22: Shocked Jiang Lin

At the same time, inside Tang City.

The teleportation array glowed with a terrifying light, and dozens of figures flew out from it.

“Damn beasts, this Old guy has arrived.”

“Those who invade our home, though far, shall be slain.”

“Follow me and kill!”

These powerhouses exuded an extremely formidable aura and flew directly towards the city gate.

“Hold on, Dean, something seems a bit off.”

“It looks like the beast tide has retreated.”

A middle-aged man looked at the leading Dean, then glanced at the cheering crowd below, and was momentarily stunned.

“I truly didn't sense the aura of a Divine-level Boss; they actually retreated?”

“How is this possible?”

The leading Dean was taken aback, a look of disbelief on his face.

Once a beast tide started, it was a fight to the death; how could it possibly retreat?

“Go to the city gate and see; that Old guy Zhao Xingchen should be there.”

Those powerhouses flew directly towards the city gate.

At the city gate of Tang City, countless beast corpses were scattered on the ground, forming mountains of bodies that emitted a strong smell of blood.

Bright red blood gathered on the ground, forming a river that slowly flowed into the distance.

“Zhao Xingchen?”

“You repelled the beast tide?”

“How did you do it?”

The Dean of Imperial Martial Academy looked at Zhao Xingchen not far away and was momentarily stunned.

Zhao Xingchen was a student who came out of their Imperial Martial Academy, and he was quite a prominent figure in the school before, so it wasn't strange for the Dean to know him.

“It wasn't me?”

Zhao Xingchen quickly shook his head, a hint of embarrassment on his face.

Their Dean really thought too highly of him; with his meager strength, how could he possibly repel a beast tide?

“What exactly happened?”

The Dean was a bit bewildered and quickly asked.

“Dean, it was that young man who got first place in the college entrance exam.”

“It was precisely with his help that we repelled the beast tide.”

“He slaughtered both Divine-level Bosses.”

Zhao Xingchen took a deep breath, and the incredibly shocking scene reappeared in his mind.

“Do you take me for a fool?”

“That young man is at most Nine Revolutions; how could he possibly kill a Divine-level Boss?”

Hearing this, the Dean frowned, and his expression instantly turned much uglier.

“It's true; he's a Beast Master.”

Hearing this, Zhao Xingchen also felt a bit helpless.

Although the matter sounded somewhat fantastical, even incredible, it was indeed Su Bai's doing.

“Even if he's a Beast Master, he can't do it!”

“Even if a Beast Master can form an army alone, his tier is too low; he simply can't withstand a massive beast tide.”

A man immediately stepped forward, his tone full of doubt.

The power of a Beast Master was beyond doubt.

But even the most powerful Beast Master in the Meteor Empire couldn't destroy a Divine-level Boss by his own strength alone.

“His Beast Taming Space's tier has already reached the Ancestral Return stage.”

“Of course, I'm not entirely sure, but I can feel the terrifying aura within his Beast Taming Space; it should be about right.”

Zhao Xingchen took a deep breath and gently shook his head.

Ancestral Return stage?

How could this be possible?

The strongest Beast Master in their entire Meteor Empire only possessed one Totem Rank Beast Taming Space.

How many resources would it take to cultivate an Ancestral Return stage Beast Taming Space!

“Are you sure you didn't misfeel it?”

The Dean of Imperial Martial Academy erupted with an extremely terrifying aura, making everyone feel as if a heavy stone was pressing on their hearts.

That terrifying presence was already on par with a Divine-level Boss.

Once an Ancestral Return stage Beast Taming Space grew, it would become a Divine-level Boss.

A Beast Master with such a terrifying Beast Taming Space could completely form an army alone.

Most importantly, an Ancestral Return stage Beast Taming Space already possessed intelligence.

They could command other fierce beasts to serve them; this was the most terrifying aspect.

If it was true, then the strategic value of this Beast Master was simply too immense.

With him around, they wouldn't have to worry about beast tides attacking the city at all.

As long as the Ancestral Return stage Beast Taming Space's level increased, it would be a Divine-level Boss that obeyed commands, and could even counteract those wild Divine-level Bosses.

An Ancestral Return stage Beast Taming Space—that was the dream of how many Beast Masters!

“I should be sure.”

Zhao Xingchen also started to murmur inwardly.

He had never seen the Dean like this before.

“Where is he?”

The Dean asked impatiently.

“He should still be outside the city.”

“There were two Divine-level Bosses just now; after he killed one, the other Divine-level Boss prepared to escape, and that young man chased after it.”

Zhao Xingchen once again revealed an astonishing fact, making everyone's jaws drop.

“A Divine-level Boss running away?”

“Unheard of, unseen.”

“Today, my eyes have truly been opened; I must meet this young man.”

The powerhouse from the Imperial Capital heard this, a look of disbelief on his face, and quickly said.

And at this moment, Su Bai also happened to ride the Nine Nether Cloud Sparrow back from outside the city.

“Sir, I can't return your scroll to you, but do you think you can use this dagger?”

Su Bai recalled his Beast Taming Space, threw over a legendary dagger, and said softly.

“Ahem, I can use it, I can use it.”

Hearing this, the president of the Assassin's Guild coughed twice, his old face reddening.

He hadn't expected his scroll to exchange for such a treasure.

This was a legendary dagger!

“Dean, he is Su Bai, that Beast Master.”

Looking at the Dean in front of him, Zhao Xingchen quickly said.

“Stop your damn nonsense; can't I see that?”

The Dean glared at him and cursed loudly.

Zhao Xingchen awkwardly rubbed his nose, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

Their Dean's temper was just that volatile; he couldn't do anything about it, especially since the Dean was a Nine Revolutions Fire Element Archmage.

“Young man, can you summon your Beast Taming Space and let me see if it's truly at the Ancestral Return stage?”

The Dean walked up to Su Bai and spoke softly.

“Who are you?”

Su Bai looked at this Old guy and couldn't help but frown.

“This Old guy is Jiang Lin.”

“The Dean of Imperial Martial Academy.”

Jiang Lin stroked the beard on his chest, a hint of pride in his eyes.

“Don't know him.”

Su Bai waved his hand and said coldly.

Jiang Lin nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood upon hearing this.

“Su Bai, don't mind my teacher; his temper is just like that.”

“Can you summon your Beast Taming Space, the Ancestral Return stage one? Teacher just wants to take a look.”

Zhao Xingchen suppressed the laughter in his heart and quickly said.

It was the first time he had seen his teacher get stumped.

“Then which one do you want to see?”

Su Bai heard City Lord Zhao's words and finally decided to give him face, turning to look at the old man in front of him.

As these words came out, the entire scene fell silent.
