective. Could it be that the opponent¡¯s pet could use mind control? The chestnut ball was shocked, but the moment this thought appeared, their battle was already nearing its end. Ah Li opened its mouth, and a bolt of lightning shot out from her mouth. The target was obviously the chestnut ball¡¯s eyes! The chestnut ball¡¯s entire body was covered in thorns and had a hard outer shell, but its eyes were too big, making it the best living target! Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief after the final fatal blow. Seeing the chestnut ball fall, its trainer also knelt down. He smiled at Ah Li, who was in the ring. Such a powerful pet beast, yet the director casually threw it away. He was really blind. It seemed that Ah Li was not an ordinary pet beast at all. Even the way it evolved was fundamentally different from other pet beasts. As long as it reached platinum grade, its strength would be beyond imagination. After calming down, Fang Yuan turned to look at chestnut ball. He said with self-reproach, ¡°It¡¯s really a pity. As I¡¯m too weak, I can¡¯t avenge my clansmen.¡± Hearing his words, Fang Yuan¡¯s gaze fell on the chestnut ball again. The reason why they killed the chestnut ball so wantonly was partly to complete the mission, and partly because they felt that the pet beasts in the arcane realm had to get used to the survival principle of survival of the fittest. But in fact, they were also living beings. As soon as this thought appeared, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart also became heavy. Looking at him kneeling on the ground and crying in pain, Fang Yuan could not say a word. His desire to win had all been thrown to the back of his mind. Fang Yuan clenched his hands, feeling pity for him. At this moment, Lei Lin appeared. She deliberately walked towards the chestnut ball man and looked at him with deep and firm eyes. Then, she stretched out her hand and chanted an incantation to the sky. In an instant, the chestnut ball that was killed by Ah Li for the past few days seemed to have been reborn. ¡°Challenging the arcane realm is a fair competition for ability, but we are also willing to do our best to help every righteous trainer¡± Lei Lin said in standard commentary language. ¡°They¡­¡± Fang Yuan asked unconsciously, ¡°Do they really exist?¡± Lei Lin shook her head. Just as Fang Yuan wanted to ask more questions, Lei Lin suddenly disappeared. All that was left was the chestnut balls on the ground, and the chestnut ball man was staring at him. The chestnut ball man had lost so much face in front of Fang Yuan just now, and now he felt ashamed. However, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t look like a bad person. He looked up at Fang Yuan and suddenly realized that the reason why Fang Yuan could communicate with so many pet beasts was because he had the heart of a trainer. Everyone wanted pets, but very few people cared about the thoughts of pets. The [ heart of the trainer ] was a very vague concept, but only people with such thoughts could challenge the peak of the pet beast. After understanding, the chestnut ball man shook his head and summoned the chestnut balls back, walking toward Fang Yuan and Ah Li. Then, he looked at Ah Li. Without a doubt, Ah Li was the most suitable pet for Fang Yuan. The chestnut ball man reached out his hand to Ah Li. Fang Yuan wanted to stop him, but he saw through it. The chestnut ball man would not hurt Ah Li, but gave it an ability. ¡°I have already engraved the lightning fire mark on its body,¡± said the chestnut ball man. ¡°You can re-observe its skills.¡± Fang Yuan took a look at chestnut ball man and began to check Ah Li¡¯s attributes. The other attributes did not change, but there was an additional ¡°lightning fire¡± skill in the skill pane. [ Check skill: Lightning fire ] [ Description: Lightning fire is a special permanent skill. When a pet beast uses the lightning skill to cause damage, it will generate a ball of fire on the opponent¡¯s body. Every second, the opponent will deal 50% of the damage from this attack. Duration: one minute ] Fang Yuan was so shocked that he took a deep breath. This was an unimaginable powerful support skill for any thunder-type pet beast. It was equivalent to a skill that could deal 30 times the amount of damage. It just needed some time. With Ah Li¡¯s dodging skill, it was simply perfect. The chestnut ball man said, ¡°Thank you for the opportunity to fight with you. You are an excellent trainer. I have to go back and cultivate well. The next time I see you, I will not lose again.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. After the chestnut ball man disappeared, Fang Yuan began to confirm his points through the mission blueprint. He eliminated 10,000 chestnut balls and added 100 times the points, obtaining 50,000 points in one go. He had already gathered enough points to exchange for Pick¡¯s and Ah Li¡¯s evolution materials. There were still two days left on the map. He made another decision in his heart. Chapter 80 - Challenge the Divine Beast Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After returning to the stone house, Fang Yuan first exchanged for a Pick¡¯s evolution tools. In terms of evolution, Fang Yuan believed that Pick did not lack speed or damage. He was more interested in the special effect of ¡°turning yellow lightning into blue lightning.¡±. After choosing the item ¡°purple rat fur,¡± Fang Yuan thought that there would be an evolution option when the fur was in his hand. However, this item did not seem to have a grade and could not evolve. It should be a unique item. After throwing the purple fur to Pick, Pick¡¯s skin absorbed the purple fur. After mixing it with the previous color, it formed a brown color. It was as if the fur had been electrocuted. He opened his status bar and checked: [ Scientific Name: Thunder Picker. ] [ Bloodline: Elf. ] [ Quality: Platinum-low-grade. ] [ Attributes: Rat, thunder, elf. ] [ Position: Attack/Special. ] [ Skills: 1. Thunder, 2. Burrow, 3. Escape, 4. Spherical lightning. ] [ Personality: Coward. ] [ Hobbies: Nuts. ] [ Skill description: ¡­ ] [ Reproductive ability: Strong. ] The first skill was obviously a small evolution of the previous [ lightning strike ] skill. Originally, its nose would gather around 220 volts of electricity, so it did not look threatening at all. But now, it gathered blue lightning. As for how many volts, Fang Yuan could not test it, so he would turn to the professor for help. The second and third skills did not change, and its character was still as timid as a mouse. However, with the addition of the fourth skill, it sounded very powerful. ¡°Pick, use spherical lightning!¡± ¡°Pi¡­¡± Pick¡¯s entire body gathered blue lightning, and then turned into a ball, running at an extremely fast speed on the field. The duration was not long. After using it, Pick clearly entered a state of exhaustion, gasping for air. This seemingly ordinary skill, in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes, reminded him of a game from another world. He actually said to Pick, ¡°Pick, don¡¯t rest yet! try to release [ spherical lightning ] and [ thunder ] at the same time!¡± Pick looked at Fang Yuan nervously. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t seem to notice these small actions, and said in a serious tone, ¡°Xiao Jin is starving. He definitely won¡¯t mind eating a fat and lazy mouse.¡± Pick looked pitifully at Ah Li beside him. They had become good friends during this period of time. Ah Li gave him an encouraging look. After receiving Ah Li¡¯s encouragement, Pick clenched his teeth. His entire body was once again surrounded by lightning. At the same time, electricity started to gather at the tip of his nose. In the places where Pick ran, there would be one or two flashes of lightning from time to time. After running, Pick immediately fell to the ground, feeling dizzy. Lei Lin roughly understood what was going on. Fang Yuan had wanted Pick, a single pet, to use combination skill. This idea was extremely exaggerating and very creative. In fact, Fang Yuan had wanted to use Pick¡¯s high-speed lightning state to release lightning to cause double damage to the other party, just like the electric rat in a game called ¡°Lu Ah Lu¡±. However, Pick obviously couldn¡¯t do it. It seemed that he would have to catch a pet beast that could release lightning in the future, so that it could display the visual effects of Heavenly Thunder. Fang Yuan pretended to think deeply. As an elf, Lei Lin had no emotions, but seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s actions, she couldn¡¯t help but sigh at human creativity. She walked to Fang Yuan and said clearly, ¡°You can¡¯t succeed in creating skills this way. You still have to find the skill book first before you can trigger the memories in their hearts. I can guarantee that after learning the skill, the effect will be better than you think.¡± After receiving Lei Lin¡¯s guidance, Fang Yuan gave up on the method of training Ah Li and Pick in combination. He had originally planned to evolve Ah Li and Pick to platinum-grade, but now it was obvious that it would be better if Ah Li evolved into three tails. Therefore, after exchanging the materials, he could not evolve Ah Li for the time being. However, there was still a day and a half before he left the arcane realm. Fang Yuan thought that since Pick had already advanced to platinum-grade, Ah Li¡¯s strength was not weaker than platinum, and their training time was still relatively sufficient, Fang Yuan walked to the mission pane and accepted the S-rank mission. How could this be possible? Lei Lin himself should not be involved in these matters. Her duty was to guide the challengers of the arcane plane to complete the mission. However, after seeing Fang Yuan stay in the arcane realm for seven days and seven nights, he still wanted to continue challenging the S- rank mission, an expression of disbelief appeared on her face. However, only she herself knew what she was thinking. Fang Yuan did not have the time to care about her. He casually picked up the S-rank mission scroll and said to Ah Li, ¡°Can you give me a ride?¡± Ah Li cried out in protest, but Fang Yuan still rode on its body when it objected. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± A huge fox carried a man on its back, followed by a mouse with the size of a cat. Anyone who saw this scene would find it hilarious. Lei Lin looked at Fang Yuan blankly as he left. Wasn¡¯t this trainer a little too ridiculous? S-rank mission: Defeat the rattlesnake (platinum-low-grade). Reward points: 500. They arrived at the foot of the only mountain on the plain. Lightning and thunder crisscrossed on the mountain, even killed people. At this moment, the Earth seemed to be shaking. A thick lightning bolt fell beside Fang Yuan, creating a huge sound that shook the earth! Then, a snake that was about 20 meters long flew in the air, and its tail looked like a bell. Its eyes were red, and it was looking at Fang Yuan with a terrifying tongue! This was the target this time: Rattlesnake! [ Scientific Name: Rattlesnake (in its infancy) ] [ Bloodline: Rattlesnake. ] [ Quality: Platinum mid-grade. ] [ Attributes: Snake, lightning, divine beast. ] [ Positioning: Attack. ] [ Skills: 1. Lightning ball, 2. Dragon chariot, 3. Lightning horn charging, 4. Lightning array. ] [ Personality: ??? ] Fang Yuan immediately frowned when he saw the information about the rattlesnake. This arcane realm certification gave people a feeling that it was too much of a scam. They could only use pet beasts that corresponded to the arcane realm¡¯s elements. Hmph! Even if you are a divine pet, I still want to compete with you. Moreover, you are only a platinum mid-grade pet. It is not to the extent of allowing me to jump levels and fight with monsters. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan said loudly, ¡°Pick, you and Ah Li will fight together. Even if a dragon comes today, I want you to defeat it cleanly!¡± Pick was originally trembling, but when he heard Fang Yuan¡¯s words, he looked at Ah Li, who was crying softly, and mustered his courage. ¡°This battle is indeed very difficult. It all depends on the trainer¡¯s command ability. They don¡¯t have the ability to fly. You should only come and challenge after you get a flying pet.¡± Lei Lin was standing in the distance, watching everything. Although she didn¡¯t think Fang Yuan could win, she actually had a faint expectation in her heart. After all, she had waited for hundreds of years in this arcane realm to wait for the arrival of such a young man. Chapter 81 - Skils Combination without Scroll Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After a few rounds of attacks, although the damage by the rattlesnake was extremely terrifying, as every bolt of lightning landed on the ground created a large crater, this was a young rattlesnake that lacked battle experience. It actually didn¡¯t have any advantage against the agile Ah Li and Pick. ¡°Ah Li and Pick did a good job. Although the rattlesnake¡¯s lethality is high, its IQ isn¡¯t high. Moreover, due to the lethality of its moves which requires a long preparation time, we can think of a way to deal with it.¡± Fang Yuan saw Pick running several times, with fear appearing on its face, he quickly comforted, ¡°It¡¯s attacking again. You guys dodge in two directions!¡± Another bolt of lightning struck where Ah Li was just now. The rattlesnake was now in an angry state, and electricity began to gather on its body. Fang Yuan immediately noticed it, ¡°The rattlesnake is going to start charging its thunder horn, and it¡¯s ready to use the dragon chariot strike.¡± It seemed that all thunder-type pet beasts had similar moves. They wrapped themselves in electricity and then used their bodies to strike the other party. Not only could they cause physical damage, but they could also cause thunder-type damage with special effects such as paralysis. ¡°Speaking of which, do you want to die?¡± Lei Lin flew to Fang Yuan¡¯s side, picked him up, and flew into the air. ¡°The rattlesnake is not like a human pet beast. It doesn¡¯t care whether you are human or not. If you are hit by it, you will die.¡± ¡°Thank you for saving my life, little sister.¡± Fang Yuan thanked Lei Lin from the bottom of his heart, as the rattlesnake flew past his position just now. The two of them talked and soon arrived at the location of the safe zone on the map. Fang Yuan closed his eyes. He could see Ah Li and Pick¡¯s changing back and forth. The rattlesnake had failed to attack many times, and its stamina had started to decrease. Its lightning was not as strong as before. However, Ah Li and Pick were obviously more tired, and they were busy running for their lives. Fang Yuan, on the other hand, had a confident look on his face. He nodded slightly, he said to Ah Li and Pick, ¡°Although this is your first time working together, I believe that you will be able to cooperate and produce the effect that I want. Next, the rattlesnake will probably use her ultimate skill, lightning array. If I¡¯m not wrong, it should be the effect of a group lightning attack. It will take a long time to prepare.¡± Lei Lin looked at the person in front of her seriously and found that he was much more mature and calm than his peers. Moreover, he could understand unexplained skills. He was truly a talent. As expected, the rattlesnake stopped. Lightning continued to gather on its body. ¡°It may be very dangerous next, but you have to believe me.¡± Fang Yuan nodded after receiving the pet¡¯s approval, he said, ¡°Pick, get on Ah Li¡¯s body now. Ah Li, use the wind chasing skill to run towards the rattlesnake. Jump up when you are close to it. Pick, prepare a ball of lightning when Ah Li is running. When she jumps up, you will also sprint. I want you to use this acceleration to rush to the rattlesnake and then attack it fiercely!¡± Ah Li and Pick looked at each other and nodded at each other. Fang Yuan rubbed his hands. He was actually very worried if this would work. When the gryphon was fighting against the army ants, the army ants¡¯ fighting style then was still fresh in his mind. It was the coordination between pet beasts that was especially important. They could even display abilities that surpassed the combination skills of pet beasts. On the other side of the battlefield, the rattlesnake was summoning its most powerful lightning array. At this moment, she saw two little things running toward her. If it used lightning strike at this moment, it could easily turn them into ashes, but it couldn¡¯t. It had already accumulated enough power to almost release it. If it stopped now, it wouldn¡¯t have time to release other skills. As Ah Li jumped up, a blue lightning bolt flew from its body toward the rattlesnake. Although this lightning bolt was very small, in this lightning turbulent environment, any small mistake could lead the lightning bolt toward itself. The rattlesnake decided to give up on accumulating power, but at this moment, a numbing sensation came from its stomach and climbed up along her stomach. It felt a little itchy¡­ The rattlesnake¡¯s attention was diverted, but this was the time when iit was accumulating power to the extreme. Fang Yuan, who was far away, looked at the scene in front of him and couldn¡¯t help but break out in a cold sweat. Bolts of lightning as thick as a human body kept falling down, as if it was the end of the world. Ah Li dodged left and right, but it could not dodge such a dense lightning bolt. It had been hit several times. If not for the protection of the thunderbird feather, it would have died. The rattlesnake was in an even worse situation. Due to its huge size, and Pick was on her body attracting the lightning, it was struck again and again by the lightning that it had summoned. After withstanding more than 30 bolts of lightning, the rattlesnake finally could not hold on anymore. It howled and fell from the sky to the ground. ¡°Quick, send me there.¡± Fang Yuan pulled Lei Lin and pointed in the direction of the battle. ¡°I want to go back to my pet beasts.¡± When they arrived at the battlefield, Fang Yuan first took a look at Ah Li. Ah Li¡¯s body was covered with blood. When he came to the rattlesnake¡¯s position, it had almost turned into a roasted snake. There was not a part of its body that was not black. Seeing that the mouth of the rattlesnake was showing signs of movement, Fang Yuan quickly went over to take a look. It was actually Pick. Pick actually thought of hiding in the mouth of the rattlesnake when danger was approaching. It was brave enough to do this. If it was swallowed, probably it would have been digested. Compared to Pick, Ah Li¡¯s injury was obviously very serious. There was no cure here. Fang Yuan looked at Lei Lin for help. Just now, she had even resurrected chestnut balls. It should not be a problem to save Ah Li. He didn¡¯t know how Lei Lin felt, but she just stood there without moving. ¡°How can I save it?¡± Fang Yuan held Ah Li and stared at Lei Lin, observing her every move. Lei Lin sighed and walked to Ah Li. She sprinkled a bottle of red medicine on Ah Li, and then saw that the blood on Ah Li¡¯s body had been stopped. ¡°This is a hemostatic medicine. It can only temporarily prevent her from losing too much blood and dying.¡± Lei Lin sighed and said, ¡°If you really want to save her, hurry up and send her to your human pet veterinary hospital.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan could only nod his head. He came to the side of the rattlesnake and wanted to find the spoils of war from her body. Previously, he had already obtained the spoils of war from defeating the mountain giant. The rattlesnake was even stronger, so it should have something. As expected, he touched a white stone underneath the rattlesnake¡¯s carcass. [ Ding. White soul stone detected. Soul stone level: Grade-three.] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to proceed with the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a grade-three white soul stone. ] [ Second, obtain a grade-five white soul stone with a 100 times increase. ] [ Third, increase the quantity by a 100 times, obtain a 100 grade-three white soul stones. ] Option Two! After obtaining a grade-five soul stone, ¡°Lei Lin, send us out of the arcane realm!¡± Fang Yuan roared. A white light flashed, and Fang Yuan carried Ah Li and sat in front of the obelisk. Chapter 82 - Gryphon Legion! All Platinum! Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio A circle of curious people were in the surrounding, not knowing what had happened. They saw Fang Yuan sitting in front of the obelisk with a wind and thunder fox in his arms. He did not have time to send Ah Li back to the alternate dimension, so he summoned Xiao Jin to carry Ah Li on its back. Fang Yuan ignored the people around him. He quickly ran into the tavern and asked the uncle for the specific location of the nearest pet veterinary hospital. After getting the answer, Fang Yuan summoned another gryphon. Xiao Jin was carrying Ah Li on his back and he sat on the gryphon flying toward the hospital. Seeing Fang Yuan riding the gryphon, the pet veterinarians could tell at a glance that he was not an ordinary person. He either had a backer in his family or was born in a wealthy family. Otherwise, how could he have so many high-level pet beasts. Ah Li was pushed into the healing cabin. It suffered very serious injuries. Fang Yuan felt very guilty. Initially, he only wanted to get rid of the rattlesnake as soon as possible. Now, he had already decided in his heart that under the situation where the pet beast¡¯s level and grade were not enough, he could not let them forcefully challenge opponents who were much stronger than them. The rattlesnake was the best example. Ah Li was completely challenging platinum mid-grade with its gold-low-grade. In between, it had crossed too many levels! The damage completely filled up the gaps. Fang Yuan felt a little troubled besides feeling guilty. The opponents he was facing were getting stronger and stronger. His pets had to get stronger as soon as possible. Previously, he was good at commanding. He could use all kinds of attributes and skills to defeat his opponents. However, under the limited conditions, the battle between his pet beasts seemed to be too level-dependent. The damage that low-grade pet beasts could deal with was too low, a continuous attack could not even compare to the damage dealt by a high-level pet beast¡¯s skills. Instead of spending time to nurture a large number of pet beasts, it was better to focus on nurturing a few. For example, the Gryphon Legion only needed to raise their grades and levels. As for Ah Li, Pick, and Xiao Jin, not only did they need to raise their grades, their equipment and skills also needed to keep up. ¡°Ah Li, you have to try hard,¡± Fang Yuan said as he looked at Ah Li in the healing cabin. At this moment, Fang Yuan felt Ah Li¡¯s response, even though it was only a faint voice. Only then did Fang Yuan feel relieved. It was good that Ah Li was fine. Fang Yuan found a random restaurant outside the hospital to eat. He began to think about the difference between himself and other trainers. His advantage was the 100 times amplification system. But putting aside the system, what was the advantage of him and the pet beast? Fang Yuan began to think calmly. The chestnut ball man told him that he had the heart of a trainer and could understand the feelings of the pet beast. This could be considered an advantage. During normal training, he could interact closely with the pet beast to increase its favorability and improve the training effectiveness. He could use many pet beasts, which was also an advantage. Many trainers only knew to increase the level of the pet beast, but they did not understand the cooperation between the pet beasts. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan summoned Pick. ¡°Pick, did you learn anything from cooperating with Ah Li just now?¡± ¡°Jijijiji,¡± Pick waved its hands and shouted, looking quite funny. Ah Li had already woken up. Although its body was a little weak, it did not need to fight for the time being. He put Ah Li back into the alternate dimension and let it rest peacefully. He had finally completed the challenge of the Thunder Arcane Realm and obtained the level three Thunder Arcane Realm certification. All the information about thunder-type pet beasts below platinum had been written on his mind. Good! Now, he would return to school first. Fang Yuan sat on Xiao Jin¡¯s back and patted its neck. He said, ¡°Xiao Jin, it¡¯s been hard on you during this period of time. You have been flying everywhere. After a period of time, I will bring you to the Grand Canyon to fly freely!¡± Xiao Jin flapped its wings and let out a cheerful cry. This sound was so loud that it attracted the attention of the other people in the hospital. However, at this moment, Xiao Jin had already flapped its wings and was flying high. Fang Yuan looked at the gradually shrinking figure under his feet and said with a smile, ¡°Your speed is too slow. Can you be a little faster?¡± Xiao Jin flapped its wings with all its might and then retracted its wings. It formed a streamline shape and glided forward. ¡°Good, this is the feeling!¡± Fang Yuan sat on the gryphon and felt the wind blowing on his face. He confidently brought his pet beasts and flew towards the school. ¡­ Soon, Fang Yuan landed on the school field. This time, it was not meal time. Many students were playing soccer on the field or playing with their pet beasts. When Xiao Jin appeared, many pet beasts were so scared that they hid behind their owners. Fang Yuan thought with a smile, ¡°So it turns out that Pick is not the only timid pet beast.¡± After Xiao Jin landed, Fang Yuan immediately put him back into the alternate dimension. It was too charming, and it would affect Fang Yuan¡¯s freedom in the school. The destination of this trip was none other than Zhao Ren¡¯s laboratory. Placing 120 bottles of evolution medicine in front of Fang Yuan, Zhao Ren was completely exhausted. He and his pet beast had worked hard in the laboratory for a day and a night to concoct so much evolution potion. After distributing the 19 bottles of evolution potion to Zhao Ren, the only thing Fang Yuan thought of was to evolve the gryphon legion. Through the battles during this period of time, Fang Yuan realized that if a pet was to evolve using evolution potions, it would tend to evolve towards the most basic direction. Only by using the special evolution materials for various attribute from the arcane realms would the evolved pet be unique and have the strongest lethality. Therefore, he did not want to give it to his pet that fought alone. It was only suitable for the Gryphon Legion to evolve in batches. However, he still kept one bottle. He wanted to give this potion to Ah Li. Ah Li¡¯s current grade was too low. It was only gold-low-grade. If it directly advanced to platinum-low-grade, it would have to shed three layers of skin. Its life might be in danger. However, Ah Li had just gone through a life and death test. Its body was weak, so he would not let Ah Li evolve for the time being. Instead, he was keeping it. Zhao Ren promptly put the evolution potion that Fang Yuan gave him into the cabinet. Those were bottles of potion that were comparable to diamonds. He happily locked them in the protective cabinet using the key. It seemed that even if the laboratory exploded, it would not be able to harm the potions the slightest. Now, the gryphons were no longer as small as they were when they hatched. The smallest gryphons had reached the size of an adult lioness. To evolve so many gryphons, he had to find a huge place. After thinking about it, he could only find a playground. The pet beast that was frightened by Xiao Jin just now had just regained its calm state. They saw Fang Yuan and Zhao Ren holding two boxes of medicine and placing them on the playground. Fang Yuan summoned 100 gryphons at once, almost filling up the playground. Zhao Ren and his monkey pet beast were also shocked. Although they knew that Fang Yuan was ridiculously strong, seeing it with their own eyes and hearing it with their own eyes were completely different shocks. ¡°Line up in two rows. Go to the boxes to get the evolution potion, then go to the end of the line to drink it,¡± Fang Yuan ordered the gryphon legion. Therefore, a historic scene appeared on the playground of Chuxin City high school¡­ The group of gryphons were like students queuing for their food, lining up to receive a potion bottle. After drinking the potion, they showed a painful expression and struggled on the side. By the time it returned to normal, the vigor was completely different! This was the platinum gryphon legion! Chapter 83 - Evolution Potions and Materials Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After the evolution of the gryphon legion, the scene on the playground was quite spectacular. Many brave students surrounded the gryphon legion and took selfies with them before entering their personal space. ¡°Look, the gryphons in our school. The wild gryphons are always so charming,¡± a young girl wrote in her space. She added the nine squares of the gryphon legion and took a selfie of herself in the middle, as if it was her gryphons. There were also naughty students who were unwilling to lag behind. They tried to climb onto the gryphons repeatedly. If Fang Yuan didn¡¯t stop them, they would have been bitten by the gryphons. A few students were scared by the wind when the gryphons were feeling uncomfortable and flapped their wings. At this moment, Zhao Ren was more concerned about the specific data. He took the instrument and tested all the way. Each time he tested a gryphon, he wrote down the grade of the gryphon in his notebook, and created a form. At this time, Zhao Ren¡¯s notebook had already recorded sixty platinum low-grade iron gryphons, and only two had evolved to platinum mid-grade. He extracted the blood from the two gryphons, numbered the bottles of the potions they had taken, and went back to study further. Considering that the effects of the gryphon legion were too sensational, Fang Yuan summoned them back into the space. Then, Fang Yuan remembered something and asked Zhao Ren, ¡°Dr. Zhao, do you know the evolution path of pet beasts?¡± ¡°Are you saying that pet beasts will evolve into different effects if they use different materials?¡± Zhao Ren pushed his glasses up and put his hand into his pocket. ¡°Actually, most trainers can¡¯t reach that level at all. Many people¡¯s pet beasts are what they were born with until they die. They just keep fighting to raise the levels of their pet beasts.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He felt that this was indeed the case. Compared to letting their pet beasts evolve, people were more inclined to buy or capture powerful pet beasts. It was indeed because of this that there was a vast market for evolution potions. ¡°Actually, there are many kinds of evolution in the pet world. For example, there are a lot of ways to break through the limits of evolution through battles, or there are ways to use a variety of materials to evolve and completely change the attributes of the evolution method. Unfortunately, people¡¯s research on pet beasts is still superficial,¡± Zhao Ren said. He had told Fang Yuan everything he knew, and it was time for him to leave. After Zhao Ren left, Fang Yuan looked at the three-tailed force (thunder) in his hand. This thing was obviously a material, but it could not activate the system to enhance it. It seemed to be a unique existence. Ah Li was a cub that he had snatched from Liu Xiwen. Now that it had grown up, the next time he went to the University of Science and Technology, he would ask about its specific condition.. ¡­ After resting in the school for two days, Fang Yuan felt that Ah Li¡¯s condition was much better. Moreover, Ah Li liked to stay with humans, so he usually would let Ah Li and Pick play together. Now, it was very close to the time of the college entrance examination. The grade-12 students were all engrossed in their studies in the classroom or practicing on the training ground. Results were the most important thing to the students. ¡°Hey, which class are you in? Why are you skipping class?¡± It was the time for class. A teacher found Fang Yuan sitting in the park in a daze. She thought that he was a student who came out to relax because his grades were bad. As a teacher, it was necessary for her to guide them. But she quickly stopped, because she found that Fang Yuan was also carrying two pet beasts. The two pet beasts were chasing each other. The teacher could not help but feel a little annoyed. It would have been fine if they were pure bad students, but the student in front of him had two pet beasts. No matter what, he was still a student with better grades. If such a student skipped class, it would not be good. She was ready to teach them a lesson. ¡°Let¡¯s have a duel. If I win, you can go back and copy the basic rules of pet beast training a hundred times.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Fang Yuan was in a daze when he was suddenly awakened by the voice. He did not know what had happened, but the teacher seemed to have summoned a bee pet to fight with him. ¡­ Pick easily took care of the bee. He did not even need to use spherical lightning. Only the teacher was half kneeling on the ground with an incredulous expression. At this moment, Fang Yuan realized that he had unknowingly reached the height of battle, especially during this period of time when he was fighting monsters above his level. He seemed to have lost his interest in the battles between ordinary pets. ¡°However, the teacher is right about one thing. Now is the time for the college entrance exam. It¡¯s not the time to rest.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s phone suddenly sent out some notifications. It was actually an invitation from the admissions director of the University of Science and Technology to the ¡°Grass Arcane Realm¡±, as well as invitations from the noble schools to the ¡°Wind Arcane Realm¡± and the ¡°Water Arcane Realm¡±. Only the Iron Castle Military Academy had forgotten about this. As these arcane realms were owned by the universities, people who did not have an invitation could not directly challenge them. The most powerful pet beast he had now was the platinum mid-grade Xiao Jin. To challenge the Wind Arcane Realm, there was no doubt that his strongest card was Xiao Jin [ steel gryphon ] ; To challenge the Grass Arcane Realm, he only had the [ healing bee queen ] , a grass-type pet beast As for the remaining water arcane realm and fire arcane realm, if he wanted to use the corresponding elemental pet beast, he did not have suitable pet beasts. It seemed that he had to go to the pet shop to take a look. Fang Yuan then suddenly remembered something. Since the Iron Castle Military Academy and the Aristocrat Academy were both having the water arcane realm, he had to look for the fire arcane realm. He planned and decided to go to the wind arcane realm first. After that, he would look for water-type pet beasts in the Demon City. As the Demon City was quite far away, it was better to challenge them all at one go. After making up his mind, Fang Yuan bought a ticket to the Demon City. The distance was too far, and he had to consider that Xiao Jin had to prepare for the challenge, so it was inconvenient to fly there by gryphon. ¡­ He sat by the window and looked at the scenery outside. It felt really good. The train was not very fast, but it was precisely because of this that he could enjoy the fun of the journey. There were still 30 days before the college entrance exam. The other students were all immersed in their studies in the classroom, but because Fang Yuan had chosen another route, he did not need to study anymore. This route, which was rarely taken by people, was much more difficult than other students. In the train, the attendant was pushing a trolley selling iced drinks. It was a peaceful environment. Fang Yuan started to feel sleepy and was about to close his eyes to rest. Suddenly, the train started to jolt, and the attendant announced in the broadcast, ¡°Dear passengers, please close the doors and windows. We are currently under attack by the demonized bees! Repeat, we are currently under attack. Aiya!!!¡± Fang Yuan opened his eyes and saw that it was pitch black outside the train. The bees were surrounding the train, so it had no choice but to stop. ¡°Another incident of demonized pets attacking humans? Isn¡¯t it too frequent recently?¡± An old woman hugged her crying grandson and comforted him. The people in the train started to discuss. Chapter 84 - Hero on Stage Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Security team! Requesting Assistance!¡± In the cab of the train, a crew member kept shouting through the pager. ¡°Please tell me your location,¡± replied the pager. After the crew member reported the specific location, he was hit by the impact of a huge bee crashing onto the other side of the carriage. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect these pet beasts to be so scary!¡± There were pet trainers in the carriage. They had already summoned their pet beasts and were ready to rush out to fight the bees to the death. ¡°Don¡¯t go out! Your pet can¡¯t fly, and it¡¯s not good at aerial combat. You just need to make preparations in the carriage and protect the passengers in the carriage!¡± One of the attendants saw that the courageous trainer wanted to go out, he was very touched. However, after seeing his pet, he felt that the chance of winning was slim, so he said this to him. ¡°Since we will die waiting here, why not go out and fight with them?¡± The bald trainer with a full beard said, ¡°Cloud Monkey, you think so too, right?¡± ¡°Jijiji!¡± The gold mid-grade Cloud Monkey roared, as if he intended to fight with his master to the end. This atmosphere had influenced others in the carriage. Many trainers also stood up and summoned their pets. ¡°Why didn¡¯t we train properly? Let¡¯s try hard to survive this incident.¡± The youth with braids and gorgeous clothes said as he summoned his black-scaled spider. ¡°Mmm. Now you know the importance of training!¡± A man who looked like a tutor said. Just when the tension in the carriage reached its peak, Fang Yuan stood up. The steward was about to open the door. He looked at the young man in front of him., smiled and said, ¡°Young man, you are not a trainer, right? Just wait in the carriage. We will end this riot. Don¡¯t worry.¡± With that, the steward let the trainers go near the door. He would open the door and let them go out, and then close the door to prevent other passengers in the carriage from being hurt. Fang Yuan stood by the door and said to the steward, ¡°Let me go out first.¡± The steward looked at the half-grown child in front of him, who was still wearing the uniform of a high school student. The bearded man next to him directly lifted Fang Yuan up, intending to throw him back to his seat. But at this moment, a huge impact shook the train from left to right, and it was almost in danger of flipping over. The train door was pushed open, and a huge bee rushed into the carriage! [ Scientific name: Armored Bee ] [ Bloodline: None ] [ Rarity: Gold high-grade ] [ Attributes: Insect, grass, iron ] [ Positioning: Attack/defense ] [ Skills: 1. Honey brewing; 2. Sprint; 3. Bee control; 4. Bee sting ] ¡°Since it¡¯s a bee, I don¡¯t know if my queen bee can control it.¡± Fang Yuan did not care about the stares of others, and immediately summoned the healing queen bee. ¡°Use the bee-controlling skill!¡± He ordered the queen bee. The queen bee stared at the iron-armored bee. The iron-armored bee seemed to be struggling, and after a while, it directly rushed toward the queen bee! No use? Fang Yuan was afraid that his mother¡¯s pet was in danger, so he immediately summoned Xiao Jin to block in front of the queen bee. The iron-armored bee and the steel gryphon collided, making a huge impact sound. However, iron was still much weaker than steel. The iron-armored bee was dizzy from the collision, and then it was flapped out of the carriage by the gryphon¡¯s wings. Fang Yuan turned over and sat on Xiao Jin¡¯s body, then flew out of the carriage. ¡°Come out, Gryphon Legion!¡± He stretched out his hand and faced the dense iron-armored bee in the sky without the slightest fear. The attendant didn¡¯t say anything. He just stared blankly at what was happening outside the carriage, making him feel the wonders of the world. The noble youth secretly made up his mind that he must train well to reach the level of this youth in front of him. Fang Yuan commanded the gryphon legion in the air, ¡°According to your current abilities, I want you to eliminate all of these bees without affecting the safety of the train. You can not use strong winds, raise your armor, and engage in head-on melee combat with the enemy!¡± ¡°Who is he?¡± The conductor asked curiously when he saw that the bees had been attracted away by the gryphons in the sky. ¡°It seems that you need to acquire more knowledge.¡± The assistant next to him smiled and explained, ¡°Who else could have so many gryphons and be able to control them with ease other than that young man?¡± The conductor didn¡¯t expect that there was a trainer in the world who could control so many pets, so he remembered the news. When people mentioned the Gryphon Legion, they would immediately think of the name ¡°Fang Yuan¡±. The conductor asked worriedly, ¡°If he can¡¯t deal with the bees, what should we do next?¡± ¡°Then we can only wait for death, or we can take the opportunity when the young man is fighting with the bees to drive our cars and run away.¡± The assistant suddenly said seriously, ¡°Although the Gryphon Legion is very powerful, the number of demonized bees is too large. It seems that the odds of winning are not high. So¡­ my suggestion is to run away.¡± After the conductor heard these words, although he was a little scared, he still said, ¡°We can hide for a while. Our speed is faster than the bees. If the young man is killed, it¡¯s only a matter of time before they catch up with us. So¡­ we should wait.¡± Was there no other way? The train conductor anxiously picked up his phone, but found that the line was not working. It seemed that there must be a lot of people calling the police at this time, which caused the line to be busy. It was not that they did not want to help Fang Yuan, but they were too weak and could not help at all. The highest-grade pet they had was only gold high-grade. The most was they could only have a tie with any of the bees. Why were they gathered here? Fang Yuan felt very strange. The human train would definitely not choose a dangerous location to build a railway. However, looking at the crazy swarm of bees in front of him, he suddenly had a good idea. He rode Xiao Jin and turned around to fly high into the sky. The other gryphons seemed to have received the order and flew over together. The iron-armored bees were in a state of anger. Naturally, they would not let them go. Seeing the iron-armored bees chasing after the gryphons, Fang Yuan let out a knowing smile. He ordered the gryphons to spread out and surround the iron-armored bees in the middle. At this point, they were already far away from the train. They could use the gale skill! They swept the iron-armored bees together and then ¡ª combined attack skill: Destructive Storm! Two platinum intermediate-grade iron gryphons, who could withstand such a combination skill? Many of the armored wasps¡¯ bodies had already been torn to shreds. More of the armored wasps collided with each other, emitting a clanging sound as they fell to the ground. This kind of skill was what Fang Yuan had wanted to create with Ah Li and Pick previously. However, it was still impossible without a scroll. The danger was finally resolved. Nearly 500 armored wasps fell from the sky. The ground was like a meteorite crashing into it, creating deep craters one after another. Chapter 85 - Skill Evolution Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°How could there be such a powerful person in this world?¡± When the conductor was young, he had traveled extensively and had seen many things. However, this was the first time he had seen such an intense battle. Fang Yuan had already recalled the gryphon legion and landed on the ground riding on Xiao Jin. The conductor opened the carriage and all the crew members followed behind him. He shouted, ¡°Salute!¡± Hearing the conductor¡¯s words, all the attendants gave Fang Yuan a standard salute to express their gratitude. ¡°It¡¯s a small matter. The train can still start, right? I¡¯m in a hurry to take an exam.¡± Fang Yuan was already used to such a scene. He didn¡¯t have time to be polite with others. Instead, he asked anxiously. ¡°If you want to take the exam, we can set off now. Everyone in position, tidy up the carriage odds. We will continue to move forward and escort the hero to the exam hall,¡± the conductor said seriously. ¡°Yes!¡± The crew members started to get busy and turned around to run into the carriage. Through Fang Yuan¡¯s battle, all the passengers on the train were saved. To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for Fang Yuan, when the guards arrived, it would be another matter if they could defeat these armored bees. By then, the armored bees would probably have torn the carriage apart, and the passengers would definitely have suffered heavy casualties. When Fang Yuan walked into the carriage, a steward helped him carry the package (actually, it was just a schoolbag) and happily led Fang Yuan to the VIP carriage. The environment and view here were much better. At this time, Fang Yuan was sleepy again, and soon fell asleep. ¡­ He was awakened by the steward, and now he had arrived at Demon City. According to the notification on his phone, the location of the wind arcane realm was not far from the station. The sky had already darkened. It was already night time. Fang Yuan decided to find a hotel to rest for the night and then challenge the arcane realm the next day. However, he did not notice that behind him, there were two sneaky figures following him. He was no longer a poor kid, so Fang Yuan could stay in a better hotel. On the big bed in the hotel, Fang Yuan took out his phone and carefully studied the relevant information about the wind arcane realm. After searching for a while in the menu, he finally found a line of words: Arcane realms were divided into ordinary arcane realm and trial arcane realm. Ordinary arcane realms were places where pet beasts of the corresponding level undergo trials to increase their levels. Trial arcane realms were arcane realms that only trainers like Fang Yuan, who need to obtain the arcane realm certification, could enter. Pet beasts of the corresponding attributes of the realm were required. ¡°No wonder the feeling of entering the arcane realms these few times was different from the first time I entered the arcane realm. It seems to be because of this pendant on me.¡± Fang Yuan picked up the pendant. Now, there were two gemstones, brown and purple. It seemed to correspond to the Earth Arcane Realm and the Thunder Arcane Realm. ¡­ ¡°Are you Fang Yuan? The director has informed me. Are you going to enter the Wind Arcane Realm now?¡± Early in the next morning, Fang Yuan went to the venue that guarded the Wind Arcane Realm after eating. He answered calmly, ¡°Yes.¡± Then, he filled up the form as before. ¡°Here you are. This is a level-two Wind Arcane Realm map. If you follow this path, you will be able to see the wind arcane realm obelisk. I wish you good luck.¡± [ Ding. Arcane realm map detected. Map level: Level-two. Duration: 24 hours ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following methods to proceed with the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a level-two map to enter the level-two wind arcane realm. ] [ Second, 100 times increase in quality and obtain a level-four map to enter the level-three wind arcane realm. ] [ Third, 100 times increase in time and obtain a level-two map to enter the level-three wind arcane realm. Duration of the wind arcane realm is 240 hours. ] Without hesitation, he chose the level-three wind arcane realm trial. A ray of light appeared in front of Fang Yuan. As the light dissipated, Fang Yuan appeared in a magical place. This was a city floating in the sky. The clouds in the surrounding could be clearly seen. ¡°Young man, are you here to challenge for the Wind Arcane Realm¡¯s certification?¡± Looking towards the direction of the voice heard, it was a short old man who looked somewhat similar to the Earth old man. However, he held a stick in his hand and was sitting on the clouds. He had the demeanor of an immortal. Fang Yuan nodded and said calmly, ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m here to be certified by the wind arcane realm.¡± ¡°Come with me.¡± The old man did not come on land. He sat cross-legged on the cloud and moved toward a short tower. Fang Yuan was already familiar with the reward column. He walked straight to the bottom of the reward column and looked at it. ¡°Platinum Wing¡±¨C increased the flying speed of the iron gryphon and slightly increased its defense; ¡°Feather of the Storm¡±¨C increased the flapping speed of iron gryphon¡¯s wings, increased the forming speed of gale, increased the power of gale; ¡°Steel Claw¡±¨C increased the strength of iron gryphon¡¯s claws, increased its physical attack, increased the damage loss effect of attack by 15%; ¡°Eye of the Lion¡±¨C increased the deterrence of iron gryphon, could cause a deterrence effect on pets of the same level. Of course, there was also one of the important objectives of his trip: ¡°Three Tails Strength (Wind)¡±¨C increased the speed attribute of the wind and thunder fox, and evolved into three tails (Wind) . After reading the reward column, Fang Yuan already had a preliminary understanding of the evolution of pet beasts. It was a tool for evolution, which meant to greatly increase a skill, which meant to evolve the pet beast in different directions. When the pet was upgraded, all its attributes would be increased, but the materials were equivalent to a personalized upgrade of the pet¡¯s strength. For example, if he wanted to train steel gryphons as defensive pets, he could always choose the materials for defense. Eventually, when the pet reached the highest level, its defense attributes would be exaggerated to a certain extent. However, there were exceptions. For example, for a pet like Ah Li, which required a variety of materials to evolve, its final attributes would probably be off the charts. Such a pet beast was extremely precious and rare at the moment. ¡°Wind Old Man,¡± Fang Yuan asked, ¡°My gryphon has already evolved to platinum mid-grade. Can I use these evolution materials again?¡± Being called Wind Old Man, the wind guardian was extremely angry. ¡°Who are you to call me Wind Old Man?! How dare you! I am Immortal Wind!¡± ¡°Oh, I¡¯m sorry!¡± Fang Yuan apologized, ¡°It¡¯s because you look too much like Earth Old Man.¡± Immortal Wind blew his beard and glared, ¡°Humph, so you¡¯ve already been to that stubborn old man¡¯s place. Then you should be very familiar with the certification rules. I won¡¯t explain anymore. Go and receive your mission.¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°You haven¡¯t answered my question.¡± The purpose of his visit this time was to get the wind arcane realm certification, and the other was to upgrade the gryphons. But now, it seemed that a level-three arcane realm could only upgrade pet beasts to platinum level, and could not continue to upgrade further. However, his gryphon legion had all advanced, so he was confused. ¡°The upgrade that you said was only increase in their level, but their skills were not enhanced. Of course, it¡¯s possible,¡± Immortal Wind said unhappily, as if he was very angry at being called an old man. ¡°Then¡­¡± ¡°Give up the idea! You can only upgrade their skills. It¡¯s impossible for you to get another upgrade reward.¡± Immortal Feng knew that Fang Yuan wanted to ask if he would upgrade them again, but it was obviously impossible. Chapter 86 - The Terrifying Gryphon Legion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan was delighted. Since he could level up the skills, he had to plan it out properly. Right now, his steel gryphon legion¡¯s attack style was a little too simple. He could feel it from the battle with the armored bees just now. If he could evolve it in a different direction, then his gryphon legion would become a real army and would be invincible. He came to the mission panel and glanced at the missions. D rank mission: Eliminate cicadas in the clouds *20 (silver-high)(Infinite), reward points: 5 C rank mission: Eliminate large wind sparrow (gold-low), reward points: 10 B rank mission: Eliminate flying apes (gold-mid), reward points: 50 A rank mission: Eliminate blue cloth crystal bird (gold-peak , reward points: 100 S rank mission: Defeat the underworld dragon (platinum-low), reward points: 500 A thought flashed through Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. He asked, ¡°Can I accept all the missions at the same time?¡± Immortal Wind said disdainfully, ¡°Of course you can, but you have to pay attention to the time. You only have 24 hours in the arcane realm. Even if you complete the mission and don¡¯t come back to collect it, you will be forced out of the arcane realm. You will not be allowed to enter again for a month. You have to think carefully. Young people like to aim too high¡­¡± Just as the old man was criticizing nonstop, Fang Yuan had already obtained all the mission scrolls. Coming to the square in the courtyard, Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°Come out! Gryphon Legion!¡± A hundred gryphons stood in the formation of square. ¡°Today, I¡¯m going to give you a mission. You can complete it yourselves,¡± Fang Yuan said. Xiao Yin was the deputy commander of the Gryphon Legion, while Xiao Jin was the main commander, standing by Fang Yuan¡¯s side. ¡°Xiao Yin, you lead a small team to find the blue cloth crystal bird and kill it. You guys each go to the mission area that I¡¯ve arranged for you to kill the corresponding pet beasts. Do you have the confidence?!¡± ¡°Roar!¡± The gryphons let out the earth-shattering roars. ¡°Set off!¡± Fang Yuan imitated the general¡¯s tone of command. As he shouted the command, the gryphons flew in different directions to look for different mission monsters. Immortal Wind¡¯s eyes widened when he saw the scene in front of him. ¡°This youngster can actually control a hundred platinum-grade gryphons. This is a little out of my expectations,¡± Immortal Wind muttered to himself. Fang Yuan was riding on Xiao Jin. Their target was shockingly: ¡°S rank mission, underworld dragon.¡± ¡°Hey!¡± Looking at Fang Yuan¡¯s retreating figure, Immortal Wind shouted, ¡°You guys have to pay attention to protecting the ecological balance. Don¡¯t kill them all!¡± A group of platinum grade gryphons was simply an invincible existence in a level-three arcane realm of wind. If they were in a real arcane realm, they might encounter fierce beasts from another world. However, in the arcane realm of trials, there were only these restricted pet beasts. [ Scientific Name: Underworld Asian Dragon ] [ Bloodline: Viper ] [ Quality: Platinum high-grade ] [ Attributes: Asian dragon, wind, poison ] [ Positioning: Attack, control ] [ Skills: 1. Venom, 2. Toxic skin, 3. Wind movement, 4. Wind splitting slash ] [ Personality: ??? ] Soon, Fang Yuan and Xiao Jin followed the light and arrived in front of a mountain. Fang Yuan asked Xiao Jin to put him down. Next, he was going to command Xiao Jin to fight. Facing the Underworld Dragon that was only one tier higher, Xiao Jin had no fear at all. The speed of the Underworld Dragon was not fast. Only with wind-walk could it barely catch up with Xiao Jin. The only thing that he had to be careful of was its poison. Every time it attacked the netherworld dragon, Xiao Jin would fall into a poisoned state. This was an extremely disgusting thing. Xiao Jin dodged the netherworld dragon¡¯s attack very smoothly. However, Xiao Jin was a melee fighter. The skin of the netherworld dragon was full of poison. After the attack, it felt very uncomfortable. However¡­ Fang Yuan immediately remembered that he could summon a pet beast of the corresponding attribute into the arcane realm. He still had one wind pet beast. ¡°Come out, Ah Li.¡± At this moment, a bug appeared. Fang Yuan had tried to summon other pet beasts in the Earth Arcane Realm before, but he did not get any response. It seemed that the connection between them was blocked by a mysterious power. Ah Li had both the wind and thunder attributes, so it could also be summoned in the wind arcane realm. More importantly, Ah Li could use lightning skills! ¡°Ah Li, you have learned a lightning fire skill in the Thunder Arcane Realm. Now is the time to show your strength.¡± ¡°Xiao Jin, stop attacking. Use gale to slow down the opponent and make it unable to move.¡± Xiao Jin¡¯s body was poisoned. Fortunately, its resistance was high, so its injuries were not serious. It was just that it could not continue attacking. Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s instructions, it immediately began to fight with the Underworld Asian Dragon. On the other hand, Ah Li was opening its mouth and accumulating electricity! Thunder bomb! A bolt of lightning hit the Underworld Dragon. Although the lightning damage was not very high, the underworld dragon clearly only had high wind resistance and poison resistance. After being hit by the lightning, it was stunned for a moment. Noticing Ah Li, it had wanted to attack Ah Li. However, it was blocked by the steel gryphon. Every time it wanted to charge, it would be blinded by the gryphon¡¯s sand. It sprayed poison on the gryphon, and the gryphon quickly dodged it. Moreover, its body was burning with flames. This was the special effect of Ah Li¡¯s new skill awakened in the Thunder Arcane Realm. Not long after, the Underworld Asian Dragon was flustered and exasperated. Blood was boiling in its heart, and it burned as it fell. However, its body did not fall down like it had imagined. Instead, it landed on the cloud. ¡°Xiao Jin, go and search for soul stones on its body.¡± Fang Yuan did not know if he could stand on the cloud, but he did not dare to take the risk. Thus, he asked Xiao Jin to search the carcass of the underworld dragon. After a while, Xiao Jin flew to Fang Yuan with a green stone in its mouth. It placed the stone on his palm. [ Ding. Green soul stone detected. Soul stone level: Grade three. ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following methods for the increase. ] [ First, give up on the 100 times increase and obtain a level-three green soul stone. ] [ Second, 100 times increase in quality and obtain a level-five green soul stone. ] [ Third, 100 times increase in effect and obtain a level-three green soul stone. The green soul stone enhances the pet¡¯s maximum rage by a 100 times. ] The maximum rage increase was not very useful. Without hesitation, he chose the level-five soul stone and placed it in the space. ¡°Let¡¯s go back to the shrine.¡± Fang Yuan flipped on Xiao Jin¡¯s back and headed towards the trial. While flying, he did not forget to summon the other gryphons back to the shrine. Even if the mission was not completed, it did not matter. The most important thing now was to level up their skills. With the return of the gryphons, there were only two hours left on the map. After exchanging 20 sets of all kinds of gryphon evolution materials, and then the exchange for Ah Li¡¯s evolution materials as well as the certification of the wind arcane realm, Fang Yuan¡¯s accumulated points were all used up. If it was not for the 100 times increase system, it would be a fool¡¯s dream to have such a powerful pet beast legion. Chapter 87 - Heart of the Sea Pet Shop Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Immortal Wind and Fang Yuan stared at each other. The Gryphon Legion had completed their evolution and almost all the materials of the arcane realm had been exchanged. He coughed and voiced out the question in his heart, ¡°Young man, a normal trainer¡¯s spiritual power can only support five pet beasts at most. How did you manage to control so many gryphons at the same time?¡± This was indeed the biggest puzzle in his heart. It was because he had seen more than once a trainer who challenged the certification of the wind arcane realm, and there were many people who were stronger than Fang Yuan, but he had never seen a person who could control so many pet beasts at the same time. This was simply like a person was a legion. Fang Yuan did not know how to answer this question. After all, there was no scientific way to explain it, and even if he did, he would not believe him. Immortal Wind thought that Fang Yuan had some reservations, so he didn¡¯t dare to say it out loud. He said, ¡°Young man, you are looking down on me. Even if you were to teach me the secret skill, it¡¯s useless. I can¡¯t leave the arcane realm, and I also don¡¯t have time to chat with others.¡± Then what are you doing now? Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t help but think. ¡°Sigh, actually, your pet isn¡¯t the strongest. Among the people who take the test, you can only be considered to be at good level. Trainers who have exceeded a certain limit have their own tricks. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t tell me.¡± Immortal Wind knocked on his walking stick, and continued to say, ¡°Are you going to continue staying in this arcane realm to level up your pets or are you going to leave now?¡± Fang Yuan was slightly shocked. He had not expected that his platinum intermediate grade pet and the steel gryphon legion were only rated as ¡®good¡¯ in Immortal Feng¡¯s eyes. The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had so many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It was indeed worthy of the reputation of the Yan Prefecture. Just as he was in a daze, Immortal Wind suddenly whispered into Fang Yuan¡¯s ear, ¡°Fang Yuan, I have high hopes for you, so I would like to reveal something to you. Half a month ago, a young man had brought a young dragon to participate in the test. It had only used less than a minute to annihilate the hell¡¯s wyvern. Although you have many pet beasts, but I can tell that you are definitely not his match.¡± Fang Yuan naturally did not care about such comments because he had not really fought. He did not think that he would lose, and perhaps Immortal Wind had said this to deliberately anger him. ¡°What does that have to do with me?¡± Fang Yuan asked doubtfully. ¡°If you want to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, you will face challenges from various trainers on the day of the entrance exam. Their selection method is very unique. No matter how strong you are, you may be eliminated. You will never know the selection criteria of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion in selecting students, just like its name.¡± Immortal Wind mouthed a ¡°Shh¡±, indicating that the heavenly secret must not be revealed. ¡°In other words, even if I get the certification, I might be rejected because I lost the competition?¡± Fang Yuan had such an answer in his heart, so Immortal Wind¡¯s suggestion was very valuable. ¡°Hehehe.¡± Immortal Wind rode on the cloud and left alone. He did not know where to cultivate, or to wait for the next trial to arrive. ¡°Dragon?¡± Fang Yuan sat on Xiao Jin and watched the gryphon legion fighting in the arcane realm, raising their levels along the way. The pet beasts in the arcane realm seemed to be special, they could resurrect no matter how they were killed. It was quite suitable for leveling up. As the time on the map returned to zero, Fang Yuan withdrew the gryphon legion and stood in front of the obelisk again. People kept coming and going around him. They disappeared in front of the obelisk. It was as if no one had noticed Fang Yuan. ¡°Excuse me.¡± Just as Fang Yuan was in a daze, a red-haired young man in gorgeous clothes pushed Fang Yuan away recklessly. The two of them turned their heads and took a look of each other. Fang Yuan saw that there was a pendant around his neck as well. It seemed like he was here to challenge for the arcane realm certification as well. After a short gaze, the red-haired youth disappeared into the light. Knowing that there would be a competition after obtaining the certification, Fang Yuan felt that the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was definitely not ordinary. However, immediately after that, he motivated himself, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, I just need to defeat all my opponents. I¡¯m a man whose goal is to become the world¡¯s number one trainer!¡± With that, Fang Yuan carried his backpack and walked towards the door. He first found a hotel to eat and drink to his satisfaction, and then rested for a night before making a decision. The next day, since he had arrived at the Demon City, the journey was long, and the college entrance examination was getting closer and closer, Fang Yuan decided to take the opportunity to challenge the water arcane realm here. However, he did not have any water-type pet beasts on hand right now. This might also have something to do with his personality. Fang Yuan did not like water, and he subconsciously felt that water-type pet beasts were very limited in their performance. They could only display their strength when there was water. If he wanted to catch a ready-made water-type pet beast, he was too pressed for time. Looking at the money in his bank card, he could not afford to buy a gold-grade pet beast with his current funds. However, he had more than one bottle of evolution potion. If he sold it in the black market, he should be able to sell it for a lot of money. However, he still had to go to the pet shop first to see if there was anything worth buying. If there was really nothing, he could consider betting on a few water-type pet beasts in the underground colosseum first. He just didn¡¯t know how strong the underground colosseum in Demon City was. It should be much stronger than the colosseum in his hometown. Just as his thoughts were running wild, he came to the entrance of a pet shop. ¡ª Heart of the Sea pet shop. ¡°Could it be a pet shop that specializes in selling water-type pets?¡± Fang Yuan was a little puzzled. Normally, pet shops were very domineering in naming, and it was rare to see such a graceful name. This pet shop was not big, and there was a large pile of pet eggs placing at the door. ¡°A blind box of pet eggs, 500,000 for one. Once opened, no returns.¡± There were words written in front of the pet eggs. Being curious, Fang Yuan wanted to touch it, but a fly swatter hit his hand. The fierce-looking shop owner said, ¡°Can you touch a pet egg as you please? What if it recognizes you as its owner and you don¡¯t buy it?¡± Fang Yuan was about to retort, but he heard the man who came down from the second floor say, ¡°Uncle, this man is Fang Yuan, the leader of the Gryphon Legion. He is also my savior.¡± He looked up and saw a boy with a braid. He looked noble. How could he be this man¡¯s savior? However, at this moment, he remembered that he had seen this man on the train because he was too special. He had not seen many boys who had braids. Moreover, he had blond hair and wore a red gown. He did not look like he was from the Yan Prefecture. The young noble ran downstairs quickly and walked to the front of Fang Yuan. He stretched out his hand and said, ¡°Thank you for saving me and my teacher on the train. My name is Peter Brenda.¡± ¡°Peter Brenda?¡± Hearing this name, Fang Yuan thought to himself. He was indeed not from Yan Prefecture. As an important international economic center, it was not surprising that there were foreigners residing in Demon City. However, this was the first time he had seen a foreigner from this parallel world. Fang Yuan was still a little interested. Following that, Fang Yuan also extended his hand and shook his hand. He said, ¡°Hello, I am Fang Yuan from Chuxin City.¡± Chapter 88 - Iced Seahorse Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Fang Yuan, are you buying a pet? Your gryphon legion is already very powerful, stronger than any pet in our shop!¡± Peter seemed to be very happy, because he had been educated by a home tutor for a long time, and he also did not have many friends in school. It was an extremely happy thing to be friend with a powerful trainer like Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan squeezed out a smile. Although he already knew that most probably this would be the case, he was still a little disappointed. ¡°Who said that our shop doesn¡¯t have powerful pets?¡± Seeing that it was Peter¡¯s friend, the owner of the shop was no longer that fierce. Instead, he said, ¡°The person standing in front of you is in fact one of the genius youths from Demon City 20 years ago.¡± Peter covered his mouth and laughed, ¡°Uncle, it¡¯s been 30 seconds that I haven¡¯t heard your story about challenging the water arcane realm.¡± It was of course a sarcasm. ¡°Humph, what do you guys know? The water arcane realm is only on the surface. What I challenged was the hidden water arcane realm. Only those who are determined to get the certification can enter the arcane realm,¡± the uncle said while blowing his beard, he seemed to be dissatisfied with the young man¡¯s disrespectful tone. Fang Yuan was shocked hearing this. ¡°You, you have challenged the Water Arcane Realm Certification?¡± Fang Yuan asked the uncle with his mouth wide open. ¡°Fang Yuan, my uncle loves to brag. For so many years, I¡¯ve never heard of a hidden arcane realm in the water arcane realm.¡± Peter explained with a smile, thinking that Fang Yuan had been fooled by his uncle. Initially the uncle actually didn¡¯t want to say anything, but the moment he saw the pendant on Fang Yuan¡¯s neck, his pupils began to shrink, and then he rushed up and grabbed Fang Yuan¡¯s pendant. ¡°You¡¯ve already passed three certification? Earth, wind, and thunder¡­ I miss those days! Your challenge route is similar to mine!¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Fang Yuan felt a little strange when he heard the uncle say they are similar.. The uncle suddenly laughed and looked Fang Yuan up and down, then he said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Your name is Fang Yuan, right? Let¡¯s have a fight. As long as you can defeat me, I¡¯ll tell you about the certification of the water arcane realm, and give you the pet that has received the certification. Will you accept my challenge?¡± His tone was full of confidence. Peter smiled and said, ¡°Uncle, I didn¡¯t know that there would be such a day for you!¡± As he said that, he raised his fist to cheer for his uncle. ¡­ Unexpectedly, Fang Yuan had summoned two gryphons right in the beginning. The uncle¡¯s pet hippo felt an extremely violent turbulence coming towards it, and was rushed out even before its huge body was able to stand firmly. Amidst this turbulence, there was also the power of lightning. For a moment, the pet hippo was directly blown onto the wall, letting out a loud sound. There were even traces of lightning bouncing on the spot where its chest had been blown, and it fell into a coma. The uncle was shocked and immediately ran towards his pet. Fortunately, it only fainted and was not injured seriously. The attack just now was impressively Xiao Jin¡¯s and Xiao Ying¡¯s combined skill, Storm of Destruction. Now that Xiao Ying had evolved gale, its strength had directly risen to a whole new level. In the blink of an eye, he was defeated. Sense of powerless filled the uncle¡¯s heart and he couldn¡¯t help feel that he was indeed no longer young. The uncle put his pet back into his space and collapsed to the ground. Ding¡­ While Fang Yuan and Peter were drinking milk tea in the pet shop, a customer came in from the door. After a while, there was another doorbell sound and another customer came in. They only drank three mouthfuls of milk tea in all before three customers came in. ¡°They¡¯re here again,¡± Peter said unhappily. Fang Yuan stared at the people at the door and asked, ¡°Who are they?¡± Just as he asked this question, he saw the uncle waving at Fang Yuan and Peter in the backyard of the pet shop, signaling them to go over. Ignoring the customers at the door, Fang Yuan and Peter ran over, ¡°This is the pet!¡± The uncle said happily to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan walked closer and saw that it was actually a seahorse. [ Scientific name: Iced Seahorse ] [ Bloodline: None ] [ Rarity: Gold low-grade ] [ Level: Intermediate level four ] [ Attributes: Beast, water ] [ Positioning: Support/special ] [ Skills: 1. Freezing; 2. Static; 3. Flexible ] [ Personality: Tsundere ] [ likes: ??? ] ¡°Uncle, you are not kidding me?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the small seahorse in front of him. It seemed to be very weak in battle capability. It might not even be as strong as the hippopotamus just now. If it were to challenge the arcane realm, it would be a death sentence. The uncle said seriously, ¡°Fang Yuan, listen to me. The certification of water arcane realm is¡­¡± Just as he was about to speak, the three customers just now also rushed into the backyard. ¡°Johnny, if you still don¡¯t return the money, we will smash your shop. Or you can use the most valuable golden pet beast in your shop as collateral and we will forget about this matter,¡± the person who was leading said. ¡°Uncle, why don¡¯t we give them¡­¡± Peter seemed to have wanted to give them money, but was stopped by the uncle. from their conversation, Fang Yuan managed to figure out the whole story. What had happened was these few persons were local well-known ruffians. They were considered to be relatively good trainers. They came to the shop to play the blind box game, and they kept receiving very weak pets. They thought that the uncle had done something to the pet eggs, and was using the trash pet eggs to fool the customers. They had been pestering the uncle to pay them for the past few days. However, the uncle thought that he had never owe them money, and it was in fact their bad luck. He therefore refused to pay them. The matter had been in a stalemate since then. During this period of time, they had been blocking the entrance of the shop every day, not allowing other customers to enter. Today, they happened to be away when Fang Yuan came and walked into the shop. ¡°Eh? This is the treasure of your shop?¡± One of the local ruffians saw the seahorse and recognized it at a glance. It was a golden pet, but just that it looked very weak. ¡°Hahaha, no wonder we can only buy trash pets from your shop. Even the strongest ones are just so-so.¡± ¡°Well, now I know that you didn¡¯t trick us on purpose. But you still have to return the money to us, and we¡¯ll call it even!¡± The uncle couldn¡¯t bear it any longer and said, ¡°Don¡¯t go too far. I¡¯m going to use my iced seahorse to defeat you! Fang Yuan, do you mind lending me the seahorse?¡± Fang Yuan waved his hand and said, ¡°No, no, I haven¡¯t even decided to buy it yet. You can use it.¡± After saying that, he found a corner in the courtyard and sat down. ¡°Xiao Bing, are you ready?¡± The uncle said. The seahorse didn¡¯t respond to him, but turned its face to the side. ¡°Hey, be serious and fight with me!¡± The uncle yelled at it, then only it reluctantly turned around and faced the three hooligans. Hehehe. The hooligan revealed a sinister smile. ¡°If you lose, you will refund. You said it yourself, right, Uncle?¡± Chapter 89 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Thunder Crystal Mist Ape!¡± ¡°Tiger Fang Silver Snake!¡± ¡°Coiling Dragon Black Pear Civet!¡± The three hooligans summoned their strongest pet. ¡°Uncle, don¡¯t go back on your word! Thunder Crystal Mist Ape, use lightning fur!¡± The leading hooligan took the initiative to attack. A white ape threw a pile of fur at the seahorse. The hair made a sizzling sound in the air. It was electrified hair. Electricity had a special effect on water. The seahorse clearly did not have enough mobility on land. It did not even dodge the skill. After being electrocuted, it fell to the ground. ¡°No!¡± Then, the other two pet beasts also activated their skills and charged at the seahorse, as if they were going to take its life! The uncle shouted in a heart-wrenching manner. ¡°I say, you guys, don¡¯t go too far,¡± Fang Yuan said coldly. If the uncle had used the hippopotamus that was fighting with him just now to fight against the hooligans, he might not have lost so badly. However, this seahorse was obviously an aquatic pet beast. To actually allow it to fight with other pet beasts on land, he did not know if the uncle was out of his mind. Even so, there were very few pet beast duels that directly rushed to kill the opponent¡¯s pet beast. On one hand, if the pet beast died, the master might never have the chance to form a contract with other pet beasts anymore. On the other hand, a battle was still a battle, how could a battle directly become a battle to the death? A python with tiger fang and a completely black steel civet were preparing to charge at the seahorse that was unable to move on the ground, revealing sinister smiles. But at this moment, they suddenly felt the gryphon¡¯s glare. Xiao Jin stood in front of the seahorse, the domineering glare directly made the two pet beasts unable to move. Under this kind of fright, the python actually hugged the civet. Xiao Jin had evolved the stare skill. Now even a platinum intermediate pet beast would be restrained by Xiao Jin¡¯s stare. Moreover, the greater the difference in grade, the higher the fear effect. The hooligans could feel that their pet¡¯s combat power was decreasing. ¨C 15% ,-30% ,-50% ,-80% ,-99% ! ¡°F*ck! What kind of ghost pet is this? My Tiger Fang Silver Snake¡¯s attack power has decreased to 1% , and the attack desire has also decreased to 0%. What about you?¡± ¡°You still have 1% left. My pet is trying to escape!¡± ¡°You two trash!¡± The leader of the hooligans said, ¡°Thunder Crystal Mist Ape, use the thunder fur spell!¡± Xiao Jin glared at the ape in the distance. ¡°Quick, use the thunder fur spell!¡± The hooligan was flustered and wanted to walk up and kick his pet beast. Then, Xiao Jin¡¯s gaze also stared at him¡­ That gaze was cold and domineering, as if announcing that he would die in the next second. It was Fang Yuan¡¯s first time using this skill on a human. He did not know what kind of effect it would have. He was completely uncertain and felt that it should not be effective on humans. ¡°D*mn it, you¡¯re ruthless.¡± The leader of the hooligans suddenly came back to his senses. He kept his pet and hurriedly ran out of the shop. The two hooligans quickly followed him. They no longer had the air of arrogance that they had when they first entered the shop. In the end, the uncle who was sitting on the ground in a daze and the seahorse who was in a coma were left behind. The level of this pet¡­ was really too weak, right? Fang Yuan also recalled the gryphon. For water-type pet beasts, he might choose another one with stronger combat strength. The uncle and Peter saw the speechlessness in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes. The uncle rushed to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, please listen to my explanation. The certification of the water arcane realm is different from other arcane realms.¡± ¡°The other arcane realms exchange for the certification in the form of mission points, right?¡± As if to dispel Fang Yuan¡¯s doubts, the uncle told him everything that he knew, including ¡°Old Man Tu, immortal Feng.¡± Hearing these two names, Fang Yuan confirmed that the uncle in front of him was indeed a man who had been to the arcane realm. ¡°During the certification of the Water Arcane Realm, the competition is not about the fighting strength of the pet beast, but in the form of the sports meet. Only by winning all four events can one obtain the certification of the Water Arcane Realm!¡± ¡°Sports meet¡­ four events?¡± Fang Yuan heard this and was so shocked that his jaw dropped. The uncle handed the seahorse to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°At that time, it was because of the failure of the certification of the water arcane realm that I fell into oblivion. I thought hard for twenty years and finally found a way to crack the water arcane realm!¡± The uncle and Peter looked at Fang Yuan seriously, one on the left and the other on the right. However, the seahorse in front of him did not seem to be interested in Fang Yuan at all, and it even showed a yawn expression. ¡°Can this guy really do it? I can only participate in the certification once,¡± Fang Yuan said, but then he remembered something. The arcane realm of the Iron Castle Military Academy was also a water arcane realm. If he lost here, he could just go to the Iron Castle to challenge again. After all, Fang Yuan¡¯s strength was higher than that of an ordinary trainer, so he decided to trust the uncle once. He raised the seahorse and prepared to perform the master recognition ceremony. However, the seahorse seemed to be very reluctant, and it only let down its guard after being glared at by the uncle. [ Ding! Iced seahorse detected. Grade: Gold intermediate, Level: Intermediate level three ] [ Do you wish to proceed with the 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give out the 100 times increase and obtain gold intermediate level three iced seahorse. ] [ Second, obtain the 100 times increase in quality and obtain a gold pinnacle level three iced seahorse. ] [ Third, obtain the 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold intermediate level 13 iced seahorse. ] The upgrade of a pet beast would increase the pet¡¯s combat ability, including attack, defense, and skill power. However, if it was really like what the uncle had said, and it was a contest of attributes, the effect of the upgrade of its quality was far inferior to the upgrade of its level. He had never had the chance to level up his pet. The gryphon had been in the wind arcane realm for so long, but it was only at level 5. Choose three, and directly level up the iced seahorse to level 13! The iced seahorse also felt the change in itself, and it revealed an expression of disbelief for a short while. Then, it returned to its usual aloof and indifferent appearance. ¡°Come on, I believe that you will definitely be able to realize the dream that I failed to realize back then. Also, Xiao Bing, work hard with your new master! Do you understand?¡± Although it was not a pet that he was satisfied with, Fang Yuan did not have any objections since he did not spend a single cent. However, when he left the pet shop, he seemed to feel a trace of sadness and reluctance in the seahorse¡¯s heart. Fang Yuan summoned it again, but it still had the same cold expression. It was just staring at the big tree and Peter who was waving goodbye at the entrance of the shop. ¡°Goodbye, Xiao Bing. You have to grow up!¡± The uncle seemed to have a deep feeling for it. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to say goodbye to them?¡± Fang Yuan saw Xiao Bing who turned her head away, and a tear seemed to fall from her eyes. ¡°What a tsundere.¡± Fang Yuan smiled, then waved to the uncle and said, ¡°When I become the number one trainer in the world, I will come back to see you guys.¡± Looking at the seahorse in his arms, it still looked disdainful, but it didn¡¯t seem to resist Fang Yuan as much anymore. Chapter 90 - The Sport Meet of Water Arcane Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Welcome to the water arcane realm, young man!¡± It was a topless muscular man wearing floral shorts. His whole body was sun-tanned and only his white teeth were exposed. Fang Yuan nodded and asked, ¡°May I know how I can obtain the water arcane realm certification?¡± The hot-blooded man waved his fist and said, ¡°That¡¯s a great question. Since we¡¯re at the beach, we should enjoy the sea breeze, the beach, and the Sun!¡± A gust of wind vaguely whistled past. Fang Yuan felt a chill down his spine. Was this man too hot-blooded? But then, the muscular man began to introduce himself, ¡°I¡¯m the guardian of the water arcane realm, Shuiwen.¡± With a bang, a banner was put up behind Shuiwen. Then, a few pet crabs were starting the fireworks. Shuiwen pressed the knuckles on his hands and caused the cracking sound. His clenched fists seemed to be on fire. For a moment, Fang Yuan felt that there was something wrong with this person¡¯s brain, and he could not help but take a few steps back. Shuiwen roared, ¡°Such good weather, if we just sleep, it would be a waste! Let¡¯s have a good sports meet!¡± As the uncle had said, the certification of the water arcane realm was completely different from what he had seen before. ¡°The first round! A swimming competition! As a water-type pet, how could it not know how to swim? Our water arcane realm¡¯s representative team is sending out a contestant!¡± A puff of smoke dispersed, and a beautiful mermaid with extremely good figure in a bikini appeared in front of everyone in a seductive manner. ¡°It¡¯s our three-time swimming champion ¡ª Mermaid Lady.¡± Fang Yuan was almost shocked. There was such a pet beast. Wasn¡¯t this a pet beast that seriously violated human ethics? If it was captured by humans, it was hard to imagine what would happen to it. No wonder there were people from the Pet Beast Ethics Association. He picked up his watch and looked at the attributes of Mermaid Lady. [ Scientific name: Shallow-sea mermaid ] [ Bloodline: ??? ] [ Rarity: Gold high-grade ] [ Level: Level five intermediate ] [ Attributes: Fish, water ] [ Positioning: Support/defense ] [ Skills: ??? ] [ Personality: ??? ] [ Preferences: ??? ] Fang Yuan saw rows of question marks on the information, and his heart was full of question marks. Other than the attributes such as grade and level, the rest was unknown. It was very likely that it was a new species that humans had discovered but had not truly captured. The mermaid lady blew a flying kiss at the audience, then approached the seahorse and made a gesture to compare its height. The seahorse was a lot shorter. However, the seahorse didn¡¯t seem to care about this and still looked indifferent. ¡°Young man, if you have other pets, you can also summon them to watch the competition. As long as you don¡¯t participate in the competition, you won¡¯t be expelled from the arcane realm.¡± Unknowingly, a pair of sunglasses appeared on Shuiwen¡¯s face. He even deliberately raised his sunglasses, and said with a smile. ¡°No, thanks¡± Fang Yuan did not know what kind of bad taste he had. In any case, he was not interested at all. He just wanted to win the competition as soon as possible. With a bang, a crab pressed the signal gun, announcing the start of the competition. ¡°The mermaid jumped into the water with extremely graceful movements. Her target is a small island 10 kilometers away. This is a competition of endurance and speed! Miss. Mermaid has already swum 500 meters unknowingly. Let¡¯s turn back and look at the iced seahorse. Eh? It is still on the shore. What is it doing? Is it giving up on the competition?¡± Shuiwen picked up the microphone from somewhere, and started explaining the sports meet passionately. Then, he looked at Fang Yuan, not knowing what Fang Yuan was up to. Fang Yuan smiled and said, ¡°Xiao Bing, if you want to help uncle take revenge, just do this. So what if I let her swim one kilometer ahead.¡± On the television screen, Mermaid Lady had already swum past the one kilometer mark line. ¡°Let¡¯s go, Xiao Bing.¡± Following Fang Yuan¡¯s command, the seahorse also jumped into the sea and began to catch up with the mermaid at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. All the pet beasts were shocked. The seahorse¡¯s swimming speed was even faster than that of a fish. It was simply unimaginable. That was because Fang Yuan had strengthened its level. Pet beasts above level 10 would have a double attribute bonus because very few people had raised their pet beasts to this level. ¡­ The competition had entered its climax. The mermaid and the seahorse were now only 100 meters apart, and they were only 500 meters away from the finish line. With this speed, the seahorse was sure to win. At this moment, the mermaid suddenly spat out a string of bubbles, which surrounded the seahorse. ¡°Miss. Mermaid used a bubble attack to temporarily imprison the opponent. This is allowed by the rules!¡± Shuiwen explained, thinking that Fang Yuan would protest. However, Fang Yuan did not seem to care. Instead, he showed a confident smile. ¡°Xiao Bing, use freeze.¡± Just as the mermaid was about to reach the finish line, she suddenly realized that her entire body could not move. At this moment, the seahorse had already broken through the bubble group! It was heading straight for the finish line. The mermaid revealed an expression of disbelief. She had been struggling hard, trying to break through the shackles of ice. The iced seahorse had actually frozen the water in the distance. This move was really a godly control skill. As long as the opponent¡¯s pet was in the water or there was water around it, it would be frozen. The duration was not very long, only 30 seconds. However, these 30 seconds were enough for the seahorse to surpass the mermaid! ¡°Oh my God, the little seahorse completed its comeback before the finish line! It won against the Mermaid Lady, and the Mermaid Lady lost her fourth consecutive championships,¡± Shuiwen explained enthusiastically, as if the mermaid lady was not his pet. In fact, the mermaid was not Shuiwen¡¯s pet. He was just the guardian of the arcane realm, guarding the rules of the arcane realm. He closed his eyes and summoned the seahorse and the mermaid back to the beach. ¡°Congratulations on winning the first round. This is your reward.¡± Shuiwen walked up to Fang Yuan, took out a crystal clear stone, and put his hand beside Fang Yuan¡¯s ear, saying, ¡°This is [ mermaid¡¯s tear ] , a treasure that the mermaid lady cried out after losing the competition. I haven¡¯t seen it for a long time.¡± Fang Yuan took the mermaid¡¯s tear. [ Ding! Mermaid¡¯s tear detected. Grade: Gold intermediate ] [ Do you wish to receive a 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to receive the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and receive a gold intermediate-grade Mermaid¡¯s tear. ] [ Second, receive a 100 times increase in quality. You will receive a platinum low-grade Mermaid¡¯s tear. After use, your maximum mana limit will increase by 100%, and your mana recovery speed will increase by 100% . ] [ Third, receive a 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold intermediate-grade Mermaid¡¯s tear. Mana will recover by 1,000% after use. Can Overflow. ] So the mermaid¡¯s tear was just a battle potion. In battle, it could recover the mana value of the pet, which meant that the pet could release a few more skills. To the opponent, this might be a treasure to increase mana! After choosing the platinum low-grade Mermaid¡¯s tear, he threw it into his backpack. The second round of the sports meet was about to begin. Chapter 91 - Seahorse’s Strength Translator: ;Nyoi-Bo Studio ; ;Editor: ;Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Congratulations to Fang Yuan for winning the first round.¡± Following that, the pet herd let out a wave of enthusiastic cheers. The mermaid lady then left the competition field with tears in her eyes. The second round was a competition of diving. ¡°As a water-type pet, its control over water is naturally as clear as fire. Apart from swimming, the second event is to test the coordination of the pet at the moment it enters the water!¡± ¡°Next, let¡¯s welcome our second contestant ¡ª the Miao Bu Worm!¡± ¡°Roar!¡± The audience let out earth-shaking shouts. Following that, Fang Yuan saw an earthworm that was two meters long walk in from the entrance. Shuiwen continued to introduce, ¡°As everyone knows, the world of the ocean is dominated by fish-type pet beasts. But when it comes to diving, I¡¯m afraid no one would have thought that the real king is a creature from the ground ¡ª an earthworm-type pet beast. The two-consecutive-year champion, Miao Bu Worm, will accept Fang Yuan¡¯s challenge as the ring master this time. So, Fang Yuan, which pet will you send for the competition?¡± Fang Yuan pointed at the ice sea horse, indicating that he would not change his pet. ¡°Okay, then are you all clear about the rules of diving? The moment you touch the water, the smaller the splash, the better the coordination of the body, or the strongest ability! Are you all ready?¡± The earthworm shrunk its body, looking extremely disgusting. If it wasn¡¯t wearing a pair of sweatpants, Fang Yuan would have thought it was some strange creature. But to be honest, saying the earthworm was the champion of diving, Fang Yuan could only think of one of his father¡¯s favorite activities, which was fishing. And the bait for fishing was the earthworm. It was indeed possible to say that it was the champion of diving. First, the earthworm walked up the 10-meter platform, shook its head, and then curled its body into an OK shape. The referee crab pressed the starting gun, and with a ¡°pa¡± sound, the earthworm immediately shrunk itself into a ball, and it became especially small. When it fell into the water, it was like a small stone falling into the water, and one could hardly see the water splash with the naked eye. ¡°The Miao Bu Worm has activated two special skills at the same time. One of which is to reduce its weight significantly, just like its name, as light as a piece of cloth. During the fall, it used the curl skill to reduce itself to the size of a fist. Such a pet beast is very effective in exploration and detection. In diving, it can be said to be invincible.¡± The three judges, all wearing glasses, looked at each other. Then, they lit up their scoreboards almost at the same time. 10 points, 10 points, 10 points! ¡°Oh my God, the Miao Bu Worm has broken its own record again. It got a full 10 points on the first jump. So, do you still want to challenge the second jump?¡± The earthworm climbed up from the water and shook its head. It obviously meant that it was satisfied and would not jump again. ¡°The opponent has obtained a full score. Contestant Fang Yuan, do you still want to continue the challenge?¡± Shuiwen explained the competition while looking at Fang Yuan. ¡°Why not? Xiao Bing, you go up.¡± Fang Yuan commanded Xiao Bing, and it reluctantly walked up the platform and looked down. ¡°Wait a minute, I want to challenge the 20-meter platform.¡± After Xiao Bing walked up the platform, Fang Yuan said to Shuiwen. ¡°If I choose the 20-meter platform and I get a full score, is it higher than the full score of the 10-meter platform?¡± ¡°Well, I¡¯ll discuss it with the referee.¡± Then, Shuiwen and the three crabs formed a circle and whispered to each other, ¡°Okay, sure.¡± After a short discussion, the referee agreed to Fang Yuan¡¯s request to increase the difficulty. The platform also directly rose to a height of 20 meters. Shuiwen said, ¡°I know that your seahorse has the ability to freeze water, but at this height, if it freezes the water surface, it may be seriously injured or even die if it falls down. If the player dies, it will be directly judged to be 0 points. Don¡¯t think of using such a trick to get away with it.¡± He acted as if he had seen through Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. Fang Yuan said, ¡°How could it be? It¡¯s my only water-type pet beast. How could I let it die here? Not only will it not die, it will also use the most beautiful posture to complete the match,¡± Fang Yuan replied. At this time, Xiao Bing was already prepared to jump down. Fang Yuan directed Xiao Bing with his mind and said, ¡°Xiao Bing, don¡¯t be afraid. The static lag skill requires about 1.5 seconds to accumulate power, so I chose the 20-meter platform for you.¡± Xiao Bing looked at Fang Yuan in confusion, as if asking him why he could calculate the time. He did not answer this question, because Fang Yuan was also betting that the gravitational acceleration in this world was the same as in his previous life. If it was slightly faster, he would at most lose the competition, and the seahorse would not fall to its death or drown in the water. Seeing that Fang Yuan did not explain, Xiao Bing was too lazy to pursue the matter and began to prepare the static lag skill. ¡°Bang!¡± The moment the starting gun fired, Xiao Bing jumped off the diving platform. Seeing that it was like a cannonball rushing to the surface of the water, the audience burst into laughter. Earthworm was sitting on a beach chair with its legs crossed. The moment it touched the surface of the water, the splashing scene that people had imagined did not appear. It was as if Xiao Bing had melted into the surface of the water, let alone splashing water! There was not even a ripple! When the judges saw this scene, all of them raised their 10 points. There was no greater diving performance than this! Even Shuiwen admitted defeat. He asked Fang Yuan, ¡°How did your iced seahorse do all this?¡± Actually, the moment it touched the surface of the water, the seahorse activated its stasis ability. The stasis ability was very useless in actual combat, because it could only maintain its own state of stasis for about a second. Then, in the next second, it would gradually return to its original speed. According to the rules, it was Fang Yuan who won. Shuiwen sent a [ earthworm feces ] to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan initially did not want to accept it, thinking that how could he win a competition and get a pile of feces as a reward. However, Shuiwen told him that [ earthworm feces ] was an important nutrient for earth-type pets, especially plant-type pets. After consuming it, there might be unexpected effects. The moment he came into contact with [ earthworm feces ] , the 100 times increase system was activated. [ Ding! Earthworm feces detected. Grade: Gold low grade ] [ Do you wish to receive a 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a gold low grade earthworm feces. ] [ Second, receive 100 times increase in quality and obtain a gold high grade earthworm feces. ] [ Third, receive 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold low grade earthworm feces. After use, the critical strike times of plant-type pet beasts will increase to 300% . ] Wow, so this thing can increase the critical strike times of pet beasts in battle. It was just that different grades of [ earthworm feces ] would have different duration. Fang Yuan thought about it again. He did not lack the ability to continue fighting. What he wanted was to instantly kill his opponent with a short burst of power. Therefore, he chose the third option, which was to temporarily increase the critical strike times to three times. The only drawback was that only earth-type or plant-type pet beasts could use it. If it was an earth-type and plant-type pet beast, it could double the time. Chapter 92 - The Final Challenge of Water Arcane Realm At this moment, it was the last event of the sports meet, long jump. The opponent of the iced seahorse was the jumping frog. As the name implied, the jumping frog was best at jumping. It was often used to send ropes to the top of the mountain when mining in the deep mountains and forests. It was not good at fighting, but it was the best partner for many people. The long jump of the jumping frog was 12 meters. Based on its height, this was an extremely exaggerated result. The long jump here did not only calculate the length, but the length being divided by the height to calculate the score. The jumping frog was 0.5 meters tall, so its score was 24 points. The length of the seahorse was 80 centimeters. If it wanted to surpass the jumping frog, it needed to jump at least 17 meters. ¡°Uncle is indeed a man who has challenged the certification of the water arcane realm.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. Almost every skill of the iced seahorse was specially prepared for the sports meet, whether it was to deal with mermaids who could use bubbles, or to deal with the champion diving worm. and its last skill, [ flexibility ] , was completely tailor-made for the long jump. After Xiao Bing, the little iced seahorse jumped on the spot twice, its body became like a spring. ¡°Flexibility is the third skill of the iced seahorse. It can make the seahorse¡¯s body soft and elastic.¡± As the seahorse jumped up and down again and again, the height of the seahorse¡¯s jump had reached an exaggerated degree. After it finished accelerating, it jumped towards the finish line. 21 meters! Without a doubt, Xiao Bing defeated the jumping frog and became the champion of the long jump! ¡°You really surprised me, Fang Yuan.¡± Shuiwen walked towards Fang Yuan who originally thought that he would give him a piece of equipment or material dropped from a frog. However, Shuiwen actually gave him an evolution material for seahorses ¡ª [ Seahorse Urchin ] ! ¡°You can give it to your pet beast first,¡± Shuiwen said with bad intentions. ¡°There¡¯s still one final match, and it won¡¯t be so easy.¡± He handed the seahorse urchin to Xiao Bing, but it refused to take it. It seemed that it was completely uninterested in evolution. ¡°Xiao Bing, getting the certification of water arcane realm is Uncle¡¯s dream.¡± Fang Yuan remembered that uncle had told him his name which sounded like the name of a passerby, but he had forgotten about it. He therefore directly called the owner of the pet shop of the heart of the sea ¡°Uncle¡±. The uncle seemed to have a very important position in Xiao Bing¡¯s heart, and he did not know how they met. It was extremely rare for humans and pets to have a close relationship, especially since the uncle did not actually form a soul contract with it. They just lived together. The uncle was old and no longer had the opportunity to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. He no longer had the qualifications to challenge the certification of arcane realm. Perhaps what he had been waiting was someone who could break through and obtain the certification of water arcane realm. Fang Yuan just happened to appear and Xiao Bing happened to be the key to the breakthrough. After hesitating for a long while, Xiao Bing closed her eyes and began to absorb the [ sea horse urchin ] . The biggest difference between using evolution materials and using evolution potions was that there was no side effects. Soon, Xiao Bing completed her evolution. Compared to her previous appearance, she had grown a lot. Now, she was almost one meter long. [ Scientific name: Freezing Seahorse. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Platinum low-grade. ] [ Level: Level 15 (grade five high-tier) ] [ Attributes: Beast, water. ] [ Positioning: Support/special. ] [ Skills: 1. Freezing; 2. Area of effect deceleration; 3. Flexibility; 4. Mimicry (in water)] [ Personality: Tsundere. ] Mimicry was no longer unfamiliar to Fang Yuan. This evolution material seemed to be a little monotonous. It had only evolved the stasis skill into area of effect deceleration. After challenging the water realm, Fang Yuan realized that the pet world was not just a matter of strength. There were also many strong support skills. For example, the mermaid¡¯s deceleration, the earthworm¡¯s detection, the jumping frog¡¯s jumping ability, and so on. Water-type pet beasts might not be as strong as other types of pet beasts in terms of combat strength, but in terms of support, they were irreplaceable. It seemed to be three or four o¡¯clock in the afternoon, and the Sun was no longer as fierce as it was in the afternoon. After a long sports meet, the last event finally came. Shuiwen brought Fang Yuan to a place that looked like an aquarium. The audience seats next to it were still full. In the middle of the arena, there was a huge transparent fish tank that was as big as a lake. ¡°Let it in. We¡¯ll start the last event. As long as you can beat it, the certification of the water arcane realm will be yours.¡± Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the creature in the fish tank. The huge, sharp teeth seemed to have told Fang Yuan its identity ¡ª Shark. [ Scientific name: Deep Sea Clear Shadow Shark. ] [ Bloodline: Grohl. ] [ Rarity: Platinum mid-grade. ] [ Level: Level one high tier ] [ Attributes: Fish, water. ] [ Positioning: Attack/assassin. ] [ Skills: 1. Stab; 2. Bite; 3. Accelerate; 4. Bleed. ] This shark was obviously a water-type pet killer. In the water, aside from the dragon-type pet, it was the most aggressive. It was over two meters long and its teeth were as sharp as steel. ¡°Xiao Bing, can you defeat it?¡± Fang Yuan could not help but look at Xiao Bing, its face was still showing an indifferent expression. He could only try his best, because Fang Yuan did not have any other water type pet. After this battle, Fang Yuan finally understood that he could not deviate in the future. His pet beasts were mostly land type and flying type, and they were not good at fighting in the water. The talents that the Heavenly Secret Pavilion wanted to groom were those who were developed in all aspects. The people of the fire country all worshipped the battle between the fire and metal elements, and their control over the water element was rather weak. It was no wonder that the business of the uncle¡¯s pet shop was not doing well, because there were not many water element pet lovers. Xiao Bing jumped fearlessly into the fish tank. The shark swam back and forth beside Xiao Bing, as if it was sizing up its prey before its eyes. ¡°Are you ready?¡± Shuiwen looked at Fang Yuan with a questioning gaze. Fang Yuan nodded. ¡°Okay then, the competition begins!¡± After Shuiwen announced the official start of the competition, the shark could not wait to start its attack. ¡°Freeze!¡± When the shark instantly turned to bit Xiao Bing¡¯s neck, as if it was an animal instinct, Xiao Bing immediately used the freezing skill to temporarily control the shark, allowing it to escape. ¡°Slow it down.¡± Fang Yuan commanded Xiao Bing. He was still looking for the shark¡¯s weakness, but he knew that before he found its weakness, he must not let the shark bite Xiao Bing. Otherwise, it would definitely be in great danger. The slowdown would cause the movement and attack speed of the pet in the target¡¯s range to decrease by ¡ª 50%. The duration was only 30 seconds. Fang Yuan had to think of a way to defeat the clear shadow shark during this time! Chapter 93 - Breaking the Clear Shadow Shark The clear shadow shark¡¯s attack speed was originally like a cannonball. After it was halved, it could be seen with the naked eye. The shark attacked Xiao Bing repeatedly, but every time it dodged. The shark became very angry, then it noticed that its speed was decreasing. So, it silently prepared its ¡°acceleration¡± skill. The acceleration of the clear shadow shark could increase its speed by two times in the water. Compared to the creatures on the ground, the resistance of the water was exceptionally high. However, this was enough. As Xiao Bing was concentrating on dodging, it had never thought that the shark would have suddenly accelerated. It dodged the frontal attack but was immediately stabbed on the back by the shark¡¯s mouth! ¡°Xiao Bing!¡± After Xiao Bing was stabbed by the shark¡¯s sharp mouth, it was fortunate that it had the flexibility to stretch and retract freely. Otherwise, it would have died here after the bite just now. It swam away quickly, thinking that the deceleration skill had lost its effect. So it began to stare at the shark again, trying to start using deceleration. However, with one using deceleration and the other acceleration, there was almost no impact at all. Xiao Bing was hit by the shark again. This time, it lost its balance and started to spin up and down in the water. ¡°Xiao Bing, quickly use mimicry!¡± Just as the shark was about to bite Xiao Bing, Xiao Bing seemed to have disappeared into a fish tank. ¡°Eh?¡± Shuiwen was a little surprised when he saw this. Generally speaking, mimicry was a skill that could only be used when one was close to an aquatic plant or a rock in the water. This seahorse had actually become one with the water and could not be seen with the naked eye. However, he closed his eyes and revealed a smile. ¡°Unfortunately, sharks do not rely on their vision to catch their prey. The blood on the seahorse¡¯s body just now will be its fatal weakness.¡± Shuiwen looked at Fang Yuan and thought to himself, ¡°This young man is at young age. He used an extremely ordinary, or even a weak pet beast to reach the finals. Given time, he will definitely become a powerful trainer.¡± It was their duty to give the certification to a powerful trainer., and they did not care whether the other party was righteous or evil. The young man in front of them somehow had a sense of righteousness. He did not know how the previous young man who had received the certification was doing now. At that time, he could feel a rebellious aura from his body. He hoped that he would not do anything silly. As expected, the shark saw green and red liquid at the bottom of the water. Although it could hide its body, it could not hide its blood. Its passive skill, bleeding, would worsen the wound of any creature it hurt in the water. It rushed to the spot with its saliva. If nothing went wrong, the seahorse would soon be its meal! Accelerating, the shark¡¯s mouth bit in the air. But it really only bit the air. ¡°Xiao Bing, use your strongest killing move. I don¡¯t know what your strongest move is, but if you can¡¯t defeat it with this move, you might lose. Uncle¡¯s dream will not come true,¡± Fang Yuan had told Xiao Bing just now to squeeze out blood to attract the shark¡¯s attack and took the opportunity to hide behind the shark. Taking advantage of the short gap between the shark¡¯s full attack, Xiao Bing used freeze to capture the shark. It took less than a second. With a determined look, it curled his body into a ball and rushed toward the shark! The shark also turned around its head at this time. It broke free from the freeze and was ready to open its bloody mouth to welcome the attack of the seahorse. Xiao Bing, who had gone all out, had now shrunk into a ball of the size of a ping-pong ball and crashed into the shark¡¯s eyes. Although its body was not hard, after it had shrunk into a ball, its density was already comparable to steel. The shark slowly fell to the ground in a daze. Then, it flipped its belly and floated on the surface of the water. Shuiwen had an incredulous expression on his face. Then, he announced, ¡°Fang Yuan has obtained the final victory!¡± Xiao Bing¡¯s body had been dyed red and green by the blood. It could not hold on any longer and fell to the ground. Fang Yuan quickly rushed to the venue but he did not know how to swim. He did not know how to carry the seahorse out of the venue. At this time, a crab dressed in a nurse¡¯s uniform swaggered into the fish tank. Then, it took out a huge syringe and injected some kind of liquid into Xiao Bing¡¯s body which then twitched twice. Using his ability, Shuiwen turned the seahorse into a ray of light and sent it to Fang Yuan. ¡°Clap, clap, clap.¡± Thunderous applause sounded at the competition venue. This was undoubtedly an extremely exciting competition for them. Shuwen walked towards Fang Yuan and handed him a blue certificate. Obviously, this was Fang Yuan¡¯s goal for this trip. ¡°Congratulations, what an amazing match. You showed me the possibility of winning without using strength.¡± Shuiwen handed the certificate to Fang Yuan and clapped. The time on the map was close to zero. It seemed that the sports meet had been timed well. While Shuiwen waved goodbye with his pet, Fang Yuan returned to the Obelisk of the water arcane realm. The blue light had faded, and Fang Yuan no longer could visit this arcane realm for the time being. ¡­ The next day, Fang Yuan took Xiao Bing to the Heart of the Sea pet shop, wanting to tell the uncle the good news. However, the pet shop had posted a transfer sign. When the manager of the milk tea shop saw Fang Yuan lingering at the door of the Heart of the Sea, she walked over and handed Fang Yuan a letter. It turned out that after the uncle lost to the hooligans yesterday, he felt that he was not strong enough. As he did not get into the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, he began to give up on himself. It was Fang Yuan¡¯s battle yesterday that had encouraged him, so he put on his backpack, and started his journey as a trainer again. ¡°This is going to be troublesome.¡± Fang Yuan looked at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing¡¯s originally expressionless face seemed to be filled with regret. ¡°Isn¡¯t this Xiao Bing?¡± The owner of the milk tea shop recognized Xiao Bing at a glance. It seemed that he was very familiar with Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing turned her face to the side, indicating that she did not want to talk to her. ¡°Hahaha, Xiao Bing and her brothers and sisters were left at the entrance of Johnny¡¯s shop. It seems that because her father is very weak, all the babies that she gave birth to have been thrown away. Johnny valued them very much. He raised them up and then found new owners for them. Only this Xiao Bing seems to have a bad temper, so he did not manage to find anyone who was willing to adopt her,¡± the owner of the milk tea shop said with a smile. Then she took out a milkshake and placed it in front of Xiao Bing. Like a puppy, Xiao Bing starting licking the milkshake. Fang Yuan was dumbfounded. So that was her hidden liking. But uncle was really a good person. It also happened that pets were abandoned from time to time. For humans, as long as they didn¡¯t form a soul imprint, there wouldn¡¯t be any negative effects. However, for pets, without their masters, it was difficult for them to survive in this world. ¡°Alright, I have to go back to work. I¡¯m also very happy to see that Xiao Bing has found an important companion. I believe Johnny must have valued this then only entrusted it to you.¡± Xiao Bing finished the milkshake and licked her lips. Fang Yuan patted Xiao Bing¡¯s head and smiled. ¡°You¡¯ll see Uncle again. You have to be strong enough then.¡± Although it turned its head away and pretended to be proud, Fang Yuan heard a ¡°Thank you¡± in his heart. Such a proud pet beast probably really did not know that telepathy would betray her. Chapter 94 - Farming Equipment ¡°As for the trainer¡¯s equipment, a beginner trainer does not need any specific equipment. However, as the battle between pet beasts becomes more and more intense, the trainer must strengthen his mentality to control more pet beasts at the same time, and strengthen his endurance to last longer in battle¡­¡± As Fang Yuan was walking, he was reading the ¡°Battle Manual¡±. Although there was no exam in Heavenly Secret Pavilion, to challenge the limits of the trainer, he still had to learn the basic theory. His current target was the trainer equipment shop. There wasn¡¯t such a large shop in Chuxin Town. Demon City, as an important port city in the world economy, the size of the shop and the type of goods were second to none. Since he was already here, Fang Yuan decided to take a look. Personally, Fang Yuan wanted halo related equipment more. In battle, this kind of equipment could affect the pet¡¯s combat strength. High-level trainers could still use skills, which could only be learned in college. Speaking of equipment, Fang Yuan remembered that in the past, when he challenged the arcane realm, he could get spirit stones as a reward. The last time he challenged the water arcane realm, other than materials and two consumables, he didn¡¯t get any priceless spirit stones. He also didn¡¯t know where he could get new spirit stones. The next challenge was undoubtedly the grass arcane realm. He only had a supporting bee queen for the grass-type beast, which was given to him by his mother. This time, when he challenged the grass arcane realm, he had to be fully prepared. It was best if he could find someone who had already challenged it to understand the specific situation. For example, the appearance of the uncle was a great help to him. Otherwise, undoubtedly he would be just day dreaming if he wanted to pass the water arcane realm trial in one go. Just as Fang Yuan¡¯s imagination was running wild, he had already walked to the largest trainer equipment shop in Demon City. Many people in the equipment shop were also choosing the equipment that suited them.. ¡°This price is too ridiculous.¡± Fang Yuan looked at the price in disbelief. This silver-grade trainer glove, with two points of spiritual power, would actually cost nearly 50 million. After going round for a while, he did not think he needed to equip himself with too many equipment at the moment. He wanted to be more refined, not more. He had his eyes set on a tool called the power ring. ¡°Power ring, gold-high-grade, trainer¡¯s equipment. During battle, it increases all pets¡¯ attack power by 5% . If the trainer uses an offensive skill, this value will be increased to 10%.¡± Fang Yuan wandered around the shop, and found that the price of the equipment here was ridiculously expensive. The price was as high as 200 million. If he had known it earlier, he would have accepted the invitation from the Noble Academy. At least he would have been given a complete set of equipment. The set would be priced sky high here. However, the equipment in the shop stopped at gold-high-grade. At least this was the case for the shops in Demon City. The higher grade equipment would have been put up for auction. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan suddenly had an idea. Could he use the 100 times increase system to buy some low-grade equipment and strengthen them for sales to others? The average price of silver-grade equipment was around 50 million, and gold-low-grade was almost 100 million. As long as he bought and sold it, he would be able to make a large sum of money. Then, the power ring would be in his hands very soon. ¡°Shop Assistant, May I ask what is the cheapest silver equipment you have here?¡± As a man of action, Fang Yuan thought of it and immediately executed it. The shop assistant brought Fang Yuan to the entrance of the store. He introduced to Fang Yuan, ¡°These are all silver-low trainer equipment. Bronze equipment has no attributes. Basically, it only makes the trainer look more formal and very few bronze equipment have attributes. As for silver equipment, the attributes of low-grade are very little. For example, this [ white ape¡¯s hand ] , a low-silver glove, only increases strength by one point to ape-type pets. There are very few trainers of ape-type pets, so this is especially cheap. It only costs five million. Do you want to buy?¡± ¡°Sure.¡± Fang Yuan still had about 20 million in his bank account. If it was only five million, he could buy four of them. As for the buyers, he was not worried. There was a trading area in Demon City. If he set up a stall there, there would definitely be customers. In a short while, Fang Yuan bought four low-grade trainers¡¯ equipment. Following the four Ding notifications, the equipment in his hands had all been strengthened to the level of silver high-grade. As the grade was too low, it could not break through to gold. Fang Yuan did not care as it was just a test product. ¡°Don¡¯t miss the opportunity, silver high-grade equipment dropped from the water arcane realm is sold at a cheap price.¡± Fang Yuan shouted like a peddler. He was now already in the trading area. ¡°Hey, young man. Can I take a look at your goods?¡± A trainer walked over and started looking at the goods in front of the stall. ¡°Tsk, isn¡¯t this an ordinary [ white ape hand ] ? Selling it for 50 million?¡± His companion showed a disdainful expression. ¡°This kid looks like a swindler. I don¡¯t know where he has picked up this piece of scrap metal to sell. Let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Eh.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t care at first, but when he heard the other party call him a swindler, he was unhappy. He said, ¡°Don¡¯t slander me. Although this is [ white ape hand ] , it definitely isn¡¯t an ordinary [ white ape hand ] . Your friend is an ape-type pet trainer. He can tell the authenticity with a touch. If it¡¯s genuine, you have to apologize to me.¡± ¡°You little brat,¡± he was also excited. This was clearly the most ordinary white ape¡¯s hand and he actually wanted to sell it for 50 million. ¡°What do you mean by genuine? Isn¡¯t this just an ordinary white ape¡¯s hand? If my friend thinks it is suitable, I will help him pay an additional 10 million!¡± Fang Yuan looked at the trainer who had first inquired about the price and handed the white ape¡¯s hand to him. ¡°White Ape¡¯s hand, silver-low-grade.¡± He started to read the attributes of the equipment. ¡°I have told you that he was a liar.¡± His companion interjected, looking very proud. ¡°You liar, come and fight with me. If you lose, get out of the trading area.¡± However, his expression quickly became serious. He almost shouted, ¡°Increase ape-type pet¡¯s strength by 100 points! ! !¡± Although it could only increase ape-type pet¡¯s strength, increasing 100 points of strength was an extremely exaggerated number. It was not exaggerating to say that it was cheating. He could not believe his eyes. He put it on his hand and summoned his pet: An Ape covered in frost. He carefully looked at the ape¡¯s attributes. Indeed, the strength points on the interface had increased from 200 to 300! ! ! ! This was equivalent to increasing the attributes by 10 levels. ¡°Is this 50 million? I¡¯ll take it.¡± He did not even want to take off the gloves. He immediately took out his phone and wanted to pay. As he was too loud just now, it attracted a lot of people to come and watch. They heard that his strength had increased by 100 points. Many people who were not ape-type pet trainers also started to fight for the equipment. ¡°I offer 60 million, give it to me!¡± ¡°I offer 70 million.¡± ¡°100 million, I want It!¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Everyone, don¡¯t be anxious. I still have three equipment here. All are good equipment, first come first serve.¡± Then, he looked at the customer who had challenged him with a provocative look, but did not ask for his 10 million. He was left alone in the wind. Chapter 95 - Stolen Pet Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After reselling the equipment three times, Fang Yuan stopped after collecting enough money to buy the golden ring. It was not because he did not want to make money, but time was limited. He could not waste his time preparing for the entrance exam of Heavenly Secret Pavilion on business. When Fang Yuan entered the trainer¡¯s equipment shop again, the shop assistant looked at Fang Yuan with great suspicion and brought him to the strength ring. Fang Yuan did not bargain and directly paid the full amount by swiping his card, this made the shop assistant¡¯s attitude a total change. ¡°It¡¯s my honor to be able to serve you.¡± He handed the strength ring to Fang Yuan respectfully. The moment he touched the ring, a series of data appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s consciousness. Equipment: Strength ring Grade: Gold-high-grade Description: Trainer¡¯s equipment. When a trainer is equipped with this ring, the attack power of all pets on the battlefield will increase by 5% Special attributes: If the wearer of the equipment learns the basic offensive skill, the attack power will increase by 10% instead of 5% . The attributes were exactly the same as the description in the shop owner¡¯s introduction. Next, Fang Yuan put the ring on his finger. following a clear sound of the system notification, the top grade equipment that Fang Yuan had obtained appeared! [ Ding! Strength ring detected. Grade: Gold-high-grade. Attribute level: Gold-low-grade ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways to increase your strength. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a gold-high-grade strength ring. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and obtain a platinum-low-grade tactical ring. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect and obtain a gold-low-grade strength ring. The percentage of your attack power will increase to 15%. ] Yi? Fang Yuan felt a little regret in his heart that it had only increased from 5% to 15%. He had thought that it would increase to 500%, but that was too exaggerated. It was like strengthening all his pet beasts by five times. It seemed that there was a certain difference between a fixed number of increase and a percentage of increase. For example, a gold-low-grade could directly reach gold-high-grade after the 100 times increase while a gold-high-grade could only reach platinum-low-grade. A 100 times increase of platinum-low-grade could only reach the level of a platinum-intermediate grade. As the grade increased, the enhancement given by the increase system would become less and less obvious. Nevertheless, when the grade was higher, a small difference in the grade would have a difference in combat power which was like between heaven and earth. Fang Yuan calmed down and thought that a 5% to 15% enhancement was very high, but he was more curious about the function of the tactical ring. So he chose the tactical ring. The others did not notice anything unusual, but Fang Yuan clearly felt that the ring in his hand had become heavier. Equipment: Tactical Ring Grade: Platinum Low-grade Description: Trainer¡¯s equipment. When a trainer is equipped with the ring, the basic attributes (including attack, defense, speed, and so on) of all pets on the battlefield will be increased by 10% Special attributes: when the wearer learns the basic strengthening skill, the attributes will be increased by 20% instead of 10% . Fang Yuan suddenly felt that this ring was a little useless. To him, the most important thing was the attack attributes. It was better to choose 15% attack instead. However, on second thought, this was not bad for his defensive pet. The gryphon legion was now really the steel gryphon legion. The overall defense strength had increased by a level. It was too ostentatious to wear the ring all the time, so Fang Yuan put the tactical ring into his backpack and would only equip it before battle. At night, Fang Yuan was sitting in the hotel room and he heard a hurried knock on the door, which was very abrupt in the night. ¡°No, you can look elsewhere.¡± A customer said in a low and impatient voice. It reached Fang Yuan¡¯s ears from outside the door. The person who knocked on the door did not seem to have any intention to stop. He continued knocking on the door of another room. This time, there was an angry roar ¡ª ¡°Get lost!¡± Fang Yuan was very curious, so he opened the door to take a look. He saw a girl with braided hair knocking on the door room by room. When she saw Fang Yuan open the door, she quickly ran over. In Fang Yuan¡¯s memory, there were many people who provided special service in the hotel. Could this girl in front of him be one of those? Just as Fang Yuan was thinking about how to reject her, the girl was opened her mount to speak first, ¡°Hello, Sir, is there a cat in your room? It¡¯s my best friend. I saw it running toward this hotel, but I couldn¡¯t sense it.¡± Cat? Sense? Fang Yuan asked, ¡°Is the cat you¡¯re talking about your pet beast? As the owner, how could you not sense its location?¡± As if she felt that finally there was someone who was willing to pay attention to her, the girl immediately cried. It seemed that her heart was filled with grievance, and she cried until she was out of breath. Many people in the hotel rooms made noise as obviously the soundproofing of this hotel was not very good. Fang Yuan then pulled the girl into his room. At that instant, he noticed that there seemed to be someone looking at him with strange expression. However, he did not pay too much attention to it and slammed the door shut. When the girl finally calmed down, he told Fang Yuan what had happened. ¡°My pet is the fiery charm cat. It¡¯s a silver-intermediate-grade cat-type pet.¡± The girl took out a photo of her holding the kitten and said, ¡°It¡¯s very cute, isn¡¯t it?¡± Fang Yuan thought, ¡°What¡¯s the use of you holding the photo? Most of these pets look the same. In the event I bump into a cat that looks exactly the same, should I snatch it or not?¡± Hearing that the cat was not in Fang Yuan¡¯s room, she was feeling depressed again. With a cold look on her face, she walked toward the door. When the door opened, Fang Yuan said, ¡°Although your cat is not with me, I can help you find it.¡± He did not know why he would say such a thing. Perhaps it was because he had recently discovered that the relationship between pets and humans was not as simple as master and servant. There was still feelings, and he could not bear to see a girl running around alone in the middle of the night. ¡°Huozi ran away from my hand in the afternoon. It seemed that it saw a sparrow and wanted to catch it. It broke free from my hand and I wanted to call it back. I therefore ran after it all the way until it ran into this hotel. I tried to summon it back but I couldn¡¯t. It seemed that something had cut off our connection.¡± As she said that, her eyes was red again. Her thin lips were tightly pursed, as if she was trying not to cry. Sigh, Fang Yuan thought to himself, what an irresponsible master. When it was hunting for the bird, she should have recalled it back into the space of the contract gem. What if it got into a fight with other pet beasts and did not care about the safety of others? Pet beasts somehow were still wild in nature, and only the master could restrain it. But since Fang Yuan had agreed to help her, he had to start thinking of a way. Knocking on the room door one by one was definitely an irrational behavior. Searching from the second floor to the sixth, this girl was really brave. Chapter 96 - Poachers ¡°Are you sure it didn¡¯t leave this hotel?¡± Fang Yuan asked seriously. Who knew if it had gone somewhere else. ¡°Impossible. I signed a soul contract with it. Unless it¡¯s locked up in a cage that can cut off the spiritual connection. Otherwise I can sense it at any time,¡± the girl said affirmatively. When Fang Yuan heard about ¡°cutting off the spiritual connection,¡± he was startled. There were indeed such criminals who benefited from stealing and snatching pet beasts from others. They ere known as poachers After a pet beast signed a soul contract with its owner, if its owner summoned it, it would definitely be summoned to the owner¡¯s side. This was the rule. The poachers seemed to have their own set of skills to erase the soul contract of a pet beast that had been signed. This would cause the owner perpetually losing the right to become a trainer because the soul contract had become invalid. It was even worse for the pet beast. It would either be sold as a second-hand pet beast to the pet shop, or it would be become a hired thug in the underground beast colosseum. The worst was that some people who liked to eat pet beasts would buy them as food. It was still fine if it was a wild pet beast, but stealing and snatching pet beasts from others was a serious crime in the Fire Country. Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes rolled for a while and he was thinking. Since the spiritual connection had been cut off, he could only use physics to solve it. He then summoned Shadow Wolf from the space. When it appeared, it seemed to be very happy as it had not appeared in the real world for a long time. It rubbed and licked Fang Yuan and if it was not because of the wisps of black air that were emitted from its body, it actually looked quite cute. However, the black air had made it feel like a dead person coming from hell. After all, it was a platinum pet beast. It was still very terrifying to most people. ¡°Do you have any item with the breath of your pet beast with you?¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself that he had never tried Shadow Wolf to look for people through breath, so he did not know if it was as sensitive as a dog¡¯s nose. The girl immediately took out a square scarf and told Fang Yuan that it was usually wrapped around the cat¡¯s neck, but it had run away today. ¡°Okay, Xiao Ying, you try it out.¡± Fang Yuan signaled Shadow Wolf to sniff the square scarf. Shadow Wolf looked at Fang Yuan with a resentful look, as if it was saying, ¡°You have not let me out for such a long time, and now it¡¯s not for battle, you actually used me like a dog.¡± However, the owner¡¯s instruction could not be disobeyed. Speaking of which, Shadow Wolf was also his first pet. During this period of time, he had been challenging the arcane realm, causing it not to have chance to appear. In the future, it would be better to cultivate a relationship with it more. The shadow wolf seemed to have got hold of the cat¡¯s aura very fast, it then ran quickly. Fang Yuan and the girl followed closely behind. Someone heard the noise coming from the corridor and opened the door. When he saw the big gray wolf that was emitting the aura of death running past his eyes, he was scared off that he sat on the ground. Then, he saw Fang Yuan and the little girl running behind him. The guest did not even have the courage to pick up the phone to report to the front desk. His hands were shaking throughout. They stopped at the door of Room 701. Shadow Wolf made an attack posture toward the door but was stopped by Fang Yuan. ¡°Shh.¡± Fang Yuan made a silent gesture to the shadow wolf. He then walked to the door, knocked, and said, ¡°Hello, is anyone there?¡± Not long after, an impatient voice came from the room, ¡°Who is it? It¡¯s in the middle of the night!¡± Hearing that it was a man¡¯s voice, Fang Yuan continued, ¡°Sir, I¡¯m sorry. I found a wallet at the door of your room. I don¡¯t know if you guys lost it.¡± Actually, this excuse was pretty lame. Fang Yuan regretted saying it out loud. What if the others didn¡¯t bring their wallets out at all or they could just checked it out. However, just as Fang Yuan was thinking about it, the door was cracked open. ¡°It¡¯s my wallet. Give it to me.¡± As he said that, he reached out a hand and gestured for Fang Yuan to put it in his hand. ¡°Xiao Ying.¡± Fang Yuan had established a spiritual connection with the shadow wolf. He could feel that the moment the door was opened, the cat¡¯s aura was especially strong. It was most likely the person in front of him was the culprit. They were doing illegal business, so they probably did not dare to stir up trouble. It was precisely because of this that Fang Yuan immediately ordered the shadow wolf to break open the door and pounce on the person. ¡°Huozi!¡± After breaking open the door, the girl immediately saw the shivering fire charm cat that was locked in the cage. She rushed over but found that there was an electric current on the cage. She was electrocuted away from the cage. ¡°You, let go of that cat,¡± Fang Yuan ordered. At this moment, the shadow wolf was pressing on the man. The man¡¯s muscles were bulging. He was only wearing a pair of shorts. He had a fierce expression on his face, and he did not look like a good person. Just as he was being pushed down, he summoned his pet beast, a pet beast in the shape of an eagle. As Fang Yuan had the wind realm certification, he immediately obtained the detailed information of this pet beast. [ Scientific name: Harpy. ] [ Bloodline: Electra. ] [ Quality: Platinum low-grade. ] [ Level: Level 5 intermediate. ] [ Attributes: Beast, bird, wind. ] [ Positioning: Attack/special. ] [ Skills: 1. Sharp claws; 2. Pounce; 3. Flying thrust; 4. Swift wings. ] The harpy opened its wings and used its sharp claws to pounce at the shadow wolf. Shadow Wolf had no choice but to let go of the man and enter a battle state with it. ¡°Little B*stard, how dare you ruin Master Du Lei¡¯s good plan. I will teach you a lesson today!¡± The man got up and said arrogantly. The saliva of Shadow Wolf had dripped on his body just now, making him feel extremely disgusted. ¡°As a trainer, you actually stole someone else¡¯s pet. You are really disgusting.¡± Fang Yuan pointed at the window, meaning that he did not want to fight in the hotel, and he wanted to fight in the open space outside. After saying that, Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin which stopped by the window, and jumped up on it. This action was extremely awesome. The little girl could not help but blush when she saw it. ¡°Hmph, I¡¯ll come.¡± The man who called himself Du Lei also knew that it was not appropriate to cause trouble in the hotel. If they fought outside, and if they could not win, they could take the opportunity to escape. If they fell into the hands of the pet security management committee, he might have to face up to 30 years of imprisonment. Fang Yuan flew up on the gryphon and landed on the open space not far away from the hotel. Du Lei grabbed the claws of the harpy with one hand. His wrist strength was amazing, and he also jumped onto the open space. ¡°Steel gryphon, not bad! It looks like a platinum pet beast. It can be sold at a pretty good price on the black market.¡± He stuck out his tongue and made an expression of licking its body, which made Fang Yuan feel extremely uncomfortable. ¡°Then you have to beat me first,¡± Fang Yuan said coldly. At this moment, the shadow wolf had descended from the sky and blocked in front of Fang Yuan. Being ambushed by the harpy just now had ignited its anger. It glared at the Harpy with its angry eyes. The hotel guests were originally very sleepy. When they heard the noise in the corridor, they had initially wanted to vent out anger. However, when they saw the battle between the pet beasts, they suddenly lost their sleepiness and opened the windows to watch. Chapter 97 - Trainer’s Skill Since it was a duel, Fang Yuan immediately ordered Xiao Jin to use [ stare ] on the opponent. The harpy was very uncomfortable from being stared at. As it was one grade lower, the attack effect was reduced by about 30% . The shadow wolf immediately attacked at this instant. Du Lei was shocked, thinking that this person was actually a dual pet trainer. However, he did not show any signs of weakness, because he was one, too! He raised his hand, and a blue panther appeared in front of him. The information about the panther was immediately sent to Fang Yuan¡¯s mind through the water arcane realm certifiiation: [ Scientific name: Water Blue Panther. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Platinum intermediate. ] [ Level: Grade-five-high. ] [ Attributes: Beast, water. ] [ Positioning: Special/support. ] [ Skills: 1. Leopard Claw; 2. Flash; 3. Sound wave; 4. Phantom. ] Fang Yuan had just come out of the water arcane realm and now he encountered a water-type pet beast. Other skills were understandable, but this was the first time he had seen the phantom skill. Since water-type pet beasts generally had attacks that were out of the range of normal attacks, he therefore had to be careful. The shadow wolf knew that its opponent was the leopard in front of him. When felines and canines met, they were especially jealous of each other. The shadow wolf roared, trying to scare the other party away. However, the two pet beasts were of the same grade, so the spirit leopard did not put the shadow wolf in its eyes at all. They then began to fight. Their battle was more like a battle between animals. They pounced on the other party finding opportunity to bite the other party¡¯s throat. With their bite strength, whoever bit the other party first would basically declare victory. On the other side of the battlefield, the battle between the steel gryphon and the harpy began. The harpy¡¯s attack power had indeed decreased by a lot, but her speed was shockingly above the gryphon. At each attack, she would appear in another position, and Xiao Jin¡¯s sharp claw attack missed again and again. Du Lei, who was at the side, had a confident look on his face. As a poacher, Du Lei had been chased by pet trainers many times. He simply did not take this seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth in front of him seriously. Among the tourists, an experienced old man said, ¡°Is this Du Lei, who is known as the Eagle Leopard Thief? He is a high-level trainer who uses eagle man and leopard as pets. I heard that he tried to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion few years ago. After failing the exam, he gave up and became a professional poacher. He sold all the stolen pets and used them to strengthen his pets. It seems that his goal is to take revenge on the people who defeated him.¡± So that was the case. As the voice was very loud, Fang Yuan heard it clearly. The highest grade pet beast that Fang Yuan currently had was freezing seahorse that had been strengthened by 100 times. And the two in front of him, one was grade-five-high and the other grade-five-intermediate. It was clear that they had been trained well and improved. Not only were these pet beasts with high attributes, but more importantly, they had rich combat experience. Xiao Jin and Xiao Ying¡¯s grades were on par with the other parties. However, their levels were low. Xiao Jin was good at team battles, commanding the gryphon legion. Xiao Ying was an assassin, and she was good at sneak attacks. When fighting with these two warriors-like pet beasts, they did not gain any advantage at all. In fact, they were even at a disadvantage. ¡°You¡¯re finished,¡± Du Lei said. He raised his gloves. ¡°Do you know the difference between a low-level trainer and a high-level trainer?¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Fang Yuan was curious. When he fought with the pets in the arcane realm, his attributes were at a disadvantage. In his opinion, the most important difference was the trainer¡¯s commanding ability. However, after buying the strength ring, he found that the trainer¡¯s equipment was also very important. Du Lei¡¯s gloves in front of him were quite suspicious. However, in terms of equipment, his 100 times enhanced system was the real cheat. He suddenly remembered his tactical ring. It was a pity that he did not bring his backpack, otherwise, his equipment should be able to achieve a reversal in attributes. Du Lei began to close his eyes, while the harpy and water blue panther¡¯s bodies were emitting a red light. Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes widened. This was¡­ This was the trainer¡¯s skill! It required the trainer to raise his spiritual power and then release it in a pet battle. However, this was Fang Yuan¡¯s first time fighting a trainer who had skill. He did not know the secret behind this. ¡°Berserk skill,¡± Du Lei muttered to himself. Then, the eyes of the harpy and the rest turned red. The shadow wolf and the steel gryphon suddenly felt that their opponent¡¯s attack speed and power had greatly increased. It was still fine for the steel gryphon was as its own defense power was high. Even if it was scratched a few more times by the opponent, it was not seriously damage. However, the shadow wolf was in trouble. The speed of feline was already very fast. When the speed was increased further, it would not be able to keep up with the speed of the leopard, and was directly bitten at the back of its neck. Seeing this, Fang Yuan could not help but feel troubled. ¡°Xiao Jin, quickly go and save Xiao Ying,¡± Fang Yuan shouted. The gryphon received the order and immediately prepared to pounce on the spirit leopard. However, the harpy flew over and scratched a bloody mark on Xiao Jin¡¯s face. ¡°Your two pet beasts are very good, but from tomorrow onwards, they will be my pet beasts.¡± Du Lei seemed to be in a state of madness because he had used the berserk skill. He covered his face with one hand and said ferociously. ¡°Hu¡­¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes. It seemed that he could not defeat Du Lei directly. There was still a gap in their strength. He did not know any skills, and his equipment was far behind his opponent¡¯s. Fang Yuan quietly made up his mind. After tonight, he must speed up the training of his pet beasts to improve his strength. He could not let such a powerless scene happen again. Seeing Fang Yuan close his eyes, Du Lei laughed even more wildly because he thought he had won. He immediately ordered, ¡°Attack. Knock out your respective opponents. Don¡¯t let go. This way, he won¡¯t be able to recall his pet beasts.¡± However, in the next second, he couldn¡¯t smile anymore. A huge armored bear patted its chest. It appeared in front of him. His pupils began to shrink as he muttered to himself, ¡°Three pet trainers?¡± Ordinary trainers could only control one pet. Only with the increase of their own spiritual power could they control more pet beasts in battle. It was already extremely rare to have two pet trainers, but Fang Yuan in front of him controlled three pet beasts at the same time. No, he must have forced himself. Du Lei said to himself. The armored bear had already received Fang Yuan¡¯s order and pounced on the leopard at full speed. Although his slap missed, it chased away the spirit leopard that was biting the shadow wolf. ¡°Xiao Ying, you have worked hard.¡± Fang Yuan summoned the shadow wolf back into his space and then summoned Pick. ¡°Du Lei, right? I have to admit that you are the strongest trainer I have met so far.¡± Pick, who was in front of Fang Yuan, had already started to gather blue lightning. ¡°However, you still have to lose. You are just a battle machine.¡± Before he could finish his sentence, Pick¡¯s light had already made everyone present unable to open their eyes. ¡°Charge, blue lightning!¡± Chapter 98 - I Am Stronger Than You When the lightning charging reached its limit, Pick flew out like a missile. It swiftly passed through the body of the spirit leopard and the harpy, and then¡­ It stood on the side of the field, panting. [ spherical lightning ] would cause a huge amount of lightning damage to all pets that came into contact with it, and it would also have a paralyzing effect. Although this effect was not as good as seahorse¡¯s area of effect deceleration in the water, it was more than enough to offset the additional effect of the berserk skill. The harpy was already feeling uneasy from being stared at, and its attack power was greatly reduced. Now that it had been electrocuted to the point of numbness, it was considered good enough that it could still barely fly. It was even more impossible for it to fight back. Xiao Jin saw this scene and thought of the harpy¡¯s random scratching on its body just now. It could not help but feel angry. It then pounced over and began to peck at its body. The harpy¡¯s current claw attacks were now not able to break Xiao Jin¡¯s defense. No matter how it scratched, the harpy could not stop Xiao Jin¡¯s attack. The spirit leopard was trembling as he looked at the four meter tall giant bear in front of him. This bear seemed to be threatening him as it pressed its joints until they made the racking sounds. Using a trainer¡¯s skill seemed to have an effect on one¡¯s body. After Du Lei had released his berserk skill, his emotions were quite chaotic. Now that he had released his berserk skill, he had calmed down instead. He glared at Fang Yuan fiercely, then revealed a sinister smile and said, ¡°You¡¯re also very powerful. I recognize that thing on your neck. You also want to go to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, right? I¡¯ll give you some information and you let me go. How about that?¡± Fang Yuan had just heard about Du Lei¡¯s past from a passerby and said to him, ¡°In your dreams. You¡¯re just a loser. Go to prison and reflect on yourself.¡± ¡°Hahaha.¡± Du Lei took advantage of the moment when Fang Yuan¡¯s attention was distracted to summon the spirit leopard back. Then, he used the method of overdrawing his mental strength to summon another pet beast. After this pet beast appeared, it immediately released a large amount of smoke that made people unable to open their eyes and kept coughing. Fang Yuan was no exception, but he immediately sensed that Du Lei was going to escape. He shouted at Xiao Jin, ¡°Quickly use the strong wind to blow away the smoke.¡± Xiao Jin immediately flapped its wings. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the harpy took to the air at an extremely fast speed, grabbing Du Lei and flying off into the distance at an extremely fast speed. ¡°Don¡¯t run away!¡± Fang Yuan immediately summoned little Xiao Ying. Xiao Jin¡¯s stamina was definitely running out, and it was impossible for him to immediately summon the gryphon legion. He needed a certain amount of time to prepare before he could summon such a large number of pet beasts. Xiao Ying flapped his wings, but it found out that it couldn¡¯t catch up to the harpy¡¯s speed at all. It should be time for Pick¡¯s paralysis effect. Spherical lightning could reduce the opponent¡¯s attack speed and attack power by nearly 99%, and the movement speed. However, the duration was especially short. And it clearly didn¡¯t cause great damage to the opponent. D*mn it. Seeing that Du Lei had already disappeared into the night sky, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t command Xiao Ying to continue chasing. After all, there was a gap in speed. Just as he was feeling vexed, a burst of warm applause broke out in the crowd. Old Man: ¡°This is the most exciting duel I¡¯ve seen in the eighty years I¡¯ve lived.¡± Middle-aged man: ¡°So it turns out that I can have so many pet beasts at the same time. My Codo suddenly doesn¡¯t look good anymore.¡± Young girl: ¡°Wow, it¡¯s a pity that he looks too young. Otherwise, he¡¯d be perfect to be a boyfriend.¡± Fang Yuan had no time to care about all these. He summoned all of his pets back. He then turned around and walked towards the hotel door. The girl who was looking for her cat was holding a fiery red kitten in her arms. ¡°Thank you!¡± She ran to Fang Yuan with the kitten in her arms and bowed deeply. ¡°Dun mention. How did you break open the cage?¡± Fang Yuan was more curious about this. He wanted to see if the armored bear could break the cage with a single slap, because the cage that could isolate spiritual power was probably not made of ordinary materials. ¡°His clothes were left in the room, and there¡¯s a key inside.¡± The girl handed a shiny key to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan thought to himself that the cage material was quite special. Maybe it had research value. He therefore took the key and walked to the man¡¯s room. He wanted to test his guess. As expected. The moment he touched the cage, the system sensed something. [ Ding! Lockdown cage detected. Grade: Gold high-grade ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ The host can choose from the following ways to proceed with the increase. ] [ First, give up on the 100 times increase and obtain a gold high-grade lockdown cage. ] [ Second, 100 times increase in quality and obtain a platinum low-grade steel lockdown cage. ] Since there was only one choice, he would definitely choose to upgrade it to a steel cage. With this cage, he could imprison the demonized pet beasts without being devoured. There was another use, which was that the pet beasts imprisoned in the cage would not be able to display their abilities. It was the most suitable for experimental research. Now that there were more and more demonized pet beasts, with this cage, they would have a container for their experiments. Fang Yuan had already thought it through. To become the world¡¯s strongest trainer and explore the profundity of pet beasts, he had to have his own research institute. Whether it was Zhao Ren or Wang Chenggong, their research was extremely valuable. When the time was right, they could combine it with his own research institute. Whether it was to make money or to increase his own strength, it was a good choice. Although the goal was a bit far, one had to have a long-term plan. This was Fang Yuan¡¯s true thoughts. Not long after Fang Yuan moved the cage back to his room, the pet security management committee came to Du Lei¡¯s room to conduct an investigation. The policewoman in charge of the investigation took a written statement from Fang Yuan. When she learned that Fang Yuan had defeated du Lei, she was quite surprised. However, when her superior told her that Fang Yuan was the leader of the Gryphon Legion, she immediately understood. She did not only ask Fang Yuan to sign the statement, but she also asked for an additional signature. Although the signature still carried the childishness of a teenager, in this world where the strong were respected, who cared. The next day, Fang Yuan arranged for the staff of the logistics company to send the cage to his home. Fang Yuan had tried to let the gryphon carry the steel cage, but the moment they touched the cage, they would completely lose their strength. This kind of metal material seemed to have a miraculous effect on pets. Therefore, they could only go through logistics. As the cage was very expensive, the logistics cost was as high as 100,000. Fang Yuan did not have any cash on hand, but a person walked out from the crowd and took the initiative to pay the logistics cost for Fang Yuan. This person was the man who had lost a bet with Fang Yuan in the trade area of the trainer. He had seen Fang Yuan¡¯s battle yesterday and only had admiration for him now. Seeing that Fang Yuan did not have any money, he immediately took out the money, fully convinced. ¡°Thank you,¡± Fang Yuan said calmly. ¡°You¡¯re welcome. Next time when you come to Demon City again, remember to come to my family¡¯s equipment shop to take a look. We will buy all your equipment at a high price,¡± he said with a smile. Last time, he had spent all his money to buy two silver equipment and was scolded by his parents, In the end, he sold them for nearly five times the price. Fang Yuan got on the train again. This time, his target was the grass arcane realm in Shanghai. Chapter 99 - Return to Science and Technology University Laboratory At Demon City of Fire Country, Fang Yuan was standing in the middle of the city, feeling the people come and go. His feeling of the city was adding up the people moving around the train station, the number of the people would be more than the people in Chuxin Town. ¡°The address of the grass arcane realm is in the Fire Country¡¯s Science and Technology University.¡± Fang Yuan looked at the address in the message. The last time he came to the university was about incubating the gryphon legion, and he even took out the secret formula for the evolution potion to exchange with Dr. Wang. Since he was not in a hurry to challenge grass arcane realm today, he might as well pay Dr. Wang a visit first. Fang Yuan had already obtained the right to use the laboratory previously, so he could enter the laboratory just by scanning his face. Quite a number of the laboratory staff in the laboratory also knew Fang Yuan. Although this child had only stayed in their laboratory for a few days, but he had left a deep impression on them. More importantly, his secret recipe for the evolution potion and the gryphon legion had directly raised their laboratory¡¯s rating by a notch. The items that they could apply for funding had also increased. ¡°Is Dr. Wang in?¡± Fang Yuan had not been granted the authority to enter Dr. Wang¡¯s room yet. He saw a scientist who was resting in the lounge and asked. A familiar voice then came from behind. ¡°Isn¡¯t this Fang Yuan? Dr. Wang has gone out to look for the Di Mu Lin leaves today. That¡¯s an important ingredient in the formula for the evolution potion. It must be kept fresh.¡± Fang Yuan turned around and saw that it was Liu Xiwen, who had gone against him previously. Ever since he was dumped by the people of the black market, Liu Xiwen had been forgiven by Dr. Wang. Now he was no longer doing evil things. Instead, he was doing management work in the laboratory. ¡°Hi, Director Liu.¡± As Liu Xiwen had repeatedly attempted to plot against Fang Yuan, he didn¡¯t have a good impression of Liu Xiwen. Liu Xiwen was aware that Fang Yuan was not in favor of him, so he just laughed self-deprecatingly and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, you don¡¯t have to be too hostile towards me. I just want to earn some money, after all, I spent money to enter the laboratory. Now, I think the market value of the evolution potion is much higher than selling pet cubs, so I won¡¯t do that kind of thing again.¡± Fang Yuan was actually not interested if Liu Xiwen would still do evil or not. Anyway, if he caused trouble again, he would just beat him up again. ¡°Why are you looking for Dr. Wang?¡± Liu Xiwen also did not want to dwell on the topic with Fang Yuan, so he quickly changed the topic and asked Fang Yuan the purpose of his visit. ¡°I¡¯m going to challenge grass arcane realm soon, but the arcane realm that I¡¯m going to challenge this time is a bit different. I need a grass-type pet beast, and I want to see if Dr. Wang has a suitable grass-type pet beast here.¡± Fang Yuan said. In Dr. Wang¡¯s laboratory, there were a large number of pet beast cubs with all kinds of attributes. He wanted to see if there were any that he could replenish, because he didn¡¯t have the confidence to just rely on a queen bee. ¡°Special arcane realm?¡± Liu Xiwen held his hand and stroked his chin, thinking, ¡°Are you going for the certification of Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± Fang Yuan was a bit surprised that Liu Xiwen actually knew about Heavenly Secret Pavilion. No matter how he looked at him, Liu Xiwen looked like an ignorant and incompetent hooligan. Seeing the disdain in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes, Liu Xiwen smiled bitterly and said, ¡°Hey, after all I am still a professor at Science and Technology University, it¡¯s just that I am not a PhD. I know about domestic education and research.¡± ¡°If you want to find a powerful grass-type pet beast from us, I am afraid you will be disappointed, because we only have silver low-grade pet beasts here. You must understand that the pet beasts used for experiments have to be easy to obtain, cheap, and have advantage in all aspects.¡± Liu Xiwen picked up a mouse with grass growing on its tail and showed it to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan was very disappointed. It seemed that he could only go to the pet shop to take a look. Then Li Xiwen said, ¡°Cough, although it¡¯s not a glorious thing to tell, I used to sell pet beasts to the black market. I know a black market trading point where you should be able to find powerful pet beasts, but the price might be a bit expensive. Do you want to try it?¡± ¡°Black market? Are the pet beasts in the black market all obtained by swindle?¡± Fang Yuan looked at Liu Xiwen, his eyes were full of disdain. ¡°You can say that, but in the black market, there are also powerful elite pet beasts captured by trainers from the arcane realms or wilderness. Some have even captured demonized pet beasts. You should be very clear about the strength of demonized pet beasts.¡± Liu Xiwen¡¯s words were true. Fang Yuan had fought with demonized pet beasts several times and had accumulated a wealth of experience. Demonized pet beasts and ordinary pet beasts looked similar from the outside, but the attributes of demonized pet beasts were twice that of ordinary pet beasts. Liu Xiwen handed Fang Yuan a business card and said, ¡°No. 76 Gu Dang Street is the entrance. Take this business card then only you can enter.¡± After saying that, he patted Fang Yuan¡¯s shoulder, ¡°Good luck.¡± Looking at Liu Xiwen¡¯s back, Fang Yuan remembered something, ¡°Oh yes, your wind and thunder fox.¡± ¡°That little guy, I got it from the black market. But it looked very weak, so it didn¡¯t cost much. It was about eight million.¡± Liu Xiwen said, ¡°It¡¯s in your hands now, right? Take good care of it.¡± ¡­ Standing at No. 76 Gu Dang Street, it seemed to be an ordinary pet shop called Sky Pet Market. ¡°Hello, Sir, are you here to buy pet beast?¡± The shop assistant saw Fang Yuan swaggering in, looking like a student, not a rich man, so he looked a bit cold. Fang Yuan asked, ¡°Are you the person in charge here?¡± The shop assistant was baffled and looked at Fang Yuan. ¡°I¡¯m Shop Assistant No.1, in charge of guiding you to buy a pet. If you¡¯re looking for the person in charge of our store, he¡¯s sitting at the bar counter right now.¡± Fang Yuan nodded and walked directly to the manager at the bar counter. This manager gave him a deep impression because he was a one-eyed man like a pirate. He was also exuding a bandit¡¯s aura unintentionally. ¡°What¡¯s the matter, little kid? If you want to buy a pet, just look for the shop assistant. There¡¯s a discount item at the door, it¡¯s a bit incomplete, but the price is cheap, you can go and have a look.¡± Seeing that it was a kid, he lost interest. Fang Yuan silently put the business card on the bar counter. The one-eyed boss raised his head and looked at him, ¡°You are¡­¡± ¡°I was introduced by Liu Xiwen.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know what their secret code was, so he could only mention Liu Xiwen¡¯s name, after all, this business card was his. The boss stood up and gestured for Fang Yuan to come behind the bar counter. He walked in and saw something that looked like a metal manhole cover on the floor. The metal looked very familiar, it was obviously the same type of metal of the cage that he had obtained from the hotel the day before yesterday. The pet shop was legal, but the black market for pet beasts was prohibited. This was because many people would do everything in their power to seize other people¡¯s powerful pet beasts, which would lead to conflicts and clashes among the trainers. It was not good for Fire Country to maintain a stable order. However, who would know that right below the pet shop was the pet black market? Chapter 100: - Transaction at Black Market Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The basement was a little dark. The boss clapped his hands and the lights came on. Fang Yuan looked up and saw a group of monkeys with a lantern on their tails. They used their own light to illuminate the basement. By a rough count, there were close to 100 of them, which was equivalent to a legion of lantern monkeys. ¡°Why are they so obedient?¡± Fang Yuan asked. The boss laughed and said, ¡°Trainers respect the strong, and pets are even more so. As long as you can defeat them, they will be obedient.¡± Although Fang Yuan could not agree with this point of view, but this was a black market after all, so he did not say much. The footsteps of the two people sounded extremely deep in the long corridor of the basement, with echoes. ¡°What kind of pet beast do you want to buy?¡± The boss asked. Along the way, Fang Yuan had seen far too many pet beasts in the cages on both sides that were similar to prison cells. They had a common characteristic, which was that they were huge in size and looked like ferocious beasts. Most people in the Fire Country thought the same. They felt that the bigger the size of a pet beast, the stronger its fighting power. The nobles were even more so. Hence, the majority of the pet beasts in the black market were also large sized pet beasts. ¡°Grass type pet beasts will do. It would be best if they are good at attacking, their origins are clear, and there are no other requirements.¡± Fang Yuan calmly stated his requirements. ¡°Grass type? Attack?¡± The boss cupped his chin as he was thinking. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve heard of such a requirement. The majority of grass type pet beasts are support type pet beasts. If you want to heal, control and support, the grass type pet beasts have many choices. But if you want to attack,¡± the boss seemed to have thought of something, ¡°There¡¯s one.¡± They walked quickly and came to the black market near the street. There was a lizard in a cage with flower buds growing on its back. Four vine tentacles were growing from the flower buds and underneath was the lizard. ¡°Vine lizard, this is one of the best fighting experts among grass-type pet beasts. Do you want to take a look?¡± Fang Yuan was extremely satisfied with this pet beast. First of all, it was two meters long, and with the flower bud on its back, which should be one meter tall, it looked extremely fierce. However, the lizard had been lying on the ground motionlessly, and the vines looked a little yellowish. ¡°Why does this lizard look sick?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Grass-type pet beasts can¡¯t live without sunlight and water. We have unlimited supply of water, but if it¡¯s sunlight, you have to take it for sunbathe. As long as it stays under the Sun for two hours, it will recover quickly,¡± the boss explained. ¡°Do you want to take a look?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. The boss pressed a button, and the cage was pushed in front of Fang Yuan. The lizard looked at Fang Yuan with lifeless eyes, then closed its eyes to rest. However, the boss pressed the button again, and it seemed that a burst of electricity had passed through its body, making it energetic. The vines even gathered together to attack the boss, but the moment they touched the cage, the vines seemed to be hit by an even greater electric shock, and they immediately shrank back. ¡°Little b*stard, you still dare to mess with me.¡± The boss said fiercely and was about to press the electric shock button again. Fang Yuan stopped him and said, ¡°I¡¯ll take this pet beast. How much does it cost?¡± Hearing that Fang Yuan wanted to buy a pet beast, the boss immediately put on a smiling expression on his face. He rubbed his hands and then stretched out five fingers. ¡°500 million?¡± ¡°Young man, seeing you have travelled all over the world, you can be considered to have seen a lot. You definitely won¡¯t make a low-class mistake.¡± The boss smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t joke around. It¡¯s five billion. Five billion for platinum intermediate-grade platinum vine lizard, it¡¯s a great deal.¡± Fang Yuan was not shocked by the price of five billion. He had already found a way to earn money. What shocked him more was that the grade of the vine lizard was actually platinum intermediate-grade! After being strengthened, wouldn¡¯t he be able to directly obtain a platinum high-grade grass-type pet? It was hard to imagine that a few months ago, he was still fighting for a silver-grade pet. Now, a platinum high-grade was right in front of him. Fang Yuan calculated in his mind that he would need to make dozens of trips back and forth to the trainer¡¯s equipment store for a price of five billion. However, the inflation was too severe. He would need to farm until the trainers in Shanghai were exhausted. ¡°Boss, I won¡¯t buy it for the time being. Can I pick it up the day after tomorrow? I don¡¯t have that much money with me.¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Sure, but if you don¡¯t have money, I can still give you this pet.¡± The boss said with a smile. Was there really such a good thing? Fang Yuan felt that he could have heard wrong. He looked at the boss with a puzzled expression. He didn¡¯t know what he was thinking. ¡°You were introduced by Liu Xiwen, right? We understand that your laboratory has a potion that can allow pet beasts to evolve to a higher level. If you can tell me the secret formula, this vine lizard will be given to you as a gift.¡± The boss said that since he could be the boss of the black market, he naturally had a certain level of vision and strength. Although at the beginning, he saw that Fang Yuan was just an ordinary student, but along the way, he saw so many platinum grade pet beasts but was not moved at all. He did not even show any fear on his face. Moreover, he had been introduced by Liu Xiwen, so the boss had guessed a possibility, that he was Fang Yuan, the man who had created the gryphon legion. ¡°You have the formula, right, Fang Yuan?¡± A flattering smile was on the boss¡¯s face. It seemed that the Yan Country¡¯s trainers were indeed lacking in some aspects. Just like Fang Yuan, he had once thought that the evolution of a pet beast was as difficult as ascending to the heavens, until he saw that the void blood claw could evolve through battle in the underground colosseum. After that, Zhao Ren cultivated the evolution potion, and finally completed the perfect evolution by exchanging the materials during the arcane realm certification. Most of the trainers were like this black market boss, thinking about the potion that could raise a pet beast¡¯s grade to be invincible. ¡°I do have the secret formula for the evolution potion, but you can also see that I am only a student and I can not remember that secret formula, so it is impossible for me to tell you.¡± Fang Yuan replied, ¡°However, I have a ready-made bottle of evolution potion here. You can take it, but if something happens that violates the law, you know the consequences.¡± ¡°Okay, okay, okay! Don¡¯t worry!¡± Hearing that there was an evolution potion, the boss looked excited. Fang Yuan did have a bottle of evolution potion. He had originally planned to keep it for Ah Li. But now he no longer needed this potion to evolve, as he wanted to challenge the arcane realm and evolve more thoroughly and perfectly, so he had given up on the idea of evolution using potion. He took out the blue potion bottle from his backpack and handed it to the black market boss. Fang Yuan said, ¡°This potion has a limit. This level of potion can only evolve a platinum low-grade to intermediate-grade.¡± As he said this, Fang Yuan thought of his system. As the pet¡¯s grade increased, the effect became worse and worse. His system could only evolve a platinum low-grade to platinum high-grade. This evolution potion, looked like a weakened version of the system. The only advantage was that anyone could use it. However, in terms of amplification, no one could compare to Fang Yuan who used cheats. Chapter 101 - Cancel the Collaboration! Fight! Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Okay, if this evolution potion is useful, I¡¯ll give you a 50% discount on your vine lizard. With the secret formula in hand, our collaboration in the future will be great.¡± The boss held the evolution potion in his hand and fondled admiringly Under the boss¡¯s lead, he came to a small prison cell where there was a¡­ Wind and thunder Fox! Fang Yuan recognized this pet at a glance because it looked exactly like Ah Li. However, he did not show this expression. Instead, he looked at the boss calmly as if nothing had happened. ¡°This is a three-elemental pet. The wind and thunder fox is a wind and thunder beast. It is my experimental pet,¡± the boss introduced. When the wind and thunder Fox saw the boss, it showed a fearful expression and kept retreating. When Fang Yuan saw all these, the imprint in the depths of his soul sensed it. It was Ah Li. Ah Li showed an angry expression, hoping that Fang Yuan would summon it. Fang Yuan stopped its impulse and told it that he would definitely let the wind and thunder Fox go back to nature. The boss first pressed the button on the remote control in his hand. The wind and thunder fox looked like it was in great pain from the electric shock. Seeing that the wind and thunder fox had lost its ability to resist, the boss grabbed the wind and thunder fox with one hand and took it out of the cage. ¡°How do I use this potion?¡± The boss opened the bottle cap of the potion and held the unconscious wind and thunder fox in his hand. He didn¡¯t know whether he should feed it or smear it on its body. ¡°Feed it,¡± Fang Yuan said expressionlessly. After drinking the potion, the wind and thunder fox showed a painful expression. This was very normal. Whether it was shadow wolf or steel gryphon, they would show a painful expression during the process of evolution with the potion. This potion was not a natural product, but a product of the devil. This was what Fang Yuan assessed the potion. But its effect was also obvious. Some pet beasts could even increase two grades at one go. The body of the wind and thunder fox in front of him was gradually changing. It originally only had one tail, but now it had three tails. Seeing this, Fang Yuan recalled the materials in the arcane realm. Ah Li¡¯s evolution material was the tail of three different elements. In other words, the perfectly evolved wind and thunder fox should have tails of three colors. However, the three tails in front of him only had an ordinary tail. The boss looked at the wind and thunder fox with a greedy expression. No, it should be called the Three-Tailed Spirit Fox now. ¡°It¡¯s true. It¡¯s been upgraded from gold high-grade to platinum low-grade! A genius invention!¡± The boss took out a measuring instrument and measured the strength of the three-tailed spirit fox. It was ten times stronger than the wind and thunder fox. The more elements a pet beast had, the more perfect its growth curve was. If it was only two elements, its evolution would probably only increase its attributes by five times. However, Fang Yuan did not feel good at the moment. The man in front of him made him feel like vomiting. The reason why he did not make a move just now was to confirm the boss¡¯s level and whether he had any helpers. He had now confirmed that the highest grade pet beast in the shop was only a platinum high-grade, one grade higher than the pet shop. However, it was definitely not a match for Fang Yuan. ¡°Okay, you now go back and get the secret formula now, and I¡¯ll give you the vine lizard!¡± The boss was in extreme excitement at this moment. ¡°I¡¯ve changed my mind,¡± Fang Yuan said indifferently. ¡°Oh? Do you think the vine lizard is not enough? I can give you another thunder rhinoceros, do you think¡­¡± Before he finished speaking, the boss frowned, ¡°You actually want to fight with me?¡± The boss was a fierce one-eyed man. He must have been a ruthless person in the past. Seeing that Fang Yuan¡¯s eye expression was not right, he took the initiative to punch. Fang Yuan instantly summoned Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin acted as a meat cushion and easily picked up Fang Yuan to avoid the punch. ¡°This is great. It¡¯s actually a platinum steel gryphon. This is the favorite collection of the nobles.¡± The boss laughed frantically. Ever since Fang Yuan showed the strength of the gryphon legion, people kept coming to ask the boss about the steel gryphons. There were quite a few iron gryphons, but steel gryphons in a large group and were human-friendly, as long as he could defeat Fang Yuan, he would be able to snatch all the gryphons. ¡°What a pity. Don¡¯t even think of getting one.¡± Fang Yuan stood up and put on the tactical ring. He wanted to defeat the boss face to face. ¡°Let¡¯s fight!¡± As Ah Li strongly requested to fight the battle, Fang Yuan sent out Xiao Jin and Ah Li this time. ¡°Good guy, dual pet trainer. No, I remember that you can summon more than a hundred gryphons, but my space can¡¯t accommodate so many pets.¡± The boss said, ¡°Today, I¡¯ll let you know the power of my black market owner, Pan Rui.¡± His pet beast suddenly appeared on the stage. It was a three-headed hound that was emitting flames all over its body, looking very much like a hellhound. It was obviously a fire-type pet beast. However, Fang Yuan did not have the certification of the fire arcane realm, so he could not obtain the specific information of this pet beast. However, the battle still had to continue. Ah Li had already gathered lightning bolts and attacked the fire hound. ¡°Hmph, it¡¯s actually a wind and thunder fox. But did you know? Wind and thunder foxes are not the only three-elemental pet beasts. My Gale Hound is the best among the three-elemental pet beasts!¡± The boss, no, Pan Rui said ferociously. His eye patch seemed to be emitting a golden light. The gale hound shot a flame at Ah Li¡¯s thunder ball. A beam of flame quickly absorbed the thunder ball. Then, the flame sprayed on the spot where Ah Li was standing, but Ah Li nimbly dodged it. ¡°Let¡¯s see whether your wind is stronger or the Gale Hound¡¯s is stronger!¡± Pan Rui commanded, ¡°Gale Hound, quickly use your wind chasing skill!¡± Ah Li had just used his wind chasing skill, and now his speed had increased to an extremely exaggerated level. The gale hound¡¯s wind chasing skill was obviously higher in level than Ah Li¡¯s. Not only was its speed faster, but it could also perform difficult movements like flying in the air! ¡°This is the real wind chasing skill, walking on the wind,¡± Pan Rui explained. ¡°Only level three wind chasing skills can be upgraded. You, a gold grade wind thunder fox, want to fight with my platinum high-grade Gale Hound? If you want to eat sh*t, bite!¡± The Gale Hound caught on Ah Li and bit its neck. ¡°Xiao Jin, quickly go and save it.¡± Just as the gale hound launched its second bite attack, the gryphon kicked its body with its paw and kicked it away. ¡°Use { glare } !¡± While the gryphon and the gale hound were staring at each other, Fang Yuan activated his control skill on it. As long as the gale hound¡¯s attack decreased¡­ At this moment, Xiao Jin gave Fang Yuan a feedback: { glare } was ineffective. This was because Xiao Jin was only at platinum intermediate-grade, while the gale hound was at platinum high-grade creature. An advanced grade pet beast could reduce the effect of a low-grade pet beast¡¯s control skill. The fierce-looking gale hound¡¯s body seemed to be burning with flames. The next attack would probably be even fiercer! To describe the gale hound¡¯s attack in a single description, it was like a flash of lightning! Chapter 102 - Demonized Gale Hound Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The gale hound¡¯s attack target this time was Xiao Jin. Fortunately, Xiao Jin was a defensive pet beast. After taking a few of its attacks, he was able to stand still. Ah Li also staggered up. The bite caused great damage to it. It was bleeding continuously and his movements had also slowed down. ¡°Ah Li, you should come back and rest.¡± Fang Yuan said. When fighting with a pet beast like the gale hound that had both the skills of attack and speed, it was better to use a pet beast with high defense to deal with it. Fang Yuan planned to recall Ah Li and summon the armored bear to fight the other party. However, Ah Li stubbornly shook its head, indicating that it wanted to fight to the end. ¡°Alright.¡± Seeing Ah Li¡¯s gaze, Fang Yuan had no choice but to let it continue to stay in the battle field. Speaking of which, Ah Li had a move that other pet beasts did not have. It was the ¡°thunder fire¡± that was strengthened in the wind mystic realm. As long as it could hit the gale hound, it could cause it a serious injury. Xiao Jin had been pounced onto the ground by the gale hound a few times. Even though its wings were as tough as steel, it was very much damaged this time. ¡°Fang Yuan, you want to steal my things, right? Come on, Summon Your gryphon legion to fight with me! Hahaha.¡± Pan Rui seemed to have entered a crazy state. It was impossible to summon the gryphon legion. Not to mention that this place was small, summoning a large number of pet beasts at on go would consume too much of his mental power. This place was unlike the arcane realm, which could sustain the existence of the gryphon indefinitely. In a team battle, with Xiao Jin and Xiao Ying¡¯s help in commanding, the consumption of mental energy was relatively small. In this kind of high-intensity battle, summoning the gryphon legion would exhaust his mental energy in an instant. Not only would he not be able to eliminate the opponent, he might even lose himself. Fang Yuan was not a fool. But he seemed to have underestimated Pan Rui¡¯s strength a little. Was a platinum high-grade gale hound so powerful? At this time, he suddenly remembered something that Liu Xiwen had told him ¡ª there were even demonized pet beasts in the black market. ¡°You are not a gale hound at all, but a demonized gale hound!¡± Fang Yuan finally understood. The S-rank quest monsters in the arcane realm were all platinum high-grade, and it did not lack of divine descendant beasts. For such a difficult opponent, how could platinum high-grade reach the level? Seeing that Fang Yuan had seen through him, Pan Rui was a little surprised. ¡°You Little Brat, you have some substance. You can even see that, not bad. This is a demonized pet beast. The only difference between him and a normal pet beast is¡­¡± ¡°He wants to keep eating ordinary pet beasts! He wants to rely on other pet beasts to increase his strength! Now, his strength is infinitely close to diamond¡¯s!¡± ¡°You are really a dirty guy.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s heart was surrounded by an unknown anger. In fact, he had never thought of himself as the savior of pet beasts or the messenger of justice. However, he felt physically disgusted by this abnormal behavior. Since the storm lightning fox refused to go back, he could summon the armored bear again. Since he could not defeat the pet beast, he could directly attack the trainer, although this was against the rules of pet beast battle. However, Fang Yuan was not bound by the sense of justice. The armored bear felt the call and appeared in the basement out of thin air. ¡°Armored bear, attack Pan Rui!¡± Fang Yuan gave the order decisively. Although pet beasts would not attack humans directly, he would only obey his master¡¯s order. ¡°You are crazier than me.¡± Pan Rui saw the armored bear¡¯s heavy body running towards him at high speed. However, he was not afraid. He could control the black market, so he naturally had his own abilities. He pressed a button lightly, and a cage fell from the ceiling, accurately putting the armored bear inside. The armored bear reached out to pat the cage, but was pushed to the other side of the cage by a strong electric current. After going back and forth, it was actually paralyzed by the electric current. Fang Yuan tried to recall the armored bear, but he found that the spiritual connection was broken. This was the same method that poachers used to capture their pets. D*mn it¡­ Fang Yuan thought to himself. While Xiao Jin and the gale hound were fighting intensely, he would let Ah Li attack Pan Rui. However, he did not know how many traps Pan Rui still had. If he could get his hands on that remote control¡­ Xiao Jin was fighting with the gale hound and was gradually at a disadvantage. Fang Yuan could clearly feel that his mental power was declining. When he could not concentrate, the gryphon would return to the space. At that time, he would definitely lose. ¡°Ah Li, use lightning gathering. It doesn¡¯t need to be too strong, as long as it can hit the remote control in Pan Rui¡¯s hand. Can you do it?¡± Ah Li¡¯s entire body was trembling. The bleeding had already stopped, but she still could not use her strength. She used all her strength to gather a lightning ball in her mouth¡­ Pan Rui suddenly noticed Ah Li¡¯s movements. He ordered the gale hound to leave the steel gryphon and attack the wind and thunder fox. The gale hound rushed over at an extremely fast speed. Xiao Jin wanted to stop it, but could not catch up at all. Just when Fang Yuan felt that he was done for, the three-tailed gale fox that had just evolved earlier glared at the Gale Hound with its fiery round eyes. Almost at the instant when the gale hound was about to pounce on Ah Li, it blocked in front of Ah Li. As it had just evolved, although its ability had been greatly improved, its physical strength could not keep up. After blocking the gale hound¡¯s attack, it did not have the strength to stand anymore and fell to the ground. However, this period of time was enough for Ah Li¡¯s lightning ball being formed, and it rushed straight toward the remote control in Pan Rui¡¯s hand. The speed and reaction of a human could not compare to a pet beast. In an instant, the remote control turned into ashes. The metal cages automatically opened. Pan Rui¡¯s face began to twitch. As long as the fierce gale hound was there, he was not afraid of these pet beasts acting rashly. But now, he only wanted to take care of Fang Yuan and his pet beasts. Fortunately, most pet beasts did not have intelligence, and there were still conditions to follow, so they did not dare to leave the cage. However, Fang Yuan could take the opportunity to retrieve the armored bear and let it enter the contract gem to sleep. While he was considering which pet beast to summon¡­ he heard a strange call. ¡°Young man, do you still have that kind of potion?¡± Fang Yuan suddenly turned his head to look. It was the vine lizard. It seemed to have the ability to communicate with humans. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯m using my spirit to communicate with you. You can¡¯t defeat that gale dog. I¡¯m lying here because it had injured me.¡± After all, fire-type pet beasts had a strong suppression on grass-type pet beasts. ¡°But if you have the potion that allowed the gale fox to evolve, I¡¯ll definitely be able to defeat it after I evolve.¡± The lizard seemed to have lived for a long time, and its voice sounded like an old man¡¯s. ¡°I don¡¯t have any more potion,¡± Fang Yuan replied. This was the truth; he had only brought one bottle. Trusting the black market owner¡¯s conscience was the worst decision he had ever made. At this instant, the gale hound was pouncing towards Fang Yuan. ¡°You¡¯re the only one who knows how to attack a trainer?¡± Pan Rui¡¯s expression was extremely ferocious, and he was like a god of death from hell. The vine lizard stretched out its vines to wrap around the gale hound, but the gale hound¡¯s entire body burned up, forcing back the vines. But it wasn¡¯t meaningless to do so. Fang Yuan was saved. Fang Yuan said, ¡°Although I don¡¯t have the potion, I can allow you to complete a higher level evolution! Are you willing to establish a contract with me?¡± As long as he used a 100 times increase system, along with the platinum intermediate-grade vine lizard, defeating the gale hound was definitely not a problem! Chapter 103 - Hundred Times Increase! Blade Vine Lizard! ¡°Come, form a soul contract with me.¡± Fang Yuan extended his hand towards the vine lizard. The moment they made contact, Fang Yuan felt the system¡¯s options. [ Ding! Vine lizard detected. Grade: Platinum Intermediate: Level four low-tier. ] [ Do you wish to proceed with the 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times fold increase and obtain a platinum intermediate vine lizard. Level 20. ] [ Second, receive 100 times increase in quality and obtain a platinum pinnacle vine lizard. Level 20. ] [ Third, receive 100 times increase in effect and obtain a platinum intermediate vine lizard. Level 25. ] Did I even need to think about it? Second Choice. The vine of the blade vine lizard increased its hardness and flexibility. The vine made of this special material would not be burned even in a raging fire. The vine lizard did not know what had happened at Fang Yuan¡¯s side. But the moment it entered into a soul contract with Fang Yuan, it felt an overwhelming power surging into its body. [ Scientific name: Blade vine lizard. ] [ Bloodline: Ludania. ] [ Rarity: Platinum Pinnacle. ] [ Attributes: Grass, reptile. ] [ Positioning: Attack/control. ] [ Skills: 1. Whip; 2. Tongue attack; 3. Venom spray; 4. Overlord body. ] [ Personality: Calm. ] [ Hobbies: Books. ] ¡°You?¡± Pan Rui was slightly stunned. He asked disdainfully, ¡°What did you do to my pet?¡± The gale hound had been attacked by the vines of the vine lizard just now, so all of its hatred was now focused on the vine lizard. Its eyes gradually revealed the purple light of a demonized pet, which meant that the fierce gale hound had already raised its performance to the limit. ¡°Hmph. It was you who hurt me.¡± The sharp-edged vine lizard and Fang Yuan¡¯s consciousness merged together. Fang Yuan was surprised to find out that the vine lizard actually had its own thoughts, and it looked older than him, like an old man. ¡°Are you sure you can defeat him?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the fierce gale hound¡¯s body that had turned from red to purple, and the sense of oppression became more and more obvious. ¡°Success rate, 80-90% .¡± The vine lizard stretched its vines, and before the fierce gale hound attacked again, it was in a defensive position. Almost at the same time that the gale hound charged over, the vine lizard grabbed the gale hound with its four tentacles. The gale hound wanted to bite the vine, but it was flung away by it. Then the vine lizard stuck out its tongue, it threw a blow at the gale hound¡¯s brain, but the gale hound dodged it. Was this a battle between platinum-level pinnacle beasts? Fang Yuan was also stunned. In his previous battle with platinum level pet beast, he still had some strength left. If the illusionary beasts in the arcane realm were all peak platinum level pets, it would be impossible to overcome them. Just their speed and strength alone would completely crush him. Fang Yuan had not looked at his attribute panel because he felt that numbers were just a support. However, the battle between the vine lizard and the fierce gale dog had left a deep impression on him. He had to understand what level this battle was. He opened the vine lizard¡¯s attribute panel in his wristband. Following that, a string of data appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. [ Vine lizard. ] [ Level: Level 20, grade four-low. ] [ Attack: 7,000. ] [ Defense: 1,500. ] [ Mental force: 6,330. ] [ Life value: 150,000. ] D*mn, this attribute was an entire level higher than the steel gryphon. The Steel Gryphon¡¯s agility was only slightly higher, and that was also because the steel gryphon was a defensive pet. The gale hound¡¯s value was probably not much lower because the vine lizard was actually tied with the gale hound. ¡°Oh yes, my tactical ring.¡± Fang Yuan suddenly thought of his own trainer¡¯s equipment. Now that he had more strength, he had a greater chance of winning. ¡°I¡¯ll give you the vine lizard. Can we not fight anymore?¡± Pan Rui let out a long sigh and asked, ¡°If this goes on, neither of us will benefit.¡± At this moment, Fang Yuan was immersed in the battle. The gale hound was now completely out of Pan Rui¡¯s control. It was getting closer and closer to the primitive beast. It was attacking with its claws, biting, and then bursting into flames. It was completely on its own and had nothing to do with Pan Rui. In other words, if they were to attack Pan Rui now, he would not be protected by the gale hound. Pan Rui also realized this, so he continued to slowly move towards the exit of the basement, as long as he could reach the ground¡­ But just as he was about to reach the door, a group of lantern monkeys barked their fangs and brandished their claws, blocking his way. ¡°Ah¡­ah!¡± These monkeys had long hated Pan Rui to the bone. It was just that they had previously been afraid of the fierce gale hound and the remote control in his hands. Seeing that the remote control had been destroyed and the fierce gale hound had lost control, as the most intelligent ape-type pet beast that was closest to the thinking of humans, naturally, they would not let go of a good opportunity to take revenge. Seeing that Pan Rui was entangled by the lantern monkeys, Fang Yuan did not continue to care about him. Instead, he focused all of his attention on the fierce gale dog¡¯s movements. The fierce gale dog and the vine lizard were currently evenly matched. Neither of them could harm the other. In other words¡­ if there was a way to break the balance at this time, the battle situation would change. ¡°Xiao Jin.¡± Fang Yuan called out. ¡°No, young man, let me kill it.¡± This was the first time Fang Yuan got to know that pet beast could actually give him battle advice. ¡°Your strength is equal to his. It¡¯s not that easy to defeat it.¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Do you know what the fatal weakness of the demonic pet beast Is?¡± While fighting with the gale hound, he communicated with Fang Yuan¡¯s consciousness. The vine lizard was indeed very experienced in battle. It was worthy of being a battle pet beast that had risen to level 20 by itself. However, this sentence itself made Fang Yuan even more shocked. ¡°You actually know about demonized pet beasts?¡± ¡°Of course I do. I almost became a victim of the magic core,¡± said the vine lizard. ¡°Do you know how to use skills like acceleration?¡± ¡°Are you talking about the trainer skill?¡± Fang Yuan asked, and then he realized what else it could be if not the trainer skill. ¡°No, I¡¯m just a high school student,¡± he replied immediately ¡°Alright then. Young man, do you have any skills that can bring sunlight?¡± The vine lizard asked again, adding, ¡°I can¡¯t hold on much longer. If there¡¯s sunlight, I¡¯ll be able to accumulate enough energy to give it a fatal blow.¡± Sunlight? Fang Yuan glanced at the lantern monkeys. The lantern monkeys had already beaten Pan Rui black and blue until he couldn¡¯t be recognized. ¡°Can¡¯t that light do it?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Of course not. I want pure sunlight.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes. Although he was extremely tired at the moment, only that move could summon sunlight. That move could be very dangerous¡­ but now, he could not care too much. ¡°Xiao Yin¡­¡± Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin¡¯s sister. Xiao Jin immediately understood what Fang Yuan meant, and the two pet beasts nodded. [ Storm of destruction ] The target ¡ª the ceiling of the basement! He wanted to let the sunlight in! Chapter 104 - Subduing the Demonized Gale Hound Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The moment he released the destructive storm, Fang Yuan felt like he was going to faint. The battle between the vine lizard and the gale hound had consumed too much mental energy. It was also possible that the higher the pet¡¯s grade and level, the faster the mental energy would be consumed by the trainer. The destructive storm was not only an area-of-effect killing skill, but also an ability to cause additional damage to buildings. At that moment, a crack suddenly appeared on the ground on a street in Shanghai that was rarely frequented by people. A gust of wind blew up the ground, and it happened to be noon time. The sun penetrated the ground and shone on the vine lizard. ¡°Quick!¡± Fang Yuan was swaying, and he immediately summoned Xiao Yin back to his space. He was already standing there, exhausted. The moment the sunlight shone on it, the vine lizard revealed a satisfied expression and closed its eyes. The flower bud on its body, which was tightly wrapped by the vines, actually bloomed. It was purplish-red like a poisonous flower. The sharp blade vines on its back also became thicker and stronger, tightly entangling the gale hound. After absorbing enough sunlight, the flower suddenly bloomed, bringing with it a huge shock wave that forced everyone back dozens of steps. At the same time, a bunch of spore-like things floated from the flower to the gale hound¡¯s body, surrounding it. The gale hound was first attacked by this shock wave, and then the spore landed on its body. Its eyes began to lose focus, as if it was about to fall asleep. It kept shaking its head, trying to get its spirits up, but eventually fell asleep. At that moment, the vine lizard stuck out its tongue and directly hit the gale dog between its eyebrows. Then it rolled its tongue, took out a black crystal from between its eyebrows, and threw it to Fang Yuan. ¡°This is?¡± As the battle was over, Fang Yuan¡¯s spirit could finally be relieved. He picked up the crystal that the vine lizard threw to him. ¡°This is a magic core. With it, you can use the power of magic. According to your human classification, its attributes are monsters.¡± The vine lizard explained. ¡°Magic?¡± The moment Fang Yuan touched the crystal, the system was awakened again. [ Ding! Black magic core detected. Grade: Platinum high-grade. ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a platinum high-grade black magic core. ] [ Second, receive 100 times increase in quality and obtain a platinum pinnacle black magic core. ] This time, there were only two options. There was no doubt that he could only choose from the two options. When Fang Yuan held the black magic core in his hand, a paragraph entered his mind: ¡°The world is equal. Why should the illusionary beasts be controlled by humans? We must take back our own world¡­¡± ¡°Ugh¡­¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s mind was imprinted with this piece of information, and an unbearable pain appeared. ¡°Relax, relax.¡± The vine lizard glanced at Fang Yuan and said calmly, ¡°This is why many pet beasts demonize. It¡¯s because they can¡¯t bear the pain. Put it away. The current you can¡¯t fully grasp this piece of information. Moreover¡­¡± The vine lizard looked at the gale hound lying on the ground, motionless. ¡°Its soul imprint has disappeared. It seems that its master abandoned it.¡± Fang Yuan put the black magic core into his backpack. Following the vine lizard¡¯s line of sight, the gale hound was lying on the ground, seemingly dying. ¡°You can save it. Its nature may not be that evil.¡± Fang Yuan slowly walked to the fierce gale hound¡¯s side. It seemed that its power had been greatly reduced because it had lost its magic core. ¡°Where¡¯s Pan Rui?¡± Thinking of this, Fang Yuan suddenly looked around. The lantern monkeys had fled in all directions because of the destructive storm just now. Pan Rui probably had taken this opportunity to escape. ¡°Should I save it? Think about it carefully. It has hurt you before, although it was not intentional.¡± ¡°Do I still need to think about it?¡± Fang Yuan summoned the healing queen without hesitation ¡°Heal it.¡± As the white light surrounded his body and then dispersed, the bloodstain in the gale hound¡¯s mouth gradually disappeared. It woke up and then stood up, looking at Fang Yuan warily. Fang Yuan stroked the gale hound like he was stroking a puppy¡¯s head, and the gale dog calmed down. ¡°Are you willing to become my pet?¡± Fang Yuan asked softly. After losing its master¡¯s contract, it had two choices. One was to wait for death, and the other was to find a new master. As a pet that had entered into a soul contract with a human, it had to feed on the human¡¯s mental energy in order to maintain its own ability. The fierce gale hound looked at the vine lizard. Seeing the vine lizard nod, it also nodded. Closing its eyes, Fang Yuan and the gale hound formed a contract. [ Scientific name: Gale hound. ] [ Bloodline: Heavenly dog. ] [ Rarity: Platinum high-grade (damaged)] [ Attributes: Fire, wind, beast. ] [ Positioning: Attack/assassinate. ] [ Skills: 1. Pounce; 2. Flame; 3. Wind chasing (intermediate); 4. Flame spitting. ] [ Loyalty: 5/100. ] Damaged? This was the first time I had seen such a grade. It was probably because it had been demonized previously, so it could no longer advance. For most pet beasts, being unable to advance was a very tragic thing, which meant that it would be at this level for the rest of its life. Even if its level increased, it could only increase its attributes within a certain range. Therefore, the gale dog seemed to be in a very low mood. As a battle-type pet beast, it also had its own dignity. But it didn¡¯t matter. [ Ding. Gale hound detected. Grade: Platinum high-grade (damaged) : Level: level five-high. ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain platinum high-grade (damaged) gale hound. Level: level five-high. ] [ Second, receive 100 times increase in attributes and obtain a platinum high-grade gale hound. Loyalty is increased to 100. Level five-high. ] [ Third, receive increase in attributes by 100 times and obtain a platinum high-grade (damaged) gale hound. Level six-low. ] Without hesitation, he chose the second option and repaired the gale hound to increase its loyalty. At this moment, the gale hound felt the changes in its body. It felt that the power of the flames seemed to have returned. It looked at Fang Yuan with a little doubt. ¡°Your grade has been repaired. You can¡¯t do anymore evil in the future.¡± Fang Yuan said indifferently. Then, he saw the gale hound pounce on him like a puppy and lick his face. ¡°Don¡¯t, it¡¯s so itchy.¡± Although he said that, Fang Yuan was still quite happy. On his trip to the black market today, he actually obtained two high-level platinum pet beasts! Moreover, they were one grass and one fire. They were the important companions that he wanted for challenging the arcane realm. When the vine lizard saw that the gale hound had returned to normal, it recalled the sudden increase in its own strength. It seemed to have sensed something, but it pretended as if nothing had happened. Fang Yuan did not gain nothing either. He understood that as the number of pet beasts increased, he had to constantly increase his mental power. Only in this way could he become the strongest in the future training journey. Chapter 105 - Demonized Grass Arcane Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Is this the grass arcane realm?¡± Two days had passed since the battle of the black market. As the battle consumed too much mental energy, Fang Yuan rested for two whole days before he recovered his energy. His body was still numb with pain, as if he had experienced the battle himself. Now that he had a platinum-pinnacle pet, Fang Yuan was even more confident in challenging the grass arcane realm. Not only did he have the recommendation from the director of the enrollment office, but he also had Dr. Wang Chenggong personally leading him. Fang Yuan did not encounter any obstacles when entering the grass arcane realm. In terms of the map, he chose the level three grass arcane realm. At this moment, he had already arrived at the grassland. ¡°The air is great.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes and felt the fragrance of the grass. However, the air was not only filled with the fragrance of the grass, but there was also a burning smell. ¡°Are you the challenger for the grass arcane realm certification?¡± A slender female voice came from behind. ¡°Why do you guys always appear behind me?¡± Fang Yuan complained. He turned around and saw a beautiful girl wearing a herdsman¡¯s costume with ethnic decorations on her head. She was also carrying a bow and arrow. ¡°Which arcane realm are you challenging now?¡± Her eyes narrowed into a line as she asked coldly. Fang Yuan stretched out five fingers, which meant that this was the fifth realm, which was also the second to last realm. ¡°You can call me Grass Fairy,¡± she said calmly, as if she had no emotion, ¡°But unfortunately, the difficulty of your certification exam has increased.¡± ¡°Ah?¡± Fang Yuan looked at her inexplicably, ¡°Does it mean the difficulty of the mission has increased?¡± He did not care about the difficulty of the mission because he had already defeated many high-grade pet beasts with the help of a platinum intermediate-grade pet beast. Now that he had the vine lizard, he would be able to complete S-rank missions as he pleased. However, he did not expect that the difficulty of the arcane realm could still be upgraded. However, no matter how much it was upgraded, it would only be the difficulty of a level three arcane realm. She sighed and pointed to the distance. ¡°Originally, the grass arcane realm was the easiest arcane realm to challenge because the grass-type pet beasts were not good at fighting. The mission was basically to heal and collect. Only the S-rank mission was to challenge the man-eating flower.¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s really simple.¡± Fang Yuan thought that compared to other arcane realms that constantly challenged the pet beasts with divine beast bloodlines, the grass arcane realm was indeed much simpler. But why did she say that the difficulty had increased? ¡°But now,¡± she frowned slightly, then, she explained in detail coldly, ¡°Just a month ago, a magic core appeared in the grass arcane realm. Many pet beasts were strengthened by the magic core. They even began to attack ordinary pet beasts, causing the grass arcane realm to be in a state of chaos now.¡± ¡°Magic Core?¡± Fang Yuan was shocked. wasn¡¯t this the kind of gem that he picked up in the black market that could make his heart chaotic and greatly increase his attributes, as well as enable him to use magic power? Thinking of the scene of the platinum high-grade gale hound fighting with the platinum pinnacle-grade vine lizard after obtaining the magic core, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart palpitated. Previously, he had thought that he was invincible in the world, but now it seemed that the world of pet beasts was far more vast than he had imagined. Grass Fairy suddenly fell silent. She stared into the distance and then raised her bow. An arrow pierced through the heart! A demonized iron-armored bee was shot through by her and fell on the grassland with its body twitching. Fang Yuan hurriedly ran forward. As expected, he obtained a [ gold intermediate magic core ] from it. ¡°Don¡¯t touch that thing,¡± Grass Fairy said coldly. ¡°It will bring you danger.¡± He threw the magic core into his backpack casually. This was a good thing. He could bring it to Wang Chenggong, Zhao Ren, and the others for doing research. If he could find a way to increase his strength without going berserk, it would completely change the structure of the world. Seeing that Fang Yuan was not affected by the magic core, she was slightly stunned. She asked, ¡°Won¡¯t you be affected by the berserk consciousness?¡± ¡°Yes, but it¡¯s not as obvious as the pet beast.¡± Fang Yuan smiled and said, ¡°If this thing is used well, it¡¯s a divine weapon. But now, it¡¯s controlled by a creature with ulterior motives.¡± Looking at Fang Yuan, Grass Fairy thought of something. She directly handed the grass arcane realm certification to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I can give the arcane realm certification to you directly, but I need you to do something for me.¡± As the guardian of the arcane realm, the grass fairy was unable to attack the pet beasts in the arcane realm unless they had the intention to attack her. Originally, the order of the arcane realm was maintained by her alone. However, during this period of time, the number of demonized pet beasts had increased and began to attack the ordinary pet beasts. The grass fairy could only watch anxiously in her heart. She could only watch as the pet beasts in her arcane realm fell one by one, or they fell to the ground and killed each other. Now that Fang Yuan had appeared, it was the best gift that God had given her. ¡°Fang Yuan, I want you to kill as many creatures with magic core as you can during your certification period.¡± A glimmer of hope appeared in grass fairy¡¯s eyes, ¡°Consider it a deal. In addition to the arcane realm certification, I can also give you permission to open the points store based on the number of demonized pet beasts you have killed.¡± ¡°Deal.¡± ¡°Then, can I see your pet beast? You know the rules of the arcane realm certification,¡± the grass fairy said. Fang Yuan smiled and summoned the healing bee queen and the vine lizard. ¡°Platinum pinnacle¡­¡± Grass Fairy muttered to herself, ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect it, I really didn¡¯t expect it.¡± Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t hear this. Grass Fairy directly marked the address of the demonized pet beast in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. At this moment, Fang Yuan was only thinking about how to get more magic core. He did not care about what the grass fairy was thinking at all. ¡­ Previously, he had used the gryphon legion to fight against the demonized iron-armored bees. The fierce wind of the gryphon legion had a miraculous effect on the flying pet beast. Although the vine lizard did not have the area of effect ability of the gryphon legion, in the grassland, under the sunlight, its hypnotic roe deer was a godly skill to quickly clear the enemy. The demonized iron-armored bees that came into contact with the spores fell to the ground one after another. The queen of healing bees did not stay idle either. Every time an iron-armored bee fell to the ground, it would fly over to check if there was any ¡°magic core¡± that Fang Yuan mentioned. As Fang Yuan did not allow it to touch the magic core directly, all it needed to do was to tell Fang Yuan when it saw the magic core. It turned out that not every demonized pet beast had a magic core. This time, they had killed more than 500 demonized iron-armored bees, but they had only obtained 20 gold intermediate-grade magic cores. If the magic core had a grade, this demonized pet beast was still relatively weak. In accordance with the map given to him by the grass fairy, the demonized iron-armored bees in this area had been eliminated. Fang Yuan thought to himself that time was too short. Just killing the demonized iron-armored bees had taken him nearly four hours. If he challenged them one by one, he was afraid that he would have run out of time by the time he reached the S-rank man-eating flower. Although he had the idea of saving the grass arcane realm, what was more important now was to increase his strength and efficiency. He changed his direction and went straight toward the giant tree in the center of the grassland. Chapter 106 - Earth Overlord Flower Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Scientific name: Earth Overlord Flower. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Rarity: Platinum high-grade (demonized)] [ Attributes: Grass, plant. ] [ Positioning: Attack/Dominator. ] [ Skills: 1. Random attack; 2. Berserk; 3. Devour; 4. Seed throwing. ] At this moment, Fang Yuan had already arrived in front of the final checkpoint. A man-eating flower that was eight meters tall and the size of a villa stood in front of them. Due to the grass arcane realm certification, its detailed information had already appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. As expected, a demonized creature was indeed powerful. The attributes of a platinum high-grade creature were actually on par with a platinum pinnacle vine lizard. Needless to say, Fang Yuan commanded the vine lizard to launch the attack. The vines of the earth overlord flower were obviously thicker and longer, reaching the thickness of a tree. They were also extremely agile. Every time they hit the ground, they would raise a huge amount of sand and dust. ¡°Stay away and let the healing queen bee protect you.¡± As the vine lizard said this, it helped Fang Yuan block the attack of one of the earth-overlord flower¡¯s tentacles which carried a small man-eating flower. If Fang Yuan was bitten by this, it was afraid that he would be doomed. ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He found more and more that the vine lizard was a reliable pet beast. Not only did it have strong combat strength, but it also had the ability to think independently. It was like he was a warrior himself. After the black market shop was torn down that day, the vine lizard was like the head of the pet beasts in the black market. It commanded the pet beasts to hide in the deep mountains under the cover of the lantern monkeys. This made Fang Yuan feel that the pet beasts also had their own consciousness, and it was very likely that they had their own military advisor. The vine lizard was such a character. Standing in a safe position, Fang Yuan began to connect his consciousness to the vine lizard. The earth overlord flower¡¯s main attack method was to use thick vines. Unlike the vine lizard, there was a small flower on the top of its vine that sucked blood. If it was hit by the vine, it would be bitten tightly and lose its vitality. There were a few times where the earth overlord flower caught the vine lizard. However, the vine lizard had an overlord body skill, so it could not be dragged. Therefore, it could not be pulled to its mouth and bitten off. If it was bitten, the game would immediately be over. Therefore, the vine lizard was still able to restrain its opponent in a certain sense. Fang Yuan thought to himself, it would be great if he could summon Ah Li. If it used the thunder fire skill, the man-eating flower would not be able to move. All he had to do was to ignite it and wait for it to be exhausted to death. ¡°Your idea is very good, but you have yet to understand the true significance of the arcane realm certification.¡± The vine lizard once again blocked the overlord flower¡¯s attack. It actually had the time to lecture Fang Yuan, this showed that it had not used its full strength at all. ¡°The significance of the secret realm certification? ¡°Fang Yuan asked in puzzlement. ¡°Why do you need to use pet beasts with corresponding attributes to correspond to the secret realm? Isn¡¯t this completely contrary to the principle of using attribute restraint to fight in the outside world?¡± Fang Yuan was a little shocked that the vine lizard actually understood this point. ¡°What the secret realm certification really requires you to grasp is the strengths and weaknesses of this type of pet beast, and increase your ability to control that type of pet beast.¡± The vine lizard said. It had tried to release spores just now, but it was obviously useless against this kind of creature that did not have a sense of smell, it was useless. ¡°Use the strength?¡± Fang Yuan recalled that when he challenged the earth arcane realm previously, he had used speed control. When he challenged the thunder arcane realm, he had used coordinated attacks. When he challenge the wind arcane realm, he had relied on team battles. When he challenged the water arcane realm, he had relied on the secret that the uncle had told him. Then¡­ what was the method to crack the grass arcane realm? ¡°Do you still remember what I told you about sunlight? The grass-type pet beast is the strongest supporting pet beast. It has the advantages of healing, defense, control, and many other aspects. Even the water-type pet beast can¡¯t compare to it. However, the weakness of the grass-type pet beast is also very obvious. It is afraid of fire, but it likes sunlight. If it can block the sunlight, its combat strength will be reduced by at least half!¡± ¡°Sunlight?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the sky. The sunlight in the grass arcane realm seemed to be an inexhaustible resource. Moreover, in the arcane realm, there was no passage of time. It was impossible to delay until the sun went down. There were many ways to block the sunlight, but it was obvious that none of them could be used in the grass arcane realm. ¡°Stupid fellow, I¡¯m just giving you an example. Think about it yourself. There must be other flaws in the grass-type pet beast.¡± There seemed to be a characteristic of the demonized pet beast, which was that its attack power would increase along with the fluctuation of its emotions. As it could not hurt the vine lizard, the earth overlord flower had become restless, and purple flames also appeared on its body. ¡°Not good, quickly dodge!¡± Fang Yuan saw the overlord flower¡¯s small actions which was no longer simply throwing vines at its opponent, but¡­ Many giant seeds appeared behind it. It lit them up in its hand and threw them at the vine lizard like a bomb. The vine lizard quickly dodged. At where it was standing just now, a seed exploded, and the ground burned with flames. ¡°F*ck, a grass-type pet beast can still use fire attacks,¡± Fang Yuan said in surprise. Wasn¡¯t this the strategy he had just thought of? Using fire to attack grass. No, he had to think of a countermeasure. The vine lizard had no time to communicate with Fang Yuan now, because the earth overlord flower¡¯s attack frequency was getting faster and faster. One after another, the exploding seeds exploded around it, leaving many burning marks on the ground. If it were not for the humidity here, the flames would have lit up the entire grassland. Humidity¡­ ? Fang Yuan suddenly realized that the earth overlord flower could not move. As a plant, it needed to constantly absorb water and sunlight in order to maintain its fighting strength. Since it could not block the sun, then should he consider uprooting it? ¡°I have an idea, but it might be very dangerous,¡± Fang Yuan said to the vine lizard. ¡°Do you dare to approach it and try to attack its stem?¡± The vine lizard looked at the man-eating flower with a big mouth and said, ¡°Are you crazy? If I¡¯m bitten by it, I¡¯m dead.¡± ¡°Your tentacles are longer than its neck, right?¡± Fang Yuan said. The earth overlord flower mainly relied on the vines to pull food into its mouth. The vine lizard was not afraid of this. Secondly, it would pounce and bite the other party, but its range was limited. It could not bend to the ground at all. As long as the vine lizard used its overlord body to get close and take a few waves of attacks head-on, it would have a chance to win! Fang Yuan passed his idea to the vine lizard. The vine lizard thought for a while and replied, ¡°Not bad, it¡¯s worth a try!¡± ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll leave it to you. If you defeat it, I¡¯ll give you your favorite ancient book.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. Since the vine lizard agreed with his tactic, it meant that it was feasible! ¡°Deal. I want the Duma Epic.¡± The vine lizard dodged another attack from the exploding seeds and no longer dodged back, but charged towards the overlord flower. A lizard that liked to read books. Fang Yuan found it funny when he thought about it. Chapter 107 - Return Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio With a loud bang, the vine lizard used its tongue to pierce through the other party¡¯s stem. Juice in green juice was flowing out, the attack was effective. Not long after, the earth overlord flower seemed to have lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground, raising dust in the air. But because this was a grassland, the dust quickly disappeared. ¡°We did it.¡± Fang Yuan quickly ran to the side of the earth overlord flower. It was already dead. As he was afraid that the magic core in its body would affect the vine lizard, Fang Yuan personally went to search the body of the earth overlord flower. True enough, other than a platinum high-grade magic core, he also found another blue soul stone. [ Ding! Blue soul stone detected. Soul stone level: Level three ] [ Do you wish to proceed with100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a level three blue soul stone. ] [ Second, proceed with the 100 times increase in quality and obtain a level five blue soul stone. ] [ Third, proceed with the 100 times increase in effect and obtain a level three blue soul stone. The blue soul stone strengthens the pet and reduces the consumption of mental energy by 100 times. ] Putting the blue soul stone into his pocket, Fang Yuan thought to himself, there were already four soul stones now. Gathering five soul stones could form a soul skill. He still did not know what a soul skill looked like. As for the magic core, it was better to put them together. According to the vine lizard, when the magic core came into contact with pet beast, it would affect the their thoughts and become demonized. Such a dangerous tool therefore could only be carried by himself and he could not allow pet beasts to come into contact with them. There was less than an hour left in the arcane realm, so they should go back to grass fairy first. Seeing that Fang Yuan and the others had returned, grass fairy still looked indifferent, but she said, ¡°You guys killed the pet beast for the S-rank mission, right? I can feel that the power of demonization has been weakened.¡± ¡°Yes, but the time we can stay in the arcane realm is too short. Next time, I will definitely help you eliminate all the demonized pet beasts.¡± Grass fairy closed her eyes as if acknowledging Fang Yuan¡¯s answer. Then, she turned around and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Come, I will bring you to exchange for the materials you want.¡± ¡­ In the grass arcane realm, in the exchange shop, there were materials for all the grass-type pet beasts to upgrade to platinum grade. The vine lizard had already reached the peak of platinum grade, so there weren¡¯t any materials that it could use here, but the healing queen bee could. [ Scientific name: Spirit Healing Queen Bee. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Platinum low-grade ] [ Level: Beginner level three. ] [ Attributes: Insect, grass, Light. ] [ Positioning: Healing, support. ] [ Skills: 1. Group healing; 2. AOE spirit recovery; 3. Needle attack; 4. Bee control (Level two) ] Group healing skills were truly godly skills. The higher the battle level, the higher the chance of being injured in battle. Therefore, the higher the level of the battle, the higher the position of the wet nurse. As for the spirit recovery skill, this was the first time Fang Yuan heard of it. After checking the special effect, it showed that it was a skill to recover the pet¡¯s own mental power. With mental power, one could continuously release skills. This was also a supporting artifact. It was indeed a worthy trip to the grass arcane realm this time. Moreover, Fang Yuan now noticed another material ¡ª The power of three tails (grass) . Now, he had finally gathered all the materials for Ah Li¡¯s advancement. Fang Yuan tried to summon Ah Li, but he was blocked. In the grass arcane realm, he could not summon any pets other than grass-type pets. He felt a little puzzled and asked the grass fairy, ¡°Is there any pet beast that will evolve into other attributes after evolving?¡± The grass fairy nodded and answered, ¡°There are such pet beasts. These pet beasts are usually the descendants of elves. Elves are different from other creatures. They have the ability to control the elements, but they are limited by their own strength and can not fully display it. For example the spirit fox in your hand, it will evolve into different elements according to the materials you use.¡± Elven descendant¡­ ? Fang Yuan thought that he had made a big profit this time. This wind spirit fox was simply picked up for free, he didn¡¯t expect it to be so powerful. The last hour in the arcane realm ended. Fang Yuan disappeared in the green light, and the next moment, he had returned to Shanghai¡¯s University of Science and Technology. Wang Chenggong and Liu Xiwen were waiting for him. The 24 hours in the arcane realm was only an hour in the outside world. They were sitting in the guild hall, chatting and laughing when they saw Fang Yuan¡¯s figure appeared at the gate. ¡°Hi Dr. Wang, Director Liu.¡± Fang Yuan saw that they were waiting for him, he felt rather warm in his heart. After all, this matter had nothing to do with them. They were waiting here because they cared about him. Dr. Wang¡¯s eyes swept over the pendant on Fang Yuan¡¯s neck. There were already five certification stones inside. Although it was a level three certification, it was already very impressive for Fang Yuan¡¯s age. Even the heavenly secret pavilion examinee, there were many who had only participated in the level two certification. ¡°It seems to be very smooth.¡± Wang Chenggong walked to his side, and he said, ¡°Fang Yuan, the secret formula you gave me last time was really useful. Regarding the advancement of pet beasts, I have also made some new progress here. I have also received a huge amount of funding for scientific research. If you are free, we can have a good talk. It¡¯s a pity that you are not coming to our school. Otherwise, we can cooperate in our laboratory work.¡± ¡°Of course we can,¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Dr. Wang, can I borrow the lab now?¡± Wang Chenggong and Liu Xiwen looked at each other, not knowing what Fang Yuan was thinking. However, every time he used the lab, it would bring him a surprise. The smart Wang certainly wouldn¡¯t miss such an opportunity. ¡°Then what are we waiting for?¡± ¡­ Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at the laboratory. There was a platform inside the laboratory for testing the fighting strength of pets. Fang Yuan summoned the wind-thunder fox. The wind-thunder fox had now grown to be very big. Liu Xiwen said, ¡°This¡­ this is what I nurtured that time?¡± Fang Yuan nodded, admitting that it was the fox that Liu Xiwen had abandoned. However, Liu Xiwen didn¡¯t know what Fang Yuan was going to do. Next, Fang Yuan took out three evolution materials ¡ª The power of three tails ¡ª wind, thunder, and grass. These evolution materials seemed to be very valuable. The smart Wang quickly adjusted his glasses and walked to the materials to touch them. ¡°This one can feel the wind flowing, this one makes hand numb, and this one feels like grass¡­¡± Wang Chenggong touched the materials one by one and made an evaluation. As expected of a PhD, Fang Yuan thought to himself. He could actually guess the properties of the materials by touching them. However, Fang Yuan was not here to show off his treasures. He wanted to show Wang Chenggong the evolution of his pet beast. ¡°Dr. Wang, you have seen the evolution of the evolution potion. Now, let me show you another type of evolution.¡± ¡°Another type???¡± Wang Chenggong¡¯s eyes widened. He had studied pet beasts for more than ten years, but he felt like a child who didn¡¯t know anything in front of Fang Yuan. Chapter 108 - Three Tails Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The three materials resonated with the wind and thunder fox. The wind and thunder fox raised its head and let out a howl. Then, the materials turned into lights of different colors and surrounded it. The light was a little dazzling, making it hard for people to look directly at it. But it soon dissipated. Ah Li, which was Fang Yuan¡¯s wind and thunder fox, originally had light yellow fur. But under the blessing of the light of evolution, it had turned brown. The most magical thing was that its tail had turned from one to three. Without Fang Yuan¡¯s reminder, Wang Chenggong took out the measuring instrument and checked its attributes. [ Scientific name: Three-Tailed Spirit Fox. ] [ Bloodline: Spirit Fox. ] [ Quality: Platinum low-grade ] [ Attributes: Wind, thunder, grass, beast. ] [ Positioning: Attack/defense/control/support. ] [ Skills: 1. Charm claw attack, 2. Thunder gathering bullet, 3. Form change, 4. Thunder fire. ] Wang Chenggong immediately ran into the office and started to fiddle with the bookshelf. Finally, he took out a book and quickly ran back to the lab. ¡°I found it! Three-tailed spirit fox, it usually appears as a normal fox. But when it changes its form, its skills will also change.¡± Wang Chenggong read, ¡°But, this thunder fire seems to be a self-created skill? It¡¯s not recorded in the book.¡± ¡°Ah Li, let¡¯s try changing forms,¡± Fang Yuan said, and Ah Li let out a cheerful cry. Wind form ¡ª the whole body turned white, the agility attribute increased by 10 times, and the lightning gathering bullet skill also became a storm bullet Lightning form ¡ª the whole body turned golden, the mental power attribute increased by 10 times, and the lightning gathering bullet skill became a ¡°lightning strike skill¡± directly shooting lightning. There was no need to accumulate strength, but it consumed a lot of mental power. Even if it had increased by 10 times, in a battle which mental power was not replenished, it could only be used for about five times Grass form ¡ª the whole body turned green, all attributes increased by two times. It was no longer an attack skill, but a control-type binding skill. When summoned plants from underground to entangle the opponent, it would last for one minute, but the plants could be destroyed. When the time was up, the plants would automatically disappear. Wang Chenggong and Liu Xiwen looked at Ah Li in disbelief as it displayed his skills. This three-tailed ability alone was already a top-tier pet beast. Now that it was gathered on a pet beast, how to describe it? There was no better word than ¡®terrifying¡¯. However, Fang Yuan was very dissatisfied, because the [ thunder fire ] he obtained from the thunder arcane realm would only take effect when he used the lightning skill. The three-tailed thunder form was undoubtedly the strongest attack pet beast in Fang Yuan¡¯s current situation, but the consumption of his mental strength was too great, he could only use a few skills. He had to think of a way to strengthen Ah Li¡¯s mental power. But then again, although Ah Li was now at platinum low-grade, after switching forms, its strengthened attributes could actually compete with the platinum pinnacle grade vine lizard. He believed that when it evolved again and became six tails or nine tails, it would be his greatest trump card. 1 Wang Chenggong recorded the evolution details of the materials. Fang Yuan felt that it was very strange. The level of scientific research in this world was very mysterious. A top-notch doctor like them actually did not know anything about the evolution of pet beasts (the improvement of their grades). He really did not know what they were researching normally. But Fang Yuan actually had another thing that made him visit Wang Chenggong. He took out a gold intermediate-grade magic core and said, ¡°Dr. Wang, please be focused and take this.¡± ¡°This?¡± Wang Chenggong looked at Fang Yuan with a puzzled look. Seeing his serious expression, he knew it was not a joke. So he closed his eyes to focus his mind and then took the magic core. Even so, the moment he took the magic core, he felt a splitting headache and half-knelt on the ground. Liu Xiwen quickly rushed over to help Wang Chenggong up and asked, ¡°Dr. Wang, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Wang Chenggong finally recovered from this emotion. It seemed that after the headache, he was no longer be affected by this thing. He asked with a serious expression, ¡°Fang Yuan, what¡¯s this?¡± ¡°Recently, there have been a lot of demonized pet beasts, right? These were dropped from demonized pet beasts, but it seemed that not every demonized pet beast would drop such materials. According to a friend of mine, when a pet beast came into contact with this magic core, it would enter a berserk state, and at the same time, its strength would greatly increase, and it could even use power that did not belong to its own attribute.¡± Fang Yuan then told the full stories of his battle with the gale hound and the earth overlord flower. He knew many people in this world, but the only ones who were really smart and could help him were Zhao Ren and Wang Chenggong. ¡°Platinum Pinnacle¡­¡± Liu Xiwen swallowed his saliva. He knew Pan Rui because they used to do business together, but he really didn¡¯t know that Pan Rui actually kept a demonized gale hound which was actually able to fight a platinum pinnacle pet beast to a draw. These things were not bad, but this young man in front of him, who was not even 18 years old, already had a platinum pinnacle pet beast, and his strength was unimaginable. He believed that if the wind and thunder fox was in his hands, it would be impossible for it to evolve into three tails. Instead it would be a waste of Ah Li¡¯s fighting talent. So when Liu Xiwen saw that the wind and thunder fox had evolved into three tails, he was not jealous at all. He was glad that it had found a good master. Fang Yuan and Wang Chenggong did not know what he was thinking, but Wang Congming said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Can you leave this thing for me to do research? This is an excellent subject for research, perhaps it will change the plight of people who are constantly attacked by demonized pet beasts.¡± Wang Chenggong was worried that Fang Yuan might feel that the value of the magic core was too high and was reluctant to give it to him, therefore, he added, ¡°In the future, you can come to our laboratory and use the materials as you wish. If you still feel that it is not enough, I can give you a portion of the funding. This thing is really important to us.¡± Seeing that Dr. Wang was about to continue, Fang Yuan raised his hand and signaled him to stop talking. After all, he still had more than 10 magic cores in his backpack. He was only giving Dr. Wang the lowest grade magic core, so he did not feel distressed at all. As for Dr. Wang, it was as if he had obtained a treasure. He used a test tube to place the magic core properly, as if he was worried that it would be damaged. ¡°Fang Yuan, are you really not considering our University of Science and Technology? If you come to our school to study, your tuition and living expenses can be waived. My laboratory also welcomes you at any time.¡± For such a talent, even though Wang Chenggong wasn¡¯t in the school¡¯s management team, he still wanted to try to woo him. ¡°No, I want to go to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to challenge the trainer who is stronger than I, and explore the profound of the pet beast.¡± By this moment, Fang Yuan was sitting on Xiao Jin¡¯s body. He wanted to take the gryphon to the station and return to Chuxin Town. Looking at Fang Yuan¡¯s departing figure, Wang Chenggong said to Liu Xiwen, ¡°Now you know how foolish it was to make things difficult for Fang Yuan.¡± Liu Xiwen smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s true. If I had met such a trainer earlier, I wouldn¡¯t have gone to the black market to make a deal. Fortunately, he didn¡¯t treat me as an enemy, or maybe I¡¯m not worthy.¡± Chapter 109 - The Fire Arcane Realm After returning to Chuxin Town, he had a good night¡¯s sleep at home. Early in the next morning, he was woken up by his mother. Her mother asked, ¡°Fang Yuan, what was the cage that you sent home last time?¡± Fang Yuan was eating breakfast. After his mother reminded him, then only he remembered the steel cage and he told his mother about the battle with the pet hunter. ¡°You and your father really have the same characters.¡± His mother shook her head and said, ¡°Don¡¯t always make me worry. Those people do not have bottom line. They are dangerous criminals, understand? Next time, stay far away and call the police¡­¡± While his mother was nagging, Fang Yuan sneaked out of the house. With the gryphon, it was really convenient to move around in the city. In the past, he had to take the school bus. Now, he only took less than ten minutes to reach the school. This time, he was heading straight for the principal because he had already challenged five of the six great arcane realms, leaving only the fire arcane realm. ¡°You actually completed the five great arcane realm certification in less than a month?¡± The principal picked up Fang Yuan¡¯s pendant and looked at it. That¡¯s right, it was indeed the wind, thunder, earth, grass and water five elements certification. Moreover, looking at the stars on the pendant, it was a grade three arcane realm certification. But, was Fire Country¡¯s level three arcane realm certification open to high school students? Principal Yao Yuan felt that it was unbelievable. For the students of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, it was usually sufficient for them to obtain a level two arcane realm certification. Moreover, only level two arcane realms could be found all over the country. A level three arcane realm was considered a precious resource and it would not be open to outsiders at all. ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Fang yuan nodded and said, ¡°Principal, I am only lacking the fire arcane realm certification now. Do you know of any existence of fire arcane realm nearby?¡± The reason why the Fire Country was named as such was because the number and the strength of the fire type pet beasts in the country were far exceeding those of other countries. Almost every city had a fire arcane realm, which was why those admissions offices had forgotten about the fire arcane realm. But¡­most of them were only level one and level two fire arcane realm. Fang Yuan had already obtained the level three arcane realm certification, so¡­ ¡°On the mountain behind our school, there is a level two fire arcane realm, but you want to challenge a level three arcane realm¡­¡± The principal said, ¡°A level three fire arcane realm can only be found in the Holy Capital, which is the city where Heavenly Secret Pavilion is located.¡± The principal was not aware of the hundred-fold strengthening system, so he had some concerns. However, Fang Yuan replied, ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯ll just treat it as a practice session.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± He had no choice but to be biased towards an outstanding student like Fang Yuan. He took out a pen and wrote a letter of introduction. He handed it to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°The person guarding the fire arcane realm is my friend. You can just give him the letter.¡± ¡­ Three days later, they finally arrived at the final arcane realm ¡ª The fire arcane realm. After defeating this arcane realm, they would have to challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion. During this period of time, he had pieced together some information about Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Heavenly Secret Pavilion itself was also a arcane realm, but its level seemed to be different from the levels of the outside world. The only thing that could be confirmed was that its level was definitely above level four. This also meant that the platinum pet beast was only an ordinary pet beast in the pavilion. Every year, the students from Heavenly Secret Pavilion would be directly recruited by Fire Country¡¯s core departments, but their whereabouts were unknown. ¡°If there were those strong practitioners from Heavenly Secret Pavilion, then the calamity at the border back then would not have occurred.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. Even he, who was at the entry level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was able to resolve the magical beast invasion incident, how could those big shots who had challenged all sorts of arcane realms be inferior to him? Furthermore he was a newbie who did not even know the skills of a trainer. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan also felt that it was strange. But this problem would be solved as soon as he entered the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The most important thing now was to complete the mission and obtain the final certification of fire arcane realm. The fire arcane realm looked even more terrifying than other arcane realms, because one could feel the high temperature all the time. Burning flames could be seen everywhere in between the earth and the sky. Suddenly Fang Yuan thought of something and immediately turned his head around. ¡°As expected¡­¡± Fang Yuan saw a bald man in a monk¡¯s clothes. ¡°How did you know I am here?¡± The bald man was a little shocked. How could he be seen? ¡°You guardians like to stand behind the trainers and act mysterious.¡± Fang Yuan rolled his eyes at him. He was no longer a newbie who had just challenged the earth arcane realm. ¡°Well, you really have a sense of humor,¡± the bald man said. ¡°I am the guardian of the fire arcane realm. My name is Fire Monk.¡± Fang Yuan did not reply. He was waiting for the other party to give order. ¡°Since you have already obtained the certification of five arcane realms, I won¡¯t keep you in suspense anymore. Defeat me, and you can take away the certification of the fire arcane realm.¡± After saying that, the fire monk took a battle stance. ¡°Fight the guardian directly?¡± Fang Yuan widened his eyes in disbelief. ¡°Of course not with me, but with my pets.¡± The fire monk straightened his body. ¡°This is a habit of mine as a pugilist in the past. I¡¯m sorry.¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan followed the fire monk into the dojo. The temperature in the dojo was very high, but it was still relatively cool compared to the outside. In the dojo, there was a huge arena. It looked like the duel was going to take place on the arena. ¡°How many fire-type pet beasts do you have?¡± ¡°One.¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s get to the finals then.¡± The fire monk closed his eyes and then summoned a five-meter-tall rock that was covered in lava. The temperature in the surroundings increased tremendously. [ Scientific name: Lava Beast. ] [ Bloodline: Flame Demon. ] [ Quality: Platinum high-grade. ] [ Attributes: Fire, earth, beast. ] [ Positioning: Attack/defense. ] [ Skills: ??? ] Fang Yuan could not see the lava behemoth¡¯s skills, but he was not afraid at all. He summoned the gale hound. The battle between the gale hound and the vine lizard was still vivid in his mind. Fang Yuan also remembered its fighting style. The loyalty of the gale hound was originally very low, but after Fang Yuan repaired its damaged core (the power of the system), the loyalty of the gale hound had reached 100 points, and it could be controlled by Fang Yuan. ¡°Oh, a platinum high-grade gale hound is indeed a very powerful pet beast,¡± the fire monk praised. But then he changed the topic and said, ¡°It¡¯s good at fighting with wild beasts, but when facing a rock that can¡¯t be bitten, its combat strength will be reduced by at least half.¡± At this point, the fire monk even laughed, ¡°Little friend, you may be very lucky, but in the face of true strength, you can only lose.¡± Fang Yuan was also unwilling to be outdone, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. He said, ¡°Don¡¯t keep talking big. I fought all the way with the descendants of the divine beasts, so there¡¯s no such thing like relying on luck like you¡¯ve said.¡± ¡°Oh? If it wasn¡¯t relying on luck, how did you obtain a grade-five soul stone from a grade-three secret realm?¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan indeed revealed a shocked expression. In order to challenge the fire arcane realm, he had given the grade-five red soul stone on Ah Li¡¯s body, which increased its fire resistance, to the gale hound. From the outside, it could not be seen. This person, no, this guardian, was a man of substance. Chapter 110 - Lava Beast ¡°I don¡¯t know how you obtained it, but cheating is also a skill.¡± The fire monk saw that Fang Yuan did not directly answer his question, he continued to mock, ¡°If you can successfully cheat under my hands, I will consider you to have won. Are you ready?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no point talking so much.¡± Fang Yuan began to give the fierce gale hound an attack order. The fierce gale hound¡¯s attack style was actually very similar to Ah Li¡¯s. It was just that when Ah Li was a wind and thunder fox, its attack relied on thunder, while the fierce gale dog relied on fire. Wind was only a support skill to them. After activating the wind chasing skill, as the fierce gale hound¡¯s wind chasing skill had reached the intermediate level, so the speed increase percentage reached 300%. It moved around swiftly on the field like a phantom. ¡°I have to find the opponent¡¯s weakness.¡± Fang Yuan was carefully observing the attack style of the lava beast. The lava beast¡¯s speed was very slow. It threw its fists at the gale hound several times, but the gale hound was able to dodge it unscathed. ¡°That¡¯s it?¡± Seeing the lava beast waving its fists around in the air, but not hitting a single time, it seemed a little comical. Perhaps, fighting the lava beast did not require tactics at all, as long as it consumed its stamina and waited for it to leave the arena. It seemed to have seen through Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughts, the fire monk started taunting again. ¡°Do you think you can exhaust it until it leaves the arena? Your gale hound has been running, and the stamina it consumes is far greater. I advise you to give up on this idea, because it¡¯s not my soul contracted pet beast. Even if it doesn¡¯t have stamina, it won¡¯t leave the arena.¡± ¡°You can control it even if it¡¯s not a soul contracted pet beast?¡± Fang Yuan was a little curious. If what the fire monk said was true, then he was actually helping him. This was because wild pet beasts would not leave the arena because their physical strength was exhausted. Similarly, they would not be able to absorb their master¡¯s mental power to recover their own mental power and physical strength. The pet beasts that he had raised in the past were of low grades, so he would not be able to feel the depletion of mental power. With the arrival of the two platinum great godly pet beasts and the overall level of the gryphon legion, Fang Yuan could clearly feel that even if he did not fight every day, the depletion of his mental power was still extremely shocking. He also had to start thinking about the cultivation of his mental power. Otherwise, when the pet beasts advanced to diamonds, he would not be able to afford to raise them. However, these were all digressions. The most important thing now was to defeat the lava giant beast. ¡°Alright, the game ends here. You¡¯ve been playing for so long, it¡¯s time for you to take a break,¡± the fire monk said. ¡°Lava beast, use the earth fragment.¡± A red light flashed in the lava beast¡¯s eyes. An earth earring suddenly appeared in its hand, and it threw it out like a frisbee. With this speed, it was impossible to hit the gale hound! Just as Fang Yuan was thinking, he saw the frisbee chasing after the gale hound as if it had a tracking function. The gale hound¡¯s wind chasing skill ended, and its speed slowed down. After being hit by the earring, it flew out. However, it did not lose its balance. Instead, it adjusted its direction and landed on the ground. ¡°It actually has a tracking ability,¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. This was not good. The gale hound¡¯s advantage was its extremely fast speed. If the opponent had a tracking ability, it would be equivalent to dodging. ¡°It¡¯s not just tracking. The most important part of this skill is to steal the opponent¡¯s movement speed,¡± the fire monk explained. ¡°This¡­¡± Fang Yuan could not help but think of a game. The Lava Behemoth also had a similar ability. Sure enough, after the hit, the lava beast¡¯s speed increased significantly, but the gale hound¡¯s speed slowed down. This time, the lava beast¡¯s iron fist hit the gale hound¡¯s back, smashing it into the ground. Fortunately, the rank of the gale hound was on par with the lava giant beast. Although its defense was not as strong as the vine lizard, it was still much stronger than the other pet beasts. After taking a solid punch, it was not seriously injured. Fang Yuan began to recall the battle between the gale hound and the vine lizard. At that time, the gale hound was in a demonized state, so its speed and strength were much faster than now. If the gale hound¡¯s speed was 3,000 at that time, it would only be 2,000 now. After the lava beast¡¯s deceleration, its speed should only be around 1,500 now. Therefore, in the arena, the gale hound did not look as agile as the lava beast, dodging the lava beast¡¯s attacks was extremely difficult. The gale hound¡¯s positioning was to fight and be an assassin. It was not like the vine lizard that could take damage head-on. Fang Yuan was a little anxious. Even if he put on the tactical ring now, he would not be able to turn the situation around. ¡°Calm down, calm down.¡± While Fang Yuan was anxious, he remembered what the vine lizard had told him in the grass arcane realm. He had to know how to use the advantage of his pet beast to attack the opponent¡¯s disadvantage. The lava beast was undoubtedly a pet beast with extremely high defense. Its entire body was still burning with flames. What was its weakness? The fire monk saw that the gale hound was getting more and more seriously injured in the battle, a disappointed expression appeared on his face. Then, he gave an order, ¡°Lava Beast, use Earth tremor. End the battle!¡± The lava beast received the order and stopped waving its fists wildly. Instead, it stood on the spot like a king kong seemingly preparing to use its ultimate move. ¡°Wait, isn¡¯t this the arcane realm of fire? Why does it always use an earth-type skill?¡± Fang Yuan suddenly realized the problem, although its entire body was burning with flames, it seemed like it had never used fire attacks. Its attack style was also based on physics. The earth tremor that it was going to use next also sounded like an earth-type skill. Could it be that fire was just a support to it? or could it be¡­ Fang Yuan thought of a possibility and shouted to the gale hound, ¡°Gale Hound, use flame spit to attack the lava on its chest.¡± Hearing this, the fire monk looked at Fang Yuan in shock and thought, ¡°This brat, he saw through the flaw of the lava beast so quickly?¡± The reason why it was called the lava beast was because its entire body was covered in lava and emitted huge flames. However, its essence was still rock. If the temperature was too high, it would also be melted. Lava was only skin. If the attack penetrated through the lava and the real rock layer, the lava beast would be burned alive by its own lava. This was also the reason why lava beasts were rare. They had no way to reproduce and could only rely on volcanic eruptions to produce their offspring. It was a very rare creature. The lava beast took a horse stance and punched the ground with both fists. A powerful shockwave mixed with heat waves spread toward the guild hall. ¡°Sh*t!¡± Fang Yuan saw the compressed air rushing towards him with flames. He felt that he was doomed. The fire monk suddenly appeared in front of him, and the shockwave was cut off. However, the fierce gale hound was not as lucky. The shockwave with flames swept it into the air! This time, it must have been seriously injured! Chapter 111 - Defeat the Lava Beast Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The smell of blood filled the air, and Fang Yuan was extremely shocked deep inside. ¡°It seems like the victor has been decided. Fang Yuan, your strength is still a little lacking,¡± the fire monk said in a magnetic voice. Lost? Indeed, in the eyes of others, the gale hound would definitely die or be crippled after being hit by this attack. However, the gale hound was already equipped with a red soul stone before the start of the match, which could reduce the fire damage it received by 20% . It was impossible for the shockwave to kill the gale hound in one hit. This was not the first time Fang Yuan had faced such a situation. As long as the gale hound was still connected to his soul, he still had a chance to turn the tables. ¡°Gale Hound, can you hear my voice?¡± Although it was faint, Fang Yuan heard a soft response. ¡°After the lava beast used its killing move, it is now in a weakened state. As long as you can use flame spray to attack its core, you will definitely win!¡± Fang Yuan encouraged the gale hound. Unfortunately, it was in a competition and he could not directly use potions on his pet beast. Otherwise¡­ ¡°I see¡­¡± the fire monk turned around and looked at Fang Yuan, then at the gale hound that was staggering up on the field. On one hand, pets relied on their own abilities to fight. On the other hand, they also relied on the mental strength of the trainer. As long as the trainer could provide a steady stream of mental strength, as long as the pets on the field didn¡¯t die, they could continue to display their fighting strength. However, just as the gale hound was about to escape, a strange movement occurred again! ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± The fire monk looked at the lava beast in front of him and felt a strange feeling. After it had released the earthquake, it was standing on the stage in a state of exhaustion. The flames on its body were also fading But now, it was surrounded by a ball of purple flames! It even straightened its body, ready to attack again. Before Fang Yuan spoke, the fire monk had begun to understand the situation. Demonization! ¡°Fire Monk, can you subdue the lava beast now?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°This lava beast was originally the guardian pet of this arcane realm, not my soul pet. The connection between me and it has been torn, and I have no way to control it now.¡± ¡°Then can you stop it? In its current state, the gale hound is no match for the demonized lava beast.¡± One must understand that when the demonized gale hound entered the arena, its target combat strength was a platinum-pinnacle vine lizard. Now, the demonized lava beast was probably above platinum-pinnacle. It could not defeat it just now, and it did not dare to imagine the situation after the demonization. The gale hound stood up, but its face was full of indifference, and it had the aura of a hero ready to die. ¡°Hey, Gale Hound, can your body take it?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s sharp gaze stared at the gale hound. Its body seemed to be trembling, and no one knew how its injuries were. If it was a lower level pet beast, facing the pressure of the demonized lava beast, it probably wouldn¡¯t dare to stand up. The gale hound seemed to turn around and smile. ¡°Although I can¡¯t subdue the demonized lava beast, I can restore the gale hound¡¯s stamina and condition.¡± ¡°Really? Then hurry up.¡± ¡°Yes, you can! But if he fights with the demonized lava beast, he will still be courting death!¡± As he said this, the atmosphere instantly became extremely oppressive. ¡°The gale hound can defeat it,¡± Fang Yuan said not long after. He silently took out a ring from his backpack and wore it on his hand. This was the first time he had truly used this ring. The fire monk at the side could not care too much about it. If the lava beast went berserk, who knew what would happen to this arcane realm. Even if the gale hound could not defeat it, there was no better way. So what if it was a trainer with such potential? It would still die in the arcane realm trial. The fire monk¡¯s eyes were uncertain. He hoped that Fang Yuan could win, but under the current circumstances, it was impossible to win. The eyes of the demonized lava beast turned cold. It stood up again, looking even more ferocious than before. It was going to make a move, at the next moment! But at this moment, a hound¡¯s cry sounded. The gale dog raised its head. The power of flames was accumulating in its chest. ¡°Gale Hound, all hope is in this strike of yours.¡± Just now, the fire monk had used his own power to heal the gale hound. It had now returned to its normal state. What was even stranger was that it felt that its power had increased a little. ¡°In the fire arcane realm, your strength has also been strengthened. I¡¯ve been thinking about how to find the opponent¡¯s weakness, but I forgot to strengthen your skill.¡± The fire monk had a puzzled look on his face. When he turned around, Fang Yuan¡¯s expression was extremely grave. ¡°Use flame spitting to attack the lava on its chest!¡± Fang Yuan gave the order. Almost at the same time, a flame as thick as a person shot out. The demonized lava beast was preparing to use its fist to hit the floor. When it saw the flame coming, it gave up on using its ultimate skill and used its hands to block it. True enough, its chest was its weakness. The beast-type pet beast had a special characteristic, which was attacking the throat and the neck of its enemies. Therefore the feeling of the lava beast¡¯s defense was very strong. In actual fact, if it found the right weakness, the attack could penetrate it in an instant. After all, lava was essentially just fluid silicate, it did not have any defense at all! It was a gamble! The gale hound¡¯s flame was initially blocked by the lava beast¡¯s hands, but soon, the lava beast¡¯s hands could not hold on any longer. It used one hand to block the flames, and with the other hand, it picked up a stone ring and threw it at the gale hound. ¡°Gale Hound, take this attack head on.¡± Fang Yuan did not order it to use the wind chasing skill or dodge, because this move would automatically track. He had already seen it before. At this moment, the fire monk was silent! This move of the lava beast actually had a very big weakness. It was used to track moving units, just like a heat-seeking missile. If the opponent did not move, or if the temperature of the body was lowered to the same level as the environment, the automatic tracking function would be lost. Obviously, in a defensive stance, the hit rate of the lava beast¡¯s throw was extremely low. Seeing the stone ring beside the gale hound, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t understand what was going on either. He understood that the other party would steal his movement speed, so if he dodged rashly, the stolen movement speed would be even higher. It was better to just stand still. He had hit the jackpot. As he had scattered its energy, now was a good time to win. The gale hound mustered all of its strength, and the flame beam became even thicker. The lava beast stretched out its two hands to block it, but as the temperature continued to rise, the rocks under its skin gradually turned into lava. The flames penetrated the lava, its palms, and even its entire body! It succeeded! Chapter 112 - Pet Beast Space The current situation was very obvious. As the flames penetrated the lava beast, it seemed to have lost its strength. It knelt on the ground and then turned into ashes. The fire monk looked at Fang Yuan in a daze. This kid could actually unleash the strength of a pet beast. There must be another reason behind this! However, he could not find the specific reason, because no matter how he looked at it, Fang Yuan did not do anything to cheat. ¡°Fang Yuan, although I helped you treat the gale hound this time, there was a reason for it, so I won¡¯t argue with you. You defeated the lava beast. This is the certification for your fire arcane realm.¡± A piece of paper suddenly appeared in the fire monk¡¯s hand, the paper was still burning, but it had not burned up. Fang Yuan took the paper, and then the it turned into the last jade on the pendant. ¡°Now that you have collected the certification of all the six arcane realms, you can go and take the entrance exam of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It¡¯s not as peaceful and simple as arcane realm¡­¡± the fire monk seemed to have something to say, but his mouth moved a few times, and in the end he did not say a word. ¡°Peaceful¡­¡± Fang Yuan glanced at the gale hound in the arena. It was extremely tired and kept panting. The 30 seconds of flame spitting just now seemed to have consumed all of its mental strength. The gale hound¡¯s flame spitting was precisely such a skill. The longer it was used, the stronger the mental strength consumed, but the damage would continue to decrease. The correct usage should be to clear monsters in an area, not to use it as a single-target finishing skill. However, Fang Yuan himself was not a person who was constrained by the battle style. As long as he could win, it would be fine. The lava beast¡¯s defense was indeed very strong, but its continuous defense was very weak. It just happened to offset the damage reduction effect of the gale hound¡¯s continuous spitting. Fang Yuan thought of something and immediately rushed up to the arena, searching through the lava beast¡¯s ashes. The magic core was gone, but he found a soul stone. [ Ding! Brown soul stone detected. Soul stone level: Level three. ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a level three brown soul stone. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and obtain a level five brown soul stone. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect and obtain a level three brown soul stone. Brown soul stone increases the pet¡¯s defense by 100 times. ] With this, Fang Yuan had collected five soul stones. He had heard that five soul stones with different attributes could combine different skills. After he went out, he had to find a place to try it out. There was still a lot of time left, but Fang Yuan was not in the mood to stay in the fire arcane realm anymore. However, the fire monk seemed to have something to say. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you know another function of the arcane realm certification?¡± ¡°Another function?¡± Fang Yuan was a little curious. In fact, other than knowing that the certification would record the information of the corresponding pet beasts, he had no idea about the other functions. ¡°Do you want to go and see your pet beasts?¡± ??? Fang Yuan¡¯s face was full of doubt. ¡°Put your hand on the pendant and close your eyes.¡± Fang Yuan did as he said, and then¡­ When he opened his eyes, he was in a castle-like building. The gryphon legion were flying. Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin seemed to have seen Fang Yuan and landed happily. Fang Yuan gently stroked their heads, making them feel very comfortable. Meanwhile, the gale hound and the shadow wolf were running over from afar. Then, it was the spirit healing bee queen, Ah Li, and Pick¡­ ¡°This is?¡± ¡°This is your pet space,¡± a voice that came out of nowhere replied to Fang Yuan. It sounded a little like the voice of the system. ¡°What is it used for?¡± Fang Yuan continued to ask. ¡°All the pet beasts you have will live in this world. In this world, their food is your mental strength. After you have the pendant, you can enter and leave this world at any time. You can arrange training for them or let them work.¡± ¡°Work?¡± ¡°Try to communicate with the three-tailed spirit fox.¡± Fang Yuan reached out his hand. The three-tailed spirit Fox seemed to feel his call and sat down in front of Fang Yuan. At this moment, several options appeared in front of Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes. A. Work B. Cultivation C. Mind adjustment D. Advancement Fang Yuan chose A and then saw a panel. A. Farming (requires seeds) B. Construction C. Other jobs Farming? However, when Fang Yuan chose farming, it showed that there were no seeds and he could not plant anything. Then, he chose construction and found that there were all kinds of buildings, such as: [ Beast pen ] ¡ª a house for beast-type pets to speed up the recovery of injuries [ Wooden stake ] ¡ª a live target that could be attacked to increase exp [ Others ]n(no drawings for now) Fang Yuan felt that this world was more and more incredible. He could actually build things in the space. It seemed that in the future, as long as he could get enough seeds and drawings, he could develop his own pet kingdom here. He was a little excited when he thought about it. But now, there was more important thing, which was to go to the castle and have a look. Currently, the castle only had five floors open. Each floor had a list of the pet beasts that Fang Yuan had fought before. It seemed that they were divided according to their levels. Currently, Fang Yuan had only defeated a platinum-level pet beast, so he could only go to the fifth floor. The few huge stone statues on the fifth floor were shockingly S-rank monsters in the arcane realm, such as the rattlesnake, the lava beast, and the mountain giant. Was this just a place for display? At this moment, the voice sounded again. ¡°When you defeat a pet beast, you will place its statue here. However, as you defeat it more frequent, the effect you will have on it will be more obvious. Try touch the army ant¡¯s statue.¡± The army ant had been taught a lesson by Fang Yuan¡¯s gryphon legion. He went to the fourth floor, found the army ant, and put his hand on it. [ Kill count: 500; proficiency: 300. All your pet beasts¡¯ damage to the army ant has increased by 300% . ] This surprised Fang Yuan. The army ant¡¯s damage had increased by three times. It meant that a pet beast above gold low-grade could easily kill the army ant. Moreover, when he touched the statue, there was a notification: [ Do you want to challenge the army ant guardian? ] Army ant guardian? Logically speaking, the army ant should not be strong, so he could challenge it and give it a try. ¡°Challenge!¡± Fang Yuan did not hesitate to choose the challenge option, but then a notification came: Already in the arcane realm, unable to challenge the army ant guardian arcane realm. Please try again after leaving the arcane realm¡­ Alright. Fang Yuan pondered for a moment. It was fine. Anyway, there was still some time before the exam, so he wanted to see what was so magical about this space. Chapter 113 - The Use of Space Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After leaving the fire arcane realm, Fang Yuan did not return to school immediately. Instead, he returned home. Almost as soon as he reached home, he returned to the pet beast space. There were still many things that he needed to explore here. The gryphon legion was now the main force of the space construction. One by one they had moved branches from somewhere unknown to build their nests. As for the other pet beasts, Fang Yuan had chosen to let them cultivate. Cultivation would continuously gain them experience points, so that they did not need to fight all the time to gain experience points. Moreover, as the level of the training ground increased, their ability to comprehend new skills would also increase. This time, Fang Yuan had more important matters to attend to. He placed the five soul stones on the ground. Now, he already had five soul stones of different colors. They were: Red Soul Stone: 500 points increase in HP. White Soul Stone: 500 points increase in stamina. Green Soul Stone: 500 points increase in rage limit. Blue Soul Stone: 50% reduction in mental power consumption. Brown Soul Stone: 500 points increase in defense. They were all level five soul stones. Fang Yuan did not know how what the highest level was, but spirit stone resonance required spirit stones of the same level. In other words, a pet beast needed to equip five soul stones at the same time in order to activate its special attributes. Fang Yuan thought for a long time and finally chose Ah Li. ¡°Ah Li, come here.¡± As Fang Yuan summoned, Ah Li ran over like a puppy. In its eyes, the training was too tiring. ¡°Come, try bring these five soul stones with you.¡± Although Ah Li was reluctant, it did it still. The soul stones emitted lights of different colors and then gathered on Ah Li¡¯s body. After which the soul stones disappeared. Pet beasts and trainers had different equipment. Each pet beast could equip itself with different items, mainly depending on its own attack style. However, soul stones were tools that all pet beasts could equip. The only drawback was that after equipping with soul stones, they could not have other types of equipment. Moreover, they could only equip with five stones. When Ah Li was equipping with the five soul stones, Fang Yuan opened Ah Li¡¯s attribute panel and saw a line of words: [ Special attribute (activated)] [ Soul stone array: Imperial. ] [ Direct damage from fire, water, wind, grass, and earth reduced by 50% . The effect will overlay with the soul stones¡¯ own attributes. ] [ Activated skill: elemental incarnation. ] [ Lasts for 30 seconds. During this period, all damage received from fire, water, wind, grass, and earth will cause the same amount of effect to heal the original damage. Beyond the healing effect, after the skill ends, it will be converted into an additional damage bonus for the next attack. ] Seeing this skill, Fang Yuan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. This was too much of a bug. If he had this soul stone just now, as long as the gale hound activated its [ elemental incarnation ] skill, so what if the lava beast did another earthquake? Not only would the gale hound not receive any damage, but it would also use its damage to directly destroy its final barrier. However, the cooling off period of this skill was very long. It actually needed a month to cool off, so it had to be used carefully. The almost invincible for 30 seconds, if used well, it would be a godly skill that could turn defeat into victory. This time, Fang Yuan came to the space to see the effects of the soul stones. On the other hand, he came to challenge the monster arcane realm. However, Fang Yuan was a cautious person. Since he wanted to challenge the unknown arcane realm, he would definitely start with the one he was confident of. He first chose a bronze-grade pet beast arcane realm to challenge. He also saw the so-called pet beast guardian. In fact, it had the same attributes as a demonized pet beast. If he defeated it, he would receive a random reward. For example, if he defeated a bronze low-grade engineer queen bee, he would receive a [ honey bee nest ] blueprint. [ Ding! Detected (Blueprint: Honey Bee Nest), blueprint level: Bronze low-grade ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain a bronze low-grade honey bee nest blueprint. The speed of ordinary bees will be doubled. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in the quality and obtain the silver intermediate-grade honey bee nest blueprint. The speed of elite bees will be doubled. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in the effect and obtain the bronze low-grade honey bee nest blueprint. The speed of ordinary bees will be increased by 100 times. ] Fang Yuan did not know about the use of the blueprint yet, so he decided to choose the last option on effect which looked even more exaggerating than the silver blueprint. Now that he had already known about the pet beast guardian, he was not in a hurry to challenge it. He then looked for the gryphon legion and let them build the honey bee nest first. In less than half an hour, a huge honey bee nest had been built. Fang Yuan let the gryphons go back to work and walked closer to the nest to take a look. He could see the effect of the honey bee nest in front of him. [ Building: Honey bee nest. ] [ Level: Bronze low-grade. ] [ Effect: Every 10(1) days, an engineer bee that does not consume mental power will be obtained. The engineer bee will consume its own vitality and automatically upgrade the buildings it owns (except for the main castle) . ] It turned out that the blueprint was obtained through this method. It seemed that by challenging different pet beast guardians, different buildings could be obtained. This way, this space could be built. Fang Yuan defeated all the pet beast guardians from bronze to silver in one breath. It seemed that it did not consume any physical strength. In addition to all kinds of blueprints, there were also seeds of spiritual herbs. This way, he no longer needed to go to the Iron Castle Military Academy. His own space could also grow spiritual herbs of higher quality. However, spiritual herbs were not very valuable to Fang Yuan now. As for the blueprints, Fang Yuan gradually realized that most of them were used to enhance the special abilities of the corresponding pet beasts. He did not have any bronze or silver pet beasts now, and the rewards were also very low. Therefore, Fang Yuan decided to directly challenge the [ Iron Gryphon Guardian ] . This gold high-grade pet beast, whose strength was around platinum intermediate-grade after being demonized, was definitely no match for Fang Yuan¡¯s bunch of platinum high-grade pet beasts. He should have obtained the iron gryphon statue, but because Fang Yuan had the hundred times increase system, he directly obtained: [ Steel gryphon statue. ] [ Level: Platinum high-grade. ] [ Effect: Increases all gryphons¡¯ defense power by 50% . ] This effect was very buggy, especially when Fang Yuan controlled the gryphon legion to fight. With the help of the tactical ring, even if Fang Yuan did not do anything, he would need a platinum high-grade pet beast to break through the gryphon legion¡¯s defense line. The creatures of the same level probably could not even break through the defense. However, Fang Yuan himself was primarily an explorer. This time, he finally figured out how to play with the space. No wonder the Heavenly Secret Pavilion required the certification of the six major arcane realms. Without the certification, their combat strength would be significantly lower than others, and their growth would also be far behind. The arcane realm certification was so terrifying. Moreover, this was only the certification of a level three arcane realm. When they graduated from university, what would challenging the level four arcane realm certification be like? Chapter 114 - New in Heavenly Secret Pavilion ¡°Principal, I have already obtained the certification of the six great arcane realms,¡± Fang Yuan said calmly as he stood in front of the principal. The principal¡¯s jaw almost dropped. He was here the day before yesterday, and he had thought that he would have to prepare for a long time. He did not expect Fang Yuan to return in less than two days. If not for the pendant around his neck, the principal would have thought that he was bragging. ¡°What should we do next?¡± Fang Yuan asked. He only cared about how to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. If he had to prepare for the theoretical exam now, he could only find a level four ordinary arcane realm to study hard because there was far not enough time. It was now only two weeks before the college entrance exam. The principal said, ¡°Pack your luggage and prepare to go to Holy Capital. The Heavenly Secret Pavilion doesn¡¯t need an exam. As long as you have the certification pendant, you can enter their arcane realm.¡± ¡°Alright. Principal, can you tell me more about Heavenly Secret Pavilion? I¡¯m worried that I won¡¯t be admitted.¡± ¡°If I knew, I wouldn¡¯t be the principal here. You¡¯ve already grown up, so you¡¯ll have to rely on yourself for the rest. Our school will cover all the bus tickets and travel expenses. You must be admitted to Heavenly Secret Pavilion!¡± The principal said as he placed his hand on Fang Yuan¡¯s shoulder. ¡­ There were still 12 days before the college entrance exam. The students were still preparing for the theoretical exams in the classroom, but Fang Yuan was sitting alone in a coffee shop in Holy Capital. There were many arcane realms in Holy Capital, but the most famous was undoubtedly Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Heavenly Secret Pavilion was both a school and a arcane realm. The most mysterious thing was that, as a level four arcane realm, the flow of time in Heavenly Secret Pavilion was actually the same as in the outside world. This was something that all the trainers could not understand. However, it was also because of this that it was was even more mysterious. After all, there was a time limit for other arcane realms. At Heavenly Secret Pavilion, once admitted, they could stay there forever. It was said that platinum-grade pet beasts were only the lowest grade pet beasts in the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. There were even legendary diamond and star glory pet beasts in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. However, because Heavenly Secret Pavilion was too low-key and their actions were mysterious, no one had ever seen a student from Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Except once a group of thieves who used platinum grade pet beasts to rob had met a student from Heavenly Secret Pavilion. That student¡¯s expression did not change at all and in less than a minute, he had beaten off everyone. The thieves did not even know how they lost, they were knocked unconscious and then sent to prison. That was only a young man in his twenties¡­ Hearing everyone¡¯s description which had become more and more mysterious, Fang Yuan became even more interested in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. One-on-one combat was actually not difficult. Fang Yuan was extremely good at this kind of battle. However, to be able to kill 100 platinum pet beasts within a minute, even a vine lizard probably could not do it. It should be a pet beast with a very strong AOE skill. However, AOE skills usually meant that the damage was not serious, so¡­ No matter how one thought about it, this person was also a very powerful existence. At the very least, it should be a diamond pet beast. Fang Yuan had already set his goals for this year. His next goal was to obtain a diamond pet beast, it was fine even if it was low-grade. The next was to learn the trainer skill. The battle with Du Lei was still vivid in his mind, a pet beast with a skill buff was more powerful than a normal pet. Fang Yuan stood up and decided to go to Heavenly Secret Pavilion for the challenge. He had rested enough. This coffee shop was right in front of the obelisk where Heavenly Secret Pavilion was located. Seeing the young man walking toward the obelisk, the people in the coffee shop all stopped moving at the same time¡­ ¡°What is he doing?¡± ¡°He is not going to Heavenly Secret Pavilion, right?¡± ¡°Oh my God, there are actually so many people entering Heavenly Secret Pavilion this year! Has Heavenly Secret Pavilion expanded its recruitment?¡± The passersby whispered to each other. Many people even followed Fang Yuan to the obelisk. ¡°He doesn¡¯t have a pass at all.¡± ¡°Hey, I knew it. Looking at his clothes, he¡¯s too different from those who entered Heavenly Secret Pavilion before. He¡¯s just a tourist, right?¡± ¡°Kid, don¡¯t overestimate yourself. Not everyone can enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± The closer Fang Yuan got to Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the more obvious the summoning of the pendant was. However, it didn¡¯t tell him what to do next. Lifting the pendant, nothing happened. No one told Fang Yuan how to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion. At this moment, an audience from the crowd laughed and said, ¡°Kid, if you want to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion, you need to have the arcane realm certification and show your strongest pet beast. Only people recognized by Heavenly Secret Pavilion will get to enter.¡± So that was the case. Fang Yuan closed his eyes and a huge vine lizard appeared in front of him. This time, the pendant emitted a dazzling light and started to flicker. ¡°He¡­ he really opened the arcane realm!¡± ¡°What kind of pet is that? A huge lizard?¡± ¡°Its level is above platinum! My instrument can not measure its level at all. What I have is a gold high-grade pet!¡± ¡­ The voices of the crowd began to fade away. Fang Yuan was also blinded by the dazzling light¡­ When he opened his eyes, he had already arrived at a magical place. If one were to compare it with the memories of his previous life, this place was a bit like Hogwarts. He stood on a grassland, eagles were soaring in the sky, bees and butterflies were flying among the flowers¡­ There was a long stone bridge in front of him. At the end of the bridge, there was a school. There were three words above the gate: Heavenly Secret Pavilion! Was this the legendary Heavenly Secret Pavilion? Fang Yuan was still a little excited because this meant that he had taken a step toward a higher realm. However, this step was not very smooth. As soon as he stepped on the bridge, the vine lizard wrapped around Fang Yuan and threw him aside. That was because, right where he was standing just now, there was an iron golem falling from the sky. Fang Yuan had almost all the data of his pet beasts below platinum-level, but this iron golem was not one of them. Could it be a pet beast above diamond-level? This iron golem was five meters long, almost comparable to the lava beast. It was a merciless attack machine. After landing, it immediately used the impact of the landing to adjust its direction and charged towards the vine lizard. The vine lizard used the vines to encircle it, but the iron golem was very strong and almost tore the vines apart. The vine lizard had no choice but to let go of its opponent. The iron golem then punched the vine lizard¡¯s head, causing it to feel dizzy. The vine lizard had a super armor skill, so it could not be knocked down or moved, but that did not mean that it would not be stunned. At this moment, the status bar of the vine lizard displayed: [ stun ] ¡ª Unable to attack or actively defend. Lasts for 20 seconds. This iron golem was too terrifying. The demonized gale hound and the earth overlord flower could not break the defense of the vine lizard, yet it was stunned by one strike of the iron golem. However, Fang Yuan was not a pushover. This was not the first time he challenged someone of a higher level¡­ The best way to deal with metal was to use lightning strikes. Before the iron golem launched another attack, Ah Li, whose entire body was shining with golden light, appeared like a thunder beast descending. Chapter 115 - : Trap Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Ah Li had already advanced to platinum intermediate grade. With its soul stones, equipment, and attributes, it was already on par with a platinum pinnacle pet beast. After transforming into its thunder form, Ah Li¡¯s entire body emitted a golden light. Its skill had also changed from thunder summoning bullet to lightning spell. Lightning shot out from its mouth, and the iron golem had no time to react. Lightning had a enhanced effect on iron. When the lightning hit the iron golem, flames began to appear on the iron golem¡¯s body. This was Ah Li¡¯s thunder and fire attributes. However, the iron golem did not seem to have any sense of pain or fear. Even though its body was burning with flames, it did not stop its attack. It turned around and removed the palm in its hand, revealing the¡­ Submachine gun! Da da da da! Continuous gunshots rang out. Fortunately, the target of the bullets was Ah Li. Ah Li was like dancing as it easily dodged the bullets. However, Fang Yuan had no choice but to change his current position. He also had to dodge the stray bullets. Fang Yuan did not know how powerful this thing was. However, after seeing the iron golem¡¯s previous attack, he believed that this bullet would not be as gentle as a small fist pounding on the chest. Although Ah Li¡¯s strength was not ordinary, under such an intensive attack from the iron golem, it would lose its ability to fight if it kept dodging. At the same time, Fang Yuan hid behind a huge rock and said to Ah Li, ¡°Ah Li, find a way to get close to the iron golem. I¡¯ll use Xiao Jin to cover for you.¡± At this point, Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin. This was his pet beast with the strongest defense. Originally, it was on par with the vine lizard, but with the statue¡¯s boost, Xiao Jin¡¯s defense became the strongest among Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beasts. After Xiao Jin came out, the first thing it did was activating petrified skin. It stared at the iron golem and realized that it was not going to fall for this trick. The iron golem seemed to have sensed that the gryphon was making a move on him and turned its gaze to Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin took the opportunity to fly into the air, and the opponent¡¯s bullets swept over like Gatling gun bullets. It used its wings to block, and a bullet hole appeared on its wings. Fortunately, Xiao Jin had steel skin, so the bullets did not sink in or pierce through. However, Fang Yuan knew that it was injured. Without Fang Yuan¡¯s command, Xiao Jin knew that it would definitely not be able to take the damage head-on, so it pulled away. It had already achieved its goal. Ah Li switched to its wind form and rushed in front of the iron golem at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to discern. Then, it scratched the iron golem¡¯s face with its claws. This claw contained wind-type power, but it did not seem to have any obvious effect when it hit the iron golem. ¡°There¡¯s actually such a powerful pet beast.¡± The three pet beasts on the field could be said to be Fang Yuan¡¯s strongest fighting strength. If they couldn¡¯t hurt the iron golem even if they joined hands, then¡­ Then they would all die here. After Ah Li¡¯s close-range attack on the iron golem, the iron golem switched back to close-range mode. It punched left and right, and the air was distorted by the wind. Fortunately, Ah Li was fast, and because it was a wind-type pet beast, it was not hurt by the punch. The vine lizard also woke up from its dizziness now. ¡°Fang Yuan, the one in front of us is not a pet beast.¡± ¡°What?¡± Fang Yuan heard the vine lizard¡¯s answer and was a bit surprised, ¡°If this golem is not a pet beast, then what is it?¡± ¡°There is a connection between pet beasts. Even if we stand on the opposite side, we can sense each other¡¯s power. And this iron golem is a ruthless war machine. It seems to be a kind of trap.¡± ¡°Trap?¡± Fang Yuan began to recall when he was attacked by the iron golem. It seemed to be the moment he stepped on the bridge. He looked at the stone slab in front of the bridge, and true enough, it had caved in. ¡°Is this the way to enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± Fang Yuan saw the trap, and a bold idea emerged in his heart. Destroy the switch! Although this idea was very whimsical, there seemed to be no better way now. The burning effect caused by Ah Li¡¯s lightning spell was also fading, and the iron golem seemed to have become faster. ¡°Ah Li, do you see the stone slabs by the bridge?¡± Fang Yuan summoned Ah Li, who was currently jumping around the iron golem. Ah Li was fully focused on the battle, and it was also looking for the iron golem¡¯s weakness. Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s summon, Ah Li jumped back a step. When the iron golem saw that Ah Li had left its attack range, it raised its gun again and prepared to shoot. Ah Li looked at the front of the bridge. There were three stone bricks, and indeed one of them had a deep dent. The iron puppet started shooting again. Just as Ah Li was distracted, the attack came like a storm. Xiao Jin immediately disregarded its own safety and rolled up its wings in front. Bullet after bullet hit Xiao Jin¡¯s wings, causing many wounds. ¡°D*mn it.¡± Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan¡¯s first thought was to summon the spirit healing queen bee to heal Xiao Jin. ¡°Don¡¯t do useless things. The most important thing now is to finish off the enemy in front of you!¡± The vine lizard said with a gloomy tone. Hearing this, Fang Yuan also narrowed his eyes. Due to the intense battle just now, he needed time to prepare before summoning the next pet beast. At this moment, the vine lizard launched another attack on the iron golem from the side. The vines swarmed forward. As if it had caught the vine lizard¡¯s attack message, the iron golem turned its body and faced the vine lizard. It began to attack again with the method it had used at the beginning. This iron golem¡­ Fang Yuan finally understood. This iron golem could actually change its attack method because of the opponent¡¯s pet¡¯s ability! Facing a monster with high defense and slow movement like the vine lizard, the iron golem would use its absolute strength to launch close-range attacks And facing a nimble pet beast like the gryphon and Ah Li, its close-range attacks would weaken, instead strengthening its long-range attacks. This was too terrifying. The vine lizard said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Don¡¯t stop, I can¡¯t hold on for long. D*mn it, this iron fellow isn¡¯t affected by any spiritual interference at all.¡± Fang Yuan obviously knew that the vine lizard was referring to the hypnotic spores. If a robot could fall asleep, that would be incredible. However, as the iron golem attacked the vine lizard, Ah Li was freed. Ah Li raised his head and shot out a dazzling bolt of lightning towards the stone slab. However, the scene of the stone slab exploding did not appear. The stone slab seemed to be very tough. On the other side, the iron golem had an absolute advantage over the vine lizard. If Ah Li were to knock it out again, the vine lizard would probably die here. Ah Li seemed to have understood this point, and it was also very anxious. Xiao Jin seemed to have understood something, and directly rushed towards the stone slab. It had already suffered a very serious injury. With this full-force collision, it completely fainted the moment it hit the stone slab. Chapter 116 - The Man Who Insta-Killed the Iron Golem ¡°Xiao Jin!¡± Fang Yuan suddenly stood up from behind the rock. On the other side, the iron golem¡¯s iron fist was about to land on the vine lizard¡¯s head again. However, because the switch had been destroyed, the iron golem¡¯s movements gradually slowed down and then stopped. Did It succeed? Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan could not help but let out a long breath. He was preparing to summon Xiao Jin back to his own space to recuperate. ¡°It¡¯s not over yet!¡± The vine lizard suddenly reminded. After the iron golem fell, its body was like a robot that had electricity leakage and its entire body was emitting electricity. This enormous pressure made Fang Yuan and his pet beasts feel¡­ despair. What exactly was it? Seeing that it had stood up again, the electric currents in its body seemed to tell people that it was not to be trifled with. ¡°Light seal!¡± Just as the iron golem stood up and was about to launch an attack, three huge rays of light fell from the sky and fixed the golem in a specific area. ¡°Light sword!¡± A ray of golden light pierced through the clouds and formed the shape of a giant sword. It fell down and pinned the iron golem to the ground. Although the iron golem had no feelings, it was still struggling hard. It kept gathering its strength to escape from the suppression of the sword. Fang Yuan looked up and saw a man in white. At the first glance, it looked like he had grown wings. In fact, the wings were attached to his body by some kind of plant. and the one who used the light sword just now was a lion walking upright. They slowly landed on the ground and walked to Fang Yuan. ¡°Student, you aren¡¯t injured, right? How could you barge into Heavenly Secret Realm? Where is your instructor?¡± He asked a bunch of questions in one breath, and Fang Yuan did not know where to start. ¡°I¡­¡± Fang Yuan did not know how to answer for a moment. He immediately summoned Xiao Jin back to the space. Xiao Jin might really die here. Then, he organized his thoughts and told the man in front of him the whole story. ¡­ The man revealed an incredulous expression. He asked, ¡°You fought with this machine for half an hour just now?¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He still did not know where this golem came from. ¡°Let me give you a brief introduction. My name is Ouyang Xinglan. I am the instructor of the Heaven Group in the Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang groups of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± The man introduced himself while letting the lion get rid of the iron golem. ¡°Hi, I am a candidate who applied for Heavenly Secret Pavilion this year.¡± ¡°Your appearance here means that you are already very outstanding. But why were you attacked by the war machine? It is our school¡¯s defense facility. Only demonized pet beasts will take the initiative to attack when they approach.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan then only realized. He took out a magic core from his pocket and said to Ouyang Xinglan, ¡°Is it because I have this on me that I was attacked?¡± Ouyang Xinglan snatched the magic core and touched it for a while, then said, ¡°Where did you get this thing? I killed a lot of demonized pet beasts, but I didn¡¯t get a single one.¡± Fang Yuan told the man in front of him everything he had encountered in the arcane realm certification. For some reason, he felt that this man was very friendly and trustworthy. Hearing this, Ouyang Xinglan narrowed his eyes and said, ¡°I see. There are more and more demonized pet beasts in the arcane realm. This is not good news.¡± ¡°By the way, Mr. Ouyang, may I ask, what is your pet beast?¡± Seeing the lion¡¯s extremely cool performance, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart could not help but be moved. His pet beasts could not defeat the iron golem at all, but it was actually destroyed by the lion in a few moves. Ouyang Xinglan smiled and passed the information of the pet beast to Fang Yuan: [ Scientific name: Sun Battle Lion. ] [ Bloodline: Lion Heart Emperor. ] [ Rarity: Star brilliance intermediate-grade. ] [ Level: Level 10 mid-grade. ] [ Attributes: Beast, light, fire. ] [ Positioning: Attack, control, burst. ] [ Skills: 1. Light Sword; 2. Light Seal; 3. Light Break Slash; 4. Lion Roar¡­ . 10. Sun Bloodline. ] There were actually more than ten skills, and it was actually a star brilliance mid-grade pet! Star Brilliance was a legendary pet beast. It was said that after a pet beast reached a certain level, it would possess its own intelligence, and it would not submit to humans so easily. Therefore, it could only be considered a legend. He did not expect to see a legendary pet beast today, and it was actually light-type. In the pet world, the light and dark attributes were extremely rare. Most people¡¯s understanding was still that light was healing, and dark was blinding. While this was the shallow understanding, the people of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had already developed a set of attack system with light and darkness elements as the core. ¡°Then¡­ what pet beast level is the iron golem that I was fighting with?¡± ¡°Eh, you can actually fight with it for so long. Do you know, according to its strength, its skill attributes should be at the peak of diamond¡­¡± No wonder Ouyang Xinglan was shocked. Fang Yuan had relied on a few platinum pet beasts to actually fight back and forth with the diamond-peak war machine. The war machine was not a pet beast, so it would not be affected by any negative effects. Furthermore, the principal of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had recorded a large amount of combat experience. Ordinary pet beasts would be toyed with to death by it. The young man in front of him was incredulous no matter how he looked at it. ¡°Come here.¡± ??? Fang Yuan did not know what he was going to do. ¡°Take out all your magic cores.¡± Although he did not know what Ouyang Xinglan was thinking, he probably would not snatch his magic cores. Even if he really wanted to snatch them, Fang Yuan was no match for him. Holding all the magic cores in his hands, Ouyang Xinglan frowned and said, ¡°Young man, do you believe me?¡± How could Fang Yuan not believe him? He was just short of calling him master. ¡°Alright, leave these magic cores to me. I will take the lowest grade magic core to conduct a research. If there is any progress, I will let you know. However, if you take the magic core and enter the school, you will be attacked by other traps.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan¡¯s heart turned cold. If it was because the magic core that he would be attacked, then of course he would not keep this temporarily useless thing. Although after demonization, the attributes of the pet beast would increase by more than 10 times, the demonized pet beast did not seem to have consciousness. Instead, it was a slave controlled by the desire to fight. ¡°Alright.¡± After thinking for a while, Fang Yuan handed the magic cores to Ouyang Xinglan. Ouyang Xinglan took the magic cores and took out an iron box from the space. He carefully placed the magic cores in it. He then handed the custodian certificate to Fang Yuan. Then, wings grew on his back again. This time, Fang Yuan could see it more clearly. It was a kind of flower. However, this flower seemed to have thoughts and could fly according to its owner¡¯s consciousness. ¡°Hurry up and go to the exam. You should be able to catch the last round now. Come on, I¡¯ll wait for you in the Heaven class.¡± After saying that, Ouyang Xinglan and the Sun Battle Lion flew into the sky together. The golem that attacked Fang Yuan just now squatted on the bridge pier without moving, as if it had never seen Fang Yuan before. Chapter 117 - Arrogant Examinee Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio It was at the examination venue of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The chief examiner looked at the red-haired boy in front of him with a complicated expression. He had already defeated more than a dozen challengers. Without a doubt, he had the first place in today¡¯s examination. ¡°You¡¯re too weak. Go home and train for two years before coming back.¡± The red-haired boy¡¯s name was Xu Fei. His pet was a small fire-spitting dragon that matched his hair color perfectly. Although he had a faint smile on his face, those who had watched the match just now had seen his murderous expression. The trainer in front of Xu Fei was hugging his pet and crying. This pet was already on the verge of death, and if he did not receive treatment, it would disappear very quickly. ¡°Principal¡­¡± the chief examiner whispered to the principal. The principal waved his hand, indicating that he should not continue. ¡°This is how a battle supposed to be. It¡¯s not a game. As the tutor of the Huang group, you should understand this, right?¡± ¡°Xu Fei has won. This is your twelfth victory. If nothing unexpected happens, you can smoothly enter the Heaven group. Therefore, please stop using your ruthless fighting style. They are your classmates, your companions that you will be getting along with day and night, not your enemies.¡± The chief examiner revealed a disdainful expression and said. ¡°Shouldn¡¯t the weak disappear?¡± Xu Fei showed the sickly and delicate expression that he had shown during the battle just now. 1 The chief examiner¡¯s name was Huang Ying. He was the tutor of the Huang group of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. He had been unhappy with the boy in front of him for a long time, who had given him a feeling that he was neither mainstream nor stupid. ¡°Stop it.¡± Seeing that Xu Fei still wanted to command the fire dragon to attack his opponent, Huang Ying¡¯s face showed an angry expression. ¡°This brat really needs a beating.¡± This was what he was thinking in his heart. However, he didn¡¯t say it out loud. In Heavenly Secret Pavilion, there was a rule that no third person was allowed to interfere in the arena. As for life and death, it was up to the two of them to decide. The weak could refuse to enter the arena. They would only be ridiculed, but their lives would definitely not be in danger. Once they entered the arena, it would be a showdown, and life and death would also be decided. ¡°Surrender, you.¡± Huang Ying saw that Xu Fei had no intention of stopping, so he could only persuade the other party to stop the duel. As long as he surrendered, they could stop the duel. However, that trainer also seemed to be stubborn. They were both talented youths who had passed through the arcane realm and received the attention of thousands. Why should they admit defeat? ¡°I won¡¯t.¡± He stubbornly squeezed out two words from his mouth. Huang Ying sighed. Xu Fei looked even happier and said, ¡°Teacher, it¡¯s not that I won¡¯t give him a chance. It¡¯s just that he¡¯s useless!¡± After saying that, his arms were wrapped around with flames, circle after circle. Then, together with the fire of the little fire dragon, he rushed towards the boy who was holding the pet. ¡­ ¡°Save him quickly!¡± Huang Ying saw Xu Fei¡¯s satisfied expression and the other party which was already severely burned. His pet had used all its strength to block in front of its master at the last moment, so its master had survived. He was severely burned, but he still held the last hair of his pet beast in his hand. ¡­ This little brat¡­ Huang Ying couldn¡¯t take it anymore. It wasn¡¯t that he had never seen an arrogant person, but he had never seen such an arrogant person. Did he really think that a fire dragon of platinum pinnacle was invincible? If it were me¡­ The principal pulled him back, shook his head, and said, ¡°You are the chief examiner. Do what you should do. Don¡¯t use your values of good and evil on others.¡± ¡°But Principal¡­¡± he looked at the principal, and there was an indescribable depth in his eyes. He said weakly, ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Fei stood proudly on the stage and said loudly, ¡°Is there anyone else who wants to fight with me? Come up quickly. If you don¡¯t come, the exam will be over, and I will be the only one to pass. It¡¯s too lonely.¡± ¡°This year¡¯s new students seem to be very impressive.¡± Ouyang Xinglan landed on the stage. He looked at Xu Fei who was flaunting his prowess on the stage. He did not know what it was that made him feel amused. Huang Ying and Ouyang Xinglan did not get along well. When he saw him laugh, he deliberately mocked, ¡°Congratulations to your Heaven group for having another madman.¡± ¡°A madman is good. If it were a normal person, they would definitely not be able to stand it if they went to the devil world to fight.¡± Ouyang Xinglan replied indifferently, as if he did not take Huang Ying¡¯s mockery to heart. Then, he looked at the venue, there were still eight people. ¡°There are so many left? The quality of this year¡¯s students is not bad.¡± On the surface, he was praising the examinees present, but in his heart, he was still thinking about the youth who was rushing to the examination venue. In the corner of the venue, a brown-haired youth carrying a large sword on his back was coldly looking at Xu Fei on the stage. ¡°Idiot, you really think that you¡¯re invincible. Randy, are you interested to get rid of his pride?¡± His sword seemed to respond to his thoughts. Anyone who had watched his previous matches would know that it was not a sword, but a sharp-edged mantis. It usually used this posture on him. As he was about to walk onto the stage, Xu Fei had noticed him. ¡°This person is a strong opponent.¡± Xu Fei had only watched two of his matches, but he was sure that the man in front of him had not used his full strength. It was a dangerous mission. ¡°Good!¡± Huang Ying saw Xu Fei¡¯s expression darken and couldn¡¯t help but cheer on the youngster in front of him.. Whether he was a good person or a bad person, at least they were allies at this moment. ¡­ At this moment, Fang Yuan landed at the entrance of the venue on Xiao Yin¡¯s back. It attracted everyone¡¯s attention. ¡°Steel gryphon? Just this pet can enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± This was what most people were thinking. As a defensive pet, steel gryphon was rarely favored by high-level trainers. In their understanding, a purely defensive pet was no different from a live target. ¡°I¡¯m here to take the exam.¡± Fang Yuan did not know what to say. Seeing the scene in the venue, he seemed a little embarrassed, not knowing what had happened. Ouyang Xinglan nudged Huang Ying with his elbow and said, ¡°This kid is very powerful. If you want to teach the kid on the stage a lesson, this kid is the most suitable.¡± Huang Ying glared at Ouyang Xinglan and asked, ¡°You were not at the venue just now, so you didn¡¯t see how cruel Xu Fei was. The young man in front of you looks pure, so how could he be a match for this kind of demon?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t it natural for an angel to suppress a demon?¡± Ouyang Xinglan didn¡¯t care about his image at all. He picked up a booger and flicked it at Huang Ying¡¯s face. Huang Ying caught it with one hand, but when he wanted to shake it off, he found that the booger was actually stained with snot and stuck to his hand. ¡°You¡­¡± ¡°Stop dragging. Let him compete on the stage. I guarantee that he won¡¯t lose.¡± Huang Ying saw Ouyang Xinglan and a wave of disgust rose in his heart. He wiped his hands on his body in disgust and said, ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°Go on stage and compete. Your opponent is Xu Fei from Holy Capital. As long as you can defeat him, I¡¯ll accept you into my group.¡± ¡°Hey.¡± Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°I said that I would let him compete. I didn¡¯t say that I would let you have this seedling.¡± ¡°You shut up, I am the chief examiner.¡± Chapter 118 - The Price of Acting Cool Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Although he did not know what had happened, it seemed that he had been lucky. As long as he won one match, he would be able to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Some had said that Heavenly Secret Pavilion seemed to have several matches. Even if he won in the end, it was possible that he would be disqualified because he was not favored by his mentor. Thinking about it this way, his luck was not bad. Fang Yuan walked onto the stage. This feeling was very familiar. ¡°Oh? It¡¯s you?¡± Xu Fei recognized Fang Yuan at first sight. They had met once outside of thunder arcane realm. Indeed, Xu Fei almost knocked Fang Yuan to the ground. ¡°Who are you?¡± Fang Yuan asked. Fang Yuan could not remember. After all, he did not know the identity of the other party. There were so many people who went to arcane realm every day. How could he have so much time to know everyone. Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s attitude, Xu Fei could not help but clench his teeth. He decided to teach Fang Yuan a lesson, so that he could completely recognize who he was. ¡°Are you done chatting? Let¡¯s start the match!¡± As expected, Xu Fei summoned his fire dragon at the beginning of the match. [ Scientific name: Fire Dragon. ] [ Bloodline: Dragon. ] [ Rarity: Platinum Peak. ] [ Level: Level 5 high. ] [ Attributes: Dragon, fire. ] [ Positioning: Attack, burst. ] [ Skills: ??? ] It was actually fire damage. Fang Yuan laughed. If it was a pet beast with light, dark, or physics attack, Fang Yuan might be more afraid of it. As a pet beast with only one attribute of fire, Ah Li who was equipped with soul stones was really a one-handed killer. ¡°Come out, Ah Li!¡± After Ah Li entered platinum intermediate level, its body had grown to about 1.5 meters long. Its three tails were swaying in the air, exuding a noble and elegant aura. ¡°Three tails of platinum intermediate? Are you tired of living?¡± Xu Fei saw that the three tails only had platinum intermediate level strength, and his body was much smaller than the fire dragon, he felt greatly insulted by Fang Yuan. ¡°Grade is just for reference. True strength can only be known during a battle.¡± Fang Yuan said calmly. Huang Ying and Ouyang Xing Lan nodded after hearing it. The principal looked at the two of them curiously. These two stubborn people could be said to be incompatible with fire and water. They actually took a fancy to a youth at the same time. This really surprised him. ¡°Then don¡¯t blame me.¡± Xu Fei planned to end the battle with one strike. ¡°Dragon flame bullet!¡± The fire dragon flapped its wings and flew into the air. It raised its head and gathered its strength. Then, it spat out a three-meter-long fire bullet that flew directly toward Ah Li. Following a loud explosion, smoke rose from the venue. Xu Fei revealed a sinister smile and said, ¡°Hahaha, I¡¯ll let you pretend. You¡¯re dead now. Dragon flame bullet is the fire dragon¡¯s most powerful killing move.¡± He had not used this move in the competition just now. Firstly, it was because it consumed a lot of mental power. Secondly, he was afraid that no one would fight him if he used this move. Indeed, the examinees who had lost their qualification to compete looked at the huge explosion with fear. They felt that under this kind of explosion, not only would they not be able to protect their pet beasts, they would also turn into ashes. ¡°That youth won¡¯t die, right?¡± Huang Ying was a little worried. In order to prevent hurting the audience, the arena had set up a special barrier so that the power of the elements could not be released. Thus, no matter how much dust covered the stage, the audience below the stage remained as calm as ever. ¡°Are you that unconfident?¡± Ouyang Xinglan was amused by Huang Ying¡¯s cowardly attitude. If the students who came to Heavenly Secret Pavilion all at this level, the pavilion would have long collapsed, and humans would not have to fight against the demon world. ¡­ A whirlwind suddenly swept up and blew away the dust. In the center of the arena, Fang Yuan stood unscathed. Three tails had used a defensive posture to block the damage. Not only was it uninjured, but it had also protected Fang Yuan. Seeing the scene, Xu Fei¡¯s pupils shrunk due to shock! ¡°How is that possible!¡± ¡°How is that not possible?¡± Fang Yuan said tit for tat. ¡°Do you have any more powerful moves? If you don¡¯t attack, do you want me to attack instead?¡± Seeing this scene, Huang Ying could not help but shout in his heart, good! Xu Fei¡¯s arrogant attitude on the stage had angered many people, but not every trainer had the ability to fight to the death with a dragon-type pet trainer. ¡°You¡­¡± it was not that Xu Fei did not have stronger moves, but what he was thinking was not here¡­ ¡°Ah Li, switch to the thunder form and use the lightning spell to attack the fire dragon!¡± While Xu Fei was hesitating, Fang Yuan¡¯s attack had already arrived. The speed of the lightning was too fast, so the fire dragon did not have time to react. After being hit, it felt numb. As it had a fire attribute, its fire resistance was relatively high, so its body was not ignited by the lightning fire skill. However, it was still quite difficult to take this attack head-on, so it landed on the stage. ¡°Good! You can do it!¡± The trainers who had lost their pets because of Xu Fei cheered for Fang Yuan, the hero. ¡°D*mn it, didn¡¯t you say that you were waiting for me to attack?¡± Xu Fei said angrily. ¡°Ah, I waited for you for 10 seconds, but I attacked before you could attack. This is a stage, not a game.¡± Fang Yuan was confused by his question. Speaking of which, the other party was a platinum peak pet. Why did he feel so weak? He recalled what Ouyang Xinglan had told him. He could even struggle a few times under a diamond peak pet. A platinum peak pet would just be like playing. Xu Fei¡¯s hair was originally red, but now his eyes were red. Fang Yuan had seen this move before! It was the berserk skill that Du Lei had used before. Xu Fei had not even entered university yet, but he had already learned the skills of a trainer through self-study (or some other means). It was truly shocking. Fang Yuan was no exception. He had looked for books on the skills of a trainer, but he could not find them in the bookstore. It was said that the skills of a trainer were related to the school. Students from different schools had different skills of a trainer. Then Xu Fei¡­ Was it a training skill from the same school as Du Lei? This was the reason why Fang Yuan was surprised. As expected, as Xu Fei¡¯s eyes turned dark red, the fire dragon¡¯s speed increased. This time, it did not directly use the dragon flame bullet to attack, but¡­ it wanted to tear Ah Li into pieces with hand-to-hand combat. After all, it was twice the size of Ah Li. ¡°If you fight me with your bare hands, I won¡¯t be sleepy anymore!¡± Fang Yuan laughed and said. The vine lizard appeared out of thin air on the stage. Just now, it had been beaten to death by the iron golem. It was so aggrieved that it wanted to die. Now, it was facing an opponent that was a whole level lower than the iron golem. It only wanted to vent the anger in its heart. Its four vines wrapped around the four legs of the fire dragon and pressed it to the ground. It was unable to move. ¡°In terms of hand-to-hand combat, the vine lizard is a real man who has even defeated the earth overlord flower.¡± Fang Yuan sneered. Chapter 119 - A Once-in-a-Century Talent Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing that the fire dragon was subdued by a strange plant, Xu Fei did not show any surprise. For genius trainers like them, it would be a shame if they could not even control their two pets in battle. Seeing that Fang Yuan had summoned his second pet, he also summoned his second pet. It was a huge dark golden python. The moment it was summoned, it stretched out its body and bit the vine lizard, biting its neck. ¡°The wound of [ python bite ] will continue to bleed. Moreover, this dark golden python seems to be extremely poisonous,¡± said the vine lizard. ¡°You can feel that my body is no longer under my control.¡± After saying that, he released the fire dragon. ¡°You¡¯re still quite strong. You actually forced me to produce two pet beasts. Now, I¡¯ll let you see the combination skill of the fire dragon and the dark gold python.¡± ¡°Combine what?¡± Fang Yuan naturally knew the power of the combination skill. Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin had used their [ storm of destruction ] for so long, and it was still a godly skill for attacking cities and conquering lands, and fighting in groups. He had previously thought of creating his own combination skill, but had failed. Now that Fang Yuan had comprehended the advancement of pet beasts and the rules for leveling up, his research on pet skills had only just begun. The fire dragon stood behind the dark gold python, and a flame bullet shot out of its mouth. It was originally a very ordinary skill, but when it passed over the dark gold python¡¯s body, it was directly cut into dozens of small fireballs by the dark gold python. Seeing that it was flames, Ah Li took the initiative to block it. It was not afraid of flames at all. But this time, It was not unharmed, because within the fireballs, there were actually snake scales hidden, stabbing into Ah Li¡¯s body like a blade. Moreover, these scales were still burning. ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ah Li felt a burst of pain. The fire blade¡¯s damage was still very terrifying. Even if the fire damage had been reduced by more than half, just the damage from this blade alone was unbearable. ¡°Prepare to die. Do you really think that you can defeat me just because you defeated the fire dragon?¡± Xu Fei said coldly. He no longer had that sickly expression on his face because he controlled two peak platinum pet beasts and was in the state of skill release.., it made him extremely mentally exhausted. Right now, he only wanted to end the battle quickly and then go to sleep. ¡°I won¡¯t show any mercy this time.¡± Xu Fei held his head. He was going to overdraw his mental power and use the combination skill [ flowing blade like fire ] again. Ouyang Xinglan looked at Xu Fei with an appreciative expression. Overdrawing one¡¯s mental power was not something that could be done just because one wanted to. Most people would lose consciousness the moment they overdraw their mental power, and the battle between the pet beasts would be declared as a failure. The trainers who could do this were all ruthless people. Fang Yuan rolled his eyes at Xu Fei. This fellow was indeed powerful, able to control two peak platinum level pet beasts. It was just that he was stronger. If it was to defend against physics, the steel gryphon was undoubtedly the best choice. It was just that Xiao Jin was injured in the battle just now, and the other gryphons might not be as well coordinated as Xiao Jin and himself. If it was the next best thing¡­ ¡°Armored bear, come out! Block the iron blade for Ah Li!¡± ¡°What!¡± This time, the venue had become very lively. Including Huang Ying, none of them dared to believe their eyes. ¡°Three pets?¡± In Huang Ying¡¯s impression, three pet trainers were rare because the cost of raising a pet beast was too high. Not only did they need materials to evolve, but they also needed to bring him to various arcane realms to increase his level. Most people would choose to focus on one or two pet beasts to continuously strengthen them. As for Fang Yuan¡¯s three pet beasts, the vine lizard was undoubtedly the strongest. The three-tailed and the armored bear seemed to be evenly matched. This kid seemed that he didn¡¯t know how to focus all his resources on raising a pet beast. If he focused all his resources on the vine lizard, he would probably be able to instantly kill the fire dragon with one strike just now. He wouldn¡¯t have any worries later. ¡°I also heard that he is not only a three-pet trainer, but he can also command an entire gryphon legion.¡± ¡°It is not difficult to command a legion by himself,¡± Huang Ying explained.¡± You can prepare potions to replenish your mental power in advance and summon the legion¡¯s pet beasts at one go. Do not provide them with anymore mental power. Then, you only need to focus on commanding the leader of the legion. On the contrary, in this kind of arena battle, it is more difficult for one person to control three pets. This is because they need to continuously absorb mental power during the battle.¡± Ouyang Xinglan was a genius in the field of battle. He had acquired a lot of experience in studying the skills of pets. Huang Ying was a genius in the field of theory. His students would focus more on the precise control of pets. ¡°This child, I want him for sure.¡± Huang Ying thought. He had no idea how to raise a pet beast. Even under such circumstances, he could still raise a pet beast to be so powerful. This was definitely not a problem that could be solved with money! On the stage, the combination skill [ flowing blade like fire ] attacked again. The armored bear buried its head into the armor and turned into a sphere, blocking in front of Ah Li. The scales of the snake were embedded in its armor, cutting through its capillaries. But that was all. Xu Fei could barely stand. He pointed at Fang Yuan shakily and said, ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m going to¡­ kill¡­ you!¡± Then, he fell to the ground with a plop. ¡°Fang Yuan wins!¡± When Huang Ying announced the news, the audience burst into applause and cheers. Xu Fei, the Devil, had finally learned his lesson. After he fainted, the fire dragon and the dark gold python, the two pet beasts, disappeared from the arena with unwilling expressions. It was useless even if they were unwilling. They knew that it was their last attack. If they continued to stay on the arena, they would only be passively beaten. After keeping the three pet beasts back into the space, Fang Yuan jumped off the arena and walked to Huang Ying. ¡°Teacher, you said just now that as long as I win, you will take me as your disciple, right?¡± Huang Ying naturally could not close his mouth. Ouyang Xinglan took a step forward and said, ¡°Young man, since you have entered Heavenly Secret Pavilion, of course you should give priority to our Heaven group. We are the top fighting force of Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡± ¡°Brother Ouyang, what you said is different! This young man has an imposing bearing. The moves he used on the arena just now were even more unpredictable. Of course, he should join our Xuan Group and unleash his skills to the limit.¡± ¡°What Murong said makes sense, but I think that the correct path is for him to join our Earth group and properly refine the pet beasts in his hands.¡± The principal narrowed his eyes as he looked at the four people in front of him. They were respectively the tutors of the four groups of Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang. To put it bluntly, they were the class teachers. Each group had their own specialties, and the learning and experience would also be different. The principal was also at a loss. This was the first time he found that someone could actually meet the requirements of four groups at the same time. Such a talent was indeed rare! Chapter 120 - The Four Great Academies of Heavenly Secret Pavilion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Heavenly Secret Pavilion was divided into four academies. Each academy was called a group because there were very few people in each academy. There were less than 50 people in each academy and It was more like a class. Heaven Group: It was the champion of several academy competitions and was known as the strongest group. It was good at all kinds of offensive techniques. The instructor was Ouyang Xinglan Earth Group: It was mockingly called by the earth group the second best in ten thousand years. It was good at excavating the potential of pet beasts. Apart from fighting, it also studied the body of pet beasts. The instructor was Sima Kaile Xuan group: Compared to combat, Xuan group paid more attention to the coordination between the pet beasts. They devoted themselves to the research of the pet beast fusion skill. The instructor was Linghu Yiren Huang Group: It excelled in training the pet beasts. The pet beast skills were diversified. It inclined to improve the trainer¡¯s own strength. The instructor was Huang Ying. After listening to the principal¡¯s description, Fang Yuan was very curious about one thing. Why were the instructors of the other groups all having multiple surname? Huang Ying was the only one with a single surname. One would not know without asking. As expected, Huang Ying was only the acting instructor. The actual instructor was a man named Xiahou Xingxiu. However, he was currently fighting at the frontline, as for which place he was currently fighting, the principal did not specify. ¡°Fang Yuan, I¡¯m now giving you a chance to choose.¡± The principal saw that Fang Yuan had been invited by the instructors from the respective groups, he appreciated that this person was a talent. He therefore explained everything in detail to him, waiting for Fang Yuan to make his own choice. ¡°There¡¯s such a good thing.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. He had thought that it was very difficult to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion and did not expect that he would only need to defeat one opponent to be invited. Moreover, he was invited by four groups at the same time. If Principal Yao Yuan knew about this, he would definitely be so happy that he could not close his mouth laughing. He would also publicize it. However, when facing the choice, Fang Yuan was also somewhat troubled. Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s light sword had left a deep impression in his heart. He yearned for that kind of power all the time. He believed that Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s own strength was not ordinary, otherwise, it would not have such an exaggerated effect. The heaven group was undoubtedly Fang Yuan¡¯s first choice. The earth group was more inclined to excavate the potential of the pet beasts. To be honest, Fang Yuan¡¯s hundred times increase system had already excavated most of the potential of the pet beasts. As for the research on the pet beast¡¯s body, it was not within his consideration. It sounded like a veterinarian. The Xuan group was good at team battles. This was rather interesting to Fang Yuan. Moreover, it sounded like joining the group would allow him to learn many fusion skills. If that was the case, the strength of Fang Yuan¡¯s pet legion would not be underestimated. As for the Huang group¡­ It was nurturing the pet beasts and increasing the ability of their trainers. Thinking of an incident, Fang Yuan asked, ¡°Principal, can I ask all of your teachers a question? If the teacher¡¯s answer satisfies my wish, I will join their academy.¡± What a brag! Everyone present thought so. What was this place? Was it a place for you to ask question and only joined the academy if you were satisfied with the answer? This was Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Even the lowest ranked people here were considered genius. It was just that there were levels among geniuses. The principal stroked his beard and looked around at the four teachers. He didn¡¯t mind, but he wanted to know the opinions of the teachers. Ouyang Xinglan laughed first and said, ¡°Young man, you have guts. I¡¯ll play with you.¡± Huang Ying also nodded and said, ¡°I don¡¯t mind. After all, the choice is a two-way street.¡± The other two instructors, seeing that the strongest Ouyang Xinglan had expressed his opinion, naturally didn¡¯t have any objections. They said, ¡°It¡¯s good to be young. I¡¯ll let you be wild for once!¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Seeing that the four teachers had agreed, Fang Yuan made a gesture to express his gratitude. Everyone present was shocked by Fang Yuan¡¯s charm. It was already very rare to be able to receive the favor of the four academies, and he actually took the initiative to own the right to choose in his own hands. This youth was too crazy. The question Fang Yuan wanted to ask was actually very simple, it was also very practical. ¡°Teachers, may I ask if all of your students were 100 times stronger than others regardless it¡¯s in terms of learning, cultivating, or even winning rewards, which of your students will be the strongest?¡± This was what Fang Yuan wanted to know the most, and it was also the most practical question! This was because he was the owner of the hundred times increase system. However, this question sounded extremely arrogant to others. This Fang Yuan was clearly praising himself for being a hundred times smarter than the others! Ouyang Xinglan thought for a moment and replied, ¡°Our academy is focusing on battle. If there is a hundred times gain, then this student¡¯s pet beast level will reach an exaggerated level. Other than that, he can learn the highest level of trainer skills, and can increase the pet beast¡¯s attack power to ten thousand times, a whole ten thousand times. I really can¡¯t think of any pet beast that can withstand this blow.¡± Sima Kaile continued after Ouyang Xinglan, ¡°Our Earth team is focusing on excavating the potential of pet beasts. If there is a hundred times improvement, take your platinum-pinnacle vine lizard as an example, when you graduate, I have the confidence to upgrade it to the intermediate level of star brilliance. In addition, the strongest trainer skill of our Earth team, under a hundred times enhancement, the defense and resistance of the enemy pet beasts will infinitely approach zero.¡± At this point, Sima Kaile glanced at Ouyang xinglan and said, ¡°When the time comes, you might even have a chance to defeat that old fool Ouyang Xinglan.¡± The Earth team liked to argue with the Heaven team. On the contrary, the Xuan team¡¯s Linghu Yiren appeared much quieter. He had his eyes closed the entire time, looking like an enigmatic person. When he saw the Heaven and Earth group finish speaking, he smiled and said, ¡°Our Xuan group is specialized in team battles, especially the fusion skill. If It¡¯s a hundred times stronger, you¡¯ve already seen the fusion skill of the two pet beasts on the stage just now. I wonder if you¡¯re interested in seeing the fusion skill of a hundred pets? Secondly, if you¡¯re a hundred times stronger, each of our pet beasts will be directly raised to the peak of their current level.¡± After listening to the introduction of the three groups of teachers, Fang Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air. This was too exaggerating. He simply wanted to learn from each and every one of them! Especially the 10,000 times attack power of the Heaven group. Wouldn¡¯t it mean that any random golden pet beast could easily defeat a peak platinum pet beast? No, a peak diamond pet beast could probably do it, too. However, when he thought of this, Fang Yuan remembered that there was still the Huang group that had not been introduced. Huang Ying had been thinking for a long time just now. He did not know what his group¡¯s specialty was, in the end, he thought of how to describe it. ¡°Our Huang group¡¯s concept is different from the other groups. They treat their pet beasts as tools, while we treat our pet beasts as friends. If you can get a hundred times the gain, come to our group and you will receive a hundred times the materials and equipment. This is because we will trigger the fortuitous encounters that only special pets encounter. As for the trainer skill, it may be weaker than theirs, but¡­¡± As if he had made up his mind, Huang Ying said: ¡°But after our skills have been strengthened by 100 times, it will completely change the relationship between pet beasts and humans!¡± Chapter 121 - Making a Choice ¡°You¡¯re deliberately mystifying things again.¡± Ouyang Xinglan heard Huang Ying¡¯s words and said impatiently, ¡°You pet conservationists are really Holy Mother!¡± ¡°Brother Ouyang, you¡¯re wrong.¡± Sima Kaile said, ¡°The Holy Mother requests others to do things. He only restricts himself and his students. We can only say that his love is overflowing.¡± On the other hand, Linghu Yiren acted as if he had no objections and laughed to himself. ¡°How do you change the relationship between pet beasts and humans?¡± Fang Yuan was very curious about this answer given because no matter how he strengthened it, it should not be counted on relationship. Could it be that it was a hundred times more loyal? Huang Ying paused and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I will show it to you once.¡± A green light appeared on Huang Ying¡¯s hand. Then, countless sparrow-type pet beasts flew in from the open door of the guild hall. They surrounded Huang Ying, creating a kind of sacred feeling. ¡°Sigh¡­¡± Ouyang Xinglan said, ¡°It¡¯s just some junk. If I close my eyes, they¡¯ll all die with a light sword.¡± ¡°No.¡± Linghu Yiren said with a smile, ¡°Do you still remember the premise that Fang Yuan mentioned? If it¡¯s strengthened a hundred times, this wind sparrow is indeed a weak bronze pet beast. What if he can summon a diamond pet beast, or¡­ a star brilliance pet beast?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense. We don¡¯t even see a handful star brilliance pet beasts in this level four arcane realm, what¡¯s more to summon one?¡± Sima Kaile and Ouyang Xinglan were the same type of people. They disdained this kind of non-destructive power. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t understand. He asked, ¡°Is this a summoning spell? Summoning a neutral pet to assist you in battle?¡± Huang Ying shook his head. ¡°No, many people think that this is a summoning spell. In fact, it is a kind of signal, a distress signal. When a pet is in danger, it will send two kinds of messages to its own kind, ¡®danger¡¯ and ¡®help¡¯. Our training skills are focused on researching and exchanging information with the pet.¡± This¡­ Wasn¡¯t this the power that Fang Yuan was pursuing? There were very few pet beasts that understood human language like the vine lizard. For example, the vine lizard would teach Fang Yuan many battle techniques and even take the initiative to help Fang Yuan. Ah Li, Pick, Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin, Xiao Ying¡­ They all wanted to communicate with Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan had always believed that they must have many secrets to tell him. This Huang group seemed ordinary, but in reality, they were excavating the secrets of every pet beast! The Earth group seemed to be nurturing pet beasts and excavating the potential of their pets, but in fact, they had a bottom line. For example, for pet beasts below bronze-level, their potential would only be so-so. They would definitely give up at the first instant. There was no need to mention about Heaven group and Xuan group. They were completely relying on high-level pet beasts to support the situation. Huang group was¡­ an existence that treated weak pet beasts equally. ¡°I¡¯ve decided.¡± Fang Yuan smiled and said, ¡°I want to join the Huang group.¡± ¡°What!¡± Ouyang Xinglan could not believe it. In school, he had never lost before. This time, he actually lost to a charlatan. Sima Kaile also said with extreme dissatisfaction, ¡°It¡¯s a waste of a good seedling. I suggest you learn something useful. In the future, you can contribute to the country and the human world.¡± Brother Linghu smiled indifferently and said, ¡°Congratulations, Huang Ying. You¡¯ve recruited a new student this year. This child¡¯s future is limitless. You have to train him well.¡± Huang Ying did not expect Fang Yuan to choose him in the end. He asked curiously, ¡°Why did you choose the Huang group? Is it because of the summoning skill?¡± ¡°No, my dream is to explore the secrets behind the pet beast and become the world¡¯s number one trainer.¡± Fang yuan smiled and said, ¡°Then when do we start learning?¡± ¡°Uh, there¡¯s no rush.¡± Huang Ying looked at the principal. After all, the recruitment of students was not so hasty. The principal indicated that it was fine and announced, ¡°As the first candidate selected this year, Fang Yuan will be assigned to Huang group.¡± Then, he said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Now, find a seat and sit down. It¡¯s also very fun to watch other people¡¯s battles.¡± Fang Yuan nodded and found a corner to sit down. The competition time was also very short, but Fang Yuan had seen what high-level battles were like. At the same time, the results of the recruitment were out. This time, a total of nine students were recruited, including Xu Fei, who had just been knocked unconscious by Fang Yuan. Ouyang Xinglan thought that he was a talent. Although he was a little evil, he had a way to restrain him, so he accepted him with a smile. In this competition, Ouyang Xinglan accepted two students. One was Xu Fei, and the other was the youth who carried a big sword just now, Su Han. The Earth group accepted three students, the Xuan group three while the Huang group only Fang Yuan. ¡°The above eight students will report to the school on the first of next month. There is no fee here, just come when the time comes. During this period of time, the only request I have for everyone is to stay alive. I am your principal, Shangguan Jiayan. I will see you next month.¡± The principal mischievously blinked his eyes, then turned into a bird and flew away! ¡°My God, can humans also have transformation skills?¡± ¡°No, this must be a smokescreen!¡± ¡°Did I come to the magic school?¡± The eliminated examinees were discussing among themselves. ¡°Is that some kind of trainer skill?¡± Fang Yuan asked Huang Ying. Huang Ying smiled and said, ¡°No, but you will know what it is in the future.¡± This Heavenly Secret Pavilion was really very interesting. Fang Yuan thought to himself that even the principal was so mysterious. ¡°I¡¯ll take this opportunity to explain to you about our Heavenly Secret Pavilion,¡± Huang Ying said. ¡°Heavenly Secret Pavilion is a arcane realm, you should know this, right?¡± Fang Yuan nodded, and he began to describe the entire picture of Heavenly Secret Pavilion in his mind: Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a level four arcane realm, and the highest grade of the pet beast was Star Brilliance peak. However, no one had discovered it at the moment. In terms of land area, it was about the same size as Fire Country, and Heavenly Secret Pavilion only occupied a very small part of it. Other than learning, the training grounds of each group were different. To learn here, there were two ways of scoring points. One was points which could be obtained through learning and fighting. The other was points which could be obtained through missions. Points and GPA could be used to exchange for tools and equipment, and as the corresponding level increased, the level of the items that could be exchanged would also increase. The rest was similar to the real world, including eating, drinking, and cultivating. There was no difference from the time in the outside world. This was the arcane realm of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, which was completely different from other arcane realms. Rather than calling it a arcane realm, it was more like an inner world. ¡­ At this time, Fang Yuan was on the train back to Chuxin Town. He was recalling everything that Huang Ying had told him. One of the most important things was: ¡°Pet beasts are not simple tools. They know the secrets of their own race.¡± Chapter 122 - Good News ¡°Principal, I have been accepted by Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± Fang Yuan arrived at the school early in the morning, and informed the principal the news. When his mother knew that Fang Yuan had been accepted by Fire Country¡¯s most prestigious university, she was so happy that she did not sleep well for the past two days. If not for the fact that it was now the college entrance examination, she would have treated all the teachers to a big meal. ¡°What?¡± The principal¡¯s jaw dropped. He knew that Fang Yuan would go to Heavenly Secret Pavilion, but he did not expect that he would really be accepted. It was because¡­ He had also heard a little about the acceptance by Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It was not just a matter of a talented youth being accepted, but was also meeting the requirements of the teachers who had unique tastes. Even if it was a member of Fire Country¡¯s imperial family, they might not necessarily give them face if they were accepted. The principal was so happy that he jumped over from the table, unlike a middle aged man at all. He patted Fang Yuan on the shoulder and said: ¡°I knew you would be able to do it! You are the pride of our school! Director of the Education Department, Director of the Education Department!¡± Hearing the principal call out to him, the director of the Education Department ran over from the office next door and asked, ¡°Principal, what¡¯s the matter?¡± ¡°Go and get someone to make a banner for me. The banner says ¡®Congratulations to student Fang Yuan from The First High School in Chuxin Town for being accepted by Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯!¡± The principal said. ¡°Alright.¡± Just as the director was just about to walk out of the door, he suddenly turned around and asked, ¡°Heaven¡­ Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! Heavenly Secret Pavilion, Fire country¡¯s most mysterious and also the most outstanding top notch academy! Our Fang Yuan had been specially accepted before the college entrance examination. This is the glory of our school, no, the glory of our town.¡± The principal grew more and more excited as he spoke. He then opened the window and shouted, ¡°Our School has a student from Heavenly Secret Pavilion now!¡± The director immediately dropped everything and ran out like a wild horse that had lost its rein. He was going to find the best tailor in Chuxin Town to embroider this banner, even with gilding on it. It was as if the entire school had heard the principal¡¯s cheers. Many students stood out curiously. ¡°Has the principal gone crazy? What is Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± ¡°It is the top notch training school in our country! You, simple country man.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t the best school the Academy of Science and Technology?¡± ¡°The things that are studied at Academy of Science and Technology are trash to Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°You are just a boast of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. If the Academy of Science and technology wasn¡¯t so awesome, why would it be ranked as 311 university? You don¡¯t know anything. You are a filial son of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°Heavenly Secret Pavilion has long been above these undeserved titles!¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan naturally didn¡¯t know about these discussions. The main reason he came back to break the news to the principal was to thank him for sharing the information about Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Otherwise, he might never have known about this school in his entire life. In the following days, while his classmates were preparing for the college entrance examination, Fang Yuan was just wandering around. There were still seven days before school started. Fang Yuan had actually wanted to go to the arcane realm, but the cooling-off period of all his arcane realms was not over yet. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he defeated the guardian of his space¡¯s pet arcane realm below silver grade, and there were many new buildings in the space now. It turned out that the pet beast space was not just his pet, but more like a real world. As he built more pet beast buildings, many pet beasts that he did not have appeared in the pet space. For example, army ants, armored bees, armored rhinoceroses, and even void raiders were there, but he could not communicate with them. It seemed that there was a barrier to prevent them from communicating with each other. However, these pet beasts would not attack Fang Yuan, nor would they consume Fang Yuan¡¯s mental power. They would attack each other, and it seemed that they were fighting for territory. As for what they would eat, Fang Yuan had never thought about it. Ah Li and Pick enjoyed eating, and the armored bear loved to eat honey. However, that was in the real world. In space, they seemed to be able to live healthily without anything. Perhaps this was the mystery that the Huang group had mentioned that they needed to explore. During this period of challenges, they had actually built quite a number of useful buildings. For example: [ Armored Beehive ] : Produced the honey that armored bears loved to drink, causing the armored bears to be in a state of excitement at all times, increasing their attack power and attack speed; [ Soldier Ant Nest ] : An excellent sparring partner to increase the experience gain speed of the space training ground by two times; [ Lion Statue ] : Increased the attack power of lions and gryphon-type pets by 50% . Fang Yuan was suddenly curious if the others had a similar space and what their space would be like. The admission banquet was extremely grand. The aunties who used to look down on Fang Yuan had all come. They said to Fang Yuan said, ¡°I knew it that you would be promising. Where is Heavenly Secret Pavilion? Can you tell aunty?¡± ¡°It¡¯s in Holy Capital.¡± ¡°Oh, how is it compared to Shanghai¡¯s Science and Technology University and Iron Castle Military?¡± ¡°It can¡¯t be compared,¡± Fang Yuan said calmly. Indeed, it could not be compared, because Heavenly Secret Pavilion was far more difficult and powerful than the schools that his aunt had mentioned. To non-trainers, Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a secret; but to trainers, it was a myth. One of Fang Yuan¡¯s uncles was a university professor. When he heard that Fang Yuan had been accepted by Heavenly Secret Pavilion, he could not believe his ears. One must know that students from Heavenly Secret Pavilion would not appear in the society. What did this mean? It meant that they were either working for the government or mysterious organizations. Compared to professions like university professors, these organizations hidden behind the scenes were the ones that truly maintained social order. It¡¯s only working for them that one was the true superior! This uncle was trying his best to curry favor with Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan actually had no impression of these relatives and friends. When his family didn¡¯t have money, they had never interacted with each other. Now that he was admitted to Heavenly Secret Pavilion, as long as there were friends with trainers in the family, they would all come. If there were no trainers in the family, they would think that it was a low grade academy and didn¡¯t give face to Fang Yuan¡¯s family, so they didn¡¯t come. At the admission banquet, there were also many influential people such as Dr. Wang of the University of Science and Technology, the instructor of the military academy, and even people from the four big families of Chuxin Town who had brought gifts, expressing their hope that Fang Yuan would forget about the past. This really opened Fang Yuan¡¯s relatives¡¯ eyes. A few months ago, Fang Yuan was an extremely ordinary student, but who would have thought that he was now a popular person. Those relatives who did not come would definitely regret it, his uncle thought. He poured Fang Yuan another cup of drink, using tea as a substitute for wine. He would not return until he was drunk. Fang Yuan did not care about these formalities at all. Right now, he only had one thought, and that was to start school soon. He could not wait to learn the skills of a trainer that Huang Ying had mentioned. That was the beginning of the path of a real trainer. Fang Yuan thought to himself, be it Du Lei or Pan Rui, when they met again, he had to beat them off. Although this was only his second dream (the first was to follow his father¡¯s footsteps), Fang Yuan also wanted to become the number one trainer in the world. Chapter 123 - Admission Time flew by and the first of August arrived. It was the day Fang Yuan reported to Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Fang Yuan had now discovered a wonderful use of the space. He was stuffed with a large pile of luggage from home. All he needed to do was to throw them into the space. What he needed to carry with him was only his backpack and some items for training. This time, he didn¡¯t need to summon the vine lizard to come to the arcane pavilion. As long as he stood in front of the obelisk, the pendant would guide him into Heavenly Secret Pavilion, which surprised the people in the coffee shop. ¡°Is that young man the one who brought the lizard last time?¡± ¡°Yes. Has he been accepted by Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve seen a few recently. Heavenly Secret Pavilion must have expanded its enrollment.¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion next year as well.¡± ¡°You also want to get in?¡± ¡°If they have expanded their enrollment, why can¡¯t I get in?¡± ¡°Are you stupid? Heavenly Secret Pavilion only expanded its enrollment from three people a year to nine people a year. What made you think that you can be one of the nine people?¡± ¡­ Fang Yuan carefully walked onto the bridge to enter the school. He deliberately bypassed the stone slab that would activate the iron golem¡¯s switch. The iron golem turned its head and looked at him, it scared him so much that he almost summoned the vine lizard. However, the iron golem did not attack him. As expected, without a magic core, it would not trigger the attack. ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re here.¡± Huang Ying was standing at the school gate. The other students had not come yet. Only Xu Fei was standing next to Ouyang Xinglan. ¡°Yo, Kid, you¡¯re here.¡± Ouyang Xinglan greeted Fang Yuan. Although they were not in the same academy, they could be considered getting along well. Xu Fei was different. He stared at Fang Yuan fiercely. If not for the fact that he could not beat Fang Yuan, he would have challenged him from afar. In the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, challenges were allowed. Any form of challenge was allowed. Both the parties could decide freely. If the losing party did not hand over the contents of the bet, he would be severely punished. ¡°Teacher Huang, Teacher Ouyang, Teacher Sima, Teacher Linghu, and¡­ that student, hello, everyone.¡± Fang Yuan was still a well mannered person. He smiled and greeted everyone. However, he really could not recall Xu Fei¡¯s name, so he used ¡°that student¡± instead. This had undoubtedly increased the hatred of ¡°that student¡±. ¡°Hmph, when my fire dragon levels up, I will definitely burn your vine lizard, that annoying fox, and that gryphon.¡± Xu Fei thought to himself. ¡°Hello.¡± Although the Earth group¡¯s and the Xuan group¡¯s teacher had no relationship with Fang Yuan, they also greeted him politely in response to his greeting. ¡°Fang Yuan, actually, there¡¯s something I¡¯ve wanted to ask you for some time.¡± Ouyang Xinglan said, ¡°Why is your pendant a three-star pendant?¡± ¡°Three-star?¡± Fang Yuan did not react for a moment, then only did he realize that he might be referring to the certification of a level three arcane realm. ¡°You mean the level-three arcane realm?¡± Ouyang nodded and said, ¡°As far as I know, level-three arcane realms are generally not open to ordinary people. Among the students admitted this time, only you and Su Han received the level-three certification, while the other students received level-two. He is a descendant of an aristocratic family and the resources and connections he has are beyond your imagination. How did you do it?¡± Fang Yuan did not know how to answer. He had relied on the system to upgrade a level two arcane realm to that of level three. However, he could not say it out loud, so he found an excuse and said, ¡°It was our school principal who helped me through his connections. I don¡¯t know why his connections are so deep.¡± He looked at Fang Yuan suspiciously. Although there were many flaws in his answer, he could not think of anything wrong with it. Fang Yuan was not from an aristocratic family. Heavenly Secret Pavilion had investigated him when they were recruiting students. His father was an archaeologist, and his mother was an ordinary teacher. The Fang Yuan family did not have any ancient bloodlines. The only difference was that when he awakened his pet beast, he obtained a silver mid-grade pet beast. It could be considered as an gifted talent. Huang Ying said to the three teachers, ¡°My student is already here. I¡¯ll make a move first.¡± Without waiting for their response, Huang Ying said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Can you fly?¡± Fang Yuan did not answer Huang Ying in words but directly summoned his Xiao Jin. ¡°So beautiful.¡± Huang Ying smiled slightly. He also summoned his pet beast, a blue phoenix, ¡°If you lose the way, you won¡¯t be able to find the dormitory.¡± After saying that, Huang Ying¡¯s phoenix flew into the distance at an extremely fast speed. Fang Yuan did not have to give way too much, so he bent down to protect Xiao Jin and followed. ¡°It¡¯s so flashy,¡± Ouyang Xing Lan commented. ¡°My grass flying is the best!¡± Huang Ying rode the phoenix while the wind was blowing in the sky, making him feel very comfortable. What he liked the most was the feeling of flying in the sky. Turning back to look at Fang Yuan, Huang Ying could not help but laugh. He deliberately slowed down because his pet was a star brilliance low-grade Heavenly Sound Phoenix. There was a difference of several magnitudes between him and the steel gryphon. ¡­ Ten minutes later, they landed on the top of a mountain. This was the dormitory and training area of their Huang group. ¡°You spent 16 minutes and 55 seconds. You are the worst student in our group,¡± Huang Ying said to Fang Yuan after he landed. Fang Yuan did not expect the phoenix to be so fast. He had already tried his best to catch up. As Huang Ying had just said ¡°the worst student,¡± which also meant¡­ At this moment, a girl wearing a star hairpin appeared in front of the dormitory building. When she saw Fang Yuan and Huang Ying, she warmly greeted them, ¡°Master Huang Ying, is this the new junior?¡± Seeing Huang Ying nod, she reached out her hand to Fang Yuan and smiled, ¡°Hello, Junior. I¡¯m Han Xinyu, a sophomore. What¡¯s your name?¡± ¡°My name is Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°There are too few students in Huang group. If you don¡¯t come, I¡¯ll be the only one living on this mountain. Although I have Xiao Yu and Xiao Rou to accompany me, sometimes it¡¯s still too scary.¡± Xinyu was the kind of person who was friendly with others. She was the type that Fang Yuan admired, for he did not want to live with a pervert like Xu Fei, or a quiet person. ¡°Are there only two students in Huang group?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. ¡°No, there are three in the third year and five in the fourth year. Including you and me, there are a total of 10 people in our group. However, they have gone out for an internship to look for star brilliance pet beasts. I am the only one left to learn the basic theoretical knowledge.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s stop chatting for now, Xinyu, bring Fang Yuan to the dormitory and let him pick whichever room he likes. Then, bring him to pick up the textbooks and the entrance materials.¡± Huang Ying interrupted Xinyu¡¯s as it seemed that she still had a lot to say. There was still a lot of time left. Huang Ying hoped that they could focus on the important matters, especially Fang Yuan. He was looking forward to it. ¡°Yes.¡± Xinyu stood up straight and saluted. This funny action had relieved Fang Yuan¡¯s nervousness. Senior sister was also an interesting person. Chapter 124 - Silver Pegasus Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio She led Fang Yuan to the apartment. There were three villas on the mountain, each with two floors. As the students were very good, everyone could choose their own rooms they liked, Fang Yuan chose the villa that no one lived in. He did not want to mix with others as he had his own cultivation arrangements and plans, not because he did not fit in. ¡°Speaking of which, where are you from, Junior?¡± Xinyu smiled. ¡°I¡¯m from Chuxin Town. It is a very remote town, so you might not have heard of it.¡± Fang Yuan did not know how to describe his hometown. He was not good at this. ¡°I¡¯m also from a small town.¡± Xinyu thought that Fang Yuan would feel inferior because he came from a small town to Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°Actually, most of the members of Huang group are from small towns. It seems that they are far away from big cities and the hustle and bustle. That¡¯s why they like to communicate with pet beasts.¡± After putting away her luggage, Xin Yu asked Fang Yuan to follow her to the cliff. She then asked, ¡°Your pet beast gryphon just now, what was its grade?¡± He couldn¡¯t be bothered to answer and directly passed Xiao Jin¡¯s information to Xinyu. Xinyu saw the information showed that Xiao Jin was of platinum intermediate-grade, and its level was only level three low-tier. No wonder its speed was so slow. She then decided to give Fang Yuan his first lesson in the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°What do you see in Xiao Jin? Is it a mount or a meat shield?¡± These words made Fang Yuan a little confused. He did not quite understand what Xin Yu meant, and could only speak out his inner thoughts, ¡°I have never treated it as a mount or a meat shield. Many times, it can be considered my friend. It¡¯s just that it is bigger and faster than me, so I would occasionally ride on it.¡± ¡°Haha, what a innocent answer,¡± Xinyu laughed. Then, she closed her eyes and summoned her pet, a beautiful Pegasus. [ Scientific name: Silver Pegasus ] [ Bloodline: None ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Level: Level 7 high-tier ] [ Attributes: Beast, wind, light ] [ Positioning: Support ] Without waiting for Fang Yuan to ask, Xin Yu sent the information of the Pegasus to him. ¡°A Pegasus that only supports?¡± Seeing that there was only one item in the positioning, Fang Yuan felt incredulous. If a person only had a support pet, then he was not suitable to be a trainer at all. Fang Yuan thought of Zhao Ren. His pet was a mathematical ape that could help him process the information, but forget about fighting. Therefore, although Zhao Ren had a pet, he only focused on scientific research, that was why he could develop such a heaven-defying existence like the evolution potion. ¡°Yes, pure support. You didn¡¯t expect that, did you?¡± Riding on the Pegasus, Xinyu was like a heavenly knight from another world, exuding a holy and inviolable temperament. Only then did Fang Yuan notice Xinyu¡¯s appearance. In the real world, it should be the level of popularity of tens of thousands of people. ¡°Do you know why it was designated as a pure support?¡± ¡°Why?¡± Fang Yuan believed that he had definitely seen Pegasus before. Pegasus itself had a support positioning, but there must be some which were good at offense and control. ¡°It¡¯s because¡­ what our Huang group learned is to specialize the positioning of pets.¡± At this point, Xinyu had already flown into the air on Pegasus. ¡°If you want to know more, try to catch up with me.¡± At this point, she even turned around and made a funny face. However, she did not immediately fly up, waiting for Fang Yuan to get ready. Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin clearly knew about their bet. It let out a long cry to the sky as if to tell fang yuan, ¡°I can.¡± Fang Yuan stroked Xiao Jin¡¯s head and stepped onto its body. Then, he lowered his body and stuck his entire body onto Xiao Jin¡¯s to avoid being blown away by the airflow. ¡°Are You ready?¡± Xinyu glanced at Fang Yuan. She seemed to be completely unaffected by the airflow. Her clothes and movements did not change, just like how she was usually riding a horse. Seeing Fang Yuan nod, the Pegasus immediately flapped its wings. In Fang Yuan¡¯s line of sight, only a white light was left¡­ This speed was too exaggerating! Thinking about it, Xiao Jin still caught up at the first moment. However, that speed was not like the speed of the wind, but the speed of light. Xiao Jin chased after it and discovered that the other party had already disappeared. However, Fang Yuan knew where his destination was. Although he was a little frustrated, he still had to go to the academy¡¯s outdoor training ground to meet Xinyu. ¡­ ¡°You¡¯re finally here. I¡¯ve been waiting for you for 10 minutes. If you were the boy chasing me, you would have been passed.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this first.¡± Fang Yuan knew that arguing with a girl was an extremely irrational act. He wanted to know what method Xinyu had used to fly over. Her posture did not look like she was gliding or flying. Instead, it looked like she was sprinting. ¡°Why is your Pegasus so fast?¡± ¡°Skills,¡± Xin Yu answered indifferently. ¡°What skills does your gryphon have? Or perhaps, among your pet beasts, is there a skill that it can speed up itself?¡± Up to this point, the first thing that came to Fang Yuan¡¯s mind was the gale hound and Ah Li¡¯s wind chasing skill. It was to stack a wind attribute speed buff on its body, but¡­ ¡°The pet¡¯s body is tough, so it¡¯s understandable. You¡¯re just an ordinary person, how can you not get injured without the pet¡¯s skill? With such speed, you¡¯re actually not blown away?¡± This was the biggest puzzle in Fang Yuan¡¯s heart, one must know that if the gryphon flew a little faster, Fang Yuan would have to grab Xiao Jin tightly to prevent himself from falling. ¡°There are many methods, but the method used by our Huang group is to combine the trainer and the pet into one. As for how to do it, you will soon understand. Let¡¯s go get the admission materials now.¡± Xinyu did not explain further. Instead, she pulled Fang Yuan to a classroom with an open window and knocked on the window. She said, ¡°Teacher, a set of books and material bags for the freshman of the Huang group. Also, please give me the cultivation materials for this month.¡± Fang Yuan followed behind Xinyu and saw an old man inside. After organizing, he took out a stack of books and two yellow paper bags. ¡°Isn¡¯t this Huang group¡¯s Xinyu? Aren¡¯t you afraid that someone will snatch the materials from you today?¡± The old man chuckled, making Fang Yuan feel that this person was quite annoying. For some reason, his first instinct was such. Xinyu ignored him. Instead, she handed the books and a bag to Fang Yuan and said, ¡°Take a look at these books when you are back to the dormitory. There will be a public class every week, and the contents of the books will be explained. As for this bag¡­¡± ¡°As for that bag, let us take care of it? Hahaha.¡± It was a few students in uniforms. The word ¡°Earth¡± was printed on their chests. Chapter 125 - Advancement Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xin Yu¡¯s expression was very complicated. She was very reluctant, but she had no choice but to hand over her bag to the person in the lead. Then, she looked at him with a bitter gaze, and said, ¡°Take my advancement pill, but Fang Yuan is a new student who just came to this school. He¡¯s still under protection, so you can¡¯t snatch things from him. Otherwise, Teacher Ouyang will definitely not let you off.¡± ¡°Hahahaha.¡± The man in the lead had a golden hair style from anime. He snatched the bag and smiled. ¡°Actually, it¡¯s okay if I don¡¯t snatch your cultivation materials. As long as you be my girlfriend, I¡¯m not much better than your previous useless boyfriend¡­¡± As he said this, Xinyu¡¯s fist almost hit his face. Although he caught it, his expression was no longer as frivolous as before. ¡°The next time you say something like that, I¡¯ll definitely kill you,¡± Xinyu said coldly. Her expression and tone made him hold back his words. ¡°Hmph, just those trash from your Huang group? You just have to be the protectors of the peaceful pet beasts.¡± He let go of Xinyu¡¯s fist and pushed her onto Fang Yuan. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Wait, who told you to leave?¡± Xinyu turned around in surprise. It was obviously Fang Yuan who said that. ¡°Fang Yuan, don¡¯t argue with them. There¡¯s still opportunity in the future¡­¡± Xinyu quickly pulled Fang Yuan away, as she did not want Fang Yuan, a new student, to fall out with the seniors of Earth group on the first day of school. In school, challenges were very normal. Once one party raised a challenge, the other party could only choose to submit or accept the challenge. In her heart, Fang Yuan was just a child who did not know anything. How could he be a match for these battle maniacs of the Earth group? ¡°Oh?¡± The students who had just turned away turned around when they heard Fang Yuan¡¯s words. ¡°How do you talk to your brother Zhu Xu?¡± Fang Yuan was surrounded in the middle. Xinyu wanted to pull Fang Yuan away, but she was also pushed onto the ground by them. Fang Yuan looked at the students in front of him. If he did not guess wrongly, their leader was the one who bullied Xinyu just now. It was Zhu Xu. Zhu Xu looked at Fang Yuan contemptuously. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t even have a uniform yet. It was obvious that he was a new student who had just come to report today. One must know that Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s uniform was actually a type of training equipment. It would increase the user¡¯s attributes as the user¡¯s own abilities increased. It was a top-notch growth-type equipment which could not be bought with any amount of money. ¡°You are a new student of Huang group? Remember my name, my name is Zhu Xu. Starting next month, all of your materials will be mine. Otherwise, none of your pet beasts will be able to live.¡± Zhu Xu¡¯s face was almost pressed against Fang Yuan¡¯s face, it made him feel extremely uncomfortable. ¡°What if I don¡¯t?¡± Since his rebirth, Fang Yuan had never seen such an arrogant person. Even though Heavenly Secret Pavilion advocated the survival of the fittest, everyone was still a university student. After graduating, they would still see each other every day, must this be the situation now? Xinyu got up from the ground and stood in front of Fang Yuan. ¡°Don¡¯t go too far. Do you really think there¡¯s nobody in Huang group?¡± ¡°Get lost, b*tch.¡± Zhu Xu was obviously used to being arrogant and domineering in school. When he saw that Fang Yuan did not give him face at all, he felt very embarrassed. He did not care about Xinyu¡¯s appearance anymore and wanted to slap her. Xinyu closed her eyes, but the pain did not come. Fang Yuan blocked his attack with one hand. ¡°You trash, do you only know how to fight? Aren¡¯t you a trainer? Let¡¯s have a duel.¡± ¡°Duel?¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s words, Zhu Xu first turned to look at his companions, then looked at Fang Yuan. He laughed so hard that his body bent back and forth, as if it was the funniest joke they had ever heard. ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re crazy. It¡¯s not wise to duel with them now. They will definitely snatch your skill-reconditioning pills and advancement pills!¡± Xinyu almost shouted out, but she knew that it was already too late. It was because once anything related to ¡°fight¡± was mentioned, it meant to challenge the other party, which no matter what happened, no one could stop it. This was the natural law of the world where the strong preyed on the weak. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll fight with you. If you lose, give me your whole bag of materials,¡± Zhu Xu said with a ferocious look. ¡°These materials?¡± Fang Yuan opened the bag and held them in his hand. [ Skill regeneration pill: No grade. After consuming it, the pet will gain a new skill that the pet can possess. ] [ Advancement pill: Raise the pet¡¯s grade by one level. ] At this moment, a system notification sounded: [ Ding! Advancement pill detected. Grade: Platinum pinnacle ] [ Do you wish to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose to increase from the following ways. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain the platinum pinnacle advancement pill. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and obtain the diamond low-grade advancement pill. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect, and obtain the platinum pinnacle advancement pill. Advance to level 20. ] The main function of the advancement pill was to raise the pet beast¡¯s level by one level. However, the highest level that could be raised was related to its level. For example, the platinum pinnacle advancement pill, the highest level was to raise the pet beast¡¯s level to platinum pinnacle. As for the third option, it was literally understood that no matter what grade the pet beast was now, as long as it used the enhanced advancement pill, it could immediately evolve to platinum pinnacle level. For Fang Yuan, the most important thing now was undoubtedly to obtain a diamond pet beast. Option two. The originally sparkling and translucent advancement pill was now in Fang Yuan¡¯s hands, showing a light blue glow. Zhu Xu and Xinyu both saw this advancement pill and couldn¡¯t help but widen their eyes. ¡°Did this administrator stuff the wrong pill? Why would a diamond-grade advancement pill appear!¡± ¡°Do you want it?¡± Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and showed the two pills to Zhu Xu. ¡°Of course, they¡¯re already mine.¡± After saying that, Zhu Xu wanted to stretch out his hand to snatch it, but was stopped by a golden light. ¡°D*mn the rookie protection period!¡± Zhu Xu thought to himself. The rookie protection period was a rule specially made by the principal. All the materials and equipment that freshmen had when they first entered the school could not be snatched away unless they were willing to accept the challenge. Zhu Xu thought to himself, Fang Yuan had already raised the challenge just now, but unfortunately, he did not accept it in time. He quickly said, ¡°I accept your challenge!¡± But it was already too late. Just now, Fang Yuan summoned his highest level pet beast, the vine lizard, and handed it the diamond advancement pill. After the vine lizard consumed the advancement pill, its entire body was surrounded by green and brown light. It was undergoing evolution! Although it did not rely on materials to evolve into a high-level complete form, it undoubtedly allowed Fang Yuan to step into a new height ¡ª Diamond trainer! Chapter 126 - The Confident Diamond Pet Beast [ Scientific name: Lotus Giant Lizard ] [ Bloodline: Lutania ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Attributes: Grass, earth, reptile ] [ Positioning: Attack, control ] [ Skills: 1. Whip, 2. Tongue, 3. Lotus throwing knife, 4. Overlord body, 5. Devour ] Seeing the vine lizard evolve into the lotus giant lizard, Zhu Xu was both angry and anxious. He was angry at himself for not accepting Fang Yuan¡¯s challenge the moment he challenged him. Instead, he wasted his time talking nonsense with him, which caused him to miss out on a diamond advancement pill. He was anxious that Fang Yuan had actually used such a precious treasure on the evolution of a trashy pet beast. In his eyes, the vine lizard had neither speed nor explosive power. It was completely like a tank. The so-called tank-type pet beast could be upgraded as long as it was given time to slowly farm monsters. Unlike the assassin-type pet beast, which could only attack a single target at a time. It was even more difficult to complete the upgrade through battle. Zhu Xu sighed, but it was already too late to turn back the situation. The other skill regeneration pill could be used to regenerate another skill for his pet beast. ¡°The challenge has been formed.¡± A strange voice sounded in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. Then, Fang Yuan and Zhu Xu entered the competition space. This place was similar to the virtual arena. It would also display Fang Yuan¡¯s basic information on a space screen. [ Name: Fang Yuan ] [ Student level: 0] [ Credit: 0] [ GPA: 0] On the other side, Zhu Xu was [ Student level: LV2, credits: 4775, GPA: 5] Huang Ying seemed to have mentioned the use of these credits and GPA points before. They could be used to exchange for items. The method of obtaining credits was relatively simple. Regardless if it was learning, cultivation, or battle, one could obtain credits. GPA points would be more difficult to obtain. One needed to have a special contribution to the academy. Otherwise, one would only be able to obtain a minimum of 5 GPA from the academy every year. This also meant that the Zhu Xu in front of him was actually a poor student. He was just maintaining the minimum GPA. ¡°I took out a skill regenerating pill as wager. Shouldn¡¯t you take out an item of the same level as the wager? Only then would it be fair.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll take out a platinum pinnacle advancement pill to bet with you. Even though you can¡¯t beat me, Haha.¡± Zhu Xu¡¯s nearly crazy expression was displayed vividly on the big screen. Although they were fighting in the space, the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had a big screen that live broadcasted the content of the battle. This was also the principal¡¯s setting. According to him, students needed to experience constant battles to grow, and watching battles was also a special cultivation method. ¡°Fang Yuan, you have to win!¡± Holding her pendant, Xinyu was troubled as she couldn¡¯t protect her junior. At this moment, Ouyang Xinglan was bringing his two new recruits to come and collect their freshman items. He was a more responsible teacher. ¡°Oh? That Kid is fighting with someone else again.¡± Xu Fei saw the two people fighting on the big screen. One was Fang Yuan, and the other was someone he had never seen before. ¡°Who do you think will win?¡± Ouyang Xinglan wanted to see what Xu Fei was thinking as he seemed very interested. ¡°Although I¡¯ve only fought with Fang Yuan once, and I don¡¯t know the man in front of me,¡± Xu Fei suddenly laughed frantically, ¡°but I think Fang Yuan will win and beat that kid up.¡± ¡°What made you think so?¡± To be honest, Ouyang Xinglan was also leaning towards Fang Yuan¡¯s winning because that kid called Zhu Xu was really not worthy of his attention. Zhu Xu was simply a hooligan among the geniuses. He had chosen the most ordinary way to muddle through life. This was something that even his teacher had a huge headache over. To be honest, the academy actually completely turned a blind eye to the fact that they were fighting over cultivation materials. As long as it was in accordance with the rules of the arcane, it was fine. However, student like Zhu Xu who relied on snatching other people¡¯s level-up pills, and other level-up related materials to level up, but did not pay attention to improving his own combat training, was not welcomed by the teachers. It could not be helped because Zhu Xu had fought many times and had a lot of materials. His pet beast was also among the best in grade two of the Earth group. However, it was only among the best. Compared to Liu Changsheng, who was in the first place, and Gu Liang, who was in the second place, the gap was not just a little. ¡°Su Han, what about you?¡± Ouyang Xinglan thought that since he had asked Xu Fei, he could not show indifference to the other student. Su Han looked at the two of them with a cold expression. They had already summoned each other¡¯s pet beasts. He said, ¡°I also think that Fang Yuan will win. I can¡¯t explain why.¡± Good heavens, the two freshmen from the Heaven group had high hopes for Fang Yuan. These words were extremely harsh to the ears of the students from the Earth group. After all, they were also the second strongest group in the academy, not to mention that they were already sophomores. Fang Yuan, on the other hand, was a newbie who did not even have the uniform of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. How could he possibly defeat Zhu Xu? The camera returned to the competition ground. Fang Yuan summoned his strongest pet, the lotus giant lizard that had just completed its evolution. The current lotus giant lizard was already three meters tall, close to the height of a floor. On its back was no longer a flower bud, instead, it was a blooming lotus flower. The vines had also changed from four to eight, making it look extremely terrifying. Zhu Xu¡¯s pet was: [ Scientific name: Golden Condor Sacred Armor Beast ] [ Bloodline: Beetle ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Level: Level 10 intermediate-tier ] [ Attributes: Earth, reptile ] [ Positioning: Attack, defense, control ] [ Skills: ??? ] In the arena, they could see each other¡¯s attributes, but their skills were hidden. The sacred armor beast was actually a huge golden beetle with sharp thorns on its shell. It was obvious that it was the nemesis of physical pet beasts. ¡°Fang Yuan, how did you manage to continuously raise my grade?¡± The lotus giant lizard asked Fang Yuan curiously. When it met Fang Yuan, it had just lost its master. At that time, it was only a platinum high-grade minion which couldn¡¯t even defeat a demonized gale hound. But now, in just a short month, it had crossed two levels from platinum high to diamond. For a trainer, it might not be able to feel it, but for a pet beast, it could clearly see that the world was completely different. ¡°I have my methods. As long as you can maintain your winning rate, not to mention diamond and star brilliance, I can even raise you to the legendary level.¡± Fang Yuan smiled confidently, ¡°The premise is that you have to help me defeat the opponent in front of me. It looks like it has a lot of battle experience.¡± ¡°Just this little bug in front of you?¡± The lotus giant lizard laughed loudly, making Zhu Xu and the sacred armor beast in the arena look at a loss. This was because in Zhu Xu¡¯s understanding, a trainer might show such an expression, but why would it appear on a pet beast? Could it be that diamond¡¯s pet beast had began to show consciousness? Chapter 127 - Instant Kill Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Fang Yuan, you still don¡¯t understand my true strength, but I have already recognized you as my master.¡± The lotus giant lizard fell onto the ground, the lotus flowers on its back blossomed with seven-colored light, and then began to spin. ¡°Huh?¡± Fang Yuan hadn¡¯t given the order to attack, but the giant lizard had already prepared to attack. ¡°Don¡¯t call me by my scientific name anymore. It¡¯s too low-level. My name is ¡ª Nero.¡± When the lotus giant lizard said this, the lotus petals on its back flew out like a flurry of knives. ¡°Sacred Armor Beast, use the holy shield.¡± Zhu Xu saw that the other party had launched an attack and was the first to attack, so he could only passively defend. The sacred armor beast also rolled itself up, using its shell to block the petals, and a layer of faint golden light could be clearly seen with the naked eye. The scattered petals scratched its shell, making a ¡°ping¡± sound, as if hard objects were violently colliding. ¡°Boring trick.¡± As Nero ridiculed the other party from afar, its eight tentacle vines grabbed the scarab beast tightly in their hands, and then¡­ It used brutal force to turn the sacred armor beast back from its curled state to its normal state! ¡°What!¡± Not only Zhu Xu, even Ouyang Xinglan and the others who were watching the match were surprised. How could a pet beast do such an attack? Didn¡¯t this mean that any defensive posture was useless in front of it? ¡°You.¡± After the sacred armor beast returned to its original state, Nero stood up, grabbed the scarab, and was about to stuff it into its mouth. ¡°I surrender!¡± Zhu Xu saw that his scarab was about to be swallowed alive by Nero, the giant reptile, and quickly shouted the order to surrender. After all, he had spent a lot of materials and time to cultivate this scarab. If it was eaten, then he would lose everything, and those who had their materials stolen by him would definitely not let him go. As Zhu Xu shouted, the scarab beetle and the lotus flower giant lizard went to the starting positions of the battle. The screen displayed: Winner: Fang Yuan Obtained credits: 50 points Obtained reward: Level-up pill (platinum pinnacle) Then, the two of them returned to the real world. ¡°I knew it.¡± Although Xu Fei was also very surprised by Fang Yuan¡¯s attack method, he knew that Fang Yuan was a trainer who used strange moves to win. He also lost because of this, so Zhu Xu¡¯s loss was not unjustified. On the other hand, after Zhu Xu returned from the space, he totally lost face. He took out a level-up pill and threw it to Fang Yuan like a piece of trash. Then, he ran away without calling his subordinates. ¡°Who is he? He beat up the senior of the Earth group on the first day of school?¡± At this time, the students who came to collect the leveling materials gathered one after another. They had also witnessed the battle just now. They were both diamond low-grade pet beasts, but the level of the lotus giant lizard was not even as high as the sacred armor beast. How did it kill the other party in an instant? No one knew the reason, even Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan had originally wanted to use the tactic of attrition to exhaust the sacred armor beast¡¯s mental power before giving it a fatal blow. However, this lotus giant lizard, now called Nero, had a strong sense of self-awareness. Thinking back, he was not like a pet beast, but like an elder, guiding Fang Yuan to fight. He even subconsciously acted to protect Fang Yuan. ¡°If there¡¯s nothing else, let me go back to the space.¡± Nero looked at the confused Fang Yuan and said, ¡°I still have to go back and study this power. You just need to know that today, I¡¯m still far from reaching my limit.¡± Fang Yuan nodded, and Nero disappeared into the real world. ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re amazing.¡± Xinyu hugged Fang Yuan happily, not caring about her identity at all. ¡°Ugh.¡± It was Fang Yuan, the pure innocent youth, who was a little embarrassed, gently pushed Xinyu away. Xinyu noticed that she had lost her composure, but due to her personality, so she did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she said, ¡°Now I think you¡¯re qualified to court me.¡± ¡°Hey!¡± Although they had only been together for two or three hours, Fang Yuan knew that Xinyu was definitely joking with him. But would others think so? Ouyang Xinglan acted as if they were friends. He walked over and patted Fang Yuan on the shoulder, saying, ¡°Young man you¡¯re indeed amazing. You have only been in school for less than a day, but you¡¯ve beaten up a senior and even found a beautiful girlfriend. Your future is boundless.¡± Seeing Ouyang Xinglan, Fang Yuan did not dare to be impolite. He lowered his body slightly and said, ¡°Teacher Ouyang, you must be joking. Actually, I couldn¡¯t stand Zhu Xu stealing the resources of our Huang group and even hit my senior. That¡¯s why I fought back. It wasn¡¯t me who started the fight first.¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m not the Director of the Education Department. It¡¯s normal for students to fight.¡± Ouyang Xinglan did not continue to chat with Fang Yuan. Xu Fei and Su Han followed behind him like sidekicks to collect the new student admission materials. ¡°Your name is Fang Yuan, right?¡± ¡°Yes?¡± ¡°I¡¯m also a freshman. I¡¯m Xu Tianhua from the Xuan group.¡± After Ouyang Xinglan left, a boy who was about the same age as Fang Yuan came out from among the students. He was dressed in oriental clothing that gave off the feeling of an ancient costume. Did the people from the Xuan group like this style? Fang Yuan could not help but think about it because their instructor Linghu also had a similar style. Seeing that Xu Tianhua didn¡¯t have any ill intentions, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t mind making one more friend. ¡­ At this time, Xinyu and Fang Yuan were preparing to fly back to the dormitory area. They had a lot of questions to ask each other, so they slowed down. ¡°Senior sister¡­¡± ¡°Fang Yuan¡­¡± Almost at the same time, they wanted to ask each other questions. Then, Fang Yuan coughed a little embarrassedly and said, ¡°Senior sister, you go first.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Xinyu was a straightforward person, she asked, ¡°How did you have a diamond low-grade level-up pill? I don¡¯t believe that old man had given you wrongly. The level-up pill is a very high-grade material. The platinum pinnacle level-up pill takes at least two years to be refined. It¡¯s given to you because you¡¯re a freshman. The diamond level-up pill takes five years to be refined. Why would it be given to a freshman?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know either.¡± Fang Yuan after all couldn¡¯t tell her what the system had done. She wouldn¡¯t believe it even if he had told her. After all, there was no concept of web novels in this world. ¡°Okay.¡± Although she didn¡¯t believe it, Xinyu couldn¡¯t say anything. She could only think that it was a mistake. The level-up pill was supposed to be given to a fourth-year student. ¡°Then what did you want to ask me?¡± ¡°It¡¯s the human-beast integration skill that you mentioned earlier, senior.¡± Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t remember what his senior had said, but he remembered that it was something like the human-beast integration skill. ¡°Are you a pervert?¡± Xinyu looked at Fang Yuan with disgust written on her face. Chapter 128 - Xinyu’s Test ¡°So you¡¯re talking about the trainer¡¯s buffs.¡± Xinyu finally realized that she had thought wrongly after Fang Yuan¡¯s explanation. She could not help but blush, then, she pretended as if nothing had happened and said, ¡°The so-called buffs are just like the pet beasts you have.¡± ¡°For example my Youlan, which is the silver Pegasus. Her skills include flash, which breaks through the speed limit. An ordinary gryphon can fly at a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour. The maximum speed of most of the bird-type pets is 322 kilometers per hour. As for the reason, I only understand that if a pet beast¡¯s speed exceeds the maximum speed, its body will collapse. ¡°However, after Youlan uses flash, its speed can reach 350 kilometers per hour. Its body structure will change, and it exists like light. At this time, what would happen if an ordinary person were to be on its body?¡± ¡°He will fall?¡± Fang Yuan saw that Xinyu was asking him, he just casually gave an answer. If he had known, he would not have asked Xinyu. ¡°A human body will fall apart at this speed.¡± Xinyu said seriously, ¡°Don¡¯t think that the air looks like it doesn¡¯t have a physical body. In fact, when it is fast enough, the damage that they can cause is not less than that of a knife¡¯s edge. This is because if you want to break through the resistance, you need to break their tension¡­¡± Hearing Xin Yu start to talk about physics, Fang Yuan could not help but feel a big headache. Among all the science subjects, physics was the worst. Moreover, the physics in this world was quite different from the physics in the original world. At least in that world, there were no pets that ¡°gave birth to energy out of thin air¡±. ¡°¡­¡± After a long session, Xinyu finally got to the point. ¡°The first trainer skill you want to learn when you come to our academy is [ listening ] .¡± ¡°Listening?¡± When Fang Yuan heard this name, he felt dizzy. It sounded like a very profound skill, the lowest form. ¡°Yes.¡± Xinyu did not know how Fang Yuan felt, but she enjoyed the feeling of being a teacher. ¡°You have to feel the changes in the pet¡¯s body. What you can do is that its status will also be added to you.¡± What? Fang Yuan looked at Xinyu in disbelief. In the past, he only knew that trainers could add status, buffs, and even give pet beasts strength. But this was the first time he heard that a pet could directly enhance a human. ¡°For example, after Youlan used flash, I received this skill buff, so I can go beyond the physical speed limit with it.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan felt that it was a little ridiculous. Could it be that the trainer had to personally fight? Wouldn¡¯t that be the perfect combination then? ¡°However, you have to understand one thing. Most of the skills that [ listening ] can accept are supportive buffs such as acceleration and mental power enhancement. If it¡¯s an offensive buff, it¡¯s impossible for humans to do it.¡± Finally, she saw clearly where Fang Yuan¡¯s confusion was, and patiently explained. The new knowledge that Fang Yuan received today had completely opened up his unknown territory. Whether it was what the lotus lizard had told him or the knowledge that Xinyu had shared with him, Fang Yuan felt that there were too many unknown areas in this world. ¡­ Returning to his dormitory, which Fang Yuan¡¯s was a single villa with a swimming pool. As for the ingredients in the fridge, everything was available. Every week, there would be logistics staff specialized in transporting the ingredients replenishing the food in the fridge. At the same time, they will dispose those which were about to expire. Fang Yuan lay on the bench next to the swimming pool, leisurely flipping through the book ¡°Pet¡¯s Skill Exploration and Research¡±. Ah Li, Pick, Xiao Ying, and the other pet beasts were playing in the pool at the side. As he did not need to fight, he did not need to constantly provide mental power. While he was resting, Fang Yuan could summon up to 200 pet beasts. This was a special ability given to him by the system. That¡¯s right, he was a dual pet trainer. With the support of the system, he had become an unprecedented 200 pet trainers. As long as he strengthened his mental power to its limit, he alone would be an entire army. ¡°Fang Yuan.¡± Xinyu went back to her dorm to tidy up, then ran over to look for Fang Yuan. She wanted to exchange some combat skills with him. When she walked into the villa, she saw Fang Yuan lying on the beach chair in his swimming trunks. She couldn¡¯t help but blush. ¡°Strange, why do you blush when it¡¯s just a beach costume?¡± Xinyu herself didn¡¯t understand, but when she looked at Fang Yuan again, he had already put down the book and looked at her curiously. ¡­ ¡°You have so many pet beasts! Can you summon them at the same time?¡± Ah Li was obviously someone who knew how to please others. It kept rubbing its face against Xinyu¡¯s. It seemed that they were already very good friends. Meanwhile, the gale hound and the shadow wolf, two canine pet beasts, were sleeping at the door. Moreover, their ears were moving. No matter what happened, it could not escape their surveillance. Fang Yuan thought to himself, this woman is so strange. Why didn¡¯t she cultivate and come to other people¡¯s dorms? Fortunately, I¡¯m not an exhibitionist. Otherwise, if I were to take off my clothes and swim in the pool, my reputation would be ruined. After Xinyu, Ah Li, and Pick had played enough, she looked at Fang Yuan seriously and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I now know that you¡¯re very strong. Can you teach me a little bit of fighting skills? I don¡¯t want to lose in the college tournament next month. I want to beat Zhu Xu fair and square.¡± Fang Yuan scratched his head and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know how to teach you battle techniques either. A lot of times, I fight based on Instinct.¡± Instinct? Xinyu thought that this might be a talent. ¡°Then can you practice with me for a while using your lotus giant lizard?¡± ¡°You Mean Nero, let me ask.¡± Fang Yuan remembered that before returning to the dormitory, Nero had told him not to disturb him for no reason. ¡°Ask¡­ ?¡± ¡°Yes, Nero, the lotus giant lizard said that it is very busy now and has no time to come out. If you want to practice, the three-tailed spirit fox is enough. If you can defeat the three-tailed spirit fox, it is more than enough to defeat the sacred armor beast.¡± Fang Yuan repeated Nero¡¯s words completely. He was a little confused. Ah Li was a platinum intermediate-grade pet beast, how could it be compared to the diamond low-grade sacred armor beast? ¡°Then where is the three-tailed spirit fox?¡± Xinyu¡¯s eyes were sparkling. It sounded like the three-tailed spirit fox was a very powerful and fierce beast. It was her favorite type. Fang Yuan pointed at Ah Li, who was rubbing against her arms. ¡°Isn¡¯t it always by your side?¡± ¡°Is this the one?¡± Xin Yu had just tested it. Ah Li was only a platinum intermediate-grade pet beast. ¡°Can it defeat the scarab beast?¡± ¡°We¡¯ll know if we try.¡± Fang Yuan yawned out of boredom. He had finally discovered Xin Yu¡¯s weakness ¡ª undecisive. Instead of being hesitant, it was better to give it a try. Chapter 129 - Huang Group’s Trainer Skill Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After being silent for a while, Xin Yu finally spoke. ¡°Fang Yuan? Please help me this time.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. ¡°No problem. Ah Li. are you ready?¡± When Ah Li heard Fang Yuan¡¯s order, it immediately turned from being idle to combat mode. It looked at Xinyu sharply. ¡°Ah Li, right? No matter how good of a friend we are, please don¡¯t show any mercy in the following battle.¡± Xinyu winked at Ah Li. Ah Li was angry, as this was clearly its exclusive skill ¡ª charm. Fang Yuan said to the gale hound and the shadow wolf lying at the door, ¡°Since the battle is going to start, you have to return to the space.¡± They helplessly let out a low howl and disappeared from the real world with Fang Yuan¡¯s consciousness. At random, Fang Yuan turned his head and smiled at Xinyu, ¡°Senior, let¡¯s begin now.¡± ¡°Okay, but let me say this beforehand, don¡¯t show any mercy.¡± Xinyu looked at Fang Yuan with a determined gaze. Although Fang Yuan was a junior who had just entered the academy, he had defeated Zhu Xu, who was ranked third in the second year of the Earth group with an overwhelming advantage. This had made Xinyu admire this junior. ¡°Of course, I won¡¯t show any mercy.¡± The biggest difference between her and Fang Yuan was that Xinyu could use trainer skill. Now that she thought about it, the lotus giant lizard¡¯s strength was too strong. The sacred armor beast didn¡¯t even use trainer skill. Fang Yuan sighed and said, ¡°Are you sure you can show mercy?¡± ¡°D*mn it, don¡¯t look down on your senior sister.¡± After that, Xinyu¡¯s spirit was obviously eased, and her mindset was much better. ¡°Do I need to enter the arena?¡± Fang Yuan still did not know how to train. If he entered the arena, his pet would not be injured, and he could get points. From a personal point of view, Fang Yuan was more inclined to enter the arena to fight. ¡°There¡¯s no need. Entering the arena is actually a waste of credits. When you obtain 50 credits, it also means that Zhu Xu lost 50 credits. He will definitely hold a grudge against you.¡± ¡°You sound like if I don¡¯t snatch his points, he will be very gentle to me.¡± As he ridiculed in his heart, the two humans and one beast had already arrived at the dormitory area¡¯s arena. Three tails was the first to jump onto the stage of the arena. Meanwhile, Xin Yu closed her eyes and a unicorn appeared on the arena. [ Scientific name: Flame Unicorn ] [ Bloodline: Varendo ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Level: Level 7 intermediate] [ Attributes: Fire, beast ] [ Positioning: Attack ] [ Skills: ??? ] This was the second time he had seen Xinyu¡¯s pet beast. Fang Yuan thought of a question that he had missed before. How did Xinyu nurture a pet with a single attribute? It felt like¡­ Xinyu was like a girl who did not know how to play online games. Once she received a skill point, she would point all her skills to a single attribute. For example, because she was afraid of pain, she would point all of her skills to defense. As she wanted to fight, she would point all of her skills to attack. ¡°Little guy, don¡¯t be nervous. The opponent is only a platinum intermediate three-tailed spirit fox. Moreover, it is only a level five low tier spirit fox. Your attributes can completely crush the opponent.¡± As she said that, the unicorn raised its forelimbs and began to roar, as if it was really stronger than Ah Li. However, after a few minutes, it could no longer be arrogant. This was because its fire damage skill was actually unable to cause any damage to the three-tailed spirit fox. No, to be precise, the damage was there, but after being weakened by 75% of the soul stones, it simply caused no pain to the three-tailed spirit fox. ¡°Senior Sister, do you have any other skills? I can tell you clearly that elemental attacks are almost ineffective against the three-tailed spirit fox. You have to change your attack style, such as physical attacks¡­¡± Fang Yuan was yawning as he was watching, fortunately, this unicorn was a diamond pet, but its attack style was extremely simple, relying purely on all kinds of fire skills. Not only Ah Li, any pet with high fire resistance would be able to surpass it. ¡°Physical attacks? Okay, little guy, use the collision skill!¡± ¡°Can your attack change a little?¡± Fang Yuan ridiculed. This Xinyu¡¯s attack was completely spontaneous. It did not consider tactics at all, ¡°If I were your opponent, would I obediently wait for you to collide with me? Don¡¯t you have any tactics?¡± ¡°If you really think that I¡¯m so naive, you¡¯ll lose.¡± Just now Xinyu was in fact worried that the diamond pet beast would cause too much damage to the platinum pet beast. If she hurt her junior¡¯s pet, it would not be good for his future development, so she had shown mercy. ¡°Since the strength of the three tails is higher than I thought, I can rest assured now.¡± ¡°Junior, now I want to show you the true strength of a sophomore.¡± Xinyu was wearing a yellow group uniform. At this moment, her uniform seemed to be flashing, and then the light faded. Her clothes became yellow in accordance with the style of the Huang group, and not red at the very beginning. Two gemstone-like rings appeared on her hands. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you have a trainer¡¯s equipment?¡± Xin Yu asked. ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan took out the tactical ring from his pocket and put it on his hand. ¡°Next, I¡¯ll show you our Huang group¡¯s trainer skills.¡± Standing in the ring, the unicorn and Ah Li were staring at each other. Since their masters didn¡¯t give the order to attack, they just stared at each other. Neither of them seemed to be convinced by the other. Xinyu, who was opposite Fang Yuan, had a layer of faint yellow light on her body. When he was fighting with Du Lei and Xu Fei, he had seen this kind of light before. However, the light on their bodies was red. What kind of effect would this yellow light have? ¡°This move is called the Topaz. It¡¯s different from the skills of the trainers of other groups. Our skills can¡¯t directly improve the combat strength of the pet beasts.¡± Xinyu was surrounded by the pale yellow light at this moment, which gave her a sacred feeling. ¡°Oh? Then what?¡± F ang Yuan was not in a hurry to attack. He was full of curiosity about this skill. ¡°After I use this skill, I can temporarily obtain its ancestor¡¯s consciousness.¡± Xinyu closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyeballs had disappeared, which made her look a little terrifying. ¡°I see.¡± Xinyu smiled. She had already understood all the combat skills that she could not understand just now. The unicorn attacked again. This time, it used its horn to release demonic fire and shot flames at Ah Li. Ah Li did not even bother to block it and pretended to yawn. Almost at the same time, the unicorn turned into two. One was shooting flames while the other was charging at Ah Li with its horn. Ah Li finally realized the danger. When it tried to dodge, it realized that the damage from the flames was not very strong, but¡­ It felt like sticky, making it unable to move. Chapter 130 - About Bloodline ¡°I got you.¡± The smile on Xin Yu¡¯s face did not seem to belong to her. Ah Li¡¯s chest was pierced through by the unicorn¡¯s horn, leaving a deep wound. Blood was flowing out continuously. [ Bleeding ] : 0.5% of maximum HP physical damage every second until the wound was healed. ¡°This skill is really brutal.¡± Fang Yuan did not want Ah Li to die here. He immediately summoned the spirit healing queen bee to use the healing skill to heal Ah Li. ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it.¡± The unicorn that was spewing flames immediately changed its target and spewed flames at the bee. ¡°Senior Sister, are you serious? Are you for real?¡± Fang Yuan looked at Xinyu in disbelief. She actually did not allow him to heal Ah Li! Ah Li was not in the arena. If its HP fell to a certain level, it would really die. At this moment, Xinyu seemed to have been taken over by the unicorn¡¯s battle consciousness. She even smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ve said that I won¡¯t show mercy.¡± Seeing that the spirit healing queen bee was being attacked by the unicorn¡¯s flames, and its healing was interrupted, Fang Yuan also made up his mind. ¡°Ah Li, switch to wind form and use wind chasing skill to quickly get close to the fire unicorn.¡± ¡°Where¡¯re you going?¡± Xinyu had also captured this battle order. As she still had another unicorn on the stage, for sure she would not let Ah Li go easily. Even with the wind chasing skill, the wind-form Ah Li¡¯s speed was still about the same as that of the unicorn. After all, the difference in grade was obvious. Ah Li was also feeling a little uncomfortable now. The more blood it bled, the greater the burden to its body. Fang Yuan had two ways to solve this dilemma. The first was to summon Ah Li and the bee queen back to his space and use other pet beasts to fight the unicorns. The second was to kill the unicorns before Ah Li¡¯s HP dropped to zero. Fang Yuan was not a risk-taker, so he decided to use the first method. ¡°Ah Li, return to my¡­¡± Before he could say the word ¡°space¡±, he heard Xinyu say, ¡°Please don¡¯t show mercy¡­ I beg you.¡± Xinyu¡¯s tone was actually so sad. Although summoning Ah Li back to his space was not giving in, Fang Yuan felt that Xinyu seemed to be hiding something. He had a glance at Ah Li. Although the blood loss had already exceeded 10%, and its attributes had decreased by nearly a tenth, its eyes were still quite determined. ¡°I don¡¯t care anymore. The battle must end within 30 seconds.¡± Fang Yuan looked at Ah Li and set a deadline in his heart. ¡°Ah Li, use your claw to attack the unicorn in front of you.¡± Claw attack was Ah Li¡¯s special skill. As long as an animal was attacked, it would fall into a state of obsession and chase after Ah Li relentlessly, regardless it was male or female. Ah Li would then fight back using its bite as it was constantly being entangled by the other party. After hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s order, Ah Li used its claw to scratch the unicorn¡¯s face. The unicorn¡¯s speed suddenly slowed down. As it was in a seductive state, it could only move towards Ah Li at a normal speed. Right now, all it could think of was to push Ah Li down. Every time this skill was used, Fang Yuan would feel very shameful. However, there was nothing he could do. ¡°Little guy, wake up, wake up.¡± Xinyu found that her consciousness had been separated from the unicorn, and her eyes had returned to their normal state. The unicorns on the battle field had also changed from two to one. ¡°Huh?¡± Fang Yuan was a little confused by the scene in front of him. He had always thought that Xinyu had summoned two unicorns. From the looks of it, this unicorn actually knew how to use the doppelganger skill? He cast a puzzled look at Xinyu and asked, ¡°Can I heal Ah Li?¡± ¡°Of course,¡± Xinyu said, ¡°When have I ever stopped you from healing Ah Li? If you don¡¯t heal Ah Li, it will die.¡± ¡°Okay¡­¡± ¡­ ¡°I didn¡¯t expect the Topaz skill to be so magical.¡± The battle with Xinyu ended in a dramatic result. The so-called Topaz was actually a skill to obtain the pet beast¡¯s battle memory. Fang Yuan felt that this skill was of little value. If the pet beast had to fight on its own, it just had to be told to do so on its own. Why would he need to obtain the ancestral memory? Could it be that its ancestor was better at fighting than it was? ¡°Did you see my unicorn turn into two?¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He thought that this was the clone skill of the unicorn itself, but looking at Xinyu¡¯s appearance, it seemed that this clone skill was related to the trainer skill? ¡°Valando is the unicorn¡¯s ancestor in foreign myths. According to legend, it has two souls. The outer soul is gentle and kind, while the inner soul is cruel and bloody. It will only switch personalities when it sleeps at night,¡± Xinyu said to herself. ¡°You have also noticed that some pet beasts have a special entry called [ Bloodline ] .The Topaz is the trainer skill that brings this entry into play.¡± Fang Yuan originally thought that it was very ordinary. From what he understood, [ bloodline ] should be the existence that determined the upper limit of evolution. For example, his healing queen bee was a pet beast that did not have a bloodline. When it was upgraded to the king stage, it would probably reach the peak. However, whether it was shadow wolf, gale hound or Ah Li, they all had the bloodline attribute, so they could be upgraded to the highest legendary stage! This was Fang Yuan¡¯s original understanding, but he did not expect that there was actually a trainer skill that could awaken the bloodline. ¡°This move is actually very risky.¡± Xinyu lowered her head in disappointment, ¡°It can not only activate the pet beast¡¯s ultimate killing skill, adding the pet beast¡¯s battle experience to its own body, but at the same time, it will also affect the trainer¡¯s skill. If it is not used well, the trainer will get lost in it. Teacher Huang Ying often told us that we can use this skill to communicate with them, but do not use it in battle.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan finally understood why when he was fighting with Xinyu just now, Xinyu showed a killing intent to kill Ah Li, and at the same time she showed a little girl¡¯s side of ¡°don¡¯t show mercy¡±. It was actually related to the fact that the unicorn¡¯s ancestor was affecting her personality. He did not know if this skill was easy to learn, but Fang Yuan definitely did not dare to use it at the moment because¡­ He did not dare to guarantee the characters of the three-tailed spirit fox and the lotus lizard¡¯s ancestors. From the battle strength they displayed, it was far from what he could control. ¡°Is there any requirement to use this skill?¡± ¡°Yes. This skill requires a particularly high requirement for mental power. Teacher Huang Ying said that if one¡¯s spiritual power is higher than the opponent¡¯s ancestor, then one can obtain the opponent¡¯s skills and experience without being controlled by mental power.¡± Was there such a good thing? Fang Yuan thought. His original goal was to increase his mental power. As long as it exceeded the specific value, he would be invincible. Chapter 131 - Growth-Type Trainer Equipment Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio It was before going to bed at night that Fang Yuan remembered the level-up pill that he obtained from Zhu Xu. After being enhanced to a diamond low-grade level-up pill by the system, Fang Yuan was thinking about which pet beast to evolve into a diamond pet beast. After thinking for a long time, Fang Yuan finally chose the gale hound. It was because in Fang Yuan¡¯s understanding, the evolution by using the level-up pill was not perfect. Only diamond pet beasts that evolved from materials had the characteristics of diamond pet beasts. The three-tailed spirit fox, the shadow wolf, the armored bear, and the steel gryphon all evolved from materials step by step. They maintained the perfect value of their attributes and were in the lead among the pet beasts of the same level. As for the gale hound, it didn¡¯t matter. It was originally snatched from a profiteer, although it had helped Fang Yuan a lot¡­ besides, the gale hound was also very interested in improving its combat strength. 1 After taking the level-up pill, the gale hound didn¡¯t turn into anything else as expected. ¡°Eh? Is it ineffective?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the gale hound in confusion and opened its information panel. [ Scientific name: Gale Hound. ] [ Grade: Platinum peak. ] [ Level: Level 10 high. ] ¡­ Alright, Fang Yuan finally understood. It turned out that this level-up pill could only upgrade one level¡­ It could not directly upgrade a platinum high-grade pet beast to diamond low-grade. It would be better to choose the last option directly, which could upgrade Xiao Jin to platinum peak. Forget it, since it was a snatched material, he could just snatch it from Zhu Xu again the next time he received the material. Wasn¡¯t the academy allowing a reasonable ¡°friendly exchange¡±? If Zhu Xu knew that not only was Fang Yuan not afraid after today¡¯s incident, but he was planning to snatch his material next month, who knew what expression he would have. The next day, when Fang Yuan woke up, he found a note at the door. ¡°Classroom on the fifth floor of the Academy¡¯s main tower: ¡®Course on Pet Advanced Domination Theory¡¯.¡± Xin Yu had cultivation so she had left earlier. She only told Fang Yuan the location of the class and the content of the class. He did not know what the school was thinking. Obviously the arcane realm was so big, yet they insisted on dividing their dormitory areas far away from the school. This had caused Fang Yuan to wake up half an hour earlier, otherwise, he would be late even if he flew there by gryphon. But the school probably wanted to train their flying speed. After thinking about it this way, Fang Yuan felt a little better. With bread in his mouth, he rode on Xiao Jin and flew towards the teaching building. ¡°Xiao Jin, do you know how to use the blink skill, or the acceleration skill?¡± Fang Yuan leaned on Xiao Jin¡¯s body and asked. He also wanted to experience the feeling of being blessed by the pet skill. How many men wouldn¡¯t like the joy of flying through the wind? Xiao Jin raised its head and quacked twice, meaning, ¡°I don¡¯t know anything. I¡¯m just a cute little gryphon.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan lowered his head. He did not know how to train a skill right now anyway. Even if Xiao Jin wanted to use a skill, he would not be able to enjoy the bonus. He did not know when he would begin to practice actual combat. As for the theoretical course, Fang Yuan really was not interested. In the domination theory class, Fang Yuan saw two people whom can be considered he was familiar with. Two defeated opponents. One was the freshman Xu Fei, and the other the sophomore Zhu Xu. This made Fang Yuan very proud. One was from the Heaven group, and the other was from the Earth group. The only exception was the Xuan Group. Fang Yuan did not understand the significance of this type of theoretical course. It just made him feel sleepy. In the end, he actually fell asleep. It was not until the end of the class that he was woken up by the female freshman of Xuan group. She smiled and pointed at the corner of Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth, because there was still saliva flowing. ¡°Yesterday¡¯s fight consumed too much mental energy.¡± Fang Yuan now felt that he had to raise his mental energy. Yesterday, he had only summoned three pet beasts and fought two battles, and he was already very sleepy at night. However, he did not know what methods he could use to increase his mental power. Fang Yuan checked his attributes: [ Mental power: 6,750 points ] As there was no comparison, he did not know if this mental power was high or low. The next time his senior came, he would test her mental power. Just as he was thinking about it, Huang Ying appeared. Ding! Huang Ying¡¯s mental power displayed 1.3 million. He was not on the same level as Fang Yuan at all. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Huang Ying saw Fang Yuan holding his watch and asked curiously. ¡°I want to see your mental power, Teacher.¡± Fang Yuan did not hide it and told him about his confusion. ¡°Hahahaha, I also hate theoretical classes, but there are many times you can¡¯t do without theory,¡± Huang Ying said with a smile. ¡°As for mental power, you don¡¯t have to worry. From today onwards, I will guide you to cultivate. Put on this clothes first.¡± Huang Ying threw a set of yellow academy uniform to Fang Yuan. The moment Fang Yuan took the clothes, he actually felt the system¡¯s call. [ Ding! Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow) detected. Grade: Diamond high-grade. ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain the diamond low-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow). ] [ Second, proceed with the 100 times increase in quality, and obtain the diamond intermediate-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow). ] [ Third, proceed with the 100 times increase in attribute, obtain the diamond low-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow), and double the attribute value. ] Fang Yuan was amused by the option of 100 times increase in attributes and double the attribute value. He could not make a choice, so he made a bold attempt. ¡°System, can you show me their attributes?¡± Diamond low-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow) Increase in trainer¡¯s mental power: 1,000 Increase in PET¡¯s all attributes: 50% Diamond intermediate-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow) Increase in trainer¡¯s mental power: 2,000 Increase in PET¡¯s all attributes: 70% Diamond low-grade Heavenly Secret Pavilion academy uniform (yellow) (increase) Increase in trainer¡¯s mental power: 2,000 Increase PET¡¯s all attributes: 100% The system could actually provide a comparison of the results. Fang Yuan had not known about it before, and he had been relying on his impression to obtain it. Now, the results were clear at a glance. Fang Yuan had chosen the 100 times increase in effect. It was because no matter how one looked at it, the effect was stronger than the peak, and his attribute points were 30% higher. After putting on the clothes, Fang Yuan clearly felt that his mental power had increased. This was because when his mental power increased, the connection between him and the pet beast became closer. Moreover, the pet beast also fed on his mental power. The higher his mental power was, the faster the pet beast would grow. This was Fang Yuan¡¯s own understanding. ¡°Teacher, is this clothes a trainer¡¯s equipment?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Yes, and this is the trainer¡¯s equipment that will grow. You can still use it when you graduate.¡± Chapter 132 - Mandrake Grass Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°A trainer¡¯s equipment that can grow?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. He had wanted to ask his teacher why his clothes were diamond low-grade just now. Huang Ying looked at Fang Yuan¡¯s clothes and could roughly tell the grade, he said, ¡°You might be curious about how your grades are divided. Actually, this is related to the highest grade of your pet beast. You now have a diamond intermediate-grade pet beast, so your clothes have grown to be diamond intermediate-grade. It¡¯s as simple as that.¡± ¡°However, I remember that when I watched your competition in the selection hall, you used a platinum pinnacle vine lizard. In less than three weeks, you actually had a diamond intermediate-grade pet. It really surprised me,¡± Huang Ying said with a smile. ¡°Did you use the upgrade pill? Although that thing is good, it¡¯s better to use it sparingly.¡± The two of them were sitting on their respective mounts and flying leisurely in the air. Their destination was a grassland in the distance, which was the exclusive training base of the Huang group. ¡°Why should I use less upgrade pills?¡± Fang Yuan also felt that the upgrade pills were not suitable for long-term use. It was mainly because Fang Yuan understood the rules of evolution. The upgrade pills were incomplete evolution, so he would use less of them wherever possible. However, Huang Ying had thought that the upgrade pills were used to encourage growth, which rightfully should be done through combat and reasonable training, so that the pet could gradually upgrade to a strength that was suitable for it before completing the upgrade. In fact, their thoughts were rather similar, but Huang Ying¡¯s was obviously more idealistic, like a perfectionist. ¡°This grassland is called the wise man¡¯s grassland.¡± Landing on the grassland, Huang Ying introduced to Fang Yuan. ¡°In the outside world, do you feel that it is too difficult for the pet beast to level up? No matter how many wild pet beasts you kill, the final level will remain at level five upper-tier.¡± ¡°Eh.¡± Fang Yuan was actually embarrassed. Due to the 100 times increase, many of his pet beasts were above this level. However, since Huang Ying had said so, he still had to give him face. ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°It was because the battle experience of the pet beast has nothing to do with the number of opponents he kills. It¡¯s all based on comprehension. In general, when pet beasts at the same level fight, it¡¯s very difficult for them to gain new battle comprehension once they have reached level five upper-tier.¡± Huang Ying gestured for Fang Yuan to follow him, and explained as he walked. ¡°This is the reason why many human pet beasts can not level up.¡± So that was the case. Fang Yuan really did not know about this. He thought that he would gain experience points after killing the pet beast. In the early stages, there was indeed such a notification. It was actually due to the pet beast itself had gained battle insights that it would give people the experience points gained from killing the pet beast. No wonder the level of the pet beasts in the underground colosseum were so high. It was actually they mainly relied on killing monsters above their level. Huang Ying had not finished talking, he said, ¡°But it¡¯s different in our arcane realm.¡± There was a mandrake grassland in front of Fang Yuan. [ Scientific name: Mandrake Grass ] [ Bloodline: None ] [ Rarity: Platinum intermediate ] [ Level: Level 15 upper-tier ] [ Attributes: Grass ] [ Positioning: attack, support ] What was this? Looking at the information that Huang Ying had sent him, Fang Yuan asked curiously. ¡°The mandrake grass is an extremely dangerous creature. It will disguise itself as grass and then lure the herbivorous pet beasts over. Then, it will hunt the creatures. Isn¡¯t it rare to hear about plants that eat animals?¡± Huang Ying said with a smile. The mandrake grass seemed to have noticed them and surrounded them aggressively. ¡°The reason why they are dangerous is because they are plants. Their reproduction ability is way much higher than other pet beasts. Therefore, even if I don¡¯t like killing, I have to admit that it¡¯s extremely necessary to clean up a piece of mandrake grass every once in a while.¡± After saying that, Huang Ying summoned his phoenix and launched a lightning attack at the mandrake in front of him. In an instant, they became ashes. Then, on the remains of the mandrake, small balls similar to fruits appeared. Huang Ying hinted Fang Yuan to pick up a small ball. [ Ding. Experience fruit (small) detected. Grade: Platinum Intermediate. ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways for the increase. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain a platinum intermediate experience fruit (small) ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and obtain a platinum high-grade experience fruit (small). ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase, and obtain a platinum intermediate-grade experience fruit (large) .] Upon checking the attributes: Platinum intermediate-grade experience fruit (small) : Increased pet beat¡¯s battle comprehension by 1,000 points Platinum high-grade experience fruit (small) : Increased pet¡¯s battle comprehension by 2,000 points Platinum intermediate-grade experience fruit (large) : Increased pet¡¯s battle comprehension by 1,500 points After comparing, of course, he chose the second option. ¡°Give it to your pet beast.¡± Fang Yuan nodded and summoned the spirit healing bee queen which level was still at level-three-low tier, and was not good at fighting. After consuming the fruit, its level had indeed increased to level-three-intermediate-tier . ¡°Today your first training event is to kill all the mandrake grass within five kilometers. But you must pay attention that you are not allowed to burn the grassland. Try not to use fire-type skills, especially the ones that burn continuously.¡± Huang Ying paused and continued, ¡°Also, if you encounter the little mandrake grass, try not to kill it. Although the grass is excessive, we are not qualified to exterminate it completely.¡± ¡°Teacher, just relying on our strength alone to exterminate a species, that is over exaggerated.¡± Fang Yuan said. He did not really like the benevolent way of dealing with it. ¡°I know you will think that I¡¯m overdoing it, but please believe me. There¡¯s a reason for me to tell you to do this.¡± Huang Ying looked at Fang Yuan with a sincere gaze. ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan was not a person who killed innocents indiscriminately. All he wanted was to increase his experience. Speaking of which, Huang Ying¡¯s gaze was something he had seen on the face of the chestnut ball trainer in the thunder arcane realm¡­ Were pet beasts really capable of thinking and could even reach the level of humans? Other people might not be able to answer this question, but Fang Yuan understood it. That was because the lotus giant lizard in his hand was an erudite existence in the human world. Now was not the time to think about these things. Fang Yuan shook his head and looked at the mandrake grass that filled the grassland. They were surrounding Fang Yuan like hunters surrounding their prey. It was just that they did not think clearly who the hunter was and who the prey was. If it was just a wild pet beast, then¡­ ¡°Come out! Gryphon Legion!¡± The Gryphon Legion, led by Xiao Yin, appeared in the sky one after another. The mandrakes, which had always been impatient, were just about to pounce on Fang Yuan when they were fiercely bitten by Xiao Jin and be thrown to the side. Fang Yuan sat on the gryphon and began the hunting feast. Huang Ying, on the other hand, watched everything silently from a even higher place. Chapter 133 - : Accidental Discovery Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio On the sunny prairie, the gryphons were dancing in the sky, sometimes in a zigzag pattern, and sometimes in a straight line, crisscrossing and changing their formation. For those who didn¡¯t know what they were doing, they would think that this was some kind of ritual. In fact, it was the work of a cleaner. Although the mandrake looked weak, it was also a platinum intermediate pet beast. Fang Yuan originally had wanted to let the gryphons fight freely so that he could quickly complete the cleaning task. However, in the end, he had no choice but to command the gryphons to use whirlwind to gather them together, and then use destructive storm to clear the area. Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin were already very tired, but the mandrake grass on the prairie was far stretching as if there was no end to it. In any case, it was still early, so Fang Yuan wasn¡¯t in a hurry. He began to study the biological characteristics of the mandrake grass. ¡°The mandrake grass only has one attribute. If I use fire-type skills, I can quickly clear them all.¡± Fang Yuan sighed. He had underestimated the strength of Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s arcane realm. No wonder he had heard from the outside world that platinum pet beasts were actually nothing in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Now it seemed that it was indeed so. The most basic experienced monsters were all platinum-intermediate-grade monsters. Their levels were also higher than each other. The highest was almost reaching level 20 upper-rank. At this moment, Fang Yuan was lying on a huge rock, feeling bored and flipping through Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s textbook, ¡°Pet Beast Attribute Research¡±. The knowledge related to pet beasts that he learned in high school was really too shallow, including his understanding of the pet beast¡¯s level. At first, Fang Yuan thought that the level would have no other effect other than increasing the attributes, now, he knew that pet beasts could also learn new skills through skill books, and these books usually had a level requirement. Just as he was in a daze, Fang Yuan felt Xiao Jin¡¯s call, as if it had discovered something. ¡°Xiao Jin, What¡¯s the matter?¡± He threw the textbook into his backpack and saw Xiao Jin fly over with a little girl in its mouth. It landed in front of Fang Yuan and gently placed the little girl on the ground. ¡°Who is this?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the girl in front of him with puzzlement. She didn¡¯t dress like a student of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, so why did she appear here? Could it be that there were aboriginals in the arcane realm? He looked around and didn¡¯t know where Huang Ying was, the instructor had gone. He was really an irresponsible teacher. He just left after explaining the mission. He took out a bottle of water from his backpack and opened it. He then poured it over the girl¡¯s head. ¡°Ahem, ahem, ahem.¡± As expected, it worked. Although he didn¡¯t know why unconscious people were especially sensitive to water, it finally woke her up. The first thing the little girl did after waking up was to get up and look at Fang Yuan. Xiao Jin gently nudged her from behind. When she turned around and saw an eagle¡¯s head, she was so scared that she collapsed on the ground. ¡°Wu wa wa, Daddy and Mommy¡­¡± ¡°Hey¡­¡± Fang Yuan was confused, however, he could confirm that this girl was a human and not some kind of pet beast. He squatted in front of the little girl and patted her head, saying, ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯m a student of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, who are you?¡± Due to this action of Fang Yuan, the emotional little girl calmed down a lot, but there was still a snot on her face. She said intermittently, ¡°My name is Bailey. Brother, can you save my parents? They have been taken away by a group of monkeys.¡± Monkeys? This little girl called Bailey had been crying so much that Fang Yuan did not even have a chance to ask her anything. In the end, Fang Yuan had to pretend to be a bad person and said, ¡°Stop crying. If you cry again, I¡¯ll let the gryphon eat you!¡± For naughty children, persuasion might not work, it was better to scare them. Bailey was still very scared, but because of Fang Yuan, she could only hold back her tears and look at Fang Yuan fearfully. ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll ask you a question now. Why is your family here? Where are your parents?¡± Fang Yuan could not see his own facial expression, but he thought that in the little girl¡¯s heart, he was no different from a demon. After ten minutes of questioning, Fang Yuan always figured out the whole story. Bailey¡¯s parents were trainers. He had no idea what had gone wrong with them that they had brought their child to the ¡°grass arcane realm¡± to play, saying that they wanted to nurture their child¡¯s affinity with the pet beasts. In the end, they ran into a group of demonized monkeys holding a sacrificial ceremony and they stopped around to watch. When they were discovered by the monkeys, Bailey¡¯s parents covered for her to escape. She ran as fast as she could and when she turned around seeing her parents being caught by the monkeys, she missed her step and fell off the cliff. She then fainted and when she woke up, she saw Fang Yuan. ¡°Where are you guys from?¡± Fang Yuan felt that it was very strange. It was clearly Heavenly Secret Pavilion here, the only grade four arcane realm in Fire country. Even he had to spend quite a bit of effort just to come in, but this little girl had actually said that she had come in from the grass arcane realm. ¡°My hometown is Linhai City.¡± Linhai City was a small city near Shanghai. As it was a tourist city, Fang Yuan had some impression of this city. However, this was Holy Capital and not the arcane realm of grass. If the possibility that this little girl was lying was excluded, then¡­ ¡°Can you take me to your parents¡¯ place? You can also tell that I¡¯m a trainer. Maybe I can save your parents¡¯ lives.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Bailey wiped away her tears, thinking for a while and crying again. ¡°I don¡¯t remember which cliff I fell from.¡± ¡°Xiao Jin!¡± Seeing Bailey cry again, Fang Yuan felt a headache. Little girl, didn¡¯t you know that the time you wasted might make your parents in even greater danger? But Fang Yuan didn¡¯t say this out loud. Instead, he asked the gryphon to bring her back to the place where Bailey was found. Fang Yuan then sat on Xiao Jin and Bailey on Xiao Yin. The two humans and two beasts came to the front of a mountain. ¡°This is the place?¡± Fang Yuan raised his head and looked over. If this was the cliff that Bailey had fallen from, then she was really too lucky. The gryphon had already flown so high, but she still couldn¡¯t see the top of the mountain. ¡°Gulp, gulp, gulp.¡± Xiao Jin let out a cry, attracting Fang Yuan¡¯s attention. He followed Xiao Jin¡¯s gaze and looked over. There was a cave. If one looked carefully, there was actually a faint green light flickering in the cave. Landing at the entrance of the cave, Fang Yuan summoned all from the gryphon legion. He had to conserve his mental power now, because he did not know what kind of battle he would be facing next. ¡°Bailey, you follow me from behind.¡± Fang Yuan summoned the gale hound. Now he realized one thing. He actually did not have a light-type pet beast, and without a pet that could emit light, the cave exploration would become very dangerous. He had no choice but to use the gale hound as a torch. ¡°Awoooo, awoooo¡­¡± The gale hound was indeed suitable to be used as an exploration pet. Not only could it illuminate (although the range was not large), but it could also be used as a dog. Its nose was very sensitive. Chapter 134 - The Cave Connected to the Arcane Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio There was not a single pet beast in the cave, and the faint green light disappeared after Fang Yuan landed on the platform. Following the gale hound¡¯s low growl, they passed through the cave and arrived on the other side of the mountain. No, rather than saying that this was the other side of the mountain, it was more appropriate to say that this cave was a teleportation portal. They seemed to have arrived in another world. ¡°Shh.¡± Fang Yuan suddenly realized that something was wrong. He immediately summoned back his gale hound, covered the little girl¡¯s mouth, and the two of them lay on the ground. One second right after that, a three-meter-long winged dragon-shaped pet beast flew past their eyes. Fortunately, this pet beast did not seem to have good eyes, but its teeth were quite scary. [ Scientific name: Grass-tailed dragon. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Platinum low-grade. ] [ Level: Level-five- high. ] [ Attributes: Grass, Asian dragon. ] [ Location: Attack, mount. ] It was actually a platinum-grade pet. If this was really the grass arcane realm that Bailey had mentioned, then this was at least a level three grass arcane realm. But it was too fake. A bunch of couples bringing their underage daughter to a level three grass arcane realm for a picnic? They were too ambitious. Fang Yuan also understood the behavior of parents who lacked morality literacy, but he still felt that it was a bit abnormal. ¡°Platinum low-grade, level-five- high rank pet beast Xiao Jin should be able to defeat it.¡± After weighing the pros and cons, Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin. In order to preserve his mental strength for the upcoming battle, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t summon Xiao Yin, instead, he rode on a gryphon with Bailey, ¡°Bailey, do you know roughly the whereabout of your parents?¡± When he said this, immediately he regretted. If she knew, she wouldn¡¯t be crying and unable to speak clearly. ¡°Do you have anything of your parents on you?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Bailey took out a handkerchief and handed it to Fang Yuan. ¡°Okay. Xiao Jin, let¡¯s land on the grass in front of us.¡± As they didn¡¯t know where Bailey¡¯s parents had been captured to, they could only¡­ ¡°Shadow Wolf, come out!¡± He handed the handkerchief to the wolf. It sniffed the handkerchief and began to search the ground. It then howled, seemed to have found a trace. The reason why he didn¡¯t use the gale hound was because its entire body was covered in flames. It was too difficult to hide its identity in the grass. Following the shadow wolf, they soon arrived at the front of a cliff, which was the back of the cave they came out of. Speaking of which, it was too amazing. The back of this cave was actually not Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Only after passing through the cave would one enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Was this considered a bug entrance? ¡°Dad, Mom¡­¡± ¡°Shh.¡± He covered Bailey¡¯s mouth. He didn¡¯t want the little girl to cause trouble for him at this time. As Bailey said, this group of silver wood monkeys were in the midst of carrying out some kind of mysterious ritual. However, this was the first time he knew that monkeys would do such a thing. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was something that only people from the primitive tribes would do. [ Scientific name: Silverwood Monkey. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Rarity: Gold high-grade. ] [ Level: Level-five-high. ] [ Attributes: Grass, monkey. ] [ Location: Attack, team battle. ] Fang Yuan quietly checked their basic information. They were all gold high-grade monkeys. There should be around 300 of them in total. Fang Yuan thought to himself. The gryphon legion had 100 platinum intermediate-grade gryphons, and they were all above level six. They should be able to defeat these monkeys. Just as he was thinking about this, a scene that he could not imagine appeared in the distance. The Silverwood monkeys all knelt down, and a man walked out of the cave. He did not know if the monkeys had treated humans as kings or if this man had enslaved the monkeys. But after the man walked out of the cave, he looked over at Fang Yuan and Bailey, and then raised the spear in his hand. ¡°Roar!¡± ¡°Not good.¡± Fang Yuan hurriedly summoned the gryphon legion. However, the gryphon legion had spent a lot of mental energy cleaning up the mandrake just now, so it definitely wasn¡¯t at its peak when it was summoned. Xiao Jin¡¯s and Xiao Yin¡¯s combined skill, and the gryphon legion¡¯s trump card, storm of destruction, could not be used anymore. But they could not just sit back and wait for their deaths. In the next second, the gryphon legion and the monkey legion started fighting. The Silverwood monkeys lethality was very low. They basically only knew how to throw stones and hit with tree branches, but it was clear that they had a clear division of work. At the beginning, the gryphon gryphon used charge. 10 gryphons lined up in a line and glided along the grass, breaking the formation of the monkeys. After 10 consecutive waves of charge, at least a hundred Silverwood monkeys were killed. However, the remaining Silverwood monkeys learned their lesson. When the gryphon legion used charge again, the monkeys no longer rushed forward. Instead, they spread out on both sides, causing only minor casualties from the gryphon legion¡¯s attacks. When the gryphons landed on the ground, a few monkeys jumped onto the gryphons and hit their heads with wooden clubs. Two gryphons were unable to sustain their strength. They were hammered until they were dizzy and fell to the ground from the air. Just as the other Silverwood monkeys were about to rush up and chop them into pieces, Xiao Jin rushed over and dispersed them. ¡°Wood can actually break through steel¡¯s defense?¡± Fang Yuan was a little shocked. He then checked the attributes of the Silverwood monkeys. Although they were gold high-grade and each monkey¡¯s individual attack power was only a little bit, they actually had a special characteristic ¡ª [ Team Battle ] : The Silverwood monkeys were extremely good at team battles. The more they were, the higher the damage they would cause. They could increase their combat power by up to 20 times. This was similar to army ants. Its individual strength was not that great, but when they were put together, it was very threatening. Moreover, at this moment, Fang Yuan noticed the purplish-black light on their bodies. This felt like the precursor to ¡°demonization¡±. Xiao Jin looked at Fang Yuan for help. The gryphon beside it had suffered a very serious injury. If it didn¡¯t receive treatment, it would probably die here. ¡°Leave it to me.¡± After Fang Yuan put on the academy uniform, his mental strength had also increased by quite a bit. Summoning another battle pet wasn¡¯t a difficult matter. The moment the spirit healing bee queen appeared, she used a green radiance to envelop the entire legion. Under this light, the gryphon legion¡¯s wounds gradually healed, and their mental power also recovered quite a fair bit. After the spirit healing bee queen appeared, she released all of her energy. Now, she no longer had any combat ability, so Fang Yuan summoned her back to the pet beast space. ¡°Let¡¯s try the tactics that we practiced on the prairie again,¡± Fang Yuan said to Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin raised her head and let out a long howl. Then, the gryphon legion surrounded the Silverwood monkeys in a circle, preparing to set up a whirlwind formation. ¡°Are you also a legion trainer?¡± The man whose entire body was covered by a hood and only two eyes were exposed had an unusually penetrating voice. It passed through the battlefield and reached Fang Yuan¡¯s ears. However, Fang Yuan did not have the time to chat with him. The gryphon legion¡¯s monster-gathering skill, whirlwind formation, was set to be triggered at any moment. Chapter 135 - Team Battle Weapon Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio In fact, whirlwind battle wasn¡¯t suitable for prairie. This was Fang Yuan¡¯s experience from fighting the mandrake grass. The only special effect that could be changed was the special skill [ storm of destruction ] , because not only was storm of destruction a wind attack, but it also contained lightning damage. Just now, in order to kill mandrake grass in large number, Fang Yuan had developed an effective tactic, which was to use the gryphon legion¡¯s whirlwind skill to gather the mandrake grass together, and Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin to use storm of destruction to deal a devastating blow to the mandrake grass that had gathered together. This way, they could destroy around 2,000 mandrake grass in one go. This was already the limit. There were less than 200 Silverwood monkeys in front of them. Fang Yuan had just summoned the spirit healing bee queen to replenish the mental power of the pet beasts present, so that they could use their combined skills again. A whirlwind began to blow on the ground, and the grass that had been broken rose up in a spiral. After the Silverwood monkeys were hit by the whirlwind, different wounds appeared on their faces and bodies. In order to avoid the whirlwind, they gathered closer and closer to each other. This kind of dodging attacks by nature, was precisely the principle behind this tactic. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, you have already been strengthened.¡± The Silverwood monkeys in front of them were about to gather together, and [ storm of destruction ] was also ready to be unleashed. However, that man suddenly said something, and the Silverwood monkeys¡¯ eyes emitted a purplish-black light. They actually ignored the threat of the whirlwind, and charged towards Fang Yuan. When the whirlwind hit them, it would still cut their skin, but they did not retreat at all. Storm of destruction! A huge tornado appeared out of thin air and blew towards where the Silverwood monkeys were gathered. However, the effect this time was not good. In total, only 50 monkeys were killed and there were still more than 100 left! Moreover, they decided not to fight with the gryphon legion anymore. Roaring, they took their weapons and rushed towards Fang Yuan. Seeing this, the gryphon legion used all their strength to chase after them. However, using the tornado just now had consumed a huge amount of mental power, and they could only maintain their flying state now. ¡°Roar.¡± Xiao Yin actually roared at the sky, revealing a sad expression. ¡°You actually have human feelings?¡± The man commanding the Silverwood monkey legion which expression could not be seen clearly, was mumbling to himself, as if he didn¡¯t believe everything that was happening in front of him. ¡°I can also summon a pet beast,¡± Fang Yuan calculated in his heart. Bailey was so scared that she was shivering behind him. ¡°Fighting on the prairie, how could you forget me?¡± Hearing this voice, Fang Yuan could not help but be shocked. Just as the Silverwood monkeys were about to pounce on Fang Yuan, a vine tentacle wrapped around the leading monkey and threw it back into the group of monkeys. ¡°Lutania? Why are you here¡­ No, this is just a diamond cub?¡± Fang Yuan could not hear this because his voice was too soft. The lotus giant lizard, no, it should be called Nero. Fighting together with him, Fang Yuan almost did not need to command. It was as if it was a moving tactical brain. The lotus flower on its back bloomed again. Then, it shot out a large number of petals around it. The petals flew around like sharp blades. The charging Silverwood monkeys were cut into halves at the waist and then turned into light, and disappeared on the prairie. It once again displayed its ability to kill the entire scene in an instant. Now, there were less than 10 Silverwood monkeys left in front of it. The Silverwood monkey was originally a very timid creature. When it saw that it was about to lose, it should have fled in all directions. However, they still charged forward without fear, like a death squad. There was no need for Nero to make a move. The gryphon legion that came later tore them into pieces. Under Xiao Jin¡¯s lead, the other gryphons surrounded the man. ¡°Who are you?¡± Riding on Xiao Yin and following behind Nero, Fang Yuan and Bailey came in front of this man. Facing so many pet beasts, he didn¡¯t show any fear. Instead, he asked very calmly, ¡°Where did you find Lutania?¡± ¡°Lutania?¡± Fang Yuan had no idea what he was talking about. However, he followed his eyes and looked at the lotus giant lizard. ¡°Hmph, you¡¯re also a powerful character. It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t die here today.¡± He and the lotus giant lizard looked at each other. There was a trace of surprise in the eyes of the lotus giant lizard. He stretched out his palm towards Fang Yuan. ¡°Roar!¡± When Xiao Jin saw this scene, it thought that he wanted to attack Fang Yuan, so he immediately pounced forward. However, he didn¡¯t expect that the man would actually disappear into the thin air. Everyone seemed to be facing a great enemy which was surrounding them. They didn¡¯t know what techniques he had used or if he would launch another attack. ¡°There¡¯s no need. He has already left,¡± said the lotus giant lizard. At this moment, Bailey had already run to her parents. Her parents were tied to a wooden frame and there was a pile of dry wood underneath. If they were a step later, they might have already become sacrifices. It was not just Bailey¡¯s parents who were here. There were more than ten other people whom they did not know. They should be the trainers who had come to the grass arcane realm to train. After Fang Yuan dismounted them, they came in front of Fang Yuan at the same time and knelt down to kowtow to express their gratitude. Fang Yuan quickly signaled for them to get up. He didn¡¯t come to save them on purpose, he was just passing by. ¡°Thank you, Big Brother.¡± Bailey pulled the corner of Fang Yuan¡¯s shirt and said with a smile. Her parents looked at each other and nodded. Then, Bailey¡¯s father walked towards Fang Yuan and handed him a pet beast egg. However, this egg was too small, so it might not be a powerful guy when it hatched. ¡°Thank you, Stranger. I¡¯m Lin Zhifeng from Linhai City¡¯s pet beast research institute. I¡¯m in charge of studying the living habits of pet beasts. This time, we were supposed to bring Bailey to observe the grass-type pet beasts. Who knew the ordinary level one arcane realm had suddenly become such?¡± He said with a regretful expression, then, he handed the egg to Fang Yuan. ¡°This is what we found in the arcane realm. It doesn¡¯t seem to be an existing pet beast. I want to give it to you as a gift.¡± Although he said that it was a gift, he was probably more worried that the egg would meet with misfortune and find a scapegoat. Although he had thought so, Fang Yuan was not a person who was afraid of trouble. Moreover, his goal was to explore the true meaning of the pet world. A pet beast egg that had never appeared before, of course, had high research value. Fang Yuan accepted the exquisite pet beast egg. So far, there was no sign of ownership. It might need to be triggered under certain conditions, or it might not be triggered at all, and would only send signals to the outside world, attracting danger. Fang Yuan smiled at Bailey and her parents. He felt that it was already very late, and he had to rush back to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°Hero, please tell us your name.¡± The people who were saved by Fang Yuan chased after Fang Yuan, who was riding on the gryphon, and shouted. Fang Yuan waved his hand and disappeared from their sight. ¡°Is this the Godly Condor Hero?¡± Looking at Fang Yuan¡¯s back, the crowd exclaimed in admiration. Chapter 136 - What is Mental Power Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Fang Yuan was immersed in his soul consciousness. In his eyes at this moment, the world was vast. ¡°Is this personal cultivation?¡± Fang Yuan stuck out his tongue. He did not expect that the trainer¡¯s own cultivation would be so difficult. If what Huang Ying said was true, what was floating in front of him was his mental power. It was like a thick fog surrounding him. He thought to himself, ¡°I only have slightly more than 6,000 points of mental power with the trainer¡¯s equipment. There¡¯s actually such thick fog that I can¡¯t even see myself clearly.¡± If he cultivated for another year or so, what kind of realm could he reach? However, when would he be able to catch up with the 1.3 million points of mental power of his mentor? He was breaking away from his soul consciousness. Fang Yuan was sitting in the classroom at the moment. He was attending Huang Ying¡¯s mental power training course together with Xinyu. ¡°You¡¯ve already seen what mental power looks like just now. Now, let¡¯s proceed with the mental power training,¡± Huang Ying said. ¡°Mental power training is actually very similar to the upgrading of a pet beast. You can gain insights through fighting, or you can kill other trainers and absorb their mental power.¡± At this point, Huang Ying¡¯s face revealed a terrifying expression. ¡°Ah! I don¡¯t want to kill anyone!¡± Xinyu was shocked by him and immediately hid behind Fang Yuan. ¡°Teacher is joking with us.¡± Fang Yuan could tell at a glance that Huang Ying was talking nonsense because he could see that both Huang Ying and Ouyang Xinglan were not the kind of people who would kill. On the contrary, they were somewhat friendly. Just as Fang Yuan thought, Huang Ying was just putting on a dramatic performance and was exposed by Fang Yuan, which made him lose face. He lowered his head and said bitterly, ¡°Fang Yuan, give your teacher some face occasionally.¡± ¡°Save your time, Teacher Huang.¡± Fang Yuan was a little speechless. He was still thinking about how to catch up with the footsteps of the legendary pet beast. Huang Ying saw that Xinyu was staring at him, and the effect was half achieved. He reached out his hand and held a purple crystal. ¡°This is called a spirit crystal. The mental power of a normal trainer is fixed by talent. For example, Fang Yuan, you have more than 4,000, and Xinyu, you have more than 600. Therefore, Fang Yuan has a lot of pet beasts. Without the support of equipment, he can summon the gryphon legion to fight.¡± ¡°Every time we summon a pet beast, we will deduct a part of our mental power. For example, 30 mental power will be deducted from one gryphon, and 3,000 mental power will be deducted from 100 gryphons. At that time, Fang Yuan will only has 1,000 mental power left in his body. As for the legion trainers, they will disconnect their mental connection with the other pets in the legion and connect with the legion commanding pets, such as Xiao Jin that Fang Yuan mentioned. As long as Xiao Jin doesn¡¯t leave the field, these gryphons can fight as if they were in a wild state. However, they only receive 30 points of mental power. After they release their skills, they can not replenish it anymore.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. Xinyu did not know why Huang Ying said all these. She did not know that this was a question raised by Fang Yuan. ¡°In a normal pet battle, other than the mental power required to summon it, it also needs to be continuously supplied with mental power so that it can use all sorts of skills in the battle. Every time the pet is injured, and it attacks, it will consume a large amount of mental power. Take Fang Yuan as an example, summoning the three-tailed spirit fox consumes 40 points of mental power. Every time it uses its skills, it will replenish its mental power, and the source of this mental power is Fang Yuan.¡± He looked at Fang Yuan, Huang Ying said, ¡°The reason why I¡¯m telling you all this is to let you know that mental power can be trained. It¡¯s just like a fitness exercise, constantly repeating, increasing the weight, and breaking through the limit. The human body is limited, but the human spirit is unlimited.¡± ¡°The other method is the purple crystal in my hand. It¡¯s called a core. It¡¯s okay if I let you know this. Pet beasts are not human¡¯s only battle companion. We have other enemies, such as the demons from the demon world. When you destroy them, you will get such a purple crystal. If you touch it, you can absorb its mental power for your own use.¡± ¡°Demons?¡± Xinyu felt like she was listening to a fairy tale. ¡°Mm.¡± Huang Ying lifted the purple crystal and said to Fang Yuan and Xinyu, ¡°You two can try touching it. Fang Yuan, you go first.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Fang Yuan stood up and touched the purple crystal. As expected, the system immediately reacted. [ Ding! Spirit crystal fragment detected. Grade: Low ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain a low-grade spirit crystal fragment. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and obtain a intermediate-grade spirit crystal fragment. ] It was not surprising that there was no third option. The system was not omnipotent. ¡°Check the attributes.¡± Spirit crystal fragment (low-level) : Trainer nutrient, increased maximum mental power by 1,000 points. Spirit crystal fragment (intermediate-level) : Trainer nutrient, increased maximum mental power by 5,000 points. Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughtful expression, Huang Ying smiled and said, ¡°Looks like student Fang Yuan has already understood the use of this crystal?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He gave up on the 100 times increase. After all, this thing did not belong to him, so there was no need to attract other people¡¯s attention. After Xin Yu touched it, she did not find anything unusual. Putting the purple crystal back into his pocket, Huang Ying said, ¡°Don¡¯t blame Teacher for being stingy. I only have this one piece.¡± ¡°But, teacher, your mental power is 1.3 million,¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Of course, because I¡¯m an expert in mental power.¡± Huang Ying revealed a strange smile. ¡°I was going to teach you in your second year, but Fang Yuan, you¡¯re talented, so you can practice with Xinyu.¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Xinyu looked full of vitality as usual. But Fang Yuan felt that the following training might be very painful. After seeing the training list, Fang Yuan knew that it was as he had expected. Flying at full speed for 500 kilometers Controlling two pet beasts, using the smallest amount of strength to fight each other until their mental power was exhausted When their spiritual power was exhausted, they would carry out running practice. Fighting Forest Apes with their physical bodies. There were more than 100 training contents being listed densely under the list. Some were for torturing pet beasts, while some were for torturing trainers. ¡°Ah, Teacher, I am a girl and I have to fight with a monkey?¡± Xinyu looked puzzled after reading the list. ¡°Of course, I will keep you safe.¡± Huang Ying smiled and said, ¡°For the next two months, you don¡¯t need to attend any other courses. Just focus on building your foundation.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t have any objections to this. He just felt that this training looked like training Superman. He remembered a sentence: ¡°A chef who doesn¡¯t want to become a special force soldier is not a good trainer¡±. Chapter 137 - Mutation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Hu-ha¡­ Hu-ha¡­¡± Sweat kept dripping down Fang Yuan¡¯s face. He had actually won the race against the Forest Wolf. In the past two months, he had almost brushed past death every day. Not only him, but his pet beasts, especially Xiao Jin, had also achieved a huge improvement. In the past, Fang Yuan still looked like a weak student, but now, he could run 20 kilometers in one breath. His figure could now compare to the Chinese action stars in his previous life. To be an excellent trainer, one actually had to have a good body to be able to support a strong mental power. Now, Fang Yuan¡¯s mental power had reached 12,000, twice the amount when he first entered the school. Now, he could support five platinum peak pet beasts fighting at the same time. It was the same for Xinyu. When she was a freshman, she learned theoretical knowledge. However, because her talent was learning ability, she learned two trainer skills, ¡°Topaz¡± and ¡°Listening¡± under her poor mental power. In fact, it would not take long for her to be possessed by the unicorn¡¯s consciousness when she used the ¡°Topaz¡±. Both of them were wearing extremely cool clothes because Huang Ying did not allow them to wear academy uniforms during training. It was already late autumn. However, both of them had just finished their exercise and their bodies were drenched in sweat, so their clothes were not much different from the transparent ones. It was just that they were extremely tired now, so they laid on the beach and panted heavily. ¡°Today is the last day, right?¡± ¡°Yeah. Two months have passed like a dream.¡± ¡°Heavens, please don¡¯t have this dream again.¡± Just as the young man and young woman were resting and chatting on the beach, the academy¡¯s principal and four teachers were looking at a black dot on the map with solemn expressions. This dot seemed to be a living thing, sometimes big and sometimes small, flickering constantly. Ouyang Xinglan sighed and said, ¡°The expansion of the devil world is actually so fast. I wonder how the trainers at the front line are doing now.¡± Sima Kaile, who had always argued with him, didn¡¯t refute him anymore. If the Devil World expanded, then the outcome of those warriors who stopped the expansion of the devil world would be obvious. Sima Kaile said, ¡°If it expands further, shouldn¡¯t we go to the front line together?¡± ¡°We can not.¡± Principal Shangguan said, ¡°You all need to nurture a batch of elite warriors now. The quality of the new students this year is especially high. I believe that they are not inferior to the elites of the Devil World.¡± Moreover¡­ He turned around to look at the picture frame hanging in the middle of the office and said, ¡°When the Devil World really expands to an unstoppable stage, the role of our Heavenly Secret Pavilion will be revealed.¡± Linghu Yiren closed his eyes at all times and smiled confidently as he said, ¡°Why does the demon world appeared in our Fire Country? Has there been any similar situation in other countries?¡± ¡°Of course. Do you think that our intelligence agencies are to be trifled with?¡± Principal Shangguan said. ¡°This is not a conspiracy of foreign countries against us, but a conspiracy of the demon world against the human world. As for the other countries which you mentioned, they are not our enemies, but our allies.¡± Linghu Yiren smiled and said, ¡°Yes, Principal, but don¡¯t forget that besides dealing with the demon world, we also shoulder the responsibility of protecting Fire Country. If we really have to sacrifice ourselves, I can gladly accept it, but I hope to leave the hope of surviving to my students.¡± Huang Ying had not said a word. In front of these big shots, he was the one with the lowest status and power. Only when he quarreled with Ouyang Xinglan could he show his presence. Sure enough, Ouyang Xinglan turned his gaze to him and asked, ¡°Huang Ying, do you have any objections?¡± ¡°My students have gone to the devil world to explore, and they haven¡¯t returned yet,¡± Huang Ying said remorsefully. The reason why he had arranged for Xinyu and Fang Yuan to train freely in the past two months was because he had gone to look for the third and fourth year students, who had gone to the devil world and never returned. But the moment he stepped into the devil world, he discovered that the pet beasts and trainers of the devil world were even more powerful. What surprised Huang Ying the most was that his students had become members of the demon world¡¯s legion, and they had actually attacked Huang Ying, without the slightest regard for their teacher-student relationship. He had not told anyone about all of this. After entering the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, it was normal for them not to contact their families for a few years. It it was because in the eyes of the outside world, Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a very mysterious university. In actual fact, Heavenly Secret Pavilion was both a university and the front line of Fire Country¡¯s battle against the demon world. That was why Heavenly Secret Pavilion was especially strict in recruiting students. The weak simply could not survive in this world. ¡­ Fang Yuan took a hot bath in his dormitory and even placed a little yellow duck in the bathtub. He had discovered a strange thing. In the past two months, other than Xinyu, he had not seen a single person. The senior brothers and sisters that Xinyu had mentioned earlier had not returned. When he asked Xinyu, she did not know either. She only knew that they had gone out to gain experience. The so-called training was to bring a pet beast to look for fortuitous encounters. Usually, they would be able to obtain materials to upgrade their pet beasts, equipment exclusive for pet beasts and if they were lucky, they could even obtain new pet beasts. However, this was a school after all. Even if it was a fourth-year internship, they should still come back to the dormitory occasionally to take a look. Fang Yuan vaguely felt that something had happened to them, and Huang Ying had gone to look for them. Huang Ying had not come to look for them for the past two months. Every day, he would send messages to ask them about their progress, telling them not to slack off. This made him feel even more suspicious. However, he did not have any friendship with his senior or senior sister. He had not even met them, so he was not worried at all. The only thing he cared about was that he felt that there was still a certain level of danger in Heavenly Secret Pavilion, which was completely different from other schools. ¡­ After taking a shower, he went to Xinyu¡¯s dormitory to eat. While he was chatting with Xinyu, a serious-looking Huang Ying appeared in front of them. ¡°Teacher Huang.¡± Xinyu immediately stood up, saluted and said, ¡°We have successfully completed the mission!¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Huang Ying forced a smile. This small detail was captured by Fang Yuan, which confirmed that there was indeed a problem. ¡°Your mental power training will end here for now. As long as you have enough mental power for use, it is enough. When you have pet beasts above the star brilliance grade, your mental power will increase even faster.¡± Huang Ying was worried that Fang Yuan would mention the matter of his 1.3 million mental power again. In actual fact, Huang Ying¡¯s mental power was not that strong. There was a special reason why it was shown as 1.3 million. Even the principal was not that high. He was worried that Fang Yuan would get into a dead end. However, it was obvious that he was thinking too much. Fang Yuan only wanted to improve himself and did not care how much others were stronger than him. He had his own way of winning. ¡°I¡¯m glad that you guys have completed the second year mental power training course. From now on, you guys are officially Huang group¡¯s students.¡± ??? Weren¡¯t they considered Huang group¡¯s students before this? ¡°From tomorrow onwards, we will learn the skills of a trainer. I will formulate a method for you guys to become stronger. I will also set a small goal for you guys.¡± ¡°It is now September. Before December, I hope that your strongest pet beast will at least reach the peak of diamond!¡± Huang Ying did not want to do this this either, but¡­ he did not have time. Chapter 138 - The Trainer’s Mark Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°In this world, every trainer has their own unique mark, which can be interpreted as their own talent.¡± ¡°When you feel it, it¡¯s time you can use the trainer skill. But every trainer only has one skill. As your mental power becomes stronger, the effect will gradually become stronger.¡± ¡°Then how should I awaken my rune?¡± Fang Yuan showed a puzzled expression. ¡°Come, touch this crystal ball, then close your eyes and follow the flow of its consciousness.¡± A green crystal ball appeared in Huang Ying¡¯s hand. This was the Huang group¡¯s natural crystal ball. In Heavenly Secret Pavilion, there were four kinds of skills to awaken talent: The Heaven group favored offense, the red crystal ball, and generally awakened active combat-type skills The Earth group focused on defense, the blue crystal ball, and generally awakened passive combat-type talents The Xuan group specialized in group battles, the yellow crystal ball, and generally awakened supporting combat-type talents The Huang group was the most special, the green crystal ball, and could awaken all kinds of talents. For example, Xinyu¡¯s ¡°Topaz¡± skill was actually called ¡°progenitor transformation¡±. It could directly awaken the pet¡¯s ancestral bloodline skill. Hearing this, Fang Yuan was a little disappointed. He thought that he could also have the same skill. His pet had a bloodline inheritance, so he believed that the progenitor transformation would bring great improvements. However, these were fated. The moment he touched the crystal ball, Fang Yuan felt like he had entered another world. He saw countless huge pet beasts fighting in the world. The scene was like the end of the world, which lightning, cyclones, flames, rain¡­ intertwined with each other. While he felt a call, his body subconsciously walked forward. Lightning and fireballs kept falling on his sides, but they did not hurt him at all. He saw a crying woman, but she was not human. Her body was not smaller than the giant beasts outside, and her whole body was covered by green plants. All of these were just illusion. Fang Yuan told himself. However, the woman suddenly raised her head and looked to Fang Yuan¡¯s position. ¡°Is this what you want to see?¡± She pointed at the two dragons fighting in the sky. One was an oriental dragon, with lightning around its body, and the other was a flying dragon, with constant shooting flames. However, they were unable to harm each other. When their skills were about to come into contact with each other, a faint energy barrier would be formed on the surface of their bodies, repelling the energy attacks. They also realized this and gave up on using their skills on each other. Instead, they began to bite and entangle each other. Each dragon was more than 100 meters long. Such a battle scene really made Fang Yuan¡¯s heart tremble. Was this a choice? ¡°I long for their power,¡± Fang Yuan said slowly. If he could really have such power, then no matter who it was, he would have the determination to win. After the woman heard this, she closed her lips and asked again, ¡°Is this the answer in your heart?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Fang Yuan was just about to say this, but he realized that the scene had changed. The two dragons had disappeared. In their place were the three-tailed spirit fox and the lotus giant lizard. They were looking at each other with hatred. ¡°Ah Li¡­ Nero¡­¡± Although there were many kinds of pet beasts, Fang Yuan still felt a familiar aura from them. They were all carrying different wounds on their backs, and their eyes were bloodshot from the battle. At this time, Ah Li had transformed into its lightning state, opening its bloody mouth to prepare for the attack of the lightning skill. Nero also squatted down, and the lotus flower on his back was about to bloom, turning into an endless flying knife. ¡°No!¡± Fang Yuan forgot that this was an illusion. He valued each of his companions very much, and did not want them to kill each other. ¡°You said that you want this kind of power just now. I will show it to you now,¡± the woman said faintly. The three tails and the giant lizard disappeared in front of him. While Fang Yuan was at a loss, he saw a horrifying scene¡­ Ah Li had grown to the height of the giant lizard. Its tails behind had also become nine, like the god of death Nero was even more terrifying. Its figure could no longer be calculated by numbers. It was just a mountain, on which countless tentacles grew. Ah Li¡¯s nine tails seemed to be pulled, releasing nine colors of light toward the mountain. The power was like a missile that shot at Nero¡¯s body. Then, because of the dazzling light resulted by the explosion, Fang Yuan had to close his eyes. After the light dispersed, Ah Li was seen lying on the ground, dying. Nero¡¯s tentacles seemed to have lost its command and drooped down. ¡°This is the limit of power¡­ there is only one king in the pet world¡­ in the end, only one of them can survive¡­¡± ¡°No!¡± Fang Yuan was completely lost in the illusion. He didn¡¯t want to see such a scene. He reached out his hand and wanted to summon Ah Li back to the space, but he found himself suddenly in front of Ah Li. Ah Li¡¯s head was as big as Fang Yuan, but it still relied on Fang Yuan. Seeing Fang Yuan coming over, it rubbed its head against him. ¡°Ah Li:¡± Fang Yuan hugged Ah Li¡¯s head and knelt in front of it. Ah Li stuck out its tongue and licked Fang Yuan. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I don¡¯t want you to become the king of the pet world¡­ I just want to live happily with you guys.¡± At this moment, the masked man that they had seen in the grass arcane realm appeared. He stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to attack Ah Li which was on the ground. Fang Yuan wanted to summon other pet beasts to help. ¡°Xiao Jin!¡± ¡°Shadow Wolf!¡± ¡°Gale Hound!¡± No pet beasts responded to him. The masked man¡¯s attack was ready, and a huge, dazzling black-purple ball whistled toward them. Fang Yuan closed his eyes. ¡°Do you still want this kind of power?¡± The woman¡¯s voice sounded again, and Fang Yuan had returned to the original scene. ¡°I¡­¡± Fang Yuan was a little hesitant. Could this be a prophecy? He had never heard of the king of pet beasts, but why would pet beasts fight each other? Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s hesitant expression, the woman sighed and said, ¡°You¡¯re still not suitable to be a trainer. You don¡¯t have this kind of awareness. Go back.¡± ¡°No!¡± Fang Yuan knew that if he were to turn back now, he might have missed the chance to awaken forever, but he found that he actually could not lie. ¡°Then I¡¯ll die here.¡± After saying this, Fang Yuan returned to the scene just now. The black energy ball was almost touching his face. Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and pushed, but it was obvious that this was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. ¡°I won¡¯t admit defeat!¡± Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and almost roared. He did not know where the power had come from, but this ball was actually blocked by Fang Yuan! Chapter 139 - Tearing the Illusion Apart Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Give up. Do you know what a corps trainer is? Other trainers only control one or two pet beasts. Corps trainers are cursed trainers. We are executioners, the people who bring disaster to the world.¡± The masked man¡¯s voice was still low, but he showed extreme anger. His voice was full of dissatisfaction with himself and the world. ¡°Do you know why most trainers can only have one pet? It¡¯s because in order to pursue extreme strength, only one pet can survive. Only one person can stand at the peak of this world. Do you understand?¡± Although the energy ball would not continue to move, Fang Yuan did not have the strength to push it away. He could only grit his teeth and persevere. He even shouted, ¡°I¡¯m different from you! I don¡¯t want to stand at the peak.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not up to you! Once you walk this path, you can only be free if you walk to the end.¡± Speaking up to this point, Fang Yuan felt that the power in front of him had become even stronger. He could not hold on any longer. Ah Li licked Fang Yuan. At this moment, Fang Yuan¡¯s capillaries had cracked due to the excessive strength in his body, and blood was oozing out. It staggered to its feet and used its body to head the ball, relieving part of the pressure on Fang Yuan. ¡°Ah Li¡­¡± Fang Yuan looked at it and thought of the time they spent together. When he first met Ah Li, it was only the size of a palm. ¡°It¡¯s useless, you have already lost.¡± Ah Li no longer had any strength. It could only lean its entire body on the ball. Fang Yuan felt the pressure on his hand become even greater. He thought to himself, ¡°D*mn it, am I going to die here? I¡¯m not willing.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t give up, Fang Yuan.¡± A familiar voice sounded in Fang Yuan¡¯s heart, and then he saw Nero, who was like a mountain, return to its original state at some point in time. It released a brown light and neutralized this force for Fang Yuan. Moreover, after it, he saw Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin, Xiao Ying, and the gryphon legion. They all appeared, flickering with different lights¡­ ¡°Is this the power you want?¡± In the light, the woman¡¯s voice rang out once again. ¡°Yes!¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s heart was incomparably tenacious at this moment. It was this kind of unity power that he wanted. ¡°Very good¡­¡± The masked man disappeared, and was replaced by the green-furred woman. ¡°This power belongs to you. Make good use of it.¡± [ Ding! Recurrent Utilization detected. Grade: Diamond high-grade ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following ways for the increase. ] [ First, give up 100 times increase, and obtain Recurrent Utilization (diamond high-grade) ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase, and obtain Recurrent Revival (Star Brilliance low-grade) ] ¡°I choose the second¡­¡± ??? The woman looked at Fang Yuan with a puzzled expression, but Fang Yuan did not answer. Instead, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted. ¡­ ¡°Teacher, will Fang Yuan be alright?¡± Xinyu asked worriedly. She had tried to wake Fang Yuan up several times, but was stopped by Huang Ying. The reason she wanted to wake Fang Yuan up was because his body was starting to ooze a lot of blood, making him look exceptionally scary. Huang Ying looked at Fang Yuan with a serious expression. He could feel an ominous power. Fang Yuan¡¯s strength was undoubtedly incomparably powerful. Huang Ying could even feel this through their short interaction. However, Fang Yuan was a person that he could not fathom. Generally speaking, when a trainer¡¯s imprint was awakened, there would be an abnormal phenomenon in the body. For example, when Xinyu was awakened, she would be drenched in sweat. This kind of situation where his entire body was covered in blood, usually would only appear for¡­ killing-type skills. It should not appear in the Huang group¡¯s crystal ball. Just as they were having different thoughts, Fang Yuan¡¯s body was covered by a green light. Following that, the light gathered on the back of Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and condensed into a pattern. The two of them ran towards Fang Yuan at the same time. The latter fell and fortunately, Huang Ying was agile and managed to catch hold of Fang Yuan before he fell to the ground. Looking at the pattern on the back of Fang Yuan¡¯s hand, it was a strange symbol. But in the eyes of people in the real world, that symbol meant ¡°cyclic utilization¡±. When Fang Yuan woke up, he found himself lying on his bed in his dormitory. Xinyu came in with a pot of tea. When she saw Fang Yuan wake up, she quickly ran to the window and asked, ¡°Are you okay?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Fang Yuan was about to ask what had happened, but then the incident during the awakening of the trainer¡¯s imprint appeared in his mind. The source of life¡­ He looked at the symbol on his hand. It was a circle formed by three arrowheads. It looked a little familiar, but he could not remember what symbol it was. Seeing Fang Yuan¡¯s action, Xinyu smiled and said, ¡°With this, you can now use the trainer skill. Try again when your body recovers!¡± ¡°No need to wait.¡± Fang Yuan jumped up from the bed. He had never felt so energetic before. ¡°Senior Sister, how do you use the trainer skill?¡± ¡°This¡­¡± Xinyu was reluctant to let Fang Yuan go out for training now, but Huang Ying¡¯s voice came from outside the door. ¡°Come with me, I¡¯ll teach you how to use it.¡± ¡­ In the fighting arena of Huang group, as currently there were only three people in the group, the fighting arena was almost deserted. At this moment, Fang Yuan and Huang Ying were standing at both ends of the fighting arena. ¡°Summon your pet.¡± Huang Ying had already summoned his phoenix, it was Ah Li that Fang Yuan had summoned. ¡°Put all your attention on the mark.¡± ¡°Establish a spiritual connection with your pet.¡± ¡°Then, follow your thoughts and release the skill.¡± Following Huang Ying¡¯s instruction, Fang Yuan felt an inexplicable movement, just like riding a bike and swimming. It became instinctive after he learned it. ¡°What¡¯s your skill?¡± Huang Ying asked loudly. At this time, he felt like a real instructor. Fang Yuan recalled the name of the mark and answered, ¡°It¡¯s recurrent revival.¡± ¡°Louder!¡± ¡°Recurrent revival!¡± Just as he shouted the name of the skill, he saw an exaggerated scene¡­ ¡°This is?¡± Fang Yuan saw that his body and Ah Li¡¯s body were covered by a faint green light, just like the woman he had seen in the arcane realm. ¡°This is how to use it. Isn¡¯t it very simple?¡± Huang Ying had been serious for a while, but now he had changed back to his jolly manner. ¡°Tell me about your changes. You look quite powerful.¡± Fang Yuan answered, ¡°Its function is to recover mental power during battle, and slowly recover the number of times the skill is used.¡± ¡°This¡­¡± When Fang Yuan read out the skill¡¯s effect, he did not need Huang Ying¡¯s explanation to know what the skill meant. It was equivalent to the infinite magic in RPG games! Chapter 140 - Head for the Trial After awakening his trainer skill, Fang Yuan spent a few more days to consolidate his training. This skill seemed to be invincible, able to last for an entire day. Fang Yuan had spent two months to practice his mental power. Adding this skill, it meant that in a battle, he could summon more pet beats to fight. His strength had increased by another level. As long as he continued to practice, being invincible was only a matter of time. ¡°No, Teacher, I need to rest.¡± Fang Yuan was out of breath and wailed. He was practicing with Huang Ying. Although Fang Yuan could summon five pet beasts to fight together, his pet beast level was too different from Huang Ying¡¯s. After continuous practice, not only him, but Ah Li and the other pet beasts were also exhausted. Fortunately, the spirit healing bee queen had healed everyone, or else they would probably be wounded soldiers. ¡°Teacher, how can I have a star brilliance level pet beast like yours?¡± Fang Yuan fell onto the grass and asked while panting. Huang Ying shook his head and said, ¡°You can only do it yourself. This is a level four arcane realm. Whether it is the forest or the grassland, there are star brilliance level pet beasts. As long as you can defeat them, you have a chance to tame them.¡± Fang Yuan actually yearned to go hunting, but when he recalled the battle with the iron golem, he knew that his current pet beasts, other than Nero, were actually quite different from diamond level pet beasts, not to mention fighting with Huang Ying. ¡°In our arcane realm, the strongest pet beasts usually appear in the demon world¡¯s cave. The pet beasts of our teachers were obtained from there. However, I don¡¯t encourage you to go there for training now, because the battles there are very dangerous. You can¡¯t even defeat me, it¡¯s a dream to hunt pet beasts.¡± ¡°However, you can go for some training now.¡± Huang Ying saw the disappointed expression on Fang Yuan¡¯s face and said, ¡°With your strength, you can go to the low-level places to obtain materials and pet beasts.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan felt extremely excited. The fatigue in his body seemed to have disappeared as he flipped up from the ground. ¡­ ¡°This is the magical beast forest.¡± Huang Ying brought Fang Yuan to the entrance of a forest, and introduced to Fang Yuan, ¡°Any pet beast here has the strength of a diamond grade or above. You can go in and undergo the training. If you encounter any danger, release this signal flare. The other instructors and I will come and save you.¡± The current Fang Yuan was no longer the same as before. Not to mention the diamond low-grade lotus lizard, even a platinum-grade high-grade Ah Li also had the strength to fight a diamond-grade pet beast. ¡°However, don¡¯t try to go deep into the magical beast forest now. My advice to you is to move around at the edge of the magical beast forest. With your ability, you can protect yourself and capture diamond-grade pet beasts. There shouldn¡¯t be a problem.¡± After saying that, Huang Ying rode on his phoenix and flew into the sky. Fang Yuan summoned Ah Li from the pet space. He didn¡¯t know why, but after the trial, he especially liked Ah Li. In that that kind of situation, it still did its best to protect him, which made Fang Yuan very touched. Fang Yuan already knew that it was a dream, but he was still very curious. Was the nine tails really its ultimate form? If the dream was real, then Ah Li and Nero would be his strongest pet beasts. But what was the king of pet beasts? Could it be that after a real pet beast reached the legendary peak, only one could survive? What did that woman mean by what she had told him? But then he shook his head and threw all these random thoughts out of his mind. The most important thing now was to go on an experiential learning. The so-called experiential learning was referring to going to a specific place to fight and explore, just like what Fang Yuan was doing now¡­ ¡°Gray-toothed rabbit, platinum low-grade. ¡± Fang Yuan saw a hopping rabbit in the forest. It looked extremely cute. However, he definitely did not dare to touch the rabbit like touching a puppy, because he had just seen the rabbit kill an iron beetle with its bite skill, and then eat away the iron beetle¡¯s carcass. Its teeth could cut through iron like mud. This forest had an independent appearance system just like the outside world. The gray-toothed rabbit was captured by a black-winged eagle right in front of Fang Yuan. It seemed that it was going to take it back to its nest to enjoy its body. ¡°As expected of a level four secret realm, a platinum low-grade pet beast is only fit to be a creature at the bottom of the food chain here.¡± In fact, this was the first time Fang Yuan had observed a pet beast in the wild. A pet beast that had been tamed by humans could rely on the mental strength of a trainer to feed, while a pet beast in the wild was completely like a wild beast, feeding on other pet beasts. The lowest grade were those herbivorous pet beasts. They generally did not have much fighting strength, and could only be the carnivorous pet beasts¡¯ food. After strolling in the forest with Ah Li, Fang Yuan finally understood why Huang Ying told him not to enter the depths of the forest. Just by walking a little further in the outer area, the platinum high-grade pet beasts had become lacking in fighting strength. Fortunately, although Ah Li was a fox, its alertness was not bad. It was good for him to be used as a scout. With Ah Li as a scout, Fang Yuan did not encounter any danger along the way. They followed the small path and headed deeper into the magical beast forest. Fang Yuan was not afraid of fighting, but he did not want to fight with these weak pet beasts. What he wanted was to capture a diamond pet beast that he could use. For example, the light pet beast that he desperately needed. Suddenly, Ah Li bared his teeth at the grass by the side of the road, as if it had encountered danger. Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan immediately perked up and stared at the short grass. A white-headed tiger with long teeth suddenly jumped out. [ Scientific name: Steel-Toothed Tiger. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Platinum Peak. ] [ Level: Level five-low. ] [ Attributes: Beast, gold. ] [ Positioning: Attack, mount. ] ¡°It¡¯s just a platinum peak steel-toothed tiger.¡± Fang Yuan sighed regretfully. This action made the steel-toothed tiger feel as if it had been greatly humiliated. Ah Li easily defeated the steel-toothed tiger in front of it. With the trainer¡¯s equipment and skills, Fang Yuan and his pet had improved a lot. Thinking about it carefully, although this steel-toothed tiger looked very weak, its strength was almost the same as when he first met the gale hound. At that time, Ah Li had no fighting ability in front of the gale hound. It was almost killed in one hit. Now, Ah Li could also kill a platinum peak pet beast in one hit, and its level had also risen to a shocking level 10 upper tier. In the battle in the forest, after the steel-toothed tiger died, Fang Yuan saw that there were sparkling spots of light on its body. It looked a bit like the experience fruit dropped from killing mandrake grass. Chapter 141 - Fortuitous Encounter in the Forest Fang Yuan walked forward to search for it, only to find that it was an item that had dropped. It was a small ¡°tiger tooth¡± [ Ding! Steel tiger tooth detected. Grade: Platinum Pinnacle ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain a platinum pinnacle steel tiger tooth. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and obtain the diamond low-grade alloy tiger tooth. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect, and obtain the platinum pinnacle steel tiger tooth (strengthened). ] ¡°Check the effect.¡± Steel tiger tooth: A weapon for beast-type pets which increased attack by 5% after equipping. It could be used as a smelting material to obtain steel powder. Alloy tiger tooth: A weapon for beast-type pets which increased attack by 10% after equipping. It could be used as a smelting material to obtain alloy powder. Smelting? It sounded like the research that Zhao Ren and the others had done. The increase in attack power was not much, but it was better than nothing. Fang Yuan wanted to give the tiger tooth to Ah Li, but he received a notification. ¡°Soul stones are the only equipment. Soul stones can not be used for other equipment.¡± ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll keep it for the gale hounds. There¡¯s no rush.¡± Fang Yuan thought and threw the tiger tooth into his backpack. However, after knowing that equipment and materials could be dropped during a battle, Fang Yuan decided not to sneak forward like a newbie. Instead, he called out the gale hound, shadow wolf, and steel bears to hunt. As they were in the forest, Fang Yuan really wanted to call out the gryphon legion to hunt. It would be more efficient that way. However, when he thought about the fact that the gryphon legion was only platinum intermediate-grade, if they really fought, he did not know who would be the prey and the hunter. It would be more convenient to use battle pets. The gale hound used its spit to kill a large reptile. Fang Yuan quickly ran over and picked up a turpentine. In just a short hour, Fang Yuan found that his backpack was already filled with all kinds of materials. With pet equipment, it could directly increase the pet¡¯s attributes. There was also food that the pet liked to eat, which could increase the pet¡¯s loyalty. There were also materials that could be used to refine the pet upgrade potion. For example the upgrade pills that could be obtained from the information desk every month, the materials actually came from this forest. Fang Yuan had unknowingly arrived at a place far away from the edge of the forest. He could feel that danger was not far away. There was a strong sense of oppression coming from the forest. This sense of oppression had even made the steel bear feel threatened. ¡°Should I continue to move forward?¡± Fang Yuan asked himself in his heart. So far, the highest level he had encountered was the platinum pinnacle steel-toothed tiger. If he moved forward, he might be able to meet diamond-level pet beasts, which were the kings of this forest. If he did not enter the tiger¡¯s den, he would not get the tiger¡¯s cub. Fang Yuan decided to continue moving forward. However, he definitely could not just swagger into the beast¡¯s den now. He sent the other pet beasts back into the pet beast space, leaving only Ah Li, who was on alert, to protect him. As he moved forward quietly, Fang Yuan felt the smell of blood becoming stronger. Ah Li usually looked gentle, but now it was standing in front of Fang Yuan loyally. This scene reminded Fang Yuan of what he saw in the illusion. Then, Fang Yuan smiled in relief. He felt that Ah Li could really become such a powerful guy. However, he would never let the scene of them killing each other appear. ¡°Shh.¡± The fishy smell became stronger and stronger. At this moment, Fang Yuan heard a strange sound. He sneakily pushed aside the grass and looked in the direction of the sound. The thing that attracted his eyes was a tyrannosaurus. It was gnawing on the carcass of a pet beast. It looked like the pet beast was the steel-toothed tiger. ¡°Urgh.¡± Looking at the scene in front of him, he could not help but feel a little disgusted. Although the law on the weak are the prey of the strong was very natural, seeing such a scene up close was still quite a shock to him. Perhaps this was the real world of pet beasts. Previously, he could not feel it because he was living in school. He had always said that he wanted to pursue the truth of the world. If he could not take such a scene, then he was really a waste. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan stopped the feeling of disgust in his heart and looked at the pet beast in front of him. [ ??? ] True enough, this pet beast was above diamond grade. In Fang Yuan¡¯s current database, there were only all the information of pet beasts below diamond grade. From the battle experience in the forest just now, most of the pet beasts in this forest used physical attacks, which was the so-called metal element. The tyrannosaurus in front of him was biting the steel-toothed tiger that was as hard as steel. It was as if it was tearing paper. Its close combat ability must be very strong. ¡°Sneak attack,¡± Fang Yuan thought. ¡°Ah Li, use the lightning ball.¡± The reason why Fang Yuan didn¡¯t attack earlier was that he didn¡¯t know if it had any companions. After observing for more than ten minutes, he confirmed that there were no other pet beasts nearby. This kind of carnivorous pet beast should have a sense of territory, unless it was time to mate, then there was a possibility that two pet beasts would appear. A ball with lightning struck the head of the tyrannosaurus that was eating and exploded. However, the tyrannosaurus was not injured. It only howled angrily. Ah Li¡¯s lightning skill had the special effect of lightning and fire, but¡­ This tyrannosaurus seemed to have a special resistance to fire. Just like when Ah Li was struck by lightning and fire, the flames on its body disappeared in a few seconds. The howling of the tyrannosaurus at the sky made people tremble. ¡°[ Deterrence ] (intermediate): Movement speed, attack, and attack speed all reduced by 50%.¡± Fang Yuan suddenly thought of this. He looked at Ah Li¡¯s attributes, and sure enough, they were greatly reduced. He was also frightened by this voice, and felt as if he had been stared at by Xiao Jin. Although the tyrannosaurus had short legs, its speed was not slow. Plop. Plop. It swung its short legs and ran over. Every time it ran, it felt as if the earth and the mountains were shaking. This weight was definitely as heavy as ten steel bears. ¡°Ah Li, quickly use your wind chasing skill and dodge its attack!¡± Seeing the tyrannosaurus charging at Ah Li, Fang Yuan¡¯s first reaction was to let Ah Li dodge. However, Ah Li refused because if it dodged, then after the tyrannosaurus charged over, there would be nothing to shield Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan only reacted at this time. He summoned Xiao Jin, riding on it and flying up. Ah Li only prepared to escape at this moment. The tyrannosaurus bit down and Ah Li dodged to the side. This was really a critical moment because although the tyrannosaurus did not manage to bite Ah Li, it still bit off a pile of fur. ¡°Ah Li, you must not be attacked.¡± Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan became worried. If the attack had hit Ah Li, it would have been a disaster. Ah Li was not afraid of elemental attacks, but physical attacks were deadly to it. ¡°Maybe I can use Nero to fight¡­¡± Fang Yuan thought, but Ah Li objected. Ah Li said that it could take care of this big guy in front of it. Chapter 142 - Only One Chance Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Okay.¡± As a physics-type pet beast, its attack and defense were both top-notch. Moreover, as the king of carnivores on the land, the tyrannosaurus had a deterrence skill that could reduce the opponent¡¯s attack, defense, and movement speed by half. ¡°Switch to wind form.¡± As an experienced trainer, Fang Yuan naturally knew how to fight against such a guy. Just now, to protect him from being hurt, Ah Li couldn¡¯t dodge the tyrannosaurus¡¯s attack in time. Now that he was out of the battlefield, Ah Li could play freely. Transforming into a messenger of the wind, Ah Li was no longer an easy prey to be caught. The tyrannosaurus¡¯s attack method was also very simple. It ran over quickly and used its bloody mouth to bite the other party. ¡°But can a pet beast of this level really dominate the periphery of the forest?¡± Fang Yuan was puzzled when he saw the tyrannosaurus being played around by Ah Li. In the periphery of the forest, it was true that most of the pet beasts were physics-type creatures with extremely hard shells. Could it be that it could survive in this forest just by relying on brutal force? If this was the case, then if the steel gryphon was upgraded to a diamond and became an alloy gryphon, wouldn¡¯t it be able to do whatever it wanted? The tyrannosaurus was very fast. Coupled with the deceleration effect of deterrence, it could hunt down most pet beasts. It seemed very reasonable, but Fang Yuan had a vague feeling that the tyrannosaurus did not only have this ability. Otherwise, it would have been defeated by the fast pet beasts long ago. There was no reason for it to dominate this area. The strategy that Fang Yuan had devised for Ah Li was very simple. It was to use the speed advantage to fight a battle of attrition with the opponent. When the distance was increased, he would use the wind blade to attack. ¡°Wind blade¡± was one of the few attack-type skills of the wind attribute. It was usually formed by a pet beast in the form of a bird by flapping its wings. The way Ah Li generated the wind blade was very special. It was created by using its tail to cut through the air. Therefore, it could generate three wind blades at the same time. This special mechanism made it more powerful than ordinary wind-type pet beasts. During this period of time, Ah Li used the wind blades to attack the tyrannosaurus after pulling away. Moreover, every attack was aimed at the tyrannosaurus¡¯s eyes, head, and tail, which looked weak. It felt like fighting a boss in an online game. As if it was tired of this kind of game, the tyrannosaurus stood still and stopped pursuing. Ah Li saw that the distance was right and was ready to use the wind blade skill. However, at this moment, Fang Yuan sensed a sense of danger and shouted to Ah Li, ¡°Don¡¯t stop, run!¡± Although it didn¡¯t know the reason, as a soul pet beast, it couldn¡¯t ignore the host¡¯s orders. Thus, it gave up on attacking and continued to pull away from the tyrannosaurus. The tyrannosaurus stood on the spot and leaned its neck forward. Then, it opened its mouth and roared¡­ This voice seemed to come from hell, causing people¡¯s hearts to tremble. Xiao Jin, who was hovering in the air, heard this voice. Its wings became stiff and couldn¡¯t move. It actually fell straight to the ground. ¡°Not good!¡± Just before they were about to fall to the ground, Fang Yuan summoned Nero to catch them. Otherwise, they would have died falling from such a height. The tyrannosaurus didn¡¯t pay attention to them. Instead, he focused all his attention on Ah Li. Due to this roar, Ah Li couldn¡¯t move anymore. Its whole body was shaking uncontrollably. ¡°Roar¡­¡± The tyrannosaurus was extremely tired of this guy jumping around in front of it. Now, it only wanted to run in front of it as fast as possible and tear it into pieces. However, it did not succeed. The lotus lizard stretched out its vines and firmly pulled the tyrannosaurus. ¡°Its strength is too strong,¡± said Nero. The four vines that grabbed the tyrannosaurus were actually forcefully torn off. Its vines were a part of its body. If it was torn apart, it would be no different from a broken limb. The only difference was that the vines were plants. They could grow back even if they were broken, but it would take time. Now that Nero only had four vines, it could not be injured again. To finish the battle quickly, Nero squatted down and used its killer skill ¡ª Lotus Flying Knife. The blooming lotus petals danced like the moonlight, surrounding the tyrannosaurus in the middle. The tyrannosaurus, who was focused on Ah Li just a moment ago, was now focused on Nero, the giant reptile. Speaking of which, they were of the same species. Fang Yuan did not know why he suddenly thought of this. Just now, he had activated his trainer skill. Now, the three pet beasts on the field were surrounded by a green glow, and their mental power was continuously recovering. One petal after another cut the tyrannosaurus¡¯s skin, making a sound like a bullet hitting a steel plate. The tyrannosaurus¡¯s body was too hard, and even the diamond-grade skill lotus throwing knife could not hurt it at all. The tyrannosaurus was very afraid of the flying petals just now, but now that it was sure that this thing could not break its defense, it slowly moved forward in a defensive posture and approached Nero. ¡°Its power is too strong.¡± Nero made a rough judgment of it, ¡°It is definitely not diamond low-grade.¡± This was what Fang Yuan was thinking. According to his understanding, the pet beasts in the forest should have a gradual increase in grade. He had just met a pet beast at the peak of platinum, and after that area, the first one he met was a diamond low-grade pet beast. But according to Nero, this tyrannosaurus was above this grade. ¡°Don¡¯t let it get close. Think of something.¡± Nero saw that the tyrannosaurus was getting closer and closer to him, and actually sent a distress signal to Fang Yuan. It could be seen that even Nero, who was powerful, was afraid of the tyrannosaurus¡¯s close combat ability. From the beginning of the battle with Ah Li, Fang Yuan had been paying attention to the tyrannosaurus¡¯s movements. Its defense was almost flawless. Its eyes, mouth, tail, and chest were all attacked, but the wind blade did not cause any killing moves, and the attempt to use the vines to control the other party also failed. The tyrannosaurus¡¯s strength was really too great. Ah Li and Xiao Jin were currently unable to move, so they were definitely unable to come and support Nero. Right now, they did not seem to have any pet beasts that could restrain the tyrannosaurus. At this moment, Fang Yuan thought of something. The tyrannosaurus¡¯s running speed was very fast, but it was different from a beast-type pet beast. It relied on two legs to run. So, how about using a trap? ¡°Nero, can your vine support a kick from it?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know, why do you ask?¡± ¡°I have an idea¡­¡± After listening to Fang Yuan¡¯s tactics, Nero said, ¡°You¡¯re really daydreaming, I¡¯ve never seen such a battle method.¡± ¡°But, I think we can try, maybe something interesting will happen.¡± After saying that, Nero stood up. He actually kept the lotus flower. This also meant that the effect of the lotus flower throwing knife was canceled. There were no more obstacles between him and the tyrannosaurus. Chapter 143 - Devour Skill Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The tyrannosaurus clearly did not know what had happened. It had just lowered its body and slowly moved forward to block the lotus flying knife. At this moment, the petals that were flying in the sky had disappeared. Its heart was wild with joy, and it roared at the sky again. As expected, even Nero¡¯s body was covered with a [ deterrence ] effect. This was enough to prove that the tyrannosaurus was above Nero, because high-grade pet beasts were almost not affected by the negative effects of low-grade pet beasts. However, Nero was not a speed-type pet beast, so there was no special meaning in reducing its speed by 50% . It just stood there motionlessly. In the eyes of the tyrannosaurus, it had given up fighting and was waiting to die. The tyrannosaurus drooled and ran towards Nero at high speed! Just when it thought it was going to succeed, two vines appeared at its feet. It ran so fast that it did not have time to brake. Its body lost its balance and fell towards Nero. ¡°It really tripped.¡± Fang Yuan actually just wanted to try his luck. It was the last resort. When the tyrannosaurus ran, its body leaned forward. If it ran at full speed and its feet tripped on a hard object, there was a high chance that it would fall. And the place where it fell was right in front of Nero. Although Nero fought most of the time with plant moves, it had another identity, which was the giant lizard. It was also a pet carnivore. After it evolved to diamond grade, it even had the devour skill. Last time, Nero had wanted to eat the Holy Armored Beast, which was out of Fang Yuan¡¯s plan. Fang Yuan did not want to directly take away the pet of others. This time, Fang Yuan had no reason to stop it. The moment the tyrannosaurus fell in front of Nero, Nero wrapped four vines tightly around its feet to prevent it from standing up, and then bit the neck of the tyrannosaurus. No matter how the other party struggled, it would not let go. The tyrannosaurus opened its mouth and bit everywhere, but it could not reach Nero. It could only bite empty air, and blood was oozing out of its mouth. Fang Yuan closed his eyes. He did not want to see such a scene. It was not because of his nature, but he really did not like to see blood. Not long after, the tyrannosaurus lost its vital signs and stopped struggling. Its eyes were wide open, and its tongue was sticking out, drooping on the ground. Nero seemed to have not eaten for a long time. It was gobbling down its food, and the sound it made made Fang Yuan shudder. After eating, Nero stuck out its tongue and licked the blood off its mouth. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, I¡¯m not a bloodthirsty guy,¡± Nero said to Fang Yuan, ¡°In fact, by devouring other pet beasts, I can achieve independent evolution. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can check my status.¡± Fang Yuan nodded and checked Nero¡¯s status through spiritual sense. Its grade had actually risen to diamond intermediate-grade, and its level had also risen to level-15-intermediate. ¡°Is this the ability to devour?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously, ¡°If so, won¡¯t you be invincible if you devour a few more pet beasts?¡± No wonder it showed an excited expression when it learned that it had evolved into a diamond. With this skill, it was simply an unlimited growth. ¡°No, it can only devour pets that are higher than me. Moreover, through devouring, I obtained one of its skills. Do you want to see its information?¡± There was such a good thing? Fang Yuan quickly nodded and signaled Nero to show him the information about the tyrannosaurus. [ Scientific name: Alloyed Tyrannosaurus. ] [ Bloodline: None. ] [ Quality: Diamond intermediate-grade. ] [ Level: Level-15-intermediate. ] [ Attributes: Dragon, physics ] [ Positioning: Attack, support, control ] [ Skills: 1. Deterrence, 2. Bite, 3. Life steal, 4. Critical Strike, 5. Song of Tremors. ] Seeing the name of the skills, sweat trickled down Fang Yuan¡¯s forehead. The other skills were still alright. He was definitely the king of close combat physics. Three of them were passive while one was active. However, that move that made Xiao Jin and Ah Li unable to move was actually called Song of Tremors. That was worthy of being called a song¡­ ¡°Then which skill did you learn?¡± Fang Yuan asked Nero curiously. If it was Song of Tremors, it would be great. It had almost reached the level of complete control as one could not even fly, and only passively take the beating. ¡°Unfortunately, I learned the deterrence skill,¡± Nero said mockingly, seeing through Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughts. In fact, the deterrence skill was not bad either. It had half of the effect of Song of Tremors on pets below the same grade and below. As long as its grade increased, it would be fine. However, Fang Yuan really did not expect to encounter a diamond intermediate-grade pet beast just as he entered the deeper part of the forest. It would probably be more dangerous if he went in. He suddenly thought of something and ran to the carcass of the tyrannosaurus to search. He found a [ alloy dragon claw ] . [ Ding. Alloy Dragon Claw detected. Grade: Diamond intermediate-grade ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain a diamond intermediate-grade alloy dragon claw. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and obtain the diamond high-grade alloy dragon claw. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in effect, and obtain the diamond intermediate-grade alloy dragon claw (strengthened). ] Diamond intermediate-grade alloy dragon claw: A weapon of a reptile-type pet. It increased attack by 15% after equipping. It could be used as a smelting material to obtain alloy powder; Diamond high-grade alloy dragon claw: A weapon of a reptile-type pet. It increased attack by 20% after equipping. It could be used as a smelting material to obtain alloy powder; Diamond intermediate grade alloy dragon claw (strengthened): It increased attack by 25% after equipping. It could be used as a smelting material to obtain alloy powder Fang Yuan felt that this strengthening system was quite interesting. This 100 times strengthened strength was more significant than the 100 times strengthened quality to improve the equipment. Without hesitation, he chose three. Fang Yuan obtained the strengthened dragon claw and threw it to Nero, saying, ¡°Can you equip this thing?¡± This thing was directly absorbed into Nero¡¯s body, but there was no change in its appearance. Fang Yuan asked with confusion, ¡°You can use it now?¡± ¡°What did you give me?¡± Nero did not answer Fang Yuan, but asked back instead. ¡°I only feel that my desire to attack has become stronger.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a material dropped by the tyrannosaurus, it should only increase your lethality. Do you feel It?¡± ¡°Yes, I feel that my vines are more powerful.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you know about pet equipment?¡± In Fang Yuan¡¯s heart, Nero was almost an omniscient existence, but it seemed that it knew nothing about the effects of the equipment just now. ¡°No, I don¡¯t know what that is,¡± Nero answered frankly, ¡°That is probably the power that only you humans can sense.¡± Was there such a thing? The pet beast could sense the power of nature, but it could not feel the power of the equipment. In its eyes, it had just touched the alloy dragon claw and it had already fused into its body. It did not even know what had happened. Was the concept of equipment invented by humans? Chapter 144 - Strange Humans Fang Yuan decided to continue his exploration. On one hand, the lotus giant lizard had been strengthened just now and had reached the diamond intermediate-grade. It should have the ability to protect Fang Yuan. On the other hand, Fang Yuan was not willing to leave. He had come to the devil world forest to obtain power. If he just left after strengthening the lotus giant lizard, that was not the result that Fang Yuan wanted to see. He was worried that the Matthew effect would become more serious after this. The lotus giant lizard¡¯s strength would be the greatest in the entire team. That was not the result that Fang Yuan wanted to see. Since he had summoned Nero, Xiao Jin was not needed for the time being. Fang Yuan was riding on Nero and and slowly moving forward. Now, only Nero and Ah Li were left. Ah Li led the way while Nero carried Fang Yuan forward and destroyed the weak pet beasts that came close. This scene reminded Fang Yuan of the scene he saw when he awakened the mark. It was the battle between Ah Li and Nero. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan remembered that he had not told Nero about this. ¡°Nero, do you know what the King of Pet Beasts is?¡± ¡°Every kind of pet beast has its own king. The king is supreme, and the other pet beasts must listen to the king,¡± Nero answered. ¡°I have never heard of the King of Pet Beasts, but we usually call the strongest of our kind as ¡®king¡¯. They have absolute control over their own kind, and all the pet beasts want to be king.¡± ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself that the illusion should not be real. After all, the man who commanded the Silverwood monkey to fight with him the last time could not have such powerful strength. It was completely a shadow in his heart, and it had molded him into an indestructible man. Pet beasts and humans seemed to see a completely different world. Pet beast like Nero, who could speak human language, was definitely different. Even if they established a spiritual connection with the pet beasts, it did not mean that they could completely understand the thoughts of the pet beasts. They would only express their intention to attack and want something, not purely communicate. This was also the reason why he joined the Huang group. It was said that they could learn how to communicate with the pets in the Huang group, just like how Xinyu¡¯s trainer skill awakened the ancestral memories of the pets. If that was his skill, it would be too powerful. He believed that if Nero awakened the ancestral skill, he would not meet an opponent below the star brilliance grade. Along the way, other than some killer bees that did not know what was good for Nero (it seemed to be treating it as a flower), he did not see any other pets. He did not know if it was because they were afraid or because there were really no other pets nearby. ¡°Ah Li, are there no other pet beasts nearby? Higher level ones are fine, too.¡± Ah Li sniffed on the ground and then shook his head, indicating that he didn¡¯t smell any creatures. Strange. Could it be that there was a particularly powerful pet beast nearby that had scared away all the other pet beasts? ¡­ After continuing forward for a while, Ah Li suddenly became alert. The enemy was coming! The lotus giant lizard was too big to be used for scouting. Fang Yuan asked it to stay where it was. As long as it was within a one-kilometer radius, its position could be sensed. Therefore, he left it here. Fang Yuan and Ah Li lay in the grass to scout for the enemy. What surprised Fang Yuan was that what he saw was not a pet beast, but something similar to a human tent. ¡°This is¡­¡± Just as Fang Yuan was puzzled, a purple-skinned human or humanoid creature appeared. She had the ears of an elder elf, and her eyes were bigger than ordinary people. She had long hair, and if not for her purple skin, she would have been a beauty. She should be a more iconic beauty. And there was actually more than one. She actually opened her mouth to speak. ¡°Uncle Tara, we¡¯ve captured all the pet beasts in the vicinity. When are we going home?¡± An uncle with a big beard, who looked very kind, said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Vera. After the search team has all returned and confirmed that there are no pet beasts in the vicinity, we can go home.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Vera smiled and said, ¡°Then uncle, I¡¯ll walk around for a while. I¡¯ll be back in a while.¡± The uncle called Tara nodded and said, ¡°Pay attention to the time. You must return to the camp before the sun sets.¡± Driven by curiosity, Fang Yuan tiptoed forward with Vera. They seemed to be the initiators of the strange phenomenon in this area, which needed to be investigated. The girl hummed a strange song and skipped around without any vigilance. Moreover, Fang Yuan and Ah Li hid well and didn¡¯t let her notice. The girl came to a small river. Then, she waved her hand and summoned a small purple ball with wings. There was only one eye in front of it, and it held a small stone spear in its hand. ¡°Little magic ball, I want to take a bath. Help me keep watch.¡± After saying that, she kissed the little magic ball on its face. Other than its face, the other parts of the little guy were purple. However, its fair face instantly turned red. Then, it made a salutation gesture and flew into the sky to investigate. The girl, on the other hand, took off her clothes one by one and walked into the river. Although it was a arcane realm, there were days and nights and seasons in this arcane realm. It was late autumn now, and even Fang Yuan, who was only wearing a long sleeve, felt a little cold. The girl did not feel cold at all and jumped into the river to take a bath. Fang Yuan could not help but look elsewhere. He thought, ¡°I¡¯ll think of a way to capture her and interrogate her when she comes out.¡± He leaned against the tree and no longer looked at the riverside. ¡°Enemy, enemy!¡± The little magic ball just now shouted loudly. ¡°Eh? Have we been discovered?¡± Fang Yuan hid in the grass vigilantly. At this time, he looked at the riverside again and found another group of people with purple skin looking at Vera in the river with ill intentions. ¡°Is this Princess Vera of the Green Tribe?¡± ¡°Her skin is so good. It must be delicious when cooked.¡± They were in front of Fang Yuan at this moment, so Fang Yuan could only see their backs. ¡°You are from the Blue tribe. Why are you in our territory?¡± Vera quickly put on a transparent clothing, which covered all the parts that should be covered, however, she didn¡¯t know that this kind of clothing could arouse people¡¯s primitive temptation. ¡°Boss, don¡¯t talk nonsense with her. Let¡¯s capture her first. Whether it¡¯s eating her or using her to threaten the Indigo Tribe, she¡¯s very useful.¡± ¡°That makes sense. Hehehe.¡± Fang Yuan counted carefully. There were five people in this team. They were all wearing animal skin long skirts that symbolized the primitive tribe. The one who was called the team leader should be the only man wearing a feathered crown. ¡°There are not only humans in the arcane realm, but also different tribes?¡± This had indeed refreshed Fang Yuan¡¯s understanding. Chapter 145 - War between Races ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it!¡± Vera fought back and summoned a black panther with green tattoo on its body. Meanwhile, the people of the Indigo Tribe summoned five giant moths. ¡°We can¡¯t find anything about them, which means their strength is above platinum.¡± Fang Yuan and Ah Li suppressed their auras and were not discovered for the time being. The little magic ball that was flying in the air just now returned to Vera, and a fierce battle seemed inevitable. ¡°Attack, paralyzing powder!¡± The Indigo Tribe was the first to launch an attack. As they had five moths, they had a variety of tactics to choose from. A moth flapped its wings, and the powder visible to the naked eye flew toward the black panther and the little black ball. ¡°Little Magic Ball, use the lightning dart gun.¡± ¡°Little Thunder, use the thunder beast descent!¡± Vera obviously was a person with rich battle experience. She was not flustered by the sneak attack. Instead, she pulled the horn of the counterattack clearly. The spear in the little black ball¡¯s hand gathered lightning, and it grew bigger and bigger. Then, it was suddenly thrown out. Its target was the moth flapping its wings. ¡°I¡¯ve been tricked.¡± Three moths appeared behind them. Even Fang Yuan did not see how they moved over. ¡°Wind arrow!¡± Fang Yuan recognized their attacks. If wind blade was already a very high-level wind-type attack skill, then wind arrow was undoubtedly a higher-level attack skill. The damage caused by gathering energy attacks into one point, it was undoubtedly more powerful than the wind blade in a single line. Moreover, three arrows flew towards the little magic ball at the same time. However, at this moment, the black panther¡¯s entire body was wrapped in lightning. Its entire body was emitting a powerful electric current to the surroundings. It could be seen with the naked eye that the wind arrow was broken in half at the waist. Good heavens. Seeing their battle, Fang Yuan was unconsciously attracted. This was not a battle between wild beasts, but a battle between trainers with a game of chess. It was just a pity that Vera was facing five people alone. There were four pet beasts, but what about the other one? When Fang Yuan was thinking of this, a series of wind arrows pierced through the black Panther¡¯s lightning defense and shot it to the ground. It was the leader¡¯s moth, which looked bigger than the other moths, on par with Ah Li. The skill it used was continuous wind arrows. Even a pet beast with high defense would not be able to withstand its continuous attacks. After the black panther was shot to the ground, it did not fall and collapse. Instead, it stood up and bared its teeth at them. Then, its body and the little magic ball were covered by a blue light. This was the sign of the trainer skill being activated. It was just that Fang Yuan did not know about the use of this skill. However, Fang Yuan soon could see it. Regardless the black panther or the little magic ball, their lightning became even thicker in this state. The black panther had turned into a huge lightning ball, shooting plasma in all directions. It landed beside Fang Yuan and Ah Li several times, scaring the hell out of him. ¡°Hehehe, as expected of the Elder¡¯s daughter.¡± The members of the Indigo Tribe were not scared by these attacks. Their pets were injured after being struck by lightning, but it was far from the point where they had to leave. Their bodies were also covered by a green light. Their green was completely different from Fang Yuan¡¯s green. Fang Yuan¡¯s skill was only a weak green light on the surface of his body, while their bodies were like burning in green flames. ¡°Let me show you our combined skill! Wind killing array!¡± Five moths gathered together. Four moths surrounded the largest one, pin. They flapped their wings desperately, while the huge moth seemed to be preparing for something. ¡°Not good, get out of the way!¡± Vera shouted loudly. She immediately deactivated the black panther¡¯s thunder beast descent status and let it escape into the distance while she kept retreating. A green magic circle then appeared in front of the moth. Wind blades flew out from the circle like the lotus flower flying daggers of the lotus lizard. The attack density had covered all the creatures within the fan-shaped area, including the black panther, Vera and the little magic ball. All were all wounded by the wind blades and fell to the ground. ¡°Hehe.¡± Seeing Vera and her pet beasts lying on the ground, the people of the Indigo Tribe stopped their attacks. They came to Vera¡¯s side and picked her up. At this moment, Fang Yuan found out that although the faces of the people of the Indigo Tribe looked like him, their tongues were really very long. The leader had even stretched out his tongue and started to lick Vera¡¯s body, as if he was savoring it, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face. ¡°Pervert.¡± Fang Yuan thought. He had already summoned the lotus giant lizard over, although he felt that it was not a rational act to save Vera. However, as a man, he still had to have a heroic spirit. Moreover, there were no more pet beasts here. If he did not take advantage of them, he would have come for nothing. If he really couldn¡¯t beat them, he could still ask for help from his teacher. It shouldn¡¯t be a problem for his teacher to deal with these guys. ¡°Captain, let¡¯s go quickly.¡± A small lackey looked at the leader who was immersed and couldn¡¯t extricate himself, it seemed that he couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. He said, ¡°The daughter of the elder of the Green Tribe is here. There must be elite members here. We might not be their opponent.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± The captain carried Vera on his shoulder and prepared to bring her back to the tribe and eat her. ¡°As for those two guys, you guys deal with them.¡± The two guys that he was talking about in his cold voice should be the black panther and the little magic ball that were lying on the ground , losing their mobility. ¡°Get ready to die. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for following the wrong master. Especially you, as the descendant of a godly beast, you are actually loyal to the Green Tribe that betrayed the god.¡± A small lackey held a long spear in his hand and was ready to stab the black panther¡¯s body nagged. ¡°D*mn you, Ah Li. Use the wind blades and directly attack the trainer!¡± To be honest, Fang Yuan did not want to kill anyone, but that did not mean that he did not dare to do so. The people of the Indigo Tribe in front of him did not look like good people. They even bullied a weak woman at the expense of five people. They had already broken through Fang Yuan¡¯s bottom line in his understanding of bad people. Ah Li¡¯s three wind blades formed an equilateral triangle and slashed past the small lackey¡¯s body. It left a very deep wound, but it was not broken. ¡°They are indeed not humans.¡± Fang Yuan did not know whether he was disappointed or glad. The result of his actions was that he was surrounded by the remaining four people. ¡°Humans! D*mn humans, how dare they harm us!¡± The leader shouted, with his expression becoming extremely ferocious. From their tone and expression, it could be seen that they were filled with hatred towards humans. Chapter 146 - Breaking the Formation Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Tear it apart, headwind butterfly!¡± They did not care about anything else and directly launched merciless attacks at Fang Yuan. Soon, the four moths flew into the air and used their wind arrow skills. Their target was obviously Fang Yuan. However, they did not succeed because Ali¡¯s wind blade skills were faster. Although it did not destroy any of the moths, it interrupted their charging process, causing the arrows to disappear before they could form. Ali ran over, picked up Fang Yuan and threw him onto its body. Just because it interrupted their skill did not mean that they would stop attacking. Fang Yuan also understood it. Ali was not very heavy now, but it was more than enough to carry him. Fang Yuan thus stuck his body to Ali¡¯s body, dodging the arrows that flew over one after another. ¡°Ali, use your wind chasing skill to increase your speed!¡± Fang Yuan said. Once again, Ali rejected Fang Yuan¡¯s order, because¡­ If he increased his speed, Fang Yuan¡¯s body would not be able to withstand it. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about me,¡± said Fang Yuan. He wanted to summon Xiao Jin, but he realized that his spiritual power link was broken, so he was actually unable to summon any pet beasts! There was something wrong with this azure blue tribe! However, now was not the time to think about these things. The moths¡¯ wind arrow attacks became more and more intense. Ali¡¯s hind legs were shot, and his speed was obviously reduced. ¡°Ali¡­ use the wind chasing skill. I can hold on!¡± shouted Fang Yuan who also gritted his teeth. If this continued, whether it was him or Ali, they would both die here before Nero arrived. ¡°Ugh¡­¡±Ali kept resisting, but fang yuan directly used his soul skill to give it an order. Ali could not refuse this request. After adding the wind chasing skill, Ali¡¯s speed had broken through the sound barrier, and even wind arrow could not catch up with him at all. He would not be injured, but Fang Yuan, who was on its body, felt the torture of his body because of this extremely fast speed¡­ His eardrums were in intense pain, and he could not open his eyes. His body felt like it was about to be torn apart by the pressure. ¡°D*mn it, if only I knew the listening skill mentioned earlier¡­ How should I use it?¡± ¡°You should feel it¡­¡± A voice that came out of nowhere responded to Fang Yuan¡¯s question. ¡°Feel it?¡± Fang Yuan was currently communicating mentally with Ali, but he could not understand Ali¡¯s voice. Ali had been shouting something, but he could not understand it at all. ¡°But I remember senior said that it¡¯s a trainer skill. If you can¡¯t feel it with your brain, can you use the Mark?¡± Fang Yuan could not open his eyes. Thinking of this, he began to focus all his attention on the mark, just like the first time he used a trainer skill¡­ ¡°Come on, Master.¡± This was not the voice just now. This slender female voice and this name, it was definitely Ali! He heard Ali¡¯s call! ¡°Master, can you hear my voice?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Alright, listen to my incantation now. Recite it yourself!¡± Following that was a series of strange syllables. Fang Yuan¡¯s body was feeling extremely uncomfortable, but he still suppressed this impulse and imitated Ali¡¯s voice as he recited the incantation. ¡°Great, master, you¡¯ve succeeded!¡± After chanting the incantation, the huge pressure that Fang Yuan felt instantly disappeared. He actually entered the wind chasing state with Ali, and the wind did not seem to pose any threat to him at all. He could even feel the presence of the wind and hold it in his hand¡­ ¡°Ali, you can speak?¡± ¡°No, but you can understand me well.¡± This skill was too magical. No wonder it was called listening. So it could really understand the language of pets. ¡°Master, we have to find an opportunity to fight back. Hold on to me.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan hugged Ali tightly and stuck to its body. No matter how many arrows fell on them, they could no longer be hurt. However, Fang Yuan saw from the corner of his eyes that the other party had started to prepare the wind killing formation again. He had seen the power of this formation just now. Once it was formed, they would probably have no way to dodge the attack other than running for several kilometers. ¡°Ali, can you withstand this damage?¡± Fang Yuan recalled that he had given Ali some spirit stones previously, which could reduce wind damage by 75% . Even if it was of a higher level, it could still protect itself well. ¡°I should be able to withstand it, but not you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about me. I¡¯ve noticed it just now. When they use the wind slaughtering formation, they seem to need a long time to prepare. If I can interrupt them at this time¡­¡± With that, Ali dodged another arrow. The wind slaughtering formation did not need five headwind butterflies. Four was enough. The guy who had been injured by Ali just now stood up and ordered his headwind butterflies to attack Ali. It was obvious that he was trying to stall for time. After receiving Fang Yuan¡¯s order, Ali no longer ran in the opposite direction. Instead, he dodged the arrows of the wind while charging toward the elite headwind butterfly that was preparing to combine its skills. ¡°But, what happens after we interrupt them?¡± ¡°We¡¯ll talk about it later.¡± Fang Yuan was also thinking about this. With Ali¡¯s condition, it seemed like he couldn¡¯t even defeat a headwind butterfly. Nevertheless, if they formed a fusion skill, then there was no hope of survival. ¡°Stop him!¡± The headwind butterfly, who had been attacking Ali all this time, discovered Ali¡¯s purpose and blocked in front of the wind killing formation. ¡°Do you want to die? Do you think that you will be safe after the formation is formed?¡± Ali stared at the headwind butterfly. ¡°So what if I die for the King?¡± ¡°You¡¯re really crazy.¡± Ali knocked it away. Its close combat ability was very weak, but it had thick skin. Ali¡¯s attacks could not kill it in one hit. Moreover, it had discovered fang yuan. After it was knocked away, it adjusted its direction and stretched out its six legs to grab fang yuan. ¡°D*mn it¡­¡± Fang Yuan was caught by it. Its strength might not be as strong as Ali¡¯s, but compared to Fang Yuan who was a human, it was much stronger. Fang Yuan was almost unable to hold Ali. ¡­ ¡°Roar!!!¡± An earth-shaking roar was heard. The wind butterfly¡¯s speed and strength had obviously decreased. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t need to look to know that Nero was here. ¡°You¡¯re finally here.¡± A vine tightly bound the wind butterfly and it fell heavily to the ground. At this time, Ali had no obstacles in front of him. It wanted to use its claws to interrupt the opponent¡¯s skills. The Blue tribe had lost a headwind butterfly, which was not a big deal. However, when they saw the lotus lizard, their eyes widened. ¡°It¡¯s Lutania! Attack! We can¡¯t let it come over!¡± ¡°It¡¯s over.¡± After Ali lost its obstacles, its speed was unimaginable. It clawed at the elite headwind butterfly¡¯s abdomen. As the liquid seeped out, it began to lose control of itself and pounced on Ali crazily. The wind killing array was broken. ¡°You guys are finished.¡± Fang Yuan chuckled. Just then, the elite upwind butterfly was caught by Nero, who was following behind the raccoon, and swallowed into his stomach. ¡°Burp¡­¡± Nero burped exaggeratedly and then said with a mocking tone, ¡°What shall my next dinner be?¡± Chapter 147 - Demons The four members of the Indigo Tribe were so scared that their purple faces turned pale. However, they still stared at Fang Yuan with hatred. ¡°Despicable humans. If you want to kill them, then kill them. There¡¯s no need to speak so much.¡± Actually, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t want to kill them. As long as he saved the girl, these people had no enmity with him. He was just a little curious. ¡°You keep saying that humans are humans. Aren¡¯t you humans?¡± Although they looked a little different from ordinary people, who knew if the foreigners in this world were different? ¡°Of course we¡¯re not humans.¡± Vera still had some wounds on her body, but she looked fine. She walked to Fang Yuan¡¯s side and remarked, ¡°In the words of humans, we¡¯re demons.¡± ¡°Demons?¡± Fang Yuan had only heard of demonized pet beasts, and this was the first time he knew of the existence of demons. Didn¡¯t that mean that there could also be gods in this world? ¡°Actually, we are similar to you, but our spiritual power is much stronger than yours.¡± Speaking of this, Fang Yuan remembered that Huang Ying had told him that killing the demon race could obtain a ¡°magic core¡± to increase his spiritual power. ¡°Then how should I deal with the person in front of me?¡± Fang Yuan decided to leave this difficult decision to Viya. If she gave the order to kill the other party, he would not have any psychological burden, and he could take the magic core as a matter of course. There was even a moment when he wondered if he should kill Viya as well. However, seeing that Viya was beautiful and had a good figure, he really felt that he could not do it. He thought that he did not lack that little spiritual power anyway. ¡°Although our green tribe and the blue tribe are mortal enemies, and they also want to disrespect me, I still want to forgive them,¡± Viya said. ¡°Can you please let them go?¡± Fang Yuan shrugged indifferently. The few demons were obviously a little surprised, but then they revealed a fierce expression and said, ¡°Viya, you actually colluded with the humans. If the King knows, he will definitely not let your green tribe go.¡± ¡°Then you want to die here, right?¡± Fang Yuan saw that they were still talking so much nonsense before they left, and he simply did not put Fang Yuan in his eyes. Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s threat, they immediately called back the wind butterfly and turned around to escape. Was it really appropriate to let them go like this? Fang Yuan heard their threatening tone and remembered that they seemed to want to kidnap Viya. He could not understand this kind of thought. The only thing he did not want to do was to kill someone without danger. He did not want his hands to be stained with blood. If the other party was going to threaten his life, then he definitely could not let them stay. Just as Fang Yuan¡¯s imagination was running wild, he heard some sizzling electric currents. Then, he raised his head and saw a 10-meter-long purple flying dragon! A man wearing a helmet stood on the head of the Flying Dragon. He was holding the signature spear of a demon warrior. The spears pierced through the small leader of the Azure tribe who was escaping and nailed him to the ground. As the Purple Dragon opened its mouth, a stream of plasma shot out from its mouth, surrounding the four of them. Then, Fang Yuan saw the demons gradually turn into skeletons. In the end, their bones were melted, leaving only a few crystals. ¡°That¡¯s the demon nucleus.¡± Fang Yuan saw the demon nucleus and immediately wanted to rush up to pick it up. Once again, the Purple Dragon made an offensive posture, but Vera blocked in front of Fang Yuan. Then the plasma in the purple dragon¡¯s mouth gradually faded away and disappeared. It landed on the ground, and the demon warrior jumped down from his head. He took off his helmet, and his blond hair made him look a bit handsome. ¡°Princess Vera, I¡¯m Sorry I¡¯m late.¡± He knelt down on one knee, expressing his apology for Vera being in danger and not arriving in time. Vera helped him up and responded, ¡°It¡¯s okay. This little brother saved my life. You wanted to kill him just now. It¡¯s too reckless.¡± ¡°Vera, you¡¯re Too Kind!¡± Uncle Terra ran from the forest, followed by a bouncing rolling ball beast, which looked quite cute in contrast. ¡°It was the human who saved Vera?¡± The blonde demon glanced at Fang Yuan, then looked at Ali and Nero behind him. ¡°Is that¡­ Lutania?¡± Fang Yuan had just heard the people of the Indigo Tribe call the Lotus Monitor Lizard Lutania. He asked curiously, ¡°Do you know it?¡± In fact, when he first saw Nero in the black market, Fang Yuan also felt that it was not simple. The demon warriors were not as friendly to humans as Vera. He did not want to answer human questions. Vera, on the other hand, walked to fang yuan and said, ¡°Lutania is a legend in our demon world. It is said that the king of pet beasts has both plant spirits and animal spirits. It is quite similar to your pet beast.¡± After Vera¡¯s reminder, Fang Yuan thought about it in his mind. It seemed that he rarely met this kind of pet beast that was a combination of plant and animal. The main pet beast system in this world were: animal system, plant system, and elemental system. The elemental system referred to Mountain Giants and flame demons, which were pet beasts which were gathered purely by elements. However, among the grass-type pet beasts, there were many pet beasts which had plant characteristics at the same time. Why couldn¡¯t they recognize that one? ¡°This man is too dangerous.¡± The demon warrior looked at Nero and raccoon carefully. After assessing their battle strength, he raised his spear and was ready to kill Fang Yuan. Fortunately, Vera blocked their way in time to prevent the situation from escalating further. ¡°Don¡¯t do that, Kalotte.¡± Uncle Terra saw that the situation was not right and also came up to them. He waved his hand to indicate that they didn¡¯t need to be nervous. ¡°We are the green tribe that pursues peace. We Can¡¯t take the initiative to cause trouble against the will of the Great Elder, right?¡± In a split second, Ali and Nero had made an attacking posture. They even felt fear. The source of this fear was not the warrior called Kalotte, but the Purple Dragon. Finally, the conflict was avoided. Kalotte took back his spear, put on his helmet, and quietly stood beside Vera, like a loyal bodyguard. ¡°Thank you, human warrior. To show my gratitude, I¡¯ll give you a gift.¡± Vera took out a book from somewhere, which made Kalotte and Terra¡¯s faces change slightly. But after looking at Vera¡¯s face, they didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°This book is a method for our green tribe to train pet beasts. Maybe you can use it.¡± This thing was really too precious to fang yuan. ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yuan took the book without any courtesy and actually woke up the system. [Ding.

It can increase the training speed of pets by 10 times. ¡°Devil World God Pet Training Manual¡±: Records the training methods of pets below low-grade star glory. It can increase the training speed of pets by 20 times. ¡®Devil World War Pet Training Manual (complete edition¡¯: Records the training methods of pets below high-grade diamond. It can increase the training speed of pets by 1000 times. Seeing the third attribute, Fang Yuan was stunned. What was the use of this grade strengthening, directly increasing the training speed by 1,000 times, wasn¡¯t that good? Without hesitation, he chose the complete training manual. After Vera handed the book to Fang Yuan, she felt that there were some subtle changes with the book. ¡°Let¡¯s go, Princess.¡± At this time, the Purple Dragon was lying on the ground, and Karlott was standing beside the dragon, calling out to her. Vera turned around and walked to the side of the dragon. She saw Karlott carrying her, jumping onto the back of the dragon, and then putting Vera Down. ¡°Goodbye!¡± Vera, who was riding on the dragon, kept waving at him during the take-off process, which made Karlott very unhappy. ¡°Beep¡­ A new message for you.¡± [Scientific name: Roland Sacred Dragon] [Bloodline: Parker] [Quality: Pinnacle Star brilliance] [Level: level 25] [Attributes: Thunder, Dragon, Divine Beast] [Location: Omnipotent] Fang Yuan was greatly shocked when he saw the pet¡¯s information. Then, he raised his head and saw the dragon flying past them once again. At that moment, he saw Karlott¡¯s expression. It had to be said that the peak of star glory plus level 25, this grade and level was already close to becoming a god. Through learning, one could know that the highest level of Star Glory Pet Beast was Level 25. Only by reaching king and legendary level could it continue to advance. Perhaps this exploration of the Devil World Forest should end here. Fang Yuan walked over and collected the magic core. He directly strengthened it a hundred times to the diamond magic core and then absorbed it. If he brought this thing back, Fang Yuan was afraid that he would be attacked by the iron puppet again. However, he did not know that this book was also be a treasure of the devil world. He did not know if it would trigger a mechanism. As long as he did not bring it back to school, it should not matter. ¡­ After returning to the dormitory district, Xinyu seemed to have gone out to train as well. There was only Fang Yuan on the huge mountain, which was very scary. Therefore, Fang Yuan summoned Xiaoyou, the Gale Hound, Ali, and other pet beasts, while he lay in the bathtub, he took a hot bath and read the training manual. There were not only training methods to increase the attributes of pet beasts, but also various skills of pet beasts. More importantly, this book was actually a trainer¡¯s equipment. Equipping it during the training could increase the speed of improvement. Fang Yuan set off the next day with the Shadow Wolf and the map. He wanted to test out the methods recorded in this book. The training contents of the Shadow Wolf included three parts: sprint training, stealth training, and howling training. The training methods were also simple and crude. For instance, sprint training was to let the Shadow Wolf fight with a Wind-type + Beast-type pet beast of the same level, and only use biting skills. Fang Yuan was currently fighting with the weakest beast-type pet in the secret realm, the wind-speed rabbit. Just by looking at its name, one could tell that this rabbit ran as fast as the wind, and it would not fight with the Shadow Wolf at all. When it saw the shadow wolf, it turned around and ran. Since the Shadow Wolf spent a lot of effort to catch up with a wind-speed rabbit, it returned to Fang Yuan breathlessly. ¡°Xiaoyou, is your stamina that bad?¡± Fang Yuan felt strange, but it was stuttering and growling, not knowing what to say. At this time, Fang Yuan remembered the cultivation manual in his hand. Could this be the so-called 1,000 times effect? He quickly checked the Shadow Wolf¡¯s skill. Its ¡°Sprint skill¡± had already been upgraded from level 1 to Level 2. ¡°So, other than the way to level up a skill, there is such a way to level up a skill.¡± Nevertheless, the shadow wolf seemed to be exhausted. It lay on the ground and refused to move no matter what. The so-called 1,000-fold increase corresponded to the 1,000-fold increase in stamina consumption. It just saved time. Fang Yuan could only understand it this way. In fact, the interaction between the pet beast and the trainer¡¯s equipment was more complicated. Just like that, Fang Yuan and Xiaoyou trained on the grassland for an entire day. When they were tired, they would rest for a while and continue training. The Shadow Wolf¡¯s charging skill had already reached a terrifying level 5, and it seemed that it could no longer be upgraded. This was because the upper limit of the skill level was related to the grade. The highest skill that the platinum shadow wolf possessed was Level 5. However, the speed of its sprint was almost as fast as the full-powered Ah Li. For an assassin pet beast like the Shadow Wolf, it was definitely a killer move. The next day, when Fang Yuan was about to find a second training ground, he suddenly thought of the arena. The arena not only supported the battle between trainers, it also supported the battle between different pet beasts of a trainer. Originally, this function was very useless and almost no one used it. However, to the opponent, it was double the training speed. If one were to say that he had all kinds of pet beasts, it was also convenient to train each other. Moreover, he could also go easy on each other in battle. For example, when Ali was evolving his wind chasing skill, he made the gale dog deliberately slow down, and Ali could actually learn a skill. This was probably a bug, because pet beasts needed to fight and win against specific pet beasts to upgrade their skills, and the condition of winning was something Fang Yuan could control. Just like that, in less than a week, Fang Yuan upgraded all the Pet Beasts¡¯ skills to the highest level. The second training was the attribute enhancement training. This was a more interesting training method. It required the pet to complete certain movements, practice repeatedly, and increase its attributes. This training was the same as when Fang Yuan received the spiritual power training. It was just that the pet that broke through the limit was not the trainer, Fang Yuan was an absolutely qualified instructor. Moreover, his spiritual power was strong. In a non-combat state, he could summon all his pet beasts and train them together. The effect of increasing his attributes would become worse and worse in the later stages, and he had to use them together with materials with the same attributes. It was only now that Fang Yuan noticed that among his pet beasts, the ¡°wind attribute¡± materials were the fastest to be consumed. Ali, the Gale Hound, and the Griffin Army were all the same. In the future, when he collected materials, he would also have to focus on the wind. Fang Yuan secretly remembered these things in his heart. As for the training that followed, it was even more interesting. The skills included army pet training and cooperative skill training. Army pet training was naturally important to Fang Yuan¡¯s Griffin Army. Among the pet beasts that Fang Yuan currently possessed, only the Shadow Wolf and the Gale Hound could actually form a ¡°Blazing pursuit¡±. The rest were temporarily useless. Indeed, the month of training was quite boring. Chapter 149 - Mid-Term Exams Fang Yuan was still depressed because the education of the pavilion of heavenly secrets was so lax. Other than going to school for a theory lesson every day, he spent most of his time cultivating on his own. What Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know was that Huang Ying¡¯s way of nurturing his students was like this. The other academies were very strict, especially the Tian group. ¡°One, two, one, two¡­¡± Ouyang Xinglan was holding a wooden knife in his hand. He chanted the slogan and walked around Xu Fei and Su Han. ¡°A trainer must have a strong mental strength. The prerequisite is to have a strong body, so we must not relax!¡± Xu Fei and Su Han were taking off their shirts and sweating non-stop. They were doing squats, and they were doing squats when the trainer¡¯s skills were activated. Their pets were fighting in the arena in front of them. On the Earth team¡¯s side, Sima Kaile was teaching his disciples how to prepare materials. ¡°For a pet beast to fully evolve, it usually needs specific materials. However, this kind of material doesn¡¯t usually have a finished product, so what should we do?¡±Sima Kaile held the teaching whip and walked back and forth like a normal teacher in the human world. Just then, a bald boy raised his hand, and his answer was approved by Sima Kaile. ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s using low-level materials to synthesize. Take the stone beetle as an example. Its attributes are gold and reptilian. As long as we gather enough platinum-grade gold-type materials and take enough carapace from its body, we can start refining materials.¡± On the mystic group¡¯s side, Linghu resolutely had an unpredictable expression. His students were engaged in an intense team battle. One of the girls with short hair and a headscarf caught his attention. This girl was an army trainer. Her main pet was a flower demon, while her secondary pet was fifty sunflowers. The biggest weakness of plant-type pets was that it was hard for them to move. However, in the hands of the girl, this did not seem to be a problem at all, because her flower demon could perform group teleportation skills The biggest advantage of plant-type pet beasts was that their firepower was particularly fierce. If Fang Yuan was present, he would definitely recall the scene of the battle with the Earth Overlord Flower back then. Whether it was close combat or long-range, plant-type pet beasts had a solid foundation, they had the advantage. On team Huang¡¯s side¡­ Fang Yuan was soaking in the swimming pool and reading a book. Ali and Pike were fighting, the Shadow Wolf and the Gale Hound were sleeping, and Xiao Jin was teasing little silver¡­ Xin Yu was lost in the forest¡­ Unknowingly, it was already the end of November, and Huang Ying had finally arrived in front of Fang Yuan. He looked at Fang Yuan and beamed. ¡°It looks like you¡¯ve improved a lot recently.¡± Fang Yuan responded faintly, ¡°How could you tell?¡± ¡°I have my own methods. Pet beasts are like humans; I can roughly judge their strength based on their powerful mental strength,¡± Huang Ying said, ¡°For example, the three-tailed spirit fox in front of me. I can tell that it has already reached the level of peak platinum level 20, right?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He knew that Huang Ying was not as incompetent as he looked. He just felt that there was something wrong with his way of teaching, so he completely let it be. Huang Ying did not waste any more time. He said to fang yuan, ¡°Tomorrow is the midterm exam. Are you ready?¡± ¡°Midterm exam? What exam?¡± ¡°Pet behavior, research on PET manipulation, and world history.¡± ¡°Oh, what an annoying exam.¡± Fang Yuan hated culture classes the most, for he had to memorize a lot of things in every exam. It seemed that he would have to study for it tonight. ¡°And¡­ actual combat.¡± Huang Ying said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I have high hopes for you.¡± ¡°But I haven¡¯t learned anything yet.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s words were from the bottom of his heart. Ever since the beginning of school, Huang Ying had only taught him two things. One was to teach him how to level up his pet, and the other was to take him to the demon world forest to gain experience, if not for Fang Yuan obtaining that cultivation manual, he would have learned nothing in these four months. ¡°Is that so? ¡°Huang Ying held his chin and pondered. It seemed that he had indeed not taught fang yuan anything. ¡°How about this, I¡¯ll teach you a move now.¡± ¡°What move?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were sparkling with curiosity. He believed that it must be a very powerful killing move. ¡°Take a deep breath, inhale¡­¡± Huff¡­ ¡°Exhale¡­¡± ¡°Take another deep breath¡­¡± Fang Yuan followed his rhythm and began to breathe, but he did not feel anything. ¡°Do you feel much more relaxed now?¡± Huang Ying smiled as he looked at Fang Yuan. ¡­ The next day, Fang Yuan rode Xiao Jin to the examination hall alone. On the imperial platform, he saw Xin Yu, whom he had not seen for a long time. He did not know where she had gone during this period of time. ¡°Hi, Senior Sister.¡± Fang Yuan saw Xin Yu. Perhaps it was because he had been interacting with pet beasts every day during this period of time, he felt especially excited when he saw humans. ¡°Fang Yuan, how have you been recently?¡± Xin Yu had not seen Fang Yuan for a long time as well, so she replied happily. ¡°Where have you been recently?¡± ¡°I went to the fallen star plains for the trial.¡± ¡°Oh, did you gain anything special?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a secret. Hehe, you can come and see my progress during the actual combat assessment later.¡± ¡°Then congratulations.¡± Seeing his senior¡¯s confident expression, fang yuan remembered something. Although Huang Ying was a manager-like instructor, hi training method would definitely bring them the greatest improvement. Perhaps this was the style of free teaching that Huang Ying was good at. In the examination room, Fang Yuan was writing rapidly¡­ ¡°Dear freshmen, it¡¯s a pleasure to meet all of you in the arena.¡± The long-bearded principal did not wear his professor¡¯s uniform. Instead, he changed into a shirt that revealed his muscles. When he saw the principal¡¯s muscles that were comparable to those of a bodybuilding coach, Fang Yuan could not help but think of what Huang Ying had said ¡­ Only a strong body could support spiritual power. As expected of a top-notch trainer, his combat strength was also not ordinary. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Demon Warrior Karlott. If he was not a pet, his strength should be on par with Nero¡¯s. ¡°At the beginning of the semester, you have already experienced the battle. Do you still remember the feeling of fist hitting flesh. Today, I will give all of you a chance to challenge each other again. There are a total of twelve students participating in this competition. Other than those who were eliminated in the first round, all of you will receive generous points as rewards. Are you ready?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± ¡°Then, let¡¯s start drawing lots.¡± As the exams for each grade group were held separately, there were only the freshmen here. A few counselors stood in the audience seats of the arena. This was also an important part for them to check the students¡¯ actual combat ability and fill in the gaps. The results of the drawing of lots were soon out. The first match was Fang Yuan, and his opponent was Xu Fei, whom he had fought during the entrance exam. ¡°I finally have a chance to teach you a lesson.¡± Xu Fei walked confidently onto the arena. The other party stretched out his fist and said, ¡°This time, I will definitely beat you up!¡± Chapter 150 - Overwhelming Strength Fang Yuan saw that Xu Fei was wearing a brand new pair of red gloves, which should be the equipment of his heart¡¯s trainer. ¡°Come out, Inferno Dragon! Dark Gold Python!¡± Such a familiar strategy. Xu Fei did not put on any pretense and directly released his two strongest pet beasts. It seemed that he did not need to change his moves. After summoning Ali, Fang Yuan stood straight on the spot. ¡°Hmm? Where¡¯s that big lizard? I remember that the last time I saw it, it seemed to have evolved into a diamond.¡± ¡°To deal with you, one of it is enough.¡± ¡°You!¡± When Xu Fei heard this, he could not help but feel a wave of anger rise in his heart. He looked down on people so much that he finished the battle quickly. Letting Fang Yuan not get a single point was the best punishment for him. Credits were a good thing. Xu Fei had already exchanged for equipment and materials through credits this year. The Inferno Dragon was just one step away from stepping into the diamond field. Xu Fei and his two pet beasts were flashing with red light. This was the state of ¡°berserk skill¡±. ¡°Previously, I was defeated because I did not have enough spiritual power. Now, don¡¯t expect that to happen again.¡± After Xu Fei released his berserk skill, he didn¡¯t cover his head like before. On the contrary, his eyes were a little red, but he looked very clear-headed. From this, it could be seen that Xu Fei wasn¡¯t bragging. His strength had indeed increased a lot. On Fang Yuan¡¯s side, Ali had already reached the peak platinum level, and his level had also risen to the highest platinum level, level 20. Therefore¡­ When the fireballs mixed with metal fragments flew over, Ali only relied on dodging left and right to make its attacks miss. It was still in its normal form. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Xu Fei was also in the state of Berserk, and his reaction was very sensitive. He could see the fire dragon and the Dark Gold Python¡¯s movements clearly, but he could not see Ali¡¯s movements clearly. According to Fang Yuan¡¯s understanding, the three-tailed spirit Fox needed three times the materials of other pet beasts for its evolution, so its ability was naturally much higher than pet beasts of the same level. At that time, Ali, who was only a platinum intermediate level, was able to defeat the fire dragon with one hand, but he was disadvantaged due to his weak physical defense. The last time they fought with the blue tribe, their wind arrows were more than three times faster than this throwing knife. Ali could easily dodge them, not to mention the dark gold python, whose coverage and speed were far lower than theirs. ¡°Ali, let¡¯s finish them off in one go,¡± Fang Yuan said to Ali. Ali nodded. During the gap period after the blade skill ended, it cast a strong wind which scratched the fire dragon, preventing it from using fire attacks again. Then, it jumped to the other side of the arena and quickly turned into the wind elf state. Before this, Ali¡¯s wind blades were only about two meters wide. After Fang Yuan¡¯s ¡°Hell Style¡± training, both the width and length of these wind blades had increased by five times. Just then, three wind blades shot out from his tail, cutting open the throat, body, and tail of the blazing fire dragon that was chasing him. The blazing fire dragon fell to the ground with an incredulous look on his face. Ali did not stay idle. The Dark Gold Python pounced on him again, trying to attack him with its fangs. In the end, it only managed to bite a shadow. Ali¡¯s wind chasing skill in his normal form had reached level 5, and his wind chasing skill had evolved to gale. Gale, on the other hand, not only had the same speed as wind chasing, which had a very high bonus, but it also temporarily made the pet invisible. This was because a stealth-breaking attack would cause double the damage. At this moment, Ali was standing behind the Dark Gold Python, which was at a loss. The wind blade was ready to be used. At this moment, Xu Fei shouted, ¡°I admit defeat.¡± His fire dragon had lost its ability to fight, and the Dark Gold Python¡¯s defensive power would probably be cut into four pieces by Ali¡¯s wind blade. If that happened, there would be no turning back. Although the arena did not advocate killing the opponent¡¯s pet beast, it was blind in battle. If it really killed someone¡¯s pet beast, it would only be a verbal warning, just like what Xu Fei had done at that time. As Xu Fei admitted defeat, the screen above the arena displayed the words ¡°The winner is Fang Yuan.¡± Following that, the blue light around the arena also disappeared. This blue light was set up to prevent the power of the pet from leaking out and causing damage to the audience. Xu Fei put the fire dragon and Dark Gold Python back into his space. He should have a special healing method as well; he did not show much worry on his face. Instead, he smiled and walked towards Fang Yuan. He reached out his hand to shake Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and said, ¡°You¡¯re really strong. I was still unwilling to lose to you last time, but now I really see the difference.¡± Fang Yuan thought for a while. Although he did hate Xu Fei before, it seemed that his personality had changed a lot. If it was the previous Xu Fei, he probably wouldn¡¯t have said the word ¡°Surrender¡± even if his pet died in battle. So in the end, he still reached out his hand. This also meant that their previous grudges had vanished into thin air. ¡°Do you know? Actually, what I used just now was not a berserk skill.¡± Xu Fei placed his hands behind his head, in an extremely relaxed manner, he said calmly, ¡°Actually, it was an offensive skill that teacher Xinglan taught me. It increases the damage of the pet skill by 100%. I know that your Ali has a special resistance to fire elements, but it definitely can¡¯t reach the level of immunity¡­¡± ¡°So, I used the offensive skill. I believe that if it would take the fire explosion damage head-on, it would definitely be blown away.¡± ¡°But you¡¯re really amazing. In just four months, you¡¯ve actually raised its ability to this level¡­¡± ¡°You must do you best in the remaining matches.¡± Right then, Xu Fei finished his speech in a row, which made Fang Yuan¡¯s opinion of him change a lot. It seemed that Ouyang Xinglan was quite good at teaching students. Previously, when he said he could restrain Xu Fei, he really did it In fact, Ouyang Xinglan had also noticed Fang Yuan¡¯s change. She used her arm to push Huang Ying¡¯s body and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so good at training. I thought my student would win for sure.¡± ¡°Of course.¡± Huang Ying smiled on the surface, but he was also puzzled in his heart. According to his teaching method, Fang Yuan should have found the opponent¡¯s weakness to attack and then achieve the goal of defeating the strong with the weak, however, Fang Yuan actually showed an overwhelming advantage, which made him very puzzled, especially Ali¡¯s natural advancement. The same level advancement of a pet beast was from low-grade to middle-grade as well as from middle-grade to high-grade. In addition to upgrading pills, it actually depended on actual combat experience. How did Fang Yuan manage to rise from platinum middle-grade to platinum peak? Perhaps only he himself knew the answer. Chapter 151 - Facing the Flower Demon Army The following matches were for the other participants. The students of the secret pavilion were indeed extraordinary. However, the most eye-catching one was undoubtedly Su Han from the Sky Group. Fang Yuan had noticed before that he liked to carry a sword on his back, looking like a teenager cosplaying. Only now did Fang Yuan realize that it was not a sword, but his pet beast. Nevertheless, it could usually disguise itself as a sword and lie on Su Han¡¯s body to rest. This kind of pet beast that lived in the real world for a long time usually had a higher tacit understanding with its owner. Only Su Han would do that. Fang Yuan had to keep bringing his huge pet beasts, such as Nero. Wherever he went, it would be inconvenient. Su Han¡¯s pet beast was actually a mantis, and it had already advanced to low-grade diamond. Its physical attack was directly equivalent to the wind blade damage of Ali. He had also instantly killed a player from the Earth Group, and it was said that he was the second-ranked student in the Earth Group. This action caused Sima Kaile to cover his eyes in pain. He had actually lost to his old enemy, and it was really a waste of his efforts to help him raise his pet to low-grade diamond. In the end, he was not as strong as the student pet of the sky group, and was even instantly killed. The short-haired girl from the Xuan Group was even more exaggerated. She was an army trainer, and his opponent was a dual pet trainer student from the Earth Group. His lion and tiger pet were almost shot into sieves, and he could not touch the other party at all. Every time he approached her, he would be bewitched by her. What was worse was their ability to appear and disappear mysteriously. When Ouyang Xinglan saw this scene, he couldn¡¯t help but joke with Sima, ¡°The Earth division is really an old background.¡± Linghu Yiran also laughed resolutely, ¡°Actually, the Earth division students are very outstanding.¡± ¡°Damn it, don¡¯t be too arrogant,¡±Sima Ka le said, ¡°Our Earth Division¡¯s number one, Zheng Ze, has also advanced to the next round. In a while, let¡¯s see how he will deal with Your Genius Youth.¡± Only Huang Ying did not say a word. He was thinking about his students. Because of his mistake, the third and fourth year students of the yellow team were sent to the hermit wasteland near the entrance of the Devil World. They even became the Devil World¡¯s minions. This made him very sad. He did not know whether the training method that senior Xia Hou had left behind was correct. It was true that the members of the yellow team were not good at fighting head-on, but they had the unpredictable training skills and were good at finding flaws according to local conditions. In spite of that, when facing an opponent with absolute strength, this ability could not be used at all. He was originally wavering in this belief. Therefore, he might as well act like the Heaven and Earth team and personally guide them to grow, instead of letting them be. All of this only came to him when he saw Fang Yuan. The members of the yellow group could actually be good at head-on combat. It was just that their luck was not good and they did not find a place to train in this aspect. In the Devil World Forest, most of the pet beasts were mainly used for metal shell defense and physical attacks. Huang Ying chose that place to train fang yuan because he saw that Fang Yuan¡¯s strongest pet beasts were grass-type pet beasts. These metal pet beasts were actually its nemesis. It was his hope that Fang Yuan would understand how to use drag to fight these cumbersome creatures in battles. However, what Huang Ying didn¡¯t know was that the Demon World Forest had already been occupied by the people of the pale blue tribe. Not only were those demonized pet beasts not cumbersome, but they also moved as fast as the tyrant dragon. The majority of the pet beasts also had the ability to slow down and control their speed. If he had known that the Demon World Forest was so dangerous, he definitely would not have let Fang Yuan Go, and Fang Yuan would not be where he was today. Soon, the second battle began. This time, Fang Yuan¡¯s opponent was a girl who looked very sunny. She had short hair that had been meticulously groomed, and she was also wearing a headscarf. She stood on the other side of the arena and waved at Fang Yuan. ¡°Senior Fang Yuan, please advise me.¡± ¡°Senior?¡± Fang Yuan was a little speechless. He was also a freshman. Did He look that old? As the Blue Light Array Rose, the match officially began. This girl was a freshman in the Mystic Group. Her name was Lin Wei. When Fang Yuan was fighting against a sophomore in the Earth group, she was there and saw the lotus lizard through the screen. Since she was also a pet trainer in the plant department, she showed great interest in the blooming lotus flower. In addition to Fang Yuan¡¯s attitude of crushing a sophomore, she mistakenly thought that Fang Yuan was a sophomore too. Although she knew that it was the mid-term exam of the first year, she still unknowingly called Fang Yuan senior. Her flower demon army arrived on time and landed on the field, densely packed. ¡°Please don¡¯t show any mercy,¡± Lin Wei shouted. Then, she and the flower demon Army¡¯s bodies began to glow with a pale pink light. Apparently, they had also used the trainer skill. Fang Yuan had two choices when fighting against the army. One was to use the super damage skill of the lotus giant lizard, just like when he fought against the Army of the grass-tailed monkeys. Lin Wei had seen that move before. As long as he used the flower demons¡¯ ability to teleport and the Sun Flower¡¯s resistance to grass-type skills, he could deal with this move. Nonetheless, Fang Yuan had another set of tactics. ¡°Come out, Griffin Army!¡± The summoning speed was much slower than Lin Wei¡¯s, but he was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, she quietly waited for fang yuan to finish summoning the Griffin Army. The appearance of a hundred steel griffins on the field was undoubtedly a sight to behold. Even Linghu Yiran, who was so calm, was a little surprised. ¡°Fang Yuan can actually control the hundred pets army. He¡¯s really a genius,¡±he gave a simple evaluation and then said to Huang Ying, ¡°Have you taught him how to use the army skill?¡± ¡°How could I know that thing¡­¡± Huang Ying replied. He had seen the Griffin Army before, so he was not very surprised. But he also understood that there was a huge difference between Fang Yuan¡¯s army and a real army pet. This was not something that could be made up for with quantity. ¡°Senior, you¡¯re really amazing. You can actually control a hundred pets,¡± Lin Wei responded with a smile. ¡°But why don¡¯t you use the trainer skill? Don¡¯t you know how to use it?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need,¡± Fang Yuan said indifferently. ¡°Then, shall we start the competition?¡± In fact, Lin Wei had been holding back all this time because if she used all her firepower, the pet beasts below diamond intermediate rank would be killed. There would probably be no bones left. But now, what she had to do was to shoot freely! Because the Griffins were everywhere, with the flower goblin as the center, the sunflowers spread out and surrounded the city in the sky, releasing countless rays of light. Accumulating the power of the light and shooting it out would produce a laser-like killing effect, which was much more painful than piercing directly. The steel skin of the steel griffins could withstand most physical damage, including the laser. Undoubtedly, the firepower was too fierce. Fang Yuan looked at the dense light and thought to himself. ¡°But I know an obvious weakness.¡± Chapter 152 - Ultimate Storm of Destruction The Flower Demon Army that Fang Yuan saw was actually a static target. But their firepower was indeed very powerful, for eight Griffins were injured in their first round of shooting and fell onto the stage. According to the rules of the competition, Griffins that had lost their combat ability had to leave the stage to avoid receiving more damage. The Flower Demon Army¡¯s firepower was indeed very fierce, but the gap was also very long. After one round of shooting, they could not immediately continue the second round of shooting. This was also one of the shortcomings fang yuan saw. ¡°It would be great if you could disperse the flower demon Army¡¯s firepower,¡± Fang Yuan said to Lin Wei on the other end of the ring. ¡°In this attack interval, you can only be in a defensive position, right?¡± Lin Wei was startled for a moment, and then she laughed. ¡°Senior, you are indeed powerful, so can you break the flower demon Army¡¯s defensive barrier?¡± After the sunflowers attacked, they needed to accumulate energy before they could launch the next wave of attacks. During this period, the Flower Demon used her skills, enveloping all the sunflowers in the world of the petals. The petals looked like they were dancing wildly, thus preventing any melee fighters from getting close. Fang Yuan had just watched Lin Wei¡¯s battle. If she got close to the petals, the petals would explode and release pollen, causing the attacking pet beasts to cry and sneeze. Therefore, it could be said that she was the nemesis of melee fighters. At the same time, she also had another ability, which was teleportation. If the other party was also a long-range attacking pet beast, the flower demon would cast an area teleportation spell before the other party moved, teleporting them to a safe location. This tactic looked very simple, but it could often work wonders. Moreover, the solar flower could only accumulate power for less than a minute. If it could not break through the defense within this minute, everything would be empty talk. ¡°Then I¡¯ll let you see the abilities of the Griffin Army.¡± Fang Yuan had already thought of a way to break through the defense. Otherwise, he would not have pointed out the weakness of the enemy¡¯s tactics. The griffin hovering in the air surrounded the flower demon army in the middle and used the ¡°Whirlwind¡± skill. This skill was the one that Fang Yuan used the most when he was hunting mandora grass. Just then, a miniature tornado surrounded the Army of Flower Demons and gradually moved toward them. The wind had a miraculous effect on the petals, and soon, the petals around them were blown away. Of course, Lin Wei knew that the flower demons were afraid of the wind, but she still had another defensive skill. ¡°Flower Demons, use spatial teleportation!¡± The flower demons received their master¡¯s order, and all the sunflower flowers sank to the ground as if the arena was made of water. They just dove into the water. Then, the flower goblins also dived into the ground. Before the tornado converged into a giant tornado, they all disappeared. More than ten seconds later, they all floated up from the ring on Fang Yuan¡¯s side. Lin Wei said proudly, ¡°Senior, if you don¡¯t summon that giant Lotus Lizard, you¡¯ll definitely lose.¡± She did have the right to be proud because there were only a few seconds left before the sunflower recharged. This round of shooting could kill another ten or so griffins from Fang Yuan, and their combat power would be even weaker. How could Fang Yuan not know of her move? Xiaojin and Xiaoyin, who hadn¡¯t made a move just now, were actually preparing a super large-scale ¡°Storm of destruction.¡±. The power of the ¡®Storm of Destruction¡¯ was actually determined by the Steel Gryphon¡¯s own spiritual power and its control over the wind. Moreover, it was as simple as everyone thought it was. ¡®Storm of Destruction¡¯ was a gold-grade fusion skill, and the power it unleashed was usually platinum-grade because Xiaojin and Xiaoyin had already entered platinum-grade. Now that Xiaojin and Xiaoyin had already stepped into the peak platinum level, they were only a few materials away from entering the diamond level. Therefore, their mastery of ¡°Storm of destruction¡± had elevated substantially. In the cultivation manual, there was a mention of this fusion skill: Level 1: A tornado carries lightning damage, which has a miraculous effect on buildings; Level 2: Expand the tornado¡¯s range Level 3: Reduce the time for skills to be released As for Xiaojin and Xiaoyin, their mastery of destructive storm had already reached the final level: Level 4: When using destructive storm, they can transform other ordinary tornadoes into destructive tornadoes. What they were currently using was the ultimate version of destructive storm. Since the Griffin Legion had used Whirlwind just now to protect them from using their fusion skill, the color of the sky and earth in the arena changed instantly. The hard ground seemed to have been blown loose, making cracking sounds. ¡°Ugh?¡± Ouyang Xinglan was shocked when he spotted this scene. ¡°The stone slabs in the arena were taken from the granite beasts. How could they be blown away by the wind?¡± He was not good at using wind type pet beasts, which explained why he did not know that the destructive storm had a damage bonus on buildings. As for Linghu Yiran, he opened his eyes for the first time. ¡°Skill upgrade?¡± he muttered to himself. ¡°How did this kid know how to upgrade the fusion skill?¡± This was the signature of their mystic group, and it was also a core secret. Only they knew that the fusion skill was actually the same as a normal skill. It could be upgraded through a special method. Under the gazes of everyone present, before the sunflower could finish accumulating its power, a lightning storm that covered the entire arena descended! The flower devil seemed to have a bad premonition as well, but her petals were so weak in front of the storm. When dozens of tornadoes gathered together, they formed another much more powerful tornado, thereby wreaking havoc in the arena. Not to mention Fang Yuan who was standing below the stage, even the teachers and students in the audience could feel the cold wind. Needless to say, the sunflower was uprooted and the flower demon was blown into the air. If she had not used her body to protect the sunflower, they would have been struck to death by lightning. ¡°Isn¡¯t this too much?¡± This was actually Fang Yuan¡¯s first time using this level of destructive storm in actual combat. Its name had already been changed to ¡°Destructive Storm Max.¡±. ¡°Xiaojin, is there any way to stop it?¡± Seeing the flower goblin and the sunflower being blown away in the air and losing their fighting strength, he wanted to stop everything. In spite of that, Xiaojin gave him an innocent look. The only thing it could do now was to protect itself from being blown away¡­ This ultimate destructive storm was not only destructive, but also caused damage to everyone regardless of their powers. Only the strong who could control the wind could survive. Fang Yuan looked at Lin Wei apologetically. She was holding back her tears as she watched the sky being blown away while holding onto the sunflower. Chapter 153 - Xuanzu Is Angry ¡°Enough.¡± Just when Fang Yuan did not know when this skill would end, Linghu resolutely summoned a white dragon. It hovered above the arena for a moment as the storm of destruction slowly subsided. The sunflowers fell to the ground one by one. The flower demon¡¯s body was huge, and it desperately tried to catch the other sunflowers, regardless of whether they hit its body or not. ¡°Fang Yuan, where did you learn this skill?¡± Linghu Yiran used a rarely seen stern tone. He stretched out his hand, wanting to grab Fang Yuan¡¯s wrist and question him. ¡°Old Fox, what are you doing?¡± Ouyang Xinglan rushed over after him. He did not know why Linghu Yiran resolutely was so angry. ¡°Isn¡¯t it normal for students to fight and kill each other?¡± Sima, who was slowly walking over, mocked, ¡°No, fighting and killing is abnormal. Only your academy would do that.¡± ¡°Teacher, I-I didn¡¯t do it on purpose.¡± Fang Yuan felt wronged, but he didn¡¯t want to kill Lin Wei¡¯s pet. This was also the first time he had used the destructive storm after it had reached the top level. He didn¡¯t expect it to be so powerful. ¡°Mr. Linghu, it¡¯s okay if you feel sorry for your disciple, but you can¡¯t hurt my disciple.¡± It was the first time Huang Ying saw his expression. He thought he was going to do something. Although Fang Yuan was very strong and could surpass them in the future, he was definitely no match for them now. ¡°Sob, sob, sob, I¡¯m sorry¡­¡± Lin Wei had already run up to the ring, many of her sunflowers had died, from the initial fifty to less than twenty. Moreover, their injuries looked so serious that all of them would be wiped out. After a short stalemate, Lin Wei¡¯s crying interrupted their argument. ¡°White Dragon, use the spirit healing spell to heal them.¡±Linghu Yiran gave his pet an order resolutely. Then, he saw spots of white light falling from the sky, and a holy feeling appeared on the arena. The sunflowers and flower demons had all been healed, but the sunflowers that had been struck by lightning and were already dead could never be saved. He said to Ouyang Xinglan and Huang Ying who were blocking fang yuan, ¡°Fang Yuan just used a gold-tier fusion skill, destructive storm. As long as you have both the bird and wind attributes, you can use it. It¡¯s a common fusion skill.¡± In fact, both Ouyang Xinglan and Huang Ying knew this, for they had fought with trainers who had fusion skills before, but what did it have to do with Fang Yuan? ¡°You guys don¡¯t know¡­¡± Linghu Yiran sighed. ¡°Fusion skills have levels. It¡¯s the same as ordinary skills. It can increase its level through actual combat and improving its own ability.¡± ¡°Yeah, so what?¡± Ouyang Xinglan was an impatient person, but he wasn¡¯t in the mood to play games with him. ¡°Under normal circumstances, a gold grade fusion skill only has three levels, and he¡¯s undoubtedly using the fourth level!¡± When he said this, his emotions were clearly a little agitated. The students didn¡¯t know what had happened, but when they heard his words, the eyes of the other three instructors widened. ¡°Only demons¡­ know how to raise their skills to the ultimate level.¡± When these words were said, everyone present shut up. Because humans were now a civilized society, the highest skill that pet beasts learned was also to defeat the other party Only those in the natural world who would not rest until death would raise their ¡°Defeat¡± to the level of ¡°Destruction¡±, so many methods to raise their skills to the ultimate level were destroyed by the pioneers. How Fang Yuan mastered this skill was what everyone was most concerned about now. They all looked at Fang Yuan at the same time. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know that such a thing would happen, and he just followed the method in the cultivation manual to raise the level of skills. He didn¡¯t expect that there was such an unspoken rule. ¡°Huang Ying, your students will join the demon race and become our enemies. Why is that so?¡± ¡°Hey, don¡¯t be rash.¡± Ouyang Xinglan looked at the scene that was gradually losing control. Only he and the principal could control the situation now. No one else could stop the battle between the two teachers. ¡°What can I do?¡± Huang Ying noticed that Linghu Yiran was blaming himself for the injury of his student¡¯s pet beast, and he felt a nameless anger in his heart. Just then, the principal walked over at this time. He had already understood the ins and outs of the matter. ¡°It¡¯s actually a good thing for a student to be able to accomplish so much, but why did you make it so tense?¡± Upon seeing the principal, they had no choice but to bow and bow. In a resolute manner, Linghu Yiran said, ¡°I was impulsive. But seeing my disciple get injured in the arena competition, and it was by despicable means, I feel bad.¡± ¡°Despicable? Didn¡¯t Fang Yuan defeat Lin Wei fair?¡± The principal said with a laugh, ¡°Don¡¯t forget our mission. Although we don¡¯t encourage killing in the school, nature is cruel to begin with. Death is also a very normal thing.¡± ¡°Yes¡­¡± Linghu Yiran resolutely wanted to argue, but realized he couldn¡¯t say anything. ¡°It¡¯s just that the requirements for a Legion Pet Beast are too high. It needs to be a pet beast born on the same day with similar attributes and spiritual power in order to become a Legion Pet Beast. With such huge losses, I¡¯m afraid Lin Wei will never be able to graduate from the Mystic Group.¡± He sighed while looking at Lin Wei. So that was how it was. When Fang Yuan heard this, he realized why these griffins could not consume his spiritual power while Xiaojin and Xiaoyin needed him to continuously provide spiritual power. It turned out that the Legion Pet Beasts could be controlled as a whole, it was just that the requirements were particularly harsh. However, he remembered the wooden-tailed monkey and that man. Were his monkeys born on the same day? No matter how he looked at it, it seemed quite strange. The demons should have their own combat system, and humans could learn it. This was something that Fang Yuan realized during this dispute. The next time he saw Vera and the others, he could ask them properly. Fang Yuan, who had been silent all this time, silently walked up to the ring and came to Lin Wei¡¯s side. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯s just that there¡¯s too much difference between senior and me.¡± Lin Wei forced a smile. She was at a loss. If she summoned the Sunflower Legion back to the space, there would be no way to deal with the sunflower corpses on the ground. ¡°Principal¡­ ?¡± Unknowingly, the principal had already arrived in front of them with an unfathomable look. ¡°Life and death are just natural cycles. Fang Yuan, are you willing to help Lin Wei save these poor little guys?¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan and Lin Wei stared at each other, and then Lin Wei almost asked, ¡°Principal, do you think Fang Yuan can save them?¡± Without answering directly, the principal just smiled and nodded. Chapter 154 - Special Training ¡°Can I revive them?¡± Fang Yuan thought the principal was joking. The strongest healing pet he had was only the spirit healing queen bee. It could recover his spiritual power and physical strength, but to revive the corpses on the ground. At least he had never heard of this ability. ¡°Yes.¡± Right then, he principal walked to Fang Yuan¡¯s side and held his hand. He raised his hand and said, ¡°Do you know what the trainer¡¯s Mark Means?¡± ¡°Reincarnation?¡± Fang Yuan remembered the name of his mark. To him, it was just a joke that continuously restored his and his pet¡¯s spiritual power. There was no special ability. ¡°Yes, it¡¯s reincarnation.¡± The principal smiled. ¡°This is a special ability. It is not like other abilities that create and strengthen, but to make up for what has been lost.¡± According to the principal, his ability was indeed like that, but what did it have to do with saving Lin Wei¡¯s pet? ¡°Miss Lin Wei, do you believe me?¡± the principal suddenly asked Lin Wei. She was at a loss at first, but then she nodded and replied, ¡°Of course I do. The teacher said that you are the strongest trainer in our school.¡± ¡°Good to know that.¡± After saying that, he put Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and Lin Wei¡¯s hand together. Fang Yuan and Lin Wei couldn¡¯t help but feel uncomfortable. They wanted to pull their hands away, but they didn¡¯t expect the principal to be so strong that they couldn¡¯t do it. ¡°Hold each other¡¯s hands,¡± the principal said. This made them feel very embarrassed as they felt like they were being forced to get married. However, since they had chosen to trust the principal, they could only do as he suggested. ¡°Very good.¡± The principal narrowed his eyes and grinned. ¡°Then, Fang Yuan, start using your trainer skill.¡± ¡°Reincarnation cycle:¡± Fang Yuan silently activated his skill, and a faint green light covered the surface of his body. It was the same for the Griffin Legion. They were currently surrounding the Flower Demon Legion, and they had not received Fang Yuan¡¯s command to reverse the summoning, so they could not return to the pet beast space, This scene looked too magical. The White Oriental Dragon circling in the air, the white dots of light on the field, and now the Griffin Army with green light. But this was not the most magical thing. At this moment, Lin Wei seemed to have become Fang Yuan¡¯s pet, covered by the green light. ¡°This is?¡±Lin Wei looked at her hand in disbelief, feeling the changes in her body. ¡°Haha, Miss Lin Wei, do you know what to do now?¡± The principal¡¯s voice reached Lin Wei¡¯s ears. She could already feel a strange power coming from the Flower Goblin. These sunflowers were actually grown from the seeds of the flower goblin. The power coming from afar made Lin Wei feel the connection between them. Gradually, the Sun Flower¡¯s body turned into light and eventually turned into seeds. The flower monster quickly stuffed these seeds into its own flower, as if they were treasures. ¡°Okay, you can let go now.¡± Hearing the principal say this, Fang Yuan quickly pulled his hand away. Lin Wei was the same. As a woman, she was even more embarrassed and her face turned red. ¡°Thank you.¡± After being embarrassed for a while, Lin Wei said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry for what I did to you first, but it doesn¡¯t matter.¡± Fang Yuan summoned the Griffin Army back to the pet space, and Lin Wei did the same thing. The big screen above the ring showed the winner, Fang Yuan. Although there weren¡¯t many audience members, they all clapped with their best strength, cheering for this wonderful performance. ¡°Are you satisfied with this result?¡± The principal walked past Linghu Yiran and noticed that his expression had returned to its original state. The principal also knew that he should be relieved. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s my student¡¯s incompetence.¡±Linghu Yiran clasped his hands in front of his chest and bowed slightly, apologizing to the principal. ¡°That youth has the power to destroy and to give new students the power¡­¡± The principal didn¡¯t continue to dwell on this issue. Instead, he said to the four teachers, ¡°All of you should put aside your prejudices and return to the past when you were all on your own.¡± ¡­ Seeing that Ouyang Xinglan had returned, Xu Fei walked up to him and said, ¡°Teacher, why didn¡¯t you come and protect me when I was beaten up by Fang Yuan? Why did you go and protect Fang Yuan?¡± He was indeed quite jealous. He was clearly the student of the Tian Group. Moreover, when he was beaten up by Fang Yuan, Ouyang Xinglan did not even know where he was. Ouyang Xinglan pretended to look at the sky and said with an unknowing look, ¡°The weather today is not bad, Hahaha.¡± Immediately, he changed into a serious expression and asked the expressionless disciple beside him, ¡°Su Han, are you confident that you can fight Fang Yuan in the next match?¡± He was very satisfied with this disciple and had absolute confidence. He believed that even fang yuan, who had just displayed that kind of strength, would not be a match for Su Han. Su Han said coldly, ¡°I don¡¯t know. I¡¯ve never fought before.¡± ¡°You should at least give yourself some confidence.¡± Xu Fei was very dissatisfied with Su Han¡¯s indifferent attitude. This was precisely the time to cheer for the Tian Group. This kid actually did not know the atmosphere. What Su Han said was actually his true thoughts. He had always been straightforward. ¡°Fang Yuan is very strong,¡± Su Han added. ¡°Hahaha, it¡¯s rare to hear you admit that someone else is strong. No matter what, you have a fight with him. I hope you can get something precious from it.¡± ¡­ It was Su Han¡¯s turn for the second round of the competition. His opponent was said to be the number one student in the Earth Group. His name was Zheng Ze. His pet was a low-grade diamond winged thunder snake. It was a dual-attribute reptile pet. Its potential was very strong. After leveling up to low-grade diamond, it was on par with a mid-grade diamond single-attribute pet. Zheng Ze looked at the man in front of him with confidence. When he saw that he was standing in the ring personally, he could not help but ask curiously, ¡°Did you forget to leave the ring after seeing my pet?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s start the match,¡± Su Han said calmly. His person was just like his name, cold and without any warmth. When he said this, a blue wall of light rose up on the ring. ¡°Why is the trainer on the stage?¡± The students whispered to each other. This was a very dangerous thing. Humans were not as tough as pet beasts. ¡°He actually looks down on me.¡± Zheng Ze, who was standing below the stage, had blue veins bulging out. He was also a genius youth, so he naturally would not be convinced by Su Han. ¡°Then don¡¯t blame me for being rude. Attack, Thunder chain!¡± However, before he could fully unleash his pet¡¯s attack, the sword on Su Han¡¯s back fell to the ground and transformed into a mantis that was as tall as Su Han. Almost no one saw what happened. Instantly, the steel winged thunder snake was cut into several pieces¡­ That was wicked! Chapter 155 - Fight Against Su Han Du Ze¡¯s expression changed from shock to anger when he noticed that his favorite pet was killed. ¡°How dare you kill my Little Thunder?!¡± ¡°Was that really your pet?¡± Su Han looked at Du Ze coldly. He didn¡¯t answer his question but asked him if he wanted to continue fighting. ¡°No, I¡¯m not fighting anymore.¡± Du Ze¡¯s strongest pet beast had been killed; how could he still have the mood to continue fighting? The snake¡¯s body that was cut into pieces on the ground twisted for a while. It was not completely dead. As long as it could be brought back to the pet beast space, it could be restored to its initial appearance. However, the growth of such a pet beast would be stunted in the future. ¡°The winner is Su Han!¡± What kind of monsters were these. Sima Kaile¡¯s face was pale. His students were completely beaten up by the students of the other three groups, which made his face very ugly. After what had happened just now, the four instructors did not stand together. Instead, they returned to their respective classes to watch the battle. Ouyang Xinglan watched all of this calmly as he knew how strong Su Han was. That was the strength of a true descendant of an aristocratic family. As expected, the final match fell to Fang Yuan and Su Han. The other groups did not rush to take a stand because they had been eliminated. They also wanted to watch such a top-notch battle. At this time, the students from the second group also entered the arena. After the match between Su Han and Fang Yuan, it was the second group¡¯s match. ¡°Eh, the first group¡¯s match hasn¡¯t ended yet.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s see how strong the kids are.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t mention it, the two juniors of our Sky Group are very strong.¡± ¡°Can they beat our Earth Group?¡± ¡°Well¡­¡± They were chatting and laughing. The ones who stood on the arena and fought to the end were the Sky Group and the Yellow Group. The Earth Group and the Xuan Group were eliminated, leaving behind the yellow group, which was called the weakest school in history. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± The Earth team members were surprised to see this scene. Their junior, Du Ze, was a fierce character who had a diamond low-grade dual-element pet in his first year. Even his sophomore seniors might not be able to defeat him, he actually didn¡¯t even enter the finals. In spite of that, there was one person in the Earth Group who was not surprised by the scene in front of him at all. He even felt that it was natural. This person was none other than Zhu Xu. This was because he had personally witnessed Fang Yuan¡¯s pet being upgraded and then instantly killing his sacred armor beast. He knew very well that Fang Yuan¡¯s strength was not as simple as it seemed. However, he still had the right to speak in front of the other academies. Now that the two big bosses of the Earth Group were present, he did not have the right to say a word. Therefore, he could only watch the competition ground with a bitter expression. ¡°Come on, Fang Yuan.¡± At this moment, Xinyu also rushed to the arena. Zhu Xu glanced at Xinyu. Back then, in order to snatch her resources, he had caused him to lose a tier-upgrading pill. He held a grudge towards this. If he were to step onto the stage this time, he would definitely teach this woman a good lesson. In the center of the stage, Fang Yuan and Su Han were both standing on the stage. Moreover, they did not have the slightest intention of going down. This caused quite a stir in the audience. Everyone had seen Su Han¡¯s strength just now. As for Fang Yuan¡¯s evaluation, it was that his pet was very powerful. He actually dared to stand in the center of the arena like Su Han. ¡°Is the match starting?¡± Su Han was unmoved. To him, the opponent was the same no matter where he was. ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. A blue wall of air rose up in the arena as the finals of the first group¡¯s mid-term exam had officially begun. ¡°Come out, Gale Hound, Shadow Wolf.¡± Fang Yuan summoned two dog-type pet beasts at once. He understood that Su Han was a strong opponent, so he wanted to take this opportunity to test their fusion skill. When he tested this skill, it was not as crazy as destructive storm, and he did not know how it would work in actual combat. For the sake of fairness, both sides showed the core data of their pet beasts. [Scientific Name: Blade Mantis] [Bloodline: Shadow] [Rarity: Platinum Peak] [Level: Level 20] [Attributes: Insect, Gold] [Location: Warrior, assassin] However, just as Fang Yuan was about to launch his attack, Su Han summoned another pet beast. This was the first time that everyone had seen Su Han fight with two pet beasts. [Scientific Name: Void Blade] [Bloodline: Shadow] [Rarity: Platinum Peak] [Level: level 20] [Attributes: Insect, Void] [Location: Warrior, assassin] These two pet beasts did not look very different from each other. One was a green mantis, while the other was a purple mantis. Moreover, they had already reached the highest level of platinum. Regardless of their level or grade, Fang Yuan believed that he had already mastered the training method of skills. Smilingly, Fang yuan said, ¡°Can we start now?¡± Su Han nodded. Fang Yuan stepped onto the Gale Hound. Since he was going to fight the trainer and the pet, he had to be prepared for defense. Team Huang was actually very good at this because they had a trainer skill called ¡°Listen¡±, which could synchronize with the pet to enter the battle state. The Gale Hound¡¯s wind chasing skill had reached level 5, which was the highest level of acceleration. Its speed had been raised to the Beast¡¯s limit of 522. No matter how fast it was, its body and nerves would not be able to react in time. Only unique races like elves and insects could surpass the upper limit of speed, or supernatural buffs like Xin Yu¡¯s ¡°Flash¡± skill. ¡°Gale Hound, use flame breath. Xiaoyou, enter stealth mode.¡± In response, the Gale Hound and Fang Yuan jumped into the air, spitting flames at Su Han. ¡°Comparing speed with insects?¡± Su Han¡¯s eyes became fierce. The sharp-edged mantis and void blade disappeared from the arena. ¡°Where did they go?¡± Seeing this scene, many people were confused. However, there was obviously something even more terrifying:. Su Han was facing a direct attack from the Gale Hound. No Pet Beast could help him block this attack. If a human body were to take the fire from a pet beast head-on, there would be no bones left! Fang Yuan also realized this point. He ordered the gale hound to slightly deviate the direction of the fire. In that case, even if it hit Su Han, it would only graze past his hand. Sure enough, the fire almost grazed Su Han¡¯s left hand. Nonetheless, Su Han¡¯s reaction was very agile. He dodged to the side, so the fire just happened to not hit his position. ¡°Su Han, what are you doing?¡± Fang Yuan was puzzled, but at this time, two mantids appeared beside Su Han. ¡°Fang Yuan¡± Su Han¡¯s cold tone made Fang Yuan shudder. While holding a strand of hair in his hand, he said, ¡°Next time you show mercy, I¡¯ll kill you.¡± Fang Yuan hurriedly touched the back of his head, for he felt that something was missing. When did they do it? Chapter 156 - The Shadow Wolf’s Determination Although the audience did not see clearly how they did it, they cheered for their game. ¡°Fang Yuan¡¯s control over his pet beasts¡¯ skills is really strong. If it were any other trainer, they would have definitely turned Su Han into ashes.¡± ¡°Really? From Su Han¡¯s tone, it seems that even if Fang Yuan did not adjust his direction, he could have easily dodged it.¡± ¡°What¡¯s more terrifying is, when did Su Han make his move?¡± Ouyang Xinglan looked like he was sure to win. Although Fang Yuan looked very strong, as long as he was in platinum grade, no one would be Su Han¡¯s match. No, even if he was a grade higher than platinum, he would not be Su Han¡¯s match either. This was absolute confidence. Fang Yuan adjusted his breathing and smiled. ¡°Alright, but I don¡¯t want to kill anyone. Next time, try not to stand together with your pet beast.¡± Su Han was confused. At this time, Fang Yuan¡¯s Shadow Wolf also stood in front of Fang Yuan with a piece of cloth in its mouth. This piece of cloth was bitten off by Xiao Ying from Su Han¡¯s butt. When it saw her master being humiliated just now, it wanted to take revenge and it just happened to seize this opportunity. The crowd burst into laughter and clapped. This was really a game between experts, a tit-for-tat game. The principal stroked his beard in satisfaction and said, ¡°The younger generation is awesome.¡± Su Han did not feel awkward, instead, a smile appeared on his cold face. ¡°Interesting. Fang Yuan, let me tell you something. Our Su family has our own training methods. The stronger the pet beast, the stronger our own abilities will be. So don¡¯t worry about me.¡± Although he felt that he was acting pretentious, Fang Yuan could not produce any evidence. He could only trust him this time. ¡°Shall we continue with the match?¡± This time, it was Fang Yuan¡¯s turn to ask question. Another sword appeared in Su Han¡¯s hand. This time, it was not the sword that the sharp-edged mantis had transformed into. It looked like it was a trainer¡¯s equipment. ¡°Come on! Stealth.¡± The two mantises disappeared at the same time. Fang Yuan now knew that they were assassins who hid themselves. He absolutely could not stand still. ¡°Gale Hound, run. Let¡¯s not attack for now. Xiao Ying, use your stealth skill and stay by our side. They will definitely attack us. When the time comes, we will fight back. Do you understand?¡± Fang Yuan quickly completed his tactical arrangement. He was a little regretful now. If he had not acted pretentiously and wanted to go up the stage like Su Han, he would have used his fusion skill to defeat Su Han and the others. But now, facing the immense pressure from the two assassins, Fang Yuan felt that he was becoming a burden. He did not want to directly attack Su Han, even though the other party had said that they were not afraid of attacks. He ran around the stage in a circle, drawing a circle of flames on the stage. The audience thought that it was Fang Yuan¡¯s battle strategy, so they began to cheer. ¡°Why haven¡¯t they appeared yet?¡± Fang Yuan tried to slow down his movement speed. If he kept running, the strength and mental strength of the gale hound and the shadow wolf would not be able to sustain. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you know about assassins? They only know how to kill in one hit.¡± Su Han stood in the center of the ring, doing nothing. Fang Yuan did not attack such a big target, which made him feel very bored. Therefore, he had to provoke Fang Yuan. At this moment, Fang Yuan was paying full attention to his surroundings. Who knew when these two guys would appear. At the moment when the gale hound stopped, a few waves of sword that were like wind blades slashed across the gale hound¡¯s body. Fortunately, the gale hound reacted in time and spun its body, passing through the waves. The other purple mantis was crossing its two blades at this moment. It was behind the gale hound that had yet to fully land. As long as it used the cross slash, Fang Yuan and the gale hound would be cut into four pieces. It was a cold-blooded animal that had no feelings, so it would not show mercy. It was just about to open its two blades. ¡°Awoo.¡±Just as it was about to do this, the shadow wolf appeared from the side, pouncing on it and biting its neck. However, another sharp-edged mantis appeared and stabbed into the shadow wolf¡¯s body, causing it to open its mouth in pain and bleed profusely. Following which, the two mantises disappeared from the stage. The shadow wolf was currently bleeding profusely. Not only did it lose HP, but its speed and attack power were also decreasing. ¡°There¡¯s no other way.¡± Fang Yuan glanced at Su Han in the center of the stage. Only by attacking him could he lure the two assassins out. ¡°Gale Hound, use flame breath to attack Su Han.¡± Has it finally arrived? Su Han looked at the flames that were charging towards him and raised his sword. When the flames touched the sword, they turned into two flames. Moreover, it was as if Su Han¡¯s entire body had a defensive barrier. The flames couldn¡¯t even get close to his body. ¡°Is he a human?¡± ¡°What kind of perverts are the Heaven group?¡± Those who saw this scene couldn¡¯t help but sigh. However, Fang Yuan was obviously not one of them. He had seen even more exaggerated scenes. For example, the Demon World warrior¡¯s javelin had killed a diamond intermediate-grade upwind butterfly. If humans and demons were of the same origin, this was actually a very basic skill. ¡°You¡¯ve lost.¡± Su Han revealed a confident smile. This was because after the fierce gale hound launched an attack, it would inevitably have a short period of stiffness. Even if it was only 0.5 seconds, it was enough for his assassin to kill the gale hound and Fang Yuan who was on it. As expected, the two mantises were on the left and the right, with the intention of splitting the gale hound into several parts. The invisible shadow wolf was also caught by the mantis because it was dripping blood. The moment it pounced on it, the void blade slashed at its throat with its claws, and Xiao Ying fell to the ground. ¡°Admit defeat. It can still be saved.¡± Su Han reverted to the indifferent attitude he had at the beginning of the game, as if he felt that Fang Yuan did not bring him too much fun. Mantis¡¯s attack was also temporarily stopped by Su Han¡¯s command. There was no psychological burden for him to kill his pet, but he could not bear to kill someone. However, he was not a person with principles. If Fang Yuan wanted to continue to resist, then he had no qualms about killing him. Therefore, the choice was now in Fang Yuan¡¯s hands. At this moment, Fang Yuan was thinking that the shadow wolf¡¯s throat seemed to have been cut. There was a special wolf den in the pet space for healing. He raised his hand and was ready to reverse the summoning, but he felt the shadow wolf¡¯s call. This was the ability of Fang Yuan who was in the ¡°Listening¡± state. ¡°Master, I have already captured the position of the two assassins. Let me kill them.¡± ¡°No.¡± Fang Yuan shook his head. This sentence could not help but remind him of Ah Li who was fighting with the alloy tyrannosaurus. Ah Li was also so confident, but in the end, it was almost killed. ¡°As long as I can defeat them, I can advance. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.¡± Xiao Ying slowly climbed up from the ground. ¡°This injury is nothing at all!¡± In the eyes of others, it would just get up from the ground and howl. Only Fang Yuan knew that Xiao Ying had made up its mind. Chapter 157 - An Unexpected Ending Fang Yuan knew that Xiao Ying¡¯s stamina could not last for long. The two assassins, the void blade and the sharp blade mantis, had already appeared in his line of sight. Although he did not know how fast they were, the lethal combination of the gale hound and the shadow wolf was undoubtedly the nemesis of speed-type pet beasts like them. As Fang Yuan gave the order, the gale hound and the shadow wolf turned into two beams of light, one in red and the other in green, as they intersected and charged towards Su Han. Su Han¡¯s face was still full of confidence. He raised his sword, and the two pet beasts also took offensive positions on both sides. However, he did not expect that the two beams of light would automatically disperse when they were about to approach him. This was not an attack skill like a shockwave, but¡­ When the gale hound and the shadow wolf reached their maximum speed, they transformed themselves into energy beams. And their targets were the void blades that attempted to enter the Void World, as well as the extremely fast blade mantis. Before they had the time to dodge, they were struck by the light formed by the gale hound and the shadow wolf. The parts that were hit turned into fragments and fell to the ground. Su Han raised his sword and shouted, ¡°Use stealth, quick!¡± Obviously, these two beams of light were the true bodies of the pet beasts. Their speed had exceeded their limits and even caught up with the insects. However, Su Han did not expect Fang Yuan to be hiding at the side after he jumped off the gale hound. As Su Han¡¯s attention was focused on the red and green beams of light, he did not see Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan rushed over and threw Su Han to the ground. There was another way to obtain victory, which was to directly kill the opponent¡¯s trainer and knock him unconscious. He punched Su Han¡¯s face with his left and right fists. At this moment, everyone in the stadium was dumbfounded. What was he doing? Was this really a battle between the trainers? ¡°That kid,¡± Ouyang Xinglan was puzzled. ¡°He¡¯s getting more and more ridiculous.¡± Su Han was not afraid. He threw his sword aside and kicked Fang Yuan with both feet. He flipped over and came up to Fang Yuan¡¯s face, imitating Fang Yuan¡¯s movements. The sharp-edged mantis was eager to protect its master. It broke out of stealth and prepared to cut off Fang Yuan¡¯s head. The shadow wolf immediately pounced on it. With a victorious expression, it bit down on its neck. The sharp-edged mantis¡¯s defense was weak. After being directly attacked by the shadow wolf, it barely shook it off. Then, it trembled and stood together with the Void Blade. ¡°Stop fooling around.¡± Su Han had already defeated Fang Yuan with his physical body. His family had specialized training in this area. How could he be defeated by a guy like Fang Yuan who was only trained halfway through. ¡°It¡¯s over.¡± Su Han felt extremely humiliated. He stretched out his hand and said, ¡°Use the fusion skill: chaotic dance of sword Qi. It doesn¡¯t matter if you kill the opponent.¡± The two mantids stood side by side in front of Su Han. Although they were only assassins, if they used chaotic dance, they could also achieve the effect of AOE. A skill that required two mantises with different attributes to activate. For a moment, sword Qi flew across the field like countless wind blades released by a high-level wind-type pet. ¡°Now is the time.¡± Fang Yuan lay on the ground and said, ¡°This is the last chance. Xiao Ying, Gale¡­ Use wolf fang whirlwind.¡± Just as this powerful wind blade was about to tear apart the gale hound and the shadow wolf, the shadow wolf howled towards the sky. It was the howl of a wolf, and it also meant the horn of a counterattack. The gale hound took a deep breath, its body bulging¡­ Then, it shot out a fan-shaped flame! This fan-shaped flame covered almost half of the arena. Moreover, this flame also had the howling effect of the shadow wolf. At the same time, it also gave the opponent ¡°tremor¡± and ¡°burning¡± status! They were all hit by each other¡¯s skills. Then, the four pet beasts stood still after the skills were over. The two mantises were on fire, while the gale hound and the shadow wolf were covered with external injuries. The hearts of the audience were in their throats. What a heroic battle this was. Fang Yuan stood behind Su Han. It was Su Han who protected Fang Yuan from being directly hurt by the flames. Otherwise, Fang Yuan would have been doomed. It was hard to imagine that these two new students, who were still newbies four months ago, could actually have such an exciting battle. However, they had yet to determine the winner and were still in a stalemate with each other¡­ The first to fall was the shadow wolf. It had lost too much blood and probably couldn¡¯t stand up anymore. Then, the two mantises also fell down. In order to not let them die here, Su Han gave up the fight ahead of time. ¡°I admit defeat.¡± Su Han summoned the mantises back into the pet space and then stretched out his hand toward Fang Yuan on the ground. ¡°You¡¯re really strong.¡± ¡°Hehe.¡± Fang Yuan put his hand on his and was pulled up by him. Although the gale dog was injured, its skin was thick and rough. It immediately ran to Xiao Ying¡¯s side and licked the wound on its body. ¡°Xiao Ying!¡± Seeing its appearance, Fang Yuan immediately wanted to summon it back into the pet space, but¡­ he found that he could not do all of this. The emotional connection between him and Xiao Ying had been severed. Fang Yuan did not care about the gazes of the people around him. He did not want to listen to the applause or cheers from the crowd. He held Xiao Ying in his arms. Its eyes were open, and its tongue was sticking out. ¡°Xiao Ying¡­¡± The shadow wolf was the first pet beast that he owned, but it actually collapsed in such a place¡­ This was unacceptable to Fang Yuan. ¡°Ahhhh!¡± He roared at the sky. To be honest, it was impossible for him not to hate Su Han. Now, he couldn¡¯t wait to cut Su Han into pieces! ¡°He actually hurt my pet beast! ! Unforgivable! !¡± Su Han suddenly had a very strange feeling. Just now, Fang Yuan had clearly shook hands with him in a friendly manner, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have gone mad. ¡°This is¡­ ?¡± Ouyang Xinglan was the first to notice that a purple flame had appeared on Fang Yuan¡¯s body. That was a special training skill of the demon race! The principal, who had always been amiable, opened his eyes wide at this moment. ¡°Impossible, how could Fang Yuan be a demon?¡± But the truth was right in front of his eyes. Fang Yuan actually hid such a terrifying side. The audience below the stage were also shocked. ¡°Such a powerful aura, who exactly is Fang Yuan?¡± No one had expected that this seemingly ordinary youth would actually hide such a terrifying power! ¡°Come out! Lotus giant lizard!¡± At this moment, Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes had turned blood-red, and they were even emitting spots of red light. This was¡­ a sign of demonization. As Fang Yuan was demonized, the lotus giant lizard that he summoned was also surrounded by purple flames! Chapter 158 - Proof of Legend At this moment, Su Han was also extremely shocked. He had just summoned his pet beasts into the space, and the only pet he could use now was the support pet beast. And Fang Yuan actually still had such a trump card. He finally understood the gap in strength between him and Fang Yuan. If Fang Yuan had used this pet just now, he probably would not have had the chance to fight back. At this moment, Su Han¡¯s eyes were filled with fear and disappointment. ¡°Light Sword!¡± ¡°Shadow Prison!¡± ¡°Holy Light!¡± The instructors of the Heaven, Earth, and Xuan groups had all made their move. Since they were demons, there was no need for them to show mercy. They had already decided to kill Fang Yuan without mercy. Although Ouyang Xinglan felt a little regret in his heart, as the feeling that the youth gave him was very good, and he did not expect that he was actually a demon, however, this was the purpose of the Heaven Secret Pavilion¡¯s existence. They would not allow any demon to enter the real world from this arcane realm. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable! Nonetheless, no matter what skill they were using, Fang Yuan thought that even if the principal came, he would also make Su Han pay with his life. ¡°Fire Feather¡±. Huang Ying stood alone in front of the three instructors. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Ouyang Xinglan looked at Huang Ying in disbelief. He had actually used the pet beast¡¯s skill to block their attack. ¡°Are you going to help the demons?¡± Sima Kaile was usually temperamental, but at this moment, he looked at Huang Ying with a serious expression. ¡°Do you know that what you¡¯ve done will make us kill you together?¡± Huang Ying shook his head and said, ¡°Fang Yuan is definitely not a demon. I believe that there must be a misunderstanding.¡± ¡°You should stay aside first. Fang Yuan is going to kill my student now!¡± Ouyang Xinglan glanced at the arena. ¡°Fang Yuan, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Although the lotus giant lizard was in a demonized state, this feeling to it was more familiar than to be domineered. ¡°Kill the man in front of me.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t respond to it. ¡°Oh?¡± It glanced at Fang Yuan and then felt Fang Yuan¡¯s aura. ¡°You¡¯re actually demonized.¡± ¡°Kill the man in front of me.¡± Fang Yuan gave another order. This time, he used the power of his soul, so the lotus giant lizard couldn¡¯t refuse. ¡°Okay.¡± The lotus lizard sighed helplessly. It would not show mercy when killing a pet beast because it was a natural law. However, it knew that if it killed the person in front of it, Fang Yuan would definitely be killed by the instructors here. Su Han had already lost his desire to fight. His eyes were empty as he looked at the lotus lizard in front of him. Meanwhile, the lotus lizard stretched out its tentacle, wanting to grab Su Han. ¡°Cut!¡± The light lion beast had unknowingly landed in front of Su Han. As a star brilliance intermediate-grade pet beast, it was originally very confident that it could cut off its vines. However, it actually only managed to force its vines back. From the moment it was demonized, the lotus flower giant lizard¡¯s realm was no longer as simple as a diamond intermediate. Just like the gale hound, after it was demonized, its strength directly rose to a whole new level. Right now, it had yet to reach star brilliance, but its strength was extremely close. The lotus flower giant lizard squatted on the ground and began to prepare its skills. If this lotus flower throwing knife was released, everyone present would probably be affected. ¡°This¡­¡± Huang Ying also felt that the situation wasn¡¯t right. ¡°Move aside!¡± Ouyang Xinglan was agitated. He said to Huang Ying, ¡°Being kind to the demons is a betrayal to the humans! Huang Ying, I¡¯ll give you one last chance!¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Huang Ying was still hesitating. He could not believe what was happening before his eyes. ¡°Light Lion Beast, if you can¡¯t kill the lotus flower giant lizard in an instant, kill Fang Yuan immediately!¡± The lion beast received the order. It knew that the lotus flower giant lizard in front of it was on par with its own strength, so it could only attack Fang Yuan. ¡°In your dream.¡± Seeing that the lion beast had wanted to attack Fang Yuan, the lotus flower giant lizard immediately surrounded him after its lotus bloomed. The petals also had a black halo around them. It was probably even more powerful than the previous lotus flower throwing knife. The lion beast dodged left and right, unable to get close, while the lotus flying daggers were already prepared to explode. ¡°Quickly protect the students!¡± Seeing the scene in front of him, Sima Kaile shouted, ¡°Quickly summon your pet beasts and protect yourselves from being touched by the flower petals!¡± The lotus flying daggers spread out in all directions. This kind of terrifying aura¡­ However, they didn¡¯t leave the arena. The principal made his move. An alarm clock dressed in a magician¡¯s robe held a magic wand in its hand. Under its command, the lotus petals seemed to be immobilized. ¡°Fang Yuan, your strength has actually exceeded my expectations.¡± The principal easily passed through the petals and arrived in front of Fang Yuan. Looking at the shadow wolf lying on the ground, he certainly understood everything. ¡°Fang Yuan, can you hear my call?¡± The principal held his hand. Fang Yuan started to roar, but after the principal held his hand, he gradually calmed down. At this moment, Fang Yuan was in the space of consciousness. ¡°Why am I back here again?¡± Fang Yuan muttered. He was clearly upset about the shadow wolf¡¯s departure just now, but now he had returned to the place where the trainer¡¯s imprint was awakened. ¡°Looks like you¡¯ve finally found the correct way to use the imprint. Congratulations,¡± she said with a smile. Fang Yuan looked at her with a puzzled expression. ¡°Go back. This isn¡¯t your world.¡± ¡°When you go back, remember to put down your grudges. No matter how bad your relationship is, you have to work together at this time.¡± Then, he saw a green light. Fang Yuan had returned to the real world, and the purplish-black light on his body had also disappeared. ¡°Principal?¡± He saw the principal holding his hand, and his heart was full of doubt. ¡°Quickly tell your pet to stop attacking,¡± the principal said with a smile. He was very happy that Fang Yuan had regained his consciousness. The riot ended, and everyone dispersed. Only Su Han remained where he was, with a bewildered expression on his face. The principal said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Do you still remember using the circulation power?¡± Fang Yuan was suddenly jolted awake. Just now in the arcane realm, that woman seemed to have given him something, and then told him to work together with his companions. He raised his hand, and the symbol of the circulation became even more obvious. [ Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a legendary tool for the first time. ] [ Ding! ¡®Circulation¡¯ detected. Grade: Legendary ] That was it? What about 100 times stronger? Could the legend be the end? He looked at the symbol on his hand incredulously, and his entire body emitted a strong green aura. Then, he saw the shadow wolf¡¯s carcass disappear. After that, it turned into a pet beast egg, lying quietly in Fang Yuan¡¯s arms. ¡°It¡¯s asleep. When it wakes up again, it will want to see you,¡± the principal patted Fang Yuan¡¯s head and said with a smile. Fang Yuan thought of all this and tears welled up in his eyes. Chapter 159 - The Principal’s Request The mid-term exam ended in an absurd atmosphere. Early the next morning, Fang Yuan picked up the ¡°Cultivation Manual¡± and once again stepped onto the Huang group¡¯s training ground. ¡°Xiao Ying¡­¡± He called out silently, but found that he had lost contact with Xiao Ying. There were two pet eggs in his pet space, but there were no signs of ownership. One was the little pet egg he had obtained in the grass arcane realm, and the other the pet beast egg of the shadow wolf. He had already understood the power of his trainer¡¯s mark. As long as he had this power, any dead pet beast could return to its origin and reincarnate again. Now, Fang Yuan had become a famous person in the school. When he went out, he had to wear a mask, or else it would cause a huge sensation. Fortunately, there were no classes to attend now. Furthermore, there were not many people in Huang group, so he could move freely. At this moment, Fang Yuan was lying on the grass, staring at the sky in a daze. A person took small steps calmly and slowly walked to Fang Yuan¡¯s side, shouting, ¡°Fang Yuan, what are you daydreaming about?¡± This woman¡¯s roar was so loud that Fang Yuan was frightened. ¡°Xinyu, what are you doing? Are you trying to scare me to death?¡± Just now, Fang Yuan was thinking about his future life, but Xinyu directly interrupted his train of thought. ¡°Is your father the great demon king?¡± Xinyu said thoughtfully, ¡°Otherwise, how could you use the power of the demon race?¡± Due to Fang Yuan¡¯s performance, the teachers decided not to hide the matter of the demon race anymore. Instead, they told all the students everything. About 10 meters away from them, Huang Ying in white was looking at them with a smile. ¡°If it weren¡¯t for Teacher Huang and the principal protecting you, I would have been worried that Senior Ouyang would have cut you into pieces,¡± Xinyu said with lingering fear. Then, they saw Huang Ying walk over. Fang Yuan understood that Huang Ying was going to tell him everything he knew. He turned his body over and sat on the ground, quietly listening to Huang Ying¡¯s next speech. ¡°In the era when pet beasts had just awakened, some people were also affected by the spiritual energy. They were so powerful that others were afraid of them.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know whether it was luck or the creator¡¯s intention, but at this time, an arcane realm was created and became the home of these mutated humans.¡± ¡°It was peaceful at first, but with the expansion of human desires, the pet beasts in the real world were not enough for them to share. Then, humans extended their hands into the arcane realm.¡± ¡°At first, the humans were not a match for the demons, but the humans invented the fusion skill and a series of pet beast legion tactics, allowing the humans to gradually gain the upper hand in the battle with the demons.¡± ¡°The demons had no choice but to be forced into a cave in the secret realm. Fortunately, that cave was actually connected to another space, which was also suitable for the demons to live in.¡± ¡°Unfortunately, the creatures that went there would obtain eternal life.¡± Huang Ying sighed. ¡°Wait, eternal life? Isn¡¯t that a good thing? How can it be called misfortune?¡± Xinyu looked at Huang Ying in confusion. ¡°Hahaha, if you live in sin and fear, then you won¡¯t think that eternal life is a good thing. Therefore, in this world, there will always be people who choose to commit suicide.¡± Huang Ying¡¯s words were like a clap of thunder on flat ground, exploding waves in the pure and flawless heart of Xinyu. ¡°Fang Yuan, although you have shown the power of the demon race, I don¡¯t think that you are a demon, or that your ancestor is a demon.¡± Huang Ying looked at Fang Yuan seriously. ¡°Of course I¡¯m not,¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°My father is an archaeologist. He is dedicated to finding the truth of the birth of pet beasts, as well as finding a way for pet beasts to live peacefully with humans. How could he be a demon?¡± Huang Ying stretched out a finger and flicked Fang Yuan¡¯s head. ¡°It hurts!¡± Fang Yuan said coldly. ¡°Teacher, what are you doing?¡± ¡°That action just now was a huge threat to the demon race,¡± Huang Ying said briefly. Fang Yuan was in a terrible mood. If it were any other time, he would not mind joking with Huang Ying. However, at this point, he was not in the mood to continue messing with him. ¡°Fang Yuan, I have something to ask of you.¡± Huang Ying seemed to have thought about it for a long time before a determined expression appeared on his face. ¡°Teacher, what are you talking about? If you want your students to do something, just say it.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. All the teachers in this school had strange tempers, but Huang Ying was the only one that he could not figure out. ¡°I hope that you can use your power to bring those people who have been invaded by the energy back to normal and return to the human world.¡± A gust of wind blew across the grass and rolled up a yellow wave of wheat. ¡°Can I do it?¡± Hearing Huang Ying¡¯s words, Fang Yuan unconsciously looked at the trainer¡¯s imprint on his hand. At this moment, Ouyang Xinglan who was at the side also walked over. Huang Ying looked at Ouyang Xinglan vigilantly, which made the latter defend, ¡°What are you doing! It¡¯s not like I definitely have to kill Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, if he really wants to make a move, I will stop him.¡± Sima Kaile said and also descended from the sky. Seeing their figures, Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes. ¡°Why me?¡± ¡°Due to the power you have.¡± The last to walk out was the principal. He said, ¡°After the demons are killed, they will leave behind a magic core, but the magic core will still carry their memories. The trainer who absorbed the magic core will have his consciousness taken away by the demons one day.¡± ¡°What?¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan could not help but shout out. ¡°There is a problem with our education approach. We have always thought that magic cores were harmless, so our trainers have been relying on fighting the demons and absorbing the magic cores to increase their mental power¡­¡± ¡°Until one day, my strongest disciple, Teacher Xia Hou of Huang group, absorbed too many magic cores, causing him to fall into a state of madness.¡± After absorbing too many magic core, Xia Hou seemed to have lost his mind. He attacked everyone he saw and even muttered words that he would take down humans with bloodshed to cleanse their hatred and for revenge. After listening to their description, Fang Yuan had a clear understanding of the demon race and Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Actually there were many hidden secrets in this secret realm that was seemed to be called a university. ¡°Fang Yuan, we¡¯re going to teach you the strongest power in our academy right now, and then you¡¯ll go challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion!¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t this school Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± ¡°No, our school, the main reason why this secret realm is called Heavenly Secret Pavilion, is because of this endless building. When you challenge the highest level, you¡¯ll receive a legendary pet beast and equipment reward.¡± ¡°Only those who pass Heavenly Secret Pavilion will be able to break the curse of the demons.¡± The principal¡¯s expression was unusually solemn. Chapter 160 - Start the Training ¡°What you need now is mental power training.¡± Ouyang Xinglan was walking around solemnly with his teaching whip. Unlike Huang Ying¡¯s hellish training method, Ouyang Xinglan focused more on training the ¡°mental power¡± concentration. For example, he asked Fang Yuan to hold a glass of water on his head and then control his pet beast to fight. ¡°In a battle, if the trainer¡¯s mental strength is not focused and is affected by other things, the pet¡¯s combat ability will also be affected.¡± When he had just arrived at the Heaven group and was training with Xu Fei, Fang Yuan¡¯s mental strength had exceeded Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s imagination. However, he found that his mental strength was extremely scattered, so he began to train him on this aspect. The biggest advantage of concentrating mental power was that the pet beast could respond to commands faster in battle. Fang Yuan was no longer required to give orders now. With just a thought, they would start to attack, especially the agile pet beast. It had almost achieved the effect of instant casting of skills. In just a few days, Fang Yuan had already mastered the method of concentrating mental power, which made Ouyang Xinglan especially envious of Huang Ying. He had actually snatched such a good seedling. In terms of mental power, no further practice was required anymore. What he needed to improve now was the combat skills of Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beasts. ¡°Fang Yuan, next, summon in turn your pet beasts that can fight to fight against my Radiant Lion Beast.¡± Fang Yuan did not know what¡¯s going on at that time and when he heard that he was going to fight against a star brilliance pet beast, he opened his mouth wide and kept waving his hand, ¡°No, my strongest pet beast right now is only at diamond intermediate.¡± ¡°Diamond intermediate?¡± Ouyang Xinglan recalled when the lotus giant lizard was in its demonized state the last time. It actually ended up in a draw with the radiant lion beast. What would happen if it evolved to the star brilliance grade? However, now was not the time to think about these things. Ouyang Xinglan showed his strict side as a teacher. ¡°Summoning your pet beast, the panel data is actually only one aspect. What really determines the strength of the pet beast is still its combat skills.¡± Speaking of combat skills, Fang Yuan believed that he would not lose to others. He was a trainer who was good at finding the opponent¡¯s weakness and then giving it a fatal blow. However, Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s training was on systematic fighting method. For example, when the opponent launched an attack, how to make a strategic choice, whether to defend or dodge, or choose to fight the opponent. It was very particular. ¡°Everything has a relationship where the attributes counter each other. If it¡¯s a lightning-type skill, and your pet beat is an earth-type skill, especially when it¡¯s rock-related, you should choose to face the opponent head-on. Its full-strength attack will then be reduced to the minimum by your attack. At the same time, it¡¯s in a completely offensive state which has no defense. Therefore it can maximize the damage.¡± After fighting with Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s pet beast for the whole day, Fang Yuan and his pet beasts were both exhausted. However, he benefited a lot from it this time. Fang Yuan previously did not know that there were so many battle techniques. The battles he understood were mostly using speed to create distance or to fight from behind. When the pet beast had an attribute advantage, this move was not a problem at all. But when he met an equally matched opponent, Fang Yuan would be at a disadvantage. However, he was lucky that the opponents he met all the while were all suppressed by his attributes. After all, there was a 100 times strengthening system here. ¡°Oh yes, Teacher Ouyang, I remember when I first entered the school, I gave you a lot of magic crystals. Did you manage to research anything?¡± Fang Yuan thought of the iron golem that he fought with when he entered the school. Now, it should no longer be Fang Yuan¡¯s opponent. ¡°Magic crystals are the same as magic cores, but one is used to strengthen the mental power of humans, and the other the fighting strength of pet beasts.¡± He then reached out and handed the magic crystals back to Fang Yuan, and said, ¡°If you really encounter an emergency, you can give it to your pet beasts to eat. Their abilities will rise to an exaggerated level in a short time. However, if it surpasses your ability, it will no longer be controlled by you. Moreover, the demonized pet beast will have a very strong desire to attack. You have to restrain them well.¡± After saying that, he waved his hand. There was no more other things that he could give to Fang Yuan. The current Fang Yuan was only lacking in the pet beast¡¯s level and grade. In terms of battle interpretation, he was actually already on par with this old man who was close to 50 years old. He could not help but sigh with emotion. ¡°In the remaining one month, you have to go to the old man Sima¡¯s place to learn how to raise the grade of your pet.¡± Seeing the figure of Ouyang leaving, Fang Yuan stood up from the ground and bowed, ¡°Thank you, Teacher Ouyang, for your teachings.¡± He waved his hand and did not say anything else. After the training of the Heaven group ended, Fang Yuan straightaway went to Sima Kaile¡¯s door without any delay. The students of the Earth group all knew Fang Yuan. When they saw him walking over, they all retreated. They were very afraid of his strength. Sima Kaile usually acted as if he was incompatible with Ouyang Xinglan. In actual fact, he was a teacher who doted on his students very much. The main content of the learning here was refining materials. Almost no one outside the Heavenly Secret Pavilion had any research on the evolution of pet beasts. However, the Earth group had expertise in this area. Fang Yuan already knew that pet evolution required special materials, but what he didn¡¯t know was how to obtain the materials. In his impression, he could only obtain them by challenging the certification of arcane realm. In fact, it wasn¡¯t. The Earth group had a unique system for pet beast evolution research. For example, for wind-type pet beast to evolve from platinum to diamond, it needed wind-type materials of diamond grade, along with the pet beast¡¯s own blood, feathers, and other props, to refine an upgrade pill. Usually, the upgrade pill that the students of Heavenly Secret Pavilion received every quarter was refined with the overall materials. Therefore any pet beast could use it for evolution, but it would take a long time to refine. ¡°The upgrade materials are the biggest problem that troubles us.¡± Sima Kaile brought Fang Yuan and his strongest student, Du Ze, to the ¡°Fallen Star Plain.¡± This was the most dangerous area of Heavenly Secret Pavilion because it was close to the entrance of the demon world. However, this place could obtain the highest level of all-elemental materials. ¡°Fang Yuan, what materials do you need now?¡± Sima Kaile asked. He knew that Fang Yuan had many pet beasts, but he had never understood which one was his main battle pet. ¡°Teacher Sima, actually, I have a problem.¡± Fang Yuan thought of the three tails and summoned it. ¡°This is¡­ a three-elemental pet beast?¡± Sima Kaile was very knowledgeable. He had seen Fang Yuan fight using the three-tailed pet beast before, but he did not understand the mechanism of the three-tailed pet beast. It seemed that he needed to switch to other attributes in order to use other skills. It was different from the three-elemental pet beast in true sense. Chapter 161 - The Principle of Pet Beast Evolution ¡°Ordinary pet beasts only need one set of evolution materials. However, three tails is the only pet beast I¡¯ve seen that requires three materials to evolve.¡± Fang Yuan told Sima Kaile what he had encountered during the certification mystic realm. ¡°There¡¯s actually such a thing?¡± Sima Kaile held his chin and said after thinking for a moment, ¡°You¡¯re saying that after it evolves, it has attributes that it didn¡¯t have before?¡± Fang Yuan nodded. It was only then he noticed that Du Ze¡¯s expression turned very ugly. Du Ze had originally been very proud of having a dual-elemental pet beast, but now that he knew that Fang Yuan¡¯s three-elemental pet beast actually had six tails and nine tails, didn¡¯t that mean that it had nine attributes at the same time? Was that a realm that humans could reach? ¡°In the real world, I have a friend who has also invented an evolution potion.¡± Fang Yuan continued, ¡°During the battle with the black market merchant, I saw him use the evolution potion to evolve the Wind Spirit Fox into a three-tailed beast. However, that three-tailed beast doesn¡¯t have elemental power. It¡¯s just an ordinary three-tailed beast.¡± ¡°That should be the characteristic of the elf pet beast.¡± Sima Kaile thought of this unique race. Their mental power was strong and their numbers were very rare. However, just like what Fang Yuan had said, they had a unique evolution system, therefore, they were stronger than other pet beasts. ¡°Fang Yuan, let¡¯s put aside the evolution of the three tails for now.¡± Sima Kaile thought, ¡°When you go to challenge the Heavenly Secret Pavilion later, you will definitely get the corresponding materials. If you use this method to evolve, I¡¯m afraid it will reduce its growth rate.¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Fang Yuan nodded, and then began to plan the items that he would want to obtain in his heart. The Shadow Wolf¡­ was no longer around. The Spirit Healing Queen Bee, the Heavy Armored Bear, the Steel Gryphon, the Thunder Pick, the Iced Seahorse, the Lotus Giant Lizard, the Gale Hound¡­ While thinking, Fang Yuan summoned them one by one. Sima Kaile knew that Fang Yuan had many pet beasts, but he definitely didn¡¯t expect that he had so many, and their quality had reached the peak of platinum. Moreover, Fang Yuan still had more than a hundred gryphons waiting to be fed. Thinking of this, Sima Kaile sighed and thought to himself, ¡°This must be the chosen one. Not only he has the mark of circulation, he can also control such a powerful troop of pet beasts, he might really be able to resolve the conflict between humans and demons.¡± In the next half a month, Fang Yuan stayed here to fight with all kinds of pet beasts and obtained the materials. [ Ding. Feather of Gale detected. Grade: Diamond high-grade ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and receive the diamond high-grade Feather of Gale ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and receive the star brilliance low-grade Feather of Gale ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in quantity and receive the diamond high-grade Feather of Gale * 100] The higher the grade, the more materials were needed. Originally, in this field, only diamond-grade materials could be obtained. However, after Fang Yuan¡¯s hundredfold system strengthening, he actually obtained the evolution materials of star brilliance. 15 days later, Fang Yuan and Du Ze returned to the academy. When they displayed the materials, the students of the Earth group were all shocked. Fang Yuan¡¯s materials, regardless of quantity or quality, completely surpassed the materials that Du Ze had obtained. Even¡­ ¡°Teacher, I heard you say that we can at most upgrade pet beasts to diamond grade. But now I have materials of the star brilliance grade, can I upgrade pet beasts to the star brilliance grade?¡± Sima Kaile was shocked when he heard this. He instantly rushed to Fang Yuan and identified the star brilliance grade materials from the props that were flashing with various type of materials. He clicked his tongue and praised, ¡°Fang Yuan, where did you get these materials?¡± ¡°They are the Dustless Blood Thunder Lizard, the Flying Star Stone Golden Falcon, the Goose Feather Flame Withering Ape¡­¡± It was because of Nero that for all that it had swallowed, he would have their basic information. Fang Yuan reported the names of these diamond high-grade pet beasts as if they were his family jewels. Many of the students here did not even have a diamond low-grade pet beast. They were still stuck at the peak of platinum. However, Fang Yuan as a freshman, was actually able to fight against a diamond high-grade pet beast and even killed it to obtain the materials. They sucked in a breath of cold air, wondering what kind of monster he was. However, Fang Yuan did not care about their gazes and thoughts. Instead, he was staring at Sima Kaile, who was researching the materials. If he succeeded¡­ Then he would have a star brilliance grade pet. He would be one step closer to becoming the strongest trainer. Even the strongest teachers in the school here only had star brilliance grade pets. Whereas the king and legendary grade, they could only hear from the textbooks. As for why it was only in the textbooks, it had to trace back to before the demons were driven out from the arcane realm to the demon world. The demons were undoubtedly the strongest trainers, but it was a pity that they did not have the ability to create, moreover, the long period of internal strife had consumed their own combat strength. Recently, the strength of the demons had been getting stronger and stronger. It might be because someone who could unify their camp had appeared in the demon world. There were more and more demonized pet beasts in the world. That was why they had made the decision to train the strongest trainer to defeat the Demon King. And that person was Fang Yuan. Coming back to the main topic, Sima Kaile had never refined a star brilliance grade medicinal pill before. He said, ¡°Fang Yuan, I¡¯m sorry. I really can¡¯t help you with this, but perhaps the principal will know. Please allow me to keep these materials. I will conduct a good research with the principal.¡± The value of these materials would not need to be elaborated. As Sima Kaile was worried that Fang Yuan would not be willing to part with them, he took out 10 diamond upgrade pills and handed them over to Fang Yuan. All the students who saw this scene were stunned. They were just one step away from the diamond grade, and Sima Kaile did not hand over these medicinal pills to them but actually handed them over to Fang Yuan without any hesitation. How could they not be envious. ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan kept the pills, and a series of notifications rang in his mind. [ Ding! Advancement Pill detected. Grade: Diamond low grade ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain the diamond low grade advancement pill. ] [ Second, proceed with the 100 times increase in quality and obtain the diamond intermediate-grade advancement pill. ] [ Third, proceed with the 100 times increase in effect and obtain a diamond low- grade advancement pill at level 20] Fang Yuan now understood the function of the advancement pill. His current pet beasts were all at platinum grade, so he could choose a middle-grade advancement pill. Then, he took out the ¡°Cultivation Manual¡±, which recorded the method to advance from low-grade to high-grade diamond. And his materials could be refined into high-grade diamond advancement pills. After the100 times system strengthening, he could get low-grade star brilliance advancement pills! Chapter 162 - All Round Evolution Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio This was undoubtedly good news for Fang Yuan. However, after reaching star brilliance, he could no longer control the advancement of his pet beasts, because the limit of the ¡°Training Manual¡± was diamond high-grade. When the time came, if Sima Kaile¡¯s research was fruitful, his pet beasts could be further strengthened. Fang Yuan had obtained the advancement pill and had a unique advancement method, so there was no need to continue spending time in the pharmacology class. Sima Kaile also agreed with him. ¡°Fang Yuan, I will help you refine the advancement pill that your Gryphon Legion needs, but it will take three months. During this period, you must not slack off in your practice.¡± Sima Kaile showed a rare caring tone to a person who was not his student. ¡°Mm.¡± Fang Yuan nodded, then rode the steel gryphon back to his accommodation. What he was going to do next was to evolve all the pet beasts that were at the peak of platinum into diamond low-grade! The first to accept the evolution was the Gale Hound. After the Gale Hound was demonized, its core was damaged. It was originally an incurable damage, but because of Fang Yuan¡¯s system, it was saved. It had also reached the peak of platinum after training. Even the Gale Hound did not expect that one day, it would step into the diamond realm. After swallowing the advancement pill in one gulp, the Gale Hound felt a huge pressure and prostrated on the ground. Pain expression also appeared on its face. It seemed that this type of upgrade was similar to that of the evolution potion. It would stimulate the potential of the pet and complete the evolution. It was not like the real evolution materials, which were directly absorbed into its own ability. ¡°Hahaha, I wonder how the professor would feel if he gets to know that they have studied the evolution for their whole life but in actual fact, there is already a complete theoretical system in Heavenly Secret Pavilion which has been put into practice.¡± Not long after, the Gale Hound completed its evolution process. Its body size did not change much compared to previously. It only had protruding canine teeth, and the flame patterns on its body had changed, becoming even more murderous. [ Scientific name: Gale Battle Hound ] [ Bloodline: Heavenly Dog ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Attribute: Fire, wind, beast ] [ Positioning: Attack/Assassination ] [ Skills: 1. Pounce, 2. Flame, 3. Stealth, 4. Flame Aura, 5. Flame Storm ] As expected, for every advancement, a new skill would be received. Moreover, this gale hound was exactly a ¡°dual-elemental pet beast¡± which Sima Kaile and the others were talking about. It did not even need to transform but was able to use the wind and fire abilities directly, and it could even combine them into a skill. When Fang Yuan saw this, he couldn¡¯t help but smile. The Gale Hound originally had enmity towards Fang Yuan because Fang Yuan had destroyed its beast core. However, as it fought side by side with Fang Yuan more and more, and its own strength had risen to an exaggerated level, its loyalty finally became full. ¡°Oh yes, I haven¡¯t given you a name yet.¡± Fang Yuan thought, ¡°From now on, I¡¯ll call you Xiao Lie.¡± He reached out his hand and stroked the fierce Gale Hound¡¯s head. The fierce Gale Hound was pleased and rubbed against him in pleasure. Subsequently, Fang Yuan completed a series of diamond evolution: The Spirit Healing Queen Bee evolved into the Holy Light Queen Bee and mastered a new skill: Spirit Uplift. The Heavy Armored Bear evolved into an Alloy Armored Beast. It was no longer a bear. Standing up, it had a hammer as a weapon and it mastered a new skill: Giant Hammer Wheel Strike The Thunder Pick had evolved into a Super Thunder Pick. It didn¡¯t change much from previously, but the color of the lightning had become darker¡­ The most anticipated was Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin let out a long howl towards the sky, breaking through its own limits. Its body was originally covered in steel feathers. After it entered the diamond grade, its steel feathers were replaced by an alloy that was almost as hard, but had greater flexibility. It obtained a new skill: Feather Blade. Finally, Xiao Jin also had its own attack skill. Its wings could shoot out dozens of feathers, piercing into the enemy¡¯s body like poisonous needles. Looking at all the pet beasts that had completed their evolution, Fang Yuan could not help but smile. Other than the Holy Light Queen Bee, which had already reached the peak, the other pet beasts still had room for improvement. At this moment, Fang Yuan realized the importance of bloodlines. Only pet beasts with bloodlines could break through the limits of diamonds and go all the way to the legendary-grade. For pet beasts without bloodlines, the limit of their strength was the peak of diamond. Although in real life, the peak of diamond was already terrific, when he thought about challenging the demon world that had possibly surpassed the star brilliance, this level was far from enough. There was still half a month for him to bring his pet beasts to practice against each other. For diamond grade and above, the amount of training required to upgrade was much greater. In the past, he could complete a level up in a day, but now, it required a week¡¯s time. In half a month¡¯s time, it was just nice to upgrade from diamond low-grade to diamond high-grade. As for Ah Li, it was sitting next to Fang Yuan in disappointment. The main reason for its disappointment was that Fang Yuan would not let it evolve. ¡°Wu wu wu.¡± Ah Li kept rubbing its head against Fang Yuan, as if saying, ¡°Give me one of those advancement pills, too.¡±. But Fang Yuan had already made up his mind to go to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to find a way to upgrade it. 15 days passed in the blink of an eye. Only Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin had completed their evolution in the Gryphon Legion. Other gryphons were still stuck at the peak of platinum. According to Sima Kaile, it would take two and a half months to get the rest of the advancement pills, so there was no need to be anxious. ¡°Knock knock knock.¡± Fang Yuan came to the dormitory area where the Xuan group was located. This place had a feeling of an ancient building, and Linghu Yiren actually lived in a thatched cottage. ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re here.¡± His eyes were tightly shut, and he had a smile on his face as he was sitting in the courtyard, sipping tea. ¡°Teacher Linghu.¡± Fang Yuan slightly bent his body. He had heard from Xinyu that Linghu was the first to rush forward after he lost control and wanted to eliminate him. He still felt a bit of a grudge in his heart. ¡°No need to be so formal.¡± Linghu Yiren pointed at the chair opposite him, signaling Fang Yuan to sit down. ¡°My duty is to eliminate demons. That¡¯s why I wanted to kill you the moment you were demonized.¡± Linghu Yiren said calmly, as if it was a very common thing. ¡°But the principal showed me your power, and I believe that you are not a demon, so don¡¯t worry that I will attack you again.¡± ¡°Teacher, why do you hate demons so much?¡± Fang Yuan sat on the chair and drank the tea that Linghu Yiren brewed with spring water. He thought of the young girls from the Indigo Tribe that he met in the forest of the demon world. They didn¡¯t look as evil as the books had described. However, it was obvious that Linghu Yiren did not want to answer this question. He did not reply, which made Fang Yuan feel a little awkward. ¡°Our Xuan group specializes in army combat. Your Gryphon Legion is very strong, but you don¡¯t know how to use tactics, so¡­¡± ¡°In the next month, you have to learn well from me. The legion of demons is not as gentle as Lin Wei¡¯s Flower Demon Legion.¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Chapter 163 - The Mysterious Tribe As he had over consumed too much mental energy, Fang Yuan was extremely exhausted. Linghu Yiren was undoubtedly the strictest among the three teachers. His requirement for his students was to not stop until they reached their limits. Fang Yuan¡¯s previous tactics were too simple. He only had one tactic, which was to use the whirlwind to gather the enemies together and then use the destructive storm to clear the area. In fact, there were also many tactics in the army battle, such as bait, sneak attacks, and bluff. It was just like how humans fought. No wonder the people in the Xuan group looked like they were from a different world. They had actually wanted to be familiar with the art of war. After all, the fighting style of the pet beast legion was different from other pet beasts. The trainer was unable to control each of the pet beasts precisely, so he could only carry out the preset tactics. No matter what, he had gained something in this month. One last thing Linghu Yiren told him was not to use the destructive storm unless it was absolutely necessary. It was because the destructive storm was too powerful, and it was an indiscriminate attack, which he would also be involved in it. Fang Yuan agreed. He did not expect that the destructive storm, a gold-tier fusion skill, would be so powerful after it was upgraded to the top level. As for the request to learn a new fusion skill, Linghu Yiren had rejected it. He felt that the fusion skill itself did not conform to the legion¡¯s battle mentality. ¡°Every warrior just needs to do their job well. There¡¯s no need for it to become a killing weapon.¡± After returning to the dormitory to rest for a short day, Huang Ying came looking for him. What greeted Fang Yuan was the guidance of the last of the four great instructors. ¡°Fang Yuan, actually, your strength has already far exceeded my imagination,¡± Huang Ying said. These words were definitely not a compliment, but truth. He believed that Fang Yuan was already stronger than any of the students he had ever taught. ¡°I already have nothing else to teach you.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan was a little disappointed because he had obtained important things from the other three instructors. When it came to Huang Ying, his own instructor, he was told that he would not be able to learn anything. ¡°However, I want to bring you to a place.¡± Huang Ying saw Fang Yuan¡¯s disappointed expression and laughed. The two of them sat on their respective mounts and flew into a dense forest. There was actually a tent set up here. It looked like a human residential area. However, were there any humans living in the arcane realm? Obviously it was the demons who were living here. As they landed, the cloth of a tent was lifted and a blue-skinned woman walked out. Seeing that it was Huang Ying, she let down her guard. Then, people with colorful skin ran out of the tent¡­ As expected, they were demons. They had blue skin, purple skin, brown skin, and all kinds. Fang Yuan immediately understood the meaning of the various tribes they were talking about. So they were divided into tribes according to their skin color. It was somewhat similar to the human world. No, they were originally humans. It was just that they had mutated. A few little girls ran over, and Huang Ying took out some candies from his pocket and handed over to them. These demons were completely unwary of Huang Ying, but when they saw Fang Yuan, they didn¡¯t think the same. ¡°This is¡­¡± A member of the Indigo Tribe pointed a spear at Fang Yuan, as if threatening him. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid. He is my student, Fang Yuan,¡± Huang Ying blocked in front of Fang Yuan and said. ¡°Huang Ying, why did you bring him here?¡± ¡°I want to show you his power.¡± ¡°Power? Power can¡¯t solve any problem.¡± ¡°No.¡± Huang Ying smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s because you haven¡¯t found the right power.¡± After saying that, he grabbed Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and said to them, ¡°Do you want to break away from the King¡¯s control?¡± ¡°King?¡± Fang Yuan looked at them in confusion. After hearing Huang Ying¡¯s words, their faces showed fear and anticipation. ¡°Can this youth let us break away from the King¡¯s control?¡± An old demon seemed to be their leader asked. She held her walking stick and walked towards Fang Yuan. Looking at the mark on his hand, she asked in confusion, ¡°This is¡­¡± ¡°Dora, do you trust me?¡± The old woman nodded, and then she saw Huang Ying put her hand on Fang Yuan¡¯s. ¡°Fang Yuan, use your trainer skill.¡± He had no idea what Huang Ying was doing, but Fang Yuan still followed his instructions. As the green light on Fang Yuan¡¯s body lit up, the old woman¡¯s body that touched him also turned green. She felt the energy of life. However, she soon wailed. Seeing the scene, Fang Yuan quickly jumped back as he was afraid that he might hurt her. ¡°Great Elder, are you okay?¡± A group of demons saw the old woman lying on the ground and immediately surrounded her. They looked at Fang Yuan and Huang Ying with anger. The old woman stopped them from being rude and said, ¡°The power of this young man is exactly opposite of Wang Gang¡¯s.¡± Hearing this, the demons began to look at each other and discuss. Fang Yuan was completely confused. These people were acting like a cult. Finally, the crowd quieted down. The old woman walked forward and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°We hope you can defeat the King. That way, our curse might be lifted.¡± ¡°The King? Curse?¡± Fang Yuan tilted his head and looked at them in confusion. ¡°Fang Yuan, for the next month, you will stay here and train with them.¡± When Huang Ying said this, Fang Yuan was shocked. This teacher actually left him alone with the demon tribe, and he even let him, a human, train with the demon tribe. Huang Ying smiled at the Great Elder and said, ¡°Dora, then I¡¯ll leave it to you. He hasn¡¯t fought with the demon tribe, and he doesn¡¯t understand the strength of the pet beasts in the demon world. For the next one month, please train him well. In return, he will break the curse on all of you, definitely.¡± The Great Elder then brought his clansmen and knelt down together, as if thanking Huang Ying for his kindness. Huang Ying did not say anything polite, instead, he sat on his phoenix, and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°In the hands of the other three teachers, you can only learn the human¡¯s control of the pet beasts. Only here can you understand the truth of the pet beast world. Good luck.¡± After saying that, he flew up into the sky with the phoenix and disappeared. At this moment, all the demons surrounded Fang Yuan and looked at him as if he was an animal. The Great Elder winked at a woman with cool clothes and green skin. She then nodded and walked out of the crowd, saying, ¡°Your name is Fang Yuan, right?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Okay, follow me.¡± The other demons did not follow. They both walked to an empty space. ¡°Summon your companions and fight with me.¡± A giant eagle with golden lightning flashed appeared behind her. Fang Yuan seemed to have seen that pet somewhere. Chapter 164 - The Fighting Style of Demons When it came to this pet beast, Pick was undoubtedly the most impressed because it was the same species as the lightning sparrow, but its level was higher. [ Scientific name: Lightning Bird ] [ Bloodline: Luoxian ] [ Rarity: Diamond low-grade ] [ Attributes: Bird, Lightning, Divine Beast ] [ Positioning: Attack/Defense ] [ Skills: 1. Lightning turbulence, 2. Sprint, 3. Advanced lightning strike, 4. Lightning skill ] Seeing that her pet was a thunder bird, Fang Yuan could not help but ask, ¡°Do all the people of your Green Tribe use thunder-type pet beasts?¡± ¡°How do you know this about the Green Tribe?¡± She was slightly surprised, because even Huang Ying, they did not told him about the conflict between the tribes. ¡°I fought with the people of the Indigo Tribe before. At that time, they wanted to kidnap a girl from the Green Tribe. I think her name was Vera?¡± Fang Yuan recalled the scene at that time. Although it was more than four months ago, Fang Yuan¡¯s mental power had become stronger, and his memory had obviously improved a lot. She sucked in a breath of cold air and said, ¡°You had actually saved Princess Vera.¡± Then she sighed, ¡°But it has nothing to do with us deserters anymore.¡± ¡°You demons are also quite strange.¡± Fang Yuan did not say anything more. Since it was only a diamond low-grade thunderbird, there was no need for other pet beasts. Through the battle training of the Heaven group, Fang Yuan already knew the proper method to crack the thunder-type pet beast. The Alloy Armored beast with a giant hammer appeared in front of Fang Yuan. Just from its appearance, it was hard to imagine that it was once a bear. ¡°Thunderbird, use lightning.¡± Fang Yuan was waiting for this opportunity. ¡°Alloy Armored Beast, use Boulder Toss!¡± Originally, the Alloy Armored Beast did not have this skill. However, during the training of the Heaven group, Ouyang Xinglan told Fang Yuan that if he did not have this skill, he would be at a disadvantage when dealing with flying lightning type pet beasts. Hence, he used many skill recombination pills to derive this skill. He did not expect it to be used so quickly. There were only two types of lightning damage. One was the vibration effect on the nerves, and the other was high temperature burning. All of these were not a problem for inorganic stones. As long as they were close to the mountain, the Alloy Armored Beast¡¯s stones could be used indefinitely. However, in this kind of forest, the effect would be slightly bad. However, as a diamond intermediate grade level 25 Alloy Armored Beast, its attack power should be more than enough to strike the Thunderbird. The thick lightning struck the stones without any impact. The three huge stones fiercely smashed into the Thunderbird¡¯s body, repelling it quite a bit. In the process of releasing its attack skills, it was unable to move. ¡°Not bad.¡± The demon race trainer saw Fang Yuan¡¯s tactics and command and gave a slight sigh of admiration. The lightning skill was no longer usable, but the Thunderbird had another ability to transform itself into lightning. Looking at the Heavy Armored Alloy Beast again, which entire body was surrounded by metal, it was undoubtedly an extremely excellent conductor. ¡°Thunderbird, use the lightning to envelop yourself. Then, charge and attack the Armored Alloy Beast!¡± The demon trainer gave a new order to attack. The Thunderbird had suffered a slight injury just now, but it was not serious, it therefore did not have much of an impact on it. As for this move, Ouyang Xinglan had also taught Fang yuan the correct method to break it. This kind of charging effect with elemental attacks actually greatly reduced its own attack power. There were two ways to solve this. The first was to use a debuff that reduced the opponent¡¯s speed, for example, the alloy Tyrannosaurus¡¯s ¡°Tremors¡± and the Iced Seahorse¡¯s ¡°Area of Effect Deceleration¡±. The second method was¡­ ¡°Alloy Armored Beast, return. Ah Li, it¡¯s your turn now.¡± Originally, Fang Yuan was not good at switching pet beasts in battle. Whether it was summoning or recalling a pet beast, it required an extremely high amount of mental energy. However, after three months of intensive training, Fang Yuan¡¯s own ability had greatly improved. In addition to the mental energy concentration that he had learned in the Heaven group, coupled with his own ¡°Circulation¡± special skill, he was actually able to seamlessly switch pet beasts now. As a platinum-pinnacle Ah Li, the skills of the soul stones had made Ah Li the nemesis of all elemental damage skills. In addition, Ah Li was currently in the form of wind, so even if the Thunderbird hit it, it would not be able to cause serious damage. Using two skills at the same time to attack like the Thunderbird was almost a sure-kill skill. In this regard, the Thunderbird¡¯s attack style was the same as that of Pick¡¯s. Thunderbird had already turned into a lightning ball and was charging back and forth at Ah Li. However, its hit rate was not impressive. It only hit Ah Li two or three times, and Ah Li was almost unharmed. When it ended its charging state, it was the time for Ah Li to counterattack. Three wind blades slashed across the Thunderbird¡¯s body, causing it to lose a lot of feathers. Fang Yuan had shown mercy just now. If the three wind blades had hit the Thunderbird in a real battle, it would have lost its ability to fight even if it did not die. ¡°Clap clap clap.¡± The demon race trainer subconsciously clapped and said, ¡°As a human, especially such a young human, it¡¯s really amazing that you can do this.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know what she meant, because from her appearance, she didn¡¯t look more than 30 years old. Why did she talk like an old man? ¡°But that¡¯s only limited to the human world.¡± She stretched out her hand, and a long spear appeared in her hand. ¡°This is¡­¡± Fang Yuan remembered that all the people of the Green Tribe seemed to have such a weapon. Was this the trainer¡¯s equipment? At this moment, the demon stuck the long spear into the ground and began to chant an incantation. For a moment, the sky and earth changed color. Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t open his eyes due to the wind. He used his hand to block in front of his eyes. In order to prevent its master from being blown away, Ah Li also stuck close to Fang Yuan. When Fang Yuan opened his eyes, he realized that he was no longer in the forest. Instead, he was in a place that was similar to the Thunder Arcane. This place was barren. Only the sky would fall from time to time, producing loud lightning bolts. ¡°Boom!¡± ¡°Boom!¡± ¡°Boom!¡± This happened again and again. ¡°The Thunderbird can only maximize its strength in the domain of lightning,¡± said the demon trainer. At this moment, the Thunderbird was in the sky, glaring at Ah Li as if it had been angered by Ah Li¡¯s attack. ¡°What is this?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously, ¡°It feels like I have entered a virtual arena.¡± However, a bolt of lightning struck Fang Yuan¡¯s side, causing him to stop thinking about it. The feeling of the light and sound made his heart tremble. ¡°Pull it into an environment that is beneficial to us. This is the way we demons fight,¡± said the demon trainer with a smile. She pulled out her spear from the ground and threw it at Ah Li. Lightning was jumping on the surface of the spear. If Ah Li was hit by the spear, it would be in danger. Chapter 165 - Ah Li and Pick Join Hands Once Again Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Although the arm strength of the demons was superior to that of humans, it was still a piece of cake compared to pet beasts. Ah Li only left an afterimage on the spot. The long spear pierced through the shadow and stabbed straight into a stone behind Ah Li. The stone exploded with a bang and the broken stone smashed into Fang Yuan, causing an intense pain. ¡°Is this the virtual arena?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± The demon race trainer said with a tone of admiration, ¡°You guessed it right. This is our ability to pull our opponents into the virtual arena world. But here, the pain is fully 100%. In other words, if you die here, you will die in the real world as well.¡± ¡°What an abnormal ability.¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. No wonder Huang Ying wanted him to familiarize himself with the fighting style of the ¡®demon race¡¯. It was because most of the time, the ¡®human race¡¯ would pay attention to fair battles. Only the ¡®demon race¡¯ would do everything they could for victory. They even went to the extent of pulling others into the competition space. ¡°Alright, let¡¯s not waste any more time. Let¡¯s continue fighting.¡± The demon race trainer commanded the Thunderbird, ¡°Use the Lightning Turbulence!¡± The Thunderbird in the air turned into a lightning ball and kept shooting lightning bolts in all directions. One thick lightning bolt after another hit Ah Li¡¯s side, but Ah Li managed to dodge them all. In this lightning environment, the attack ability of the lightning-type pet beast had been strengthened to the greatest extent, so¡­ Fang Yuan could do it, too. ¡°Super Thunder Pick!¡± Pick, who had upgraded to diamond intermediate, was covered with lightning, which had turned from blue to purple The moment it saw the Thunderbird, it subconsciously hid on Ah Li¡¯s body. ¡°Hahaha, Pick, you¡¯re still so timid.¡± Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan could not help but think of the first time he met Pick in Iron Castle Military Academy. Pick was fighting with Thunder Sparrow, which was a gold high-grade pet, and it was only after it lost that it was mercilessly abandoned by its master. Time passed. When it reached the diamond-rank, its opponent had also changed from gold to diamond. Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s voice, Pick grabbed the fur on the back of Ah Li¡¯s neck. This made Ah Li very uncomfortable, and it shook Pick to the ground like a flea. A bolt of lightning struck Pick¡¯s side, making it tremble in fear instantly. ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, Pick. You¡¯re already a powerful pet beast now,¡± Fang Yuan encouraged it. ¡°Do you still remember the first time you fought with the rattlesnake?¡± Ah Li and Pick looked at each other. ¡°It¡¯s much weaker than the rattlesnake, and you¡¯re much stronger than you were back then,¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Let¡¯s try again the tactic that wasn¡¯t realized back then.¡± The density of the lightning became higher and higher. Under the lightning environment, its lightning energy seemed to be endless. Ah Li picked up Pick and threw it onto its back. Pick understood and held onto its body tightly. Ah Li was no longer using the Wind Chasing Skill but the Gale Skill. As it ran, Ah Li¡¯s figure suddenly disappeared, which shocked the demon trainers and the Thunderbird greatly. ¡°Where did it go?¡± However, soon, they didn¡¯t need to worry about it anymore. Pick had already started to cast the Lightning Array. Pick and Ah Li then appeared out of the invisible state. Ah Li bit Pick and threw it towards the Thunderbird. Pick¡¯s eyes were full of confidence instead of fear. ¡°Ji ji ji!¡± The lightning bolt of the Thunderbird was golden in color. After being possessed by Pick, the purple lightning bolt also landed on its body. For a moment, the light around its body kept changing. No one could tell whether it was attacking Pick or it was being attacked by Pick. Ah Li also hid far away to avoid being hit by the lightning turbulence. This was the battle between a divine beast and an elf. ¡°Hu.¡± After five minutes of fighting, the Thunderbird fell to the ground from the sky. At the same time, the illusion of lightning disappeared, and Fang Yuan returned to the forest. The Thunderbird lay on the ground and did not move. Not long after, its body was pushed by a force. A sphere gradually moved out from under its body, and then Pick came out from inside. It happily jumped over to Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan was ready to welcome it. But¡­ In the next second, Fang Yuan was paralyzed by the lightning. Pick was in a state of extreme excitement just now, so its lightning was not completely recalled. The Thunderbird turned into a ray of light and was summoned back to the pet space by the demon trainer. She walked to Fang Yuan¡¯s side and said with a smile, ¡°You¡¯re really strong.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yuan had heard this sentence countless times. However, as his goal was to become the strongest, he would not be happy because of this. ¡°But your combat skills still need to be improved. In the end, you completely relied on your pet to fight with your opponent to win.¡± She pointed out the shortcomings in Fang Yuan¡¯s battle plan. Indeed, when there were no tactics available to restrain the opponent, Fang Yuan would usually go to the extreme, such as tripping, charging into the opponent¡¯s mouth to attack, using the opponent¡¯s stray bullets to hit himself, and all sorts of methods. Every time Fang Yuan fought, he was licking the blood on the tip of his blade. If not for the system, his pet would have been crushed by the opponent¡¯s attributes many times over. ¡°I am also helpless.¡± Fang Yuan thought in his heart. If he had a pet that could completely counter the Thunderbird, such as the Mountain Giant that he had seen in the Earth Arcane Realm, then he could completely ignore the Thunderbird¡¯s attacks. ¡°Don¡¯t expect to completely restrain your opponent. It¡¯s impossible,¡± she said. ¡°My name is Leila, I¡¯m a trainer of the Hermit Tribe. Next, I¡¯ll teach you some of our demon race¡¯s combat methods.¡± ¡°Can you teach me how to use space?¡± Fang Yuan was a little curious. If he could always pull his opponent into a favorable battle situation, especially in the Wind and Grass Arcane Realm, his chances of winning would definitely be greatly increased. However, Leila very soon poured cold water on him. ¡°Impossible. Even if you are a demon, you can not use this power. This is a special ability that only the elders of the demon race would have. They have to be absolutely loyal to the King.¡± Saying this, she bit her lip. ¡°What exactly is the King that you are talking about?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. ¡°Come with me. I will tell you about the demon race.¡± Leila hooked her finger and gestured for Fang Yuan to follow her. They came to a cave. The cave looked ordinary, but the walls were covered with all kinds of strange murals. Needless to say, Fang Yuan knew that this was the history of the demon race. ¡°Fang Yuan, remember everything that I am going to tell you. Otherwise, you will definitely lose when you meet the demon race in the future.¡± ¡°Besides, I will teach you how to control the demonization of pets¡­¡± Chapter 166 - Growth After spending a month with the demons, although he was not used to it at first, Fang Yuan gradually realized that the personalities of the demons and humans were similar. ¡°Big Brother, are you leaving today?¡± Fang Yuan had already changed into the demon¡¯s signature animal skin clothes because Leila had told him not to rely too much on the trainers¡¯ equipment when she was training with Fang Yuan. These things would lose their effectiveness in the demon world. Many humans were strong in the real world, but they did take advantage of the equipment. When they arrived in the demon world, they were dumbfounded when they could no longer use the equipment. When Fang Yuan heard this, he remembered that he had asked Nero if he knew the concept of ¡°equipment¡±. Nero had the same reaction. It did not even know what equipment was. Due to this, Fang Yuan was even more convinced that Nero was not an ordinary pet beast. Although it had a scientific name, it should be a pet beast from the demon world. As for why he was captured by the black market merchants, he might have to return to the real world to find out from the organization. ¡°Yes,¡± Fang Yuan nodded. A group of purple, blue, and brown-skinned children pulled Fang Yuan¡¯s clothes, not letting him leave. In the end, Leila gave each of them a knock on their heads. ¡°Fang Yuan is going to remove the curse on us. Don¡¯t delay his journey.¡± Seeing Leila¡¯s stern look, Fang Yuan could not help but laugh. He said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. Isn¡¯t teacher Huang Ying not here yet? I¡¯ll play with the children.¡± ¡°Children?¡± Leila said, ¡°They look young, but in fact, they¡¯re already three to four hundred years old.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Fang Yuan looked at their innocent looks and said. ¡°Yes, but it has been a long time since the demon race had a new life. These children will never grow up, and their memories will only remain for one day.¡± This was what Leila told herself in the demon race¡¯s cave last time. These children¡¯s magic cores had been destroyed. Although they could maintain their lives, they had permanently lost their memories and learning abilities. As long as they fell asleep, their memories would be wiped out. Fortunately, they could stay awake for a long time. They could sleep only once a month. This was a very cruel thing. After Fang Yuan left, they would not be able to recognize him the next time they saw him. Touching the heads of the children, Fang Yuan felt a bit sad, but he could not say anything. ¡°Do you understand the meaning of your mark now?¡± Huang Ying¡¯s figure descended from the sky. A phoenix appeared above everyone¡¯s head. Huang Ying jumped down from the sky and made a simple cushioning posture, then, he stood in front of Fang Yuan. ¡°This is too cool.¡± Fang Yuan looked at the height of the phoenix. If he jumped down from such a high altitude, he would definitely be limping. On the way back, Fang Yuan did not ride on his Xiao Jin. Instead, he sat behind Huang Ying. ¡°Fang Yuan, next, you will have to challenge the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°En.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He felt the wind on his face, and it was a little stinging. ¡°I¡¯ll give you a month to say goodbye to your family.¡± ¡°Why?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. ¡°Once you enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, you can¡¯t leave this arcane realm anymore,¡± Huang Ying said. ¡°Then I won¡¯t do it!¡± Fang Yuan was a bit upset. ¡°I still have my parents and friends. How can I live in the arcane realm for my whole life?¡± At this point, Fang Yuan suddenly thought of something and stammered, ¡°Could it be that you guys¡­¡± Huang Ying nodded. ¡°We can¡¯t leave the secret pavilion for our whole life. Once we challenge the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, we can¡¯t leave this secret realm until we reach the peak.¡± ¡°Oh, I see.¡± Fang Yuan let out a sigh of relief. ¡°Hmm? It seems that you are very confident?¡± Huang Ying said with a smile. ¡°So far so good. At least I haven¡¯t lost so far,¡± Fang Yuan said confidently. ¡°And I gradually know that I can¡¯t lose. If I lose, everything will be over.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t think too highly of yourself.¡± Huang Ying laughed loudly. ¡°Even if you lose and die in the demon world, we will continue to guard the Heavenly Secret Pavilion and wait for the next miraculous youth to appear.¡± ¡°Do you know that after challenging the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, other than not being able to leave this arcane realm, our lifespans are the same as the demon race¡¯s. We will almost never see the passage of time¡­¡± Although he could not see Huang Ying¡¯s expression, Fang Yuan felt that he must be extremely lonely at this moment. ¡°Then Teacher, how old are you exactly?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t remember. If it¡¯s not 500, it should be 400,¡± he replied. ¡°Fang Yuan, now you know how abnormal you are. You haven¡¯t even entered the academy for a year, yet you are actually already on equal footing with us old men.¡± ¡°Not bad,¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. He was using a year as a hundred years, which was about the same as the system¡¯s reward. Landing on the bridge in front of the academy, Huang Ying said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Come down.¡±. Knowing what Huang Ying wanted to do, Fang Yuan also consciously stood on the bridge. The iron golem descended from the sky. As Fang Yuan was carrying a magic core, it had triggered the defense mechanism of the war machine. It was during his first time in the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, and he was beaten half death by this guy. It was different now. Just as its iron fist was about to land on Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan¡¯s body disappeared like a shadow. It was Ah Li. After pulling away from the iron golem, the iron golem didn¡¯t even know where Fang Yuan was. At this moment, Fang Yuan was standing on the stone pillar with Ah Li. ¡°So you are also a demon.¡± Fang Yuan now had the ability to see through the magic core. The inner part of this iron golem was actually a magic core. It was filled with hatred towards the demon race. Therefore, once a demon approached it, it would attack crazily. It was not created by the academy. Huang Ying nodded to Fang Yuan, and Fang Yuan activated his trainer skill. With the help of the trainer skill, Ah Li¡¯s flames became even thicker. Its high-temperature flames completely covered the iron golem. The iron golem reached out to block it, but its hands were melted. It then used its arms, and it was melted again. In the end, Ah Li¡¯s flames lasted for about 30 seconds, and the iron golem completely melted, including the magic core in its body. However, after the flame disappeared, the green light on Ah Li¡¯s body seemed to be attached to the melted iron golem and gradually turned into an egg. Ah Li jumped down with Fang Yuan on its back. Fang Yuan picked up the egg and handed it to Huang Ying. Huang Ying shook his head and smiled, ¡°This is yours.¡± ¡°Do you think it will remember that I hurt it after it hatches again?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know anything about philosophy.¡± Huang Ying was biting a bristlegrass in his mouth. They were standing at the school gate, looking at the signboard of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°But I believe that it will be glad that its soul has been freed.¡± Chapter 167 - Return to Chuxin Town Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Fang Yuan! You¡¯re finally back!¡± Chuxin Town was an ordinary street. It was originally very remote and there were very few shops. But now, it had developed into the most luxurious commercial street. Pet beast shop, trainer equipment shop, and all kinds of pet beast related shops were opened nearby. It was because there lived an amazing trainer who had saved humans who were threatened by demonized pet beasts three times. Moreover, he was only an 18-year-old youth who was now studying in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Although ordinary people did not know about the existence of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the trainers all knew the value of it. Therefore, they all gathered here, wanting to know more about Heavenly Secret Pavilion from Fang Yuan, or how to become an amazing trainer. All of this had nothing to do with Fang Yuan. His family lived in an apartment behind this street. ¡°Mom.¡± It was said that no matter how far one had been away or how old one was, one would always be a child at home. During this period of training, Fang Yuan¡¯s muscles had become thicker and he had also grown taller. Seeing these, his mother was especially gratified. ¡°It would be great if your father were around.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go to the hotel for dinner.¡± ¡°No need, Mom. I just want to eat your home-cooked dishes,¡± Fang Yuan said. Seeing that Fang Yuan had something to tell her, his mother agreed readily. ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll make you your favorite fried egg. Aiyo, college students are so hard to please.¡± As the house was not big, Fang Yuan did not plan to let the pets out. He sat in his room and read the diary he had written when he was young. At that time, he had been dreaming of becoming a hero every day. Now he finally had a chance, but he did not feel the joy of realizing his dream. Instead, he felt heavy. ¡°Son, I¡¯m going out to buy groceries. If you go out to play later, remember to lock the doors and windows! Now that there are many pet beasts, there are even thieves who fly in from the windows to steal things.¡± His mother was complaining and then opened the door, ready to go out. ¡°Stealing?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the house and smiled bitterly. ¡°Is there anything worth stealing in our house?¡± ¡°They especially like the things in your room as souvenirs. For example, your hourglass, alarm clock, and so on. They have all been taken away by them.¡± ¡°I see¡­¡± Fang Yuan was a little speechless. He had thought that his mother felt that the house was too crowded, and since he was not at home, she had discarded all away. But they were actually stolen by thieves. He did not know whether these people were thieves or fanatical fans. ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s not worth much anyway.¡± Fang Yuan then summoned the alloy gryphon. It flapped its wings and appeared by the window. Fang Yuan flew over and rode on it, and shouted to his mother, who had just walked out of the apartment building, ¡°Mom, I¡¯m going to visit my old friend. I¡¯ll definitely be back before dinner.¡± Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s shout, countless people raised their heads. The alloy gryphon¡¯s body was emitting colorful rays of light under the sunlight, looking extremely dazzling. ¡°What kind of pet is this?¡± The people downstairs were all excited. They had never seen a griffin in such a posture. Many passers-by stopped to take photos with their phones and posted them on the internet. ¡°It¡¯s an alloy gryphon! It¡¯s a pet beast of Diamond grade!¡± ¡°Oh my God, my maiden heart is burning. I will get this gryphon no matter how much it costs!¡± ¡°This must be Fang Yuan. Some people said that Fang Yuan got his fame by deceiving the audience. We should let these people see this scene!¡± While the people downstairs were shouting, Fang Yuan and the gryphon had already disappeared from their sight. ¡°What a speed!¡± When they found out, the gryphon had only left a small black dot in the horizon. Even the jet plane might not be as fast. How could Fang Yuan¡¯s body endure such a speed? The first person Fang Yuan visited was the high school principal. He landed on the school playground. This was the address he used to drop off. When the juniors saw the alloy gryphon, their eyes widened. ¡°What grade is this pet?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. I only know that my little eagle is very scared.¡± A little girl was holding a little blue eagle in her arms. It was shivering. Fang Yuan called Xiao Jin back to the pet space. He didn¡¯t want to cause any more unnecessary trouble. ¡°Principal! Principal!¡± The Director of Teaching and Discipline rushed into the principal¡¯s office out of breath. The principal was very angry. ¡°What¡¯s happening? Just say what you have to say.¡± ¡°Principal, Fang Yuan is back¡­¡± The director used all his strength to say out. ¡°What!¡± The principal slammed the table and stood up. He immediately walked to the door of the principal¡¯s office and saw that Fang Yuan was being asked by a group of teachers for autograph and group photo. The principal coughed, then only the teachers dispersed. In the principal¡¯s office. ¡°Fang Yuan, why did you come back from Heavenly Secret Pavilion? I remember that it is a four-year program. Usually, their students will come back once after the four-year training, and then they will never be seen again.¡± The principal said a little awkwardly, as if he had sold Fang Yuan out. ¡°I just brought the progress forward,¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. ¡°Principal, actually, I came to say goodbye to you because you are the person who introduced me to Heavenly Secret Pavilion. To me, you are very important.¡± The principal sighed and said, ¡°Does Heavenly Secret Pavilion have many unspeakable secrets?¡± Fang Yuan nodded. The principal continued, ¡°Then will you come back in the future?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± Fang Yuan was a little hesitant. ¡°Maybe, maybe not.¡± After hearing this, the principal stood up and said with his back facing Fang Yuan, ¡°Are the enemies very strong?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure yet, but it shouldn¡¯t be very weak.¡± The principal¡¯s office was silent for a moment, then the principal suddenly shouted, ¡°Director Liu! Come in for a moment.¡± The director of teaching and discipline immediately ran in and asked, ¡°What are your orders, Principal?¡± ¡°Give our Fiery Feather to Fang Yuan.¡± ¡°What? That¡¯s our school¡¯s most precious treasure!¡± ¡°Take it if I tell you to.¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Not long after, a red bird feather was placed in Fang Yuan¡¯s hand. When Fang Yuan saw the school¡¯s most precious treasure, he could not help but laugh. This was actually one of the materials needed for a fire-type pet to level up to platinum. Unfortunately, people in the real world did not know how to refine upgrade pills, so it was useless to them. It could only be used as equipment to withstand fire-type damage. [ Ding! Fiery Feather detected. Grade: Gold high-grade ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and receive a gold high-grade Fiery Feather. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality, and receive a platinum low-grade Phoenix Feather. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in quantity, and receive a gold high-grade hot feather *100. ] He casually increased the Fiery Feather to the Phoenix Feather and handed over to the principal. The principal¡¯s eyes were filled with shock! Chapter 168 - Power Beyond Reality ¡°How did you do it?¡± The principal and the director rubbed their eyes in disbelief. ¡°My instructor is a phoenix pet beast trainer. He gave it to me,¡± Fang Yuan explained. ¡°Oh, I see.¡± They both heaved a sigh of relief. Actually Fang Yuan had replaced the Fiery Feather with the Phoenix Feather when they did not notice and had even given it to the school as a gift. ¡°We can¡¯t keep up with your pace anymore.¡± The principal understood what Fang Yuan meant and said, ¡°But, Fang Yuan, please remember that our school welcomes your return no matter what.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± The principal and the teachers followed Fang Yuan all the way to the field. Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin and let them have a look. ¡°Is this¡­ is this the pressure of a diamond-grade pet beast?¡± Zhao Ren was also among the teachers. Seeing Zhao Ren, Fang Yuan gave him a smile. ¡°By the way, Fang Yuan, is that you have found a way to evolve your pet? Can you tell me?¡± Zhao Ren looked at Fang Yuan devoutly. This was the power he had been dreaming of. Fang Yuan jumped onto the gryphon and said to Zhao Ren, ¡°If I come back alive, the rules of our world will be completely changed. At that time, your evolution potion will be popular all over the world.¡± ¡°Are you going to change the world?¡± Compared to the evolution potion, this sentence shocked Zhao Ren even more. ¡°And why do you have to die?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t die, Fang Yuan. You have to live well.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s class teacher clenched his fist and said, ¡°There is no opponent you can¡¯t defeat, just like in the border town.¡± The gryphon flapped its wings, and the updraft forced the crowd to step back and cover their eyes with their hands. ¡°Goodbye, Teacher, goodbye, Principal¡­¡± Fang Yuan waved his hand, and then disappeared from the sight of the people together with the gryphons. ¡°Bye bye!¡± The teachers also waved their hands to bid farewell to Fang Yuan. The principal mumbled uneasily, ¡°Did I make a mistake by letting him go to Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± What he was holding in his hand was the pendant on his neck that a diamond was missing. Fang Yuan subsequently came to the Demon City. When he came back, he saw on the TV that there was a demonic wolf pack which the army was fighting against them. ¡°D*mn it, wake up, Frost Giant Ape!¡± A trainer was shaking his pet beast desperately. Its body was full of teeth marks and was in a dying state. On the other side, some pet beasts in the form of bears and tigers were fighting with the demonic wolf pack that was black all over and had red eyes. The number of the wolf pack was too exaggerating. There were as many as 500 of them. ¡°We can¡¯t retreat. There are tens of millions of civilians behind us.¡± A trainer with bandages on his head was still bleeding profusely, he stood on a rock and shouted, ¡°Even if we fall here, we can¡¯t let the demonized wolves break through the defense line and enter the city. There is our future there!¡± These words resonated with everyone present, and their morale rose again. However, it was only the morale of those who were ready to face death. The defending troops here had already been destroyed. When reinforcements arrived from other cities, it was estimated that not a single one of these civilian trainers would be left. At this moment, a group of gryphons surrounded by green light appeared in the sky. The originally despairing expressions of the trainers were now as gloomy as death. No matter how one looked at it, these gryphons were the reinforcements of the demonized wolves. At that moment, white light scattered in the sky. ¡°This is¡­¡± The Holy Light Queen Bee circled back and forth in the sky, dropping spots of white light. It was the most powerful healing spell it possessed ¡ª Spirit Healing Spell. The wounds on the trainers and pet beasts that were surrounded by this light were healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In front of the bandaged man, a young man suddenly appeared. He felt that he looked very familiar, but he couldn¡¯t say out his name. ¡°You guys go back to the city immediately,¡± Fang Yuan said calmly. For some reason, he was full of confidence in the young man in front of him. He immediately shouted, ¡°Everyone, quickly enter the city! We will be saved!¡± Hearing this voice, the pet beasts that were fighting with the demonized wolves started to retreat. The demonized wolves wanted to chase after them, but they were blocked by a wall of wind mercilessly. ¡°Is he back?¡± Before entering the city, a golden-haired youth and his pet beast looked at the Gryphon Legion in the sky and couldn¡¯t help but think of the scene they saw on the train. Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Fang Yuan was relieved. He looked at the demonized wolves with pity. These wolves were shadow wolves, the same breed as his Xiao Ying. However, this group of shadow wolves only had ruthlessness and the desire to kill in them. The biggest Night Demon Wolf was obviously their leader. It roared at the sky, and the demon wolves pounced towards Fang Yuan. However, they couldn¡¯t get close to Fang Yuan at all. A bear with a giant hammer in its hand stood in front of him like a mountain. ¡°I hope you can enjoy peace in your next life.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes. The Storm of Destruction was about to erupt! Fang Yuan no longer needed to gather the monsters, because the wolves were all gathered together. The Storm of Destruction caused by the two diamond-grade alloy gryphons swept the wolves into the sky and then fell to the ground. The Dark Demon Wolf passed through the storm and went behind Fang Yuan. It had wanted to bite him, but it was bitten by a hound whose whole body was burning with flames. Soon, it lost its breath. ¡°It was a one-sided massacre.¡± As they stood at the city gates and watched all of this, the people who were originally in despair suddenly began to sympathize with the demonized wolves. ¡°Is this the youth who saved the Fire country countless times back then?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, he is Fang Yuan.¡± The golden haired youth said with a smile, ¡°He is my friend. He has returned.¡± The demonized wolves had been completely annihilated by the Gryphon Legion within an hour, but the bloody scene did not appear. It was because the pet beasts that had been killed by Fang Yuan had all turned into pet eggs. Fang Yuan rode Xiao Jin to the city gate and said to the man who seemed to be the leader of the trainers. ¡°I¡¯ve already turned the demonized wolves into pet eggs. You guys go clean up the battlefield.¡± Fang Yuan said, and then added, ¡°If possible, I hope you don¡¯t crush them all.¡± Fang Yuan knew that many people lost their pet beasts and family members in this battle¡­ However, not knowing why, he started to think like Huang Ying. These demonized pets actually couldn¡¯t control their actions at all and could only be reduced to killing machines. The culprit of all of this was the ¡®king¡¯ who had created the magic core. However, Fang Yuan could only suggest that as he wasn¡¯t the one who was injured. After saying that, the Gryphon Legion and the pet beasts that appeared out of thin air disappeared. Fang Yuan also flew up to a height of 1,000 meters. Under the shocked gazes of the people, he flew towards the direction of Chuxin Town. Chapter 169 - Enter the Heavenly Secret Pavilion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After the meal, his mother was about to clear the dishes when Fang Yuan held her hand. ¡°Mom, I want to tell you something.¡± His mother smiled and said, ¡°Silly child, there¡¯s no rush. I¡¯ll go wash the dishes first and you watch TV for a while. We¡¯ll talk about it when I come back.¡± Since his mother had already said this, Fang Yuan did not continue to hold her back. Instead, he quietly watched her carry the dishes into the kitchen. After watching TV for a while, his mother still had not come out. He gently came to the kitchen door and saw his mother standing in front of the sink, seemingly wiping away her tears. ¡°Mom¡­¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. His mother probably knew what he wanted to say. Nobody would know about the son better than a mother. ¡°Fang Yuan, will you be like your father, who has never returned?¡± ¡°No, I will definitely come back.¡± Fang Yuan placed his hand on his mother¡¯s shoulder. He couldn¡¯t say anything either. He could only quietly accompany his mother by the side. The next day, before dawn, Fang Yuan set off on his gryphon. This time, he was going to challenge the real Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The teacher and the principal were standing at the school gate, waiting for Fang Yuan. ¡°Are you ready, Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°Yes, we can set off at any time.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. His face was filled with both sadness and excitement. There was an obelisk standing in the open space of the school. This obelisk was not as colorful as the other towers, but was transparent. ¡°Fang Yuan, take this.¡± The principal threw a arcane realm map to Fang Yuan. [ Ding! Arcane realm map detected. Grade: Legendary ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase, and obtain the legendary arcane realm map. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in time, and obtain the legendary arcane realm map. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in the grade of reward, and obtain the legendary arcane realm map. ] ¡°The Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s arcane realm can only be entered for 10 hours at a time. You will be challenging from black iron grade to legendary grade,¡± the principal said. ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry. As long as you reach pass through Heavenly Secret Pavilion within a month, you will become the strongest trainer in the world. After that, it won¡¯t be too late for you to go to the demon world.¡± 10 hours? Although the reward of a hundred times increase was very tempting, Fang Yuan wanted to complete the challenge of Heavenly Secret Pavilion as soon as possible. ¡°Option two, extend the time by a hundred times.¡± The blueprint flickered with light. Fang Yuan walked to the front of the obelisk, raised the blueprint, and then disappeared from the crowd. ¡°With Fang Yuan¡¯s current strength, he should be able to challenge the peak of star brilliance, right?¡± Ouyang Xinglan said worriedly. ¡°Why? Are you afraid that Fang Yuan will beat you up when he comes out? Who told you to be so strict with Fang Yuan?¡± Sima Kaile said with a smile. The principal sat down in front of the obelisk, as if he was waiting for Fang Yuan to come out. [ Ding! Duplicate opening ] After entering the arcane realm, what entered Fang Yuan¡¯s sight was a tower that towered into the clouds. The surroundings were barren, as if he was in an illusion. Fang Yuan walked up the long steps to the front door of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. He did not encounter any traps as he had imagined. The door opened directly. The moment he entered the tower, the door behind him closed automatically. Fang Yuan walked back and tried to open the door, but it didn¡¯t move at all. It seemed that the test was about to begin. As he walked forward step by step, he didn¡¯t have a clue whether it would be heaven or hell. Fang Yuan took a deep breath and felt the pet space. Fortunately, he was still connected to the pet beasts. He thought to himself, ¡°Since I¡¯m here, I¡¯ll just take it as it is.¡± He pushed his wild thoughts out of his mind and carefully observed the situation in the tower. In the center of this level of the tower, there was an arena. Other than that, there was nothing else. Moreover, other than the door behind him, there was no exit. If he was going to challenge, what about the stairs to the second floor? Fang Yuan¡¯s brows were tightly knitted. He was now in a dilemma and could only walk towards the center of the arena. As he approached the arena step by step, suddenly, a strange feeling surrounded him. At this moment, a scene appeared in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. The scene was at Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Countless trainers had challenged each other here. All sorts of divine pet beasts and powerful skills were attacking each other on the stage. Countless trainers had come here, and countless trainers had fallen here. Heavenly Secret Pavilion wasn¡¯t a good place to obtain better equipment, but a real path to becoming stronger. Suddenly, Fang Yuan opened his eyes. The strange feeling just now had disappeared. Now, what he saw was the empty first floor and the arena. At some point in time, an old man in white stood in the arena. He was somewhat similar to the old man among the guardians of the arcane realm, but he looked more energetic. His body was also surrounded by a mysterious white light. The old man looked at Fang Yuan up and down. He smiled and stroked his long beard, saying, ¡°You¡¯re the newcomer who came to challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion? You don¡¯t look old.¡± Fang Yuan looked at the old man in front of him, then bowed and said politely, ¡°I¡¯m a student of the Huang group of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. My name is Fang Yuan. I wonder how the challenge at Heavenly Secret Pavilion is like¡­ to pass the trial?¡± After thinking for a long time, Fang Yuan finally thought of such a description. The old man smiled slightly. ¡°Well mannered, not bad. Nowadays, it¡¯s rare to see a trainer with such a good temper like you.¡± ¡°Do you understand the battle just now?¡± he old man said and then waved his hand. The scene of countless trainers fighting against each other appeared in front of Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes again. ¡°This is¡­¡± Fang Yuan was a little dumbfounded and confused. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t understand what the old man was doing. He was only here to challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Why did he want to show him the battle between the trainers? ¡°Young man, what you saw just now was not an illusion. It actually happened.¡± The old man closed his eyes, it was as if he was recalling the past. ¡°These are the trainers who have entered the pavilion of divination for thousands of years in an attempt to challenge the limits. Heavenly Secret Pavilion will issue a warning to every trainer who enters the challenge to let them know that this is not a game.¡± Fang Yuan actually did not care about the old man¡¯s description at all. What he was concerned about was another problem. ¡°How should I move up? If you want to fight, then start immediately. I¡¯m in a hurry.¡± The old man always had a calm and smiling expression. ¡°Young man, don¡¯t be too hasty. Before challenging Heavenly Secret Pavilion, I have to tell you something that will affect your future growth.¡± Hearing this explanation by the old man, Fang Yuan was finally willing to calm down. He already had a star brilliance intermediate pet beast, so he couldn¡¯t waste any more time here. ¡°Think about the trainers you met along the way. What kind of connection do they have with pet beasts?¡± ¡°Connection?¡± Fang Yuan was puzzled. Chapter 170 - : Black Iron’s Challenge Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°That¡¯s right, Fang Yuan, let me ask you another question. What attributes do pet beasts have?¡± Fang Yuan shook his head. If not for the old man saying that this was related to his future growth, he would have left immediately. ¡°Grass, wind, water, fire, earth, gold, light, darkness, void, superpower¡­¡± Fang Yuan counted all the pet beasts he had encountered, and this seemed to be it. The old man smiled and said, ¡°You have provided a very standard textbook answer, but your understanding of pet beasts and trainers is not enough. It doesn¡¯t matter, as you already have the qualifications to challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion. If you are ready to start, just let me know.¡± ¡°How many levels are there in Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°As no one has challenged the highest level, so I¡¯m not sure.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan could not help but frown. ¡°Hehe, young man, if you don¡¯t dare to barge in, you can go back now.¡± As the old man spoke, the door of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was opened, but there was nothing outside the door. ¡°Stop joking, start the challenge.¡± Fang Yuan gave an affirmative answer. ¡°Heh, not bad,¡± the old man said. ¡°If you had gone out just now, you would have been expelled from Heavenly Secret Pavilion and would never be allowed to enter again. Heavenly Secret Pavilion does not welcome cowards.¡± The old man then began to chant an incantation which he did not understand. The environment on this level was then undergoing a drastic change. The imprint on Fang Yuan¡¯s hand also began to glow. The trainer skill was actually activated on its own. ¡°This!¡± Fang Yuan looked at the glow on his body and revealed an incredulous expression. ¡°How did you manage to awaken my imprint?¡± ¡°The challenge of Heavenly Secret Pavilion has already begun. Next, you will face a battle that will not rest until one of you dies. It is too late for you to regret now, so¡­ get ready for the battle.¡± The old man disappeared in front of Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan took a deep breath. The trial of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was finally about to begin. [ The first trial, challenge 1,000 black iron low-grade trainers at the same time. ] The old man had already disappeared. His words sounded like they were coming from a broadcast. Fang Yuan¡¯s face was a little solemn. Although it was black iron-grade trainer, it was not easy to challenge 1,000 people at the same time. And this was only the first trial. Was he was going to challenge 1,000 star brilliance peak trainers later? Stop joking around. ¡°Fang Yuan, I don¡¯t care what reason you chose to enter heavenly Secret Pavilion. But since you have chosen to challenge me, you can only walk the path to the end. I hope that you can last a longer.¡± Fang Yuan took a deep breath. ¡°Since I have promised the principal and Huang Ying, I will naturally keep my promise. This is my, Fang Yuan¡¯s, principle of life.¡± ¡°Come out! Alloy Gryphon Legion!¡± Sima Kaile had finished refining all the advanced pills and handed them over to Fang Yuan. If they were going to have a group battle, the Gryphon Legion was undoubtedly the best choice! 1,000 black iron-grade trainers appeared in the arena with their pet beats. They were all expressionless like machines. According to the old man, after they lost in Heavenly Secret Pavilion, they would forever become the puppets of the pavilion. Fang Yuan thought that if he did not choose 100 times increase for the time, he would have failed the challenge and been kicked out of Heavenly Secret Pavilion very soon. It was because he had to use the least amount of strength to defeat the enemy for every challenge. Otherwise, when he reached the next level, he would be defeated because of the pet¡¯s injury and the loss of his mental power. Fang Yuan had two special abilities, time and mental strength recovery. This was the greatest capital that Fang Yuan had in his mind to challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion in one go. ¡°At the very least, I have to fight until the peak of star brilliance.¡± The 1,000 trainers summoned their respective pet beasts ¡ª wild wolves, sandworms, engineered bees¡­ There were all kinds of strange creatures. As expected, there were 1,000 trainers, and the pet beasts they used were close to 1,000 kinds. Fang Yuan waved his hand and ordered the Gryphon Legion, ¡°Use Whirlwind and Feather Blades to end the battle quickly!¡± Fang Yuan turned around to avoid being blinded by the Whirlwind. A minotaur rushed over with a hammer in its hand. Just as it was about to hit Fang Yuan, who had his back facing him, a golden alloy gryphon pounced on it and killed it with Feather Blade. Soon, it turned into a black fragment and disappeared into the void. It¡¯s trainer also turned into a black fragment at the same time. As he gradually disappeared, he was actually wearing a smile on his face. At this moment, outside Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the old man looked at the crystal ball in his hand and said with a faint smile, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Fang Yuan to be so powerful. It has somewhat surpassed my imagination of young people.¡± In the first match, Fang Yuan completed the trial in an instant. ¡°Congratulations on completing the trial on the first floor of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± With this voice, the stairs on the second floor of the pavilion appeared on the wall. ¡°Fang Yuan,¡± the old man of Heavenly Secret Pavilion appeared once again, and said to him. ¡°You have two choices now. One is to take the reward on the first floor, and the second is not to take the reward on the first floor. This way, after you challenge on the second floor, you can receive a richer reward, and so on.¡± Just as the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion said this, three treasure chests appeared on the stage. ¡°The winner, please choose from the treasure chests at random. You can also retain the qualification to continue the challenge.¡± ¡°What¡¯s in these treasure chests?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°No comment.¡± The Elder of the pavilion smiled and then disappeared from Fang Yuan¡¯s sight again. ¡°What a weirdo.¡± Fang Yuan muttered to himself. He walked down the arena and the treasure chests disappeared. He chose to continue challenging the higher levels. Based on his gaming experience in his previous life, the higher he went, the more bountiful the rewards would be. With Fang Yuan¡¯s 100 times increase system, it should not be a problem for him to surpass the peak in one go! When he reached the second floor, the layout was the same as the first floor. However, this time, two trainers appeared on the stage at the same time. They were still at the black-iron grade, but their skin was one green and one purple. In other words, they were demons. Needless to say, Fang Yuan walked onto the stage and summoned the platinum-pinnacle Ah Li. The other party activated their own trainer skill. Although the ones they summoned were still the black-iron grade Lightning Piglet and Wind Speed Rabbit, it was clear that their strength was stronger than the 1,000 trainers just now. Their biggest advantage was that they were good at cooperation. After the two pet beasts appeared, the Lightning Pig first launched a lightning attack, while the Wind Speed Rabbit disappeared into the air. They attacked Ah Li from different directions at the same time, a bolt of lightning and a wind blade, one in the front and one at the back, making pincer attack towards Ah Li. This was only the black iron¡¯s second competition. Fang Yuan smiled bitterly in his heart. However, Ah Li had a high resistance to elemental attacks, so it did not need to waste any physical strength. It did not even need to use its skills to easily pounce on the two harmless little monsters on the ground. After dealing with the two black iron high-grade pet beasts, the demon trainer also turned into pieces and disappeared into the air like the trainers just now. Chapter 171 - The Special Ability of Heavenly Secret Pavilion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The treasure chests on the arena and the rooms on the third floor appeared almost at the same time. Outside the tower, the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, who was looking at the crystal ball, smiled and said, ¡°Young people are usually careless because of the smooth start. They don¡¯t understand the true danger of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± In the third match, there were four peak black iron trainers, including one of the ten favorite army trainers. In the fourth match, there were eight peak black iron trainers who had gathered all the types of trainers. In the fifth match, there were 16 trainers! ¡­ In the ninth match, there were 256 trainers! When they reached the ninth match, Fang Yuan thought to himself, if it was not for his circulation skill, he would have used up one-tenth of his mental power by now, and the subsequent battles would not have been able to go on for long. It was no wonder that Huang Ying¡¯s mental energy was so strong. Without a strong mental energy, he would not have been able to last and pass gold! At this moment, the fighting style of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s trainers had become very different. Previously, Fang Yuan could use Ah Li¡¯s elemental immunity or the Armored Bear¡¯s physical immunity. Whenever he found an opportunity, he would use his AOE skills to clear the area. Now, the trainers not only knew how to use the trainer skills, but they could also cover each other. Moreover, the abilities of their pet beasts were more diversified. Ah Li even almost got injured. The 256 demon and human trainers cooperated with each other to attack. Although their trainers were low-grade, they gradually mastered the ability of teamwork. This surprised Fang Yuan ¡ª he didn¡¯t expect that humans and demons could display such powerful strength when they cooperated closely. In the end, Fang Yuan completed the mission of clearing the battlefield with the help of Gale Hound. ¡°Hmm? This kid¡¯s mental power doesn¡¯t look strong, but he can hold on for so long?¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was a bit surprised, but then he zoomed in on the crystal ball and saw the mark on his hand. ¡°This is¡­¡± [ The 10th stage, challenge 500 peak black iron trainers. ] Among the 500 peak black iron trainers, there were even two- pet trainers, which made the arena look a lot more crowded. As the competition officially started, the 500 trainers used all kinds of weapons. This time, they did not only attack Ah Li on the arena, but there were also some wind blades that aiming at Fang Yuan. If he was hit.. Fang Yuan¡¯s body might be directly cut into two pieces. However, Fang Yuan was no longer an inexperienced youth. He easily dodged the not-so-big wind blades and held his breath. Ah Li received Fang Yuan¡¯s order and jumped up. His three tails started to use the latest skill that it had mastered: Continuous Wind Blades. Although it could not compare to the whirlwind of the Gryphon Legion, Ah Li could shoot out three wind blades. Together with the Continuous Wind Blades, he killed nearly a hundred pet beasts in one go. Fang Yuan was attacked again. Ah Li picked up Fang Yuan and threw him onto its body. It used the ¡°listen¡± skill. This time, Fang Yuan had nothing to worry about. This was because none of the pet beasts present could catch up to Ah Li¡¯s speed! After that, Ah Li was like a dancer in the air, stepping through the air. It dodged gracefully among the countless intersecting skills, but none of the skills hit it. ¡°Not bad.¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself, ¡°Interesting. A little kid who just became a freshman can actually coordinate with his pet beasts to reach the master level.¡± Every time Ah Li dodged a round of attacks, it would launch a series of wind blades to counterattack. With a small amount of mental power, it neutralized the opponent¡¯s attacks and then launched a heavy counterattack. The last wind blade cut a demon rat into two pieces. The test of the 10th level was over. The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion that appeared in front of Fang Yuan was still clapping non-stop. ¡°Not bad. Although there¡¯s a qualitative difference between the black iron trainer and pet beast, and your pet beasts, it¡¯s not easy for you to complete the challenge so quickly and easily.¡± Fang Yuan recalled Ah Li back to the pet beast space. Although his mental power could be recovered indefinitely, what he needed to recover now was his physical strength. He temporarily sat down at the edge of the arena and adjusted his breathing. ¡°Each time you challenge ten levels, you can choose a special reward. Come make a choice.¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion raised his hand, and three stone bricks with their backs facing Fang Yuan appeared on the arena. This reminded him of the word ¡°draw card¡±. However, the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion then turned the stone bricks over and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Actually, these ten levels of tests are prepared for black iron trainers, and the same for the rewards.¡± ¡°The first item, combined the pet beasts that you have used, is a fusion skill called ¡®Traceless Water Step¡¯. Its grade is at the peak of black iron.¡± ¡°The second item, combined the pet beast that you have used, is an upgrade material. However, you don¡¯t need it anymore, so I won¡¯t recommend it to you.¡± Hearing this, Fang Yuan could not help but frown. He already had a star brilliance grade pet beast, yet he was giving him a black iron grade item. Was this a scam? However, Fang Yuan also had his own doubts. ¡°You¡¯re saying that in the past, there were black iron grade trainers who came to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to challenge?¡± This was hard to understand because the entrance threshold of the pavilion was at least platinum level. Why would a black iron trainer come here to challenge? The old man smiled faintly. ¡°Of course. The Heavenly Secret Pavilion was not here before, but arcane realm is open to everyone. No matter what level of trainer you are, as long as you have the strength to challenge, then you can get all kinds of rewards.¡± Fang Yuan was puzzled. If he had known Heavenly Secret Pavilion at that time, with the 100 times increase system, he would have been able to walk in to the demon world now. At present, the rewards given by the Elder of the pavilion were all at the peak of black iron. They had no effect on him at all. Even after the 100 times increase, they would only be at the gold grade. No wonder there was a 100 times reward system¡­ If he chose the 100 times reward and the 100 times increase, perhaps the black iron could evolve into a diamond and be of some use to him. However, if that was the case, he would not have enough time. According to the principal, it seemed that he could only challenge Heavenly Secret Pavilion once a year, and he could only enter for 10 hours at a time. Thinking of this, Fang Yuan looked at the time on his watch. After he entered the pavilion, his watch had stopped moving. ¡°Fang Yuan, I don¡¯t know what method you used to cause your time in the pavilion to approach infinity,¡± said the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± But now, Your scroll¡¯s time will no longer be effective. Unless you challenge and clear the level or die, you will never be able to leave this place.¡± ¡°What!¡± Fang Yuan was really shocked this time. This place actually banned the use of bugs. What kind of immortal arcane realm was this? After randomly choosing reward one, Fang Yuan was not in the mood to continue resting. He did not want to waste his life here. Chapter 172 - Despair and Born Again However, was the end of the tower Legendary or Star Brilliance? Did he really have the ability to clear all the levels? This was the first time Fang Yuan experienced the state of despair. ¡°However, Fang Yuan, this is actually a good thing,¡± said the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°Here, you will never grow old or die. If you want to eat something, you can directly summon it from the arcane realm.¡± As he spoke, he conjured a cup of cold sour plum juice and drank it. ¡°I don¡¯t want it.¡± Fang Yuan shook his head. He was not interested in eternal life, he just wanted to leave this lousy place. He then thought of a saying, ¡°Life is precious, but freedom is even more valuable.¡± ¡°Hahaha, I¡¯m just joking with you.¡± The old man said, ¡°You have to think about it. You can train here until you are strong enough to challenge the next level. After all, there is no time limit for you. For example, if you are stuck at diamond intermediate grade, you can go to a diamond intermediate room and train for five years until you can complete the grade. Isn¡¯t that good?¡± ¡°Five years?¡± Fang Yuan felt a chill in his heart. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, time passes very slowly here. If you stay here for eight to ten years, it¡¯s like a few months at most if you stay outside,¡± the Elder said with a smile. ¡°Of course, it might be even shorter. After all, I¡¯ve never left this place before, so I¡¯m not sure of the exact time conversion unit.¡± ¡°I want to continue to challenge upwards.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were filled with determination. How could he waste his time here? It was also time to stop chatting. Starting from the eleventh floor, the size of the arena was at least twice as big as the tenth floor. Fang Yuan felt that it was very strange. From the outside, the tower of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was thick at the bottom and narrow at the top. However, from the inside, it was completely the opposite. This was probably also the magical aspect of the arcane realm. [ At the 11th level, please choose from the following challenge methods. ] { Method 1: Challenge 1,000 bronze-low-grade trainers. ] [ Method 2: Challenge a bronze-peak- grade trainer. ] ¡°As you challenge higher levels, there will be more challenging methods for you to choose. This is also a trial method.¡± For the first time, the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion did not disappear. He wanted to observe Fang Yuan¡¯s battle from a close distance. Fang Yuan nodded. Compared to method one, he preferred method two. Moreover, he had fought all the gold-grade trainers in his high school days, not to mention the bronze-grade trainers. ¡°Method two.¡± After Fang Yuan said that, he suddenly remembered. Wasn¡¯t this something that the system often asked him to do? Could Heavenly Secret Pavilion actually be some kind of system or space? Fang Yuan stood in the middle of the arena. A young man dressed in an ancient style, wearing a green robe, appeared in front of him. He was holding a flute in his hand. Just like the previous trainer, he seemed that he did not know how to speak, nor did he have any emotions. He just looked straight at Fang Yuan. ¡°Let the match begin!¡± Following the announcement that came out of nowhere, the man stood up and summoned his pet beast. Although it was a bronze-peak pet beast, it looked very powerful. However, despite its aura, its strength was still completely suppressed by the diamond-intermediate Gale Hound. Fang Yuan¡¯s current fighting style was to summon a pet once. Previously, when the pet beast legion fought the first level challenge, he felt that he was at a disadvantage because a black iron-low grade trainer only needed a few AOE skills to deal with it. Whether it was speed or strength, the Gale Hound had completely crushed the opponent. ¡­ This way, Fang Yuan advanced all the way to the 59th level where the peak of platinum was. [ At the 59th Level, please choose from the following challenge methods. ] [ Method 1: Challenge 1,000 platinum-peak-grade trainers. ] [ Method 2: Challenge two diamond-low-grade trainers. ] [ Method 3: Challenge one diamond-peak-grade trainer. ] D*mn it. By the time he reached level 59, Fang Yuan could already feel that the speed of his mental energy recovery was no longer as fast as his consumption. He had to master the distribution of his mental energy. If he made the slightest mistake, he would be defeated in the competition and eventually become a puppet of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Fang Yuan held his breath and began to control the distribution of his mental power. ¡°I choose method three: Challenge a diamond-peak-grade trainer!¡± ¡°Really?¡± The old man of the pavilion of divination said, ¡°Are you crazy? I see that your pet is only a diamond-intermediate-grade. Where did you get the courage to challenge a diamond-peak-grade trainer?¡± ¡°If I don¡¯t challenge, what other choice do I have?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t this an open book exam? It¡¯s obvious that two diamond-low-grade trainers are easier to deal with than a diamond-peak-grade trainer, isn¡¯t it?¡± The old man from Heavenly Secret Pavilion said. ¡°Maybe.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes revealed a sharp light. ¡°But I want to become the strongest, and I definitely won¡¯t fall here!¡± The trainer in front of him was a demon from the Green Tribe, and there was a bright moon between his brows. He seemed to have a high status, at least he was not a small fly. ¡°As a human, you actually dare to challenge me. Your courage is commendable.¡± He actually spoke, which made Fang Yuan very surprised. ¡°Can you understand what I¡¯m saying?¡± During this period of time, other than talking to the pet beasts and the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, Fang Yuan almost had no communication with anyone else. ¡°Of course I can, but I¡¯m also driven by an inexplicable power, so don¡¯t expect me to go easy on you.¡± The demon trainer smiled and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, right? Let¡¯s fight!¡± Since he had reached this level, it was not good for Fang Yuan to hide his strength anymore. He had always kept his trump card. ¡ª¡ª the Lotus Flower Giant Lizard at the peak of diamond! ¡°Lutania?¡± The demon trainer laughed. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to see the legendary pet beast, but its level is still very low.¡± Then, he looked at Fang Yuan. ¡°Fang Yuan, if you can defeat me, I will give you the demonic light. It can let Lutania directly reach the star brilliance grade,¡± the demon trainer said. He seemed to be excited. Fang Yuan glanced at the old man of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The old man of the pavilion smiled and said, ¡°After reaching the peak of diamond, they will have their own will. I can¡¯t control their behavior. As for the reward, if he is willing to give it to you, of course, you can accept it.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan also became excited. This was not an ordinary reward. The demon trainer was also a warrior of the Green tribe. Of course, he used a thunder-type pet beast. Moreover, it was the Black Thunder Beast that Fang Yuan had seen before! ¡°Let¡¯s fight¡­¡± This battle lasted for five hours. Fang Yuan used the Lotus Flower Giant Lizard to stall the opponent, and then used the combined attack of Ah Li and the Gale Hound to kill the opponent. ¡°I lost¡­¡± The demon trainer didn¡¯t look dejected. Instead, he looked free and easy. He gathered all his strength in his hand and formed a black magic ring, which he threw into Fang Yuan¡¯s hand. Chapter 173 - Sensing Danger! Demon Invasion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Ding! Demonic Radiance detected. Grade: Peak diamond. ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain the peak diamond Demonic Radiance. ] [ Second, proceed with the 100 times increase in quality and obtain the star brilliance-low-grade Moon of of Demon God. ] What was the difference between the Moon of Demon God and the peak Demonic Radiance? Fang Yuan chose the Moon of Demon God and handed it to the Lotus Giant Lizard. When it saw this thing, its eyes widened. A long-lost power surged from its heart¡­ [ Scientific name: Lutania (in its infancy) ] [ Bloodline: Lutania ] [ Quality: Star brilliance high-grade ] [ Attributes: Grass, earth, reptile ] [ Positioning: Attack, control ] Its name had changed. It was no longer the Lotus Giant Lizard, but the name of its ancestor, Lutania! Its body had grown to the size of a mountain giant. In front of it, Fang Yuan was of the size of a stone. ¡°Fang Yuan, I think I remember something,¡± Lutania said in a low voice. ¡°I feel that the demon world is calling me. It seems that I grew up there¡­¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan nodded excitedly. ¡°We will return to the demon world soon, and you will find your answer.¡± Fang Yuan did not put it back into his space, because the upcoming war undoubtedly would require its performance. After the next five days, Fang Yuan actually challenged: [ At the 71th level, please choose the following challenge methods ] [ Method 1: Challenge 1,000 star brilliance low-grade trainers ] [ Method 2: Challenge two star brilliance peak-grade trainers ] [ Method 3: Challenge a king intermediate-grade trainer ] [ Method 4: Challenge a king peak-grade trainer and directly advance to level 80 ] By this time, Fang Yuan was already exhausted. ¡°Take a rest first,¡± the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion said, ¡°It¡¯s okay, there¡¯s no hurry.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan lay down on the stage and put Lutania back into the pet space. No wonder the arcane realm grew bigger as they went higher. The size of the pet beasts would increase with their grades. ¡°By the way, I should have accumulated a lot of rewards.¡± The old man nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. You have accumulated 70 treasure chests. Do you want to exchange for the rewards now?¡± ¡°What are the contents?¡± The old man summoned the three stone tablets. ¡°Reward 1: According to the situation of using the pet, reward one set of materials to evolve to diamond peak-grade.¡± ¡°Reward 2: According to the situation of using the pet, reward five sets of fusion skills.¡± ¡°Reward 3: According to the situation of using the pet, reward one set of materials to evolve to the highest grade.¡± ¡°Can only choose one at a time?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°Yes, but don¡¯t worry, the things you choose are definitely the best,¡± the old man said happily. It had been a very long time that he had not seen anyone go this far. ¡°I choose evolution materials.¡± A material treasure chest landed in front of Fang Yuan. After Fang Yuan touched it, the 100 times increase system was indeed activated. Then¡­ Ah Li licked Fang Yuan¡¯s face. Fang Yuan had fallen asleep unknowingly just now. He now had 10 star brilliance grade pet beasts! Ah Li was the most exaggerated. It had directly evolved from three tails to nine tails. It already having the appearance that he had in the illusion when he had awakened the imprint. Xiao Lie had evolved into Fire Magic Hound Xiao Jin and Xiao Yin had evolved into diamond gryphon. The feathers on their bodies were no longer metal, but the hardest element in this world ¡ª diamonds! Pick had also evolved into a Little Thunder Beast, and it no longer looked like a mouse¡­ Fang Yuan could no longer support so many pet beasts appearing outside. He hurriedly summoned them back to the pet space and asked, ¡°Old grandpa of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, I would like to know how to raise my mental power.¡± ¡°Hehehe, you finally thought of mental power,¡± said the old man from Heavenly Secret Pavilion. ¡°But don¡¯t call me old grandpa. You can call me Xiao Tian or Lao Tian.¡± ¡°Okay, Grandpa Xiao Tian.¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. He had never been so relieved. Peak of star brilliance¡­ As long as he could cross this peak, he was confident that he could defeat anyone in the real world! This was because the king-grade and legendary-grade pet beats only appeared in textbooks. No one had actually seen their existence. If there were, they were also in the demon world. ¡°Actually, other than being the guardian of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, I have another identity.¡± The old man suddenly changed his clothes, revealing his muscular body just like the principal. ¡°Next, I¡¯m going to train your will. It might be very difficult, so you have to be prepared.¡± ¡°How long will the training be?¡± ¡°Three years.¡± ¡°Then¡­ what about the outside world?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure. Maybe three days, maybe three hours¡­¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yuan had no choice but to accept the reality. It was impossible for him to continue with the challenge now. Even it was just controlling Lutania, it was already difficult for him to move forward. If he did not become stronger, there was no way for him to command his pet beasts to fight together. Then, he would also lose his greatest asset as a trainer. ¡°I want to become stronger!¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s head hurt a little, but he shouted at the ceiling. ¡°You will.¡± The old Man of Heavenly Secret Pavilion stroked his beard with a smile, just like when they first met. And now, at Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡­ Five days after Fang Yuan entered the tower. ¡°Principal, I feel that something is wrong.¡± Ouyang Xinglan stood up from the ground and saw many birds and pet beasts flying in the sky, as if they were stimulated by something. The other three teachers made the same judgment. They summoned their strongest pets. ¡°Sit down.¡± The principal sighed. ¡°We are not their match. They felt the threat coming, so they reacted violently.¡± ¡°Threat?¡± Huang Ying looked at the principal and said, ¡°Principal, are you referring to Fang Yuan?¡± ¡°Hahahaha.¡± The principal laughed towards the sky. He stood up. For the first time, his pet beast appeared in front of people. ¡°Before Fang Yuan comes back, we will protect this world for him!¡± ¡°If you think you can¡­¡± a man in helmet and heavy armor was sitting on an old dragon! He was the most elite warrior of the demon race. Huang Ying¡¯s eyes were wide open because he saw Mr. Xiahou among the elite warriors of the demon race. His eyes were wet. However, the other party didn¡¯t show any emotion. The white tiger under him was dyed purple due to demonization. ¡°Tell me the way to enter the arcane realm. I will give you a chance to serve the King,¡± the demon warrior said coldly. The ones who answered him were the White Dragon, Phoenix, Mysterious Turtle, and Lion, the four star brilliance grade pets. Chapter 174 - Fang Yuan’s Determination After the three years of training, Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were determined, but there was no smile on his face. ¡°No, my mental power has already reached the star brilliance grade, but I¡¯m still not a match for a king-grade trainer. I¡­¡± Fang Yuan stood up ¡°Teacher.¡± The Elder from Heavenly Secret Pavilion walked over from the void. He looked at Fang Yuan with the same heavy gaze. In the past three years, the Elder from the pavilion and Fang Yuan got along and had developed deep feelings for each other. He had taught Fang Yuan the method to train his mental power. He could feel that Fang Yuan¡¯s mental power was very much stronger than it was three years ago. However, Fang Yuan was a bit lost now. No matter how much trouble Fang Yuan had encountered in the past, he could always find a solution. As long as Fang Yuan was given a little more time, he would definitely be able to break through to the king realm, or even reach the legendary realm. However, the current Fang Yuan was going to challenge the king realm now. Ever since the elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion came to this world, he couldn¡¯t remember how long it had been that no one had reached this realm. Fang Yuan¡¯s progress was unprecedented and shocking. He had thought that no one would ever reach this realm. ¡°Fang Yuan, I hope that you can cultivate for a period of time. I can even give you some materials and treasures to raise your pet beast¡¯s level,¡± said the Elder of the pavilion. Fang yuan replied, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Teacher. I have to start challenging the tower now.¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°This is the map that the principal gave me when I entered Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Although I have already lost contact with the outside world, the connection of my mental power will not be broken.¡± Fang Yuan sighed. ¡°They might be already in danger.¡± ¡°You can¡¯t save them even if you go out now. If I were you, I would train in the tower for another forty to fifty years. By then, I would have the ability to break through all the towers in one go.¡± The old man from Heavenly Secret Pavilion sighed. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you know that you have great potential? If you rush to challenge now, you might fall in the pavilion and lose the ability to challenge the legendary realm.¡± Fang Yuan was a bit lost. He shook his head. ¡°Although I have been following the training methods of Teacher, I still feel that I can¡¯t break through this bottleneck. I think that I might need to challenge to break through it.¡± ¡°Child, the most useless things in this world are determination, belief, and the related. If your strength is insufficient, the enemy won¡¯t care how much determination and what belief you have.¡± ¡°I will win. I want to challenge the 71st Level now!¡± Fang Yuan was a little excited. The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion shook his head slightly. ¡°Alright, if you really want to challenge it, I won¡¯t stop you. However, I want to ask you a few things first.¡± ¡°Do you know who your next opponent, a peak star brilliance trainer, is?¡± The Elder of the pavilion asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± Fang Yuan was also a little curious. If this world really had such a powerful trainer and pet beast, why was he trapped in Heavenly Secret Pavilion? However, Fang Yuan instantly thought of a person. It was the demon guard who saved Vera that he saw. ¡°Do you know why the demon race lost the war between the demon race and the human race?¡± Fang Yuan shook his head. This was not history that he could understand at all. Perhaps this was the so-called the truth of history that his father left home in search of. He just did not expect that this history would be left in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The old man of the pavilion raised his hand and three stone slabs floated up on the stage. He said to Fang Yuan, ¡°I¡¯ll give you three rewards now.¡± ¡°The first is to upgrade your academy uniform to the peak of star brilliance.¡± ¡°The second is to upgrade the number of soul stones on your nine-tailed Spirit Fox to star brilliance high-grade.¡± ¡°The third is 10 life-healing potions. After the pet used in battle consumes it, it will recover to its best condition.¡± ¡°You make the choice.¡± The Elder of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion closed his eyes. ¡°This is your reward for being the first person to clear the 79th level in a thousand years.¡± There was such a good thing? Fang Yuan thought to himself, these things already looked very luxurious. If he were to use the hundred times increase system, wouldn¡¯t he be almost invincible? However, to Fang Yuan, the star brilliance peak academy uniform could only be used in the arcane realm. He remembered that the principal had told him that in the devil world, no trainer¡¯s or pet beast¡¯s equipment could be used. It seemed to be the rule of their space. For him, he could only choose the third option. [ Ding! Holy Spirit Medicine detected. Grade: Star brilliance ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtaiintremediate graden a star brilliance low-grade Holy Spirit Medicine *10 ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and obtain a star brilliance intermediate-grade Holy Spirit Medicine *10 ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in quantity and obtain a star brilliance low-grade Holy Spirit Medicine *1000 ] Since the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had already told Fang Yuan that as once it was used, the user would be able to immediately recover to his best condition, this grade was probably only to increase the user¡¯s level. The highest grade he currently possessed was only star brilliance intermediate-grade. After weighing the pros and cons, Fang Yuan chose the third option, increasing the quantity. Taking advantage of the fact that the old man did not notice, he put all of them into his spatial pocket. ¡°Fang Yuan, aren¡¯t you going to choose Soul Stones?¡± The Elder from the pavilion said, ¡°I specially selected these rewards, but you actually chose the lowest grade.¡± ¡°My Teacher told me that in the demon world, the trainer¡¯s and pet beast¡¯s equipment can not be used, so I chose the Holy Spirit Medicine.¡± Fang Yuan answered truthfully. ¡°Sigh, if you really can¡¯t beat them, using the Holy Spirit Medicine will only delay their time to kill you.¡± ¡°Alright, this is your choice, I have no right to interfere.¡± The old man from Heavenly Secret Pavilion shook his head slightly. ¡°Fang Yuan, are you ready to challenge the 79th level now? You have to know what kind of strong enemy you will be facing next.¡± ¡°Can I challenge one level the first? If I can¡¯t win, then I can cultivate again.¡± ¡°Of course you can.¡± The Elder stood where he was and looked back at Fang Yuan. ¡°Then let¡¯s start the competition.¡± At this time, only Fang Yuan was left on the stage. The mechanical voice sounded again, ¡°Please choose the method to challenge the level¡­¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes and said, ¡°I choose to challenge a king peak-grade trainer.¡± He knew that this character who was about to come out would definitely be a monster. The trainers who were qualified to enter Heavenly Secret Pavilion were all one in ten thousands. At this time, a man who was two and a half meters tall appeared in front of Fang Yuan. He was well-built and had a confident smile on his face. ¡°I thought it¡¯s the old man Shangguan who has come here. I didn¡¯t expect it to be a little brat,¡± he said with a smile and a trace of disdain in his tone. ¡°The principal is in the outside world right now. He should be fighting with the demons,¡± Fang Yuan said coldly. ¡°And I want to defeat you quickly and then meet them.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± His smile turned cold. ¡°Have the demons invaded the human world again?¡± ¡°Again?¡± ¡°If you defeat me, I¡¯ll tell you.¡± He stretched out his hand toward the sky and shouted, ¡°Come out, Rattlesnake!¡± Chapter 175 - Challenge the Limit [ Scientific name: Rattlesnake (adult) ] [ Bloodline: Rattlesnake ] [ Rarity: Peak king ] [ Attributes: Lightning, wind, reptilian ] The other attributes didn¡¯t need to be looked at anymore. Fang Yuan recalled the rattlesnake he had fought with in the arcane realm of lightning. It was a peak platinum pet beast that Ah Li and Pick together barely defeated. But now, he was facing a peak king beast that was just one step away from stepping into the legendary divine beast. ¡°Young man, where¡¯s your pet beast?¡± ¡°Come out, Lutania!¡± After this period of training, Fang Yuan could now summon Lutania without feeling dizzy. His mental strength was now strong enough. ¡°Peak star brilliance?¡± He looked at Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beast in disbelief. ¡°Are you looking down on me?¡± ¡°No, I respect you very much, but I don¡¯t have a higher grade pet.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s expression was also uncomfortable, because this was really his limit. He knew that Lutania was very powerful, but facing a pet that was a whole level above, he did not know how competent it was. ¡°Nero, I have something for you.¡± Fang Yuan made up his mind and took out the peak diamond magic core from the space. This was the highest level magic core he had. ¡°Do you want me to demonize me?¡± Nero smiled. ¡°Yes, because we have no way out.¡± A wave of demonized aura was ignited from Lutania¡¯s body. Its aura was clearly visible, and it was actually on par with the body of the rattlesnake. ¡°Demon?¡± At the sight of the demonized Lutania, the originally cheerful man changed into an angry expression. ¡°You¡¯re actually a d*mn demon. I¡¯m going to destroy you now!¡± ¡°Rattlesnake, use Thunder Explosion Bomb.¡± The rattlesnake in the sky sensed its master¡¯s summon. It turned into a huge ball of thunder and lightning, randomly exploding and shooting out electric plasma in all directions. Moreover, it did not give anyone any time to react. Almost instantly, it completed the deployment of its skill. The huge body of Lutania blocked in front of Fang Yuan away from the flowing plasma. Fang Yuan smiled and said, ¡°Rattlesnake, if I can defeat you once, I can defeat you twice!¡± ¡°Come out! Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox, Extreme Electric Pick!¡± Fang Yuan summoned three peak star brilliance pet beasts at the same time and gave them the demonization buff¡­ ¡°Failure means death.¡± The old man who was watching the battle from the top of Heavenly Secret Pavilion could even feel the tower shaking. What a powerful battle this was¡­ He thought that Fang Yuan would definitely lose, but he didn¡¯t expect that he would actually take the opponent¡¯s attack head-on and even cause the rattlesnake in the sky to enter a bitter battle. This battle lasted for a full 10 days, which was even longer than the battle with the peak star brilliance trainer. Fang Yuan had actually defeated the peak king-grade pet beast with the peak star brilliance-grade pet beast! The tall man looked at his rattlesnake in disbelief. It had gradually lost consciousness. It could withstand lightning attacks from all directions, but not within its body. Just like the way it defeated the rattlesnake back then, Fang Yuan remembered this move after failing to break the rattlesnake¡¯s defense despite using all the methods. The rattlesnake let out a mournful howl and gradually fell from the sky. Its body also turned into pieces, ready to disappear into space. The man said, ¡°So powerful., as expected of the demon race.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a demon,¡± Fang Yuan said indifferently. ¡°I just borrowed their power.¡± ¡°The power of the demon race is the power of a curse. After you use it, you will become addicted.¡± The man looked a little sad. ¡°Unfortunately, the world is still ruled by the demon race in the end.¡± ¡°You promised me that if you lost, you would tell me the truth of the history.¡± ¡°Humph, although you are a hateful demon, I will not cheat you. I am different from you.¡± He took out a scroll and threw it into Fang Yuan¡¯s hand before his body completely disappeared. When the scroll was in his hand, Fang Yuan¡¯s system seemed to feel a call. [ Ding! Pet Beast Guide detected. Grade: Peak king ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain the peak king Pet Beast Guide ] [ Second, proceed with the 100 times increase in quality and obtain the legendary Pet Beast Guide ] The use of this guide was self-evident. With this thing, there would be no pet in this world that Fang Yuan could not recognize. Option two, the legendary Pet Beast Guide. But when Fang Yuan held the legendary Pet Beast Guide, a memory entered his mind: ¡°There are actually no demons in this world, or perhaps everyone is a demon.¡± ¡°As long as one has used the power of the demon, one will become his captive.¡± ¡°I¡¯m strong enough. I¡¯m just trying for once. I won¡¯t be controlled by them!¡± ¡°No, Wen Yao!¡± ¡°Ah!!¡± Fang Yuan covered his head. He almost fainted from the pain. ¡°Who is this person?¡± Fang Yuan looked at the cold sweat on his palm. The man in his memory was much stronger than the peak king trainer he had just challenged. The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion appeared and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Take a rest and choose your reward.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yuan nodded. ¡°I need to replenish my mental power now.¡± In the battle just now, Fang Yuan had used up 30 bottles of Holy Spirit Medicine in one go, and he had used up all to defeat the rattlesnake. Unfortunately, the Elder from Heavenly Secret Pavilion did not know and he thought that Fang Yuan only had 10 bottles of Holy Spirit Medicine at most. ¡°What is the reward content of this level?¡± ¡°Fang Yuan, before choosing the reward, I want to ask you something,¡± the old man of the pavilion said with a serious expression. ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°If one day, you can only keep one pet, which one will you choose?¡± Fang Yuan stood there in a daze. After this period of training, as Fang Yuan was getting closer and closer to the peak of strength, he also felt something. The stronger a pet beast¡¯s ability was, the stronger its offensive ability would be. Moreover, it seemed that it would gradually become hostile towards its companions. At first, Fang Yuan thought that it was because of the use of the magic core, but now it seemed that it was not the case. ¡°I will not favor any pet beast. If they really want to fight for the so-called ¡®king¡¯ position, I will destroy it with my own hands.¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes revealed a determined look. ¡°Although I admire your courage.¡± The elder of the pavilion sighed, but he did not continue. Instead, he flipped the stone slab on the stage over. ¡°Fang Yuan, choose one of your pet beasts. We will evolve it to king-grade. Although it is not at the peak, it is not far from becoming the strongest trainer.¡± He closed his eyes and thought about all the pet beasts he had. Finally, he said to the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, ¡°I choose the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox.¡± Chapter 176 - The Realm of Trainer Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The person in front of him was a demon expert. The peak of the King realm could be said to be perfect. It was the supreme realm, and they were the Star Brilliance, the King. and the Legendary. In fact, after advancing to the King realm, the rank was no longer important. The pet beasts and trainers above the King realm were just titles. They were used to refer to opponents that humans couldn¡¯t rank. As for Legendary, they could only be reached after the pet beasts had completed their final evolution. The Elder of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion had never seen a Legendary pet beast before. And he had never seen a Legendary pet beast at the 89th level as well as a level above! A trainer who could reach this level would have a mental strength that had reached the level of whatever they had thought of, the pet beast would immediately react. Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beast had also reached the King realm. The Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox. It was an elf that had gathered all nine elements, and its speed and explosive power had reached the limit of a pet beast. At this moment, Fang Yuan¡¯s mental strength could display its true strength! Facing the superior race of the demon race ¡ª the Scarlet Tribe, Fang Yuan wasn¡¯t at a disadvantage. Under the continuous attacks of the Scarlet Flame Demon, the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox entered the water element state. it wasn¡¯t in a hurry to attack. Instead, it methodically responded to its attacks. ¡°Impossible, human.¡± The expert of the Scarlet Tribe revealed an expression of disbelief. He couldn¡¯t believe that a peak king Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox was actually more terrifying than his Scarlet Flame Demon. This demon expert had once become the king of the demon world. If not the appearance of that person, he wouldn¡¯t have ended up to his current state. In order to defeat the new ¡°King¡±, he came to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to challenge, but he didn¡¯t expect to be defeated here. At that time, his enemy was his own mirror image! This human in front of him was actually about to defeat him¡­ Seeing the nine-tailed energy ball containing nine types of elemental attacks gradually approaching the Flame Demon¡¯s heart, he closed his eyes in despair. This battle only lasted for five days. Fang Yuan found a flaw in his opponent¡¯s body and seized the opportunity to kill him. As the battle ended, Fang Yuan also vomited a mouthful of blood. Such a long period of high mental energy consumption made his body feel very uncomfortable. The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion appeared and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Fang Yuan, you¡¯re the first person I¡¯ve seen who has reached this level. Do you still want to continue the challenge?¡± ¡°Of course,¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. During his time in Heavenly Secret Pavilion, Fang Yuan¡¯s daily work was to fight, cultivate, and obtain rewards. In the outside world, less than three days had passed, but Fang Yuan, who was in Heavenly Secret Pavilion, had already experienced a full 10 years. After he finished speaking, he lay down on the arena. He couldn¡¯t see the end of the arena anymore. It was as if he was a separate world by itself. The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion showed three treasures in front of Fang Yuan: ¡°The first: Choose a pet beast and evolve it to the king grade.¡± ¡°The second: Choose a pet beast and activate its potential bloodline.¡± ¡°The third: Revive a pet beast that you have lost.¡± ¡°Can you revive a pet beast?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes gradually closed. He no longer had the strength to open them. He had originally wanted to ask the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion about the effect, but after he fainted, the Elder of the pavilion tacitly agreed that Fang Yuan had chosen the third reward. ¡°You are really a simple youth,¡± the Elder said with a smile. Fang Yuan resolutely chose an option that was practically useless to him in future battles. Activating the bloodline of his pet beast would give him a certain chance to evolve his pet beast to legendary-level. However, the power of this bloodline was too powerful, and not every pet beast could experience such suffering. After a long battle, Fang Yuan¡¯s goal had changed from leaving Heavenly Secret Pavilion to redemption. It wasn¡¯t just the demon race¡­ During the battle in the pavilion, Fang Yuan saw countless souls bound by Heavenly Secret Pavilion. They were once experts who wanted to change the world. In the end, they still fell in this tower. Starting from the diamond, every time Fang Yuan defeated an opponent, he would obtain a set of the opponent¡¯s memories. Some were related to the techniques of the trainers, and some were related to the history of the pet beast world. At this moment, Fang Yuan already possessed the memories of all the trainers in the past two thousand years. The more he knew, the more Fang Yuan understood the gap between him and the ¡°King¡±. Even with his current strength, there was probably no one in Heavenly Secret pavilion¡¯s academy who was comparable to him. He believed that even if the principal brought Ouyang Xinglan and the four teachers together, it would be impossible for them to defeat him. However, he clearly knew that he was absolutely no match for the king. He couldn¡¯t even defeat the three soldiers under the king¡¯s banner. This made Fang Yuan have no choice but to continue moving forward. Fang Yuan woke up and was licked awake by a wolf. ¡°It¡¯s so itchy, Xiao Ying.¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. He recalled the scene before he fainted. That was one of the three gifts that the elder of the pavilion had chosen for him ¡ª resurrecting the dead pet beast. The other two options didn¡¯t make any difference to Fang Yuan. Whether it was a king-grade pet beast or its bloodline, it wouldn¡¯t be of any help to Fang Yuan in his next challenge. The Shadow Wolf was at the peak platinum grade, so even if he kept the shadow wolf by his side, there wouldn¡¯t be any side effects. ¡°Fang Yuan, we¡¯ve already reached the 90th level. You¡¯ve already defeated a peak king-grade trainer. Next, you¡¯ll directly enter the Legendary realm.¡± The elder from the secret pavilion asked, ¡°Do you want to challenge now? Or do you want to train for a while more?¡± ¡°Train?¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°Is there anything else worth training?¡± Right now, Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beast¡¯s level and quality were close to the peak. However, he didn¡¯t have any training methods or materials, so his pet¡¯s quality could only stop here. At this moment, Fang Yuan¡¯s strongest pet beast was the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox, which was at king-intermediate, as well as the peak star brilliance Lutania. The other pet beasts were only star brilliance-high, so they could not support the current battle at all. The Elder of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was also speechless. He suddenly realized that he actually had human feelings. He could not bear to let Fang Yuan continue the challenge, and he hoped that the boy would stay at the 89th level and accompany him. It was because he knew what it would mean if he succeeded in challenging the 90th level. ¡°Alright, then you have to be prepared.¡± Seeing that Fang Yuan did not have the slightest intention of backing down, he sighed. In fact, he could understand Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughts. Fang Yuan had no way out. He had no choice but to win. The path to the 90th level was opened. This time, he did not appear on the far side of the wall, but on the top of the arena. It was like a beam of light falling from the sky. ¡°Stand on it.¡± The Elder of the pavilion said with a serious expression, ¡°After you stand on it, you will meet the final challenge.¡± Fang Yuan rode on the Shadow Wolf and ran into the halo. ¡°Fang Yuan, you have to survive.¡± Seeing their figures disappear into the halo, he revealed a lonely expression. Chapter 177 - Challenge the Peak Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After entering the halo, Fang Yuan and the Shadow Wolf came to a magical world. This place was not like the world below. It was just a bare arena and an boundless sky. The birds were singing sang and the flowers were fragrant, the sky was blue. It was like heaven. ¡°Is this¡­ an illusion?¡± Fang Yuan looked at his hand and said to Shadow Wolf, ¡°Use Howling.¡± The howling of Shadow Wolf not only had a certain probability of scaring off the enemy, it also had the effect of breaking the illusion. However, other than the birds that were startled and flew around, the scene did not change at all. ¡°Impolite brat.¡± A man who was sitting on a bull and holding a flute appeared in front of Fang Yuan. ¡°What are you screaming here?¡± Fang Yuan could feel a strong mental power from him. Now, Fang Yuan could feel the mental power fluctuation without waiting for the man to summon his pet beast. ¡°Are you¡­ a human trainer?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. In the tower of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, every soul bound by the tower would attack the challenger at the first moment. However, the man in front of him was indifferent, which surprised Fang Yuan. ¡°I¡¯m not a human, nor am I a trainer.¡± The man got off the back of the bull and asked Fang Yuan, ¡°How did you come to this arcane realm?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to challenge the 90th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°Heavenly Secret Pavilion?¡± The man looked puzzled, as if he had never heard of it. ¡°Then can you tell me who you actually are?¡± ¡°I am the guardian of this arcane realm.¡± After Fang Yuan¡¯s reminder, he seemed to remember something¡­ holding his head¡­ ¡°Human?¡± ¡°Ever since 30,000 years ago God told me to wait here, I have forgotten my mission,¡± he said calmly after a splitting headache. ¡°Are you the challenger? I have been waiting for you for 30,000 years.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°Why? Are you a little disappointed to see me?¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m not disappointed. Whether it¡¯s humans, demons, or even gods.¡± He calmly walked over, ¡°As long as I complete my mission, I can go and rest. In order to wait for you, I¡¯ve already built this world into a paradise during these long 30,000 years. Isn¡¯t it ironic?¡± ¡°How can that be?¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°From this point, I admire you very much.¡± From his words and actions, Fang Yuan could feel a peaceful aura. Just like those arcane realm guardians he met when he accepted the arcane realm¡¯s certification, the aura was calm and peaceful. However, Fang Yuan could also feel the differences between them. The man in front of him, his mental power had definitely surpassed any of his previous opponents. A legendary grade trainer! That was a grade that did not have any levels. As long as one surpassed the peak of the king grade, they were all legendary. Even legendary had a difference in strength. Moreover, he was the guardian of the 90th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. According to the Elder of the pavilion, he was the ultimate boss of this tower. Compared to any opponent he had met before, he was only strong and not weak! ¡°Human, you can start your attack now. You can use any method you think of,¡± he said with a smile. ¡°Can I take a look at your pet beast?¡± Fang Yuan saw him standing in the same place, not knowing what to do. ¡°What you see with your naked eyes are all my pet beasts.¡± ??? When Fang Yuan didn¡¯t understand what he meant, a crack appeared on the ground. Then, Fang Yuan and he were pulled into the alternate dimension. ¡°Is this the way the demons fight?¡± Fang Yuan recalled the learnings he received when he was trained by the demons. ¡°No, it¡¯s not the demons,¡± The guardian said. ¡°I¡¯m different from the demons. The demons use the power of space, and my power is time.¡± ¡°At your current level, I don¡¯t think you can understand it. Your level is too low, and it¡¯s impossible for you to defeat me. In order to make the game a little more fun, I want me to stimulate your potential.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Fang Yuan was also curious about his strength. ¡°Yes. However, human, I won¡¯t show mercy, but I can play with you for a while within the limits of my rules.¡± ¡°Human, make your move.¡± The guardian still did not summon any pet beast, but he was in an attacking posture. Fang Yuan, not showing any politeness, summoned the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox. ¡°Ah Li, attack the man in front of you with all your strength. Don¡¯t worry about the energy consumption.¡± Ah Li received the order and immediately transformed into the Spirit Fox state. It gathered the nine types of energy and formed a unique energy ball. Then, it shot at the man in the distance at an extremely fast speed. As long as it hit the guardian, Fang Yuan believed that he would at least be seriously injured. ¡°Too slow,¡± the guardian said without changing his expression. At that instant, a pair of black hands appeared out of nowhere and held the energy ball. There was no explosion, nor was there any energy fluctuation, The energy ball disappeared into thin air. ¡°It¡¯s my turn.¡± The guardian smiled slightly. The pair of hands that came out of the alternate dimension clenched their fists and waved at Ah Li. However, he did not succeed. Instead, he hit a mountain. No, he only hit the mountain-like, tall and hard Lutania. Lutania coughed up a mouthful of blood. He smiled at Fang Yuan and said, ¡°How did you get yourself into trouble with an opponent of this level again?¡± ¡°But it looks like you¡¯re also very happy.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°I might have been influenced by you, you little brat.¡± As Ludania spoke, he threw Fang Yuan and Shadow Wolf onto himself so that it would be easier for him to protect them. ¡°Lutania, you might hurt your human friends,¡± the guardian said to Lutania. He was telling his opponent that he would not attack humans. ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Fang Yuan replied. ¡°I¡¯m their trainer. Of course, I have to fight alongside them.¡± Shadow Wolf also howled. At this moment, the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox also jumped onto Lutania¡¯s body. Although it could not speak, Fang Yuan could see the meaning in its eyes. ¡°Fight side by side until death.¡± ¡°Good. I admire you a little.¡± The guardian smiled. ¡°Then I¡¯ll let you see my pet beast¡¯s true body.¡± Fang Yuan already had a complete pet atlas. When the pet walked out of the alternate dimension, he was stunned. That was¡­ The spirit body known as Gaia, which was also the god who controlled time mentioned in the history books. He had thought that it was just a legend. No, this legendary pet was really a legend. ¡°Human, are you ready?¡± ¡°Of course.¡± This was the first time Fang Yuan had seen a legendary pet. Apart from fear, there was actually a trace of joy in his heart. To be able to see a legend was in itself a lucky thing. This battle was earth-shattering. Chapter 178 - Return to Reality Outside the obelisk of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Huang Ying¡¯s Phoenix had already been shattered. It had already lost the chance to revive. ¡°Mr. Xiahou, you said that you would protect Heavenly Secret Pavilion no matter what. What has changed you?¡± Huang Ying was struggling to support his body and was questioning Xiahou, who had already become a demon. Xiahou did not answer. Instead, he commanded his Xuanming warrior to launch the final attack on the Phoenix. The Phoenix had completely disappeared. Along with it was the soul contract on Huang Ying¡¯s body. Huang Ying was already the last expert present. The other teachers were already lying on the ground, not moving at all. ¡°Fang Yuan¡­ From now on, I¡¯ll rely on you alone¡­¡± Huang Ying saw Xiahou holding a sword and getting closer to him. He chose to close his eyes. He began to miss the days when he studied under Xiahou. ¡°Mr. Xiahou, you¡¯re really kind to your pet beasts. You actually bandaged their wounds.¡± ¡°Huang Ying, do you think I¡¯m overdoing it?¡± ¡°No, I think you¡¯re too great, Teacher.¡± ¡°Pet beasts are actually like children. They don¡¯t have individual consciousness. Only pet beasts that have signed a contract with humans will gradually have self-consciousness.¡± ¡­ ¡°Mr. Xiahou, where are you going?¡± Huang Ying looked at Xiahou who had rushed out of the door and hurriedly chased after him. It turned out that the students of the Earth group were torturing and killing a captured little demon wolf in order to obtain a magic core. ¡°Xiahou, you¡¯re really a hypocrite. Don¡¯t you eat meat yourself?¡± Sima Kaile asked with a cold gaze when he saw that Xiahou had beaten all his students to the ground and was on the verge of death. ¡°I told you not to torture and kill them, and not to eat meat?¡± Ouyang Xinglan hurriedly stepped out to be the peacemaker and said, ¡°It¡¯s too inappropriate for your students to do such a thing.¡± ¡°Then what should we do? Give it anesthetic first, and then kill it?¡± Sima Kaile laughed and said. At this moment, Xiahou walked to the student¡¯s side. Sima Kaile was afraid that something would happen to the student, so he quickly prepared to go forward and stop him. Xiahou grabbed the student¡¯s neck and lifted him up in the air. ¡°Teacher, I beg you to spare me.¡± His face had already turned purple from being pinched, and he was begging for mercy. ¡°Stop right now!!¡± Sima Kaile could not take it anymore and summoned his pet beast. But at this moment, Xiahou let go. He asked coldly, ¡°Do you know what fear is now?¡± The student nodded in fear. His eyes were filled with tears as he ran away. ¡­ The scene returned to the laboratory. Huang Ying asked, ¡°Mr. Xiahou, why did you do that?¡± Xiahou said without turning his head, ¡°It¡¯s very easy to be cruel to the weak. I just wanted to let him know what it would feel like to face the strong.¡± ¡­ Huang Ying did not know why he thought of these things. Perhaps this was so-called ¡°when a person is about to die, memories of the past will appear in his mind¡±. During the days when Xiahou left the school, Huang Ying had been unswervingly carrying out the education policy that Xiahou had left behind. He did not expect that he would die under the sword of the person he admired the most. This was enough. He had already lived for too many years in Heavenly Secret Pavilion. This was also a kind of relief. Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and waited for the end to come. ¡°Teacher Huang, at any time, you can not give up hope.¡± Just as Xiahou¡¯s sword was about to touch Huang Ying, a familiar voice came from behind. Then, a long spear pierced through Xia Hou¡¯s elbow, making him put down the sword in his hand. ¡°Fang Yuan?¡± Huang Ying¡¯s eyes were full of tears. He was originally in despair, and now his heart suddenly lit up with hope. ¡°I am late.¡± Fang Yuan stood behind Huang Ying and put a hand on Huang Ying¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Teacher, don¡¯t give up hope.¡± ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t.¡± Huang Ying actually stood up under this encouragement. He suddenly realized that his body was beginning to flash with a green light. This was Fang Yuan¡¯s imprint power. Huang Ying felt that the soul contract in his body had been restored. His Phoenix had also transformed back into a small pet egg. This egg shell also had a unique flame pattern on it. That was the egg that Huang Ying had seen for the first time. ¡°Who are you?¡± Xiahou, who had been silent all this time, actually asked when he saw Fang Yuan. ¡°My name is Fang Yuan.¡± After Fang Yuan helped Huang Ying up, he stood in front of Huang Ying. ¡°I¡¯m the man who came to end the curse of your demon race.¡± ¡°You¡¯re overestimating yourself.¡± Xiahou snorted. The Xuanming warrior holding the Rice-Wife Sword instantly came in front of him and made a protective posture. [ Scientific name: Xuanming Warrior ] [ Bloodline: Skeleton Emperor ] [ Rarity: Peak King ] [ Attributes: Darkness, undead race ] [ Positioning: Attack, meat Shield ] If it was in the past, Fang Yuan would have been shocked by this pet beast. It could actually be considered a peak king at such a level. However, only after Fang Yuan had truly come into contact with the legendary realm did he understand that the difference between a king and a legendary was not just one or two levels. He now understood that even if he had a 100 times increase system, he still wouldn¡¯t be able to evolve a peak king into legendary. This was the difference in quality, and it wasn¡¯t something that could be made up with quantity. In other words¡­ A peak king¡¯s pet beast used the rules to the extreme, while a legendary pet beast created the rules within its ability. ¡°Ah Li, let it experience your power.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. The current Ah Li was exactly the same as the one he had seen in the illusion. Its name was Nine Tails, and its rules were energy absorption. The reason why the Xuanming warrior was so powerful before was because it was an immortal warrior. Its sword was also covered with darkness damage. Other than the light-type pet beast and its attributes that countered each other, all the other pet beasts would be dealt double damage by the darkness-type skills. In addition to the physical damage of its sword, it could kill most pet beasts in one hit. He also attacked Ah Li in the same way. Unexpectedly, all the darkness power on its sword was absorbed by Ah Li. ¡°This is¡­¡± Xiahou was a little surprised. He couldn¡¯t believe that someone could really reach the realm of ¡°King¡± like. This was the power of a legendary pet beast! ¡°I have often heard Teacher Huang mention about you. He said that you are a gentle and kind person, but now you have fallen into the hands of the demons. It really makes me feel sorry,¡± Fang Yuan said. At this time, his body was already burning with the ¡°Power of Circulation¡±. ¡°Ah Li, destroy them altogether.¡± Nine Tails jumped in front of Fang Yuan and used its tail to gather the power of nine attributes. It was like a laser cannon that was continuously shooting at Xiahou and his Xuanming warrior like a sieve. ¡°I lost¡­¡± Xiahou looked at the sky in disbelief. Chapter 179 - The Invincible Fang Yuan Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio When Xiahou fell, he felt a strange power washing away the demonic nature in his body. He had become a demon because he had used too many magic cores and was controlled by violent emotions. Fang Yuan¡¯s attack had completely dispelled the demonic power in his body. This was originally a good thing, but it was not the case for Xiahou. When he entered the demon world, his body was covered in wounds and he was on the verge of death. It was the magic core that had strengthened him and forcefully extended his life. Now that he had lost his magic power, he was just an ordinary person. He could only watch as his body shattered. The Xuanming warrior was the same. It was even worse than Xiahou because it was blocking in front of Xiahou. Xiahou crawled closer to the Xuanming Warrior and stroked its bald head. This scene was extremely abnormal. Fang Yuan could not bear to watch it anymore, but Huang Ying understood. This Xuanming warrior should be the pet beast that Xiahou¡¯s original Thunder Tiger had transformed into. At that time, Xiahou¡¯s Thunder Tiger was close to the end of its life. Xiahou had tried all means to keep it, but he could not. In the end, he found a way to demonize it. However, this demonization was unable to save its life. In the end, he relied on the power of the ¡°King¡± to turn it into a skeleton warrior. That was why he fought side by side with Xiahou. He did not expect that after 300 years, he had already become so strong. Thinking of this, Huang Ying could not help but look at Fang Yuan. If Xiahou was a genius, then what was Fang Yuan? A one in ten thousand genius? Fang Yuan only used less than a year to defeat a pet beast with the strength of a king or above. (Huang Ying did not know the specific level of the other party) Then, Fang Yuan¡¯s current ability¡­ Huang Ying asked, ¡°Fang Yuan, have you already reached the King level strength?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yuan sat on the body of the gryphon that was sparkling with starlight and colorful light. This gryphon had also broken through the peak of star brilliance and came to the King realm. It was the Star Iron Gryphon. ¡°Then, have you reached the legendary realm?¡± Huang Ying saw the scene in front of him and almost suspected that he was dreaming. The flying diamond gryphons in the sky were fighting against the flying dragons of the demon world. They were not at a disadvantage at all! One must understand that these flying dragon corps had beaten the teachers of Heavenly Secret Pavilion to the point that they could not retaliate. Even Ouyang Xinglan could not withstand three moves. Not to mention the other two teachers. In comparison, Huang Ying was the strongest of the four teachers. He had lived until now. As Fang Yuan left, Huang Ying saw that Xiahou had already fallen asleep with the Xuanming warrior in his arms. However, this time, he had fallen asleep forever. Huang Ying was about to close his eyes, but he did not expect the Xuanming warrior to turn into an egg and fall into Huang Ying¡¯s hands. As for Xiahou, his body began to disintegrate. ¡°Huang Ying, thank you for teaching such an outstanding student¡­¡± In the wind, Huang Ying seemed to hear such a sentence, but he wasn¡¯t sure if it was real or if it was just an illusion. But it didn¡¯t matter anymore. ¡°Old Man Ouyang, I didn¡¯t expect that I would die here with you.¡± Sima Kaile¡¯s body was also full of wounds, and he smiled bitterly helplessly. ¡°It¡¯s your fault for not practicing properly normally. At this time, it¡¯s too late to regret.¡± ¡°What¡¯s the use of practicing normally? Aren¡¯t you also just lying here like me?¡± Sima Kaile was displeased that Ouyang Xing Lan was still showing off at this point in time. His Light Lion Beast was already at its last breath, and the Bauhinia Flower Beast that he used to fly with, had long since passed away. ¡°But to be honest, Old Man Sima, although I don¡¯t like you, you have indeed made a lot of contributions to Heavenly Secret Pavilion and nurtured many outstanding students.¡± ¡°You¡¯re not bad either. Although you didn¡¯t nurture many, they are all elites of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°To be able to die here with you today, although it¡¯s disgusting, it¡¯s still quite an honor.¡± ¡°I feel the same.¡± They were facing one of the three great generals of the demon race, the Blood-Red General. His pet beast was a huge red dragon. Every time it spat out, it would carry powerful fire damage, making it impossible for Ouyang Xinglan to withstand it. At this moment, he began to prepare for his last attack. He would not show any mercy in this attack. He wanted to directly turn Ouyang Xinglan and the others into ashes. [ Scientific name: Adorak (adult) ] [ Bloodline: Adorak ] [ Rarity: Peak King ] [ Attributes: Fire, wind, dragon ] Fang Yuan¡¯s Star-Iron Gryphon used a hurricane to interrupt Adorak¡¯s flame casting, and it shocked the Blood-Red General. ¡°That person is¡­ Fang Yuan?¡± Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s eyes were wide open. The red dragon that he could not even block a single move was actually forced back by Fang Yuan¡¯s gryphon. ¡°Fang Yuan has come out from Heavenly Secret Pavilion!¡± Sima Kaile laughed, ¡°He¡¯s actually this powerful. Guess what rank his pet beast is at.¡± ¡°King?¡± Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s eyes were moist, ¡°I think Fang Yuan is just a legend.¡± ¡°Adorak, don¡¯t worry. Destroy this world! Destructive Storm!¡± This was an ultimate offensive skill that dealt damage to all life within a ten-kilometer radius with the user as the center. However, it required a certain amount of preparation time. One could imagine how powerful it was to allow a peak king pet beast to enter the preparation time. The fire elementals in the air also began to become irritable. Ouyang Xinglan could feel the fire elementals pulsating. He said to Fang Yuan, ¡°Don¡¯t let it use its skills. We don¡¯t have any lifeforms that can survive this explosion.¡± Fang Yuan smiled slightly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it won¡¯t be able to release it.¡± ¡°You¡¯re overestimating yourself.¡± ¡°Ah, I think I¡¯ve heard that before.¡± Fang Yuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh when he heard the words of the Blood-Red General. At this moment, the two-story-tall Nine-Tailed Fox appeared in mid-air. With the power of a wind elf, it already possessed the ability to fly. Moreover, it quickly calmed the restless fire elementals in the air, causing everything to return to peace. ¡°This is¡­¡± The Blood Red General¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°This is the power of a legendary pet beast!¡± It was not that he had never seen a legendary pet beast before, but he had definitely never seen a human using the power of a legendary pet beast!! His eyes widened, and then he saw Ah Li open his mouth and shoot out a beam of light at them. The Blood Red General¡¯s mask fell from the sky, revealing a face without flesh. ¡°King, I failed. It¡¯s a pity that I couldn¡¯t accompany you to the end.¡± After he fell from the sky, he didn¡¯t die immediately. He and his pet beast were surrounded by the green light. Then, his body began to gradually recover and grow back meat. The Red Dragon turned into a pet egg, and he first recovered his youth and returned to his human form. Then, he fell to the ground. He couldn¡¯t remember how long it had been. He finally experienced the feeling of being a human again¡­ Although it was a a bit painful. He closed his eyes and fell to the ground. Chapter 180 - The End of Heavenly Secret Pavilion ¡°Fang Yuan, the principal has been taken away by the demons. You must bring him back, please.¡± In this catastrophe, apart from the Xuan group¡¯s teacher, Linghu Yiran, no one else had died in the battle. Linghu Yiran was a person who was filled with hatred towards the demons. It was reckoned that the conflict between him and the demons had reached an irreconcilable state, which was why he ended up like this. Without rest, Fang Yuan arrived at the Fallen Star Plain. The entrance to the demon world was at the back. ¡°Fang Yuan,¡± Ouyang Xinglan said, feeling troubled, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to surpass me in just a few days. As your teacher, there¡¯s nothing else I can help you with.¡± ¡°No such thing, Teacher.¡± Fang Yuan was standing at the entrance to the demon world. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary cave, but any trainer with a certain level of strength could feel the spiritual fluctuations. ¡°After I go in, if there is any pet beasts of the demon world rushing out, I¡¯ll still have to rely on you to stop them.¡± When the demons invaded Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the principal had cut off the connection between the arcane realm of the pavilion and the outside world. This was to prevent them from rushing out to the outside world through the channel of the pavilion. Therefore, they could only stay in the pavilion and were unable to return to the real world. This had made many students feel despair. As the principal had said that even if they completely destroyed him, they would not be able to break this enchantment. They were all sacrifices made to seal the demons. Not only Ouyang Xinglan and the other teachers, even Xu Fei and Su Han had the awareness to sacrifice themselves for humanity. But now that Fang Yuan had appeared, hope was rekindled in their hearts. They were now not willing to sacrifice themselves. Humans were such strange creatures. When they saw hope, the first thing they thought of was to survive. Before Fang Yuan entered the demon world, he suddenly remembered something. ¡°Oh yes, Teacher Huang Ying, when I went to Mandrake Grassland, I found a mountain there. From the outside, the mountain looks very ordinary, but when you get close, you will find a cave. Inside the cave, it is actually connected to a grass arcane realm in Seaside City.¡± When the teachers talked about the arcane realm being sealed, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t remember it. But now he remembered it when he saw the entrance to the domon world. This would mean all the people in the arcane realm, including teachers and students, can leave Heavenly Secret Pavilion safe and sound. ¡°Really?¡± Huang Ying asked Fang Yuan incredulously. This student had so many secrets and would give him surprise every time. Fang Yuan nodded. He asked Xiao Jin to directly print the approximate location into the minds of everyone present through a spiritual link. This was the special ability of the commander of Star Iron Gryphon Legion. It could directly change the memories of others, however, it was only effective on bird type pet beasts. ¡°Ji ji ji¡± After many bird pet beasts were written with this memory, they began to circle in the sky excitedly, eagerly bringing the students there. Including Su Han, all the students had left. Now, they only wanted to return to the real world and hide at home to enjoy the beauty of life. Ouyang Xinglan, Sima Kaile, and Huang Ying, the three teachers, were unmoved. They sat quietly in front of the cave. ¡°Old Man Sima, do you think our Heavenly Secret Pavilion would just end?¡± Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s tone seemed to have aged a lot. ¡°It should be, but our mission has been completed. This is enough.¡± Sima Kaile also gradually felt tired. ¡°You guys¡­¡± Huang Ying felt that they seemed to have aged a lot, but the difference in their appearance could not be seen. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you guys?¡± Huang Ying himself had a similar feeling. However, he was still quite young compared to the two seniors, so it was much alleviated. ¡°Huang Ying, you should have felt it too, right?¡± Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s pet beast, the radiant lion, had died in glory in the battle just now. Now, he was holding the lion¡¯s pet egg and caressing it. ¡°Felt what?¡± Huang Ying didn¡¯t know what Ouyang Xinglan was talking about. ¡°The order of Heavenly Secret Pavilion is changing.¡± ¡°Is that so?¡± Huang Ying felt his body gradually become heavy after his reminder. The legend of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion has never been because of this arcane realm, but because Heavenly Secrets Pavilion is the arcane realm within the arcane realm.¡± This sentence sounded like a tongue twister, but Huang Ying understood. ¡°Fang Yuan defeated Heavenly Secret Pavilion and became the first person to successfully challenge it.¡± ¡°The reason why we don¡¯t age and die is because we have the protection of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.¡± ¡°And now, the mission of Heavenly Secret Pavilion has been completed, and his protection for us has also been lifted.¡± Ouyang Xinglan shook his head with a bitter smile and asked, ¡°Huang Ying, how many years have you lived in the arcane realm?¡± ¡°About 500 years.¡± Huang Ying pressed his finger on his lips and actually began to count, ¡°Then what about you seniors¡­¡± When Huang Ying said this, he saw Ouyang Xing Lan and Sima Kaile standing in the air like two stone statues. ¡°Mr. Ouyang, Mr. Sima.¡± Huang Ying lowered his head and let his tears flow down his hair. These two teachers had existed when Huang Ying came to Heavenly Secret Pavilion, at least 800 years ago. However, he didn¡¯t have time to say goodbye. He could also feel that his vitality was gradually draining away. Huang Ying raised his hand and looked at the sun in the sky. Through the gaps of his fingers, he saw the sunlight. Although it was dazzling, he was full of hope. ¡°Fang Yuan, Teacher can¡¯t accompany you to the end. You must win¡­¡± Not long after, Xinyu, Su Han, Xu Fei, and Lin Wei actually returned. ¡°I don¡¯t want to lose to that kid Fang Yuan. If he can enter the demon world, so can I.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t try to be brave. We¡¯ll wait for him at the gate of the demon world.¡± ¡°But isn¡¯t there a teacher guarding there?¡± Only Su Han didn¡¯t say a word. He was the first to arrive at the gate of the demon world and saw the bodies of the four teachers. Xin Yu immediately rushed up and wanted to hug Huang Ying¡¯s body, but Huang Ying, keeping his smile at the sun, turned into dust in the wind. ¡°Teacher!!¡± Xinyu cried out, but was pulled back by Su Han. ¡°Now is not the time to be sad.¡± ¡°Su Han, you are even colder-blooded than me.¡± Xu Fei also felt a little uncomfortable about Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s death. He finally understood why Sima Kaile and Teacher Ouyang were always quarreling. Actually this was also a way to express their concerns. ¡°Su Han, why are you so cold-blooded?¡± Lin Wei also joined in and said. Su Han raised his sword and pointed at the golden bees that surged out from the demon world¡¯s entrance. ¡°Our battle is not over yet.¡± ¡°Alright, since the teachers are no longer here, let us guard this place.¡± ¡°Then you have to be even stronger.¡± Su Han glanced at Xu Fei while he and the mantis went up. Chapter 181 - The Scarlet Tribe Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After Fang Yuan entered the cave of the demon world, he fell into a state of confusion. This cave gave him the same feeling as when he entered the 90th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It was energy fluctuation. This was a world of nothingness. Fang Yuan could not see the path under his feet clearly. He was just advancing forward using his instinct. With every step he took, he would see a ripple beneath his feet. It was as if he was walking on water. From time to time, bat-like creatures would fly past his ears. They did not look like pet beasts that had the desire to attack. They were just ordinary creatures. After walking for an unknown period of time, Fang Yuan finally came to the end of the cave. He saw a purple light at the end of the cave. When he walked further, he missed his step and fell down. Fang Yuan immediately summoned the Star Steel Gryphon which caught him in its palm. The space in this world was actually upside down. Fang Yuan remembered that when he walked over, he was walking upright. However, when he stepped into this space, it became that he was walking vertically, so he naturally fell down from the sky. When the Star Steel Gryphon was summoned and appeared, it also felt a little uncomfortable. The gravity of this world was almost five times that of the original world. The Star Steel Gryphon flapped its wings several times before it gradually adapted to this environment, and began to fly steadily. ¡°Xiao Jin, it¡¯s been hard on you.¡± Fang Yuan could actually feel this change. Therefore, when Xiao Jin stabilized, Fang Yuan immediately expressed his gratitude to Xiao Jin while Xiao Jin gave a low cry to the sky. In this kind of environment, long-term flying was an irrational thing. After Fang Yuan flew out of the dense forest, he let Xiao Jin land. During the process of landing, Fang Yuan gradually realized that the rules of this world were very unique. For example, the higher he flew, the greater the gravity he would have to bear. It was completely different from the real world. On the ground, the gravity he had to bear was only twice that much. He could completely endure it. If it was a divine beast like the rattlesnake, its strength would probably be greatly weakened in this world. No wonder the pet beasts of the demon world were so powerful in the real world. It would be a surprise if a pet beast that grew up in such a high-pressure and harsh environment was not powerful. ¡°Lutania.¡± Fang Yuan summoned this mountain-like pet beast merely because he was extremely familiar with the demon world. In the pet space, Lutania had sensed the familiar aura of the demon world, so it had been summoning Fang Yuan to release it. Now, it had a chance. In front of Lutania, Fang Yuan was the size of a small stone. ¡°Have you been here before?¡± Fang Yuan asked curiously. He and Nero, or Lutania, were now as one. ¡°No.¡± Lutania said. He looked up at the red moon of the demon world. ¡°This is the southwest direction of the demon world. It¡¯s the territory of the Scarlet Tribe that I dislike the most.¡± ¡°The Scarlet Tribe?¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s understanding of the demon world was not inferior to Lutania¡¯s. Before entering the trial at Heavenly Secret Pavilion, he had only seen the demons of the Green Tribe and the Indigo Tribe. However, when he challenged the 89th level, he had already met the former king of the demon world. He had given all his memories of the demon world to him. This included mysterious creatures like Lutania. ¡°Should I call you Lutania now, or Nero?¡± Fang Yuan said with a smile. They were now heading towards the Scarlet Tribe, the strongest in the demon world. ¡°Both are fine.¡± Lutania showed an indifferent attitude. ¡°Anyway, names are just titles to me. But I want to ask you, do you like others to call you ¡®Fang¡¯ instead of ¡®Fang Yuan¡¯?¡± ¡°Oh, is your full name Lutania Nero?¡± Fang Yuan said jokingly. ¡°Just call me Lutania.¡± It stopped because in front of it, there was a red area, where fragments of flames were scattered everywhere. The people here all had red skin. From their appearance, they were still in a relatively primitive state. A man who looked like the leader of a tribe stood up and knelt in front of Lutania. He was communicating with Lutania in words that Fang Yuan did not understand. ¡°What is he talking about?¡± Fang Yuan asked. ¡°He is asking who you are.¡± ¡°Then what did you answer?¡± ¡°I say that you are a man who has come to settle the dispute between the demons,¡± Lutania said. ¡°Oh.¡± Fang Yuan felt that Lutania was a liar because after he said that, the people of the tribe below clearly picked up their weapons and summoned their pet beasts. ¡°What do they reply?¡± ¡°The Scarlet Tribe only believes in the strong, not the savior.¡± Lutania shrugged, which almost made Fang Yuan fall off its body. The strongest warriors of the Scarlet Tribe were none other than the Red Dragon. However, they did not know that their strongest warrior had been killed by Fang Yuan. The strongest pet beast left behind was only the Flame Demon. It was one level lower than the flame demon owned by the ¡°old king¡± whom Fang Yuan had challenged on the 89th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. It was nothing to Fang Yuan. When the warriors of the Scarlet Tribe gathered together, they were swept away by the vines of Lutania. Following their defeat, the Elders of the Scarlet Tribe knelt on the ground to show their respect. ¡°Fang Yuan, I have already convinced them,¡± Lutania said calmly. ¡°I saw it. You are so eloquent. You only used the vines to make them listen obediently.¡± ¡°Using strength to speak is the rule of the demon world.¡± ¡°By the way, what exactly is your purpose in gathering the people of these tribes?¡± Lutania still did not understand what Fang Yuan was planning to do. It was because in Lutania¡¯s opinion, the best way to resolve the dispute in the demon world was to directly go to the nest of the demon king and kill the ¡°King¡±. However, Fang Yuan¡¯s idea was to gather all the eight tribes together. It seemed that there was another conspiracy. Fang Yuan jumped down from Lutania¡¯s back and stood in front of the kneeling Elder of the Scarlet Tribe. ¡°Can you understand my language?¡± Fang Yuan said coldly. ¡°Yes.¡± The Elder of the Scarlet Tribe had originally looked down on Fang Yuan, thinking that he was just a brat who relied on Lutania¡¯s ability. However, when he really stood in front of him, he felt a sense of majesty from him. Moreover, this majesty had a hint of nostalgia. Fang Yuan didn¡¯t know that this was the deterrence effect of the memories that the other party had given him after he defeated the warrior on the 89th level. ¡°Leave the sacred item of your tribe ¡ª the Heart of Scarlet Flame to me.¡± ¡°Impossible. Without that item, all the demons in our tribe will disappear!¡± ¡°That won¡¯t happen.¡± Fang Yuan revealed a green light, causing the Elder of the Scarlet Tribe to widen his eyes. ¡°This power of yours¡­¡± Chapter 182 - The Space of Infinite Possibilities The Scarlet Tribe continued to advance in the southwest direction of the demon world. They would arrive at the address of the Green Tribe that Fang Yuan was familiar with. There was actually no lack of battle pet beasts in the demon world. It was just that Lutania seemed to have its own deterrent effect on most of the pet beasts. Wherever it passed, it was not threatened by any pet beasts, which made Fang Yuan feel a little bored. He originally thought that after coming to the demon world, he would experience all kinds of battles. Now, it looked like it was just a boring journey. ¡°What do you want the holy relics of the eight tribes for?¡± Lutania had lived for so long, but it could not understand Fang Yuan¡¯s real intention. This man looked young, but after going through the trials of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, the feeling he gave to Lutania was completely different. Sometimes, it would feel like actually it was the one who was a child in its early twenties. ¡°Don¡¯t the pet beasts in the demon world never know what equipment is?¡± Fang Yuan lay on Lutania¡¯s body. The Heart of Scarlet Flame was already placed in Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space. With the Heart of Scarlet Flame, Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beasts¡¯ damage to flames would be reduced to the minimum. In fact, this effect was not very meaningful to Fang Yuan anymore. It was because legendary pet beasts could do whatever they wanted in this world, most of the pet beasts in the demon world were so weak that they could not even defeat Lutania. Fang Yuan did not even need to summon Ah Li. This thought made Lutania a little unhappy. It did not think that it was weaker than the Nine-Tailed Fox. Fang Yuan did not argue with it because they had already arrived at the territory of the Green Tribe. Fang Yuan jumped onto the ground. The warriors of the Green Tribe had felt the powerful mental power and their pet beasts, so they had long been prepared for the battle. The ones standing at the forefront were undoubtedly Karlott, who had met Fang Yuan once, and his purple giant dragon. At that time, the purple giant dragon at the peak of Star Brilliance had indeed amazed Fang Yuan, and he felt that he would never be able to reach that realm. Karlott said angrily, ¡°I shouldn¡¯t have let you go back then. You¡¯re actually so powerful now.¡± After saying that, he also glanced at Vera, and a worried expression appeared on Vera¡¯s face. ¡°I¡¯m not here to fight with you.¡± Fang Yuan raised his hands, indicating that he was not hostile. ¡°Wherever Lutania goes, there will be disasters,¡± Karlott muttered to himself. He flew into the air on the Purple Dragon and began to gather the energy of lightning. In fact, Karlott was not stupid. He could see the difference between him and Fang Yuan at a glance, just like the difference between Fang Yuan and him when they first met. ¡°I¡¯ll give you a chance. Do you really want to die?¡± Fang Yuan stood calmly on the spot and looked at Karlott who was gathering energy in the air. If he gave up on attacking now, Fang Yuan might consider sparing his life. ¡°Impossible.¡± Karlott closed his eyes. This was the strongest attack of him and the Purple Dragon, attacking Fang Yuan with all his strength. ¡°Zi zi zi¡± The lightning in the air didn¡¯t hurt Fang Yuan, nor did it land on the heads of the people of the Green Tribe. Instead, it stayed in the air in a strange manner. The Nine Tails gently wrapped around it with its tail and swallowed it into its mouth. As if it was enjoying a delicious meal, it even burped. Karlott¡¯s face was ashen as he looked at Fang Yuan. He no longer had any ability to fight. The reason why he wanted to kill Fang Yuan was because the King had given an order. If he could not kill Fang Yuan, all of the tribe would face the fate of being purged. ¡°What exactly is a King?¡± Fang Yuan asked Vera curiously, but she did not seem to be able to say it. She only knew that the ¡°King¡± would directly give an order to their brains. If they refused the order, their bodies would turn into powder and disappear completely. After attacking Fang Yuan, Karlott was also exhausted, but he actually mustered up the courage to charge at Fang Yuan with a spear. In the end, Ah Li directly spat back the Lightning Bullet. In order to protect its master, the Purple Dragon blocked the energy bullet and it was heavily injured, and Karlott was under its body. The people of the Green Tribe were very afraid of Fang Yuan¡¯s power, but they were also afraid of the power of the King. Therefore, they summoned their pet beasts in an attempt to fight with Fang Yuan to the death. ¡°You guys are really too weak.¡± Lutania easily held the people and pet beasts of the Green Tribe in his hands. ¡°Please kill us, we don¡¯t want to die in the King¡¯s hands.¡± Vera cried. ¡°I won¡¯t kill you.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes and summoned his imprint ability. A weak green light covered every member of the Green Tribe, including Karlott and the Purple Dragon just now. They could feel the changes in their bodies. ¡°What is the nature of the demon race?¡± Fang Yuan had been thinking about this question. The principal and Huang Ying had given him great inspiration, and he had obtained a definite answer from the guardian of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The demon race was actually humans who had been demonized together with their pet beasts after the spiritual essence had exploded. If they were to be classified, they were [ Scientific name: Warrior of the Green Tribe ] [ Bloodline: Emperor of Green ] [ Attribute: Thunder, human ] [ Positioning: Warrior ] They were like such pet beast. The power that Fang Yuan possessed was the ability to return the pet beast to zero. ¡°Warrior of the Green Tribe, I am Fang Yuan, the holder of the Circulation Mark.¡± Seeing that everyone was no longer resisting, Fang Yuan began to introduce himself. ¡°I need your Heart of Green Emperor now.¡± ¡°Impossible, if I give it to you, all of our tribesmen will die, whether it is us now or us lurking in the human world.¡± Vera could not care about anything else anymore and spoke out her worries. ¡°You mean lurking in the human world?¡± Fang Yuan smiled. True enough, the Green Tribe was like him, a peace-loving tribe. They had thought of a way to coexist peacefully with the humans without being discovered. ¡°Yes, we have our own ways to hide our identities.¡± Vera nodded. ¡°Please don¡¯t take away our Heart of Green Emperor. It¡¯s the heart of our entire tribe.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t let you die.¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°The people of the Scarlet Tribe are also by my side now, fighting with me.¡± ¡°Where are they?¡± Vera asked in confusion. Fang Yuan summoned Xiao Jin and used its special ability to show the items in the pet space to the people of the Green Tribe. After the people of the Scarlet Tribe handed over the Heart of Scarlet Flame, they didn¡¯t die. They all lived in Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space. Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space was completely different from the pet space of other trainers. However, Fang Yuan didn¡¯t realize it at that time. He thought that all trainers¡¯ pet space were the same. In fact, the pet space of other trainers were like a secret room. Only Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space was an infinitely expanding domain. Chapter 183 - Agreement Fang Yuan could completely destroy the magic core with the circulation skill, which meant that he could easily kill any demon. However, that was not the best way to resolve the dispute. To resolve the dispute, the most important thing was to gather the people of the eight tribes and study carefully the way to move forward In Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space, they would isolate the mind and will control of the King, allowing them to truly speak freely. Of course, Fang Yuan¡¯s actions were actually monitored by the ¡°King¡±, but he was currently in a weak state and could not step out to stop it. He could only watch as Fang Yuan gathered the eight tribes. They were: The Scarlet Tribe representing fire; The Cyan Tribe representing lightning; The Indigo Tribe representing wind; The Silver Tribe representing water; The Green Tribe representing grass; The Brown Tribe representing earth; The Dark Tribe representing darkness; The Purple Tribe representing superpowers. These eight tribes corresponded to the abilities of the eight pet beasts. The only thing they lacked was the power that represented light. Perhaps the demon race did not have any tribes that could represent the light. These tribes had once been enemies with each other. To fight for territory, they would go to any lengths. War, scheming, they had formed many grudges with each other. They had originally thought that they would never let go of their hatred. It was only when they came to Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space and isolated themselves from the King¡¯s will that they realized that the reason why they had such violent emotions was mainly because the King did not want them to live together peacefully. He wanted them to continue fighting and use war to nurture war. He wanted them to train the strongest pet trainer and fight the humans in the final battle. The King had originally planned to launch a general attack on the humans in a hundred years. However, some time ago, the King seemed to have gone crazy and felt a huge threat. Due to his crazy orders, the demon world warriors attacked the Heavenly Secret Pavilion one after another. Their three great commanders were all Peak King grade trainers. As long as they were given a little more time, they would be able to step into the Legendary realm. This little bit of time was the hundred years that the King had planned. But this time, the King had miscalculated. Not only did the three Peak King grade commanders fail to kill Fang Yuan, they were all killed by Fang Yuan. The King saw Fang Yuan through their eyes. That powerful strength was almost comparable to his. The demon race had suffered heavy losses in this attack. Fang Yuan had single-handedly killed the three peak-level generals of the demon race, causing the demon world to have no fighting power other than the ¡°King¡±. This was only one aspect. Due to the demon race¡¯s invasion, Principal Shangguan of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had sealed the entire pavilion. The demon race couldn¡¯t leave the pavilion at all, which made him very desperate. He had captured the principal in order to find a way to break the seal. However, the principal¡¯s body had turned into ashes in front of the King. This made the King feel very puzzled. However, he soon understood the truth. Fang Yuan had already completed the challenge of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The purpose of Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡¯s existence had completely disappeared. This meant that those who had infinite life because of Heavenly Secret Pavilion would die because of this. It also meant that¡­ The arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion would shrink very quickly until it disappeared. If the demons didn¡¯t grasp the time and find a way to leave the arcane realm, they would really be finished here. Fang Yuan had gathered the eight tribes to tell them one thing. ¡°I will kill your so-called ¡®King¡¯ next, and then you will be free. You can go wherever you want, as long as you don¡¯t do anything evil.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Vera tried to use her mental power, and she really could not feel the King¡¯s mark in her body. The leader of the Indigo Tribe laughed, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that after so many years of fighting, the contact method is so simple.¡± ¡°No, it seems very simple, but it is very difficult to transplant the tribe¡¯s heart into the pet space,¡± the leader of the Purple Tribe said. ¡°Besides Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space, have you ever seen such a vast world?¡± This sentence made everyone fall silent. It was just as she said, Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space was as big as the world, even bigger than the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. If they could, they would have taken down Heavenly Secret Pavilion long ago. ¡°Though Fang Yuan is powerful, is he really a match for the King?¡± Vera asked worriedly. Now, the eight tribes had reached a truce and agreed that they would no longer use their abilities when they entered the human society in the future, however, they were welcoming a new life. They had placed all their hopes on Fang Yuan. This was also the first time that they, as demons, actually hoped that humans could defeat their King. If this was in the demon world, it would be an incredible thing. When Fang Yuan saw that they had agreed to his request, he smiled slightly and returned to the real world. Now, there was only one final destination left. Fang Yuan sat on Lutania¡¯s back and looked at the mountain in the center of the map. ¡°Is your King up there?¡± Fang Yuan asked. Standing beside him were all his pet beasts. With eight tribal hearts, Fang Yuan¡¯s mental power was unprecedentedly strong. He could support so many pet beasts at the peak of Star Brilliance and above to fight at the same time. ¡°That is not my King.¡± Lutania shook its body. ¡°There is only one king in this world, and that is me.¡± Nine-Tailed roared at Lutania, as if it was the king. Fang Yuan looked at the mark in his hand and could not help but think of the scene he had seen in the illusion. Lutania had not entered the Legendary level yet because it was too powerful. There was no material to support its transformation. However, Lutania had another unique way of evolution. The King was definitely a Legendary level trainer. Once his pet beast was devoured by Lutania, it would definitely reach the Legendary level. What Fang Yuan was doing now was actually controlling the Legendary pet beast Nine Tails to challenge the King who had the Legendary pet beast. He remembered that the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had said that there could only be one Legendary pet beast in this world. It would become the ruler of all the pet beasts, which was also the ¡°King¡±! The King that the demons had been calling for so long was not a member of a certain race at all. Instead, he had wrapped his entire body up, so that people could only see his eyes and mistake him for a human¡­ He was also the man that Fang Yuan had seen in the Grass Arcane Realm. ¡°You¡¯re finally here,¡± the man sitting on the throne said calmly as he looked at the man on the mountain in front of him. ¡°Yes, I am the one who came to end your life.¡± Chapter 184 - Two Legendary Pet Beasts After a pet beast entered a certain realm, it would have divine sense. Usually, it would start from Diamond grade. The Holy Light Angel Beast was a different species. It actually did not belong to any of the races in this world. His appearance was completely unexpected. ¡°Fang Yuan, I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here.¡± Like the first time at the Grass Arcane Realm, his entire body was tightly wrapped, and only one eye was looking at the outside world. Actually, Fang Yuan was also a little surprised to see him. To Fang Yuan, all the illusions and elements that he saw when his mark was awakened were now complete. This person was not an ordinary demon, but the King of the demon race. Ah Li had also evolved into Nine Tails. Nero had also become Lutania. He was only one step away from the complete coincidence of the illusions. ¡°Do you want that power?¡± This sentence had been lingering in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. He chose the power of circulation, and he still made it to where he was today. ¡°I¡¯m very surprised.¡± He looked at Fang Yuan with a lot of confusion in his eyes. ¡°At that time, you were still so weak that I couldn¡¯t even be bothered to attack you.¡± After being looked down upon by the other party, Fang Yuan also laughed. ¡°I have the same thought. I always thought that you were just a small fry of some tribe. I didn¡¯t expect you to be the demon king.¡± His tone became tough. ¡°You also know that I am the King?¡± He stretched out his hand and commanded Lutania, ¡°Kill the youth on your back, Lutania.¡± Lutania¡¯s eyes turned red. Then, it actually stretched out a vine and lifted Fang Yuan into the air. ¡°Fang Yuan, the King¡¯s orders are not to be disobeyed.¡± He closed his eyes, as if he could not bear to see Fang Yuan being crushed into minced meat. However, Lutania did not take any further action. Instead, it laughed at the sky. ¡°Hahahahaha!¡± Hearing Lutania¡¯s laughter, it opened its eyes again and looked at it in confusion. ¡°What are you laughing at? You dare to disobey the King¡¯s will?¡± He strengthened the ripples in his hand again, as if this thing could control Lutania¡¯s mind. But he soon realized that something was wrong. As from Fang Yuan¡¯s side, another even more powerful ripple appeared, interfering with his control over Lutania. The source was none other than Ah Li. The Legendary pet beast and the King pet beast seemed to be only one level apart, but in reality, there was an insurmountable gap between the owners. This was a change in the rules. Ah Li, who had entered the Legendary realm, could clearly see that the so-called will of the ¡°King¡± was just a powerful mind control spell that could not be dispelled, and Ah Li could do it, too. After Fang Yuan summoned Ah Li, Ah Li immediately interrupted his casting. This time, they stood in a fair position. ¡°King, What¡¯s your real identity?¡± Fang yuan smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m really curious.¡± After receiving Fang Yuan¡¯s order, Ah Li disappeared in front of the King. Before the King could dodge the attack, his clothes were torn by Ah Li. [ Scientific name: Angel of Holy Light ] [ Bloodline: Angel of Holy Light ] [ Race: Angel ] [ Attribute: Light ] The moment Fang Yuan saw it, a lot of knowledge about it entered his mind. Fang Yuan said self-deprecatingly, ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect that the leader of the demon race would be an angel.¡± Seeing that her disguise was broken, the angel of Holy Light no longer hid herself. The six wings on its back supported her to fly into the air. ¡°Fang Yuan, I admire your courage. I originally wanted to keep you alive.¡± ¡°Did you want to keep me alive just now?¡± Fang Yuan mercilessly exposed her hypocrisy. Just now, she had clearly asked Lutania to kill him. ¡°Angels have the ability to resurrect people,¡± the Holy Light Angel replied mechanically. She was like a machine without any emotions. ¡°That¡¯s a really cool ability.¡± Fang Yuan did not know whether she was telling the truth or not. The Holy Light Angel in front of him was a complete mystery to him. ¡°Why do you want to resurrect me? Or rather, why should I believe you?¡± The Holy Light Angel sighed. ¡°It¡¯s because I have an agreement with someone, if I meet you.¡± However, she did not finish her sentence. Instead, she raised the sword in her hand. ¡°But things are different now. This world does not allow the existence of two Legendary pet beasts at the same time. Do you know why?¡± Seeing that the Holy Light Angel was about to launch an attack, Ah Li moved and stood in front of Fang Yuan. ¡°Why?¡± Fang Yuan remembered that Gaia had mentioned something similar, and the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had also mentioned about it, ¡°There can only be one Legendary pet beast in this world.¡± ¡°It¡¯s because of the rules.¡± The Holy Light Angel glanced at Ah Li, and Ah Li nodded in agreement. ¡°Legendary pet beasts can rely on the rules to fight. For example, your Nine Tails can convert all the energy you come into contact with into energy of other attributes unconditionally. This is a kind of rule.¡± ¡°And I am another kind of rule. Only one of us can become the ruler of space.¡± At this point, Lutania said a little sourly, ¡°You guys are really great.¡± ¡°Lutania was once a ruler, too.¡± The Holy Light Angel did not ignore Lutania¡¯s words. It flapped its six wings and entered the combat mode. ¡°Are you ready, Fang Yuan?¡± The Holy Light Angel raised its sword. The tip of the sword was shining with seven-colored light. ¡°I didn¡¯t know that you were a fair-minded person.¡± Fang Yuan smiled and summoned Lutania back to the pet space. As the Holy Light Angel did not do anything else, and only created a huge arena, it meant to have a one-on-one fight with Ah Li. Ah Li was also humming in response to her challenge. ¡°Is this the Legendary battle between pet beasts?¡± ¡°My life is not in vain.¡± As Ah Li and the Holy Light Angel stepped onto the arena, some strange figures appeared. Fang Yuan was not unfamiliar with them because they were the guardians of the major arcane realms! ¡°Old Man, Fenglin, why are you all here¡­¡± Fang Yuan could not remember clearly the names of each guardian, but they had helped him before, so he would never forget them. ¡°The King¡¯s duel needs us elemental guardians to witness it.¡± The Fire Monk stood up to answer this question. He looked at Fang Yuan with admiration. ¡°Back then, as you were able to defeat the demonized Flame Demon, I thought you were extraordinary. However, I didn¡¯t expect you to come to the final arena today.¡± Fang Yuan saw them exchanging words one after another and felt that his IQ had been crushed. It seemed that he was the only one in the entire arena who didn¡¯t know about all these. ¡°Stop chatting. The final battle has begun.¡± Elder Tu interrupted their conversation. Everyone looked at each other and came to the four corners of the arena, starting to set up the barriers. The final battle between two Legendary pet beasts was finally about to begin! Chapter 185 - Nine Tails Versus Holy Angel Nine Tails was showing threatening gestures and stared fixedly at Holy Angel floating in the sky. ¡°In this arena, it¡¯s fair to both of us. None of us can use the power of the rules.¡± Gently flapping its wings, Holy Angel looked at Nine Tails with the posture of the King in the air, making Nine Tails feel very uncomfortable. There was no longer a need for anyone to remind them, and the battle began silently. The Spirit Fox state was the ultimate form of Nine Tails. It was no longer the state of any one of the elements, but at the same time gathered nine elements in one body. ¡°Light Seal.¡± Holy Angel pointed the sword in her hand toward the sky, and six light swords descended from the sky, aiming at Ah Li¡¯s four limbs. Fang Yuan had seen this move when he first met Ouyang Xinglan. If one was hit by this move, one would lose the ability to move. Nine Tails now had self-awareness, and it no longer needed Fang Yuan to command it to fight. The moment the Light Sword descended from the sky, it gathered the darkness elements into a shield. This move was one of the top-tier skills of the darkness element. ¡ª The Black Demon Shield This shield surrounded Nine Tails¡¯ whole body. The Light Sword hit on the black shield, and the collision between the huge energy rippled, which ripples could be seen with naked eyes. One could imagine how strong the force was. The six Light Swords finally disappeared completely, Nine Tails also shed the body¡¯s shield. Next, it¡¯s the Nine Tails¡¯ offensive round. The other side was Holy Angel, which was the Light Angel type pet beast. It had special characteristics. First, the light and darkness attributes were actually mutually restraining. They could deal additional damage to all other elements, but they would restrain each other. Second, the Angel had immune control, and debuff status. Fang Yuan only knew all of this because he had the Pet Beast Guide. Nine Tails had also inherited this part of Fang Yuan¡¯s consciousness. It had activated the dark domain, which was a support skill. In this domain, Nine Tails¡¯ movement speed and attack power would increase. Moreover, it had another function, which was to weaken Holy Angel¡¯s own light power. In this domain, its power would also be limited. ¡°Hmph, a small trick.¡± Holy Angel raised its sword again. It did not even bother to dispel this dark domain, and continued to use its powerful light-type skill ¡ª Holy Light Bomb. Similar to Nine Tails, Holy Angel¡¯s wings could gather energy, and then gather it into energy, aiming at the target to design the attack. Another six light bombs. Fang Yuan vaguely felt that something was wrong. Could it be that because Holy Angel had six wings, therefore all the skills it used were related to six? However, Nine Tails didn¡¯t choose to set up a dark defensive barrier this time. Instead, it directly used the speed effect of the dark domain to hide. The Holy Light Bombs had the ability to automatically track the darkness. They did not lose their direction because Ah Li was hiding in the darkness. Instead, they converged towards a certain point. A loud explosion sounded, illuminating almost all of the dark domain. ¡°Is it over in this manner?¡± Holy Angel floating in the sky looked at the gradually spreading dark domain with disdain. ¡°Something¡¯s wrong.¡± At that moment, it felt a powerful force coming from the explosion. It cast a light shield effect. This was a low-level light-type defensive skill, so it didn¡¯t need much time to prepare. However, its effect was clearly insufficient. A colorful light shot out from the explosion. The light beam, which gathered five types of elemental energy, directly hit one of Holy Angel¡¯s wings. ¡°Beautiful!¡± Fang Yuan cheered loudly. Ah Li had been with him for a long time, so he had learned to use the environment to sneak attack his opponent. This made Fang Yuan very happy. No matter how much effect this attack could have, at least it would be beneficial to their morale. Holy Angel looked back at the wings that had been shot down, still burning with flames. It closed its eyes. Among light-type skills, there was no lack of healing magic. Its wings grew back at a speed visible to the naked eye. ¡°A good opportunity,¡± Fang Yuan shouted in his heart. He did not know if his words would reach Ah Li¡¯s ears. This healing skill was extremely powerful, and because of that, it consumed a lot of energy. This was a good opportunity to make a move. Just as Fang Yuan had this thought, Nine Tails, who was in stealth mode, suddenly appeared. Its target was the hand of Holy Angel holding the sword. As long as it bit it, Nine Tails was confident that it could tear it apart. Then, it would win! ¡°Hmph, do you think I will fall for it?¡± Holy Angel laughed disdainfully. It raised the sword with both of its hands, but its tail was still healing automatically. With Nine Tails¡¯ sprinting speed, as long as it swung the sword, it would be able to cut off its head. ¡°It¡¯s over.¡± Holy Angel¡¯s sword was suddenly enhanced by light. It became incomparably huge and was still flickering with golden light. The sword shadow slashed across Nine Tails¡¯ mouth, causing the guards present to sigh. ¡°We lost in this manner?¡± ¡°What a pity.¡± ¡°King is still a king.¡± But Holy Angel¡¯s pupils suddenly shrunk. It was true that its sword had indeed hit Nine Tails¡¯ head, but Nine Tails actually spread out. After Nine Tails was hit, it turned into a pool of water and scattered from the air to the ground. This was the ultimate support skill of the water element ¡ª Real Phantom. He used the water element to disguise into an image that was harmless but had its own aura. And the real Nine Tails¡­ Holy Light Angel felt a shadow appear on its hand. It looked up and saw a huge demon fox biting at it from above with a huge bloody mouth. Nine Tails had bitten Holy Angel¡¯s throat! For beast-type pets, biting the neck was basically a one-hit kill! Fang Yuan could not help but get excited. He did not expect the seemingly invincible Holy Angel to be killed so easily by Ah Li. Nine Tails pounced on Holy Angel, and the two pet beasts fell to the ground together from the air. The guardians of the arcane realm looked at each other. Did this mean¡­ Nine Tails had defeated Holy Angel and became the new King? Nine Tails continuously used its claws and mouth to attack Holy Angel on the ground. Huge dust could be seen rising up, but¡­ The guardians could not feel the King¡¯s aura being lost. They even felt that the King¡¯s aura was gradually becoming stronger. ¡°Ah Li, don¡¯t linger in battle. Use your strongest skill to kill her!¡± Fang Yuan saw Ah Li becoming crazier and crazier, and for some reason, a trace of fear rose in his heart. Was this really Ah Li? It looked like it was filled with hatred towards Holy Angel Beast, as if it wanted to tear it into pieces. But fortunately, Nine Tails still listened to Fang Yuan¡¯s words. It jumped back and began to prepare its strongest move, that was the ultimate damage skill that gathered seven types of elements ¡ª Void Bomb. When the elements were condensed to the extreme, they would appear transparent. The power of this energy ball actually penetrated the barrier. Chapter 186 - Fallen Angel Void Explosive Bomb! Nine Tails shot out all of its power at one go. This energy ball was the size of a football field, and it pressed down on the tiny Holy Angel on the ground. It was very confident that as long as this move hit its opponent, it would have no chance of survival. The air pressure in the arena had been changed, causing the scene outside to distort. ¡°Not good, quickly strengthen the barrier!¡± Old Man Tu shouted at the other guardians. The intensity of this energy had already exceeded his expectations. If he did not strengthen the barrier, not to mention the arcane realm would be affected, even the guardians would not be able to survive. After the other five guardians heard the order, they strengthened the barriers, allowing Fang Yuan to breathe normally. The moment they finished strengthening their barriers, an earth-shattering explosion occurred in the field. ¡°Boom!¡± Although the barriers could isolate the power, they could not completely isolate the sound. When they heard the explosion, they could not help but feel their hearts clench. It was as if an ordinary person had experienced the scene of the explosion, with lingering fear. The guardians of the arcane realm felt that the King¡¯s aura had disappeared, and the field gradually returned to calmness. Ah Li floated in the air, his eyes filled with dominance. ¡°Is the King dead?¡± The guardians of the arcane realm looked at each other. The King that they had always been afraid of but could not deal with had fallen? The other meaning was¡­ Nine Tails had become the new King? It seemed that Nine Tails and Fang Yuan had a pretty good relationship. Therefore, if Nine Tails became the King, it might be a good thing for the human world. However, just as everyone relaxed their vigilance, the stone slab that was destroyed by Ah Li in the arena loosened a little. A stone flew toward Nine Tails. Nine Tails looked at the stone in front of it and stretched out its tail disdainfully, swatting it away like it was swatting a fly. However, it didn¡¯t work as what it wanted. The moment its tail touched the stone, it felt as if its entire body was penetrated by an electric current, and it had a numb feeling. This was a feeling that it had never felt since it had evolved to Nine Tails. It looked at the ground vigilantly. Due to its energy attack just now, the ground had formed a vortex-like crack where lightning gathered at a single point. A dark figure stood up shakily. Then, it extended its wings. Holy Angel was actually still alive. However, its appearance seemed to have undergone an earth-shattering change. Nine Tails did not care about that. When it saw Holy Angel stand up, it immediately prepared the power of darkness. Before the dark domain dispersed, many black tentacles appeared around Holy Angel¡¯s body and wrapped around it. This was the Nether Grip skill. It was similar to the Tentacle Skill of Lutania. As long as it wrapped around Holy Angel, it would be torn apart! ¡°Stupid.¡± Holy Angel looked at the black tentacles surrounding its body, and it still had the same contemptuous attitude. The Nether Grip seemed to be afraid. It actually retreated from its body. ¡°This aura¡­¡± Fang Yuan could not believe it. As a human, he actually felt the aura of the ¡°King¡± that pet beast spoke of. It was as if he could order himself to die with just a thought. Fang Yuan found that he gradually could not control his mind. Instead, he kept having negative emotions like committing suicide. ¡°Ahhh!¡± It was not just Fang Yuan. The guardians also had the same emotions, especially Shuiwen, whose mental power was the weakest. ¡°Hold on!¡± The Fire Monk saw that Shuiwen was about to leave the barrier and shouted at him, ¡°If you leave, our entire world will be finished.¡± Shuiwen gritted his teeth. He no longer had the confident expression on his face. Fang Yuan was also dominated by negative emotions. Right now, he only wanted to kill, kill the guardians, kill Nine Tails, kill Holy Angel¡­ Kill all the creatures. He even wanted to summon Lutania and flatten everyone present. Then, he would use Gale Hound to turn everyone into ashes. Just as he was about to make his move, the mark on his hand lit up. Then, Fang Yuan woke up from the brutal aura. ¡°What am I doing?¡± Fang Yuan looked at his hand, and then saw that the guardians were gradually dying, with expressions of varying degrees of pain on their faces. Fang Yuan suddenly realized that his trainer¡¯s mark had the ability to suppress mental power, but he did not know how to transmit this power to the guardians. Unless¡­ they were willing to form a soul contract with him? His trainer¡¯s mark was only effective under two conditions. The first was to give it to his pet beast, and the second was to attack the other party. After defeating the other party, the other party could also attach the power to them. However, it seemed that none of these methods would work in the current situation. ¡°Fang Yuan¡­¡± Just as Fang Yuan was distressed, a voice called out to him from nowhere. ¡°Hmm?¡± Fang Yuan raised his head and looked around, but he could not find the source of the voice. ¡°Fang Yuan¡­ attach your mark to the barrier¡­¡± ¡°Attach it to the barrier?¡± Fang Yuan suddenly understood. He immediately summoned Lutania. It was the most suitable. ¡°Lutania, attack the barrier of the arena!¡± Fang Yuan ordered. Although Lutania did not appear in reality, he saw everything that happened. However, he did not understand what Fang Yuan wanted to do. ¡°What do you want to do? If the barrier is broken, I don¡¯t have the ability to stop that black thing.¡± ¡°It won¡¯t. Trust me.¡± Fang Yuan did not explain further. Lutania did not hesitate and immediately waved its tentacles to attack the barrier. Every wave of its tentacles had the effect of shaking the earth and mountains. The guardians looked at Fang Yuan in confusion. They thought that Fang Yuan had been controlled by the King¡¯s will and had become a lackey of the demon race. ¡°Fang Yuan, calm down!¡± Old Man Tu spat out a mouthful of blood and shouted at Fang Yuan. ¡°Trust me!¡± As Lutania struck again, a crack appeared on the barrier. ¡°Now!¡± Fang Yuan immediately attached the trainer¡¯s mark to the barrier. The surging of the broken barrier suddenly calmed down. The funny thing was that there was a green symbol on the transparent barrier. It looked like it had been patched. Shuiwen stood up straight. He was no longer affected by the violent emotions. So that was how it was. The guardians had figured out Fang Yuan¡¯s thoughts. Moreover, Fang Yuan¡¯s trainer¡¯s mark seemed to have the effect of strengthening the barrier. It was calm outside the barrier as if nothing had happened. In fact, the battle in the arena had already begun. Holy Angel¡¯s current condition had completely changed. It did not have golden wings on its back, but black wings. It floated back into the air. ¡°Perhaps I should thank you¡­¡± As it spoke, a few streaks of black fog wrapped around Nine Tails. Chapter 187 - Crushing Power The level of a Legendary pet beast was not easy to define. Whether it was a human or a demon, they would list all pet beasts that could not be controlled at the Legendary realm. In fact, Holy Angel was a Legendary pet beast, but it had a higher state. It was created after the domain died ¡ª Fallen Angel! ¡°If even light can not save your souls, then you can only use death to end your sins.¡± This power was neither darkness nor a superpower, but in the true sense of the word ¡ª death. After Nine Tails was surrounded by the black fog, it felt its life force being extracted, and the extracted life force was clearly flowing to the fallen angel. Fallen Angel¡¯s face was expressionless. It did not feel happy about absorbing the new power. Instead, it revealed a sorrowful expression. Nine Tails used the Holy Light Shield in the end to disperse the black fog. However, it had already lost a lot of its stamina. ¡°Nine Tails!¡± Fang Yuan saw that Nine Tails¡¯ stamina was exhausted, he immediately took out a bottle of Holy Spirit Medicine from his backpack and threw at it. The barrier of the arena could not stop a physical body, but it was mainly used to seal energy. Nine Tails also recognized this thing. It relied on the Holy Spirit Medicine to defeat countless opponents that it did not even dare to think of in the past. It gathered the power of the wind and prepared to rush towards the Holy Spirit Medicine. However, the Holy Spirit Medicine was pulled by the wind and flew directly into the fallen angel¡¯s hand. It did not consume the medicine but crushed it in its hand. It gnashed its teeth and said, ¡°The Holy Spirit Medicine is a sin potion made with the blood of our Angel Clan, you b*stards.¡± It was the first time it saw the angel¡¯s emotions fluctuate. Ever since it evolved into a fallen angel, it no longer used a sword as a weapon, but instead used sharp claws. A black light appeared in its hand and pointed at Nine Tails. The black light rushed toward Nine Tails, it was like a shield that wrapped around Nine Tails. Nine Tails clearly knew that this was not its own power. It used all the power it could control, but it was unable to disperse it. It even felt that it could no longer gather its power. ¡°This is death.¡± If Holy Angel¡¯s face at the beginning still had a kind look, the fallen angel now was a god of death from hell. Especially after being stimulated, its face looked unusually ferocious and terrifying. ¡°Death Entangle!¡± The black light held up Nine Tails, and the power of death rushed to Nine Tails, which made it very painful. It¡¯s not an attack, it¡¯s a method of execution. If not for the the fact that Nine Tails itself is very strong, It¡¯s afraid that it had been dead. ¡°Detestable!¡± Fang Yuan saw that Nine Tails¡¯ eyes gradually became unfocused, he could not bear it any longer. The arena¡¯s rule was, as long as the trainer could still summon pet beast, the fight could go on until the last moment. ¡°Lutania, go and help it!¡± ¡°Oh!¡± As Fang Yuan¡¯s spirit moved, Lutania was teleported into the arena. It stretched out its tentacles to snatch Nine Tails, but it was repelled by the power of death. ¡°Fang Yuan, I can¡¯t get close to this power.¡± Lutania reported. Just now, it had tried to save Ah Li, but it had undoubtedly failed. ¡°What kind of power is that?¡± Fang Yuan did not understand clearly the so-called attack method of Death Entanglement. If he knew what it was, he would have a way to break it. ¡°I don¡¯t know. I only know that if I get close to it, I will be repelled.¡± Lutania was not in the mood to answer Fang yuan, because the fallen angel was already staring at it. ¡°Lutania, you used to be a legend in the demon world.¡± The fallen angel did not attack directly. Instead, it said with a hint of disdain, ¡°But now you¡¯re actually willing to work for humans?¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter who you work for. As long as you have sufficient food and drink, it¡¯s fine.¡± Lutania retorted, ¡°I¡¯m not like you, who has such lofty ambitions. I¡¯m just an old man who wants to spend his days in the Sun.¡± Fang Yuan wanted to laugh when he heard that. He did not expect Lutania to see itself this way. However, Fang Yuan knew that Lutania cared a lot about strength. It cared more about the limits of strength than any pet beast. ¡°That¡¯s why you¡¯ll never reach the peak of strength.¡± The fallen angel controlled Nine Tails with one hand and pointed at Lutania with the other. ¡°I¡¯ll give you a chance to regret.¡± ¡°You¡¯re overthinking.¡± Lutania squatted down. It looked like a mountain on its back, but it was actually a huge flower bud. When it squatted down, it could release its strongest attack skill, which was also a top-tier grass-type attack skill ¡ª Random Needle Confused Acupoint! The reason why Random Needle Confused Acupoint was used was that this skill would release tens of thousands of needle-like stamens. The strength of these stamens was about the same as the feathers of Star Steel Gryphon. But the most terrifying thing was that they were huge in number and very small in size. It was difficult to see them with the naked eye. This was the second time that Lutania had used this skill. The last time was when he was fighting with Gaia. He believed that this skill of his was definitely the number one physical damage skill in the pet world. No pet beast could withstand it. The reason why it had lost to Gaia was because it had the rules. If the rules could not be used in this arena, then this skill was definitely an ultimate skill that could kill people of a higher level! The flower stamens that covered the entire arena completely surrounded the fallen angel along with Lutania¡¯s consciousness. Then, they charged towards the fallen angel together. It hit! Fallen Angel released Nine Tails and used its elbow to block its body. This move was effective. Fang Yuan sighed. Lutania had not even stepped into the Legendary realm, but it could actually fight with a Legendary pet beast. When it truly entered this realm, how powerful would it be? After a round of attacks, Fallen Angel¡¯s entire body was filled with needles. It looked extremely pathetic. However, its eyes were still filled with indifference and hatred. ¡°Death Shackles¡± Just as Lutania looked at the fallen angel in confusion, it had already used three pairs of black handcuffs to tie Lutania¡¯s claws to the ground. Ludania struggled for a while, but found that it was completely unable to escape. It finally understood the feeling of Nine Tails just now. Being entangled by this power, it was unable to use any skills. Could it only passively wait for death? The fallen angel flew into the air and shook its body like a bird falling into the water. All the needles fell off, and it was now as if nothing had happened. It could not be said that it was completely fine, but there was more anger in its eyes. ¡°Now, I want to judge you, a sinner.¡± It raised its hand and conjured a black trident. ¡°Perhaps the darkness will pity you, but I won¡¯t.¡± Fang Yuan had definitely heard this line before, but he could not recall it. However, he knew that if the trident hit Lutania¡¯s head, it would probably not able to survive. Chapter 188 - Fighting Side by Side ¡°Roar!¡± Just as Lutania closed its eyes waiting for death, Nine Tails suddenly rushed in front of it and sent the trident flying. No one knew what kind of power the trident had. When Nine Tails touched the edge of the trident, a burn mark appeared on its hand. However, it was very strange. The wound did not bleed, as if it was an old wound. ¡°I understand now.¡± At this moment, Fang Yuan saw the power clearly. He now also understood the true meaning of what the woman had told him when the mark was awakened. ¡°Ah Li, can you listen to my command and fight?¡± Fang Yuan sent his will into Ah Li¡¯s heart through enchantment. In actual fact, after Ah Li entered the Legendary realm, Fang Yuan almost no longer play any role in its battle. Just like what Xinyu had told him before, the battle memory and bloodline of the ancestors were incomparable to that of the trainers. But now, Fang Yuan actually requested to command Nine Tails. Did he feel that he was more powerful than Nine Tails¡¯ ancestors? The guardians all felt that it was inconceivable. But what was even more inconceivable was that Nine Tails let out a low whimper. This clearly meant that it had agreed. ¡°Very good, let us fight side by side again.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes and began to use his trainer skills. Circulation. On the surface, it was the repeated use of mental power and vitality, But the true meaning was that life and death were endless. Since the power of Fallen Angel was death, then the power of Circulation was life. True enough, after using the Circulation skill, Nine Tails¡¯ wound miraculously healed. ¡°What?¡± The fallen angel did not dare to believe its eyes. What kind of ability was this? It believed that even the strongest healing skill would not be able to revive something that was already dead. This was the terrifying aspect of the power of death. It could directly determine death and not use its power to gradually destroy it. A faint green light appeared on Ah Li¡¯s body. It was the same for Lutania. When they gathered together, the light became even more dazzling. ¡°The power of death is actually no different from the power of elements.¡± Fang Yuan said quietly. ¡°I remember when I was fighting with Gaia, it used the power of time.¡± ¡°At that time, I had been thinking about how to break the power of time, but because I had been obsessed with it, I almost killed my friend.¡± At this time, Fang Yuan had already walked into the arena. He came to Ah Li¡¯s side and stroked its nose. ¡°Fang Yuan, you!¡± The guardians of the arcane realm did not notice that Fang Yuan had entered the arena without them noticing. Did he want to die? As long as Fallen Angel noticed Fang Yuan and killed him, the game would be over! How could this person be so reckless? However, Fang Yuan acted as if nothing had happened. Ah Li was even more intimate like a pet, licking and rubbing Fang Yuan. Fallen Angel felt disgusted. ¡°Since you¡¯ve come to the arena, it means that you also want to challenge the position of King.¡± Fallen Angel reached out her hand, intending to use the death coil to deal with Fang Yuan. ¡°You have to be prepared to die at any time.¡± The black light spread from the fallen angel¡¯s hand to Fang Yuan. As long as it could cover Fang Yuan, with his human body, he would be instantly turned into ashes. However¡­ When the black light approached Fang Yuan, the green light on Fang Yuan¡¯s body devoured it instead. This was not the end. The green light seemed to have gained life as it spread out in all directions. The originally bare stone slabs in the arena actually grew plants under the encirclement of the green light¡­ Flowers and grass grew out from the cracks between the rocks, forming a strange environment. ¡°This¡­¡± Fallen Angel could not believe its eyes. It tried to use Judgement on Fang Yuan again, but the effect was the same. The plants in the arena grew even more luxuriant, and even saplings began to grow. ¡°The end of life is death, and the end of death is rebirth.¡± Fang Yuan said calmly, ¡°I¡¯ve already seen through your move, Fallen Angel. I¡¯m going to defeat you now!¡± ¡°Ah Li, use your Gale Steps Skill to increase your speed to the maximum.¡± Since it knew that the attack on the opponent was ineffective, Fallen Angel no longer did anything useless. The most important thing now was to get rid of Nine Tails first. In the entire arena, it was the only thing that could threaten it. At first, it thought that Fang Yuan had some special tactics, but it turned out that he was still using the sneak attack method. After Ah Li used Gale Steps, it entered the stealth mode. It was more suitable for dealing with physical-type pets, but for an energy-type pet like Fallen Angel, there was not much difference whether it was invisible or not. Fallen Angel first used the power of death to add a shield to its entire body. The effect of this shield was the same as the dark entanglement that Lutania had encountered just now. Unless it was the power of death and life, otherwise, it would not be able to penetrate this layer of defense and hurt her. The moment that Ah Li showed up, it would be able to capture it and then use its strongest move ¡ª Death Judgement ¡ª to cut off Ah Li¡¯s head. He knew that Fang Yuan could resurrect the dead, but it was only in the form of a pet egg. This move had to be used together with Death Shackles to kill Ah Li in one hit. It definitely had no way of defending against it. ¡°Ah Li, get ready to use Perfect Mirror skill now, but I hope you can use nine mirrors at the same time. Can you do it?¡± Ah Li was currently in stealth mode. Hearing Fang Yuan¡¯s whimsical thoughts, it did not know how to respond. ¡°You just have to trust me.¡± Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled! Fallen Angel was focused on searching for Nine Tails¡¯ position, but her face was struck by lightning, leaving a gash. ¡°How did you do it?¡± Fallen Angel looked angrily at Ah Li, who had just broken out of Gale Step. Her defensive skill had actually been broken by this low-level lightning skill. However, Fallen Angel had caught Ah Li during the gap between attacks. ¡°Death Shackle!¡± A pair of handcuffs with the aura of death flew towards Ah Li. ¡°Gotcha!¡± Fallen Angel revealed a smug smile, but it quickly froze. That was because it was not the real Ah Li, but an illusion made of water. ¡°Can real illusions also deal damage?¡± Fallen Angel was not a fool. It naturally knew the effect of the ultimate water-type support skill, but what was with that lightning? Just as it was hesitating, another flame pierced through the death shield and hit the other side of its cheek. Fallen Angel reacted even faster this time. It directly used the fastest death coil to attack its opponent. However, it was still Ah Li¡¯s illusion. ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Fallen Angel looked at the scene in front of it in disbelief. It was already the seventh illusion. It had been hit by different elemental attacks. Although it was not injured, it still felt very unhappy. Chapter 189 - The King’s Will ¡°Ahhhh!¡± The fallen angel understood that if this were to continue, even if it was not killed by Ah Li, it would be tormented into a lunatic. It had to use an AOE attack skill, which was the sound wave attack it was using. This was not the power of death, but it was infused with the power of death. As long as the life force was covered by this sound wave attack, it would be attacked by the voice of hell! Even if it could not be instantly killed, it was still useful to delay their attacks. True enough, this attack directly destroyed three of Ah Li¡¯s illusions, and the remaining one was undoubtedly Ah Li¡¯s real body. ¡°Death Bind!¡± The fallen angel was already frightened by Ah Li¡¯s illusions. It did not dare to directly use its strongest skill, but instead it used a skill that could be quickly cast to capture Ah Li. This time, it captured the real Ah Li. ¡°Hahaha, I got you.¡± Fallen Angel was already in a crazy state. Since Ah Li couldn¡¯t move now, it had to use its strongest Death Judgement skill. A huge black sickle appeared in its hand. At this moment, it was like a real death god from hell. Ah Li was suppressed by the power of death and could not raise its head. The sickle was like a guillotine that was approaching its neck. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you think you can defeat me?¡± The fallen angel laughed crazily. ¡°Now I¡¯ll show you what despair is.¡± ¡°Ah Li, use that skill.¡± Fang Yuan called out to Ah Li in his heart. Although it was not fully formed, it should be enough to defeat the fallen angel. When Ah Li heard this, it stopped struggling and responded to the power in the space. When Fallen Angel saw that Ah Li had stopped struggling, it thought that it had already given up on the competition. It did not expect that Ah Li was calling out the power of the elements¡­ This move was what Fang Yuan had thought of when he watched the battle of Holy Angel. The battle plan of Holy Angel was actually very perfect. It always pretended that its strength was not low, but in fact, it was casting a mark on its opponent. After the six marks were stacked, it could use the Holy Light Sanction skill to kill Ah Li in one go. However, it had miscalculated Ah Li¡¯s strength, which was why it was killed by Ah Li. What Fang Yuan had asked Ah Li to do just now was to use different powers to break the rules of death. The rules of death were very simple. It was to completely counteract the damage of one element. However, If it was a mixture of elemental damage, it could not block it. Ah Li, who had nine elements, was undoubtedly its nemesis. ¡°Elemental Explosion!¡± What Ah Li had just done was to attach the power of the elements to every part of the fallen angel¡¯s body. In this way, the death shield on the fallen angel¡¯s body would lose its effect when it had multiple elements. That was because it was detonating the power within the shield! The six elements of wind, water, fire, earth, grass, and thunder gushed out of Fallen Angel¡¯s body. Even before its sickle could fall, the fallen angel¡¯s eyes widened and it fell heavily to the ground with a look of disbelief. Ah Li felt that the power restraining it had disappeared. It immediately rushed toward the fallen angel, wanting to give it a fatal blow. ¡°Amazing.¡± The fallen angel had lost the power to resist now. At least it was impossible to deal with Ah Li. It simply gave up resisting. Fang Yuan followed Ah Li to its front. ¡°Is there pity in your eyes?¡± The corner of the fallen angel¡¯s mouth twitched, but the it still had a disdainful expression toward Fang Yuan. ¡°Sort of,¡± Fang Yuan said. ¡°Actually, I¡¯ve heard your story from your former King.¡± ¡°It¡¯s all in the past,¡± the fallen angel sneered. ¡°Do it. Kill me, and then you¡¯ll become the new King.¡± Nine Tails was restless, as if it wanted to take action immediately. If Fang Yuan had not stopped it, it would not have been able to control its emotions. ¡°That¡¯s what your mark means, the cycle.¡± The fallen angel looked at the mark on Fang Yuan¡¯s hand and mocked, ¡°Do you think you can end this curse? You¡¯re wrong. What you can do is the same as your skill, it¡¯s just an endless cycle.¡± ¡°It won¡¯t be the same.¡± Fang Yuan actually extended his hand to the fallen angel. ¡°You?¡± The fallen angel¡¯s eyes were filled with shock. Was Fang Yuan not afraid of death? Did he not know his own strength or¡­ Did he believe in it? One must know that the moment he shook hands, as long as it wanted, there were countless ways to kill Fang Yuan. Nine Tails looked at Fallen Angel vigilantly. The moment it did anything that crossed the line, Nine Tails would kill it without hesitation. ¡°Why?¡± It did not shake hands with Fang Yuan directly, but it felt that Fang Yuan was indeed different from others. It wanted to see the answer in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes. ¡°You¡¯ll know when you hold my hand.¡± Fang Yuan smiled, ignoring its objection. The moment it touched Fang Yuan¡¯s hand, Fallen Angel came to a strange world. ¡°The aura on your body¡­ Are you¡­ the King?¡± A girl from the Green Tribe was carrying a washing basin after washing clothes by the river. When she saw the muddy man, she revealed a terrified expression. ¡°Yes, it¡¯s me.¡± Fallen Angel stood up shakily. Her body was really in pain. She didn¡¯t know what Fang Yuan had done to bring her to this strange place. Soon, the little girl came over with a group of people. These were the people from the demon tribes. When they saw the fallen angel, they looked at each other and then knelt down. ¡°Didn¡¯t Fang Yuan kill all of you?¡± ¡°We weren¡¯t killed by Fang Yuan. We¡¯re in his pet space now.¡± ¡°Pet space?¡± Fallen Angel looked around. This was an open world, unlike a pet space. Fallen Angel had been captured when it was still at bronze-rank. It had even signed a soul contract, so it had seen the real appearance of the pet space. ¡°Is this really the pet space?¡± ¡°Yes, King.¡± Vera stood out from the crowd and said to the fallen angel, ¡°King has always wanted to help us seize the land. Now that Fang Yuan has given it to us, can we stop the war with the humans?¡± ¡°No, if this is the pet space, the moment Fang Yuan dies, everything will turn into nothingness.¡± The fallen angel rejected Vera¡¯s suggestion. ¡°We still have to take back the land that belongs to us.¡± ¡°Besides, I don¡¯t want to see my pet beasts being exploited by humans anymore.¡± ¡°Picker?¡± A little picker appeared under her feet, while Extreme Electric Picker quickly ran over and snatched it back, looking at the fallen angel with hostility. However, the little picker was very naughty. It broke away from Extreme Electric Picker¡¯s embrace and rushed into Fallen Angel¡¯s embrace. It rubbed its head against its body. The fallen angel also smiled and gently stroked picker, making Extreme Electric Picker smile as well¡­ ¡°So the King is also a gentle person¡­¡± Vera thought. At this moment, the fallen angel was disconnected from the pet space. ¡°Are you willing to lead the pet to a new era?¡± ¡°Hmph.¡± The fallen angel stood up and smiled, ¡°Of course, but I want to give you something¡­¡± However, just as he was about to hand it over to Fang Yuan, two tentacles grabbed it. The Fallen Angel was caught off guard. He was lifted into the air just like that, and then¡­ He was swallowed by Lutania! Chapter 190 - The Legendary Lutania Lutania had always had a special ability, devour. When it swallowed a pet beast that was of a higher grade than it was, it would enter a higher grade. At this time, Lutania had already reached the peak of the King Realm. After it swallowed the Legendary fallen angel, it naturally came to its final form. Fang Yuan definitely did not give such an order to Lutania. Why did it do such a thing? Lutania¡¯s body size was already close to a tall mountain. After evolving again, Fang Yuan could no longer see its top. It was now a real mountain. Even the lizard at the bottom was twenty meters tall! ¡°Nero! What are you doing?¡± Fang Yuan was a little afraid because a dangerous aura came from Lutania¡¯s body. Ludania had already entered its ultimate state. It spat out its tongue in satisfaction and said with a smile, ¡°Thank you, Fang Yuan, for sending me here.¡± Ah Li also felt that the situation was not right. It blocked in front of Fang Yuan and let out a low cry to show its threat to Lutania. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you know who I am?¡± Lutania¡¯s eyes were like the Red Moon in the demon world, staring at Fang Yuan who was at a loss. Fang Yuan shook his head. He really did not know who Ludania was. ¡°You really don¡¯t know me, but I know you.¡± Lutania smiled. Then, it changed its tone and said, ¡°Fang Yuan ~¡± ¡°You!¡± Fang Yuan immediately recognized the voice. Wasn¡¯t this the father who abandoned hims and his mother to find the truth of the pet beast world? ¡°You¡¯re my father?¡± Fang Yuan felt that it was strange to say this, but he really wanted to know the answer right now. ¡°You know my ability.¡± Lutania smiled sinisterly. ¡°It¡¯s devour!¡± Fang Yuan gnashed his teeth and said, ¡°You devoured my father?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡±Lutania said, ¡°I¡¯m really lucky. This is the first time I know that devouring humans actually has an effect. However, humans are really terrible to eat. They¡¯re completely inferior to insect-type pets.¡± Fang Yuan clenched his hands. He began to try to use the soul contract to restrain Lutania, but somehow Lutania actually cut off the contact with him. Black transparent tentacles grew out of Lutania¡¯s back. That was the power of death! ¡°Although I had a very happy time traveling with you, now I have to destroy you and your Nine Tails.¡± ¡°Death Strike!¡± It stretched out hundreds of black tentacles and slapped Fang Yuan and Ah Li who were on the ground. Ah Li blocked in front of Fang Yuan and used the Holy Light Shield to block alone. This was the only way it knew to block death damage. However, every time the tentacles hit the Holy Light Shield, Ah Li would be forced to take a step back. The Holy Light Shield would also be hit by a golden light, as if it would crack at any time. ¡°Ah Li, hold on.¡± Fang Yuan was far away from Ah Li just now, so he could not use the Holy Spirit Medicine. But now, Fang Yuan could directly throw the Holy Spirit medicine into Ah Li¡¯s mouth. He did not know who actually was stronger, Ah Li or Lutania, but he had to let Ah Li maintain its peak condition in order to win. The guardians who activated the enchantment felt that their strength could no longer support Lutania¡¯s strength. Not only did it have the power of the fallen angel, but its own strength was also very strong. ¡°Fang Yuan, we can¡¯t hold on any longer. Do you have confidence in Ah Li?¡± Fang Yuan nodded. He understood what the guardians meant. Once the enchantment was removed, it meant that the battle between them would no longer be between ordinary pet beasts, but rules. If Ah Li¡¯s rules were energy conversion, what would be Lutania¡¯s rules? He could not imagine it at all. But seeing the exhausted guardians and the burst capillaries on their bodies, Fang Yuan knew that they could not hold on any longer. ¡°Open up enchantment and let Ah Li and Nero have a fair duel!¡± Fang Yuan shouted. He did not know if he had made the right decision, but he could only bet on Ali to win. In front of the rules, the other pet beasts were of no use. ¡°Nero, I am very disappointed in you.¡± Fang Yuan looked at Lutania with an indifferent gaze. ¡°I have always thought of you as a good teacher and a good friend.¡± ¡°Am I not the same?¡± There seemed to be a reluctance in Lutania¡¯s tone, but it was fleeting and turned into a kind of brutality. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you want to know the truth about the pet beast world?¡± The guardians released the enchantment, and Ah Li felt the power of rules returning. Especially after taking the two Holy Spirit Medicine. It directly flew into the air with the power of wind and carried Fang Yuan on its back, avoiding the attack of Lutania¡¯s tentacles. ¡°In the world of pet beasts, the fittest survive.¡± Lutania also felt some kind of power changing in its body¡­ That was the rule of death!! Ah Li could turn any attack it received into its own energy and absorb it into its body. Lutania¡¯s rule was to turn all the life it touched into ashes. It was so excited that it roared at the sky. That sound was like a symphony from hell. As it was too crazy, Lutania seemed to be unable to speak. All its sounds became the hissing sound from the lizard¡¯s throat. A series of black lasers shot out from its back. The target was clearly Ah Li who was in the air. Of course, the guardians were not spared. They had no choice but to crawl on the ground to avoid the death laser. They knew that once they were hit by the laser, there was only death. ¡°Ah Li! Get out of the way!¡± Ah Li originally had the power of rules. It did not care about the laser at all. Instead, it intended to use its body to withstand the damage. However, Fang Yuan could tell that this laser was not an energy attack at all. It was purely condensing the law into the shape of energy and shooting it out. After Ah Li heard Fang Yuan¡¯s order, it immediately gave up on the idea of fighting head-on. It folded itself into light and shuttled between the beams of light. Only then did Fang Yuan know the strength of Huang¡¯ groups ¡®listening¡¯ skill. If not for this state, he would have died countless times. He could even feel the relaxed feeling after his body turned into light. He could also clearly see the trajectory of the black light beam and easily dodge it. Any human who had learned this skill could become a Superman as long as they nurtured a powerful pet beast. Perhaps seeing that this skill was ineffective against Ah Li, after attacking for a period of time, Lutania stood up and stopped the death laser attack. It had many moves, including the ones it had learned from the Alloyed Tyrannosaurus. ¡ª Tremor! If the roar just now was from hell, then this roar was from another world that was darker than hell! Chapter 191 - Death Although Ah Li was immune to all energy attacks, it did not mean that it was immune to mental attacks. It was known that although Legendary pet beasts were collectively known as Legendary Pet Beasts, there was still a difference in levels. The fallen angel that Lutania had devoured was above Ah Li, so its level must be above Ah Li as well. Therefore, the suppression effect was very obvious. Ah Li could no longer use its ¡°Flowing Light¡± skill, which was a super powerful skill that could turn itself into a state of light. Its speed and evasion had reached the limits of the world. Ah Li had revealed its original form. Although it could further increase its movement speed by buffing its wind state, Lutania was not a weakling either. How could it let go of such a good opportunity? ¡°Death Whip¡± Lutania saw that Ah Li¡¯s movements had slowed down, so it used its first attack again. Its tentacles that covered the mountains and plains lashed towards Ah Li. As it entered the shock mode, Ah Li¡¯s strength had decreased by quite a bit. The Holy Light Shield it had activated had also dimmed quite a bit. After three attacks, it actually shattered! ¡°Quick, dodge!¡± Ah Li, who had rich combat experience, naturally knew this. However, its speed was simply unable to keep up with its opponent. It lashed out a whip at Ah Li¡¯s face. The power of death was indeed terrifying. Where Ah Li had been attacked, an old scar had appeared. It was as if that place had been cut by a knife before, and no flesh had grown back. This wound was obviously not something that could be healed by any healing skill. However, this little wound was not enough to take Ah Li¡¯s life. It then stepped into the air, and flew high up to the sky leaving the attack range of the tentacles. It was already above the clouds. Fang Yuan riding the gryphon had never reached this height before. He felt that it was difficult to breathe. ¡°Hang in there, Fang Yuan.¡± Ah Li¡¯s voice rang in Fang Yuan¡¯s mind. When he used the listening skill, Fang Yuan could hear the thoughts of these pet beasts. ¡°Ah Li, can your power of rule defeat it?¡± Ah Li shook his head and said, ¡°I¡¯m afraid not. Its power doesn¡¯t belong to this world at all. It¡¯s not an energy law that I can control.¡± Fang Yuan also had Ah Li¡¯s vision at that moment. He saw Lutania on the ground looking up at them. Not only did it look up, it also opened its bloody mouth. There was purplish-black energy gathering in its mouth¡­ Not good, must leave this place immediately. It immediately dodged to the side at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. It should be three to four hundred meters away from its previous position. Then¡­ Fang Yuan saw a huge beam of light piercing through the clouds and shooting directly into the sky¡­ At this moment, in the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, Su Han and the others had just cleared out the small monsters at the entrance of the demon world. They were kneeling on the ground and breathing heavily. However, they saw even more pet beasts of the demon world fleeing out. The grades of these pet beasts were obviously higher than King. Su Han thought to himself, he was hailed as a rare genius of the Su family in a hundred years, but he actually felt as powerless as he did today. He closed his eyes. These pet beasts were simply impossible for him to stop. Xu Fei, Xinyu, Lin Wei, and the others all had the same thought. Their faces were deathly pale. However, what they didn¡¯t expect was that these pet beasts actually didn¡¯t attack them. Instead, they fled in all directions. What shocked them even more was that a huge force came out of the devil world cave, causing the arcane realm of Heavenly Secret Pavilion to start shaking. ¡°Will there be an earthquake in the arcane realm, too?¡± Su Han was originally kneeling on the ground. This strong vibration made him directly lie on the ground. However, the vibration soon disappeared. ¡°Oh my God¡­¡± Su Han¡¯s pupils had already shrunk to a small point. ¡°What kind of battle is Fang Yuan facing? Just the energy leaking out is enough to make a King-level pet beast feel threatened, and it even spread outside Heavenly Secret Pavilion¡­¡± ¡°Maybe this is the difference between a genius and a mortal.¡± Xu Fei sat on the ground, unable to believe that he dared to provoke Fang Yuan back then. Even if he had a hundred more guts, he wouldn¡¯t dare to do this now. Xinyu looked at the cave worriedly. ¡°Fang Yuan, you have to come back alive.¡± On the other side of the battlefield, Lutania¡¯s attack just now was too shocking. Fang Yuan though was not hit by the energy attack, was sent flying. After dodging three attacks consecutively, Lutania seemed to be tired. ¡°Ah Li, we now have an opportunity to attack.¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°Can we still use energy detonation?¡± Ah Li responded to Fang Yuan with its actions. It immediately used water clone skill on itself and entered Gale Steps. Although it could not use the ultimate skill, the low-level skills could still be used casually. It descended from the sky. Due to the few attacks just now, Lutania had entered a short period of exhaustion. However, Fang Yuan still had underestimated its recovery rate. As soon as Ah Li¡¯s illusion appeared, Fang Yuan noticed that Lutania had revealed a smile that was as strange as a human¡¯s. Its entire body was like a hedgehog. Countless black spikes extended out and pierced through all of Ah Li¡¯s clones, including Ah Li¡¯s main body. Obviously, this included Fang Yuan as well¡­ Fang Yuan vomited a mouthful of blood. He looked at the hole in his chest, as if he had never had any organs before. It was perfect without a flaw¡­ Ah Li and Fang Yuan then fell from the sky. Lutania was ecstatic. It roared at the sky again, but this time, it was not a skill. It was purely to vent the joy in its heart! ¡­ ¡°Is Fang Yuan finished?¡± Feng Ling, who had always been extremely silent, looked at Fang Yuan and Ah Li¡¯s falling bodies with a sad expression. ¡°Lutania still became the King of the demon world.¡± The Fire monk closed his eyes. According to the prophecy of their guardians, Lutania became the King of the demon world would mean that the balance between the pet beasts and the human world was broken. In the current real world. A little girl who had just awakened her pet beast was playing with her little Wind Sparrow. The little Wind Sparrow¡¯s eyes turned red. ¡°Xiao Ling, what has happened to you?¡± The little girl looked at the little Wind Sparrow in confusion. Just a moment ago, they were happily playing a chase game, but at this moment, the little Wind Sparrow actually stopped moving. It seemed to be in great pain and was constantly resisting. ¡°Ji ji ji¡­¡± The little Wind Sparrow used its head to hit the little girl, desperately trying to chase the little girl into the room. It had no choice but to peck the little girl. The little girl cried out. She wanted to summon the little Wind Sparrow back to the pet space but was unable to do so. She had no choice but to hide in the room. Just as she hid in the room, the little Wind Sparrow suddenly grew in size, directly rising from black iron grade to gold grade. It roared, flapping its wings and causing a tornado! And its target was actually the little girl¡¯s home! Chapter 192 - The Final Strengthening Fang Yuan¡­ Fang Yuan¡­ The soft calls woke Fang Yuan up from his dream. ¡°Where am I¡­¡± Fang Yuan felt a sharp pain in his body. He then remembered that he had been pierced through the chest by Lutania. ¡°Am I dead?¡± Fang Yuan tried to move his body. His whole body was numb as if he had been electrocuted by Pick. He could not move at all. He could not stand up, but he looked at his surroundings. This was an empty space. There was no sky, no earth, only darkness. ¡°Fang Yuan¡­¡± The voice came from the darkness again. ¡°Who is it?¡± Fang Yuan tried to answer the voice. He only felt that his eyelids were very heavy and he could not open them. But he knew that if he closed his eyes, he might never wake up again. ¡°Fang Yuan¡­ Please remember who you are¡­¡± the voice finally had a new content. ¡°Who am I¡­¡± Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes were like a running lantern. It was a memory from when he was young, Chuxin Town, the first time he awakened the Shadow Wolf, his mother gave him her Healing Bee Queen, the first time he fought in the black market¡­ Scenes appeared in front of him one after another. Fang Yuan¡¯s mouth had a bitter sour taste. It was probably tears that had flowed into his mouth. The Shadow Wolf walked out of the illusion and licked Fang Yuan¡¯s face. The feeling was extremely real. Fang Yuan wanted to touch its head, but he could not raise his hand. ¡°Xiao Ying, I¡¯m sorry. I let you taste the taste of death in your battle with Su Han.¡± The second pet beast that appeared was his mother¡¯s Healing Bee Queen. It was now the Spirit Healing Bee Queen. It was trying to use healing skills on Fang Yuan, but no matter how it used its skills, it could not heal Fang Yuan¡¯s injuries. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I didn¡¯t even have time to give you a name¡­ As you¡¯re Mother¡¯s pet, I don¡¯t like to let you go to the battlefield¡­¡± The third pet that appeared was the Star Iron War Bear. The former Titan Bear had helped him make outstanding battle achievements at the front line. ¡°You really love to steal honey. No wonder the queen bee especially doesn¡¯t like you.¡± One pet after another appeared beside Fang Yuan, as if they were saying goodbye to him. ¡°Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin¡­ thank you, I¡¯ve always treated you guys like mounts¡­ Actually, I really like you guys, especially your Destructive Storm. It¡¯s also the only fusion skill I know.¡± Fang Yuan bid farewell to his pet beasts one by one. After Fang Yuan bid farewell, each pet beast would disappear into the darkness. ¡°There are still two pet beasts that haven¡¯t appeared yet¡­¡± Fang Yuan thought to himself. ¡°They might never appear again.¡± One was Ah Li, and the other was Lutania. Fang Yuan felt his body begin to become heavy. Perhaps this was the feeling of death¡­ ¡°Fang Yuan, please remember who you are!¡± That distant voice seemed to have become stronger. Fang Yuan raised his head again, and his eyes couldn¡¯t help but widen. As the memories he displayed this time were actually his memories from before he was reborn. Playing Pokemon alone at home, playing with friends, the smiles of his parents, and the girl he once he had a crush on¡­ ¡°I am¡­¡± ¡°Fang Yuan, you are the chosen one, so you can¡¯t fall here.¡± Fang Yuan heard this clearly. ¡°I don¡¯t want to fall, but what can I do?¡± Fang Yuan sighed. A scroll was thrown in front of Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan took a closer look. It was the goddess he had met when he awakened the mark. ¡°You are?¡± ¡°I am the God of Life in this world.¡± ¡°So there is really God in this world.¡± Fang Yuan laughed. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that at the last moment of my life, I finally saw the truth of the pet beast world. So there¡¯s really God.¡± Fang Yuan laughed out loud. ¡°No, I am just a will symbol. I am not a true God. You just need to understand me as the rules of this world.¡± ¡°So what?¡± Fang Yuan said, ¡°I¡¯m already on the verge of death. I can¡¯t defeat Lutania. I can¡¯t change all of this!¡± At the end of his sentence, Fang Yuan¡¯s emotions actually became agitated. ¡°Fang Yuan, do you still remember the answer you gave me when you awakened the mark?¡± ¡°Are you talking about the symbol in my hand?¡± Fang Yuan raised his hand. Although it was very heavy, he found that he seemed to be able to move. ¡°Yes, but you were still confused at that time, so I didn¡¯t give you the last power.¡± she said slowly. ¡°Do you have the answer in your heart now?¡± ¡°The answer?¡± ¡°Let me ask you one more time. Seeing Nine Tails and Lutania fighting each other, is that the power that you want?¡± ¡­ The first time when Fang Yuan saw Ah Li appeared in front of his eyes, Ah Li was only the size of a palm and was abandoned by others. Fang Yuan had watched it grow. He didn¡¯t want Ah Li to be hurt at all. As for Lutania, it was a peak platinum pet beast that he had saved from the black market in order to challenge the Grass Arcane Realm. Along the way, it had protected him like an elder and saved him from danger several times. If possible, he did not want anyone to be hurt. However, Lutania had eaten his father, even though he was not his father in real sense¡­ Perhaps that was why Lutania would protect him¡­ After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yuan said. ¡°I don¡¯t want to see any more conflicts between pet beasts and humans. If possible, I hope to save them.¡± Fang Yuan did not know why he had made such a choice. ¡°Very good. Now, pick up the scroll beside you. That is the power that can defeat Lutania, but please don¡¯t forget your promise.¡± The heavy feeling on his body disappeared. Fang Yuan saw that he was surrounded by green light. He stood up and reached out to touch the scroll. [ Ding! Life Scroll detected. Grade: Legendary ] [ Do you want to proceed with 100 times increase? ] [ Host can choose from the following increase methods. ] [ First, give up the 100 times increase and obtain the Legendary Life Scroll. ] [ Second, proceed with 100 times increase in quality and obtain the Ultimate Life Scroll. ] [ Third, proceed with 100 times increase in strength and obtain the Legendary Life Scroll with 100-fold augmentation strength of the source of life. ] [ Legendary Life Scroll ] : The user can specify one of his pet beasts to possess the power of life. [ Ultimate Life Scroll ] : The user can specify one of his pet beasts to become the source of life. Was there even a need to think about this¡­ The second option! The scroll emitted a brilliant light, completely tearing apart the dark void. The guardians, who were already in despair, saw a white light rise from Fang Yuan¡¯s body. Ah Li had also entered its deathbed state, but after Fang Yuan handed the Ultimate Life Scroll to Ah Li, it actually felt a different kind of power continuously surging out. Chapter 193 - Silent Ending Nine Tails had once again completed its evolution. However, it no longer evolved in the direction of other elements. Instead, it had turned into a pure white fox, and its tail had also turned into a single tail. Lutania, who had been ecstatic a moment ago, felt threatened at this moment. When it saw Ah Li that had turned into a single tail, it actually felt a sense of fear in its heart. It immediately used its Death Strike skill to attack Ah Li and Fang Yuan. This time, Ah Li was not afraid of its attack. When the tentacle was about to approach Ah Li, it would produce an energy ripple that repelled the tentacle. Moreover, Ah Li did not seem to have exhausted its physical strength at all. It just looked at Lutania quietly. Lutania opened its mouth. It wanted to use the Destructive Light Beam. It did not believe that its strength could not even break Ah Li¡¯s defense! ¡°Lu¡­ Nero¡­¡± Before Lutania attacked, Fang Yuan called out to it. Lutania was now a beast. It had cut off its spiritual connection with Fang Yuan. However, when Fang Yuan called out to it, it subconsciously responded, but in a language that it could not understand. ¡°Nero, I don¡¯t know why you attacked me and Ah Li.¡± Fang Yuan jumped onto Ah Li. At this moment, the light in Lutania¡¯s mouth had reached its limit and the complete Destructive Light Beam was about to form. ¡°I must beat you up and then listen to your explanation!¡± There was no confusion in Fang Yuan¡¯s eyes at this time. ¡°Ah Li, use your Life Shield.¡± ¡°He wants to take the damage of Destructive Light Beam head-on?¡± Elder Tu looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief. The power of the Destructive Light Beam had just hit the sky, and it had already caused a huge earthquake. Could Fang Yuan and Ah Li take this move? ¡°They have no choice. If they dodge it, who knows where the energy will go,¡± Shui Wen said. ¡°Then we can only cheer for Fang Yuan?¡± The Fire Monk was a little annoyed that he was not strong enough to help Fang Yuan in the slightest. ¡°No¡­ maybe we can do something.¡± Grass Fairy¡¯s tone was still cold and calm, but she seemed to have thought of something. ¡°Mm.¡± The six guardians of the arcane realm nodded and stood at the six corners of the arena once again. Destroy! An unusually thick beam of destructive light shot out from Lutania¡¯s mouth and struck Ah Li¡¯s Life Shield¡­ The power was a little beyond imagination. Fang Yuan and Ah Li were being forced back step by step. This was not a simple energy attack, but a collision of laws. Therefore, the already unstable space in the demon world became even more unstable. Many strange scenes appeared around them, such as waterfalls, deserts, and craters. They all flashed by in a flash. If it was just the earth shaking just now, it was the entire space shaking now. The humans outside the cave of the demon world felt even more obvious. They were no longer just lying on the ground, but were constantly floating, falling, floating, and falling. It was as if the world was a Rubik¡¯s cube that was constantly rotating, changing the direction of gravity. All of these lasted for a minute. Lutania¡¯s energy was finally exhausted, and Ah Li withstood this attack! ¡°You¡¯re finished, Nero.¡± Fang Yuan recalled a movie he liked back then. This was the line that announced his victory! Lutania¡¯s move was clearly using all of its strength, but Ah Li did not. It rushed to the front of Lutania and scratched it with its claws, attacking it physically. This seemed to make Lutania laugh. It did not even use its tentacles to block it, but seemed to enjoy it. After scratching for nearly a hundred times, there was not even a scratch on Lutania¡¯s face. Ah Li jumped back instead. ¡°Do you really think that¡¯s it¡¯s over?¡± Fang Yuan revealed a confident smile. Lutania had seen Fang Yuan¡¯s expression countless times. This was the expression when Fang Yuan found a sure-win method. It looked at Fang Yuan in shock, and then felt the power of death stripping away from its body. It did not know why, but it felt a wave of nausea and vomited a creature. That creature was the fallen angel that it had swallowed! ¡°Xiao Lie!¡± Fang Yuan summoned the Gale Hound. It immediately understood and rushed forward with the fallen angel in its mouth, leaving the range of Lutania¡¯s attack. But this was not the end. Lutania vomited all kinds of life, even the Alloyed Tyrannosaurus that it had swallowed. And as it moved, its body also changed:. It went from the size of a mountain to an ordinary small mountain, and then gradually became the size of a two-story building¡­ It had degenerated, and become how it looked like when Fang Yuan first saw it ¡ª The Vine Lizard. ¡°Fang Yuan!¡± The Vine Lizard glared at Fang Yuan. He could now use human language again. ¡°Nero, you have lost.¡± Fang Yuan looked at the Vine Lizard now. Let alone Ah Li, even any of his pet beasts could easily tear it apart. ¡°Hahahahaha!¡± The Vine Lizard laughed wildly. ¡°Although I lost, you didn¡¯t win either. Do you know why?¡± Fang Yuan looked at it with a cold smile. ¡°Do you think I lost?¡± ¡°Your father has been eaten by me. He has been completely digested by me. hahahaha.¡± The Vine Lizard was now like a stray dog, making its final struggle. It knew that it wouldn¡¯t be able to escape death, so it only wanted to get back at it. But soon after it stopped laughing. As it could feel the soul imprint in its body. Moreover, this soul imprint didn¡¯t come from Fang Yuan, but from another man. ¡°Fang Yuan, well done.¡± A man¡¯s voice came from behind the Vine Lizard. That was his trainer. Fang Shang. ¡°Dad, long time no see.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. The Vine Lizard seemed to have lost the meaning of life and collapsed on the ground. ¡°Kill me,¡± it said to Fang Yuan, ¡°But before I die, I want to know one thing, how did you do it?¡± ¡°Let me answer you, Nero.¡± Fang Shang squatted down beside it and gently stroked its head. The moment the Vine Lizard came into contact with Fang Shang, it understood everything¡­ ¡°So you¡­¡± As a cold-blooded pet beast, it usually did not have feelings, but the Vine Lizard actually shed tears. Fang Shang was not a real creature, but an energy body. He came to say goodbye to himself. ¡°Nero, our era is over. Come to the New World with me.¡± He reached out his hand to Nero, waiting for his answer. ¡°You humans are weak, but you are better at scheming.¡± Nero¡¯s tone returned to the arrogant attitude when he first met Fang Yuan. ¡°But how can you live without me? Come on, I will go with you.¡± ¡°Thank you, Nero.¡± ¡°This time, you have to hide behind me¡­¡± Nero said, ¡°Don¡¯t get hit by that metal thing again. You¡¯re not as strong as me.¡± ¡°Of course.¡± Fang Shang smiled, then he turned around and gave Fang Yuan a thumbs up. ¡°Son, I¡¯ll be proud of you.¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes. The farewell between men didn¡¯t shed a tear. Chapter 194 (END) - Never Ending (The End) Fang Yuan¡¯s pet beasts were all at the scene. Ah Li¡¯s body emitted the aura of the King. If Ah Li and Fang Yuan gave orders at the same time, they could not be sure whether they would listen to Fang Yuan or Ah Li. Fortunately, Ah Li did not have any hostility toward Fang Yuan. Instead, it sat quietly next to Fang Yuan. Seeing Ah Li¡¯s behavior, the other pet beasts did the same. They surrounded the Vine Lizard. However, the Vine Lizard was already dead. It was only an empty shell now. Ah Li had also recovered from the state of Source of Life to the state of Nine Tails. As for that power, it should not have belonged to this world in the first place. Not long after Fallen Angel was spat out, it woke up from its coma. It had witnessed everything, but it did not cause any trouble. Instead, it just sat on the side. As for Alloy Tyrannosaurus, it was originally in a very angry state. However, just as it was about to roar, it saw the angel of destruction and immediately fell to the ground like a puppy. It wagged its tail continuously, looking extremely comical. The guardians of the arcane realm had originally wanted to seal the arena again and exchange their lives with Lutania. But unexpectedly, Fang Yuan actually defeated the Legendary King of World Destruction. Lutania, no, the Vine Lizard was lying there peacefully, as if it was asleep. ¡°Fang Yuan, are you going to let it enter a new cycle?¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion had unknowingly arrived at the scene. When the other guardians saw the Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, they immediately knelt down as if they had seen a senior. ¡°No.¡± Fang Yuan silently helped it close its eyes. ¡°If it enters a cycle, perhaps everything will start anew. Moreover, I think it will be happy in another world.¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion nodded his head in relief. He was worried that Fang Yuan would be merciful, and he could not stop Fang Yuan. There was no one who could stop Fang Yuan now. ¡°There¡¯s one more thing.¡± He looked at Ah Li and Fallen Angel and asked, ¡°Have you decided who will be the King now?¡± Fallen Angel glanced to the side and said, ¡°I¡¯ve lost anyway. Don¡¯t look at me.¡± Ah Li rubbed his head against Fang Yuan, meaning it did not want to leave him. It had no interest in becoming the King. Fang Yuan laughed and said, ¡°It seems that this world doesn¡¯t need a king anymore.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Fallen Angel stood up and said to Fang Yuan, ¡°I have a request.¡± Fang Yuan nodded and placed a hand on Fallen Angel¡¯s head, which was was half-kneeling. This was clearly the intention of signing a soul contract. Then, it entered Fang Yuan¡¯s pet space and said something before it left. ¡°If it¡¯s not necessary, don¡¯t look for me.¡± ¡°Only when I dare to do so.¡± Fang Yuan smiled. ¡°Who knows.¡± It placed its hand behind its head and turned its back to everyone. Before it disappeared, it turned back to look at Fang Yuan and said in a voice that no one else could hear, ¡°Thank you.¡± Ah Li became the only Legendary pet beast in this world, and it became the King of this world. As long as it was a pet beast, it had to accept its orders unconditionally. However, Ah Li chose not to interfere with any pet beasts. It had followed Fang Yuan since it was young, and it planned to continue following Fang Yuan in the future. This demon world also became an empty hole with the departure of the demon race. ¡°Very good.¡± The Elder of Heavenly Secret Pavilion clapped his hands and said, ¡°Fang Yuan, you are really an amazing trainer. However, I have something to tell you. As the mission of Heavenly Secret Pavilion has been completed, this space is going to disappear. Hurry up and leave with your pet beasts.¡± At this moment, Fang Yuan noticed that the fluctuation of the space was becoming more and more obvious. It was about to collapse. ¡°What about you?¡± Fang Yuan sat on Ah Li¡¯s body. In a few seconds, he would be able to leave this space. ¡°I originally didn¡¯t exist in this world.¡± The figure of the old man from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion began to turn into nothingness. He actually transformed into different forms. One moment, he was Old Man Tu, another moment, he was Grass Fairy, and another moment, he was Fire Monk¡­ ¡°The guardians of the arcane realm are just my clones. When this space doesn¡¯t need to exist, our mission will be completed.¡± In the end, his form actually turned into the goddess that Fang Yuan had seen when his imprint was awakened. ¡°Have you found the power you want?¡± Fang Yuan closed his eyes and summoned the other pet beasts back to the pet space. He and Ah Li entered the Flowing Light state¡­ There was no need to answer anymore. The goddess and the demon world disappeared together. At the entrance of the demon world, Su Han and the others saw that the sky of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was cracking like a piece of debris. They closed their eyes in despair. They would probably have to die here today. However, their despair only lasted for an instant. This was because the Star Metal Gryphon had carried them and their pet beasts on its back, and rushed towards the Grass Arcane Realm at an extremely fast speed. Before they could react, they had already passed through the cave and arrived at the Grass Arcane Realm¡­ This was a peaceful grassland. On the grassland, the students who had escaped from Heavenly Secret Pavilion were waiting for them. Fang Yuan turned around and looked at the cave. He could no longer see the light there. This cave had already become an ordinary cave. Heavenly Secret Pavilion would no longer exist. One last thing¡­ Fang Yuan raised his hand. The mark left his hand and flew into the air¡­ With a burst of dazzling light, the trainers who had lost their lives in the battle were resurrected. The only price was that Fang Yuan would never be able to use the trainer skills again. Ouyang Xinglan sat on the grass and looked at his hand, full of doubt. He immediately walked over and pulled Sima Kaile¡¯s face. Sima Kaile was in so much pain that he cried out. ¡°So it hurts even when you die.¡± Ouyang Xinglan looked at Sima Kaile and said. ¡°D*mn you, I didn¡¯t expect to be with a jinx like you even after you die!¡± Sima Kaile brushed off Ouyang Xinglan¡¯s hand. He had been behaving in this manner for hundreds of years. How could he not be angry. ¡°We¡¯re not dead.¡± Linghu Yiran looked at Fang Yuan in the sky. He immediately understood everything. Huang Ying got up from the ground and rubbed his eyes. After seeing the man in front of him clearly, his eyes became moist. ¡°Mr. Xiahou¡­¡± Xiahou, who had already turned into a demon, had now returned to his human form. He looked at his hands in confusion, but soon, he felt that he had been pushed down by someone. Fang Yuan smiled in satisfaction when he saw that everything was settled. Then, he and Ah Li disappeared in the Grass Arcane Realm like a ray of light. ¡°Thank you, Fang Yuan.¡± In the future, there would no longer be Heavenly Secret Pavilion in this world, and there would no longer be incidents of demonized pet beasts attacking humans. After leaving the arcane realm, the students of Heavenly Secret Pavilion each joined different academies. However, they also formed a new organization to self-maintain the balance between humans and pet beasts. One year later. ¡°Hahaha, what a cute little fox.¡± Du Lei grabbed a red fox and stuffed it into the cage. He was still doing the smuggling work, but¡­ ¡°To prevent the world from being destroyed¡­¡± ¡°To protect world peace¡­¡± ¡°To pursue love and truth against evil¡­¡± ¡°Su Han¡­¡± ¡°Xu Fei¡­¡± ¡°On behalf of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, we are going to arrest you, the criminal!¡± ¡­ ¡°Huh?¡± Du Lei felt his scalp go numb when he heard this line. When he saw that it was two kids, he laughed even more proudly. ¡°Are you two scoundrels tired of living?¡± Xu Fei said fiercely to Su Han, ¡°It¡¯s all because you¡¯re too weak when you read the lines. See, you¡¯re being despised again.¡± Su Han said helplessly, ¡°This line is too awkward¡­ I¡­¡± ¡°Alright, now is not the time to discuss this.¡± A female voice interrupted their argument. ¡°Let¡¯s bring all these poachers to justice! In the name of the Boss!¡± ¡°Oh!¡±
