68: This is a divine beast, and you despise it?

After the interlude at the registration office, Mu Wanying led Wang Chen and Situ Yu to the temporary dormitory for new students.

Compared to what they saw from the outside, the scenery inside the campus was even more stunning.

The towering buildings, along with people riding flying Beast Pets or using magical Dao tools, made them feel as if they had entered a wondrous world.

“What a wondrous place!” Following behind Mu Wanying, Wang Chen couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

The intertwining of fantasy and technology presented a breathtaking beauty.

“Our Blazing Dragon University was established in the 35th year of the Revival Era, and it has a history of over six hundred years.

Our Headmaster is a Nine Revolution expert with the title of Divine Venerable of War…”

Mu Wanying walked at the forefront, occasionally explaining things to Wang Chen and Situ Yu.

“The entrance you just came through is the main gate of the school. Besides that, the school has many other exits. You will learn about them once you officially begin your academy life.”

“The entire school area is divided into living quarters, teaching areas, experimental zones, trading zones, mission areas, and so on. You can check the specific locations using the wristband you just received.”

“Its functions are very powerful; it’s not just your identification.”

Wang Chen and Situ Yu, upon hearing this, curiously fiddled with the new silver wristbands on their wrists.

It was entirely silver-white, exuding a sense of technology. With a tap of a finger, a holographic screen would appear before their eyes.

It displayed a dazzling array of information, integrating modules for trading, navigation, querying, gaming, and more, with incredibly powerful performance.

“You have two days after reporting to familiarize yourselves with the school’s situation.”

“Two days later, the school will hold its annual ranking competition for you.”

“At that time, corresponding rewards and preferential treatment will be distributed based on your respective rankings.”

“One more thing you must remember: the most solid currency in the school is academic credits.”

“Aside from the trading zone connected to the outside world, whether it’s for exchanging resources or for daily necessities like food, clothing, and housing, you will need to spend academic credits.”

Mu Wanying reminded them solemnly.

“Teacher Mu, we just enrolled and have no academic credits. Won’t it be difficult to get around?”

Hearing the importance of academic credits, Situ Yu made a bitter face.

“Don’t worry!”

“When you registered for enrollment, the school already issued you a corresponding amount of academic credits based on your college entrance examination results. You can check it by opening your wristband.”

Mu Wanying waved her hand and explained with a smile.

“It’s true! I have a thousand academic credits now!”

Situ Yu swiped a few times on her wristband, her face showing surprise. Then, she looked at Wang Chen with curiosity.

“Quick, let me see, how many do you have?”

“About the same!”

Wang Chen nonchalantly put his hand behind his back, his expression very calm.

He had just glanced at it and saw that his academic credits amounted to ten thousand, which was ten times that of Situ Yu!

It’s better not to flaunt wealth; it’s best not to say it out loud and discourage this girl.

...

“Teacher Mu, are you looking for me for something today?”

After sending Situ Yu to her dormitory, Wang Chen couldn't help but ask the doubt in his heart.

Mu Wanying, as a first-class lecturer at Blazing Dragon University, a dignified 5th Rank expert, wouldn't be so idle.

Just happening to meet was merely an excuse.

“I thought you would hold back from asking.”

Mu Wanying smiled and led Wang Chen to a pavilion outside the dormitory area.

“I came specifically to give you a special school reward.”

As she spoke, she took out a creature exuding a mysterious aura and handed it over.

This creature was furry and looked like an unweaned puppy.

“Owooo… woof?”

As soon as it was in his hand, it bared its teeth at Wang Chen, letting out a low growl of threat from its throat.

However, as little Ice Purity looked on curiously, this little fellow immediately whimpered with its tail between its legs.

Its body trembled constantly, seemingly terrified to the extreme.

“This…”

Mu Wanying, who knew the identity of this creature, couldn't help but be astonished for a moment, and her gaze towards Ice Purity held shock.

This was a cub of a legendary Divine Beast, yet it was trembling in fear?

On the other side.

Wang Chen didn't notice Mu Wanying's surprised gaze. Upon seeing this small creature, he immediately used the “Bloodline Identification Technique” without hesitation.

A faint light flickered in his eyes, and the creature’s information appeared in his mind.

Howling Moon Silver Wolf (Legendary Divine Beast), Final Evolution State: Sky-Devouring Demonic Wolf (Universe-level Divine Beast)

After checking the information, Wang Chen’s eyes trembled slightly.

The Howling Moon Silver Wolf’s initial Rank was a legendary Divine Beast. This was definitely the highest-Rank Beast Pet he had ever seen, besides Ice Purity.

However, after the tremor, he sighed in his heart.

Although this Howling Moon Silver Wolf’s initial Rank was high, its ultimate growth limit only reached the Universe-level.

Its potential was just so-so.

For others, this was an incredibly precious treasure, but for him, it was somewhat of a white elephant.

With the Divine-Grade talent of Beast Pet Fusion, he could completely synthesize Beast Pets with higher potential.

For a moment, Wang Chen held the Howling Moon Silver Wolf in his arms, pondering how to deal with it.

Giving it up was impossible!

A legendary Divine Beast was priceless; he wouldn't be foolish enough to refuse it.

“Oh? It’s a female!”

Just then, Wang Chen’s eyes suddenly moved.

“Teacher Mu, is this giant beast mine now? Can I dispose of it as I wish?”

After thinking for a moment, he looked up and asked Mu Wanying.

“Mmm!”

Mu Wanying frowned and nodded, her expression somewhat strange.

For some reason, she seemed to feel that Wang Chen was somewhat disdainful of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf.

However, she immediately dismissed her strange thought.

What a joke!

This was a legendary Divine Beast, a powerful Beast Pet that countless people yearned for.

How could anyone dislike it!!

“This Howling Moon Silver Wolf is the cub of the Dean’s Beast Pet. The Dean said that if you have any questions during its cultivation, you can go to him for guidance.”

Thinking of the Dean’s instructions, Mu Wanying spoke solemnly at this moment.

Being favored by a Rank 8 expert, even she couldn't help but feel shocked.

However…

“Then, Teacher Mu, please thank the Dean for me.”

Upon hearing her words, Wang Chen just nodded faintly, without much expression.

On one hand, he wasn't clear about the Dean’s strength; on the other hand, it was because he had already thought of a place for the Howling Moon Silver Wolf.

Since he wasn’t going to form a contract with it anyway, this opportunity for guidance was useless to him.

???

Seeing this, Mu Wanying’s face showed a bewildered expression.

Did you not hear the implied meaning in my words?

For him to offer guidance means the Dean intends to take you as his student!

A student of a Rank 8 expert is enough to make countless people go crazy.

Why are you so calm?

Mu Wanying was greatly shocked at this moment!
