After Cheating, I Became the Strongest Beast Master

 Chapter 97 Xingchen Middle School (additional update)

After a period of waiting, two white lights flashed outside the inheritance tower one after another, and two students walked out, with a bit of solemnity and unwillingness on their faces.

“The fourth level is too difficult.” A girl said in a serious tone.

The stocky boy next to him also had a very desperate look on his face. His ability to control beasts had reached level 29. He thought he was absolutely rare among his peers, but even so, he still failed to pass the fourth level.

He shook his head and said in a firm tone: "It's impossible for anyone to pass the fourth level. That giant thunder turtle is too shameless. It's disgusting in the water environment."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamation from around him.

He turned around and saw that the lights on the fifth floor of the inheritance tower turned on.

Although it only lit up for a moment and then went out quickly, it still shocked everyone.

 A white light flashed, and a thin boy appeared outside the inheritance tower.

The young man has a tall and straight body, a face with sharp edges and corners, and a skin so white that it is almost transparent, showing an imperceptible indifference.

“I suspect that the level 40 of the beast-controller in the fifth level is level 40. My beast-controller can’t beat it.” The boy said in an indifferent voice.

A short but strong-looking boy next to him asked curiously: "Brother, how did you pass the fourth level?"

 He is one of the two people trapped in the fourth level. He cannot believe that there are still people who can pass such a difficult level.

 “Those who passed after defeating.” The iceberg-faced boy gave an answer.

 The people around him were immediately speechless, and the answer was as if it had not been said at all.

 But they also understand that there is really no other way to pass the level other than defeating the gatekeepers and controlling the beasts.

 After the challenge, the students all received generous rewards, some of which were rare exotic items, and some of which were high-level skill orbs.

 But for them, what is more important is that they have the opportunity to "travel" in an honest way.

 The teachers wanted to go back, but the students were unwilling.

One student said: "Teacher, didn't you say we just need to communicate? How about we communicate with the students here? There are so many people here now, and I haven't played against students from other provinces yet."

 Other students also echoed.

 The teachers are speechless. I have never seen you so active.

However, after thinking for a while, the teachers exchanged opinions and decided to stay a little longer.

 After all, these are only first-year students in high school, so they are not in a hurry.

 It just so happens that they can also "travel at public expense", so why not do it.

 Under the **** of the army, a group of teachers and students left the secret realm of Nightmare Swamp.

Jincheng’s food is well-known throughout the country. In the next few days, they set aside half a day each day for exchange activities, and the remaining time was spent tasting various gourmet restaurants in Jincheng.

 The teachers naturally would not let the students play so easily, and they also took the opportunity to arrange some communication activities.

 The local education department and major schools also expressed support for this, so a tacit understanding was reached.

“Chen Xing, there will be a student from another school coming to communicate in the afternoon and there will be a friendly match.” Kuang Shiyi walked to Chen Xing and said, “Get ready.”

 “Which school are you from?” Chen Xing was curious.

They actually asked him to come out to pick up the guests.

 There are obviously seniors in the school team who are better at playing.

“It’s not from this province, it’s a school from other provinces.” Kuang Shiyi said.

 From other provinces?

Chen Xing thought about it and asked: "Are they students from other provinces who participated in the inheritance tower?"

 Seeing that Chen Xing guessed it so quickly, Kuang Shiyi nodded, "Well, they are basically the top high schools across the country. Normally, they will be your competitors in the next two years."

At this point, Kuang Shiyi's expression was a little subtle, because the principal had already told him that Chen Xing would take the college entrance examination in advance this year.

 As the coach of the school team, he is the one who arranges training formations for the members, so he must know such important news.

“Abnormally speaking, if you want to participate in the College Cup and the College Entrance Examination, your opponents this year will not be them, but enhanced opponents who have trained two years more than them.”

“Basically, several ‘monsters’ appear in the College Cup every year.”

 Speaking of this, Kuang Shiyi felt a little emotional, "I originally expected you to compete with these 'monsters' in the College Cup in the future."

 Chen Xing asked, "Monsters? How many monsters are there?"

 “It’s almost the same as you.” Kuang Shiyi said. "For example, you made it to the fourth level this time, but did you know that three of these students from other places made it to the fourth level, and that's not all of them. Some students didn't participate because they weren't interested."

“Now you know how scary these monsters are.”

Kuang Shiyi sighed, "With top-notch qualifications for controlling beasts, a powerful innate race, and a massive supply of resources. On the battlefield of a foreign land, there is an existence that can compete with the geniuses of the big forces in the foreign land."

 Chen Xing probably understands.

“You need to go to Kyushu University in advance because you can get more resources there, but for people at certain levels, they don’t need this.”

“The resources at Kyushu University can only be regarded as dispensable to them.

 So they are not in a hurry to get promoted early, they just need to grow up step by step and enjoy life slowly.

 Because when the resources reach a certain level, unless there are truly rare and unreplicable top opportunities, normal resources will make no difference to certain levels. "

"Too much to say." Kuang Shiyi shut up. He just thought of some of his previous experiences in the army and was quite touched.

“The students who are going to challenge you this afternoon are the students of Xingchen Middle School.”

 Xingchen Middle School? Chen Xing had heard about it a long time ago.

　　It was the championship team of the College Cup the year before last.

If high schools also have rankings, Xingchen Middle School is definitely among the top five high schools in the country.

The reason why we are ranked in the top five is because the top five high schools are almost the same in terms of strength.

 The championship team of the College Cup every year basically emerges from these five high schools most of the time.

 Occasionally a dark horse from another school appears.

“This student from Xingchen Middle School, I heard that when he challenged the Heritage Tower, he stopped at the fourth level just like you.”

Chen Xing nodded to express his understanding, "That level is indeed no small matter."

He knows very well how difficult it is to deal with the 35th level Thunder Turtle. Even now, he is not completely sure that he can defeat it. Of course, his Taotie is growing rapidly, and maybe in a month or two, the situation will be different.

While he was deep in thought, Kuang Shiyi's words broke the calm again: "But this time, there is another person who successfully passed the fourth level."

 Chen Xing raised his head suddenly, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Has anyone passed the fourth level?"

"Yes, he is a student from Mingde Middle School." Kuang Shiyi said slowly.

 Chen Xing's heart sank. Mingde Middle School is the top private high school in Chuzhou. It is as famous as Xingchen Middle School and is the top institution in the country.

"interesting."

In the afternoon, Chen Xing met the student from Xingchen Middle School who wanted to challenge him. In addition to him, there were several students from other schools who came to watch the match.

 The student who challenged himself looked a bit older, short and stocky, with thick eyebrows.

“Hello, my name is Yue Qianyuan.”

 The short, stocky boy stretched out his right hand.

 Chen Xing also stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Yue Qianyuan.

He didn't feel much arrogance from Yue Qianyuan. Instead, he felt that this person was quite gentle.

"My teacher asked me to come." Yue Qianyuan pointed to the teacher behind him, "Let's go and learn from each other first."

"After the game, let's find a place to have a meal later? The skewers here are quite delicious, but a bit spicy. How about ordering a mandarin duck?" Yue Qianyuan invited Chen Xing.

 “Okay.” Chen Xing nodded in agreement.

Arriving at the training ground, Chen Xing looked at Yue Qianyuan opposite him. To be honest, he was a little curious about the level of such a talented beast master.

Yue Qianyuan on the opposite side stretched out his right hand, and the light of the summoning array lit up.

 A giant blue octopus appears on the field.

This octopus has tentacles three to four meters long, with blue rings on its body and a small black dot in the center of the ring. From a distance, it looks like densely packed eyes.

  【Race】Blue Devil Octopus

 【Attribute】Water, poison

  【Energy Level】29

  【Energy level upper limit】39

【Skill】

 Elementary skills: Rubber telescoping (mastered), poisonous water arrows (mastered), human shield ejection (mastered)

 Intermediate skill: Venom Impact (Mastery)

Talent Skill: Mimicry (Mastery)

“Classmate Chen, be careful. My beast is the Blue Devil Octopus, which has water and poison attributes.” Yue Qianyuan kindly reminded him.

He had watched Chen Xing's battle video before coming here, and he had to admit that if he put himself in his shoes, he might not be able to control the beast better than Taotie in the same situation.

 But the battle between the beasts is not based on the historical results. The attributes, types, tactics and on-the-spot performance of the beasts are all important.

Just like this time, the Saltwater Crocodile on the opposite side is equivalent to losing a core skill. His beast control is also a water beast control. The water field created by the flood also has benefits for his beast control.

 As time goes by, his advantage in controlling beasts becomes more obvious.

“I understand, it’s quite troublesome for teachers to clean the place on weekends, so I don’t need to flood.”

Chen Xing said with a smile.

Yue Qianyuan was stunned, a little unsure of Chen Xing's usage.

Then he saw the saltwater crocodile plunge into the water next to it, and then swam straight towards his beast along the channel of the water.

Yue Qianyuan thought for a moment and did not let himself control the beast into the water.

 Because your own beast is on the shore, the other party will inevitably go ashore if they want to launch an attack.

 So he ordered the release of poisonous water arrows.

The Blue Devil Octopus waved its tentacles, and three black water arrows condensed in front of it. At a glance, it was clear that the water was unclean and full of poison.

 Three water arrows were shot out in succession.

 Hit the saltwater crocodile in the water accurately.

 Hit all the attacks, the speed of the saltwater crocodile is not affected at all.

Soon Taotie detoured to the water surface closest to the Blue Demon Octopus, and the next second it suddenly exploded from the water with a vicious wave.

This leap actually bounced directly from the water, spanning a distance of six to seven meters, and after landing, his strong body ran quickly.

 A flick of the tail.

Whirlwinds rolled up in the surrounding air, and strands of water were pulled by invisible forces and flew up from the water, forming a large whirlpool with a diameter of twenty meters nearby.

The wisps of water flow rotated at high speed, and the water elements in the air and the water flow in the water were continuously pulled into the air, forming a large whirlpool around the two beasts.

The Blue Demon Octopus received the order to retreat, but the strong suction of the maelstrom caused its speed to drop sharply, and its tentacles could not help but fly in the direction of the suction.

Then Taotie rushed forward, bit its head, and threw it hard towards the ground.

boom! !

There was no need for a death roll, just this flick made the Blue Demon Octopus collapse on the ground like a piece of soft mud.

 The thick phalanges stepped on it, and Taotie let out a low roar.

Yue Qianyuan stood there blankly.

 Who am I, why am I here, is the battle over?

Seeing his student's appearance, the teacher from Xingchen Middle School hurriedly came over to comfort him, lest the student's "Tao Xin collapse" would occur.

 Chen Xing was also a little embarrassed. He actually didn't expect the battle to end so soon.

 Even to show respect, he didn't even let Taotie use the death roll.

This seems to be different from what I imagined. With just a flick and a step, the beast on the other side stopped?

Of course, it may also be related to Taotie's physical strength becoming more and more terrifying. Now Taotie has exceeded the limits of normal development.

Looking at Yue Qianyuan who was wiping his eyes across from him, Chen Xing felt a little guilty in his heart. It seemed that there was really no point in fighting with peers, so he should be gentler in the future.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing shouted: "Classmate Yue, are you going to eat hot pot later?"

Yue Qianyuan sniffed, stared at Chen Xing intently, and said fiercely: "Eat!"

10,000 words delivered today! Surprise or not. Mainly because I couldn’t fall asleep in bed, so I just got up and continued writing.
