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

Behind Lu Yu and Jiang Xueying.

Wearing martial arts armor and holding an alloy steel knife, Xu Sheng said with a forced smile.

If we were to ask who in Class 9 of Senior Three hates Lu Yu the most, it would be...

Xu Sheng definitely deserves a mention.

On the one hand, he disliked Lu Yu, and on the other hand, whenever he spoke ill of Lu Yu, he would be met with a fierce scolding from Jiang Xueying.

Jiang Xueying is the principal's daughter, so of course he dared not offend her, and even when he was scolded, he dared not speak out.

But Lu Yu?

Xu Sheng could still afford to offend a useless beast tamer!

Who knows how long Xu Sheng had been waiting for this day of the final exam!

This is not.

As soon as Lao Wang announced the disbandment of the team and that the students would enter the trial grounds for assessment, Xu Sheng couldn't wait any longer and immediately turned hostile!

There was no other way; he endured it for three whole years!

He finally got the chance for the final practical assessment. If he didn't show his true colors, he would be letting down Jiang Xueying, who had scolded him for the past three years!

"Xu Sheng, it's you again!"

Jiang Xueying turned her head angrily, and when she saw him, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.

This guy has become completely shameless; no amount of cursing will work!

"Jiangda's campus belle, the assessment has already begun."

"The rules don't allow students to fight amongst themselves; otherwise, they'll be disqualified immediately. You'd better think it over."

When Xu Sheng saw Jiang Xueying approaching with a gleaming alloy battle knife, he took two steps back, but still mustered his courage and shouted.

This shout even attracted the attention of a group of teachers leading the team not far away.

"asshole!"

Jiang Xueying's pretty face was burning with anger, but for the moment she really couldn't do anything about Xu Sheng.

Lu Yu, on the other hand, remained calm and composed.

He just looked at Xu Sheng calmly.

He's just a clown, a fly, not worth Lu Yu losing his composure over.

"Heh, you're still showing off!"

"A useless beast tamer, a gigolo who only knows how to live off women, actually thinks he's someone important?"

"I'd like to see you scrambling to escape when the Gold-Eating Rats come chasing you!"

"I'm going to film this and post it directly on the school forum when I get back, to make you famous!"

Xu Sheng was clearly bursting with pent-up frustration, and one sentence after another came out.

Lu Yu, however, didn't give him another glance, turned around and walked straight into the trial area.

Based on his many years of experience reading novels in his previous life.

These mindless, confrontational villains are usually the first to be eliminated; they don't live long.

There's no need to waste any time or effort on him.

"Fuck you!"

"Are you kidding me?!"

Xu Sheng panicked when he saw that Lu Yu was ignoring him!

He strode out and followed directly behind Lu Yu.

He held a sword in his right hand and... a portable camera in his left!

Seeing this, Jiang Xueying gritted her teeth and quickly followed.

She wasn't worried that Xu Sheng would harm Lu Yu; after all, the rules restricted him, and even if Xu Sheng was bold, he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Lu Yu.

She was worried that Lu Yu might be filmed in a bad way, ruining his reputation.

"At worst, I'll forcefully help Lu Yu out of this predicament; if he fails the assessment, he fails!"

Jiang Xueying made up her mind.

……

……

K2 Trial Area.

A dense forest.

Three figures, two in front and one behind, moved through the crowd.

The trial area was very large. After more than a thousand students entered, they were mostly scattered and rarely met each other.

Lu Yu's side is an exception.

Jiang Xueying was beside him, while Xu Sheng, holding a camera, followed closely behind.

"That persistent ghost!"

Jiang Xueying turned around and glanced at it, then angrily cursed.

Lu Yu completely ignored Xu Sheng.

He was observing the direction.

His initial target wasn't the Gold-Eating Rat at all, but the K3 area!

That area might be hiding a king-level behemoth!

However, the K2 area is quite large, and even if you cross it at the fastest speed, it will probably take two or three hours.

squeak--!

Squeak squeak squeak—!

Suddenly.

The once quiet forest, where only the sound of three people stepping on fallen leaves could be heard, was suddenly filled with a sharp grinding sound.

"It's a gold-eating rat!"

Jiang Xueying let out a soft cry, immediately preparing for battle, mobilizing her internal energy, and cautiously observing her surroundings.

She is now at the peak of the third tier, so of course she is not afraid of ordinary gold-devouring rats that are only at the second tier.

Such solemnity stemmed from concern that Lu Yu might encounter danger.

Behind the two.

Xu Sheng, whose arms were aching from carrying the camera the whole way, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes.

"Hahaha!"

"It's finally here!"

He even shouted it out on purpose.

"asshole!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xueying let out a sharp shout.

Doesn't Xu Sheng know that when encountering mutated beasts in the wild, you absolutely must not make any loud noises, as that will attract the mutated beasts?

Xu Sheng knew, of course he knew!

He did it on purpose!

squeak--!

Squeak squeak squeak—!

really.

After Xu Sheng shouted that...

The previously soft grinding of teeth suddenly became even sharper.

whoosh-

next moment.

A dark golden figure darted out from the dense forest beside them!

Squeak squeak squeak—!

The sharp grinding sound was incredibly grating.

Gold-eating rat!

Second-tier mutated beast!

High in both offense and defense, and extremely fast!

If an ordinary person encounters a gold-eating rat, they won't even be able to see its appearance before being torn apart and killed!

"Damn!"

"What the hell are you doing coming at me?"

"Go find Lu Yu up ahead!"

Seeing the gold-devouring rats rushing towards him, Xu Sheng cursed angrily.

But he was ultimately a peak second-tier martial artist.

He immediately mobilized his internal energy.

Swah——

The sword in his hand swept across.

With a clang, it struck the golden figure in mid-air!

Until this moment.

Lu Yu finally got a clear look at the Gold-Eating Rat.

It's not very big, about the same size as a regular house cat.

But its body is covered with sharp golden thorns, making it look extremely sharp.

Her little face had a pair of eyes that darted around, clearly showing she possessed a certain level of intelligence.

Mutant beasts are not animals. While they gain powerful combat abilities due to the erosion of source energy, the shackles on their intelligence are also partially unlocked.

It is said that some high-level mutated beasts can even speak human language!

squeak--!

Squeak squeak squeak—!

Just as Lu Yu was thinking about these things.

A more intense grinding sound rang out.

One after another, the gold-devouring rats darted out of the dense forest!

At first glance, there are five of them, all of them are at the second tier!

This time, their target is Lu Yu, who is at the very front!

In the Gold-Eating Rat's perception...

Lu Yu is the weakest human among the three, and his flesh and blood smell... so good!

"Hahaha!"

Xu Sheng, who was about to raise his knife to slash at the gold-devouring rat in front of him, burst into laughter upon seeing this scene.

At the critical moment.

He even stopped the knife he was about to swing.

Instead, he raised the camera in his left hand and aimed it at Lu Yu!

He would be willing to be bitten by the Gold-Eating Rat just to capture this scene of Lu Yu's disheveled state!

"Lu Yu, watch out!"

Jiang Xueying let out a soft cry and rushed out to block Lu Yu's path.

But at that very moment...

whoosh-

A dark shadow appeared out of thin air!

squeak--!!

In that instant.

The five Gold-Eating Rats that were originally charging towards Lu Yu suddenly stopped in mid-air and turned to run away!

This situation...

It was like a mouse seeing a cat!

Meow~~

And the next moment.

The dark figure actually let out a lazy meow.

then.

The dark figure vanished from the spot!

Its speed was so fast that it even left behind afterimages!

Even Jiang Xueying, whose cultivation level had reached the peak of the third rank, couldn't see the specific movements of the black shadow!

Whoosh-!

The sound of wind breaking rang out.

The dark figure had already appeared in front of the five gold-devouring rats.

It casually swung out one of its claws.

pat--!

A deep, muffled sound rang out.

The corpses of five gold-devouring rats fell from the sky, perfectly aligned!

Quesanti makes his debut!

Sold out instantly!

"Awooo—!"

But soon, a heart-wrenching scream rang out.

Xu Sheng was bitten hard by the Gold-Eating Rat!

Moreover, the bite was in a rather unfortunate location...
