135: This level 80 wild monster is so shabby!
Inside the Grand Stadium.
When Wang Chen’s image of him slicing an eighty-Rank wild monster, the Gale Wolf King, with a single sword appeared on the circular screen, all the spectators who witnessed this scene were dumbfounded.
“My goodness!”
“Am I seeing things? That’s an eighty-Rank wild monster, and he sliced it with one sword?”
“Since when did a sixty-five-Rank Giant-Beast Master become so powerful in close combat? It feels like the eighty-Rank Gale Wolf King is nothing more than a husky in front of Wang Chen!”
“…”
The spectators discussed animatedly, their faces filled with shock.
In the viewing areas of various universities, everyone except those from Blazing Dragon University, including all the contestants and leading teachers, had the same expression on their faces.
They could barely accept Wang Chen eliminating those contestants before.
After all, Blazing Dragon University is one of the four top universities, and it was understandable that Wang Chen possessed strength far exceeding his own Rank.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to enter Blazing Dragon University and become one of the top new students in Dragon Country this year.
But…
Slicing an eighty-Rank wild monster, the Gale Wolf King, with one sword?
That was simply unacceptable to them!
There was a full twenty-five-Rank difference between the two sides; no matter how much of a Genius, it was impossible to cross such a large Rank gap!
Moreover, if Wang Chen had defeated the Gale Wolf King after a bitter struggle, they might have grudgingly accepted it, but this was a complete Rolling, clearly showing they were not on the same level!
Estimating from his current state, Wang Chen would likely be able to fight even a ninety-Rank wild monster!
“Truly incredible!”
“I originally thought Wang Chen was the weakest member of Blazing Dragon University’s contesting team, but it turns out he’s the strongest!”
“Even Zhao Mingkong probably wouldn’t have such an easy time if he encountered the Gale Wolf King.”
Zhu Mingzhen, the leading teacher of Yanhua University, stroked his chin, his gaze somewhat obscure.
During the previous battle meeting, although he didn’t underestimate Wang Chen as much as the leading teachers of other universities, he hadn’t given him too much importance either.
The main tactics were still aimed at Zhou Wu and Zhao Li from Blazing Dragon University’s contesting team.
It turned out he had misjudged!
“In the upcoming official matches, when you encounter Wang Chen, all of you must heighten your vigilance; this kid is very strange!”
“And he hasn’t even summoned his Beast Pet yet; in the official arena battles, we might need to sacrifice two for one to deal with him!”
Zhu Mingzhen withdrew his gaze from the screen and turned to instruct the four team members behind him.
“Understood!”
Hearing his words, the four un-contesting students from Yanhua University all nodded with solemn expressions.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Gu Wanqing of Huaqing University was also instructing Lan Qianlong and the others.
“Now you know I was right, don’t you?”
“Put away that bit of underestimation in your hearts; don’t think that just because Wang Chen is low-Rank, he’s not your opponent.”
“You must know that he hasn’t even used his Beast Pet yet; that Dragon’s strength is definitely stronger than his own!”
Gu Wanqing said with a solemn tone.
Hearing him, the people from Huaqing University nodded, but at this moment, Lan Qianlong raised an objection.
“Teacher Gu, aren’t you making a mountain out of a molehill?”
“If I were on the field, I could instantly kill this eighty-Rank wild monster with one sword; Wang Chen merely heavily injured it, which is nothing at all!”
“If I encounter him, even if he summons all his Beast Pets, I have absolute confidence in winning!”
“After all, the Awakener characteristic of a Dragon Slayer is naturally a bane to the Dragon race!”
Lan Qianlong spoke with confidence, his eyes shining with spirit, completely disregarding Gu Wanqing’s words.
Hearing him, Gu Wanqing shook his head helplessly and did not continue to persuade him.
At this moment, there was no need to dampen Lan Qianlong’s Battle Intent too much.
Moreover…
Lan Qianlong was not wrong.
The special Awakener Dragon Slayer is basically no different from a natural enemy to the Dragon race.
Because the most important ability of a Divine Beast-Rank Dragon is Dragon’s Might, which can weaken the strength of creatures of lower Ranks in a percentage form.
According to Huaqing University’s research, the Dragon’s Might of a Divine Beast-Rank Dragon, from Transcendent-Rank all the way to the highest Universe-Rank, weakens strength by five to fifteen percent.
This is a terrifying value; for Awakeners of the same Rank, every tiny difference can tip the scales of victory.
The existence of Dragon’s Might naturally places Dragons in an advantageous position when facing other Awakeners.
However, the initial Awakener characteristic of a Dragon Slayer can directly immunize them from the effects of Dragon’s Might, and even provides damage amplification when a Dragon Slayer faces a Dragon.
So, although Lan Qianlong’s words were arrogant at this time, Gu Wanqing did not refute them, believing in his heart that what Lan Qianlong said was not bad.
However…
What he didn’t know at all was that Wang Chen’s Beast Pet, Ice Purity, was not a Divine Beast at all, but an Ancestral Divine Beast, the Ancient Overlord. Extremely Cold Dragon!
In front of such a terrifying creature, any common sense Gu Wanqing had encountered could not measure up.
...
...
“Roar!”
In the Secret Realm of the “Trial Grounds,” the Gale Wolf King looked at the human who suddenly appeared before it, its crimson eyes showing fear, letting out low, threatening roars.
“I told you long ago, we should each go our own way!”
“But you wouldn’t listen!”
Opposite him, looking at the fearful Gale Wolf King, Wang Chen shrugged indifferently.
“Things have come to this point, so I can only reluctantly send you on your way!”
Before he finished speaking, and before the Gale Wolf King could react, Wang Chen’s Gigantooth Longsword swung out rapidly.
Whoosh!
The longsword left trails of afterimages in the air, instantly slicing across the Gale Wolf King’s neck.
Thud!
A head as large as a millstone fell to the ground with a dull thud.
(Gained twenty points!)
“Tsk!”
“Sure enough, one can’t have any illusions about these wild monsters!”
Hearing the Secret Realm’s notification, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, his eyes a little helpless.
A majestic eighty-Rank wild monster, capable of soloing most contestants, but only providing twenty points…
It was simply too lacking in stature!
“Forget it, even a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat!”
Sighing, Wang Chen didn’t hesitate, moving his feet to leap onto the crown of a large tree.
Looking out, the area he had previously targeted, which had been making noise, was now completely silent.
Clearly, the two parties battling there earlier had either suffered defeat or both had retreated.
“How troublesome!”
“It seems I have to find the next target!”
Thinking silently to himself, Wang Chen looked around, beginning to search for his next target.
Soon.
He sensed a wave of magic fluctuations in the area to his front right.
