Chapter 61: Chapter 51: Three Guardian Beasts’ Strength Surges, Yet Chen Fan Becomes a Bit Uneasy

School finally starts…
Sitting in the last row of the classroom in Senior Year Beast Taming Class 5, Chen Fan has a feeling of being in a different world.
“Eight main channels connect the Nine Apertures, Nine Apertures determine the Ten Directions, Ten Directions converge on the Spirit Platform, and the Spirit Platform ascends to the Heavenly Gate.”
“Heavenly Gate overcomes life and death, life and death enter reincarnation, reincarnation can connect to heaven, connect to heaven and forge legends!”
“Star Martial Artists and Guardian Beastmasters share the same cultivation realm, both divided into nine ranks. The first rank opens eight main channels, the second rank connects the Nine Apertures, the third rank determines the Ten Directions, and the fourth rank converges on the Spirit Platform… Each rank is further divided into Five Heavens.
“To break through to the first-grade realm, one must open eight main channels and at least seventy-two collateral channels!”
Li Sheng stands on the podium, passionately lecturing about the basic cultivation methods of War God Academy.
The students listen attentively, jotting down key points as they listen.
Many also turn on their “computers”, cross-referencing as they listen.
Chen Fan, however, feels like taking a nap… because Li Sheng has already taught him these points.
Furthermore, he stayed up late last night helping Snowy, Feicui, and Gangzi level up, only getting to sleep very late.
Due to incomplete materials, Snowy’s Combat Power Level remains at 4, but its Species Level increased to High/Awakened.
After the Species Level increased to High/Awakened, Snowy’s “Thunder Cat
Claw” evolved into “Thunder Blade.”
After the claw attack, the previous Thunder Cat Claw turned into a fierce blade condensed by the Power of Thunder and Lightning, extremely domineering.
Feicui’s Combat Power Level increased to 4, and its Species Level rose to High/Extraordinary.
After leveling up to High/Extraordinary, patterns on Feicui’s body related to Storm become more distinct.
Chen Fan has a premonition that perhaps when Feicui breaks through from
“High/Extraordinary” to “Lord/Low,” it might evolve into a “Storm Slime.” With both Combat Power Level and Soecies Level increased. Feicui awakened a skill called “Water Dragon Roar.” Its previous skill “Storm” also evolved into “Storm Tear.”
Suddenly, Feicui, who was once considered to have little offensive power, becomes incredibly powerful.
Feicui, with its dual attributes of water and wind, awakened a water-based skill for the first time.
“Water Dragon Roar” is, without a doubt, one of the more formidable water-based skills.
As for “Storm Tear”…
Feicui’s original Storm skill was already quite powerful, capable of uprooting trees within Gangzi’s little forest.
With the transformation into “Storm Tear,” the skill should now shred uprooted trees (or enemies)!
The appearance of these two skills immediately frees Feicui from its mascot status.
Although it still appears cute and adorable, if it were to use these skills in combat, it’s likely to scare the wits out of many people.
However, due to the late hour, Chen Fan didn’t test Feicui and Snovvy’s current strengths.
Before going to sleep, Chen Fan compared the skills of Snowy and Feicui and felt that Feicui still couldn’t beat Snowy.
That’s because Snowy’s Thunder Blade is not a physical skill and can harm Feicui.
Snowy’s Thunder Flash is almost uncounterable for Feicui… Even if Feicui wraps Snowy up high in the air, Snowy can instantly escape the storm using Thunder Flash.
This is a bit awkward…
Snowy and Feicui’s current situation contradicts theoretical knowledge… Their Combat Power Levels are the same, but Feicui’s Species Level is already three tiers higher than Snowy!
Despite this, it’s likely that Feicui still can’t defeat Snowy in a fight.
Is it because Snowy is too formidable and extraordinary, breaking the norm?
Or is it because Feicui is still too weak, weaker than other Guardian Beasts of the same level?
After some thought, Chen Fan guesses that Snowy’s Thunder attribute might give it an innate advantage.
Especially its skills—Thunder Blade is both fast and fierce, regular Guardian Beasts can’t dodge it and can only endure it, yet it’s uncertain whether they can withstand it.
Thunder Flash is even more outrageous, rapidly flashing left and right, even causing Chen Fan’s eyes to blur.
If they were to fight now, the adorable Feicui might still simply get beaten up.
As for Gangzi…
Last night, Gangzi’s Combat Power Level increased to 3, and its Species Level also increased to “High/Awakened.”
After reaching the “High/Awakened” Species Level, Gangzi’s “Sharp Rock Spike” skill evolved into “Purple Crystal Spike.”
Its “Stone Skin” skill also evolved into “Purple Crystal Armor!”
This excited Gangzi so much that it didn’t sleep all night and ran around in the Beastmaster’s Space. From time to time, it would cover itself in a layer of Purple Crystal Armor and walk past Snowy, nearly driving Snowy crazy.
After being scolded by Snowy with a series of meows, Gangzi finally behaved and went to sleep.
Chen Fan casually picked up a piece of paper and wrote down Snowy and the others’ skills, planning to go to the Beast Trainer Association training ground for practice after school in the afternoon… because the school’s public training ground was too small, and the specialized training grounds were not only expensive but also required waiting in line.
Previously, his master Zhang Hai had mentioned that he had prepared a dedicated room and training ground for Chen Fan.
At the same time, there would also be Flying Guardian Beasts to transport him.
So, Chen Fan decisively chose to go to the Beast Trainer Association to train his Guardian Beasts.
Feeling a bit apprehensive…
As Snowy and the others’ strength increased rapidly, Chen Fan felt both happy and uneasy… Many people now knew that his Ragdoll cat was at level 3, and if they were to break through to level 5 or even level 6 in just a few days, it would easily attract trouble.
It looks like, unless there is no other choice, Snowy and the others should not show too much power!
Now, Snowy and Feicui’s Combat Power Level had both reached level 4, and Feicui’s Species Level had even been upgraded to an Extraordinary/High rank. If they joined forces, it felt like they could easily take on level 5 monsters.
Gangzi was still a bit weak; although he had thick skin and strong flesh, he was only at level 3 after all. He probably still couldn’t withstand a level 5 monster’s attack.
Chen Fan would focus on upgrading Gangzi to level 4 first.
Since Gangzi had the “Purple Crystal Armor” and was a natural-born “tank,” he was suitable for attracting monsters at the front.
During a fight, if Snowy could also put on a set of “Thunder and Lightning Armor” for him, it would be interesting to see how strong his defense could be.
Chen Fan drew a triangle on the paper, with Gangzi occupying the tip of the triangle.
The left and right angles were filled by Snowy and Feicui, respectively.
It would be great if they could find a Guardian Beast with healing skills.
Chen Fan doodled a few formations on the paper.
At this moment, the back door of the classroom was pushed open, and Chu Xuan, wearing a Red Cape, walked in.
A group of female students immediately locked their eyes on Chu Xuan, each showing a love-struck expression.
The male students were jealous to death, but they couldn’t do anything about it… Chu Xuan was so outstanding that they couldn’t find any fault with him.
Li Sheng immediately stopped teaching and nodded to Chu Xuan with a smile, “Chu Xuan, you’re here, find a seat and sit down.”
A group of students: ‘ .
It was the first time they had seen a teacher being so polite to a student who was half a day late.
Chu Xuan’s face was expressionless. After glancing at Chen Fan, he sat down in the empty seat to Chen Fan’s right.
Chen Fan:
Li Sheng saw the strange looks on everyone’s faces and chuckled, “You don’t need to look at me like this. Chu Xuan had Awakened/High naturally two years ago and has already reached the First Rank Five Heavens stage, with three level 5 Guardian Beasts.”
“Not to mention the third-year seniors in East Sea City, even the freshmen and sophomores of Beastmaster University might not be his match!”
“The cultivation knowledge I’m teaching you now, if considered high school knowledge, Chu Xuan is already learning at the university junior level.” “Even if he doesn’t attend class, the school won’t say a word against it.” “In the War God Academy, the privileges he has are not just limited to this.”
“If you could have the First Rank Five Heavens strength or have a level 5 Guardian Beast, you could also be capricious like this!”
The students were all speechless.
Why is the gap between people so big?
Putting aside their Cultivation Realm, most of them didn’t even have a single Guardian Beast, while he already had three level 5 Guardian Beasts!
Alas, that’s the “neighbor’s kid” for you.
“Alright, I know what you’re thinking…
Li Sheng clapped his hands and said, “The school is soon going to send over the
Guardian Beasts they’ve prepared for everyone.”
The students immediately grew excited.
Only a few “local” students didn’t have much of a reaction.
Soon, there was a commotion in the hallway.
A group of staff members came over pushing several racks.
On the racks were placed a variety of strange silver-white “eggs” of different sizes. The small ones were about a foot tall, while the big ones were over a meter tall.
All of the “eggs” seemed to be made of a strange metal, with numerous small holes covering their surfaces. Some of the holes even emitted weird, continuous noises.
Every “egg” also had a label attached, displaying names, student numbers, and other information.
Class after class was boiling with excitement…
The Guardian Beasts were finally being delivered!
