Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 14: Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Soul Beast Meat, Comparable to a Cultivation Cheat Device

After finishing the dragon claw, Jiang Shaojun asked Xu Beichen, "Boss, where did you get this dragon claw?"

"A while ago, my master killed a fire dragon in the wild."

Xu Beichen took a sip of hot tea before replying slowly.

"Master? How come I've never heard you mention him before?"

Jiang Shaojun was stunned for a moment, then a look of realization appeared on his face.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes perfect sense. Neither unparalleled culinary skills nor boundless magical knowledge could be developed through solitary study.

"My master is elusive; I only see him a few times a year. This fire dragon was given to me a month ago," Xu Beichen said.

"To casually kill a sub-dragon, that's truly terrifying strength." Jiang Shaojun clicked his tongue in amazement.

A fully grown pseudo-dragon can grow to the level of a Grand Commander, while a sub-dragon has an even higher bloodline, with a fully grown sub-dragon generally fluctuating around the level of a Monarch.

Dragons with high bloodlines can reach at least the mid-level monarch rank upon adulthood, while dragons with low bloodlines may only reach the sub-monarch rank upon adulthood, or even lower.

This dragon claw possesses extremely strong fire attribute energy, and its bloodline is definitely at least at the monarch level!

Generally speaking, it takes more than five super-level mages to kill a monarch-level demon, and the dragon is much more difficult to deal with than other demons.

Xu Beichen smiled and changed the subject, saying, "After eating this fire dragon meat, did you feel any improvement in your cultivation?"

In the past two months, Xu Beichen has cultivated his fire element to the third level of the intermediate stage, thanks in large part to the fire dragon meat.

However, Jiang Shaojun's cultivation level had already reached the advanced stage, and he was unsure whether there would be any noticeable effects.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shaojun immediately closed his eyes and sensed it.

The next moment, Jiang Shaojun suddenly opened his eyes, exclaiming with great surprise, "My Light System Star River has loosened slightly! This flesh actually has an effect similar to the Star Sea Celestial Vein!"

Jiang Shaojun majored in the Mind System, secondarily in the Light System, and minored in the Water System. Before going into seclusion, he had already achieved high-level mastery of all three systems.

Xu Beichen remained calm. His god-level culinary skills, combined with the meat of a ten-thousand-year-old dragon soul beast, made it the best cultivation resource.

Although it doesn't have the vast energy of the Star Sea Celestial Vein, it has no side effects whatsoever, and there's no limit to how much it can be absorbed.

"Boss, do you still have any meat?"

Jiang Shaojun rubbed his hands together and looked at Xu Beichen with a fawning expression.

"There's a little left, but I kept it to aid my cultivation," Xu Beichen said.

"what?"

Jiang Shaojun looked disappointed. If he could keep eating it for a long time, his light and water elements would both break through to the super level in less than half a year!

"When Master kills another sub-dragon next time, I'll share some with you," Xu Beichen said.

Once he breaks through to a higher level in the fire element, he will definitely exchange for a dragon soul beast.

Jiang Shaojun nodded helplessly. If he had the strength to do so, he would have liked to go out into the wild and kill a dragon right now.

Time flies, and in the last challenge week of the school year, Xu Beichen chose to challenge the nineteenth place on the Fire Ranking.

As for why they didn't challenge the twentieth place, it's because the twentieth place is Dongfang Ling.

It wasn't that Xu Beichen didn't want to take action against someone he knew, but rather that he genuinely didn't have much confidence in doing so.

Chaos magic is most effective against Destruction Mages, while Necromancers and Summoners are the most effective counters to Chaos magic. Chaos magic has little effect on summoned creatures.

For example, the Gate of Chaos cannot reflect physical attacks, which is equivalent to rendering a powerful skill useless in the face of summoned beasts.

Moreover, Dongfang Ling's contracted beast is the Flaming Lion, which possesses strength, speed, and elemental power. He simply cannot win by relying on fire-type attacks.

Wei Rong, sitting in the referee's seat, glanced at Xu Beichen. He was already used to the 50th-ranked person challenging the 19th-ranked person.

Anything is possible in the face of this monster!

"Xu Beichen, ranked 50th, challenges Zhao Ming, ranked 19th."

"The challenge begins!"

On the competition field, Zhao Ming heard the sound and acted decisively, quickly completing the drawing of the star map, and slamming his fiery fists into the ground.

"Fierce Fist - Earthly Fiend!"

A raging inferno erupted from the ground, the terrifying flames engulfing the area where Xu Beichen was located.

The second level of Fierce Fist is an area-of-effect attack, which clearly shows that Zhao Ming had prior knowledge of the Chaos system.

but!

The flames dissipated quickly, and Xu Beichen appeared unharmed in his field of vision. Upon closer inspection, he saw a downward-facing chaotic surface on the ground.

Xu Beichen only defended against the pillars of fire beneath his feet. He was absorbing a powerful spiritual seed, so this temperature was nothing to him.

"No wonder you dared to challenge me."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Zhao Ming wasn't too surprised. He was just testing the waters with this move; the Chaos Element was indeed incredibly powerful.

"Hehe, if you still have any trump cards, use them as soon as possible, otherwise you won't have another chance," Xu Beichen said calmly.

Seeing that Xu Beichen did not retaliate for a long time, Wei Rong, who was in the referee's seat, frowned. He knew very well that Zhao Ming's real strength was not in fire.

"Is that so?"

Zhao Ming revealed a cold smile. The scorching temperature on the field began to drop rapidly, and snow began to fall from the already chaotic field, with thick ice forming on the ground.

Xu Beichen remained calm, possessing a powerful spiritual seed like the Desolate Flame, and was completely unafraid of his mid-level ice magic.

"Ice Thorn Spear!"

Unlike ordinary mid-level ice magic, Zhao Ming did not use chains of ice, but instead condensed extremely cold ice spears!

Xu Beichen's expression changed slightly. With his intermediate-level control, how could he possibly change a magic spell?

To achieve this level, one would need to be at least a high-ranking ice mage!

"Could it be a demonic artifact?"

While Xu Beichen was pondering, five ice thorn spears were already flying towards him. If he were hit, he would likely be pierced through!

"The Gate of Chaos!"

Xu Beichen created four chaotic surfaces in one go, completely sealing them off in front of him, and released the Earthly Fiend Flames he had previously absorbed.

The five ice thorn spears shot directly out of the Earthly Fiend Flames. Although they were partially melted, their speed did not slow down at all.

In the blink of an eye, the Ice Thorn Spear had completely pierced into the chaotic surface. Although the chaotic surface expanded somewhat, it fortunately did not collapse.

"Although the attack method has changed, the power has not increased much."

Xu Beichen breathed a sigh of relief. He had just thought that this guy had some kind of innate talent that could produce effects similar to mutated star particles.

However, if he truly possessed that ability, he wouldn't have remained at nineteenth place.

"Admit defeat, or I'll let you taste the power of your own magic."

Xu Beichen turned the chaotic surface in one direction and then said to Zhao Ming.

These five ice thorn spears possess immense penetrating power, making them impossible for ordinary armor and magical artifacts to withstand.

"I surrender."
