Reborn as the Candle Dragon, I became the strongest academy guardian beast.

"My mission is complete."

"The rest is up to you!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfeng smiled slightly, stepped out from his hiding place, and stood in front of Kong Bowen.

With Kong Bowen constantly attracting hatred, the number of beasts has expanded to over a thousand.

Moreover, a considerable number of them are second- or even third-tier ferocious beasts!

Thousands of ferocious beasts!

Chu Yunfeng could almost see hundreds of thousands of points waving at him.

He had finished chanting long ago, just waiting for the beast tide to arrive so he could start reaping the rewards.

"roar!"

Seeing that someone dared to stand in Kong Bowen's way, the beasts let out a deafening roar.

The Flame Lion was even more enraged, its body engulfed in dark blue flames. It stomped its four paws on the ground and roared as it charged towards Chu Yunfeng like a burning meteor.

Chu Yunfeng merely raised his eyelids, calmly gazing at the Flaming Lion, and softly uttered a few words:

"Forbidden Spell, True Thousand Hands!"

The moment he finished speaking, the ground behind Chu Yunfeng collapsed with a deafening roar.

A majestic wooden Buddha statue, as tall as a mountain, suddenly rose from the crack!

The Buddha statue sits cross-legged on the ground, with its eyes slightly closed and its face compassionate and solemn.

Behind him, hundreds of giant wooden hands stretched out in layers, ten, a hundred, a thousand... The dense arms covered the sky, each palm flowing with ancient Sanskrit, obscuring the entire sky.

The Flame Lion's charge came to an abrupt halt.

It looked up at the towering Buddha statue and instinctively felt fear.

The thousands of ferocious beasts behind them also showed fear.

However, it was too late.

Chu Yunfeng raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread.

The thousand-armed Buddha statue behind them moved at the same time.

One, two, three...

Thousands of giant Buddha hands slammed down in sync with Chu Yunfeng's movements.

This scene was like divine punishment descending upon the world.

"boom!"

The earth trembled violently, and countless ferocious beasts were instantly smashed into mincemeat by the Buddha's hand.

A few surviving ferocious beasts were about to turn and flee when they saw the thousands of Buddha hands rise again and then slam down...

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"..."

After countless blows, all the ferocious beasts died, none surviving.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly across the ground, and the earth collapsed with a deafening roar!

[Defeat 1056 ferocious beasts, earn 587,682 points]

Only after seeing the notification on the bracelet did Chu Yunfeng withdraw his hand, and the wooden Buddha behind him slowly dissipated.

……

Beyond the Green Mountain Secret Realm.

[Slay 1056 ferocious beasts]

[Qinglong Academy Points Earned: 587,682]

The moment they saw the number 58, everyone's eyes widened.

"580,000 points? Am I seeing things?!"

"An extra 580,000 all at once? What exactly did Qinglong Academy do in there?"

"A total of 700,000 points. I never expected that White Tiger Academy, which has maintained its first place for ten consecutive years, would not even have a fraction of Azure Dragon Academy's score this year."

"More than that! The combined points of all the schools participating today probably don't even equal those of Azure Dragon Academy!"

[Azure Dragon Academy Reputation +100]

[Azure Dragon Academy Reputation +100]

[Azure Dragon Academy Reputation +200]

[Congratulations, host, you have received a reward of 10000 Evolution Points!]

[Current evolution points: 94000/100000]

[Host's Realm: Lord Level 8 → Lord Level 9]

"Six thousand evolution points remain."

Su Chen yawned.

He was more concerned about another set of data than that.

Azure Dragon Academy

[Rank: 1 stars (468/500)]

[Reputation: 50]

Number of people: 23516

[Review: An unremarkable, third-rate college]

It seems like I'm about to get promoted.

"System, what are the rewards for advancing to a two-star academy?" Su Chen asked.

[Ding! Upon promotion to a two-star academy, the system will issue a deluxe gift pack.]

"Oh? What's in the gift bag?" Su Chen's snake-like eyes lit up slightly.

[The contents are confidential, but I guarantee that the host will be satisfied.]

"This system has even learned to cater to my tastes?"

Su Chen made a comment, but he wasn't in a hurry.

There are only five minutes left until the end of the secret realm.

Soon, the martial arts tournament will come to a close.

……

Some are happy, some are sad.

Looking at the data on the leaderboard, Han Xiao's expression grew increasingly grim.

He thought that in this final period, White Tiger Academy could seize the opportunity to overtake Azure Dragon Academy, but reality gave him a harsh slap in the face.

"580,000 points? How is that possible..."

Han Xiao looked at Zhou Guoliang, opened his mouth, and was about to say something.

A woman in formal attire walked up to Zhou Guoliang before him and said in a low voice, "Director, there's something important to report from the hospital..."

The woman whispered something in Zhou Guoliang's ear.

"What?" Zhou Guoliang's pupils suddenly dilated upon hearing this.

However, the old director quickly adjusted his expression, and no abnormality could be seen on his face.

"I see."

Zhou Guoliang glanced at Han Xiao without making a sound.

The usually gentle and kind old man had a hint of anger in his eyes that he had never shown before.

……

The secret realm of Qingshan.

Looking at the scene before her, Song Yufei's eyes were filled with shock.

She originally intended to stay far away and reap the benefits, watching Kong Bowen be killed by the beast tide.

But she never expected that the beast tide composed of thousands of ferocious beasts would be completely wiped out in the blink of an eye!

Students who enter the secret realm are at most at the third level, how could they possibly possess such destructive power?

Song Yufei suddenly had a bad feeling.

In her memory, there was only one person who possessed such terrifying power!

In the center of the battlefield, where everything was in ruins, the dust and smoke were slowly dissipating.

"Song... Senior Song! Look over there!" A girl next to me suddenly shouted.

Following the direction of her finger, Song Yufei suddenly looked up.

Finally, a familiar figure slowly came into her view.

Instantly, Song Yufei's pupils shrank, and her face turned deathly pale.

Chu Yunfeng?

How is that possible?

Chu Yunfeng... wasn't he already killed by her long ago?
