Chapter 20
The Entrance Examination Begins, The Change in Flying Dragon Village!
The next day, Mu Xuan quietly left Golden Flower City and entered the South Mountain Mystic Realm again. In the afternoon, he finally left the South Mountain Mystic Realm with his identity.
At this point, all of Mu Xuan’s goals for coming to the South Mountain Mystic Realm had been achieved.
The next day, Mu Xuan appeared in school quietly. In the end, Chen Kang said something that shocked him. Luo Si’s father had been captured.
Then, something even more strange happened. The imperial police actually didn’t come to him to understand the situation, making Mu Xuan, who had long prepared a script, rather disappointed. “Could it be that because I used the demon beast bloodline to deal with Luo Si, I have made the investigation go astray?”
Mu Xuan was naturally very happy about this. In the end, he was even more at ease as he increased the level of his two beasts.
However, what made it troublesome was that the cultivation resources of the Little Cat, or the Spatial Polecat, could be said to be terrifying. A Void Stone actually cost 300,000 yuan, more than ten times the price of the resource for the Ice Crystal Spirit!
Fortunately, during his trip to the South Mountain Mystic Realm, he had obtained a lot of resources. Among them, the most valuable were the Green Spirit Snake Eye and the Snake Gall. The two were sold for a total of 1.4 million yuan. In total, he had made 2 million yuan.
However, this 2 million yuan still wasn’t enough to buy a Spatial Polecat’s advancement resource!
According to a certain beast tamer store owner, the advancement resources of spatial beasts involved spatial power. They were all extremely rare items. They were priceless, so how could the prices not be high?!
There were still two days until the field combat assessment of the nine schools. The Ice Crystal Spirit had reached commander level 4, and the Spatial Polecat had reached elite level 9. With the two rare beasts in hand, Mu Xuan didn’t believe that anyone was a match for him.
In the classroom of Year Three Class 1, Lin Susu made the final instructions. “The joint examination of the nine schools is a test of your strength, so you all must act according to your abilities. Don’t be reckless. It’s best if you team up…”
“The wild is different from the city. Danger is everywhere. You have to be careful…”
“As for the rules of the joint examination, I’ve already printed them out for you. Take a look…”
In the end, under Lin Susu’s command, all the students whose beasts had reached the elite level stepped onto the team heading to the north mountain.
The reason why they needed to be at the elite level was naturally because beasts below the elite level might not be able to withstand a single exchange with demon beasts in the wild, so there was naturally no need for them to partake in the assessment.
Although the elite level was very low, in fact, at least half of the beasts in Mu Xuan’s class had not reached the elite level.
This was still the key class. It was already not bad if three to five people from the ordinary class participated.
In the Beast Taming Era, although everyone had the possibility of contracting a beast, in fact, only a small number of people relied on beasts to succeed. Most people naturally advanced to the elite level as time passed.
Mu Xuan estimated that in this joint examination of the nine schools, the total number of people in the nine middle schools was about 1,200. The scale could be said to be huge. Fortunately, the entire Golden Flower City attached great importance to this and invested a lot of manpower and resources.
Along the way, the students walked in twos and threes and chatted. It looked like they were going on a school trip. It was very lively, and they didn’t realize the danger at all.
“Brother Xuan, let’s team up?”
“Mu Xuan, can I join your team?”
“Mu Xuan, Teacher Lin said we can team up…”
Looking at the boys and girls surrounding him, Mu Xuan smiled faintly and said, “My goal is those commander-level demon beasts. If you also have commander-level beasts, you can team up with me.”
As soon as these words were said, everyone rolled their eyes. commander level, you’re the only one in Ninth High School, alright?!
Mu Xuan chuckled and spread his hands. “I’m doing this for your own good. It’s even more dangerous for you to follow me.”
Chen Kang said helplessly, “Looks like there’s no chance for me to cozy up to someone powerful…”
Through the 20,000 yuan Mu Xuan lent him, Chen Kang’s Strange Strength Frog successfully advanced to the elite level. Now, it was already at the elite level 3, and its battle power was not weak.
Mu Xuan smiled. “With me around, how can you have a chance to perform?”
Chen Kang was not disappointed. He had long known that Mu Xuan would not team up with him. After all, the difference in realm between the two was too big.
Outside the north mountain, in an empty space, thousands of students from the nine high schools gathered. Then… the leader of the Beast Taming Bureau and the principal of the nine high schools spoke one after another…
After the leaders finished speaking, Mu Xuan was almost asleep. It had to be said that the leaders’ voices were very soothing, making the speech feel like a lullaby.
After more than an hour, the joint examination of the nine schools finally officially began under the command of the leader of the Beast Taming Bureau.
Everyone stepped into the forest in groups of two or three. Of course, there were also people working alone, such as the commander-level students of the nine high schools, who chose to act alone.
Mu Xuan’s luck was a little bad today. After walking for several kilometers, he actually didn’t encounter a single demon beast.
According to the rules of the nine schools’ joint exam, the students needed to hunt demon beasts and harvest their left ears as markers. The points for demon beasts of each level were different. In the end, the person with the most total points would be ranked first.
It was worth mentioning that the joint examination prohibited students from attacking each other. Once discovered by the inspectors riding the flying beasts, not only would they be disqualified, but their school points would also be deducted. It was quite strict.
For more than half an hour, Mu Xuan’s points were still zero.
Fortunately, not long after, Mu Xuan finally discovered an elite level 9 Blackthorn Boar. Without waiting for Mu Xuan’s command, the Ice Crystal Spirit, who was already impatient, exploded with an ice crystal, and the elite level 9 Blackthorn Boar died on the spot.
Mu Xuan shook his head and cut off the Blackthorn Boar’s left ear before continuing forward. As for the other parts of the Blackthorn Boar’s body, Mu Xuan couldn’t be bothered to collect them…
Just as the attention of the entire Golden Flower City was focused on the Nine Schools Alliance’s entrance, a group of ferocious black-clothed people arrived in the Flying Dragon Village, which was about ten kilometers west of Golden Flower City! ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
Flying Dragon Village was famous throughout the entire Golden Flower City for its flying dragon stone statue erected at the entrance of the village. The weathered flying dragon stone statue seemed to contain a lot of history.
However, today, the arrival of this group of black-clothed people disturbed the silence and peace of Flying Dragon Village.
“Who are you? You’re not welcome here…”
Before the villager from Flying Dragon Village could finish speaking, one of the men in black had already killed him. For a moment, Flying Dragon Village was in chaos.
The white-haired old man in the lead looked at Flying Dragon Village and said indifferently, “Who would have thought that there was actually a mystic realm sealed under this Great Dragon Village!
“Dark Dragon, it’s been two hundred years. It’s time to be born…
“Kill all the people of Flying Dragon Village and use their blood to break the seal!
“I want Golden Flower City to completely wither!
“Yes, Lord Priest!” The fanatical black-clothed people shouted excitedly. Then, they released their beasts and charged into this ordinary little village!
In just a moment, a miserable cry came from the Great Dragon Village.
The white-haired old man who had been made a priest said in a sympathetic tone, “Death is just another beginning. The Beast God’s Divine Kingdom will be open to you!”
Ten minutes later, Great Dragon Village was completely silent. Broken limbs could be seen everywhere. The bright red blood was collected bit by bit and poured onto the flying dragon statue that the Great Dragon Village was proud of…
