Each of the ten saint beasts of the Cloudmist Ridge possessed fighting prowess comparable to the Ten Great Master Teachers of the Master Teacher Academy!
What kind of person did a student of Elder Mi find to make nine sacred beasts go out together?
Could it be that the other elders have been called over?
Something was amiss. If that was the case, the Half-Saint and Nascent Saint cultivators outside would have long reported the matter to the higher-ups.
"Mo Zhu, what the hell are you doing?"
The Golden Beartiger Beast narrowed its eyes.
"Me? I've been here the whole time, but I don't know … "
Elder Mi was about to cry.
He was just a bystander, someone who had no idea what Principal Zhang was up to …
"You don't know? I advise you not to play any tricks with me. The fact that the Cloudmist Ridge was able to remain standing for so many years under the watchful eyes of the Master Teacher Academy shows that it isn't as simple as it seems … "
Seeing that the other party was indeed clueless, the Golden Beartiger Beast threatened him once more.
"You spirit beasts are scattered all over the Cloudmist Ridge, so how could you possibly be unaware of the matter?"
Elder Mi said.
The Golden Beartiger Beast nodded.
This was exactly what it was confused about.
If there really was a problem, those kings would have definitely told it to let the other beasts out, which meant that they had the ability to solve it.
"There's no need to worry about that for the time being. As long as we don't allow that Elder Mi to leave, the Master Teacher Academy will surely find a way to resolve this issue."
After making some calculations, the Golden Beartiger Beast was just about to say something when the Scarlet Blaze Lion, who was the first to leave, walked in.
Following which, the Steelback Bear, the Tiger Head Beast, the Steelfang Wolf, and the other nine monarchs walked in as well. At the very center of the group was a young man with his head hung low.
It was Elder Mi's student who had escaped.
"Boss, we've caught this guy …"
With a few steps, the Scarlet Blaze Lion snorted.
"What's going on? Get all of you out? "
The Golden Beartiger Beast looked at Zhang Xuan doubtfully.
"It's like this …"
The Tiger Head Beast walked up and pointed its thick claws at Zhang Xuan. "I don't know what kind of means this fellow used, but he managed to find a few formidable master teachers to fight with us outside..."
"Master teacher?" The Golden Beartiger Beast blinked.
"That's right!" The Metalfang Wolf walked over as well.
"What master teacher? Are you one of the ten great elders of the academy? "The Golden Beartiger Beast continued to ask.
"I don't think so. We don't know them. Their faces are very unfamiliar. How about this, I'll take out their corpses and show them to you …"
The Ironback Bear snorted and stopped less than three meters away from the other party.
Before he could finish his words, the Saint Beasts roared and attacked simultaneously.
Rumble!
The Scarlet Blaze Lion, Tiger Head Beast, Steelfang Wolf, and Steelback Bear were the strongest of the four saint beasts in the Cloudmist Ridge. When they made a move simultaneously, their combined might was reminiscent of a landslide.
Before the Golden Beartiger Beast could react, it was struck by four claws.
Bang!
"What are you doing …"
With a miserable shriek, the Bear-Tiger Beast was sent flying. His back smashed into several stalactites, and he vomited mouthfuls of blood.
These sacred beasts had been with him for more than a thousand years and trusted each other. Who would have thought that they would suddenly attack him?
Moreover, he was so ruthless!
The Golden Beartiger Beast was severely injured in an instant, and its internal organs suffered heavy injuries that would take a long time to recover.
"What the hell happened …"
Crashing to the ground, the Golden Beartiger Beast panted heavily. Feeling that he had lost most of his strength, its eyes reddened, and it roared furiously.
"Master!"
Paying no heed to its roar, the Scarlet Blaze Lion, Steelback Bear, and the other beasts turned around to look at Zhang Xuan.
"Un."
Placing his hands behind his back, he walked out amidst the entourage of beasts, reminiscent of a lofty monarch. "You're right, you're right," Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
"Nine of the Ten Great Kings of the Cloudmist Ridge have submitted to me … Golden Beartiger Beast, there's only one path before you. Either you become my tamed beast, or … die!"
"Submit?"
The Golden Beartiger Beast narrowed his eyes in disbelief.
As saint beasts, they had their own pride. How could they possibly submit to a human, not to mention … a mere Chrysalis realm cultivator?
Not only was it bewildered, Elder Mi was also in a frenzy.
He had thought that Principal Zhang was really here to negotiate with them, and he had even prepared himself to be insulted by them. Who could have thought that in just two hours, he would actually tame nine of the Ten Great Kings …
From the looks of it, it seemed like the spirit beasts outside had also become his tamed beasts …
He had known that the new principal's beast taming ability was formidable, but … wasn't this a little too incredible?
At this rate, wouldn't all of the saint beasts and spirit beasts on the Master Teacher Continent become his tamed beast?
Obey your commands?
While Elder Mi was still in a daze, the Scarlet Blaze Lion and the others also turned to look at their previous boss, the strongest king of the Cloudmist Ridge.
"Submit! Our master is a man of great capability. Submitting to him will definitely be much better than being trapped in the Cloudmist Ridge!"
"Indeed. We have been trapped in the Cloudmist Ridge for so many years already. Even though this place has become our territory, and even the Master Teacher Academy is wary of it, it's no different from being locked in a cage. In any case, I've had enough of it! "
"If you don't submit, you'll die. Stop hesitating …"
…
Now that it had become Zhang Xuan's tamed beast, it no longer had the dignity of a king. The other saint beasts immediately tried to console it.
"You want me to submit to you? Dream on! "
Seeing that all of his subordinates had already betrayed him, the Golden Beartiger Beast's face twisted in savagery. "Haven't you all been wondering why so much Earth Vein Spirit Essence can be gathered here? Today, let me tell you … "
With a roar, the Golden Beartiger Beast struggled to its feet. With a shake of its body, it leaped into the dried up pond not far away and spoke slowly.
"Esteemed emperor, please grant me the strength to eradicate the traitors of the Beast Tribe …"
This time, it wasn't speaking the human language but the Ancient Beast Language.
"Emperor?"
Hearing the Ancient Beast Language, Zhang Xuan frowned as an ominous premonition surfaced in his heart.
He had been perplexed as to how rare the Earth Vein Spirit Essence was. Even with the unique terrain of the Cloudmist Ridge, it should have been impossible for it to gather so much of it. However, from the looks of it now, it seemed like things weren't as simple as he thought.
More importantly, there were simply too many spirit beasts and saint beasts here.
Survival of the fittest. Regardless of the location, there was a limit to the number of experts.
For so many spirit beasts to possess such a high cultivation realm, it would be a lie to say that it wasn't perplexing.
Elder Mi's face warped in astonishment.
As a 6-star pinnacle beast tamer, even though he wasn't proficient in the Ancient Beast Language, he was still able to understand a little of it. It was clear that the other party was using the Ancient Beast Language to carry out some kind of summoning ritual.
If the summoning succeeded, something huge would surely happen.
"Principal Zhang …"
Anxious, Elder Mi quickly turned to Zhang Xuan.
"Calm down, this might be related to the disappearance of Elder Wu Yangzi that you spoke of previously."
Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up.
While taming the Scarlet Blaze Lion and the other beasts, he had also asked them a few questions. These fellows could only be considered as rising stars of the younger generation, and they had only risen to prominence in the past thousand years. As such, they weren't too clear about their past affairs.
Based on their description, all of the secrets lay with the Golden Beartiger Beast.
This was also the reason why he was known as the unchallenged number one expert of the Cloudmist Ridge.
Hong long long!
Amidst their conversation, concentrated spiritual energy suddenly gushed out from the depths of the cavern, and it felt as if the world was collapsing, leaving everyone breathless.
The lake that was originally filled with spirit essence seemed to have turned into a massive altar at this moment. The Golden Beartiger Beast seemed to be offering something to draw the powerful pressure over.
"How powerful …"
Feeling the immense pressure, Elder Mi's face paled. He couldn't help but retreat several steps, but he gritted his teeth and forcefully endured it.
It was simply too powerful. Even with his Saint 1-dan pinnacle cultivation, he found it hard to withstand the pressure.
"Principal Zhang …"
If even someone of his strength was unable to withstand the pressure, what could Principal Zhang do?
Zhang Xuan hurriedly turned his gaze forward, only to see Principal Zhang standing with his back ramrod straight. His eyebrows shot up, and he stared coldly ahead of him, as if he didn't feel the pressure at all.
Elder Mi's body jolted in shock.
Even he, the Scarlet Blaze Lion, and the other kings of the Cloudmist Ridge were lying on the ground. Yet, Principal Zhang was completely fine. How was this possible?
Hong long long!
Before Zhang Xuan could recover from his shock, the spiritual energy in the air suddenly materialized into an illusory figure of a Bluehorn Dragon Beast, reminiscent of mist, floating in the air. It felt as if it could crush one's soul.
"My descendant, why are you summoning me?"
A majestic voice sounded. It was still speaking the Ancient Beast Language, but it felt as if it had transcended time itself.
"This is … pure Ancient Beast Language!"
Elder Mi's body turned cold.
The beast language imitated by the later generations was very similar in pronunciation, but it didn't have the vicissitudes of history. It lacked a kind of stability that came from ancient times.
The voice that Zhang Xuan heard was heavy and steady. Just the intonation of the voice alone was enough to make countless spirit beasts and saint beasts submit to it. With a single glance, Zhang Xuan could tell that this illusory figure was definitely a supreme figure who had survived from the ancient times.
Turning around, Zhang Xuan saw the Scarlet Blaze Lion, Tiger Head Beast, and the other kings lying on the ground trembling in fear. They didn't even have the slightest strength to retaliate.
Under the suppression of the bloodline of saint beasts, there was nothing they could do.
Zhang Xuan turned to look at Principal Zhang once more, intending to help the other party escape. However, the latter was still standing on the spot, staring at the silhouette with a deep frown on his forehead.
"Your Majesty, I beseech you to grant me the strength to slay these traitors!"
The Golden Beartiger Beast shouted in the Ancient Beast Language.
"What are you offering?"
The silhouette asked calmly.
"I am offering this 6-star pinnacle master teacher of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, the head of the Beast Tamer School, to nourish you with his blood …"
The Golden Beartiger Beast roared.
"6-star pinnacle master teacher?" the silhouette shook his head. "That's not enough!"
"And this student of his …"
The Golden Beartiger Beast pointed at Zhang Xuan. After saying those words, he suddenly felt that the latter might be a little too weak. "Your Majesty, as long as you grant me the strength, I will immediately mobilize my army to hunt down more master teachers …"
"Deal. If you go back on your words, you should know the consequences!"
Hong long!
As the silhouette spoke calmly, a surge of concentrated energy flowed into the Golden Beartiger Beast, and the latter's aura immediately began to rise.
