Inside the city gate, the Infernal Horse's head had already been shattered by the Golden-Eyed Monkey King's silver staff.
There were light burns all over the Golden-Eyed Monkey King's body, and his aura had also weakened significantly.
However, after killing the Infernal Horse, he still insisted on guarding the gap in the city gate with the human soldiers.
On top of the city wall, a Purple Flame Eagle had been slain by Su Qianyun's Moonlight Disc.
Unfortunately, the Purple Flame Eagle had self-combusted upon its death. Otherwise, she would have checked to see if there were any Beast Cores left.
City Lord Zheng Qianqiu was also a powerful cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage.
He, Xuanyuan Cheng, Su Qianyun, and Lu Zhan stood guard at different positions on the city wall, defending against the attacks of the mutant beasts in the air and protecting the spellcasters on top of the city wall to the greatest extent possible.
More than half of the mutant beasts on the ground had already been killed or injured by the relentless attacks of the spellcasters and the students. Their momentum had been thwarted, and they were no longer as powerful as they had been at the beginning of the beast tide.
The situation had already begun to stabilize. Next, it was time to harvest the remaining mutant beasts.
On the battlefield, An Lin cut open the stomach of the huge white bear and searched everywhere. Finally, he found a white Beast Core that exuded a frosty aura in its stomach.
"Hehe, I've finally collected three Beast Cores this time …" An Lin chuckled happily.
With three Beast Cores gathered, it was time to summon the Divine Dragon.
He also took out the two Spirit Beasts that had been frozen into ice sculptures from his storage ring.
Since the Beast Cores had already been collected, these bodies were no longer useful.
What he didn't notice was that a certain part of these Spirit Beasts' bodies gradually dimmed, like the fading of starlight.
Suddenly, the trumpeting of an elephant sounded from within the white mist.
A pillar of fire soared into the sky, the shockwave dispersing the white mist.
Xu Xiaolan was drenched in sweat. She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and walked toward An Lin.
Behind her, the huge elephant's body had already been charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
"What are you doing? Why are you so happy?"
Xu Xiaolan asked curiously when she saw An Lin happily squatting on the ground with three beads of different colors in his hand.
An Lin came to his senses and put the Beast Core into his storage ring. He said with a mysterious expression, "It's a secret! I'll tell you after this battle is over. "
Xu Xiaolan snorted, somewhat dissatisfied with An Lin's mysterious behavior.
She shook her head and continued to slash at the beasts around her with her longsword.
Soon, a giant black cockroach pounced at An Lin.
It swung its arms like scythes, forcibly bringing An Lin back into the fray.
Somewhere one and a half kilometers away from the battlefield, Sword Immortal Ling Xiao had slain a black-armored man with scales all over his body.
All around, the ground had been flattened, leaving only crisscrossing ravines.
This black-armored man was the one who had thrown the black spear, and he was a Soul Formation Intermediate Stage cultivator.
The Flying Sword God couldn't sense the aura of a soul beast from his body, so it was clear that he was from another foreign tribe.
Just as the man fell to the ground, an obscure light gradually dimmed from his body.
"Hmm … What's this?"
The Flying Sword God furrowed his brows slightly. His sword flashed, and the man's body was also sliced open.
He looked at the dimmed part of the body, but he didn't discover anything special.
The Flying Sword God looked around with a hint of unease in his heart. A thought surfaced in his mind.
So be it, I'll go back and clean up the remaining mutant beasts first.
He rose into the air on his sword and flew toward the nearby battlefield.
With the addition of the Flying Sword God, the mutant beasts were wiped out even more quickly.
Soon, all of the mutant beasts in the beast tide had been slain.
The setting sun dyed the sky a faint red, and the ground was stained with blood as the stench of blood permeated the air.
The corpses of more than two thousand mutant beasts were strewn all over the city. The surroundings were extremely quiet.
Dozens of students returned drenched in blood. Many of them were injured, but fortunately, none of them had died.
Immediately afterwards, over a thousand soldiers surged out of the city gates to deal with the mutant beasts' corpses.
Some of the mutant beasts' bodies were treasures, so the soldiers were naturally very skilled in dealing with these corpses.
At night.
Zheng Qianqiu once again held a banquet to reward the soldiers and generals.
The battle against the beast tide this time had been extremely fruitful, and there were very few casualties among the soldiers. This was all thanks to the participation of a large group of elite students. Their valiant fighting reduced the pressure on the defending soldiers by a lot.
After this beast tide, the number of mutant beasts was greatly reduced, and the soldiers defending the city could relax for a long time.
Because of this, the soldiers drank to their hearts' content. Even the students of Class 1 were in high spirits, raising their cups in celebration.
In this beast tide battle, a total of more than two thousand three hundred mutant beasts had been slain.
However, the Flying Sword God had only calculated a target of one thousand mutant beasts for the students.
After all, some of the mutant beasts had been slain by the soldiers of Ding 'an City, while others had been slain by him.
He could not allow the students to take advantage of these loopholes, so he had only calculated a rough estimate and distributed the target equally to each student.
Even so, the students were very satisfied.
To be able to complete so many additional targets in two hours was already a very good result for them.
While the people of Ding 'an City were celebrating.
In the depths of the Myriad Mountain Domain, on top of a scarlet palace.
A man with a pair of golden horns and dark red skin was kneeling on the ground with a respectful expression.
He was a Beast God of the Myriad Mountain Domain, a lofty existence among the mutant beasts.
This palace had originally been his temporary residence, but now he could only maintain this posture, not daring to show the slightest bit of disrespect to the man on the throne.
A devilishly handsome man dressed in black robes was sitting on the throne.
Starry trajectories flickered in his eyes, and a few stars gradually dimmed in the end.
The man closed his eyes slightly, and the black wings folded behind him trembled slightly.
"Fire Demon Beast God, the mission this time went quite smoothly, but you lost a few of your trusted subordinates …
"Take it, this is your reward."
A soft and charming voice sounded, and the black-robed man tossed a black lotus seed to the Beast God.
The Beast God caught the black lotus and bowed his head excitedly. "Thank you, Starry Night Monarch, for your reward!"
The Starry Night Monarch nodded and tore open space with both hands before stepping into it.
The Fire Demon Beast God heaved a sigh of relief as the Starry Night Monarch left. "F * ck, that scared me to death. This androgynous master is so hard to serve."
"Rip!"
The space was torn open again.
The Fire Demon Beast God shuddered as a chill enveloped its entire body.
Holy f * ck, he heard it?!
Is a loose tongue causing trouble?
No, how can I die like this?!
The Fire Demon Beast God was shocked and fearful, but it did not dare to move.
"Right, I suddenly remembered that I have something to remind you of. It's best to keep a low profile for now. Don't cause any trouble."
After saying this, the space shrank again.
The Fire Demon Beast God collapsed to the ground, cold sweat dripping from its body. "F * ck, that scared me to death. This isn't a man …"
He abruptly stopped mid-sentence.
No, even though the Starry Night Monarch can't hear me, I still have to keep a low profile.
In a secret space, the six Black Wing Generals were respectfully welcoming their monarch.
"It's been confirmed that the Evil-Slaying Sword is indeed in that cultivator's hands.
"And from the looks of it, his cultivation base is indeed at the Tenth Stage Dao Body …"
The Starry Night Monarch spoke indifferently.
The generals remained silent and waited for the Starry Night Monarch to continue.
"However, the more it is like this, the more terrifying it is!
"Normally, a cultivator of the Tenth Stage Dao Body would definitely die if they were surrounded by four Spirit Beasts.
"However, through some seemingly coincidental events, he achieved an inevitable victory …
"This cultivator is definitely pretending to be weak!"
The Starry Night Monarch continued her analysis with a solemn expression.
"After all, that cultivator killed the Dark Night Monarch before she even had the chance to use the Starless Sky of Slaughter Formation Disk.
"I risked my life and used the Star Manipulation Technique to manipulate Spirit Beasts to probe him. Perhaps he's already caught hold of me. A mighty figure who is well-versed in the dao of karma would be able to follow that thread to find my location.
"So …
"I've decided to return to the mobile castle and lie low for a while. The mission will be temporarily canceled!"
All the generals bowed their heads in unison. "The True Monarch is wise!"
The Starry Night Monarch was renowned for his fear of death. None of the generals were surprised that he dared to disobey the Dark Wing Emperor's orders and cancel the mission on his own.
There was a smug expression on the Starry Night Monarch's face. He was clearly very satisfied with his analysis.
He didn't want to follow in the Dark Night Monarch's footsteps. Anyone who wanted to do this mission could do it.
He would at most be punished for disobeying orders. His life was the most important, so it was worth it!
