After returning to school, Zhou Wen heard the students discussing the Companion Beasts on the rankings. Ordinary students suspected that they were Mythical Companion Beasts, but no one had seen a real Companion Beast.
Zhou Wen also went online to take a look. Many media outlets and individuals had taken pictures of the Companion Beasts displayed on the cube.
The Death God of the Underworld looked very strange. He was wearing a gray cloak with a dark blue light inside. He didn't have a physical body. He looked a bit like the legendary Death God, but he didn't have a sickle in his hand.
The Frost Giant was a giant with a dark blue body. Wherever he walked, ice would form on the ground.
The other Companion Beasts also had their own characteristics. The angels were holy, the pixies were beautiful, and the dragons looked about the same. However, it was obvious that the Companion Beasts on the rankings were extraordinary just from their auras.
Unfortunately, the display on the cube only had the images of the Companion Beasts. There was no display of their skills.
Zhou Wen didn't know what the ranking was for, so he quickly lost interest. He picked up his phone and continued grinding Torch Dragon. After this period of battle with Torch Dragon, Zhou Wen was gradually able to use his Speed and the crystal mirror to block Torch Dragon's Bright Torch Vision World.
Unfortunately, Sun Beast Companion Eggs were too difficult to drop. If he had two or more crystal mirrors, the success rate of killing Torch Dragon would be much higher.
During this period, Zhou Wen had thought of many solutions, such as using a large number of Companion Beasts to block him. However, it was useless. The blood-colored avatar and the Companion Beasts in front of him would be reflected in his vision.
Apart from the crystal mirror that could reflect, the other Companion Beasts were useless.
Using the crystal mirror to block the Torch Dragon's line of sight required perfect timing and positioning. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to block it.
The problem was that Torch Dragon's Bright Torch Vision World wasn't a skill that could only be used once. Therefore, Zhou Wen needed to block Bright Torch Vision World multiple times in battle. Otherwise, only death awaited him.
Demonic Neonate was on the blood-colored avatar's back, constantly trying to find Torch Dragon's flaws to attack it. There were a few times when she really found an opportunity to stab the ancient sword into Torch Dragon's body, but only half the blade had penetrated. It didn't pose much of a threat to Torch Dragon.
As for the blood-colored avatar, it failed to last until Demonic Neonate killed Torch Dragon before being killed by Torch Dragon.
According to Zhou Wen's calculations, he needed to last at least three hours in front of Torch Dragon before Demonic Neonate could kill it.
This was the best-case scenario. If the situation didn't go as smoothly as Zhou Wen had expected, it might take even longer.
In the next few hours, how could he completely block the Bright Torch Vision World was the most pressing problem for him to resolve. As long as he made a single mistake, he would die immediately, and all his efforts would be in vain.
After a bitter battle for an hour, the blood-colored avatar was once again killed by Torch Dragon's Bright Torch Vision World. This was the longest Zhou Wen had lasted.
"There can't be any mistakes, nor can there be the slightest error. In a high-intensity battle, in front of a powerful creature like the Torch Dragon, I have to ensure that the timing and position of the crystal mirror are accurate every time. I also have to judge the Torch Dragon's behavior. It's indeed a little too difficult."
After some thought, Zhou Wen realized that it was difficult for him to increase his success rate based on his judgment. After all, the other party was a Mythical creature stronger than him. It wasn't easy to judge its actions.
Since it's difficult to improve my judgment, I can only improve my speed and ability to adjust my position. I'll try my best to prevent Torch Dragon from seeing me.
Therefore, in the following battles, Zhou Wen consciously fused the Dragon Gate Flying Immortal Skill and Transcendent Flying Immortal with the fairy stance he had comprehended, hoping to raise his movement technique to another level.
This wasn't an easy task. Zhou Wen felt that there was a barrier between the fairy's stance and his movement technique. It was difficult to achieve perfection, and there would be problems when fusing them.
Zhou Wen wasn't a person who would give up because of difficulties. He continued researching and improving, especially the beautiful fairy's stance. Zhou Wen spent a lot of time studying it.
At the bureau's headquarters, there was a lot of information placed in front of Shen Yuchi. It was basically related to the black cube and the Companion Beasts on the ranking.
"Director-General, apart from the Six-Winged Guardian Dragon, the origins of the other Companion Beasts can be confirmed," Qiao Siyuan said.
Shen Yuchi nodded slightly. "Why did the families in the West and North districts let their Mythical pets enter the rankings? Have you investigated?"
In fact, there was no need to investigate. Shen Yuchi knew which families the Companion Beasts came from. The key was why these families wanted their Mythical Companion Beasts to appear in front of others.
One had to know that before this, every family hid their Mythical Companion Beasts, afraid that others would know how many Mythical Companion Beasts they had. However, this time, they had taken the initiative to expose a portion of them.
Although outsiders were already familiar with this portion, it still left them puzzled.
"According to our investigations, those families seem to have figured out some of the secrets of the black cube. They know that there are benefits to being on the rankings, so they did such a thing. However, this news hasn't been confirmed, so we don't know if it's true or not," Qiao Siyuan answered very conservatively.
"What kind of benefits?" Shen Yuchi understood what Qiao Siyuan meant. This news should have come from those families, but he couldn't guarantee that it wasn't a smokescreen they had deliberately released.
"From what they said, the Companion Beasts on the rankings might be fancied by terrifying existences in dimensional zones. There might be benefits, but they aren't sure if the news is true or not. They don't know what benefits there will be." Qiao Siyuan recounted the information he had obtained in detail.
After Shen Yuchi heard that, he remained silent.
"Director-General, should we do anything?" Qiao Siyuan asked.
"The Zhang, Xia, and Dugu families haven't taken action. The West and North districts are only tentatively pushing some Companion Beasts up. Now isn't the time for us to make a move. Let's wait and see for now."
After a pause, Shen Yuchi asked, "How's the progress with Wang Mingyuan's students?"
"It's not going well. Zhou Wen and Hui Haifeng are protected by their families. It's very difficult to bring them back. Jiang Yan and Zhong Ziya's whereabouts are erratic. We haven't been able to catch them after tracking them for so long. None of Wang Mingyuan's four students are simple characters. I think Wang Mingyuan might have taken in the four of them as students because he has an ulterior motive. It's not purely a coincidence. "
Qiao Siyuan paused for a moment before saying, "Furthermore, the six families don't seem to be paying much attention to this matter recently. For some reason, even the Cape family, who wanted to capture Zhou Wen the most, seems to have forgotten about this matter. They are all focused on the rankings."
"That's a little strange." Shen Yuchi pondered over the karma.
