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

"Th-thank you."

In front of the cabin.

The beast tide crisis has been averted.

Qin Shiyao dragged her exhausted body to Lu Yu, lowered her head, and remained silent for a long time before finally uttering these words.

although.

A slight blush had crept onto her face as she lowered her head.

but……

Her tone still sounded somewhat cold.

Lu Yu, however, did not pay too much attention to it.

I guess I've gotten used to it.

My cousin has always been this aloof and arrogant.

"fine."

"It was my oversight to be honest."

"After all, if Aunt Fang knew, she would definitely ask me to take good care of you in the secret realm."

Lu Yu waved his hand and said casually.

just.

The words fell.

Qin Shiyao's delicate face stiffened slightly.

"Aunt Fang?"

"Is that all...?"

She paused for a moment, then murmured to herself.

The sound was very soft, and Lu Yu couldn't hear it clearly.

As for the text message he had just received, Lu Yu did not bring it up.

I looked around.

He used some of Caesar's power in that punch just now.

So.

All one hundred strange beasts were killed, leaving not a single survivor.

For Qin Shiyao, today's beast tide assessment can be considered a formal end to the crisis.

"That……"

"If there's nothing else, I'll head back now?"

Lu Yu turned to look at Qin Shiyao and asked.

Qin Shiyao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

She pursed her lips.

After a moment of silence, he nodded.

"Okay, go find her."

Lu Yu: "..."

No.

My dear cousin.

Your words and tone... are really strange!

even.

At this moment, Lu Yu inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he were some kind of scumbag and heartless man.

This strange feeling made Lu Yu feel somewhat uneasy.

And so.

He didn't linger any longer.

hum-

Initiate space travel.

His figure vanished from the spot.

And at this moment.

Exhausted, Qin Shiyao collapsed to the ground.

Her usually cool eyes now held a hint of bewilderment.

Her gaze was fixed on the direction where Lu Yu's figure had disappeared.

"teacher……"

This moment.

Qin Shiyao was overwhelmed with a mix of inexplicable thoughts, and in her heart, she called out her teacher's name.

The Empress's voice suddenly rang out after a moment of silence.

"He came to help you; I used your bracelet to send the message."

This statement came out.

Qin Shiyao's entire body stiffened instantly!

From somewhere, strength welled up again in her exhausted body.

She quickly tapped the communication bracelet on her right wrist!

Swah——

A line of text was projected.

[Lu Yu, help me!]

[Sent to: Lu Yu!]

This moment.

The expression on Qin Shiyao's exquisite and perfect face was truly remarkable...

……

……

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye.

It's sunset again.

Lu Yu returned to his little wooden house.

Swah——

A flash of dark light.

Quesanti, in his black cat form, also appeared inside the cabin.

Meow~

When he saw Lu Yu again, Quesanti was very excited and happy.

Meow~

"Meow meow meow~"

Quesanti nuzzled against Lu Yu affectionately, making cute noises all the while.

after all.

It was almost suppressed by that wicked old man today!

At this time.

Through telepathic communication with Quesanti, Lu Yu finally learned the whole story of what happened in the wilderness today.

"You encountered Shen Tu Xiong, and a great battle ensued?"

"When they tried to kill Shen Tu Xiong, did they activate the phantom image of the Shen Tu family's sage ancestor?"

"Another mysterious and powerful phantom appeared, suppressed the Saint Ancestor of the Shentu family, and saved you?"

"..."

Listening to Quesanti's rambling story.

Lu Yu was also filled with emotion.

did not expect……

Everything that happened today was caused by myself!

but……

Although the process was full of twists and turns, the result seems to be pretty good.

By chance, Quesanti awakened a new blood element through his "Essence Devouring" talent.

Furthermore, through the 'sharing' talent, one can also control new elemental powers.

Rounding down.

Does Shen Tu Xiong also seem to be a treasure-giving boy?

As Lu Yu pondered this, a strange expression crept onto his face.

And the next moment.

slam-la-

Quesanti opened his little mouth.

A small black hole vortex appeared in his mouth.

They spat out all the beast cores as if they were free.

It was only for a short while.

The entire wooden bed was completely covered with beast cores.

hum-

buzz-

And it was at this very moment.

Outside the wooden house.

A series of tremors echoed across the sky.

Lu Yu's spirits lifted, and he looked out the window.

The rankings for the third day of assessments are about to be released!

If all goes well...

Maybe I'll get a new key tonight?

Above the sky.

A line of text appeared.

[Day 3 assessment results settlement begins!]

[53 people passed!]

[170 people eliminated!]

Just three lines of text.

But the cruelty of this beast tide test was finally revealed!

From Lu Yu's perspective.

Everything went smoothly, and the beast tide assessment even became an opportunity for beast cores to come to their door.

but……

For other students...

The beast tide, whose rank increases day by day, is becoming increasingly difficult to resist!

Of the 53 people who have survived until now, apart from Jiang Xueying and Qin Shiyao, almost all of them are outstanding talents from prominent families in Jinling and Suzhou!

Their cultivation levels were all uniformly at the mid- to late-stage of the fifth rank!

As for the early stage of the fifth rank?

not a single one!

and.

Lu Yu also noticed this.

On today's leaderboard, even those who passed the level had pitifully few points.

the vast majority.

They even had the same score as Jiang Xueying and Qin Shiyao, with 0 points...

This means that...

They managed to withstand the onslaught of a hundred beasts, but they didn't kill even a single one.

"It seems that today is the limit for many students taking the test."

"By tomorrow, when the beast tide's rank increases again, there probably won't be many left!"

Beyond the secret realm.

Many King-level powerhouses shook their heads and sighed as they looked at the published rankings and scores.

Within the secret realm.

above the sky.

This is because the number of people passing through has decreased significantly.

Not long after.

Then the names and scores of the top few will be displayed.

3rd Place: Li Wan'er

Points: 861 (287*3)

……

[2nd Place: Shen Tianzong]

Points: 912 (304*3)

……

See here.

Inside the secret realm.

Many students were immediately taken aback!

because……

Up until now.

The rankings and points for Lu Yu and Shen Tu Xiong have not yet been released!

It's normal that Lu Yu didn't appear.

If nothing unexpected happens, that guy will be number one again.

But the absence of Shen Tu Xiong makes all the difference!

"Holy crap—"

"Could it be that Shen Tu Xiong and Lu Yu have the same score today? Tied for first place?!"

Some students couldn't help but shout.

after all.

The students inside the secret realm were unaware of what had happened in the endless wilderness during the day.

now.

Even Li Wan'er and Shen Tianzong couldn't help but frown.

"Has that guy really caught up with Lu Yu's points?"

"How did you do that?"

Or perhaps...

"Has Lu Yu weakened as the beast tide's rank has increased?"

"Lu Yu isn't as monstrous as I imagined?"

The two of them couldn't help but have this thought in their minds.

And soon.

At the very top of the leaderboard.

A new line of text appeared.

[First Place: Lu Yu!]

Points: 15036 (5012*3)!

[This result breaks the historical record for the third day of the assessment!]
