Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 36 A Provocation from the Illusionary Sea Academy! (4500-word long chapter, please recommend)

"boom!"

A loud bang startled Chen Fan, who was fast asleep: "What's going on? An earthquake?!"

I felt the whole building shake...

Chen Fan got out of bed, put on his clothes and rushed into the corridor.

Damn it...

If she weren't a beautiful woman, I would have torn her to pieces!

Emerald, who was "swimming" in the large bathtub, also jumped out and followed Chen Fan.

When Chen Fan walked into the corridor, he saw that the open space below was already crowded with people.

A boy with slicked-back hair stood on a strange monster with his arms crossed, arrogantly looking towards the girls' dormitory.

The beast was over seven meters tall, shaped like a lion, with a golden body and two golden dragon horns on its head, making it very majestic and imposing.

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly...

"Level 6?"

Chen Fan frowned.

He remembered that the three strongest students in this year's War God Academy—Chu Xuan, Ye Hao, and Fang Qingqing—were all level 5 in beast taming.

No wonder this guy is so arrogant and audacious, barging straight into the War God Academy.

Then the boy on the back of the dragon-blooded lion shouted, "Qingqing, are you awake? I'll buy you coffee!"

The group from the War God Academy were furious.

Howling like a ghost with your tamed beast so early in the morning, how can you not want to be beaten up?

Many teachers frowned, but since no one had been harmed, they didn't want to intervene.

At that moment, Fang Qingqing stood on the second-floor corridor near the girls' dormitory and said coldly, "Shen Daodao, don't you think what you're doing is pointless?"

Chen Fan's expression shifted slightly.

Last night, Li Sheng told him about this name.

Shen Daodao is a genius at Huanhai Academy.

Shen Daodao and her cousin Shen Hongxiu are the two strongest people in Huanhai Academy!

Only these two from Huanhai Academy can stand against Chu Xuan and Fang Qingqing!

Shen Daodao stood atop the Dragonblood Lion, beaming with pride, and said, "Qingqing, I heard you were defeated by Shen Hongxiu. Your Silver Moon Azure Feather Bird and goblin were both injured by her tamed beasts, is that true?"

"Do you want me to stand up for you?"

Fang Qingqing said expressionlessly, "No need."

"Besides, I didn't lose."

"Her tamed beast was also injured."

"We only managed a draw."

"Is that so?" Shen Daodao smiled wickedly. "But Shen Hongxiu's injuries from controlling beasts have already been healed."

"And your tamed beasts..."

"I heard that people from the Animal Breeders Association came to your house a couple of days ago, right?"

"I wonder if your goblin and Silvermoon Bluebird will still be able to participate in the arena battle in two weeks?"

Fang Qingqing remained expressionless: "Whether I can play or not is none of your concern."

Just then, a figure leaped into the air and landed downstairs.

It was Ye Hao, whom Chen Fan had met at the school gate!

Ye Hao tilted his head back, glanced at the Dragon Blood Lion, and then looked at Shen Daodao and said, "Shen Daodao, has your Dragon Blood Lion broken through?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding noise vanished instantly!

Many senior students at the War God Academy felt a chill run down their spines!

Before this, the current cohort of the War God Academy almost completely defeated the Illusionary Sea Academy and the Heavenly Saint Academy!

Regardless of how strong Ye Hao and Fang Qingqing are, Chu Xuan alone could wipe them out!

But judging from Ye Hao's words, Shen Daodao's beast taming has broken through?

Shen Daodao's Dragon Blood Lion is level 5. Does that mean it has broken through to level 6 now?

Many students began to examine the dragon-blooded lion closely.

"It is indeed a little different from before..."

"Oh no, level 6! That's already elite level!"

"Damn it, no wonder this guy dared to trespass into our War God Academy to provoke us. His Dragon Blood Lion has actually broken through to level 6!"

"What should we do? Chu Xuan, Ye Hao, and Fang Qingqing's beasts are all level 5!"

"Why is this happening? Chu Xuan's Beast Taming hasn't even broken through yet, so why did that bastard Shen Daodao's Beast Taming break through?"

The students upstairs and downstairs were discussing it animatedly.

The teachers' expressions were also extremely solemn.

Further away, on a tall building, an old man sighed: "Chu Xuan and the others are in trouble."

"It's really unexpected that Shen Daodao's Dragon Blood Lion will break through to level 6 before Chu Xuan and the others' beasts."

"The arena competition in two weeks will probably be a bit tough for our War God Academy."

A woman standing nearby frowned and said, "Principal, what exactly happened? Shen Daodao couldn't even beat Ye Hao before, how did he suddenly break through in beast taming?"

The principal of the War God Academy smiled slightly and said, "That's normal..."

"The breakthrough of beast taming depends on the talent of the beast tamer, the talent of the beast tamer, and also on the opportunity."

"No one can be sure when a beast tamer will break through."

"For example, Chu Xuan and his companions' beast taming might break through to the next level tomorrow after obtaining a certain herb from the secret realm, or they might not be able to break through even after three months."

"This is all normal."

"Shen Daodao's Dragon Blood Lion must have eaten something to be able to break through first."

The woman beside him looked grave: "What should we do now? No one can guarantee that Chu Xuan and the others' beast taming skills will break through within the next half month."

"If he can't break through, then Shen Daodao will probably sweep the entire field!"

"That's not necessarily true." The principal shook his head and said, "Whether it's Chu Xuan or Fang Qingqing, their talents are not limited to beast taming."

"Their fighting talent is actually superior to Shen Daodao's."

"Even if Shen Daodao has a level 6 beast taming ability, he might not be guaranteed to win."

The woman's expression darkened further: "But those are elite-level beast tamers! Even if Chu Xuan and his group win, they'll likely pay a heavy price!"

The principal did not speak.

Because he saw that Fang Qingqing had come out and was standing shoulder to shoulder with Ye Hao!

The two stood before the Dragonblood Lion, showing no fear, and their demeanor was quite confrontational!

"Xuan Chu! Come out!"

Ye Hao shouted.

Then Chu Xuan emerged from behind the Dragon Blood Lion: "I'm here."

"Damn!" Ye Hao and Shen Daodao were both startled at the same time.

Especially Shen Daodao, who had been focused on the front and had no idea that Chu Xuan was hiding behind!

If Chu Xuan were a little more cunning and launched a surprise attack...

Shen Daodao glared at Chu Xuan, her face turning ashen.

"Hey!" Ye Hao said, annoyed, "Why are you always appearing and disappearing like this?"

Chu Xuan said indifferently, "I didn't appear out of nowhere. I've been standing here the whole time, wearing a red cloak. You just couldn't see me."

"How the hell could I see that? You were hiding behind the Dragonblood Lion, and that thing was so big..." Ye Hao waved his hand irritably, "Alright, alright, stop talking about that... That bastard Shen Daodao has come knocking on our door, what are we supposed to do?"

Chu Xuan: "Attack."

"You're really decisive!" Ye Hao lowered his head, pulled Chu Xuan aside, and whispered, "That bastard's beast taming has broken through to level 6, while all our beast taming is only level 5... You need to understand, the difference between level 5 and level 6 isn't just one level!"

"Levels 1 to 5 are just normal, but levels 6 to 10 are elite!"

Chu Xuan stepped forward: "Whether we can win or not, we'll only know after we fight."

"Even if he's an elite-level fighter, I can cripple him."

As soon as he finished speaking, three summoning arrays appeared around him.

King of Heavy Beetles!

Desert wind sculptors!

Darkblood Stone Golem!

As soon as the three beasts appeared, they scattered and surrounded the Dragon Blood Lion!

The Dragonblood Lion roared, and its aura surged!

Flames also ignited in his eyes!

The students nearby all scattered in a flash.

"stop!"

Li Sheng, who had been observing from the shadows, stepped forward: "Chu Xuan, don't fight him! If you do, you'll fall into his trap!"

Shen Daodao smiled slightly and said, "Teacher Li, what do you mean by being tricked? I came to challenge you openly and honestly. What scheme could I possibly have?"

Li Sheng scoffed and said, "Little rascal, I used this trick when I was seven or eight years old. Don't try to teach me a lesson."

"..." Shen Daodao's expression changed slightly.

Li Sheng coldly said, "Breakthroughs in Beast Taming are hard to predict. No one can guarantee that your Beast Taming won't break through within the next half month."

"That Shen Daodao is obviously worried that your tamed beasts will break through within the next half month, so he came directly to our door."

"He is now challenging any one of you. If you accept the challenge, your tamed beasts will likely suffer severe damage!"

"Of the two from Tian Sheng Academy, one was seriously injured by Chu Xuan and is still hospitalized."

"If Chu Xuan and the other two get injured again, or if your beasts are severely damaged, the arena match in half a month will become an exhibition match for Shen Daodao and his Illusionary Sea Academy!"

Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged.

But Ye Hao and Fang Qingqing's expressions immediately darkened!

"Hahahahaha!"

Shen Daodao burst into laughter: "Teacher Li, you really know how to make up stories. I just wanted to defeat Chu Xuan and Ye Hao after the Dragon Blood Lion broke through. I really didn't think that much about it."

Li Sheng sneered and remained silent.

Shen Daodao frowned slightly and said, "What, are you really afraid of Chu Xuan?"

"How about the three of you come at me together?"

Ye Hao roared in fury, "What the hell did you say?!"

Fang Qingqing raised an eyebrow, her eyes flashing with anger.

But Chu Xuan was still observing the Dragon Blood Lion, pondering a countermeasure.

He knew all the skills of the level 5 Dragonblood Lion.

But he had no idea whether the Dragonblood Lion would awaken new skills after breaking through to level 6.

After all, even if two level 6 Dragonblood Lions stand together, their skills may not be exactly the same.

But the most fatal thing is...

Although it's only a one-level increase from level 5 to level 6, as Ye Hao said, the gap between elite and normal levels is simply too great.

The Dragonblood Lion's breakthrough from level 5 to level 6 is roughly equivalent to a normal-level Beast Tamer level increasing by 2 levels!

Although Chu Xuan had the will to fight, he also understood Li Sheng's words... If a real fight broke out, even with his three tamed beasts against Shen Daodao's single Dragon Blood Lion, it would be difficult for him to win.

Even if the tactics are used properly and the opponent's weaknesses are exploited, the final result can only be a Pyrrhic victory!

And the three beasts will definitely suffer severe damage!

But Shen Daodao has more than just one dragon-blooded lion!

Shen Daodao still has two more tamed beasts!

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Li Sheng spoke up again: "Shen Daodao, your beast taming damaged the ground in front of our War God Academy dormitory. You have to pay for that."

"Give me five thousand Alliance Coins first."

Shen Daodao: "..."

Li Sheng glared at him: "What? Are the Shen family going to renege on even this small amount of money?"

Shen Daodao rolled her eyes: "I'll make it up to you!"

"Hmm." Li Sheng nodded in satisfaction: "Once you've paid up, get lost. Want to fight? It's easy! Chu Xuan and his crew will give you a good beating at the arena tournament in two weeks!"

Shen Daodao wanted to say something more, but Li Sheng's alpaca came out.

Level 8 Blackwater Alpaca!

"That shameless Li Sheng is bullying the weak!" Shen Daodao gritted his teeth.

If he doesn't back down, given Li Sheng's temper, he'll definitely find an excuse to have the alpaca cripple his Dragon Blood Lion!

Other teachers wouldn't do something like this.

But that bastard Li Sheng is really capable of doing it!

"snort!"

Shen Daodao gave a cold laugh, and the Dragon Blood Lion beneath his feet carried him slowly toward the gate of the War God Academy.

After walking a short distance, Shen Daodao said loudly, "The prestigious War God Academy has no one daring to accept the challenge! Alas!"

Li Sheng's alpaca was enraged and spat out a mouthful of black saliva.

But Shen Daodao was prepared. The Dragon Blood Lion charged forward, creating a gust of wind as it sped away, dodging the Black Water Alpaca's spittle.

Meanwhile, even Chu Xuan's gaze turned somewhat gloomy.

The students of the War God Academy all showed expressions of anger.

"Alright, everyone, you can all leave now!"

Li Sheng waved his hand, dispersing the crowd.

Ye Hao pulled Chu Xuan aside to discuss countermeasures.

Fang Qingqing felt heavy-hearted and prepared to return to the girls' dormitory.

Suddenly, Chen Fan darted out from the side and waved at Fang Qingqing.

"Chen Fan?"

Fang Qingqing paused for a moment, then walked over.

Chen Fan glanced around furtively, then led Fang Qingqing to a corner and said, "Qingqing, let me help you raise your tamed beasts? My fees aren't high, I can..."

"Chen Fan!" Fang Qingqing, in a bad mood, spoke with a slightly harsher tone: "I really don't have the mood to think about these things right now..."

"You saw what just happened."

"People from Huanhai Academy have come knocking on our door."

"But we have no other options."

"I need to calm down and think about a solution."

Seeing Chen Fan frown, Fang Qingqing's tone softened considerably: "I'm sorry, I'm not in a good mood today, and my tone was a bit harsh, but I'm angry at Shen Daodao, angry at myself... I'm angry at myself for being so weak, for having no way to deal with this kind of provocation."

Chen Fan nodded without saying anything.

Fang Qingqing sighed inwardly.

Why should I tell him all this?

Although he possesses extraordinary skills in healing and controlling beasts, he has only just entered the War God Academy and hasn't had time to cultivate yet.

Fang Qingqing said softly, "You probably didn't get enough rest during the assessment in the Black Ant Forest. And now you've been woken up by Shen Daodao... You should go back and get some rest; school hasn't started yet anyway."

With that, she turned to leave.

"Wait a moment."

Chen Fan called out to Fang Qingqing, then took off the jade ornament from his head and said, "Take a look, isn't my jade ornament different from before?"

"What?" Fang Qingqing frowned slightly and looked at Jade.

The jade in Chen Fan's hand seemed to have grown considerably larger.

The color seems to have changed... it's become greener.

In addition, strange, storm-like patterns appeared on the emerald green body.

Fang Qingqing remembered very clearly that the jadeite did not have this pattern on it before.

The strangest thing is that, in Fang Qingqing's perception, Jade seems to have a "fierce" aura that it didn't have before!

What's going on?

Then Chen Fan smiled wickedly and said, "My Emerald's combat power level has broken through from level 2 to level 3."

Fang Qingqing's face paled: "What...what did you say?!"
