High Martial Arts: A Cataclysmic Beast? I am the only Beast Tamer!

Within the secret realm.

Lu Yu was sleeping soundly.

It looks like he's about to drool.

But the powerful figures outside the secret realm.

They looked at each other, speechless!

"This is fucking..."

"You just fell asleep like that?"

"Lu Yu, you're the number one person to sleep in the provincial exam's secret realm!"

"I've cultivated for decades, and I've never seen such an outrageous scene!"

Above ground.

Hundreds of king-level experts were all stunned by Lu Yu's act of falling asleep on the spot.

These are the powerful figures who are usually high above others in their respective cities, receiving admiration and respect.

At this moment, they were all talking and chattering like ordinary people in the streets and alleys.

As they talked...

Inevitably, everyone's conversation once again focused on Lu Yu's unique profession as a beast tamer.

"The reason Lu Yu's current actions are so bizarre is ultimately because of his identity as a beast tamer!"

"Other student prodigies, such as Shen Tu Xiong and Li Wan'er, no matter how high their rank or how strong their combat power, still need to personally deal with the beast tide!"

"But Lu Yu is different!"

"He's a beast tamer; he can command his pet beasts in battle!"

"From this perspective, the Beastmaster profession isn't entirely without merit?"

A powerful expert at the King level looked at Lu Yu, who was sleeping soundly in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.

But the words had barely left his mouth.

This drew the ire of the other king-level powerhouses around them.

That's incorrect!

"Lord Liu, you are already a King-level expert, how can you be so blinded by a single leaf?"

"Although Lu Yu has shown considerable strength, and even managed to pull off an outrageous feat like sleeping in a secret realm, but..."

"Before him, there had never been a beast tamer!"

"Ordinary people may think that being special is a good thing, but little do they know that the more special they are, the more shrouded in mystery their path will be!"

"The Martial God himself has said that martial arts is the great path of this world, and all others are minor paths!"

"The Beastmaster class may be strong now, but what about later?"

"The road ahead is uncertain and unknown; perhaps even the King level is an insurmountable barrier!"

"..."

The numerous king-level experts spoke up, each offering their own opinion.

His tone was full of resentment.

In a few cases, the criticisms extended beyond the Beastmaster profession to include attacks on Lu Yu.

"Lu Yu's sleeping posture these days is far too frivolous!"

"With this kind of mentality, one is unlikely to achieve great things!"

"hehe!"

"This kid is just showing off for the moment!"

"Once the beast tide intensifies in the next few days, let's see if he dares to sleep like this!"

"..."

Outside the secret realm at this moment.

The group of king-level powerhouses, like cats whose tails had been stepped on, were almost all looking like they had to get it off their chests.

As for the reason?

Very simple.

These hundreds of king-level experts are all martial arts practitioners!

They are devotees of martial arts!

Lu Yu is currently making a name for himself as a Beastmaster in the secret realm.

Compared to this, all the other students and prodigies who cultivate martial arts seem like clowns!

Is this a slap in the face to the pride of students?

No.

This is a slap in the face to all martial arts practitioners!

So.

A group of king-level experts who had absolutely no connection with Lu Yu, and who had even praised him before, started pointing fingers at him.

The only one who didn't speak rudely was Jiang Zhenmin, Lu Yu's principal.

only.

Jiang Zhenmin's expression at this moment also carried a hint of worry.

"The second trial of the beast tide has only just begun, and Lu Yu is already so prominent."

"The tallest tree in the forest will be felled by the wind."

"Not to mention that Lu Yu's Beastmaster profession is so special."

"If Lu Yu's performance isn't amazing enough later on, I'm afraid..."

As Principal Jiang looked at Lu Yu, who was fast asleep on the projection screen, he couldn't help but feel a sense of worry.

……

……

the other side.

In the secret realm.

In front of hundreds of wooden houses situated on the outskirts of the forest.

The students, all over Jiang Province, are engaged in a fierce battle with the horde of strange beasts.

Outside cabin number 095.

Shen Tu Xiong, his hands wrapped in scarlet alloy gauntlets, faced the second wave of beasts, a full fifty wasteland wolves, without the slightest change in expression.

bang——

He threw punch after punch.

Each punch instantly kills a Steppenwolf!

"Weak, too weak!"

In just a few minutes.

The ground in front of Shen Tu Xiong was littered with the corpses of wasteland wolves.

Including the first wave before.

There were exactly one hundred Steppenwolf carcasses in total.

Each beast core is hidden deep within.

As for Shen Tu Xiong, he didn't even bother to pick up those third-tier beast cores.

He was the same as before.

Silently putting away his gauntlets, he sat cross-legged on the ground, beginning to recover his source energy in preparation for the upcoming beast tide.

"It would be best if more exotic beasts came, and even better if they were of higher rank."

Shen Tu Xiong muttered to himself.

For him.

A mere hundred Tier 3 Wasteland Wolves are no match for him.

……

Outside cabin number 147.

Before Li Wan'er lay rows of charred corpses.

They are all peak Tier 3 Wasteland Wolves!

but……

They didn't even get a chance to touch Li Wan'er's clothes before being slashed to death by the fiery blades.

Elemental martial arts techniques that should only be mastered by King-level martial artists were now being used directly by Li Wan'er, who was at the sixth level!

This scene.

This also drew gasps from many King-level experts outside the secret realm.

On the contrary, some of the powerful figures in Jinling were not surprised at all.

It's an open secret in Jinling City that the Li family's daughter, a prodigy, possesses a hidden fire attribute talent.

"I wonder how Lu Yu is doing?"

Li Wan'er didn't dig up the corpse or the beast core either; instead, she started talking to herself.

"Those two younger sisters are so pretty!"

"How come that jerk Lu Yu got to benefit from it?"

……

……

Outside cabin number 299.

Standing before Shen Tianzong were a hundred desert wolves, all in neat rows.

Every single one is still alive.

Each one, however, was covered in wounds.

On the faces of these Steppenwolves, one could even see a hint of human-like fear!

That's devilish, absolutely devilish!

The boy they faced unleashed sword strikes, each one deliberately avoiding vital points!

The first Steppenwolf to arrive in the arena.

At this moment, he already had over a hundred sword marks on his body.

But rather...

Shen Tianzong couldn't kill it!

He unleashed sword energy with the precision of a scalpel.

A few more minutes passed.

The sword energy had almost completely stripped away the flesh and blood of these wasteland wolves, leaving them barely recognizable as wolves.

They couldn't even stand up; instead, they all lay on the ground whimpering.

"Boring."

Swah——

Shen Tianzong eventually lost interest in practicing swordsmanship.

Without even looking up, he swung his sword again.

Within a radius of ten meters.

The sword energy roared and surged, instantly shredding hundreds of wasteland wolves to pieces!

"I really want to test my sword against Lu Yu!"

"Or perhaps testing the sword on that black cat wouldn't be bad!"

Shen Tianzong raised his head and looked at the blood and flesh fragments scattered on the ground.

Suddenly he laughed and muttered to himself.
