The Spirit Devouring Rat pretended to be invisible and hid in Yang Fan's pocket, not daring to come out.
Floret and Dahei raised their heads and curled their lips at the same time, casting a disdainful look at the Spirit Devouring Rat.
How dare the Spirit Devouring Rat compete with them with this level of skill?
Staying in Yang Fan's arms, the cat and dog curiously sized up Yang Fan. His face had become softer, his body had become stronger, and his scent had changed. If it weren't for the fact that his soul's aura had not changed, they wouldn't have recognized him as their master just by looking at his appearance.
However, no matter how much their master's appearance had changed, they would never mistake him for someone else.
After all, in their eyes, all humans looked the same. They had always relied on the waves of the soul to recognize people. This was the fundamental label of a person, and no one could impersonate them even if they wanted to.
"Master, where are we? The spiritual energy here is so dense. Is this a new paradise that master found?"
Floret greedily breathed in the surrounding air. He felt that the air here was made up of spiritual energy. Every time he breathed in, the beast energy in his body would increase by a bit.
"Papa!"
Dahei had obviously noticed this situation as well. The spiritual energy here was much denser than the spiritual energy in the space before they fell asleep. It was at least three times denser.
While asking Yang Fan this question, the cat and dog opened their mouths and breathed heavily without caring about their image.
Cultivating in such an environment with such dense spiritual energy, their cultivation speed had increased by more than three times. They were confident that as long as they were given a month, no, only half a month's time, they would be able to raise their cultivation to the level of a Fifth Grade Demon General!
"This is not a paradise. It's just a very ordinary valley in the wild."
Yang Fan shook his head. He was connected to the two pets' minds and he knew why Floret and Dahei had such a reaction.
Their consciousness seemed to have stopped at the time when the first spiritual energy tide broke out. At that time, spiritual energy had just recovered for less than a year. The density of spiritual energy was incomparable to more than a hundred years later.
According to An Sheng, the spiritual energy tide would break out once every ten years. Every time a spiritual energy tide broke out, it would undoubtedly bring an endless amount of spiritual energy to Earth. Therefore, the density of spiritual energy would increase bit by bit with each spiritual energy tide.
After more than 140 years of development, Earth had experienced at least 14 Spirit Force Tides since the first Spirit Force Tide outbreak. Now, the concentration of Qi and Spirit Force in the air above Earth had long exceeded that of the first Spirit Force Tide outbreak by several times.
Therefore, for Floret and Dahei who were able to reach the level of a fourth-rank beast general before the first spiritual energy tide broke out, the current spiritual energy environment was undoubtedly a paradise for them.
Yang Fan was sure that for these two, who were truly genius demon beasts in the truest sense of the word, coupled with the spiritual energy environment here that was three to four times stronger than before, the progress of this cat and dog's cultivation would definitely shock everyone.
"You two need to cultivate well. Fourth-rank beast generals are at the bottom of the food chain in this world. In the future, if you're not careful, you might end up as food on someone else's table."
Floret and Dahei were surprised to hear this.
They then turned their heads to look at their surroundings, especially Floret, who released his spiritual energy. Wherever it passed, all he could see were second-rank and third-rank beasts moving around. His heart trembled. Even third-rank beasts were running rampant. It seemed like this world was no longer the same as before.
That's right. Cultivating in a world with such a rich spiritual energy environment, even an ordinary pig should be able to easily cultivate to the third or fourth level after a long time, not to mention those talented geniuses of the Demon Clan, right?
Didn't you see that little mouse just now? Its talent was so weak that it couldn't even compare to Dahei and Dahei. However, it was still able to cultivate to the level of a fourth-rank beast general at such a young age. If this was in the past, it would be impossible for this to happen.
Therefore, perhaps their master wasn't trying to scare them. This world seemed to be really dangerous.
The cat and the dog nodded at the same time. They were geniuses of the beast race and were born to be at the top. No matter when, no matter where, they wouldn't fall to the bottom of the food chain.
Cultivate, cultivate immediately!
With such good cultivation conditions, if they couldn't break through to the king level in a short period of time, then they would be nothing but pigs!
The two beasts fiercely pushed forward. In such a dense spiritual energy environment, absorbing and refining the spiritual energy in the air was the best way to evolve.
The tiger king shrank its body, and its body shrank again. It turned into a kitten that was about the same size as a Spirit Devouring Rat. Then, it jumped into another pocket on Yang Fan's right side and closed its eyes to meditate. Its mouth breathed in and out, and the surrounding spiritual power was like the wind, swirling and gathering into its body.
Dahei did the same. It shrunk its body and dove into the pocket on Yang Fan's chest. It also began to focus on absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy. Its speed of absorption was even faster than the tiger king's.
Therefore, wherever Yang Fan went, the surroundings would move without wind. The countless spiritual energy in the air would enter his two pockets, causing the air to become unstable and turbulent.
In the other pocket, the Gold-Devouring Mouse hugged its head and trembled in fear.
Were these two beasts monsters? How could their affinity with spiritual energy be so high? Refining spiritual energy like a whale swallowing? Even some of the king level beasts it had seen in the past didn't have such a miraculous scene when cultivating!
Based on their cultivation speed, wouldn't becoming a king or a saint be just around the corner? Compared to them, the Spirit Devouring Mouse felt that it was just trash. It felt so inferior that it couldn't even raise its head.
Where in the world did Master find such a talented pet?
Generally speaking, wouldn't such a genius of the Demon Clan, who had the potential to become a King or a Sovereign, be strictly protected by those Great Demons from the moment he was born?
Why did Master still have the chance to take them in as beasts? And why did he split their spiritual energy and completely subdue them without any chance of backlash?
If the lords of the Demon Race were to find out about this, they would definitely not let this audacious human off!
The Gold-Devouring Mouse lowered its head and felt inferior. At the same time, it was worried about its future. It had offered a portion of its spiritual energy to its master. Once something happened to its master, its mouse life would also be lost.
How could this be? It was only twenty something years old and still had a long life ahead of it. It couldn't just sit and wait for death!
"This mouse also needs to work hard to cultivate and increase my strength. I can't be disliked by my master and I can't lose my mouse life!"
The Gold-Devouring Mouse unknowingly began to work hard to cultivate. With each breath, endless spiritual energy entered its body.
Although its cultivation speed could not even compare to a tenth of Floret and Dahei's, the little mouse that cherished its life was not willing to give up.
Feeling this situation, Yang Fan grinned. Floret and Dahei really were geniuses among the beasts. Just based on the speed at which they absorbed spiritual energy, it was enough for them to be kings among the beasts.
Un, that little mouse was also not bad. Although its innate talent was a bit lacking, at least it knew how to work hard.
Moreover, the strength of a Level Four Daemon General was actually not bad. At least in West Chu City, it was considered to be above average. It would be great to have it at home as a bodyguard in the future.
The little mouse that was working hard to cultivate had no idea that its master had already arranged a job for it in advance.
Looking at the rankings, in just a short while, Yang Fan had already been thrown out of the top five.
First place was still Chu Feiqu, with a score of 1800 points.
Second place was Xia Zixuan, with 10200 points.
Third place was Zhu Yuchen, with 950 points.
Fourth place was Hua Yue, with 830 points.
Fifth place was Duan Xiaorui, with 829 points.
Sixth place was Yang Fan, with 820 points.
… …
It seemed like everyone had not been idle during this period. Yang Fan looked at the time. It was already noon. The trial had already started for four hours.
"There are still five hours of trial time left. This is a rare opportunity. Next, I'll just focus on hunting Daemons!"
Yang Fan made up his mind. He spread out his Spiritual Energy and quickly determined a lair full of Level Two Daemons. He quickly flew over.
"You have used Choke on the Level Two Daemon Red-Tailed Butterfly. Choke successful. You have successfully killed a Level Two Daemon Red-Tailed Butterfly. Spiritual Willpower + 1, Vitality + 15, Skill Proficiency + 2."
"You have used Beginner Harvest on the corpse of the Level Two Daemon Red-Tailed Butterfly. Harvest successful. You have obtained a pair of colorful wings. Spiritual Willpower + 1, Skill Proficiency + 2."
"… …"
Yang Fan was completely focused. He killed Daemons as he leveled up his skill proficiency. He was not in a hurry and did not delay anything.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully using Beginner Harvest 50 times in a row. You have comprehended the essence of Harvest. Skill Proficiency has reached (100100). Beginner Harvest has leveled up to Intermediate Harvest. Spiritual Willpower + 5, Skill Proficiency + 10. Current Skill Proficiency (101000). "
"You have successfully comprehended Intermediate Harvest. You have comprehended the essence of Harvest. You have comprehended the accompanying skill of Intermediate Harvest — Harvest Space. Spiritual Willpower + 5, Harvest Space + 20."
Finally, Beginner Harvest had leveled up to Intermediate. His Spatial Backpack had also appeared as promised. In the future, he would not have to worry about not having a place to store some of the ingredients, spiritual herbs, and spiritual fruits that he collected.
Yang Fan was overjoyed. However, he did not stop. He continued to kill the Daemons around him.
After leveling up his Harvest to Intermediate, he finally did not have to bend over to loot the corpses. He only had to tell the Daemons that he was within a meter of them and they would automatically be collected into his Spatial Backpack. This greatly increased his hunting efficiency.
His trial points were also steadily increasing in an orderly manner. In less than half an hour, he had killed Flower Moon and stabilized his position in fourth place.
Of course, the rankings were basically useless to Yang Fan. Anyway, no matter what his ranking was, when the students began to fight each other for points in the end, all the students on the rankings would be working for him.
"That's why, no matter when, increasing my strength is the way to go!"
Yang Fan was very clear about what the real competition was at the end of this trial. Without enough strength, no matter how many points he earned in the trial, he would only be working for others in the end.
The basic trial resources were actually consolation prizes prepared by the school for the cannon fodder. Yang Fan did not care about them. What he wanted from the beginning to the end was the final reward for being the champion!
Not to mention the cultivation resources that were worth tens of millions of Federation coins in the past, just the Level 4 Spirit Medicine that Grandmaster Nan Nan had personally picked was said to be able to greatly increase the strength of a cultivator's Qi and blood. This made Yang Fan look forward to it.
Soon, when Yang Fan had killed the group of nearly 30 Red-Tailed Butterflies nearby, the Black Lion Hound that had been hiding in his shirt pocket suddenly stopped cultivating. It excitedly came out and stood on Yang Fan's shoulder, barking twice to please him. Its eyes were filled with an endless thirst for food.
Yang Fan raised his head and looked around. Then, he raised his hand and patted the foodie's head. "You can eat if you want, but be careful to restrain your aura. Otherwise, you'll scare the children around you."
Previously, a single Spirit Devouring Rat had caused a commotion in the city. Not to mention the alarms, Chen Guang and more than 20 supervising teachers on the airship had almost all rushed down.
If others were to discover that there was another Level 4 Demon General here, and that its strength was even more powerful than the Spirit Devouring Rat, Yang Fan was sure that old man Chen Guang would definitely go crazy.
If he made a mistake, he might not even be able to participate in the Contest Trial this time.
After all, this was just an ordinary trial for resources. The school probably still had to reprimand the students for their safety. At the very least, the school would definitely not let the students take the risk when they knew that they would be courting death.
"Papa!"
Dahei nodded excitedly. Wagging its tail, it flew toward the corpse of the Red-Tailed Butterfly closest to it.
A palm-sized puppy drilled its head into the body of the Red-Tailed Butterfly, which was the size of a container. It opened its big mouth and swallowed all the blood, flesh, and blood of the Red-Tailed Butterfly into Dahei's stomach.
However, the Red-Tailed Butterfly's appearance didn't change at all. Its huge body was still very beautiful. If one didn't get close enough, it would be impossible to discover that the Red-Tailed Butterfly's body was empty.
The whole process took less than two seconds.
After finishing off this one, Dahei pounced on the next one. The whole process was as smooth as flowing water. It was very skillful. None of the supervising teachers or the micro-surveillance cameras in the sky noticed anything unusual.
Seeing Dahei's actions, Yang Fan nodded slightly. When it came to eating, Dahei was indeed the most professional dog.
