99: College Entrance Examination Ends

Wherever the attack passed, it formed a massive circular space, swept clean by powerful wind-type Skills.

This circular area had become a vacuum, as if time and air had frozen there.

Even more astonishing, in this peculiar environment, the ground, originally covered by vegetation, was completely exposed, its surface condition laid bare.

One must know that, under normal circumstances, seeing such thoroughly exposed ground would be a luxury, yet at this moment, it was truly presented before people's eyes.

As the camera angle slowly rotated, people's gazes moved past this vacuum zone, focusing on the vast, boundless primeval forest behind Sprout Beast.

A jaw-dropping sight once again entered their view—an incredibly wide road appeared in the forest, like a giant axe that had forcefully cleaved through the dense jungle.

None of the trees on either side of the road were spared; they no longer stood tall and lush, but were all severely damaged, some with broken trunks lying on the ground, others with branches scattered everywhere, as if they had endured an extremely tragic disaster.

Only at this moment did everyone present truly feel the terrifying power of that Sword just now.

The might of this Sword not only destroyed all objects in its surroundings but also left an indelible impression of shock in people's hearts.

Those College Entrance Examination candidates who happened to pass by, upon witnessing such a tragic scene, all unhesitatingly chose to turn and leave.

Because they knew very well that no matter what kind of thrilling event had occurred here, for them, it would absolutely not be a good omen.

Rather than risking an investigation into the truth, it was better to quickly distance themselves from this place of trouble, so as not to invite unnecessary problems.

Only when the broadcast appeared did they understand what had happened here.

Feng Jingmo, upon hearing this, was unsure how to feel, but he truly admired Li Wen's strength. In his opinion, he was still very far from defeating the opponent.

Yet, this peer could now contend with or even defeat him.

“Candidate Li Wen has defeated Chief Examiner Qi Ling, earning 3000 points.”

Just as everyone had finally recovered from the astonishing scene, the previously frozen atmosphere in the live broadcast room was instantly broken, becoming noisy once again.

On the screen, bullet comments from netizens kept Rolling, with Netizen A being the first to speak.

“How was such a massive Sword Qi unleashed? This is simply too incredible!”

Immediately after, Netizen B echoed: “Exactly! Encountering such an outrageous student, I wonder how large the examiner's psychological shadow area must be right now?”

At this moment, Netizen C urgently shouted: “Stop discussing the shadow area! Heavenly King Yan, quickly give us a detailed explanation!”

Facing the sudden call-out, Heavenly King Yan couldn't help but look bewildered, muttering to himself.

“Hmm? Why am I being inexplicably cued? Back then, you all weren't too keen on listening to my commentary!”

However, despite a hint of complaint in his heart, he reconsidered. Since someone had proactively asked a question, he might as well take this opportunity to properly ignite everyone's passion for beast taming.

So, Heavenly King Yan cleared his throat and slowly said: “Although I don't know the specific name of this move, I can confirm that what the Sprout Beast displayed is an independent, exclusive secret Mystic form.”

“You see, every unique pet beast has the potential to meticulously design exclusive secret Mystic forms based on its own distinct traits.”

“And according to the information I know, Li Wen is also a Breeder, so the content of this secret Mystic form is probably only known to himself.”

No sooner had he finished the last word than a ringtone suddenly came from his pants pocket.

This sudden sound made Heavenly King Yan's heart tighten. He knew that at this moment, there could be no mistakes, otherwise, it would trigger a serious live broadcast accident.

So, he made a decisive decision, quickly exited the room, and handed the host's responsibility back to others.

Heavenly King Yan walked quickly towards a quiet corner, pulling out his phone from his pants pocket.

Looking at the unfamiliar number displayed on the screen, he took a deep breath before pressing the answer button.

“Hello, who is this, please?”

An urgent yet familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Stop with the pleasantries, Old Yan! Quickly get me a live video of the scene. I want to thoroughly study this newly emerged independent secret Mystic form. Remember, don't give me any of those edited, censored versions from the live broadcast room.”

Upon hearing this voice, Heavenly King Yan instantly guessed who it was—it was Heavenly King He!

He couldn't help but feel a little surprised, not expecting that this matter could even alarm this guy who usually only cared about breeding.

“Alright, no problem. But next time you ask someone for help, could you please pay a little more attention to your tone?”

However, Heavenly King He on the other end of the phone clearly didn't care, saying nonchalantly.

“Heh, who asked you for help? Me asking you to do something means I think highly of you, giving you enough face, isn't it?!”

...Li Wen stood quietly in place, patiently waiting for the assessment to end.

At this moment, he appeared exceptionally calm and composed, because with the high score he had obtained, even if he took no further action, the top spot was undoubtedly his.

As for Sprout Beast, after this fierce battle, its limits had been clearly revealed.

Although with its current strength, it was not difficult to normally defeat a high-level pet beast, facing a powerful existence like the Gale Hunting Falcon, which had reached the limit of the leader level, it was clearly out of its depth.

In fact, this victory could be said to rely entirely on the sudden burst of Life Energy.

Under the original battle situation, if the opponent's Skill were to successfully trigger Sprout Beast's Rejuvenation trait, it would have taken at least some more time.

However, at the critical moment, Sprout Beast decisively adopted a proactive strategy.

It skillfully used the secret Mystic form techniques it had mastered, leveraging the power of Life Energy, and unhesitatingly integrated its “first life” into the Mystic form of Deceiving the Heaven and Earth.

This not only triggered the Rejuvenation trait prematurely but also greatly increased the energy density, thereby turning the tide of the battle in one fell swoop and ultimately defeating the powerful enemy.

Life Vitality + Life Energy + Desperate Counterattack + Turn Danger into Safety + Deceiving the Heaven and Earth + Sword Qi = Sword of Life

This was not just a Sword infused with life, but also a Sword that carved out a path to survival.

Although powerful, it was not a move that could be normalized. Li Wen reflected that his breeding was still insufficient to allow Sprout Beast to fight two levels above its own.

This path is still long... [Congratulations, Host, you have completed the “College Entrance Examination Victory” achievement.]

[Reward obtained: “Same Source Codex”]

Seeing this sentence meant that the College Entrance Examination had officially ended.

Li Wen could also finally relax properly.
