Yuheng Academy, in the academy head’s office.
...After hearing Chen Jinrong’s arrangements, Huang Tingwei could not help but reveal a puzzled expression. “Commander, I don’t understand. Although Wang Xiao has a lot of potential, his talent is only that of a [beast tamer lord] after all. Is it worth your attention?”
Chen Jinrong blinked with a smile. “Do you really think he’s just a simple [beast tamer lord]?”
The confusion on Huang Tingwei’s face deepened. “This is the result given by the Awakening Tower. How can it be wrong?”
“Of course, the Awakening Tower won’t make a mistake, but it’s not necessarily the case for humans.”
Chen Jinrong smiled mysteriously. Then, he changed the topic and asked seriously, “How is it? Are you willing to accept this mission?”
“I don’t mind, but…
Huang Tingwei revealed a difficult expression. After hesitating for a moment, he still said, “Wang Xiao’s current strength is ranked top among the geniuses of the nine academies. I’m afraid it won’t be easy for him to suffer repeated setbacks in this academy’s ranking assessment.”
“Moreover, the ranking assessment of the academy is different from the lord competition. This time, it’s a global live broadcast that covers the entire Blue Planet. To be defeated consecutively on such an important occasion, even if it’s suppressive education, it’s still a little too much, right?”
“Is it too much?”
Chen Jinrong chuckled and revealed a playful expression. “Didn’t you do the same thing?”
Huang Tingwei’s expression froze. “Commander, why don’t I understand what you’re saying?”
“Stop pretending! You poached Tian Gang from the Nine Heavens Academy, right?”
Chen Jinrong smiled and said with a knowing expression, “Don’t tell me you don’t know the grudge between his brother and Wang Xiao!”
Huang Tingwei was instantly speechless. After a few seconds, he nodded helplessly. “I’ll try my best.”
“Don’t just try. Make sure of it.”
Chen Jinrong said in a low voice, his expression unprecedentedly serious.
Seeing this, Huang Tingwei’s expression also became serious. “Commander, don’t worry. I promise to complete the mission!”
Secret realm, [Scorching Purgatory].
Wang Xiao rode the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon and circled in the air. On the ground, Zhou Xiruo brought 10,000 Metal Devouring Ants and waited 500 meters away from the Blazing Golden Crow.
Seeing that Zhou Xiruo was already prepared, Wang Xiao patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and the man and dragon circled towards the sand dune.
After the [Blazing Golden Crow]’s torment just now, the sand dune that was originally more than ten meters tall was now only seven to eight meters tall.
Wang Xiao hugged the neck of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] with one hand and took a deep breath before raising the [Black Gold Ore]. “[Blazing Golden Crow]! Look at this!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xiao felt another sharp gaze land on him. Before he could find the source of the gaze, the white desert in front of him exploded!
“Let’s go!”
Wang Xiao shouted and the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] immediately flapped its wings and flew into the sky like a black bolt of lightning!
Almost at the same time, a huge red bird rushed out of the sand dune. Its terrifying wingspan covered the sky. With a light flap of its wings, it set off a huge sandstorm within a thousand meters!
The bodies of the 10,000 [Metal Devouring Ants] were instantly swallowed. Fortunately, Zhou Xiruo was already prepared. After bending down to avoid the initial violent wind, she led the group of [Metal Devouring Ants] and rushed straight to the sand dune!
At the same time, on the horizon.
The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] pushed its speed to the limit. The strong wind blew until Wang Xiao could not even raise his head. He could only hug the neck of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] tightly, but his other hand still
insisted on raising the [Black Gold Ore] high.
After adapting to this feeling a moment later, Wang Xiao opened his eyes and looked behind him.
A red bird with a wingspan of nearly a thousand meters chased closely behind. Even the ten “suns” in the sky seemed to be swept up by the violent wind it stirred up and scattered in the air without any order!
“What the hell is that?”
Wang Xiao looked at the ten scurrying suns and was secretly puzzled. Previously, he thought that they were a part of the Blazing Golden Crow, but now that the Blazing Golden Crow had already revealed its true form, it did not seem to have anything to do with the ten suns.
As he thought, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] flashed nearly ten thousand meters away. Wang Xiao suddenly felt vigilant. This meant that they were about to reach the end of the secret realm!
No one knew what was at the end of the secret realm. There was once a lord who tried to pass through that “barrier”. After that, he disappeared as if he had evaporated into thin air. His descendants did not even know if he had failed or succeeded.
Although Wang Xiao had the spirit of adventure, he was not stupid. He hurriedly called for the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] to change directions and prepared to circle around the edge of this secret realm to buy as much time as possible for Zhou Xiruo.
However, when the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon turned around, Wang Xiao suddenly discovered an awkward situation—the size of the Blazing Golden Crow was too big.
The Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon was nearly ten meters long, but compared to the Blazing Golden Crow, it was like the difference between a fly and a goshawk.
According to the speed of the [Blazing Golden Crow] and the current distance between the two sides, they would be caught by the [Blazing Golden Crow] before the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] turned around and headed to a safe area!
In a flash, Wang Xiao quickly thought and ordered, “Go up!”
The Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon instantly understood Wang Xiao’s meaning. It spread its wings and immediately turned on the spot, rushing above the Blazing Golden Crow with its back and abdomen!
Now, there were dead ends on both sides. The top of the Blazing Golden Crow seemed to be dangerous, but the larger the mutated beast was, the slower its movements were. In fact, it became Wang Xiao’s only way out!
The truth was indeed as Wang Xiao had expected. The [Blazing Golden Crow] discovered that they had suddenly changed directions. Although it tried its best to raise its head and stop them, its body could not keep up with this sudden change.
In the end, the two sides brushed past each other less than two meters away. At this moment, Wang Xiao suddenly heard a notification.
“[Blazing Golden Crow requests to sign a contract with you]”
[Your soldier pit is already full. You can’t sign a new contract beast. You have automatically rejected it.]
Wang Xiao’s expression instantly became strange. It was not because the territory had rejected the contract request, but because the [Blazing Golden Crow] had actually taken the initiative to sign a contract!
It had to be known that mutated beasts would only take the initiative to sign a contract when they recognized a certain lord very much. However, Wang Xiao had clearly not done anything. He had only flown around on the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. How did he obtain the recognition of the [Blazing Golden Crow]?
In a flash, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] had already distanced itself from the [Blazing Golden Crow]. At the same time, a notification sounded in Wang Xiao’s ear again.
“[Blazing Golden Crow requests to sign a contract with you]”
