"No way, Liang Xiaole, aren't you exaggerating a little too much? Two people who aren't even Saints actually have the ability to kill over seventy magical beasts in a single day? How is that possible?" A young man holding a spear said in disbelief.
"Yeah, that's too much. Let alone a Saint, I don't think even a Great Saint would be able to kill over seventy Class 1 Magical Beasts in a single day. They'd probably die of exhaustion halfway through. I don't believe that their Saint Force is limitless." The one who spoke was a young girl with a longbow. Her voice was very pleasant to the ears.
At this moment, the young man who had invited Jianchen and Tie Ta to join their group suddenly asked, "Liang Xiaole, do you know who those two are? When did such powerful people appear in our Kargath Academy? They're not even Saints yet, but they can easily kill magical beasts of the first order." As soon as he finished speaking, the young man seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed slightly.
Liang Xiaole's face was filled with pride as if he had done something glorious. He said leisurely, "I can tell you. Actually, the big guy who exchanged axes with you is the famous Tie Ta in the academy. He's the direct disciple of the headmaster. The other person is the new king who won first place in this year's freshmen competition, Changyang Shōten."
Everyone exclaimed in unison. Then, they immediately began to talk about it.
"It's actually those two freaks. No wonder they're so powerful."
"Isn't that so? I heard that Tie Ta fought young master Cheng to a draw in the library …"
"That Changyang Shōten defeated Saint Ka Diyun. That battle was very intense. I watched it from below. Changyang Shōten is indeed very powerful."
"I heard that outside the library, Luo Jian, who was an intermediate Saint, couldn't do anything to Changyang Shōten without using a Saint Weapon. In the end, he was even forced to take out his Saint Weapon."
… …
Without Liang Xiaole as a burden, Jianchen and Tie Ta's speed increased a lot. They quickly entered the third zone.
When they first entered the third zone, it didn't seem any different from the second zone. However, as the two continued to advance, they gradually discovered the viciousness of the third zone. Compared to here, the second zone could be called heaven.
In the third region, there were many kinds of poisonous insects in the jungle. Moreover, there were many swamps on the ground. If one was not careful, one would sink deep into them. Fortunately, these swamps seemed to be man-made and were not deep. Otherwise, if one accidentally fell into them, one would definitely die if there was no one to help them.
Perhaps because of the environment, the third zone didn't have as many weeds as the second zone. It was very wide.
Jian Chen and Tie Ta moved through the forest carefully. They were now covered in a layer of powder. The powder was a mixture of several types of plants, which could effectively prevent the bites of mosquitoes in the area.
"Changyang Shōten, you seem to be very familiar with the forest. Have you stayed here before? Why are you even more powerful than me?" Tie Ta looked at the layer of green powder on him and asked.
Jian Chen chuckled, "I've read a lot of books in the library, and there are quite a few records about this. That's why I know quite a bit about surviving in the forest."
"Oh, no wonder." Tie Ta seemed to have understood.
At this moment, Jianchen's eyes narrowed slightly. He immediately became stern. At the same time, the ground began to tremble slightly as if an earthquake had occurred.
However, Tie Ta was already on guard when Jianchen spoke. He already held the axe that was on his shoulder with both hands.
Jianchen stared to the left with a rather stern gaze. He said, "Tie Ta, be careful. I saw that we encountered a large magical beast this time."
"Yes!" Tie Ta nodded firmly. He immediately became stern. After all, the magical beasts they encountered in the third zone were not Class 1 magical beasts. They were Class 2 magical beasts that were much stronger than Class 1 magical beasts. They were no weaker than Great Saints.
Even though the attacks of the magical beasts here were not very powerful, they still did not dare to underestimate them with their current strength.
Under the nervous gazes of the two, a huge magical beast finally appeared before their eyes. This magical beast was covered in fiery red fur. It was extremely large, three meters tall and five meters long. Two snow-white fangs protruded from its mouth. The fangs were as thick as a fist and a meter long, and the tip of the fangs were extremely thin. It was obvious that the fangs possessed a very strong penetrative force. If it weren't for the fact that this magical beast's nose was extremely short, Jian Chen would have thought that he had encountered an animal that only existed in his previous world — an elephant. However, in terms of size, this magical beast was a full size larger than an elephant.
"Be careful, Tie Ta. This is a fire cloud beast with relatively strong defense among Class 2 magical beasts. It can spit fire from its mouth. It's very difficult to deal with." Jianchen immediately said the name of the magical beast. Having read a large number of books in the library, he already knew many magical beasts. He also had a better understanding of the specialties of those magical beasts.
Tie Ta nodded slightly and did not answer. He stared at the fire cloud beast vigilantly. He was ready to attack at any time.
"Roar!" The huge fire cloud beast roared at the sky. It slowly approached Jianchen and Tie Ta with its thick hooves. The ground shook violently with every step the fire cloud beast took.
Jianchen's eyes flashed. He immediately called out, "I'll attack it from the front. Tie Ta, you go around to its back and attack." With that, Jianchen pushed off the ground and leapt high into the air. He directly landed on the fire cloud beast's head.
As soon as Jianchen moved, Tie Ta left where he was as well. He circled around the fire cloud beast and arrived behind it.
Jianchen called out as he stood on the fire cloud beast's head. Saint Force quickly gathered on the metal rod in his hand before he suddenly stabbed it at the fire cloud beast's head.
"Ding!" With a metallic sound, Jianchen's rod only left a shallow mark on the fire cloud beast's head. It was actually unable to break through its defenses.
Jianchen's face changed slightly. Although he already knew that the fire cloud beast's defenses were very powerful, he never thought that it would be so abnormal. His full-powered attack was actually unable to break through its defenses.
"Ha!" At the same time, Tie Ta leapt high into the air as well. He swung his axe at the fire cloud beast's butt as hard as he could, but his situation was not much better than Jianchen's. Tie Ta's axe only managed to scratch the skin on the fire cloud beast's butt. It did not cause any damage to it at all.
Their attacks had clearly angered the fire cloud beast. It roared at the sky before quickly swinging its head, sending Jianchen flying far away.
Flying in the air, Jian Chen quickly adjusted his body's condition. His feet tapped lightly on the trees on both sides to slow down the force of his fall. Finally, he landed firmly on a branch.
After sending Jianchen flying, the fire cloud beast suddenly turned around and opened its mouth to bite at Tie Ta.
Tie Ta leapt up and dodged the fire cloud beast's huge mouth. At the same time, he viciously swung his axe at the fire cloud beast's long teeth.
"Ding!" Following the sound of metal clashing, the Fire Cloud Beast's teeth were broken by Tie Ta's axe. However, after breaking the Fire Cloud Beast's teeth, five nicks appeared on Tie Ta's axe.
"Roar!" The fire cloud beast was enraged. It stomped its four hooves and charged at Tie Ta.
A vicious light flashed through Tie Ta's eyes. He did not dodge at all when he saw the fire cloud beast charging at him. He tossed away the axe in his hand and used his hands to grab the two snow-white tusks of the fire cloud beast. Immediately, the two of them were in a stalemate.
At that moment, Tie Ta seemed to have become a beast. He growled as he grabbed the fire cloud beast's tusks tightly. He was actually competing with it in terms of strength.
Even though Tie Ta was born with great strength, he was just too small compared to the fire cloud beast. As a result, even though he was quite strong, he was still pushed back by the fire cloud beast. His feet had already left two deep marks in the ground.
"Argh!" A sliver of madness flashed through Tie Ta's eyes. He roared at the sky as the veins on his arms bulged. His arms rapidly swelled in an instant, and he suddenly exerted force with his arms.
"Bang!" With a crisp sound, the snow-white fangs of the Fire Cloud Beast were broken by Tie Ta. The fire cloud beast cried out in agony from the intense pain.
Tie Ta seemed to have become furious as well. He did not show any mercy. He held the tusks in his hand and used the tip of the tusks to stab the fire cloud beast's head.
The other end of the tusks was extremely sharp, no weaker than a sharp weapon. Even so, the tusks only managed to pierce the fire cloud beast's skin, causing blood to spurt out.
Seeing how Tie Ta had actually injured it with his fangs, the fire cloud beast's eyes immediately became bloodshot. It opened its gaping mouth at Tie Ta and roared furiously. A huge fire snake shot out from the fire cloud beast, burning towards Tie Ta. Immediately, the temperature in the surroundings began to rise at an unbelievable rate.
Tie Ta's face changed drastically when he sensed the shocking heatwave from the fire snake. He fled in a hurry, but even so, he was unable to completely escape the fire snake's attack. His entire body was engulfed in flames.
Jianchen paled in fright when he saw Tie Ta completely engulfed in flames. He immediately snapped off a lush branch beside him and kicked off the branch forcefully. He shot towards Tie Ta like a cannonball.
"Roar!" The fire cloud beast let out a furious roar and walked with heavy steps towards Tie Ta who was engulfed in flames. It then opened its bloody mouth again and bit towards Tie Ta. It was not afraid of the flames on Tie Ta's body at all.
Just as the fire cloud beast's mouth was about to reach Tie Ta, Jianchen also arrived in front of Tie Ta. He waved his hands and used the lush branch in his hand to wrap around Tie Ta. Before the fire cloud beast's mouth could reach him, he forcefully pulled Tie Ta away and quickly retreated over ten meters away from the fire cloud beast.
Jianchen agilely removed the branch wrapped around Tie Ta. Then, he ignored the scorching flames on Tie Ta's body and reached his hands into the flames, tearing apart the wolf skin on Tie Ta's body.
The flames on Tie Ta's body were almost all caused by the fur on the wolf skin, so after removing the wolf skin, Tie Ta immediately escaped from the flames, revealing the tattered school uniform underneath.
