29: Molten Mountain
"Manager Gu Xu, does this count as passing the assessment?"
After putting away the Nether Wolf's Vicious Beast core and Xiao Xuan, Su Yuan looked innocently at Gu Xu, who was standing beside him, dumbfounded by the strength Xiao Xuan had just displayed.
"Er, naturally, you have passed."
Watching Su Yuan's innocent expression, and thinking back to the swift and skillful movements Xiao Xuan had used to kill the Nether Wolf, Gu Xu's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
The Adventurers Guild's assessment only required the participant to defeat the assessment Vicious Beast. By killing the Nether Wolf, Su Yuan had already caused the Adventurers Guild to lose a Vicious Beast used for assessments.
However, after killing the Nether Wolf, Su Yuan had even taken the Nether Wolf's core first. Looking at it, he clearly had no intention of handing it over to the Adventurers Guild to offset their losses.
This left Gu Xu feeling speechless.
However, after witnessing the powerful combat strength of Su Yuan's Beast, Gu Xu already viewed Su Yuan in a new light.
He would naturally not hold it against Su Yuan that he had taken the Nether Wolf's Vicious Beast core.
Moreover, for the Adventurers Guild, a mere Awakening-level Rank 1 Nether Wolf was only worth about twenty or thirty thousand.
If it died, it died; it was of no great consequence.
"Hahaha, that is only natural! Little brother, your strength is superb; it truly opened my eyes!"
"I will have someone process the relevant paperwork for you right away."
"By the way, with such talent, may I ask how to address you, little brother?"
"Once I know your name, I can have my subordinates register you."
Facing Su Yuan's inquiry, Gu Xu fell silent for a moment before laughing out loud and asking.
"Su Yuan."
Su Yuan replied in a low voice.
"Su Yuan... that name sounds somewhat familiar..."
"Wait! Isn't this the Genius from Tianyang No. 1 High School who recently awakened a Grade A Beast Taming Talent?"
"And it is said that Su Yuan received a Blastoise as his Beast from the Tianyang City breeding center. The Beast this kid just used also happens to be a turtle-type Beast."
"With all these signs, his identity must be correct!"
"It's just that the strength of the turtle-type Beast Su Yuan just summoned is simply not comparable to a Blastoise."
"Could it be that Su Yuan has already evolved his Blastoise into a perfect quality Tsunami Turtle?"
"That is too monstrous! In all my years, I have never seen a perfect quality Beast!"
Upon hearing Su Yuan's answer, Gu Xu was shocked and immediately recalled some information about Su Yuan.
When he looked at Su Yuan again, the surprise in his eyes was even greater.
A Blastoise is only a rare quality Vicious Beast, and an Ordinary Rank 8 Blastoise would absolutely not be able to defeat an Awakening-level Rank 1 Nether Wolf.
Even after a Blastoise has evolved once, a superior quality Water King Turtle would not be able to do it either.
Only the final evolution of a Blastoise, a perfect quality Tsunami Turtle, would have the ability to kill an Awakening-level Rank 1 Nether Wolf while at Ordinary Rank 8.
Having learned Su Yuan's identity, Gu Xu did not dare to delay. He immediately took out his communicator and arranged for his subordinates to register Su Yuan as an adventurer.
After doing this, Gu Xu arranged for Adventurers Guild staff to clean up the Nether Wolf corpse in the arena.
He then accompanied Su Yuan as they left the assessment area.
...
A quarter of an hour later, after receiving his adventurer badge and accepting several highly rewarding missions, Su Yuan walked out of the Adventurers Guild, hailed a vehicle, and headed towards the gates of Tianyang City.
"Tianyun City is adjacent to Tianyang City; both are cities surrounding the Misty Forest."
"Between the two lies the Molten Volcano Mountains, which contains many fire-attribute Vicious Beasts."
"The fire elements in the Molten Volcano Mountains are extremely dense, absolutely an excellent place for Xiao Yan to increase its strength."
"There are still three months until the college entrance examination. I will spend this time training in the Molten Volcano Mountains."
After half an hour, Su Yuan arrived at the gates of Tianyang City by vehicle. He glanced at the map in his hand and formed a plan in his mind.
Su Yuan had originally intended to go to Tianyun City to visit the Voodoo Jungle.
And if he wanted to better hunt Vicious Beasts in the Voodoo Jungle and find suitable plant-type Vicious Beasts to contract.
Su Yuan had to cultivate the strength of his only fire-type Beast, Xiao Yan.
Only then, with a fire-type Beast that countered plant-type Vicious Beasts, could he be more at ease in the Voodoo Jungle.
Therefore, Su Yuan had already decided on his field training plan before going to the Adventurers Guild.
The Adventurers Guild missions he accepted were all related to the Molten Volcano Mountains.
Furthermore, every mission was a long-term mission with no strict time limit.
This made it more convenient for Su Yuan to train in the Molten Volcano Mountains.
Even if Su Yuan passed through the Molten Volcano Mountains, went to Tianyun City, entered the Voodoo Jungle, and then returned to Tianyang City, he could still turn in the missions.
Outside the city, after identifying the general direction, Su Yuan put away the map and summoned Xiao Xuan to carry him towards the Molten Volcano Mountains.
Although Tianyun City and Tianyang City were adjacent, surrounding the Misty Forest, the distance between them was over two hundred kilometers.
The Molten Volcano Mountains in between was eighty kilometers away from Tianyang City.
Even with a Beast like Xiao Xuan, whose strength was comparable to the Awakening-level, to help him travel.
Because Xiao Xuan did not excel at speed, and coupled with the fact that some Vicious Beasts would occasionally jump out in the wild to block their path.
Therefore, it took Su Yuan two hours on the road to reach the outskirts of the Molten Volcano Mountains.
Just as he arrived at the outskirts of the Molten Volcano Mountains, Su Yuan clearly felt that the surrounding temperature had risen significantly.
After arriving at the outskirts of the Molten Volcano Mountains, Su Yuan looked up to see mountain peaks connecting in the distance, stretching on endlessly.
Some mountain tops were emitting rolling heat, and the air above the steaming volcanoes was slightly distorted.
The mountain tops reflected a deep red color.
These were all volcanoes, and the red color on the mountain tops was the color of the magma in the crater reflecting into the surrounding air.
"This is the Molten Volcano Mountains; it is much more spectacular than it looked on TV."
On Xiao Xuan's back, Su Yuan looked at the scenery before him with a smile on his face.
Subsequently, Su Yuan looked at Xiao Xuan and said to it:
"Xiao Xuan, let's go. We'll just look for Vicious Beasts in the outskirts to hunt."
"You are a water-attribute Beast; when encountering the fire-attribute Vicious Beasts of these Molten Volcano Mountains, you will perfectly counter them."
"Huff, huff!"
Hearing Su Yuan's words, Xiao Xuan nodded obediently, then strode forward, carrying Su Yuan to hunt for surrounding Vicious Beasts in the outskirts of the Molten Volcano Mountains.
Before long, Su Yuan and Xiao Xuan encountered the first Vicious Beast in the outskirts of the Molten Volcano Mountains.

"A Candlelight Spider, I've encountered a familiar Vicious Beast again, but this strength is a bit weak."
"Xiao Xuan, take it out!"
Looking at the millstone-sized Candlelight Spider that had appeared before him, Su Yuan smiled lightly and gave the order easily.
